Chapter 64: Chapter 63: Spirit dicine and Obstacles Arising
Translator: 549690339
Night.
Chen Sheng lay on the bed, looking at his phone.
The screen was showing the chat window with Xu Rou.
In the afternoon, Chen Sheng had sent a ssage to Li Chenghu to inquire about his condition.
At the chemical plant, he had also heard the explosion.
However,
Li Chenghu hadn’t replied even until now.
Fortunately, he still had Xu Rou’s contact information, and she had participated in the operation as well.
From Xu Rou, Chen Sheng learned the details of the morning’s operation and the heinous acts of the mysterious organization.
Human bombs.
Even though Chen Sheng already knew that the mysterious organization was not good, such actions were simply horrifying. Now,
Li Chenghu was still in the intensive care unit.
Although his life as a Qi-sensor was not in great danger, it might take so ti for him to recover.
That was why Chen Sheng hadn’t received a reply.
After ending the chat with Xu Rou, Chen Sheng put down his phone.
Looking at the ceiling, he gradually fell into deep thought.
Guo Yang would definitely not let things go.
There were many security caras in the city now, and even in remote areas like this, it wouldn’t be hard to find him.
The enemy might attack again in a short ti.
Based on his experience this ti, Chen Sheng didn’t think Guo Yang would be unprepared then.
Before the opponent arrived,
he had to do everything possible to improve his strength as quickly as possible.
Fortunately,
Zhou Li had already told him that he would go to the Martial Arts Association in Quanjiang City tomorrow to collect their share of spirit dicines for the past few months.
Although the share was very small every month, the accumulation of nearly half a year.
It was enough for Chen Sheng’s strength to make a great leap forward in the following period.
Just…
“Cough, cough – cough, cough!”
Listening to the increasingly intense coughing from next door, Chen Sheng couldn’t help but worry.
Boom, boom.
He ca to the backyard and knocked on Zhou Li’s door.
“Old man, are you okay?”
“I’m—fine!”
“My body is strong cough, cough -”
The extrely hoarse voice of Zhou Li could be heard from inside.
Chen Sheng rolled his eyes.
“Forget it, I’ll go tomorrow.” “I’m afraid no one will care if you die halfway.”
“You stinky little—cough, cough!”
If it had been before, Zhou Li would not have been able to stand this anger and would have gotten up to argue with Chen Sheng all night.
Unfortunately, now, as soon as the temperature drops at night, he starts coughing non-stop.
Let alone arguing, even talking is difficult.
Having no choice, he could only quickly get back under the thick covers after taking the dicine given by the doctor.
Chen Sheng also returned to his room and prepared to go to bed early.
The night passed without incident.
The next day, early in the morning.
Chen Sheng went to the kitchen and put the herbs for the Vitality Soup into the pot to cook.
Then, he put on his hat and mask and went out to buy breakfast.
Half an hour later.
Chen Sheng ca back to the grocery store with buns and soy milk.
He happened to run into Zhou Li waking up.
The old man didn’t seem to mind at all, and sat at the table waiting for Chen Sheng to take out the breakfast with a cheerful smile.
“Ha ha, you’re a sensible kid.”
“I’ll go to the Martial Arts Association later to get the spirit dicine for you.” As Zhou Li spoke, he kept coughing, as if he was going to cough up his lungs.
Even the thick cotton jacket he was wearing didn’t seem to provide enough warmth.
“That’s enough, old man, take it easy. I can go later.” This ti, Zhou Li didn’t refuse.
He looked at his hands, which were like eagle claws.
In the past, these hands could easily tear apart a piece of wood.
But now, they were trembling incessantly even when holding a bun.
Zhou Li sighed deeply.
“I’ll prepare the docunts for you in a while. Just give them to the staff at the
Martial Arts Association, and you can get the spirit dicine.”
“Alright.”
Chen Sheng replied with a single word.
The two of them didn’t talk anymore and ate their breakfast quietly.
After they finished eating,
Zhou Li went back to his room to prepare the materials.
Chen Sheng ca to the kitchen, poured the cooked Vitality Soup into a cup, and took a big sip.
He accepted the thick stack of docunts handed over by Zhou Li.
They included changes in the sect’s positions, changes in the sect’s personnel, and many complicated procedures, all of which Zhou Li had stamped with his seal.
“I’m leaving, old man.”
