Chapter 50, Regain Confidence
At the end of the song, the room was quiet, neither Zhuge Qingming nor Dongfang Saiyu spoke, because they knew that it was not appropriate to say anything at this time, so they only quietly accompanied Ji Fengtian and waited for him to speak.
Now Ji Fengtian is very confused in his heart, because he can't use the power of the elements to disrupt his plan, he was originally prepared that he has a strong force to protect his parents, he can quell the invasion of the orcs, he can suppress the rebellion in the southwest, and then he will leave here, go outside to travel, and see this strange continent, but he didn't expect that his goal would be strangled before he was achieved.
"I'm not reconciled!" Ji Fengtian's hoarse voice came out of his throat.
When Zhuge Qingming and the three of them heard Ji Fengtian's voice, Dongfang Yue stood up and wanted to comfort Ji Fengtian, but the steps he took took were retracted, and his face was full of worry. Zhuge Qingming and Dongfang Saiyu were also full of bitterness in their hearts, thinking that if this matter was changed to themselves, it was estimated that they would not be able to bear this blow.
Slowly stood up, walked to the table, placed the guqin in front of him, and the ten fingers moved on the guqin, there was no fixed melody, but Zhuge Qingming and the three of them felt that Ji Fengtian was very unwilling in his heart. As the music sounded, everyone was gradually brought into the artistic conception of the sound of the piano.
The melody is long and long, such as crying, like complaining, like unwillingness, and sadness, inspiring the softest place in people's hearts, the three of them unconsciously left tears, just when everyone was immersed in endless sadness, the sound of the piano changed sharply, and an unyielding will came out of the strings, straight into the sky, as if trying to pierce the day.
The momentum on Ji Fengtian's body changed with the guqin, and an unyielding will burst out from Ji Fengtian's body, waking everyone up.
Standing up slowly, Ji Fengtian looked at everyone, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you. Ji Fengtian said.
"Little Tianzi, I knew you would wake up. Zhuge Qingming patted Ji Fengtian on the shoulder and said.
"Brother Fengtian, I know you can do it. Dongfang Yue saw Ji Fengtian regain his former vigor, and the big stone hanging in his heart was finally put down.
"Do you need my help to do anything?" Dongfang Saitama asked a more practical question directly.
"This really needs the help of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Ji Fengtian said.
"You said, as long as I can do it, I will definitely help. Dongfang Saitama said happily.
"Do you still remember the book of the Body Refining Technique 'Vajra Jue' that the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce auctioned today?" Ji Fengtian said.
"Remember, do you want to refine your body?" said Dongfang Saitama.
"Not bad. ”
"But that exercise is incomplete, why don't I go to the royal treasury to see if there are any suitable exercises for body refining and find one. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Don't bother, just the broken one. Ji Fengtian said, it's not that he doesn't want it, but he feels that in the dark, it seems that he is destined to cultivate the incomplete "King Kong Technique", if he gives up cultivation, there will be a feeling that he will never achieve anything, and this feeling is getting stronger after he can't use the power of the elements.
"Okay, I'll find a way to get it for you. Dongfang Saitama said.
"It's getting late, why don't you stay here and rest?" Ji Fengtian asked.
"I haven't eaten, do you have a treat?" Zhuge Qingming looked at Ji Fengtian.
"Okay, you can say what to eat. ”
"Let someone buy a demon beast and roast it and eat it. Zhuge Qingming said.
"Uh... Okay, I'll tell someone to get it. Ji Fengtian patted his forehead and said.
"No, you have to bake it yourself. ”
"Okay. What about you?" Ji Fengtian looked at Dongfang Saitama and the others again.
"We are the same as the Qingming brothers. Dongfang Saitama said, and Dongfang Yue's ears were red and she didn't speak.
Soon after the matter was instructed, several servants came over with a cleaned-up demon beast corpse.
Ji Fengtian took out the short sword and slid it quickly on the body of the demon beast, and the three of them were dazzled, not knowing what Ji Fengtian was doing.
There were not only four people present, but also the head chef of the Ji family's kitchen, who was shocked when he saw Ji Fengtian's skillful bone-dissolving technique, thinking that he had been a chef for so many years, and the bone-dissolving technique was actually not as good as a six- or seven-year-old child, and a sense of frustration arose spontaneously in his heart, but thinking that this was the little general of his own general's mansion, he was relieved.
"Hey, little Tianzi, why haven't I seen you do this before?" Zhuge Qingming asked puzzled.
