20. Boil water

Inside the stargazing tower, the long pearl glows brightly and softly.

"Your Highness, the cultivation path of the Xia Hong clan royal family is called the path of the ancient gods."

Baili Fengzhi stood opposite Lin Yue and said softly: "Different from the cultivation of the three sects, the way of the ancient gods is essentially to let the people of the Xia Hong clan transform towards the primeval gods, and it is rumored that if they can cultivate to the realm of His Majesty the God Emperor, they will be no less than the legendary primeval gods. ”

"The Way of the Old Gods?"

Lin Yue, who looked like Xia Lie, was lazily leaning on the recliner at this time, squinting his eyes and asking, "Then do you know the cultivation method?" After saying so for a long time, don't tell me you don't know. ”

If others dared to talk to her like this, she would have cured her of a crime of disrespect, but after all, she was a prince, and Baili Fengzhi could only endure it.

She immediately said patiently: "The last general has already prepared three cultivation methods for His Highness, and there is no specific cultivation method for the path of the ancient gods, just need to simply absorb the vitality of heaven and earth. ”

Lin Yue was surprised: "Just need simple absorption? ”

"Your Highness, the key to the way of the ancient gods lies in the bloodline of the Xia Hong clan."

Baili Fengzhi said: "Legend has it that when the gods were born in the primeval period, they simply absorbed the vitality of heaven and earth, and finally they could have incredible power. ”

"Oh?" Lin Yue was surprised.

"Your Highness, please see."

Baili Fengzhi took out three thin classics from his arms and handed them to Lin Yue, "Xia Hong's clan has three basic methods, which are to strengthen the body with the vitality of heaven and earth, the yuan force, and the divine soul, which are very superficial, but the effect is also very good, Your Highness only needs to learn two of them." ”

"Why only two?" Lin Yue took it and asked.

Literally, the body and the soul are easy to understand, and the Yuan Force should be energy, right?

"Your Highness, the energy of a person's life is limited, even if it is the bloodline of the Xia Hong clan."

Baili Fengzhi explained: "Some people from the Xia Hong clan even only learn one, only strengthening one of the body, Yuan Force, and Divine Soul, and concentrating on it in order to go further. ”

Lin Yue suddenly asked with interest: "Wouldn't it be better for me to concentrate on learning one?" Are you trying to harm me by asking me to learn two? ”

He hasn't forgotten his character.

Xia Lie's sensitive neurotic personality has to speak like this at this time.

Baili Fengzhi's endurance is also very strong, pretending not to hear, but patiently explained: "Your Royal Highness is the prince, the bloodline is extremely pure, it will not be difficult to break the Four Elephants Heavenly Pass or even higher in the future, even if you learn two, it will have no effect, but complement each other, and the advantages are greater." ”

"Besides, there is no weakness in any aspect of cultivation to the depths, and it will also feed back and help the other two paths."

Baili Fengzhi said: "The cultivation of the physical body to the depths can feed back the soul and Yuan power, and the strongest soul can also condense the body and Yuan power with one thought, and the Yuan Force will also strengthen the body and soul, so His Royal Highness has a great advantage in taking two of these paths." ”

Lin Yue thought for a while and asked, "Which two roads have the strongest ability to save lives?" Combat power is also strong? ”

After all, in the turmoil that is destined to occur in the future, you still have to have enough life-saving ability and combat power to survive better.

"The path with the strongest ability to save one's life is, of course, to cultivate the physical body."

Baili Fengzhi said: "Not only is it better than the Taoist body sanctification, but the combat power is also quite good, but the path of the pure body is a bit stupid, His Royal Highness can also cultivate the Yuan force, you can exert extremely high combat power, and it can also make the body stronger, as for the path of the divine soul, it is not too compatible with the path of the body." ”

"Okay, then I'll go to the flesh body and Yuan Li."

Lin Yue nodded, and then snorted again: "If you choose the wrong one, I won't be able to spare you in the future, and I will have to strip you naked and hang you up and beat you." ”

Baili Fengzhi jumped on his forehead, automatically ignored the other party's vulgar and humiliating words, and just said: "Your Highness, please rest assured, this kind of basic common sense, the last general still understands." ”

"Then I'll try it now."

Lin Yue waved his sleeve robe and said, "Okay, you go out first." ”

"Your Highness, there is one more thing that needs to be reminded of you."

