Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 19: Incident, collusion with rebels?
Although Shen Ping'an had many wine recipes that were beneficial to warriors in his mind, in order to brew them, in addition to the tools and winemaking methods, he also needed the corresponding medicinal materials.

Especially for some special medicinal wines that are intended to improve one's constitution or skills, the medicinal materials required are even more special.

"It seems that I can only pay more attention later."

As the thought came to his mind, Shen Ping'an quickly glanced at the list of medicinal herbs in front of him.

Then he entered the room where the medicinal herbs were stored and checked their quality.

Watching Shen Pingan busying around with these medicinal herbs, Shen Qingshan beside him couldn't help but ask: "Cousin, when did you learn medicine?"

Without even looking up, Shen Pingan said, "In the past few years, I've been reading the medical books of my clan while practicing. The more I read, the more I'll learn."

Shen Qingshan did not doubt what Shen Ping'an said.

When practicing martial arts, one must first learn about the meridians and acupoints of the human body.

Otherwise, if you don’t even know the meridians and acupoints, how can you practice internal energy?

Therefore, every warrior in the world knows a little bit about medicine.

Although the Shen family is only a third-rate force, it is also a family with a history of hundreds of years.

Some people in the clan have studied medicine, and there are quite a few medical books in the family collection.

In addition to practicing for the past ten years, Shen Ping'an's greatest pastime was to look through the books in his clan's collection.

In Shen Qingshan's opinion, considering Shen Ping'an's talent, it is not strange for him to teach himself medicine.

After eliminating some herbs that had problems with processing or were of inferior quality, Shen Ping'an asked the two to take these herbs outside the yard to dry, while he dealt with other things in the house.

Two hours later, Shen Pingan breathed a sigh of relief after resealing the wine jar that had just contained the medicine and putting the remaining medicine into the system backpack.

With master-level winemaking skills, Shen Pingan has reached an extremely high level of understanding of pharmacology and the medicinal properties of drugs.

If we only talk about pharmacology or the medicinal properties of drugs, even the so-called miracle doctors such as Ping Yizhi, the famous murderous doctor, and Hu Qingniu, the medical immortal of Butterfly Valley, can hardly compare with Shen Ping'an.

Therefore, Shen Ping'an's speed in preparing and processing these medicines is much faster than others.

If it were any other doctor, two hours would be a huge task for him to prepare all the purchased medicines, not to mention mixing the medicines to be mixed into the wine.

He walked out of the room and looked at Shen Qingshan who was practicing with his eyes closed in the yard.

As Shen Ping'an coughed lightly, Shen Qingshan stopped practicing after hearing the sound.

"Where's Feiyan?"

"Miss Zhang came half an hour ago. Seeing that you, cousin, hadn't come out yet, I asked Feiyan to accompany Miss Zhang to stroll around the garden first. Do you want me to go and call them over now?"

Shen Pingan said slowly: "When you are a guest at a door, you shouldn't ask them to run around. Let's go to the garden!"

Shen Qingshan nodded, then picked up the long sword on the stone table and quickly followed Shen Pingan.

In order to prevent Shen Ping from being disturbed less, Shen Tiannan had the small courtyard where he was located specially built next to the garden. Once he walked out of the courtyard, he entered the garden.

At this time, Zhang Sanniang was sitting in the pavilion in the garden, graceful and beautiful.

Outside the pavilion, Qu Feiyan was using a set of palm techniques with his palms flipping.

However, the palm techniques clearly did not belong to the Shen family, and Qu Feiyan had never used them before.

Looking at Qu Feiyan's obviously unfamiliar movements and Zhang Sanniang reciting the mantras of the mental method in the pavilion nearby, Shen Ping'an and Shen Qingshan had no idea what was going on.

He immediately stopped and stood aside quietly.

A moment later, as Zhang Sanniang repeated the mantra of the mental method several times and Shen Ping'an successfully watched a complete set of moves from Qu Feiyan, a system prompt message quietly popped up in front of Shen Ping'an.

[Ding, Xuan-level, top-grade palm technique detected. Do you want to learn it?]

"Ok?"

Looking at the prompt message in front of him, Shen Pingan raised his eyebrows slightly, then he thought about it and chose "study".

[Ding, the host's comprehension level has been detected to have reached "One in a Million". The mastery level of this martial art has automatically been raised to the "Round and Smooth" level.]

At the same time, Shen Pingan's consciousness was pulled out again, and he appeared on the top of a mountain where a sea of ​​clouds rolled.

From the misty mountain top, clouds quickly gathered and formed a figure that moved quickly to perform martial arts.

The moves used were exactly the same as those used by Qu Feiyan.

It was just like when he was practicing the "Heaven-Cutting Sword Technique" before.

As the figure on the top of the mountain practiced the palm technique, Shen Pingan's own understanding of this palm technique continued to improve.

