During this month of closed door practice, although the three of them didn't have much progress in their cultivation, their foundations had been strengthened and their horizons had expanded. They believed that the three of them would have a new breakthrough in the near future! After Guo Kaishan came out of seclusion, he also got to know other martial arts masters, especially his father Guo Haifeng's sworn brother, the Fifth King of the Saber King.

"I wish Old Master Guo a life longer than Nanshan, and luck like the East Sea!"

"Disciple wishes Master (Master) eternal health!"

Soon, it was the day of Guo Yunzhen's eightieth birthday. This morning, guests had gathered in the center of the hall to pay their respects to old man Guo Yunzhen!

"Good!" Good! Hahaha, an old man like me needs a big guy for his birthday! I'm sorry! " Guo Yunzhen looked at his martial brothers, his disciples, disciples, and all the other martial arts experts and happily said, "I'll go with you!"

"Old man, this is a camera that I had someone bring from Beijing. Do you think we should take a photo as a souvenir while everyone is still happy?" After everyone had paid their respects to him, Cheng Tinghua would return to his own residence and lead a person carrying an old-fashioned camera over his shoulder as he spoke to Guo Yunzhen!

However, this Guo Yunzhen did not know the capabilities of this camera. After Cheng Tinghua's explanation, Guo Yunzhen nodded his head repeatedly in agreement! After that, everyone took photos with Old Man Guo, their elders, and their friends!

Even the little brat Guo Kaishan had taken a few pictures with everyone, like the photo of Old Master Guo and his disciple, the three of them together with Old Master Guo, the three of them together with Big Saber Wang Wu and his disciple, and so on! Of course, these photos would become valuable cultural relics in the future!

As Guo Yunzhen's birthday passed, the rest of the staff also left one by one, returning to their own homes! However, there were still some who stayed behind, such as Li Caiyi, Big Saber King Wu, Cheng Tinghua, Liu Xiaolan's disciple Liu Weishan, Yang Fushan, and so on!

Of course, Guo Kaishan and his family stayed behind as well. After all, Guo Haifeng had not seen Guo Yunzhen for more than ten years. Furthermore, it was already late winter, so even returning to the Azure Continent would not be a big deal! Furthermore, with the old man's repeated attempts to persuade him to stay, Guo Haifeng planned to spend the Spring Festival at the old man's house, and only return to the Cyan Plains Palace after the spring break! However, this way, Guo Kai Shan and Wang Yu Zhai would be able to learn Xing Yi Martial Arts together. As for Li Cunyi's last disciple, Xue Dian, he had already returned to Li's escort office with his eldest senior brother, Shang Yunxiang. Similarly, Wang Mingbo, son of the Saber King's fifth disciple, had also returned with the rest of his juniors to the capital's Shunyuan escort office!

"Brothers, right now, the foreigners are becoming more and more arrogant in my Qing Dynasty! I heard that in Shandong and other places, there have been organizations that have united to defend themselves, calling themselves the 'Boxers'! I wonder what everyone's views are on this?! " On the fifth day after the birthday banquet, the Saber King's Fifth King, Zhengyi, said to Guo Yunshen's disciples and other martial arts experts who were temporarily in the deep county.

"Well said, Brother Wang!" I have long disliked these foreign devils! Why don't we organize some people to join the Boxer Kingdom? As long as it's Oceanic! " As soon as Wang Wu finished speaking, Li Cunyi followed up with a few words!

All of a sudden, the entire group was filled with excitement. After all, they knew Wang Wu, Cheng Tinghua, and the others from before. Even if they didn't know it beforehand, that martial arts practitioner didn't have any guts! All of them expressed their intention to join the Boxer Kingdom!

However, the person beside him was not as excited. He knew Guo Haifeng, after all, Guo Haifeng had a son who was only ten years old – Guo Kaishan!

"Brother, do you have any concerns?" At this moment, Guo Haifeng's sworn brother, Saber King Wu, noticed that his brother's enthusiasm was not that high, so he asked.

"This … Fifth brother, fellow brothers, the Empress Dowager and the other adults in the capital have yet to speak. Is it not good for us to fight the foreigners like this?!" Also, you know that Xiao Hu Zi is only ten years old this year, what if something happens to me?! How are we going to survive this?! " After hearing what Wang Wu said, Guo Haifeng voiced out his concerns!

"Dad, it can't be like this right? I represent you to greet each of my uncles' Boxers. You and Little Tiger will go back to your hometown first, how about it?!" Guo Kaiyuan, Guo Haifeng's eldest son, suddenly spoke up! Originally, Guo Kaiyuan was not part of the meeting, but Wang Wu had a good impression of Guo Kaiyuan, and had made an exception for him to attend!

"Da Hu, you're not going to study in Japan anymore?!" Guo Haifeng asked curiously when he heard his eldest son's words. Originally, Guo Kaiyuan had planned to cross Japan after paying his respects to Guo Yun for his birthday!

"Dad, with justice at hand, I'd rather stay in the country and kill more foreign devils!" Guo Kaiyuan said without a care when he heard his father's words!

"Good!" Da Hu, you are much more promising than me! Da Hu, when the time comes, don't forget to kill a few more foreign devils for me! " Hearing his eldest son's words, Guo Haifeng stood up and patted Guo Kaiyuan's shoulder.

"What?!" Big brother, you're not going to Little Japan, you're going to stay at home and join the Boxer Alliance to kill foreign devils?! Big brother, is your brain still functioning properly? You guys can block a foreign devil's guns!? There was a saying, no matter how high one's martial arts was, one strike could knock it out! Brother, I think you should forget about it! " When he got back to his residence, Guo Kaishan, who had just returned from a martial arts practice, would loudly shout out when he heard that his big brother was going to join the Boxers. Although he didn't remember much about Guo Hai's history, he had seen movies about the Boxers and the Eight Nations when he was in the army and knew that the Boxers were a motley crowd.

