I can't be a demon.

Chapter 58 Demon? I am a martial arts master

More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The pawn shop's business has been good, but because Shen Hansheng has not yet recovered, the antique calligraphy and paintings in the warehouse cannot be sold quickly.

In order to prevent the shortage of money, Shen Hansheng simply relied on his previous connections to sell some items at low prices to wealthy businessmen in the city.

He has also become more open-minded and is content with just living on his own three-acre piece of land.

Besides.

Shen Hansheng looked towards the courtyard with lingering fear.

A dull knocking sound could be heard echoing. It was Shen Lian who was training in the backyard. His son's talent in martial arts was far beyond ordinary.

Shen Hansheng felt that Shen Lian might not be willing to inherit the pawnshop in the future.

You can't pass it to the starling, right?

"When Ah Lian has a child, he will be able to settle down and things will probably be much better."

While Shen Hansheng was thinking, he heard Old Wang remind him, "Boss, the Jinwu Guard Li Shun from the yamen has come to the pawnshop."

"understood."

Shen Hansheng nodded, quickly smiled and opened the door.

Before he could open his mouth, he smelled an indescribable smell of blood. He was stunned on the spot, his eyes fell on Li Shun's hand.

There were more than a dozen yamen runners in total, and Hong An was also among them.

"Don't panic, boss. We'll only be here for a moment."

Li Shun had a stern expression as he held a head wrapped in black cloth. Why was it called a head? Because all the facial features could be seen through the black cloth.

There was a little blood dripping from the neck of the head.

"Come in, please."

Li Shun was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Shen Hansheng's injuries were no longer serious. He heard that it was only by taking powerful medicine that his resentment was dispelled. It seemed that the pawnshop paid a lot of money.

"Shopkeeper Shen, do you mind if I wait for you to look around the shop?"

"I don't mind, of course I don't mind."

Shen Hansheng made a horrified discovery through the mouth and nose covered by the black cloth.

The brain is still alive...

Just as he was about to follow Li Shun, he was stopped by several yamen runners. He could only watch the Jinwu Guards enter the courtyard, and he couldn't help feeling worried.

Could it be that my son had offended the government? Or was it related to the fish monster?

Li Shun lifted the black cloth, revealing a head that looked like a tiger and a human, and then asked cautiously: "Master Zuo Qianhu, is there the aura of a thousand-year-old demon in the Shen family pawnshop?"

Zuo Yan answered, "No, but Yang Weichang has been here before."

Li Shun nodded. He felt very uncomfortable facing Zuo Yan's magical power of beheading people without dying. It was hard for him to imagine what level of cultivation Qian Hu had reached.

You know, Zuo Yan himself is still in Gao Laozhuang.

Just wanting to investigate the Nine-eared Demon, he sent his head away and travelled a hundred miles a day to reach Yanliang Town.

If there is no clue for a long time, Zuo Yan will withdraw his head. After all, the court’s current attention still needs to be focused on Gao Laozhuang.

"Li Shun, how is Zhu Yihong's injury?"

"Reporting to Lord Zuo, it has stabilized."

"Well, several Ten Households will come to Yanliang Town to deal with the fish disaster together. You don't have to worry too much. The main thing is that... Nine-eared demon."

"what?"

Zuo Yan raised his eyebrows and asked Li Shun to stop in front of the courtyard gate.

They looked through the corridor window.

Shen Lian was seen lying at the foot of the banyan tree, with two guards holding stone hammers and iron spikes, constantly hitting the gaps in his spine.

Even the Jinwu Guards couldn't help but feel surprised.

Shen Lian was obviously practicing horizontal training, and it could be seen that he had mastered this martial art to perfection without damaging his foundation.

"he is?"

"The young master of the pawn shop, Shen Lian, has already stepped into the ranks of warriors and his talent is indeed good."

Zuo Yan laughed strangely and muttered to himself, "He is a natural born strongman. There are not many similar baits in the Jinwu Guards." Li Shun was speechless.

