The external injuries on Qiao Mu’s body, under Wang Songhe’s treatment, were not particularly serious. It can only be said that with about a month of rest, he would fully recover.
The real problem lies within his body.
“The meridians in your body are almost completely destroyed, your internal strength is next to nothing. It can even be said that your path in martial arts has been severed!” Wang Songhe shakes his head and sighs.
The side effects of the Heavenly Demon Disintegration Method cannot be easily resolved through medical techniques.
This is a famous self-harming and explosive secret method. If it could be easily saved with medical techniques afterwards, then what’s the point of calling it a self-harming secret method?
It is precisely because of the enormous cost that very few people use and master it.
However, to Wang Songhe’s surprise, Qiao Mu remains calm.
“It’s okay,” he nodded.
“Since Guo Yan has already been defeated, what’s a little price to pay?”
“If Brother Qiao Sen goes directly to Heyang City, you might be treated as a refugee.”
“I have an old friend named Shen Qinghe who works as an official in Heyang City. It shouldn’t be a problem for him to arrange a job for you.”
In Wang Songhe’s eyes, Qiao Sen’s meridians were greatly damaged, making him almost disabled. His internal strength was nearly depleted, and there wasn’t much martial arts ability left in his body.
For Qiao Sen, who only has a small amount of remaining internal strength, it is a big problem to make a living and acquire medicine for treating his damaged meridians.
That’s why he took the initiative to propose.
After all, “Qiao Sen” also helped him kill Yan City’s lord, Guo Yan.
Qiao Mu had no choice but to accept after expressing his gratitude.
After his body is refreshed, he won’t need to worry about making a living or buying medicine. But having this recommendation letter can indeed save him a lot of trouble.
However, there is something that Qiao Mu is a bit curious about:
“You, a mountain bandit, actually have connections with government officials? And you can recommend others?”
“They were just colleagues I knew when I was young…” Wang Songhe didn’t elaborate and quickly moved on.
Meanwhile, Zhang Kui couldn’t wait any longer.
“Big brother, since Brother Qiao Sen is already awake, why don’t we divide the treasures we seized from the Lord’s Manor?”
“Yes, yes, it’s time to divide.” Qiao Mu became interested as soon as he heard it:
“I’m not really interested in gold and silver treasures. After all, they are just material possessions that we can’t take with us when we die. But if there are any martial arts manuals, I’m quite interested.”
Because Qiao Mu couldn’t move yet, the bandits quickly brought the things they had seized from the secret room in the Lord’s Manor for Qiao Mu to look over.
Among them, there were many antiques, collectibles, and jewelry, shining brightly. But Qiao Mu didn’t care and started flipping through a secret manual.
“If Brother Qiao Sen is interested in the secret manual, there is a top-notch ancient method martial arts technique here!”
Zhang Kui eagerly handed a secret manual to Qiao Mu.
The hardcover book had five words written on it.
《Pure Yang Wuji Skill》.
“This thing is really impressive,” praised mountain bandit Zhang Kui.
“Pure Yang Wuji Skill is the exclusive skill of the Wudang Sect, the most advanced martial arts technique and mental cultivation method! It is said that it was created by the legendary Zhang Zhenren, who achieved enlightenment through martial arts. This technique is extraordinary!”
“Although Guo Yan only obtained the first half of the Pure Yang Wuji Skill, it is still amazing.”
“How did the exclusive skill of the Wudang Sect end up in Guo Yan’s hands?” Qiao Mu was quite surprised.
“And what do you mean by ‘ancient method martial arts’ that you just mentioned?”
“It’s all because of what the Martial Saint caused.” Wang Songhe shook his head and said:
“Several decades ago, there were still many martial arts sects in the world, such as the famous sects like Wudang and Shaolin, and martial arts clans like Heyang City’s Qiao Family. They were prosperous… but these are all things of the past.”
“After the appearance of Martial Saint, the martial arts of these various sects became ancient martial arts, while what Martial Saint founded is a modern method.”
