"We martial arts practitioners, ordinary people can only strengthen their bodies and increase their fighting abilities by practicing martial arts. Only some of them are talented and willing to study hard can be able to penetrate hundreds of pounds, which can cause their own qi and blood to boil, and enter the ranks of martial artists in the Qi and Blood Realm."

"But the Qi and Blood Realm is divided into three levels. As long as you have talent and are willing to study hard and practice hard, most people can still achieve it. However, it is difficult for one out of ten people to reach the second Qi and Blood Boil. If you can reach the third Qi and Blood Boil before the age of twenty-five, it is difficult for one out of a hundred martial arts practitioners to reach the second Qi and Blood Boil!"

"After the age of twenty-five, the human body's qi and blood will begin to decline. Therefore, if you cannot go further before this age and practice internal strength, then martial arts cultivation will be difficult to survive for the rest of your life, and it will even deteriorate with age."

This passage was said by Li Tong, the owner of the county town’s “Tiger Martial Arts Hall” when Wang Cheng first learned the "Tiger Fist".

Wang Cheng has seen how powerful a martial artist is from the original owner's memory.

Captain Du of the county government office is a martial artist in Qi and Blood Realm, and he is a powerful warrior who has experienced three boiling blood and blood, just like Li Tong, the owner of the "Tiger Martial Arts Hall".

While chasing a murderer who was wandering to Dantu County, he once punched the murderer's head, and even smashed the hardest skull of the human body!

Even those warriors in the "Tiger Martial Arts Hall" who have experienced a boiling blood can easily lift the stone lock of more than 150 kilograms and lift it over their heads, and then walk steadily for a hundred steps and gently lower it.

Unfortunately, the original owner's qualifications for martial arts were not very good. He has not learned the Tiger Boxing for three years. According to the rules of the martial arts school, those who have not learned boxing for two years must leave the martial arts school.

A year ago, the original owner's father saw that the original owner was unable to practice martial arts and had nothing to do, so he took out half of his savings and handed over to the county government office to Captain Du, who planned to get the constable job for the original owner after he withdrew from the martial arts hall.

Over the past year, the original owner has been busy getting familiar with the errand of a constable with his father, and has spent much less time practicing martial arts, so that "Tiger Fist" has not yet been introduced.

According to the information obtained by Wang Cheng from the original owner's memory, if the "Tiger Fist" can be officially introduced, it will have the opportunity to boil the human body's qi and blood, allowing those who practice martial arts to master the power of qi and blood and become a qi and blood realm warrior.

During the half month of recuperation at home, when he sorted out the original owner's memory, he had already tried to practice "Tiger Fist" according to the way he remembered.

It was just because he lacked the help of various auxiliary and supporting items in the martial arts hall that he worked hard for more than two months before he advanced the progress from 95% to 99%.

If Wang Cheng was not named on a business trip by Captain Du today, if Wang Cheng practiced hard for a few more days, he would definitely be able to officially introduce the practice of "Tiger Boxing".

But now, we can only get started after he comes back from this trip.

Half an hour passed quickly.

When Wang Cheng rushed to the west gate to gather, in addition to the twenty-five blue-clothed constables who were named, there were fifty "white soldiers" wearing linen and gray clothes.

The so-called "white vassal" is the yamen runners who do not have formal establishments in the yamen. These people are usually held by various idle people in the city. When handling cases, they will follow the constable to make a strong voice and do some rough work.

"White Slave" has no salary. The yamen even only cares about their food when handling cases, and occasionally rewards some copper coins for them as rewards.

The advantage of being a "white servant" in the county government is probably that you can obtain some gray income when you patrol the streets and handle cases with the constable.

Oh, and the linen and gray clothes they are now distributed in the yamen, once every three years.

"Okay, since everyone has arrived, let's go."

Captain Du appeared at the gate of Xicheng almost at the time point.

He rode a chestnut horse out of the city gate, waved to the blue-clothed constable and gray-clothed yamen runners gathered outside the city, and took the lead in leading the way in front.

Dantu County is more than 40 miles away from Dasang Township where the accident happened, and the road outside the township is not smooth at all, because it rained a spring rain the day before yesterday, and there are still many places on the road with mud and water.

Wang Cheng and others set out from the county town at noon and walked for nearly three hours before reaching the township of Dasang Township before dusk.

At this time, they were tired and hungry, and they just wanted to find a place to rest first, have a full meal and have a good sleep.

Fortunately, Captain Du is very experienced in this kind of thing. He rushed to Dasang Township more than an hour in advance and asked the Lizheng of Dasang Township to arrange for the villagers to prepare meals and wait for them, and even burned hot water to burn their feet.

After Wang Cheng and others had enough food and drink, it was already dark, so the case handling matters could only wait tomorrow.

The next day, the sky was dark, and Wang Cheng and others were awakened by Captain Du. After a simple wash, they all went to Xiaochen Village, where the accident occurred more than ten miles away, accompanied by Lixu in Dasang Township.

