Chapter XXXVII
"It's another marrow washing and hair cutting!" Yuan Hao felt the ease from his body, sniffed the stench on his body, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.
Washing the marrow and cutting the hair, Yuan Hao enjoyed it more than once. Even counting with the T virus, Yuan Hao is already the third time to wash the marrow and cut the hair. Although the experience of washing the marrow and removing the hair is quite painful every time, the lightness of his body after washing the marrow and removing the hair is enough to make him forget the pain at the beginning.
People don't remember to eat, and Yuan Hao himself is no exception.
After all, it was not the first time to wash the marrow and cut the hair, and Yuan Hao's reaction was not as violent as Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong, and Ba Fenghan. He took two or three deep breaths, regained a little strength in his body, and then stood up with strength.
He pushed open the door of the house, walked to the small courtyard, and looked out at the eastern sky.
When the day dawned, the whole city was bathed in the golden morning sun.
As the sun rises, the buildings and the sky near and far in the city seem to become another world, not only the level and richness of the colors are doubled, but the most touching thing is that at a glance, you can grasp the various postures of each leaf 30 zhang away in the soft breeze in the morning light.
"It's a clear world, and it feels like you've stepped from the HD generation to the IMAX3D widescreen. Yuan Hao was so moved that his body shook violently, and tears burst out of his eyes uncontrollably.
He closed his eyes, only to feel that the veins in his body and the heaven and earth outside were immediately blended together, and they were no longer separated from each other. He clearly felt that the aura between heaven and earth was pouring into his body at a slow but firm speed with his breathing.
In fact, these are not very pure powers, reincarnating in the meridians in one's body, through the travel of one acupoint after another, little by little they are purified and transformed into their own power.
After standing here for less than a quarter of an hour, he felt that the true qi in his body had increased by one thousandth compared to the original. This growth is not fast, but it is impressive over time.
"Whew!" Yuan Hao let out a long breath of turbidity.
At this time, the warm sunlight came from the east and fell on him, and there was never a moment when he felt his existence, the meaning of life, as he did now.
After another experience of washing the marrow and cutting the hair, his meridians were strengthened multiplied, although his power did not increase immediately, but as long as he practiced as always, he would be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
You must know that manpower is sometimes poor, and when it comes to a master of Yuan Hao's current level, it is difficult to climb to the sky if you want to make an inch. At this time, what they are pursuing is not simply to move their true qi to fill the dantian, but also to constantly ponder their meridians, and their bodies allow him to further expand upward.
This is a water mill kung fu, according to common sense, it takes years of operation to expand so much, but after the transformation of the strange energy just now, in less than an hour, he seems to have turned from a puddle of water into a bottomless deep pool, and every trick point, every meridian, has been reborn into a treasure with unlimited development potential.
This really made him very happy.
He was laughing when suddenly the voice of Kou Zhong in the room suddenly sounded in his ears: "My mother, why am I so fishy?" ”
Yuan Hao opened his eyes, the light in his eyes flashed, and he immediately returned to normal. He turned back and saw Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong, and Ba Fenghan sitting up, one staring blankly at the rising sun from the east, one vigorously sniffing the sweat in his palms, and the other solemnly and attentively closing his eyes and pranayama.
Seeing Yuan Hao coming, Kou Zhong came to him in a very funny way, crawling hand and foot together, and said, "Patriarch, have you done makeup? Why did you suddenly become so handsome? ”
Yuan Hao smiled faintly, raised his hand to wipe the dirt off his face with his sleeve, and shook his head gently: "Use He's Bi to make emollient tonics, this is probably the most expensive tonic in the world." If you say this, I'm afraid the whole world will go crazy. ”
The two of them looked at each other and laughed at the same time, but no one could figure out why they were laughing and what was so funny.
Xu Ziling is still looking at the rising sun.
The two of them came to him and wondered, "What are you looking at?"
Xu Ziling let out a breath and muttered, "Why do I stare at the sun and don't feel the sun dazzling?"
The two of them were busy looking at the sun, and the usual dazzling sunlight became warm and comfortable, which was very different from usual.
Kou Zhongmeng sighed: "My mother, the sun turned out to be a big fireball, why can't you usually see it." ”
"Because Heshi Bi not only strengthens your meridians, but also strengthens your body itself. Muscles, bones, internal organs, brain, eyes, nose and ears...... This is also because you are not practicing external skills. If you are refining the body, I am afraid that you will get more changes. Yuan Hao explained lightly.
"So that's the case?" Kou Zhong didn't understand it, but he felt that this statement was very reasonable.
However, Kou Zhong didn't study this matter after all, so he had only heard of this kind of reasoning. He immediately turned his head and asked Xu Ziling: "What about He's Bi?"
"Here!" Xu Ziling spread out his hands. I saw the huge He's Bi holding it in the palm of his hand.
Of course, its situation is a bit bad, and the whole jade looks gray, without a glamorous appearance. Kou Zhong's sharp eyes even saw that there were faint cracks on the jade.
"How can this be?" Kou Zhong felt that something was wrong, and Bai Fenghan frowned slightly.
