Beiyin Great Sage

Back at the treehouse, as expected, the 'neighbor' was still not there.

Nine times out of ten, I went to the casino.

In the past few days, the other party has only shown up a few times. Compared to his temporary residence here, the casino is probably more like his permanent home.

What a gamble!

It's not false at all.

Zhou Jia was actually very curious about the neighbor who occupied the tree house of Apu and his wife. He was not only curious about the situation of the barony, but also about his magical method of taming strange animals.

However, these methods must be the skills that the other party relies on for survival, and I am afraid it will not be spread to others.

Returning to the treehouse, he checked the layout when he left and confirmed that no one had been there before opening the hidden inner room.

He also took out a porcelain bottle from a hidden place in the inner room.

"Bo..."

Uncork the bottle and pour out a pill.

Danwan is about the size of a quail egg, dark brown in color, with an uneven surface. It feels heavy in the hand and has a strong medicinal smell.

Treasure medicine!

A precious medicine with five Origin Stones.

After taking it and refining it, you can gain more than 30 points of practice experience.

This item came from Cao Honglai's package. The effect and effort were not worth it in Zhou Jia's opinion. Fortunately, it was an unexpected gain and he didn't feel bad about taking the refining.

"Gulu..."

The medicine is dry and bitter, and I choke on it every time I take it.

But for cultivation, it’s okay to suffer a little.

As the smell of the medicine gradually faded away, a warm current began to emerge from his belly. Zhou Jia concentrated his mind and started refining the Three-Yuan Zhengfa.

An hour later, as heat rose from his body, he slowly opened his eyes.

Name: Zhou Jia

Cultivation level: Fifth-level mortal level Yijin (1403/4000)

Source Star: Earth Fierce Star (Trait: Violence)

Gongfa: Introduction to Three Yuan Zhengfa (102/300)

Martial skills: Shield counter proficiency (22/300), shield strike proficiency (19/120), cloak ax mastery (93/100)

The cultivation level has reached one-third of the fifth-grade Yi Jin, but the other aspects have not changed much. It is becoming more and more difficult to improve the experience of martial arts training.

The Cloak Ax Technique is only seven points away from reaching the proficiency stage, and I don't know when it will be achieved.

Zhou Jia too understood the benefits of proficient martial arts after fighting against others several times.

When facing Cao Honglai, he was full of martial arts skills. Except for the shield at the proficiency level, which was useful, the rest were all for show.

If one is proficient in the cloak and ax technique, it won't be so dangerous.

As for the violence…

It can only be used as a trump card. Once it is activated but fails to achieve success, facing the master, it is still a piece of meat on the chopping board for anyone to slaughter.

Fortunately, he currently has two bottles of precious medicine on hand, with a total of no less than forty pills.

Even if you can't take it continuously, you can improve your cultivation level to the late fifth level within half a year, and you should be able to advance to the sixth level in just over a year.

Those who provoke violence after the sixth level may be able to resist the eighth level.

In short,

The future is promising!

In addition to dozens of pills, Cao Honglai also left behind more than 170 Origin Stones and a set of inner armor that seemed to be of middle grade, giving Zhou Jia the feeling of getting rich overnight.

It would take an ordinary fifth-grade person countless years to accumulate such wealth.

In addition, there is a secret book called the Secret Breath of Nar.

This technique cannot increase your cultivation level, nor is it a martial skill, but it has a wonderful effect.

Hide the breath.

Unlike the Situ Lei Four, there must be people who can see through the strength of others in the Fish-Dragon Club, Hidden Dragons and Crouching Tigers. Cao Honglai has always been mistaken for the fifth rank because he practiced this method.

The secret book is recorded in the common language of the Ruins Realm. Zhou Jia had no difficulty in reading it. Unfortunately, he tried for several days and still failed to get started.

The next few days.

Zhou Jia didn't travel far anymore. Apart from eating, drinking and sleeping normally every day, he practiced martial arts, exercises and understood the Secret Breathing Technique.

Until.

"Deputy Head?"

Looking at Fatty Han, Zhou Jia was surprised:

"What do you mean, the mine needs to add a deputy director position?"

"That's right." Fatty Han nodded:

"Without Cao Honglai and Deacon Lu's secret embezzlement, the output of the mine has almost doubled. Coupled with other reasons, the meeting decided to add more manpower to the mine."

"The original manager was divided into one deputy manager and one deputy manager, and the number of guards was increased to five. Congratulations to Brother Zhou, you are now the deputy manager of the mine."

"Monthly money, four Origin Stones!"

There was a hint of envy in his tone.

