Cultivating Immortals From Prison

Chapter 45 New Neighbors

There are a lot of things on the table, all of which are harvested tonight.

Gu Shen first picked up the full version of Xiantian Gong, and read through the Xiantian chapter.

He has already cultivated Xiantian Kung Fu to a very high level, and he has a deep understanding of this Kung Fu. He knew that there is no problem with the follow-up Xiantian chapter just after reading it once.

Now that the issue of the exercises has been resolved, he can rest assured that he can cultivate to the innate level.

Putting down his innate skills, Gu Shen picked up another thing from the table.

"Barrier Breaking Pill."

Gu Shen looked at the pill in the glass bottle in front of him.

"Counting this barrier-breaking pill, I have three pills in my hand. This barrier-breaking pill can increase the probability of a warrior successfully breaking through to the first rank. I don't know the specific effect of the other two pills."

Gu Shen shook his head slightly, he has now cultivated to the first rank of martial arts, this treasure pill that would be snatched even if his head was broken in the outside world, in his hands at the moment, it is not of much use.

To Gu Shen's pity, there are two other pills obtained from Tongxuan old Taoist, without knowing the specific effect, Gu Shen dare not eat them so carelessly.

What if it is poisonous?Although at Gu Shen's level, it is difficult for ordinary poisons to work on him, but there are also unusual poisons, such as Chaoju's Huagong Powder.

"However, although these pills are not of much use to me, they are of extremely high value. Just like this barrier-breaking pill, even Zhang Chenghe spent more than 20 taels of silver to buy it. If the auction continues normally , maybe it can be sold for [-] taels of silver." Gu Shen thought to himself.

Putting down the barrier-breaking pill in his hand, Gu Shen picked up another small glass bottle that was slightly bigger than his thumb on the table.

This was found from Zhang Chenghe.

Holding the small glass bottle, Gu Shen put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.

There are some pink powder in the glass bottle, the color looks very bright.

"What the hell is this? The old devil Zhang Chenghe has some strange things on him."

Gu Shen frowned tightly. He has been living in the capital since he crossed over. Apart from his home and prison, the place he visited most was the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. He never wandered the rivers and lakes for a day, and he didn't understand many things.

"This thing looks good."

"But Zhang Wuji's mother said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more dangerous she is. Similarly, the more colorful things are, the more careful they are."

"Zhang Chenghe is not a good person. He is carrying this thing on his body. It is probably used to harm people. It may be some kind of poison."

"Of course, this pink powder is so beautiful, it doesn't rule out that it has the effect of beautifying and nourishing the skin."

"In the future, if you have the opportunity to meet someone who is well-informed, you can take it out and ask him to help you."

After putting down the bottle of pink powder, Gu Shen looked at the stack of banknotes on the table and roughly counted them, it was about 4000 taels.

These banknotes were taken from Zhang Chenghe's body.

"It's no wonder that this old devil didn't bid for the innate skills with me at that time. It turned out that he didn't have many bank notes. If he continued to bid with me, he probably wouldn't be able to win the barrier-breaking pill."

"More than 6 taels is not a small number. This money just made up for the lack of my innate skills, but it was more than 3 taels."

"Sure enough, if you want to get rich with a golden belt for killing people and setting fires, you still have to take an unusual path."

After taking stock of tonight's harvest, Gu Shen put away the banknotes, the Breaking Barrier Pill and the pink powder into a small box, and put them together with the two unknown pills.

The full version of Xiantian Gong was stuffed under his quilt by Gu Shen, and he took it out to have a look when he was free.

After blowing out the lights, Gu Shen lay on the bed, replaying today's events.

When he participated in this auction, he didn't intend to do anything. He just wanted to buy the full version of Xiantian Gong. He wanted to keep a low profile and try not to attract attention. As for Zhang Chenghe, it was just an accident.

However, the fight with Zhang Chenghe gave Gu Shen a clearer understanding of his own strength. After all, he had never fought against anyone before. This was his first official fight with someone, and it still cost a life. kind of.

