The world is like a prison, my body is holy

Chapter 70 Snowball

"Brother, get up..."

Wang Wen opened his eyes and scanned the unfamiliar house sleepily. On the floor in the corner opposite the bed, he found Chen Sandao's head with a black mouth and black face.

He only took a quick look before closing his eyes again and asked vaguely, "How long have I been sleeping?"

Chen Sandao: "It's been a day and a night. You told me to wake you up after the fire in the city is out..."

Wang Wen: "Is the fire out?"

Chen Sandao: "It's almost there. Before dawn, the master had already quietly returned to the city with his men and took out all the silver from the government treasury. I saw that there were dozens of boxes. We are going to make a fortune this time!"

Wang Wen still had his eyes closed: "You and Ergou followed them the whole time? There were no outsiders present when they went to get the silver, right?"

Chen Sandao didn't answer him directly, but just said: "I'll do the job, don't worry!"

Wang Wen opened his eyes and looked at him: "Murder?"

Chen Sandao shrank his neck and looked around and said, "They are not good people..."

Wang Wen asked curiously, "Who are they?"

"I don't know. It's very mixed."

Chen Sandao shook his head vigorously. "There were thugs taking advantage of the situation, security guards from wealthy families, and some who looked like soldiers... Anyway, everyone was armed, and none of them looked like good people."

"Xiangjun?"

Wang Wen woke up completely from his doze: "Did you kill them all?"

"No no……"

Chen Sandao then shook his head: "Except for a few extremely vicious idiots and a few really blind idiots, I used the ghost wall to lead the rest away..."

"Yes, I know the seriousness of the matter..."

Wang Wen felt relieved, but his eyelids started to droop again. "No one from the Metropolitan Observatory, right?"

Chen Sandao thought for a moment and replied, "Anyway, I didn't find it..."

Wang Wen hummed softly, thinking to himself, "Zhao Zhiling is quite kind."

He closed his eyes and asked softly, "Have you gone home to see me? How is my godson?"

Chen Sandao said hurriedly, "I've seen it. The master is kind and righteous. He found a separate courtyard for them in the village and arranged for a few capable old women to live with them. It's very comfortable. That little bastard was so happy that he cooked half a roast chicken in one go that night. I wonder who he took after..."

"You still have the nerve to say it?"

Wang Wen sneered, "Go to Lichunyuan and ask the madam to go out and buy you a roast chicken. You are the only one who can do that..."

Chen Sandao laughed obscenely.

Wang Wen waved his hand and said, "Okay, I'll take another nap. If I'm not up before lunch, you can call me."

Chen Sandao let out an "Ah", turned around and crawled into the ground.

However, Wang Wen, with his eyes closed, did not really go back to sleep. Instead, he called out the City God's order, preparing to add some points.

The night before, after they defeated the boss and returned to the Qinghe Gang's temporary base outside the South Gate, he couldn't wait to add some points, but he was so exhausted at the time that he felt drowsy the moment he lay down on the bed after taking a shower...

The bronze court sceptre popped out, emitting a soft golden light.

Just see:

【City God of Jiangdu County】

[Achievements: 629]

[Yin De: 150]

Yin Spirit: Night Wandering

【City God Temple: (Damaged)】

[Hundred Schools: Taiyi Rescue and Protection Sutra (First Level) (+), Black Tiger Fist (Perfect), Liuhe Spear (Mastery) (+), Iron Shirt (Third Level) (+), Palm Thunder (Third Level) (+), Canglan Nine-fold Waves (Second Level) (+]

A whole row of sparkling “+” is undoubtedly the best affirmation of Wang Wen’s hard work in recent times!
The corners of his mouth were almost stretched to his ears...

He stared at the City God's Order with satisfaction, and his eyes lingered for a moment on the column of the damaged City God Temple, thinking to himself: "Or, why not take some time to go over and take a look?"

He was not planning to invest too much energy in the City God Temple in Jiangdu County, not only because Jiangdu had little development potential, but also because his connections and resources were currently concentrated in Yangzhou.

Abandoning Yangzhou, a mature and advantageous home base, and spending time and energy to develop Jiangdu County, which has little potential, is obviously putting the cart before the horse.

Therefore, his previous plan was to abandon the role of County City God and focus on accumulating merit to become a Prefecture City God...

Didn’t Zhao Zhiling say that the White Lotus Sect had set up altars in various places in Jiangnan?

He earned a total of 650 points of Yin De from one altar, and there are still six or seven altars left. Even if he just acts as a slacker, it should be enough for him to be promoted to the City God, right?
This was his previous plan.