It was not until Shen Ping'an had mastered this Xuan-level top-grade palm technique to the level of "perfection and satisfaction" that the strange noise in his head disappeared.

When he opened his eyes, a hint of surprise flashed in Shen Ping'an's eyes.

"The system has this function?"

Shen Ping'an's comprehension has reached the level of "one in a million".

Under normal circumstances, as long as you know the mental formula and moves of Zhang Sanniang's palm technique, it would not be difficult to learn it directly.

However, this learning is limited to reaching the level of "getting a glimpse of the basics" or even "comprehensive understanding".

If he puts in some effort, Shen Ping'an will be able to master this palm technique to the level of "smooth and perfect" or even "superb" within a month.

But it is absolutely impossible to achieve the level of "perfect and satisfactory" in such a short period of time as it is now.

If the system is used according to this capability, even if it is a heavenly-level martial art, Shen Pingan will be able to quickly master it when he first encounters it.

This is very comfortable when it is hung up.

Shen Pingan felt a little better after accidentally discovering another additional capability of the system.

Seeing that Qu Feiyan stopped practicing, Shen Pingan took Shen Qingshan and continued their journey.

As Shen Ping'an and Shen Qingshan approached, Zhang Sanniang, who was originally in the pavilion, felt something and slowly turned her head.

When her eyes fell on Shen Ping'an, a smile appeared on Zhang Sanniang's beautiful face.

After slowly approaching, Qu Feiyan, who was still thinking about the palm technique, immediately came forward.

Zhang Sanniang also stood up.

After entering the pavilion, Shen Ping'an first raised his hand to rub Qu Feiyan's head, then looked at Zhang Sanniang.

"I haven't seen her for a while, but I never thought that Feiyan could actually coax a palm technique out of Miss Zhang."

Zhang Sanniang's expression remained gentle. After glancing at the pouting Qu Feiyan, she spoke in a voice as gentle as orchid: "I saw Feiyan was clever and had nothing better to do. I happened to have accidentally acquired the 'Smoke Rose Palm' technique many years ago. It wasn't very advanced, so I taught it to her."

"What's more, Master Shen is a master of the sword. Feiyan will naturally receive his guidance if she follows him. It's only a matter of time before she enters the sword path. Don't blame Sanniang for her superficial martial arts. It's enough to distract Feiyan."

Shen Pingan said softly, "Miss Zhang, you're joking! After all, this is a top-grade Xuan-level martial art. Even many third-rate forces may not have it. How can it be called superficial?"

Zhang Sanniang glanced at Shen Pingan with some surprise: "Master Shen also knows about this "Smoke Rose Palm"?"

Shen Pingan shook his head and said honestly: "This is the first time I've seen it today, but after watching it for a while, I have some ideas."

Hearing this, Zhang Sanniang suddenly became very interested.

Then he looked at Shen Ping'an and said, "In that case, I wonder if Mr. Shen would be interested in sparring with Sanniang using the Smoke and Rose Palm?"

Facing Zhang Sanniang's sudden proposal of a competition, Shen Pingan raised his eyebrows. But the next second, Shen Pingan nodded and said, "Okay."

It was just a casual mention, but I never thought that Shen Ping'an would actually agree to it.

Zhang Sanniang's eyes lit up at this.

Then, as if worried that Shen Ping'an would go back on his word, Zhang Sanniang lightly tapped her toes, and her body swung up from the air like a feather until she landed three feet away, taking a stance.

"Please advise."

Seeing Zhang Sanniang's belligerent look, Shen Ping'an couldn't help but smile.

But to be honest, in all these years, Shen Ping'an has never fought with a genius warrior like Zhang Sanniang.

Shen Ping'an was also curious about the power of a top-grade Xuan-level martial art in the hands of a genius like Zhang Sanniang.

Immediately, Shen Pingan took a few steps to the side and raised one hand.

It turned out to be the same opening move as Zhang Sanniang's, using the "Smoke and Rose Palm" technique.

Zhang Sanniang's internal Qi was circulating, but the fluctuations of the Qi coming from her body were only at the first level of Guiyuan Realm. It was obvious that she was deliberately suppressing her own cultivation.

"Mr. Shen, be careful."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Sanniang moved gracefully, and the three-meter distance disappeared in an instant.

When the figure appeared in front of Shen Ping'an, Zhang Sanniang's white hands swayed gently in the air like smoke and vines and patted Shen Ping'an.

As the true energy surrounds, palm shadows fly everywhere, making it difficult to predict the reality.

In the eyes of Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan, it seemed as if more than a dozen hands were slapping Shen Pingan at the same time.

Seeing this, Shen Pingan remained calm and raised his palm to greet him.

However, Shen Ping'an's seemingly casual palm strike happened to hit Zhang Sanniang's hand when it collided with the dozen or so palm shadows in front of him.

"Ok?"

Upon discovering this, Zhang Sanniang felt a flash of surprise.

