Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

The bandit was shaking like a sieve, his crotch was wet, and he was emitting a fishy smell.

"Master Chen! Master Chen, please spare my life. I am willing to lead my fellow gang members to surrender..."

Chen Changfan waved his hand to stop him. "I don't have time to listen to your nonsense. Take me to Ma Cheng's tent and tell me how you became the leader of this gang."

"Yes, sir, please come this way..."

Hong Youyi's legs were weak, and he was finally supported by two soldiers and arrived at Ma Cheng's tent.

Along the way, Hong Youyi kept his words short, and Chen Changfan took this opportunity to understand the situation of the caravan.

It turned out that Hong Youyi killed his brothers and seized power. Overnight, the Ma Gang became the Hong Gang.

What's funny is that when he led his troops to attack the village, the first thing that Gang Leader Hong chose was to run for his life. How stupid!

If you defend the stronghold to the death, you may have a chance of survival, but if you just run away, you will only die.

Without paying any more attention to this incompetent gang leader, Chen Changfan raised his hand and opened the tent.

His eyes swept over everything in the tent, and when he sat in Ma Cheng's exclusive seat, he inexplicably felt a strange sense of familiarity.

"It seems that experiencing Ma Cheng's reincarnation will subtly influence me. I wonder if this is good or bad?"

After a brief recollection, he pushed open the table, picked up a floor tile in front of him on the left, and an exquisite small wooden box came into view.

When the small box was opened, an old book lay quietly inside.

The big words "Blood Killing Hand" are particularly eye-catching.

This Blood-killing Hand, like the Eight Steps to Chasing the Cicada, is a first-level martial art, so its power is naturally quite impressive.

In the previous battle with Ma Cheng, Chen Changfan was almost beaten to death on the spot by Ma Cheng's blood-killing hand.

If he hadn't relied on the Eight Steps to Chase the Cicada to dodge and evade, he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long, and naturally he wouldn't have had the opportunity to use sulfuric acid to launch a sneak attack later.

This shows how terrifying the power of Dengjie martial arts is.

The bandit suppression army was currently cleaning up the battlefield, and he was happy to have some free time, so he picked up the secret book and slowly flipped through it.

"There are roughly three levels of training for the Killing Blood Hand: Killing Blood into the Arm, Killing Blood into the Hand, and Killing Blood into the Fingers."

Chen Changfan couldn't help but recall the scene in his previous battle with Ma Cheng, where Ma Cheng's arm muscles bulged and blood-colored mist rose.

That was the manifestation of the evil blood entering his arm, which also indirectly showed that Ma Cheng had only cultivated to the first level.

If you reach the second level, when the evil blood enters your hands, your hands will turn red and your power will be greatly enhanced.

If one reaches the third level and draws evil blood into the fingers, not only will the attacking moves become more bizarre and varied, making it difficult for the enemy to defend against them, but the hands can also be strengthened. If practiced to the extreme, a pair of hands can even be comparable to iron, indestructible.

Although this martial art is incredibly powerful, it is also quite difficult to practice.

Ma Cheng has had the Blood-Killing Hand for more than ten years, and has even reached the level of physical cultivation, but he has only cultivated the Blood-Killing Hand to the first level. This shows how difficult it is to make progress in martial arts.

But these difficulties are nothing to Chen Changfan.

As long as you learn the martial arts, you can achieve perfection directly through deduction.

Relying on his photographic memory, Chen Changfan memorized the Blood Hand firmly in his mind. By spending only some adventure points, he completely mastered the third level of the Blood Hand.

He raised his hands, and a faint blood evil spread from his arms all the way to his fingers, looking quite evil.

"Why does it feel like my triple evil blood is a little thin? Is it because I haven't ascended the stairs yet?"

Chen Changfan smacked his lips with some regret, his expression seeming a little disgusted.

If Ma Cheng heard this, he would probably be so angry that he would come back to life and then die. It was really infuriating.

It took him ten years of hard training to reach the first level of Killing Blood, but Chen Changfan reached the third level of Killing Blood in just a short time. He was still complaining about the thinness of the Killing Blood. How shameless!

After collecting the evil blood, his palm returned to its original shape. Chen Changfan then skillfully took out weapons such as longbows and double axes, as well as valuables such as silver ingots and gold bars from the tent. Some of the valuables were carefully hidden by Ma Cheng, but they were still taken out one by one by Chen Changfan.

Thinking back to Ma Cheng in his reincarnation, who would take out these gold and silver treasures to admire every day, Chen Changfan found it a little funny.

Ma Cheng took it out and hid it every day, so it was hard for him to forget it.

"It's a pity that there's no secret manual on ascending the stairs. Perhaps his ability to ascend is related to that devouring technique?"

Ma Cheng's life was brutal and bloody, spent almost his entire life drinking blood and eating flesh. Later, he would go on a quest to gather spirit beasts for food, even deliberately snatching some young children back...

Calling up the system panel, the three options floated before my eyes, emitting a flickering brilliance:

[At the end of the reincarnation, you can choose one of the following three rewards:]

[Reward 1: Devouring Method.]

[Reward 2: The method of plundering.]

[Reward 3: The art of leading troops.]

"Judging from the combat qualities of these bandits, Ma Cheng's leadership skills are not as good as mine. As for the art of looting, I have a different teacher. There is a captain named Li in China who is well versed in this art..."

After pondering for a moment, Chen Changfan finally chose the first option.

The method of devouring should be the secret of Ma Cheng's ascension. If he can master it, maybe he can also ascend to the next level in one step and become a true warrior.

After witnessing the terrifying power of the warriors who had ascended the stairs, Chen Changfan also began to yearn for ascending the stairs in his heart.

According to the system's judgment, he is now half a step up the ladder, but there is still a huge gap between him and Ma Cheng.

The speed, power and physical strength of the warriors who have reached the next level are beyond the scope of ordinary people. They are indeed very terrifying.

As I was thinking this, the system had already responded.

Looking at the panel again, I found an extra line of blood-red text in the skills column.

[Swallowing Method: Increase Qi and Blood through eating. The more spiritual energy the food contains, the faster the Qi and Blood will increase.]

[Current HP value: 9888/]

Very simple and clear introduction.

It even comes with digital instructions, which is quite thoughtful.

This amount of Qi and Blood should be the Qi and Blood threshold required for a first-level warrior. Now that I have 9888 points of Qi and Blood, it seems that the distance is very close.

It can indeed be called half a step up the ladder.

"Can eating increase Qi and blood? Then wouldn't it mean I don't have to work so hard to strengthen my body and strengthen my muscles and bones?"

Thinking back carefully, it seems that I haven't trained my body seriously along the way. It seems that this method of devouring is really suitable for me.

Chen Changfan tried it on the spot and took out a small cloth bag from his arms.

When I opened it, I saw all kinds of food.

It should be specially pointed out here that warriors get hungry easily when they are training their bodies, so it is reasonable for them to carry some snacks with them.

He took out a Hu pancake and ate it.