But now, Mr. Wang has tasted the wonderful taste of "sharing the spoils 30% and 70%", and his mentality is naturally very different.

In his eyes, Jiangdu County was already rotten in the pot of Master Wang. Even if he could only treat it as a transition, he could still divide it among his subordinates to open branches in the future, and continue to earn merit and achievements for him. It was like buying out the market in one go. How could he not do this deal?
"Well, there's no need to go there in person..."

He quickly made up his mind: "Let Er Gou and Sanda lead the Si Tianwei team. They are the ones who can handle both the white and black forces."

"Well, this is a good idea. It would be best if we could leave one person and one ghost behind in Jiangdu County to keep an eye on the white and black forces in Jiangdu County. If there's any disturbance, report it to me immediately. I'll then send someone down through the Dusi Tianjian to deal with it..."

'In this way, I can be the City God of Jiangdu County in Yangzhou Prefecture, without any delays!'

"The plan works, let's do it!"

After solving the problem of the City God Temple, he once again turned his gaze to the row of glittering “+” signs over there.

There is nothing much to think about. Except for the "Taiyi Jiuku Husbandry Sutra", the other martial arts can be improved.

Wang Wen just glanced at the martial arts he knew, and then without hesitation, he pressed the "+" sign behind "Canglan Jiudielang" with his mind.

After a while...

He broke away from those experiential training scenes, feeling the strength in his lower dantian increased several times, stood up, put on his cloth shoes with thousand-layer soles, opened his boxing stance and performed a set of "soft and weak" Black Tiger Fist.

"call……"

After finishing a set of boxing, he slowly closed the boxing, turned around and glanced at the clear shoe prints on the ground, thinking to himself: "This is the transformation of energy!"

If Ming Jin is a strong and fierce force, when it is practiced to a high level, one can punch out with such force that it can break the bones and tendons of an armored soldier and send him flying a few feet away.

The hidden power is the feminine power. When practiced to a high level, when a punch is thrown, the power can pass through a layer of armor and leave a blood hole as big as a bowl on the soldier's body, or even directly penetrate the soldier's body!

As for Hua Jin, it is a combination of hardness and softness, yin and yang. Not only can this kind of strength be transformed into Ming Jin and An Jin at will, it can also be condensed into one and exist outside the body. When practiced to a high level, it can even silently retain the strength in the internal organs of others, and only shatter their internal organs a day or two later, killing them without being seen… These three kinds of strength are also the three major stages of foundation-building and muscle-cleansing in martial arts, and belong to the kind of hard work that can be made up by diligence.

Going further up, it depends on one's aptitude, understanding, and luck...

Don’t be fooled by the fact that Hua Jin and Dan Jin seem to be only one word apart.

But as for the former, three or two can be found in any capital city of the Great Zhou.

The latter, however, can be called a "master" in the entire Great Zhou martial arts world.

You know, famous masters like Lin Baichuan and Jiang Jin are actually only one level higher than Dan Jin masters... Although that one level is also a natural barrier that has blocked countless martial arts masters.

After Wang Wen sensed the magic of the transformation force for a moment, he quickly returned to the bed and summoned the City God Order again. The number 613 floating behind the merit column gave him great confidence.

"Keep going!"

He rubbed his hands excitedly and clicked the "+" sign of "Canglan Jiudielang" again with his mind.

The moment the glittering “+” sank, he clearly saw the red words “-48” floating by.

"Shouldn't it be 32 points? How did it become 48 points? Damn, the price has increased?"

A doubtful thought flashed through his mind, but he was immediately overwhelmed by the massive images of practicing martial arts.

This time, he sat cross-legged in meditation for a longer time.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a stream of white air more than three feet long. The temperature in the room dropped by two degrees.

He stood up and stretched his arms and legs, feeling the surging Qi in his lower Dantian. He thought to himself with satisfaction, "The price may have gone up, but in the end, you get what you pay for!"

He already understood why the price of the City God Order had increased. It was because the upgrade from the third level to the fourth level of this skill was a big hurdle, and the subsequent practice would be many times more difficult than the first to third levels.

At this rate, I'm afraid there will be another chasm waiting for him when he reaches the sixth or seventh level of this martial art...

"No wonder the rumor spread in the martial arts world that Master Uncle achieved the realm of the afterlife through this skill."

He muttered something in his mind and secretly calculated the account. Suddenly, the flesh on his cheeks twitched with pain.

It's true that you only regret not having enough money when you need it!

