There's something wrong with me

The gunfight at the mine ended.

After the workers left by car.

Zhang Feng didn't immediately return to Wang She's side, but found a place to recuperate first.

Because during this gunfight, Zhang Feng's right arm was shot.

The bullet passed through the flesh, but fortunately, it didn't injure the tendons or bones, nor did it cause an explosive wound.

It's just that his right arm couldn't exert force for a short period of time.

So subconsciously, Zhang Feng didn't want to go back to Wang She when he was injured and put his life in the hands of this drug dealer, Wang She.

Besides that, Zhang Feng was also curious.

Doesn't Hard Qigong reduce bullet damage?

......

In the blink of an eye.

A month passed.

Zhang Feng went back a few times in between and roughly told Wang She about the situation here.

He also secretly contacted the Captain and informed him about Xiao Laohu.

For the remaining time.

Under the guise of recuperating from his injuries, Zhang Feng requested an assignment from Wang She and stayed in 'He Liu Town' abroad.

This was one of the fodder stations.

And during this time.

Although he couldn't practice martial arts due to his injury.

However, during the quiet process of recuperation, Zhang Feng organized many important experiences.

Firstly, Hard Qigong in this world should not be able to reach Great Accomplishment in a short period of time.

Secondly, he is currently only considered to have reached Minor Accomplishment, and is still far from Great Accomplishment.

This made Zhang Feng very relieved, because there was still hope of 'blocking bullets'.

......

Unconsciously.

Five months after the mine shooting.

This day, in the morning.

Inside a civilian house.

Zhang Feng moved his recovered arm and looked at himself in the mirror.

"If I had started as a baby, and honed my strength from a young age, I should have been able to easily reach Great Accomplishment before the age of twenty.

But now..."

Zhang Feng glanced at his slightly bulging belly, which had become somewhat overweight due to not exercising for a long time.

"And it's almost the Great Perfection of Nine-Nine Returns to One again."

Some time ago, his belly was even bigger.

Fortunately, Zhang Feng had picked up exercising again during this time, and it looked a little smaller now.

But it had also formed a more robust 'meat-wrapped muscle', the type of ancient fierce general.

Zhang Feng looked in the mirror, and his face was a little round.

With a little effort, it was all flabby flesh.

"Do I look more like a murderer than Old You Tou now?"

Zhang Feng rubbed his face and assumed the cultivation stance of Hard Qigong again.

"But thinking about it, this identity of mine is almost thirty-five years old, which is the age for being a bit plump.

Although I can also feel that the Captain still treats me as a young person, thinking that I am still very young.

But for cultivation, and for all the knowledge I currently possess, this age is no longer the golden age to start practicing from a young age.

However, after nearly two years of practice, my understanding of Hard Qigong has become more profound..."

As soon as Zhang Feng assumed the cultivation posture, he immediately entered the hyper-frequency cultivation state.

Regarding the cultivation mode, Zhang Feng had completely grasped it and turned it into his own knowledge reserve.

"If the next world still starts at this age, I am confident of reaching Great Accomplishment within six years."

Zhang Feng closed his eyes in deep thought, organizing his experiences.

"But in this world, due to the initial 'insufficient knowledge reserve' and age, my physical functions are gradually weakening.

To reach Great Accomplishment, it will take at least another ten years or so.

It's like using the physique gained from practicing martial arts to compensate for physical functions, while slowly becoming stronger on the path of filling the gaps."

Zhang Feng's experience was accumulating little by little, summarizing gains and losses.

And as he aged.

Zhang Feng's understanding of the complementarity between age and function became deeper and deeper.

Especially regarding the enhancement options that appeared during this time.

Zhang Feng also chose two points in [Digestion and Absorption] and compared them with the efficacy of the pills.

Finally, Zhang Feng concluded that the pills could be completely substituted.

But adding two levels of 'Digestion and Absorption' appropriately could better improve his cultivation speed.

Because digestion and absorption are also related to cultivation efficiency.

And it's the kind of strength that 'eats into the stomach and trains onto the body'.

Zhang Feng called this 'food transformation'.

It was more cost-effective than directly choosing to add to physique.

Of course.

Because it takes time to transform, compared to 'directly choosing physique', the gains from 'choosing digestion and absorption' will definitely be slower.

Zhang Feng calculated based on the actual situation.

For example, +0.1 physique, the effect is immediate after adding.

+10 grams of absorption might take one or two years to have the effect of 0.1 physique, but it has the advantage of being long-lasting and continuously effective.

Especially after adding digestion and absorption, it can also enhance the 'burst of internal energy' during an outburst.

This is relatively crucial.

After reaching this conclusion.

Zhang Feng felt that in future adventure worlds, if the beginning is not dangerous and there are no good traits.

Then 'primarily +' digestion, extending the development line, is the most cost-effective investment.

Besides that.

Although Zhang Feng couldn't engage in strenuous martial arts during the previous period, he practiced some conventional firearms.

His experience with firearms also became more profound.

Zhang Feng is now like a sponge, even if he couldn't practice martial arts during the previous period, he absorbed all knowledge that could increase his strength with high efficiency during his rest time.

Just as Zhang Feng was organizing his gains at the same time.

Ring, ring, ring—

The phone rang.

Zhang Feng looked at the note, it was 'Wang She Ge'.

This was the number he called last time, and he didn't change his number this time.

Connected.

"Feng Zi, have your injuries healed?" Wang She's words showed concern.

