Chapter 23: Wholesale of Kung Fu, Nine Prohibitions of Burning Blood! 【Please vote】
The old man's home is in a market in the west of the city.
This is a large courtyard with three entrances. It is empty and he is the only one living there. There are many strange herbs planted in the vegetable garden, which are green even in the ice and snow.
"Don't walk around, there's a trap!"
The old man gave a reminder and walked into a side room!
Wei Han followed him in, following his steps and avoiding many unknown traps.
I discovered that this was a large study room, filled with numerous books, ranging from secret books on martial arts to various storybooks and miscellaneous books.
"You are the first person to enter my study." The old man dropped his bag, handed over a book, and said, "Look for what you want to buy. There is a catalog! The handwritten copy of the power training method is 50 to 100 taels per copy. The price varies. Large quantities are discounted!"
“It’s so expensive!”
Wei Han muttered secretly in his heart and started to flip through the books.
If a poor scholar were to copy a handwritten copy of a martial arts manual, he would only earn a few dozen coins at most, but it could be sold for dozens or even hundreds of taels, which is more profitable than robbery.
But this is also his ability!
Ordinary people cannot find so many authentic copies of the techniques.
This old man must have been a ruthless person when he was young.
"Senior, I need 10 books on body-building and strength-enhancing methods, one book each on fist, kick, sword, hidden weapon, body movement, and claw skills, as well as a few books on explosive secret techniques. Do you have any recommendations? Also, do you have any method to restrain the weirdness?" Wei Han asked.
"Why do you need so many strength-building methods?" The old man frowned.
"I heard that the limit of training strength is more than a thousand pounds, so I want to find a few more books to practice. It is said that it can consolidate the foundation." Wei Han said deliberately.
"That's right!" The old man not only did not doubt it, but nodded and said, "The strength limit of the children of aristocratic families and many wealthy families is not a thousand pounds. You think practicing more skills can indeed increase the limit, but it is too time-consuming. If you don't have enough resources and talent, you'd better give up early."
"Well, you can choose "Tiger Roaring in Eight Directions", "Devil Ape Body Strengthening Technique", "Eighteen Diamond Techniques", "Teng Snake Swallowing the Sky Technique", "Bull Demon Sutra"..."
The little old man kept taking things from the bookshelf!
After a while, he threw ten secret books in front of Wei Han.
"Although these are not the best body-building methods, they are ten or a hundred times better than the Five Animals Technique you practice!" The old man looked at him with a smile, as if he had seen through everything.
Wei Han was not surprised either. He bowed and said, "Thank you, senior. Do you have any other recommendations?"
"Of course there is!" The old man continued to take out a copy of the secret manual and said, "This one is 'Eighteen Swords Covering the Sea'. It is a very good sword technique that can be practiced from the strength training level to the skin refining level. Each sword is more powerful than the last, and the power is quite fierce!"
"This book 'Flying Sand and Stone Sword' is also a good thing, but I don't recommend you to learn it in the strength training realm. This sword has strong energy and it is easy to hurt yourself!"
"This is a great book. It's called 'Vajra Arhat Fist'. I seized it from a bald donkey I killed a few years ago. I won't sell a handwritten copy for less than 300 taels. If you want to learn hidden weapons, you can get this 'Raining Rain'. Among the body movements, 'Shadow Changing' is the best. As for claw skills, I recommend you learn 'Gold Piercing and Stone Splitting Power'!"
The old man introduced it in a rambling manner.
It's like showing off one's trophies.
Wei Han has been practicing martial arts for nearly two months and has learned some common sense about martial artists.
The strength training state is the most basic level of a warrior. This level basically focuses on strengthening the body and rarely wastes time practicing fist, kick and sword techniques. Even if you want to practice, you will only practice briefly.
Therefore, all the boxing and kicking techniques that the old man took out were suitable for practicing in the Skin Refining Realm, and their prices were more expensive than the previous ten books on body-building techniques.
In the end, the old man recommended 10 books on body-building methods, one book each on swords, fists, kicks, body movements, hidden weapons, and claw skills, as well as a book on explosive forbidden techniques - "Nine Forbidden Techniques of Burning Blood"!
