Chapter 88: Huge harvest, breaking through the muscle barrier!
After confirming again that the man tied up with chains had no memory, Cheng Ye waved to Dalong.
"Let's disperse first and stop staring at each other."
The population density in the mall was really too high. Everywhere you looked, there were crowds of people, comparable to the scene of old men and women scrambling for eggs at the opening of a modern shopping mall. Even Cheng Ye himself felt a little scalp-tingling just looking at it.
Dalong immediately raised his hand to signal, and the originally tense atmosphere instantly relaxed.
However, everyone tried to keep the noise they made as low as possible while working. A few half-grown children were pulled aside by their parents, but they still couldn't help but stick their heads out to look around curiously, their eyes fixed on Cheng Ye without blinking.
Although the family members have repeatedly reminded them in the past two days that they must show the utmost respect when meeting Prosecutor Cheng, with their limited experience, they really can't understand why this young man who looks no different from the older brother next door can command such respect from a group of people who are much older than him.
Is he just a prosecutor?
Cheng Ye ignored the children's scrutiny and walked with Dalong to a corner where Jiang Chuan couldn't see him. He frowned and asked, "What's going on with that guy?"
“That’s right.”
Dalong spoke quickly, "This guy named 'Jiangchuan' is very motivated. He came all the way to our B-7 and kept trying to bribe everyone to get information about you."
He told the story of how Boss Huang met Jiang Chuan at the intersection, the stall owner was questioned, and Chen Dong and others noticed something unusual.
Dalong added, "He's a tough guy. Prosecutor Cheng, you should practice martial arts too, right?"
"Yes," Cheng Ye nodded, "What realm is he in?"
"At least it is the unity of heaven and man."
"Um?"
Cheng Ye was stunned for a moment, "How can you be sure?"
"Well, I'm at the Embryo Realm, and I'm completely no match for him." Dalong scratched his head in a simple manner, "It's the kind of thing where I couldn't even resist the first time we met, and was instantly knocked down."
"Are you carrying the baby?"
Compared to the news that Jiang Chuan had achieved the unity of man and nature, Cheng Ye was surprised by Dalong's realm.
He always thought that Dalong was just an ordinary person with good skills, but he didn't expect that he also practiced martial arts?
"Back then, in order to keep everyone alive, the Corps would intensively teach some fighting and internal energy techniques every weekend." Dalong explained, with a hint of embarrassment in his tone. Perhaps it was because he had just been easily suppressed by Jiang Chuan, and he really had no reason to be proud.
"My talent is pretty decent, and I haven't dared to slack off over the years. I've been practicing Erlong and holding the fetus, but what we practice are all the standard fighting styles of the Corps, which can't compare to the methods taught by the real gods themselves."
“Is there any difference?”
"Yes, there are indeed different levels of opening the tendons. The higher the level, the more body control ability can be improved. Holding a Taoist fetus seems to be what he just said I was holding a fake fetus, but I don't understand it myself."
"Harmony between man and nature"
Cheng Ye pondered it.
According to the known information, Miao Yang is at the Embryo Stage, but does not have Lv4 skills, which means that the unity of man and nature should correspond to Lv4.
Among the strangers I have met so far, Master Tian with Lv4 skills is one, Chu Yunfeng is another, and now Jiang Chuan has appeared, which is not too surprising.
After all, this new martial arts system is not like what is written in martial arts novels, where once you enter the state of unity between man and nature, you can fly over eaves and walls and do anything.
Just like Jiang Chuan, wasn't he tied up obediently?
If you want to make it in life, you still need power and background.
But then again, Cheng Ye originally planned to wait until the charging was complete, search for a few more Lv1 talent skills and fuse them to see the specific improvement effects.
But now that I have met a target with such a high degree of cooperation as Jiang Chuan, it would be a shame not to try to increase the cooperation to 100% and search for Lv3 skills.
He pondered for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, "Dalong, you have to cooperate with me in doing something later."
