I can't be a demon.

Chapter 36: Prepare to Eat and Drink

Shen Lian hurried to the Tide Martial Arts School.

There was no need to ask too much, as people along the way were already discussing that the Jinwu Guards had asked each gang to send a group of warriors to the yamen.

It is obvious that the Jinwu Guards intend to suppress resentment through the warriors' qi and blood.

The Black Tiger Society has a limited number of warriors, and they don't want to suffer any setbacks, so they have to give the spots to other martial arts schools.

Fortunately, there are not many vacancies and there is no internal unrest in Yanliang Town for the time being.

"Black Tiger, right?"

Shen Lian looked at the Tide Martial Arts School from afar and noticed that there were already more than a dozen members of the Black Tiger Society gathered in the courtyard, but the atmosphere was not tense.

He quickened his pace, tidal force surging between his fists and palms.

…………

In the lobby of the martial arts hall.

"Ugh."

Bai Haibo frowned tightly, and in front of him was Zhang Sha, the leader of the Black Tiger Hall.

"Master Zhang, I wonder if you can be flexible."

Zhang Sha remained unmoved.

Bai Haibo said helplessly: "I am the only martial artist in Chaoxi Martial Arts School. Since I took the initiative to choose to move into the martial arts school, please don't make things difficult for others."

"Master Bai."

Zhang Sha drummed on the table with his knuckles. At the age of sixty, his energy and blood had already declined, but he made up for it with his strong strength, which was especially concentrated on the dense hair on his face, making him look like a lion or a tiger.

"What the government means is that not only warriors, but even martial arts apprentices are not immune to this."

Zhang Sha glanced outside the room and said in a deep voice, "Since three of the registered disciples in the martial arts hall have touched the skin refining, according to the rules of the government office, Master Bai, you have to choose two to go with you."

Bai Haibo let out a long sigh.

It's life-threatening. Among the registered disciples, there are indeed a few with good qualifications. They began to grow at the age of twelve or thirteen. After their qi and blood increased greatly, it was natural for them to reach the stage of skin training.

"Master Zhang, you see, they all come from poor backgrounds."

Bai Haibo took out a bag of silver and money. He knew that the other party was famous for his love of money.

After weighing the bag, Zhang Sha slowed down his tone and said, "Okay."

"For the sake of our long-standing friendship, I remind you to get them to leave Yanliang Town as soon as possible. The soul-calling case... things are unpredictable."

Bai Haibo's pupils shrank slightly, and he asked cautiously: "Is it possible that the resentment is out of control?"

"not sure."

Zhang Sha hesitated and added, "You should know that the sixth day of the Lunar New Year is far from the end of the soul-calling case, so it's hard to say."

The reason why Bai Haibo got involved in the soul-calling case was because it involved his deceased wife.

No matter what, he wanted to confirm the true appearance of the monster behind the family letter and watch the monster's soul fly to pieces with his own eyes.

As for Bai Jinbao.

Bai Haibo has asked someone to take care of him. If he dies accidentally, Bai Jinbao will be sent to the East China Sea. Presumably, the environment will be suitable for him to live a few more years.

"Master Bai, you should have a disciple, right?"

Zhang Sha interrupted Bai Haibo's thoughts, and the latter quickly explained: "Master Zhang, the pawn shop had some business a few days ago, and Shen Lian went out to do business."

"Then who is he?"

Zhang Sha pointed out the window, only to see that Shen Lian had already arrived at the gate of the martial arts hall. His aura made the members of the Black Tiger Society dare not approach.

He praised: "What a dragon-like walk and tiger-like gait. Your foundation is very solid. It will take at most two to three years to become a warrior."

Bai Haibo was also a little surprised. Shen Lian's aura became stronger and stronger. It was obviously not about refining the flesh. It was impossible that he had already stepped into refining the bones?

"Why don't we discuss it and let him join the Black Tiger Society."

Zhang Sha chuckled and pretended to use all his strength to sweep towards Bai Haibo, wanting to see how strong Shen Lian was.

"kindness?"

