On this day, Zhou Zheng was sitting in the Divine Medical Hall as usual, and a young man estimated to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old who had been queuing for a long time walked in with his head held high.

Zhou Zheng was suspicious in his heart, this person didn't look like a sick person.

However, since he had waited in line for so long, Zhou Zheng still asked him to sit down and check his pulse first.

The young man didn't sit down, but said loudly, "Demon Venerable, my name is Lin Shaopeng, I am just a cultivator at the middle level of the Heavenly Order, and Zhang Hammer, who was killed by you a few days ago, is my brother-in-law.

Today, I have a war letter to you! My wife and I are going to challenge you! If we lose, our husband and wife will bury themselves in the loess with our younger brother. If we win by luck, we don't dare to have any other extravagance, just ask the Demon Venerable to leave Blackwater City! ”

After speaking, he put the challenge book on the table with both hands, and without waiting for Zhou Zheng to say anything, he turned around and said goodbye.

Zhou Zhengda frowned. He didn't have to think about it to guess that this matter would spread all over the streets and alleys of Blackwater City in less than half an hour, making everyone know.

The more humble this Lin Shaopeng's attitude is, the more it makes it difficult for Zhou Zheng to ride a tiger!

He is only in the middle of the Heavenly Order, and Zhou is the Demon Venerable! People fought for their lives, but they just let him leave Blackwater City.

The appearance of a proper weak posture is enough to win the sympathy of most people!

Zhou Zheng is now in a dilemma!

If you don't accept the challenge this time. Lin Shaopeng will not give up, he will challenge three or four times. If, after the malicious guidance of well-intentioned people, the people of the whole city will unconsciously stand on Lin Shaopeng's side, and even Zhang Hammer's death will be clothed in a coat of justice!

This is what Zhou Zheng will never allow! Zhang Hammer killed Shao Hui, his death must be deserved!

However, the challenge was accepted. If you win, you will only add a grudge. If he loses, not only will his reputation plummet, but Shao Hui's death will become even more unclear and unfair.

Reputation is a thing, Zhou Zheng doesn't care very much. However, once he loses, it will be like a broken window effect, and the people who challenge him will be endless and annoying.

Moreover, with Zhou Zheng's current strength, it would be very difficult to deal with two mid-level Heavenly Rank monks, and the possibility of defeat was very high!

What to do?

Zhou Zheng's heart was turbulent. However, when he raised his eyes and saw a group of patients outside the door, he immediately dissipated the anxiety in his heart, calmly treated the next patient, and completely forgot what had just happened.

It was only after all the patients had been treated that he entered the back hall with the challenge book to find the Master.

Before he could speak, the master looked at him with a smile, "Don't be surprised!" Although it is still far from reaching the collapse of Mount Tai and the heart is not accelerating, it can be regarded as a small improvement. You feel it! ”

Zhou Zheng was confused, what did Master mean? I was not surprised by the changes, were you praising my state of mind about the war book just now? What do I feel? My heart? But I'm still very anxious!

Before Zhou Zheng could finish thinking about it, the spiritual power on his body suddenly flowed, and after penetrating his whole body, he returned to the sea of qi and was locked again.

But at that moment, Zhou Zheng obviously felt that his cultivation had improved to a higher level, and the Tongtai of his whole body made him feel like a fluttering immortal.

The most amazing thing is that the pressure of six thousand catties on his body disappeared in an instant. Without spiritual power, he could jump into the air and walk more than two feet in the wind. Tens of thousands of pounds of stone slabs, he can also lift them easily.

"Master, what's going on?" Zhou Zheng was amazed!

The old gentleman smiled, "You are cultivating your mind, and you have achieved a little success." ”

"Mind cultivation? What kind of mind to cultivate? Zhou Zheng was puzzled.

"People have seven emotions and six desires, joy, anger, sorrow, fear, love, evil, and desire.

"Isn't it, joy and anger are invisible?"

"It's not. Joy and anger are invisible, they are just good at covering up, not true cultivation. ”

"Master, then, what is mind cultivation?"

"You just unconsciously encountered something and calmed down, ignored it, and went to the doctor without distraction, this is the cultivation of the mind! You have just made a small gain in cultivating your mind, which has improved your overall realm. ”

"If you break the seven feelings, even if you succeed in cultivating your mind?"

"Yes and no! The absolute seven emotions are like stopping water, and it can only be said that the cultivation of the mind is half successful. ”

Zhou Zheng still doesn't understand a little, what is the direct relationship between cultivating the mind and improving the realm? The Seven Emotions are only considered to be half cultivated, so how should the other half be cultivated?

However, the old gentleman did not explain to him in depth, but began to ask him about his plans.

"Challenge book, do you plan to take it or not?"

"Pick it up!"

