The order of tempering the body is also from the inside to the outside. Li Yiru arranged the medicine bags in order, preparing to use the medicine to temper the body in the evening.
She even prepared a handful of reeds so that she could bury her entire body in the water without leaving any dead corners.
Finally everything is ready and the evening is here.
This time, she lit the firewood in the backyard, boiled water in a clay stove, and at the same time cleaned the small bathtub and put the medicine bag in it.
She poured in pot after pot of boiling water, using weak fire spiritual power to maintain the temperature. The water continued to boil, simmering the medicine bags while continuing to boil water on the other side.
Suddenly, a woman's disgusted voice came from behind the room, "What are you burning? There is so much smoke, it never ends!" It was the voice of senior sister Lin Chunfang.
Li Yiru was startled by her sudden voice. She was now accustomed to releasing her spiritual awareness, but she strictly controlled it within 2 meters around herself, otherwise it would be a bit exhausting.
After hearing her voice, Li Yirou felt as if she was being spied on. Perhaps Lin Chunfang wanted to see what she was doing. Li Yirou suppressed her discomfort and ignored it.
But she was so tolerant that Lin Chunfang felt it was not enough. She jumped into her small yard without any courtesy. Seeing her boiling medicine bags, her nose twitched twice, and she realized that she had just started to temper her body.
"How long will it take to cook like this!" Lin Chunfang said with disgust, "Get out of here!"
Li Yiru was displeased by her repeated interruptions, but after hearing her say this, she realized that she was a person with a kind heart. She smiled at her and put out the fire.
Lin Chunfang directly used the water-based spell to create half a pool of water, and then used the fire-based spell. After about 1 minute, the water in the pool began to boil, and the medicine bag was also surging in the water. After about another 5 minutes, the water in the pool had been soaked in the medicinal herbs and turned into dark brown.
She continued to melt the water until the bathtub was full, steam billowed up, and the whole yard was filled with the fragrance of medicine.
While she was busy, Li Yirou keenly noticed that the faint feeling of probing had been there until Lin Chunfang boiled the medicine.
She pretended to know nothing, but she also realized that this spiritual consciousness did not come from Lin Chunfang. Perhaps her master was disturbed by the noise and came to see what they were doing, but he only looked for a while and then withdrew.
"Take off your clothes and go in!" Lin Chunfang's attitude was still very bad, as if she was scolding a pet puppy.
Li Yiru calmed herself down and told herself not to care about her attitude, as she meant well.
But he has done so much for her, she can't be unhappy about it. Many people are gentle on the surface but do evil things behind her back. No one is as kind as Lin Chunfang who is innocent. She can't ignore her kindness just because of her bad attitude.
Even the mercy from a superior can be of real help to her. She does not indulge in useless dignity, but seeks practical benefits.
"You..." Lin Chunfang uttered a word when she saw her taking off her clothes, her eyes full of surprise and a slight pity.
Li Yirou lowered her head and found that her original body was covered with scars from being beaten by Li Chang and Zhang Cuicui. "It's okay now, senior sister." She smiled.
In Lin Chunfang's eyes, this was just feigning strength. The younger sister was beautiful, like a delicate flower, swaying and struggling in the wind and rain, trying to survive, and she couldn't help but feel pity for her.
Junior sister must have been very pitiful when she was in the mortal world... If the injuries were caused by training, they can be restored without leaving any trace under the nourishment of spiritual energy, so there is always no sense of reality. Only the injuries suffered in the past will remain on the body.
The dense scars covered her thin body. Because her hair was wet, Lin Chunfang saw the deep mark extending into the hair on her forehead, which was covered by her hair. She was shocked.
"After tempering the body, these scars will disappear." Lin Chunfang's tone softened.
Lin Chunfang had been practicing for a long time without making any progress and was feeling very annoyed. He also smelled the smoke and wanted to find fault with Li Yiru and see what she was doing.
Seeing the stupid method she used, he was even more annoyed and thought it was a disgrace to the monks, so he helped her.
When she saw the scars all over her body, all the complicated and chaotic negative emotions she had towards her disappeared. How could someone live such a miserable life at such a young age?
She suddenly remembered that every time she faced her junior sister, she was always arrogant and always blamed her endlessly. She felt a little uncomfortable, but didn't know how to express it. She said, "You go to the bar, I'm leaving." and left as if escaping.
Li Yirou never ignored her wonderful expressions at every moment. After she climbed over the wall and left, she raised her eyebrows and smiled. This Lin Chunfang was too easy to understand. She was an inner sect disciple, and she had never seen such a simple person.
She pulled out a reed and buried her whole body in the water, but she was wondering in her mind, can scars really disappear, including the wound that she had been deliberately covering with her hair, which was so deep that the bone was visible and took the original owner's life?
The process of tempering the body is not pleasant. When practicing, the meridians inside the body are dull and painful, but when tempering the body, it feels like thousands of needles are piercing the body at the same time, and the pain is constantly escalating.
Li Yiru gritted her teeth and persevered, the pain making her question her life. Her tears fell into the pool and were drowned by the water, and no one noticed.
Finally, after persisting for about 10 minutes, the pain gradually began to subside. Li Yiru emerged from the water, took a deep breath, and saw Taxue squatting by the pool looking at her.
"I'm fine." She said vaguely while biting the reed in her mouth, and then sank into the water again.
The water gradually became colder, and Li Yiru was finally able to come out, dry herself, and put on her clothes. The scars on her body had indeed faded, and her skin had regained some of its original whiteness.
After draining the water, Li Yiru cleaned up and carried Taxue back to the house.
"Taxue, do you have any herbs? After I temper my body, I'll temper yours as well, okay?" She tapped Taxue's nose. "You're so small, it's very convenient. I can even use my magic power to cook them for you in a small pot."
Taxue meowed and rubbed against her, which must mean he agreed.
Li Yirou played with it for a while. The pain from the tempering made her more alert. She was originally very tired from running and other exercises every day, so she planned to take a nap. Now she was full of energy and didn't need to do that.
She seized the opportunity to meditate and practice again, and got up in the morning to practice weightlifting again. When it was almost time for dinner, she ran to the Deacon's Hall again.
The one on duty today was Li Qianxing. "Brother, I'd like to exchange my fasting pills for some charcoal, preferably smokeless. Do you have any?"
Li Qianxing no longer delayed, nor did he act arrogantly as usual. Instead, he adopted a serious and impartial attitude, and his speed increased a lot. He said that he could exchange it for a large basket of high-quality walnut charcoal for her.
"Sure, please help me, senior brother." Li Yirou handed over the fasting pill in her hand.
When I was reading the book "Spiritual Objects Volume", I also came across that walnut charcoal is made from walnuts. It is very precious in the mortal world, but it does not have any spiritual energy. It is recorded in the world of cultivation because some spiritual plants can use it to roast and stimulate its medicinal properties.
Walnut charcoal in the mortal world is generally made from bad walnuts, but in the world of cultivation, few people collect ordinary walnuts to eat. Good walnuts may also be used to make charcoal. The one Li Qianxing said is very good, so it is probably made from good walnuts. Only occasionally some cultivators will prepare some for roasting medicine, but it is not worth much.
The standards in the world of cultivation are different from those in the mortal world. Whether it is a person or an object, the higher the spiritual energy, the more expensive it is. Things without spiritual energy are worthless no matter how rare they are.
