Chapter 179: The Explosion
"Everyone's physique is different, so the duration of the medicinal bath is also different. However, in order to achieve the effect of strengthening the body, it must be soaked for at least three hours. Moreover, the medicinal bath is a very painful thing. You need to tell the disciples who are soaking in the medicinal bath in advance that if they can't hold on, there will be no change in their physique!"
"Disciple understands!"
Meng Yunbang thought about it, but couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Can disciples who take the Marrow Cleansing Pill still take a medicinal bath?"
"Yes, the Marrow Cleansing Pill is for cleansing the essence and marrow, while the medicinal bath is for strengthening the body and improving physical fitness. The two are not contradictory. However, after taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill, soaking in the medicinal bath will have little effect, so it is best to let other disciples soak in the medicinal bath first, and the disciples who take the Marrow Cleansing Pill can talk about it later!"
"Disciple understands!"
The ancestor did not give the marrow cleansing pill to everyone, but only gave it to disciples who were suitable for taking the marrow cleansing pill. Therefore, these medicinal baths should naturally be taken by disciples with weaker constitutions.
After all, the glory of a family does not only require a few elite disciples, but also requires overall strength!
When the disciples in the tribe heard that the tribe leader had prepared a medicinal bath for them, which could not only strengthen their bodies but also improve their physical constitutions, all of them were excited.
Their current strength is just average compared to real ancient martial artists, but very powerful compared to other ordinary people. They are truly not as good as the best but better than the worst. To be honest, they are really in an embarrassing situation!
Now there is a chance to become stronger and improve your physical condition, who wouldn’t be excited!
"The medicinal bath is very painful. Now that you have made the decision, you can't give up halfway!"
"Don't worry, Patriarch. I won't give up halfway!"
These are things prepared for them by the tribe, how could they be wasted? Even if they are in pain, they will definitely get through it!
Following Meng Yunbang's order, everyone entered the wooden barrel wearing only a simple undershirt.
When I first entered the wooden barrel, I didn’t feel anything special. I could only smell the special, unpleasant smell of medicinal herbs!
As time went by, the medicinal bath became hotter and the medicinal strength gradually took effect. Some people's faces were already flushed as they endured the scorching temperature in the bath. Their entire bodies felt like they were being bitten by hundreds of millions of insects and ants, causing unbearable itching.
Gradually, some people could no longer bear it, and in the end, they persevered because they wanted to gain even greater strength.
Meng Guanhe was also a disciple of this wave of medicinal baths. He wanted to give up, it was really too painful, but thinking of the worry in his father's eyes before he set off, he gritted his teeth and continued to persevere.
After all, he didn't want to disappoint the old man. The old man always yelled at him, but he loved him sincerely.
He didn't have the qualifications to practice martial arts, so the old man looked for magical medicines from heaven and earth to help him improve his qualifications. He was unwilling to practice martial arts, and the old man said that he was useless, but he didn't force him to practice martial arts well.
The reason why he argued with the old man was just to tell his father that even if he didn't learn martial arts, he could still live a carefree life and he was still the second young master of the Meng Group.
"ah!"
Meng Guanhe shouted loudly, and his whole body was as hot as red shrimps just out of the hot pot. The sweat on his face rolled down and dripped into the medicinal bath, and was instantly evaporated by the scorching temperature above the medicinal bath. Not only him, but many disciples in the square felt the same.
They gritted their teeth; they didn't want to give up halfway, and they wanted to improve their physical condition through this medicinal bath.
Time passed by minute by minute, and when the time was up, someone finally couldn't help but run out of the medicinal bath. This was the limit of what they could endure.
Of course, there are still people who continue to insist. The patriarch said that the longer they soak, the greater the improvement in their physical condition will be.
No one wants to be ordinary, so they are willing to endure the pain of the medicinal bath!
Meng Guanhe, who was thought to be unable to hold on for too long, unexpectedly held on for two days and two nights. Even though he was not the disciple who held on to the medicinal bath for the longest time, this time was still enough to rank among the best.
After taking the medicinal bath, the disciples felt the pure power in their bodies gradually rising. No one knew their own bodies better than themselves.
This was only the first medicinal bath, and they even regretted coming out too early. They thought that when it was their turn to take a medicinal bath next time, they would definitely last longer!
"Uncle, you're out!"
As soon as Meng Guanhe came out, he saw his relatives waiting outside the square. A smile flashed across his face and he strode forward, "Grandpa!"
"nice!"
The smile on Meng Yunbang's face was obvious. In fact, he did not expect at first that his grandson could persist for such a long time. After all, this child has always been spoiled and has never suffered. It is a miracle that he can persist until now!
"Uncle, you are awesome!"
"Thank you, Xixi, I think so too!"
"Where's my brother?"
"Your brother is still in there!"
Meng Guanhe raised his eyebrows, it seems that his elder brother’s qualifications are better than his!
It wasn’t discovered before, maybe it’s because there are too many impurities in the body. He said, how could a father be so bad to give birth to such a talented boy like Xixi!
"You just came out from inside, go back and wash up first!"
"Okay!"
He originally wanted to wait for his elder brother to come out, but then he thought better of it. Who knows when his elder brother will come out? What if it takes several days? He has a strong smell of medicine on his body, which is not unpleasant, but not very pleasant either. It would be better for him to go back and take a shower!
After returning to his own courtyard, he washed up thoroughly and finally felt relaxed all over. He looked at himself in the mirror and found that after such a bath, his skin seemed to have become better and smoother. Could it be that this medicinal bath also has the function of beautifying and nourishing the skin? This is too incredible, right?
The originally handsome face became even more handsome, and if you look closely, you can see some of the ancestor's heroic spirit between his brows.
Not long after Meng Guanhe came out, Meng Guanyi also came out. He only lasted three hours longer than Meng Guanhe.
Four days later, all the first batch of disciples who took the medicinal bath came out of the bath. This medicinal bath greatly improved the disciples' physiques and even increased their cultivation speed. Even if it was just a little bit, it was enough to make people who practiced Taoism ecstatic.
After the first wave, there was a second wave. The disciples who did not take a medicinal bath stretched their necks and waited, as they also wanted to improve their physical fitness.
As soon as the results of the medicinal bath came out, Meng Yunbang smiled so hard that he couldn't stop smiling. The smile on his face never stopped.
They were even more respectful to the ancestor Li Li, but except for the core disciples, the others still didn't know that their Meng family had an ancestor who had descended upon them. They just thought that Li Li was of a higher seniority in the family!
