Chapter 6 Washing the muscles and forging the bones

Outside the gate, the sun is setting in the west, reflecting layers of tree shadows, and on the grass lies a young man in white linen, who has a burst of grass in the corner of his mouth, and is sleepy. Suddenly, the white linen young man's eyes opened, and he sat up directly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"My sister is waking up, hehe......"

This young man is Xiao Qingxuan's own brother, Xiao Qingyun.

Qiao Yuan put his hands behind his head, hummed a little song, and walked to the door of a small courtyard after a while.

The small courtyard is not large, surrounded by a fence made of bamboo chips, and there is a stone stove in the courtyard, and the smell of meat is wafting from the large pot on the stove.

He walked into the courtyard, rushed straight to the cauldron with the smell of meat, lifted the lid, and a burst of extremely rich fragrance came to his face, and his saliva dripped involuntarily down the corner of his mouth on the stove.

"Stinky boy, you haven't boiled it yet, your saliva has dripped into the pot. ”

With a creak, the wooden door of the middle house was pushed open, and a bald middle-aged man walked out of it, just in time to see Qiao Yuan's saliva dripping on the stove, and scolded with a smile.

Qiao Yuan heard the words of the bald middle-aged man, and quickly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve, his delicate face turned red all of a sudden, and he smiled.

"Uncle Tie, I have smelled the aroma of meat in your pot in Grandpa Xiao's house, you are not only profound, but also your cooking skills are a must, Xiao Yuan really admires and admires. ”

Tie Mo touched his shiny bald head, smiled, walked over and patted Qiao Yuan's shoulder.

"You kid just speaks, and it goes to my heart. Come, come with me into the house, let's have a drink, this broth will have to boil for a little longer. ”

Qiao Yuan smiled and followed Tie Mo into the room, looked back at the broth in the pot, and sniffed the overflowing aroma twice.

The room was small, with a table in the middle, and a charcoal fire on the ground, on which was leaning on the meat. Tie Mo came to the corner and brought a large jar of wine, and said with a simple smile.

"Xiaoyuan, you have to drink more of this wine today, with my specially refined broth, you can strengthen your body, wash your muscles and bones, and cure all diseases. Haha......"

Qiao Yuan watched the barbecue and swallowed spit, and when he heard Tie Mo's words, he replied casually.

"Uncle Tie, is this wine really so strong?"

Tie Mo immediately stopped laughing, poured two bowls of wine, and said with a serious expression.

"I used more than 20 kinds of rare animal bones, more than 10 kinds of rare herbs, and the secret recipe of my heirloom ancestors to mix together, and sealed it underground for 20 years, every drop is the essence, washing the muscles and forging bones is nothing, you can drink a bowl to know." ”

After hearing this, Qiao Yuan showed a look of disbelief on his face, picked up the big bowl and took a big sip directly, and immediately spit it out as soon as he drank it, revealing a bitter expression.

"Uncle Tie, what kind of wine is this, why does it smell fishy. ”

Tie Mo was amused by Qiao Yuan's scene.

"You kid, you really don't know how to enjoy, you wasted a big sip of such a good wine. If it weren't for the way you looked wronged today, I would have thought about making up for you, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to take it out and drink it. ”

Qiao Yuan glanced at his mouth and didn't say anything more.

The two of them drank and ate and chatted, and half an hour passed after you came and went.

"Bang ......"

There was a sudden sound outside, and Tie Mo got up and walked out of the door with a loud shout, and Qiao Yuan followed closely.

"Little thief, dare to steal my broth. ”

The two walked out the door one after the other. As far as the eye could see, a young man in white linen was lying on the ground next to the stove, the lid of the pot was lifted, the smell of meat came out, and a clay bowl was shattered to the ground. The young man's whole body was red, his mouth was foaming at the mouth, the whites of his eyes were turned outward, and his hands and feet were spasmed.

"Brother Qingyun, what's wrong with you? Uncle Tie, how can this broth be poisonous, why is his body so hot?"

Qiao Yuan rushed over, ready to help Xiao Qingyun up, but as soon as he touched his arm, he was burned and took his hand away.

"Don't worry, this broth is a great tonic, how can it be poisonous, he just drank too much and made up for it. Stealing thieves, making you suffer a little, and have a long memory. ”

Tie Mo laughed and scolded.

"Uncle Tie, help Brother Qingyun quickly. ”

Qiao Yuan said with an anxious look in his eyes.

