Beiyin Great Sage

Breakthrough (42/100)

(43/100)

…

With the continuous impact of the barrier-breaking method, the warm breath lingered in his mind, and his consciousness became drowsy, relying solely on instinct. It took a long time to recover.

Zhou Yi's heart trembled and he hurriedly looked at the Consciousness Sea Light Screen.

Clearance (60/100)

Judging from the situation outside the house, not much time should have passed, but the progress has actually reached sixty, which is comparable to more than half a month of hard work.

Moreover, although I was mentally exhausted and my hands and feet were sore, I did not feel the fatigue or collapse that was common after practicing the Chongguan method in the past.

You can still faintly feel the residual power of the medicine in your body.

That is to say...

When you recover tomorrow, can you practice again?

Although he failed to succeed in one fell swoop, this effect was a great joy to Zhou Yi, which meant that the time for success was greatly advanced.

Maybe there will be a turning point without waiting for the Whale Gang to collect the third protection fee.

…………

"Two hundred bucks?"

Looking at Xu Liu, who was standing with his hands behind his back, Zhou Yi had a gloomy expression. Although he had made some guesses, the number was still beyond his expectation.

"how?"

Xu Liu looked sideways and said calmly:

"Brother Xiaoyi has no money recently?"

"But the rules are the rules, and I don't have the final say on this money alone. For the sake of my peers, I can provide a loan."

Loan?

Zhou Yi subconsciously looked at the men in long robes behind him.

Compared with the fierce-looking members of the Giant Whale Gang, these people have a more elegant temperament, and they often have pens and paper in their hands for writing and drawing.

Some are like Mr. Accountant.

"I wonder how interest is calculated?"

"Seven in and thirteen out!"

Ah……

Zhou Yi sighed lightly. It seemed that the Giant Whale Gang came prepared this time. If he owed such interest, he would have to work for the rest of his life.

A loan, a deed of sale, just another name!

"I heard that you were robbed here." Xu Liu smiled half-smilingly:

"It's a pity, but the money still has to be paid, and there's nothing I can do about it."

"Wait a moment." Zhou Yi lowered his head:

"I'll get it."

Xu Liu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and watched Zhou Yi go back to the house and rummage around for a long time, and finally walked out with an inconspicuous silver pimple.

"silver?"

Although it is small, it is undoubtedly worth money.

Taking the silver lump in surprise, Xu Liu couldn't help but sigh:

"Xiao Yi, you are really secretive. Do you still have this kind of thing on your body?"

"I'm lucky. I picked it up on the way here. This is all my wealth." Zhou Yi smiled bitterly and cupped his hands:

"Liuzi, next month..."

"Let's talk next month." Xu Liu slowly put away the money.

He originally planned to take the opportunity to deal with Zhou Yi, but now looking at Zhou Yi's troubled expression, he was not in a hurry to end it so early, and decided to have fun for himself.

"I'm looking forward to seeing you next month."

Reaching out and patting Zhou Yi on the shoulder, Xu Liu laughed up to the sky and strode away with his hands behind his back.

"Qishan, pay the money!"

"Yes Yes."

"Brother Qian and Sister-in-law Qian, I haven't seen you for a while. You two are quite wealthy. I heard they are doing business. I wish you a prosperous business!"

"Master Liu was joking. Come over and play when you have time. I remember you were very interested in Xiaocui at the beginning. I can help you connect."

"really?"

Xu Liu's eyes lit up:

"If this happens, I will waive your monthly payment for one month."

"It will definitely work!"

Sister-in-law Qian said anxiously:

"It's Xiaocui's blessing to be able to reach Master Liu!"

"Ha ha……"

Xu Liu laughed.

Being complimented, he gradually moved away.

There are many people living in Jimin Alley, and there are many people like Zhou Yi who can afford to pay, but there are also people who are short of money. Afterwards, I heard that many people have taken loans from the Giant Whale Gang.

As for how to pay it back?

