It got dark early today, but at 11 p.m., lights were lit inside and outside the Wang residence.
After making several marks in the courtyard and the house, Li Qinglin closed the doors and windows, identified the direction, and walked towards the guest rooms in the south wing.
Master Fuwu seems to have other purposes.
Li Qinglin knew it very well.
After all, there is no good without a reason. After this period of contact, Master Fu Wu is not a bad person. He can even be said to be dedicated to his duties when it comes to teaching martial arts.
But he is by no means a kind-hearted person.
Master Fu Wu might want to use him, but Li Qinglin still chose to go.
After all, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, and he is not afraid of what Master Fu Wu is thinking.
He wanted to see what Master Fu Wu was up to!
The snow and wind are blowing hard.
The snow on the eaves condensed into columns.
The South Wing guest rooms are a row of neatly arranged buildings planted with tall plants such as locust trees and willow trees.
It has its own gate and courtyard, with red walls and black tiles. Just looking at the outside, it is much better than the courtyard where Li Qinglin and other insect-raising tenants live.
Following the instructions, Li Qinglin found Master Fu Wu's courtyard.
The door was ajar and Li Qinglin knocked lightly.
"Master Fuwu, it's me, Li Qinglin."
This time when he answered the door, Master Fu Wu's voice was no longer cold.
Instead, he walked over quickly, opened the door, and nodded to Li Qinglin.
“Here I come.”
After saying that, Master Fu Wu turned around and led the way.
Looking at this scene, Li Qinglin suddenly recalled the scene a month ago when he first went to the training ground to meet Master Fu Wu.
I felt as if it was just a day ago.
At this moment, just like this scene
After entering the house, Master Fu Wu motioned Li Qinglin to sit down.
He went to the inner room and came out after a moment, carrying a lacquered wooden tray.
Inside the tray, there was a secret book and a longbow.
Pushing the tray in front of Li Qinglin, Master Fu Wu said,
"The Five-sided Heavenly Will Sword, the ten-stone longbow, the bowstring is made from the tendons of a hundred-year-old python!"
"I can even teach you how to practice swordsmanship!"
Li Qinglin was stunned and almost didn't react.
He looked at the things on the tray and it was impossible for him not to be moved.
Restraining his excitement, Li Qinglin asked, "What do you want?"
Master Fu Wu smiled faintly and did not answer directly. Instead, he picked up the boiling hot tea on the table, took a sip and said,
"You should hide your shortcomings, right?"
Li Qinglin's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that he saw through my martial arts training? "Your strength should be greater than what you show! You are not born with brute force, but you are able to carry a tripod on your shoulders, and your strength is a thousand pounds!"
Li Qinglin immediately calmed down again.
He saw a little, but not much.
Li Qinglin showed astonishment, and a trace of panic flashed across his eyes, as if the secret he had hidden for a long time was revealed.
"You don't have to think too much. In such a large house, everyone is scheming against each other. If a servant like you rashly reveals your talent that far exceeds that of ordinary people, it will be a disaster rather than a blessing."
Master Fu Wu gestured to Li Qinglin to have some tea as well. He felt somewhat proud in his heart, thinking that he had seized the initiative in the conversation, and thus he began to speak.
Master Fu Wu is a martial artist hired by the Wang family. He is actually a disciple of Wu Lao Qing Xin Zhai, a Zhongcheng Taoist temple in the outer city of Feng County.
In Feng County, martial arts is valued. If we rank them by the strength and number of warriors, apart from the big families and government forces that take the top spot, below them are the large and small martial arts halls.
There are seven superior Taoist temples in Feng County, located in the inner city. All the disciples in the temples practice the superior martial arts.
Superior martial arts all have complete steps to lock the five gates of essence and nourish the spirit, and even include methods to open the gates of essence and spirit, cultivate a breath of clear air in the chest, gather the three flowers at the top of the head, and officially embark on the path of cultivating immortals.
Below that are the twenty-four middle-level martial arts halls located in the outer city. The highest level of martial arts in each hall is only middle-level martial arts.
Below them, there are countless inferior martial arts schools and idle savages, who huddle together for warmth, relying on inferior or even inferior martial arts to get around.
