"My Lord, please take a rest. County Magistrate Zhang and his men cannot travel at night. They will definitely not be able to bring the young lady back until tomorrow!"
Chen Dao came to the side of County Master Chen Fan and comforted him softly.
"Um!"
Chen Fan snorted softly. Thinking of Chen Feng, how could he possibly sleep?
Wolong Mountain.
Zhang Long paced back and forth, worriedly:
"No news about Zhou Chen yet?"
"Boss, Brother Chen may have come down the mountain on his way. Besides, it's late at night, and Brother Chen won't have time to come back. He will definitely find a place to stay nearby."
Zhao Hu comforted.
"I hope so!"
Zhang Long was a little worried because he was ambushed while chasing Tiexiong and almost died.
Especially Tiexiong was not at the second level of body refining as he thought, but at the third level.
Fortunately, he is skilled in swordsmanship and Tiexiong does not want to risk his life with him, otherwise he might not be able to come back.
And Tiexiong naturally escaped.
He was worried that Zhou Chen would encounter the same situation. Since Tie Xiong was hiding something, would the second-in-command Lu Xiao, who had always kept a low profile, also have a strong hidden strength? However, Tie Xiong's real cultivation level was the third level of physical training, and Lu Xiao, as the second-in-command, even if he had hidden something, it was estimated that he was at most the second level of physical training.
There is still hope for Zhou Chen.
What's more, jungle tracking is still a great advantage for Zhou Chen, a sharpshooter who has been hunting in the mountains for many years.
"How is Miss Chen?"
Zhang Long asked again.
"Still not eating, drinking, or talking."
Zhao Hu replied.
There were many young girls abducted by bandits in the mountain stronghold. They asked these girls to wash and take care of Chen Feng.
It's just that the latter is not in good condition.
There was nothing he could do.
We can only escort him back to the county government office early tomorrow morning.
"What a blast! I thought we could capture him easily, but we were discovered by two spies. We alerted the enemy and it's really embarrassing!"
The two third-level body-refining warriors from the Salt Gang and the Fishing Gang were still depressed when they thought about what happened today. They had messed up the task today.
"I clearly saw that the two spies didn't see us. I don't know how they found us!"
"Fortunately, Miss Chen didn't get into trouble because we were discovered. Otherwise, we would have been punished, not to mention the reward."
The night passed quietly.
Early the next morning.
Zhang Long, Zhao Hu and others, as well as two third-level body-refining masters from the Salt Gang and the Fishing Gang, took Chen Feng and rode back to Qinghe City at full speed.
After a night's rest and with the comfort of the beauty, Zhou Chen finally recovered to full health.
He glanced at Qin Hongyu, who was sleeping soundly in his arms, and kissed her gently on the forehead.
After a while of tenderness, Zhou Chen did not covet the warm little nest. Relying on his strong self-discipline and perseverance, he got up.
“Hmm!”
Qin Hongyu frowned slightly and murmured instinctively.
Zhou Chen glanced at it and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Qin Hongyu was injured by him.
It seems that I have to find a suitable martial art for Qin Hongyu to practice as soon as possible.
After covering Qin Hongyu with the quilt and pressing down the foot of the quilt, Zhou Chen took out a human skin mask and put it on.
This human skin mask was found in the storage bag of Qi You, the first immortal cultivator he killed. It was made of a special material and was as thin as a cicada's wing. When worn on the face, it looked as if it was nothing.
Zhou Chen changed into black clothes, took out a hat and put it on, stuffed all his hair into the hat, and his whole appearance changed.
His face was a sallow face of an ordinary middle-aged man. Even if he stood in front of Qin Hongyu now, the latter would definitely not recognize him.
"Very good! From now on, this identity will be called Han Feiyu!"
Looking at himself in the mirror, Zhou Chen was very satisfied.
He quietly left home and came to the Sihai Chamber of Commerce. After being warmly welcomed by the maid, he came to the archery area.
Last night he understood the meaning of the arrow and a killing move, and he needed a good bow to unleash its full power.
"Let me try this one!"
Zhou Chen looked at Jinghong, the person he longed for but failed to get last time.
"Sir, you have a good eye. This Jinghong bow is a good bow that has reached the upper level..."
The maid introduced it enthusiastically and took out the bow for Zhou Chen to try.
Boom! Zhou Chen pulled the bow casually, and the bow was like a full moon. A terrible power surged, and even without arrows, everyone felt as if they were on edge.
“So strong!”
The maid was stunned.
She guessed that Zhou Chen was strong and should be able to pull the bow open, but she didn't expect it to be so easy. This is a fifty-stone bow, which requires ten thousand pounds of strength.
After the flesh refining is completed, the warrior who has just entered the third level of body refining has a strength of about 10,000 kilograms, which is the level of Zhang Long.
But even if you have a force of ten thousand pounds, you cannot pull a bow that weighs ten thousand pounds.
Zhou Chen pulled it into a full moon so easily, the strength here must be 30,000 to 40,000 pounds, at least the fourth level of physical training or natural supernatural power! "Sir, you have great arm strength!"