"Your Excellency, please tell me that our community may not be good at anything else, but when it comes to cooperation, no community in this buffer zone dares to claim to be second to none!"
Dalong patted his chest, very confident.
After Cheng Ye finished explaining the specific arrangements, he reassured, "This is easy! Give me two minutes to prepare, and I'll make sure everything is arranged perfectly, without any problems!"
"That's good, go and make the arrangements."
Cheng Ye nodded slightly.
Ever since he found out that the prosecutor's identity had a hidden bonus to the search, he had been thinking about how to use this identity. Although this was his first attempt, he had rehearsed the entire process in his mind many times.
If it works, it will be much more convenient to search for people in the buffer zone in the future.
Cheng Ye asked Dalong to leave. Jiangchuan was not surprised and just sat quietly on the ground waiting.
He rehearsed the upcoming confrontation between the two in his mind, thinking about how to phrase it so that Cheng Ye would believe him.
Moreover, he could not reveal his identity. He must not let Cheng Ye know that he was sent by Stationmaster Ding to test him.
However, after a minute or two, Cheng Ye still didn't show up.
Just when he was wondering.
The people working around suddenly became agitated, and many of them ran towards the room screaming, especially the children, who crawled out.
What happened? Jiang Chuan's heart sank suddenly!
Then, with a few clicks, the lights in the mall dimmed layer by layer, and finally only one activity area was still dimly lit, and the shadows around it instantly became thicker.
More than thirty strong men walked out from the dark shadows, each of them exuding a murderous aura.
As if dealing with a stand-in starfish, the eight people in front covered themselves from head to toe with plastic sheets, and wore masks and hoods on their faces, leaving only a pair of vigilant eyes exposed.
The twenty or so people behind him all looked nervous, holding rifles in their hands, with the black muzzles aimed at him.
What is this for?
Jiang Chuan's heart was shocked, and the words that had been brewing in his mind disappeared in an instant, and the calmness on his face was finally broken.
But at this moment.
Pop.
A bullet suddenly hit the ground beside him, splashing sparks.
The moment the gunshot rang in his ears, Jiang Chuan almost instinctively rolled over on the ground. His heart was beating so wildly that it seemed like it was going to burst through his chest, and a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his back.
"Turn off the safety! We haven't confirmed it's an infected body yet. Who told you to shoot without permission?"
Dalong walked up quickly from behind, reached out and slapped the man who fired the gun on the back of his head, with a scolding tone in his voice.
Then, he turned to Jiang Chuan, who was still lying on the ground, and said in an embarrassing tone, "Mr. Jiang Chuan, Prosecutor Cheng suspects that you are an infected person who sneaked in. Now he wants to interrogate and investigate you. Is this acceptable to you?"
"What?"
Jiang Chuan suddenly propped himself up from the ground, his face full of disbelief, "How could I be an infected person?"
He subconsciously wanted to reveal his identity as a checkpoint clerk, but when the words came to his lips, Ding Yishan's instructions flashed through his mind again, and he had to swallow them back.
"Don't you believe in Prosecutor Cheng's ability? Is he going to wrongly accuse you?"
Dalong's eyes turned cold. "You sneaked in here to ask questions, but you're unwilling to reveal your identity. Inspector Cheng suspects you're possessed by a special hydrophilic infection source. Let me examine you now. Is there anything wrong?"
"No problem."
Jiang Chuan hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and nodded.
As long as he had a chance to talk to Cheng Ye, he could still make an excuse, but if he was beaten by these ruffians as an infected person, then his life would be lived in vain.
"Very good, walk there yourself."
Dalong pointed to a room on the first floor that was previously used to isolate the infected. "Or should we help you?"
"I'll go on my own."
Jiang Chuan stood up and walked into the room with his head held high.
As the door fence was pulled up from the outside, he suddenly felt an extremely absurd feeling in his heart.
How many years have passed, and I'm still being locked up and interrogated as an infected person?
But fortunately, from the information collected, Prosecutor Cheng does not behave like a scoundrel, but rather has a bit of a beginner's attitude.
