Chapter 4 Guanhu County

In the crackling rainstorm, Zhang Shan walked through the street holding an oil-paper umbrella.

The streets are lined with merchants, and the doors are wide open, but there are few pedestrians passing by.

They all hide in their homes or teahouses and inns to hide from the rain.

Zhang Shan held a string of rock sugar gourds in his hand, his cheeks bulged from time to time, he took the hawthorn fruit wrapped in maltose syrup, and did not bite, sipping it all the way, letting it collide and squeeze in his mouth, and the sweet and sour taste flowed through his tongue and throat.

"It's been a day and a night, and I still haven't had the slightest feeling of hunger, and I am full of physical strength and energy."

"I can already preliminarily judge that after eating Baibao Pig at that time, the critical hit system critique is the energy obtained, and this energy will not blow up my body, but will be stored in my body in some form, and it will be slowly consumed over time."

"The energy provided by ten meals of Baibao Pig, if I don't cultivate, is enough for me not to eat or drink for thirty days."

Zhang Shan made a preliminary judgment, and the specific situation depends on whether there will be any future troubles.

Guess boldly, verify carefully, and make decisions carefully.

A day ago, Zhang Shan chose a task in the mission hall that suited his current strength.

The mission is to investigate the perpetrators of many recent tragic cases in Guanhu County.

Recently, people in Guanhu County have died tragically, and the death is miserable, and there are 20 corpses found on the surface, and how many people have died in secret is a mystery, and no one can guarantee how many of the missing people have been missing because of this incident.

In charge of Guanhu County is Lifutangkou under the Shuidian Gang.

Twenty people died in Guanhu County, and Lifu Tangkou didn't care at all.

They established and controlled Guanhu County for the sake of profit, not for the sake of justice for the people living in Guanhu County.

But the overlord of this region is the true Yuanguan!

Although Li Xin had no interest in ruling over these more than 50 million people, and allowed other forces to earn a living within the sphere of influence of Zhenyuanguan, no one dared to ignore the rules he had set.

One of them is that mortals must not be slaughtered at will, and this kind of incident of a large number of mortals dying for no reason must be reported to the True Yuan Concept and a reasonable explanation must be given.

If you don't want to spend effort investigating, you can pay the price and post it to the True Yuan Temple Mission Hall in the form of a task.

In addition, those who conceal it and do not report it will be killed!

Under this rule, there are bloody corpses.

The mountain of corpses and the sea of blood made the forces that begged for a living in the territory of Zhenyuanguan have to pay attention.

"Tragedy." Zhang Shan muttered in his heart.

"It's impossible to find out anything with the strength of Lifu Tangkou, and behind them is the entire Shuidian Gang."

"Specially ran to the mission hall to release the task, either because they were too lazy to bother with it, or because there was something involved in it that they didn't want to touch."

Both situations are possible, and this kind of thing has happened many times in the past, and some of them involve people who are difficult to deal with by various forces, and the disciples of the True Yuan Guan have no concerns about this.

Even if the strength of each force is definitely much stronger than that of ordinary disciples of the True Yuan Concept, just the three words of the True Yuan Concept, in the territory of the True Yuan Concept, it is enough for the disciples of the True Yuan Sect to have different privileges.

This is also the case, so Zhang Shan will take on this task that may be troublesome.

"The task pays well, it just so happens that I need sufficient cultivation resources now, in case something is not harmonious, it's a big deal to give up this task, pat my ass and leave."

The True Yuan Concept only requires disciples to complete three tasks every year, and it doesn't matter if the task fails or gives up, as long as the three tasks are successfully completed.

For his own disciples and external forces, the True Yuan Concept is completely different.

Extremely short-guarding!

In the rainstorm, Zhang Shan walked in front of a martial arts hall.

The plaque reads the words "Lee's Martial Arts".

When he arrived in Guanhu County, Zhang Shan did not immediately go to Lifutangkou, but came here first.

Knocking on the door of the martial arts hall and waiting for a while, someone came to open the door, it was a hairy boy in his early eleven or twelve.

He looked at Zhang Shan with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"Is your pavilion owner Li Chong here? He was tired of informing him, and Zhang Shan, the old man of Zhenyuanguan, came to visit. Zhang Shan said with a smile.

In the eighteenth year of Zhenyuanguan, he is just a little transparent, but he also has a group of acquaintances.

Some are like Wang Yang, who still practice in the Zhenyuan Guanguan, and some are begging for a living outside the Guanguan, and Li Chong is the latter.

The hairy boy was shocked, and hurriedly ran inside, shouting loudly for master, master............

"Reckless." Zhang Shanle is happy.

After a while, Li Chong trotted out, his face full of joy.

"Brother Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." Zhang Shan had a bright smile on his face.

"Little fan, it's really you." Li Chong's joy was mixed with surprise.

"Li Lao Pao! Don't call me by my nickname! Zhang Shan's face turned sharply, and his smile suddenly became hideous.

"Little fan!" Li Chong shouted again.

"Damn!"

"! You actually used a monkey to steal peaches! ”

……

After half a cup of tea, the Li Martial Arts Hall was in a mess.

Zhang Shan got down from Li Chong, and Li Chong under him had a blue nose and swollen face, and his clothes were disheveled, obviously bearing the storm that he should not have endured.

"Hey, you're so ruthless! In front of my disciples, they don't know how to save some face for me. In the hall, Li Chong rubbed his face and complained.

"You can't, old cannon."

"I also want to keep my hand, but you can fall down with just two punches, and I can't help it." Zhang Shan spread his hands with a helpless expression, but Li Chong felt that Zhang Shan was laughing.

Li Chong didn't speak, but raised two fingers in respect.

Suddenly, the two of them laughed in unison.

The rustiness after a long reunion dissipated under a fight.

"Speaking of which, the punches you just made were really powerful, what kind of cultivation are you doing now?" Li Chong asked, just after the fight, but seeing the slight knowledge, he was completely suppressed and had no power to resist, which can already explain a lot of things.

"The day after tomorrow is fourfold." Zhang Shan did not hide it.

"Yes." Li Chong nodded, there was a little loss in his eyes, he was only an acquired double until now.

Zhang Shan patted Li Chong on the shoulder.

"Okay, old cannon, you and I haven't seen each other for so long, tell me how you've spent all these years."

"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile yet, and I accepted the qualifications a long time ago."

The loss in Li Chong's eyes disappeared, he had accepted his poor qualifications a long time ago, and the feeling of loss was only a little bit, otherwise he would not have left Zhenyuan Guan and opened a small martial arts hall in Guanhu County.

There are many such disciples in the True Yuan Concept.

At that time, the group of orphans ranged from eleven or twelve years old to infants.

Qualifications vary.

There are geniuses and mediocre people.

In the past eighteen years, some people have already recultivated in the day after tomorrow, and some people have not even broken through the acquired realm.

The differences in qualifications are so varied.

And Zhang Shan, Li Chong, and Wang Yang are the assets of Chinese people, not complete rotten wood, nor geniuses.

There is enough talent to break through from a mortal to an acquired martial artist, but there is not enough talent to go further.

Even the assets of Chinese people are divided into several levels.

Wang Yang is a middle-class asset, relying on himself, he has already touched the edge of the acquired fivefold.

Zhang Shan is slightly inferior to Wang Yang, but he has also cultivated to the acquired triple.

Li Chong's qualifications belong to the middle and lower, and he has only cultivated to the acquired triple in eighteen years, and there is still some distance from touching the edge of the acquired triple level.

This is a sad topic, Zhang Shan and Li Chong kicked it away and talked about the years after Li Chong left Zhenyuan Temple.
