Chapter 1 Changlong Escort
Dayan, Yunxiao County, Wuxiang City.

Changlong Escort training ground.

At this time, the atmosphere here is very warm.

"Lin Sheng's monthly salary for Lin's bodyguard is ten taels."

"Luo Qiang, the monthly salary of the bodyguard is 12 taels."

......

The sound of singing resounded over the backyard, looking at the bodyguards who came to the stage to receive their monthly salary, all the staff in the bodyguard bureau were full of envy.

For them, becoming an escort and earning a lot of money every month is already the biggest dream in life.

Zhao Ya stood in the group of handymen, but his attention was not on these bodyguards.

He looked at the middle-aged man with a calm demeanor sitting on a chair on the stage, with curiosity in his eyes.

Is this Meng Lei, the chief escort of the Changlong Escort Bureau, who is well-known throughout the Elephant Dance City?

Speaking of which, it has been more than a month since he joined the Changlong Escort as a handyman, and this is the first time Zhao Ya has seen this Escort Chief Meng, so he is naturally curious.

At this moment, Meng Lei on the stage seemed to feel something, and glanced at Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya felt that Chief Meng's gaze was as sharp as a sword, and quickly lowered his head, his heart was boiling with anger.

Just relying on his eyes can make him like this, he really deserves to be a warrior in the forging state.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya was not surprised but happy, his thoughts moved slightly, and a light curtain invisible to others appeared in front of his eyes.

Name: Zhao Ya.Age: 16.Remaining life: 20 years.

Skills: Five Tiger Boxing (32/100 for beginners).

Looking at the item of remaining life, Zhao Ya secretly sighed.

Although the lifespan of ordinary people in this world is very short, according to the above tips, I can live to be in my 30s at most, not even [-].

Is this an untimely death?

Zhao Ya also had some guesses about this, thinking that it should have something to do with the tragic childhood experience of his predecessor.

After all, the world is difficult, and the parents of the predecessor passed away due to an accident when he was a child. Without being cared for, he survived only by relying on the charity of others.

Maybe it hurt his vitality because of it.

If it weren't for the back and front body relying on their own efforts to gain a firm foothold and barely enough to eat enough, they probably wouldn't even have this lifespan, let alone pass the assessment of the Escort Bureau and become a handyman.

Then Zhao Ya opened another light curtain.

This light curtain is an extremely complex outline of the human body, with all the viscera, six organs, meridians and acupoints. At first glance, it looks like a sky full of stars, which is dizzying.

But at this moment, most of the areas were shrouded in gray mist, and only the stomach area showed a glimmer of brilliance.

[Stomach unlocking progress: 2%]

Seeing the unlocking progress, Zhao Ya secretly sighed.

It has been more than a month since he traveled to this world, and at this time Zhao Ya has roughly figured out the function of his golden finger.

Needless to say, the attribute panel at the beginning, it shows the skills he knows.

The key is the outline of the human body in the back.

Zhao Ya found that the outline of the human body was closely related to himself, and it should be a reflection of the real situation of his body.

But up to now, Zhao Ya has not figured out what is going on with this unlocking progress, and how he can speed up the unlocking progress.

But no matter what, with the blessing of this golden finger, Zhao Ya is confident to make a breakthrough in this world of practicing Dachang.

Especially after seeing the demeanor of the head of the escort Meng, Zhao Ya's idea was deepened.

Because this is a world where strength is paramount, as long as you have strong strength, you will live a life of style, otherwise you can only be reduced to the bottom and be slaughtered by others.

A trace of determination appeared in Zhao Ya's eyes.

At this moment, someone beside him suddenly pushed him.

"Hey, why are you in a daze, it's time for us to get our wages."

Zhao Ya turned his head to look, and reminded himself that he was also a handyman of the Changlong Escort, named Tan Dong.

This person has a cheerful personality, and after more than a month of getting along with Zhao Ya, his relationship with Zhao Ya is pretty good.

Zhao Ya nodded, and followed the servants to wait in front of the stage.

At this time, the bodyguards had already finished paying their salaries, and all the bodyguards had already been led to the front hall for dinner.

This is the rule of the Changlong Escort Bureau. There will be a dinner for the bodyguards every month when the salary is paid, which can be regarded as a kind of team building.

But Meng Lei, the head of the escort, did not leave. He was standing on the stage with a smile and talking to the paid travelers.

