Chapter 9: Martial Food
Martial arts.
After Lu Yan broke the limit, Lu Qingshan mentioned it more than once.
Lu Qingshan had sighed several times that with Lu Yan's martial arts talent, if he was assisted by martial arts, his cultivation speed would be even more amazing.
Martial food is made of exotic beast meat as the main material, with a variety of spiritual grasses, plus a variety of precious condiments, cooked by the 'martial chef'.
Not only is it delicious and easy to digest, but it also contains rich and pure energy, which is an indispensable aid for martial arts cultivation.
Its effect is very different from that of ordinary animal meat.
But the meat of exotic beasts is extremely precious and difficult for ordinary people to access.
The number of times Lu Qingshan had eaten it before was also very limited.
It is said that those descendants or talented people in the gate valve eat martial arts food for three meals a day.
If there is martial arts, the progress of the Iron Fist should be greatly increased.
But most of the martial arts are in the hands of the gate valve, and with his current strength and financial resources, it is difficult to get them.
For the time being, let's honestly rely on ordinary beast meat to cultivate.
In this way, more than a month passed, and the progress of Iron Wire Fist finally climbed to the point of being superb, with a progress of less than 2% per day.
The biggest advantage of Daoshu is that there is no bottleneck, as long as the progress reaches 100% of each level, it will be a natural breakthrough.
No matter how high the talent of others is, the breakthrough between the levels will have to be stuck for a while.
At this time, Lu Yan was 15 years old and had been in this world for more than seven months.
What he was worried about really happened, when the Iron Fist reached the 'Divine Transformation', the progress stopped completely, and he didn't move, even if he absorbed more energy, the Iron Wire Fist clone continued to practice boxing, and the progress always stopped at the Divine Perfection (1%).
Sure enough, ordinary beast meat is useless, and if you want to continue to improve, you probably have to eat martial arts.
Lu Yan could only turn to the archery clone to absorb energy and cultivate.
But after a while, after the archery clone was promoted to the point of being supernatural, it didn't move.
The progress of archery is not moving, it is not the same as iron fist, it is not that ordinary meat is useless, but that the cultivation has reached the end.
Ordinary archery is not martial arts after all, it does not involve qi and blood, and there is no such level as the unity of martial arts.
The most hateful thing is that the two clones stopped, and Dao Shu still had to absorb half of the energy of the food each time.
Lu Yan was quite speechless.
Of course, the Iron Wire Fist broke through and opened up 288 branch veins, greatly increasing the efficiency of absorbing and transforming energy, and greatly increasing the speed of accumulating qi and blood.
Three months after the Iron Wire Fist broke through the supernatural transformation, Lu Yan was full of blood again, sensing the second sealed door.
Under the supernatural iron fist, there was no suspense, Lu Yan successfully broke the door and became a second limit-breaking martial artist, which was comparable to Lu Qingshan's peak.
Of course, this time Lu Yan deliberately concealed it and did not tell Lu Qingshan, that is, during the seven-day rapid ascension period after breaking the limit, he was also cultivating alone in the mountains.
The main thing is that this progress is too appalling, and the less people know about it, the better.
During this time, he also encountered a fierce tiger, and after a fight, he successfully hunted it and obtained a complete tiger skin.
After breaking the limit for the second time, his strength increased greatly, and Lu Yan was a lot more confident, and sometimes he would take wolf skins, cowhides or fox skins to Changfeng City to sell in exchange for money.
Gradually, Lu Yan also accumulated some silver money on hand.
After that, he changed himself to an iron bow and arrows.
It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and Lu Yan's amazing archery skills are difficult to exert ten percent of the power without a good bow.
As for the tiger skin, it was not sold for the time being.
Lu Yan inquired that a complete tiger skin was worth at least 100 taels of silver, equivalent to 100,000 yuan on the earth.
This value may be coveted by those limit-breaking martial artists, and Lu Yan plans to prepare it later before selling it.
......
In the middle of the night, dark clouds were thick, the sky and the earth were dark, and the small village was completely covered in darkness.
Suddenly, Lu Yan woke up from his deep sleep.
There was a rustling sound outside.
Someone sneaked in.
Lu Yan was just about to get up when he heard the sound of the door opening next door.
"Not good."
Lu Yan's face changed.
Listening to the sound of breathing, it was Wang Cui.
The sound outside was very small, Wang Cui was just an ordinary person, it was impossible to hear the movement outside in his sleep, even Lu Qingshan couldn't hear it, there was only one explanation, that is, Wang Cui just got up to go to the toilet at this time.
If you run into someone who sneaks in, you may be in danger.
Lu Yan immediately got up and rushed out, and at this time, Wang Cui's exclamation was also heard: "Ah, who are you?" Thief. ”
Swish!
As soon as Lu Yan rushed out of the room, he saw a black shadow, holding a kitchen knife, slashing at Wang Cui's neck.
If he is cut, Wang Cui is afraid that he will be more than lucky.
At the critical moment, Lu Yan suddenly picked up a flat pole on the side and threw it out, hitting the black shadow's arm.
