Water elemental became a god, ultimately becoming the master of heaven, earth, mountains, and rivers

Chapter 31 The Sick Tiger

"The people from the rice mill?!"

A cold glint flashed in Coach Lin's eyes. He nodded to Huo Yue, signaling him to cover him.

Instructor Lin took a deep breath, then suddenly spread his arms, the violent force causing his sleeves to flutter loudly.

He strode and leaped, leaving only a shallow, continuous trail of footprints in the sand, and arrived at the pile of rocks.

Lift your head and open your hips, bend your arms and gather your strength, and you'll master the Great Achievement Fist!

Rumble!
The boulder the two men were embracing suddenly exploded, sending debris flying and dust billowing everywhere.

Instructor Lin moved with his fist, his entire body seemingly 'plunging' into the boulder, crashing down on the person behind it with a whooshing sound.

Simultaneously,

The arrows whistled, twisting and turning the air currents as they hurtled towards them.

The figure hidden behind the rocks, flustered, barely managed to get up and fight back.

Those further away also looked astonished and immediately tried to come to their aid.

"what?"

As soon as they exchanged blows, Coach Lin keenly sensed that something was wrong.

Why does this person's martial arts technique seem so familiar?

Instructor Lin abruptly withdrew his fist and said in a deep voice, "Tang Jie?"

A surprised voice came from within the smoke and dust.

"Lin Shouzhou?"

After a while.

Both groups of people came out, staring at each other in bewilderment.

Tang Jie and his group were from another jurisdiction, specifically Shui San'er on Jinyuan Street.

It simply belongs to another owner.

Tang Jie himself is the elder brother of "Old Ghost Tang," who died in the well a few days ago.

This is like a flood washing away the Dragon King Temple!
Instructor Lin's face was as black as charcoal as he cursed, "What are you idiots doing here?!"

Tang Jie's forearm was bent at an abnormal angle, clearly dented from the force of Lin Jiaotou's punch!
Tang Jie was both angry and aggrieved, and said,

"Then why did you come?! You're allowed to burn down the granary in revenge, but we're not allowed to come? My brother died unjustly too!"

Coach Lin didn't say anything more.

Well, Tang Jie and his group are quite skilled, and they were carefully selected; there are nine of them in total.

Since we're already here, let's go together.

Seeing that Coach Lin had given his tacit approval, Sun Xiao immediately took the lead, tore a hole in his right sleeve, and then tied the cloth strips together.

"Then let's use this as a marker to distinguish friend from foe, so as to avoid accidental injury!"

Seeing this, the others followed suit, tearing off their sleeves and wrapping cloth around their hands before heading towards the rice granary!

Click!

The moonlight was devoured by dark clouds, and suddenly a clap of thunder rang out.

Then a torrential downpour began.

Not far away, lights flickered sporadically, and the sounds of people and dogs mingled in the wind and rain.

Instructor Lin and the others, their faces tense, straightened their weapons and plunged into the darkness.

……

The barren mountain granary is surrounded by walls on all sides, and inside stand seven or eight warehouses of various sizes, as well as a few low-lying tile-roofed houses for the guards to rest and live in.

Because it was controlled by the rice mill, few people came to Micang Mountain on weekdays, and all the warehouses were locked with iron gates, leaving only small skylights for ventilation, which even rats couldn't squeeze in.

At this time, a torrential rain began to fall, and everyone except those who were patrolling and keeping watch outside took shelter in the tiled houses.

In the dark, entertainment options are limited.

If it were a matter of routine, on rainy nights like this, the people in the mill would either play dominoes or call in a few prostitutes for entertainment.

But today, everyone looked solemn and very serious.

He was either pacing back and forth under the eaves, keeping an eye on his surroundings, or practicing martial arts stances, working very hard.

Everyone's eyes kept glancing furtively at the figure sitting cross-legged on the bed inside the room, resting with his eyes closed.

He glanced at it briefly, then immediately looked away, as if he were a thief.

It evokes the feeling of a mischievous schoolchild being watched by a strict teacher.