Manager Xiao Heng came over clapping his hands, looking amazed.
“This bow is nice, but I still feel it’s too light!”
Zhou Chen slowly released the bowstring and casually placed it in the maid's arms.
"Sir, you have extraordinary powers. It just so happens that my Sihai Chamber of Commerce has received a new product, a second-level treasure bow. I'm sure you won't be disappointed!"
With a smile on his face, Xiao Heng brought Zhou Chen inside and took down a dark longbow from the shelf.
"This bow is called Soul Chaser. It is made of elite deep-sea cold iron, and the bowstring is made of the tendons of a demon beast python. If a divine archer holds it, it can chase souls thousands of miles away, and it is terrifying!"
The description of "chasing souls for thousands of miles" is an exaggeration, but this bow is indeed extraordinary.
Zhou Chen stretched out his hand and held it, an indescribable feeling surged in his heart, just like he had always played with street girls before, but today he was suddenly playing with a fairy sister, with an indescribable excitement and love.
“Nice bow!”
"Of course it's a good bow!"
Zhou Chen was delighted to see the prey, he touched it carefully, and then pulled it hard.
My body suddenly sank.
“So hard!”
Zhou Chen's strength had already exceeded 50,000 jins, and he added more than 2,000 Fengyue points last night, which increased his strength a lot, to about 70,000 jins.
Especially since Zhou Chen practiced the Yi archery technique, when using the bow and arrow, his strength of 70,000 jin is comparable to that of others' 100,000 jin!
When he completes his body training and his physical body transforms into an acquired arrow spirit body, he will be more compatible with the bow and arrow and can better exert the power of the bow and arrow.
Buzz! Astonishing aura surged, Xiao Heng's eyes widened. He never thought that Zhou Chen would pull the Soul-Chasing Bow to its full extent.
But he had heard that it would take a huge force of 100,000 kilograms to pull it to its full potential.
"Who is this person? There shouldn't be such a strong person in Qinghe City..."
Xiao Heng was thinking hard, this kind of strength might be from the seventh level of body refining, right?
certainly.
Except for some people who practice strength-based skills and those who are born with supernatural powers.
"good!"
Zhou Chen put away the bow and looked at Xiao Heng: "How much is this Soul Chasing Bow?"
"Sir, you should know that the price of a first-level weapon starts at one hundred taels, and the price of a second-level weapon starts at one thousand taels. The bow is the most expensive among the many weapons."
"As the saying goes, a precious sword is bestowed upon a hero. It is rare for the Soul-Chasing Bow to find a mentor like you, sir. I will give you two thousand taels for it!"
"OK!"
Zhou Chen knew that the price was too high, but Qinghe City probably was the only place that had a bow suitable for him, so it didn’t matter if it was a little more expensive.
Although Lu Xiao, the immortal cultivator, did not have a single spiritual stone, he had a lot of gold, silver, and jewelry, especially gold and silver bills.
This bow came with ten fine steel feather arrows, and Zhou Chen spent another twenty taels of silver to buy a hundred arrows.
"Sir, that's great!"
Xiao Heng smiled brightly, this was a great achievement and he would get a lot of commission.
"I want another knife."
"Don't worry, sir. We in the Sihai Chamber of Commerce have plenty of precious swords!"
With Xiao Heng's introduction, Zhou Chen spent another 1,200 taels to buy a second-order Lengyue sword.
"Mr. Han, take care!"
Looking at Zhou Chen's back, Xiao Heng kept thinking about the shooter named Han, who used a knife. Unfortunately, he couldn't think of anyone who fit the bill after thinking for a long time.
He didn't dare to send anyone to follow Zhou Chen. The opponent was too strong, and his archer was very sharp and his eyesight was terrifying.
There was no need for him to bring bad luck upon himself; he was just a salesman.
Zhou Chen left the Sihai Chamber of Commerce and after confirming that no one was following him, he came to an empty corner and put all his bow, arrow and sword into the Fengyue Treasure Mirror.
Then he removed all the disguises on his body, threw them into the Fengyue Baojian, and restored his original appearance.
Zhou Chen quietly left the deserted corner, blended into the street, came to the noodle shop in front of Yang Dingtian's shop and ordered three big bowls of beef noodles.
Yang Dingtian's shop is already open, and customers are coming in and out one after another.
Zhang Long and Zhao Hu came over, exhausted. When they saw Zhou Chen, they hurried over.
"Brother Chen, I heard that you encountered something strange yesterday. Are you okay?"
Zhang Long asked with concern.
"Don't worry, Brother Long. I'm lucky. I got through it safely and I'm safe and sound!"
Zhou Chen smiled slightly and asked, "Brother Long, did you catch up with that Tie Xiong?"
"Oh, don't mention it. That old guy is too well hidden. He is a master of the third level of physical training. I almost capsized in the ditch because he ran away!"
Zhang Long shook his head and sighed, then said: "I heard that you killed the second in command, Lu Xiao, well done!"