"Even if I'm in the first rank now, I'm relatively strong. Compared with that Man Hanlong, his internal energy is still a bit vain because he just broke through the first rank. I'm about to condense a lot."

"When I fought with Zhang Chenghe, I could feel that Man Hanlong was inside the gate, but he didn't make a move. He should be afraid of me."

"Ah."

Thinking of this, Gu Shen couldn't help but feel a little proud. Man Hanlong, who is famous all over the world, even the imperial court is afraid of Man Hanlong, is actually afraid of himself.

Before he knew it, Gu Shen found that he had already become one of the best masters in the world.

in the next days.

Gu Shen returned to his normal state, and in the first few days, he was extra cautious.

Even in the imperial prison, Gu Shen has heard the legend about the mysterious masked man.

Xu Yan told his colleagues how the mysterious masked man showed his supernatural power and killed the eight-faced centipede Zhang Chenghe with two palms outside the gate of Manjiazhuang.

"Brother Xu, is that person really that good?" Zhang Shunli questioned. In his mind, a master of the eighth rank is already very good, and a second-rate master of the third rank is even more amazing. As for the first-rate master of the upper third rank, then He was a first-class figure like a fairy, but it was such a great master who was slapped to death with two palms in front of that mysterious masked man.

Zhang Shunli expressed his disbelief.

Xu Yan's eyes widened immediately, and he said in a loud voice: "Of course it's true. My fourth uncle's brother's cousin's brother's sister was there at the time, so what she said could be false?"

Li Ga also said: "That's right, there is a dark tide in private in the capital right now, and the mysterious masked man is being discussed everywhere."

Gu Shen was beside him without saying a word.

As Li Ga said, there are indeed many rumors about the mysterious masked man in the capital.

After all, there are many first-rank masters in the world, plus Man Hanlong who has just broken through first-rank, there are only eight first-rank masters, and this first-rank master who just appeared is not well-known to everyone before, so it naturally attracts the attention of all parties. .

At times like this, Gu Shen kept a low profile.

However, there are loopholes. After all, there were Lu Yuanming and Pei Zongzhi who were with Gu Shen at the time. Pei Zongzhi didn't know Gu Shen's identity, but Lu Yuanming naturally knew, and Lu Yuanming was a well-known benevolent person in the capital before. If you want to find it, it's not difficult. Discover Lu Yuanming's identity.

Some people are afraid of the mysterious masked man and dare not investigate further.However, there were also people who investigated the identity of the mysterious masked man out of various motives, and some even went outside Lu's mansion.

In the past few days, Gu Shen would go out every night, and a group of people would disappear the next day. These were people who were secretly watching Lu's mansion, and there was even a third-rank expert among them.

This intimidation made most people dare not continue to investigate, and at the same time, a rumor began to spread on some channels that the Lu family had a master of the first rank!

As soon as this news came out, the Lu family's status was greatly elevated in an instant, and it became an existence that could not be provoked.

Lu Yuanming could also feel the changes in the situation of the Lu family. On the one hand, it seemed to be roasted on the fire. On the other hand, the status had indeed been greatly improved. The business field was inexplicably smooth, and competitors collapsed one after another.

As time passed day by day, the turmoil of the mysterious masked man gradually disappeared, but the Lu family was put on the list of not to be provoked by many forces.

On this day, in the prison, Gu Shen, as usual, went to the kitchen to get the rice bucket, and started delivering food to the prisoners.

Room B and No. [-].

Gu Shen put down his rice bucket, looked at the corpse in the prison cell, and walked in slowly, a black substance emerged from the corpse, gradually floating on his body.

Gu Shen closed his eyes slightly, feeling the change of internal energy, like a small puddle poured into a surging river, the effect was not obvious, but the water in the river became more turbulent.

"This prisoner was in the sixth-grade realm before his death. The black substance produced after death is not strong but not light. It's just that the effect on me is not so obvious."

Gu Shen sighed a little, shook his head slightly,
"I miss absorbing the black substance produced by second-grade masters, and it has a much stronger effect on me."

