Chapter 134: Secret Path
When I returned to the Song residence, I heard Song's father and mother sighing in the yard.
"Dad, Mom, what's the matter?" Song Changming asked.
"The government is going from house to house to recruit soldiers and food. Alas, when will this day end?" Song's father shook his head and said.
"Just now, the soldiers came to knock on our door and asked you and Ping'an to join the army." Song's mother said worriedly.
When it comes to joining the army, the two old people's bad memories in the past come to mind again.
Song Changming knew that they were thinking of their two deceased brothers who joined the army in their early years and never came back.
"Changming, you two must not go." Song's mother took Song Changming's hand and said.
Even if it was Song Ping'an, they had developed feelings for each other, and she couldn't bear to let Song Ping'an go to the battlefield.
"Don't worry, mother, I will handle this matter." Song Changming comforted.
Although he lost his official position, his relationship with the government was not severed. Even if he did not ask Liu Dingsheng for help, he had many ways to let the government quietly erase him and Song Ping'an from the conscription list.
At most, it would only cost some money.
After hearing Song Changming's assurance, Song's father and mother felt relieved.
"The government is recruiting so much, it seems that there will be another war." Song's father sighed.
"It should be." Song Changming nodded.
In the past two years, the main force of the court went to quell the two uprising armies in the north and south, and there was less suppression on the four princes who split the land and became kings.
Therefore, the seven counties under the rule of the fifth prince have been relatively peaceful in the past two years. They have been recuperating and resting to restore the vitality that was previously lost due to the war.
Now that more than two years have passed, in the court, without anyone dragging their feet, the court has finally demonstrated its strong ruling power.
Hundreds of thousands of troops set out, fighting from north to south, sweeping all the way, and completely crushing the two new forces that had only been in rebellion for two years.
If it weren't for the four kings, the speed of suppressing the rebels could have been much faster, and it wouldn't have taken two years at all.
At present, both the powerful Wumeng and the powerful Utopia are now almost disappearing, and most of them have been killed by the court.
Only a few people left saw that the situation was hopeless, and they broke up in time and fled to an unknown place.
The court did not bother much, and after a little reorganization, it would continue to send troops to fight the four kings to the death.
When fighting the four kings, the court lost its cohesion again. God knows how many bureaucrats secretly supported one of the four kings and pretended to obey the new emperor.
No matter how dissatisfied the new emperor was, it would be useless.
He had just ascended the throne for less than two years, and his prestige and ruling power were far inferior to those of the old emperor.
When will he be able to truly unify the world and bring peace and prosperity to the world? Only then will he be able to sit firmly on the throne and start to build his own era.
"Alas, it has only been two years since we have been stable, and it has become uneasy again." Song's father said helplessly.
He wanted to live a comfortable life in his later years, but it seemed that he could not do it.
The chaos and wars outside made people upset.
He just hoped that he would not leave his hometown and wander around at an old age.
As the few people were talking, Song Ping'an on the side suddenly looked at the water tank with surprise.
"Master, it's out! It's out!"
When Song's father heard this, he felt a chill all over his body.
He stopped talking and put his worries behind him. He walked quickly to the side of the water tank and saw one of the green water silkworms that had just shed its skin. He was overjoyed.
The four neat blue lines on the body of this green water silkworm showed its uniqueness.
Four lines, after many years, they finally raised a four-line green water silkworm.
When the four-patterned green water silkworm appeared, Song's father felt incomparable satisfaction and joy.
"Good! Great!"
On the market, the four-patterned green water silkworm is already a very rare finished product.
And there are very few people who can raise four-patterned green water silkworms.
Therefore, Song's father has achieved an achievement that only very few people can do.
"Congratulations, Dad." Song Changming also laughed.
He was also very happy.
On the one hand, he was happy for his father's success in raising silkworms, and on the other hand, he was happy for his own plan to make money.
The successful breeding of a four-patterned green water silkworm means that more three-patterned and four-patterned green water silkworms will be born, which will drive his entire silkworm breeding industry to a higher level.
In the past, the green water silkworm could bring him a profit of about two to three hundred silver coins per month.
Now that there are four-patterned green water silkworms, this profit amount will most likely double in the near future!
How can this not be joyful?
"There are very few four-patterned green water silkworms in the silkworm market in Donglai County now. The price of one silkworm is at least fifty silver coins. If we only sell four or five four-patterned green water silkworms every month, it will be enough to cover our current monthly total income!"
