Red Dead Redemption Dawn

Chapter 189: About Wushu

In the building on the top floor of the hotel, John was taking a bath with a cigarette in his mouth. He was looking at an animal encyclopedia in his hand.

John was shirtless, showing his tendon, and his height belied the fact that he was a big man. He weighs one hundred and eighty pounds.

The high-quality height and proportions make him look slender, tall and thin when he puts on his clothes.

His memory is very good, and what he has seen with his heart can be remembered only by careful recall. I haven't achieved the ability to remember it, but I still remember it after reading it carefully, and I basically won't forget it.

Just as he looked excited, there was a knock on the door.

'dong dong dong~'

Hearing the voice, John put the book on the table next to him and called to the door.

"Who?"

"Mr. Wake, it's me. Xiaotian." Zheng Guotian's voice sounded outside the door.

"Ah~ wait a minute." After knowing who was coming, he immediately got up, picked up a bath towel and wrapped it around his waist, then put on slippers and walked out.

Open the door.

Zheng Guotian was standing at the door with six people.

John glanced at Zheng Guotian, and he did buy new clothes, dressed in casual denim.

"Mr. Wake." Zheng Guotian said with some respect.

"The clothes are good, come in." He then walked in and sat on the sofa in the living room.

A few people followed behind Zheng Guotian in a slightly restrained manner.

After sitting down, John said to several people, "Sit down." Then he picked up the cigarette on his coat.

"Do you smoke?" John said and took one and put it in his mouth. Then he threw the cigarette to Zheng Guotian.

He picked up a match and lit it, took a deep breath and said to Zheng Guotian, "Xiaotian, are these brothers?"

This time John said that since he opened the door just now, he is speaking Cantonese.

It's not that John doesn't want to speak Mandarin, but there's still a big difference between modern Mandarin and Mandarin today.

Fortunately, Zheng Guotian also explained to a few brothers that John can speak Cantonese in Cantonese.

"Yes, sir. They are all my brothers, and they are all smart." Zheng Guotian responded after passing out cigarettes to several brothers, and then said to them, "Introduce yourself to Mr. Wick."

Hearing that Zhao An was to be introduced, he was the first to stand up and say, "Mr. Wick, my name is Zhao An, and I am from Xin'an County, Guangzhou Prefecture."

"My family is a fisherman who makes a living by fishing, but when I was sixteen, I was sent to be an apprentice in the martial arts by my father."

He speaks with full of anger, and looks with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Very handsome.

John looked at him and nodded, then glanced at Zhao An again.

This Zhao An is getting more and more familiar the more he looks at it? Have you seen it anywhere? John looked at Zhao An's handsome face with some doubts.

"Hey~ Isn't this the Admiral of the Nine Sects!" John looked at Zhao An and automatically helped him change into a dress of a Qing Dynasty official.

"Sir, what did you say?" Zhao An asked somewhat incomprehensibly.

"Ah~ it's nothing, you are very similar to someone I've seen." John explained casually, and then asked, "You said you were a martial artist?"

"Yes, but the entry is very late." Zhao An nodded.

"Then do you know kung fu?" John asked with great interest his biggest question about Gu Wu in his previous life.

"I know some, but it's just a side door. I didn't learn the essence of it late. I'm ashamed." Zhao An said embarrassedly.

"That said, is there really a martial arts master?" John became more interested.

"What is the master of martial arts that Mr. Wake understands?" Zhao An asked cautiously after seeing the look that flashed in John's eyes.

"Flying over the eaves, walking up the wall, and leaping up the city wall of dozens of feet, various killing techniques, eye insertion, monkey stealing peaches, and martial arts classics. Iron sand palm can shoot people to pieces with one palm. Dugu Nine Swords, Yujian It can fly with a sword, take people's lives from 100 meters away, there are sword swinging, sword breaking, etc. There are also innate realms, dark and bright." John said in a very middle two.

"That's too exaggerated. As far as I know, I haven't heard of anyone who can do this, maybe I'm ignorant." Zhao An said with a black line on his face.

