I borrowed my brain from the Emperor

Chapter 38 Harvest
  three days later.

A remote small village with low and old mud houses.

The village is not far from Qingya County. When Chen Luo approached Old Man Shangtian that day, he asked him to send him here. After receiving the money, Mr. Tian kept his promise and spent a day and a half dragging the unconscious man out of the mountain.

After staying in the small village for two days and confirming that Chen Luo was in no danger, the four of them set off home.

Tian Daniu's job was gone this time, and his boss didn't know if he was still alive. He had to go back and find another way to make a living. The same goes for brothers Fang Cun and Fang Shan, who have to support their families. Old man Tian is also preparing to go back. He has been out for several days longer than expected. He is afraid that his wife will be worried.

After a few words of apology, Chen Laosan stood up and escorted them out of the village.

"Guys, thank you!"

Chen Laosan solemnly bowed to the four of them.

"You're welcome, we just use money to do things."

Old Man Tian grinned, revealing his yellow teeth.

This old man looked sloppy, but he kept his promises. This time he did Chen Luo a big favor.

"Business is business, kindness is kindness."

While talking, Chen Laosan took out four money bags that he had prepared long ago and gave them to four people respectively. The amount of money is not large, but it is definitely enough for the four old men Tian.

If you can repay a favor with money, use money to repay it.

Now Chen Laosan is not short of money. With the black money Chen Luo looted, he is very rich.

After another round of politeness, the two parties parted ways and said goodbye.

"how do you feel?"

Back in the village, Chen Laosan opened the door. Looking at Chen Luo who was sitting on the bed with his eyes closed and concentrating, he asked.

Chen Luo woke up in the morning, and it was after seeing him awake that Old Man Tian and others left. Firstly, it was to confirm Chen Luo's safety, and secondly, he also wanted to see if Chen Laosan was his relative, so as to avoid sending him to the wrong place and causing trouble.

This is also the principle of Old Man Tian's life. You can be greedy for petty gains, but you must not do anything that is harmful to your heart.

"Much better. Everyone sent away?"

Chen Luo didn't tell his third uncle in detail. His experience this time was a bit mysterious, and it would be bad to talk too much about it. If he meets any martial arts master who can search for souls, he might bring unnecessary danger to the third uncle.

"Let's go. I gave you five hundred taels. Each of the three young men received a hundred taels. The old man gave me an extra hundred taels."

Chen Laosan pulled up a small stool and sat down next to him. He knocked the cigarette pot in his hand twice on the wall, leaving a black mark.

His hobbies are so tacky.

Find widows in alleys and smoke cigarettes in front of their homes.

In the past, when he had no money, he still had to bury corpses to make money, but now that Chen Luo gave him a large stack of banknotes, he stopped doing the job of burying corpses. Anyway, Qingya County doesn't know who he is anymore, so he just quits to become a leisurely gentleman.

"The favor I owe is repaid."

"That's good."

Chen Luo nodded. Chen Laosan had already greeted him about sending money.

"I shouldn't have taken you to practice martial arts in the first place." Chen Laosan picked up the cigarette pot and took a sip. After a long while, he choked out a sentence.

This time Chen Luo was dragged back in a bullock cart, which almost scared him to death.

After burying the corpses of Jianghu people for most of his life, he has seen too many dead people. Most of these people are masters who have practiced martial arts. Compared with these people, Chen Luo is still too young.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

But even so, Chen Laosan did not dare to take people back to the village.

I am just afraid that the elders in the village will be worried.

Chen Luo's parents are also old, and there is a little girl at home. It is better to have less to worry about than to have more to worry about.

"No, I am very grateful to my third uncle for helping me change my destiny."

Chen Luo shook his head, not agreeing with Chen Laosan's concept. Practicing martial arts is a very important starting point for him. Ma Laizi's guidance helped him avoid many detours. Otherwise, even if he could 'borrow his brain' to practice, he would have to waste a lot of time before he could embark on the real path of practice.

If that node is missed, the subsequent crisis in Qingya County may not be able to be overcome, let alone seize the opportunity to cultivate immortality.

"Have a good rest and call me if you need anything."

After smoking a cigarette, Chen Laosan got up and went out.

Chen Luo was still in the recovery stage, and the doctor wanted to sleep more, so it was not good for him to disturb him too much.

Watching his third uncle's leaving figure, Chen Luo slowly closed his eyes on the bed.

This experience was so dangerous that he almost never came back. The light blue energy that killed Old Dao Li Chen has always remained in his body, neither dissipating nor integrating.

Under the influence of this force, his consciousness and body always felt discordant. He tried to mobilize this energy, but without the power bonus of the blue gem, neither the jade book nor the energy in his body paid any attention to him.

Fortunately, the physical injuries have basically recovered.

The recovery ability of a Bone Forging Realm warrior is indeed powerful. If an ordinary person were to suffer such a serious injury, he would have to lie in bed for at least half a year before he could get off the ground.

"The body's assimilation rate is very slow, and this power can only be absorbed by the royal brain. Even if I use the royal brain to practice every day, I can only digest a little. Any more will be unbearable."

Chen Luo summarized the results of these two days of practicing using the royal brain.

His so-called mobilization was just a repetition of the process when Jade Book exploded, using the inner energy of the Black Tiger Fist.

This method has a very low conversion rate and is very laborious to call.

It feels like people pulling a cart.

Not matching.

But now he has no choice but to settle for now. Fortunately, the energy level of blue energy is very high. Even if it is only a small trace, Chen Luo's strength has undergone earth-shaking changes. At the very least, ordinary grandmasters were no longer invincible enemies to him.

“I just don’t know what ‘Xianwen’ actually represents.”

Chen Luo recalled what Old Taoist Li Chen said before his death.

The old Taoist priest must know something, but it's a pity that he is already dead. But even if he were alive, the old Taoist priest would definitely not tell him, and would probably still want to kill him and reap the benefits.

He reached out and touched the jade slip on his chest. The thing was still in his arms. It looked ordinary on weekdays. Only when Chen Luo used light blue energy, it would give it a little warmth. Other than that, there is nothing unusual.

After putting the jade slips away again, Chen Luo closed his eyes and slowly entered his dream.

External brains began to appear one after another, and began to try to digest the light blue energy in their own way. Throughout the night, more than a hundred brains tried each one, but the result was still the same as before. Only the royal brain succeeded.

In this way, half a month passed in a flash.

Half a month later, Chen Luo was finally able to go out, and the injuries on the surface of his body had almost recovered.

The feeling of disharmony still existed, but it no longer affected his actions.

After talking to his third uncle, he went out.

On his first day out, Chen Luo went directly to the county to have a good meal, including big fish and meat, and everything he could eat. Lying in bed these days, listening to the doctor's orders and eating light meals every day, his mouth almost turned pale.

The meal lasted until noon before Chen Luo got up and left.

After leaving the restaurant, Chen Luo first went to the county government office.

The government office of Qingya County, which has gone through disasters, has now changed its owner, and the military attache stationed there has also changed. The original Lieutenant Zhu was transferred to someone unknown, and all the new arrivals had unfamiliar faces.

"There is still fighting over there in Luoxia Valley. I heard that a gold mine has been discovered."

“We don’t have enough people to bury corpses, and we don’t know if there will be any changes in the future.”

The sounds of several government servants chatting came to my ears.

Chen Luo looked back and turned to another street.

He did not sneak into the county government office rashly. After the last incident, the people living in the county government office must be experts. Counting the time, Prince Ning's people should also be here. Sneaking into the county government office at this time is no different from delivering goods to your door.
