"Well, the ninth-level warrior the day after tomorrow is indeed better than the little thieves locked up." Shen Zhui thought to himself.

Judgment is based on the system's good deeds, good deeds = martial artist level

For example, for the fifth level of acquired warrior, the base number is 1.5.

Year, month, and day correspond to multiples of hundred, ten, and one respectively.

If you need to be imprisoned for 10 years, then multiply 1.5 by 1,000 to get 1,500 good deeds.

Of course, this Zhou Dynasty did not serve more than ten years in prison.

If ten years in prison is not enough, they will all be executed, but there will be differences in how they are executed.

After three years of exploration, the judgment of the punishment system is roughly similar to the laws of the Zhou Dynasty.

Only in terms of the standard of ‘execution’, the system needs to be more rigorous.

For example, one time Shen Zhui and Zhao Hu executed a beheading order, and Zhao Hu beheaded a key criminal.

However, the system made a 'sin value' determination at that time and believed that this person should not be executed and only needed to be imprisoned for twenty years.

That time, Shen Zhui just cooperated and did not take action.

At the same time, no good deeds were obtained afterwards.

In terms of the 'execution' standard, the system's judgment is closer to the world where Shen Zhui lived in his previous life. Shen Zhui also agreed with this point.

Of course, in terms of execution standards, there were very few situations where the laws of the Zhou Dynasty were inconsistent with the system.

And in the few times he reached the system's kill standard, Shen Zhui also figured out a pattern:

If the criteria for execution are met, the system will calculate the sentence based on the remaining lifespan of the deceased prisoner.

"Liu Bin is a ninth-level acquired warrior, with a base number of 1.9."

"A warrior the day after tomorrow has a lifespan of a hundred years. According to the information given by the county government, Liu Bin is nearly sixty years old. The system gave him 7,600 points of good deeds and a 4,000-fold multiplication... which means that in the end the system determined that Liu Bin's remaining life was still alive. Forty years?”

"It seems that if you want to accumulate good deeds, you still need to find those felons whose crimes are so heinous that they need to be executed directly. Moreover, it is best to have a higher level, the better."

He previously arrested Yang Cheng, who was in the sixth level of Houtian, and was only sentenced to one year, with only 160 good deeds.

Now kill Liu Bin and get 7600 good deeds. This rate of accumulation of good deeds is completely different.

Of course, the difficulty is not at the same level.

To catch Yang Cheng, Shen Zhui spent almost no effort, but to kill Liu Bin, he almost lost his life.

Now I have to rest for more than half a month.

Sighing softly, he realized that the strong smell of medicine was coming from the furnace. Shen Zhui stopped thinking about it and concentrated on boiling the medicinal ingredients that he bought for dozens of taels of silver.

Fortunately, it is common for the county government to get injured while handling cases, so he is very familiar with how to prepare various prescriptions.

After the medicinal soup was boiled and he drank a large bowl, Shen Zhui felt a trace of heat in his body, his face became rosy, and the emptiness in his body finally eased a little.

"Dong dong dong!"

Just when Shen Zhui was about to drink the second bowl of medicinal soup, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard.

When he opened the courtyard door, he saw a clerk who often followed Mr. Liu.

The clerk was holding a wooden box in his arms. When he opened the door and saw Shen Zhui, he explained his intention.

"Captain Shen, I'm here to deliver something on the order of the chief clerk."

Shen Zhui quickly bowed his hands before taking the box.

"May I ask, sir, what is in this?"

The clerk smiled and said: "I'll just give it to you. As for what it is, I'll find out later when Shen Captou opens it and takes a look. This is a reward from the county magistrate. The chief clerk knows that you need to rest, so I will definitely deliver it to you. I think it should be It’s related to this matter.”

"Shen Zhui thanked the county magistrate and the chief registrar. I'd be very sorry to trouble you to go there in person, and please come in and take a rest."

"Captain Shen is too polite. Chief Liu said that Capt. Shen will just rest at home and decide when to return home. I still need to go back to resume my life, so I won't disturb Capt. Shen and take my leave."

"Sir, walk slowly."

…………

"The county magistrate gave me something?" After sending the visitor away, Shen Zhui returned to the room and put the square box on the table.

"Let's see what it is." Opening the box, there was a blue silk cushion inside, with two white porcelain bottles sealed with soft stoppers placed across the cushion.

A faint fragrance came, and Shen Zhui suddenly felt refreshed.

"This scent is..." Shen Zhui was stunned and quickly opened one of the bottles.

"The Great Return Pill? It's actually the Great Return Pill!"

Shen Zhui was a little excited. These two bottles actually contained ten large pills!

"This, the county honors me well..." Shen Zhui couldn't help but sigh.

