Start from miscellaneous fish to gain experience and cultivate immortality

Chapter 1 Miscellaneous Fish Split Muscles and Bones
  The crisp autumn air is the most comfortable time of the year.

"Sorry to bother you, sir."

In a school, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old wearing a blue shorts saluted a teacher and left.

Outside the door, a rather sturdy young man of the same age was leaning against the wall with a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth. When he saw the young man coming out, he hurried forward.

"The deacon has arranged for us to collect debts. It would be better for you to come here every day to read and read. This is not your proper job and will make people laugh if word spreads about it."

"It's good to study. A big shot said that books are the ladder of human progress; another big shot said that young and Dangerous boys will remain Young and Dangerous all their lives without using their brains." Wang Shen said with a smile.

"What? Let me tell you something big. This morning a corpse was found by the Qinghe River. The stomach was cut open, and the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and intestines were emptied out. There was also a hole in the head. It’s also been hollowed out. People say the water ghost is back again.”

"Water ghost?" Wang Shen stopped when he heard this word.

"Have you forgotten? Six years ago, the Qingshui River outside the city was haunted by water ghosts. Dozens of people died one after another. Everyone died in the same way, with their stomachs and heads hollowed out.

No one dared to go into the water, and water transportation was stopped. At that time, it was our gang leader who personally took action and killed the water ghost. We also lost many good people in our gang. From then on, our gang leader's words were more effective than the county magistrate's in the county! "

"What does the water ghost look like?"

Wang Shen still has some memories of some things that happened in the past, but a lot of those memories are quite vague. He is not from this era.

"I don't know. It is said that only the gang leader has seen its appearance, and everyone else who has seen it is dead."

"Such a coincidence? This is troublesome. If there are really water ghosts, no one will dare to fish in the river. The price of fish will rise, and the daily expenses will increase. I would like to take the time to ask your cousin if he can fish more. Give us some extra money?" Wang Shen put his arm around the shoulders of his friend Chen Zheng.

"You have the nerve to say that? They collect accounts, collect debts, and look after the stalls, while we help people repair their houses, carry water, and look for children. Even if the accounts are not received, we still pour money into them.

Do you know what people in the gang call us now? They all call us the good people of the Qinghe Gang. If it weren’t for my cousin, we would have been drinking the northwest wind! "Chen Zheng said angrily.

"Is helping others the foundation of happiness? Besides, I didn't spend a few copper coins. Come on, I'll treat you to fish soup."

"Drinking fish soup again? People go to restaurants to eat meat and drink wine, so you know how to treat me to pancakes and fish soup. Fish is cheaper than rice. I want to eat roast chicken!"

"Okay, eat roast chicken, eat roast chicken."

As the two were walking, they heard a jingling bell in front of them, followed by a man's scream. Later, two men in green clothes came out of a house, clapped their hands and walked away.

"Is that a disciple from the gang?" Wang Shen looked at the backs of the two people leaving.

"Looks like he's here to collect a bill." Chen Zheng said on the side.

They were also collecting bills, but they were very arrogant, and the two of them were so polite that they seemed to be borrowing money.

Wang Shen walked to the house and took a look inside, only to see a young man collapsed on the ground, not moving much.

"He wasn't beaten to death, was he?" Chen Zheng glanced inside and said.

"Go in and have a look."

"Hey, I have to meddle in my own business again." Although Chen Zheng said this, he followed Wang Shen into the courtyard.

Wang Shen entered the small courtyard and walked up to the man. He looked at the young man lying on the ground. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. He had obviously been beaten. He put his hand on his nose to try. He still had breath. Wang Shen shouted twice and patted him. He slapped the man twice, but he didn't respond.

"He's passed out. Help him get him into the house."

The two men carried the young man into the house and put him on the bed.

The furnishings in the room are very simple. There is a simple bookshelf against the wall, with more than a dozen stacks of books on it, and some books scattered on the floor.

Wang Shen's eyes lit up when he saw those books.

"It's really rare. I didn't expect that such a family would actually have so many books." As he spoke, Wang Shen stepped forward to look through it.

