Chapter 20: Night Knocks at the Door
September 26, fine.
Morning.
In the garden pavilion, facing the morning sun, two people admire the fish in the pond that keep spitting bubbles.
"Real person, failed."
"Failed? Have the people sent to White Python Mountain returned? ”
"Nope. I haven't come back now, I'm afraid something has happened! ”
"Send it again!"
"Good!"
"Let's talk about the situation of those people who went to White Python Mountain again."
"Okay real person!" This is an old man, his robe is black and gold-trimmed, giving people a deep and noble feeling, he groaned a little, and then told what he knew again, "Six people went, two were outside, one person, that is, Jiang Chen chased the fox, and the white fox was taken to the depths of the White Python Mountain by Yunying with the white fox, and the other three followed over the mountain. The next day, when the three of them found Jiang Chen, the other party had already captured the white fox and then returned. Secretly probing, the tone of several people is like this. As for the details of actually catching the white fox, I'm afraid only Jiang Chen knows. ”
"He's only a third-tier martial artist, right?"
"Yes, it's not long since I stepped into the third floor, I'm sure."
"The third layer is not long, even if Tian Tian is injured, it is not something he can deal with, besides......" The real person paused, and said hatefully, "Capture him back, at all costs." ”
"Real person, at this juncture, it is not appropriate to have extraneous branches, if it is tracked down by the Sky Survey Tower and finds clues, it will not be an ordinary trouble."
"Tian Tian was caught in White Python Mountain, or was he a little guy with a third layer of martial arts, he shouldn't have it anyway. I had a bad feeling that if it wasn't an accident, it would be a big problem. Catch, to live, no matter what the cost. ”
"If that's the case, the inside of the Sky Survey Tower must also be carefully investigated."
"You can use all the chess pieces, don't be reluctant at such a juncture."
"Real person, I understand the severity."
Sky Survey Tower, in the dormitory.
Jiang Chen had already woken up and was looking at the system information.
Name: Jiang Chen
Qi Refining: 4th Floor (Week: 101+64)
Refining Body: Double (Forging Muscles and Bones: 42+32)
Alchemy: Tier 0 (8+110)
Talents: None
Exercises: Xuan Yuan Jin, Bull Demon Refining Body Skills, Thirty-six Slashes of the Wind, Chasing the Wind Step
Good deeds: 10
captured Yang Lei, although he died in the end, it can be judged that he was captured alive.
Second-level sin, Jiang Chen also received a 20% attribute reward from the other party, so he chose to practice qi and got 64 points.
Two points of good deeds.
"Why did you assassinate me?" Jiang Chen was puzzled, "Is it really just revenge?" ”
After thinking about it, I don't know the point.
Just consume one merit point and start looking at the other party's major events in the past month.
One: On September 2, as a secret guard guarding the mansion, it was not appropriate to show his head, but the heat in his lower abdomen spread wildly, and he couldn't help but sneak out of the mansion again and sneak into someone's house. After harming a person's family, he was arranged to die by accidentally ingesting rat poison.
Second: On September 11, when he noticed that the old man and concubine secretly watched him practice, he took off his shirt to show off his strong muscles, and he also intended to let his lower body stand upright.
Third: On September 25, I listened to the master's orders to capture a sky patrol guard alive.
Jiang Chen looked angry and strange.
"Why did you capture me alive? If it's for revenge, shouldn't you just kill it? Do you want to torture me to vent my hatred? He is a dog of the sun, and sooner or later he will catch you all and hang you up. ”
muttered, and suppressed the thought.
As for memory regression? But no, a person who executes an order will be told the real reason? No!
Push the door and go out.
The morning air is exceptionally cool, take a deep breath, and the whole person is refreshed.
I found Mr. Liu and said that the yard needed to be cleaned up, and he wanted to go back, so he wouldn't come in the morning.
"You don't have to come today, get a good night's sleep, and rest." Liu Lao nodded, then took out a booklet from his arms and handed it over, "This is a secret method that I got privately, you can try it when you practice." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Liu!" Jiang Chen solemnly put it away and said goodbye.
There are not many pedestrians on the street.
Jiang Chen walked leisurely, came to Lao Zhang's breakfast shop and sat down.
"Brother Chen, is it still the same?"
"A drawer of steamed buns, two tea eggs, and a bowl of tofu brain, add sugar."
"Okay!"
Lao Zhang Yinghe was in harmony and had already brought the buns up.
Jiang Chen ate slowly.
There are also a lot of people next to him, and a few acquaintances are idle.
"Lao Zhang, where did you go a few days ago? You're not here, the buns are a little bit off. An old customer asked.
"Alas, I had a headache, so I rested for two days." Lao Zhang smiled and said, "No, I'll come over right away." ”
"I like your mouth, if you are not here in the future, then my mouth will suffer."
"Strive to be one step behind you."
"Haha, this is good, when you leave, you can drink a bowl of your Hu spicy soup, and it won't be cold when you get down."