The so-called meat bait refers to the yamen warriors who use their qi and blood to attract demons.

It is said that the imperial court sent nearly a thousand yamen runners to Gao Laozhuang before they brought a thousand-year-old demon into the third floor of the ghost market.

After Zuo Yan praised Shen Lian for a few words, he did not pay too much attention to him. With his status as a thousand households, he would not force a warrior to be bait.

Li Shun asked, "Master Zuo, do you want to go take a look in the courtyard?"

"No need, Yang Weichang didn't die in the pawn shop."

Zuo Yan shook his head and added: "There is more than one great demon lurking in Yanliang Town. Judging from the existing traces, there are at least three."

"Ah~"

The starling landed on the courtyard wall outside the window, very close to the two of them.

Zuo Yan stared at the starling for a few breaths, and continued to talk to himself: "The nine-eared demon has been practicing Taoism for more than two thousand years, and has great magical powers."

Li Shun couldn't help but tremble.

He was overwhelmed with inexplicable fear and turned his head away to look at the lush banyan tree in the courtyard. Only then did the uneasiness in his heart subside.

Zuo Yan sighed and said, "The plant demon has been in existence for about five or six hundred years. There is a high probability that Yang Weichang will die at its hands."

The two did not notice that the shadow in the corner was shaking slightly.

"The last demon traveled for a thousand years, but few traces were left behind."

Zuo Yan said in a deep voice: "If the great demon had not attacked mortals and had not leaked its aura to affect the environment, Yanliang Town would be worthy of being called a cave residence."

"Let's go, Li Shun. I'll take my head back after I've dealt with the fish disaster case."

The two men slowly left the pawn shop.

.........

Shen Lian opened his eyes.

In fact, with his perception as a warrior, he had already noticed it as soon as the two of them first entered the pawn shop, but he just pretended to know nothing.

Shen Lian almost couldn't help but take action, after all, the visitor's methods were too strange.

"The demonic inner strength of that Jinwu Guard is probably related to the Great Immortal Huli, the one who likes to chop off his own head?"

In Journey to the West, there are three demons in Chechi Kingdom, namely Tiger Power Immortal, Deer Power Immortal, and Sheep Power Immortal. They are the thirty-fourth, thirty-fifth, and thirty-sixth difficulties.

"continue."

Shen Lian signaled Dang Ding to swing the stone hammer, while another Dang Ding aimed the iron spike at the spine.

There is no other way. The Tiger Bone Iron Spine Technique also requires a heavy blow from external force. Otherwise, relying on the Yin and Yang power to temper the bones is too slow.

He called out the career panel.

[Martial arts: Yin-Yang Tai Chi Posture (Tide Flame), Indestructible Copper Body (Copper Body), Tide-Strike Fist (Perfect), Tiger Bone Iron Spine (Great Success), Blue Blood Clear Heart Posture (Great Success), Hunyuan Oneness Posture (Great Success), Big Monument Palm (Minor Success]]

Compared with the two stances, the Tiger Bone Iron Spine Technique is very close to perfection.

After being tempered, the bones of the spine became more and more like jade, and the occasional cracks were healed in a short time.

"Increase the force."

The two Dangdings were sweating profusely, even if it was mining in the Salt Mountain, it was no different. However, they did not complain at all.

The main reason was that the young master had agreed to teach them the Yang Yuan Pillar, which made them ecstatic.

After Shen Lian had been torturing himself for six days, the bottleneck of the Tiger Bone Iron Spine Technique finally loosened, and he immediately felt a tingling sensation in his spine.

He crawled on the ground, and the movements of his limbs and limbs were like a tiger.

Spring rain fell in Yanliang Town again.

Shen Lian arched his back and stretched his spine. His bones collided with each other, making loud sounds, and his Tiger Bone Iron Spine Technique was completed.

[Do you want to consume 3 points to combine the Immortal Bronze Body and Tiger Bone Iron Spine Skill?]

The moment he confirmed the synthesis.

The spine came alive.
