Shen Cong bought several kilograms of braised beef, two kilograms of pig head meat, roasted chicken, roasted duck and roasted goose from the street to replenish his physical strength.
Experts can stay hungry longer, but they also eat many times more food than ordinary people.
When I got home, I sensed the yard next door and found that there was no breath yet. It should be that Ruan Hongyu had not returned yet.
As for whether she returned to Yuncheng, didn't come to her residence, went to find someone to heal her injuries, or had some other accident, that was not something Shen Cong should worry about.
The relationship between the two is not that important, saving her life is already a fate.
After Shen Cong ate meat in the room to replenish his physical strength and blood, he quickly took off his shoes and went to bed and began to practice the Taixuan Sutra.
This Taixuan Sutra is indeed an ancient technique. Although it is only a fragment, its technique is so powerful and its cultivation is so difficult that Shen Cong has never seen before.
After practicing with concentration for five consecutive days, Shen Congfang had reached the first level of the Taixuan Sutra.
You know, with his current understanding, it only took half a day to practice Mingjie Kung Fu to the first level.
When the Taixuan Sutra broke through the first level, Shen Cong followed the movement route of the technique in his body and after running it for a long time, he found that the Taixuan Sutra was only the first level and could actually achieve the effect of the fifth level of the Ben Lei Jue.
If you practice to the second level, it is estimated that you can easily surpass the effect of the ninth level of Ben Lei Jue.
The same goes for the Dragon Divine Claw. The remaining chapters can rival cloud-level martial arts. How terrifying is that?
How powerful was the cultivation civilization in ancient times?
At this time, there was the sound of a rooster crowing outside. Shen Cong took a deep breath, got off the bed, got up and went to Dong's Iron Shop.
For him now, coming to Tiepu is a good way to hide his identity. He can hide in the court and hide in the city.
The other is that he can get some latest factual information, which will help him judge the current situation.
If you want to be stable, you not only have to be able to survive, but you also have to anticipate risks in advance.
In addition, there is another very important point. The smoke and fire in the world is the most soothing to mortal hearts.
Shen Cong was afraid that if he had been addicted to cultivation and isolated from the world, he would have psychological problems if he had no social interaction for a long time, that is, he might encounter the legendary obsession.
...
On the other side, in the Yuncheng Mansion Office, Ruan Hongyu stepped out of the bed, removed the gauze on her body, and put on the fiery red clothes again.
When they came outside the door, Lord Yun and Ge Laozheng of the Criminal Division came over. When they saw her coming out, they immediately stepped forward and said with concern:
"Ruan Fengwei, how is your injury?"
"It's nothing serious anymore."
Mr. Ge felt guilty and apologized.
"Ruan Fengwei, this time, it's my fault that I didn't know how to recognize people, and I almost let two traitors harm you. I am responsible for this."
Ruan Hongyu shook her head.
“Their behavior is their choice and has nothing to do with Mr. Ge, and Mr. Ge does not need to blame himself.
The current task is to find out how many people have infiltrated into Yuncheng, and how many people have been bribed by Beimang and the remnants of the previous dynasty.
The border situation is currently in danger, and these foreign forces must not be allowed to disrupt the rear. "
"Ruan Fengwei is right. I have ordered a strict investigation of the entire criminal arrest system, but no suspicious characters will be spared."
City Lord Yun also echoed:
"From now on, all public officials in Yuncheng County government must report any entry or exit to any place every day. Anyone who conceals something will be put under jail and supervised first, regardless of guilt or innocence."
Ruan Hongyu nodded.
"Thank you, City Master Lao Yun, and Mr. Ge. A few days ago, news came from Dacheng County Mansion that they were also invaded by Beimang spies, bombed the auction house, and killed many warriors.
The imperial court has sent new dragon and phoenix guards to help track down the remnants of the former dynasty and Beimang spies in Dacheng County. I believe that all these traitors will be eliminated in the near future. As long as we persist until the end, victory will definitely belong to us. "
"Daxia will win!"
After a brief chat with a few people, Ruan Hongyu left the county office and walked alone on the bustling street, her brows twisted into knots.
"That day, I was chased by Chen Jiuren and Su Feng. When I was unconscious, I was rescued by someone. The figure of that person seemed a little familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere.
But...why can't I remember it? "
That person was able to kill Chen Jiuren and Su Feng, and it seemed that he should be killing them in a crushing manner. This shows that the opponent's strength is at least higher than Chen Jiuren and Su Feng, otherwise there is no way to crush them both at the same time. A seventh-grade master.
At the very least, he must be a sixth-grade master.
But in a small place like Yuncheng, the number of sixth-grade masters is limited, only a few in total.
If I say I know them, there are even fewer, and I can count them on half a hand.
But if he was an acquaintance of her, why would he take away his more than three thousand taels of silver notes?
Who is he?
As she was walking, she suddenly heard the sound of hammering, and her body trembled, as if she had received an electric shock. A figure appeared in her mind involuntarily.
"Could it be...that he?"
She turned to look at the iron shop, and the large characters of Dong's Iron Shop came into view. Further inside, several blacksmiths could clearly be seen, wielding sledgehammers, and they were continuously striking red-hot iron blocks, some of which had already been forged into shapes. But only Shen Cong was missing.
After a moment of reflection, she stepped forward. When the manager saw Ruan Hongyu, he immediately stepped forward to receive her with a smile.
After all, this was a former big customer.
"Miss Ruan, what do you need?"
Ruan Hongyu glanced at the iron shop, and then said:
"Where is Shen Cong in your shop?"
"You're looking for Master Shen? What a coincidence. He just came back today and you came to see him. If you hadn't seen him a few days ago, you definitely couldn't see him."
Ruan Hongyu's heart skipped a beat.
"He hasn't been at the blacksmith shop these days? When did he leave?"
The steward frowned and thought for a moment.
"It should be six or seven days ago, right?"
Ruan Hongyu's heart beat harder and harder.
Six or seven days ago, it happened to be the day she was hunted down.
Such a coincidence in time, could it really be Shen Cong?
"Where is he now?"
"He's resting in the backyard. Do you want me to call him out for you?"
"No need, I have something to talk to him about, so you don't need to come and disturb me."
After saying this, she threw two taels of broken silver to the steward. When the steward saw the silver, he was very happy.
"Don't worry, I won't disturb you."
The other blacksmiths looked at it with envy.
"This Miss Ruan is said to be the Dragon and Phoenix Guard of the Zhenwu Division in Kyoto. She has a high status. She actually came to see Master Shen specifically. Could it be that she has a crush on Master Shen?"
"We, Master Shen, must be capable, have a decent face, be charming, and look like a tree in the wind. Which girl wouldn't be confused after seeing this? She, the Dragon and Phoenix Guard, is also a human being, and it is understandable that she would like Master Shen."
"It seems that we will be able to drink Master Shen's wedding wine soon."
There was laughter and laughter in the blacksmith shop.