"Yes." Zhang Feng asked, "Wang She Ge, do you have anything to tell me?"

"If you're healed, come back." Wang She didn't say exactly what it was, "There are still many things at home that need our own people to do."

......

Whoosh whoosh—

Another autumn arrived.

Zhang Feng had been in this world for two years and one month.

He had already completed the 'survival main quest'.

This day.

Midnight.

At the entrance of a nightclub in the border The City.

Zhang Feng arrived at the backyard parking lot.

This nightclub belonged to Wang She.

After Zhang Feng was transferred back a few months ago, he served as the general manager of this nightclub.

"Brother Feng!"

At this time, several drunk beauties who came out of the back hall greeted the well-built Zhang Feng.

Zhang Feng had trained his physique back in the past few months, and at this moment, wearing a well-fitting suit, he exuded masculine charm.

Of course, they didn't like Zhang Feng's masculinity, but rather his identity as 'He Boss's head steward, the second-in-command of the nightclub'.

They were working in this nightclub now, so of course they had to greet him.

As for 'He Boss', that was Wang She.

They just didn't know that.

"Why didn't you go backstage to change?" Zhang Feng glanced at their hip-hugging skirts, because they were staggering, hooking arms, and playing around, their skirts had already rubbed up to their waists, revealing their base stockings.

However, they were still very carefree, not feeling the cold in the middle of autumn thanks to the warmth of the alcohol.

Then, Zhang Feng looked towards the parking lot not far away.

There were a few drunk guests there, staring eagerly.

"Xiao Wu." Zhang Feng waved behind him and looked at the two strong men who came running up from behind, "Find them a car with a driver we know."

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, Brother Feng!"

Xiao Wu and the other man were efficient, and soon they were pulling the few drunk girls and walking towards the street outside.

"Don't cause trouble." Zhang Feng looked at the few people in the parking lot who wanted to follow, "When something happens, don't blame me for not reminding you."

Zhang Feng's words, combined with his broad shoulders and thick waist, were very intimidating.

These few people were startled and sobered up quite a bit, immediately laughing and saying.

"Manager Feng, you misunderstood us..."

"Yes, Brother Feng, who would be so blind as to cause trouble here at Brother Feng's place..."

Xiao Laohu's matter, as well as Shan Mao Ge's matter, had spread recently.

People who often hang out on the streets all knew that Zhang Feng was a difficult person to mess with.

Besides that, no one on the streets sought revenge for Shan Mao Ge.

Because no one does business with dead people.

Dead people don't pay.

"I heard Shan Mao Ge's casino is also Brother Feng's?"

They even asked with a smile.

"Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about." Zhang Feng glanced at them, "If you want to play, you're welcome anytime. But don't inquire about idle matters."

"Alright!"

"Then we'll go first, brother?"

"Mm." Zhang Feng nodded.

"See you later, Brother Feng!" They laughed and said a few more words, then turned and scurried away.

But they had just left.

Someone got out of a car nearby.

It was Wang She.

He smiled at Zhang Feng and clapped his hands, saying, "Feng Zi, you are much more capable than the previous manager. It was indeed the right decision to have you come to my base camp."

"Wang She Ge, you're joking." Zhang Feng shook his head and asked, "Wang She Ge, are you here late at night for something?"

"Yes, let's go, come with me to the village." Wang She quickly said, "I'm going to the village to report the accounts, you and Shun er drive."

'Village?'

Zhang Feng thought for a moment and felt that the village Wang She mentioned was probably Luo Huo's territory.

And the non-essential mission was [Find Luo Huo's hiding place].

'After enduring for more than two years, and thanks to saving Wang She's life before, it seems I've finally waited for this.'

As Zhang Feng thought about the imminent end of this world's mission, he looked at all the enhancements that had appeared in the past six months.

They were mostly about physique and reaction, as well as some miscellaneous items.

Only the last time, a month ago, a decent trait appeared.

It was 'Happiness Doubled', which also works in the real world after selecting it.

Zhang Feng thought to himself, while following Wang She into the car, he reviewed it again and looked at the last three options.

[1: Current physique increased by 5%]

[2: Beginner Traditional Chinese Medicine Principles Memory]

[3: Fresh Grapes X2 (Selected)]

[Effect: After consumption, physique +1.2, and reduces the occurrence of colds for 30 days]

Whether he got sick or not didn't matter, the main thing was physique.

Zhang Feng was set on this at the time.

......

On the way to the village, Zhang Feng didn't speak.

But he found that the car was not driving towards the border, but towards the mountainous area near the border.

That was a region of mountains.

At this time, Zhang Feng realized that Luo Huo was not stationed abroad, but in the desolate mountains within the country.

No wonder he had been running around the border for so long before and hadn't heard a single piece of news about Luo Huo's village.

But within the country?

Weren't they afraid of being photographed by satellites? Or did they do some kind of disguise?

Zhang Feng didn't understand, but he felt that they must have thought of the things he could think of.

After all, the business they were doing was life-threatening.

......

Whoosh whoosh—

The car continued to drive, and along the way, Zhang Feng and the others disguised themselves, changed vehicles several times, and circled around.

Even Shun er got off the car midway.

Only Zhang Feng was left driving with Wang She.

Zhang Feng felt that Wang She was probably afraid of being followed and thought that having too many people would be conspicuous.

But Wang She didn't know that the biggest 'tail' was his most trusted good brother, Feng Zi.