In this world, one tael of silver can support the lower household for two months, and the expenses of the middle household for one month are only ten taels of silver.

And the market value of this Great Returning Pill is five hundred taels!

Five hundred taels is enough to buy a nice house in the county!

Ten big return pills, worth five thousand taels!

Given Shen Zhui's current ninth-level arrest, his salary of fifty taels per month, even if he adds in the rewards he received for handling the case, he would have to save for nearly ten years even if he didn't eat or drink!

"I was given a Great Return Pill when I was promoted earlier, and now I'm given ten more..." For some reason, Shen Zhui felt that the reward was a little heavy in his hand.

He is not a fool, there is never a free lunch in this world.

In Shen Zhui's heart, the county government, the county magistrate, and him were just the relationship between the company, the boss, and the employees.

As for the previous exceptional promotion, Shen Zhui also felt that it was because his performance was worthy of the reward.

So now, with this tenfold reward coming down... in this world, the meaning is actually very obvious.

"This is life money..." Shen Zhui muttered to himself.

Regardless of whether the county official thought so intentionally or not, when this reward fell into Shen Zhui's hands, Shen Zhui should have had this realization.

Shen Zhui pondered for a while and made a decision in his heart.

"Now even without this reward, in the eyes of outsiders, I am still regarded as a respected person in the county."

"The county magistrate represents the orthodoxy of the government, follows the laws and regulations, and is an official in a good manner. He has been in office for two years, and he has been able to attack the wealthy clans. He is a rare good official."

"I am a small commoner, and I am promoted and valued by the county magistrate. This is the kindness of knowing someone."

"What's more, for whom is it not selling? If I don't work for the county magistrate, why should I rely on the Li and Yang families?"

"Furthermore, as long as I have this awareness, I don't necessarily need to do anything to endanger my life for the county. As long as I have enough strength to protect myself and show greater potential... even if something big happens, Yes, in this contest between the county magistrate and the wealthy family, I will not be the kind of pawn that can be discarded casually."

"The better I am, the more resources I get, and my safety is more guaranteed."

"On the contrary, if I'm like Yang Wu, or I take refuge in the Li Yang family, then it will be a real danger if the situation changes."

After thinking about this, Shen Zhui happily opened the cork of the bottle, poured out a round, light green pill, and swallowed it happily.

The power of the medicine spreads in the body, and a majestic vitality travels along the meridians and acupuncture points, gently repairing the meridians and replenishing the previously lost vitality.

The Dahuan Dan is not a healing elixir, it is just a vitality tonic, but it just makes up for the lack of vitality in Shen Zhui's body due to injuries.

A Great Returning Pill had previously helped Shen Zhui break through the eighth acupuncture point and successfully reach the eighth level of the day after tomorrow.

Now it is just used for recovery, and the effect is naturally more outstanding.

"Boo~"

There was a slight sound in the body, and an essence of vitality was formed instantly.

Then the speed increased and a series of sounds appeared.

"Boobobobo~"

By the time Shen Zhui opened his eyes, fourteen vitality essences had been restored in his body.

It only takes two or three days of rest to fully return to the peak state of the Sixteen Paths.

"In this period of gain and loss, the third level of the Burning Blood Technique has become more refined. As expected, the warrior can only achieve a breakthrough in the battle between life and death."

"Right now, my body skills are still a little far away from the Dacheng state, but I am not in a hurry to continue taking on the ninth-level cases the day after tomorrow. I will first use my understanding time to practice my body skills to the Dacheng state!"

After getting out of bed, Shen Zhui opened the door.

"The system will exchange half of the good deeds into 'enlightenment' time."

"3800 good deeds can be redeemed for 38 seconds of enlightenment time. Would you like to redeem it immediately?"

"yes."

"The exchange is successful! The 38-second countdown to enlightenment begins, 37, 36,..."

Shen Zhui walked into the courtyard and began to practice the "Flowing Cloud Step" technique.

At the moment when the countdown to enlightenment time began, Shen Zhui suddenly recalled the battle with Liu Bin in front of his eyes.

"Death!" An illusory figure seemed to appear in his eyes. The figure was exactly the same as Liu Bin. He struck directly at Shen Zhui's head with a knife.

Shen Zhui stepped lightly, took a step sideways, and slashed across Shen Zhui's chest with the short knife, slashing into the empty space.

"Kill, kill, kill!" The illusory figure Liu Bin wildly drew his sword.

But Shen Zhui was unarmed and moved wildly, constantly 'dodging' Liu Bin's attacks.

"Swish, swish, swish~"

In a few breaths, Shen Zhui moved around and dodged Liu Bin's thirty-four blows.