"According to the rules, people who died suddenly were carried back to the charity village in the village to park, but this time there were too many people who died in Xiaochen Village. In addition, those people died miserably and were also killed by some foolish men and women. There were few people who dared to carry them, so they could only park in the village first."

On the dirt road leading to Xiaochen Village, Lixu from Dasang Township was leading the way with a few bold villagers, while explaining the whole story with Captain Du who was riding on his horse.

According to the official system of the Tang Dynasty, Lixu was responsible for the public security and public affairs of townships and assisting county officials to supervise murder cases. It was Lixu's responsibility.

Wang Cheng walked in front of the team. After hearing the word "ghost", he also moved his mind and couldn't help but feel energetic.

"The country has not been peaceful recently. A while ago, there were strong bandits and strong men plundering and killing people everywhere, and there were even white lotus demons spreading rumors and confusing the countryside. Although the murder case in Xiaochen Village can be seen once in ten years, this kind of vicious murder case has occurred in the past. The saying of ghosts is not credible!"

Captain Du on the horse's back shook his head slightly, not neglecting the fact that ghosts harmed people mentioned in the words of Li Xu.

When the inner servant heard this, he seemed to find that his words were inappropriate. He quickly coughed lightly and smiled and said with a compliment: "Hehe, I think the saying of ghosts is not credible. Captain Du, you have a reputation as a god to judge cases and are deeply trusted by several county magistrates. Since you are led by yourself this time, the murderer will definitely have nowhere to hide!"

Captain Du often heard such compliments, and was already immune, but he replied indifferently: "The inner wife is too proud, and Du is ashamed."

After saying something, I stopped talking.

More than ten miles away, Wang Cheng and others set out at six o'clock in the morning, and arrived outside Xiaochen Village after halfway through Chen hour.

The place where Xiaochen Village is located is surrounded by mountains and rivers. The farmers in the village mainly live in a flat valley at the foot of the mountain. A mountain stream about half a meter wide flows down the mountain, raising nearly a thousand people in several nearby villages.

Because the forest near Xiaochen Village belongs to the Wusong Mountains, a big mountain in Dantu County, the valley where the mountain village is located is still covered by thin mountain fog. From a distance, you can only vaguely see the outline of the countryside thatched house inside.

"Strange, it's already half past Chen, why haven't the villagers of Xiaochen Village come out to work? Are there people dead in the village and no one who lives have to eat?"

Wang Cheng was looking at the village far away, trying to see the situation inside through the mist, and then he heard Liu Fei beside him express his doubts in his heart in his usual frivolous tone with his strange voice.

Um?

Liu Fei may be the speaker, but when Wang Cheng and Captain Du heard this, their faces were fixed and they felt something was wrong.

"This may be because after I found that there were too many deaths yesterday, the people in Xiaochen Village didn't dare to live in the village anymore, so I went to the houses of relatives and friends in the surrounding villages to stay."

Facing Captain Du's inquiring gaze, Li Xu thought about it and whispered his opinion.

"I said, Lord Lixu, you are a little incompetent here. Shouldn't you investigate this kind of thing first? Is there so many people who die? You, the Lixu who is responsible for public security and public affairs in a village, have no responsibility? Can't you rely on people in our county government to do anything?"

Liu Fei looked at Li Xu in dissatisfaction and said, "There are many blaming words in his words."

According to the official system of the Tang Dynasty, the status of the clerks is undoubtedly higher than that of the constable, but the constable is a public official in the county government office. The clerks in Dasang Township cannot control him, so Liu Fei naturally is not afraid of offending the clerks such words.

"Liu Fei must not be rude."

Captain Du whispered accuser of his subordinates, and then said to Lixu who looked bad: "Lord Lixu has a lot, so you don't need to be as familiar with this kid. Since the people from Xiaochen Village may have been living in other villages for a while, Lixu will send someone to call them back. The Captain will ask them for details of the case later."

When the inner-senior saw Captain Du’s words, his face looked a little better. He nodded and responded: “What Captain Du said is reasonable. Now let’s go to the nearby village with others to call people.”

After saying that, he and the villagers he brought went to the nearby village separately.

"Okay, everyone is excited, let's go to the village to check the situation."

After seeing the Lixu leaving with the villagers, Captain Du shouted loudly to the county officials who brought him and slowly drove towards the village covered in mist.

At this time, Wang Cheng pulled Liu Fei beside him and leaned into his ear and whispered: "I think this situation seems to be something wrong. Liu Fei, you guys and I will follow Du Boer and don't leave. If something happens, Du Boer will definitely be the safest around him."

When he said this, his expression was extremely serious.

Seeing this, Liu Fei pondered for a moment, then put away his frivolity, nodded slightly and replied: "I understand, I will follow you closely with Brother Cheng."