"If you don't learn from the tiger, how can you get a tiger cub?"
"The stationmaster asked me to investigate Cheng Ye's background. I pretended to be infected and had myself examined. Does that count as an investigation?"
His mind was in a mess, but he heard footsteps coming again from not far away.
At the same time, a dazzling light shone down from the second floor, making it a little difficult for him to open his eyes.
"Name!"
"Jiangchuan."
"age?"
“336!”
"gender?"
"male!"
Jiang Chuan was not surprised. He had seen in the information he had collected that Prosecutor Cheng liked to ask some strange questions.
"Next I will ask you three questions to verify your identity."
"Prosecutor Cheng, please feel free to speak."
Jiang Chuan calmed himself down and tried to keep his tone steady despite being surrounded by guns.
"First question, what's the level of your Jinguan?"
"I'm here, yeah."
Jiang Chuan had already prepared himself to be questioned about his purpose, and subconsciously wanted to answer along the lines of his previous thoughts. He said three words before suddenly coming to his senses, "My tendon barrier?"
"Do you need me to repeat the question?"
Cheng Ye's voice was flat. The glaring light shone down from above. Jiang Chuan could only see his blurry silhouette from behind and could not make out the changes in his facial expression at all.
He was stunned for a moment, then suppressed his doubts and said in a deep voice: "Twelve tendon barriers, each barrier breaks the limit."
"What is normal and what is breaking the limit?"
Cheng Ye followed up with a question, speaking at a steady pace.
"Talents vary in level. Opening a level increases your ability to control your body by half, which is considered average."
He paused, then looked at Dalong. "If you can improve by 10%, you'll be excellent. If you can improve by 15%, you'll be top-tier, but you'll break the limit."
"One level raises 20%!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dalong's expression changed and became noticeably gloomy.
According to Jiang Chuan, if all twelve levels are normal, it would be a 60% bonus.
But if you break the limit at every level, it will be 240%, a full four times difference between the two.
And these are just paper data. The higher the increase, the more obvious the benefits will be.
"very good!"
Cheng Ye's voice fluctuated slightly, but he suppressed it so that the changes were almost inaudible.
The coordination rate on the panel in the upper right corner of the field of view also quietly floated to 99.4%.
"Of the twelve stamina gates, which one is the most important?"
"Most important?"
Jiang Chuan was completely confused and suddenly felt like he was being left behind by the times. Had the methods of today's young prosecutors evolved to this level?
"Feet, knees, hips, waist, shoulders, elbows, wrists, neck, jaw, between eyebrows, heart, and Dantian."
He listed the twelve levels in order and continued, "The Dantian is the most crucial. Once you clear it, you can unify the strength of your entire body. When you exert force, it's like a surging wave, with endless stamina. However, without the coordination of the other eleven levels, it's useless."
"If we were to talk about just one barrier, it would be the waist and spine barrier. Once you clear it, your body can twist like a snake, and when you take a hard hit, you can absorb the force like cotton."
This is good!
Cheng Ye's eyes lit up. Wouldn't it be safer if he could unload the force with an iron body and then put on armor?
However, the degree of coordination in the upper right corner of the panel is still 0.2% off.
"One last question."
"The last time?" Jiang Chuan perked up, and the words he had prepared in his mind got stuck on his lips again.
"Ordinary Jinguan, is there any possibility of improvement in the future?"
"Um?"
Jiangchuan was stunned, and Dalong who was standing beside him was also stunned.
The difference is that a complex expression flashed in the former's eyes, while the latter's lips moved slightly, and he almost couldn't hold back his expression.
"Of course, but Prosecutor Cheng should know the way I said it."
“Okay!”
In the upper right corner of the panel, the degree of cooperation finally reaches the maximum value.
Cheng Ye growled and clicked the search button without hesitation.
【Search successful! 】
Lines of text unfolded on the panel, and a dazzling golden-purple light flashed. Cheng Ye was startled and almost cried out in surprise.
