My strength increases by 100 pounds every day

Jiang Shi took the banknote from the other party's hand and stuffed it into his arms without ceremony.

"May I ask the hero's surname? Who is his master? I am truly lucky to meet the hero today. I hope I can have a good relationship with him!"

Lawrence Lu raised his hands and said.

Just when Jiang Shi was about to refuse, he suddenly paused, thought about it carefully, and said: "Xia Jiang Shi is not a strong man, he is just a nobody, he comes from... from the Water Curtain Cave in Huaguo Mountain!"

"Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave?"

Lu Chengtian was suspicious, but he had never heard of this name.

The two burly men beside him also looked at each other and frowned.

Could it be that they are not from the area near them?

They had heard of all the major Jianghu sects in the four nearby states, Fengzhou, Huangzhou, Ruzhou, and Qingzhou, but they had never heard of the Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave.

"I am deeply impressed by the strong man's martial arts. I wonder if he has time, so I am willing to host a banquet in his honor."

Lu Chengtian continued to say while cupping his hands.

"There is no need for hospitality. We all met by chance, so we say goodbye!"

Jiang Shi waved his hand and walked out.

"Wait a minute, brave man. I am willing to offer you ten strength pills every month to hire a brave man. Please stay with me. In addition, I will give you two hundred taels of silver every month. What do you think, brave man?"

Lu Chengtian quickly spoke again.

Jiang Shi was shocked, paused in his steps, and looked back.

Good guy!

A rich second generation?

But after thinking about it carefully, he refused directly.

"Forget it, I'm used to wandering around, and I'm not used to listening to others' orders."

After experiencing Yang Hongtian's incident, he felt very defensive in his heart and was unwilling to continue to rely on others.

At this moment, you should find a place with abundant resources as soon as possible, live in seclusion, wait for three to five years, and you will probably be invincible.

He asked: "By the way, is there a place selling medicinal materials nearby?"

"Seller of medicinal materials? The strong man wants medicinal materials?"

Lu Chengtian spoke quickly and said: "I don't know what type the strong man needs. I also have some at home, and I am willing to give them to the strong man..."

"No, I have money of my own and am going to buy some things for martial arts practice. Just tell me where to buy them."

Jiang Shi refused again.

A look of deep regret appeared on Lu Chengtian's face, and he sighed: "Well, if you want to buy some for martial arts, you can go to Caishen Town in Fengzhou to have a look. It is backed by mountains and is a famous source of medicinal materials. But now that the world is in chaos, the medicinal materials used for martial arts in various places are basically monopolized by the military. You can only encounter them in Caishen Town, but I don’t know if they can be purchased specifically."

"Monopolized by the military?"

Jiang Shi frowned.

"Yes, and in today's world of disputes, the military has absolute strength, and the generals in various places have the ambition to unify the world. Therefore, the medicinal materials used in medicinal baths, as well as the medicinal materials refined into Jin Dan and Recovery Pill are extremely strictly controlled. Generally, It’s hard to buy it privately anymore.”

Trouble.

Jiang Shi frowned.

The military actually controls these things!

This is tantamount to monopolizing power.

"How to get to Caishen Town?"

Jiang Shi asked.

Lu Chengtian immediately pointed out to Jiang Shi.

After Jiang Shi figured it out, he immediately strode out, mounted a group of fast horses again, and drove away directly.

"What a pity. If this person can be summoned to our [Yi Ming Army], our lord will definitely gain another unparalleled general!"

A burly man looked at Jiang Shi and said regretfully.

"good!"

Lu Chengtian's heart surged and he said, "However, maybe we have a chance to meet again."

He didn't wait any longer, immediately got on his horse and began to lead people away quickly.

···

far away.

As Jiang Shi left, he looked at the three thousand taels of silver notes in his hand.

This was the first time in his previous life that he had received so much money, which made him feel somewhat unreal.

"That man's identity is very extraordinary, absolutely extraordinary."

Throwing out three thousand taels of silver without blinking an eye, this kind of courage is really amazing.

If he hadn't experienced what happened to Yang Hongtian, maybe he would have been really impressed by the other party's conditions.

But for now, let’s wait and see.

Suddenly, he felt a tingling sensation in his body again, and immediately opened the panel to take a look.

I saw that the reputation value column increased by 40 points again, reaching 5160 points.

This should be the reward for what he just did.

"drive!"

Jiang Shi urged his war horses to leave quickly.

···

The other direction.

A group of Jianghu people fled back in embarrassment, each with injuries, and quickly gathered in a town.

A man wearing a purple robe, with fair face and three long beards appeared in the town. He frowned when he saw everyone returning in embarrassment.

"You didn't kidnap Lu Chengtian?"

"Reporting to Head Zhao, something happened. We met a gangster in the middle. He killed us with just a few moves. Even Ouyang Tian died. That guy was so weird. So many people came together, but we couldn't do anything to him. Not even a cent!”

One of the Jianghu people turned pale and said.

"What? What's his name?"

The purple-robed man's face darkened.

"I don't know. I just know that he is extremely powerful. He holds a thick mace and is invincible to anyone. By the way, he also looks extremely weird. He is thin and inconspicuous and has a sickly look on his face."

The person in the world said.

"Damn it, you really missed the master's important task!"

The man in purple robe had a gloomy expression.

"Master Zhao, what should we do next?"

The charlatan asked carefully.

"What else can we do? Go back and report to the lord first."

The man in purple robe said in a low voice.

"good!"

A group of people had to leave the place quickly.

···

Three days later.

Jiang Shi ran all the way, passing through large areas of desolate land, and finally arrived at the ginseng-picking town that Lu Chengtian mentioned.

However, when he arrived at this small town, he suddenly discovered that the entire town had long become extremely desolate, with traces of fire burning everywhere.

Pieces of buildings were burned to the point where only their skeletons were left.

There were many corpses lying strewn on the street, some of which seemed to have been chewed by wild wolves. They looked horrible, and a pungent smell filled the entire town.

"Caishen Town was destroyed?"

Jiang Shi's face was gloomy, and he drove his horse past to observe.

This world is too chaotic.

Where can I find peace?

Pat, pat, pat...

Horse hooves passed by, and there were waves of deep sounds.

Jiang Shi looked carefully and found that some buildings were not completely burned by the fire. Judging from the remaining current situation, these buildings should have been deliberately looted before they were burned by the fire. Many tables, chairs and benches were thrown everywhere. All.

Even the counter was knocked down.

"I probably encountered bandits. Damn it, is it so difficult for me to find a place to buy some medicinal materials?"

Jiang Shi whispered.

While observing, he suddenly heard a small sound, rustling. He looked up and saw a few men in the corner of a desolate building, turning around and running away in a hurry towards the distance.

"who?"

He directly urged the war horse and quickly approached,

Seeing the group of men fleeing at a faster speed, he pulled out a long knife from the package and threw it directly forward.

call!

Phew!

The whole long sword rushed past, so fast that it was almost impossible to see clearly. It rushed out more than ten meters away and passed by a man.

The man was so frightened that he screamed on the spot and quickly squatted down with his head in his hands.

The other men also looked shocked and stopped one after another.

"Spare your life!"

"Misunderstand!"

"We didn't see anything!"

The group of men spoke quickly.

"drive!"

Jiang Shi urged his war horse and quickly approached. He frowned and said, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
