Chapter 11

At the end of the day, the amount of aquamarine iron ore harvested by Zhang Tie was not too conspicuous, only more than 150 kilograms, which looked similar to the aquamarine iron ore harvested by Zhang Yunfei.

What really made Zhang Tie stand out was a swollen bump on Zhang Tie's forehead.

Zhang Keliang and others were amazed by the bag on Zhang Tie's forehead. They have seen people with leg cramps, people who were drowned, people who were bitten by sea snakes at the bottom of the sea, and people whose legs were swollen when they stepped on poisonous sea urchins. There are those with thick waists, but Zhang Keliang and others have never seen a bag come out of the head when diving in the sea.

"What's the matter with this bag on your head?" Wei Wu asked Zhang Tie curiously. A bag swelled up on his head, but Zhang Tie, who was still giggling from time to time, looked a little strange.

"Swimming too fast, I couldn't dodge it in time, and accidentally hit my head on a rock on the bottom of the sea!" Zhang Tie explained honestly.

As soon as these words were said, everyone around looked at each other and burst out laughing, Wei Wu even felt his stomach ache from laughing, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be quite humorous..."

How fast does a person have to be in the sea to be like what Zhang Tie said, because he couldn't avoid it and accidentally hit his head on a rock on the bottom of the sea? This reason is really lame, but quite humorous!

Everyone thought it was Zhang Tie's embarrassing thing that happened to him, and deliberately made up the reason. Everyone laughed and stopped asking.

Zhang Tie also laughed, everyone's reaction was completely within his expectation.

After returning to Qianlongtang to turn the aquamarine iron ore he brought today into fifteen silver coins, Zhang Tie left Qianlongtang directly without eating dinner.

If you wait until after dinner to go to the fish market, it will be too late, and many stalls in the fish market are closed, so Zhang Tie might as well go to the fish market earlier today to see if there are any more sand scales for sale .

The time Zhang Tie came to the wharf fish market today was a few hours earlier than yesterday, and the fish market was dozens of times more lively than yesterday.

All the stalls in the fish market were open, and many people traded right next to the pier where the fishing boats were docked.

There are dozens of varieties of various seafood sold in the fish market, such as sea fish, sea cucumbers, sea shrimps, sea crabs, and conchs. Among those seafood, Zhang Tie can name very few, only five or six of the most common ones, including the sand scales that Zhang Tie only knew yesterday.

For Zhang Tie, who was born in the well of Heiyan City since he was a child, the lively atmosphere of the fish market always gave him a familiar and friendly feeling, and he didn't feel that he was out of harmony or uncomfortable at all.

Zhang Tie shuttled nimbly through the fish market, glancing at this stall and that stall from time to time, and made a rough tour of the fish market. Zhang Tie was overjoyed to find that the stalls selling sand scales in the fish market were almost the same. There are more than a dozen of them, and there are more or less ones on every stall for this kind of small fish that are not worth much, and they are all in buckets or pots.

Seeing such a scene, Zhang Tie didn't delay any longer, and quickly turned to the stall where he bought sand scales yesterday.

"Boss Zhu, this is a stone tiger that was just caught today, and it's all reserved for your restaurant... Ha, I'm already a regular customer, so how can I charge you more money? I'll charge you 20 yuan for this three and a half catty stone tiger A silver coin is fine..."

The stall owner at the stall yesterday had just finished a deal when he found Zhang Tie standing in front of his stall.

"Ah, the number of sand scales today is slightly less than yesterday, so I'll charge you 85 copper coins!"

"Do not bother,

Just one silver coin, if there is more next time, you can charge me less! Zhang Tie smiled, took out a silver coin and handed it over.

"Ha, little brother, you are quite straightforward, okay, I will only charge you one silver coin for the extra money next time!" The stall owner said happily after taking the money.

"The old rule, I'd better borrow your bucket!" Zhang Tie said, and picked up the bucket containing the sand scales next to the booth.

"No problem, just take it and use it, and just return it before I close the stall!"

Zhang Tie nodded, and ran towards the distant seashore with the sand scales in the bucket. After a while, after releasing the sand scales in the bucket into the sea, Zhang Tie came to the fish farm with the bucket in his hand. In the city, I bought the sand scales sold at the stalls I just saw, put them in buckets, and ran to the beach again and again, releasing the sand scales into the sea.

The sand scales were really cheap. After Zhang Tie bought all the sand scales from several stalls in the fish market and released them, the money he used was only twelve silver coins.

The number of animals released today was at least ten times higher than yesterday. Zhang Tie was filled with joy. Who would have imagined that he could practice cultivation in this way.

There were people coming and going on the wharf and the fish market. For a boy like Zhang Tie who was running around with a bucket, almost no one would notice that Zhang Tie finished everything calmly.

After sweeping away all the sand scales in today's pier fish market, and returning the borrowed bucket, Zhang Tie started to run back to Qianlongtang. Back at Qianlong Hall, it was just in time for dinner in Zhixing Courtyard...