"Liu Lin, you did a good job last month, keep working hard."

"Wang He, I heard that you are engaged, congratulations."

......

No matter who it is, Meng Lei can accurately call the other party's name and know their situation well.

And the people who were stopped naturally showed flattered expressions, and the eyes of those who were shallow-minded and even excited were red.

After all, they are just troopers of the bodyguard bureau, but they can get the kind care of the head of the bodyguard, how can this not be exciting.

Looking at this scene through the crowd, Zhao Ya couldn't help but secretly nodded.

Sure enough, there is no easy person who can make a career out of it. Leaving aside Meng Lei's cultivation level, it is worthwhile for him to be in charge of such a huge Changlong Escort with this skill.

"I'm really envious. When will I be able to be a trooper and receive the care and greetings of the head of the escort." Tan Dong who was on the side couldn't help sighing when he saw this.

"That's probably enough." Zhao Ya said.

"What?"

Zhao Ya glanced at Tan Dong, "Why don't you know? Just say what did you do the night before?"

Embarrassment appeared on Tan Dong's face, "Didn't I just...go for a drink?"

"You can't straighten your waist the next day after drinking?" Zhao Ya laughed.

Tan Dong: "...."

Then he gritted his teeth suddenly, and said with a face full of grief and indignation.

"I won't go again in the future. I want to practice martial arts well and strive to become a trooper as soon as possible."

Zhao Ya was noncommittal.

At this time, many trippers had already received their monthly salary, and Meng Lei didn't stay any longer.

I saw him waving his hands at Zhao Ya and the handymen, "Thanks for your hard work, everyone."

Then turned away.

"Tan Dong, pay for one or two months."

"Shi Sen, one or two and one money."

"Zhao Ya, one or two dollars."

......

Accompanied by the crackling sound of the accountant dialing the abacus, Zhao Ya received his salary for this month.

One or two taels of silver.

This figure sounds inconspicuous, but Zhao Ya knows that this income is considered a veritable high salary in the outer city of Dancing Elephant City.

You must know that nowadays a strong laborer works non-stop every day and earns only one tael of silver a month.

And if a family of three saves money on food and expenses, it will cost around eight or nine renminbi a month.

But now a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl with yellow flowers can be bought in the market for only a dozen taels of silver, and it is said that the price is still falling.

One can imagine how difficult this world is.

Zhao Ya put the money close to his body, and when he was thinking about what to buy later, Tan Dong's big face approached him.

"Hee hee, I just paid my salary, let's go drink some wine, my treat."

"I won't go." Zhao Ya flatly refused.

"Oh, why are you so shameless? Let me tell you, we brothers not only drink, but after drinking, let's take a shower first, then go to Goulan to listen to a few ditties, and then find a girl who looks right... Tsk tsk Just think about it!"

"Besides, based on your appearance, those girls might not want the money and just pay you back." Tan Dong lowered his voice and said with his eyes full of light.

Zhao Ya didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Didn't you just say that you will never go there again, and you want to practice martial arts?"

Tan Dong rubbed his hands and laughed, "Isn't this a monthly payment to celebrate? Don't worry, it's just this time, and I won't go again in the future."

Of course Zhao Ya would not believe these nonsense, he resolutely rejected Tan Dong's kind invitation, turned around and left the door.

After leaving the Escort, Zhao Ya first went to the rice market to buy rice, flour, grain, oil and other things.

Recently, food prices have remained high. It is said that the southern counties were hit by floods, so there is still a rising trend. Zhao Ya naturally needs to prepare early.

He bought half polished rice and half brown rice, and other supplies were matched in the same way.

Even so, Zhao Ya still spent six renminbi after buying enough for a month.

He bought air-dried bacon for the rest of the money except that he kept some for emergencies.

This stuff is a little more expensive than fresh meat, but it has no moisture and is solid in weight.

The key is that it is also very durable.

There is no refrigerator in this world, and food will rot if stored improperly.

Zhao Ya didn't want to get sick from eating unclean food.

With a bag full of supplies on his back, Zhao Ya walked home.

Zhao Ya was very vigilant along the way.

After all, the current world is becoming more and more chaotic, and many people are willing to take risks in order to survive, even daring to kill people in broad daylight.

This is still in the city, I heard that it is even more chaotic outside the city.