Song's father calculated the accounts, and he was happier and happier.
When he was engaged in the blacksmith forging business, his monthly income was not even a fraction of what it is now during the most prosperous period.
I didn't expect that he could reach a new peak in his career in his later years. Now, when he goes to the silkworm market, everyone calls him Master Song, which makes him very useful and has a sense of accomplishment.
I never thought that the breeding method that Song Changming accidentally got back then could bring so much wealth to their Song family.
Of course, this is also due to Song's father's research and efforts year after year, which can bring such a return.
The breeding method only provides a research direction, and persistence is another key to success.
"Ping'an, this four-striped green silkworm must be carefully taken care of, and there must not be any mistakes." Song's father repeatedly warned with concern.
"Don't worry, sir, I will keep a close eye on it!" Song Ping'an said seriously.
"Especially keep an eye on the big yellow and big white, don't let them dig this water tank again."
The next day.
Song Changming brought a pot of jade wine and found Liang Chuanshan.
The conscription of Houli Street was all under the charge of him, the director of the district.
After a drink, his and Song Ping'an's names were quietly crossed out from the conscription list.
Anyway, there were so many people to be conscripted, and the lack of two people would not attract the attention of the superiors.
Ten days later, Liu Dingsheng sent a message.
His mist gold had been sold, and the Han gold obtained, according to his request, had been exchanged for three sets of extreme body refining skills for him, plus two hundred-year-old mountain ginseng.
After getting the three sets of extreme body refining skills that he had been thinking about, Song Changming immediately studied them, not wanting to delay his own body refining progress.
Perhaps it was because he had practiced the same physical training before, or it was because his spiritual attribute of enlightenment, which had increased to 11 points, helped.
He did not feel much effort in this study.
As if it was a natural process, in just two days, he added these three sets of extreme physical training to his panel, showing the corresponding realm experience bar.
Since his physical strength in all aspects had been tempered to above the sixth realm before, he started practicing the new physical training from the experience value of the sixth mirror.
"Four extreme physical training!" After adapting to the new physical training, Song Changming felt good about himself.
The road ahead has been paved, and it is no suspense for him to practice to the extreme perfection, it is just a matter of time.
Not long after he mastered the new physical training, he was called to Liu's house again.
"There is one good news and one bad news about the treasure map." Liu Dingsheng said.
Without waiting for Song Changming to choose which one to listen to, he told them all directly.
"The good news is that the treasure map has been successfully analyzed and translated, and it lived up to expectations."
"What about the bad news?" Song Changming vaguely guessed the result, but still waited for Liu Dingsheng's answer.
"The bad news is that the treasure map seems to record a special secret technique, not a martial arts secret." Liu Dingsheng replied directly.
"Secret technique?" Song Changming's heart sank.
Although he was mentally prepared when he heard the bad news, he still felt a sense of disappointment now that he confirmed that it was not a martial arts secret technique.
Listening to Liu Dingsheng's tone, this secret technique is obviously not as valuable as a real martial arts secret technique.
As expected, rumors in the martial arts world cannot be fully believed.
Back then, this treasure map was so true that it was said to be a martial arts secret technique, which attracted countless martial arts fans to scramble for it.
Now it seems that the rumor is just a specious and false conjecture.
"You don't have to be too discouraged. Some secret techniques are more exquisite and powerful than the real martial arts, and may even save your life at a critical moment.
Changming, don't underestimate the secret technique," Liu Dingsheng comforted.
"Thank you, senior. I will think about this secret technique after I go back." Song Changming quickly calmed down and nodded.
The secret technique is the secret technique. It was an accidental thing. I didn't get the martial arts this time. I can get it in the future.
Although martial arts are rare and precious, there are other ways and methods. As long as you are strong enough, you can always find an opportunity.
With the translated and analyzed version of the treasure map, Song Changming returned home and began to observe and study.
The secret technique is different from the orthodox martial arts. It belongs to the side door and is usually created by individuals and is not circulated.
In the inherent impression, the secret technique is usually sinister, cruel, radical and extreme.
It often has the side effect of hurting the enemy by 1,000 but hurting oneself by 800, so it is abandoned by most warriors, who think it is not worth spending time to study and master such a small path.
Song Changming's understanding of the secret art is limited to this, which is not much different from other warriors.
When pondering this secret art, he has some prejudice and curiosity.
"Blood Explosion Secret Art" Song Changming saw the name of this secret art.
Just hearing the name is very radical.
