Great Zhou, spring of the 36th year of Emperor Xizong's reign.
Beijing, Nancheng District, this is the famous slum in Beijing!
"Number 108, Sixth Street, South City... This should be it..."
Chen Changsheng knocked on the door.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
A timid little girl stretched out her head and looked at Chen Changsheng curiously.
"Excuse me, is there a Mrs. Xue living here?" Chen Changsheng smiled what he thought was a kind smile...
"Ah...you are looking for my mother? Who are you?" the little girl asked curiously.
"Xiao Huan, who's outside?"
"Mom, someone's looking for you!"
…
"Sir, who are you?" Mrs. Xue frowned and looked at Chen Changsheng. She didn't know this person!
"I have been entrusted by someone to come to your house and give you fifty taels of silver!"
Chen Changsheng took out a few ingots of silver and placed them gently on the table...
"How is he...?"
Seeing the silver, Madam Xue showed no joy. Instead, her face turned pale, and the redness on her face instantly disappeared...
“Dead!”
Chen Changsheng said softly.
"I understand. Thank you for telling me, sir. Xiaohuan, I kowtow to you, my benefactor!"
After a moment of silence, Madam Xue suppressed her tears and asked the little girl to kowtow to Chen Changsheng...
"Please accept my condolences... I will be loyal to the trust placed in me... With your kowtow, I will give this to you... In times of crisis, it may save your life..."
Chen Changsheng shook his head slightly, took out a jade pendant, and gently tied it around the little girl's waist. He also threw a few candies to the little girl...
…
"Fulfill Lu Ming's last wish, and Lu Ming will give you his Blood Spirit Technique!"
"What a loss, what a loss... This mission cost me fifty taels of silver that I had painstakingly saved, and I also lost a protective jade pendant, and all I got was a manual..."
"Huh... this Blood Spirit Art is quite interesting... It's actually a magical technique that overdraws life essence and blood to gain strength... No wonder this kid was able to assassinate the Prince of Qi at such a young age..."
"It's a pity that such a tragic incident happened under the Emperor's feet. The Emperor is furious. Even though there are so many experts in the Prince Qi's Palace, he still couldn't escape death..."
"However, this technique is exactly what I need...As for overdrawing my life?"
Chen Changsheng quietly calculated his lifespan. Hmm, he could still live for another 138 years. It was all thanks to those dead souls who had gifted him their lifespans...
The capital's prison!
"Old Chen, you're finally back. The guy in Room 13 couldn't hold on any longer and committed suicide out of fear of punishment. You should go and deal with it!"
Committing suicide out of fear of punishment?
A hint of mockery appeared on Chen Changsheng's lips...
If he remembered correctly, the guy in Room 13 was the most afraid of death, so how could he commit suicide?
However, this is none of his business. After all, he is just a small jailer in the capital's prison!
Entering cell number 13, the floor was covered in blood. The prisoner's eyes were bulging, black blood was flowing from his ears and nose, and his spine was limp, as if he had been broken bit by bit. A hole the size of a bowl had been dug out in his stomach, and his internal organs were spilling all over the floor...
"Damn it! Killing people is not enough! This death is too tragic. No wonder those guys are unwilling to come and clean up the mess..."
Chen Changsheng shook his head slightly and didn't care. He had been a jailer in the Sky Prison for three years and had seen scenes ten times more miserable than this...
He spread out a thin mat, deftly stuffed the corpse's internal organs into its stomach, and then rolled it up!
A shadowy scroll appeared before Chen Changsheng's eyes. On it were three large characters: "Corpse Collection Record." The Record slowly unfolded and shone a light on the corpse below. A wisp of black smoke rose up and disappeared into the Record, which then added a few more lines of words...
"Zhang Xing, male, 32 years old, was tortured to death!"
"Last wish: Find evidence within Xihua Temple and expose the Prince of Qi's conspiracy to rebel!"
"The King of Qi is planning a rebellion? This guy actually knew such a secret. No wonder he was silenced in the Heavenly Prison..."
Chen Changsheng shook his head slightly.
Who is the King of Qi?
