The one who pronounced the sentence on behalf of the county magistrate was Master Liu, and the one who carried the cane was Wang Long, the leader of the Wu squad room.
Wubanfang also represents the government. The impact of fighting in the street is extremely bad, and it is likely to frustrate the prestige that the county magistrate has worked hard to build over the past two years. Therefore, Wang Long, who carries out the responsibilities of the staff, is not merciless in his actions.
"Bang!"
The hardwood stick as thick as an arm cut through the air and hit Shen Zhui's buttocks, making a dull sound.
Just this time, Shen Zhui felt like his whole body was about to fall apart. He was suddenly sweating profusely and his face turned red.
Wang Long, who had always looked gentle and honest, now had a cold face and swung the second stick without hesitation.
"Bang!"
Shen Zhui's throat involuntarily let out a slight groan, but he gritted his teeth and pressed his tongue to prevent the sound from coming out.
"Bang!"
When the third stick came, the energy and blood in the whole body boiled and moved around. It was clearly slapped on the buttocks, but it felt painful everywhere in the body.
"Bang!"
The fourth stick is used to resist the energy of repairing wounds being dispersed.
On the fifth stick, the skin was torn and the flesh was torn, and traces of blood flowed out.
On the sixth stroke, Shen Zhui started to roll his eyes in pain.
The seventh stick, the eighth stick...
By the time the ten sticks were beaten, Shen Zhui was already dying. He felt as if his soul had left his body. He was so weak that even breathing was painful.
This stick will never knock someone unconscious. Whenever it reaches the limit, a soft spiritual energy will come from the stick, stimulating the soul and making people's consciousness clearer.
Shen Zhui did not utter a single scream from beginning to end, but the people in the martial arts squad room who were watching the execution felt even more awe-inspiring in their hearts.
It's not so much that Shen Zhui could bear it, but it's more that after a few blows, he no longer had the strength to scream.
Shen Zhui Shigun was already in such a miserable state, what kind of pain should the people behind him be in?
All the government officials couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts. They thought that they would never touch the law in the future to avoid the pain of this rod.
"Shen Zhui, thank you, get over to the class leader..." Shen Zhui's lips moved slightly when he was helped up.
Wang Lung's ten sticks looked fierce and merciless.
But in fact, each stick was accompanied by a stream of spiritual energy that entered his body and moved around, helping him clear up his meridians and completely eliminating the sequelae of receiving the spiritual energy essence before.
Of course, the heart-breaking physical pain was really endured.
As for Wang Long's punishment and reward, what is the deep meaning in it... Shen Zhui had no intention of guessing at this time.
"Push on! Next one!" Wang Long coldly greeted everyone around.
"yes."
The two people on the left and right supported Shen Zhui and sent him to the cell for detention.
Shen Zhui was in a daze and seemed to hear Yang Wu's screams coming from behind.
………………
In the jail cell of the county government prison.
"Suosuo~"
Shen Zhui turned around and listened to the sound of the cell door being unlocked.
The heavy iron door opened, revealing Zhao Hu's dark face.
"Brother Hu, have you brought the things?" Shen asked.
"I've brought it. I've brought the food for you as well." Zhao Hu handed two boxes, one large and one small, to Shen Zhui.
"Thank you, Brother Tiger."
"Well, you feel better very quickly. It's only the seventh day and you can get out of bed and move around." Zhao Hu looked at Shen Zhui up and down and marveled.
Shen Zhui smiled slightly: "Thanks to Brother Hu for taking care of me, I sent you a good ointment. It will naturally heal quickly."
Speaking of which, on the first day after entering the cell, Shen Zhui couldn't even move. He could only lie down, apply medicine, and had to be helped to eat and drink.
If Zhao Hu hadn't come to visit him for several days in a row, he probably wouldn't have been able to recover so quickly.
"It's just a little effort. In the final analysis, the county magistrate and Wang Bantou agreed. If it were Yang Wu and others, without such treatment, they can only lie down. No one is looking after them, and they have to eat, drink and relieve themselves. It's miserable. Yes. However, he deserves it!"
Shen Zhui said seriously: "I don't dare to forget the kindness of the county magistrate and Team Leader Wang. Brother Hu, you also don't dare to forget the kindness of changing dressings and providing water!"
"Haha, Brother Shen, you are so polite to Brother Hu!" Zhao Hu smiled cheerfully, obviously very satisfied with Shen Zhui's statement.
"Okay, recover well and I won't disturb you anymore. Although you are being detained and punished, I have greeted everyone in the prison. They are all my brothers. No one dares to treat you harshly."
"Brother Tiger, walk slowly."
………………
After finishing the food in the big box quickly, Shen Zhui opened the small box carefully.
"Big Return Pill." Shen Zhui narrowed his eyes and stroked the porcelain bottle.
He had used one of the ten Great Return Pills in order to heal his wounds during the previous battle with Liu Bin.
Over the past month, in order to cooperate with the practice of the exercises, I have eaten four more pills one after another.
There are still five Great Return Pills left, which is the guarantee for him to break through to the ninth level of the day after tomorrow.
