Chapter 40: The Snake-Crane Contest, the Truth in the Brain

9:25.

Lu Yuan was lying on the massage bed, shirtless, wearing only a pair of underwear.

Unknown light music was playing in his ears, and a faint sandalwood scent lingered on his nose.

"Patta, patta——"

He quickly sent a message to his mother Zheng Qiuling with his mobile phone, saying that he might not be back until after ten o'clock.

After sending the message, Lu Yuan threw his mobile phone aside and lay down to enjoy this rare "coach-level" massage.

The man who helped Lu Yuan with the massage this time was a thin and small middle-aged man. He was silent, but his technique was better than that of the master last time.

The strength was more appropriate, and the position of the massage was more accurate.

However.

The biggest difference from the last time....

It was still the essential oil used twice... Oh no, it was medicated oil.

Lu Yuan remembered that the last time he borrowed Cheng Peng's, the man gave him a white medicated oil with a faint fragrance.

This time it was black.

It is more viscous and smells a bit pungent, not as good as last time.

The feeling of applying it on the body is also different.

It feels hot at first, then turns to cool, penetrates into the skin and lasts for a long time.

"Is this the auxiliary secret medicine of Yuanwuguan... Tianshui Liuhe School?"

Lu Yuan thought silently in his heart.

This time Lu Yuan did not fall asleep again.

After half an hour of massage, he lay down for a while and then got up to take a shower.

The effect of "coach-level" massage is really amazing.

When Lu Yuan walked out of the martial arts hall after taking a shower, he felt that the soreness all over his body had been reduced by half.

I guess I don't have to wait until tomorrow.

I can recover almost tonight.

"I heard that the more ancient martial arts schools are, the more proficient they are in healing injuries.

Because the inheritance of martial arts schools is inevitable, they will be challenged by others, face competitions, and disciples may get injured during their daily practice.

If there is no unique healing method, it will be difficult for this school to pass on martial arts no matter how powerful it is..."

Lu Yuan forgot where he saw this sentence.

Now that I think about it, I just think it makes sense.

The last bus arrived late.

There are still many people on the bus.

Most of them are overtime dogs holding briefcases or carrying computer bags, looking tired.

Seeing them, Lu Yuan seemed to see himself in his previous life.

After a circle of sympathetic eyes, Lu Yuan found a seat near the back door and sat down.

The lights outside the window were dim.

In the night sky, a beautiful full moon like a silver plate was hanging high.

Lu Yuan suddenly remembered the group of crows he saw after walking out of the Mosa Fighting Club last night.

I don't know if it was a coincidence.

Just at this moment, a black shadow passed by Lu Yuan's eyes.

He heard the sound of birds flapping their wings, and quickly turned around to chase them, but there was no trace of them, and he didn't know if it was a crow.

Lu Yuan took out his mobile phone and searched the Internet.

The encyclopedia said that crows are very gregarious creatures, and they are usually active during the day.

But because the lights in the city are strong at night, it is not uncommon to see them at night.

So it is normal?

Lu Yuan thought about it, and couldn't help searching for Tianshui Liuhe Sect.

"Can't find the content you are searching for."

Uh...

Lu Yuan didn't give up, deleted the two words "He Sect", and searched directly for Tianshui Liu.

This time, there was a lot of content that popped up.

"....Chairman of Xiabang Martial Arts Association, Tianshui School Master Cai Huazhang was invited to attend the Martial Arts Exchange Meeting between the two countries......."

".....Warmly congratulate Tianshui School disciple Huo Ning for winning the runner-up in the 37th 'Young Eagle Cup' National Martial Arts Competition......"

"...The martial arts schools participating in this event include Tianshui School, Hengshan School, and Heisha School......"

But there is almost no information related to the two words "Crane School".

Lu Yuan kept scrolling down.

When he turned to the fifth page, he found a little clue.

"....Since the dispute between the snake and the crane of Tianshui School more than 20 years ago......."

This is a tweet introducing the history of Tianshui School, and only the short line of small words at the beginning is displayed.

Lu Yuan tried to click in, but got a prompt that "the webpage has been disconnected".

"Oh!"

Lu Yuan flipped back again, but found nothing, so he could only put down his phone helplessly.

"Snake-Crane dispute?"

"So in addition to the Crane faction represented by Yuanwuguan, there is also a Snake faction in Tianshuiliu?

The people who are in charge of Tianshuiliu and enjoying unlimited glory are from the Snake faction?"

Lu Yuan's brain with ten points of intelligence started to work rapidly.

Combining the plots in various novels he had read in his previous life and this life, he quickly made up a "twistful and moving" and "reasonable" plot.

"Snake-Crane dispute, failed to compete for the position of the leader of Tianshuiliu... He was sad and afraid of revenge from the Snake faction, so he came to Jiaoyan City under an assumed name and changed his name to Yuanwuguan..."

The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that this was the truth.

Snake faction.

This name doesn't sound good.

Maybe some conspiracy and tricks were used to win the honorable position during the Snake-Crane dispute.

"Revitalize the Crane faction, it is our duty!"

This slogan suddenly popped up in Lu Yuan's mind.

But it only existed for a second before he crossed it out!

"Come on, I'm not an official disciple of the Crane Sect yet."

"If you really join the Crane Sect in the future, please don't come to me for this kind of revenge thing..."

As Lu Yuan was thinking about it, the cell phone in his hand rang.

He picked up his phone and took a look and found that it was the automatically pushed Jiaoyan City evening news.

"...Recently, two more suspected missing persons cases occurred in our city, each in Luming Community...

We hope that the general public will be cautious when going out at night and if necessary, seek help from the police as soon as possible..."

Lu Yuan's eyes flashed.

Another person is missing.

Looking at the addresses of the crimes...the two incidents this time seemed to have occurred in the east of the city.

Lu Yuan couldn't help but think of the crying woman he saw at the door of the martial arts gym before, and the floating shuttle he saw occasionally on the playground this afternoon.

"I hope the so-called higher authorities can resolve this matter as soon as possible..."

Lu Yuan sighed softly.

Now that the case is getting more and more intense, and its scope of influence is getting wider and wider, Lu Yuan is afraid that sooner or later it will burn the people around him.

That was the last thing he wanted to foresee.

Then I visited several larger public forums in Jiaoyan City.

I discovered that when the hover shuttle flew by in the afternoon, I was not the only one who witnessed it.

Many people also took photos.

There are also different opinions on the origin and destination of the hover shuttle.

The road was long and winding, and we arrived at the station before we knew it.

........

"Mom, can I cook you a bowl of noodles?"

"No, you go and do your homework. What time is it? Can you sleep tonight?"

"oh."

Lu Yuan retracted his body from the window, curled his lips and sat back helplessly at the desk.

Homework still needs to be written.

But for Lu Yuan.

The little homework assigned by the school was not enough for him to fill his teeth.

"It can be done in half an hour at most."

Lu Yuan took out all his homework and spread it out in front of him.

I am about to activate [Absolute Concentration] to finish my homework as quickly as possible, and then practice martial arts for a while.

suddenly.

He looked at his career panel, and an idea came to his mind -

“And a little skill point.

How about...raising [Absolute Focus] to another level? "
