Red Dust Inn Chapter 22 Wooden House
"Don't giggle, apply gold sore medicine to me." Shen Luoxia urged in a trembling voice.
"Uh, okay, where is the gold sore medicine? I'll fetch it for you. Zhao Zheng asked happily.
"In the third compartment of the dresser."
Zhao Zheng walked to the dresser as he said and opened the third grid. There are a lot of things in it, there are more than a dozen bottles and jars, and some white cloths for bandaging. He picked up the yellow sè medicine bottle labeled "gold sore medicine", grabbed another white cloth, hurried back to the bedside, and began to bandage Shen Luoxia's wound.
The gold sore medicine has a pain-relieving effect, and not long after applying the medicine, Shen Luoxia felt much better, and her tense expression relaxed.
Zhao Zheng then picked up the white cloth, wrapped it around Shen Luoxia's left shoulder a few times, tied a knot, and helped Shen Luoxia bandage it properly.
Shen Luoxia glanced at the white cloth on her left shoulder, raised her hand to pull up the placket of her middle coat, covered it, and then looked at Zhao Zheng and ordered: "Tonight's matter, you are not allowed to tell anyone, others ask you, you just said that you came to my room to listen to some lectures, and did nothing else." ”
"Don't worry, I'll keep my mouth shut." Zhao Zheng nodded.
"Not only keep your mouth shut, but also your heart, and you just act like nothing happened tonight and forget all about tonight."
"Good...... I'll forget about it right away. Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly, the scene that happened just now was so profound, even if he put a knife on his neck, he couldn't forget it.
"Okay, there's nothing to do with you here, you can get out. After I went out, I sent a message to the people and butchers for me, and told them to pack up the luggage in the king's house, see what was there, and whether they came to disturb me, and let me rest for the night. Shen Luoxia leaned on the bedpost and slowly closed her tired eyes.
"Yes." Zhao Zheng turned around, hesitated, picked up the oil lamp on the ground, put it on the table properly, kept it for Shen Luoxia to illuminate, and then walked to the door.
"Stop." Shen Luoxia suddenly stopped Zhao Zheng and said embarrassedly, "You help me lie on the bed, it's uncomfortable to rely on like this, and I can't rest." ”
Zhao Zheng was not poisoned by drug abuse, and now he is in a good mood, but he is happy to do this. He immediately turned around and came to the bedside.
Shen Luoxia didn't want to be fiddled around, her face turned rosy, and she turned her head.
Zhao Zheng grabbed Shen Luoxia's jade back with one hand, stretched in from the root of Shen Luoxia's thigh with the other hand, and picked up Shen Luoxia with both hands and put her flat on the bed.
After Shen Luoxia lay down, she didn't say anything, raised her hand and waved twice, signaling Zhao Zheng to leave.
Zhao Zheng left the house at this time, leaving Shen Luoxia to rest alone, and went straight to the back kitchen secret room.
The people slaughtered the children and they were still in the secret room, and when they saw Zhao Zheng coming back, they immediately asked long and short questions.
Zhao Zheng made up some rhetoric according to Shen Luoxia's instructions and concealed everything that had just happened.
After hearing this, Wang Er left the table to clean up Wang Jiu's room, and the others stayed behind and continued to celebrate Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng raised his wine glass and toasted everyone one by one, talking and laughing with everyone during the banquet. After Zhao Zheng joined the gang, everyone didn't have to hide anything from him anymore, Song Kuaizui, who had always been talkative, pulled Zhao Zheng and told him a lot of things that had happened in the inn before, including the cases they had done, and who the people who were killed. These anecdotes are quite interesting, and Zhao Zheng likes to listen to them very much.
Everyone stayed in the secret room of the kitchen, making a fuss for most of the night, among these people, the person who drank the most wine was Ren Tuzi, and the person who talked the most was Song Kuaizui, Zhao Zheng still maintained the previous low-key style.
The second smiling ghost king was afraid that everyone would drink too much and delay tomorrow's work, so he announced the dismissal of the party, and drove everyone who were a little drunk back to their rooms.
In the remaining days, Shen Luoxia rarely went out, and even when she ate, she asked others to send her to the room, and she raised her several times in a row, and her qi gradually improved.
The smiling ghost Wang Er secretly took Wang Jiu's head to Qibao County and exchanged it for a reward of seven thousand taels in the official mansion. According to him, every time he exchanged the head of a wanted criminal for a reward, he sent another person to come forward, and he did not show his face in person.
Although the Hongchen Inn is built on Zhongguan Road, it has its own eyeliner and manpower in several surrounding counties. These people have nothing to do, eat and drink in the county, and only come in handy at critical moments. The Red Dust Inn will spend a lot of money on raising these idlers every year, but the money is well spent.
After Wang Er brought the reward money back, according to Shen Luoxia's instructions, he distributed the money to everyone according to the size of his efforts. Zhao Zheng received a reward of one hundred taels for his meritorious service in transporting the corpse. Afterwards, Wang Er found Zhao Zheng privately and secretly gave Zhao Zheng a reward of 300 taels, saying that it was given to him by the shopkeeper's orders, but he did not explain the reason.
