Chapter 13 Problems and the way forward
Governor Smith, who had just finished exercising and fell asleep, vaguely felt a gust of cool wind blowing into the room. He was still limp, and he didn't care about his surroundings at all, and he didn't even know that a person entered the room brightly.
"Ahem! Ahem!" James had to forcefully make some noises to remind His Excellency the Governor, and he stood awkwardly for almost ten seconds.
Your Excellency the governor was stunned like a lightning strike, turned his neck in a daze, and finally yelled like a convulsion: "Damn! Who the **** are you! Guards! Guards!" The woman next to him was also awakened, and the two of them went crazy She tore the surrounding clothes or sheets to cover her body, screaming non-stop.
James sighed helplessly, stepped forward and pinched Smith's neck, raised one hand, and hung in the air like this. The woman screamed in fear again, and James smacked her ear with his backhand, and the woman passed out without a sound.
"From your reaction, it should be His Excellency Smith. Let me introduce myself, James Howlett, the niece and son-in-law you have taken a fancy to."
Governor Smith's eyes protruded, and his pupils dilated a little. It was unknown whether it was caused by shock or suffocation. His throat was pinched and he let out a "ho ho" inhalation sound.
Before dawn, James returned to the manor, had breakfast as usual, and said hello to his grandfather. Mr. Howlett looked distressed, and James comforted him.
Three days later.
The news of the Governor's death suddenly reached Edmund, which was limited by the information transmission technology of the times, and it was also because of the deliberate blockade of the Governor's Palace. It took many days for most of the districts to receive such shocking information. The whole of Canada only heard that the Governor General and his niece died of food poisoning, and that a bunch of cabinet servants were questioned and so on.
But some gossip rumors that spread out are not the case. A full-fledged army and political ruler of a vast colonial land died naked on his bed, and the most embarrassing thing for the Governor's Mansion was that the woman who died on the side was the Governor's niece. Such a "wonderful" death of the two cannot be made public anyway.
Nobody figured out how to do it. How did the murderer enter the Governor's bedroom silently, kill the Governor simply and disappear without a trace.
England's royal family and government sent the most powerful forensic doctors and detectives to investigate this matter. At the same time, they dispatched more troops to control the stability of the colonial area.
When James heard that the dead girl was the governor's niece, his expression became very strange, and he secretly thought that the governor was really good at playing.
Mr. Howlett had just been raising him for a few days and was about to consider how to deal with the governor's dead move, when he heard this news that made him feel relieved. The old man's complexion improved visibly, the crisis of the family was invisible, and his appetite improved a lot, and he changed his dying state.
Butler Wayne inexplicably remembered the deep comfort James gave him that day. Apart from feeling very weird and coincidental, he was also a little scared...
The days became calm again. Mr. Howlett asked James to deal with family affairs more and more, and he felt a little bit about to retire. The old man's persistence in the last ten years has been exhausted. With that breath, Mr. Howlett, who was relaxed, was basically resting on the bed or the recliner.
If you want to practice dark energy in kung fu, you need to exercise your heart and fur, shrink the pores of the whole body, adjust the position of the back and tail vertebrae, connect the outer membrane of the muscles and bones of the whole body, and burst out the strength of the whole body from one point. This is what the folk rumors call a master who "penetrates the two lines of Ren and Du".
Going a step further, it runs through the whole body, regulates internal organs, understands every organ of the body and exercises them. In this way, the whole body can reach the tip of the teeth, tongue, nails and hair. Even flies that land on the face can be knocked down by the force of the skin. This is Huajin Kungfu.
At this level, the internal organs are clean and tidy, the muscles and bones of the whole body are strong, and all human body potentials have been developed. If it is properly maintained, it can have a lifespan of more than one hundred and twenty. The power of fists and feet swayed in battle is enough to shock ordinary people into extraordinary.
In the past two months when James has awakened his abilities in the dark, he would go to the Rag Forest to practice boxing at two o'clock in the morning every day. He thought that relying on his previous knowledge and skills in practice, it would be a matter of course, but The body of this awakened mutant gene gave him a headache.
The fundamental reason is that his physical potential is too great. The rapid growth and division at the level of gene cells, as well as self-healing, lead to the fact that ordinary boxing training cannot stimulate the active evolution and growth of various parts of the body.
It's like a person exercising muscles, the muscles will continue to adapt to a certain weight, thereby increasing the dimension and strength. As the training intensity is increased step by step, the body also becomes stronger, thereby strengthening itself.
The former Baifeng was born weak, and after realizing the use of strength, he was able to develop his body's potential without external stimulation. In the final analysis, this is also because he does not have the ability to withstand higher-intensity boxing training, just unarmed boxing is enough.
As James Howlett, the undead Wolverine, not only has unknown secrets about his body, but also can ignore all the situations that ordinary humans need to worry about when exercising, such as muscle and joint injuries, wear and tear, etc. So he had to find a more intense way to practice martial arts.
O'Hara happily walked towards Mr. Howlett's study with a tray of afternoon tea. Now James has officially handled family affairs in his grandfather's study, which also means that the position of the largest landowner in Canada, the farmer, has been handed over to this young man in his twenties.
At least while Mr. Howlett is still alive, James has done a very good job. He is thoughtful, efficient, and has ideas beyond this era. The family's accounts, personnel affairs, etc. are all in order, but only when Mr. Howlett dies can the ability of this "young man" be truly tested.
"Master, what are you drawing? It looks like medieval armor, and what is this big ball!" The maid O'Hara put the tray on the desk, tilted her head and watched James draw pictures with charcoal Strange patterns.
"Well... it's some tools, you don't understand. Go to Wenn Butler and ask him to make a list of the best blacksmith shops and processing factories nearby." James responded with a few words and ordered O'Hara.
"Oh... I see, it's weird, but you know a lot!"
"What did you say?" James slightly raised his eyebrows and asked O'Hara who was walking outside while thinking.
"Ah! Nothing, master! I'm going to find Mr. Wayne right away!" The girl fled out of the study with her thick long hair shaking.
James smiled slightly, then lowered his head and looked carefully at the sketches, writing something from time to time.
