In a quiet courtyard, Chen Feirong was washing vegetables.
She had already put on the coarse clothes worn by ordinary women. Only now, in the sunlight, could one see the slight wrinkles on her brows, and from her face could one see some secrets of the years.
She washes vegetables very seriously, but she doesn't usually do these things, so she always seems a little unfamiliar compared with using a sword.
Uncle Liu, who was slightly stooped, had dim eyes, and no longer had any iron-blooded aura on his body. He was no different from the old people in ordinary streets and alleys. He came over and sat down on a small bench next to her.
Chen Feirong smiled slightly at him and continued to concentrate on washing vegetables.
"The way you use your two-handed sword is not light and swift, but a sharp and decisive way. Are you a student of the Sword Control Sect?" Uncle Liu looked at her washing vegetables and asked aloud.
Chen Feirong hummed and said: "But it is said that no one in the Sword Control Sect can reach the level of Great Saint Master, and no one can truly control a sword."
"You have many secrets." Uncle Liu nodded, looked into her eyes, and said seriously.
Chen Feirong smiled sweetly, looked at Uncle Liu with interesting eyes, and said, "Don't you also have many secrets? You can hide your cultivation and aura so well, and you can be so precise in every step you take.
And with the aura of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood that is as terrifying as killing all living beings... I'm afraid it's only the people in those armies, right? In fact, I'm also very curious... How could a person like you be living outside, and how could he be?
Sitting here bored and watching me wash vegetables."
Uncle Liu's face darkened slightly and he said slowly: "I don't care what secrets you have, but he is different from most people in this world. I don't want you to use him as a tool to help you achieve a certain purpose."
"Are you talking about Lin Xi?" Chen Feirong smiled like a sly fox and said, "He is indeed a very good and interesting young man."
Uncle Liu frowned fiercely, but before he could say anything, the expression on Chen Feirong's face became so solemn that he was a little surprised.
"Don't worry... compare your feelings with your own." Chen Feirong looked at him and said: "It is precisely because I have my secret and my purpose. This purpose is more important to me than anything else in my life, so you can help me
I will value people who achieve this goal more than I value my own life."
"You may not understand." Chen Feirong's face showed a sentimental look she had never seen before. She narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at the rising sun in the sky, and then said slowly: "Sometimes you pursue
Things are too far away from you, but you don't want to give up...this thing has unconsciously become the only purpose and reason for living. I saw Lin Xi's ability and future, he accepted me, and I saw hope. So in his
When I agreed to be his disciple, I really considered him as my main...I will fully assist him at any cost."
"Also, you are all good people." Chen Feirong added this last sentence.
Uncle Liu lowered his eyelids with unclear meaning: "A good person?"
"A person who can live and die with others... A person who can provoke an opponent that he can't even afford for his friends is of course a good person." Chen Feirong smiled and said.
Uncle Liu sighed, his face softened completely, and said: "So, you will listen to him and Ansheng will help him guard the business name?"
Chen Feirong nodded and said naturally, "Of course he will... With his current ability, he can take down the thirteen heavy armors of the devil and ensure your safety. He is destined to go far enough in the future to
Go up to the position where everyone in the world looks up to you. As his disciple and attendant, I just need to wait patiently."
Uncle Liu couldn't help but smile slightly when he heard this.
Who would have thought that a small courtyard in the home of an acting governor already houses a great soul master and a national practitioner?
…
Everyone has secrets, and Lin Xi also has many secrets.
In the quiet little courtyard room under the setting sun, Lin Xi, who was sitting cross-legged on the couch, slowly opened her eyes.
"Those black sturgeons and steelhead pike are not in vain..."
He opened his eyes, took a long breath, and then smiled brightly.
His practice has always been harder than anyone imagined. Because he has the ability to do it all over again, he has challenged the limits of life and death many times during these days of practice.
No one knows that when he was practicing his archery skills, he once climbed up a cliff and then jumped off a high cliff, just so that he could overcome the natural fear of standing on the edge of the cliff and falling freely, just to be able to
Sharpen your mind.
In addition, the things that people in the fish market caught that ordinary practitioners could not eat also gave him a lot of help, so his cultivation level has actually been improving very quickly.
As early as when he set out for Beicang Cave, he had already felt signs of a faint breakthrough in his soul power cultivation.
When he felt his soul power flowing within his body, the surface of his entire body's skin felt like it was beating slightly.
But this time, perhaps the pressure from the powerful opponent in the Beicangdong battle had some effect, and his cultivation truly broke through this critical point.
His skin looked unchanged at this moment, but in his feeling, there seemed to be countless waves sweeping across his skin from the inside to the surface.