Baili Fengzhi said: "This basic method can absorb all the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi that you can perceive, but it is best for you to choose one or several of them, and the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of different attributes will also have different effects." ”

"For example, the body strengthened by the Water Vitality is stronger and more flexible, the body strengthened by the Earth Vitality is the strongest, and the body strengthened by the Golden Vitality is more lethal."

Baili Fengzhi said: "Including Yuan Li, it will also show different effects according to different attributes, and Yuan Li also has a certain strengthening effect on the body, and it is more important to choose the Yuan Qi that matches the attributes." ”

"Fit?"

Lin Yue was thoughtful, and then said a little impatiently: "Can you make it clear?" ”

"Although the last general doesn't know much about it, there was once a senior of the Xia Hong clan who said ......"

Baili Fengzhi said slowly: "The way of the ancient gods is more in line with the way of nature than any cultivation path, it seems to be just a simple absorption, but if you go the wrong way, you will definitely have a limited future." ”

Lin Yue sighed and said, "Is there anything else you want to explain?" ”

"And then there'......"

Baili Fengzhi said patiently: "Xia Hong's cultivation is different from other paths, especially the physical body and Yuan Force, different training methods will also have different improvements, exert greater potential, become faster, have greater strength, and stronger defense, it is possible, so Your Highness had better try to practice more every day." ”

"Okay." Lin Yue waved his hand, "Then let's start tomorrow, you can go." ”

"Yes, then the general will retire." Baili Fengzhi bowed, and then turned around and left.

After she left, Lin Yue sat thoughtfully on the couch.

After a long time, he finally had a certain idea in his heart and was ready to try it.

……

Early the next morning.

"Has Your Highness started practicing last night?"

Baili Fengzhi looked at Lin Yue, who was slightly depressed, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "You thought about it so quickly?" Don't think about it for a few days? ”

Although the two paths of walking the flesh body and the yuan force have been determined, it is still necessary to choose the yuan qi that matches the attributes.

But......

The types of vitality that everyone can perceive are also limited, there may only be one kind of less, and there may be three or five kinds of more, which is also a matter of talent, and it has nothing to do with bloodline, even if it is the prince of the Xia Hong clan.

Could it be that Xia Lie could only perceive one or two kinds of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi?

It can only perceive one or two kinds of vitality, so naturally there is no choice.

"At present, it should be the optimal solution."

Lin Yue said casually, glanced at Baili Fengzhi again, and frowned: "What kind of eyes are you?" Are you sympathizing with me? Do you want to be slapped by me again? ”

"Your Highness is too careful."

Bai Li Feng didn't admit it until he died, but just changed the topic: "His Royal Highness said that the best solution?" I wonder how His Highness chose it? ”

Lin Yue snorted and said, "Your Highness is such a genius, there is no mistake in choosing naturally, strengthening the physical body and simply using the vitality of the earth, so that the physical body is strong enough." ”

Baili Fengzhi bowed slightly, "The earth bears the sky, and the flesh after the strengthening of the earth's vitality is indeed the strongest, what about the yuan power?" How was His Highness chosen? ”

Lin Yue snorted and said: "The choice of Yuan Force is the most exquisite, I chose the three attributes of water, fire and wind, which just form three Yuan Forces." ”

"Water, fire, and wind?"

Baili Fengzhi was stunned, and couldn't help frowning slightly: "Your Highness, didn't I remind you at the end of last night?" The way of the ancient gods is more in line with the way of nature than any path of cultivation, if you take the wrong path, the future will be limited, and you are ...... water, fire, and wind."

What is the convergence point of the three attributes of water, fire and wind?

"Boil water."

Lin Yue said casually: "Isn't this still in line with the way of nature?" ”

"Boil water?" Baili Feng Zhi Dan Feng's eyes were a little stunned, "Does Your Highness want to imitate mortals to boil water?" But even ordinary warriors are not afraid of boiling water, only the upper limit is ......"

"You don't know much, and of course you don't understand the mysteries."

Lin Yue didn't bother to explain, but said: "And the water, fire, and yuan forces can also better temper the body, just like refining weapons or burning clay." ”

"This ...... Indeed it is. Baili Fengzhi nodded at this time.

But she still didn't understand, what is boiling water?

Lin Yue sighed in his heart.

Throughout the history of human energy development in the previous life, it was to boil water, even if it was nuclear energy, it was to boil water.