"The wild boar doesn't have those tendons and bones in it, but the monster is different, the tendons in it are not something we can bite at all, and if you have bones, the monster meat is not fragrant, and after removing these things, it will be easier to roast delicious meat. Ji Fengtian said.
Then, Ji Fengtian wiped the short sword in his hand clean and hung it on his waist. Rolled up his sleeves, stretched out into the flesh, pulled out a white thread-like thing, and pulled it hard, and a beast tendon about seven or eight meters long was pulled out.
"Do you know why the intelligence of the demon beast is low?" Ji Fengtian asked.
Hearing Ji Fengtian's question, everyone couldn't help but look at Ji Fengtian curiously, waiting for an answer.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Ji Fengtian said: "Stupid! Of course, it's because the demon beast has a tendon." ”
Hearing Ji Fengtian's words, everyone rolled their eyes, and they all felt that this joke was a little cold.
"By the way, you go and call Sister Mo Ran and them, and by the way, return the emperor star, you go and call my parents and Grandpa Zhang. Ji Fengtian ordered a few subordinates to call people, because this demon beast was enough to eat up and down the Ji Mansion once.
After several servants left, Ji Fengtian reached out and groped on the demon beast, and after a while, many white bones were taken out by Ji Fengtian and thrown on the ground.
In the small garden in front of Ji Fengtian's room, Ji Fengtian and the others set up a fire, hung the demon beast on it, and barbecued it. By the time everyone arrived, a little bit of oil had oozed from the demon beast's body, dripping down its body towards the fire, and there was a sound of Zla.
Quickly took out the bottles and cans, took out the brush and brushed it on the monster, and evenly spread the seasoning. After half an hour, the flesh on the outer skin of the demon beast turned brown.
"Alright, it's ready to eat. Ji Fengtian said, and then took out the saucer, cut a few pieces and sent them to Ji Lingyun and others.
Ji Lingyun saw that the son in front of him had regained his former self-confidence, and he also had mixed feelings in his heart, so he picked up the meat in the flute and ate it.
"It's so delicious!" Just when Ji Fengtian had just distributed the meat to everyone, a sound came from where the barbecue was, and Ji Fengtian turned to look, and his forehead was suddenly covered with black lines.
I saw Zhuge Qingming squatting next to the barbecue, sliding the knife on the body of the demon beast while quickly throwing it into his mouth, the speed was jaw-dropping. As if sensing everyone's gaze, Zhuge Qingming also turned his head, looked at everyone, rolled his eyes and said, "What do you see me doing?
Everyone couldn't help laughing, but Zhuge Qingming didn't stop his movements because of everyone's gaze.
"Roar!" A beast roar came, and then a white figure appeared in front of everyone's eyes like lightning, it was Ji Lingyun's mount, the white wolf. The white wolf stared at the barbecue on the shelf with bright eyes, and the hara in his mouth was reserved.
"Uh..." Ji Fengtian was speechless, why did this guy come. But he didn't think much about it, cut off half of the demon beast meat and put it in front of the white wolf, the white wolf swallowed his saliva, slowly lay down, and ate it slowly.
Could it be that this guy is inspired to be a white wolf with quality and cultivation? Ji Fengtian couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"Uncle, how can you just eat meat without wine?" Zhuge Qingming came to Ji Lingyun's side with meat in his mouth and said dissatisfiedly.
"Hahahaha, okay, my uncle asked me to go to the cellar to bring a few jars of wine, but let your father know, don't say that I gave it to you. Ji Lingyun said haha.
"Look at you not being serious. Xu Jing rolled her eyes and said.
"Son's barbecue is good, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, salty and light, and fragrant, after eating into the stomach, I feel as if the internal organs have been thrown into a piece of coal, comfortable. Ji Lingyun praised.
"That is, and I don't see who gave birth to it. Xu Jing said.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's all Mrs. To's blessing. ”
"You see that Princess Yue is interesting to our family. Xu Jing stabbed Ji Lingyun and said.
Ji Lingyun followed Xu Jing's gaze, at this time, Dongfang Yue, Dongfang Qiyu, Zhuge Qingming and Ji Fengtian were sitting together, Dongfang Qiyu, Zhuge Qingming and Ji Fengtian were talking and laughing, Dongfang Yue's eyes were always looking at Ji Fengtian, her cheeks were slightly red.
"Hey, hey, hey, it's still our son who is so good, and he can finish the princess so quickly. Ji Lingyun laughed.
