Chapter 39: Medicated Baths

Strictly dividing the fifth order of qi cultivation is an important watershed, ordinary clansmen below the fifth order can be promoted to the first order in two years, but it is several times more difficult to break through the barrier of the fifth order of qi training and enter the sixth order than ordinary breakthroughs.

As for the cultivation of qi above the sixth order, it all depends on personal qualifications, some people break through the first order in a few years, while others break through the first order in more than ten years, and some people stop at it and do not increase their cultivation for the rest of their lives.

According to years of experience, only those who break through to the sixth level of qi cultivation before the age of two or six will be able to impact the gray level in the future, and once they become a gray level powerhouse, no one will dare to underestimate them within a radius of a hundred miles.

Liang Yue's elder brother Liang Ming was pinned on by everyone, he was recognized as the number one cultivation genius in the clan, and he was already a powerhouse of the seventh order of qi cultivation at the age of twenty-one after seven years of cultivation, and his strength even surpassed that of many people of the older generation.

Liang Ming's previous cultivation speed was to break through the first order every year, and although this speed could not appear again in the later stages of the qi cultivation stage, Liang Ming was still believed to have a good chance of breaking through to the gray level before the age of forty.

A forty-year-old gray-level powerhouse. It's too young, it's incredible to think about it, and the elders of the clan have always broken through the gray level after the age of fifty. A genius like Liang Ming often can't produce one in the clan for decades.

It is said that the patriarch's grandfather's qualifications were as good as Liang Ming's, and now he is in his sixties and is the number one master in the clan, sheltering the entire clan.

Ying Xiang is immersed in a sea of books, and he is very eager to acquire a lot of knowledge. The Great Elder's books here contain a wide range, not only related to cultivation and treasure arts, but also many strange texts and miscellaneous records, heroic legends, and Ying Xiang always reads them with relish.

Just as he was reading the highlights, Ying Xiang suddenly felt a pain in his ears, and he was too focused on the book just now, but he didn't expect to be suddenly attacked.

This familiar pain, Ying Xiang already knows who is coming. Who can go in and out of the Great Elder's place freely? Who dares to pluck their ears casually? The key is that who is so bored to pluck their own ears?

"Oops!" Liang Yue, who was beside him, shouted like a pig.

Liang Xiaomei pinched the two of them with one hand and one ear, and at this moment her face was full of anger, and her little face was pink with anger.

Liang Xiaomei's petite nose wrinkled, and her willow eyebrows were upside down: "Bastard, I'm looking for you everywhere, I don't know about today's medicinal bath?

"Oops, it hurts...... It's painful, Xiaomei let go!" Liang Yue shouted.

Liang Xiaomei let go of her hand, stomped her little feet in anger, and stared at the two of them with her big eyes, but she was very cute in the eyes of others.

Ying Xiang rubbed his ears and coughed twice, and said, "Okay, it's not early, let's go quickly." As he spoke, he walked on Liang Yue's shoulder, avoiding Liang Xiaomei's angry gaze, for fear of making Liang Xiaomei mad again.

The two walked quickly towards the second elder, and Liang Yue patted her chest with palpitations as she walked, and said, "The Eagle Emperor is above, a pillar of incense is silent for Liang Xiaomei's future husband, it is really too strong in psychological quality." However, being as fierce as her may not be able to get married. Oh, unless you are married to a foreigner, everyone in your own tribe knows the roots, and no one may have the courage to do this, haha. ”

Ying Xiang glared at Liang Yue and said, "Don't speak ill of people behind your back!"

Liang Yue was originally very happy to be trained by Ying Xiang, and suddenly wilted.

"But you can still mourn for that brother in the future!" Eagle Xiang continued, and his face was very sad.

"Ha, Yingxiang, you are too unkind. Liang Yue smiled again.

............

At the Second Elder's Office, thirteen young men stood straight in coarse linen clothes, and they had been waiting here with serious expressions early in the morning.

"Second Elder, we're here. Ying Xiang and Liang Yue clasped their fists and saluted.

"Everyone has arrived, start preparing the medicinal bath!" the second elder commanded with a wave of his hand, he was more patient than usual today, and didn't say anything about the tardiness of the two.

Ying Xiang looked at the thirteen teenagers in the field, most of whom were twelve or thirteen years old. Nine of them are very familiar with Yingxiang, which is Yingxiang's usual morning exercise partner.

There were three people he didn't recognize, and one person Eagle Xiang recognized but wasn't familiar with. It was the grandson of the Third Elder, thirteen years old this year, who often came to Tianyao Peak when he was a child, and then he had been learning to make weapons with the Third Elder.

Ying Xiang guessed that those few who didn't know should be good seedlings for cultivation that the second elder had selected from the third elder, and most of the young people in the clan had heard each other's names, but it was normal for some to not know each other if they hadn't met.

The huge barrels, more than half a man high, were laboriously lifted up by the four apprentices, and fifteen large barrels were arranged in a row to occupy most of the room. The barrel was constantly steaming with white heat, and it seemed that the temperature was not low.

Out of nowhere, the second elder found a black clay pot the size of a human head, and he took a small wooden spoon and scooped it into a bath tub. A wooden barrel holds a spoonful of the potion, and then there are apprentices who constantly stir the water in the bucket, only the last two wooden barrels are different.

Two scoops were placed in the penultimate barrel, while three scoops were placed in the last cask.