The man inside appeared to be in his forties, dressed in black silk lantern pants and a white satin shirt. He had a broad forehead, a flat top, and full, fleshy skin.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, yet resembled a crouching tiger, exuding power without anger.

"Has someone been sent to check the warehouse?"

A calm sound came from inside the room.

A burly man hurried over, a ferocious smile creeping across his face.

"Uncle Yang, we've patrolled four or five times already, and not a single grain of rice is missing!"

As he spoke, the burly man handed over a bunch of keys.

Master Yang slowly opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and clear, his pupils so pure that if someone stared into his eyes for too long, they might even have the illusion that their mind had been drawn into those eyes.

Grandpa Yang took the key and hung it on his waist.

The burly man lowered his head, not daring to look into Master Yang's eyes.

"Tell the brothers to be careful. Something important is going on in the mill recently, so we can't be careless."

"Yes, Master Yang! I'll give the order right away."

Grandpa Yang nodded, about to say something more, when suddenly his ears twitched, and he abruptly stood up and stood by the window, looking out into the darkness.

"somebody is coming?"

Master Yang frowned.

"Open the door!!"

"Damn it, you bunch of slowpokes, why are you so slow!"

"Brother Zhuang? Quickly, let Brother Zhuang in."

"Brother Zhuang, it's so late and raining heavily, what brings you here?"

The door sill turned, and the gate opened.

Zhuang Kun, cursing, ran to the eaves to take shelter from the rain, while the others quickly moved sacks and put them into the granary.

"Has the goods arrived?"

Yang Ye's loud voice rang out, and in just a few breaths, he appeared in front of Zhuang Kun.

"Master Yang, the goods have arrived. This time there are thirty boxes, all top-quality stuff! I'm carrying them with me!"

Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Zhuang Kun bowed and scraped repeatedly.

Zhuang Kun had neither a package nor any concealed items, and he had no idea where the thirty boxes of goods were hidden. The two of them headed towards the largest granary.

Only after the best goods were stored away and the iron gate of the granary was locked again did Master Yang's solemn expression relax slightly.

"Master Yang, since there's nothing else to do, I'd like to go to Yanziwu to fight crickets and relax. I'll be back in a bit, what do you think?"

Walking back to the tiled house, Zhuang Kun rubbed his hands together, his face showing a fawning expression.

Yanziwu is not far from Micang Mountain. It is famous for its purple-skinned gourds, whose skin and shape are perfect for raising crickets and serving as insect containers.

After a while, Yanziwu became a well-known insect fighting arena in the capital.

"Heh... Go ahead."

Yang Ye glanced at Zhuang Kun sideways.

If anyone else dared to say such a thing, he would have broken three of their legs long ago.

But Zhuang Kun is not an option.

His brother-in-law is Manager Xiang.

"Go early and come back early. The granary still needs someone to guard it. Be careful not to be targeted."

Zhuang Kun chuckled: "Who would dare to mess with our millstone... Oh, except those scoundrels!"

After saying that, Zhuang Kun pulled out a gourd that was red and shiny, with the faint chirping of crickets coming from inside the house, and hurriedly headed down the mountain path behind the granary.

After Zhuang Kun left.

Wearing a straw hat, Master Yang inspected the rice granary again, inside and out. Seeing nothing amiss, he prepared to return to his room to rest.

thump!
Just then, three furtive figures scaled the wall and landed in front of Master Yang.

Looking at the thin, straw-hatted old man in front of him, Sun Xiao was somewhat surprised.

We were exposed so quickly?
Master Yang was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage.
"Who do you think you are, you scoundrel, you're asking for death!"

Suddenly, Master Yang launched an attack, striding forward with a cold and fierce expression. His eyes narrowed to the size of needles, and he resembled a tiger descending a mountain. The sheer aura emanating from him was enough to make one breathless.

A terrifying aura descended, and Sun Xiao and the other two groaned, feeling their blood and qi churning and becoming disordered in their chests and abdomens, losing five or six tenths of their strength.

Sun Xiao and the other two's expressions changed drastically.

A top-notch warrior? !