Chen Sheng waved his hand and disappeared beyond the glass door.
“Sigh—
Looking in the direction where Chen Sheng had left,
Zhou Li stood in place, sighing deeply. “Little Shen.” “I hope your judgnt of people is accurate.”
Having said that, he dragged his hunched body and slowly sat back behind the glass counter of the grocery store.
Turning on the radio.
Beautiful opera music echoed throughout the store.
However, in the midst of it, there were occasional coughs.
Quanjiang City.
Martial Arts Association.
In the office.
“Xingwu Gym… ten shares.”
“Extre Intention Martial Arts Hall… three shares.”
A middle-aged man wearing black-rimd glasses was making marks on a docunt.
His na was Gao Sheng, and he was responsible for managing the distribution of spirit dicine in the Martial Arts Association.
Every month, he would summarize the list of certified martial arts gyms or sects in Quanjiang City, confirm their current status, and then report the required spirit dicine shares to the Martial Arts Association Headquarters in Jinghai.
Finally, after the headquarters’ approval, he would distribute the spirit dicine to the various martial arts gyms in Quanjiang City.
However, since Quanjiang City was not a major martial arts province, there were not many strong people.
Headquarters’ managent of this side was not too strict either.
Therefore, there were quite a few loopholes in the distribution of spirit dicine.
For example, right now,
Gao Sheng was filling out shares for each sect.
When he wrote down the Eagle Body Sect, he couldn’t help but smile.
“Eagle Body Sect… one share.”
Since the Tide Rising Period, when spirit dicine appeared,
Zhou Li had only received it once and hadn’t co for it since.
A few months ago,
Gao Sheng successfully learned about Zhou Li’s serious illness and that he was not long for this world.
He was overjoyed at the news.
The Eagle Body Sect had long existed in na only, and an old man close to death probably wouldn’t care about this bit of spirit dicine.
so,
in the previous few months, Gao Sheng would receive the spirit dicine ant for the Eagle Body Sect every month.
Not just the Eagle Body Sect,
it was the sa for other small sects with little sense of existence and insignificant voices.
So of these spirit dicines, a portion went to Gao Sheng himself, a portion was sold to other martial arts gyms in urgent need of spirit dicine,
and the rest was hidden in his own ho to prevent any unexpected situations and stop others’ mouths.
At this mont,
Gao Sheng was happily calculating how much spirit dicine he would get next month.
Knock knock.
KNOCKING on the door interrupted his thoughts.
“Co in.”
Gao Sheng put on a serious expression.
“Director, there’s soone nad Chen Sheng who ca to collect spirit dicine.”
A staff mber walked in with a thick stack of docunts in his hand.
“Chen Sheng?”
Gao Sheng was slightly puzzled.
He knew all the principals of the various large and small martial arts halls and sects in Quanjiang City, even the nas of their direct disciples.
But this na, Chen Sheng, was the first ti he had heard it.
“Which sect does he belong to?”
“He said he’s from the Eagle Body Sect.”
As soon as he heard the three words “Eagle Body Sect”, Gao Sheng’s brows furrowed.
Could it be that old man Zhou Li found a disciple at the last minute?
“He said he wants to collect the spirit dicine for the previous months as well.”
“This is the paperwork he brought for the change of person in charge.”
The staff mber ca forward and put the paperwork Chen Sheng brought on the table.
Upon hearing this,
Gao Sheng picked up the paperwork and glanced at it briefly.
A sliver of sharp light flashed across his eyes. After a brief mont of contemplation, he spoke again.
“You go tell this Chen Sheng…”
“The spirit dicine that’s expired cannot be collected.” “If he wants it, he can only have this month’s share.”
No one would believe this excuse.
If it were a martial arts sect with a slightly larger reputation and influence, he wouldn’t dare to use this excuse.
“Director. is this a hit–
The staff mber was also hesitant.
“It’s okay, just tell him I’m the one who said it. He won’t have any objections.”
Gao Sheng waved his hand impatiently.
He had done this kind of thing more than once.
What was the Eagle Body Sect worth?
With only two people, one of whom was about to die, it could be said that the sect existed in na only.
If the other party wanted to get the spirit dicine, they wouldn’t dare to offend him.
Gao Sheng was very confident in his heart.
“Yes.”
Seeing this, the staff mber did not dare to say anything more and directly turned around and left..