Looking at the misery on the borrower's face, you can see how difficult it is.

"call……"

Exhale lightly and open your eyes.

The sea of ​​consciousness light curtain emerged.

Name: Zhou Yi

Age: fifteen

Mountain Climbing: Mastery (46/100)

Splitting Wind Knife Technique: Proficient (97/100)

Clearance (93/100)

Ever since he was stimulated by Xu Liu, Zhou Yi has never slacked off during this period. Even the strange noise next door failed to affect him.

Thanks to the subsequent medicinal power of Ganoderma lucidum, I spent the remaining money in my hands like water.

The progress is encouraging.

Especially the Splitting Wind Knife Technique. Before the medicine wore off, he exhausted his strength every day and was already approaching the limit of his proficiency.

"No money."

Touching the shriveled money bag, Zhou Yi shook his head gently:

"It's time to go up the mountain, and that little thief who stole the money..."

"snort!"

With a slight hum, he packed up his things and pushed out the door.

Return home in the evening.

as expected.

On the surface, everything seems to be normal at home, but several specially placed items have shifted to a certain extent, indicating that someone has obviously been here.

"How dare you come?"

Squinting his eyes slightly, Zhou Yi pretended that everything was normal, lighting a fire and cooking as usual.

A few days later.

Entering the mountains again.

Return.

Twenty or so large coins left in the room were missing.

Zhou Yi remained calm and continued to light the fire and cook. He did not go out the next day, but practiced the Splitting Wind Knife technique at home.

"Uh-huh!"

The sword was flashing and the wind was howling.

at some point.

"Buzz..."

The sound of the knife hummed softly, and the originally vague whistling of the knife suddenly condensed, and a chilling intention emerged, and the afterimage of the long knife stood still.

"Peng!"

Not far in front of him, a solid wood stake as thick as an adult's thigh suddenly exploded.

Breakthrough with Splitting Wind Knife Technique!

Mastery (1/100)

Zhou Yi held the knife in his hand, his eyes closed tightly, and his chest rose and fell rapidly. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at the long knife in his hand.

There was a killing intent in his eyes.

After calming down, he took out a packet of medicinal powder from his body and carefully sprinkled it on the ground.

The powder fell, and a layer of fluorescence slowly appeared in some places.

The fluorescence is light yellow and not very eye-catching, but if you look carefully you can still distinguish it clearly, it is a faint footprint of a person.

Yellow mushroom!

A mildly toxic mushroom, the powder on the surface has strong adhesion and can react with the firefly mushroom powder within a certain period of time.

It was dark and there were few people on the street.

Jimin Lane is full of homeless people, working hard to make money. At night, every house closes its doors to thank visitors, so that they can recharge their batteries and prepare for tomorrow.

In other words, Brother Qian’s family has people coming and going from time to time.

Later in the night.

Even Sister-in-law Qian's voice gradually became lower.

Zhou Yi held medicine powder in his hand and sprinkled it on the ground from time to time to identify the direction of the footprints.

The fluorescence was not very obvious, but fortunately the man was closer, and he saw a large amount of fluorescent powder reacting just after taking a few steps.

He raised his head and looked at the house in front of him.

"Qishan?"

The person who entered his room to invest money was Qi Shan.

Zhou Yi was not surprised by this result. After all, Qi Shan had always been idle and was considered a habitual thief by others, so he was very suspicious.

In addition, this period of time has been so cool, there must be other gains.

When he thought of his own situation, where all the money he had worked so hard to save went into other people's pockets, Zhou Yi couldn't restrain the anger in his heart.

After pressing the door, he took out a medicine bag from his body, shook it in his hand and blew it in through the window sash.

Russula!

Taking a small amount of this poisonous mushroom can make people feel weak and drowsy, while an overdose can cause nausea, vomiting, and even hallucinations, until the internal organs rot and cause death.

Zhou Yi's method of processing was very crude. He directly crushed the red pleated mushroom into powder. As for how useful it would be, he was not sure.

