As Wei He walked, he was still reminiscing about the whole pound of silver-kissed black snake meat in his stomach.
He could clearly feel that his body had the same warmth as when he ate the money insect meat, and compared to the money insect meat, the silver-nosed black snake meat was obviously much stronger.
He was actually a little tempted by Senior Brother Cheng's recruitment, but Cheng Shaojiu was the only one recruiting him now, and there was no comparison, so he was temporarily undecided.
After returning, according to what Cheng Shaojiu said, it is estimated that other people will come to the door one by one soon.
At that time, it is not too late to make a decision after comparison.
Wei He rushed back all the way. The Cheng family lived in Shiqiao Town, which was in the same town as Huishanquan, but he lived in another town, and they needed to pass through a Sangui zone in the middle.
As they walked along, Wei He glanced at the somewhat desolate streets around him.
It wasn't dark yet, so there were no people on the street. It was deserted, except for the barking of dogs coming from the yards of wealthy families in the distance.
Passing by an alley, he vaguely saw two beggars huddled together for warmth, huddled in a corner motionless, and he didn't know if they were dead.
Immediately afterwards, two men in rags, pushing two carts, slowly turned out of an alley on the right.
Wei He paused and waited for them to pass in front of him.
On the cart they were pushing, two blue-faced corpses were lying crooked, a mother and a daughter, one big and one small. They looked similar, they were both skinny and skinny, and they had no human shape. It was obvious at a glance that they had died of starvation.
Wei He waited for the cart to go far before continuing forward.
He was now wearing a Huishanquan Taoist uniform, his hair was shaved into a square inch, he was 1.8 meters tall and had strong muscles.
Especially after breaking through the qi and blood, his eyes are piercing and bright, and you can tell at a glance that he is a person who practices martial arts regularly, which is quite intimidating.
Occasionally, passers-by also lowered their heads and did not dare to look at him.
Wei He continued to move forward, stepping on the cracked stone road under his feet and remained silent.
From time to time, as I pass through the streets and corners, I can always see some incense sticks stuck in the soil.
The incense head has long been burned, and there are still some blood stains on the ground in front of it. Some are more, some are less.
I don't know if it's human blood.
Wei He couldn't help but quicken his pace. Feiye City, except for its popularity before noon, was like a ghost the rest of the time.
During the day, there were occasional patrols by officials, but at night, they just paid no attention to anything.
Wei He walked a little further home, and saw the Mouse Alley in front of his house from a distance. I don't know when there were two more gangster-like men there, huddled furtively at the entrance of the alley.
Seeing him approaching, the two gangsters lowered their heads and hurried away to the side.
Wei He was speechless and killed one Chen Biao, as well as a second and third Chen Biao.
This world, seriously...
Sighing in his heart, he walked through Mouse Lane and returned to his door.
Not long after I entered and sat down, there was a knock on the door.
Wei He stood up and opened the door. Outside was a middle-aged man with a pockmarked face wearing a black mandarin jacket.
"But Brother Wei Hewei? My name is Liu Yu, and I'm from the Three Tigers Gang."
When Wei He heard this, he knew he was here to attract people.
He invited people in, sat down, and asked about the price. Since it was easier to make money based on strength, he could accept joining any force.
It's just that the Sanhu Gang is a new gang that has just emerged in the neighborhood. After questioning, it turns out that they are in the brothel business, and their prices are a little higher than that of Senior Brother Cheng, and they don't have the crucial silver-kissed black snake meat.
Wei He also declined.
After Liu Yu left, people from the Changfeng Escort Bureau came soon. This Changfeng Escort Bureau was also a large escort agency that could often be seen in stores nearby. The price they offered was not as good as the Sanhu Gang, and they were also declined.
Then the Zhang family, a wealthy family nearby, invited him to be the leader of the nursing home. The price was good, a little higher than that of the Cheng family, but it lacked the silver-nosed black snake meat. After careful calculation, Wei He still refused.
Immediately afterwards, two more gangs came, one from a wealthy family and one from a restaurant, both of which came to ask him to serve as a small leader or something like that.
After comparing them one by one, Wei He felt that the price offered to him by Senior Brother Cheng was not low, and if the silver-kissed black snake meat could be supplied in unlimited quantities, it might be tempting to others.
But it was a huge temptation for him.
Because he has the Breakthrough Bead, his digestion ability is stronger than that of ordinary people. No matter how difficult it is to digest, he can quickly digest it, convert it into calories and energy, and store it into the Breakthrough Bead.
For ordinary people in the Cheng family, it is not a loss to let him come after eating a pound of silver-nosed black snake meat that will last for two days.
Wei He was confident that he could make his money back with just this meat.
It is estimated that Senior Brother Cheng's family dares to supply silver-nosed black snake meat in an unlimited amount mainly because this meat is very resistant to hunger. Even if ordinary people practice martial arts, they can't eat much with an open stomach.
But they would never have imagined that there was someone like Wei He in this world.
Having made up his mind, Wei Hetian got up early the next morning before dawn, fetched water, washed up, and then hurried towards the Huishanquan courtyard.
When he arrived at the yard, he was not the first one, and someone had already started to polish the skin.
It's just that yesterday, the news that he broke through the entry level at the last moment and entered the cowhide level seems to have spread throughout the world.