For this reason, Zhao Ya had to guard against it.

It may be because of Zhao Ya's tall body, or the clothes of the Changlong Escort that he was wearing, the journey was safe and sound.

Soon Zhao Ya returned home.

This is a dilapidated small courtyard, but compared with the crooked shacks around it that are about to collapse at any time, it is quite good.

Zhao Ya first looked at the mark he left before going out, and found that there was no change, so he opened the door.

There are only two houses in the small courtyard, one is Zhao Ya's bedroom, and the other is the kitchen and living room.

Zhao Ya put down his things first, and put away all the supplies that should be stored, then picked up the half bag of brown rice that he had prepared in advance, and went out.

Not far from the courtyard gate, there was an even more dilapidated courtyard, the walls of which were even tilted, as if they would collapse at any moment.

Zhao Ya knocked on the door, and a moment later heard a timid voice from inside.

"Who...who?"

"It's me." Zhao Ya replied softly.

There was a sound of unlocking the latch from inside the door, and then a small face the size of a palm appeared through the crack of the door.

It turned out to be a girl.

The girl looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old, and her figure was very slender due to malnutrition, but she could still see the natural delicacy in her eyebrows and eyes.

Seeing Zhao Ya standing in front of the door, the girl showed surprise.

"Brother Xiaoya, you are back."

Zhao Ya nodded, "Well, have all my clothes been washed?"

"Yeah, it's finished, come in and get it."

"No, I have something else to do, this is your reward."

Zhao Ya handed over the half bag of brown rice.

Tang Zui'er took the bag of rice, mist appeared in her big eyes.

"Brother Xiaoya, thank you..."

Zhao Ya smiled slightly, "You wash my clothes for me, and I will pay you. This is a matter of course, no need to thank you."

Tang Zui'er nodded vigorously, "Brother Xiaoya, wait a moment, I'll get you clothes."

After finishing speaking, Tang Zui'er turned around and entered the house with the rice bag in her hand, and ran out with a thick pile of clothes after a while.

"Well, here you are, Brother Xiaoya."

Zhao Ya took the clothes and turned to leave when he suddenly thought of something and couldn't help saying.

"By the way, I should still have clothes delivered in two days, and then I have to trouble you, sister Zui'er."

"No trouble, no trouble, as much as you want." Tang Zui'er said happily.

"Well, then you should lock the door. The ground is not flat during this time, so if you have nothing to do, don't come out as much as possible."

"Okay, I understand." Tang Zui'er nodded vigorously.

Zhao Ya left.

Tang Zui'er watched his back go away, and then closed the courtyard door again.

"Zi'er, who was that just now?"

An old voice came from the hall.

"Grandma, it's Brother Xiaoya, he came to pick up the washed clothes and even gave us half a bag of rice!" Tang Zui'er said happily.

"Oh, it's Xiaoya. It's really hard for this child to remember our grandma. If your father is still alive..." The old lady said with a choked voice.

"Grandma, don't talk about it. Your eyes are already blind from crying. I'll make rice porridge for you." Tang Zui'er hastily changed the subject.

Of course Zhao Ya didn't know this, at this time he had already returned home and was preparing today's dinner.

The little girl just now was named Tang Zui'er, and she was Zhao Ya's neighbor.

Speaking of which, this little girl was also a poor child, her mother died when she was just born, and her father went out to do business when she was young, and since then she has disappeared, leaving her alone with a blind old lady.

The reason why Zhao Ya helped this little girl was because Tang Zui'er's father had helped him when he was young, so he couldn't just stand by and watch the plight of the grandparent and grandson under the gratitude.

This half bag of brown rice is nothing to Zhao Ya now, but it can give great help to the grandparent and grandson.

Otherwise, in the current world, what awaits this little girl like Tang Zui'er will be a miserable situation darker than hell.

A pot of white rice, a plate of fried bacon with garlic sprouts.

Ordinary food, but Zhao Ya ate very sweet.

After a while, all the food will be eaten.

Zhao Ya belched contentedly, and after packing up the dishes, he stood in the yard and started the exercises he had to do for the past few days.

In the first pose, Zhao Ya first spread his arms, slowly raised them to the level of his shoulders, then suddenly raised his hands up, raised them above his head, and then thrust them into the sky.

