Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 10: The Strange Robber

"Isn't this the house that Liu Cheng inspected?"

Qin Feng quickly remembered, after Liu Cheng left their dormitory.

He entered the adjacent room.

"It must be that black ball!"

Qin Feng had already guessed something.

The deaths of these servants must be related to the black ball in Liu Cheng's hand.

If it weren't for the deaths of several people in their dormitory today.

Perhaps the people killed by the Anomaly this time would be them.

"I wonder why Liu Cheng did this!"

But soon Qin Feng understood.

They were just lowly servants.

They had no status whatsoever within the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

Even if many died.

The Eternal Peace Medicine Manor wouldn't investigate anything.

After thinking it through, Qin Feng self-mockingly said.

"I must quickly escape from the identity of a servant!"

Qin Feng tightly clenched his fist.

He must quickly become a guard.

That way, his life wouldn't be in the hands of others.

"Take it step by step, first cultivate the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique to Great Accomplishment!"

"And also, when I come back in the future, I must check under the bed to see if there are any black balls!"

"Then pay attention to when the Eternal Peace Medicine Manor is recruiting guards!"

"But most importantly, find a wife and awaken the attributes!"

'...'

Qin Feng secretly made a decision.

The first step was to cultivate the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique to Great Accomplishment.

Only then could he become a guard.

Early the next day.

Qin Feng woke up early.

By the time Qin Feng came out, there were already many guards waiting there.

A few minutes later, Liu Cheng walked out from inside with his hands behind his back, smiling.

There was a jade box on his right hand.

"Return to the county!"

Liu Cheng said softly.

"Yes, sir!"

The many guards hurriedly urged the servant who collected herbs.

Soon after, these guards led the servants who collected herbs towards Eternal Peace County.

The mood of these servants along the way was very bad.

Many of them hadn't completed their collection tasks and had lost a lot of money.

Some of them had been beaten by Liu Cheng.

"A Feng, how could those people who were perfectly fine be killed by the Anomaly?"

Zhang Han's face was still very pale.

It seemed that in the past few days, the deaths of those servants nearby had made him very worried.

"I'm not very sure either!"

"Maybe they didn't offer incense!"

Qin Feng shook his head slightly.

It wasn't that Qin Feng didn't want to tell Zhang Han.

After all, the tragic deaths of these servants were related to Liu Cheng.

And Zhang Han was a big mouth.

If Qin Feng told him in the morning, all the servants in the entire Eternal Peace Medicine Manor would know about it in the afternoon.

By then, Liu Cheng would definitely want Qin Feng's life.

Since Zhang Han didn't ask anything, he ran towards Hu Qingfu.

The speed of the group was very fast, and they had only walked more than ten miles in just over half an hour.

"All guards, be on guard!"

The captain of the guards, Jiang Yong, suddenly shouted loudly.

Upon hearing Jiang Yong's words, Qin Feng quickly looked ahead.

He saw more than a dozen strong men running towards them.

The leader was riding a tall horse.

"Oh no, are these bandits from Black Wind Mountain?"

"What's going on? How did the bandits from Black Wind Mountain come here?"

"Isn't our Eternal Peace Medicine Manor not involved with bandits?"

"..."

The servants looked nervously at the bandits ahead.

"Fourth Elder, I pay my respects!"

Jiang Yong bowed to the leader.

"So it's Captain Jiang!"

The leader responded respectfully.

Si Dangjia smiled and looked at Jiang Yong.

"Si Dangjia, what do you mean by this?"

"Why did you stop us?"

"We are from Eternal Peace Medicine Manor!"

There was a hint of threat in Jiang Yong's tone.

"Hahaha, Captain Jiang, we would never dare to rob Eternal Peace Medicine Manor!"

Si Dangjia laughed heartily and then said, "It's just that our bandit group is a bit tight on funds..."

Upon hearing Si Dangjia's words, Jiang Yong's expression changed slightly.

Although he was a Ninth Grade Martial Artist,

Si Dangjia, the leader of the Black Wind Gang, was also a Ninth Grade Martial Artist.

But Si Dangjia had more than ten bandits behind him.

And this place was near the Black Wind Gang, so there might be other leaders nearby.

If they really fought, they would probably all end up here.

"Jiang Yong, step back!"

Liu Cheng walked out of the carriage.

"Yes, sir!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yong breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stepped aside.

"Si Dangjia, I have prepared a small gift, please have a look!"

While speaking, Liu Cheng handed over a jade box.

When Qin Feng saw the jade box, his expression changed slightly.

Because he recognized the jade box.

It was the jade box that Liu Cheng used to hold the black ball.

"Good, since Manager Liu is so generous, I am not an ungrateful person!"

"Let them pass!"

Si Dangjia took the jade box without opening it and waved his hand towards the back.

The bandits immediately made way.

"Thank you, Si Dangjia!"

Liu Cheng bowed and led the way towards Eternal Peace County.

Jiang Yong, along with many guards and servants, followed behind Liu Cheng.

"Manager Liu is really amazing!"

"I wonder what treasure Manager Liu gave to the Black Wind Gang bandits!"

"I guess it's silver!"

"..."

Many servants were discussing Liu Cheng.

They all admired Liu Cheng's composure in front of the bandits.

Qin Feng did not participate in the discussion among the servants.

Instead, he suspected Liu Cheng and Si Dangjia.

Liu Cheng must have reached some kind of agreement with the Black Wind Gang.

Otherwise, the Black Wind Gang would not have let them pass so easily.

And that black ball was definitely not an ordinary treasure.

Liu Cheng handed the black ball to Si Dangjia so easily.

He must have a great deal of trust in Si Dangjia.

Either that, or Liu Cheng was a member of the Black Wind Gang.

But these were just his own speculations.

He couldn't say them out loud.

The journey back was very fast, and they encountered no incidents along the way, returning to the servants' hall.

In the afternoon, Qin Feng began practicing the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique in a secluded corner.

After several days of practice, he had already memorized all the moves of the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique.

After completing one round, Qin Feng continued to practice.

At this moment, Qin Feng felt a sense of urgency.

He had to quickly reach Great Accomplishment in the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique.

Only then could he deal with Liu Cheng and the many anomalies.

One round.

Two rounds.

Qin Feng practiced until the sun set before finally stopping.

[Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique: Basic Accomplishment: 88/500 - Form the fist, focus the mind, use qi to exert force, attack fiercely]

Looking at the numbers on the panel, Qin Feng was filled with joy.

He didn't expect to improve his proficiency by more than twenty in just one afternoon.

If he continued at this pace,

He would only need a little over ten days to reach Great Accomplishment in the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique.

In the main hall,

Six new faces appeared in the main hall.

These six people were brought by Zhang Han from elsewhere.

Among them, one person had a very pale complexion.

"San, aren't you infected with a cold?"

Zhang Han looked at San with a puzzled expression.
