Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

Chapter 19 019, entering the product, the world is big
It feels very strange to take a medicated bath.

It was as if countless little hands were caressing his flesh.

It also seemed that there was some kind of invisible airflow, drilling fiercely into the body along every pore on the top and bottom of his body.

And as those invisible air currents drilled into his muscles, Shen Lang only felt that every muscle in his body seemed to be violently hammered, stretched, and twisted by invisible forces, which gave him a feeling that his whole body The muscles are all iron, and they are receiving the illusion of being folded and forged.

When the medicinal liquid turned gray-black, the strange medicinal fragrance dissipated, and all kinds of strange sensations inside and outside his body also disappeared. Shen Lang came out of the bathtub, picked up a bucket of cold water, washed away the remaining medicinal juice on his body, put on his clothes, and came Go to the courtyard, put on a posture, and punch.

After practicing a fist move, Shen Lang suddenly felt a strange feeling deep in his body when he was sweating profusely and his whole body was hot.He instinctively followed that feeling to kick his legs, twist his legs, throw his shoulders, and punch.

Snapped!
A crisp sound erupted from the front of Fist Peak.

After three days of hard training.

Shen Lang finally integrated his whole body's strength into one, twisted it into one strand, made the first empty sound, and officially stepped into the realm of the ninth rank of martial arts.

Well, it's just a new product, so it can't be regarded as a great success.

It was because he had practiced a whole set of thirteen moves before he could make this empty sound.

As for a martial artist of the ninth rank, he only needs to store up a little bit of energy to make an ultimate move, and then he can make an empty sound. He doesn't need to warm up for thirteen moves for as long as he does.

Afterwards, Shen Lang tried to punch with the same posture while recalling the feeling just now, but he always only punched with a whistling sound, without that crisp and sharp bang.

After pondering for a while, he started a fist fight again, and after the thirteen strokes were finished, he followed the instinct gushing out of his body to punch again, and sure enough, he punched again.

"Tsk, although it takes thirteen moves to warm up before you can hit an empty shot, but it's finally a formal entry. Moreover, my strength seems to be much stronger than ordinary people..."

The mark of a ninth-rank warrior is to exert all strength, twist the muscles of the whole body into one strand, and gather at one point to explode.

But those who are both full strength, born with great strength, and even born with supernatural power are stronger than ordinary warriors.

Shen Lang is not considered a person with natural power. Although his strength is greater than that of ordinary people, it is the explosive power brought about by the agility enhancement, which is a side benefit.

But at this moment, he felt that his strength was much stronger than that of three days ago. He tried to move a stone bench weighing more than a hundred catties in the yard, but with a sudden exertion of both hands, he lifted it off the ground, and then struggled to move it. In one fell swoop, he lifted the stone bench above his head.

Lifting a hundred catties with strength is still a stone bench with a smooth surface, no handles, and is not easy to grab. Shen Lang feels that his strength in these two arms is already quite good.

Afterwards, he put down the stone bench, struck the iron while it was hot, and consolidated his newly acquired cultivation. Seeing that it was getting late and he had to go to work tomorrow, he hurriedly took a cold shower and rinsed with a pig temple toothbrush dipped in green salt. I rinsed my mouth and went to bed.

At night, Shen Lang slept soundly, Xiao Zhao lay on his chest, and slept soundly.

Only the little fish in the pond in the yard, spitting bubbles resentfully:

[I'm going to the house too!Stupid Shen Lang, buy me a fish tank...]

……

Early the next morning, Shen Lang changed into the yamen servant uniform issued by the yamen, with a square cap on his head and a single sword hanging from his waist.

Xiao Zhao squatted on the top of the wall, waving a small front paw to say goodbye to him: 【Come back early! 】

Shen Lang waved his hand:

"Be good at home and help take care of the little fish. It can't move freely like you."

【OK! 】

I went to the Yamen to order Mao, and got to know my colleagues again—in fact, my colleagues had known him for a long time. After all, when the Wangjiazhuang was wiped out, the policemen and Yamen servants in Changsheng County almost all came out.

Therefore, everyone knew this man who was favored by Mrs. Mu because of a kitten. She even took care of her and recommended him to the magistrate with a written letter.

Regarding the fact that Shen Lang hugged Master Mu's thigh with a kitten, the arresting yamen servants were naturally envious and jealous, but there was nothing they could do about it, why didn't they raise a kitten that could win Master Mu's favor?