Talking and laughing, it is more lively.
Jiang Chen finished eating, put down the money, and walked home leisurely.
took out the book given by Liu Lao, opened it and saw that it was a secret method called Turtle Breath Gong, if the cultivation was successful, it could conceal the breath, and even achieve a state of suspended animation.
This kind of secret method can not be practiced in a day, and after memorizing it, it will be put down for the time being.
In the yard, Jiang Chen first carefully cleaned up the bloodstains, otherwise he would be vulnerable to mosquitoes and flies, and then repaired the windows, re-nailed them, and found window paper to paste them.
I don't see much work, but I am busy until the third pole of the day.
Jiang Chen drank a bowl of tea and then began to practice.
Cultivating the Bull Demon Steel Fist.
As long as he cultivates, he will improve, whether it is his self-feeling or the system display, it is obvious, which makes him want to stop.
What greater joy could there be than hard work?
It didn't stop until noon.
"Is it at home or outside?"
Jiang Chen was a little entangled.
To eat at home, you also have to light a fire, wash vegetables, cook, and wash dishes and chopsticks.
Thinking of this, he walked out without hesitation.
"Lack of a hostess!"
Jiang Chen sighed lightly.
Just going out to eat is also a waste of time.
When I came back after lunch, I sat in the shade of the tree in the yard and squinted for a while.
A small nap is also a rare enjoyment.
When I woke up and washed my face, I continued to practice the Bull Demon Steel Fist.
At sunset, the courtyard gate was pushed open.
"Brother Chen, you can skip work." Hou Dali walked in, holding a pocket in his hand, and the aroma of halogen emanated from it, which was quite tempting, "You are not here today, I am being stared at even more fiercely by the old one-eyed, and I really live like a year." ”
As he spoke, he walked to the kitchen, took out a few plates, and began to put the dishes in.
"An elbow, cut a pound of pig face, a meat sausage, plus a cold dish platter, Brother Chen, how about it, it's interesting enough!" Hou Dali beckoned, "Hurry up and make tea." ”
"Interesting, I'm wondering where to eat." Jiang Chen made a pot of tea and brought it out, "Being taught by Liu Lao, you can steal the fun." By the way, your winnings weren't handed in? ”
"The old lady said that half of the money she earned will be handed over to support the family, and the rest will be made at will!"
"You're being treated like a pillar!"
"Who's to say it's not, alas, I'm a little worried."
"Knowing that you are worried is the only way to really grow up."
"When I was young, I wanted to grow up, and when I grew up, I realized how happy I was when I was a child." Hou Dali was moved, "Brother Chen, what happened last night?" You were attacked? ”
"Hmm!" Jiang Chen simply said the matter again, without mentioning Liu Lao.
"You guy, the dormitory you said, but you turned around and came back, you are deceiving my feelings." Hou Dali snorted, "I'm not leaving tonight." ”
"If you're here, I'll be in danger."
"Brother Chen, you are a buried person, even if I can't help, I won't hold you back! Well, since you insist on living at home, you must be sure, and I won't worry about it. But if there's anything I can do to help, I'll say it. ”
"Isn't that just helping?"
Jiang Chen pointed to the food on the table.
Hou Dali rolled his eyes.
When you have eaten and drunk enough, you must take your leave.
"Take the garbage away for me!"
"I, I, I ......"
Hou grinded his teeth vigorously and walked out with a torn paper bag.
The courtyard was quiet again.
After resting for a while and being full, Jiang Chen cultivated again.
It's still the Bull Demon Steel Fist.
If others follow his practice, even if they can persevere, they will be left with a dark wound.
Refining is too hurtful.
The night grew darker.
"May tonight be peaceful!"
The cultivation was over, Jiang Chen looked up, and returned to the house.
He sat down as he had done last night, and then checked on himself.
Name: Jiang Chen
Qi Refining: 4th Floor (Week: 101+64)
Refining Body: Double (Forging Muscles and Bones: 50+24)
Alchemy: Tier 0 (8+110)
Talents: None
Exercises: Xuan Yuan Jin, Bull Demon Refining Body Skills, Thirty-six Slashes of the Wind, Chasing the Wind Step
Deeds: 9
The refining body absorbed a full eight points.
The progress has been enormous.
Although the situation of the Bull Demon Steel Fist is not shown, it is definitely small.
This is the body refining method, but it can't change the fact that it is a fist method.
If it's a boxing technique, it can't change the aggressive characteristics, not to mention a fierce fist, which can be regarded as a joint gain.
"It's getting closer and closer to the peak of the second body, according to this situation, it will take three days at most to complete the muscles and bones, once you enter the third level of refining the body, not to mention anything else, your defense will increase greatly."
Jiang Chen closed his eyes in satisfaction.
Slowly running Xuan Yuan Jin, but also retained most of his mind to be wary of the movement outside.
The night is getting darker.
The sound of insects is gradually decreasing.
There was a sudden movement in the courtyard, followed by a rapid knock on the door.
Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes.