Ying Xiang knew that the last wooden barrel should be prepared for himself, he had already practiced the fourth order of qi, and his endurance was naturally stronger than ordinary people.

Don't look at the appearance of this black clay pot is very inconspicuous, Ying Xiang knows very well that this is a concentrated liquid made from a medicinal solution that cannot be filled in at least a few bath buckets.

The medicine boy led Ying Xiang to the last barrel, and Liang Yue was led to the penultimate barrel. Eagle took off all his clothes and jumped into the bucket with a thud.

The hot water temperature makes people feel comfortable all over the body, but before they have time to experience this comfort, everything has changed, and Ying Xiang can't help frowning slightly.

Pain, dense pain swept through the body.

Ying Xiang only felt as if he was being stabbed by thousands of red-hot steel needles, this feeling Ying Xiang was not unfamiliar with, after all, he had taken a medicinal bath many times.

It's just that since he stepped into the path of cultivation and cultivated his true qi, he rarely experienced the pain of this kind of needle prick from the medicinal bath again, and it seems that the medicinal properties of the medicinal liquid this time are really domineering.

Slowly closing his eyes, Ying Xiang quickly adjusted to the pain. His brow began to stretch as he began to enjoy the sensation. The water was hot, and his whole body was red, and the dense pain around his body became faint and numb.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

"Help, I'm going to die!"

The other teenagers in the tub bared their teeth in pain, yelled and screamed, and struggled desperately in the water, and suddenly the water splashed.

A teenager couldn't stand the pain and grabbed the edge of the barrel and was about to get up, but the medicine boy next to him immediately grabbed it and pressed the young man's shoulder and pressed him down.

The boy in the bucket was naturally much stronger than the medicine boy, but when the medicine boy held them down, he hid a silver needle in his hand, and the young man who was struggling suddenly became weak when he was pierced into what acupoint.

The medicine boys were obviously experienced with this and were not alarmed, and took the silver needle back and stood to the side expressionlessly. There is a medicine boy guarding next to each barrel, as long as you don't get out of the barrel, you can make a fuss about the boy in the barrel.

After being pricked by a silver needle once, he was weak for at least two hours, and no matter how much the boy in the bucket struggled, it was useless. Some teenagers scolded, some screamed in pain, and some teenagers pleaded with the medicine boy who was guarding them.

Liang Yue had sweat on his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and endured it without struggling or screaming. He calmed down and endured the pain silently, after all, he was a first-order Qi cultivator, and the pain gradually lessened as the True Qi continued to run in the meridians.

Ying Xiang noticed that in addition to Liang Yue, there was also a young man who was very calm, and that young man was the grandson of the third elder. This young Ying Xiang was not familiar with him, and vaguely remembered that his name was Liang Kun.

Liang Kun obviously has not yet embarked on the path of cultivation, and his physical strength is relatively poor because he has not received morning exercises since he was a child. Although the concentration of the liquid medicine he soaked was relatively low, it still made him very difficult.

Liang Kun's appearance was ordinary, but at this moment, his eyes were very bright, his face was red, his lips had bitten out blood, but he never screamed, not even moaning, moaning.

Liang Dali was in a bathtub next to him, and his miserable howl was really unbearable to look at.

"Vigorously, it's a shame. Ying Xiang and Liang Yue couldn't help but sigh at the same time in their hearts.

Your fat body is twice the size of Liang Kun, and besides, you are also a "warrior" who can lift a two-thousand-pound boulder

It's really ...... to be so cowardly now.

After all, they are partners who have been practicing together in the morning since childhood, and Ying Xiang and Liang Yue were really a little unbearable to hear Liang vigorously "screaming". As for the others, it doesn't seem to be as loud as you screamed.

"Huh?" Liang Dali, who was shouting, suddenly stopped, scratching his head in confusion.

"It doesn't seem to hurt anymore, it's still numb and crispy. Liang said vigorously.

Suddenly, Liang Dali received several cold sharp gazes, all of which were from his partners who usually practiced together in the morning. Everyone hurts so much that you are still comfortable, looking for a pump.

Liang Kun closed his eyes and was still struggling, and after half a pillar of incense, his frowning brows and distorted face relaxed. Many of the other teenagers in the tub no longer felt pain, and one by one they finally smiled.

"Purr...... Grunt...... , I want a leg of mutton!"

Everyone looked for the source of the sound, but saw Liang Dali leaning against the barrel wall and falling asleep. The eagle people's eyes were very sharp, and they naturally saw the long, shiny saliva flowing from the corners of their mouths at this moment.

Many teenagers quickly lowered their heads and raised their heads again, with serious and serious expressions written on their faces, "Who is he, I don't know him".

The second elder looked at everyone and nodded to the medicine boy on the side, and the black clay pot was brought out again. The second elder picked up the wooden spoon and added the medicinal liquid to the wooden barrel, and suddenly the young man's face became ugly.

Sure enough, my whole body hurt again. This time, the teenagers had experience and knew that it wouldn't hurt if they endured it for a while, so they only snorted occasionally and didn't yell anymore.

"Oops, it hurts. Liang Dali woke up from his sleep, and his hands swayed and almost knocked over the clay pot in the medicine boy's hand. Thanks to the two medicine boys next to him, they reacted quickly and hurriedly held him down.

Liang Yue added two spoonfuls to the bucket, and Ying Xiang said to the second elder to add four spoonfuls to me.

"Are you sure?" the Second Elder smiled.
