Chapter 14: The Road to Return (Recommended!) )
Learn alchemy, describe the difference between alchemy and alchemy, and describe the way alchemy and internal strength cooperate
There are also cicadas in the world of Fullmetal Alchemist, and every summer they begin to cry out on the trees, making people who are already bored by the summer heat even more irritable!
"I said Liu Hong! Why don't you sweat at all! "Zhang Xiao is now sweating hot even if he is hiding in the coolest place behind the counter and blowing an electric fan. So when I saw Liu Hong sitting in his place reading quietly, and there was no trace of sweat, I couldn't help but ask the Nth question since the beginning of this summer.
Yes, Liu Hong has been in Xinguo for half a year! In the past six months, Liu Hong has been helping Zhang Xiao treat people in the hospital during the day, and at night he is either practicing qi or sensing dragon veins.
Seriously, it took Liu Hong almost half a year to sense the dragon vein, that is, he only sensed the dragon vein a few days ago!
Why? This is also to blame Liu Honghui's internal strength! Because of the relationship between internal forces, Liu Hong always sinks into his body first, and then senses the dragon veins through the Yongquan acupoint! The crustal energy that alchemy needs to sense is only sensed in half a month because of the down-to-earth relationship, but the energy required for alchemy is deep underground! How can Liu Hong's shallow internal force be felt? His internal strength can pass through the ground for two or three meters, which is not bad!
It's just that sensing the dragon vein is not something that can be solved by eating a single NZT-48! That requires its own feelings, NZT-48's increased mental speed can only be used as an aid! This is Liu Hong's cognition after taking a pill of NZT-48.
Liu Hongneng sensed that the dragon vein was still when he was cultivating the internal force a few days ago, and due to carelessness, he touched the internal force of the Sage Stone placed under the bed, and then the internal force that was rushed by the various negative situations in it diverged! However, this also made Liu Hong discover that the Sage's Stone would be absorbed by the Northern Spiritual Skill as an internal force!
Although Liu Hong just tried to absorb a trace and gave up! Because it's too dangerous!
Internal force is cultivated by the human body, pure, and under normal circumstances, it only contains a trace of will! That's when people unconsciously integrate into their internal strength! In this way, it is already necessary to let those who cultivate the Northern Spiritual Skill be cautious when absorbing internal power!
However, the energy of the Philosopher's Stone is directly refined by the human body and soul! Not to mention that energy and soul are entangled together, it is almost three or seven points! Energy Three, Soul Seven!
So after absorbing a trace of the energy of the Philosopher's Stone, it took Liu Hong more than half a night to refine it!
Liu Hong, who was frightened, did not continue to cultivate internal strength that night, but lay in the courtyard and looked up at the starry sky, knowing that the sun was rising!
At that moment, Liu Hong, who had only sensed the energy of the earth's crust, seemed to feel a trace of different energy!
The excited Liu Hongqiao dropped the work of the medical hall that day, and he felt it under the midsummer sun until the sunset, and he felt that energy again!
Different from the energy of the earth's crust, that kind of energy is thick at the same time, and there is a different sense of flow! And it was this flowing feeling that made Liu Hong confirm that he was feeling the dragon vein!
"The heart is calm and naturally cool!" Liu Hong's gaze never took his eyes off the alchemy.
"Don't give me all this nonsense!" Zhang Xiao slapped his hand on the counter: "I haven't punished you for your absenteeism a few days ago!" ”
"Punish me?" Liu Hong finally put down the alchemy in his hand: "I have treated so many people for you, what should you give me?" ”
"We haven't picked up a few people in our hospital, where is the consultation fee shared?" Zhang Xiao's eyes suddenly turned sharply, and at the same time he took the fan on the side and fanned himself hard: "Besides, the people you treat are all poor ghosts!" How much money is there! ”
"If Old Man Xue of Mi Xing has no money, I really don't know who has money!" Old man Xue of the rice store is the biggest rice shop boss in the Zhang family's territory! Yesterday at noon, he suddenly fainted from heat stroke near the Zhangjia Medical Center, and after being sent to the medical center, he was rescued by Liu Hong by pushing the uterus through blood.
When leaving, Old Man Xue politely left a lot of Tongyuan for Zhang Xiao, which happened to be seen by Liu Hong, so he said this today.
Zhang Xiao's fan paused for a moment: "It's just heat stroke, where will I give how much money!" ”
"Don't you know how dangerous heat stroke is at such an age?" Liu Hong looked at Zhang Xiao with disdain: "I don't want all the money before!" But what Old Man Xue gave you, just give it to me! ”
"What a joke! The previous ones don't add up to half of Old Man Xue's" Halfway through speaking, Zhang Xiao knew that he had missed his mouth: "Anyway, you can't take one more from me!" ”
"Shameless." In the end, Liu Hong could only give Zhang Xiao such an evaluation, but Liu Hong would not give up his interests: "I won't take one more, but I won't allow one less!" ”
Big-eyed staring? No, it's two pairs of eyes that are not too big or too small to look at each other! It's just the spark lightning and the dragon and tiger totem behind it.
"Why do you need money all of a sudden?" Suddenly, Zhang Xiao withdrew his gaze and slowly shook his fan.
"I feel the dragon vein!" Liu Hong paused slightly, then picked up the alchemy and looked at it. After the dragon vein can be felt, Liu Hong has been able to use alchemy, and now he is almost practical, and the knowledge has almost taken out Zhang Xiao in the past half a year.