John was a little disappointed when he heard what Zhao An said, but he continued to ask.

"Then what is the difference between you and ordinary people? The difference between practicing martial arts and not practicing martial arts."

"The main purpose of practicing martial arts is to improve one's body, and to change the movement of the breath through specific breathing methods, so that one's own strength, speed, and perception can be stronger than ordinary people." See John is very interested in martial arts. Zhao An explained it in detail, such as martial arts.

"Because a child after an hour does not have a final shape, it can transform the child himself very well. However, this transformation will cause certain damage to the child's body, so it needs some elixir of heaven and earth to boil into ointment or medicated bath, so that the damage can be done. body recovered.”

"But because the elixir of the essence of the world is very expensive, it is not affordable for ordinary people to practice martial arts. It is also the origin of the phrase we Han people say 'the poor are rich in martial arts'."

"People who have practiced martial arts since childhood have a much larger appetite than ordinary people. This also makes our martial arts practitioners have much stronger strength, perception and speed than ordinary people. As for the killing skills you mentioned, sir, ordinary people can actually do it." Zhao An talked about his experience.

"Ordinary people?" John said incomprehensibly.

"Yes, as Mr. said, the fingers are inserted into the eyes, and monkeys steal peaches. They can do it without practice. The difference is that my speed and strength are faster than theirs, and the lethality is greater than theirs. Of course, I practice martial arts. The body is beaten and the ability to resist beating is stronger than them, that is, the skin is thick and the flesh is usually said." Zhao An said it very carefully.

"So, how old can you warriors be able to maintain your strongest state?" John said again.

"It's hard to say. Some of the dark wounds left by martial arts practice are not even healed, and some cannot find suitable elixir. All kinds of bruises left during martial arts practice, etc., lead to our warriors' lifespans are often not high. But the strongest time should be around 30 years old. After the age of 40, the strength will decline. After the age of 50, you can have about half of the strength. And the rare age of seventy or eighty years old is similar to that of ordinary people in their sixties or seventies." Zhao An continued to speak after finishing speaking.

"Of course, this state refers to the perfect state of martial arts training without leaving any hidden injuries when you were young."

"Ah~ so that's the case, I finally understand." John nodded, Zhao An's words made him understand what the so-called martial arts was about.

"Yes, sir, do you want to practice martial arts? If you want to join, you may miss the best age." Zhao An thinks John has this idea.

"No, what else do I practice at my age. I just asked out of curiosity." John waved his hand to signal the end of his words about martial arts.

"By the way, Xiaotian. Have you talked to Zheng Wenbin?" John turned his head and asked.

"Sir, I have already contacted him. He also agreed to his request. We will go to check tomorrow to remove some unqualified people." Zheng Guotian said seriously.

"What did he ask for?" John asked again.

There are more than 100 people, if all of them follow John's requirements, then the leaders of the chamber of commerce will definitely have a lot less oil and water, which is inevitable. So while Zheng Wenbin agreed to these demands, he would definitely make other demands.

Zheng Guotian looked at John's delicate and handsome face, then hesitated for a moment and said, "Sir, Brother Xu did make some requests, but I didn't agree immediately, I just said that I would help him talk."

"Ah~ you said." John nodded, not caring.

"Brother Xu said that some of the young and strong craftsmen's family members need to follow him to work in the husband's ranch. They can also help with the work. They don't need wages. They only need two meals a day." Zheng Guotian said while looking at John's face. arrive.

After hearing it, John did not answer immediately, but thought for a while and asked, "The construction period is not long, why should I follow?" It's only a year and a half, and it's not that I don't give you the time and opportunity to visit. John told his family People are still wealthy. And if you go with a group of people, the cost of food is also a huge amount.

Zheng Guotian hesitated for a moment and just wanted to say something else, but Zhao An behind him patted Zheng Guotian on the shoulder and said.

"Mr. Wake, it's like this. They can't live anymore." Zhao An said.

"Hmm~??"