The old gentleman was not surprised, as if he had expected it completely.

"Why?"

"Give Shao Hui justice! In that court trial, they reversed black and white. Zhang Hammer is already dead, and they are still thinking about exonerating him! Now, they want to challenge the perpetrator of violence as a victim. I will not allow this! ”

"Good! What do you want to do? Want me to unravel your spiritual powers? ”

Seeing that Master had seen through his thoughts, Zhou Zheng hurriedly knelt down, "Master, I must win them!" Please also ask Master to unlock my spiritual power. ”

The old gentleman nodded, "Yes!" However, your spiritual power is locked and needs to be unlocked on your own. In other words, when your spiritual power is completely pure and completely fills the sea of qi, and your body senses can be unlocked, it will naturally come and it will be unlocked.

If, now, I forcibly help you untie it, not only will your previous efforts be in vain, but it will also hurt your foundation and even make your cultivation regressive. And these damages are irreversible, no matter how hard you work in the future, you won't be able to go any further! Have you figured it out? ”

"Nope!"

Zhou Zheng hurriedly shook his head, these consequences were something he didn't expect! Is it worth paying such a big price for the sake of a so-called justice?

However, when he saw Shao Mingjie, his heart instantly became firm.

This lonely child lost his father, and the culprit who caused all this, died and tried every possible way to escape the crime, which made him angry!

He gritted his teeth, "I've thought about it, Master!" People have gains and losses in this life, and they can't calculate everything. Please help me unlock my spiritual power! If I let my Dao heart be dusted, even if my cultivation does not regress, it will be difficult for me to move forward! ”

The old gentleman smiled, "Good! This is my Su Xi's disciple! ”

After speaking, the old gentleman patted Zhou Zheng on the body.

Zhou Zheng didn't feel the fluctuation of spiritual power, but there was an extra three thousand catties of pressure on his body.

"Master?" Zhou Zheng didn't know what Master meant by this?

"Now that you've learned boxing, teach them a good lesson with your fists! One punch and one heavy sky, you still don't understand the meaning of the title of the book, do you? The first move of the first type, invincible under the heavenly steps! The second move, beat the peak of the heavenly steps! The third move, raise your head and dare to hit the immortals! Boy, practice hard! ”

These few words completely shocked Zhou Zheng. When he hit Zhang with the first punch, he was already full of anticipation for the second punch. But he didn't expect that the second punch was even more powerful than he expected! And, the third punch, what kind of existence should it be?

Looking at Zhou Zheng's appearance of never seeing the world, the old gentleman thought to himself, boy, when you can punch three punches in a row, you won't be shocked to drop your jaw?!

With the guidance of the master, Zhou Zheng has a complete understanding in his heart. He's now been able to land a second punch and should have no problem tackling the challenge.

But just in case, he put the challenge time five days later. He has to fully adapt to the new 3,000 pounds of pressure within five days, and strive to be able to land a third punch!

Lin Shaopeng, who received the information that Zhou Zheng accepted the challenge, breathed a sigh of relief, and just wanted to tell Zhang Xian the good news, but Zhang Hong blocked the door.

"I have met Zhou Zheng, he is the one who saved our mother and son. We can't fight him! ”

"Why?"

"He's our benefactor! Without him, You'er might have... How can I make a move on my benefactor? ”

"Hong'er, he is Langzhong, saving people is a matter of course! Besides, didn't you say that he took the money? Since the money is received, it means that the love and righteousness are clear. We don't owe him anything! ”

"Lin Lang, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Hong looked at Lin Shaopeng in surprise, "Our children's lives are so worthless?" A few taels of silver can clear the grace of saving lives? For the sake of a person who has done evil, you have to meet our benefactor with a sword? ”

Lin Shaopeng was also a little angry, "Hong'er, what are you doing?" That's your brother! Zhou Zheng is just an outsider, can't you tell which is more important? ”

"I don't care, I won't go when I fight! To fight, you fight alone! "Zhang Hong is very stubborn!

Lin Shaopeng roared, "If I am killed, you will not care about it?" ”

This voice shocked Zhang Hong.

Lin Shaopeng struck while the iron was hot, "Hong'er, I have already sent the challenge book, and Zhou Zheng has already responded!" If I'm the only one to go, you'll wait to collect my body!" Remember, burying me and my brother together, I can also have an explanation for my father-in-law! ”

Zhang Hong's tears rolled down suddenly, "No! I won't let you go, none of us will go! ”

"Silly daughter-in-law, now that the whole city knows, how can you do it if you don't go?"

Zhang Hong was a little panicked, "Let's not care about the rumors outside!" Otherwise, let's go now, go far away, and never come back! ”

As he spoke, he was about to go into the house to pack his things, but he was dragged by Lin Shaopeng.