The next moment, Zhang Sanniang changed her moves and used both palms to strike towards Shen Ping'an's shoulders.

The palm movement was light and swift, as ethereal and elusive as smoke.

Shen Ping'an's palms vibrated with true energy, and he also flipped his hands and slapped Zhang Sanniang's two soft hands.

The four palms faced each other, and the palm wind spread out with the two palms as the center, blowing the hair of the two people.

Immediately afterwards, the two of them crossed each other's bodies and their moves changed one after another.

In just a hundred breaths, they had already clashed nearly a hundred times.

Moreover, the feeling given by the palm techniques is like smoke swaying in the wind, agile and elegant.

As he maneuvered, he was sometimes like a shadow, sometimes like smoke, and the changes in his palm techniques were dizzying.

A moment later, as their palms faced each other again, Shen Pingan suddenly retreated.

And Zhang Sanniang did not continue to pursue at this moment.

But when she looked at Shen Ping'an opposite her, Zhang Sanniang's face was filled with horror that was hard to conceal.

After a long while, Zhang Sanniang, whose shock had faded somewhat, sighed sincerely, "I never thought that the young master, after only watching for a while, could master the Smoke and Rose Palm to such a level of perfection. This talent truly astonishes me."

In the fight just now, Zhang Sanniang was sure that the "Smoke and Rose Palm" displayed by Shen Pingan had definitely reached the level of "perfect and perfect".

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to keep up with me in terms of moves.

You know, it took Zhang Sanniang nearly a month to practice the "Smoke and Rose Palm" to the level of "perfect and smooth".

But what about Shen Pingan? He just watched from the side for a while.

In Zhang Sanniang's opinion, Shen Ping'an was able to enter the third realm of swordsmanship and master the perfect sword intent at such a young age. His talent was unquestionable.

But Zhang Sanniang didn't expect that Shen Ping'an's talent would be so high.

It's really a bit horrifying.

"A smooth and satisfying level?"

Qu Feiyan, who was standing by, also exclaimed in surprise when she heard what Zhang Sanniang said.

Only Shen Qingshan looked calm, obviously he was not surprised.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for achieving +500 points.]

At the same time, a system prompt message suddenly popped up in front of Shen Pingan.

After taking a quick glance at the system prompt that popped up in front of him, Shen Pingan slowly said, "It was just a moment of luck. Miss Zhang's 'Smoke and Rose Palm' has probably reached the realm of 'superb perfection'. If she continues to use only the 'Smoke and Rose Palm', I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it."

Zhang Sanniang shook her head and said, "How can the way of martial arts be judged by luck? Master Shen is too modest."

As she spoke, Zhang Sanniang couldn't help but sigh softly in her heart.

Zhang Sanniang admires Shen Ping'an.

At the same time, like Yan Shisan, after learning about Shen Ping'an's sword skills, Zhang Sanniang also regarded Shen Ping'an as a target to catch up with in swordsmanship.

However, after witnessing Shen Ping'an's terrifying talent today, Zhang Sanniang couldn't help but begin to doubt whether she could really catch up with the person in front of her?
However, just as Zhang Sanniang's mood was disturbed by the talent displayed by Shen Ping'an, a member of the Shen family suddenly rushed into the garden using lightness skills.

When he saw Shen Pingan in the garden, the Shen family member showed joy on his face, and quickly turned around and rushed towards Shen Pingan, and said anxiously: "Pingan, it's not good."

Looking at the person coming, Shen Qingshan was stunned for a moment and asked: "Uncle Chongshan, what's wrong?"

Shen Zhongshan said anxiously, "Something happened. Earlier, when the master was explaining things in the weapons shop, people from the East Factory broke into the blacksmith shop and took the master and some other members of the clan away."

I heard that something happened to Shen Tiannan, not to mention Shen Qingshan.

Even Shen Ping'an's expression suddenly changed.

Shen Qingshan stepped forward and grabbed Shen Zhongshan's shoulders: "How could Dad be captured by the East Factory for no reason?"

"It is said that the reason is that our weapons shop is colluding with the rebels."

"Bullshit, where did our Shen family go to collude with the rebels? Is it someone from the Wang family who is behind this?"

Seeing Shen Qingshan's excitement, Shen Pingan raised his hand and pressed Shen Qingshan's shoulder and asked, "Uncle Chongshan, how long ago was Second Uncle arrested?"

Shen Zhongshan spoke eloquently, "Just an incense stick ago. The elders told me to come find you the first thing they did after they found out."

"Cousin, Dad has been arrested, what should we do?"

Shen Ping'an's thoughts raced through his mind, and after a few breaths, he exhaled.

"Fei Yan, go get my sword."

Hearing Shen Ping'an's words, Qu Feiyan immediately rushed towards the courtyard.

In less than ten breaths, he was back in the garden.

In his hand, he was holding Shen Ping'an's sword.
