Chapter 38 Chu Liang comes to visit
"Ah sneeze——"
Chu Liang suddenly sneezed.
"Is anyone thinking about me?"
Chu Liang rubbed his nose, stopped practicing martial arts, and sat on the stone bench to rest.
In the yard, three little demon dogs were playing and running around, as if they had endless energy.
Two treasure-hunting mice went to the mountains and tried their best to find various mountain treasures for Chu Liang.
The donkey, with its ears drooped, squatted in the corner of the yard and grazed quietly.
"This kind of life is quite pleasant."
Chu Liang drank a few sips of warm water, stood up after a while, and continued to practice martial arts.
With the nourishing blood pills as medicinal supplements and the monster meat as dietary supplements, his strength has grown much faster than before.
By that night, his second stream of energy and blood had almost condensed!
At this rate...
In less than half a month, he can completely condense the second stream of energy and blood!
At night, Chu Liang picked up a piece of monster meat and took a big bite.
"Why is this demon elephant meat so bad? It's worse than bear paws." Chu Liang shook his head, feeling like he was chewing wood residue.
After dinner, he rested for a while and then continued to practice martial arts and hone his energy and blood.
The days passed like this.
Seven days flew by.
That evening, Chu Liang's second energy and blood condensed to 50%, and his strength became stronger.
During this time, there were more and more rumors about him in the village.
Many people say that he signed the slave contract and became a domestic slave of the Hu family, so he can live safely until now.
"If he hadn't signed it, Master Hu would have taken action against him long ago."
"But since A Liang is already a slave of the Hu family, why is he still living in his own yard? Logically speaking, he should move to the Hu family's compound."
This is something that many villagers cannot understand.
After much deliberation, they could only think that Mr. Hu was kind-hearted and allowed Chu Liang to live in his own home.
Even they themselves find this idea ridiculous.
"Master Hu is really so kind-hearted?"
"Perhaps he really wants to train A-Liang? Then A-Liang will be prosperous in the future!"
"yes……"
For a time, many villagers began to envy Chu Liang.
Of course, Chu Liang didn't care about all the rumors outside and focused on practicing martial arts.
When it was time to go to the market, he set up his donkey cart and went to the county town again to buy monster meat.
This time he didn't buy much, only two hundred catties.
During this period, stall owner Wu Dafu talked about the Tsing Yi Gang.
"I don't know who is so bold as to attack Mrs. Nineteen of the Tsing Yi Gang." He said to Chu Liang: "You have to be careful. The Tsing Yi Gang has gone crazy recently. You must not be fooled by those crazy dogs. Doubtful."
"I know." Chu Liang nodded.
"Before, those mad dogs even wanted to enter the black market for inspection, but the gatekeeper of the market refused to let them go. There was a conflict between the two parties, and finally the owner of the market was provoked."
"Is the Tsing Yi Gang so brave?"
"Yes, the leader of the Tsing Yi Gang is a master of the five qi and blood after all, and behind him is the county government office. There is a strong man in the skin refining realm in the county government office..."
The stall owner Wu Dafu said a lot, allowing Chu Liang to further understand the situation in the county.
There are only four experts in the Skin Refining Realm in the entire county.
One from the black market, one from the Wumeng League, one from the county government, and one who is the helmsman of the "Qin Chamber of Commerce", the largest chamber of commerce in the county.
These four people are like four divine needles that calm the sea, calming down the chaos in the entire county government.
"Oh, skin refining realm, I really don't know if I can break through to this realm in this life." Wu Dafu sighed with melancholy on his face.
"Take your time, you are not short of money. Martial arts training is a matter of time and effort, so there is no need to rush."
Chu Liang communicated with him for a while, and then walked around the black market. He didn't find anything he wanted to buy, so he drove away in a donkey cart.
He didn't waste time in the county town today.
It's only two o'clock in the afternoon, which is when many people leave the county.
This time the road back to the village was very peaceful, without any obstacles, and the journey went smoothly.
"Xu..."
The donkey looked up to the sky and brayed, running fast with all four hooves dancing.
It had been evolved into a half-demon by Chu Liang, and its physical strength was far superior to the other donkeys. It didn't stop much along the way.
Before evening, the village appeared in front of Chu Liang.
When the donkey cart entered the village entrance, Chu Liang saw an acquaintance.
Zhao Hu.
He was taking a group of younger brothers down the mountain.
All of them were empty-handed, and it seemed that they had not caught any prey today.
"A Liang?"
Zhao Hu's eyes stayed on the donkey cart for a moment, then moved to Chu Liang, and asked: "Ah Liang, did you really sign the slave contract?"
"What do you think?" Chu Liang asked back.
"Didn't sign?"
"Um."
Chu Liang nodded slightly and drove the donkey cart towards his courtyard without stopping.
