Chapter 224: Farmer's Traces
The wind gets stronger in autumn.
As the summer heat dissipated, living in Dong'a City became more and more comfortable.
Tian Mi lived a very comfortable life.
She once had her own ambitions and wanted to accomplish something that only a man could accomplish. Even after she was killed in a raid on Xiliu Village and was captured, Tian Mi never completely surrendered to Yang Chong.
She pretended to surrender and even gave herself to Yang Chong, just to give herself a chance to fight.
Unfortunately, the saying that the land of pleasure is the grave of heroes applies not only to men, but also to women.
In her current life, Tian Mi feels extremely comfortable. She doesn't have to engage in intrigue or worry about survival. In her spare time, she practices martial arts, plays with children, studies pharmacology, poisons, etc. Her life is quite fulfilling. At least she is quite satisfied both materially and spiritually.
If she missed a man, she would run to Yang Chong's room, and a woman's desires could be greatly satisfied.
Although she was captured by Yang Chong and the two were hostile to each other, Tian Mi had to admit that from a woman's perspective, Yang Chong was a perfect lover. He was handsome and strong. He was famous at a young age and possessed power and wealth that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
There are not many people in the world who can meet all these conditions at the same time. With such a man, what else could Tian Mi be dissatisfied with?
Yes, in Tian Mi's cognitive thinking, the relationship between herself and Yang Chong was not that Yang Chong conquered her as a woman, but that she as a woman used Yang Chong to satisfy her own desires. Therefore, with such a mentality, it was impossible for her to be unhappy in her life at this time.
As for what kind of relationship there is between her and Yang Chong, it doesn’t matter. What matters is that both she and Yang Chong can be satisfied in this relationship.
Walking on the streets of Dong'a City, Tian Mi browsed the shops on both sides with a relaxed expression. If she saw something that interested her, she would walk up and buy it. As for whether she could hold the items herself, she was not worried at all. She just asked the shop owner to send one or two people to deliver the items to Yang's house.
If something can be solved by spending money, is it still a problem?
Just when Tian Mi herself realized how many useful and useless things she had bought, her eyes once again stopped in front of a newly opened shop. That shop was a shop selling lacquerware from the State of Chu. The lacquerware of Chu was famous all over the world and sold well in the six countries. It was common to see lacquerware from Chu in Dong'a City.
If that were all, this shop would certainly not be enough to attract Tian Mi's attention, but this shop had something extraordinary in its ordinary state, something extraordinary that only she could see.
In the corner of the shop's threshold, there was an inconspicuous pattern, but it was this inconspicuous pattern that made Tian Mi open her eyes in shock.
Tian Mi instinctively turned around and left, but she felt a chill all over her body. A vague force enveloped her, making her feel tense.
How is it possible? Tian Mi looked stiffly at the skinny old man who appeared at the door of the store, her pupils shrinking rapidly. How could it be him? If he appeared here, were the other five people also in this city?
"Madam, please come into our shop and have a look. We have recently received a number of high-quality lacquerware from the State of Chu. I believe you will be able to pick out a few items you like." The old man spoke, but although he was trying to solicit business, there was no enthusiasm in his tone, only condescending indifference.
Only ghosts like the lacquerware of the Chu State. I want the Chu State. Tian Mi shouted in her heart. She wanted to refuse the old man's invitation, but at this time she was only ten steps away from the old man. Facing the old man's indifferent gaze, let alone refusing, she couldn't even muster the courage to run away.
Because she knew the identity of this old man.
The military leader, one of the six wise men of the farming family, was close to being a master in strength. There were even five people like him in the shop in front of them. With the six of them joining forces, even a master could be killed, let alone a rookie like her.
At this moment, Tian Mi wanted to cry. She had nothing to do, so why come out? She had everything she needed at home, so she could just enjoy her life. But she had to find trouble. Now she was doomed.
Tian Mi's psychological activities were very rich at this time, but the old man was obviously not interested in letting Tian Mi continue thinking, he was already impatient.