Is it... Yang Lu, the Sickly Tiger?!
"Instructor Lin!!" Sun Xiao immediately shouted and shook his men.

The voice just fell,

With just one move, even with Sun Xiao and the other two joining forces, they were defeated by Yang Lu, coughing up blood and forced to retreat.

"not good!"

Upon hearing the sound, Instructor Lin, who was outside the wall, suddenly changed his expression.

Lin Jiaotou and the others originally planned to have Sun Xiao and the other two climb up the wall separately, take advantage of the rain to remove the lookouts, and then poison the house.

Once the medicine took effect, everyone charged in.

However, seeing that things had fallen apart, no one panicked.

There are more than twenty second-rate experts here. With this force, where in Wuqing County can't they go, except for the county government, military camps, and armories?!

bass!
bass!
bass!
Suddenly, figures leaped up from the walls surrounding the rice granary.

With his arms outstretched, Lin Jiaotou looked down at Yang Lu like a monkey pouncing on its prey, tearing through the rain curtain as he charged towards her!
Those working in the rice mills along the way only had time to let out a scream before they were lifeless.

Power originates from the legs, the waist is the master, and the form manifests in the fingers!
With a fierce and murderous aura, Coach Lin brought down both fists!
However, upon reaching her, he saw Yang Lu.

Instructor Lin's expression first changed drastically, then turned gloomy, and finally turned bitter.

That coward Sun Xiao only called my name, why didn't he call out that the sick worm Yang Lu was here!

"Da Cheng Yuan Lin Shouzhuo, is Shui San'er from Jingwozi?!"

Looking at those densely packed figures tearing through the rain curtain.

Yang Lu's expression also changed.

People from Shuiwozi?
But why are there so many?!

They were cowardly, yet they dared to launch a night raid on the rice granary.

They were incredibly bold, sending over twenty second-rate fighters to what was just a rice warehouse!

What, do you think second-rate martial artists are free?
Yang Lu couldn't understand it.

Instructor Lin and the others couldn't understand it either.

This rice granary actually has a top-tier martial artist in charge?!

At this moment, Coach Lin couldn't care less about anything else.

His mind was free of thoughts and desires; his heart was devoted to his fist, and his fist was loyal to his intention. He used his intention to command his body, entering a state of supreme holiness and spirituality.

Today, either they will be beaten to death by Yang Lu.

Either they kill Yang Lu.

"kill!"

Lin Shouzhou roared and threw a punch!
……

"So lively tonight?!"

The rain pattered down, and outside the tall walls, a figure was hidden on a high vantage point, taking in the entire scene inside the rice granary.

Chen Shunan arrived later but faster than Lin Jiaotou and the others; in fact, he arrived half an incense stick earlier.

As Chen Shunan expected,
This top-tier rice granary was indeed heavily guarded, with a top-notch expert stationed there.

Fortunately, by a twist of fate, Tang Jie and his group came to their aid.

Chen Shunan's gaze was cold and sharp.

Inside the rice granary, Instructor Lin appeared mad, his body covered in blood.

Huo Yue also launched a sneak attack, while Sun Xiao and others provided cover.

It seems that Coach Lin and his team can hold out for a while longer.

Therefore, Chen Shunan's gaze fell on the largest warehouse.

Who knows what's hidden in the warehouse?

Even in this situation, there are still some hidden sentries outside the warehouse, hidden and motionless, like venomous snakes curled up in their caves, vicious and cold, guarding it tightly.

At this moment, however, these people exuded a special charm in Chen Shunan's eyes.

[Wish: 175]

[Invest 2 points of divine power, and Qingji's Human-Walking Armored Horse can be upgraded to Cloud-Walking Armored Horse, swift as clouds, with tiger tendons and leopard veins]

Treat the good with kindness, and the evil with evil.

Fearful desires are so sweet.

Whoosh!
Chen Shunan lightly touched the ground with his toes, his figure as ethereal as smoke or mist, more like some kind of dissipating spore dust, disappearing into the rain in an instant.

A moment later, several shrill screams that abruptly stopped were heard.