"What do you mean it's done, it's called love, you can't speak. Xu Jing said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, yes, Madame is right. ”
The remaining half of the demon beast meat was quickly eaten by everyone, and everyone returned to the room satisfied.
Lying on the bed, Ji Fengtian did not practice or meditate on the Tao Te Ching anymore, and slept beautifully.
Early the next morning, Ji Fengtian came to Zhang Fang's courtyard, at this time Zhang Fang had just gotten up, seeing Ji Fengtian's arrival, he was not surprised, he reached out and grabbed Ji Fengtian's wrist, and injected the elemental energy into Ji Fengtian's body, and carefully sensed it for a while, but did not find anything abnormal, and his brows were also tightly locked.
"Really?" Zhang Fang asked.
"Really, all the elemental energy is now concentrated in the dantian, but I can't use a single bit. Ji Fengtian said helplessly.
"Converge in the dantian, have you broken through the innate nature?" said Zhang Dacheng in surprise.
"Grandpa Zhang, you don't have to show this kind of expression, do you?" Ji Fengtian said speechlessly.
"Uh... Habitual movements, change slowly. Zhang Fang said with a smile.
"Okay, let's talk about what's going on. Zhang Fang asked curiously.
"That's right, at that time, I asked my father how to break through the innate nature, and after my father explained it to me, I tried to break through, and it didn't take a while to open up the Broken Heaven Acupoint, and then the elemental energy gathered into the dantian, and then I couldn't mobilize it. Ji Fengtian said.
"Can you continue to absorb the elemental energy in the air?" asked Zhang Fang.
"Yes. ”
"Could it be that you have some kind of strange physique?" his gaze swept back and forth over Ji Fengtian's body. It is useless to find anything special, and there is no mention of this physique in the estimated records, so there should be a way to find out only when you go to a place other than the Dayue Dynasty.
"Grandpa Zhang, what is physique?" Ji Fengtian asked.
"The physique is what everyone is born with, some absorb elemental energy blocks, some have a high affinity with the elements, and so on. Zhang Fang said.
"Is there any record of my situation?" Ji Fengtian asked.
"I don't know, but there should be somewhere outside the dynasty. Zhang Fang said thoughtfully.
"What's outside the dynasty?"
"There are many sects outside the dynasty, there is no dynasty, everyone takes cultivation as the status, countless immortals, birds and monsters, and masters are like clouds. Zhang Fang said.
"Grandpa Zhang, have you been outside?" asked Ji Fengtian.
"No, we are separated from that continent by a river, and I was almost killed by a demon beast when I crossed the river, and it was thanks to your grandfather that I wouldn't have been able to come back. Zhang Fang recalled.
"Hey~ Grandpa Zhang, you are an innate martial artist, and there are demon beasts that can threaten you. Ji Fengtian asked.
"Of course there is, when that demon beast glanced at me, I felt cold all over, like falling into an ice cellar, and the elemental power in my whole body could not function. Zhang said with palpitations.
In Ji Fengtian's cognition, the innate martial artist is very powerful, even if he has just become an innate martial artist, but a demon beast that can make the innate unable to move with a single look, Ji Fengtian has heard it for the first time.
"Okay, don't talk about me, what do you want to do next?" Zhang Fang asked.
"I want to practice alchemy, after all, the power of the elements cannot be mobilized, and I also need the power to protect myself now, so I can only choose to practice alchemy. Ji Fengtian said seriously.
"Can you bear that kind of pain?" Zhang Fang said playfully looking at Ji Fengtian.
"Yes, don't forget that I still have to provide for Grandpa Zhang, hehe. Ji Fengtian said.
"Good boy, I have a few alchemy techniques here, do you want to take a look?" Zhang Fang asked.
"No need, I'll ask Dongfang Saitama to find me that copy of "King Kong Jue", if it doesn't work, I'll ask you for it again. Ji Fengtian said.
"Okay, anyway, you have your own thoughts, Grandpa Zhang is very relieved of you. Let's go inside, I put things in last night and it should be okay now. Zhang Fang stroked his beard and said.
Ji Fengtian pushed the door into the room, saw the emerald green liquid in the wooden barrel, and the emerald green mist was steaming on it, he tested the water with his hands, the cold and heat were just right, he took off the clothes on his body and jumped into the wooden barrel.
After Ji Fengtian entered the wooden barrel, he sat down cross-legged, palms up, and quietly ran the basic exercises, absorbing the medicine in the water into his body.