"For more than a year, I don't know if it's because there are fewer jobs in Saint Denis or because there are more and more Han children, our jobs are getting harder and harder, and life is getting harder and harder. I starved to death last winter. A lot of people. The government relief fund basically has nothing to do with us Han people. These women and children are all the men in the family who died due to work accidents or illnesses. Those who left them with little ability to work, they have been relying on helping us to mend our clothes. Live with the food donated by the Hometown Association," Zhao An said in a calm voice.

"This time, Xu Wenbin hopes that the husband will show kindness and help these women and children to help them. Even if they have two meals a day, it is better than eating one meal a day and being hungry."

"Mr. Wick, we can lower the wages of these workers to provide food for these women and children." Zhao An finally pleaded.

"Is it so difficult for the Han children here?" John felt that there would be fellow villagers there, so that these people would not be hungry, but he seemed to think about these things too beautifully.

"Sir, we can also reduce the wages, please sir, don't despise them. They are very capable, such as helping to boil water, cook, and carry some food, or some light work. It is also possible to do some light work. It's enough to provide two meals. It's very good to feed." Zheng Guotian quickly told John that they were not a group of workers who only knew how to eat waste, but workers who could help a lot, and workers who didn't need wages.

The people behind him all agreed with Zheng Guotian's statement. They also knew the situation of the women and children in a township association. They would definitely be willing to earn less money and save dozens of women and children more.

"How many are there?" John asked while looking at the whole country.

"There are about 300 people, but you don't need to pass all of them. You only need half, no, one-third to come. I will also select the young and strong among these people, and I don't want those who are sick." Zheng Guotian said a little. said nervously. For fear that John would refuse.

"Can the rest of Xu Wenbin be taken care of?" John asked again.

"Yes, if the number of people is reduced by one-third, it will be no problem for them to eat three meals a day. And there will be more work." Zheng Guotian said.

"Okay then, I'll leave this matter to a few of you. But I have to explain to Xu Wenbin that some of the workers' wages will be deducted for the food funds for these women and children." John nodded, he spoke to the white man. If he can help, he will help him, and he will not refuse to the children of the Han family. But he didn't have the ability to help too much for the time being. One hundred women and children should be within the scope of his ability.

"You agreed?" Zheng Guotian said in disbelief. He thought it would take a lot of work, but he didn't expect John to agree after asking about the situation.

Not to mention Zheng Guotian, the following people were also very surprised.

This is a foreigner. They have never seen such kindness towards them, the Han children. The attitude of the foreigners towards them is basically clear to them over the years.

Seeing the surprised expressions of these seven people ~www.NovelMTL.com~, John explained with a smile, "My great-grandfather is also a Han Chinese, and I also like Han culture very much. Of course, I don't really like the current Manchu Qing Dynasty."

"Yes, yes, we don't like Da Qing either. Otherwise, we wouldn't have run away." Zheng Guotian said happily.

"Okay, you go back and tell Xu Wenbin, and you go back and choose the women and children to come back with me." John smiled and waved them back and told them.

"Okay, sir, we will definitely live up to your expectations." Zheng Guotian thanked him again and again, and then took people to leave.

"Hey~ Xiaotian, wait a second." John stopped Zheng Guotian after thinking for a while.

"Sir, what's the matter?" Zheng Guotian asked back.

"Take this with you, and then go to the nearby market to buy more food. You don't have to buy too much. Buy more, and then take this food and distribute it to the women and children." John took out a thousand from his pocket. The US dollar was handed over to Zheng Guotian and said to him.

"Sir, this!" Zheng Guotian looked at the huge sum of money in his hand, his voice trembling.

"Go, I hope you buy enough, don't go through the Chamber of Commerce, otherwise you won't be able to buy much. Don't say anything like a big favor, just follow me and do things well in the future." John ignored Zheng Guotian and the others. Moved, but directly let them go to work.

"Okay!" Zheng Guotian said this good word in a very solemn tone.

Then he took people out of here.

John looked at the seven who left, then returned to the sofa, took out another copy, and looked at Herbal Botany. Red Dead Redemption Dawn https://