He is the most beloved prince of the present time, the only Prince of Seven Pearls, and the current Crown Prince’s number one rival!
Chen Changsheng must be mentally retarded to expose his rebellion. Even if there is evidence, what does it have to do with him?
"It's highly likely that the last wish won't be fulfilled. What a shame, what a shame... I wonder what kind of reward this corpse can offer..."
"Corpse evaluation: Ordinary 4 stars, reward: two Ordinary Essence Blood Pills!"
In an instant, two more blood-colored pills appeared in Chen Changsheng's hands...
"Sure enough, it's another Essence Blood Pill..."
After three years of traveling through time, Chen Changsheng had almost figured out the reward patterns of his own golden finger...
The reward for collecting corpses comes from the object of collecting corpses.
If the person who collects the corpse is a martial arts expert, there is a certain probability that he will be rewarded with an Inner Breathing Pill. If it is just an ordinary person, the reward for collecting the corpse will always be an Essence and Blood Pill!
After each corpse collection, if the deceased's last wish is fulfilled, other rewards can be obtained. These rewards are not fixed, but are almost always related to the deceased himself, whether it is a treasure left by the deceased, or his own martial arts skills. Of course, the best reward is the life span...
Chen Changsheng was 25 years old before he traveled through time, and now he is 28 years old after three years. He still has 138 years to live. This is because he fulfilled his last wish and received the lifespan bonus...
Of course, the Essence and Blood Pill is also a good thing. It is the collection of the essence and blood of the deceased. If it falls into the hands of a demonic warrior, it will probably be regarded as a treasure!
After cleaning up the body of Lot 13, I checked the time and it was almost time to get off work...
"Old Chen, do you want to go to the brothel to listen to music?" Pan Wu, who was also a jailer, put one hand on Chen Changsheng's shoulder.
"I have something to do today, so I won't go!" Chen Changsheng shook his head.
I gave away fifty taels of silver for nothing, but I'm already broke...
Besides, his martial arts had been stuck in a bottleneck for several months. After obtaining the Blood Spirit Technique today, he might be able to make further progress!
The Great Zhou, or rather the world, is not so peaceful. Moreover, one person is so powerful that he can even form an army by himself!
The court of the Great Zhou Dynasty is similar to the feudal society of the world before the time travel, with imperfect laws. In this world, he is just a small jailer, and there are too many people who can take his life!
In order to save his life, he had to practice martial arts hard!
Looking at Chen Changsheng walking away, Pan Wu couldn't help but wonder, "Has this guy changed his temper? In the past, when it came to listening to music in brothels, he was the most enthusiastic one."
"Haha, maybe he really has something to do..."
"What could possibly happen to Old Chen? He's all alone. I've been to his house, and besides a dog, there's no one else to keep him company..."
No. 168, Changming Street, Xicheng District, this is Chen Changsheng’s home in this world!
“Woof woof woof…”
As soon as I pushed the door open, a ferocious big yellow dog rushed over, wagging its tail...
"Get out of here!"
Chen Changsheng kicked Da Huang several meters away. Strangely, Da Huang twisted his body a few times in mid-air to release the force, and then landed lightly on the ground...
"Stop jumping on me, you old pervert!"
"Is everything normal at home when I'm away?" Chen Changsheng asked.
Dahuang was a local dog he picked up on the street when he had just traveled through time. The dog was almost starving to death at the time, and Chen Changsheng wanted to test whether the Essence and Blood Pill was harmful to his body, so he picked up Dahuang and raised him as a guinea pig.
Three years passed in a flash. Under Chen Changsheng's care, Dahuang not only grew stronger but also became more humane.
The only thing that made Chen Changsheng dissatisfied was... it was too lustful...
It has caused harm to many bitches around!
Thinking about how he had traveled through time for three years and was still a bachelor, while Da Huang already had dozens of concubines in his harem, he wished he could castrate Da Huang...
"Woof woof!"
Dahuang barked twice to indicate that everything was normal.
"Go guard the door, I need to practice!"
Chen Changsheng sent Da Huang to guard the gate, and he went under the grape trellis, put his five hearts facing the sky, and began to practice the Blood Spirit Technique.
