Taoist master wants to ascend

Hualala!

The boiling hot water was poured into the bathtub, steam rising.

"Huh!"

Li Yuan sighed comfortably while soaking in the boiling liquid medicine naked:

"Thank you, Liu Qing!"

"No, you're welcome."

Liu Qing was somewhat flattered.

Li Yuan today is not the same as he was three months ago.

First in the inner courtyard assessment, Zhang Ben's disciple, forging genius... a series of titles added together, he is already a new star in the forging shop.

Even in the outer city, he has some reputation.

"By the way, have you found Wei Wu?"

Li Yuan looked up.

Wei Wu was an apprentice in the front yard. He disappeared a few days ago. His parents came to the door and made a big fuss.

"Well, I heard that he was jealous of Liang A Shui, so he went fishing with her. He accidentally fell in and rushed to the lower town. He was beaten as soon as he got home. I heard that he was going to be kicked out of the shop..."

Liu Qing answered, a little sad.

"Is that so?"

Li Yuan nodded. Liang Ashui became rich too quickly and too sensationally. I don't know how many people are watching him. It's not just Wei Wu who wants to emulate him. Seven months ago, he himself was jealous.

"Then I'll go out and boil water. I need several buckets!"

Liu Qing scratched his head, laughed foolishly, and walked out of the house with buckets, his steps were much happier.

"Spend money like water!"

Taking a hot bath is not easy, and a medicinal bath is even more luxurious. For a bath, firewood will cost two or three hundred kilograms, plus medicinal materials, enough for an ordinary family to spend for one or two months.

Normally, apprentices in the inner courtyard only take a bath once every half a month, and Li Yuan is a little more extravagant, taking a bath once every ten days.

"If you don't bathe for years, your skin will be covered with dust and dirt. I heard that even the wives of the three families of Liu, Wang, and Bai in the inner city only take a bath once every ten days..."

Soaking in the medicinal liquid, Li Yuan's skin turned red. He closed his eyes slightly and could feel the blood flowing in his body, nourishing his muscles and bones.

Qi and blood are a very mysterious thing. He is willing to call it the second immune system, which can isolate wind and cold and strengthen the body.

As far as he knows, among the people who die from wind and cold in Gaoliu County every year, there has never been a martial artist who has entered the martial arts world. This is the wonderful use of blood and qi.

"Maybe it has something to do with the fact that martial artists take more medicine?"

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes and sensed the palm weapon scroll.

[Second-level Master of Weapons]

[Weapons: Sanyuan Army Standard Scythe (first-level), Master Hammer (second-level)]

[Effects of control: Great Perfection-level Forging Method, Perfection-level White Ape Cloak Hammer Method, Great Perfection-level Saw Horse Scythe Method, Weapon Talent, Familiarity with All Weapons, Mastery of Long Weapons]

"At present, the effects of control are skill-based and talent-based. Whether there will be other effects is still uncertain..."

"Skill-based blessing has two effects. If it is not actively activated, it can greatly improve my martial arts speed. If it is actively activated, the effect of control can be instantly superimposed on me..."

"At that time, I had just entered the proficiency, and activated the training hammer, and the hammer method was instantly a small success. Now my blood and hammer method are almost complete. At the same time, I promote the sickle and the master hammer. What realm can my hammer method be pushed to?

Perfection, or great perfection?"

Li Yuan calculated in his heart and looked down at his palm.

"As for the talent type..."

In the steam, a flying knife can be seen flying between his five fingers, flowing like a fish, very flexible.

The blessing of the weapon talent is immediate.

He can push the forging technique from scratch to a small success in three months, which is inseparable from the blessing of this talent.

"Unfortunately, the long weapon mastery cannot be applied to the flying knife..."

Li Yuan is still satisfied with his progress.

The only thing that holds him back is the blood.

If the medium and low root bones are not tempered with the fighting method of the military way fighting hammer, even with the assistance of medicinal food and medicinal bath, they cannot be compared with the superior root bones.

After all, superior root bones are not lacking in medicinal materials.

For example, the senior brother Yue Yunjin in the inner courtyard has superior root bones. He has learned martial arts for more than three years, and his blood can already bless his limbs.

It's just that his hammer method is a little worse, and he has not been able to penetrate the six directions, otherwise he would have broken through the internal strength a few years ago.

When the water cooled down a little, Liu Qing brought another bucket of hot water and poured it into the bathtub. After doing this several times, Li Yuan got up and walked to the bathtub next to him.

