Chapter 6: Strength

At night, the lights in the west room are on, and the strong smell of herbs wafts through the quiet courtyard as always.

Soon, an old banter came out of the west room to break the silence of the small courtyard.

"I just said that you didn't eat at noon, what did you do in a hurry? It turned out that you couldn't find it, haha~"

In the room filled with the smell of hot air and herbs, Jing Daochuan looked at the old and young ones soaked in the medicine barrel and laughed.

"Didn't I want to practice more? Qi Ming muttered.

Now his body was still immobile, and his head was full of silver needles like the old man Ling opposite, soaked in the medicine barrel.

Fortunately, Old Man Ling's body is thin, and he can still be allowed to come in.

Old man Ling was also amused by Qi Ming's actions today, and then Jing Daochuan's words smiled:

"Xiao Qi wants to become an immortal in one step, haha~"

However, all cultivators with common sense know that cultivation is gradual, and if you start practicing and exercising with such intensity and hard work as Qi Ming, the final result will only be counterproductive, resulting in muscle and ligament spasm, which is more serious than muscle dissipation, which is life-threatening.

Fortunately, there is a miracle doctor at home, and there will be no problems, that is, Qi Ming's muscle soreness caused by an afternoon of exercise can be well regulated by Jing Daochuan.

In the steaming medicinal bath, Qi Ming felt that his body was rapidly recovering, and the feeling of powerlessness and soreness disappeared little by little, replaced by an increased sense of strength and incomparable comfort.

The little hand that sank in the medicinal bath was clenched into a fist, and he pressed hard, and Qi Ming was surprised to feel that his strength had really increased a lot.

"What are you laughing at, Xiao Qi, I'm still happy to be like this. ”

Jing Daochuan, who began to take needles for the two of them next to the medicine barrel, noticed the happiness on Qi Ming's face and asked.

Qi Ming let go of his fist and said with a smile: "Hehe~, I was thinking that I would probably have to take a bath with Old Man Ling for half a month." ”

"Stinky boy, you're beautiful. ”

Jing Daochuan understood the meaning of Qi Ming's words and refused directly.

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

With such conditions as Jingdaochuan at home, Qi Ming's training intensity was greater, and he set off before dawn.

At noon, I would come back to eat when I had time, and if I didn't have time, I would pick two fruits in the field and practice until the evening.

At night, when it was dark, I took a towel and followed Old Man Ling on time to take a medicinal bath and get acupuncture.

Qi Ming's desperate training frightened Jing Daochuan, and now his Xiaoqi is in the growth stage, and it is the time to supplement nutrition, so what can be done by eating a few fruits to satisfy hunger.

Jing Daochuan was distressed, and the old man Ling, who was looking at the vegetables pruning in the courtyard that day, said:

"Old man Ling, you have gone into the mountains to hunt a few rabbits or something these days, and make up for Xiao Qi, he can't do this. ”

Old man Ling was also shocked by Qi Ming's desperate strength and his will to persevere every day.

I thought to myself that if he didn't plant the seal and let him teach the cultivation, wouldn't he be the best in the world?

But it's just thinking about it, after all, if there is no seal, it may not make Qi Ming have such strength and will.

"What do you think?"

Jing Daochuan asked with accusations, thinking that now that Xiao Qi has become like this, he is still thinking of a hammer.

"Well, rabbits, I'll get it. ”

Qi Ming is also his little seven, how can the old man Ling not care about Qi Ming's body, as he spoke, he just got up and picked up the hoe leaning behind the gate and walked into the mountain.

At noon that day, Qi Mingyi returned to the door of the house and sniffed his nose, his brows furrowed, and the protruding Adam's apple moved up and down, and he couldn't help swallowing a large mouthful of saliva.

Muttered: "Are these two old men enlightened?"

muttered, and immediately pushed open the door and pulled his legs in.

After almost running to the firewood room in a charging posture, Qi Ming was stunned.

