Zhao Zheng got up early as usual, opened the window, and looked up at the white snow under the morning light. The white snow reflected the sunlight and was so bright that it was dazzling. The sky and the earth were bright white, and coupled with the cold weather, it seemed lonely and lonely.
It was light and airy. The scenery was really beautiful, but Zhao Zheng had no intention of admiring it.
He is worried now, and the things he is worried about are things that make others happy - it is a good thing for others that the snow has stopped, but it is a big bad thing for him.
When the snow stops, people can leave.
Although there is thick white snow on the road, it is not so bad that it is impossible to walk. If your shoes get wet, you can still walk. And Qibao County is not far away. It is half a day's journey by horseback. If you are on the snow
If you walk on foot, you can get there in about a day, so it's not too far.
The people staying in Hongchen Inn are all passers-by, and they all have important things to do. Some are doing business, some are visiting relatives and friends, and some are going to the city for medical treatment. Everyone has enough reasons to leave the warm little place of Hongchen Inn.
Place, plunged into the endless vastness, cannot be retained by staying.
In the game, this heavy snowfall is the time limit for completing the task of stealing secrets. If the task is overdue, the task will fail.
Such a big snowstorm is very rare for Qingmu Mansion. It only happens every few years. After this snowstorm, there will be no more heavy snowstorms, and the actor with a thousand faces will not come again.
Will that woman leave today?
Will there be any other black cat-hating guests arriving today?
For Zhao Zheng, these are the two most troublesome problems at present, and the headaches are so severe that he doesn't want to think about them anymore.
"No matter what, practice first, and then follow the plan after practicing." Zhao Zheng closed the window to block out the biting cold wind, then closed his eyes and opened the copy of Kongming Quiet Room and entered it.
He is very familiar with every scene and thing in this dungeon. Among the many dungeons, he has stayed in this dungeon for the longest time. Even if he closes his eyes now, he can still imagine what this room looks like. He leaves
Arriving in the middle of the familiar field, he squatted down with his legs bent, stretched his arms forward, and then slowly retracted them, hanging on both sides of his body. His whole body was as still as a mountain, and the surging internal force was gestating in the silence.
Following the special breathing method, his abdomen was like a bellows, his Dantian became faintly warm, and an internal force traveled through the acupuncture points, moving steadily and slowly.
After running for several weeks, his physical strength was exhausted. He took a short rest and took a small pill to replenish the lost internal energy. When he was almost recovered, he started working hard again.
During his cultivation, he has become accustomed to this kind of cultivation pace, almost as familiar as eating and drinking.
Twenty-four hours passed quickly, and he exited the dungeon, then re-entered and continued practicing.
After spending dozens of hours like this, something abnormal suddenly appeared in his cultivation. The internal energy in his body heated up like boiling water, and the momentum suddenly surged. Dragons roared in the slender and mysterious meridians. He first said
Surprise, then turned to great joy, this must be a sign that the bottleneck is about to be broken!
Instead of suppressing the galloping internal energy, he began to add fuel to the flames, speeding up the movement of the internal energy. The internal energy seemed to be out of control, and the speed increased steadily. He also drew out the remaining internal energy in his Dantian and pushed it to the top. He
The blood in the body began to surge, and the skin became red and hot. Large drops of sweat seeped out, gathered at the top of the head, dripped from the chin, and wet the front of the clothes.
Success was already far away, and he began to further stimulate his internal energy. The meridians began to hurt because they were hit for the first time. The blood flow rate was too high, causing the blood vessels to bulge, like the roots of a thousand-year-old tree.
He endured all kinds of discomfort and struggled to hold on.
At this critical moment, the internal energy that was running like flying gradually showed signs of exhaustion, dissipating in the meridians, and it was no longer as strong as before.
Zhao Zheng knew very well that if he failed to seize the opportunity to break through this level, he would have to wait for a long time next time. He gritted his teeth, maintained the speed of internal force, jumped away from the place with his legs, and fell several times.
At the wall, he picked up the supply bag, took out the small returning pill inside, and poured it into his mouth.
The power of the medicine spread quickly, curbing the loss of internal energy and prolonging the time of this breakthrough.
Zhao Zheng continued to use his internal energy. After more than ten minutes, his internal energy was completely exhausted and his Dantian became silent. However, the blood all over his body was still running rapidly and was abnormally hot.
[Tip: After practicing hard, the host has reached a new martial arts realm of "opening the orifices and activating blood circulation", and will receive 2500 points for this. 】
The system prompt popped up in his mind, and the fonts of dragons and phoenixes announced the great news. The last time he advanced to the second level, he unlocked a new level of dungeon, but not this time. It seems that he needs to reach a higher level to unlock it.
A more advanced copy of Xin et al.
Zhao Zheng worked hard for many days, and finally reached the third heaven realm as he wished. In addition to the significant improvement in external and internal strength, he also gained the ability to freely control the blood flow rate. This is the powerful method of the third heaven warrior. He was satisfied
He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up straight from where he was, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. After he finished the exercise, the blood flow in his body quickly calmed down, and his complexion turned from rosy to normal.