"I have never absorbed the black substance produced after the fall of a first-rank master. Grass, why do I feel that I am a bit perverted?"

Gu Shen shook his head, called Zhang Shunli to come over, and asked him to report the death of the prisoner in Cell B and No. [-], and then he continued to deliver the food with the rice bucket.

After that, Gu Shen didn't think too much about it, he also understood that in fact, his current entry into the country was considered very fast.

Even if he now feels that the effect of the black matter produced after the fall of a sixth-rank warrior is not obvious enough, this is already equivalent to the progress of other warriors in the same realm for several months.

Just absorbing the black matter produced after the fall of these ordinary warriors, Gu Shen's daily improvement is a great improvement for other first-rank warriors.

Three more days passed.

After Gu Shen nodded, he inspected the cell as usual.

When passing cell B No. 15, Gu Shen found that the prisoners inside had their heads down and were lifeless.

"interesting."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows, looking at the prisoner inside with interest.

The prisoner was Wei Zhengye, the owner of the Qingtao Martial Arts School in the capital city. Because of a fight for students, he clashed with another martial arts school, killed the owner and many disciples of the opponent's martial arts school, and was arrested and sent to prison.

The person who was beaten to death had connections in the imperial court, so he sent a message to the prison to take good care of Wei Zhengye.

After a few days of "serving", Wei Zhengye was already dying.

In the form Gu Shen made, Wei Zhengye is a master of the fourth-rank realm. His body has been tempered by inner qi, and his toughness is far beyond that of ordinary people. He should be able to last for a few more days.

Just died today?
Looking at Wei Zhengye who had died, Gu Shen had a half-smile expression on his face. He looked around to see if there was no one there, then opened the cell door and walked in.

"step."

"Two steps."

"Three steps."

After Gu Shen read the three steps in his mind, Wei Zhengye, who was already dead, opened his eyes.

A look of cruelty flashed in his eyes, Wei Zhengye stretched out his hand to grab Gu Shen——

"Huh?" Wei Zhengye found out in horror that he couldn't move anymore, and now the only thing that could move in his whole body was a pair of eyes.

He originally planned to feign death to lure the jailer in, then catch the little jailer and force him to unlock himself.Entering the imperial prison is a situation where death is inevitable, so it is better to fight, maybe there is still a chance of survival.

It's just that the development in reality seems to be different from what he imagined.

Seeing those smiling eyes getting closer and closer to him, Wei Zhengye suddenly understood in his heart that the culprit for his inability to move now was the little jailer in front of him.

"Since you are going to die, then die well." Gu Shen's palm lightly pressed Wei Zhengye's celestial cap.

In the next moment, Wei Zhengye was really out of breath, and the last remaining thought in his mind before he died was——"I was wrong."

A black substance emerged from Wei Zhengye's body and was absorbed by Gu Shen.

Wei Zhengye's death was not even a small episode in the imperial prison.

And Gu Shen also had some thoughts, thinking secretly in his heart while patrolling the cell.

"My current entry is not slow, but it can be faster."

"Although there are unjust, false and erroneous cases in the prison, there are also vicious and vicious people. I can send them a ride for such people. It will not only help them suffer less physical suffering, but also help me."

Gu Shen has received modern education in his previous life, and compared to the people in the martial arts in the Dayin Dynasty, he actually lacks a sense of ruthlessness. Sometimes he will feel pity when he sees people who have been wrongly imprisoned in the imperial prison.

But for those kind of vicious people, Gu Shen has no mercy, and killing these people himself can also temper his heart. In this troubled world, it is not a good thing to have a heart of mercy.

Having made a decision, Gu Shen started to act from this day.

No one can find out the tricks when a master of the first rank fights, or even if Dong Sheng, the innate master and general Dong Sheng, is here, he can't see it. A little jailer.

And Gu Shen's actions were not too big, he just killed two or three people every day. In this prison where people die every day, it is really normal for two more people to die.

Under such circumstances, Gu Shen's cultivation speed has doubled from the original one.

It is getting closer and closer to the realm of the innate master.