This time, probably because there was no elemental power, Ji Fengtian felt that after the medicine entered his body, his muscles and blood vessels were numb, and he even felt pain in some places, and his forehead was covered with sweat, I don't know if it was hot or painful. Clenching his teeth, Ji Fengtian insisted on running the basic method, driving the medicine to circulate in the body. An hour passed, and the emerald green in the barrel disappeared, Ji Fengtian slowly stood up, wiped the water droplets on his body, put on his clothes and walked out.
"Grandpa Zhang, why do you feel so much pain this time?" Ji Fengtian asked curiously.
"Do you feel that the bones are crispy and numb, and there is still some pain?" Zhang Fang asked.
"Yes. Ji Fengtian replied.
"That's right, this time I guessed that you might take the path of refining your body, so I put a tenth of the quenching flower in it in advance for you to feel it. Zhang Fang said with a smile.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt. Ji Fengtian said.
"If it's just a bone quenching flower and you feel pain, then it's okay if you don't practice this alchemy. Zhang Fang said.
"I see, but I don't feel it anymore. Ji Fengtian said.
"Yes, it's estimated that it has been absorbed now. Zhang Fang said.
"I'll go back first and see if I can find the King Kong Jue as soon as possible. Ji Fengtian said.
"I found it and showed it to me, I will prepare medicinal materials for you, and you will feel good when the time comes, hehehehe." Zhang Fang said with a strange smile.
When Ji Fengtian returned to his room, he happened to meet Dongfang Saiyu who came out of the room rubbing his head.
"Brother Fengtian got up so early. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Uh... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, now he is already on the rise. Ji Fengtian said speechlessly, but after thinking about it, Dongfang Saiyu was poured down by Zhuge Qingming last night, so he was relieved.
"By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince, have you gotten up yet? Ji Fengtian asked.
"I don't know, I just woke up. Dongfang Saitama said. Then he remembered that he was drunk by Zhuge Qingming last night, and felt that he couldn't hold it on his face, and said, "Why don't we go to his room and have a look." ”
The two of them pushed open the door, and a strong smell of wine rushed towards them. The two covered their noses and looked inside, and Dongfang Saitama asked, "How much did he drink?"
Ji Fengtian thought for a while and replied: "There are a total of six jars of wine, you and my father drank one jar, and the others drank a total of one jar, well, he drank four jars." Ji Fengtian said.
"I'm dizzy, he can't be a burp, right?" said Dongfang Saitama uncertainly.
Just after Dongfang Saitama's words fell, a voice came from the bed: "You just burped." ”
Zhuge Qingming slowly got up, rubbed his forehead, got up and walked towards the two.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, Princess Yue?" Ji Fengtian asked again.
"Huh, she got up, and you saw the doors were all open. Dongfang Saitama pointed to the door where Dongfang Yue was.
"Okay, just the two of you are lazy!" Ji Fengtian said as he looked at the unconscious duo.
"Young Master, Madame asked me to ask you to go to dinner. A maid came and said.
"Well, I see, let's go over here. Ji Fengtian said a word and turned his head to look at the two: "Hurry up and wash up, my mother told us to go to dinner, and we won't have anything to eat if we go late." ”
Dongfang Saitama and the two hurriedly finished washing, and the three of them walked towards the front together. Sitting down casually, Ji Fengtian found that Dongfang Yue was sitting next to her mother Xu Jing, talking about something, and it seemed that the relationship was very good, which made Ji Fengtian confused for a while.
"Hurry up and eat, and in a while the porridge will be cold. Xu Jing said.
Ji Fengtian didn't think much about it, picked up the white rice porridge on the table and took a sip. Ji Fengtian felt that today's porridge didn't seem to be made by the chef, nor was it made by his mother, so he took another sip, but he still didn't taste whose craftsmanship it was, but after the white rice porridge entered his stomach, Ji Fengtian suddenly felt warm, and the aroma was particularly strong.
"How is it, is the white rice porridge delicious today?" asked Xu Jing.
"It's delicious, it's delicious!" Zhuge Qingming and Dongfang Saiyu said vaguely, and then the two suddenly felt a murderous gaze, looked up, and found that it was Dongfang Yue, and the two immediately buried their heads and said nothing.
Ji Fengtian said: "It's smooth and not greasy, the concentration is just right, and after drinking it, I feel that my whole body is full of strength." ”
"Well, I think so too. Xu Jing said.
"Did we change chefs? This flavor is not made by the chef, nor is it made by you, mother, I drank it for the first time. Ji Fengtian asked curiously.