"Little Tiger, what nonsense are you spouting? Your big brother's martial arts has already reached the late stage of the Dark Force, how could these guns hit him?! " Guo Haifeng, who happened to be walking in from the outside, shouted when he heard Guo Kaishan's words.

"Dad, I'm not exaggerating. Aside from my grandteacher, 30 meters here, all of you chivalrous warriors come at me one at a time. I guarantee you that you will be able to hit me with one strike, not with two!" Guo Kaishan knew that once he joined the Boxer Faction, even if his martial arts mastery was high, it would still drag him down, unless he reached the stage of Strength Conversion just like Guo Yunzhen and was sensitive to danger! Right now, it was related to his big brother's life. "Really?! Little Tiger, why don't we go out and give it a try?! " When Guo Haifeng heard Guo Kaishan's famous "No matter how high one's martial arts was, one shot, knock it out", he immediately became furious and roared at Little Tiger!

"Tiger, what are you roaring for?! Don't scare the children! " The other martial arts practitioners were preparing to return to their own residences as well. As they approached, Saber King's Five heard Guo Haifeng shouting outside the door. He was afraid that Guo Haifeng would attack Xiaohu, so he quickly pushed open the door and said!

"Humph!" I can't scare him! Fifth brother, you didn't hear anything just now, this brat is too strong, he doesn't even put his father in his eyes, isn't this just saying that he will knock out his father from 30 meters away?! Guo Haifeng could tell that Wang Wu didn't take him to be an outsider, so he said this to Wang Wu in a bad mood!

"Dad, I never said I would knock you down!" Guo Kaishan hurriedly said when he heard his father's words!

"You're not admitting it now?!" Who said that 'no matter how high your kung fu is, you will be knocked down in one shot', 'We will not shoot you down in one shot, except for Master, who is thirty meters away!' "What?!" The moment Guo Haifeng heard Guo Kaishan's words, he was immediately enraged!

"Kai Yuan, what exactly is going on with those two men?! Tell me about it! " When the Great Saber King heard that the two were still fighting, he immediately stopped them and asked Guo Kaiyuan beside him!

After hearing Wang Wu's question, Guo Kaiyuan did not take Wang Wu for an outsider either. He did not care about how Guo Kaishan got the gun in Qingzhou last year. He told him about how Guo Kaishan went to test the gun in the mountains before he came here, and then told him everything that Guo Kaishan had said!

"What?!" Little Tiger, is what your big brother said true?! Can you really hit us from thirty meters away?! " When the Big Saber Wang Wu heard Guo Kaiyuan's words, he was shocked. If what Guo Kaishan said was true, then when we join the Boxer Faction, we will be at a huge disadvantage!

"Lord Fifth, that's just my speculation. However, I'm eighty to ninety percent confident!" When Guo Kaishan heard Wang Wu's words, he quickly said it!

"Good, hearing is false, seeing is believing!" Tomorrow, we'll go out and give it a try! " When Wang Wu heard Guo Kaishan's affirmation, he wanted to go out and give it a try. But it was already late, so he spoke to the Guo father and son duo.

The previous book had written that in 1897, villagers and churches in Liuyuan Village, Guanzhou County, Shandong Province, had clashed over historical land disputes. Weixian Plum Blossom Boxer Zhao Sanduo went to assist the villagers upon their invitation by Yan Shiqin. Later, Zhao Sanduo changed the name of Plum Blossom Fist to Yi He Fist. In June 1898, the Shandong patron, Zhang Rumei, played the imperial court, considered the Boxer to be a village group, and suggested that "the Boxers should be changed into the militia." The concept of "Boxer" was put forward for the first time among the officials of the Qing Dynasty, and the concept of "Boxer" was clearly stated as "Boxer". In October of the same year, Zhao Sanduo and others raised the flag "Intifada" of "Fuqingyang" in Jiangjiazhuang, Guanchang County, which was suppressed and defeated by the Qing army.

And this year, Jiang Kai, a county in Pingyuan County, Shandong Province, suppressed the Boxers, while Li Changshui, the local leader of the Boxers, asked for the support of Zhu Honglian, the leader of the Boxers in Yueping, Gaotang, and other places. On October 11, Jiang Kai led dozens of brave soldiers to fight back, but he was defeated by the Boxers. The incident was later called the "Plain Intifada".

Later on, the Qing government sent Yuan Shitong and the others to suppress Yang He, and defeated Yi He Fist in the battle of Dark Asura Hall. Then the Qing army guerrilla Ma Jinxu captured the leaders of the Boxing, Zhu Honglian, Xincheng Monk and others. At that time, the Shandong Patrol Officer was Yu Xian, who hated foreign invaders and sympathized with the people's anti-Western struggle. He dismissed Jiang Kai, Yuan Shendong, and so on, and adopted the measures of eliminating the Boxer Sect, mainly taking pacification. It was said that it was Yuxian who changed his boxing style into a group, and he also played the imperial court to attribute the responsibility of the conflict between the people and the church to the church. His attitude was treated with hostility by the foreign powers, and Yuxian was stripped of his post under negotiation. But Yuxian also suppressed the Boxer, before he left, he ordered Zhu Honglian, Sincerity Monk, Yu Qingshui and other leaders of the Boxer group killed.

In December 1899, Yuan Shikai replaced Yu Xian to represent Shandong Patrol. Yuan Shikai has been hostile to the Boxer League ever since he took office in Shandong Province. After he took office in Shandong Province, he strictly restricted the activities of the Boxer League.