【Jiangchuan (Symbiotic Residual State)】

"Red Perfect?"
Cheng Ye's heart was shocked. Could this be the panel of a strong man?
There are four dazzling red talents, and two rare skills below them.
Just to complete the twelve breaking muscle barriers, he would need to search twelve times.
What's even more terrifying is that Jiangchuan has as many as thirteen ordinary Lv3 skills.
What is the concept?
The number of Lv1 skills is the same as Chu Yunfeng's.
But what Cheng Ye cared about most was the locked Lv5 skill displayed at the bottom of the panel.
extraordinary?
Is this Jiang Chuan a supernatural being?
"Symbiotic remnant."
His eyes fell on the description behind Jiang Chuan's name, and Cheng Ye's mind suddenly flashed with Zhang Can's words before his death.
I'm missing something, so I can't be extraordinary.
Could it be that Jiang Chuan is also missing something, so only some of his extraordinary abilities remain?
In a flash, there was no time to think about more questions.
Cheng Ye lowered his head slightly, pretending to think, but actually his eyes were fixed on several talents.
Before seeing these perfect talents, he would have chosen the lumbar spine without hesitation.
But now.
The Yuncao physique is simply perfect for use with the Iron Body, and it directly fills the gaps.
But at the same time, he couldn't help but have some fantasies in his mind. If he broke the limit state and added the iron body, to what extent would his control over his body be improved?
After hesitating for a few moments, the scene of his fight with Zhang Can flashed through his mind, and his thoughts instantly became clear.
Why is Zhang Can so difficult to deal with? Isn’t it because of his ability to devour and recover?
Only when you are alive can you produce results!
"Search, Cloud Grass Physique."
The probability is 25%, which increases to 75% when combined with 100% coordination.
The panel flickered.
As Cheng Ye prayed silently, lines of pleasant words slowly popped up.
【Search successful】
[Civilization Collector has successfully recorded: Cloud Grass Physique (Lv.3; Talent; Perfect)]
[Detection collector does not have the corresponding special power, talent form changes]
[Wild Grass Physique (Rare, Moderately Enhanced Physical Recovery)]
"It's okay. The name is a bit lame, but the effect shouldn't be reduced too much."
"After all, it's a rare talent."
I didn’t expect that I could search for Lv3 skills the day after the collector was upgraded.
For a moment, Cheng Ye was in a good mood.
After closing the panel, he raised his head and nodded slightly, "It's not an infected body, everyone, don't be nervous."
"OK!"
"Great! I was so scared just now!"
"I told you, no infected person would dare to come into our community."
"Hurry up, what are you all standing there for!"
Dalong shouted hurriedly, "Why don't you untie Mr. Jiang and ask him to come out? Forget it, give me the key!"
Taking the key, Dalong strode over and started to untie the chains on Jiangchuan, muttering apologies all the time.
A series of operations made Jiang Chuan dazed again, and for a moment he didn't know what the world was.
hiss.
Is this the cooperation of being the most outspoken?
Outside the fence, Cheng Ye was also a little surprised. Not only was Dalong's acting realistic, but even the men he picked out were comparable to movie stars.
wrong
Do these people really think that Jiang Chuan is an infected person?
When Cheng Ye saw Dalong secretly winking at him, he was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
But after this verification, he confirmed one thing: this method really works.
As long as someone enters the buffer zone, we can find any excuse to catch him and put him into inspection mode, and the degree of cooperation will definitely increase.
Of course, you can't do this all the time, because if you get reported, you'll be in trouble.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry."
Cheng Ye stepped forward and said calmly, "The infection wave has just passed, and the whole community is very vigilant. That's why they mistakenly thought you were infected. I hope you can bear with me."
"ah?"
Jiang Chuan had just walked out of the room, his mind still in a mess. He nodded subconsciously and replied, "I understand. I understand."
"Then you can go."
"well"
When Jiang Chuan heard that he could leave, he quickly got up and walked away, but when he was almost at the door, he suddenly stopped.