And isn't the essence of boiling water water, water, fire, and wind?

Yuan Li is just energy, as Yuan Li becomes more and more huge, the power brought by boiling water by water, fire and wind will become stronger and stronger, which is a good application in the early stage of the basic Yuan Qi.

It's a pity that he didn't perceive the heaven and earth vitality such as electromagnetism, otherwise he would have chosen the golden energy to strengthen his body, and then he would have a steam power generation.

"But ......"

Baili Fengzhi suddenly reacted and asked, "Did Your Highness choose these four types among the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi?" In this way, there are more than four kinds of heaven and earth vitality that His Highness perceives, right? ”

"More than a dozen." Lin Yue said casually.

"More than a dozen?"

Baili Fengzhi couldn't help but be stunned.

The person with the broadest talent she had ever seen in her life was the one who could perceive more than ten kinds of heaven and earth vitality.

Just last month.

Baili Fengzhi glanced at Lin Yue deeply, and arched his hand: "Your Highness is really talented. ”

Lin Yue sat down at the table and began to enjoy the breakfast prepared by Baili Fengzhi's entourage of the guards.

"By the way, Your Highness."

Baili Fengzhi suddenly said: "Many people have sent a message today, asking to see you, and they also gave a generous gift, do you want to meet?" ”

"Who?" Lin Yue asked lazily.

"The county guard of Qingdu and his sons, the captains of the city guards, and a few branches of the big family that originated in Liangzhou City."

Baili Fengzhi said: "I'm afraid these people are also thinking that when you are young, if you can help you, you may remember them in the future, and it can be regarded as a chance for them to turn over, and the last general will see that they have no bad intentions, and you also need cultivation resources now, so I didn't refuse." ”

"No matter how small a fly is, it's meat."

Lin Yue casually stuffed a piece of pastry into his mouth, "Then let's see." ”

……

In the early morning autumn sun, a luxurious and exquisite carriage went from the county guard mansion to the stargazing tower.

In the carriage, the Qingdu county guard and his three sons were sitting in a precarious position, some of them did not dare to move, for fear that there would be a few more wrinkles on the clothes that had finally been cleaned up neatly, and I am afraid it would be a bit rude.

"Dad, the person from the Xia Hong clan who awakened yesterday's bloodline is really the son of Xia Lie?" Xu Mingli couldn't help but ask.

"Eight achievements are him."

The Qingdu County Guard bowed slightly: "Otherwise, how could Baili Fengzhi, the great commander, deliberately run over from the Northwest Pass to find him?" And last night, the big movement of Baili Fengzhi's pro-guard army was obviously for Xia Lie. ”

He glanced at his son, who was sitting a little lazy, frowned slightly and shouted, "Sit down." ”

"Got it, Dad."

Xu Mingli immediately sat up straight, and asked, "Dad, I heard that I found Prince Xia Lie in Lin Yue's house last night?" ”

"That's true." Qingdu County guarded the head and said: "I don't know how Lin Yue did it, he actually hid and imprisoned that Xia Lie Gongzi for three months. ”

The eldest prince of the Xu family, who was sitting on the side, spoke: "I'm afraid it's impossible for an ordinary man to do this, right?" Just that Xia Lie's martial arts guard, then Lin Yue is difficult to solve, maybe there is the help of that Tu Dao chief? ”

"Yes, that's what my father thinks."

Qingdu County Shou said softly: "This is also a good opportunity for our Xu family to solve the trouble, that Tu Dao Chang is no threat to Baili Fengzhi, but if he is released, it will be a big disaster for our Xu family." ”

The eldest prince of the Xu family nodded and said: "Although revealing the true identity of Daoist Tu does make our Xu family take a risk, it is also worth it to be able to sell a favor to the commander of Baili." ”

"Dad, you don't need to worry too much."

Xu Mingli also said: "Young Master Xia Lie must hate Na Lin Yue to the core, and now that Na Lin Yue is dead, only Tu Dao Chang remains, he should not let it go." ”

"Don't leave anything to chance."

Qingdu County Shou shook his head and said: "When we see that Xia Lie Gongzi later, we must find an opportunity to mention this matter, so that Xia Lie Gongzi knows that we provided the clue of Tu Daochang, not only can we put that Tu Dao Chang to death, but may also be favored by Xia Lie Gongzi." ”

……

"Qingdu County Shou Xu Zhiren, I have seen the son of Xia Lie."