"Haha...... You go to the house and fetch a bowl of beast bone wine for him to drink, and it will be fine in a while. ”

Tie Mo laughed and said with a wave of his hand

Qiao Yuan immediately ran to the house and took out a bowl of beast bone wine for Xiao Qingyun to drink, Xiao Qingyun took a sip and couldn't help but squirt out.

"Brother Qingyun, you bear with it first, you will be fine after drinking this bowl of wine. ”

Qiao Yuan slowly fed Xiao Qingyun to drink again, Xiao Qingyun looked bitter and regretted in his heart. After a while, Xiao Qingyun gradually returned to normal, and Qiao Yuan pulled him up and helped him into the room and sat on a chair.

"You thief boy, you come to steal food every day, now you have a bitter fruit, haha......"

Tie Mo laughed and sneered.

Xiao Qingyun fell silent with a bitter face.

Qiao Yuan sandwiched two pieces of barbecue meat and put them in front of Xiao Qingyun, and poured another bowl of beast bone wine and put it next to him. Xiao Qingyun ate the barbecue, but he didn't drink the bowl of wine anymore.

Tie Mo went out and brought in three bowls of boiled broth and put them on the table.

"Eating barbecue, drinking my animal bone wine, and this exclusive secret recipe Tonic soup will definitely make you happy like a fairy. ”

Tie Mo took a bowl of broth and said a word, and it was all gone.

When Xiao Qingyun saw the broth on the table, his face turned pale with fright, and he got up and ran without saying a word, and he disappeared after a while.

Qiao Yuan was frightened when he saw Xiao Qingyun's actions, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and the drunkenness in his eyes dissipated a lot, and he was just about to get up when he was held down by Tie Mo.

"That thief boy doesn't know the goods, he drank two bowls of soup from me at once, and he hasn't drunk this beast bone wine first, so it will naturally be like that, we can drink it with confidence, it's okay, you see, I'm not good. ”

Tie Mo put one hand on Qiao Yuan's shoulder and said with a smile.

Qiao Yuan saw that Tie Mo was indeed fine, and the fragrance of this broth was indeed attractive, so he couldn't help but be eager to try it.

"Fight!"

He took a soft sip, picked up the broth, and drank it all in one gulp.

Qiao Yuan drank a bowl and showed a look of unfinished business, took the bowl and went out to fill another bowl, and drank it slowly.

The moon has already hung high in the sky, and the stars are brilliant.

In the house, Qiao Yuan and Tie Mo were eating barbecue, drinking wine and soup. Tie Mo told some strange things outside Qingfeng Mountain from time to time, Qiao Yuan listened with great interest, his eyes were full of longing, and the night passed quietly.

At noon on the second day, the sun hung high in the sky, and the sunlight shone through the cracks and windows of the grinning doors and windows in the middle of the courtyard.

The house was in shambles, with bones thrown on the ground and overturned dishes and chopsticks.

Under the table lay a bald middle-aged man, this bald middle-aged man still had a bone in his mouth, one hand on the shiny head, and one hand on Qiao Yuan's head lying on his lap.

"Oops! It's so refreshing, I didn't expect you to be able to drink Xiaoyuan, and I drank Lao Tie to the ground. ”

The bald middle-aged man opened his eyes in a daze, touched his bald head, and saw himself and Qiao Yuan lying on the ground and sleeping all night, he smiled, and then pushed Qiao Yuan with his hand, but Qiao Yuan did not wake up.

"Alas, I forgot that the first time I drank my bone wine, I had to sleep for two days. ”

Tie Mo sighed and touched his bald head, muttered to himself and walked out of the back room.

There is a small bamboo house outside the old pine tree in Qingfeng Village, and at this time there is a young man in white linen clothes lying on the bed, his face is ruddy, his breathing is even, and he is sleeping heavily.

This person is Xiao Qingyun, Xiao Qingyun returned to the bamboo house to meditate and practice cross-legged after Xiao Qingyun ran out of Tie Mo's house last night. But he didn't cultivate for half an hour before he fell headlong into bed, and he still didn't wake up until noon the next day.

Qiao Yuan and Xiao Qingyun couldn't sleep for a long time because they drank beast bone wine, and this sleep was three days.

That night, Xiao Qingyun opened his eyes in a daze, pressed his head and prepared to get up from the bed. As soon as he moved, his face turned pale, cold sweat leaked out of his forehead, his facial features were distorted, and he scolded.

"Damn, I must have drunk that broth and it hurt me to death. ”

Xiao Qingyun immediately jumped up, covered his stomach and pushed open the door, and ran away in an instant.