Without the Great Return Pill and just relying on hard training, Shen Zhui would have had to practice for two or three years just to reach this last level.
"I wonder if this Great Return Pill can help me open up the ninth acupoint and achieve meridian circulation."
Shen Zhui didn't know for sure. According to common sense, the Great Return Pill... was effective even for innate warriors.
Five Great Return Pills should be more than enough to break through the ninth level of the day after tomorrow.
But he was practicing the "Blood Burning" technique. Every time he broke through a small realm, two more vitality essences were added, and the accumulation required was greater. And the closer he was to the innate realm, the harder it was to break through.
In the previous month, he had taken five Dahuan Dan, but he was not completely sure of overcoming the bottleneck.
It was a blessing in disguise this time. With the help of the four spiritual energy essences of the old man named Cang, I broke through the bottleneck of the ninth level, and now I have some confidence to break the mirror.
"At the eighth level of acquired skills, even if you have great body skills and ruler skills, you still won't be able to compete with an innate warrior."
Shen Zhui recalled the previous scene when he faced the old man surnamed Cang. With just one move, his ruler skills were broken.
The opponent didn't show any subtle moves from beginning to end. He just rushed over with his own speed and punched away his iron ruler.
The gap in strength, defense, speed, etc. is too big, and there is no room for Shen Zhui to use it. This is absolute strength.
"let's start."
After moving for a while, Shen Zhui sat down cross-legged, poured out a large Huan Dan, and swallowed it in his belly.
The vitality of the limbs and bones gradually gathered together, rushing towards the ninth acupoint in a mighty manner.
This ninth acupoint is the Lingtai acupoint! It is also the most difficult link among all acquired warriors!
"If the vitality is the firing needle, the meridians are the channels, and the acupuncture points are the stubborn rocks blocking them, the key nodes."
"The acquired nine levels, each level corresponds to an acupuncture point, and each level up is the process of breaking through stubborn rocks and opening up channels."
"But no matter how perfect the technique is, it cannot completely discharge the stubborn rocks and silt from the passage. There will always be a small part that slowly accumulates back, making each subsequent level more difficult."
"Until the last acupuncture point, the accumulated meridian 'silt' will turn into a boulder. Breaking through it will be several times more difficult than before! This is why the older you are, the harder it is to break through, because your body changes over time. As time passes, it will gradually absorb more foreign impurities, forming meridian sludge."
Shen Zhui recalled the explanation of the "Burning Blood" technique in his mind and started the first attack.
"Boom~"
There was a vague roar in his mind, like waves hitting a boulder, and he felt the organs and bones in his body vibrate.
The impact failed and the energy returned.
But Shen Zhui was not discouraged, which was expected.
The "Blood Burning" technique is more difficult to break through than ordinary techniques, so he has been mentally prepared for it.
He regrouped, gathered his energy again, and charged towards the boulder stuck in the meridian channel.
"Boom boom boom~"
Time and time again, no matter how long it took, when Shen Zhui found that the vitality in his body was gradually weakening, he paused for a moment.
"The second great return pill!"
After taking another Dahuan Dan, his energy gradually filled up, and Shen Zhui started to attack again.
"The third one!"
fail!
"Come again!"
fail!
After taking four Dahuan Dan continuously, the ninth acupuncture point in the body still did not loosen. Shen Zhui was a little discouraged.
"Is it so difficult? In the past month, I have taken five Dahuan Dan. In addition to these four pills, I was also shocked once with the essence of innate spiritual energy. The stubborn stones should have been reduced a lot, but they are still there. Can’t break through?”
"I don't believe it! The fifth one!"
Shen Zhui took the last Great Return Pill, and at the same time, using the essence of sixteen vitality energies as the vanguard, the torrent of vitality rushed towards the stubborn stone!
There was a faint feeling of swelling and pain in his body, and Shen Zhui felt that this was the most confident time for him. If it still didn't work, he would really have to find another way!
"Boom boom boom, click~"
finally
The stone barrier, which had been reduced to its limit, had a gap opened!
The ninth acupoint has finally been opened! The torrent of vitality flows slowly through, expanding the meridians and nourishing the body.
"It's finally done!" Shen Zhui smiled.
It's like a river embankment. Once a gap breaks out, everything will be smooth sailing.
Of course, if this gap cannot be opened, the feeling before will be that it is hopelessly solid.
Now that I have a breakthrough, my experience is completely different.
"The ninth level of acquired nature is one step closer to the innate realm." Shen Zhui felt his strength slowly increase and his body became stronger, and he was also sighing.
"The realm has been broken through. Next, it's time to think about the body and ruler skills. First, let's see how much good deeds I have accumulated."
With a thought in his mind, data appeared in front of Shen Zhui's eyes:
Shen Zhui: The ninth level of the day after tomorrow
Kung Fu: Burning Blood (Third Level)
Ruler method: Iron Ruler Nine Levels (Dacheng)
Body Technique: Flowing Cloud Step (Dacheng)
Good deeds: 38500
"Huh? It's actually close to forty thousand? Doesn't this mean that I can redeem nearly forty seconds of enlightenment time?"