The effect of soul power shaking the body goes even further, even the skin feels like this.
This is what is called "cleansing" in soul power practice.
Lin Xi knew that for ordinary warriors, there was a saying of skin refining, bone refining, tendon refining, and marrow refining.
Ordinary warriors improve the toughness and strength of their skin, flesh, muscles and bones through constant exercise, increase their appetite, enhance the function of their internal organs, and ultimately increase their qi, blood and vitality, and continuously improve their physical strength.
But practitioners work from the inside out and vice versa.
It's like using your own spiritual world and mind power to change your body from the inside out.
Start by strengthening your soul power and Qi and blood, and then slowly strengthen your physical body from the inside out.
It is easiest for a warrior to refine skin and muscles, but for practitioners it is the opposite. It is easy to reach the internal organs, but it is more difficult for the soul power to penetrate outside the skin.
The soul master's soul power can only regulate the qi and blood of the body's internal organs, but the soul master's cultivation has already shaken the body and penetrated into the body's skin.
The "washing" of the skin like waves is a clear difference between those above the intermediate soul masters and those below the intermediate soul masters. When the soul masters who have reached the peak are about to break through to the great soul masters, their soul power will
It will penetrate to the body hair, and even the body hair will feel the wash and vibration of the soul power, which is called "penetrating hair".
Lin Xi's cultivation has finally reached the level of an intermediate soul master, and he can easily lift a stone ball weighing four hundred kilograms.
The soul power cultivation in this world is a very wonderful and mysterious thing.
When a bowl of water overflows, a whole new world will form.
This kind of practice accumulated to a certain extent, and suddenly it was like a door was opened. The feeling inside and outside the body was different from before, which made Lin Xi very happy.
Lin Xi stood up from the couch, but suddenly he stretched out his two hands in front of his eyes.
He was suddenly startled slightly.
In Beicang Cave, the tiger's mouth of his right hand was violently cracked, and even the palm and the sword hilt were rubbed violently, and a lot of flesh and blood was worn away.
Even if the practitioner's recovery ability is stronger and he applies some ointments, it will take at least ten days to recover as before.
But at this time, it had only been five days since he returned from Beicangdong's injury, but he found that the wounds on his palms had scabbed off, and the scars that cracked the tiger's mouth were full of itching.
This feeling is also a sign that the scar is about to scab and fall off.
"Perception"
"heal"
"Top Secret"
Lin Xi was slightly stunned, and suddenly thought of the last six words of the "Ming King Breaking Prison" training chart taught to him by Luo Houyuan.
He immediately took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
But just for a moment, he let out a soft cry of disbelief, opened his eyes again, turned around and looked at the ground behind him.
Behind him, on the ground, was his large wooden box containing the "Morning Sun" sword and the sacred pear wood bow.
What he just tried was perception.
But just when he closed his eyes and carefully perceived the dark world around him, he felt the dawn sword glowing, as if calling him.
He actually felt the presence of the Dawn Sword in this big wooden box very clearly!
"Isn't this too exciting?"
Lin Xi couldn't help but blinked and muttered something self-deprecatingly, and then he immediately closed his eyes again.
He felt the presence of the Dawn Sword again. This time he calmed down, became more focused, and felt calmer. He felt that the runes on the Dawn Sword were shining with some inexplicable aura.
The big wooden box that separated him from the long sword seemed not to exist in this world at all.
However, he did not feel the presence of the sacred pear wood bow and the three arrows in it.
"It's because of the specialness of the runes... Is this the first step towards becoming a general who can fly swords?"
Lin Xi's eyelashes trembled, she slowly opened her eyes, and whispered to herself with some joy and relief, as if she had some realization.
"So perverted, isn't this self-mutilation..." Then, he muttered to himself again, but he opened the big wooden box, took out the Dawn Sword, and then cut a small incision on his arm.
There was blood flowing out of the small mouth.
However, unlike ordinary people, the blood flowing from Lin Xi's wound quickly turned from wisps of blood into tiny blood beads, and became slower and slower, and soon no more tiny blood beads emerged.
Although Lin Xi said to himself that he was so perverted, after incising the wound, he had no intention of joking and felt extremely serious.
And when the blood drops stopped coming out, he felt it completely clearly and let out a long breath.
This "healing" of King Ming's prison can really reduce bleeding when injured, so that the wound recovery will naturally be faster.
It's just that for Lin Xi, less bleeding does not mean no bleeding. If a wound bleeds less, if he is stabbed a few more times, he will still die if he bleeds a lot.
So of course the best thing is to always wander around the world, but never get stabbed.