He rested for a moment, opened his own data, and checked the specific growth in various aspects of his body. With this promotion, his external strength increased by 2, internal strength increased by 4, and light strength also increased by 2, which is quite impressive. Below the data,
A new "Special Ability" content has been added, followed by the ability "Blood Qi Rushing Crown", which refers to controlling the blood flow rate.
His strength recovered slightly, but he couldn't stand it anymore, so he experimented with the ability of his blood to rush to the crown. He stirred up his own blood a little, and the blood flow rate naturally increased, and his skin immediately began to heat up. Since blood has no relationship with internal force, there is no need to use internal force to defecate.
can use this ability.
He maintained this state and punched forward. There was a muffled sound as the fist broke through the air. The fist paused in mid-air, and invisible power spread in the air. The fist paused steadily for half a second, and then turned into a claw.
, grabbing several times in mid-air, it is the exquisite skill of the little grappler, each movement is connected smoothly and follows the rules.
With the blessing of Blood Qi Rushing Crown, the power and speed of this move have been significantly improved.
With Zhao Zheng's current strength, let alone hitting one gold rush, even if he fights one against two and hits two gold rushes, it is more than enough and effortless. He has already crossed the gap between the second and third heavens.
Chasm, high above the Second Heaven, left the Second Heaven warriors behind.
The joy of promotion slightly diluted the disappointment of not being able to uncover the actor with a thousand faces, making Zhao Zheng's mood improve a lot.
Although there was still one chance to enter the dungeon, Zhao Zheng was unwilling to use it anymore. He exhausted the time limit of the dungeon, escaped from the dungeon, and returned to the cold and windy real world.
It is already morning now. Presumably, in the near future, new guests will arrive in the inn, and at the same time, some old guests will leave.
Zhao was about to test the new guests, and at the same time, he wanted to observe the guests' movements after they left, especially to pay more attention to the woman. He went downstairs with the black cat in his arms, sat not far from the brazier, and looked at the flames in a trance.
.
Sure enough, two more guests came today, but neither of them responded to the black cat, so there was no suspicion.
In the morning, guests who were in a hurry began to leave one after another, including the suspected hunter and the puppeteer who told everyone anecdotes about the rivers and lakes. Most of these people were heading north, because Qibao County is in the north.
Only a few people went south.
Zhao Zheng watched these people leave one after another, feeling more and more restless, hoping in his heart that the woman would not leave, so that he could test whether the woman was an actor with a thousand faces at night.
This woman is the least suspicious of the several suspects, but now that the other suspects have been eliminated, she is the only one who remains a suspect. If she is not an actor with a thousand faces, then all the clues have been lost.
"Does it mean that I have to miss out on the Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing?" Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but sigh sadly.
At this moment, there was a burst of slow footsteps upstairs.
Zhao Zheng raised his head and looked over, really thinking that Cao Cao and Cao Cao had arrived. The person who came downstairs was the woman.
The woman held a large luggage on her elbow and held the swaddling clothes to protect the baby in her arms. Her steps were slow and gentle, yet still feminine. Unfortunately, her appearance and figure were inferior, and she was not able to impress a man.
The woman. When she accidentally caught a glimpse of Zhao Zheng holding the black cat, her thin eyebrows could not help but frown, showing obvious disgust.
Zhao Zheng noticed this detail, narrowed his eyes slightly, and gently stroked Xiao Hei's head with his hand.
The woman walked downstairs, ignored the others, and went straight out of the house. She was a woman, and it was not easy for others to talk to her. Only the waiter in the shop shouted, wishing her a safe journey and a speedy recovery for her child. It turned out that the woman had already paid for the room.
Money, it's time to leave.
Zhao Zheng's heart sank, and he had an unpleasant feeling that everything was lost. He immediately chased him out of the house, stopped in the cold wind, and looked at the woman's leaving figure.
The woman walked towards the south, leaving a series of deep footprints on the snow. Her back looked extremely lonely, with only the child in her arms and the cold wind accompanying her.
south?
How come it goes south?
Isn't Qibao County in the north?
The child in the woman's arms was sick. Why didn't she go to a nearby county for treatment instead of going to the south?
Zhao Zheng's eyes shone brightly, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his heart like thunder. He caught this major flaw in the woman's body and determined that this woman must be a fraud!
But the question is, so what if it’s a scam?
Even if this woman is really an actor in disguise, how can Zhao Zheng be her opponent in the wilderness?
Although Zhao Zheng has been promoted to a third-level heavenly warrior, there is still a huge gap between him and a fourth-level heavenly warrior. If he fights with no advantage, he has absolutely no chance of winning.
Since he is no match for the Thousand Faces Actor, he can only ask others to help.
In this small inn, there was only one person he could truly trust and trust with his life.
He came to the door of a boudoir in Hongchen Inn, knocked on the door, and spoke with the person in the room in a low voice and with unusual solemnity.
"Sister, I want to ask you to help me kill someone!"
