7: Wait until you finish eating.

Although Cheng Yurou was on tenterhooks all day.

She was afraid that Jiang Chen had been captured by the village chief, Jiang De, and on the other hand, she was still worried about the Black Tiger Gang coming to collect debts.

However, after waiting all day, nothing happened.

After all, it made sense; Jiang Dahu was usually unreliable, often disappearing for days, or found in entertainment venues in town. So, it was unlikely anyone would discover Jiang Dahu was missing in a short time.

This surprised Cheng Yurou greatly.

At this moment, hearing Jiang Chen's voice, her hanging heart finally settled down.

"Xiao Chen is back... this big!"

"How did you drag back such a big wild boar...?"

Cheng Yurou's beautiful face was filled with shock when she saw the wild boar behind Jiang Chen.

"I let out some blood on the way, and the internal organs were removed, so it's not that heavy."

Even if it were a living wild boar, Jiang Chen could drag it back, but that would inevitably arouse suspicion. After all, it's not easy for an eighteen-year-old youth to bring back a wild boar weighing over three hundred catties.

"I've steamed the rice, and the dishes are ready. I didn't know when you'd be back, so I haven't put them in the pot yet. I'll go cook now."

Cheng Yurou was also overjoyed.

Such a large wild boar would sell for a lot of money.

It would also be enough for the two of them to eat for a long time.

The extra portions could be cured.

"Alright, I'll cut some pork belly first. Later, we'll make braised pork and stew a hock."

Jiang Chen dragged the wild boar into the hunting room.

Soon, he had butchered the meat.

Although Jiang Dahu was hanging on this hook yesterday, it didn't affect Jiang Chen's mood in the slightest.

In his opinion, Jiang Dahu and this wild boar were not much different.

Suddenly, he thought that since his System Space could store many things, and Jiang Dahu had left two legs yesterday, they could be useful. Jiang Chen immediately went to find Jiang Dahu's legs and put them into the System Space.

After dividing the meat, he first took a portion to the kitchen for Cheng Yurou to start cooking.

"The water is ready for you. Go take a bath first, and there will be food soon."

Cheng Yurou said as she took the meat.

"Okay, thank you, Rou'er."

Jiang Chen took a comfortable bath.

His mind was calculating.

He had killed four members of the Black Tiger Gang today. He wondered what the Black Tiger Gang's plans would be.

Also, regarding his Martial Dao path, he naturally couldn't learn much in the village.

He needed to move to the town.

As for some large cities, Jiang Chen had no plans for now.

Often, in large cities, Dragons and Phoenixes mix, and situations are tumultuous. A slight misstep could entangle him. It was better to solidify his foundation first.

After showering.

Jiang Chen tossed his changed clothes into the laundry basket. Passing by the kitchen, he saw Cheng Yurou's graceful figure busy cooking.

His blood, which had just calmed down, instantly became fervent.

He took a step towards Cheng Yurou.

"Xiao Chen, you're done? There will be food soon... Ah..."

Cheng Yurou was hugged from behind by Jiang Chen.

She was startled.

"You need to focus on cooking, the dish is burning."

Jiang Chen whispered into Cheng Yurou's ear.

"It's not burning, I'm stewing a hock in the pot... it needs to stew for at least half an hour."

Fortunately, the longer the braised pork and hock stewed, the more fragrant they became.

After dinner.

Jiang Chen delivered the newly divided meat to Uncle Chai and Aunt Jiao.

Aunt Jiao also gave Jiang Chen a packet of freshly dried honeysuckle.

Returning home.

Cheng Yurou had already washed the bowls and was sitting at the table, mending the skirt that Jiang Chen had torn earlier.

"Rou'er, this is the honeysuckle Aunt Jiao dried."

"Good, Xiao Chen, your injury has just healed, and we have meat at home, so don't go into the mountains for now. You should rest more at home."

Cheng Yurou urged, the entire household relied on Jiang Chen. If it weren't for Jiang Chen, she didn't know what her fate would be.

"Alright, if there's nothing else these next few days, I'll stay at home."

Jiang Chen also didn't want Cheng Yurou to worry, plus he wanted to study the Crushing Cauldron Fist manual he had just obtained.

"Oh, by the way, I heard from the village that the Black Tiger Gang went to Xiaohuai Village today. They might come to us tomorrow."

"Fortunately, you hunted a wild boar today. Taking a hundred catties of pork tomorrow should be enough to pay off the debt."

Cheng Yurou said, feeling fortunate that the Black Tiger Gang hadn't come today.

Last time Jiang Chen was injured, Cheng Yurou spent all their savings to hire a doctor, but the result was that he could only live for a few more days. Fortunately, the doctor's medical skills were poor, and he misdiagnosed Xiao Chen.

The Black Tiger Gang not coming today gave them a moment of respite, and the wild boar Xiao Chen brought back came in handy.

The Black Tiger Gang's methods were very clever; they wouldn't let you get rich, nor would they let you starve.

They would just keep you in a state of debt.

But Jiang Chen estimated that the Black Tiger Gang probably wouldn't come knocking anytime soon.

After all, Hu Quan's death should keep them busy for a while.

Although the Black Tiger Gang was ruthless towards these villagers, they also had enemies within Dongfeng Town.

Furthermore, even if someone came, he would just ambush them on the way.

Afterward, Jiang Chen took out the Crushing Cauldron Fist manual in the courtyard and began to study it.

Cheng Yurou watched Jiang Chen practice in the courtyard and did not disturb him, because Jiang Chen often exercised in the past. After all, the world was not peaceful, and only strong power could protect oneself.

Although Jiang Chen was encountering the Crushing Cauldron Fist for the first time.

But with his Martial Dao Saint Body destiny.

He quickly comprehended the moves of the Crushing Cauldron Fist.

The main mystery lies in delivering a subtle rotating internal force when punching, to better penetrate the opponent's body and create an explosive cauldron effect.

Therefore, the strength of this fist technique depends on how many layers of rotating internal force you can unleash.

"With ordinary Aptitude, Cultivating for three months, one can gain an initial understanding."

"In one year, one can unleash rotating force."

"In three years, one can Cultivate two layers of rotating internal force."

An hour later.

Jiang Chen suddenly smashed a punch onto a bluestone.

At the same time, a faint internal force, thin as a wisp of silk, permeated it.

The next moment, a "bang" was heard, like a firecracker.

The internal force poured into the rock, directly shattering the stone.

"It's done!"

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up.

In just one night, Jiang Chen had comprehended the profoundness of the Crushing Cauldron Fist!

"I've heard people say before that the martial arts of the Great Lan Dynasty are divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Ranks."

"This Crushing Cauldron Fist is just a basic Yellow Rank Low Grade fist technique."

"If I can comprehend two layers of internal force, it might be comparable to Yellow Rank Medium Grade!"

With his Acquired Realm third-layer strength, plus the amplification of internal force in the fist technique, the effect would surely be powerful!

A glint flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes.

Cheng Yurou heard the commotion outside and quickly ran out.

She was holding a plate of freshly cut fruit.

The fruit was picked from the mountain, very similar to pineapple.

"Xiao Chen, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

Cheng Yurou asked with concern.

"I'm fine, I was practicing just now."

Jiang Chen turned and said with a smile.

"Don't work so hard, come have some fruit."

Cheng Yurou stepped forward, gently offering the fruit to Jiang Chen's mouth with a skewer.

Jiang Chen took a bite; it was sweet and sour.

"Aren't you eating?"

"I'll eat after you finish."

Cheng Yurou smiled charmingly.

Jiang Chen immediately understood.
