Without thinking Lin Sheng pinched the big mouth close to his own.

Then I saw Da Huang's somewhat innocent eyes.

"What are you doing?"

Feeling the sticky taste on his face, Lin Sheng's face immediately darkened. He turned Da Huang's face to one side and wiped his face with his sleeve.

Da Huang squatted aside with an aggrieved look on his face, lowered his head, and raised his eyebrows to take a glance from time to time.

Ignoring Da Huang, Lin Sheng was recalling the feeling just now, but it was a pity that he could no longer enter it.

However, he always felt that there were some differences between himself and before. Although they were not big, they really existed. These differences were not in his body, but in his mind.

Soon, he seemed to have thought of something, and called up his own Attribute Panel. After seeing the value on it, he showed a sure look.

"I didn't expect that my mental level really broke through again."

He carefully recalled the feeling he had just had, which he had never felt before.

At this time, he already had two points in his spiritual attributes alone.

If you include Three-eyed Spirit Monkey after entering the body, the mental attribute has reached as many as three points.

"I wonder what effect 3 points of mental attribute will have on this mental monkey talent?"

He thought to himself.

The improvement of mental attributes can better adapt to the mental ape talent.

He was very curious as to how long his current mental ape talent could last.

But he was not in a hurry to enter Three-eyed Spirit Monkey.

After all, I had activated the mental ape talent two or three hours ago and devoured several Star Dew Grass trees. Although with the breakthrough of mental attributes, the original mental fatigue was much lessened, but it was still not restored to its best.

So it's not too late to wait until the fatigue has completely dissipated before trying it out.

Thinking about it, he got up and prepared to take a look at Three-eyed Spirit Monkey behind him.

But before that, he picked up the plate on the stone table and planned to throw the remaining piece of Spirit Beast jerky to Da Huang.

After all, his state just now must be very different from before. Da Huang's reaction was probably because he was worried about himself, and the remaining piece of dried meat was originally intended to be thrown to it.

But when his eyes glanced at the dried meat on the plate, it was a slight pause.

At this time, the dried meat in the dish was still covered with transparent mucus, especially there were several teeth marks on the skin.

"..."

Seeing the appearance of the dried meat, Lin Sheng frowned and turned to look at Da Huang.

And Da Huang seemed to have realized something. He had already turned his head to one side, not daring to look directly into Lin Sheng's eyes.

"Silly dog!"

After a while, Lin Sheng uttered a sentence, threw the Spirit Beast meat on the plate to Da Huang, and then turned and left.

After watching Lin Sheng enter the room and close the door, Da Huang turned his head, bit the dried meat of Spirit Beast on the side in one bite, and swallowed it into his stomach in a few times. He quickly narrowed his eyes with a look of enjoyment on his face.

Half an hour later.

Quiet Room is full of smoke, and each brass incense burner exudes a light aroma that makes people feel peaceful. These are the best soothing incense.

Although the price is not as expensive as Star Worm, it is not much cheaper. After his experiment, it did have some effect on calming the mind.

Lin Sheng sat cross-legged in the middle of Quiet Room, closing his eyes and concentrating. Another incense time passed before he slowly opened his eyes.

"It's almost done. Now you can test the changes after your mental attributes increase a little more."

He whispered to himself, and then with a thought, Three-eyed Spirit Monkey had entered his body.

The body began to swell, and soon turned into a red color. As the mental ape talent was activated, bone spurs extended from the body, nothing new. A gap slowly opened between the eyebrows, revealing the indifferent and emotionless Vertical Eye.

Lin Sheng stood up and moved his body slightly, but his consciousness was controlling Vertical Eye between his eyebrows.

"One breath... two breaths..."

Time passed little by little, and he silently kept track of the time in his heart. Not long after, it was already his 15th breath.

This time was the limit of time that he could persist without using auxiliary drugs such as Star Dew Grass.

In the past, at this time, he couldn't bear the severe pain on the conscious level and the extremely violent emotions that were difficult to suppress.

But at this moment, he didn't feel much.

"Sixteen breaths... seventeen..."

When the time reached 25 breaths, he felt that he had reached his limit.

He did not continue to persist, but decisively broke away from the mental ape talent.