In the main hall of the Stargazing Building, the Qingdu County Guard knelt in front of Lin Yue with his three sons.

Although they don't know what the identity of this Xia Lie son is, whether it is the prince's heir or lower, his status is far beyond them, and he should bow down.

Moreover, with so many people present, they were blessed to be the first to bow down.

Lin Yue sat lazily on the main seat, while Baili Fengzhi stood behind him as a personal guard.

He looked at the Qingdu County Shou family, and suddenly asked, "What gift did you give?" ”

Qingdu County Shou was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect this Xia Lie Gongzi to ask so directly, it seems that his temperament is really as arrogant and unscrupulous as in the legend.

He immediately said: "I heard that the bloodline of Prince Xia Lie has awakened, and I think there must be a demand for Yuan Qi Beads for cultivation in the future, so I have prepared nine Yuan Qi Beads, and I hope you will accept it." ”

As soon as Qingdu County Shou said this, a low exclamation suddenly sounded around.

"Vitality Bead?"

Lin Yue looked at Baili Fengzhi and asked, "What is the value?" ”

"A vitality bead is about 30,000 gold, and it is priceless."

Baili Fengzhi knew Xia Lie's temperament, and immediately explained: "I didn't expect this Qingdu County guard to be so solid, even richer than those captains under me, it seems that he bought Yuan Qi Beads to store wealth." ”

Lin Yue raised his eyebrows slightly.

Gold can maintain its value, but it is certainly not as good as the priceless Yuan Qi Beads, and the price of the Yuan Qi Beads will only get higher and higher.

He smiled at the Qingdu County Guard and said, "I heard that the county guard's monthly salary is only more than a hundred taels of silver, and he can actually afford to give nine Yuan Qi Beads?" It seems that the position of the county guard is easy to make money. ”

The Qingdu County Shou didn't expect this Xia Lie Gongzi to speak so directly, and there was a faint sweat behind him, but he didn't dare to admit anything, just smiled reluctantly.

"Alright, let's go down."

Lin Yue waved his sleeve robe and said lightly: "Let the people behind come up." ”

"Wu Yuanping, the head of the Wu family in Liangzhou, brought his son to see Prince Xia Lie, and presented five vitality beads to Prince Xia Lie."

"Song Kaihong, the commander of Qingdu, has seen Prince Xia Lie, and presented a Xuantie Treasure Knife to Prince Xia Lie."

……

I saw one after another people from the local elite families in Qingdu, kneeling down in front of Lin Yue to offer gifts, and they were all smart enough to directly say the gifts they gave.

Of the seven families, five of them gave away vitality beads, but in addition to the Qingdu county guard, the most other families gave away five vitality beads.

This made Lin Yue realize that his previous cognition was a bit wrong.

In the past, he thought that the richest family in Qingdu was the Wu family, which opened shops all over Qingdu, but now it seems that it is probably the county guard of Qingdu.

"I have received all your wishes."

Lin Yue took a sip of tea and said casually: "I can see that you are all working hard." ”

He looked at the county guard of Qingdu again and said, "I am most satisfied with the gift of the county guard, so you might as well talk about the requirements." ”

Qingdu County Shou immediately bowed his hand and said: "Where is this Gongzi Xia Lie, I don't ask for anything in this gift, in fact, it is also to make amends, where are you embarrassed to ask for anything?" ”

"Reparations?" Lin Yue looked at him.

The Qingdu County Shou looked ashamed: "It's a shame to say that Prince Xia Lie had an accident in Qingdu, which is under the jurisdiction of Xia, but he has not discovered Lin Yue's despicable intentions for a long time, which is really a dereliction of duty." ”

The people of the other families couldn't help but secretly curse the sycophants.

That Lin Yue is a person who can't even catch Baili Fengzhi, and you still forcibly pretend to be derelict in your duties?

forcibly find a reason to give gifts, and rub people's favors.

"Young son Xia Lie, I also feel guilty below."

Xu Mingli also took the opportunity to speak: "I practiced in the Taoist Academy with that Lin Yue, but in the past three months, I haven't found out that he has such a vicious and despicable mind. ”

Baili Fengzhi was a little speechless when he listened, isn't this looking for death?

"Oh?"

Lin Yue looked at the county guard family, and then turned his head to look at Baili Fengzhi, "If I kill the Qingdu county guard family, will I be fine?" ”