"This forbidden life-threatening technique is not simple!" The old man said with a proud look on his face, "It has no restrictions on cultivation level and is very easy to practice. It is a good thing passed down by the Demon Sect in the past. It can burst out strength by burning one's own blood and essence."
"The Nine Blood Burning Prohibitions represent nine levels. The first prohibition doubles the strength, the second prohibition triples it, and so on. Legend has it that the ninth prohibition can burst out nine times the strength. Unfortunately, I only have the first three prohibitions!"
Wei Han couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard that.
Isn't this the good thing he has always dreamed of?
The first three bans are also good, at least they can triple the power, right?
"However!" the old man kindly reminded, "This forbidden technique is extremely harmful and lasts for a very short time. You must not use it unless you are desperate. Otherwise, you will be seriously injured and need to recuperate for several months, or die on the spot."
"Thank you for the reminder, Senior. I will use this forbidden technique with caution."
Wei Han answered calmly.
But deep down I didn't agree with it and even wanted to laugh.
It's just burning blood. Would he be afraid if others are afraid?
For others, this is a forbidden technique, and using it will result in death or injury.
But for Wei Han, this is just a basic attack skill, and he can use it for fun when he has nothing to do.
"Finally!" The old man frowned and said, "It is difficult for ordinary people to come into contact with the weird. Buddhists and Confucian scholars do have methods to restrain it, but the true method is hard to find. I don't have it here. But if a warrior has full blood and qi, it is said that he can hurt the weird with his blood and qi. You can figure it out yourself."
"Thank you for your advice, senior." Wei Han clasped his fists politely and said, "Could you please calculate how much silver is in total?"
"I like you today, kid. How about this!" The old man said cheerfully: "10 books on body building will be 60 taels each, 7 books on fist and kick skills will be 150 taels each, and the forbidden blood burning technique will be 500 taels each, a total of 2150 taels!"
"Don't think it's too expensive. I'm telling you the truth! It's just that you have a sharp eye. If other people were to buy martial arts on the black market, they would definitely not be able to buy these good things. At most, they would buy those common goods on the street."
Wei Han actually believed this.
Because he had personally checked out the secret manuals at all the stalls, the old man's were better than others, and they were guaranteed to be authentic.
This price may seem sky-high, but it’s actually quite a bargain!
"Thank you, senior!"
Wei Han didn't bargain and just took out the banknote to pay the bill.
Last time he spent 1,200 taels at Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, and this time he spent another 2,150 taels.
Now his little treasury was completely empty.
Only two 50-tael silver notes and 12 taels of change were left in his empty pocket.
If the old man had offered a higher price, he would probably have to buy one or two fewer books before he could settle the deal.
"Kid, is there anything else? If not, get out of here!" The old man counted the banknotes happily and waved his hand to send him away without even raising his head.
Wei Han put away the secret book, bowed and said: "May I know what your name is, Senior? If I make a breakthrough, I'm afraid I will have to bother you again."
"Why ask my name? Just call me Tie Lao." The old man looked him up and down before saying, "If you want to buy Skin Refining Realm and Blood Refining Realm skills in the future, you can come to me directly. Since you are so straightforward, I will definitely not give you inferior goods."
"Okay! I'm Miao Renfeng!" Wei Han clasped his fists and said proudly, "If you have the forbidden method behind the Nine Blood Burning Forbidden Methods, please keep it for me. I am willing to buy it at a high price."
"Uh-huh, get out of here!"
The old man waved his hands impatiently.
Wei Han then turned around and walked away, quickly disappearing into the night.
Although the expenses tonight were not small, I was able to safely purchase so many martial arts techniques and secret skills, which was definitely a great and rewarding event.
Although he didn't buy the method to control the weirdness, Wei Han was still in a good mood. After confirming that no one was following him, he quietly returned home.
The only regret is that the safety measures he had painstakingly prepared were not used, so he was unable to make a fortune by stealing the corpse.
The new book is not very popular, so I’m asking for all kinds of support. Your support is my motivation to keep writing! !