During this period of time, Gu Shen would still go to the Xiaoxiang Hall with his colleagues every day after the government was released.

The business of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion is not as good as before. The reason is that everyone from Song left the Xiaoxiang Pavilion at some point.

For a while, the business of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion plummeted, not to mention hundreds of feet.

The departure of everyone in Song made many people feel disappointed, including Xu Yan, Li Ga and others.

Everyone guessed where the Song family went, whether they left the capital or went to another brothel.

Gu Shen was also puzzled, he was not obsessed with Master Song like everyone else, but Master Song impressed him very much, through Master Song, he knew that there was a vast world beyond the Dayin Dynasty.

Everyone Song has been to many places and is a mysterious woman.

She also said that she would make carvings for him and would often send him some pastries.

It's just that after that night, everyone in Song seemed to have disappeared.

After listening to the song in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Xu Yan and Li Ga went upstairs to find a girl, and Gu Shen and Zhang returned home smoothly.

"Go on." Gu Shen lavishly took out two taels of silver and threw it to Xiao Wei who was following him.

Xiaowei's eyes turned into crescents, and after receiving the money, she bowed and said, "Thank you, Brother Gu."

This scene made many girls in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion envious.

Now the business in the restaurant is not as good as before, and it is difficult to earn money, but Gu Shen is still as generous as before, with such a large amount of money, but Xiao Wei got the rewards.

Xiaowei is the biological daughter of the old bustard in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and everyone dare not compete with this girl, they can only envy and hate her in their hearts.

Gu Shen and Zhang Shunli walked out of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, the sky was getting dark outside, and the moonlight shone like water on the empty streets.

Gu Shen looked at Zhang Shunli and said, "Shunli, don't you always stay in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion in the past? Why are you leaving today?"

Zhang Shunli pursed his lips, and said solemnly: "Brother Gu, I used to be ignorant and couldn't resist the temptation. I wanted to become a warrior, even an eighth-rank warrior like you."

Gu Shen raised his eyebrows, looked at the serious Zhang Shunli in front of him, and asked in surprise, "You want to be a warrior?"

Zhang Shunli nodded heavily, and said: "Brother Gu, I am not very talented in martial arts, but I don't want to accept my fate like this. For people like us, practicing martial arts is the only way out. I also want to become an eighth-rank master one day. The captain will save face."

As he said that, Zhang Shunli looked at Gu Shen and said, "Brother Gu, I want to learn from you. You are more talented than me, and you work harder than me. I heard that martial arts practitioners can't vent Yuanyang. My Yuanyang is gone." Excuse me, but in the future I want to save some Yuanyang and practice hard, I won’t be with Brother Xu and Brother Li anymore, I will learn from you in the future!”

Gu Shen didn't expect this, "Yuanyang can still save?"

Zhang Shunli scratched his head and said, "It should be possible."

Gu Shen nodded and said, "Then you can ask me any questions about your cultivation in the future."

Zhang Shunli didn't lay a solid foundation when he was a teenager, and his cultivation talent was not high. Even if he wants to practice hard now, it is probably too late.

But it's always good for the prodigal son to turn around. Zhang Shunli can wake up, it's definitely better than going on like this.

Back then Uncle Zhang took good care of Gu Shen, but now that Zhang Shunli wants to practice martial arts, Gu Shen is also willing to help him.

It's just that we can't just listen to what Zhang Shunli has to say now, but also to see whether he can really practice martial arts with all his heart and give up temptation in the future.

The two were talking, and when they reached Anyifang, they parted ways, and Gu Shen walked towards Qiumingfang.

When he was about to get home, Gu Shen found that the courtyard next door, which had been idle for a long time, seemed to have moved in. The gate of the courtyard had obviously been meticulously repaired, with new paint on the door and brand new red lanterns hanging on both sides.

Gu Shen didn't care, and returned home.

However, just as he was about to rest on the deck chair in front of the sycamore tree, he heard a familiar, melodious and light pipa sound from the newly moved neighbor's house next door.