"My request is very simple. If you break through and become a martial artist in the future, you must reject the recruitment of Wang's residence and join my Five Elders Qingxinzhai."
When Master Fu Wu's voice came, Li Qinglin was not happy but worried.
So good? As far as Li Qinglin knew, not to mention the middle-level Taoist temples, even the lower-level Taoist temples would cost dozens of taels of silver to become a disciple.
Could this Wulao Qingxinzhai be some evil and deviant villain that everyone who defends morality wants to kill? "Then... on the way to register, you won't have to pass through places like 'West Market Ghost Gate', 'Water Monkey Ferry', and 'Shisan Niang Butcher Shop' in the name of traveling and collecting folk songs?" Li Qinglin asked tentatively.
The "Ghost Gate of West Market", "Water Monkey Ferry" and "Shisan Niang Butcher Shop" are all well-known dangerous places in the shantytowns, gathering many people from all walks of life, and there are also masters of spiritual cultivation in charge.
If you go there, your kidneys will definitely be injured!
“Cough cough cough…”
Upon hearing this, Master Fu Wu looked a little embarrassed and explained, "It's not that serious."
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
"However, the Five Elders Qingxinzhai does have some... drawbacks."
It is true that Wulao Qingxinzhai is a Zhongcheng Taoist temple, but its foundation is not very clean.
More than ten years ago, more than a dozen inferior gymnasiums and individual practitioners in the outer city felt that it would be difficult for a group of scattered people to achieve great things, so they formed an alliance by swearing an oath of blood.
No intermediate level skills? Not enough cultivation resources?
Then go steal, go rob! If you can't get the skills, just gather dozens of inferior skills and create them yourself! If you can't get the cultivation resources, then use everyone's strength and pour it into one person, and first make the leader a master of spiritual cultivation!
During this period, there will inevitably be blood and gore.
As a result, these people really made it! The leader at that time was quite talented and gifted. With a simple book of Qigong, "Qi Xing Ming", he absorbed the strengths of hundreds of schools along the way, removed the dross and retained the essence, and broke through to become a spiritual warrior.
The "Qi Xing Ming" for cultivation was also improved and optimized into the "Five Elders' Purifying Mind Inscription".
Since then, these people changed their appearance and established the Zhongcheng Daoguan Wulao Qingxinzhai, becoming one of the prominent forces in the outer city.
But here’s the thing…
"The Inscription of the Five Elders with a Pure Mind" has serious flaws.
The leader back then, now the master of the fast, has ruined himself! Every time he kills someone, he hurts himself first. He is in seclusion all day long, and he won't live for many days.
As for the other people in the room, who were practicing the "Five Elders' Pure Heart Inscription", every one of them had either gone astray, their tendons and veins were reversed, or were on the road to sudden death.
Hearing this, Li Qinglin reacted immediately.
Good, good, no wonder you came to recruit me because you saw that I was born with brute force and my strength and bones are far beyond that of ordinary people.
It turns out that he was attracted by my body and wanted to make me a guinea pig to take risks?
really.
Master Fu Wu said in a serious tone,
"I won't hide it from you. If you join the Five Elders Qingxinzhai, you will definitely practice this technique, which is extremely dangerous."
"If you don't want to, once you leave this door, just pretend that our conversation never happened."
"But if you accept this tray, there will be no turning back."
Hearing this, Li Qinglin was silent for a long time, his eyes flickering with some struggle.
There was a hint of wooing in Master Fu Wu's tone.
"Of course, if you have the opportunity in the future and encounter some genius treasure, your body will change. If you gain talents like sword bones, iron kidneys, and heart palace, you may have the opportunity to carry on the tradition, improve the shortcomings of your practice, and even become a master of spiritual cultivation."
Heart Palace?
How does this relate to my heart toad?
Li Qinglin's heart moved.
As for how to choose, there is actually no suspense.
Li Qinglin has a bell toad clone outside that can feed back mercury blood, and a heart toad inside, whose hematopoietic recovery ability is beyond ordinary people.
Going astray and having your tendons and veins reversed?
I can survive even if the injury is unintentional.
It's just a flesh wound, why bother about it? !
"Okay, I agree!"