Zhao Zheng took the money and thought about it for a while, and immediately guessed that this was the reward he got in exchange for taking * drugs at risk, he took * drugs for Shen Luoxia, which can be regarded as saving Shen Luoxia's life in disguise, and taking this reward can be said to be well-deserved. It's just that he would rather ask for Na Luo Yanbu's cultivation method than this reward.
……
Zhao Zheng cultivated hard every day, accumulated over time, and his strength improved again, and he had reached level 9, only one step away from breaking through the bottleneck and reaching the second heaven realm! At that time, his strength will change qualitatively, and his body skin will become much stronger, more durable, and he will be able to take advantage of people when fighting people.
What's more, his enemy Qian Catcher is in the realm of the Double Heaven, and after he arrives at the Double Heaven, he is far away from the revenge and can start to formally plan how to take revenge.
Due to the increase in level, Zhao Zheng also gained more points every day, increasing to 18 points per day, and he kept the extra points, gradually accumulating more than 300 points, which can be exchanged for the next copy.
Among the remaining dungeons, Zhao Zheng's favorite is the wooden house dungeon, because in this dungeon he can exercise actual combat experience, if he wants to take revenge, actual combat experience is essential, otherwise the little grappler he learned will always be a showcase, and it will not be useful at all.
Martial arts are easy to learn, difficult to use, if you want to master a martial arts, you have to spend a lot of time and effort, other than that, there is no shortcut. Even if you are a martial arts genius with great talent, you can only rely on fighting to continue to grow, because there are some things that cannot be understood, and no matter how smart your mind is, it is useless.
That night, Zhao Zheng left a full five opportunities to enter the dungeon, secretly came to the outside of the house, found a corner where no one was, closed his eyes and entered the system. He directly clicked into the Wooden House dungeon and spent three hundred and fifty points to unlock this dungeon completely. Just listen to a piece of music, and the wooden house copy becomes accessible.
Zhao Zheng checked the introduction of the dungeon, and then entered the adjustment interface and adjusted the two options of this dungeon.
In the Wooden House dungeon, one of the options is the Wooden Man's Weapons and Martial Arts option, the host can set weapons for the Wooden Man, and can also install the martial arts he has learned on the Wooden Man; Another option is the time option, the host can adjust the rest time for the wooden people, and whenever the wooden people fight for a certain amount of time, they will stop the offensive in their hands and give the host time to rest.
Zhao Zheng set the wooden man to be empty-handed, and installed the small grappling hand he learned on the wooden man, so that he could use the small grappling hand with the wooden man. In terms of time, the time limit for the wooden house is four hours, and these four hours can be allocated at will. Zhao Zheng entered this dungeon for the first time, and he was a little uncertain, so for the sake of insurance, he set the time at twenty minutes, and then rested for twenty minutes after every twenty minutes, so that it was enough for him to recover his strength.
After adjusting properly, Zhao Zheng sank his mind into the copy of the wooden house, his eyes went dark, and his body fell towards the mysterious void, losing his sense of heaviness. When he came back to his senses, he was in a huge wooden house.
This wooden house is larger than the Empty Ming Quiet Room, covering an area of 500 square meters, and it is spacious enough for two people to fight freely. The entire wooden house is made of wood, whether it is the roof or the ground, all of them are made of yellowed wooden planks. There are no lights in the wooden house, and the walls are surrounded by open windows, and the bright sunlight shines through the windows. There were no furnishings in the hut, only supplies such as cloth bags and kettles in the corners. In the main zhōngyāng of the wooden house, there stands a wooden man.
The wooden man is about 1.8 meters tall, more than a head taller than Zhao Zheng, it has no clothes on its body, its head, torso and limbs are all connected by wood, and the joints are equipped with organs, and the overall structure looks very dense. The wooden man's head was bare, and there were a pair of small black holes on his face that served as eyes, but there were no eyeballs in the black holes, and the black holes in them were very deep, and he didn't know what was hidden. On the chest of the wooden man, "Wu" is written in large cinnabar characters, which looks very imposing.
After the wooden man saw Zhao Zheng, the joints of his body immediately moved, the speed was as fast as lightning, and there was no sense of pause and stagnation, just as smooth as the movements of a real person. The wooden man opened his hands, pulled away his posture, and pressed his body center of gravity downward, he turned out to be more like a qualified martial artist than Zhao Zheng!
Seeing this, Zhao Zheng only felt surprised, and looked at the wooden man curiously, but he was not in a hurry to make a move.
The wooden man stared at Zhao Zheng, slowly stretched his hand forward, put his four fingers together, and moved towards Zhao Zheng, as if to say, "What are you still doing in a daze, fast forward move." ”
Zhao Zheng took a deep breath, although the wooden man is interesting, it is enough to look at it twice, he is not here for sightseeing, but for martial arts! He also pulled out his stance, palmed his hands together, one hand in front and one behind, and approached the wooden man step by step with his feet. He has not experienced actual combat, and his heart is inevitably nervous, and the closer he gets to the wooden man, the greater the pressure on his body.
The wooden man did not move until Zhao Zheng walked within a radius of one meter, then suddenly made a move, took a big step forward, and stretched out his hand to Zhao Zheng's wrist, using the move of "grabbing the wrist and pressing the arm" in the small grappling hand.