"Maybe we're activating too many abilities and circulating too much with each other. Yuan Haoba clicked his eyes and tentatively said his guess.
"Well, that's possible. But in any case, He's Bi finally saved. Xu Ziling nodded lightly when he heard this, and then handed it to Yuan Hao: "This thing should be placed on your side first." ”
"Why?" Yuan Hao was a little strange.
"You have your own space to keep this out of other people's spying. He's Bi can unleash abilities anytime, anywhere. Although he is in a state of collapse now, who knows if he will recover well. If we were discovered by the people of Cihang Jingzhai and Chunnian Zen Monastery, we would become rats crossing the street. Xu Ziling saw it very clearly at this time.
"That's right!" his statement was approved by Kou Zhong: "I'm afraid that the loss of the Jingnian Zen Monastery and the matter of the clan will cause a storm in the city, so it is better for us to keep a low profile at this time." It's still early in the morning, and when we returned to the city last night, I'm afraid that it will be passed into Wang Shichong's ears by someone with a heart, and Wang Shichong will definitely send someone to find me...... At this time, we can't show a little bit of horse's feet. ”
"Okay, since you've said so......" Yuan Hao nodded very understandingly, and then stretched out his hand and put He Shibi into his personal space.
After placing He's Bi in this way, several people quickly disposed of the traces left by washing the marrow and cutting hair on their bodies, and then gathered in the hut again.
Taking a slight breath, Kou Zhong was about to say something, but saw Yuan Hao reach out into the void and take out a few red fruits from his personal space and put them in front of everyone.
"What is this?" asked Kou Zhong, puzzled. He had never seen such a red fruit as blood. It was only at the first glance that he couldn't help but feel the desire to devour his stomach. Such a desire is abnormal. Kou Zhong forcibly pressed it down, staring at this strangely.
"Blood Bodhi grows in a hot place, and it needs to be watered with the blood of the unicorn. It's a good thing I got in the previous world. A Blood Bodhi can increase your strength for ten years......" Yuan Hao said lightly.
"What? and such a good thing?" Kou Zhong's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he picked up a blood bodhi and was about to pour it into his mouth.
"Wait......" Ba Fenghan grabbed him, "This thing won't have any side effects, right?"
"Don't worry!" Yuan Hao smiled and waved his hand: "I won't give you anything with side effects." However, I don't recommend you to eat this right away......"
"Why?" Yuan Hao's words made Kou Zhong feel very strange.
"Because this is for you to convince others. Yuan Hao explained lightly.
"Convince others, what do you mean?" Xu Ziling realized slightly.
Kou Zhong thought for a moment and quickly understood: "You mean...... Is it used to deal with the interrogation of Wang Shichong and those people in the Jingnian Monastery?"
"Nature...... After a night of washing and removing hair, you and I have changed a lot. How to explain this change is something we need to prepare. I think it would be easier for you to explain it if you were holding these exotic fruits...... Changes in oneself. Yuan Hao nodded and said lightly.
"Is that so?" Kou Zhong tilted his head and thought for a while, and finally turned around and confirmed: "Hmm, that's true!"
"So......" Kou Zhong put the Blood Bodhi away and put it in his pocket, he opened his mouth to say something.
But just as he was about to speak, a humble and cautious voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Is Uncle Kou inside?" ”
"Oh, I see!" Kou Zhong replied casually. He looked at everyone and whispered: "It seems that the patriarch is right, those people really came to the door." ”
"Wang Shichong is the lord of Luoyang, there are many eyes and ears in Luoyang, and he doesn't know everything about your every move, but he also knows seventy percent of it...... I'm not surprised that he's looking for you now. We have prepared for what happened last night, and you know what to say. ”
Yuan Hao whispered to him:
"Wang Shichong, I don't know why you want to help him, but he is doing big things and sparing his life, forgetting his righteousness when he sees small profits, and he is not rewarded, so he is really not a good object of assistance. If you want to dominate the world, it's better to leave Wang Shichong as soon as possible. ”
"I will!" Kou Zhong nodded lightly when he heard this, and then stepped out of the door, joined Wang Shichong's subordinates who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, and left this secret place on horseback.
At this moment, he can be regarded as completely understanding that what he seems to be a secret stronghold is really a very clear thing in the eyes of a Luoyang land snake like Wang Shichong.
"So they already knew!" Kou Zhong muttered, but he also looked a little helpless.
Kou Zhong left, and Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan were also ready to get up. Today the sun is so bright, but it is not a suitable day for stays.
After Kou Zhong left, Xu Ziling and Ba Fenghan also had their own things to do. He fixed his eyes on Yuan Hao and asked in a low voice, "Brother Yuan, there is something I want to ask you." ”
"What's the matter?" Yuan Hao asked incomprehensibly.
"I would like to ask you to help me find out the stronghold of the Yin Kui Sect in Luoyang - Aunt Yu fell into their hands. I'm worried about what kind of conspiracy the Yin Kwai faction will play, so ...... In short, we have to save Aunt Yu. Xu Ziling said categorically.