Wait, why should I leave?
Didn’t I come here to find Cheng Ye and find out his background?
"Hey, anything else?"
Cheng Ye's voice came from behind, with a hint of smile, "Could it be that Mr. Jiang is looking for me for something else?"
Eh?
Yes, I have something to talk to him about!
In a split second, Jiang Chuan's chaotic thoughts suddenly cleared up, and he practically blurted out, "Inspector Cheng, the station has received your medical application. It looks like your injuries are serious, and you'll need to stay in the clinic for at least ten days, half a month. So, they sent me, a clerk, to check on you, help you pack your luggage, and then handle the paperwork for you once you get to the clinic, saving you the hassle of running back and forth."
When Cheng Ye examined him before, these words almost suffocated him to death.
At this moment, Jiang Chuan let out all his breath and felt an unprecedented sense of comfort all over his body. The feeling of pleasure was quite similar to the feeling he had after fighting with the fusion body in the water for three hundred rounds in Linjiang.
He straightened his back and looked at Cheng Ye, his eyes finally showing some confidence.
No matter how outrageous the interrogation just now was, at least now he has taken on the task assigned by Ding Yishan.
"Okay, let's go. I just need help moving some things."
Cheng Ye nodded.
He walked out first, leaving Jiang Chuan standing in the passage with a confused look on his face.
After hesitating for two seconds, he quickly took a step forward to catch up.
It’s that simple?
Then why did he go to so much trouble and still get arrested by the community?
After leaving the mall, fresh air hit Jiang Chuan in the face, and he suddenly felt that the world had gone crazy to the point that he could no longer recognize it.
This B-7 area, this Tianyuan community, this Inspector Cheng.
His past experience was completely ineffective here, and everything was going in a direction he had never imagined.
"Mr. Jiang?"
"Uh," Jiang Chuan coughed lightly, trying to hide his confusion. "Prosecutor Cheng, just call me by my name."
"Okay, thank you."
Cheng Ye reached out his hand and patted him on the shoulder with a gentle look in his eyes. "I think we are quite destined to be together. If you want to come to see me in the future, just give me a call. There is no need to go through so much trouble."
"Fate?"
Jiang Chuan was stunned for a moment, looking down at his shoulder that had been patted, feeling that there was some inexplicable meaning hidden in these two words.
He looked up at Cheng Ye, who had a frank smile on his face, but the kindness in his eyes suddenly made this self-proclaimed shrewd clerk feel a little confused.
However, this is good news.
In the future, Stationmaster Ding will definitely ask him to come over to investigate the changes in Inspector Cheng. If they can get familiar with each other, he won't have to hide like he did today.
"I live in the Chaoyang Electronics Factory complex, just two blocks away."
Cheng Ye was in front, and Jiang Chuan followed silently behind.
It was during working hours and there was no one wandering around in the community.
Pushing open the security door and seeing the extremely simple furnishings inside, Jiang Chuan pursed his lips.
He wanted to say something, but he felt that their relationship was not yet at the point where they could talk.
"If it's convenient, please bring these books with me. I can read them while I'm in the hospital."
"Book?"
Jiang Chuan took the carton and glanced at the contents on the cover, and was slightly stunned.
The sight of handwritten books was not surprising, but they were all about dealing with infected bodies, and there wasn't a single magazine about the old times.
You know, even Station Manager Ding would usually read some magazines to relieve boredom.
"And these clothes, can you take them?"
Cheng Ye opened the wardrobe and took out some spare clothes.
Jiang Chuan turned his head and took a glance, the first thing he saw was a basket of rags in the closet, and he was stunned again.
"Um?"
"Oh, oh, if you can get it, just give it to me!"
The clothes and books were taken away, and only some unopened bullets were left in the room.
Cheng Ye hid two long guns under the bed, so they were not suitable to be taken to the medical clinic.
As for the nutrient paste, the leftovers have expired, and I don't think the medical center will be short of food for him.
"Let's go!"
