Dual Transmigration: American Prison, Surviving to a Fantasy Development Stage
Chapter 23 The Calamity of Extermination
The second level of body refinement was not difficult for Lin Feng.
After washing up, Lin Feng stopped his cultivation for the day.
Others who practice martial arts often suffer from incompatibility due to lack of experience, making them extremely prone to injury.
Sometimes, you end up ruining your body by training too much.
If something goes wrong, the body needs to rest and recuperate, which is a huge waste of time.
This is also why many people need to take medicinal baths.
Lin Feng, on the other hand, didn't have to take these detours, saving him a lot of time.
The most important thing for body cultivation is to nourish the body with a large amount of qi and blood, and the younger the age, the better the absorption.
Fortunately, Lin Feng could directly obtain the source by devouring wild beasts.
In fact, both are dietary supplements; one is purified by the body, and the other is purified by black lotus.
With Zhao Erniu as the supplier, Lin Feng no longer needs to go to great lengths to hunt.
However, there wasn't enough silver; there were only 3 taels left.
Before crossing over to this world, Lin Feng had prepared 300 taels of silver.
He also received 15 taels from the hunter who reported Zhao Erniu, and 40 taels from Tian Guangwen and Tian Guangyuan, for a total of 355 taels.
In less than ten days, 352 taels of silver were spent, an astronomical sum for Zheng Hongwen.
Joining the Black Tiger Martial Arts School cost 10 taels of silver.
The white ox horn bow and arrows cost 21 taels.
The majority of these purchases were of wild animals bought from Zhao Erniu.
The total cost for the two tigers, one black bear, wild boar, python, leopard, and other wild animals was 352 taels.
Practicing martial arts really costs a lot of money.
But its strength has indeed improved quite quickly.
Although he only had 3 taels of silver left, Lin Feng was not in a hurry.
The space also contained supplies such as salt and wine, enough to exchange for a considerable amount of silver.
I just don't know if we should take Zhao Erniu.
As night fell, Lin Feng did not go out for a stroll after finishing his dinner.
The plan to visit brothels has been temporarily put on hold.
Yongguan County has been in a mess lately; it's best not to go if you're not financially capable.
Be patient.
The room was pitch black, but Lin Feng did not choose to sleep there. Instead, he hid in the space.
After setting the alarm, Lin Feng fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, Lin Feng was woken up by his alarm clock.
Once outside, I was relieved to see that no one had stepped on the flour sprinkled at the entrance.
If you don't have the ability, it's better to be cautious.
After washing up, Lin Feng went directly to the charity hall.
Upon arriving at the charity hall, everyone greeted each other.
Nowadays, Lin Feng is the most eccentric person in the charity hall. He pays money but doesn't practice martial arts; instead, he prefers to do odd jobs. It's really strange.
Even Sun Dayong, the person in charge of the charity, was too lazy to say anything more about Lin Feng.
Everyone has their own ambitions, and having too much money can be a waste.
Lin Feng thought nothing would happen today, but just after feeding the cow, someone asked him to collect the corpse.
Sun Dayong: "There's a corpse in the north of the city. Lin Feng, Zheng Hongwen, and Zhou Ming, all three of you go there."
Zhou Ming looked reluctant. "Senior Brother Lin is enough on his own. Why are we going?"
Sun Dayong: "Hey, five people died this time. You two should go help too."
"knew"
Having said all that, Zhou Ming couldn't say anything more.
Lin Feng led the oxcart, and the three of them headed towards the north of the city.
Upon arriving in the north of the city, Zheng Hongwen's family lived nearby.
I'm most familiar with this place.
Zheng Hongwen, who was leading the way, stopped, and Lin Feng and the other two saw the courtyard.
At a glance, the crowd outside the courtyard wall surged, filling the entire courtyard like an iron barrel.
The atmosphere, however, was as quiet as a stagnant pool.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the courtyard, yet there wasn't even the slightest sound of conversation; only a tense, suffocating silence remained.
His eyes flickered with fear, as if he were afraid that disaster would befall him.
The earthen wall, eroded by time and wind and rain, barely supports the layer of gray thatched roof.
The two crooked wooden doors were ajar, but a brand-new white silk ribbon hung on them, shockingly pale.
The three of them walked into the courtyard and immediately saw a coffin in the yard.
Under the sunlight, it gleamed with a sinister light.
A wooden memorial tablet was placed on the ground in front of the coffin.
Lin Feng glanced at it and saw that it read: "The memorial tablet of the late father, Huang Wangcai, is presented by his filial son, Zhang Dashan, who stands weeping."
There were no corpses, no bloodstains, and not even any extra mess in the courtyard.
Such an abnormality, the unknown terror, crept up Lin Feng's spine far more subtly than the obvious bloodshed.
Zheng Hongwen seemed to know what was going on and pointed inside the house.
Lin Feng and Zhou Ming pushed open the crooked wooden door and entered the house.
hiss--
The breath of cold air that Zhou Ming squeezed out between his teeth was instantly swallowed up by the coldness in the room.
Light streamed in from behind them, and the sight before them startled Lin Feng.
Four figures, each with a rough hemp rope around their neck, were suspended silently from the central beam of the house.
The deceased was an elderly woman with white hair, along with a middle-aged couple and a little girl.
The body was already stiff, its toes dangling unnaturally towards the ground, casting long, slanted shadows as sunlight streamed in.
On that simple earthen bed, lay a young corpse.
He lay stiffly on his back, his face a grayish-yellow tinged with dust and decay.
All five members of the family were present; no one, young or old, was missing.
Lin Feng: "What's this?"
Zheng Hongwen sighed, "The man hanging in the middle is Zhang Dashan, the one on the right is his wife and daughter, and the elderly woman with white hair is Zhang's mother."
The man lying on the bed is his eldest son, Zhang Ershun.
The incident happened the day before yesterday.
I heard that Zhang Ershun found a dead dog outside the city the day before yesterday.
So I picked it up and took it home, planning to treat my family to a meat feast.
Who knew that the dog actually belonged to Huang Shouye, the second son of the Huang family martial arts school.
He went hunting outside the city the day before yesterday and got lost.
Unexpectedly, he was killed, but Zhang Ershun took him back.
Upon hearing the news, Huang Shouye was furious and declared to the public, "A dog's life is worth a human life."
Zhang Dashan took out all the silver in his house in an attempt to save his son's life, but Huang Shouye wouldn't listen and immediately ordered his men to beat Zhang Ershun to death.
Not only that, they also stole the coffin that Zhang's mother had left for them and put the dog inside it.
Furthermore, Zhang Dashan was instructed to set up a memorial tablet for the dog, wear mourning clothes, and perform the rites as a "filial son," and to keep vigil for three days.
"When Zhang's mother saw that the coffin she had prepared was now filled with the corpse of a dog, she was deeply traumatized and died on the spot, filled with resentment."
Zhang Dashan's mother died, his son who carried on the family line also died, and he was even more humiliated by having to keep vigil for the Huang family's dog. He chose to hang himself.
His daughter-in-law and daughter, overwhelmed with grief and fear, also hanged themselves, shattering a once happy family.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ming gritted his teeth and clenched his fists: "Beast."
A surge of anger rose in Lin Feng's chest. This beast!
That's inhuman.
However, Lin Feng also knew that Huang Shouye dared to be so arrogant because the city lord indulged him behind the scenes.
Without the cover of black and white, it's nothing.
It is estimated that both sides are also a community of shared interests.
