The feeling of taking a medicated bath is very strange.

It's like there are countless little hands, rubbing against their own flesh and skin.

There seemed to be some kind of invisible air current, which ran down every pore on his body and drilled into his body.

And as those invisible air currents penetrated into his muscles, Shen Lang only felt that every muscle in his body seemed to be violently hammered, stretched, and twisted by invisible forces, giving him the illusion that his muscles were all iron and were being folded and forged.

When the medicinal liquid turned gray and black, the strange medicinal fragrance dissipated, and all kinds of strange sensations inside and outside the body disappeared, Shen Lang came out of the bath bucket, lifted a bucket of cold water, washed away the remaining medicinal juice on his body, put on his clothes, came to the courtyard, put on a posture, and punched.

When he finished practicing boxing tricks and was sweating profusely and feeling hot all over, Shen Lang suddenly felt a strange feeling surging up in the depths of his body. He instinctively followed that feeling by kicking his legs, twisting his legs, sending shoulders, and throwing punches.

Syllable!

A crisp sound erupted from the front of the fist.

After three days of hard training.

Shen Lang finally integrated the strength of his whole body, twisted it into one, and made the first empty sound, officially stepping into the realm of the ninth rank of martial arts.

Well, it's just a new product, and it can't be considered a big success.

Because he was able to make this empty sound after practicing a complete set of thirteen moves to practice physical boxing.

And the martial artist of the Nine Rank Dacheng, he only needs to charge up a little and make a killing move, he can make a sound in the air, and he doesn't need to warm up for so long with thirteen moves like him.

After that, Shen Lang tried to punch in the same posture while recalling the feeling just now, but he always only made a whirring sound, without that kind of crisp and neat explosion.

After thinking about it for a while, he started a boxing fight again, and when the thirteen punches were finished, he punched again with the instinct that gushed out of his body, and sure enough, there was another explosion.

"Tsk, although it takes thirteen warm-up moves to make an empty sound, it is finally officially incorporated. Also, I seem to have a lot more strength than the average person......"

The hallmark of the Nine Rank Martial Arts is to play the whole strength, twist the muscle strength of the whole body into a strand, and gather it at one point to explode.

But those who are also full of strength, born with great strength, and even born with divine power, must be stronger than ordinary martial artists.

Shen Lang is not a person with natural power, although his strength is greater than that of ordinary people, but it is the explosive power brought by agility enhancement, which belongs to the benefit of the secondary belt.

But at this moment, he felt that he was much stronger than three days ago, and tried to move a stone bench weighing hundreds of pounds in the yard, but with a sudden force of both hands, he moved it off the ground, and with another struggle, he lifted the stone bench above his head.

Lifting a hundred catties, the surface is still quite smooth, there is no gripper, and it is not easy to grab the stone bench, Shen Lang felt that his strength was already quite good.

After that, he put down the stone bench, struck while the iron was hot, and consolidated the cultivation that had just been introduced, and it was not too early to see that it was not early, and he had to go to work tomorrow, so he hastily took a cold shower, rinsed his mouth with a pig sideburn toothbrush dipped in green salt, and went to bed.

At night, Shen Lang slept soundly, and Xiao Zhao lay on his chest and slept very sweetly.

Only the small fish in the pond in the yard, spitting bubbles with resentment:

[I'm going to the house too!] Stupid Shen Lang, buy me a fish tank......]

……

Early the next morning, Shen Lang changed into the uniform of the official issued by the yamen, wore a square hat on his head, and hung a single knife on his waist.

Xiao Zhao squatted on the wall and waved a small front paw to say goodbye to him: [Come back early! 】

Shen Lang waved his hand:

"Be obedient at home, help take care of the little fish, it can't be like you, it can move freely."

【Okay!】 】

I went to the yamen and got to know my colleagues again - in fact, my colleagues had known him for a long time, after all, when Wangjiazhuang was exterminated before, the fast catchers and officials of Changsheng County almost came out of the nest.

Therefore, everyone knows this patient who relied on a kitten to get the blue eyes of Lord Mu, and even received her care and recommended him to the county lord by handwriting.

Regarding the fact that Shen Lang relied on a kitten to hug Muda Mu's thigh, the officials were naturally envious and jealous, but there was no way, who told them not to raise a kitten that could only get the blue eyes of Muda people?

