Longevity begins with taking care of the master’s wife

Chapter 23 Ghost Boy, Source Crystal

"I'll paralyze you!"

Zhou Chen's sound was like a roaring bell, like a dragon roaring and a tiger roaring. It exploded in the silent Dahe Village, waking up countless sleeping villagers.

His anger was not entirely fake to attract Zhang Long, who was staying at Qin Jianghe's house. He was really angry.

He is having fun controlling four balls by himself. You, a little kid, knock on the door in the middle of the night and cause trouble, and make a move. Isn't this looking for a slap in the face?

boom!
  The door exploded and turned into sawdust everywhere. Zhou Chen rushed out, furious.

A strange child covered in black body flew out together with the sawdust from the door, spinning 360 degrees in the air and landing lightly on the ground.

His pupils were hollow, his mouth was cracked, extending to the back of his ears, and he stared straight at Zhou Chen and smiled:
  "Hehe, big brother, are you here to play ball with me?"

"I'm playing with paralysis!"

Zhou Chen unsheathed the short knife in his hand instantly, roared, and his whole body exploded with energy and blood, and all his blood vessels and muscles swelled.

With a bang, the clothes on Zhou Chen's upper body were shattered by his blood.

Zhou Chen stepped forward and swung his short knife towards the strange child's head.

The short sword is two feet long, but it cuts out three inches of blood-red sword energy.

Bang!
  The sword energy and dagger slashed on the strange child's head, and a terrifying roar erupted, like two small iron mountains colliding hard.

next moment.

Both figures flew out upside down.

Zhou Chen landed on the ground and took nine steps back in a row. Each step left a deep footprint on the stone slab on the ground before he stabilized his body and his palms became numb.

He stared at the strange child who was knocked away by him, and saw an inch-deep blood mark on the other person's forehead, with black blood continuously gushing out, which was strange and terrifying.

But Zhou Chen felt a little relieved. Although this strange child was very strong, it was not ridiculously strong.

He can still compete.

However, Zhou Chen did not intend to use all his strength to fight with it.

He only had to delay for a while until Zhang Long arrived.

Zhou Chen's previous roar woke up even the ordinary villagers, let alone Zhang Long, who was at the third level of body refining and tendon refining.

Zhang Long jumped up from the bed with a whoosh, picked up the knife and ran towards where Zhou Chen was.

He is fast.

Ten meters in a step, Qin Jianghe's house is not far from Zhou Chen's house, about a thousand meters in a straight line, and he arrives at Zhou Chen's house in a few breaths.

"Whee!"

"I want to play ball!"

The strange child covered in darkness stared at Zhou Chen, his mouth split open, and bursts of sly laughter appeared, as if he was about to take off Zhou Chen's head and play with it as a ball in the next moment.

Whoosh!
  Suddenly, the strange child rushed towards Zhou Chen again. The speed was extremely fast, like an afterimage, and ordinary people couldn't see clearly. It was extremely fast.

Zhou Chen sensed that Zhang Long had arrived at the door, pretending to be panicked and reluctantly raised his short knife to block it in front of him.

boom!
  The harsh sound of gold and iron clashing exploded, and Zhou Chen was blown away.

"Bold monster, don't be so presumptuous!"

Zhang Long held a knife in both hands and slashed Huashan with one move towards the strange child. He had already completed the meat refining and was promoted to the third level of body refining and muscle refining. His strength exceeded 10,000 kilograms.

The three-foot-long sword dragged the blood-red sword energy that was more than a foot long and invincible. The strange child just attacked Zhou Chen. Although Zhou Chen was knocked away, he was also hit by a huge counterattack.

At this moment, when the old strength was gone and the new strength was not born, Zhang Long was sneak-attacked and he could only instinctively block it with his hands above his head.

boom!
  This sword was more powerful than Zhou Chen's previous sword. After all, Zhou Chen had not exploded all his power before.

What's more, Zhang Long's cultivation level is higher than Zhou Chen's, and his weapons are better than Zhou Chen's. After cutting off the strange child's arms amidst the shrill screams, this sword slashed down like a broken bamboo and split his head in half!
  "Ahhh, I'm going to take off your ball and kick it to pieces!"

Black energy surged crazily around the strange child, and he rushed toward Zhang Long.