After waiting for a long time, I heard the breathing in the room became heavier, and then I covered my mouth with a wet cloth and carefully opened the door lock.

The houses here have exactly the same shape, and the door locks are even more crude. Since Qi Shan can easily touch his room, Zhou Yi can naturally do the same.

…………

Qishan slept deeply, and felt that he had never felt as comfortable as he did today in several years. In his sweet dream, he subconsciously smashed his mouth.

Until a basin of cold water was poured on his face.

"Wow..."

"who?"

"what happened?"

Qishan opened his eyes suddenly and struggled to get up, but found that his whole body was limp.

Looking at the surrounding environment, it was shocking that he was no longer in his residence, but in the wilderness. For a moment, he was filled with panic.

what happened?

"Qishan."

A huge black shadow enveloped his sight, and Zhou Yi's eyes were like bells, glaring at him:

"Where's my money?"

"Xiao Yi." Facing the angry Zhou Yi, Qi Shan subconsciously tightened his body, turned pale, and spoke tremblingly:

"What money, I don't understand?"

"Peng!"

Before he finished speaking, a big sandbag fist hit his face with such force that you could even hear the sound of the bridge of his nose breaking.

Instant nosebleeds and loose teeth.

Zhou Yi took a step forward, grabbed Qishan by the collar, lifted him up, and roared loudly:

"Qi, don't think I don't know. You stole more than three hundred coins from me. Where is all that money?"

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding..."

"Peng!"

Zhou Yi didn't listen at all. Hearing this, he punched the opponent in the abdomen again.

One of them was tall and the other was thin. With just one punch, Qi Shan collapsed on the ground and screamed in agony.

"Where's my money?"

Zhou Yi's eyes were filled with anger and he stepped forward to punch and kick:

"Give me my money back!"

"Stop fighting, stop fighting!" Qi Shan was already slow to react due to the influence of poisonous mushrooms, but now he couldn't resist anymore and kept screaming:

"I said, I said!"

"Stop now, if you continue to fight, you will kill someone!"

"good."

Zhou Yi stopped moving, his whole body was steaming:

"Where's the money?"

"..." Qishan opened his mouth and spoke tremblingly:

"it took."

"Stop fighting, stop fighting, I didn't want to steal your money, someone asked me to steal it." Seeing Zhou Yi preparing to take action again, he shouted urgently.

"Um?"

Zhou Yi made a movement on his hands:

"Someone asked you to steal?"

"who?"

"Xu Liu, Liu Zi." Qi Shan said:

"He knows that you have made a lot of money picking mushrooms recently, but he doesn't want to make it easy for you, so he asked me to steal the money so that you have no money to pay for your work."

"and……"

"And he also said that as long as I steal your money, half of my monthly payment will be waived. If I don't steal, my monthly payment will be the same as yours."

"Brother Xiao Yi, there is nothing I can do!"

"Xu Liu?" Zhou Yi's eyes flickered:

"real?"

"It's absolutely true!" Qi Shan raised his hands and swore:

"I am willing to swear that if I, Qi Shan, lie about this matter, I will be struck by lightning from the sky and suffer a terrible death!"

"Six sons..." Zhou Yi's face changed, his hands tightened and loosened, and he said after a long time:

"Have you spent all the money?"

"There's still a little left." Qi Shan forced a smile on his face:

"Brother Xiao Yi, if you want it, I'll go back and get it right now."

"..." Zhou Yi was silent, and after a moment he spoke slowly:

"No need."

"Ah!" Qi Shan was stunned when he heard this. Instead of being happy, he was filled with panic:

"What...what are you going to do?"

"Don't worry." Zhou Yi took out a medicine bag from his body:

"It won't hurt."

A quarter of an hour later.

With a cold look on his face, Zhou Yi glanced at the 'Qishan' on the ground. Zhou Yi tightened his grip on the long knife in his hand and strode towards the south of the city with fierce eyes.
