However, this also sounded the alarm for Su Yu.

Buy ancient martial arts on the black market, because you don't know ancient characters, even if you buy a fake, you can't go to the stall owner's trouble.

Not only that, because it was the first time he bought ancient martial arts on the street, Su Yu also had a kind of psychology of picking up leaks, and he didn't realize that ancient martial arts could also be cheating.

The ancient martial arts in his hand undoubtedly taught Su Yu a lesson.

Finding someone else to translate the ancient martial arts, after all, is restricted everywhere, and there is no way to know whether the ancient martial arts are true or not at the first time.

"Now it seems that I can only learn the ancient script myself to avoid being deceived the next time I encounter someone selling ancient martial arts."

Su Yu looked at the ancient martial arts content in his hand and couldn't help but sigh.

Although he paid his tuition fees on the black market, Su Yu didn't have much annoyance.

After all, even if he bought a real ancient martial art this time, sooner or later he would still encounter this kind of thing.

As the saying goes, if you eat a trench, you will grow wise, and with today's lesson, you will not continue to plant on it next time.

Learning ancient characters has become one of Su Yu's next goals.

Then Su Yu took out a pair of tonic again, first cleaned the herbs briefly, and then boiled them.

After drinking the tonic and resting for half an hour, Su Yu said silently: "Open the system panel." ”

……

[Host]: Su Yu

[Shou Yuan]: Immortality

[Cultivation]: Early stage of body refining+

[Martial Arts]: Inch Extension (Limit Breaking Technique)

[Danshu]: Blood Qi Dispersion (Entry) + Yuan Qi Dan (Entry) +

[Attributes]: 2 points

Just as he expected, a second attribute appeared in the attribute column.

Su Yu couldn't help but feel a little happy in his heart.

If nothing else, the remaining three pairs of medicinal materials in his hand should still be able to provide him with two attributes, which is enough for him to improve his cultivation to the late stage of body refining.

Su Yu immersed his mind in the column of cultivation, and said silently: "Add points!" ”

With the transformation of the early stage of refining into the middle stage of refining in the cultivation column, an abundant vitality rose from the abdomen, and then exploded, swept away along the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, and then all merged into the dantian

In the dantian, a vortex of vitality floating in mid-air was spinning rapidly.

It's just that as the abundant vitality continues to flow into the dantian, there are ripples and vibrations next to the vitality vortex, and then a rudimentary form of the vitality vortex appears, until it expands rapidly and transforms into a complete vitality vortex again.

The whole process is not over, and the vitality is still pouring into the dantian in a steady stream, until the third vitality vortex is fully formed in the dantian

Mid-refining stage!

The realm distinction of a body refining realm martial artist is very simple.

Condensing the first Vitality Vortex is considered to have entered the early stage of the Body Refining Realm.

The three Vitality Vortex are the middle stage, the six Vitality Vortex are the late stage, and the nine Vitality Vortex are the Perfection.

Until you condense the nine vitality vortices and reach the perfection of refining your body, you can try to condense your own copper skin and impact the eight-grade copper skin realm!

"Whew, I've finally stepped into the middle stage of refining."

Su Yu opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbidity, and in his deep ink-like eyes, there were three vitality vortices slowly disappearing.

Following.

Su Yu got up early, washed up, dressed neatly, had breakfast on the street, and then went in the direction of Zhenwusi.

Before he arrived at Zhenwusi, Su Yu bumped into Ji Longcheng and Chen Beijiang on the road, holding two meat buns in his hands.

Seeing Su Yu, the eyes of the two lit up, and they also quickened their pace to meet them.

"Brother Su, good morning."

Ji Longcheng ate the steaming meat bun in his hand and said in a mouthful.

Two rich second generations, just eat this thing for breakfast?

The corners of Su Yu's mouth twitched, and he greeted with a smile: "Good morning." ”

The three of them chatted and walked in the direction of Zhen Wuji.

Go to Zhenwu Si to order Mao, and then start fishing.

At noon, the three of them had no lunch at the Grand Hyatt Inn, and Su Yuwan refused Ji Longcheng's proposal to listen to the music in the afternoon, and walked straight in the direction of Kong Yangming's house.

Kong Yangming was a famous Confucian scholar in Tai'an City, who was proficient in the writing of ancient times.

Perhaps because of the literati and dissatisfaction with the darkness and intrigue of officialdom, he resigned and settled in Tai'an City.

Although he has a full stomach, he is not good at mixing, and he can only rely on helping people write couplets to eat all year round.