"I understand!" Yuan Hao nodded understandingly, "You targeted Shangguan Long last night to get the news of the Yin Kwai faction's stronghold from Shangguan Long?"
"That's true!" Xu Ziling nodded bluntly.
"You guys!" Yuan Hao sighed, "Okay! I'll help you with this." ”
"Thank you very much. Xu Ziling and Bafeng Han gave up their hands to Yuan Hao, and then went their separate ways.
Soon, Yuan Hao was the only one left in the huge courtyard.
"Well, it's time for me to get out and walk around. I'm looking for someone from the Yin Kui Sect, but I'm afraid that the people from the Yin Kui Sect are also looking for me right now. Suddenly appeared next to Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong, and they had extremely strong strength - Zhu Yuyan was afraid that she was very interested in me. In order to see how much I have, she will definitely come to test me. I just don't know who he's going to send. Yuan Hao thought about it, and got up and left the courtyard.
He walked towards the most prosperous place in Luoyang, exposing his figure to everyone's sight, in order to inform everyone that I, Yuan Hao, had arrived.
Luoyang is located on the south bank of the Yellow River, the north Ping Mountain, the south is Luoshui, the east Huhu Prison, the west Yinghan Valley, surrounded by mountains, the middle is the Luoyang Plain, Yi, Luo, the four rivers flow through it, it is not only the situation is dangerous, but also the scenery is beautiful, the soil is fertile, the climate is moderate, and the transportation is convenient.
Since ancient times, there have been eight dynasties such as Xia, Shang, Eastern Zhou, Eastern Han, Cao Wei, Western Jin, Northern Wei and Sui. The so-called Heyang Dingdingdi, located in the Central Plains and corresponding to the Quartet, Luoyang is the world's traffic stronghold, military fortress.
After Yang Guang ascended the throne, he chose another capital site in Luoyang and established a new capital.
The new imperial city is located between the Zhou Wangcheng and the ancient city of the Han and Wei dynasties, the east is over the water, the south crosses the Luo River, the west is adjacent to the Jianhe River, the north is close to the mountain, the city circumference is more than 50 miles, magnificent and magnificent.
Yang Guang took Luoyang as the center, dug out a grand canal that reaches Hangzhou in the south, reaches Zhuojun in the north, and runs through the north and south, connecting the five major water systems of the Haihe River, the Yellow River, the Huai River, the Yangtze River and the Qiantang River, and Luoyang has become the central hub of transportation and commerce in the world.
The scale of Luoyang is not better than the general small city, only the south city gate will open three gates, the city gate in the middle is named Jianguo Gate, the left is the White Tiger Gate, the right is the Changxia Gate, the model system is magnificent.
The "Heavenly Street", a street with a width of 100 steps and runs through the north and south gates, stretches straight in front of you, and you are afraid that it is not seven or eight miles long.
The street is full of cherry, pomegranate, elm, willow and other kinds of trees, in the middle for the emperor to go out on the royal road, at the turn of spring and summer, peach and willow green, the scenery is picturesque, beautiful.
There are many shops on both sides of the avenue, and between the lanes, each has its own road, and the vertical and horizontal ten streets that run through the major city gates are staggered, and it is orderly.
Unlike the ancient city of the Han and Wei dynasties, which was confined to the north of Luoshui in the past, the eastern capital of the Great Sui can span the north and south of Luoshui.
The eastern capital is divided into two parts, north and south, which are connected longitudinally by four bridges. At the same time, the Luoshui that traverses the east and west of Luoyang is connected with Yishui and Jianshui, which makes the river in the city linger. The complete beauty of the landscape has been moved to the city, giving people a sense of harmony made in heaven.
This is completely in the land of Jiangbei and Henan, and recreates a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. It's just that the widened Luoshui River channel built in strict accordance with the majesty of the Son of Heaven is wide and deep, which makes it have a strict and harmonious atmosphere.
Walking on the Heavenly Street, Yuan Hao soon saw a unique spectacle: he saw a sailboat sailing by Luoshui hidden under the house, and from their point of view, only the top of the sail moved, like a land boat.
At this time, the sky is white, and there are more and more people and cars on the street.
From time to time, there are a group of guards with bright armor walking and running on the royal road, taking advantage of the width of the royal road to do morning drills, and their serious and tense momentum makes this beautiful imperial city add a deep and strict momentum.
However, such a momentum cannot hide the prosperity and moving of Luoyang.
The shops in the Heavenly Street have been deliberately decorated, the eaves are the same, and the curtains are set up, full of treasures, utensils, and all kinds of goods.
The guys are dressed in brocade and hanging colors, as a solicitation, and the clothes are gorgeous.
The most touching thing is that there are many young girls in these sellers, and they are even more fancy and dizzying.
Even the vendors who sell land stalls also sit on dragon whisker mats, which is both uniform and magnificent.
"It's worthy of Luoyang City. Yuan Hao sighed in his heart, he walked calmly, walking along the road, but his spiritual qi had already spread, and he really felt that there were several masters who looked good at martial arts not far behind him staring at him tightly.
"Who could it be?" Yuan Hao was puzzled. But he felt that the most likely of them was the people of the Yin Kui faction.
