Shen Lang returned to the dormitory, sat cross-legged on Bai Shishi's bed, placed his hands in a hand seal on his dantian, and looked like he was meditating, but he was recalling Yan Tianying's words in his heart.

"Do you take the overall situation into consideration? Unfortunately, Mr. Yan, the overall situation in your mind is the people of the East, but in the minds of some Yipin Zhenren, my interests are the overall situation..."

Despicability is the passport of the despicable, and nobility is the epitaph of the noble.

Throughout the ages, heroes have been written down in history and praised and remembered by future generations.

But villains steal profits and enjoy their gains, and even benefit their descendants for generations to come.

If there is no Yan Tianying in the Eastern Land, Bailong and others will only become more unscrupulous; if there is no God's Catching Hall, the wealthy families, nobles, nobles, and corrupt officials will only become more greedy and unbridled.

But the efforts of Yan Tianying and Shenquatang cannot actually stop the general trend.

When the ruling class only cares about their own interests and treats the people as pigs, dogs, cattle, sheep, and fresh leeks, the existence of Yan Tianying and Shen Cat Hall will become extremely annoying.

Just like Lian Yunxiao said, in the eyes of the royal nobles, noble families, and even most of the court officials, Shenhuatang has become "outdated" and needs to be eliminated.

If there is no Yan Tianying, even if the Shenqutang is not completely banned, it will gradually become a real "court eagle dog" that only serves the interests of the upper class.

"Tsk, I thought I was boarding an aircraft carrier. I could ride the wind and waves and crush everything. Now...well, an aircraft carrier is still an aircraft carrier, but there are several aircraft carriers of similar size surrounding it. There are also countless other aircraft carriers of unknown sizes.

The battleships all pointed their guns at us..."

Shen Lang sighed in his heart, feeling like he was on a "dangerous ship".

But somehow, instead of feeling any fear or worry about the future, there was an inexplicable agitation in my heart.

One cavalry can stop a thousand troops, but even if there are tens of thousands of people, I will go forward; when death is as strong as iron, I can mend the cracks in the sky with one hand.

This feeling of a tiger lying alone on a hill, surrounded by wolves, is really exciting!

only……

Shen Lang will not "take into account the overall situation" like Yan Tianying.

Yan Tianying is a calm and mature "hero" who carries heavy burdens, while Shen Lang is just a "rogue" with youthful energy and a happy heart.

A ranger may perform various heroic feats like a hero, but he will never learn from a hero and humiliate himself for the sake of the overall situation.

"But right now, I don't have the qualifications to act recklessly..."

Shen Lang took out a spiritual elixir refined from a thousand-year-old fish dragon tree and threw it into his mouth:

"It's better to practice honestly first."

The elixir enters the mouth and turns into a thread of warm current, flowing into the stomach, and then spreads out instantly, washing the internal organs, meridians and acupoints.

"It's so powerful! It's indeed a magical elixir that's very useful for the fourth level of true energy!"

Shen Lang sighed in admiration, turned his mind around, and tempered his internal strength.

He has not yet reached the fifth level of martial arts, and he still needs to continue to accumulate skills.

And with this bottle of elixir that Lian Yunxiao sacrificed his life to sponsor, Shen Lang felt that he was not far away from the fifth-grade Dacheng.

After meditating for a long time and thoroughly refining the effectiveness of the elixir, Shen Lang not only improved greatly in skill, but also in physical condition, and even recovered a lot from his injuries.

This elixir has a strong satiety effect. If you take one elixir into your stomach, you won’t need to eat for a whole day.

Therefore, Shen Lang did not eat lunch and continued to meditate and practice Taoism.

After practicing like this all day, Shen Lang was on duty at night. Zhu Baotou, who had been on duty at the Shenhua Hall for half a month, had a rare two days off and went home to spend time with his family.

Bai Shishi also stayed in the Yamen to practice all day today and didn't rest at night. She wore a serious police uniform and came to accompany Shen Lang on duty.

"I forgot to ask last night, did you practice sword skills again?"

"Yes, I have practiced a sword technique called 'Wind-breaking Wave Sword'. My martial arts have declined. When I am at a low level, it is more reliable to use weapons."

"Zhanfeng...wave-breaking knife?"

"Coincidence, purely coincidental! This sword technique is placed in the arsenal of Shenhuatang. It is one of the easiest sword techniques to practice. I used to specialize in claw skills and had no foundation in sword techniques. I saw that its mentality was rough and its moves were simple.

, it’s easy to do it quickly, that’s why I chose this sword technique!”

"Haha, I guess I'll believe you for once. But in terms of quick success, it's easier to do it with a musket."

"But a musket can hit you..."

"But by surprise, even a sixth-grade or even fifth-grade warrior can be knocked down with one shot."

Shen Lang took out two heavy-duty flintlock muskets that had accompanied him in battles for a long time, stroked the slightly rough barrels, and pushed the muskets and ammunition bags in front of Bai Shishi:

"I have used these two guns to kill many masters. Now they are no longer needed, so I will give them to you."

Bai Shishi originally didn't like using guns.

