From being plagued by all kinds of diseases to becoming a high-level martial arts demon god!

Chapter 4 Promotion
In the dark rental house.

Jiang Heng sat cross-legged on the bed, silently reciting "disease erosion, start" in his heart.

A warm and mysterious power seemed to surge out from the void, following his wishes and flowing into his chest.

In just a few breaths, the severe lesions in the lungs were rapidly alleviated, and the disease that spread out of the lungs was also wiped out.

The next moment, the tremendous power transformed from the disease nourished his body like a spring breeze and rain.

[Physical Level: 0.97 → 0.98]
[Current status: Severe chronic comprehensive lung disease → Moderate chronic comprehensive lung disease]
In just a few breaths, the physical body level rose to level 0.98.

"call……"

Jiang Heng opened his eyes with satisfaction. This was the main reason why he practiced so hard.

The results of practicing breathing techniques are just the beginning.

The illnesses caused by high-intensity training are his core idea for improving his strength.

As for why not just convert and absorb "severe chronic comprehensive pulmonary disease" in one breath?

The reason is similar to the principle of "killing the chicken to get the eggs".

It is not easy to infect a healthy body with moderate lung disease.

But it is very easy to aggravate the condition of a patient who already has moderate lung disease and turn it into severe lung disease.

Keeping the root of the disease in his body makes it convenient for him to aggravate the condition and harvest the lesions through daily practice.

Jiang Heng calls this method of operation "recuperation."

Others recuperate to heal their bodies, but he recuperates to truly recover.

……

Jiang Heng finished his practice for the day.

At this moment, his body was sticky with sweat, so he stood up and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

In the mirror opposite the bathroom door.

Jiang Heng's body is tall and straight, and his muscle lines flow smoothly in the water.

The only thing that ruined the beauty of his muscles was a scar on his shoulder.

This was the injury he inflicted himself with a kitchen knife.

In order to find out whether [Erosion] could heal external injuries, Jiang Heng tested it on various parts of his body.

The shoulder was the hardest hit, and there's still a scar even after half a month.

The test results were obviously not good.

From this he drew specific conclusions:
"Only damage caused within the body, which can be understood by the body's cells at a microscopic level, can be transformed and absorbed by the disease."

"However, macro-injuries from the outside world, including blows, cuts, burns, and other injuries, cannot be transformed by erosion."

……

After taking a shower, Jiang Heng changed into pajamas.

It was already twelve o'clock in the morning, but he had no intention of going to bed.

He sat down at the desk, opened a thick stack of printed materials, and began to read.

The Wu'an Bureau's assessment consists of two subjects: a comprehensive knowledge test and a physical level test, which account for 30% and 70% of the total score respectively.

Needless to say, the physical body level test all depends on the level of the physical body.

The content of this comprehensive knowledge test covers common sense, martial arts knowledge, as well as laws and regulations, and is quite difficult.

The information I need to remember alone is as thick as a palm.

Jiang Heng had only decided to take the exam for the Yuquan District Wu'an Bureau half a month ago. Now, faced with such a large stack of information, he could only grit his teeth and memorize it by rote.

Fortunately, the drugs he had taken before seemed to contain brain-damaging drugs.

After being transformed by [Erosion], his memory and learning abilities were greatly improved.

This makes it much easier for him to learn things now compared to when he was studying at school in his previous life.

……

Three hours later, it was already three in the morning, and the gang of thugs and speed racers downstairs gradually died down.

Jiang Heng put down the book and prepared to go to bed.

I glanced at my phone before going to bed and found a message notification from a few hours ago.

[Uncle Chen: How are you these days?]
After the original body's parents passed away, the elder who interacted with the original body the most was Uncle Chen, Chen Yunpeng.

According to him, he was once a classmate of his original father and has now become a teacher at Tianfu University.

Uncle Chen has been taking good care of the original body over the years, and it is thanks to his help that the original body has grown up as an orphan.

