Chapter 134 Poor boy becomes rich
Chapter 134 A poor man suddenly becomes rich
“So...so fast!”
Many of the followers behind Meng Xie blinked their eyes, and when they looked again, they could no longer see Chen Lin, and they couldn't help but scream in horror.
“Isn’t that the body technique of a martial artist?”
“No, this Chen Lin has never been to a martial arts school. Where did he learn the movement technique?”
“I’ve heard that he is close to martial arts schools in the inner city and has connections with martial arts masters. Maybe that’s how he learned it?”
The comments made Meng Xie’s face turn redder and redder.
“What’s the use of connections? I eat dragon-marked fish, and I will definitely be able to advance to the Qi realm in the future. Then there will be many people to curry favor with me!”
He took back his hand and snorted coldly.
Just looking at the lively scene around the mountain pass, thinking back to Chen Lin who was just surrounded by everyone's enthusiasm, he still felt uneasy in his heart.
Some followers stood on tiptoe and suddenly thought of a rumor:
“Although I don’t know what strange beast Chen Lin ate, he seems to be no worse than Mr. Crab, right?”
Unknowingly, he came to the restaurant in Xicheng surrounded by people, sat down at the table before he knew it, and drank a few drinks without knowing it.
“Okay!” Meng Xie nodded with satisfaction and continued walking in the fish market.
Happy sounds of fawning came one after another, and gifts were stuffed into hands.
Then he bared his teeth and shouted loudly:
“Mr. Crab is mighty!”
The followers were still shouting, which quickly attracted the attention of the fishermen and people in Nancheng, who bowed their heads and bowed their eyebrows to greet them respectfully.
Many idle scoundrels saw the movement and quickly gathered around.
Meng Xie's face looked better now, and he led everyone back to the county town.
“So, how’s Mr. Crab?”
I am very satisfied with this, and my mood is getting better.
"ah?"
“My face is so red today, Mr. Crab must be in for something happy!”
“Ah, what, why don’t you scream faster?”
"What's so good about wine? Mr. Crab, you should look at this piece of silver in my hand. I picked it up from your door when I got up this morning. I think you must have dropped it and I have been keeping it for you!"
“Mr. Crab will definitely be able to advance to Qi realm in the future!”
Walked all the way back to Nancheng.
“Hey, you old man, there are others!” The bald follower stood up, rolled up his sleeves to reveal his strong arms, and counted them one by one:
“Now I’m telling you guys—from now on, you’re going to be called Mr. Crab, and stop calling me brother. Do you understand?”
Other followers also shouted.
“Mr. Crab, come to my house for a drink tonight. I just got the top-quality goods yesterday…”
“Hello Brother Crab…”
He was only halfway through his words when his mouth was covered by the buck teeth of He next to him.
Meng Xie looked at the smiling faces of everyone in front of him. The excitement was even worse than the scene where Chen Lin was surrounded by people just now.
The atmosphere was extremely lively.
During the dinner, a rogue quietly poked his head over:
“Mr. Crab, everyone outside says that you are a great hero who makes decisions for us Nancheng people. I have an grievance and I want to ask your help...
It is related to the wealthy He family in Xicheng, the family where Chen Lin killed his father and son in Beicheng. I am afraid that it will implicate you. "
Meng Xie was so drunk that he blinked a few times, and it took him a while to react sluggishly:
“Say, just say it!”
"Chen Lin is not afraid of any rich family or He family, and I am naturally not afraid either... Gen, there is no need to be afraid at all, they are all cowards!"
He slapped the table hard, startling half of the people in the restaurant.
The rogue just now was overjoyed and said quickly: "Then the He family owed me hundreds of taels of wages..."
“That’s it?”
“I’m going to help you get it back now. I used to be an ordinary citizen and I know your sufferings... In the future, if you are bullied by the rich, you can come to me to make the decision. Those rich families have nothing to be afraid of!”
Meng Xie stood up as he spoke, looking very proud.
"Okay! Master Crab is indeed a hero!" "Master Crab makes decisions for us, the common people!"
The banquet was suddenly filled with joy, frequently attracting the attention of others.
The other side of the restaurant.
Gu Wenqin poked his head out of the private room and looked at Meng Xie and his party in surprise.
“That person is Meng Xie?”
She listened for a while, and the more she listened, the more strange she felt, "How come it doesn't match the rumors?"
Seeing the drunken Meng Xie leading everyone in the direction of He's house, it seemed that he was really going to collect debts.
She then returned to the private room with a frown on her face.
Wearing a veil, Xu Jianzhu, dressed in plain clothes, sat calmly by the window.
“Sister Xu, did you hear what Meng Xie said?”
“Yes.” Sword Master Xu nodded, his eyes unwavering.
“I always feel that this person is weird.”
Gu Wenqin walked to the window again and stared at the slutty gangsters around Meng Xie on the street: "I have never seen such people around Chen Lin..."
Xu Jianzhu shook his head slightly and said in a calm voice: "He is just an ordinary person who values fame and wealth and loves vanity."
“It’s normal for a poor person to become rich suddenly. There are too few indifferent people like Chen Lin.”
She picked up a cup of tea, her veil swaying slightly, and slightly wrinkled the tea in the cup.
After hearing this, Gu Wenqin suddenly understood.
“No wonder! I always felt that Chen Lin was different from other martial arts masters before. It turns out that’s the reason!”
"It's a pity that my uncle refuses to meet Chen Lin. He is obviously a good person."
…
…
Chen Lin doesn't know much about the outside world.
He defrosted a piece of half-cooked flying tiger meat from the black stone. According to the records in the "Book of Medicine", he boiled the essence over a fierce fire and condensed it until it became gelatinous. Then he ground ginseng, musk, polygala and other medicinal materials into powder, and kneaded it into a paste. Pellets.
“Then let it sit for another night, waiting for the effects of the medicine to mix, and it will become Feihu Xingshen Pills, which can break the hallucinations of ecstasy, calm the mind and calm the mind..."
Chen Lin lit a fire in front of the stove and worked according to the recipe for a long time before completing most of the steps for the Xingshen Pill. He only needed to let it sit for another three days.
The pills mixed with medicinal powder began to slowly change color, absorbing the essence of the medicinal materials.
“This is different from alchemy in the world of immortality. It’s more like a method of preparing medicine. I don’t know what the final effect of the medicine will be..."
Put this recipe aside, take out a tiger bone, and follow a similar method to make a pot of tiger bone strengthening medicine.
This is to strengthen the soul and may be helpful for building the foundation level.
"Although the world is different, there should be no deviation in the understanding of the soul."
The aphrodisiac medicine also needs to be left alone for three days.
Taking advantage of this period of time, Chen Lin took out the space black stone and observed it for a while.
Nothing unusual was found.
The scraps of gold thrown into the Source Cave before were not enough for the Black Stone to evolve for the second time.
Only when drawing the talisman, you can feel that its carrying capacity seems to have increased.
In the past, when I drew a low-grade spell, I could feel it trembling, as if it could not withstand the mana inside it.
The tremors are almost gone now.
Overall, this black stone has a bright future.
Not only can it be used as a storage bag, the space inside also has the possibility of evolution, and it can even be used to draw symbols.
Chen Lin held the black stone in his hand and thought in his heart:
“Currently, the top-grade talisman has black snake scales and male tiger skin, the middle-grade talisman has female tiger skin, and the lower-grade talisman only has this black stone and some fine lamp oil tree bark...”
