Gou Zai Wu Dao Chao Shi Xing Nian Da Gong

Zhou Sheng stood on the street, seemingly observing the scene, but in reality, he was filled with worry.

My father's situation is settled, but what about my grandfather? How can I contact him?

When the boat was hijacked and killed at Fishbone Bay, he knew from the moment the fleeing man in black turned his head that it was his grandfather in disguise.

He guessed that his grandfather would come to the prefectural city to meet him, but he didn't know if his grandfather could find him. So after resting during the day, he acted like a country boy who had never seen the world, occasionally going out to watch the bustling streets.

In reality, he was waiting for his grandfather to arrive.

*Smack*

Suddenly, something landed in my palm.

Zhou Sheng was startled and instinctively gripped the handle. He then scanned the street but couldn't see the familiar figure at all.

So he strolled along the street without making a sound, and when he came to a secluded spot, he quickly reached out and saw that it was a small crumpled piece of paper.

"Room No. 11, Yunlai Restaurant".

Zhou Sheng unfolded the crumpled paper and, upon seeing the writing on it, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"It's Grandpa!"

...

Afterwards, Zhou Sheng entered Yunlai Restaurant, ordered several kinds of food and drinks at the counter, paid the money, and said he would come back to pick them up later. Then, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he went into the backyard and quickly found room number eleven.

He stepped forward and was about to knock on the door when it suddenly opened, revealing a wealthy-looking old man standing inside.

"grandfather??"

It took Zhou Sheng a while to realize that the person in front of him was his grandfather.

"Come in quickly."

Zhou Fugan said.

"Have you heard anything from your father?"

As soon as Zhou Sheng entered the room, Zhou Fugan, without even catching up, immediately asked what was going on.

"Young Master Wang personally agreed today; I'll have someone inquire about it tomorrow," Zhou Sheng replied.

"Then let's wait. I can't just show my face anywhere. If anything happens, come find me here," Zhou Fugan said.

"I know. Grandpa, what happened that day? How have you been these past two days?" Zhou Sheng nodded and asked with concern.

"It's a long story. Those masked robbers were very strange. They came in and made contact with the Wang family next door. They discovered me and wanted to kill me, forcing me to kill them and then disguise myself and escape," Zhou Fugan explained briefly.

"There's a traitor within the Wang family! No wonder!"

Zhou Sheng was surprised for a moment, then laughed. "Those bandits never expected this to be a trap. After you left, the chief镖头 (chief镖头, a kind of bodyguard/escort) suddenly appeared, severely injured the bandit leader, and killed another masked robber on the spot."

"Not only that, government troops arrived later and chased the remaining bandits straight into the bandits' lair. I heard they burned the Flying Dragon Stronghold to the ground. It's just a pity that the bandit leader escaped."

"..."

Zhou Fugan smiled slightly and remained silent. Who could have imagined that the bandit leader was already dead at his hands?

"Grandpa, can't you guess who that masked robber who was killed was?"

Zhou Sheng kept everyone in suspense.

"Who is it?"

"The Black Snake Gang's vice leader, Zuo Hu! And the masked robber you killed was probably another vice leader, Tian Wenchang. I heard from Senior Brother Liu that the escort agency and the Wang family have jointly reported this to the Zhang family in the inner city. The Black Snake Gang is in deep trouble this time," Zhou Sheng replied.

"I see!"

Zhou Fugan was not too surprised. He had already overheard Tian Wenchang's conversation with the traitor in the Wang family and knew that things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface.

"Alright, don't talk about this outside. Here are some silver notes, take them. Young Master Wang is helping to find someone, so the expenses can't be paid by anyone else." After giving some instructions, he took out a stack of silver notes and handed them to Zhou Sheng.

"Okay, Grandpa."

Zhou Sheng agreed, took the silver notes and saw that they were all twenty taels in face value, totaling two or three hundred taels.

He was taken aback, but didn't ask any further questions. He put away the silver notes and said, "Grandpa, I should go back now."

"Go."