Seeing the impatience in the old man's eyes, Tian Mi knew that she was doomed, so she could only bite the bullet and walk forward, following the old man into the store.
"It's them, and they're all here." After entering the store, Tian Mi's eyes first fell on the shopkeeper behind the counter.
This is a middle-aged man with a short beard and wearing a brocade robe. He looks like a nouveau riche, but the veins on the back of his hands are exposed. He doesn't look like a wealthy boss at all, but more like an ascetic wandering around the world.
Tian Mi recognized him and even called him "big brother". He was Tian Guang, the contemporary hero of the farming family. He was also the elder brother of Tian Meng, Tian Hu and others.
When the farmers raided Xiliu Village, the elders of the Tian clan, who already knew the ins and outs of Xiliu Village very well, sent out the elites of the Tian clan in order to monopolize the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan.
But they never expected that the simple task of gaining treasures by gaining experience would suddenly become a hellish difficulty. A Yang Chong who was beyond common sense appeared in Xiliu Village. He possessed terrifying martial arts at such a young age. Not only did the elites of the Tian family fail to complete the task, but they were all wiped out except Tian Mi who was captured.
Later, Situ Wanli invited a group of experts to surround and kill Yang Chong in Xinzheng, but they were all killed in return. Later, Yang Chong did a series of almost incredible things in Xinzheng, and even defeated a Luowang killer who was almost as good as the Six Sages of the Nong Family. Since then, Tian Guang, the leader of the Nong Family, knew that Yang Chong was no longer someone he and the Six Hall Masters could deal with.
Only two or even three of the six sages can completely defeat Yang Chong.
But the six sages were in seclusion at the time and could not be disturbed, so the Nong family's plan against Yang Chong had to be postponed again and again. During their postponement, Yang Chong even became the general of Han and now the junior tutor of Zhao.
"Tian Mi meets Xia Kui and Liu Xian." Surrounded by a group of men, Tian Mi felt like a kitten caught in a pack of tigers. She could do nothing but tremble.
"Tian Mi, you have been living a good life in recent years. Have you forgotten your identity?" Tian Guang looked at Tian Mi and felt that Tian Mi was already mature. When Tian Mi was only thirteen or fourteen years old, she was already famous among the farmers, attracting many farmers' disciples. Now Tian Mi is over twenty years old. Compared with the past, although she was charming, she was still immature. Now Tian Mi is round and smooth, like a fully ripe peach, plump and juicy, fascinating.
Unfortunately, none of the people in the store at that moment could be moved by the beauty of women, so Tian Mi's most powerful weapon became useless. She could only retract her claws and try to be as obedient as possible.
"Tian Mi cannot forget, Xia Kui, Liu Xian, you have no idea how hard Tian Mi has gone through all these years. That damn Yang Chong was too strong, we were no match for him at that time. I wanted to fight Yang Chong with Tian Mengge and the others, but then I thought, I can't do that. Even if I tried my best, I couldn't hurt Yang Chong, and it would be useless for the mission except to take another life." Surrounded by the 'tigers', Tian Mi, the little kitten, could only think quickly and weave reasons for herself that she already believed.
"Go on." Tian Guang said.
I can't go on! Tian Mi cried silently. It takes time to make up excuses, but Tian Guang didn't give her time at all.
If she just made it up on the spot, it would be a little difficult for Tian Mi. Fortunately, Tian Mi had really planned to endure hardships, so Tian Mi, who couldn't make it up, could only tell her original plan. Although this plan had long been thrown out of the window in her comfortable life, Tian Mi felt that it was still useful to bring it out now.
So Tian Mi continued, "Yang Chong didn't kill me right away. I realized then that although Yang Chong was not someone I could defeat in martial arts, I could defeat him in another way. He only left me behind because he must have been attracted by my beauty. As long as he had some plans for me, I would have a chance."
At this moment, she felt that her thoughts were completely clear, and she felt no pressure at all.
She was a person who was eloquent and good at persuasion. Now, facing the threat of death, her talent in this area was fully utilized.