Shen Lian squatted down with his legs, and terrifying strength burst out from his body. Bang!
The ground was sunken with deep pits, and large pieces of blue bricks were swaying like water waves.

Shen Lian leaped up with the reaction force, and his whole body seemed to be shot out from a gunpowder gun, and in an instant he had broken through the window of the martial arts hall.

"When will Black Tiger be so unreasonable?"

"Well done."

Zhang Sha laughed loudly, and his muscles made a dull thumping sound.

Bai Haibo's eyelids twitched wildly. He knew that he had not meant to ask Shen Lian to fight. Just as he was about to stop him, Zhang Sha swung his fist at him.

"Youngster, don't think that just because you've practiced martial arts for a few years, you can..."

Shen Lian's accumulated strength burst out, his muscles bulged slightly, and his two fists collided, creating an invisible wave of energy.

A whole muffled sound.

Shen Lian took a few steps back, while Zhang Sha took more than ten steps before stopping.

Zhang Sha only felt that Shen Lian's energy and blood seemed to be inhuman, which was not something a martial artist could have, and his strength did not gain any advantage at all.

What kind of martial arts are you practicing? Why does it feel like horizontal training?

Zhang Sha didn't know this.

Shen Lian actually held back a bit of his strength, and only used the tip of his Iron Body Skill. Otherwise, how could a declining warrior withstand a punch that even a half-demon couldn't withstand?

"Disciple, this has nothing to do with the Black Tiger Society. It is my own wish."

Bai Haibo stopped Shen Lian. It was obvious that Hall Master Zhang had restrained himself. If he used his true anger, Shen Lian would inevitably be seriously injured.

Zhang Sha coughed a few times and wanted to say goodbye, but found that he couldn't speak.

Shen Lian couldn't help but clasp his fists and said, "Master Zhang has great strength, which is far beyond the reach of a junior like Shen Lian. I will definitely visit you someday."

"It's okay, you two can just chat as master and disciple, ahem."

Zhang Sha covered his chest and waved his hands, then left Tide Martial Arts School with the rest of the gang.

"Master Bai, you..."

Bai Haibo shook his head slightly and mentioned vaguely a ghost in the yamen, which was closely related to the death of his deceased wife a few years ago.

There was no fear in his words, and he did not change despite Shen Lian's dissuasion.

Shen Lian had no choice but to give up and asked Bai Haibo indirectly about the matter of moving into the government office. Bai Haibo thought that Shen Lian was just being prepared and did not hide too much.

The two chatted for a long time.

Shen Lian never made clear his intention of going to the yamen.

The Jinwu Guards will inevitably disperse the warriors at the nodes where resentment gathers, using a method similar to setting up an array, so it will be of no avail even if two people travel together.

"Well, with me harvesting the resentment, the danger inside the government office will definitely be greatly reduced, and the warriors in the periphery should not suffer any casualties."

When Shen Lian walked out of the Tide Martial Arts Hall, it was already dark.

He first went back to the pawnshop and told Mr. Wang and others that he was going to avoid disaster. Then he packed his clothes and hid the myna among them.

The starling kept chirping and complaining for a long time until it heard that they were going to the government office. It suddenly lay there with its head tilted and its tongue sticking out, as if it had died suddenly, and remained motionless.

"Haha, I am now 100% sure that you are the one who took advantage of the benefits that the golden finger gave me. No wonder you are so fat and strong."

Shen Lian then took away the six custom-made coffins before the coffin shop closed.

Although his main purpose was to eat and drink to his heart's content, he still wanted to try to become a corpse Taoist priest.

If all goes well, the points gained will be enough to support you to the fifth level of innate realm.

Shen Lian was waiting for midnight in the dark. The bone blade on his neck quietly split open his mouth, and it seemed that he could no longer hold back his bloody mouth.

dong dong dong.

Just as midnight arrived, a sound was heard echoing from deep within the prison.

It was clearly a creepy noise, but Shen Lian couldn't help but drink a few sips of medicinal wine to suppress his appetite.
