Chapter 8 adds more points, two cracking sounds from the bones.
Unless that kid is hiding something from him.
And this matter is related to him and Guo Ziming.
Fang Shuwen immediately understood.
"There's something else suspicious: that kid actually managed to pull out ten silver dollars to deal with me!"
Fang Shuwen leaned against the wall of the alley, his mind racing.
Ten silver dollars.
This is no small amount.
An ordinary family's monthly expenses would only amount to three to five silver dollars.
Although Liu Mang was Guo Ziming's follower, he received a few coins as a reward from Guo Ziming every month.
But it's absolutely impossible for someone to just casually pull out ten silver dollars to hire someone to hurt another person.
unless.
This money never belonged to Liu Mang in the first place.
A cold smile curled at the corner of Fang Shuwen's mouth.
He didn't rush to leave the tavern.
Instead, he greeted the counter, ordered a plate of fennel beans, ate two slowly, and kept glancing at the table in the corner.
Liu Mang and the man drank two more bowls of yellow wine.
Soon, the pot of yellow wine was empty.
Neither of them ordered another drink.
They left the tavern one after the other, one going left and the other right, and then they went their separate ways.
Fang Shuwen waited a while longer, making sure no one was paying attention to him, before carrying the wine jug and roast chicken out the door.
He did not return directly to the Zhao residence.
Instead, they turned into a narrow alley next to the tavern.
The alley was deep, with high walls on both sides and only a sliver of sky overhead.
Night had completely fallen, and the alley was pitch black, with only a few dim yellow lights shining from the distant street.
Fang Shuwen walked to the middle of the alley, looked around, and made sure no one was there.
He leaned against a wall sheltered from the wind and took the strange jade out of his bag.
This piece of strange jade is of much better quality, and it gleams with a faint, cold light in my palm.
"I wonder how many skill points I can extract from this."
He took a deep breath and gripped the strange jade tightly with both hands.
The cool touch seeped into my palm, like holding a stone that had just been pulled out of a deep well.
[Foreign energy detected. Absorb?]
Fang Shuwen's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly thought of something: "Absorb!"
The light curtain rippled outwards like waves on water.
The two strange jade pieces in his palms simultaneously emitted a faint "crackling" sound, like the sound of ice cracking.
Fang Shuwen looked down and saw fine cracks appearing on the surface of the strange jade, with a pale green fluorescent light shining through them.
The fluorescent light crawled up his palm and up his arm like tiny snakes, burrowing under his skin.
moment,
The mysterious jade shattered into powder.
The light screen in front of me flickered again.
[Alien energy absorption complete.]
[Gained Skill Points: 5]
five!
Five o'clock exactly!
Fang Shuwen couldn't help but gasp.
Yesterday's piece of miscellaneous jade only received a small amount, but today's piece received a whopping five points.
However, perhaps some of the piece from yesterday was damaged during the process of activating the cheat code.
but,
Similarly, this one is of even better quality.
Because when Grandpa Zheng lost the game, his face clearly showed even more pain.
He took a deep breath, steadied himself, and brought up the martial arts panel again.
Name: Fang Shuwen
Attack: 3; Defense: 3; Health: 2; Spirit: 2
[Exercise: First Set of Fitness Boxing (Beginner)]
Special effects: None
Skill Points: 5
Five skill points.
Meanwhile, on the panel.
Plus signs appeared after the four-dimensional attributes and after the Bodybuilding Fist.
Fang Shuwen stared at the plus sign on the panel, his mind racing with calculations.
I immediately understood.
Skill points can not only increase the level of your skills, but also directly improve your four main attributes.
The last time, no plus sign appeared after the four-dimensional attributes, probably because I didn't have enough skill points.
This time, I have five skill points.
It's enough to directly improve, so a plus sign also appears after the four-dimensional attributes.
Fang Shuwen thought for a moment, then focused his attention on the plus sign following the four-dimensional attributes.
Immediately, a message arrived.
"It takes five skill points to increase one of the four main attributes?"
Fang Shuwen frowned slightly.
Five points increase one attribute, and two attribute points require ten skill points.
Compared to directly improving one's cultivation technique, this seems like a very poor deal.
After all, the previous upgrade to the Bodybuilding Fist increased his attributes by two points, but only used one skill point.
Therefore, the safest course of action is to continue improving one's skills.
The thought fell on the plus sign after "fitness boxing".
This upgrade also requires five points.
Should we upgrade the "First Set of Fitness Boxing" exercise?
Yes.
[Consuming 5 skill points, skill upgrade in progress...]
This time it was more intense than the last, as if someone had detonated a bomb inside him.
The heat surged up the spine and over the top of the head.
It fell down from the front again, completing a full cycle inside the body.
Muscles, bones, tendons—every inch of them was trembling violently.
Fang Shuwen groaned as his back slammed against the wall, veins bulging on his forehead.
He could feel his body changing.
It wasn't a gradual, subtle change, but a violent, tearing reshaping.
Muscle fibers break and then regrow.
The bones were making a cracking sound, like firecrackers.
He counted silently in his mind.
A sound.
Two sounds.
After two sharp sounds, the crackling stopped.
There is no third tone.
Two cracking sounds were heard.
We're one step closer to achieving the Mingjin level!
The text on the panel flickered.
[First Set of Fitness Exercises (Proficient)]
The technique indeed advanced further.
Furthermore, the four-dimensional attributes also changed accordingly.
【攻击：3→4；防御：3→4；生命：2→2；精神：2→2】
This time, just like last time, both attack and defense will be increased by one point.
Collapse the panel.
Fang Shuwen was panting heavily, his forehead covered in sweat.
He could feel that his strength was at least twice as great as before.
The change was so obvious that he felt a sense of unreality as he stood there.
He looked down at his hands.
His palms were a size larger than before, his knuckles were thick and strong, and the muscles at the base of his thumb were bulging, a characteristic that only someone who had practiced martial arts for many years would have.
He clenched his fist.
Click, click!
The joints made a crisp, continuous, and powerful sound.
He could clearly feel that every time he clenched his fist, the muscle fibers from his fingertips to his wrist, from his forearm to his upper arm, were working together perfectly.
The feeling was like the body transforming from a rusty iron lock into a sophisticated machine.
Every part fits perfectly, and every operation is incredibly smooth.
"I've become much stronger."
Fang Shuwen murmured to himself, his gaze falling on a scattered blue brick at his feet.
This brick is bigger than the previous one, weighing at least seven or eight pounds.
He bent down to pick it up, holding the brick with one hand, without using any technique, just holding it firmly.
The surface of the blue bricks began to crumble.
First, fine powder fell through the gaps between my fingers, and then cracks appeared on the surface of the brick.
Click!
The blue brick cracked into several pieces in his hands.
Fang Shuwen released his grip, and the broken bricks fell to the ground with a dull thud.
"His single-arm strength is at least 250 pounds."
He made a rough estimate, and a feeling he couldn't quite put into words welled up inside him.
This is just pure power.
If you add the power generation techniques learned after mastering Jian Ti Quan, plus the potential energy brought about by spinal twisting and center of gravity sinking.
The impact of a single punch could probably kill even someone weighing 700 or 800 pounds.
Two cracking sounds echoed, and he was just one step away from achieving the Ming Jin level.
This seemingly small step is actually a world of difference.
Even so, the two cracking sounds from the bones were enough to earn him the title of an elite disciple in any martial arts school in Xikou County.
At this point, even the major gangs dare not offend them easily.
Therefore,
Even if you cripple the thug and the thug he hired, you don't need to fear retaliation.
"So, now it's time to go and get those two back!"
