Chapter 7 Burying Friendly Soldiers
Time passed, and the disappearance of a few herb pickers was like a small pebble falling into a lake, causing a little ripple, but it quickly calmed down, and no one mentioned it anymore......
In the mountains and forests, it is as quiet as ever.
Shout~
The sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and a sharp arrow shot out, hitting a large tree with precision.
"It's not that hard!"
More than a dozen zhang away, Jiang Ming was carrying a hunting bow, his eyes calm.
Since he talked to Lao Zhoutou about learning martial arts that day, the other party did not hide his secrets, and when they drank together, they often taught him some basic preparations that he needed to make before formally learning martial arts.
Learning martial arts is not a trick, if the foundation is not good, it is possible to become disabled in practice.
The first is physical fitness, Jiang Ming's physique is far beyond ordinary people, so naturally there is no problem.
In addition to this, it is more important to refine the breathing method internally.
If the method of external refining is an arrow that bursts out of power, the internal refining breathing method is the bow that controls power, and if the breathing method is not practiced correctly, not only is it difficult to advance on the road of martial arts, but it is also very easy to hurt the body.
If you want to learn the inner breathing method, you must first control your breathing pattern.
Archery is a skill that requires a lot of breath control.
In order to practice controlling his own breathing, Jiang Ming spent thirty copper coins to buy a hunting bow, and has been practicing archery in the mountains for the past few days, and entering the country is quite fast.
Now, within ten zhang, he can accurately shoot a large tree as thick as a person, which is still far from those experienced hunters, but it is far beyond ordinary people.
"Maybe it's because I'm immortal, I don't have the impatience to rush to practice when I practice archery, and I am calm, but I am making rapid progress......"
Jiang Ming guessed in his heart.
The method of internal refining is indeed very related to the state of mind, martial arts cultivation is a water grinding process, and the more eager you are, the easier it is to fail......
Towards evening, Jiang Ming shook his sore shoulders and returned to the cave where he was sheltering.
In the cave, most of the medicinal materials were missing, and almost all of them were transported down the mountain by him in batches, and in addition to selling some of them himself, he also secretly shared some profits for Lao Zhoutou.
After all, if you want to learn martial arts from Lao Zhoutou, you must always give the other party some benefits......
The next morning, clouds and light rain were pouring down.
After Jiang Ming finished practicing boxing as usual, he set up a small stove at the entrance of the cave, and the clay pot was steaming on the fire, and the tea soup was bubbling inside.
He sat casually on the floor, poured himself a bowl of coarse tea, and sipped slowly as he ate dry cakes......
Life is long, but you also need to know how to enjoy life.
Cuckoo~
A fat gray rabbit popped out of nowhere and circled around Jiang Ming.
"Master Gray, have you found medicinal herbs again?" Jiang Ming showed joy and hurriedly said, "Which one?" ”
The gray rabbit hurriedly rushed to the cave, pulled out a yellow rhizome the size of a thumb cover from a pile of different medicinal herbs, and raised it back to Jiang Ming with his two front paws.
"Really? Take me there! Jiang Ming's eyes lit up, and he stood up suddenly.
In order to train the gray master to find medicine, Jiang Ming did not hesitate to spend hundreds of copper coins to buy a little bit of all kinds of precious medicinal materials.
This yellow rhizome is a top-notch medicinal material, and if you can really find it, you will definitely make a fortune.
Soon, one man and one rabbit set off and went deep into the mountains and forests.
Half an hour later, in a dense forest where there is no sunlight all year round.
Jiang Ming held a golden rhizome shaped like a combination of worms and ginseng, and his face was happy.
"Golden worm ginseng, one plant can be sold for five hundred copper coins!"
Moreover, as long as one plant of this golden ginseng is found, there must be more ...... nearby
"Gray Ye is angry, I will eat in one bite in the future, and I will definitely not be hungry for you!"
"Goo~"
The gray master jumped to invite merit, and then a reckless man sprinted, and plunged deeper into the dense forest.
"Hey, wait a minute......"
Before Jiang Ming's words fell, a roar suddenly came from the dense forest.
"Roar~"
Then there was a fluttering sound of chickens flying and dogs jumping!
"!"
When Jiang Ming arrived at the scene of the crime, he only saw a bobcat with mixed hair, biting the neck of the gray master......
Jiang Ming immediately rushed forward with a firewood knife and stabbed the murderer of Gray Ye to death in a few clicks, but unfortunately only saved half of Gray Ye's body.
"Master Gray, you're impulsive......" Jiang Ming sighed and dug a pit to bury him.
For the sacrifice of the gray master, Jiang Ming had already prepared in his heart, after all, the mountains and forests were unpredictable...... I just didn't expect this day to come so quickly.
"Master Gray, without you, I don't want to collect medicine." Jiang Ming sighed and decided to go home for a few days on vacation to pay tribute.
Of course, there is another reason, Jiang Ming is going to re-purchase the medicinal materials for refining the Imperial Beast Red Liquid, and after enjoying the feeling of getting something for nothing, he can't go back......
In Ping'an Town, as always, the few herb pickers who disappeared seemed irrelevant, and even the topics in the tavern were no longer mentioned.
However, Jiang Ming found that there always seemed to be some vague gaze in the town, sweeping over him.
In the tavern, Jiang Ming and Lao Zhoutou gathered at the same table, and this time they ordered a more expensive old ginseng wine, and there were two more snacks for the snacks.
With the increasing amount of money in his pocket, Jiang Ming's living standard has also improved a lot, and even the equipment such as firewood knives and medicine sickles that entered the mountains have been replaced.
"Ah Ming, do you remember that Lu Laosan?" Lao Zhou chewed peanuts and asked with squinted eyes.
Jiang Ming said calmly: "What? Dead? ”
Old Zhou was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Jiang Ming, as if he had met this young man for the first time.
He smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "It's not dead, but his tongue was pulled out, and the silver was lost, and now he is crazy every day......"
"During this time, you have sold a lot of medicines, and many people have seen it!" Lao Zhoutou ordered a few dishes on the table, and said meaningfully.
Jiang Ming smiled and didn't care: "I didn't sell much, those people won't break the rules for this money." ”
Lao Zhou's brows frowned slightly: "Of course the old scar and those officials are too lazy to care, but there are still many idle gangsters in the town......"
"Master Zhou!" Jiang Ming took a sip of the wine in the bowl, took a long breath and said: "There is not only one way to live, I have my own way, you wait for me to save enough money, and find you to learn martial arts." ”
Old Zhou was stunned, then sighed, and didn't say anything more, just if this young man was young and frivolous, maybe he would suffer a little more before he could be rubbed off the edges and corners.
Jiang Ming also didn't have many words, arguing about these useless, only the final result was convincing.
Drinking in the morning, shopping in the afternoon, buying some tea, rice and noodles, Jiang Ming went home leisurely, such a life full of fireworks in the world is also calm and interesting.
"Huh? In such a hurry? Jiang Ming's pace suddenly slowed down.
It was a narrow dirt road in the field, and there were almost no people in normal times, but today there were two young people hanging in front of it.
He turned his head to look, and there were also a few hairy boys in tattered clothes behind him, their eyes dodging, but they were pressing forward step by step.
"Amin, I heard that good luck has been in place these days!"
Led by a young man with dark skin and thick limbs, dangling a firewood knife in his hand, slowly walked in front of Jiang Ming.
"Brothers, I'm a little short of money at this time, so I'm looking for you to borrow some money to spend......"
