Chapter 45 I Believe In You

"Haha, you said it so easily, as if you had practiced?"

"Of course I have practiced." Wang Shen said with a smile.

"What, have you mastered Qi?" Chen Zheng was stunned after hearing this, his arm holding the wine bowl hanging in the air.

"Of course, I'll teach you." Wang Shen nodded.

"Okay, okay!" Chen Zheng said hurriedly.

"Follow me and practice, inhale and exhale, your body will be like floating clouds, unstained by the worldly world, and your air will be like water."

Chen Zheng on the side really started practicing with Wang Shen. After a while, Chen Zheng took a sip of wine and looked at Wang Shen with strange eyes.

"You have to believe me. This should be possible. It will take effect after you practice for a while."

"I believe you, how could you possibly figure this out on your own!" Chen Zheng said angrily.

"Okay, really."

Hey, Chen Zheng sighed, and then took a sip of fish soup.

"Forget it, when I learn it, I will teach you. You don't have to figure it out at home. Don't figure out the technique and figure out other things by then."

Wang Shen didn't explain anything after hearing this.

All in all, this fish soup is still delicious.

Two days later, when Wang Shen went shopping in Lanhe County, he heard rumors that Chen Zheng had been assassinated. He hurried to Chen Zheng's residence and found that Chen was fine and drinking tea leisurely in the house.

"I arranged for someone to spread the news. I originally hoped to catch the killer, but I didn't expect you to come first." Chen Zheng said with a smile.

"It's okay." Wang Shen said.

"Master sent me a letter, telling me not to worry too much. This matter will be resolved soon."

Wang Shen took several books with him when he left Chen Zheng's residence. On the way back, he discovered that he was being followed.

I slowly returned home along the way. As soon as I entered the house, a man climbed over the wall and entered the yard. Then he came to the outside of the house against the wall and looked into the house through the window.

"Hey, why is there no one?"

"What are you looking for?"

A voice suddenly sounded in the man's ears, and the hair on his body suddenly stood up in fear.

Just as he was about to draw the sword, he felt numbness in his right arm, then pain, and he couldn't use his whole arm. When he turned around, he saw a person standing next to him. The next moment, the person disappeared.

"What about people?"

He looked around hurriedly, and when he saw the man again, the other arm was also useless.

"You, who are you?" There was a look of horror on the man's face.

"You followed me all the way and asked me who I am and who you are?"

Wang Shen didn't even use any punishment before this man was killed. It turns out that he was the killer who came to kill Chen Zheng after receiving a reward.

When I saw Wang Shen coming out of Chen Zheng's residence, I wanted to inquire about Chen Zheng from him and confirm whether the other party was really assassinated and injured.

So he followed along all the way, but unexpectedly he encountered a tough fight and got himself into it.

"You're here to kill someone with your little ability?" Wang Shen said with a smile.

The killer was speechless. At this point, what else could he say?

This man Wang Shen was eventually handed over to Chen Zheng, and there was no use staying with him. In the following days, Wang Shen practiced alone at home.

When he was practicing the skills on the plum blossom pile, he started to practice with weights. For this reason, he went to the blacksmith shop and asked the blacksmith to find a way to make a set of plate armor weighing at least a hundred kilograms to wear on his body.

Wang Shen's strange request made the blacksmith in the blacksmith shop stunned for a while. How can anyone build such a thing? Let's say it's armor. It's too inconvenient to wear on the body. The weight alone is enough for ordinary people to drink a pot.

However, Wang Shen was very happy with the money, so he just built it as requested.

In addition to practicing in the yard, he also found a secluded place in the woods outside to practice.

The rain this summer was much more abundant than in previous years, and it rained heavily every ten days or so.

The water in Qinghe River is also more turbulent than in previous years.

On this day, Wang Shen was practicing Qi on the mountain when he saw a awning boat in the Qinghe River going down the upper reaches of the river.

While walking in the middle of the river, I suddenly heard someone on the boat shouting in a panic, as if something terrible had happened. Then I saw the boat sinking rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

A man on the boat saw that something was wrong, so he jumped directly from the boat into the Qinghe River and swam towards the shore. Not long after swimming out, he screamed again, paddled hard with both hands in the river, and then suddenly sank into the river.

A pool of blood floated on the river, which was quickly diluted by the water.

Wang Shen stared at the river and suddenly saw a human head floating on the river, but the head was green and black.

"What is that, a water ghost?"

The blue-black head only appeared for a moment and then sank into the water and disappeared.

Soon, the awning boat also sank into the Daoqing River.

Not long after, the river surface returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

"So the monster in the river sank the boat?"

In the following days, several more boats sank in the river for no apparent reason, and the people on the boats also sank into the river, and no one came ashore alive.

When Wang Shen was buying fish in the village, he heard people in the village talking about this matter.

"Is there a monster in the river?"

"What a monster, it just rained too much these past two days and the water flowed too fast."

"I heard someone saw water monkeys in the water!"

"Water Monkey?!"

When the people in the village heard this name, their expressions changed.

"Water monkey, isn't that a water ghost?" Wang Shen thought to himself. He chatted with the people in the village and asked about the water ghost.

Like Wuyang County, there are also rumors about water ghosts here. It is said that the water ghost looks like a monkey, is covered in blue and black, is as dexterous as a fish in the water, but is very strong. It can dig through the bottom of a ship and sink the entire ship into the river.

It's just that this water ghost hasn't appeared for several years.

The appearance of this water ghost not only caused the death of some innocent people, but also made people in nearby villages afraid to go into the river. If they did not dare to go into the river, then naturally the fish would be gone? The delicious fish soup is gone, and the high-quality protein source is gone!
  "This water ghost really deserves to die! It's just a cause for trouble in Wuyang County, why did it come to Lanhe County again? Do you want to find a way to catch it and kill it!?" Wang Shen suddenly had the idea to get rid of this water ghost. The idea of ​​a water ghost.

Mainly because it delayed him from drinking fish soup!
  He has never done anything like catching water ghosts, but he knows how to fish.

Water ghosts are also aquatic creatures. They need to eat and can be caught if there is bait.

"You can try."

He first tried to collect some information about the water ghost, such as what it likes to eat, when it usually appears, and what are the signs before it appears.