Shen Zhui was immersed in this imaginary enemy. He kept repeating his evasive actions, and Liu Yunbu became more and more proficient in his movements.

"Seeing and understanding is the basis for enlightenment."

I discovered my own shortcomings again and again and quickly made corrections based on previous scenes.

Shen Zhui's movement skills gradually took on a natural flavor.

Liu Bin's blows were faster than the other blows, and after a while, Shen Zhui had dodged more than twenty blows!

"Buzz~"

There was a slight shock gradually in Shen Zhui's mind.

There was a mistake in dodging!

On the twenty-ninth knife, Shen Bin's short knife slashed across Shen Zhui's ribs.

Shen Zhui suddenly realized something and continued to dodge.

But then, the thirty-second knife slashed his left arm again!

Shen Zhui's consciousness began to become a little chaotic, and a trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Shuashua~"

Fifty-sixth knife! Shen Zhui bent down and the blade of the knife passed through the tip of his nose!

Sixty-sixth knife! Liu Bin raised his short sword back, and the light of the sword passed over Shen Zhui's face.

Seventy-eight knives! The short knife hanging under his arm was suddenly raised!

The eighty-third knife...

The ninety-fifth knife...

…………

"ah!"

Shen Zhui woke up with a start!

Liu Bin's hundredth sword 'directly chopped off' his head!

"Three, two, one, this time of enlightenment is over."

The countdown is over.

There was nothing in front of Shen Zhui, no Liu Bin, and no one injured.

Everything just now was just his imagination in a state of enlightenment. But the sweat stains on his body cannot be faked.

"I used Liu Bin's battle as an imaginary battle. I couldn't dodge any moves, and I survived a hundred moves. Among them, only sixty-eight swords were completely evaded. There is still a gap between the seventy-five swords of Dacheng Realm. "

Shen Zhui frowned, carefully recalling the movement drill he had just performed during his enlightenment time.

"We're still a little short of reaching the realm of Dacheng. What's the problem..." Shen Zhui muttered to himself.

"Especially the hundredth blow that Liu Bin made with all his might. That last blow was impossible to dodge. If you didn't resist, you would be dead. I'm afraid even with the Dacheng realm movement technique, it would be difficult to say that you could completely dodge it."

After all, the 38-second experience of realizing time still failed to make his body skills break through.

In fact, it's not that Shen Zhui doesn't want to exchange his good deeds for more powerful 'enlightenment' time.

But he only has 7,600 good deeds. If converted into 'enlightenment' time, the experience lasts only seven and a half seconds, which is not enough at all.

"I thought I was only one step away from the Dacheng Realm, and there was no need to accumulate good deeds to redeem the time for enlightenment. Now that I think about it, this Dacheng Realm body method is far more difficult to break through than I thought."

Shen Zhui shook his head, but he was not discouraged.

"The system will continue to convert the remaining good deeds into 38 seconds of enlightenment time."

"The exchange is successful, the 38-second countdown to enlightenment begins, 37.36.35..."

Time passed by minute by second. This time, Shen Zhui remained motionless.

Instead, he closed his eyes and carefully recalled the thirty-two knives he had just been 'hit' by.

When the countdown ended, Shen Zhui opened his eyes.

"The body technique takes the waist as the axis and requires the coordinated expression of various muscle groups in the waist, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and back. The general applications of each practitioner are different. The main ones include telescopic opening and closing, flashing and pitching, twisting and turning, and collision and squeezing. Just wait.”

"I already understand why I couldn't dodge two of the knives. It was a problem of insufficient strength in the waist and abdomen... If I try it again, I will definitely be able to dodge..."

Shen Zhui smiled.

Although all 7,600 good deeds were used up, he still failed to achieve the ultimate level of movement.

He was only five swords away from being able to dodge seventy-five swords in the Dacheng realm.

This means that his body evasion success rate has improved slightly.

"It's good if it improves. Other warriors, even if they practice for three to five years, may not be able to practice for an hour under my enlightenment time... I'm afraid that during this 'enlightenment' time, I won't make any progress, then It’s miserable.”

Understanding time is not omnipotent. You have to have some accumulation yourself.

Just like a warrior who has never learned sword skills or even knows what sword skills are, it is useless even if he is given one day to realize it. Because there is no enlightenment.

Or maybe he is a fool with a brain problem, and there is no enlightenment.

When it comes to understanding, first of all, there must be accumulation, and secondly, one must have a certain amount of understanding.

Of course, like the level of 'enlightenment' time, Shen Zhui probably has some effect on breaking through to the realm of Dacheng. If he wants to break through to the realm of 'consummation' in the future.

Then I’m afraid the effect of ‘enlightenment’ time will not be so obvious.
