Zheng Qiu's recovery was relatively slow this time, and he didn't wake up until the third day. When he woke up, he felt so weak that he couldn't even sit up straight, as if someone had sucked his bones away.

Zheng Qiu leaned on the head of the bed, grandpa brought a towel to wipe his face, seeing his grandfather's worried expression, he opened his mouth to comfort him: "Grandpa, don't worry, I'll be fine in a few days, this is the relationship of cultivation." ”

"You should also pay attention to your body when you practice, your face is so bad, did you not listen to your master's words, and you made a mistake in your practice?"

"Grandpa, I'm very obedient, master......"

Click, the door was pushed open, and Master Ming Zong walked into the house with a big bamboo basket: "Zheng Zhisong, you put ...... Oh, apprentice, you're awake!"

He put down the bamboo basket and walked to the bed.

Grandpa immediately stood up and took the basin out of the way.

Master Ming Zong sat on the edge of the bed and pulled Zheng Qiu's hand to check his pulse. Zheng Qiu's pulse was steady, but not as strong as normal, and the shriveled muscles in his body also returned to their original shape, but they were loose when pinched.

In this way, the recovery ability of the "Wood Spirit" is still limited, and it is okay to make minor repairs, and the "Wood Spirit" can't manage such a large amount of damage yesterday.

Seeing the apprentice's pale face, Master Mingzong was not worried at all, he took out a large bowl from the basket, inserted chopsticks and brought it to the apprentice.

"Apprentice, the master brought you lunch, big supplement!"

Zheng Qiu looked down at the bowl in the master's hand, this bowl was too big, it was similar to the wooden basin where he washed his face, the bowl was full of green paste, and it was not delicious at first glance.

Zheng Qiu picked up the chopsticks and found that the paste was sticky and thick, and long threads were drawn between the chopsticks and the bowl.

He swallowed his saliva, frowned, and said, "Master, this is also ...... That's too much. He didn't dare to say that it looked disgusting, so he made another excuse.

How do you know that Master Mingzong didn't understand what Zheng Qiu meant at all, and he also stretched out his hand and pushed the bowl in front of Zheng Qiu: "You are weak now, you need to make up for it, you see, the master grinds all the herbs into a paste, just to make you digest well." Eat fast, eat fast. ”

The master stared like this, Zheng Qiu couldn't hide if he wanted to, eat it, he couldn't eat it anyway, he bit his teeth, closed his eyes and brought the bowl to his mouth.

Vomit...... As soon as he took a bite, Zheng Qiu spit it out, this paste was not only sticky, but also slippery and chewy, swallowing it in his throat was like swallowing a caterpillar.

"Well, that's not going to work, it's all good. Master Mingzong shook his head again and again, very dissatisfied with the apprentice's performance.

Zheng Qiu wiped his mouth and hurriedly explained: "Master, I, I didn't mean it, it's just that this thing is disgusting to eat, I ......"

"How can you be nauseous, which one of these is not a precious tonic," Master Mingzong snatched the bowl in his apprentice's hand, picked up a chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth, "Look, eat like this, you will definitely not ......"

As soon as the paste picked up by the chopsticks was put into his mouth, Master Mingzong froze there, his face was pale, the muscles in the corners of his eyes were constantly twitching, and the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together.

Zheng Qiu could see that the master's throat was stirring repeatedly, and the green tendons on the side of his neck were rising one by one, and it took a long time for the master to let out a breath and finish what he hadn't said just now.

"Absolutely not...... No nausea. ”

After saying this, Master Mingzong raised his hand and secretly wiped away the tears squeezed out of the corners of his eyes, and scolded vigorously in his heart: "What kind of thing is this, it's too unpalatable, and the harmful master almost made a fool of himself." Next time, you must not demonstrate in person, and if you want to vomit, let the apprentice vomit. ”

Thinking of this, Master Ming Zong left the room with the bowl, and after a while, he returned to the bedside.

"Apprentice, this time it's absolutely delicious, mix it before eating. ”

Zheng Qiu took the bowl and found that it was sprinkled with white powder, he stretched out his index finger and dipped it a little and put it in his mouth, sweet, salty, salty, salt and sugar.

Would it be delicious to put so much salt and sugar?" He looked up and looked at the master with a questioning look.

The master straightened up and said categorically: "It's absolutely delicious, I've already tasted it, and there is no problem." You'll have to eat clean before I come back. ”

After speaking, Master Ming Zong avoided Zheng Qiu's gaze and ran out of the house.

Zheng Qiu looked at the big bowl in front of him, his expression was more ugly than crying, from the previous herbs to the water in the porcelain bottle, and then to the medicinal paste this time, the master made things worse and worse every time. He even suspected that one day, the master would make a bite of food that would cause him to vomit blood and die.

But these medicinal pastes can't be eaten either, and finally Zheng Qiu thought of a way, using two large basins of water to melt these medicinal pastes, and then pinched his nose and drank them sixteen times. Although the dissolved potion tasted weird, at least it tasted acceptable.

Not to mention, the effect of the medicinal paste prepared by the master is really good, before the evening, Zheng Qiu regained his strength, and after sleeping until the next morning, he completely returned to his usual state.

However, the hardships suffered this time were all worth it, and Zheng Qiu finally refined his strength, even if it was only a very small trace of his strength.

This was discovered after he entered a state of introspection, except for the wood spirit that he saw every day, he saw a trace of mist floating alone in the corner of the dantian, the mist was faint, and it seemed to dissipate at any time.

This mist was slightly reddened, very obedient, Zheng Qiu wanted it to move, it would move as much as he wanted. Then, according to the way the master instructed, he pasted this trace of qi cultivated with the "Snake Devouring Body Sutra" to the "Wood Spirit".

As the master said, the "wood spirit" did not react to this trace of energy, and remained motionless, which was like a reddish silk thread pasted on pale green cotton thread.

Then, it is the process of driving the "wood spirit" through the meridians. When the week was over, Zheng Qiu noticed a new change, the reddish aura was slowly fading its color, and it was mixed with the white mist on the outermost side of the "Wood Spirit".

He carefully separated the qi energy, left the dantian, and hid it in the sea of qi.

Opening his eyes, he recounted the introspective situation to his master: "Master, I have really refined my qi! I have already stored it in the sea of qi, and I am very obedient. ”

"Has the qi been transformed by the wood spirit?"

Zheng Qiu scratched his head and replied, "I don't know very well, the color has changed, it was pale red at first, and then it became white." ”

Ming Zong picked up the pen and wrote down the color changes on the paper that the apprentice said, and then he removed the wooden board in the patio and revised the practice schedule on it.

"It's a good thing to be able to refine qi, and the result of this transformation seems to be unknown now. Apprentice, you practice according to this newly written routine, and strive to fill a meridian with energy before autumn. ”

Master Ming Zong opened the scroll of the "Snake Devouring Body Sutra" again, and after studying it for a while, he said, "Hmm...... The effect of this exercise to extract flesh and blood is too strong, and it will take you two days to recover, which is too slow. ”

He tore through the blank paper and wrote down a prescription: "You should take herbs according to this prescription before exercising, this should reduce the side effects......