"I was able to hold on for 25 breaths. Sure enough, the breakthrough in mental attributes has a very good control effect on the mental ape talent."

He was quite satisfied with this, and at this time, after he emerged from the mental ape state, he did not feel the same mental fatigue as before.

I just felt a little mentally tired, but it didn't have much impact.

As he left the mental ape talent at this moment, he could feel that the fatigue on the conscious level was also declining.

"I didn't expect that the breakthrough effect of this mental attribute would be so obvious."

Lin Sheng sat back on the ground cross-legged, with a thoughtful look on his face.

When the first mental attribute breakthrough was made before, although it also had a good effect on the mental ape talent, it was not as significant as this time.

At this moment, he remained in the state of Three-eyed Spirit Monkey, carefully comprehending the difference between himself and before. Although there was no difference in his body, there was indeed a difference in his mind.

But he couldn't tell what the specific difference was. He could only say that it was a mysterious and mysterious feeling.

It's as if something that was previously difficult to understand has become much clearer.

Soon he seemed to have thought of something, and immediately started practicing Qingniao Chasing Star Finger.

He Qingniao Chasing Star Finger has been stuck on the third level for some time.

After all, the highest bird type Strange Beast that enters the body is only a high-grade mortal, so the progress of practicing this true skill is not very fast.

According to his estimate, it would take at least half a year to advance this skill to the third level.

But now that he was practicing this martial arts in a flash of thought, he actually felt that some of the obscure parts of his practice had become much simpler.

"Is this because my understanding has increased?"

This thought flashed through his mind. This situation is indeed like the improvement of understanding, but things like understanding are basically determined innately. It is extremely difficult to improve understanding the day after tomorrow. Only some extremely rare Heavenly Treasures can have this effect.

It's just like the Blood Dragon Fruit that Three-eyed Spirit Monkey swallowed, but it improves its understanding by stimulating its own Bloodline potential.

It's not the same as his current situation.

"I didn't expect that improving mental attributes could actually improve understanding."

Lin Sheng After thinking about it for a while, he could roughly guess the reason.

Mental attributes cover a wide range, not only one's own mind and will, but also thinking ability should be included.

The improvement of thinking ability is undoubtedly a part of understanding, so it has the current effect.

"It's quite an unexpected gain."

While thinking in his mind, he did not stop practicing, but instead devoted his body and mind to it.

This practice lasted two hours.

It didn't stop until it got dark.

"Huh... this time's practice is comparable to the progress of the past two days. If we continue at this speed, it may take two or three months to break through the third level of Qingniao Chasing Star Finger."

A smile appeared on his face. The effect of mental attributes this time was far beyond his imagination, and he realized the benefits of mental attributes. No wonder there were so many Strange Beast in his body, but almost none could improve the mental attributes.

"However, the effect of the mental attributes at one and two points did not have such an obvious effect before, but it was only so obvious at the third point. Does it mean that the mental attributes at three points can barely be regarded as a qualitative change? Does it mean that there will be a relatively large improvement for every three points of mental attributes in the future?"

This thought flashed through his mind.

But it's just a thought. After all, he only has these three mental attributes now. If he wants to confirm his guess, he has to wait until he accumulates mental attributes again in the future.

But what is certain is that the effect brought by mental attributes is very strong, which is higher than that of pure physical attribute points.

The next day.

When the sky was bright, someone had already arrived at the Lin Sheng Residence gate early.

Then he was led in by Old Zhou.

This is a rather young servant.

After seeing Lin Sheng who was practicing in the courtyard, he immediately bowed respectfully before speaking.

"Little Le An is Zhao family's servant. Mr. Zhao asked me to inform Mr. Lin Sheng that there is news."

Having said this, the servant paused, took out a pornographic letter from his arms, and handed it over respectfully.

"Master Zhao has something important to do at home and can't escape, so he asked the younger one to be delivered to Young Master Lin."

Lin Sheng stopped, took the warm towel from Old Zhou's hand, wiped his face with a smile on his face.

"Okay, thank Senior Brother Zhao for me."

After taking the letter, Lin Sheng threw out a silver coin and it fell into the hands of the servant.

Without further words, he turned back to the room and opened it.

There were a lot of words densely written inside, and after reading them one by one, a thoughtful look appeared on his face.

