Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 412: The Border between the Two Song Dynasties
Beiwulin, Zailai Town, East Street.

Two young men were sitting at a roadside noodle stall, devouring their noodles.

The Yangchun noodles were plain and the soup was watery, but the two of them tasted like they were eating delicacies from land and sea, and they looked like two starving ghosts, dumbfounded the diners and passers-by around them.

When the noodle stall owner saw this, he thought he had accidentally put too much minced meat in the soup. He felt secretly regretful and decided to charge them a penny more.

"How strange!"

"It was clearly a bowl of plain plain noodles, no different from what I usually eat, but today it tasted especially delicious."

The young man on the left is about twenty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, honest and simple, dressed simply, and his words and actions reveal the innocence of a newcomer to the world.

"If they had been hungry for two days like us, their eating habits would not be much better than ours."

The young man on the right looks a little younger, but he has sharp eyebrows, sharp bones, a handsome demeanor, and an air of pride on his face like a plum blossom in the snow. If it weren't for his old clothes that have been washed out to the point of starch, one would have thought he was a young man from an aristocratic family.

"Brother Yang, I heard you say before that you are from the Southern Song Dynasty, right?"

"I wonder why you're going north this time?"

Although Wang Xiaoshi ate quickly, he remembered to chew each bite carefully before swallowing it.

The most amazing thing is that he can eat and talk at the same time, and his speech is clearly articulated. I don’t know how many bowls of noodles he has eaten to develop this skill.

"There's no reason. I just go wherever I want to go."

By this time, Yang Guo had already finished his three-cent bowl of plain noodles, not even a sip of soup was left.

He put down his bowl and chopsticks and smiled heartily.

After eating, even my voice was stronger than before.

"Is this so..."

Wang Xiaoshi raised his head and drank the noodle soup, then said: "I thought you really came here for the three wishes of the Northern Song Emperor as they said..."

"What Northern Song Emperor? What a bullshit wish?!"

Yang Guo snorted coldly and said sarcastically: "I, Yang Guo, am a real man, I stand tall and upright. If I want something, I will naturally use my own hands to get it. Why would I care about others' charity?"

Wang Xiaoshi was stunned and looked around quickly. He found that the people around him were not paying attention to their conversation, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Yang Guo chuckled and said, “Brother Shitou, why are you so nervous?”

"This is the border between the two Song dynasties. No matter which emperor I curse, no one will jump out and punch me."

In the Southern Wulin, the Suzaku Dynasty is the only dominant dynasty, in the Eastern Wulin, the Li Tang Dynasty dominates the rest, but the situation in the Northern Wulin is different from the former two.

There is a north-south confrontation here, and those in power are all descendants of the Zhao Song royal family who unified the country in the past.

In fact, fifty years ago, there was no distinction between the "Northern Song Dynasty" and the "Southern Song Dynasty" in Beiwulin, there was only one "Zhao Song Dynasty".

However, by the time the news reached the previous emperor, the tribes originally scattered around Beiwulin, including the Mongolian, Liao, Jin, Xia and other forces, had actually formed a joint army.

Most of these alien races came from the present-day West Wulin territory, and a small number came from the present-day East Wulin.

It was just that due to the division of China hundreds of years ago, the foreigners could not return to their homeland, so they took root in the territory of Beiwulin, multiplied and prospered, and gradually formed a considerable group.

At that time, in order to seize the Zhao Song dynasty, the allied forces of different races broke the law and fought like tigers and wolves, defeating the Han army step by step, losing cities, and finally even reaching the capital Bianliang.

Seeing the country in dire straits, a legendary figure stood up.

He is Xiao Qiu Shui.

Xiao Qiu Shui joined forces with Yan Kuangtu, gathered heroes from both the black and white worlds, and formed an army of tens of thousands of volunteers to fight against foreign invaders, and finally succeeded in recovering the lost territory.

However, during this period, the Zhao Song royal family and court officials, due to their own ambitions, established a new monarch.

After the rebellion of the foreign races was quelled and the group of heroes disbanded, everyone suddenly discovered that the Northern Wulin had become a situation of "two emperors coexisting".

