The breeze blows and the earth warms up.

On the morning of one day, more than two months after the end of the year, the sun was shining and the remaining snow in the imperial capital was melting. The people's work schedule, the merchants walk, the chivalrous wandering, as in the past, is very lively.

In the west of the imperial capital, there is a deserted 'Inspector's Mansion' without any guards on duty, only four or five subordinates.

With the faint sound of 'whirring' wind whistling from inside, Zhao Zhou finished performing all the boxing skills and exhausting his strength on a wide practice field in the mansion, and walked to a stone table on the side of the field, while tasting a bowl of clear medicinal soup glowing with earthy yellow in the sun.

"A few days ago, the Holy Lord asked my father-in-law to give me this 500-year-old ginseng, which is really full of medicinal power. The three bowls of soup made from just one ginseng whisker were enough for me to practice boxing for a day, and I didn't have to eat any other food during the process, which saved a lot of time for eating. ”

Zhao Zhou served three bowls in a row, and while drinking the medicinal soup, with the digestion of gastrointestinal peristalsis, the medicinal power was quickly absorbed, and then converted into 'nutrients', which flowed through the blood of the five internal organs and six organs throughout the body.

Suddenly, a feeling of 'warmth' traveled all over Zhao Zhou's body, and the strength that was scattered when he practiced boxing just now instantly recovered at least about 'two percent'.

And the medicinal power in his blood cells continues to diffuse and absorb. The feeling of 'warmth' in myself has not diminished in the slightest.

Zhao Zhou was aware of this feeling, coupled with the example of drinking medicine in the past two days, and then he could conclude that he would not need to eat anything until this time tomorrow.

Drugs such as ginseng usually decay and melt into the soil after more than 300 years underground, which is basically not as mysterious as 4 or 500 years.

But this world may be nourished by spiritual energy, and ginseng generally has a long lifespan, like some uninhabited mountains and wilderness, but there are also many medicines that have become 'Tao' for more than four or five hundred years.

In particular, these aged 'Taoist medicines' are also called 'elixirs' by many monks, and they belong to the kind of rare treasures that are impossible to meet or sought.

They usually get one, and they all use it as a hanging, or bury it in the backyard of their Taoist temple, as a 'town heirloom'.

Similarly, the Holy Lord asked his father-in-law to give Zhao Zhou, a '536-year-old ginseng' that is rare in the treasury, not for Zhao Zhou to use in order to save time for eating, but to let Zhao Zhou use it as a life-saving medicine when he is unintentionally injured or in crisis.

But.

Zhao Zhou successfully melted the 'Fire Tribulation' for the second time two months ago, and after his own veins were slightly torn and regenerated, it was now time to 'grow his body' again.

At this time, he ate these precious objects to speed up the growth of his strength.

In this way, the strength is raised, in addition to allowing him to encounter some dangers, which can increase his chances of saving his life. If the strength is high, you can also clear the remnants of the Jianghu sect as soon as possible and get more good things.

However, according to the words of the Holy One, it is not called 'killing people and seizing treasures', but 'clearing the demons of the demon cult and establishing peace for the people!'" ’

Similarly, Zhao Zhou thought more clearly, knowing that if he only killed and didn't take it, he wouldn't be able to improve his own strength. To put it mildly, just by a mouth, which hero will listen to him, how can he do that notarization for the people.

Whereas.

Since he first passed the 'Feather Fire Tribulation', his own lifting strength rose to 30,000 before April, and he was a little 'stagnant', and the increase was very small.

But he opened it for the second time two months ago, and his muscles and flesh have regenerated vigorously.

Especially after he completely stabilized the second fire tribulation, his strength increased rapidly in the first thirty days, and his strength increased by two thousand catties!

However, after reaching 33,000 catties in the past few days, it has slowed down again, and it has been replaced by slow growth, but it is also about a dozen catties a day.

When Zhao Zhou found this situation, he could also feel that his talents had not yet reached the limit.

And he also thought about it, estimating that his strength would eventually rise to around 40,000, and then it would be completely finalized, and he could open a third fire robbery. Then try the 'Wind Disaster'.

Moreover, he also knew that if he wanted to increase his strength quickly, he had to eat good things.

"Since I got this ginseng, I can now boil nearly 30 catties of strength a day, which is twice as strong as the previous few days. It's just that this ginseng is only enough for me for a month. When you finish eating, you have to find the rest of the medicine. ”

Zhao Zhou finished calculating what he had gained in the past two months, and realized that he had regained his strength, and then began to play the boxing routines again, boiling up the strength and speeding up the absorption of the medicinal effect.

Similarly, in the past two months, after Zhao Zhou handed over the heads of the two elders of Xuan Ming on that day, he spent every day in practice, except for his father-in-law who came to give him ginseng a few days ago, or the seven princes often came to walk around, no one came to seek revenge on him, and no one came to him to talk to him.

But the people of the Hundred Losses Dao did not come to him. Zhao Zhou may feel that the Daoist is afraid of the masters in the imperial capital, so he doesn't dare to come, so he can only squat somewhere and wait for him to go out of the city.

However, the ministers and princes forgot about him. Zhao Zhou heard the Seven Princes say that they didn't say a word about themselves.

But to put it bluntly.

It's just that they didn't succeed in one blow, and they are also relatively 'faceless to speak', ready to wait for other opportunities.

Otherwise, they will send people to 'ask for advice' again and again, which is to tear their faces, and they will only let people on the rivers and lakes see their infighting jokes in the court.