Seeing that the grueled meat appeared on the table of sauerkraut and radish in the past, the weak and tired little body suddenly trembled, and saliva flowed directly out of his mouth.

Seeing Jing Daochuan and Old Man Ling, who were squatting in front of the pot and holding a meat leg in their hands, they kept their saliva and shouted: "This is too extravagant!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly sat down at the table, swallowed his saliva and didn't care about anything, he directly put his hand into the basin and picked up a finished meat leg with one hand, and ate it in one gulp.

Soon, Qi Ming's little hands were covered with oil stains on his little face, and even his clothes were rubbed a lot.

"Haha~, look at your eating appearance. You slow down, every day in the future. ”

Jing Daochuan said with a smile.

At this point, Qi Ming will come back on time every day at noon and evening in the future to eat his fragrant and oily meat.

Under the scorching sun, the weak figure gasped for breath "Whoop~Whoa~", the sweat on his face was dripping down his chin, and his already weak body couldn't straighten his waist because of extreme fatigue, and he was even shorter on the path in the field.

The scorching sun in the sky was scorching, even the crops in the fields couldn't stand the scorching and went home early, and at this moment Qi Ming was still running on the field path.

Looking at the road in front of him, Qi Ming, whose body had begun to shake, kept telling himself to stop if he ran a little more.

Just like that, Qi Ming is constantly improving every day.

Qi Ming has wavered, but whenever he wavers, he will tell himself that the opportunity is only this time, and he must seize it.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Today is the day to set off for the Xuewutang test, and early in the morning, before dawn, Qi Ming woke up Jing Daochuan and Old Man Ling.

"Xiao Qi, it's too early. ”

"I just said that the chickens in the yard didn't crow. ”

The two stood in the yard and looked at the sky before dawn, as well as the chickens still lying in the nest, and complained to Qi Ming.

"Hehe~, today is not a big day. ”

Qi Ming, who was nagged by the two, looked at the still dark sky and felt that it was too early, and smiled awkwardly.

Then Ma slipped away and ran to the firewood room, "I'll cook today, hehe~"

"This kid probably hasn't slept all night. ”

Old Man Ling just noticed Qi Ming's dark eyes and bloodshot eyes, and muttered.

Jing Daochuan understood, but remained speechless.

"Young man~"

Indeed, as the two of them thought, Qi Ming couldn't sleep because of today's test, and he fantasized in his heart that his talent was super strong, and he showed off his strength in front of all the students.

Even thinking of the scene of relieving qi when he also formed a yuan core and taught Wang Shuo's black egg a hard lesson, Qi Ming would have a happy smile on his face when he thought of this.

"Giggle~"

At dawn, Qi Ming, who had eaten, came to the courtyard and walked to a stone pier in the corner of the courtyard.

Then he looked at Jing Daochuan and Old Man Ling, who were cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks in the firewood room, and raised his little hands with a smile on his face and shouted.

"Grandpa, come on. ”

"What's wrong?"

Jing Daochuan, who was tidying up the dishes and chopsticks, was puzzled.

"I guess this kid is going to show us off his achievements. Old man Ling was puzzled.

In the past half a month, he has seen that when Qi Ming finishes his body every time he finishes conditioning, he will go to the courtyard and move the stone pier in the corner of the courtyard.

That stone pier weighs more than 100 pounds, where can a six-year-old child move, every time Qi Ming returns in vain, and over time he doesn't pay attention to it.

Now seeing that Qi Ming was so happy to invite them to watch, Old Man Ling thought that Qi Ming could move it.

Qi Ming watched the two come out, didn't say much, a smile appeared on his face, clapped his little hands and looked at the big stone pier in front of him to his waist, and then bowed down and hugged it with both hands.

The stone pier is not only tall but also very thick, and Qi Ming's two small arms can only hold half of the stone pier and can't fit together.

