Approaching the state of transformation and becoming the state of transformation are two completely different concepts.
Hu Lai thought that Zhuo Mufeng would need at least several months of hard work before he could take that step. Unexpectedly, he still underestimated the opponent by far.
Could it be that this double-faced man is really a unique martial arts prodigy? How unfair is God!
"Stop him!"
In a hurry, the cloth bag on Hu Lai's shoulder was not wrapped properly, and the silver and jade items inside were exposed. The leader of the fifth village did not care about Zhuo Mufeng and quickly ordered everyone to intercept it.
Hu Lai didn't want to be surrounded, so he turned around and ran away.
Xiang Guang looked at the cloth bag that was quickly moving away from his sight, his eyes were red, he fell to the ground and stretched out his hand towards the distance.
"You make a living by robbing others, and your evil deeds are notorious. You didn't expect retribution to fall on you."
Zhuo Mufeng slowly walked forward and sighed softly.
The bandits all around were chasing Hu Lai. In their eyes, the seriously injured and dying boss had no value, at least far less than the silver.
"I, Zhuo Mufeng, have been honest all my life. I hate being taken advantage of most. Tell me how much money you have in total. I will catch up with the thief to prevent him from hiding it."
Xiang Guang said: "Silver plus jade jewelry, there are about one hundred taels." He thought to himself, it is only eighty taels at most. I hope you and the thief will die together.
"Okay, Master Xiang, feel free to go."
"Well……"
"I'm sorry, I stabbed it wrong. The heart is on the left side of the chest."
Zhuo Mufeng was a little regretful. He wanted to use Xiang Guang's martial arts skills, but judging from the way the other party spoke, he probably wouldn't give in, so he had to send him back to the west.
Zhuo Mufeng took his time and searched other rooms in the village, but these bandits advocated instant gratification and had almost no private money.
The robbers who were seriously injured in bed were frightened to death when they saw Zhuo Mufeng.
Zhuo Mufeng was not polite, using the prisoner's dilemma to interrogate one by one, killing all those who killed innocent people indiscriminately with one sword, and giving a lesson to those who made small troubles.
He was lucky enough to learn two one-star martial arts from the injured man with small eyes.
In the end, only a dozen of the hundreds of robbers survived, and all of them thanked Zhuo Mufeng profusely and called Zhuo Shaoxia wise and heroic.
After gaining a wave of reputation, Zhuo Mufeng walked away.
About half an hour later, he arrived at the place he had made an appointment with Hu Lai. Hu Lai had been waiting there for a long time, and he opened his mouth and said: "This poor place in Shihou Village only has thirty taels of silver. According to the agreement, you, seven and I
three."
Zhuo Mufeng looked at the other party with a smile.
"Why, Boss Zhuo thinks it's too little? The conscience of heaven and earth really only has thirty taels, that's all. If you suffer a little more, you and I will be two. I, Lao Hu, also took a big risk and was almost hacked to death just now..."
After that, he pointed to the place where the clothes were torn, which was actually torn out by himself.
Zhuo Mufeng smiled: "I asked Xiang Guang, and he said there were two hundred taels in total. I also checked with other people in the village. There are not two hundred taels. One hundred and fifty taels is the minimum. Even one hundred and fifty taels.
Come on, I’m eight and you’re two.”
Hu Lai was stunned, thinking to himself that he had searched too little, and shouted: "Impossible, there are only eighty taels at most... No, you misunderstood..."
What greeted him was a heavy beating.
Hu Lai wanted to run, but found that he couldn't muster the strength.
Zhuo Mufeng sneered secretly, using boiling hemp grass to deal with many people at the same time is not enough, but dealing with a vajra warrior is just trivial.
After some coercion, Hu Lai had tears in his eyes and had to hand over the silver and jade obediently. He secretly swore that this kid was too treacherous and he must stay away from him in the future.
With this money, the Mozhu Gang's future expenditure problem was finally solved.
Zhuo Mufeng was in a good mood, and his consciousness entered the third level of power and power, and found that the power pillar value had increased by 500 points.
"It seems that if the two-star martial arts reaches the realm of transformation, the martial pillar value will increase by 300 points."
Remembering that Shadowless Knuckle has also touched the Transformation Realm, as well as other one-star martial arts, the level of entry can only be high but not low. It seems that there is no need to worry about the recent martial arts pillar value.
Zhuo Mufeng didn't think about waiting to buy star-rated medicinal materials and then consume the Martial Pillar Points. Strength is the foundation, and waiting in vain will only make him miss more opportunities.
Anyway, if you have star-rated medicinal materials in the future, you can just refine them again.
Therefore, on the way, Zhuo Mufeng would sometimes secretly avoid Hu Lai and take out the transformed ordinary medicinal materials to temper the bones. Hu Lai didn't care either. Every time this guy visited a city, he would go to a brothel to have fun.
The two of them walked extremely slowly, and it was already half a month later when they arrived at Gusu City.
At this time, Zhuo Mufeng had surprisingly tempered seventeen trunk bones, and his strength had improved slightly compared to before.
As expected of the capital city of Yingtian Prefecture, Gusu City's city wall alone is ten feet high. It is made of gray bricks stacked on top of each other, with tight joints that cannot be penetrated by a knife.
There are also some pavilions and pavilions in the city with cornices and corners, which are higher than the city wall.
Under the setting sun, against the jade belt river glowing with sparkling golden light outside the city, just the scene in front of you can make people feel the prosperity and enchantment rushing towards them.
They queued up to enter the city and walked on the bluestone street that was dozens of feet wide. The bustling shops on both sides, the gentlemen and ladies who walked by from time to time, and the noise mixed with Wu Nong's soft words all made Zhuo Mufeng feel a lot.
impact.
Compared with Gusu City, whether it is the urban appearance or the pedestrian style, Hongri City can only be regarded as a small village, and the difference cannot be measured.
Warriors armed with swords walked by in twos and threes on the street. Some of them obviously had grudges, but they resisted and did not take action.
Seeing the confusion on Zhuo Mufeng's face, Hu Lai smiled and said, "The officials in Gusu City are not easy to mess with. Do you know Ai Shuangfei?"
Zhuo Mufeng was shocked: "You mean, Ai Shuangfei, who is ranked 87th on the list of heroes and is known as the Silent Hundred Killer?"
"Yes, that's him. This man failed in his youth, but since he went to Dainichi Island and learned Wave Gong from Master Hatano, he became famous in one battle and is now a well-known figure in Suzhou City.
Two years ago, he opened a martial arts gym, but was reported as being involved in the pimp business, and was imprisoned by the government for half a year before he was released. Even Ai Shuangfei was like this, how could other Jianghu people dare to make trouble in the city?"
Zhuo Mufeng nodded, this was actually a good thing. With the foundation of him and the Mozhu Gang, if they acted as randomly as in Red Sun City, they would probably be killed in a few days.
On the street ahead, Shang Zirong saw Zhuo Mufeng and his two men, and his worry turned to joy. He immediately jumped up and called him senior brother affectionately.
It seemed that she was quite worried about herself. Even her round face had lost some weight. Zhuo Mufeng felt warm in her heart and asked casually: "Has the yard been booked?"
To establish a gang, you must first have your own territory. You can't just rent an inn and just say this is a certain gang.
Shang Zirong pouted: "House prices in Gusu City are too high. Every square meter costs one tael of silver. For a 100-square-meter yard, the down payment is not even enough. I am worried to death. Senior brother, please think of a way."
Zhuo Mufeng was secretly speechless and startled.
If I hadn't done justice for God and received some extra rewards, I wouldn't have been able to afford the accommodation expenses for this trip.
