Chapter 207 Caravan Attacked
As soon as Fang Chen entered the pool, a chill suddenly came from the soles of his feet, transmitting the brain center through the sensory nerves, causing him to suddenly feel excited.
"Cool!"
The coldness of the soles of his feet not only did not make him feel uncomfortable, but instead felt a long-lost refreshing.
With his current cultivation and physical fitness, although he has not yet reached the real insemination of cold and heat, he has also become very resistant. It is difficult for him to feel hot and cool when external sunshine and sea breeze.
His only feeling was that there was a little heat in the constant temperature, and it seemed that there was always a sense of anger in his heart and he wanted to vent it all the time. This also greatly affected his mood. It was okay, but once he got angry, it would be like a powder barrel, especially when he was in action, he would always feel violent.
However, the ice cubes on the soles of his feet made him feel a rare chill. He was impacted by the chill, and even the restlessness in his heart seemed to weaken a lot.
"It's true!" Fang Chen showed a hint of enjoyment. Although the coldness would soon enter the body and would be automatically dispersed by the powerful qi and blood, the ice would not melt away the coldness, which would be able to offset the impatience arising during practice.
Fang Chen enjoyed it for a while and stopped hesitating. He quickly took off his clothes and sat cross-legged on the ice. As the contact surface increased, the cold air became stronger and the qi and blood were stimulated. He accelerated the flow without using his exercises.
The heat absorption capacity of dozens of kilograms of saltpeter is still very strong. In just two quarters of an hour, a large pond formed into a thick piece of solid ice. Only a few inches of hot air around Fang Chen was unable to condense.
At this time, Fang Chen had already begun to use the iron crotch power with all his strength. The thick Yuanyang and qi and blood kept shaking, and the restless air was constantly generated. However, the cold air of ice water around him continued to penetrate into his body, neutralizing the rising heat, offsetting the restless air.
And the remaining little irritability could no longer have much impact on him. The coolness from the touch nerves could make him always keep his mind clear and not be confused by his distraction.
After a night passed, Fang Chen stopped his breath and showed a look of joy.
It made him extremely headache. The iron crotch skill has made great progress. If he can continue to maintain it, with his current Yuanyang and Qi and Blood strength, it will be as long as two months, and as short as one month, it will be able to achieve great success!
Fang Chen got up and wiped his body and put on his clothes. He looked back at the bathhouse that had turned into cold water again. There were still too few dozen kilograms of saltpeter. As the heat was constantly emitted on his body, it was saturated in less than two hours. Otherwise, he could practice for a longer time.
He walked out of the bathroom quickly.
"Come!"
Soon, Qiao'er came to her face and gave a little blessing, "Head of the family!"
Seeing the pretty maid again, Fang Chen had become much calmer and no longer had the impulsive desire, but he would inevitably look at her enchanting figure a few more times.
"Soon, let someone change the water from the bathtub, and salvage the saltpeter at the bottom of the pond and put it on the edge of the pond. In addition, let someone go to the county to buy saltpeter, the more the better." After saying that, he walked past her without expression.
"Yes!" Qiao'er could feel the burning gaze lingering on her body, which made her whole body feel weak, but Fang Chen's attitude last night made her unable to express the courage to recommend herself, but she still had a little expectation in her heart.
It was not until Fang Chen walked past that her floating heart fell back again.
However, before she got up, Fang Chen's voice floated from behind, "Let's go back to the martial arts hall, find Niu Gang to practice basic skills, and then pass it to all the maids in the mansion. Your training treatment will be calculated by the master."
"Yes!" Qiao'er couldn't help but be stunned.
Fang Chen ignored her and left straight away.
At that time, the fourth-stage ritual and horse stance ritual were popular. No matter how high or low a person was, he could practice it at home. For example, the girls of Xier even passed on the eight-stage ritual.
But he didn't have such good treatment in the county town. He kept it the same, and he never cared about it. Therefore, all the slaves and maids were still ordinary people.
This time I passed on the basic skills and found something for Qiaoer, so I saved too much time and thoughts all day long.
If he comes to take off his clothes every few days, wouldn’t he cause trouble?
He has always been committed to popularizing Shaolin martial arts, so naturally the staff in the mansion cannot be left behind. However, since he entered the county town, things have been going on, and the number of people left by the Yu family is too complicated, so he has no time to care about it.
At this time, it has basically stabilized, and popularizing martial arts naturally has to be put on the agenda. As the deacon in the inner courtyard, it is most suitable for her to teach the maids.
As for the male slave, he would wait for Tong Qian to come back and leave it to him for responsibility.
Now the four farms have been basically completed and the land reclamation has been carried out. It won’t take long for Tong Qian and Ma Dachang to come back, and things will be much easier at that time.
"Report, the head of the family, the guardian Luo and the master of the hall Lin are back!" As soon as he walked out of the inner courtyard, a slave happened to report.
Fang Chen's eyes lit up. After walking for more than two months, he finally came back. They need to try their best to buy animals. It would be understandable that it took longer, but they would inevitably be a little worried when they didn't see anyone coming back.
After sending the slave, he quickly walked towards the front yard.