"That guy is just an embroidered pillow, not worth mentioning. He is the military strategist and think tank in Wolong Mountain, but he is not good at fighting. I shot him to death with one arrow!"
Zhou Chen waved his hands. He didn't want to be in the spotlight.
What's more, he had burned Lu Xiao's body, so just based on his words, there was no way to prove that he killed Lu Xiao.
“That’s not bad!”
Zhang Long had no doubts. After all, there weren't so many old perverts.
"The county magistrate also gave me three days off. Come to my house later for a drink to calm your nerves!" Zhang Long patted Zhou Chen on the shoulder and said.
"this……"
"What the hell, it's settled!"
"All right!"
After breakfast, Zhou Chen bought some meat buns and soy milk to bring back for Qin Hongyu as breakfast. Passing by Baicaotang, Zhou Chen went in to buy a box of ointment to reduce swelling and relieve pain.
Back home.
Qin Hongyu still didn't wake up, so Zhou Chen gave her some medicine.
The cool feeling woke Qin Hongyu up slowly, her cheeks flushed, and she said shyly in a low voice:
"Brother Chen, what are you doing?"
"Don't move, I'm applying medicine to you!"
"No, I just need to rest for a while..."
"Be good and listen to me!"
After applying the medicine, Zhou Chen washed his hands and brought breakfast to Qin Hongyu: "Brother Long invited me to his house for a drink, so you don't have to wait for me at home!"
"Um."
After Qin Hongyu finished her breakfast, Zhou Chen touched her head:
"You continue to rest, I'm leaving!"
To be honest, Zhou Chen missed the milky scent of Hongxiu Dabo.
After spending a day at Zhang Long's house, Zhou Chen felt refreshed, and all the previous gloom was gone.
It was ten o'clock in the evening when Zhou Chen returned home. After looking at the two thousand added romantic points, Zhou Chen was very satisfied.
Just like money is a man's confidence, romance is his confidence.
When I got home, Qin Hongyu was already asleep.
Zhou Chen lifted the quilt and crawled in.
"ah!"
Qin Hongyu cried out in pain, Zhou Chen frowned and immediately lit the oil lamp.
"Brother Chen, you're back."
Qin Hongyu hugged Zhou Chen happily.
"What happened to your hand?"
Zhou Chen pulled Qin Hongyu's hand and found several bruises on her elbows and shoulders. He became angry:
"Who did it?"
"Brother Chen, I accidentally fell and got hurt..."
"Hongyu, look into my eyes, what's going on?"
"Brother Chen, I'm fine. I just went out to buy groceries today and someone rode past me on the street at full speed. I fell when I tried to avoid him..."
Qin Hongyu didn't dare to look Zhou Chen in the eye and spoke in a low voice.
"That horse rider is so powerful? Who is it?"
"I heard that he is the young leader of the Salt Gang branch."
Qin Hongyu pulled Zhou Chen's arm and said hurriedly, "Brother Chen, I'm fine. It's better to have less trouble than more. I know you are capable, but I heard that the Salt Gang is very powerful. Even the county lord has to give the helmsman some face..."
"Shi Baoyu, the young leader of the Salt Gang branch?"
Zhou Chen had heard of the other party. He was 25 years old, at the second level of physical training, and usually bullied men and women. He was notorious and arrogant.
But because of his powerful background, the government turned a blind eye to him.
"Brother Chen, let's not provoke him, okay? I'm fine, let's take a rest. You don't want to be like that with him!"
Qin Hongyu hugged Zhou Chen's arm and shook it continuously. She was from the countryside, and although Zhou Chen had become rich, he was not an ordinary person.
She doesn't want to cause trouble.
"Okay, I'll listen to you!"
Zhou Chen smiled and picked up Qin Hongyu to rest, but he had already sentenced Shi Baoyu to death in his heart.
Qin Hongyu was lucky to dodge it today. If she hadn't dodged it, wouldn't she have been hit to death? Although he didn't want to cause trouble, he was not afraid of it.
Besides, what kind of rubbish is Shi Baoyu?
Not to mention him, even his father Shi Lei could be shot to death by Zhou Chen with one arrow.
He could be patient for a while and everything would be calm, but the more he thought about it, the angrier he got.
If he is some big shot, that's fine. He will just endure it and deal with him when he becomes stronger in the future.
But he was the dandy son of a small branch of the Salt Gang.
What a thing! Tonight he will act on behalf of heaven and eliminate harm for the people, which can be considered as accumulating virtue and doing good deeds! Besides, Zhou Chen is not a good person. If you provoke him, no matter whether you are a good person or a bad person, you will die!
"It's dry, be careful with fire!"
At three o'clock in the morning, the voice of the night watchman came from afar.
Zhou Chen looked at Qin Hongyu, who was holding him in his arms and had fallen asleep due to exhaustion. He lowered his head and kissed her, then quietly withdrew and left.
Wearing a mask, black clothes and a hat, Zhou Chen blended into the night.
It's a good night to kill! ...