After all, no matter how you say it, Zhao Zhou has now entered the court, so it can be regarded as their own people. At least before the death of the Holy Immortal, they will not do anything, at most isolate Zhao Zhou, and not share a trace of 'beautiful soup' from him.

To put it simply, there is a matter of taking advantage, and they will not be called Zhao Zhou. If there is something to do for nothing, it will not be called Zhao Zhou. Even some of the gatherings and feasts of the prince's ministers to contact the relationship between the veins, even if they are enemies called 'fighting for power', will not be called Zhao Zhou.

This is also on the surface, that is, he will not play with Zhao Zhou, let Zhao Zhou weigh it in his heart, and do things to be a little 'counting'. Now there is a saint in charge, and someone is helping him to support him, but in the future, he will have to change the 'sky', and the first person to crush to death is the tall man standing alone.

But!

Let these princes and ministers either be subtle or blatantly 'put pressure' on Zhao Zhou.

Zhao Zhou didn't have time to deal with them, in the past two months, in addition to melting the 'fire tribulation', he was practicing martial arts and round strength.

But it was also Zhao Zhou who was at home every day, but these ministers and princes mistakenly thought that Zhao Zhou was 'afraid' and didn't dare to pick the 'Liangzi' on both sides of the Jianghu court.

And under the idea of putting their own interests first, they are also going to come to Zhao Zhou in a few days to 'talk' to see if they can try to win over Zhao Zhou, which can be regarded as their own 'struggle for power'.

It's just that.

Zhao Zhou has now passed the stage of 'explosive growth of strength', and after learning that there is such an 'elixir' in this world, he is ready to start the plan of clearing the rivers and lakes and harvesting medicinal materials in advance, so that he can better 'evolve supernatural powers'.

"Now that the year has passed, it's time to pick a day and start to go up next to each other."

Sunset.

Zhao Zhou finished his own strength again, and after finishing in the shape of a dragon, he was ready to recover and then sharpen his strength. And since he practiced boxing, as long as he has nothing to do, it is like this, life is martial arts.

But when Zhao Zhou regained his strength, he suddenly heard a noise outside the courtyard, but after a dozen breaths, a person trotted to the outside of the practice field and said to Zhao Zhou: "Inspector, there is a person outside the courtyard, who calls himself Lin Pingzhi of the Fuwei Dart Bureau...."

The servant said, and he didn't know whether to pass the word or not. Because the person who talked to him was dressed as a 'Hanako', he was afraid that this 'Hanako' would make fun of himself. But I was afraid that my own inspector really knew the 'called Huazi', and then I was in a dilemma, so I came to report it head-on, and Zhao Zhou decided.

"It turned out that Lin Shaoxia was here."

Zhao Zhou also recovered his strength, he was idle, and when he heard that an acquaintance was coming, he went out to greet him, and at the same time asked his subordinates to come to a table, and he didn't wonder how Lin Pingzhi found it.

Because he didn't hide the fact that he killed the two elders of Xuan Ming. And in order to let the hundred damage Dao people find their own revenge, he also wrote the location of his mansion on the first floor on the list.

It can be described as very arrogant!

Just say that he, Zhao Zhou, wants to be the enemy of the whole rivers and lakes!

But it is also this practice that makes people on the rivers and lakes often come to the door of Zhao Zhou's courtyard to hang around, wanting to see what this 'Inspector Zhao' looks like. Over time, many people know where Zhao Zhou is.

Similarly, Lin Pingzhi has a mouth to ask, a foot to walk, and it is not surprising that he can find this place.

However.

When Zhao Zhou came to the outside of the courtyard, he saw that Lin Pingzhi no longer had the image of a son, but now he was in rags, and there were many bruises in the exposed places, but he was surprised, but his face did not move, but he smiled and said: "Lin Shaoxia."

"Zhao...."When Lin Ping saw Zhao Zhou, he was suddenly very excited and wanted to kneel on his knees, but he was easily put up by Zhao Zhou.

"Lin Shaoxia, if you have something to say, it's not like that." Zhao Zhou didn't care about Lin Pingzhi's black clothes, and motioned for him to enter the mansion before speaking.

And after Lin Pingzhi was set up by Zhao Zhou, and was held up in this blue brick and vermilion lacquer compound, he somehow remembered his Lin family compound, and suddenly felt sad from his heart, and prayed to Zhao Zhou with some choked up,

"The villain.. I came here today to plead with Zhao Qian... Inspector Zhao is in charge of the souls of the eighty-three people of the Lin family. Lin Pingzhi said, although he was a little choked, but he gritted his teeth even more, "They... They were all killed by Yu Zhenzi of the Iron Sword Gate...."

When Zhao Zhou heard this, he looked at the tattered clothes on Lin Pingzhi's body, thought about it for a while, and estimated that the Lin family was afraid that the 'Jade Zhenzi' of the Iron Sword Gate would be wiped out.

But.

Zhao Zhou remembered that he had stayed in the Lin family for a few days, took their family sword pedigree, and thought that since he was going to start cleaning the rivers and lakes, it would just start with this iron sword gate, especially this reason is also justified, 'killing people pays for their lives'.

Thereupon. Zhao Zhou thought about it like this, and his expression was correct, and he said to the sad Lin Pingzhi,

"Regardless of the reason for the Iron Sword Gate. This inspector will definitely visit the door in person to administer justice for the Lin family. ”