But in Tai'an City, the price is high, and Kong Yangming will also take on some translation work.

Su Yu was recommended by someone before, and one of the translators he found to translate ancient martial arts was him.

Kong Yangming's family lived in the poor area of Tai'an City, and in addition to him, there was also a grandson, the son was in business in his early years, and died at the hands of robbers, and his daughter-in-law took care of the housework until he died of illness.

"Hmph, ha, Wan Lun, you have died under the sword of my town, and now you have to fall to the ground and act as a corpse."

Before Su Yu reached Kong Yangming's house, he heard Kong Yangming's grandson Kong Jingming carrying a long wooden knife in the alley on the side, entering and exiting three times in and out of the siege of seven or eight playmates.

Well, he is now playing a town guard who kills all sides.

The influence of Zhenwu Division is undoubtedly deep into the homes of all the people in Kyushu, Great Wei.

Although Zhen Wuwei also often looted the oil and water of wealthy merchants, compared to the stability maintained under Zhen Wuwei's rule, ordinary people undoubtedly have great gratitude for Zhen Wuwei.

Just like the last time the whole city searched Gu Yuanjie's whereabouts, the wealthy merchants were the most affected, and ordinary people like Kong Yangming did not suffer much.

Zhen Wuwei also knows very well that it is difficult for families like this to find oil and water, and they generally do not think about making a fortune from these poor people.

In addition, when many ordinary people educate their children, they also hope that their children can become a town guard, and since then they have changed their own destiny.

Influenced by family education, many children will begin to unconsciously substitute themselves into the identity of Zhenwuwei since they are sensible, and the only requirement to play Zhenwuwei is to have a wooden Zhenwu knife.

Obviously, Kong Jingming, who has a wooden sword in the town, is the child king of this group of playmates.

When he saw Su Yu wearing a flying fish suit, Kong Ming, who was fighting with his playmates, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted him.

Kong asked in surprise, "Brother Su, why are you here?" ”

Although he said it to Su Yu, his eyes were looking directly at the Zhenwu knife hanging from Su Yu's waist, and his eyes were full of envy.

"See what I brought to you?"

Su Yu flipped his wrist, and there was already a string of sugar gourds in his hand.

"Wow, thank you, Brother Su!"

Kong Jingming took the sugar gourd handed by Su Yu and said with a look of surprise.

A string of sugar gourds worth a copper coin is a rare snack for him.

Several playmates in the distance saw this scene, and their little faces were full of envy.

For these children from poor families, a string of sugar gourds is worth one copper, and it is a problem for them to even have a full stomach, how can they have the money to buy this kind of snack.

"Oh, scream, there are six copper coins here, you take the five of them to the street to buy a string of sugar gourds each, and the remaining copper coin is yours."

Su Yu put the six copper coins in his hand in Kong Mingming's hand and said with a smile.

Looking at the six copper coins in his hand, Kong exclaimed, "Thank you, Brother Su!" ”

"Brother Su said, buy a string of sugar gourds for each of you."

Kong Jingming shook the copper coin in his hand in front of the other five friends, and said, "Thank you, everyone, Brother Su." ”

"Thank you, Brother Su!"

The other five teenagers said loudly.

Su Yu patted Kong Ming's head and said with a smile: "Go ahead, pay attention to safety on the street." ”

Looking at the backs of Kong Jingming and the other five friends who were far away, Su Yu's eyes couldn't help but pass a trace of amazement.

In his previous life, he had encountered such a situation once, but the role he played at that time was one of the five people.

It's just a pity that at that time, he could only watch his friends eat a fruit called mango.

When he grew up and earned enough money to buy a lot of mangoes, he was no longer the teenager he once was, and he had already passed the age of gluttony.

Su Yu walked straight into Kong Yangming's house, compared to the area where the rich people of Tai'an City were stationed, Kong Yangming's house undoubtedly looked very shabby.

There are only simple wooden furniture, pots and pans, and the kitchen functions as a living room and dining room, stacked with firewood, and there is nothing of value as far as the eye can see.

"Old Kong, the kid is bothering you again."

Su Yu walked into the study and said with a smile.

What caught his eye was an old man with a thin face and white hair, this person was Kong Yangming, who was seventy-three years old today, although he was poor, and the linen robe on his body had been washed white, but he was unusually neat.

At the moment, he was lying in a shabby rocking chair, sipping cheap tea.

The first time he came over, Su Yu drank it once.