"Look at the book again. When people come to collect debts, they always ask if they have money first. When you collect debts, you first ask if they have books. You..." Chen Zheng curled his lips. “You don’t understand, the book has its own golden house, the book has its own thousand bells of millet, the book has its own beauty like jade.

The "Nine Yin Sutra" originated from Taoism, the "Nine Yang Divine Skills" is hidden in the "Lenga Sutra", and the "Past Amitabha Sutra" is hidden in an ordinary martial arts scripture in the Great Zen Temple..." Wang Shen flipped through the scriptures. , while muttering to himself in a low voice, the rest of the words were whispered so that only he could hear them.

"What are you talking about?" Chen Zheng on the side shook his head helplessly after hearing this.

Wang Shen patiently read through each book. Many books on the bookcase and scattered on the floor were covered with dust. He didn't mind them being dirty, so he gently patted the dust off and continued to read.

Um? Suddenly his hand turning the book stopped.

The book in his hand was placed in the most inconspicuous corner of the bookcase, covered with dust. The name was very strange. There were only two words on it, and the word "purity" was written on it. Most of it recorded Taoist scriptures. , but the content on a few pages is a bit strange, and there are two pictures.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, maybe this is what I'm looking for. Let's borrow it for a look and then return it to him later." Wang Shen smiled and stuffed the book into his arms.

"Let's go."

"Why don't you hire a doctor for him before he wakes up?" Chen Zheng glanced at the young man who was still lying on the bed.

"Who will pay for the doctor? I don't even have the money to treat you to roast chicken."

"Hey, you can't keep your word." Chen Zheng said hurriedly.

The two people came out of this house, and Wang Shen kindly closed the door.

You still have to ask for roast chicken, man, keep your word. Just when he was taking out the coins, Wang Shen felt a little distressed.

A piece of roast chicken was not enough for two people. Their mouths were full of oil and they still couldn't finish it.

In fact, when he first came to this world and ate meat, Wang Shen was not very used to it, because it only had a simple meat flavor and a light spice flavor, and almost no salty taste. Salt in this era was very expensive and the condiments were relatively simple. .

But when you have been eating simple meals for a month, you may not even have enough rice. If you eat this roasted chicken again, you will find that, oh, it is so delicious!
  "You said you were treating me to a meal, but you ate more than me. When do you think we can eat roast chicken every day?" Chen Zheng said with emotion.

This is what people want in this era.

It is not easy for ordinary people to have a full meal every day. If you can eat one meal of meat a day, it will be enviable. If you can eat roast chicken every day, you must be from a wealthy family.

"Yes." Wang Shen smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

After treating Chen Zheng to lunch, Wang Shen returned to the drafty residence and couldn't wait to take out the book from his arms and read it carefully. He just glanced at the house and felt that this book was quite extraordinary. .

"When the sun is full and the moon is full, it reaches the limbs, flows through hundreds of meridians, breaks through the spine, doubles up, swims in the Niwan, descends from the Yigong and goes down to the Dantian, the spirit and energy stay together, and the breaths depend on each other, the road of the river cart is clear. This seems to be a book related to spiritual practice.

It’s true – where there’s a will, there’s a way! "

Wang Shen was not from this world. He came to this world more than four months ago, replaced the original owner who drowned and became a miscellaneous fish disciple of the Qinghe Gang in Wuyang County.

He was not born into a family of princes, generals and ministers, there is no bloody plot about breaking off the engagement at the beginning, there is no hidden grandfather’s ring, and there is no sign-in system.

Do you want to talk about plug-ins? Yes, there is just a panel with a line on it - Where there is a will, there is a way.

At first, he didn't understand the function of this line of note, but as time went by, he gradually came to understand it.

That is, as long as he wants to do something and persists in doing it with his heart, he will most likely be able to do it. Of course, this thing must be reliable and not a daydream of "flying into the sky and shoulder to shoulder with the sun".

For example, when he first wanted to read and write, he never thought about becoming a scholar. He knew that in order to fully integrate into a world, mastering the language and characters of this world is the foundation.

The most important thing he has done in the past two months is to find ways to go to the county school to learn reading and literacy. Soon he could read and write without any problem.

In addition, he set aside at least an hour every day to practice martial arts. About three months ago, there was another line of words on the panel.
