Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist

Chapter 308: Chapter 128: The Dafeng State Governor! Bloodline Response!_2

Now that he had to hide in the military camp for a year and a half, Su Changkong decided to focus on refining his forging skills—a man can never have too many talents!

After the first day’s work was finished, everyone left the Forging Room, dragging their weary bodies, while Su Changkong also pretended to be slightly exhausted.

Liu Zhuang couldn’t resist asking, “Tailai, have you practiced martial arts? You have such great stamina.”

Today, the first day, Su Changkong alone did the work of two or three people, his stamina surpassing that of these veteran blacksmiths who had been working for many years.

Su Changkong said with a simple smile, “I’ve been strong since I was a child. I learned a few moves for self-defense in the village from my master. Usually two or three people can’t even get close to me!”

Su Changkong didn’t hide the fact that he had practiced martial arts, as he would be practicing the Five Animal Frolics every morning and evening. This could also explain why his physical strength was so impressive.

“Haha, in these times, it’s indeed necessary to know some skills when walking outside. I participate in the military training of the Dafeng Iron Cavalry every few days to learn some military boxing.”

And Liu Zhuang didn’t think much of it.

Within the military camp, not to mention the blacksmiths who did the heavy lifting, even the cooks who boiled water and prepared meals knew a few moves of boxing and kicking. It wasn’t strange at all. Practicing martial arts was not only meant for fighting but also for strengthening the body.

A healthy physique is the foundation of everything!

After a busy day, Su Changkong finished his meal, practiced the Five Animal Frolics, and when dusk fell, he returned to his room to rest.

Life in the military camp was indeed monotonous. Even the logistical personnel like Su Changkong had to strictly follow the schedule for going to work, finishing work, and resting.

Although Su Changkong was not quite used to it, he would be there for at most a year and a half, which he found bearable.

Su Changkong settled into a highly regimented routine, practicing his martial arts in the morning and evening, aside from forging weapons and armor in the Forging Room.

This led to a rapid increase in Su Changkong’s proficiency in forging. His potential value had now soared to 33 points, not just slightly but significantly higher than when he was at Black Iron Manor, and he was learning forging skills at a much faster pace than before.

Additionally, at the Casting Department, it wasn’t just about making swords and knives, but also armor, crossbows, and other weapons. Forging a variety of weapons and equipment clearly allowed for much faster improvement in forging skills!

“I really picked up a treasure!”

Geng Zheng, the supervisor, would often come to inspect the Forging Room, and every time he saw Su Changkong focused on forging weapons, his eyes would light up.

Although Su Changkong was young, his forging skills were hard to match by nearly a thousand blacksmiths in the entire military camp—a clear testament to being the progeny of a blacksmith family.

“Tailai, is there anything you want?”

Geng Zheng couldn’t help but take the initiative to ask Su Changkong if he wanted something, as such a talent naturally deserved corresponding treatment.

Su Changkong didn’t actually want anything much, but he knew it would seem strange if he worked hard without making any demands, so he replied somewhat sheepishly, “I… I would like to ask for more wages, so when I return home in the future, I can marry a couple more wives.”

“No problem, starting next month, your salary will increase to 30 silver taels per month! Keep up the good work, and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to climb higher! Here, people with skills can stand out!”

Upon hearing this, Geng Zheng laughed heartily, patted Su Changkong’s shoulder, and on the spot decided to raise his salary to the level of a first-rate Forging Master at the Casting Department.

“Many thanks to Lord Geng!” Su Changkong was overwhelmed with excitement, greatly encouraged.

Returning to his workstation, Su Changkong continued to forge weapons, but his eyes flickered ever so slightly, “Here they come!”

Su Changkong felt the restlessness on the Wood Snake Seal on his hand, and he understood that people from the Mu Family were getting closer!

The Wood Snake Seal was a tracking method used by the Mu Family to chase after those who had killed their descendants, and at the same time, those who were marked by the Wood Snake Seal would also have a certain sense of the Mu Family descendants who share the same bloodline.

The sudden restlessness of the Wood Snake Seal indicated that someone from the Mu Family was approaching the military camp!

However, on the surface, Su Changkong’s expression remained unchanged, suppressing the Wood Snake Seal with his True Qi while continuing to forge the weapon in front of him.

Just then, outside the military camp, two figures appeared; one old, one middle-aged.

Though referred to as middle-aged, the person was actually over forty. He had handsome features and wore a white robe but had narrow eyes that gave him a cold and sinister feeling.

The green-robed elder, on the other hand, was hunched and gray-haired, with several teeth missing, but for some reason, he exuded an eerie vibe that even made the soldiers guarding the camp feel a fearful reluctance to make eye contact!

“The one who killed Jin… is hiding in the Dafeng Iron Cavalry’s camp! He certainly has it all planned out!” hissed the man in white through gritted teeth.

The man in white was none other than Mu Jin’s father, Mu Xin. As descendants of a great family with connected bloodlines, Mu Jin’s death triggered a response from the Wood Snake Seal. Mu Xin was first shocked and distressed, then reported the matter to the family, swearing to make the murderer pay a most terrible price!

The green-robed elder’s dull eyes remained calm: “This murderer has profound cultivation, using True Qi to suppress the Wood Snake Seal and blending into the heavily populated military camp in Dafeng State City, indeed a clever move…”

If the murderer had fled to the deep mountains and forests, or to small villages, they would eventually find the culprit and eradicate them completely, leaving no living thing in that area.

But the fact that the perpetrator was hiding in the military camp of Dafeng State City meant that even the Mu Family couldn’t resort to their brutal and ferocious methods to find the murderer.