The feeling of the tea gave him was like a tea leaf roasted from a random tree, which was not only bitter, but also had a muddy smell, and it didn't look like it could be used for people to drink at all.

"Oh?"

Seeing Su Yu, Kong Yangming couldn't help but be stunned.

There are not many people who ask him to translate ancient characters, which also causes him to have a very good impression of Su Yu.

I only earned ten taels of silver from Su Yu yesterday, and I was still thinking about when the other party would come to visit again, but I didn't expect the other party to come to the door again so quickly.

"Xiao Su, do you need to translate ancient characters?"

Kong Yangming straightened up his waist and couldn't help asking.

"It's not." Su Yu shook his head.

When Kong Yangming heard this, his face was puzzled, he took a sip of hot tea, and said, "Then what are you doing here to find the old man?" ”

Su Yu smiled: "I want to learn the writing of the ancient times. ”

"Poof!"

The tea that Kong Yangming had just drunk in his mouth squirted out directly.

His eyes widened, he looked at Su Yu in a daze, and said in a lost voice: "You want to learn the characters of the ancient times?" ”

Su Yu said this sentence, which made him puzzled.

Nowadays, few people are willing to learn the writing of ancient times.

At the beginning, he studied ancient scripts, but only because he had nothing to do in his spare time, and then he studied systematically under the guidance of his husband.

Now, decades have passed, and the entire Tai'an City can still know all the ancient characters, and they can be counted on two hands.

And Su Yu, as a town martial guard, is busy with affairs, and he needs to spend a lot of time on cultivation every day, so he still has time to learn ancient characters?

"As a martial artist and a martial guard, there is no need to waste time learning ancient characters."

Kong Yangming frowned slightly, and said lightly: "The time you waste cultivating ancient characters, it is better to use it for cultivation, after all, there are not many places you need to use to identify ancient characters, instead of learning, it is better to spend some money to hire someone to translate." ”

Kong Yangming still has a very good impression of Su Yu, and he spends money generously, and he doesn't mind saying a few more words of persuasion.

Even he didn't think there was any point in learning the ancient script.

"For me, ancient writing is a must."

Su Yu snorted in his heart.

If the next time you meet someone selling ancient martial arts on the black market, and he doesn't know the ancient characters, will he buy it or not?

Instead of being passive, it is better to learn the ancient script as soon as possible, so that you will not face such a dilemma next time.

"Old Kong, you don't have to persuade the kid."

Su Yu said with a smile: "Elder Kong might as well talk about how much tuition you need to pay to teach the kid to learn ancient characters." ”

"Tuition?"

Kong Yangming couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He didn't take money very seriously, and if he was an official for money, he would not have resigned in anger and went into hiding.

For ordinary people in this era, he is already an advanced age now.

And his grandson is only nine years old now, and he still has a long way to go.

This is also a piece of his heart.

If he loses it one day, who should take care of Kong Jingming.

His dream is to become a town guard.

But for people from such poor families, how can they support Kong Jingming's dream?

Even at this level of improving blood qi, Kong Jingming was already shut out.

Kong Jingming is still young, maybe he hasn't realized this yet, isn't he still clear?

Even if the imperial court made the cultivation methods of martial artists public, the possibility of ordinary people becoming martial artists was still very small.

Whether it is the demon beast meat that enhances the blood qi or the blood qi dispersion, it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

"Since you really want to learn, the old man can teach you without reservation."

Kong Yangming paused and said, "As for the tuition, the old man wants a pound of blood and qi to disperse!" ”

A pound of blood and gas?

When Su Yu heard this, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

This request was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.

If it was for money, Kong Yangming would not have resigned and gone into hiding.

His only weakness now is his grandson Kong's screaming.

If Kong Jingming wants to become a martial artist, he naturally can't do without using blood qi to improve blood qi.

According to the lowest price of ten taels of silver for a penny, one tael is one hundred taels, and one catty is one thousand taels.

And this is still the lowest price, when the supply of blood and qi is in short supply, a pound of blood and qi can even be sold for a high price of 131400.

However, Su Yu had learned to refine the Blood Qi Dispersion, and he only needed to pay a cost to purchase the Blood Qi Dispersion to obtain the low-priced Blood Qi Dispersion.

It's just that with his current energy, he can only refine four furnaces of blood qi in a month.

If you refine the Blood Qi Dispersion, there is no way to refine the Yuan Qi Pill to make money.

If you really want to calculate the account, it is naturally more profitable to refine the Yuan Qi Pill, and then spend money to buy the blood and qi that is scattered.