"Really!" The fan that was shaking it stopped for a moment, then shook it again, but more slowly: "In that case, I don't force it." Next, the people who need to be treated in the hospital will be handed over to you. Usually I come here with some minor injuries and illnesses, and you can handle them. ”
"Thank you!" Liu Hong looked at the alchemy in front of him, but he didn't turn a page for a long time.
"Is the time decided?" Zhang Xiao suddenly slapped the fan a few times.
"Autumn is crisp, just in time for the road." Liu Hong finally turned the page of alchemy: "I don't want to try the feeling of winter rush again." ”
"Yes! It's too cold in winter! It's enough to be cold! Zhang Xiao suddenly came out from behind the counter, shaking a fan while walking to the back of the house: "I'm tired!" Go get some sleep. ”
Liu Hong didn't say anything, just silently watched the alchemy.
For half a year, there are two people in the hospital that doesn't have much business, and it's not a hostile relationship, so will there be no feelings?
In the next few months, the things in the medical hall were just like Zhang Xiao said, and all the patients were handed over to Liu Hong to deal with, so that Liu Hong's alchemy had a place to practice. And Liu Hong will not live up to Zhang Xiao's kindness, although he messed up the first few times, Liu Hong, who has internal strength, finally dealt with it, and did not smash the signboard of the Zhangjia Medical Center, and minor injuries and illnesses can be cured.
It wasn't until three months later, when the last patient who visited was cured, that Liu Hong sorted out everything in his position, and then handed over the alchemy to Zhang Xiao: "I won't be here tomorrow." ”
Zhang Xiao raised his eyes to look at Liu Hong, then reached into his arms and took out a small bag and put it on the table: "Deduct the fine for your previous absenteeism, and the rest of the money is not missing." ”
"What about tuition?" Liu Hong lifted the bag and threw it into the air, and then caught it again.
"There is no tuition, and books on alchemy can be bought in bookstores." Zhang Xiao closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair: "I didn't teach you the real thing at all." ”
"Then I'll go." Liu Hong knew very well that what Zhang Xiao said was true, because within a few days of joining the medical hall, Liu Hong knew that the book on alchemy was sold in the bookstore! It's just basics! The real dry goods are all taught by the master! This is also the reason why when Liu Hong asked people where they could learn alchemy, those people said that the medical hall or the wealthy family.
But although Zhang Xiao didn't teach Liu Hong anything, he didn't avoid Liu Hong either!
"Let's go!" Zhang Xiao's eyes didn't open either.
made a deep bow, Liu Hong did not drag the mud and water, and walked away with his head held high.
A month later, the edge of Cesruxes.
"Do you know where the Rockbells' graves are?" Liu Hong lowered his hat so that the wind and sand in the desert would not blow into his eyes, and at the same time asked the Ishbal people who were ambushing in the yellow sand in front of him.
"Who!" The Ishbal man in front of him suddenly jumped up from the sand as if he had been stabbed, rolled forward a few times, and then pulled out the knife from his waist and aimed it in Liu Hong's direction.
"Tucker?" Liu Hong took off the hat on his head, and the Ishbal man in front of him was Tucker, who had clashed with Liu Hong before.
"You're you!" Tucker just remembered who the man in front of him was. After all, Liu Hong had beaten him!
"Do you know where the Rockbells' graves are? It's time for me to send them home. Liu Hong saw that Tucker had recognized who he was, so he continued to put his hat on. The wind and sand of the desert are not pleasant things, and it can be touched less or less.
"What is the relationship between Mr. and Mrs. Rockbell and you?" Tucker knew it was useless to be vigilant, but he still inevitably pressed his body into an easy defensive stance.
"I know their daughter and mother." Liu Hong didn't mind approaching Tucker, who was getting more and more nervous: "I'm going to take them back to their hometown." ”
"Proof?" Tucker looked at Liu Hong in front of him, and felt more stressed, more than a year ago, but he still asked his own question, because he was from Ishbal!
"Proof?" Liu Hong frowned, then opened his suitcase and took out a photo, which was a photo of him with the Edward brothers and Lockbell's grandchildren: "The Lockbells have a photo of their daughter, just compare it." ”
"No need, I'll take you there." Tucker first looked at the photo, then put away his defensive posture, turned around and walked forward, while waving his hand to Liu Hong to follow.
"Thank you." Liu Hong put the photo in his suitcase, and then hurried to Tucker: "But why do I run into you every time?" ”
"I'm a garrison!" Tucker said proudly.
Half an hour later, Liu Hong followed Tucker to a sand dune. The sand dunes here are lined with tombstones, and it is obvious that it is a cemetery.
"Here!" Within a few steps of the cemetery, Tucker pointed to a tombstone.
Liu Hong stepped forward to take a look, and sure enough, it read the tomb of the Rockbell couple, as well as the lives of the two of them. Including what was done in Ishbal, and how to die!
"It's really sincere!" Liu Hong sighed.
"Of course!" Tucker looked up beside him and said proudly, "We are Ishbals!" ”
Ignoring Tucker's boasting, Liu Hong brushed the sand away, exposed the ground, confirmed the range, drew a refining array, and then pressed his hands on the ground, attracting the power of the earth's crust.
In Tucker's somewhat complicated eyes, blue lightning flashed, and the grave of the Rockbells was refined into a rectangular stone coffin by Liu Hong! The tombstone is embedded in the center of the coffin, facing a little upward.
"Is that how you brought them back?" Tucker looked at the stone coffin in front of him and said in a somewhat unnatural tone.
"Or else?" Liu Hong stepped forward to test the weight, then lifted it up and put it on his shoulder, and walked towards Ameslis under Tucker's surprised gaze.