As someone who had taken refuge in Wei Zhixing early, he was almost considered a confidant. Coupled with his hard work, he could only get two Origin Stones a month.

Fortunately, with the Origin Technique, I can be promoted to the fourth level this year. I think there will be new arrangements by then.

"Four Origin Stones, that's not bad." Zhou Jia's eyes lit up.

The more Origin Stones, the better. Even if he had nearly 200 Origin Stones on hand, he wouldn't mind adding more.

"By the way, who is the supervisor?"

"The supervisor is a person from Feimu world, named Samuel, a woman."

"Whose is she?"

"She doesn't belong to anyone." Fatty Han shook his head:

"I heard from Boss Wei that this woman was transferred from the outer hall. Although she is a woman, her methods are very dark. She has the strength of the sixth grade. You should be careful in the future."

Zhou Jia was thoughtful.

It doesn’t belong to anyone else, it’s the two leaders.

"One more thing." Fatty Han touched his chin and said:

"Lu Shan is dead. His body was found in the sewage ditch with no head. Cao Honglai should have done it."

"You have to be careful."

When Cao Hong came to kill Lu Shan, he most likely felt that he had been betrayed by him, but both of them knew the truth of the matter.

If Cao Honglai knew about it, he probably wouldn't let Zhou Jia go.

certainly.

No one knew that Cao Honglai had come here and followed in Lu Shan's footsteps.

"Dead." Zhou Jia's face was just astonished, and then he nodded seriously:

"I understand. I hardly go out these days. I believe Cao Honglai has escaped from Huojiabao by now."

"Um."

Fatty Han also thinks this should be the case.

Nowadays, the Fish and Dragon Society has fully wanted Cao Honglai. As long as he provides clues, he will be rewarded with Origin Stones. Unless he is stupid, he will definitely escape.

"Where is Deacon Lu?" Zhou Jia asked:

"What's going on with him?"

"The surname is Lu." Speaking of this, Fatty Han couldn't help but beam with joy:

"Because of the private sale of mineral deposits, he was driven to the outer hall to perform a mission in the Cloud Burial Forest. He will not be able to come back within three to five years and will most likely die outside."

"Why!"

"If the second elder hadn't been dedicated to protecting him, he should have been executed directly in public."

Deacon Lu is responsible for many errands of the Fish and Dragon Society. Now that he falls, Wei Zhixing, who has been prepared for a long time, will definitely take a bite out of him.

Fatty Han also benefited a lot from this.

…………

the next day.

Zhou Jia was supposed to report to the mine, but received a message from Hei Lian.

Yulonghui is engaged in the entertainment business, Liurentang is mainly engaged in gambling houses, and Black Lotus is mainly engaged in buying and selling news, as well as black market transactions.

Every once in a while, Black Lotus will sell a batch of news and distribute it in a newspaper-like format.

When Zhou Jia has a lot of money, he will also buy a copy to take a look at it, so that he can understand the latest situation around Huojiabao and avoid being blinded.

This time, a piece of news made his face change and his heart beat faster.

"Enter the city!"

"Fifty yuan money!"

"Give."

After hurriedly paying the money, Zhou Jia ran all the way until he came to Situ Lei's house, calmed his breathing and knocked on the door.

"How did you come?"

Situ Lei opened the door and looked up and down:

"Is something wrong?"

"Well, that..." Zhou Jia opened his mouth and said:

"Have you heard that Mr. Huo took a group of people out for hunting a few days ago. They were attacked on the way and the team suffered heavy losses."

"That's what happened." Situ Lei nodded:

"What's wrong?"

"I heard." Zhou Jia's throat turned:

"The giant sword Dingmen was also in the team, but unfortunately he died."

"Really?" Situ Lei was stunned:

"The eighth-grade master is also dead. It seems that the opponent they encountered is not simple. However, what does this have to do with you?"

"Uh..." Zhou Jia was stunned and hesitated before saying:

"I was thinking, if these people die, will they leave something behind? I have quite a lot of money recently, so I wanted to see if I could buy something."

He couldn't say that the source star he wanted was in the weapon of the giant sword Dingmen.

"What are you thinking about?" Situ Lei was speechless:

"Not to mention that after their death, their belongings must be left to their descendants. Even if there are no descendants, they will be recovered by the Huo Mansion for a rich burial."

"Um……"

Having said this, he frowned slightly:

"Not necessarily. Sometimes the descendants of the deceased will sell their things if they don't live up to expectations. There is a street in the inner city dedicated to this kind of business."

"If you are interested in these, I can help you ask. Maybe you can find good things there."

"Thank you!"

Zhou Jia handed over his hand.

I rushed here as soon as I got the news. Now it seems that it was a bit too impulsive.