But since it was given by Shen Lang, she still happily took it, rubbed the handle of the gun that had been coiled shiny by Shen Lang with her slender jade fingers, and said with a smile:

"Then I won't be polite!"

"Do you know how to load and shoot?"

"Of course. I just don't like using guns, it's not like I don't know how to use them."

"You only have one day off tomorrow, right?"

"Well, we have to go on a mission again the day after tomorrow."

"Live well."

"I know. But the missions I participated in are all extremely dangerous missions. I don't know if I can come back alive after this trip. Then you have helped me so much and I haven't repaid you yet. How about I give you a try?

You want me after that? I have a pure and white body. Look at my waist, hips, and legs. They are white and delicate, soft and elastic, and very strong. I guarantee your satisfaction."

"How could you, a girl like you, say such shameless words as if nothing happened?"

"I'm telling the truth. Of course I speak the truth frankly."

"But do you know? Before going on a dangerous mission, the most important thing is to avoid fulfilling your wish. Once your wish is gone, without the care, something will happen easily. On the contrary, if you have care in your heart, you can often burst out with incredible strength at the critical moment to get through it.

crisis."

"But even if I give it to you, I will still be concerned in my heart..."

"But the concern will not be that strong. When encountering a seemingly unsurmountable crisis, I will think: Oh, my wish is gone anyway, why bother to work so hard? Just let it go."

"So what do you mean?"

"Let's talk about it after we get back from this trip."

"Definitely next time?"

"Well, I'll definitely do it next time."

The whole night passed smoothly while chatting with Bai Shishi, and no one came to report the news.

Early the next morning, a colleague came to take over. Shen Lang and Bai Shishi went to the dining hall to have breakfast and then returned to the dormitory to practice.

Bai Shishi was about to go on a mission, and Shen Lang gave her another elixir, and after supervising her taking it and refining it, he sent her back to the dormitory next door to continue practicing. He also took the elixir to practice, accumulated internal strength, and continued to practice Taoism after that.

.

In this way, after Bai Shishi's vacation ended, she once again went on a mission with several senior police officers. This time, led by Zhu Cat, they hunted down a folk cult that deceived people and made money.

According to clues, there is a powerful martial arts sect behind this cult, and behind that martial arts sect, there seems to be a shadow of a hereditary noble looming.

In short, this is another thorny and dangerous project. Whether it can be completed before the end of the year and return to Beijing for the New Year is unknown.

After Bai Shishi left, Shen Lang continued to stay in the Yamen to practice and recuperate.

It took another five days before the injury was completely healed, and his skill also improved by leaps and bounds, and he could now shoot a distance of seven feet through the air.

In terms of Taoism, three fifth-level spells: Vajra Indestructible Body, Prajna Palm, and the Forgetting Mantra have all been completed.

As for the sixth-level spells, the three extra spell slots after upgrading, due to lack of time, have only been cultivated into the "Spider Summons" transmitted by Little Spider for the time being, and there are still two empty slots.

After seeing Zhong Yuanzhi use "Thunder Palm" to easily defeat the twin sisters in the early stage of the fourth level, and then use "Thunder Hands" to intercept four flesh puppets with the strength of the fourth level, Shen Lang, a seventh-level magician, had no idea about these two spells.

I was quite satisfied with the spell, so I gritted my teeth and used the Earth Lotus Stone Milk to quickly complete it.

After that, he used a drop of Earth Lotus Stone Milk to permanently solidify the eighth-grade spell "Power of the Subdued Tiger", and his power increased dramatically.

Coupled with various enhancements, as well as the increased strength after practicing the "Eight Directions Earth Movement Kung Fu", I feel that now I don't need to use my internal strength, but I can also be like Chen Yuniang, using her body as a gun stand, carrying a cannon on her shoulder, firing it, and even swinging the barrel of the cannon.

When the iron rod works.

The reason why there is no permanent defensive spell this time is, firstly, because there are no eighth-grade defensive spells that are particularly cost-effective, and secondly, because Shen Lang’s current armor is already insanely stacked:

The third-level skin enhancement, the upcoming bone enhancement, the second-level vitality enhancement, the iron cloth shirts on both sides of the weapon, the golden bell, the indestructible vajra body. There are also the sixth-level "Flowing Clouds Return to Ruins Technique", and the ones that have not yet been

The "Steel Steel Bone Technique" and "Rock Iron Wall Technique" practiced.

Finally, there is the "White Dragon Armor" sponsored by Lian Yunxiao. Although he dare not wear it openly, how can he care so much in a crisis?

Anyway, Shen Lang felt that even if the quality of the "White Dragon Armor" had declined, when all the armors were stacked together, in terms of armor strength alone, he might not be inferior to Lian Yunxiao.

After this quick process, Shen Lang's consumption of Earth Lotus Stone Milk has also reached the upper limit, and he will no longer be able to use this treasure to quickly obtain third-level spells.

But the remaining Earth Lotus Stone Milk is not gone.

It can be brought to the market to trade cultivation resources, or it can be used as an auxiliary medicine for alchemy to improve the effectiveness of the elixir. The effect is still very great.

The New Year is approaching, and the capital is already a bustling scene.