But when he arrived at the front yard, the scene he saw made him narrow his eyes, and his feet were slowing down three points. He carefully looked at the figure back, and as he kept getting closer, the chill in his slightly narrowed eyes became stronger and stronger.
"Gangmaster! Gangmaster is here!" Finally, he discovered his arrival, and everyone waiting in the front yard suddenly showed surprise and ran over quickly.
Fang Chen nodded slightly, without saying a word, and even looked at them carefully. Almost all of the people who came back were injured. Even Luo Meng, the acquired image, was a little embarrassed.
Wei Qing even had thick strips of cloth wrapped around his body, and there were traces of blood seeping on his shoulders and waist. Only Lin Tong was slightly better, but his clothes were also damaged.
"Are people here?"
When everyone heard this, their surprise collapsed and their heads lowered and showed a little bitterness.
"Where is Elder Xu?"
Everyone's heads suddenly hang down even lower, and Lin Tong showed a strong sense of sadness and hatred, clenched his fists tightly.
Everyone's reaction made him realize, and anger suddenly surged to his forehead. This time he went to the county town, and almost all the masters of the Weihai Gang in the county town were out. The chief hall and the three major branches together had 40 or 50 people, but less than half of them came back. The inner breath realm that followed him to fight was even more dead.
Even the master of the hall has fallen.
Since his debut, why has he suffered such a big loss?
What's more, he rose too fast and lacked foundation. He only had this little force to use. Now he cut him half of it, which would inevitably greatly slow down his development speed. In the future, if he wanted to form a fleet by himself or expand outside Fuyu, he would probably not even be able to get enough staff.
"Who did it?" Fang Chen's voice was a little low, but it could make people clearly feel the suppressed anger.
Luo Meng raised his head and said hatefully: "Gangmaster, it's the six thieves on the road! They joined forces and set up an ambush on our return journey! However, if only them, I, Lao Luo, would not be afraid! There were only a large number of masters in the six thieves, and there were seven or eight in the acquired realm, two of them were even more successful. We were outnumbered and returned in a defeat."
Fang Chen narrowed his eyes again and said quietly: "How about those merchants?"
Luo Meng said: "The merchants have also taken action, but they are all ordinary bandits, and the losses are not heavy, but all the goods have been taken away."
"What do you mean is that those masters are all for us? Those who come to the merchants are the six thieves?" Fang Chen's eyes flashed a few times.
Luo Meng was stunned, recalled a little, and slapped his thighs and said, "Yes! When the gang leader said that, it's true! There are only a few who will drag down the acquired realm among merchants, and the rest are coming for us!"
The others couldn't help but raise their heads and looked very ugly. In this way, it was not an ordinary bandit attack, but someone used the bandits as cover to deliberately attack and kill the people from their Weihai Gang.
Moreover, the people behind the scenes are obviously not weak, otherwise it would be impossible to send so many masters, two great successes, seven and eight acquired realms, and at least the levels of three major families.
Fang Chen knew it in his heart and didn't ask anything more. He said calmly: "I understand, you guys go down to heal the wound first! In addition, Feng'antangkou will be cancelled, the restaurant and inn will be handed over to Xin'antang, and the brothel and gambling will be handed over to Yong'antang."
"promise!"
Lin Tong originally wanted to say something, but under Fang Chen's eyes, he could only swallow the words and respond respectfully.
After everyone left, Fang Chen's face became gloomy and he said coldly: "Okay, it's great! I've recorded this matter. If you don't destroy your entire family in the future, Fang Chen will not be a human being!"
This time it was obviously another knock on the county town, yes, it was just a knock. Otherwise, except for Luo Meng, no one of the three hall masters and the people below would come back.
The reason why it was just a beating was obvious that the county town forces had already found out about Fuyu and knew that he was the one who integrated Fuyu and presided over the reconstruction of the port.
I was worried that I would force him to break up, and I would stop work and give up the port.
After all, their main purpose is to make huge profits from the port. Once the port is shut down, they will not get anything.
They thought it was impossible to build their own city. Some of the heads of the county towns were still court officials, but they came to build a port in the county town? What do you want to do?
Jiantiansi will not let them go first!
Building cities and towns across the region is a taboo in any era.
As for who and who came forward, it is also impossible for them to hide behind the scenes. Are they really fools in the court and the Jiantiansi?
All they can do is wait until Fuyu himself builds the port and then move in as a businessman.
For more than ten years, they had wanted to build a port, but perhaps they had been exploited too hard back then, or they had expressed their fear of pirates countless times, but no one in Fuyu made any move.
The people of Fuyu are not fools, I am responsible for the risks of reconstruction, but you will take the big part of the benefits in the end. How can such a good thing happen in the world?
Now, it is difficult to find someone who is willing to rebuild the port and integrate the Buyu forces to go out to sea, so they will naturally be happy to meet.
But the conditions sent back by Liu Chuxiong and Zhong Yuanchang were unacceptable. They did not need any partners, they only needed a group of coolies who transported goods for them.
Therefore, the county town forces never thought of sending people to negotiate, and Sha Biao and the attack took their attitude.
