Gao Wuming: From Dockworker to Physical Achievement

Chapter 130 This is his chance

At this moment, Li Cheng stood not far away watching.

Because the corpse's flesh was rotten, they tried to hook it down with a pole, but found that it wouldn't stay on.

After trying more than ten times, I finally found a decent piece of meat, hooked it off, and placed it on the ground.

"This corpse stinks horribly," the henchman said, shaking his head after the body was taken down.

Although it already smelled bad, you only realize how much worse the stench can be when you get closer.

"Just burn it and be done with it," another henchman said.

The group found some kerosene that had been prepared beforehand, poured it on the corpse, and then brought over some dry wood to cover it.

Once everything was ready, one of the henchmen lit a torch, walked over, and was about to throw the torch in.

A hand, stained with bodily fluids and rotting flesh, suddenly emerged from the pile of firewood and grabbed the henchman's leg.

The immense force slammed him to the ground, and the sudden turn of events caused him to scream in terror, "Ah!"

It desperately tried to shrink back and escape from here.

However, the corpse was incredibly strong, and he couldn't break free at all.

Then a head covered in rotting flesh appeared, opened its mouth and bit down hard on the henchman's leg. With a casual shake of its head, it tore off a large piece of flesh and swallowed it whole.

Just as they were about to eat again, Li Cheng, who had been keeping an eye on the corpse, arrived.

He held a fine steel spear in his hand, a weapon he had forged for himself.

Although many people use guns now, he prefers the feeling of using cold weapons.

A single shot pierced the back of the corpse's head, exiting through its mouth, and embedded itself firmly in the ground.

He grabbed the henchman on the ground and threw him behind him, shouting, "Light the fire!"

Several torches were immediately lit and thrown into the pile of firewood, and flames shot into the sky.

The bodies underneath were also set on fire.

"Awooo." The corpse let out a beastly roar, but its head was nailed down and it could not move.

As the flames burned more intensely, the corpse gradually became still.

"Go and fetch firewood, and burn it to ashes," Li Cheng ordered.

The original plan was simply to burn it to charcoal, but now something has changed; the corpse is dead but can still move.

To be on the safe side, it should be completely burned to ashes.

After the corpse stopped moving, Li Cheng turned around and walked to the henchman who had been bitten.

A large chunk of his thigh was missing, and it was hastily wrapped back with cloth by several people.

As for him, he was fully conscious at first, but soon fell into a coma.

"Stay away from him, don't go near him," Li Cheng said.

He hadn't forgotten that this thing was contagious.

You can't just throw your own brothers into the fire and burn them too.

Li Cheng thought for a moment, then asked someone next to him for a piece of clothing, tore it into strips, and tied it to the henchman's mouth to prevent him from suddenly going berserk and biting people.

Then, he grabbed the other person by the collar and walked quickly toward Warehouse Street.

He was going to consult Chen Yi.

Whether it's due to the infection from the demons or the injury on the other party's leg, only Chen Yi can solve it.

Warehouse Street.

Chen Yi looked at the henchmen Li Cheng had brought back.

He unwrapped the cloth from the other person's leg and took a look. Seeing a large chunk of flesh missing from the leg, he couldn't help but shake his head.

That's terrible, it must have hurt so much.

Beside him, Li Cheng was explaining what had just happened.

After listening to him, Chen Yi said, "The corpse came back to life? That thing turned into a zombie?"

After saying that, he looked up at the sky.

The sun was still very strong.

Can a zombie transformation really happen on a sunny day? Doesn't it usually happen in the dead of night, absorbing some moonlight or something?

"Take good care of him, but just to be safe, lock him up in jail. Tell him when he wakes up," Chen Yi said to the henchmen waiting on Warehouse Street.

In fact, he could directly increase the investment in blood and physical strength, allowing the henchman's blood and physical attributes to reach a higher level, thus quickly recovering from injuries.

But he's not a nanny; he's the one who has to deal with every injury his subordinates get.

In addition, a sample is indeed needed for the case of the supernatural infection.

So they kept it like that for now, observing the situation. Anyway, they had complete control of the situation, whether it was the injury or the infection by the demon.

"Remember, lock him in the steel cell specially prepared for dirty martial arts practitioners," Chen Yi reminded him.

The henchmen carried the injured henchman away.

"Master Yi, it's all my fault. If only I had acted sooner," Li Cheng said remorsefully.

Chen Yi said, "It has nothing to do with you. Who could have known that the corpse could still move? If anyone is to blame, it's that old man Yu Lin for not explaining it clearly."

As for the one who got bitten, he should have remembered this day would come when he started out making a living.

This is also his opportunity. If he can hold on, he will have made a contribution and can be promoted.

The gang now has two or three thousand members, and many are waiting to rise to the top.

Nowadays, the dock workers have stopped going to the docks after the government and foreigners both said they should.

It can be said that they have completely established themselves, and countless young people want to join them.

Even with the significantly raised entry requirements, the number of participants still doubled.

I wonder how many elderly people, upon seeing this scene, are glad they joined early, so they can enjoy both money and martial arts benefits.

If this were today, he wouldn't even be able to join the dock gang.

They are even more obedient to the rules of the gang, for fear of being kicked out of the gang if they accidentally violate them.

"We only need to keep an eye on the matter of demons and monsters for now. There's no need to expend too much energy on it. After all, Old Man Yulin said that this matter won't affect our Tianhai area."

Chen Yi changed the subject and said, "Now, most of the martial arts practitioners from various places have arrived. I think the selection competitions held by the three major martial arts schools are about to begin."

Li Cheng, you have confidence, don't you?

Li Cheng said, "Master Yi, after all, you are a martial arts master in the entire Great Xuan. I can't guarantee that I will definitely win, but I will definitely fight with my life on the line."

Chen Yi kicked him in the butt and cursed, "Why should I risk my life? Their so-called extreme training for martial arts selection is nothing in my eyes. I don't need your life."

What level are you at now?

Li Cheng was kicked two meters into the air. After landing, he grimaced and rubbed his buttocks, saying, "Master Yi, I'm still in the Skin Polishing stage. Although I've accelerated my use of strength to train my bones, it will still take some time."

The Bone Forging Realm is a universally acknowledged level of refinement in the martial arts world, requiring gradual progress.

If you're impatient and end up injuring yourself, it will only make breaking through even more difficult.

After all, it's harder for blood and qi to reach the bones, and recovery is slower.

However, Li Cheng has the added blood and qi attributes from the martial arts divine medicine, giving him a higher recovery ability and the speed boost that allows him to hold on.

"Let me see."

Chen Yi took a step forward and stood in front of Li Cheng.

The released qi and blood directly penetrated into Li Cheng's limbs and bones.

Active blood and qi can prey on living beings, but because Li Cheng consumed the blood and qi flesh, he will not be preyed upon.

In addition, Chen Yi was in control.

It became a perfect means of investigation; as the blood and qi penetrated, Chen Yi could clearly see Li Cheng's physical condition.

The opponent was indeed somewhere between the Skin Polishing and Bone Forging realms, and their bones had quite a few minor damages, clearly due to their pursuit of speed.

"Let me lend you a hand."

With a thought, Chen Yi controlled Li Cheng's own strength and channeled it into his bones.

Tiny structures are constantly being damaged, but with the replenishment of vital energy and blood, they are restored to their original state.
