() After selecting martial arts and weapons, Fang Ping returned to the small courtyard where he usually lived. Fang Tieshan and Qin Yalan were already waiting there with kind smiles. Fang Feier greeted him as soon as he came back, with a look on his face.
He said reluctantly, "Brother, you stay for a while before leaving. There are many interesting places nearby that I haven't taken you to yet."
Faced with her request to stay, Fang Ping just smiled lightly and said, "I will come back in the future."
Fang Tieshan handed the three brocade boxes to Fang Ping and said, "Ping'er, this is a gift from grandpa, your second uncle, and your third aunt. Your second uncle led his men to hunt down a troublemaker in the forest near Baicao Village.
The beast has gone away and cannot be driven back, so please ask us to give you a gift."
Fang Ping took the gift and saluted Fang Tieshan and Qin Yalan respectively to express his gratitude.
"You have already chosen martial arts and weapons. Here are five thousand taels of silver and some elixirs. According to Wenlie Mansion's rules, all second-grade elixirs and above can only be given as rewards to those who have achieved success in cultivation or have established a
You are a descendant of the clan who has achieved meritorious deeds. You have not yet reached the stage of becoming a master of strength, so we cannot give you the second-grade elixir. As the head of the family, of course I have some privileges. But these privileges are all used to give your father the elixir.
Got it. So this time, the gift contains only first-grade Xuan-level, earth-level, and heaven-level elixirs, but no second-level elixirs." Fang Tieshan explained patiently.
"I am a descendant of the Fang family, so I should abide by the rules set by my ancestors." Fang Ping knew that Fang Tieshan liked to hear such words the most, so he followed the ancestral rules when he opened his mouth.
Sure enough, Fang Tieshan smiled brightly after hearing this and said, "Although I can't give it to you now, when you reach the peak of your cultivation and come back to participate in the clan competition to win the ranking, I can legitimately give you the elixir."
"My grandson must practice martial arts well and live up to grandpa's high expectations." Fang Ping replied tactfully.
Fang Wenjun didn't want to waste too much time on etiquette and politeness. Seeing Fang Ping accept the gift, he cupped his hands and said in a deep voice, "Dad, brothers and sisters, let's set off first. In a while, I will bring Ruoshi over to take a look.
You guys." After saying that, he got on his horse.
Fang Ping tied the things on the horse's back, got on the horse, and saluted with his hands in hand.
After Fang Wenjun saluted, he clamped his horse's belly and spurred the horse forward, with Fang Ping following closely.
The two of them walked out of the mansion and started galloping. Fang Feier's clear voice came faintly in the wind, "Brother, you must remember to come back to see me!"
Fang Ping raised his voice and said in a deep voice, "I will definitely remember." He and his father ran out of the iron gate of Ironwood Castle and galloped home.
Qingniuzhuang still maintains the appearance of the past. Tall trees stand quietly in the warm sunshine. Herb farmers in shorts and shorts work peacefully in the fields. Children play around the fence and firewood piles.
Circles of red tiles and white walls occasionally emerge from the dense forest, giving no trace of the bloody storm.
Still in the wooden house at the foot of the hill, Fang Ping's family of three reunited again. It was already night, with a cool breeze blowing outside the window and stars in the sky. Liu Ruoshi cooked a few special dishes, and the family ate them with bright
We sat down at the table by candlelight, eating and chatting.
Fang Wenjun took a handful of vegetables to Liu Ruoshi and said, "This time I went back to Tiemubao to meet my father. He said that since you have been away for so many years, you should go back and see him."
Liu Ruoshi was overjoyed after hearing this, "Dad, are you willing to see me?"
Fang Wenjun nodded, "After so many years, many things have changed. Things in the past cannot be undone. Dad now hopes that our family can be reunited and live in harmony."
A gentle smile appeared on Liu Ruoshi's face, "This couldn't be better. In a few days, we will go back to Ironwood Fort."
The three of them were talking and eating, and the atmosphere was warm and peaceful. After eating, Liu Ruoshi packed up the dishes and went to the kitchen, Fang Wenjun went back to his room to practice, and Fang Ping got up and walked out.
Taking advantage of the night, after walking along the tree-lined path for about 20 minutes, Fang Ping arrived outside a small courtyard. It was a small courtyard with two floors and a total of eight rooms. It was a private house, quiet and quiet.
As soon as Fang Ping walked outside the courtyard, two servants in green clothes came up to him and respectfully welcomed Fang Ping into the courtyard. This courtyard was specially arranged for Fang Ping after Fang Qingniu regained control of Qingniu Village.
.These two slaves, named Afu and Agui respectively, were also arranged here by Fang Qingniu and were responsible for taking care of this yard.
Fang Ping practiced kung fu in the yard for a while, and heavy footsteps were heard outside the yard. After a while, He Qi, Xiong Dan and Xuan Xuan came to the yard one after another and greeted Fang Ping enthusiastically.
