It's night.

In a shantytown in Zhonghai City, a single-family bungalow, a white lamp is lit in a bedroom of more than 10 square meters, a casserole is stewed on the induction cooker, the sound of water is boiling, and white smoke is rising.

Ye Ning stepped forward and opened the lid of the pot, and suddenly, a hot breath mixed with the rich medicinal fragrance came to his face, he reached out and fanned his face, and saw that the black soup in the pot was as thick as a pulp, and couldn't help but smile happily.

turned off the fire, and when the casserole cooled slightly, Ye Ning couldn't wait to pick up the "Gollum" and drink it, until there was not a drop of soup left, then he soundproofed it heartily, wiped the corners of his mouth with his backhand, and then didn't even blink his eyelids, he poured the base material in the casserole into the color bucket, which was Ganoderma lucidum, angelica, borneol and other medicinal materials with the effect of nourishing and awakening the gods.

Then, Ye Ning quickly took off his clothes and pants, and after turning off the lights, he went to bed and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his hands made a strange handprint in front of him, his chest rose and fell slightly, and between breath inhalation and exhalation, he soon entered a state of circulation, and the room fell into silence.

As time passed slowly, through the faint moon that came in through the window, he could vaguely see that a faint true qi was escaping from Ye Ning's body, and at the same time, sweat was constantly oozing out of the pores of his body...

People who practice martial arts, true qi is fundamental, from the first wisp of true qi born in the body during the training period, and then the acquired period, the congenital period, is a long process in which the true qi in the body is gradually filled and full, and evolves from a gaseous state to a liquid state, and then enters the condensation period, the true qi and blood are fused, condensed and compressed to form a solid Dan body, and at the same time, the physical body is continuously strengthened and refined, and the qualitative transformation is completed, so that it is qualified to spy on a higher realm, the Jindan period... Judging by the thinness of Ye Ning's true qi at this time, it seems that he can enter the acquired period.

"Ahem. I don't know how long it took, Ye Ning, who was like an old monk in a steady state, suddenly coughed violently, almost wanting to spit out his internal organs, and the true qi around his body instantly dissipated, and after a while, he was relieved, and a strange red tide surged up on his originally flesh-colored face.

Ye Ning slowly opened his eyes, while adjusting his breathing, he endured the bursts of colic in his body because of the backlash of the three seals, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, touched the seemingly mottled jade pendant on his chest, and his heart was filled with a trace of indescribable complexity, half a year ago in the big battle at the top of the Heavenly Peak, although he fought two tough opponents to serious injuries, but he also fell off the cliff because of extreme overdraft, if it weren't for a strange energy transmitted by this jade pendant to protect his heart, he would have become a dead man long ago, and he would not have woken up after floating on the sea for seven days and nights。

"Old man, seventeen years ago, you and I first met, you gave me a book that didn't even have a name, and then I took care of your eating and drinking for seven years, how can we be even, ten years ago, you gave me a medical practice notes that the dead are not worth their lives, I took care of you for five years to eat and drink, why are we clear, five years ago, when you left, you left this piece of garbage jade pendant and a rusty short sword, that was you forced to me, I don't owe you. ”

There was a touch of deep remembrance and sentimentality in his eyes, and the mockery at the corner of Ye Ning's mouth gradually expanded, and he muttered softly: "The ten-year covenant has passed half of it unconsciously, old man, in order to find those three things for you all these years, I have been full of grievances and hatreds all over the world, and I have dragged a group of brothers and sisters into the water, I deserve your 'Brother Ye', don't worry, as long as I still have a breath in my mission, I don't think you look like a short life, don't miss the appointment then..."

Gritting his teeth and spitting out the last few words, Ye Ning breathed a long sigh of relief, suppressed the surging in his heart, and the excess emotions on his face were also swept away, leaving only iron-like perseverance, the ten-year covenant, for him, was a promise to the bad old man who was both good and evil, also a teacher and a friend, who had been with him for more than ten years, and called himself "Brother Ye" one by one, but his face was not red and his ears were not red.

A man promises, no regrets, no need to be sentimental, sigh all night, with a tenacious and brave heart, even if the sword mountain is a sea of fire, and the blue spring falls, although there are tens of millions of people, I will go.

Calming down, Ye Ning did not forcibly operate the exercises to promote, only exhaled evenly, and let the medicinal power gradually penetrate into the internal organs, according to the record in the medical notes, if he wants to recover from this "ruined wall" body, he must go through three stages of gradual recuperation, just like a seriously ill person, he must be fed porridge first, and then he can eat strong medicine.

The first stage of recuperation is a total of ten times, which is made up of eight flavor herbs mixed regardless of the main and secondary, and the grade requirements for the medicinal materials themselves are not very high, and the second stage of recuperation is a total of five times, and the three main medicines are all ordinary grade three or above, and then equipped with five kinds of low-grade auxiliary drugs, and the last stage of recuperation is to directly take two flavors of ordinary grade two medicinal materials.

This is a long process like peeling back the cocoon, and according to Ye Ning's conservative estimate, it will take at least a year.

Tonight is the ninth dose of medicine in the first stage, take it again after three or five days, the first stage of recuperation is complete, Ye Ning is still more satisfied with this efficiency, after all, it has only been more than three months since he settled in Zhonghai City, he was penniless when he was seriously injured and smuggled back to China, until now he is still an unemployed young man who does not pay social security, relying on online games, mahjong and other side income, while solving the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation, he can also bear the cost of taking medicine at a time of no less than 4,000, which can be regarded as a "miracle".