"Zhoushan County..."

The content of the letter was exactly what he asked Zhao Kongfang to help collect from all the daughters of aristocratic families in the three counties who were waiting to leave the government or who were about to leave the government.

The news obtained from the person in charge of Dark Star Base in the city is that Jade-Faced Man Kong Qi is currently located in the three counties.

As for the specific county, he had to search for it himself, but the other party also gave him another piece of information, that is, the reason why Jade-Faced Man Kong Qi has been doing this flower picking thing is because of his practice.

You need to keep doing that harmonious thing with virgins, otherwise your cultivation will deteriorate.

If you are unable to meet the needs of the practice, you will run the risk of going crazy.

And this Kong Qi is quite arrogant because of his strength, and he is also a lustful person, so his targets are mostly pampered and wealthy ladies.

And he also has a rather perverted hobby, that is, he is particularly fond of women who are about to leave the court.

That's why Lin Sheng just borrowed Zhao Kongfang's intelligence to collect relevant information.

Among the information, Zhoushan County is the top among the rich ladies in the three counties who are about to leave the government in the recent period, with a total of three.

As for the other two counties, only Qingping County has one, and the other Wen County has none this month.

With a strong movement of his hand, the letter immediately turned into powder.

An hour later.

Wanhua City Outside, a figure quickly shuttled through the mountain forest.

The figure was dressed in a smart outfit, with a bamboo hat on his back, dressed like Wandering Hero, except for a weapon missing from his waist.

His movements were extremely fast, and he could cover a hundred meters in just one breath. However, in just one stick of incense, he had completely left Wanhua City's majestic city wall behind him.

"Zhoushan County is not close to Wanhua City. Based on my journey, it will probably take nearly two days."

The well-dressed figure stopped, it was not Lin Sheng or someone else.

He took out the map from his arms and checked the direction. Lin Sheng frowned slightly, but soon relaxed. After he looked around, his body expanded rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon turned into a red giant with a height of more than two meters.

After the red giant appeared, he had no intention of delaying. He smashed the ground with his foot and turned into a red shadow and rushed away in the determined direction.

Wherever he passed, some wild beasts in the mountains and forests were frightened and fled in all directions, making it very lively.

The speed he showed at this time was more than 50% faster than before.

Not long after, the red figure disappeared from the forest.

Zhoushan County.

"Shaobing... fragrant and crispy shaobing..."

"Candied haws on a stick... sweet and sour candied haws on a stick... a bunch only costs a big buck..."

On the bustling streets of the county town, the sound of hawking can be heard one after another, which is very lively.

In the middle of the street, in the Zhao family compound, which occupies a large area and is very impressive, two women walked out of it. The woman walking in the front was about 28 years old, dressed in brocade clothes, with a delicate jade bracelet on her fair wrist, and a smile on her rosy and fair cheeks, showing a pampered nobility.

The woman's facial features are regular and although she is not big, she can be considered a pretty beauty.

The woman following him was a little maid about the same age as him, and she kept shouting as she followed.

"Miss, run slowly... be careful of falling..."

About 10 meters away from the two men, there were two sturdy men following them. They had weapons on their waists and had plenty of Vital Blood around them. They were obviously two strong warriors.

While following the two people, he glanced towards the street from time to time. He was obviously the woman's bodyguard.

The luxuriously dressed woman walked in the front, stopping from time to time to buy some things at the stalls on the street. After a while, the maid behind her was already carrying large and small bags in her hands.

The woman called Miss is still shopping happily.

The two strong men behind him were still following him more than ten meters away, not getting closer.

After a few people had gone away, a vendor on the street spoke.

"Which family in the city did that young lady just now come from? She was so generous..."

As soon as the stall owner said it, there were immediate responses from nearby stall owners.

"I saw that this is your first time setting up a stall here, and you don't even know Second Miss Sun..."

"The Sun family? Is it the Sun family that occupies Zhoushan County and sells medicinal materials!?"

The stall owner who spoke first said unexpectedly.

"Besides this Sun family, is there another Sun family in Zhoushan!?"

"No wonder... no wonder you are so generous..."

"Yes, it's just a pity that I heard that Second Miss Sun will leave the government this month... He won't be able to take care of our brother's business in the future."