After a friendly greeting with his colleagues, Shen Lang followed Zhu Hu to patrol the streets.

……

"Most of the things that we policemen in county towns usually do are just small things like patrolling the streets, maintaining law and order, and catching small thieves. To be honest, I would In the past seven years, the police only ran into this one time.

"Speaking of which, in recent years, the law and order in our Changsheng County has been much worse than before. I heard from my father that when he was young, no matter in the city or in the countryside, there were rarely one or two murders a year. It's not like Now, not only are there murder cases every month in the city and the countryside, but there are also big thieves like Wangjiazhuang...

"In fact, our Changsheng County is quite good. After all, it is a remote and poor county that is rare in Yingzhou Prefecture. There are not many dregs interested in us here. Those coastal counties in the southeast of Yingzhou Peninsula, as well as Yingzhou Prefecture, That's called a group of demons dancing...

"Tsk, since the opening of the sea in Yingzhou, we can say that the world has gone downhill and people's hearts have been corrupted in our eastern land."

It is still a bustling street market, Zhu Hu told Shen Lang about ancient times while taking Shen Lang to familiarize himself with the streets.

Shen Lang, who wants to know more information, of course has to be funny:

"Yingzhou opens the sea? How do you say it?"

Zhu Hu cleared his throat, and beamed happily:
"Brother Shen, do you know how big our world is? Well, you don't remember, so brother, I talked to you Haosheng.

"We, the Great Chu of the Eastern Land, stand at the eastern pole of the earth, and we are the largest country in the Eastern Land with a population of [-] million.

"However, although the Eastern Land is large, it is only a corner of the world. There are many other countries besides the Great Chu.

"The Izumo island country outside the East China Sea is too small, so let's not talk about it; let's not talk about the fragmented and insignificant small countries in Southeast Asia. Let's just talk about the west of the Western Regions, and then west of the extreme west. There is a land of Xizhou. On the land of Xizhou, there are also many states. Because it is far away from my great Chu by oceans, it is called 'Western States'."

"Although the western countries are not as vast as our Great Chu and have a population of hundreds of millions of unified empires, they should not be underestimated. They not only have a perfect practice system as my Great Chu, but also have strong industrial and commercial capabilities ...and they are also ambitious and predatory.

"Because there are grassland barbarians in the north and desert bandits in the west, my Great Chu often harassed the border and plundered the people. Therefore, since the founding of the country a hundred years ago, I have always paid more attention to land power and stationed heavy troops in the western regions and northern borders. For the southeast coast, just Don't pay much attention to it.

"As a result, the imperial court discovered that the sea goods coming from the southeast coast were increasing year by year, and the items from overseas were becoming more and more diverse. When they finally turned their attention to the sea, they discovered that for a hundred years, several major Western countries have developed business, sailed and colonized. Moving eastward, we have expanded our power to Nanyang, occupying many colonies in Nanyang, and even a few Nanyang vassal states that were granted the golden seal of my Great Chu were actually wiped out by Western countries.

"It was only then that the imperial court began to pay attention to Nanyang, and opened the sea in Yingzhou 25 years ago. On the one hand, it supported and encouraged maritime merchants to trade with Western countries, inquired about the details of Western countries, learned from each other's strengths, and absorbed practical Western knowledge and technology. On the one hand, build a large navy, patrol Nanyang, declare national power, protect vassals and expatriates, and expand the influence of Great Chu in Nanyang.

"In the 25 years since Yingzhou opened the sea, the imperial court's influence in Nanyang has greatly increased, and even helped a small vassal country that was destroyed to successfully restore the country. The increasingly prosperous maritime trade has also made Yingzhou prosperous and prosperous.

"But although there are many benefits brought by opening the sea, there are also many disadvantages.

"Many people go overseas to do business, broaden their horizons, earn a lot of money, become wild and dirty, and start to pursue taboos that shouldn't be touched, and even serve evil gods. The wealthy merchants rely on their family status and power to plunder. There are also some people who have no power and power and want to get something for nothing, so they start the business without capital...

"In short, as the years passed, Yingzhou became more and more prosperous, and the court became more and more prosperous. The national situation seemed to be flourishing, but this moral heart seemed to be constantly declining...

"Brother Shen, do you know that Mr. Mu originally worked in the Criminal Department of the capital, why did he travel thousands of miles to go to Yingzhou in person this time?"