After greeting his colleagues amicably, Shen Lang followed Zhu Hu to patrol the street.

……

"Most of the things we usually do in these counties are just trivial things such as patrolling the streets, maintaining law and order, and catching thieves. Like the big battle that killed people like the extermination of Wangjiazhuang, to be honest, I was arrested for seven years, and I ran into such a once.

"Speaking of which, in recent years, the security of our Changsheng County has been much worse than before. According to my father, when he was young, whether in the city or the countryside, it was difficult to find one or two murders a year. How can it be like now, not only are there murders in the city and countryside, but there are also big thieves like Wangjiazhuang......

"Actually, our Changsheng County is quite good, after all, it is a rare remote and poor county in Yingzhou Prefecture, and there are not many scum interested in us. Those coastal counties in the southeast of the Yingzhou Peninsula, as well as the capital city of Yingzhou, are called a group of demons dancing......

"Tsk, since the opening of the sea in Yingzhou, our eastern land can be said to be the world is declining, and people's hearts are corrupted."

is quite a bustling street market, Zhu Hu took Shen Lang to familiarize himself with the streets, and told him about the ancients.

Shen Lang, who wants to know more information, of course, has to be interesting:

"Yingzhou opens the sea? How so? ”

Zhu Hu cleared his throat and opened his eyebrows:

"Brother Shen, do you know how big our world is? Okay, you don't remember, then brother, I'll talk to you.

"We are the largest country in the east of the earth, standing at the east pole of the earth, and we are the largest country with a population of 500 million.

"But although the eastern land is large, it is only a corner of the world. In addition to Dachu, there are many other countries.

"The island country of Izumo outside of the East China Sea is too small to talk about it; The small country in Nanyang that is fragmented and unclimated, let's not talk about it. Just to the west of the Western Regions, and further west to the far west, there is a land of the Western Continent. And there were many nations on the land of Nassi. Because it is far away from our Great Chu, it is called 'Western countries'. ”

"The Western countries, although they do not have a unified empire with a vast territory and a population of hundreds of millions like my Great Chu, they should not be underestimated. It not only has a perfect cultivation system like my Great Chu, but also has strong industrial and commercial strength. And they are also ambitious and predatory.

"Because there are grassland barbarians in the north and desert bandits in the west, I often harass the border passes and robs the people, so since the founding of the country a hundred years ago, I have always paid more attention to land power and stationed heavy troops in the Western Regions and Northern Xinjiang. For the southeast coast, not much attention is paid to it.

As a result, when the imperial court found that the seafood from the southeast coast was increasing year by year, and the items from foreign oceans were becoming more and more varied, and finally turned its attention to the sea, it was found that over the past hundred years, several large Western countries had developed industry and commerce, seafaring and colonizing, and continued to advance eastward, and had actually expanded their power to Nanyang, occupying many colonies in Nanyang.

"Only then did the imperial court begin to pay attention to the South Seas, and twenty-five years ago, the sea was opened in Yingzhou. On the one hand, it supports and encourages maritime merchants to trade with Western countries, explores the details of Western countries, learns from their strengths, absorbs and learns from Western practical knowledge and technology, and on the other hand, builds a navy, cruises the South Seas, declares national strength, maintains vassals and overseas Chinese, and expands the influence of Great Chu in the South Seas.

"Twenty-five years after the opening of Yingzhou, the influence of the imperial court in Nanyang has increased significantly, and even helped a small vassal state that had been destroyed to successfully restore the country. And the more prosperous maritime trade has also made Yingzhou's industries prosperous and prosperous.

"But while there are many benefits to opening the sea, there are also many disadvantages.

"Many people go overseas to do business, their horizons are broadened, they earn more money, their hearts are wild and dirty, and they begin to pursue taboos that should not be touched, and even go to serve evil gods. Some people, who do not want to go to sea to take risks, and are greedy for the wealth of maritime merchants, rely on their family power to seize by force. There are also some people who have no power and power and want to get something for nothing, so they start that business without capital......

"In short, as the years have passed, Yingzhou has become more and more prosperous, the imperial court has become more and more prosperous, and the country has seen a thriving situation, but this moral and human heart seems to be constantly declining......

"Brother Shen, do you know that Master Mu originally served in the Criminal Department of the Beijing Division, why did he travel thousands of miles to Yingzhou in person this time?"
