casket of old days

Chapter 43

A few days passed by, and Chu Qiguang insisted on applying medicine and practicing every day, and he was able to punch more than one hundred punches in a row, and he was getting closer and closer to the three hundred punches needed for the second level.

However, he has to be responsible for the food and drink expenses of himself, Chen Gang, and Qiao Zhi every day, plus a daily serving of more than 30 taels of Bailian Gao, his assets have shrunk to more than 200 taels.

'Practicing martial arts is really costly. '

In private, he also began to learn from Qiao Zhi the patting and massage skills of the Heavenly Demon Foundation Building Method, hoping to perform it by himself next time.His talent was already strong, and he learned it very quickly with the continuous addition of meditation in the second realm of cultivation during this period.

At the same time, he became more and more familiar with Jin Fugui, Lu Ming, Qiu Wen, and Wang Cailiang. In addition to the foundation-building method of the sky demon every night, he also ate wine and played together from time to time.

At the banquet, Jin Fugui also wanted to introduce his sisters to Chu Qiguang, but the latter refused.

Chu Qiguang's knowledge, ability, strength, and connections are growing bit by bit.

……

That night, a dog barked suddenly from the back alley, and Qiao Zhi's cat meowed in the dog bark, but the meowing was not intense, but rather teasing.

Chu Qiguang came to the back of the alley following the barking, and saw two big yellow dogs huddled together, forced to stand up at the corner of the wall, looking at Qiao Zhi standing on the edge of the wall with a face of fear.

Qiao Zhi licked his paws and said, "Just you two little things, how dare you come to provoke me?"

The older yellow dog bared his teeth, hugged his companion, and said fearfully: "Stinky cat! If you dare to cause trouble here, our king will not let you go."

The younger yellow dog also bared its teeth and growled.

But after seeing Chu Qiguang coming in, they all shut their mouths, apparently unwilling to be discovered as a monster.

But they soon widened their eyes and saw that the person and the cat in front of them communicated impressively.

Chu Qiguang said: "These two are dog demons?"

Qiao Zhi jumped off the wall and said, "It's just two stinky dog ​​monsters who want to sneak up on me."

Chu Qiguang touched Qiao Zhi's cat head: "Are these two guys good?"

Qiao Zhi said disdainfully: "It's just some spiritual wisdom, which cannot be seen in Taoism, but I haven't practiced martial arts at all, and it is probably impossible to practice Taoism."

Chu Qiguang and Qiao Zhi have been together for so long, and they also know the division of some monster clan's strength.

Monsters, like humans, can also practice martial arts and Taoism, but because of their different body structures, monsters have the martial arts of monsters.It can be said that people like Qiao Zhi who can both practice monster martial arts and instruct human martial arts are rare.

And some monsters are physically stronger than humans. For example, some tiger monsters and bear monsters can match the martial arts masters of the human race even if they don't have martial arts.

There are also monsters who are gifted with supernatural powers that humans do not have.

But wild monsters need a process of spiritual awakening before they can practice.

They awakened from ordinary animals, possessed some intelligence, and gradually understood human speech.Just like most of Qiao Zhi's demons are in this state.During the long-term exercise, their physical strength and spirituality will gradually increase, and finally they even learn to speak and practice.

These acquired monsters are called acquired species.

And the descendants who have the blood of Taoist monsters have a chance of being born with spiritual intelligence, and some even can take the shape of a human being when they are born. This is a good reincarnation, and they are also called the innate species.

Qiao Zhi looked at the two dog monsters and said, "But they are not wild monsters, they should be the innate species of the dog monster family."

Chu Qiguang knows that each of the seven monster races in the world has different characteristics. Among them, most of the dog and cat races live in the human world, and the chances of awakening their intelligence after birth are not low, but the extremely small and average individuals who can transform into human form The strength is the weakest, but the number is the largest and the distribution is the widest.

Chu Qiguang stared at the two dogs and said, "Are there many demon dogs in Qingyang County?"

Seeing that the two dogs didn't speak, Qiao Zhi bared his teeth and let out a few breaths, threatening: "I'm asking you something."

The two dogs looked at each other, but still didn't speak.With a rubbing sound, Qiao Zhi popped out his gleaming nails, then raised his paw and walked towards the two dogs, but was stopped by Chu Qiguang.

"Master Qiao, don't be impulsive!" Chu Qiguang pulled Qiao Zhi, and said to the two dogs: "You still don't answer? Do you want to be made into a dog meat hot pot?"

The old dog looked at Chu Qiguang suspiciously, and finally asked tentatively, "Are you a monster too?"

Seeing how familiar Chu Qiguang and Qiao Zhi looked, the old dog guessed that the other party was a monster who could transform into a human form. After all, the collusion between humans and monsters was not tolerated by the world, etiquette, and beliefs, and the possibility was too low.

The old dog thought to himself: "Being able to transform into a human form, or this guy has already entered the Tao."Either it is the innate species of intelligent intelligent human form from birth. '

No matter how the old dog saw that Chu Qiguang didn't look like an old demon who had entered the Tao, he guessed which demon clan's innate species he was.

Chu Qiguang didn't explain, and said inscrutablely: "You don't care what I am, now I am asking, and you answer."

Seeing the two dogs still looking wary and silent, Chu Qiguang asked helplessly: "Well, if you want to make dog meat hot pot, do you want to soak it in oil or sesame sauce?"

Chu Qiguang just talked with the two dogs for a while, and then took some meat and bones back from the yard and fed them to them.

After eating wildly, the two dogs finally opened their mouths and began to answer his questions.

The old dog said: "My name is Laotu, and this is my son Xiaotu. We usually look for food in this area."

Chu Qiguang asked again: "Do you usually eat enough?"

Xiaotu raised his head and said while swallowing the meat: "People can't get enough to eat these days, let alone dogs. We were born with five brothers, and I am the only one left."

Chu Qiguang nodded. Although cats and dogs have many advantages in the human society, but now the world is so bad, and there are Tianshijiao and Zhenmasi on top, these little monsters must have a hard time.

He asked: "Give you two meals a day, how about hanging out with me in the future?"

Xiao Tu's face paused slightly, revealing a look of yearning, but the old Tu at the side said quite politely: "We are with the king, we can't be with you."

"Your Majesty?" Chu Qiguang rubbed his chin, and asked about the ghosts and ghosts in Qingyang County.

After the two yellow dogs talked about it, Chu Qiguang learned a little more about the recent monsters and ghosts in the underground world of Qingyang County.

The most common people in this county are dog monsters and cat monsters. They formed groups and set up different territories.

The cat demons and dog demons who are good at it come into the rich family to show off their cuteness and tricks, and those who are not good at it catch mice and cockroaches on the street and steal some leftovers.

Then, the pier in the north of the city is said to have been haunted by demons recently, and some fishermen were attacked.The Taoist temple has already sent people to investigate.But the monster came and went alone, and did not accept any subordinates, and the two dogs didn't know the origin of the monster.

Finally, there is the recent corpse change case that happened in the county town, and the old-fashioned and small-town people don't know much about it.

Listening to the two dogs talking about how they robbed the leftovers thrown by the big family, how they pretended to be pitiful and sympathetic in front of those young ladies and masters to beg for food, Chu Qiguang sighed: "Being a monster is difficult."

As he spoke, his eyes were dim, and his face was full of 'concern' and 'worried'.