In the next few days, Zhang Tie quietly cultivated in the Zhixingyuan, fishing for aquamarine iron ore during the day, and then rushed to the fish market on the island to buy sand scales and release them. There were more or less harvests. After returning to the Zhixing Academy at night, he concentrated on practicing the several postures of the Iron-Blood God Fist, preparing for the sixth level of gathering the Iron-Blood Fighting Qi.

And after releasing Shalin, Zhang Tie's ability grew rapidly every day due to the fruits of salvation one after another. Zhang Tie's body's ability to withstand the cold and his sensitivity to water flow are improving synchronously every day...

1—11—18—36—45—57—65—72—81—

While improving his physical abilities, Zhang Tie became more and more proficient at using the special abilities of the Black Iron Fortress underwater. Breathing underwater is becoming easier for Zhang Tie, and using space Zhang Tie has become more and more proficient in the skill of quickly moving through the water with the force generated when the channel absorbs seawater, especially the latter skill. In the end, even Zhang Tie forgot to produce this skill. The original intention was to increase the basic energy reserves of the Black Iron Fortress, and began to practice this technique purely as one's own ability.

When Zhang Tie's body was shuttling in the deep sea every day, the latest iron embryo fruit on the small tree in the Black Iron Castle soon matured. After eating this iron embryo fruit, Zhang Tie He clearly felt the effect of the iron embryo on his body—before eating the iron embryo, Zhang Tie’s maximum diving depth in the sea was close to 100 meters, and the second day after eating the iron embryo , Zhang Tie's diving depth in the sea easily broke through to about 120 meters.

The deeper the dive, the stronger the seawater pressure the body has to withstand, and the stronger the seawater pressure, the more tempering Zhang Tie's body will get, and the more tempering, the faster the growth of the iron embryo. , the newly grown iron tire fruit allows Zhang Tie to challenge deeper sea areas...

Zhang Tie's cultivation began to enter a state of a virtuous circle.

Taking the sea as the hammer and himself as the iron, a surge of pride surged in Zhang Tie's heart. Every day, when people were practicing alone in the room in the dead of night, in the realm of soul robbery, one of the goals Zhang Tie set for himself was to Every day, I have to let myself challenge the limit of my life in the sea in the realm of soul robbery, let myself "drown" once, every time, when Zhang Tie experiences endless coldness, darkness, pressure in the sea, and finally loses consciousness After "death", Zhang Tie woke up the next day and felt that he had gained a new life, a brand new self, that brand new self, facing the sea, less and less fear...

That is, in the past few days, in the Qianlong Hall, the news about Zhang Tie's betting with others has spread slowly, causing the entire Zhixing Academy to be uproarious, and there are still people who dare to bet 300 gold coins with others, betting that they will definitely be able to win. Practice the iron-blooded fighting spirit of the royal secret of the Norman Empire?

The first reaction of everyone who heard the news was that Zhang Tie was crazy. However, Zhang Tie was not crazy, and behaved as usual, so many people around him looked at him strangely.

At the same time as the gambling game spread, there were also Zhang Tie's two comments on the girls in Qianlongtang. The first sentence of these two comments was--all girls are born with narrow-mindedness and half-crazy. The second sentence is - boys have twelve zodiac signs, girls have only one, and they all belong to the spinning top. Just these two sentences, plus the exaggeration of some of Zhang Tie's previous performances in the girls' word of mouth, Zhang Tie came to Qianlongtang less than two weeks ago, and he completely sat on the head of the female enemy of Qianlongtang. Take the top spot.

In the past few days, when eating in the restaurant, Zhang Tie has already felt that the girls in the Zhixing Academy look at him with a trace of "murderous look" besides white eyes. When Zhang Tie uttered those two "famous assertions" that day, many teenagers who went to Tieshitan to salvage aquamarine iron ore heard it, so Zhang Tie didn't know which bastard actually spread what he said casually to the The girls' ears made themselves worse.

**, Zhang Tie could only curse secretly in his heart.

This morning, when Zhang Tie just came out of his room after washing and was about to go to the restaurant for breakfast, he was blocked by a group of girls from the Zhixing Academy at the door of the restaurant.

That group of girls was aggressive and majestic, and when Zhang Tie saw the group of girls blocking his way and looking at him with eyes like knives and arrows, Zhang Tie's heart thumped, knowing that these girls were at this time It's okay to find yourself.

"Zhang Tie, right? We want to discuss something with you. I don't know if you have the guts to agree!" Among those girls, one is already in the sixth grade and is a year or two older than Zhang Tie. "The graceful girl came over, said with a cold face, and said unceremoniously.

Zhang Tie took a serious look at this girl who was a bit plump, and estimated the size of this girl's chest, which was 34D. He swallowed quietly, and then put on a righteous expression on his face.

"I'm sorry, I haven't accepted so many girls confessing to me together for a long time. I didn't expect that I am so low-key and still attract so much attention. My mind is now on cultivation and study, and I have no time to take care of my children's personal relationship. , please bury what you want to say to me in your heart, just like planting a beautiful and fragrant seed, don't say it, just leave a good memory for youth, okay?"

In just an instant, a group of girls were dumbfounded by Zhang Tie's words, and then the pretty faces of each girl turned pale, it was because of Zhang Tie's anger...
