Chapter 31 Undercurrent
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was more than ten days later.
In the middle of the night, there were no stars in the sky, only a waning moon.
In the calm Jinsha Bay, there is a awning boat floating on the water.
Whoops!
A figure jumped out of the water, with the momentum of a carp jumping over a dragon's gate. In an instant, it jumped out of the water to a height of more than ten meters, then rolled in the air and landed straight on the awning boat.
This figure is Zhou Shan.
After taking blood lotus, he dived into deep water to practice. With the help of the water pressure of deep water squeezing his body, when transporting qi and blood, he could make the qi and blood integrate into the skin and muscles faster.
This is also one of the practice methods recorded in Guixi Gong.
Different martial arts have different training methods.
When the Turtle Breathing Technique is practiced in water, the energy and blood can be transported much faster than on land.
Some martial arts require someone to hit repeatedly with a wooden stick to break the skin.
For example, the Black Iron Martial Arts School, one of the two major martial arts schools that has been open in the outer city for more than ten years, practices a martial art called Iron Cloth Shirt, which is a horizontal and hard skill. The training method is very simple. It starts with lifting stones. After the tun beats to build up the energy and qi and blood throughout the body, the person is given wooden sticks, whips, etc. to repeatedly beat the chest, abdomen, lower back, etc.
As long as you persist for two or three years, you will be able to reach the point where the skin is tough and hard to be damaged by a knife.
But in the process of practicing, you need to apply the unique secret medicine of the Black Iron Martial Arts School every day. If you don't apply the secret medicine, you will not be able to get out of bed after one day of practice.
After a few times, people will become useless.
Zhou Shan can see inside and can detect any changes in his body immediately.
With a thought, he opened the properties panel.
Name: Zhou Shan
Talent: Infinite Spirit (every day, one point of spiritual attribute will be added)
Strength: 22
Defense: 26
Agility: 15
Constitution: 50
Spirit: 194
Martial Arts: Turtle Breathing Technique/Fourth Level (85.2%), Soul Deterrence Technique/Three Levels (12%), Stone Fist/Dacheng (54%), Swimming Fish Movement/Perfection
"After eating all the Baozhi Blood Lotus, although the Turtle Breath Kung Fu has not broken through to the fifth level, it is not far behind."
Zhou Shan looked at the properties panel.
The fourth to sixth levels of Turtle Breath Kung Fu all belong to the skin-grinding realm.
Each of these three layers corresponds to a stage, namely cowhide, stone skin and iron skin.
At this time, he had already reached the level of cowhide.
The defense attribute has been greatly improved, reaching '26', which has exceeded the strength attribute.
Once you break through to the fifth level, the defense attribute will inevitably exceed '30'.
The soul-destroying technique has reached the third level.
The third level of Soul Deterrence Technique can outline illusions and form illusions.
After hypnotizing the red-scaled snake again and again, and subtly, and at the same time reaching the third level of the soul-deterring technique, Zhou Shan's image outlined in front of the red-scaled snake was that of a demonic snake that transformed into a demon.
He subdued the red-scaled snake in a disguised manner, and asked the red-scaled snake spirit to help him find the treasure plant.
Under the hazy moonlight, Zhou Shan rowed his breasts and slowly disappeared into the moonlight.
…
…
the other side.
Yuwang Village is more than a hundred miles away from Baisha County.
In the middle of the village, there is an extremely majestic courtyard with green bricks and green tiles, and high and deep walls.
This is the Fang family compound where the head family of Yuwang Village, the village chief Fang Yunhai, lives.
It is said to be a village, but in fact it is a powerful local power.
The four waters centered on Yuwang Village, including Tianluo Bay, Duanlong Beach, Wentang Gorge and Lingze Cave, are all under the control of Yuwang Village. Only people from Yuwang Village can fish in these four waters.
Other fishermen are not allowed to enter without permission.
However, as long as the Yuwang Village pays the fishing tax, the county government will turn a blind eye to such powerful people.
Daqian 668 years, Yongchang three years.
On the second day of September, the sun was obscured by dark clouds.
In the early morning, it was drizzling.
Village chief Fang Yunhai summoned the elders of each branch to discuss matters in the courtyard.
"There are only thirteen days left before the one-month period. How many tiger fish have been caught so far?"
Fang Yunhai, who had gray hair on his temples, sat on the chief seat and spoke slowly.
Although his tone of voice was not serious, it contained a sense of majesty, and there was a faint aura of terror around him, as if he was a sleeping tiger.
Fang Yunhai is not only the village chief of Yuwang Village, but also the number one expert in Yuwang Village.
Even in Baisha County, he is still ranked high.
"A total of nineteen tiger fish have been caught so far."
An elder with gray eyebrows and white beard replied.
"Nineteen, more than half of the time has passed, and only nineteen have been caught?" Fang Yunhai frowned slightly, and then said: "How many were caught by the fishing gang?"
"According to the news, the fishing gang caught twenty-two fish."
The elder with gray eyebrows and white beard replied.
"Twenty-two?" Fang Yunhai frowned and said, "What's going on? The place with the most tiger striped fish is Shi Caituo. Previously, the fishing gang went to Shi Caituo to fish. We secretly lured the monsters there and overturned their trap. All the fishermen on the boat were killed. Even from the river patrol team, only one warrior escaped. Since then, the fishing gang has not sent anyone to Shi Caituo. We only caught nineteen tiger striped fish. How could the fishing gang catch it? Twenty-two tiger fish, more than us?”
"I heard that there is a fishing king named Zhou Shan in the fishing gang. He alone caught ten tiger fish in Jinsha Bay. The rest of the fish stalls and fish shops, plus the tiger fish purchased from other lucky fishermen, all added up to twelve tiger fish."
Another elder said in a deep voice.
"Humph, a fisherman from the fishing gang dares to call himself the fishing king."
"Although I don't want to admit it, but one person caught ten tiger fish, which is indeed the fishing king. And it was in Jinsha Bay, not in Shifutuo, which is even more difficult. Luck alone is not enough."
"If this goes on, the fishing gang may catch thirty tiger fish before us."
"We must not give up this way of providing fish for the Juling Sect. This is a profit of three thousand taels of silver per month."
"..."
The elders below whispered to each other and spoke one after another.
"Village chief, should we send someone to kill Zhou Shan?" An elder suddenly suggested: "Except for Zhou Shan, the people of the fishing gang rely purely on luck to catch tiger fish. In this way, it will be difficult to catch 30 tiger fish before the deadline. Even if we fail to complete it by then, relying on the past friendship, the Juling Sect will not give the fishing gang the qualification to provide the catch."
"Friendship?" Fang Yunhai sneered and said: "If the Juling Sect still remembers the past friendship, how could there be such a thing now? For these forces, interests are everything. Only with interests can there be friendship.
But you are right, this Zhou Shan must be solved, but it cannot be done too obviously. It is best to let him be killed by monsters when he goes out fishing, rather than die in the city.
Otherwise, the people of the fishing gang will definitely guess that it was us who did it. Even if they can't find evidence, they will try to find trouble with us, so this matter cannot leave a handle.
Sixth Elder, this matter is left to you."
"Yes, Village Chief!"
The Sixth Elder nodded.