With more than 600 merit points, he thought he was about to usher in another epic improvement.

Unexpectedly, he swallowed most of it in just half a day.

"Forget it, forget it. Cheap goods are not good. You get what you pay for..."

He comforted himself and sat back on the bed: "Let's just get to the sixth level first. The sixth level should be enough for now. The rest will be left for the Iron Shirt and Palm Thunder."

……

At noon, Wang Wen pushed the door open and walked out.

At that moment, Xu Ergou was sitting on the steps opposite the door, bragging to Chen Sandao underground. When he heard the door open, he subconsciously looked up and saw a familiar yet unfamiliar pretty boy. He tentatively called out uncertainly, "Big Brother?"

Wang Wen glanced at him and said, "Are you blind? You can't even recognize me?"

Xu Ergou jumped up in shock. "Holy crap! Is it really you? If you hadn't said anything, I would have thought it was some bunny god from some family."

Wang Wen angrily cursed, "My magical skills have greatly improved, and my horizontal training has been successful. It's only natural that I've become more handsome and more handsome. What do you, an uneducated and unskilled fool, know about this?"

Xu Ergou was scolded, and the strange feeling in his heart dissipated instead. He leaned forward and looked at him carefully, "Brother, tell me the truth, are you really practicing some weird Kung Fu that only girls can practice?"

Wang Wen sneered, "Don't believe it?"

Xu Ergou argued confidently, "Those fierce men who practice horizontal training are all big and calloused. Who is not like you? You've practiced horizontal training so hard that all the hair is almost gone..."

Wang Wen didn't waste any time talking to him. He casually pulled out the sword from his waist, raised his left arm and slashed at the back of his left hand.

Before Xu Ergou could even utter a “Fuck”, he heard a “clang” and the steel knife broke into two pieces. Wang Wen’s hand was not even scratched, not even a white mark was left.

"I, I, I... I'm fucking stupid!"

Xu Ergou was stunned.

Wang Wen casually threw away the half-broken steel knife in his hand and asked triumphantly, "Is it handsome?"

Xu Ergou's eyes lit up: "So handsome!"

Wang Wen narrowed his eyes and said patiently, "Want to learn? I'll teach you!"

Xu Ergou was about to agree, but then he immediately became alert and looked at him suspiciously: "Isn't it the same 'If you want to practice this skill, you must castrate yourself first' thing again?"

Wang Wen had a mouthful of soup stuck in his throat and couldn't spit it out.

Damn it, I shouldn't have said so much to these bastards in the first place...

He said speechlessly, "It's the real horizontal training technique, 'Iron Shirt'. Just practice it without worry! I guarantee you won't make a sound once you practice it!"

He spent more than two hundred merit points to perfect the Iron Shirt. Xu Ergou might not be able to master this martial art to his level even if he practices till death...

"Oh, by the way, can the Ghost Order be given to a living person?"

"How about finding a random evil spirit, giving him a ghost order, and then killing him to get it back?"

He strode forward thoughtfully, and Xu Ergou followed closely behind him: "That's great..."

Wang Wen: "Where's your uncle?"

Xu Ergou: "Uncle has already returned to the city to organize people to clean up the fire debris..."

Wang Wen: "Then why did you come back? Are you afraid that I won't know the way?"

Xu Ergou answered casually: "Oh, by the way, Master Ji is back and has been looking for you everywhere..."

Wang Wen stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Xu Ergou with a stern look: "Are you, the Dog Master, getting cocky, or am I, Wang Lao Hu, no longer able to lift my sword? How dare you yell at me about something this important?"

Xu Ergou's anus tightened under his unfriendly gaze, and he quickly shouted, "Brother, I'm angry for you. That old bastard didn't come back early or late, and when he came back after we finished our work, he asked you to go see him in person? Why can't he come to see you? His matter is urgent, but yours is not urgent?"

Wang Wen's gaze relaxed, and he said with a fierce face, "I'll let you off this time, but if you do it again, I'll show you how I'll deal with you... Also, be more respectful to Taoist Ji in the future. The old Taoist priest treated me well, and we can't pick up the bowl to eat and then put it down to curse our mothers."

Xu Ergou nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I'll be careful next time and never do it again... But brother, do you really want to go now? I feel like they're trying to destroy the bridge after crossing it."

"It shouldn't be..."

Wang Wen pondered and shook his head. "They're all smart people. There's no reason for them to pick on me at this critical moment. It won't benefit them in any way... They must really have something important to discuss with me."

It just so happened that he also had many questions and wanted to find the old Taoist priest to answer them.