Jiang Heng thought about it and typed a reply.

[Jiang Heng: I'm feeling much better now. Thank you Uncle Chen for your concern.]
Just a few seconds after he finished replying, Uncle Chen's reply came again.

Uncle Chen: Remember to keep taking your medicine. Your condition is showing some signs of improvement. If you continue taking it for a while longer, you'll definitely be cured.
When the original body fell ill, Uncle Chen personally returned to Nanjiang City from the provincial capital of Tianfu and took him to the Municipal Martial Arts Medical Research Institute for treatment.

It’s a pity that they only prescribed a bunch of ineffective drugs, which didn’t have much effect.

Jiang Heng looked at the words on the screen and couldn't help scratching his head.

It was difficult for him to explain his current situation, let alone reveal his secrets.

[Jiang Heng: Okay, Uncle Chen, don't worry, I understand.]
Uncle Chen: Well, you can continue to stay at the Urban Management Bureau for a while, and you can also start preparing for the college entrance examination again.
Uncle Chen: Don't be discouraged if you failed the exam once. Your original score was good enough to get into Nanjiang Martial Arts College. Studying for another year might not be a bad idea. You might even have a chance to get into Tianfu University.
Tianfu University is the top university in the entire Tianfu administrative area, while Nanjiang Martial Arts College is only a key college in Nanjiang City. Naturally, there is a huge gap between the two.

"That being said, a year is too long. I can't afford to wait."

Jiang Heng thought for a moment and replied:
[Jiang Heng: Uncle Chen, I plan to apply for the Yuquan District Wu'an Bureau this year.]
After this message was sent, there was silence on the other end for a long time before new text popped up after a while.

[Uncle Chen: Okay, it’s not a bad idea to give it a try.]
[Uncle Chen: Transfer 2000 yuan]
Uncle Chen: You can buy some body tonics like these to help strengthen your body and alleviate your condition. If you don't have enough money, come back to me.
Jiang Heng silently looked at the transfer amount on the screen, and couldn't help feeling touched.

The level of care that Uncle Chen gives to me is no more than this, even if they are uncle and nephew, right?

[Jiang Heng: Thank you, Uncle Chen (fist clasped.jpg)]
Then click Receive Transfer.

He is indeed very poor now.

The internship salary at the Urban Management Bureau is only 3,500 yuan. I had thought of many ways to save myself and spent a lot of money.

By the time he came here, his entire net worth was only two thousand yuan.

And because he had spent a lot of money on various attempts to treat the disease in the first half of the month, he now had less than 500 yuan left on his body.

It’s hard to say whether we can hold on until next month when the Urban Management Bureau pays our salaries.

If he can't find a way to make money, Jiang Heng plans to take action against those street thugs who go crazy every day and night.

It doesn't make sense that they can rob passersby, but Jiang Heng can't rob them...

Now the two thousand yuan given by Uncle Chen has indeed solved his urgent needs.

After Jiang Heng replied, new text popped up on the screen again.

[Uncle Chen: Okay, go to bed early. Feel free to contact me if you need anything.]
……

After the chat, Jiang Heng looked at the balance of more than 2,000 yuan in his account and thought to himself.

"Now that I have my basic living needs covered, I'll have the funds to continue my drug plan once the Urban Management Bureau pays me my salary..."

That’s right, although Jiang Heng now devotes his main energy to martial arts.

But he has not given up on improving his physical strength by taking drugs.

The reason why it was stopped half a month ago was, on the one hand, due to the attention of the Internet police, and on the other hand, due to lack of money.

If there is sufficient funding, this path cannot be abandoned.

"What kind of poison should I get... Paraquat?"

Jiang Heng immediately thought of this thing, but then shook his head:
"It seems to have been banned many years ago. I'm afraid it's hard to buy through regular channels..."

"Well, I remember that Botox can be made at home."

"And cyanide..."

"Maybe we can buy some pufferfish..."