"Hong'er, if I leave now, I, Lin Shaopeng, will not be able to raise my head for the rest of my life! You might as well kill me now!" ”

Zhang Hong was stunned and cried. She's at a loss right now!

However, Lin Shaopeng did not relented at all, and coldly left the next sentence, "I'll go to my father-in-law now." Are you willing to fight alongside me, or collect my body, you can do it yourself! ”

Then, leaving the heartbroken Zhang Hong, he decided to go.

Seeing Lin Shaopeng walk into the study with a gloomy face, Zhang Xian had a premonition that something was wrong. He hurriedly asked, "Zhou Zheng refused?" ”

"No, he agreed! However, it was five days later that the location was chosen by us. ”

"Great! I will now arrange for Liu Mozhi to find a place that is in the limelight as your arena. You, what's wrong? ”

Seeing Lin Shaopeng's face different, he immediately guessed that it was his girl's problem.

"Hong'er recognized Zhou Zheng?"

"That's right! She won't come with me! Lin Shaopeng was very disappointed.

"Normal! However, a way must be found to force her to go! Zhang Xian knows his daughter well, and knows that once the girl loses her temper, the nine cows will not be able to pull it back!

"Forced? I'm forced to die, but she doesn't mean to return yet! Speaking of this, he suddenly realized that Zhou Zheng is now in full swing, and he is inferior to him everywhere, will Zhang Hong change his mind?

Zhang Xian hurriedly comforted, "I know that girl best, don't look at what she says now, in fact, she is soft!" As long as you show up on time, she'll definitely go! ”

Lin Shaopeng shook his head, "She won't watch me die, I believe that." However, she won't fight either! I'm worried that she will go to Zhou Zheng in private. ”

"Looking for Zhou Zheng? Do? ”

"Withdraw the challenge!"

Zhang Xian was taken aback, driving away Zhou was a crucial step in their plan, if Zhang Hong sabotaged it, the plan would be greatly reduced, or even the previous efforts would be wasted.

"No! You must not let Hong'er come by her temperament! Zhang Xian thought for a moment, "Come on, without my order, the young lady is not allowed to leave the house one step!" ”

The guards outside the door took the order.

However, Lin Shaopeng still shook his head, "Father-in-law, apart from you coming forward in person, how can those guards stop Hong'er?" ”

Zhang Xian thought so, but he couldn't block his daughter's door every day, right? There's a whole bunch of things to take care of for him. Even if he has a heart, he can't do it!

Just when Zhang Xian and Lin Shaopeng were worried, Liu Mozhi asked to see him.

He first reported to Zhang Xian the progress of the two days, and everything went smoothly as planned. This made Zhang Xian's mood feel a lot more relaxed, and he couldn't help but be impressed by Liu Mozhi.

After the three of them finished speaking, they couldn't help but talk about Zhang Hong again. Liu Mozhi hesitated for a long time, but he didn't dare to say it when he had an idea.

Zhang Xian's face sank, "Say anything and forgive you for your innocence, say it!" ”

Liu Mozhi licked his lips, "Miss is most distressed by Miss Xiao." If the little lady is kidnapped by Zhou Zheng, the young lady will definitely find him desperately! ”

Lin Shaopeng stood up and couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Father-in-law, this is a solution." Hong'er cares about You'er the most! If she knew that Zhou Zheng had kidnapped You'er the day before the challenge, she would definitely go crazy and fight with Zhou Zheng! However, how can Zhou Zheng kidnap You'er? ”

Liu Mozhi lowered his head, his eyes full of contempt. I thought, is this still the child's father? How can anyone be kidnapped with a child?

However, this look of contempt flashed and did not allow anyone to notice.

Liu Mozhi hurriedly spoke, "Actually, you don't really need to let Zhou Zheng hijack it, it's fake, as long as you can make Miss believe it!" ”

Zhang Xian was thoughtful, he looked up at Liu Mozhi, "Tell me about your plan specifically." ”

"Commander, I think so. Find a day to let the young lady leave the Commander's Mansion and go around, and this uncle will be able to do it. Then, the commander also found an excuse to leave the mansion. When the time comes, I will arrange for a master to rob the little lady, and then hide the little lady.

Leave a letter when you leave. The general meaning is that the young lady and the aunt can't win in the challenge, but can only admit defeat.

Letters, let's imitate Zhou Zheng's handwriting. This is not difficult, he prescribes medicine every day, spends money to buy a few, and then finds a master of imitation.

Then, just before the challenge, inform the young lady that the little young lady has been rescued by the commander!

In this way, the young lady has no worries, and she hates Zhou Zheng a lot, and she will definitely go all out to cooperate with her uncle and kill Zhou Zheng. ”

Zhang Xian was overjoyed after hearing this. The three of them had an in-depth discussion on the details, and then acted according to the plan!