Zhou Sheng opened the door, saw that no one was outside, and quickly went out to get the food before returning to Fuyun Inn.

.....

After Zhou Sheng left, Zhou Fugan felt a little relieved. His grandson was safe, and he was just waiting to find out where his son was. Everything was looking up.

Quack quack~~

A weak, strange cry came from the corner of the room, interrupting his thoughts.

Zhou Fugan got up and went to the cage. He lifted the black cloth and saw that the dragon's eyes were red and blood was flowing from its mouth. When it saw him, it struggled to get up, but it was trembling and could not get up.

"Ugh!"

Zhou Fugan sighed softly. Feilong's saliva was spitting blood; he was clearly about to die.

After spending these two days together, he was really reluctant to part ways.

Then, he reached out, grabbed the dragon's neck, twisted it, and snapped it with a crack.

A brief moment of clarity flashed in Feilong's eyes, and there seemed to be a sense of relief in his gaze.

Then, Zhou Fugan carried Feilong out of the room and into the lobby.

A waiter approached, all smiles, "Sir, what can I do for you?"

"Stew this dragon for me. Tell the chef to be careful; this is a precious bird, and its medicinal properties cannot be wasted."

Zhou Fugan mentioned Feilong and gave him some instructions.

"Don't worry, our restaurant's head chef is an expert in making medicinal cuisine, and he's skilled at preparing all kinds of auspicious fish, birds, and animals."

The waiter took the dragon, beaming from ear to ear. Preparing medicinal cuisine for customers, along with the side dishes, also comes at a hefty price.

"Send it directly to my room once it's cooked."

Zhou Fugan nodded and turned to go back to his room.

Even if this dragon dies, it shouldn't be wasted. He learned along the way that this creature was a precious bird, like precious medicines, precious fish, and precious beasts, highly nourishing when eaten. This one, in particular, had consumed a lot of Flying Poppy Beast-Feeding Pills, making its effects even more potent.

An hour later, the waiter brought over a steaming large basin containing the dragon, which had been chopped into large pieces by the chef and stewed with various precious medicinal herbs to make a medicinal dish with an enticing aroma.

"Mmm, not bad. Melts in your mouth! Delicious!"

Zhou Fugan tasted a piece of meat, and his eyes lit up immediately. He started eating it all up, quickly finishing the entire pot of grouse meat and even drinking the broth.

He felt a powerful heat emanating from his abdomen, baking his entire body like flames, making him break out in a sweat. It was like taking a sauna; all the fatigue from days of travel vanished.

"happy!"

Zhou Fugan smiled with satisfaction and then began to cultivate in the room.

After a period of cultivation, Zhou Fugan opened the virtual interface and took a look.

"Hammer Cloud Stance Method: Mastery (89/2000)"

Zhou Fugan nodded in satisfaction. This cultivation session had increased his progress by more than thirty points, equivalent to about ten days' worth of progress in normal cultivation. It was clear that the flying dragon was truly effective.

Then he sighed, "If only we could eat dragons every day!"

Since breaking through to the Bone and Tendon stage, his cultivation progress has slowed down, and the effectiveness of his daily cultivation has greatly decreased. Even with expensive tonics, he can only improve by about two or three points a day. Breaking through to the Internal Organs stage will take more than two years. This is far too slow!

Zhou Fugan studied the reasons behind it and actually discovered a clue.

The reason his cultivation progress slowed down was mainly because the Hammer Cloud Stance Technique had a very low effect on tempering the internal organs. It relied entirely on continuing to temper the physical body to indirectly strengthen the internal organs, which was like scratching an itch through a boot – a lot of effort for little result.

However, even knowing the reason, he didn't have any good solutions.

After all, he currently only knows the Hammer Cloud Stance and the Hu Family Stance, and these two stances are not much different in level. They both emphasize the body but neglect the internal organs, and their effect on strengthening the five internal organs is relatively poor.

"Perhaps this problem can be solved in the prefectural city."

Zhou Fugan was making plans in his mind.

This was also one of the purposes of his visit to the prefectural city.