"What are you going to do with this opportunity?" Tian Guang asked. Tian Guang and his friends didn't care whether Tian Mi had betrayed the Nong family and completely thrown herself into Yang Chong's arms. What they cared about was that they could get information about Yang Chong from Tian Mi, or even force Tian Mi to become their insider.
After all, in the face of the threat of death, Tian Mi could choose to live in disgrace. If this happened the first time, it would be normal to happen a second time.
"I want to find out Yang Chong's background, which is the inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan, to find out why he can possess such powerful martial arts at the same age as me." Tian Mi said.
"So what have you found out over the years?" Tian Guang asked.
"I found out. Although Yang Chong's martial arts are invincible among his peers, he is a man after all. He tells everything in bed." Tian Mi smiled charmingly and recovered her state completely.
"Don't talk nonsense." Tian Guang urged.
"Yang Chong knows a lot of martial arts, but the most powerful one is the energy-absorbing technique." Tian Mi said. She had heard a lot about Yang Chong's martial arts, but it was precisely because she knew some of Yang Chong's background that she realized that there were many more things about Yang Chong that she didn't understand. When she truly entered Yang Chong's world, she realized how wonderful Yang Chong's world was.
"Power-absorbing technique?" Tian Guang's expression changed slightly, and Liu Xian's expression also changed. They had never heard of this kind of martial arts, but they could make some judgments just by hearing the name.
"The Absorbing Power Technique is a martial art that can seize the internal energy of others. Yang Chong, who has mastered the Absorbing Power Technique, can easily absorb a giant object weighing a thousand pounds from a distance of several feet, and can easily seize their internal energy. It is precisely relying on the Absorbing Power Technique that Yang Chong was able to become a first-class master when he was less than twenty years old. He used the Absorbing Power Technique to successively seize the power of Snow-Clothed Marquis Bai Yifei and Ji Wuye, as well as a Luowang killer in Xinzheng. His current martial arts skills are almost no less than a master. If only the internal energy is calculated, he is not weaker than a master." Tian Mi revealed Yang Chong's background.
"The art of absorbing energy? Is this the final inheritance of the six tribes of Emperor Yan?" Tian Guang pondered, and a little excitement arose in his heart. This is a martial art that can be used for cheating, who wouldn't be tempted?
"Not only does he know the Qi-absorbing technique, he also has the Nine Yin Scriptures, a set of martial arts that covers all aspects. They are all very good, but they cannot be called true unique skills. He probably taught one or two of them to the maids at home." Tian Mi continued.
"Don't talk about these unimportant things, talk about something useful." Tian Guang urged.
"He also knows a kind of musical martial art. I don't know its specific name, but I know that it is very powerful. The sound blades it produces are extremely fast and invisible, making it impossible to defend against. Among the top masters, I'm afraid few can remain safe and sound under this kind of martial art." Tian Mi could only continue.
"By the way, he also has a kind of martial arts called Zhouliu Liuxu Gong. He taught me some of it before. This is a martial art similar to the Five Yin-Yang Techniques of the Yin-Yang School. It can control all kinds of heaven and earth vitality and is very powerful." In order to increase her chances of survival, Tian Mi revealed all of Yang Chong's details at this time.
"Show it to us." Tian Guang asked curiously. The Yin-Yang School's Yin-Yang techniques were derived from Taoism and are unique in their own way. It has both the mystery of Taoist martial arts and its own weirdness. It can be said to be the most mysterious school among all the schools of thought.
"This set of martial arts is divided into eight parts, and I learned the water part." Tian Mi stretched out her palm, and as her skills were circulated, she began to attract the water vapor between heaven and earth.
……
Yang Mansion.
"Tian Mi entered that shop and hasn't come out for a long time." Zi Nu said to Yang Chong.
"The farmers are here after all. Don't leave my side these days. We must prevent them from defeating us one by one." Yang Chong said.
"Tian Mi won't betray us, right? That woman is not simple." Zi Nu reminded.
"It's right for her to betray us. If she doesn't betray us, how can she strengthen the Mohist's determination to take action against us?" Yang Chong smiled indifferently, everything was under control.