Soaked in clean water to wash off the smell of medicine on his body.

After that, he put on the shorts and single clothes that were newly issued by the shop, tied his hair casually, and tidied it in front of the mirror. Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

No matter who looked at it, they could not tell that the capable and strong boy in the mirror was just a sickly boy more than half a year ago.

His change is not huge, but comparable to a rebirth.

"With the superior method of tempering blood and qi, plus medicinal materials, how long will it take for blood and qi to be fully developed?"

Watching Liu Qing leave, Li Yuan closed the door, turned his wrist and took out the long-handled training hammer, and slowly practiced the military way of fighting and killing hammer in the outer room.

His movements were very slow, but there was a feeling of slowly pushing a big mill. Although the movements were not very intense, his physical strength was consumed. When the blood and qi circulated, the tendons and bones made a "clicking" sound.

This is the first killing move of the fighting and killing hammer, the 79th change.

In the hut, the long hammer danced lightly without any sound.

After taking the medicinal bath, when the blood and qi in his body were the most abundant, he practiced this change repeatedly until the blood and qi were exhausted and replenished,

and then he changed his movements and played the 80th change.

Crack~

Li Yuan could hear the sound of muscles and bones rubbing against each other, and the blood and qi in his arms were consumed quickly. After a while, he could not hold the hammer in his hand anymore.

The fighting method of fighting with the killing hammer seems simple, but it involves the tempering and transportation of blood, which consumes a lot of physical strength.

"Excellent martial arts are indeed difficult to learn, and these last two changes are indeed difficult to practice."

After a while, Li Yuan let out a long breath, his sweat dropped, but his eyes were bright:

"However, even if there are only eighty changes, I can barely master the first killer move of this superior martial art, 'Bing Strike'!"

After resting for a while, Li Yuan took the money and went out.

At this time, it was almost noon, but there was no one in the forging shop. Even the kitchen was closed, and Fatty Sun was nowhere to be seen.

"Even the blacksmith shop has a three-day holiday. It is indeed one of the three grand events set by the imperial court."

Li Yuan walked quickly.

Holidays with holidays must be relatively important.

This temple fair on March 28 is one day longer than the New Year holiday, which shows its importance.

On this day, there is no admission fee to the inner and outer cities of Gaoliu County. Every household is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. It is really much livelier than the New Year holiday.

The street was crowded with people, and the shouts of various vendors came and went. As soon as he left the weapon forging shop, Li Yuan smelled the aroma of various snacks and felt the vibration of the weapons in his hands.

"There must be some good things in such a large-scale temple fair, right?"

when!

when!

when!

At this time, there was a loud sound of gongs coming from a distance.

Li Yuan stopped and looked around, only to see the commotion of pedestrians at the end of the street. They dispersed and made way without anyone's instructions.

Sixteen big men lined up in two teams, with thick mulberry poles on their shoulders, carrying a huge altar.

"This is such a big battle..."

Li Yuan's eyelids narrowed and he stepped aside in advance.

At a glance, he saw gold, silver, glass, coral, agate and other treasures dotted outside the altar. The midday sun was very strong, making the altar sparkle.

Sixteen big men were carrying it, and dozens of people were crowding in front and behind to clear the way. Various flags and banners were held high. Wherever they passed, countless people saluted devoutly, and many fell to their knees.

"May the Bodhisattva bless me, and my Gaoliu County may have good weather and good harvests."

"The Bodhisattva gives generously, and the good men and women kowtow devoutly..."

"Bodhisattva bless me to make great profits!"

…

The cheers came from far and near.

There were people dressed up for temple celebrations, holding merit boxes, and countless people came forward enthusiastically, throwing copper coins or pieces of silver.

"That Bodhisattva..."

A gentle breeze blew the white gauze, revealing the statue behind it. It was a compassionate and divine-looking Bodhisattva with six eyes on his face and a thousand eyes on his body.

Li Yuan only glanced at it and then looked away.

"No wonder it's called the Thousand-Eyed Bodhisattva. This carving is really lifelike. The eyes all over his body would scare people to death if they saw them..."

Li Yuan almost suffered from trypophobia. He really admired the craftsman who carved this statue.

He took a few steps back to avoid those temple blessings that seemed not to be trifled with. When he was about to leave, he suddenly clenched his fists and raised his head in surprise.

Look at the team passing by two meters away.

This Bodhisattva statue...
