Just now, Zhou Cang was looking after his adjutant, but now it was his adjutant who was guarding him.
After Zhou Cang took the remaining bone-strengthening pill, he quickly entered a state of cultivation and felt that the strength of the muscles and bones in his body was rapidly increasing as the adjutant said. It is very similar to the feeling when taking Jingusan. But gradually you will realize the difference between the two.
Jingusan is like "pouring water" into a water tank, the amount is fixed at a time.
This bone-strengthening pill is like a spring drilled under a water tank, and it bubbles out. How much it can bubble up depends on the strength of its cultivation realm. This is what the adjutant said about stimulating "potential".
Time flies, and Zhou Cang is increasingly shocked by the magic of Bone Strengthening Pill. He is very aware of his adjutant's cultivation, and he also understands the gain of a 15% increase in muscles and bones in the middle stage of Kaiyuan Realm. But now the effect of the pill falling into his body was far greater than the benefits gained by the adjutant.
After almost two sticks of incense, Zhou Cang opened his eyes. In the short period of time, he had already felt that his muscles and bones had been significantly strengthened, and he felt the same as the adjutant. He also felt that he had finally absorbed the pill. The strength of the medicine can increase the strength of the muscles and bones by at least 15%, but not by 20%.
Zhou Cang couldn't help but be speechless. Now that he is in the middle stage of the Aperture Realm, one pill can increase the strength of his muscles and bones by 15%. What if it is given to a warrior with a higher level of cultivation? Will the Hundred Refining Realm above the Aperture Realm also be able to gain at least 15%? How about the higher Duanshan Mountain?
The more he thought about Zhou Cang, the hotter his heart became. There is even a feeling of: pity.
It seems that if this bone-strengthening pill can increase the strength of muscles and bones by 1.5% in any realm, even though his cultivation level in the Aperture Realm is not low, it can be said to be a waste.
"My lord, I think it is better to protect Zhang Yan." The adjutant was originally not suitable to participate in specific decisions, and he has always adhered to this principle, but this time he really couldn't hold it back, worried that his lord would miss such a big deal. A once-in-a-lifetime talent.
Zhou Cang finally calmed down the excitement in his heart and nodded without saying anything, but he agreed with the adjutant's statement.
At this time, Zhang Yan was not only a "great talent" in Zhou Cang's heart, he was simply a "treasure". Zhou Cang would never allow himself to miss this good opportunity. Even if he directly clashes with Wu Yuan, the highest-ranking person in the local government office of Langyuan City, he still feels it is not a loss!
"The Yamen told Zhang Yan that he would be registered in three days, which means that Zhang Yan will be threatened within three days. It may not be just him, but the entire Zhang family is probably a target." Zhou Cang's style of doing things is to be vigorous and resolute, and he is also in the army. No procrastinators. Now that he had decided to protect Zhang Yan from the wind and rain, he immediately started thinking about it.
Regardless of who is Zhang Yan's enemy in the local government, the primary goal is to help Zhang Yan get through the most difficult three days. It can also be given to Zhang Yan as a meeting gift to pave the way for subsequent interactions.
The adjutant beside him was also thinking about it, and continued Zhou Cang's words: "Sir, Zhang Yan came back yesterday. Counting the time, he may have experienced some dangers during the day. It's fine now, but I'm afraid there will be more troubles after nightfall. Do you think we should ask the brothers on night watch to take care of the Pig Mouth Alley?"
Zhou Cang nodded and agreed: "Okay, we can add a team of people to patrol tonight. Just keep an eye on the front and back of Zhuzui Alley. If there are night guards coming out, don't bother. Even if you overlap with them on patrol, you must keep an eye on Zhuzui." Alleys, sound the siren immediately whenever a suspicious person appears.
At the same time, I also send a message to the other side of the city wall in advance to keep more guards on duty tonight, both externally and internally. "
There are some words that Zhou Cang cannot directly say in the order, but the adjutant understands them and understands how to give hints to the people below when he explains them later.
"Go ahead, save tonight first, and then go find Zhang Yan and have a good chat tomorrow."
"Yes, my subordinates will go and implement all aspects of tonight."
The adjutant left in a hurry, and Zhou Cang closed his eyes again to appreciate the effects of the medicine still acting in his body. It's hard to avoid feeling quite excited here.
Zhou Cang, who is in the middle stage of Tongqiao Realm, has carefully calculated that he can increase the strength of his muscles and bones by at least 15% with this pill. If he uses the muscle and bone powder, he will need seven pieces to do it. As a city guard of Langyuan City, he , he can only get three sets of Jingu Powder throughout the year, plus one set in exchange for a favor from his salary, there are only four sets of Jingu Powder a year, and he needs to save seven sets of Jingu Powder for two years. This is under the premise that he is free to use it. In fact, even Zhou Cang will save some muscle powder and use it at the key points of realm breakthrough. It won't be used open like this.
"One pill is effective, but what about two pills? What about three pills?" Zhou Cang didn't know about the "drug resistance" of pills, and he had already begun to imagine that dozens or hundreds of bone-strengthening pills would make his cultivation skyrocket. A scene of rapid progress. After finally coming back to his senses, he realized that this thing shouldn't be so outrageous.
"If there is really no limit, it is impossible for no one to know about it all the time. Either there is some upper limit limit, or this thing is extremely difficult to refine and is rare."
After calming down, Zhou Cang continued to ponder between "Strengthening Bone Pill" and "Zhang Yan". I thought about some relatively profound things.
For example, was this thing called "Strengthening Bone Pill" made by Zhang Yan himself? This is a question mark. Even though Zhang Yan said it was "difficult to make" and the elixir was still warm when he got it, Zhou Cang still wanted a positive answer.
Was it made by Zhang Yan or did he inherit it from his master?
If it was an inherited elixir, does Zhang Yan still have it in his hand? Do you know how to refine it?
If Zhang Yan refined it himself, what would be the difficulty and interval, as well as the difficulty of obtaining the medicinal materials?
The method of refining such a heaven-defying thing must be very difficult, and the medicinal materials required must be very difficult! This is what Zhou Cang thought, and he even began to wonder what he should say when he meets Zhang Yan tomorrow.
This shows how much Zhang Yan is valued in Zhou Cang's heart at this moment.
...
Almost at the same time, Zhang Yan had just finished the meal left for him by his family, refused to take care of it, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. Then he went to his eldest brother's room to help him deal with the dirt, and then he was thinking about how to let him go. If the eldest brother could not be as inconvenienced as he is now, he could at least move his position and do some simple things. This is definitely an important thing to open up the psychological knot for the elder brother.
The method of "rebirth of severed limbs" was mentioned in the Longhu Mountain classics, but that was still too far away from Zhang Yan's current level of cultivation. At present, we can only think of ways to deal with external objects.
Two prosthetic legs? This won't work. Zhang Yan doesn't know the composition of the prosthesis and can't make it.
Then make a wheelchair? This one seems simpler...