There would be bursts of mournful wails from time to time in Qingfeng Village this night, but no one went to inspect them.

At dawn the next day, Xiao Qingyun pushed open Tie Mo's courtyard door with an ugly face, and saw Tie Mo boiling soup, and his mouth was nauseous.

"Lao Tie, what kind of soup did you give me last time, I pulled it all night last night, and my legs are still cramping. ”

Tie Mo laughed sarcastically when he heard Xiao Qingyun's words.

"Thief boy, you stole it yourself, not me. Also, have you slept stupidly for three days? Don't you know what has changed in yourself? Secretly drank my big tonic soup, didn't come to thank me, and blamed me for letting you pull all night...... Hahahaha......"

Xiao Qingyun heard Tie Mo's words, his face turned red all of a sudden, and then his eyes showed doubts, and he moved his hands and feet on the spot, his face showing joy.

"I've slept for three days and three nights, my body is indeed much lighter, and I feel more agile!"

Tie Mo said with a smile when he saw this scene.

"My animal bone wine and big tonic soup are not available to ordinary people, but drinking them can strengthen the body, wash muscles and bones, and cure all diseases, which are very precious. Ordinary people drink my wine and soup and sleep overnight, but people with extraordinary muscles and bones drink it, and the time for washing and forging bones will naturally be much longer, and it is common to sleep for a few days and nights. ”

Xiao Qingyun glanced at his mouth, quite disappreciative of this, and turned around and left directly.

Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and the third day was early in the morning.

Qiao Yuan opened his eyes in a daze, rubbed his eyes, and before he could fully wake up, he was caused by a sudden abdominal pain to jump up from the bed, and rushed out of the house without saying a word.

So, from sunrise to sunset, Qingfeng Village spent a whole day with a terrible wail, and it was not until the top of the moon that Qiao Yuan staggered out of the thatched house.

After Qiao Yuan came out, he walked towards Tie Mo's house with a bitter and aggrieved expression.

He walked for a while, but he felt that his body was much more relaxed, his legs and feet were much more agile, as if the excess impurities in his body had been expelled from the body, and the skeletal muscles in his body were more developed.

Tie Mo saw Qiao Yuan walk into the house, laughed, and walked out of the house with a plate of roast chicken and put it in front of Qiao Yuan.

Qiao Yuan's eyes lit up when he saw the roast chicken, so he started directly, and after a while, he finished eating the roast chicken, wiped the oil stains on the corner of his mouth, smashed his mouth, and burped with satisfaction.

"That's right...... Uncle Tie, how long have I been asleep? How do I feel that I have had a particularly long dream, in which I have become an immortal, traveling the world and omnipotent. I also saw a young man in silver armor wielding a golden gun, and when he shot it, it was a scene that destroyed the world. ”

Tie Mo said with a smile.

"You kid can really sleep, he slept for five days and five nights this night, and your Uncle Tie slept on the plank every day, and his back still hurts. You became an immortal in your dreams, and your Uncle Tie is about to become a waste, and if you sleep for two more days, you will have to use a cane when you go out hunting. ”

Qiao Yuan's face showed surprise, his face turned red, and he smiled.

"Uncle Tie, I'm sorry, I don't know about your wine, it's so strong, I've only drunk five bowls and slept for so long, I'm ashamed, ashamed!"

"You kid really don't know what to do, but five bowls! You think it's ordinary wine, and ordinary people drink five bowls either to make up for death or to kill them, so you kid has extraordinary muscles and bones to withstand such a strong medicine. ”

Tie Mo glanced at his mouth, looking like a god stick boasting about the magic medicine.

Qiao Yuan nodded with a look of conviction.

"Don't tell me, I'm feeling refreshed, my legs are nimble, my mind is clear, I'm powerful, I'm going to have to go out and give it a try. ”

Qiao Yuan rushed out of the door, picked up an axe and chopped firewood in the moonlight. Between the destruction and decay, a pile of firewood was all chopped.

He ran to the edge of the well again and began to carry water, a cup of tea, the two large water tanks were filled with water, but Qiao Yuan still felt that his body was endless, and he didn't feel tired at all.

"I can't sleep anyway, so I'll go down the mountain and walk around and come back. Uncle Tie, I'll leave first, and I'll come back to you another day to go hunting. ”

Qiao Yuan muttered to himself with excitement on his face, waved his hand towards Tie Mo and ran out of the courtyard, at a fast speed.

"Xiaoyuan, it's too late, don't go down the mountain and run around!"

Tie Mo admonished, but Qiao Yuan had already run away, and he could still hear it.