At that time, the heroes had been fighting for a long time and the Northern Wulin was in urgent need of recuperation. Neither the martial arts world nor the imperial court wanted to start another war, so the two emperors decided to divide the territory and govern each other in peace.

There is a saying that the area of ​​Beiwulin is divided into four prefectures and twenty-four routes.

The Four Prefectures refer to the four capitals, namely Tokyo Kaifeng Prefecture, Xijing Henan Prefecture, Nanjing Yingtian Prefecture, and Beijing Daming Prefecture; the twenty-four routes are the divisions of administrative regions, and there are transfer envoys who are responsible for managing wealth and supervision.

However, although the names are the same, the locations of these four capitals are different from those in the Song Dynasty in history. They are not crowded together, but are far apart.

After the two emperors divided the country, each side occupied two prefectures and twelve roads.

From then on, the north was called the "Northern Song Dynasty" and the south was called the "Southern Song Dynasty".

Therefore, among the people, there were titles such as "Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty" and "Emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty".

If calculated according to the genealogy of the Zhao royal family, these two emperors should be considered distant cousins.

A few days ago, the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty issued an order that shocked the entire martial arts world:

Whoever can kill Guan Qi within three months will have his three wishes fulfilled!

When you are in the world, even if you are not seeking fame, wealth or power, there are always one or two things you want to do but cannot do, and things you want but cannot get.

This bargaining chip promised by the Emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty immediately attracted many people from the martial arts world to go north, wanting to find and kill Guan Qi, and use his head to exchange for their own wealth and glory.

"Brother Yang is indeed different!"

"You are the first friend I, Wang Xiaoshi, made after I came down the mountain. That's great!"

Seeing that Yang Guo not only did not lose himself because of the "three wishes" like other martial artists, but his words revealed a rare ambition, Wang Xiaoshi immediately admired him greatly.

Just as the two were about to pay the bill and leave, they suddenly heard a loud shouting and killing coming from the end of the long street.

Siji Town, as the border between the two Song dynasties, is a notoriously chaotic area.

It is said that in this place, if you walk ten steps, you will meet a martial artist.

All the factions in the underworld have built branches nearby, resulting in constant quarrels and fighting in the town every day. Although it is extremely dangerous, it is also very lively.

Although Wang Xiaoshi and Yang Guo had heard about the situation here before, it was their first time to officially enter the martial arts world, and their first time to come to Four Seasons Town. They had never seen it with their own eyes, so they were still a little curious.

Hearing the voice, they both looked up at the same time, their eyes met, and they both saw through each other's thoughts. They couldn't help but smile in tacit understanding, and then looked up together.

Looking out into the distance, before he could see who the fighters were, he saw an axe.

The axe was sharpened very sharply by its owner, and the warm sunlight above head shone on it, but it gave people a cold feeling.

This cold axe flew towards them from a distance, making a whooshing sound as it broke through the air.

Bang-dang——!
The axe plunged heavily into the center of the road, creating a three-foot-long crack, splashing up several scattered stones and producing fleeting sparks.

Most of the half-meter-wide axe was swallowed by the ground.

Yang Guo and Wang Xiaoshi were shocked when they saw this and took action at the same time.

It was not that they were frightened by the situation in front of them, but because the axe landed less than one meter away from the two of them, and the flying stones were flying rapidly towards their faces!
The flying stone was swift and fierce, and it seemed to be more skilled than those assassins who had learned hidden weapons for three years. This showed how much strength the person who threw the flying axe just now used.

Yang Guo kept his buttocks still and slightly retreated his upper body, easily avoiding the flying stone.

Wang Xiaoshi fell to the side and lifted up the bowl in front of him, saving the bowl's life.

After the flying stones, Wang Xiaoshi stood up again. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Yang Guo's smile.

"It's a pity..."

"Although you were quick-witted and helped the noodle stall owner save a bowl, he is now going to lose a table."

what? !

Wang Xiaoshi looked down and saw that there was a small hole where he had placed the bowl.

The small stone was embedded in the wooden table. Wang Xiaoshi felt that it was laughing at him, saying that he was being too clever.

We are all stones, why are you laughing at me?

Two streams of white air spurted out of Wang Xiaoshi's nostrils.

I feel upset and want to hit someone!