It is the first form of the Eight Parts of Vajra Kung Fu, which is to insert the hands into the top and sharpen the triple burner.

These eight vajra skills were learned by Zhao Ya on the Internet. They have a very long history. It is said that they have been in their infancy in the Tang Dynasty, and they have become the health-preserving secrets of many Taoist schools in the Song Dynasty.

Baduanjin, which became popular in the world later, was born out of this eight parts of Vajra Kungfu.

At the beginning Zhao Ya learned this purely for fun, and he didn't think that this kind of slow movement like an old lady doing Tai Chi would be of much benefit.

But after traveling to this grotesque world, Zhao Ya decided to give it a try.

After all, how precious is the practice method in this world, just take the Five Tiger Fist that I have mastered now as an example.

This is an extremely superficial kung fu, but it is this kind of kung fu that can only be taught after joining the Changlong Escort and passing the probationary test.

Now after practicing for a few days, Zhao Ya didn't notice any changes except that he sleeps better and eats more.

But now that you have practiced, you have to keep going.

The second pose strengthens the kidneys and waist with hands, feet, front and back, the third pose requires one lift to regulate the spleen and skin, and the fourth pose has the left liver and right stomach like shooting eagles....

Eight movements, nine times for each movement, Zhao Ya did it extremely seriously.

Soon, sweat appeared on his body.

After the seventh movement, when the phoenix spread its wings, Zhao Ya's muscles began to tremble, and at the same time, he was sweating profusely, but Zhao Ya still gritted his teeth and persisted.

at last.

After finishing all the eight parts of the Vajra Kung Fu in nine nine eighty-one times, Zhao Ya raised his hands to the center of his eyebrows, then slowly lowered them, and the boiling blood slowly returned to the original place.

[Babu Vajra Skill proficiency plus 2]

[Stomach unlocking progress increases by 1%]

Zhao Ya was taken aback by the sudden appearance of two lines of prompts, and immediately opened the panel in ecstasy.

really.

I saw that there was an extra item in the column of my skills.

Eight Parts of Vajra Kungfu (2/100 for beginners).

At the same time, the remaining life column has also changed.

Remaining lifespan: 20 years (+10 days).

The key point is that the stomach area of ​​the human body contour map has also changed, and the brilliance seems to have become a little more blazing.

At the same time, Zhao Ya felt that his whole body's energy and blood became stronger.

Zhao Ya was overjoyed by these changes, and then he felt a strong sense of hunger.

It was as if the pot of food that I had just eaten had disappeared out of thin air.

Zhao Ya hurriedly made another pot of rice porridge, but after drinking several bowls in a row, the hunger still did not subside.

Zhao Ya's heart moved, he took out a piece of bacon, washed it briefly, cut it into large pieces, put it in rice porridge, heated it up, and then ate it.

as predicted.

After eating the meat, the strong hunger was finally satisfied, and the stomach that was waiting for food stopped protesting.

Under the wind and clouds, Zhao Ya was satisfied with a pot of rice porridge and a large piece of bacon.

Looking at the scene of the pots and bowls being cleaned up in front of him, Zhao Ya finally understood why his practice of the Babu Vajra Kungfu a few days ago had no effect.

It turned out that it lacked the support of meat essence.

You must know that in this world, eating meat is a very luxurious thing for ordinary people.

Many people are willing to cut some meat to eat only during the holidays.

This is really hard for Zhao Ya, who comes from a highly developed world, to accept.

So as soon as he received his salary, he bought a lot of bacon to satisfy his gluttony.

But he didn't expect to discover the secret of the system.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya was thoughtful.

I just ate at least two pieces of bacon, which was more than a catty, and only then did I unlock one percent of the progress.

If so, wouldn't he have to eat a lot of meat if he wanted to unlock his stomach [-]%?

But this is not unacceptable.

It's just that I can't support the salary I earn now.

But Zhao Ya immediately laughed.

With this golden finger, are you afraid that you won't be able to make money?

Not to mention anything else, as long as he unlocks his stomach and his blood is strong, his martial arts will naturally improve, and it is not a problem even to cross the Bone Refining Realm and become a master of Tendon Changing Realm.

At that time, a little meat is nothing.

What's more, after I increase the unlocking progress, even the remaining lifespan will increase accordingly, which means that as long as I keep improving, my lifespan will become longer and longer.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya's heart couldn't help getting hotter.