Zhao Hu and others stopped at the entrance of the village and looked at his back.
"Brother Hu, Ah Liang is lying to you. He must have signed it!" A younger brother said, "If he hadn't signed it, would he be able to live well until now?"
"Alian probably couldn't live with it because of his reputation, so he said he didn't sign it."
"From a free body to a slave, tsk... I would feel embarrassed if it were me, let alone A Liang..."
Several younger brothers spoke one after another, thinking that Chu Liang had signed it.
Only Chu Qiang remained silent. He silently stared at Chu Liang's retreating figure with a somewhat complicated mood.
Zhao Hu pondered for a moment, and then said: "A Liang said he didn't sign, then he really didn't sign!"
"But if he doesn't sign, Mr. Hu's side..."
"Don't worry so much, don't guess what Mr. Hu is thinking!"
Zhao Hu shook his head slightly, made a silent gesture, and signaled his younger brothers to keep their mouths shut.
Just wait, and one day you will get the result.
In fact, not only they don't understand, even the Hu family doesn't understand.
"Why doesn't the master take action?"
Butler Hu has been a little depressed these days.
He went to find his second uncle and learned that Chu Liang had torn up the slave contract.
After learning the news, he immediately ran back to the Hu family and reported the news to Master Hu.
He thought Master Hu would be furious, but Master Hu just said indifferently: "Oh, then wait a few more days and let that kid think about it."
What to think?
Will that kid take the initiative to come to the door and beg for mercy?
These days, Butler Hu has more and more doubts in his stomach.
Seven days later, an astonishing news suddenly spread to Qingshi Village, causing a panic in the village.
"What, the monster has come down the mountain again?"
"Yes, it's still that tiger monster, this time it attacked Huangshi Village!"
Monster!
When the villagers heard this word, they couldn't help but feel a shudder from the depths of their souls.
It represents killing and death, and it has almost become a taboo. The villagers dare not discuss it on weekdays.
More than ten days ago, the monster attacked Moshi Village and killed more than 20 people. Even the warrior master of Moshi Village was defeated and fled.
At that time, the villagers in other villages around were scared.
But the next day, the county sent people to each village to appease, saying that the tiger monster had been found by the warrior masters and would be killed soon, which made the villagers feel at ease.
"Why is it here again?"
"Didn't they say that many warrior masters in the county went to catch the monster? So many days have passed, why haven't they caught it yet?"
"I heard that those warrior masters didn't find the tiger monster at all, and didn't even see its shadow!"
More news came, making the villagers more anxious.
This time more people died than last time.
More than 30 people died in Huangshi Village, even the carpenter who made the coffin died!
The warrior master in the village was also defeated and fled with serious injuries. He fell into a coma as soon as he fled to the county town and has not woken up yet.
"The warrior master is not his opponent, what can we do?"
In the hearts of the villagers in each village, the warrior master is an invincible existence.
That tiger monster is even stronger than invincible!
At this time, a rumor suddenly spread in Qingshi Village.
"I heard that Master Hu in our village is more powerful than the masters of several other villages around."
"Really?"
"Really, our Master Hu has been recognized by the Wumeng in the county town, and the other masters have not been recognized..."
The villagers have a vague concept of the Wumeng, and they only know that there are many warrior masters in the Wumeng.
This is the first time they have heard that only those who are recognized by the Wumeng are considered real warrior masters, and the rest are fake.
This new news made the villagers of Qingshi Village feel a lot more at ease.
Fortunately, there is Master Hu!
"Master Hu is definitely more powerful than the tiger monster!"
"Yes, with Master Hu here, maybe the tiger monster won't dare to come to our village at all!"
The villagers all said so.
Although they were unsure, they still used an affirmative tone to increase their confidence.
...
At night, the moon was high in the sky.
The night wind was blowing gently.
The silver moonlight fell on the backyard of the Hu family mansion.
At this moment, Master Hu, who was invincible in the eyes of the villagers, was facing the biggest crisis of his life.
He looked nervous, his whole body was tense, and he stared at a figure in front of him.
The figure had his back to him and looked up at the moon, as if he was appreciating the moonlight, and did not show any hostility to him.
But Master Hu felt a chill on his back, sweat on his forehead, and felt great pressure.
He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth to spit out two words: "Chu Liang?"
"It's me."
The man turned around with a calm expression, and it was Chu Liang.
Tonight, he successfully condensed the second stream of blood and qi, and his blood and qi surged in his body, greatly increasing his strength. He wanted to find someone to practice with.
In this Qingshi Village, only Master Hu could give him practice.
"Chu Liang, what do you want to do?" Master Hu shouted in a low voice.
"Aren't you dissatisfied with me?" Chu Liang asked back, "So I came to you and planned to talk to you."
"I am satisfied with you, you can go."
"I won't go."
"You..."