If you refine four furnaces of blood and qi in a month, you will earn four hundred taels of silver.

Refining the second furnace of Yuan Qi Pill in a month can earn 1,200 taels of silver.

The profit from refining two Yuan Qi Pills was enough for him to pay for the tuition fee of learning ancient characters.

Although the price is a little higher, if it only costs fifty yuan crystals, he can still accept it, learning ancient characters is of great use to him, and this money cannot be saved.

"According to what Elder Kong said, I can give a pound of blood and qi as tuition."

Su Yu said: "But I don't have so much money in my hand, so I can only pay this tuition fee in several times, but I can guarantee that I can pay all the tuition fees before I learn all the ancient characters, what about Kong Laoyi?" ”

Hearing Su Yu's promise, Kong Yangming couldn't help but be stunned.

A pound of blood is dissipated, at least a thousand taels of silver, but it is a lot of money.

Unexpectedly, Su Yu only thought about it for a moment, and then directly agreed to his request.

"That's okay, the old man is often free, you can come and learn when you have time."

Kong Yangming said: "If you have more time, you can learn it completely in about a month or two." ”

Su Yu said with a smile: "When I don't go on a mission, I usually have time in the afternoon, so I can start today!" ”

"Alright, then we can start now."

"There are a total of 2,137 characters in ancient writing, and the strokes are cumbersome and obscure, and in order to make writing easier and faster, later generations of writing have simplified the ancient texts."

"That's why today's writing is similar to the writing of ancient times."

"In addition, the ancient era has been tens of thousands of years old, and many ancient texts on ancient books have already been translated, only some unexcavated mausoleums in ancient times will be unearthed some martial arts in ancient times, and there will be certain discrepancies in ancient texts in different eras."

"However, because of the difficulty of cultivating ancient martial arts, ancient martial arts are almost unpopular in this era."

Speaking of this, Kong Yangming couldn't help but glance at Su Yu.

The other party came twice and spent a lot of money to find him to translate the ancient text, and the content on it actually didn't need to guess, he knew that it was an ancient martial art.

It's just that Su Yu is very smart, he re-transcribed the text on it and disrupted it all, and some of his translations were also incomplete, presumably he didn't give him all the ancient martial arts to translate.

In this way, except for Su Yu himself, no one else could spy on the full content of this ancient martial art.

At the same time, he couldn't help but be a little curious in his heart.

Su Yu translated ancient martial arts, did he want to cultivate ancient martial arts?

Isn't that a bit worth the cost?

It takes several years or even more than ten years for an ancient martial art to go from cultivation to entry.

Just like the ancient script, it is cumbersome and cumbersome, and it is far less easy to write than the text that has been abbreviated by later generations.

It is precisely because it is difficult to cultivate that the ancient martial arts gradually withdrew from the trend of history.

Later generations of martial artists were more inclined to cultivate martial arts that could be introduced in a few months, and then spend most of their time improving their cultivation and obtaining cultivation resources.

Of course, curiosity is curiosity, Kong Yangming is just an ordinary person who has lived for most of his life, and he also deeply understands that knowing too much is not a good thing.

Facing Kong Yangming's sweeping gaze, Su Yu's face was a little scornful.

Kong Yangming said so, presumably knowing that the ancient text he had translated was actually an ancient martial art.

Several hours passed, and after Kong Yangming's in-depth teaching, Su Yu also had a certain understanding of ancient characters.

In a few hours, Su Yu also learned more than 100 ancient characters.

This made him feel greatly encouraged, and he felt that in less than a month, he would be able to learn all the ancient characters.

Looking at Su Yu's excited look, Kong Yangming directly poured a basin of cold water.

"The more than 100 ancient characters that the old man taught you today are the same as the 'one, two, three, four, sun, moon, heaven and earth' in later generations, just the most basic ancient characters, and the ancient characters in the back will become more and more difficult, you have to be prepared."

Su Yu: "."

"Alright, that's all for today's lesson."

Kong Yangming looked out the window, and before he knew it, it was already dusk.

"Okay, that kid will come back tomorrow." Su Yu hugged his fists and bowed, and held the disciple salute.

At this moment, the gate in the courtyard opened, and Kong Jingming walked in with a box of delicate pastries.

"Grandpa, Sister Ya is here again and brought us osmanthus cake."

Kong Jingming walked into the room and saw that Su Yu was also there, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Su, you are also here, try it, this is a pastry from Xue Kwai Fong, it is very expensive." ”