Lu Yan's strength is so strong now, the bones of the black shadow arm were directly broken, and the kitchen knife also fell to the ground.
Yes!
The shadow screamed, turned and fled.
Lu Yansan caught up with him in two steps, kicked on the opponent's calf, and with a click, the opponent's calf bone broke, plopped, and fell to the ground.
"Spare your life, spare your life, Lu Yan, no, Brother Yan, spare your life."
The shadow screamed in horror.
Lu Yan ripped off the other party's mask in the past, and his eyes were cold: "It's you." ”
Lu Chuan, the scoundrel of the mountain village second only to Wu Chaofeng, was the first to find the bodies of Wu Chaofeng.
This person also came from exile with Lu Yan and them, and he also belonged to Lujia Village with Lu Qingshan before.
In Lu Yan's memory, because this person's parents were too spoiled, he developed the habit of being idle, lazy, and gnawing at home.
This person did not have the skills of Wu Chaofeng and others, and did not dare to snatch other people's food, so while in exile, he drove his parents to find food for him.
But if he found anything to eat, he took it away and ate it all, leaving nothing for his parents.
In the end, his parents starved to death on the road, but he didn't care at all, telling outsiders that it was all voluntary by the two old men and had nothing to do with him.
This kind of person, even Wu Chaofeng disdains to be with him, so Lu Chuan has always wanted to take refuge in Wu Chaofeng, but he refused.
"Brother Yan, spare my life, I'm just hungry and want to steal some food, spare my dog's life, I won't dare next time."
Lu Chuan begged for mercy with a handful of snot and tears.
"Stealing food, bringing a knife?"
Lu Yan's face was frosty, and he picked up the kitchen knife on the ground and found that it was freshly polished and extremely sharp.
Bringing a sharpened knife, he was obviously prepared to kill people if he was discovered.
It's just that he never expected that Lu Yan's strength was terrifying, and he could easily break his hands and feet.
"Damn, are you alright?"
Lu Qingshan had already woken up and helped Wang Cui.
Wang Cui's face was pale, and he had palpitations in his heart.
"Boss, I'm fine, it's good to say that I made a timely move." Wang Cui comforted Lu Qingshan.
"Yan'er, what are you going to do with him?"
Lu Qingshan asked.
Lu Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Report to the Liu family and execute in public to set an example." ”
Lu Yan could have killed Lu Chuan directly, but he had another consideration.
Obviously, now their conditions are getting better and better, and there are not a few villagers who covet them.
Without Lu Chuan, I'm afraid there will be others.
Killing it directly will not have the effect of deterrence.
Execution in public can be intimidating.
But he is not the gate lord Liu, and he does not have the power to execute in public, so he has to report to the Liu family.
......
The next day, the entrance of the village was already full of villagers.
Lu Chuan was tied up by five flowers and knelt at the entrance of the village.
Lu Yan folded his arms and waited quietly.
He was waiting for the red guard, and he asked the village chief to report Lu Chuan's crime, which was to intend to commit murder and theft.
He wasn't sure that the Red Guards would definitely come, after all, in the eyes of the Red Guards, this might be a trivial matter like sesame mung beans.
If the Red Yiwei didn't come in the end, he would completely abolish Lu Chuan and leave him to fend for himself.
When the sun was shining three poles, the two red figures were late.
The two people who came were still the two who dealt with Wu Chaofeng's murder last time, the older one was named Zhang Jun with a full face of scum, and the younger one was named Chen Ji.
"Such a horn is really a lot of trouble."
Zhang Jun muttered impatiently.
If he wasn't in a good mood today, he wouldn't have bothered to come.
Chen Ji always had a smile on his face and did not speak.
"Grass people Lu Yan, I have seen two adults."
Lu Yan strode up, bowed down and clenched his fists, then stretched out his hand to hand over the broken silver that had been prepared a long time ago, and said, "The two adults have worked hard, this is a little heart, please eat and drink the two adults." ”
Zhang Jun took it very smoothly, checked it for about two taels, the impatience on his face disappeared, showed a smile, and said, "You reported the case?" ”
"It's the grass people."
Lu Yan nodded.
Zhang Jun and Chen Ji looked at Lu Yan curiously.
After breaking the limit for the second time, Lu Yan's height rose again, about 1.85 meters, which stood out among the villagers who were bitter.
"Adults, two adults, the villain is wronged."
At this time, Lu Chuan cried out.
"Oh?"
Zhang Jun and Chen Ji looked at Lu Chuan, and when they saw Lu Chuan's broken hands and feet, their faces changed slightly.
Zhang Jun immediately stepped forward to check Lu Chuan's hands and feet, then looked at Lu Yan and said, "You interrupted this?" ”
"It's seen."
Lu Yan's heart moved.
Lu Chuan's hands and feet were broken by a blow, and his bones were shattered, ordinary people couldn't do it at all, only limit-breaking martial artists had this power.
If Lu Yan was a limit-breaking martial artist, the death of Wu Chaofeng and a few people a few months ago would be about to come out.
But Lu Yan didn't panic.