Zhang Long was not afraid, and danced with a long sword so tightly that you came and I fought, having a great time.

Zhou Chen got up and looked at the battlefield.

Zhang Long already had an absolute advantage and it would only be a matter of time before he killed the strange child.

"This ghost boy looks like a ghost but not like a zombie. He has a physical body but doesn't look like a zombie. He should belong to the category of evil spirits..."

After Zhou Chen obtained Ji Fengxia, he gained some basic knowledge.

He likes to learn. Especially after having Ji Fengxia as his teacher, he spent almost all his time studying with Ji Fengxia in Fengyue Baojian and exploring new knowledge.

boom!
  A moment later, the strange child was killed by Zhang Long and turned into a pile of white powder, but there was a crystal in the powder, which was crystal clear.

Zhang Long saw the look of surprise in the crystal stone's eyes and quickly bent down to pick it up and put it in his arms, as if he was afraid that others would steal his treasure.

"Fengxia, what is that crystal stone? What is it used for?"

Zhou Chen consciously asked Ji Fengxia in Fengyue Baojian.

"Master, that is the source crystal. Ghosts and evil spirits may explode after they die. It is of great benefit to cultivators. It can improve their cultivation. It is more precious than spiritual stones!"

"I see!"

Zhou Chen was suddenly stunned and couldn't help but think of Zhang Long's personal visit to Dahe Village to investigate the evil tiger's cannibalism.

At that time, only seven people were missing, and we were not sure what was going on.

Zhou Chen had wondered before, could Zhang Long, a county captain, serve the people so enthusiastically?
  According to the urine of those officials.

Normally, one or two detectives would be sent over to understand the situation. If there was a real terror, people like Zhang Long would be alerted to take action.

Now seeing the source crystal, Zhou Chen completely understood.

At that time, Zhang Long was at the peak of the second level of body refining and needed an opportunity to break through.

After hearing about what happened in Dahe Village, I guessed that there might be ghosts causing trouble, so I came over to have a look. It would be best if I could get the Source Crystal.

After Zhang Long arrived, although he didn't get the source crystal, he killed a monster tiger and made a breakthrough.

It’s not like returning without success.

"Have you completed skin refining and entered the second level of body refining?"

Zhang Long came to Zhou Chen and looked up and down with his tiger eyes, looking at the body with perfect muscle lines and full of masculine power, full of surprise.

The ghost boy just now was not weak. If he hadn't taken advantage of it with a sneak attack, it would have taken a lot of effort to capture it.

You might even get injured.

But Zhou Chen fought a few moves with the ghost boy, resisted for a few breaths, and was still unscathed. This was by no means just a matter of refining qi and blood.

At least you have to be successful in leather refining, the leather is as good as cowhide, and it is hard to be damaged by a sword, so that you can be safe and sound.

"My lord, I have a keen eye. I was lucky enough to complete the skin refining before and step into the second level of body refining!"

Zhou Chen said modestly.

"Practice is practice, nothing is left to chance!"

Zhang Long looked at Zhou Chen with eager eyes, knowing that he was only at the second level of body refining before.

And he is already in his thirties.

Zhou Chen is only eighteen years old, and his talent is much better than his.

It is even possible to reach the third level of body refining at the age of twenty, which is his current state.

Although he can't be compared with those geniuses from aristocratic families and sect's geniuses, in this small village of Dahe, he can be called the pride of heaven.

"You are very good. You are not afraid of ghost children. The most important thing for our generation of warriors is courage. We need talents like you for our great work!"

Zhang Long extended an olive branch without hesitation:
  "You have such a talent, it's such a waste to live in the small village of Dahe and hunt!"

"But if you are interested in contributing to the country, if you make great achievements in the future, get promoted to a high official position, and be granted the title of wife, you will be able to honor your ancestors!"

There was no surprise at all about Zhang Long's recruitment of Zhou Chen, who had been waiting for him to speak for a long time.

Zhou Chen looked surprised and bowed his hands:
  "Thanks to your great love, I am deeply honored and willing to serve the country!"

"Good good!"

Zhang Long was overjoyed. Although Zhou Chen was more talented than him, he was not jealous.

He knew his talent, and that was it for the rest of his life.

Unless someone helps you.

Zhou Chen has good talent. If he can go far in the future, he can also drink soup.
