Chapter 18 The stomach is successfully unlocked and talents are obtained (please collect and read)
The stall owner remained silent.
Tan Dong sighed and whispered to Zhao Ya beside him.
"Some time ago, dried earthworm meat was only sold for two and a half taels of silver. Now it has risen to three taels of silver. But there is no way. It is the seller who has the final say on such good products."
Then Tan Dong took out a crumpled banknote.
"I usually save this with my pocket money. I originally planned to have a drink with the courtesan, but I will lend it to you now."
The banknote is twenty taels, which is already a large amount for ordinary people.
Zhao Ya felt warm in his heart, knowing that this should be Tan Dong's entire property.
"No need, I brought a lot of money this time."
As he said this, Zhao Ya took out a banknote and handed it to the stall owner.
"I want as much as I can buy!"
The stall owner took the banknote, checked it carefully, and then spoke after confirming it was correct.
"Okay, one hundred taels of treasure money should buy thirty-three taels of dried meat. Since you are so happy, I will give you two more taels."
The stall owner weighed the dried meat, packed it and handed it to Zhao Ya.
After Zhao Ya took the heavy bag of dried meat, he felt keenly that there were several more eyes watching him secretly.
He whispered to the stunned Tan Dong: "Let's go."
After leaving the ghost market, Zhao Ya and Tan Dong walked around in the cobweb-like alleys a few times before shaking off their tails.
At this time, Tan Dong had also understood, and the look he looked at Zhao Ya became quite meaningful.
"Just ask whatever you want to ask." Zhao Ya said as he walked.
"The Black Snake Gang last night..."
"I killed him." Zhao Ya agreed simply.
Anyway, Tan Dong will know about this kind of thing sooner or later, so he might as well get straight to the point.
"Hiss!" Tan Dong gasped.
"Just after I leave?"
"yes!"
Tan Dongchong extended his thumb to Zhao Ya.
"sharp!"
This compliment came from Tan Dong’s heart.
He completely wiped out the gangs running rampant in the countryside overnight, and then went to work at the escort agency like no one else the next day.
With such forbearance and calmness, Tan Dong thought that even if he flattered him, he couldn't keep up.
"But you just told me this matter so simply. Aren't you afraid that I would talk nonsense outside?"
Zhao Ya smiled, "Who would believe it? Besides, even if someone believes it, who would stand up for a group of low-level scum?"
Tan Dong nodded, "That's true."
Zhao Ya patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, don't look at me like I'm some kind of murderous demon king."
"There are only two reasons why I killed the Black Snake Gang. One is that they really deserve to die, and the other is that I happen to be short of money."
Tan Dong looked at Zhao Ya with suspicion, thinking that the second reason might be the real reason.
But this matter has nothing to do with Tan Dong. Tan Dong is even full of envy of Zhao Ya.
Killing a whole family for just one reason, is this the beauty of Bone Refining?
so envious.
Tan Dong did not go home.
In his words, since Zhao Ya didn't need the private money he had worked so hard to save, he had to enjoy it tonight.
He was going to Goulan to meet the recently popular courtesan to have tea and talk about the weather.
Of course, Zhao Ya had nothing to do with this kind of thing. He just advised Tan Dong to do what he could and put his health first, and then went back.
After arriving home, Tang Zui'er stayed at the table and fell asleep, holding a pair of scissors to defend himself.
When she saw Zhao Ya returning, she first breathed a sigh of relief and then said happily.
"Brother Xiaoya, you are back. The rice is still hot in the pot. Should you eat it now or wait until after practice?"
After these days of getting along, Tang Zui'er knew that Zhao Ya had to practice every night, and after finishing the practice, he had to have a midnight snack.
Looking at Tang Zui'er who looked sleepy, Zhao Ya smiled.
"No need, save these meals for tomorrow morning. Go to bed quickly."
"oh!"
Tang Zui'er didn't ask any further questions and obediently went back to his room to sleep.
Zhao Ya first put away the package containing the dried earthworm meat, then took out one and put it in his mouth.
Soon a stream of heat rose up from his intestines and stomach, and the qi and blood all over his body began to boil slightly.
Zhao Ya let out a sigh of relief. In so many days, except for the meal at the escort agency at noon, this was the first time that Zhao Ya felt full at home.
Taking advantage of this state of blood boiling, Zhao Ya came to the courtyard and started practicing.
as expected.
After completing a set of eight Vajra skills, a familiar prompt finally appeared.
[Add 3 to the proficiency of the Eight Parts of Vajra Skills]
[Stomach unlocking progress increased by 1%]
But at this time, Zhao Ya felt his stomach became empty again.
He took out the earthworm meat strips and put them in his mouth, and then began to practice the Five Tiger Fist and the Gale Sword Technique.
After half an hour of this, Zhao Ya had finished all his homework.
At this time, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, but Zhao Ya didn't feel sleepy at all.
He took out the secret book of Qing Gong from the deerskin bag and stood in the courtyard to read it carefully and ponder it.
From time to time, I would put down the book in my hand and make some gestures in the courtyard.
In the following days, Zhao Ya went to work at the escort agency to practice martial arts during the day, and continued to practice after returning home at night.
The days passed quickly, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Zhao Ya stood in the courtyard practicing the eight steps of Vajra Kung Fu.
It can be seen that this set of health-preserving skills has been practiced by Zhao Ya to the point of perfection. Every movement is done with ease and there are hidden secrets.
Finally, when the last movement is finished.
Zhao Ya felt a surge of warmth surge up within his body, causing the tendons attached to his bones to tremble slightly and become much stronger.
This is a sign that Yi Jin is about to be completed.
At this time, Zhao Ya's attributes also underwent earth-shaking changes.
Name: Zhao Ya. Age: 16 years old. Remaining life: 38 years
Skills: Eight-step Vajra Kung Fu (23/2000 for mastery), Five Tiger Fist (11/2000 for mastery), Wild Wind Sword Technique (13/1000 for small success), Flying on Grass (145/500 for entering the palace)
But the biggest change is the unlocking progress.
[Stomach unlocking progress: 100%]
[Stomach unlocked successfully, obtained talent: Mizutani Jingwei]
Looking at the human body outline page again, the fog in the stomach area has completely disappeared and been replaced by a warm glow.
Zhao Ya took out the last dried earthworm and swallowed it.
The next second he could clearly feel his stomach crushing and decomposing the earthworm meat, and then absorbing all the essence in it.
The whole process took only a few seconds, and then Zhao Ya felt that the energy and blood in his body had become stronger again, and he couldn't help but be moved by it.
I didn't expect that the newly obtained [Shuigu Jingwei] talent was so powerful.
It only takes a few seconds to completely digest a piece of dried earthworm meat that is rich in blood. The key is that this digestion is extremely efficient and there is no waste.
Doesn't this mean that as long as he has more and more powerful meat, his blood energy will grow faster and faster?
Zhao Ya's eyes couldn't help but become hot.
According to this progress, it won't take long for me to successfully change my tendons and become a second-level master.
You must know that only three months have passed since Zhao Ya completed his bone refining.
If this speed spread, it would probably shock a large number of people.
Except for those martial arts wizards who are born with martial arts, I have never heard of anyone who can cross two realms in such a short period of time.
At this moment, the outline of the human body suddenly changed again, and a subtle brilliance appeared at the position of the heart.
[Heart unlocking is on, current progress: 0%]