The newcomers who just started looking at him mostly looked at him with awe.
The junior brothers who didn't look at him much in the past also obviously took him more seriously.
Wei He walked to his seat, took off his coat and was getting ready to exercise.
The strong woman in charge of cleaning took the initiative to bring him a cup of hot water and smiled warmly at him.
Not far away, the second sister Wei Ying also looked at him several times with a smile, obviously in a good mood.
This feeling is completely different from the previous feeling. It's like being in the direct line of sight of many people all at once.
"How's it going? What were you thinking about yesterday?" Cheng Shaojiu patted Wei He's shoulder from behind.
"I've thought about it, your price is the best, but I have to continue practicing martial arts myself, so I can't help for a long time," Wei He said.
"Of course, we will notify you in advance if something happens. As long as you can arrive quickly when needed, you are usually free." Cheng Shaojiu smiled and nodded.
"Okay. I agree." Wei He replied affirmatively.
"Okay! You are my brother, don't worry, I will never treat you badly." He said seriously.
Wei He is also very happy. As long as he has enough silver-kissed black snake meat, he can significantly shorten the accumulation time of breaking through the beads.
Cheng Shaojiu talked to him for a while, feeling happy. After a while, he returned to his seat and started practicing.
Wei He noticed that this third senior brother, who had a wide network of friends, started talking to the small circle of Xiao Ran, Jiang Su, and Jiang Yan at some point.
It seems that he has integrated into that small circle at some point.
Since Jiang Su came to the courtyard, a small circle with her as the core has naturally formed.
There are very few people she can look up to, among them are Xiao Ran, who is extremely talented, Jiang Yan, who comes from a wealthy family, and now there is Cheng Shaojiu.
When these four people got together, they became a small new circle.
At this time, these people were chatting quietly.
"Speaking of which, this time my uncle came back from Zaiye and brought a piece of marble iron, a specialty there.
If you are interested, you can come to my place and have a look. It just so happens that we discussed the joint training without gaps last time. How about we set a schedule for this time?"
The one who spoke was surprisingly Jiang Yan, who rarely spoke in the courtyard.
This person has a gentle complexion and soft eyebrows, giving him a plain feeling that is neither abrupt nor sharp.
No one would have thought that he came from one of the families in the inner city of Feiye City.
The "no gap" he mentioned was, firstly, to train everyone's ability to guard against sneak attacks and flying stones, and secondly, as a core disciple of Huishan Fist Master Zheng, he was able to take on more cost-effective missions uniquely.
The Jiang family comes from the inner city
The inner city and the outer city are two completely different areas.
This is also the key reason why Jiang Su views Jiang Yan in a different light.
"If there is no gap, I have no objection. But I want to bring a junior sister with me, is that okay?" Jiang Su was the first to reply. She never misses this kind of thing, especially opportunities that can enhance her own strength.
"Of course it's okay." Jiang Yan nodded.
"I don't have any objection either." Xiao Ran's face was cold, but his eyes unconsciously drifted towards Jiang Su.
It was obvious that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.
He paused, suddenly remembered something, and said: "In addition, I also need to take someone with me."
"Yes." Jiang Yan nodded and smiled.
Cheng Shaojiu was now very close, and his eyes were ready to move. Looking at Jiang Su beside him, he made no secret of his admiration.
"Last time you said there would be no gap, I have no objection."
He paused and then continued: "I will take Junior Brother Wei with me."
He pointed at Wei He, who was not far away, and said, "This brother of mine is a man of great character and has a resolute temperament. He will definitely make great achievements in the future."
Jiang Yan glanced at Wei He and recognized him as the man who had just been stuck in the last few days to break through. He frowned slightly.
The people they lead are all juniors and juniors who have already broken through or easily broken through the cowhide level.
Although Wei He also meets the standards, his potential seems a bit too low.
Not everyone is eligible to attend Jiang Yan's private meeting.
People like Wei He and his like, who have insufficient qualifications, may become the heads of various nursing homes in a short time. In the future, they will be in the same class as them.
"Brother Cheng, why don't you replace him with someone else?" Jiang Yan said.
"What? Didn't I say last time that as long as you get started, you are qualified?" Cheng Shaojiu was stunned.
"That's true. It's just that the threshold for our small circle is a bit low." Jiang Yan said dissatisfied.
Cheng Shaojiu immediately understood that he felt that Wei He's qualifications were too poor and he was dissatisfied.
He glanced at Jiang Su and Xiao Ran. Neither of them expressed anything, and they obviously thought it should be so.
"We all saw Wei He's last-minute breakthrough. Although it seemed inspiring at the time, if he wants to enter our circle, I think he still needs to test a few things." Jiang Yan said seriously.
"Not bad." Jiang Su nodded in agreement.
She agreed, and Xiao Ran had no objection.
Cheng Shaojiu was startled for a moment, then smiled.
"Then, how to test it?"
"It's very simple." Jiang Yan smiled slightly, "I have a fierce dog at home. If he can defeat my fierce dog with his bare hands, he will have passed the test."
Cheng Shaojiu was speechless. He tried to argue a few words, but unfortunately Jiang Yan and others had the same position and were unmoved.
In desperation, he had to find Wei He who was practicing offense and defense in the corner.