But that's it, after letting out a loud shout in a small voice, "Ha!" Qi Ming's bowed body slowly got up, and the stone pier slowly left the ground.

Qi Ming's face was flushed, and the small hands on his neck were even more bruised. Picking up this stone pier of more than 100 catties has used up all the strength of his body.

However, he felt that this was not enough, and slowly moved forward holding the stone pier.

"Alright, alright. ”

Some sluggish Jingdaochuan saw that Qi Ming was still like this, for fear of being injured, and he was busy going over to stop it.

Seeing Jing Daochuan running worriedly, Qi Ming gave up, put down the stone pier and patted his little hand with a proud face to show off to Jing Daochuan and the old man Ling who came behind him:

"Grandpa, how about I'm amazing. ”

"Awesome, awesome. ”

Jing Daochuan pinched Qi Ming's little arm and praised while inspecting.

"Awesome. ”

Old Man Ling was also shocked by Qi Ming's strength, and praised him sincerely.

He originally thought that no matter how hard Qi Ming worked, and then he absorbed the medicinal properties of the herbs every day, he would only be able to move the stone pier a little, not like now.

This kind of strength is no longer inferior to that of a cultivator in the Tianyuan Realm, and Qi Ming is still just an ordinary child at all.

"It seems that there are some talents that cannot be sealed. "Old man Ling can only attribute this to this.

"Let's go. ”

With the approval of the two, Qi Ming's heart couldn't be happier, and he didn't want to wait at home for a moment to pull the two of them to Yu Qi's house.

After half a month of recuperation, Yu Qi can already walk slowly on the ground.

After Qi Ming received him, he rushed to Xuewutang together.

Today's Xuewutang is particularly lively, because the matter of Tianyuan Stone spread, and the people of Shili Eight Villages in Qingniu Township came with their children.

On the one hand, I want to let my children also test, and on the other hand, I want to see the excitement.

After all, if this is the outstanding talent of anyone's child, it is a rare big news and happy event in Qingniu Township, which is to be celebrated with wine.

"That's a lot of people. ”

Qi Ming helped Yu Qi to walk behind Jing Daochuan and Old Man Ling, and saw many people standing noisily in the open space outside the Xuewu Hall from a distance, and couldn't help but marvel.

"Uh-huh, there are too many of them. ”

The two children, who had never been out of Qingniu Township, couldn't help but be amazed by this kind of scene for the first time.

"Hey~"

The exclamation of the two children behind made the two adults walking in front of them look at each other and smile.

Simple, innocent, only a child would make such an exclamation.

"Doctor Jing, you're here. ”

Jingdaochuan has a great prestige in Qingniu Township, and as soon as he approached Qi Ming, he saw many people coming around to greet him.

Among them is Wang Shuo's father Wang Lin, and Wang Shuo who followed behind.

Seeing Wang Shuoqiming's face gloomy, and then his little face was smug again, thinking that his talent would definitely be able to trample him under his feet during the talent test.

"Hmph, it's all for nothing. ”

Wang Shuo, who is currently the first among his peers in Qingniu Township, saw the smugness on Qi Ming's face, and snorted disdainfully in his heart.

In the conversation between the adults, no one noticed the two of them fighting each other, and certainly no one paid attention to the two stinky little kids.

"Everyone, be quiet, let's get started here. ”

As more and more people arrived, soon, Shen Qianhua, who was in the Xuewu Hall, came out and stood on the steps of the door and said.

Teacher Shen's voice rang out in unison, and when he looked up, he saw that Teacher Shen was still wearing a white dress embroidered with bamboo leaves, chic and clean.

At this moment, there was a person beside Teacher Shen, who was tall and capable, wearing a body of clothes made of good fabrics, which highlighted a bit of nobility among the croppers who were full of coarse cloth.

It seems that that person is Mr. Shen's senior brother. Qi Ming thought in his heart, and at the same time followed Jing Daochuan and Old Man Ling towards the door of the Xuewu Hall.