Of course, the actual value of the old men's watch on his wrist that can't even soak in sea water will not be less than seven figures, but it is the three-flavor main medicine that he left for the second stage of recuperation, a sufficient amount of mortal third-grade medicinal materials, usually between hundreds of thousands and millions, most of them are still priceless, as for the cost of the third stage of recuperation, it is not in his consideration for the time being, because when it comes to the second-level level of mortal products, the price is not uncommon for millions or even tens of millions, and it is basically impossible to see it in the circulation market, only some high-end auctions, the trade fair will appear as the finale, and most of them are just a boo, and the owner has no intention of selling it at all, even if the transaction is sky-high.

The great man said that crossing the river by feeling the stones, the things in the world, after all, are only a few, and it is not too late to worry about it when it comes to that step.

Half an hour later, the pain in the body had disappeared, and the medicinal power was also absorbed by the viscera, Ye Ning spent another five breaths to meditate, then jumped out of bed, took a shower in the bathroom of less than three square meters, put on a pair of beach pants, sat shirtless in front of the desk, and began to be busy for his livelihood.

On the desk,There are two second-hand desktop assembly computers,The screen is clearly the game interface of "Glory of the Demon Domain" and "Battle",The former is an online game that fights monsters and upgrades,The official recycles equipment with soft coins,And the latter is a competitive online game,Both are among the most popular in the current market。

As soon as "Glory of the Demon Domain" was launched, Ye Ning Lima called friends in the union, and immediately started the journey of annihilating the major bosses, and on the other side, he "conquest" was targeted before he logged in.

"Accompany me to the arena, my aunt and grandmother are so easy to stay all night, you dare to say the word 'no', and you will break off your friendship from now on. The female magician with the ID is: Angel Elf seems to have appeared out of thin air, and has made several ultimates in a row at Ye Ning's warrior with the ID of "Brother Ye" in the game, and the picture is extremely gorgeous.

This "angel elf" is Ye Ning's most staunch fan and owner in the "battle", although he has not yet made an appointment with the deity offline, but he has also exchanged several phone calls to confirm that it is not a shemale pretending, of course, this is not the point, for Ye Ning, the actual economic benefits generated during the game time are the key...

Ye Ning picked up a cigarette and typed in a few words: "It's rude, play by yourself." ”

Seeing that the brutality was ineffective, the angel elf changed his face and began to be coquettish: "Brother Ye, my good brother, can't I be wrong?"

Ye Ning replied lukewarmly: "Well, the son can be taught, since it is an elf sister meeting, I, as an elder brother, am embarrassed to refuse a thousand miles, but let's say it first, the night fee will be five hundred, uh, at most, I will give you a six percent discount, three hundred..."

The angel elf showed a disdainful expression: "Wealth fan, my aunt and grandmother have been completely defeated by you, hurry up, just now a guy knocked me out twice, and it must not be overnight to find the field, otherwise, you don't want to get any of them." ”

That's a good deal.

Next, Ye Ning devoted himself to the game, two keyboards, two mice, operated freely under his palms, all night, only took the time to refill two cups of boiling water halfway, went to the toilet once, and unconsciously, the night outside the window began to fade...

With the last SOLO in the "Battle" KO opponent with full blood, Ye Ning pushed the keyboard and stretched lazily, at the same time, the mobile phone "Didi" screamed, picked it up and took a look, three hundred and fifty yuan into the account, this is the result of tonight's "Glory of the Demon Domain", there is a big housekeeper in the union, knowing Ye Ning's monkey's anxious temperament, so he didn't wait for the treasure exposed by the boss to be cashed in with the official, so he paid in advance.

Ye Ning nodded with satisfaction, looked at the watch, and typed in a string of words: "Elf sister, you've been crazy enough tonight, it's almost six o'clock." ”

The angel elf was obviously unsatisfied: "Nineteen consecutive wins, four full-blood KOs, wow, you're amazing, hey, it seems like an all-nighter has only been an hour, Brother Ye, can you go online early tonight, I won't have time to start tomorrow." ”

Ye Ning rolled his eyes, and his fingers were flying: "I guess it's not going to work tonight, I generally control the online no more than three times a week, I'm afraid of addiction, I can't delay the business in life, that, three hundred or transfer to my WeChat." ”

The interest of the angel elf was extinguished by a basin of cold water: "Can you chat, why is there only Grandpa Mao in your head, who has seen reality, but I have never seen you so realistic." ”

Ye Ning said righteously: "No way, life is forced, you Brother Ye and I also want to find a white rich beauty to support, and live a decent life with fine clothes and jade food from now on, but unfortunately, the dream is ruthless and plump, but the reality is very skinny." ”

The angel elf cried poorly: "Can you save half of it, I will keep some money for food." ”

Ye Ning decisively refused: "No!"

Not long after, the elf's avatar flashed on WeChat, and Ye Ning saw that the transfer amount was actually five hundred, and he couldn't help but sigh, and replied with the words "Xie Elf Sister Reward".

The angel elf dozed off: "Grandma has to go to sleep, oh yes, next weekend's "Battle" official offline event, will you go then? Let me also take a look at your dignity to see if there is a word 'money' written on your face." ”

The word "renegotiate" was sent away, Ye Ning turned off the computer, got up and did a set of movements to twist his waist and expand his chest, before turning over and getting on the bed, sitting in front of the computer for a night, the hard work is a little hard, but the income of 850 yuan still does not need to be taxed, which is more efficient than 80% of the white-collar class, which is considered a lot of gains.