After the three of them arrived, Fang Ping invited them to sit down on the stone bench in the center of the courtyard. He immediately took out six bottles of elixirs and gave them to each of the three.
"What is this?" He Qi asked.
"The two bottles I gave you are first-grade Huang-level elixirs and Fuling Dali Pills. I found them in their storage room after breaking through Black Crow Village. These two bottles of elixirs are enough to support your cultivation until you reach the peak of Shanjin."
Fang Ping Road.
He Qi took the elixir into his arms and smiled happily, "I said, why did you ask me to come here so late? It turns out there is such a good thing for me."
Fang Ping smiled and said, "We are brothers. If there is any good thing, you must have a share. I will give the other bottles of first-grade Xuan-level elixirs to Xiong Dan and Xuanxuan. You are not cultivated enough, so you won't be able to take them."
Yes. In addition, I told the village owner that tomorrow you can go to the martial arts hall to pick a martial skill to practice."
He Qi touched his head and said, "You want me to learn martial arts? My mother often says that my head is harder than wood, so I'm afraid I won't be able to learn it. And I'm a blacksmith's apprentice, so why should I learn martial arts?"
"As an apprentice blacksmith, haven't you ever thought of becoming a weapon refiner?" Fang Ping said.
He Qi opened his mouth wide, "A weapon refiner who can make spiritual weapons for a master-level expert? I'm afraid there is no hope for this. As long as I can become a qualified blacksmith and can make ordinary weapons, I will be satisfied."
Fang Ping said with a smile, "How do you know if you don't try it? Maybe one day, you will become the most famous weapon refiner on the continent. Not to mention the master-level powerhouse, even the Martial Saint and the Martial Emperor will have to fight for one.
I was beaten to a bloody head with a weapon you made."
He Qi's face was full of self-satisfaction, "If that were the case, it would be so damn good."
Fang Ping said, "Then you should stop wandering around at night and concentrate on practicing here."
He Qi nodded, "I understand, I can no longer live in ignorance and waste my time. If a young man doesn't work hard, he will be a bachelor. I, He Qi, must advance bravely and become the most famous weapon refiner in the mainland, ha ha.
!" He Qi turned his hands into claws and waved them beside his head, roaring like a tiger.
Fang Ping and others couldn't help laughing when they saw his pretentious appearance.
Xuanxuan couldn't help but slapped He Qi on the head, "You bastard, Brother Fang Ping has arranged for you so carefully, can you be more serious?"
After finishing laughing, Fang Ping said, "In a few days, I will go to Qingfeng Manor to study medicine. These days, I will stay in the manor to practice with you. If you don't understand anything about martial arts, you can ask
I. This courtyard was given to me by the owner of the village. You can come here to practice at any time, and you can also stay here at night."
He Qi and the other three people nodded one after another and had no objections to Fang Ping's arrangement. From then on, the four of them gathered in this small courtyard to practice every day. Sometimes when it was too late, they stayed here directly.
During the day, Fang Ping copied the martial arts records recorded by Tian Xi's system, and at night, he spent most of his time instructing the three of them. His own cultivation basically stayed there without progress. Fang Ping didn't care much about it.
After giving the copied martial arts skills to Fang Qingniu, Fang Qingniu was naturally very grateful. He gave Fang Ping a 10,000 tael silver note as a reward, and also promised that as long as Fang Ping has financial needs in the future, Qingniu will
Zhuanghui fully supports him.
Five days later, a carriage drove into Qingniu Village and drove out soon. The carriage arrived at Lishui Town, entered Qingfeng Village, and stopped in front of a courtyard.
Zhou Jingxuan, who was dressed in white and had a calm demeanor, was already waiting there. When he saw the carriage arriving, he immediately greeted him.
The coachman opened the curtain, and Fang Ping jumped out of the carriage. After seeing Zhou Jingxuan, he bowed his hands and saluted, saying thanks.
This carriage was specially sent by Zhou Jingxuan to pick him up after he learned that Fang Ping was going to Qingfeng Village. During this period, he followed Fang Ping's suggestions and successfully developed a first-grade yellow-level elixir recipe, officially advancing to the next level.
The guidance of Fang Ping, a first-level alchemist in the early stage, made him pierce the last layer of window paper, and he suddenly became enlightened. Therefore, Zhou Jingxuan now valued Fang Ping very much.
The two of them walked into the courtyard. The courtyard was covered with trees and flowers, and a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air. Zhou Jingxuan took Fang Ping into the house and pointed out all the rooms to him one by one.
This is the house he specially arranged for Fang Ping in Qingfeng Manor. It is a single-family house with a quiet environment. It has two floors, about ten rooms, and two servants. In addition to a garden in front for enjoying the scenery and drinking tea
, behind the house, there is a martial arts performance field that is a hundred steps square, with a three-person-high wall outside. When practicing martial arts, it can prevent people from peeping and disturbing you.
