East of the city.
Bluestone Alley.
This was the address he got from Big Tiger.
"Young Master, we're here."
Zhou Fu got off the carriage and looked at the gray and shabby door. He frowned.
The door wasn't closed. Was there someone living inside?
Zhou Fu came to the door and looked inside through the crack. The small yard was in full view.
"What's going on? Why does it look like we've been robbed?"
The yard was in a mess. All kinds of things were thrown everywhere.
He carefully opened the door and walked in.
This was a yard. Facing the door, there were three rooms side by side. This was the main room.
On the right side of the main room, there were two small rooms. They looked like a kitchen and a woodshed.
At this time, the doors of the five rooms were open. There were a lot of things scattered in front of each room.
"Damn, I didn't come here for nothing, right?"
The scene in the yard made Zhou Fu's mood a little heavy. His mood, which was not very sunny, was once again covered with a layer of haze.
"Is it so hard for me to find a cultivation technique!"
Zhou Fu's face was gloomy. He walked through the yard and opened the door of the main room.
The room was not big. Standing at the door, he could clearly see the situation inside.
He looked around and suddenly found a person lying on the bed.
The person was lying on his side, facing inside. It looked like he was asleep.
Someone was here?
Zhou Fu stared at the person's back and pondered for a few breaths. Then, he quietly walked over.
When he came to the bed, the person on the bed showed no signs of waking up.
He turned his head and looked at the box next to him. According to Big Tiger's instructions, the "Chasing Wind Blade" manual was inside.
Should he take it or not?
Zhou Fu was very conflicted.
If he took it, he would have to capture the person on the bed. This made his conscience feel bad.
But if he didn't take it, he would not be satisfied.
"Take it!
If I don't take it, I will be punished. "
Zhou Fu struggled in his heart for a long time. In the end, he decided to take the saber manual. He really didn't want to feel the feeling of being surrounded by death. He wanted to become strong!
After making up his mind, Zhou Fu took a deep breath and extended his hand toward the figure on the bed. Just as he was about to touch the person's back, the person on the bed moved!
"F * ck!"
The body on the bed began to tremble. Then, the tremors grew stronger and stronger. Zhou Fu was so shocked that he took two steps back.
Bang!
The man abruptly turned over, and his face fell into Zhou Fu's eyes.
"I … f * ck …"
Zhou Fu's eyes instantly widened, and a burst of cold air rose from the soles of his feet, rushing straight to the top of his head.
The person lying on the bed was not a living person!
It was a corpse!
In the middle of the corpse, there seemed to be a clear dividing line that extended from the head to the lower abdomen.
The left half of the line, which was the side of the heart, was badly rotten. White bones could be seen in the dark red flesh.
The right side of the line was greenish gray, and the skin and flesh were intact.
What made Zhou Fu even more disgusted and scared was that black and white worms were constantly drilling in and out of the left half of the corpse.
Listening quietly, there was a dense and small sound.
"F * ck! Ah!"
Zhou Fu's face turned white.
This strange corpse constantly attacked his senses, and layers of goosebumps exploded on his body.
The air in his stomach surged up, and a sour smell went straight into his nose, tormenting him so much that he wanted to turn around and run out.
"No, I have already reached this step. I must get the saber manual!"
Zhou Fu gritted his teeth and took off his robe to wrap his hands. He rushed to the side of the box, grabbed the box with both hands, turned around, and rushed out of the room.
Bang!
He threw the box on the ground and held his knees with both hands, gasping for breath.
Zhou Fu looked back at the room, and his scalp tingled again.
"Damn, I was scared to death, but fortunately, I finally got the box. Let me see where the saber manual is."
This was a dark red box, as if it had been there for a long time.
The box was not locked, but there was a copper handle on the left and right sides.
"It's better that it's not locked. It saves me the trouble."
Zhou Fu reached out to open the box, but at the moment his hand was about to touch the box, he stopped.
"I seem to remember that there should be traps here. It's better to be careful."
Scenes from movies and TV series came to his mind, and Zhou Fu suddenly became vigilant. He found a wooden stick in the yard, shook his right hand, and the wooden stick smashed the box.
The box hit the ground, the lid opened, and the things inside tumbled out.
Zhou Fu opened his eyes wide and searched with the wooden stick bit by bit.
"Where's the book?
Where's the saber manual? "
The box was not big, and the things inside were limited. He even looked through the pieces of cloth inside twice, but the result was not even a fart.
Standing in the yard, Zhou Fu was a little stunned.
From Wang Feng to Da Hu, these two people gave him one surprise after another today. At the same time, they also let him know one thing: it was not easy to get the technique, and it was hard to find the real skill.
"Hehe, this is really interesting."
Zhou Fu suddenly laughed and cursed, then turned and left.
…
After leaving the Bluestone Alley, Zhou Fu did not go home. He asked the coachman to send him to Heng Yun Casino.
"Young Master, you're here."
The casino's manager, Liaohun, greeted Zhou Fu when he got off the carriage.
"Well, the shelves in the yard are all set up?"
When Zhou Fu was practicing "Saber Steps," he had broken the target in the yard, so he asked Liaohun to find someone to make a new one, bigger and sturdier than the previous one.
"Young Master, don't worry, the target has been set up according to your instructions."
Coming to the yard, Zhou Fu looked at the target that was bigger than before and was very satisfied. This one in front of him should be enough for him to trample on for a long time.
"Not bad, Manager Liao, I've troubled you."
"Young Master, you flatter me. This is what I should do. If Young Master has nothing else, I'll go ahead and do my work."
Liaohun knew that Zhou Fu liked peace and quiet, and liked to practice martial arts. Therefore, after showing the results of his task, he said goodbye. This was the professionalism of a casino manager for decades.
"Manager Liao, take care."
Zhou Fu was left alone in the yard. He called out the support interface and looked at the cooldown time of "Eternal Spring Energy" and "Bronze Armor Art". He whispered, "It's better to rely on myself than to rely on others. I have support, so what's there to worry about?
Isn't it just a little bit at the beginning? What's the big deal? "
"Zhou Fu, oh Zhou Fu, let's keep a low profile and develop. When we have equipment and level up, we'll go out and kill them!"
After drinking a few cups of chicken soup, Zhou Fu's fighting spirit was reignited.
Looking at the brand new wooden target, he whispered, "Do it!
Mountain Splitter! "
Boom!
The target made a muffled sound, and the small courtyard became lively again.
…
15 days later.
"Mountain Splitter!"
Zhou Fu punched out. In his body, a strong force flowed into his arm, making his already thick arm even thicker.
Boom!
Under the bombardment of his fist, the sturdy wooden target instantly broke, and the upper half flew out.
Whew ~
Zhou Fu opened the support interface. At this time, the cooldown time and proficiency of "Bronze Armor Art", "Eternal Spring Energy", and "Mountain Breaking Fist" were all ready. He could level up at any time.
This was the result of his ten days of hard work.
"Come, prepare some hot water for me."
"Yes!"