When he was ready to report, he was ready to be seen.
He didn't believe that Zhang Jun and Chen Ji would pursue him, a limit-breaking martial artist, for the sake of a few scoundrels who had been dead for a few months.
He has long seen through that in this world, strength is everything.
"Yes, sir."
Lu Yan hugged his fists.
An inexplicable charm flashed in Zhang Jun's eyes, and he said, "You said that he intended to commit murder and theft?" ”
"Yes!"
"Where's the murder weapon?"
Lu Qingshan immediately presented the kitchen knife that Lu Chuan carried last night.
"My lord, I am wronged, there is no such thing at all, they slandered me."
Lu Chuan shouted.
"Slander? In this case, then bring them all back to the red guards for interrogation, if anyone lies, I will let him live rather than die. ”
Zhang Jun showed a hideous look, and his killing intent was as cold as a knife.
Lu Chuan's face turned pale.
Sonor!
The sword light slashed through the void like a match, and Lu Chuan's head flew high, and blood spurted more than a meter high.
"Dare to quibble in front of the Red Guards, looking for death."
Zhang Jun opened his mouth indifferently and put the knife into the sheath.
The surrounding villagers turned pale and frightened.
Some of them also wanted to find an opportunity to go to Lu Yan's house to steal secretly.
Lu Yan knew that the purpose of killing chickens and monkeys had been achieved, and no one should go to his house to steal in the future.
"Okay, the matter has been settled, let's disperse, remember to drag the body away and bury it."
Zhang Jun waved his hand to let the villagers disperse, and said to Lu Yan: "Little brother, take a step to speak." ”
"Yes!"
Lu Yan, Zhang Jun and Chen Ji walked aside.
"What do you call the little brother?" Zhang Jun asked.
"Lu Yan."
"Lu Yan, are you a limit-breaking martial artist?"
Zhang Jun asked again.
"Back to my lord, yes, the villain has been practicing boxing for three years, and he was lucky enough to break the first sealed door a month ago."
Lu Yan said.
Three years to break the limit, ordinary among the martial arts, neither up nor down.
Of course, those disciples of the gate valve are a different matter.
Limit-breaking martial artists, without a real fight, it is difficult to discover the true cultivation of the other party, and Lu Yan naturally cannot expose all his details.
"The limit was broken a month ago?"
Zhang Jun smiled meaningfully.
He could conclude that Wu Chaofeng and a few people a few months ago were killed by Lu Yan.
But what does it have to do with him?
"Lu Yan, do you want to join the Red Guard?"
Zhang Jun said again.
"Join the Red Guard?" Lu Yan was stunned.
Truth be told, he was moved.
The red guard, belonging to the gate valve Liu family, has the responsibility of maintaining law and order and arresting criminals, which is equivalent to the previous arrest, and his status is not comparable to ordinary people.
"Your Excellency..."
"Eh, you don't need to be called by an adult, just call me Brother Jun."
Zhang Jun said boldly.
"Brother Jun, I don't know what conditions are required to join the Red Guard?" Lu Yan asked.
"The conditions are very simple, as long as you are innocent and not a spy sent by the Wu family, you can join if you cultivate more than once to break the limit."
"Don't hide it from my brother, recommend a good seedling to join the Red Guard, and I will also have a lot of rewards."
Zhang Jundao.
The reason for such a straightforward Dao made Lu Yan have a little good impression of Zhang Jun.
"My brother is now cultivating and eating ordinary meat, after breaking the limit, the role of ordinary meat will become weaker and weaker, and after joining the Red Guard, there is a distribution of martial food, those who have just joined, they can eat martial food once every five days, and as the status rises in the future, there will be more martial food."
"Moreover, everyone who has just joined can receive a third-rate martial art for free."
Seeing that Lu Yan was still hesitating, Zhang Jun continued to persuade.
There are martial arts and martial arts.
To be honest, Lu Yan was a little moved, but after thinking about it for a while, Lu Yan still said: "Thank you Brother Jun for your love, but Lu Yan's family has parents, if I join the Red Guard, stay in the city, I don't worry about my parents outside, wait until I save enough money to buy a suite in the city, and then enter the Red Guard, at that time, I hope Brother Jun will recommend it." ”
"You are filial, in this case, I am not reluctant, if you want to buy a house in the future, just look for me, I will take you to buy, to ensure that no one dares to kill you, the price is fair."
Zhang Jun laughed, not surprised by Lu Yan's lack of agreement.
"By the way, there is another point to remind my brother, it has not been peaceful recently, there are rogues from Qingfeng County, and many villages have been plundered by rogues, with countless deaths and injuries."
Then, Zhang Jun admonished again.
"A rogue from Qingfeng County."
Lu Yan's face changed.
Qingfeng County, which is Lu Qingshan's former hometown, suffered from natural disasters, and bandits and bandits were everywhere, but I didn't expect that there were already rogues in Changfeng City.
"Thank you Brother Jun for informing me, Lu Yan will be careful." Lu Yan thanked him.
"Gone." Zhang Jun waved his hand and strode away with Chen Ji.
