Luo Ze is 16 years old and has his own separate courtyard, which is next to the courtyard where his parents live, separated by a wall and a door in the middle.
After the two brothers returned to the small courtyard, Luo Ze went to the small courtyard where he lived next door.
Luo Chen, holding the knife in both hands, hurried to the room where he lived. His hands were so swollen and painful that he wanted to put the knife down quickly and take a good rest.
After returning to the room, Luo Chen saw his mother's maid Zhixiang pouring hot water into the bathtub in the room.
Next to her was a girl about 15 years old, wearing a white skirt, who was pouring something into the tub.
This girl is Luo Tianyu's daughter and Luo Chen's cousin Luo Yan. Luo Yan has liked medical skills since she was a child, so she has been studying medicine with Mr. Sun.
"Master Chen, Madam knows that you will be back from martial arts training soon, so she specially ordered your servant to come over and boil water for you to take a medicinal bath."
When Zhixiang saw Luo Chen coming back, she hurriedly put down the small wooden bucket in her hand, took the knife Luo Chen was holding in her arms and put it on the knife rest in the room.
"Sister, why are you here?" Luo Chen waved his hand and said to Luo Yan.
"It's not because of you, you little guy, you worked so hard on the first day of martial arts training and didn't know how to pay attention to your body."
Luo Yan looked at Luo Chen's hands, frowned and said.
Then he pointed to the medicine bottle on the table: "I'm here to prepare the medicine for you. The medicine in the medicine bottle should be applied all over the body before going to bed every day. Remember to tell me after you use it.
You need to take a medicinal bath after practicing every day, and this Zhixiang will arrange it for you."
"Okay, thank you, sister." Luo Chen smiled at Luo Yan.
After Luo Yan and Zhi Xiang were busy for a while, Luo Yan said: "Okay, everything is done. You can go to the bar slowly by yourself. Let's go first."
After saying that, Luo Yan left first. After Zhixiang bowed, she closed the door and left.
Luo Chen came to the bathtub and saw that the bathtub was full of turquoise liquid, exuding the scent of medicine.
Luo Chen no longer hesitated, took off his clothes and got into the tub. Except for his head, Luo Chen's entire body sank into the medicinal liquid.
After a while, Luo Chen saw traces of green liquid going into his pores.
Suddenly, Luo Chen unconsciously let out an extremely comfortable groan. He felt that his whole body had become lighter. The pain in his hands was slowly disappearing, and his whole hands became numb.
Luo Chen thought to himself: "No wonder there are so many people practicing martial arts in the world, but there are so few people who can practice Qi. The poor are poor in culture and rich in martial arts, how many people in the world are capable of using medicinal liquids to assist in practicing martial arts like this.
Without the financial resources to purchase medicinal materials, long-term excessive exercise can easily damage the body and cause hidden injuries, which makes it even more difficult to open up the twelve meridians.
Even though there are only more than a hundred guards and disciples in Ziwu Villa today, not everyone can use medicinal materials to assist their cultivation. Only a few core people have such an opportunity.
This is also the reason why various forces in the world are desperately fighting for territory and interests."
"One is the refining method without skills and auxiliary medicines. The second is the lack of financial resources to purchase medicinal materials. How difficult is it for ordinary people to become true warriors.
Therefore, many people are eager to join a certain force so that they can have more opportunities to obtain these things.
Of course, there are also people with unlucky luck who are lucky enough to obtain heavenly materials and earthly treasures. After taking them, they reach heaven in one step and open up the Twelve True Meridians on their own."
After an unknown amount of time, Luo Chen gradually felt that the water in the bathtub had become colder, the green color in the water also disappeared, and the water became clear again.
Luo Chen stood up, walked out of the tub, and put on his clothes. His whole body became refreshed, and the swelling and pain in his hands completely disappeared.
"Master Chen, have you finished washing? The owner and his wife are waiting for you to have dinner in the lobby."
At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by the voice of the maid Zhixiang.
Luo Chen opened the door and smiled at Zhixiang: "Okay, let's go!"
After saying that, Luo Chen closed the door and followed Zhixiang to the lobby.
Arriving at the lobby, Luo Chen saw that in addition to his parents, Luo Ze and Luo Yan were also there.
Luo Yan's mother died in childbirth. She was brought up by Wang Yuying as her own daughter, so Luo Yan was particularly close to Luo Chen's family.
Although Luo Ze has his own small courtyard, he often comes to his parents' place for dinner.
"Chen'er, you're here, sit down and eat quickly." Wang Yuying said quickly when she saw Luo Chen walking in.
"Yeah." Luo Chen responded, then sat down next to Luo Ze.
As soon as Luo Chen sat down, Wang Yuying poured some soup into his small bowl: "Here, drink some soup first. Eat more after practicing hard."
At this time, Luo Ze looked at Luo Chen with a smile: "Brother, can your hands still hold chopsticks? Do you want me to change them to a spoon?"
"What? Brother, do you think there is something wrong with the medicine prepared by my little sister?"
Before Luo Chen could speak, Luo Yan glared at Luo Ze.
"No, no, absolutely not! The medicine prepared by my little sister is the best. Am I just kidding my little brother?"
Luo Ze explained hurriedly.
He didn't dare to offend Luo Yan. Not to mention whether Wang Yuying would deal with him, most of the auxiliary medicines he used for practicing were prepared by Luo Yan.
If he makes Luo Yan unhappy and Luo Yan does something with the medicine, he will suffer.
It was because he offended Luo Yan last time that when he took a medicinal bath, he was so itchy that he almost scratched his skin off.
"Haha..." Seeing Luo Ze deflated, Luo Chen smiled happily.
"Okay, you guys, stop making trouble and hurry up and eat!" Luo Tianhe said.
Wang Yuying looked at the happy family and felt happy and satisfied in her heart.
After dinner, Luo Chen returned to his room, sat cross-legged on the bed, and kept reading four books in his mind.
After a long period of consideration, Luo Chen finally planned to practice the Qi-Yining Jue and use the methods recorded in the Qi-Yining Jue to open up the twelve main meridians.
Although the Qi-Yining Jue is slow to practice, it can strengthen the meridians, purify the true energy, make the meridians tough, and enable the meridians to hold more true energy.
In the same realm, if you have more true energy than your opponent and it is purer, you can kill your opponent with all the energy you spend, and you can even fight the enemy over the next level.
Not only that, the power of the Qi cultivated through the Qi-Yining Jue when used in various martial arts is almost the same as that of the accompanying exercises.
Moreover, after breaking through to the third level and cultivating true qi, practicing the Qi Entraining Technique can also produce perception. As the cultivation level becomes higher, the range of perception becomes wider.
After breaking through to the foundation building stage, the three flavors of true fire will multiply in the Dantian. This fire can not only be used to refine elixirs and weapons, but also be used to fight enemies.
Luo Chen felt that the Qi-Entraining Technique was beyond the realm of heaven-level techniques, and even beyond the scope of martial arts in this world.
As far as he knows, there is no known technique that has some of the characteristics recorded in the Qi-Yin Jue. Once this technique is known to others, he doesn't know what trouble will happen.
Therefore, Luo Chen decided not to let anyone know except for his own cultivation.
