Chapter 021: Qingyun Meritorious Service Protects the Country

Heavenly Boots @ Chapter 21 Qingyun Meritorious Protector of the Country

Hua Lun went to Fang City to buy some rice noodles and meat, and by the way, he bought a carving knife, which is a special carving knife for jade carvers, calm and sharp.

After making some meat and eating, Hua Lun meditated and breathed his true qi, and then got up to practice the Yum Divine Fist. After touching for about an hour, after some movement and kicking, the true qi was exhausted. This time, he didn't insist any longer, but instead sat quietly in front of the stone table, and began to carve patterns on the wooden pier.

Strange to say, no matter how carefully Warren memorized the pattern, when he really reproduced it in his mind, there was always only the length of the ruler left, and the other parts could not be remembered. Putting the wooden pier on the stone bench, squatting on the side, copying according to the pattern of the stone table, the same is not good: always when looking at the next glance of the knife, the direction of the pattern has deviated and cannot be completed. Helplessly, Warren had no choice but to carve this paragraph on the wooden pier first, which didn't cost much. Then, Warren wanted to give up this paragraph and memorize the next paragraph, but found that no matter how he remembered, when he really carved with a knife, what was left in his mind was the original paragraph.

Warren was deflated on the spot, and finally knew that the pattern was not something anyone could engrave.

In the following days, Warren first went to see the two brothers, and saw that they were still learning to read and write on the side, cultivating and stabilizing their divine senses over and over again, and felt very down-to-earth. After returning, he sealed the door of the central hall and began to live like a pig: after eating a large amount of meat and vegetables every day, he sat quietly and breathed, and got up to practice boxing. When the true qi is exhausted, then meditate and pranayama, restore the true qi, and then get up and practice boxing. Until I was hungry, and then I started a new round, and stayed at home for several days without going out.

Life is like this, and it will be boring after all, even though it is the depths of winter, and every year at this time, I always live like this. However, this winter, Warren at least no longer has to hold Liu's left foot, worried that he will have no money left to survive the cold season.

On this day, Warren looked at the wooden pier in the corner, and was a little unwilling to pick it up again and try again. It's still the same as last time, after carving a section, there is no memory. This time, perhaps expectedly, Warren wasn't too discouraged. Stand up with the wooden pier and prepare to send it to the storage room for preservation, this is a childhood toy after all, even if it is useless, it cannot be discarded. While walking, I looked at the patterns on the wooden pier again, and suddenly found a detail: this time the memory and the pattern of the seal carving are actually about an inch longer than the last time! The pattern has no pause in the middle, and it has grown an inch, if it is not for the one-to-one comparison, it really can't be found.

Why is this? Is it the reason for the growth of cultivation? Is it the growth of divine consciousness or the growth of true qi? Warren couldn't know, but he understood that it could only be these two reasons. In the past few days of cultivation, the divine sense and true qi will increase, but it will not be too much, after all, it is now the tendon refining layer, and it is more about using the true qi to warm and nourish the tendons and veins. However, True Qi always has to increase a little bit in the process of consuming and restoring.

Hua Lun suddenly thought of a trick and began to frantically cultivate the Yum Divine Fist until his true qi dissipated to less than one percent. After a little steady breath, he began to memorize the pattern, and then picked up the wooden pier seal and carved it. After more than a dozen breaths, the pattern seal carving was completed, which was still an inch more than the earliest engraving. This shows that the amount of true qi has nothing to do with this.

Well, it's clear that the memory pattern needs to have a strong divine sense. How to improve your senses? Warren began to experiment with great painstaking experiments. Absorbing the Purple Spirit Crystal Bead or Amethyst can improve the divine sense, but this method can also quickly increase the cultivation of true qi and promote the liquefaction of true qi. Now he didn't dare to liquefy his true qi, once he caused his true qi to get out of control, his muscles and bones were still weak, and he couldn't withstand that kind of impact.

Since it is not possible to replenish with foreign substances, it can only be increased by consumption.

Divine perception is very similar to visual perception, and perception can be very detailed at close range, and the consumption is not obvious. Projecting far away, if there is no blocking, no refinement, and no obvious consumption. If you use your divine sense to project a distance of more than a kilometer, and you have to perceive details, such as the texture of porcelain, then it will be very tiring, and the speed of consumption will be determined according to the distance. If you inject your divine consciousness into the human body and the artifact of gold and stone, you will also be very tired when you perceive it inside, and the speed of consumption will be determined according to the depth.

Generally speaking, there are very few mid- and low-level martial cultivators who use their divine sense to analyze the appearance of a physical object from a distance for no reason, or perceive the internal structure of a huge physical object at close range. Of course, it is not easy to make efforts to let the divine consciousness continue to perceive after passing through the physical object, and that kind of consumption will be very terrifying. The ceiling pattern can extend the range of perception and avoid the huge consumption of the divine consciousness through the ceiling, which is really rare. Even so, Warren had to lie down to control the pattern of the ceiling, so as to avoid falling and injuring himself when he was unconscious due to excessive consumption of his divine sense.

The only way that Warren could think of at the moment was to consume it by controlling the pattern.

From then on, every time he meditated and practiced pranayama, Warren would lie on the floor, monitoring the entire dock. Soon, as his consciousness increased, he also discovered what the merchants who came and went on the docks were doing. Originally, Hua Lun was just curious, and never wanted to delve into it: Qingyun Town, a small town near the sea, except for the production of purple jade shells, there is really no reason for merchants to be so busy.

Especially now that the offshore waters have been frozen, small fishing boats nearby have been dragged to the top of the beach to remove seaweed and parasites, clean up the cracks in the slabs and re-apply the meadow oil. Alien ships stayed at least 10 kilometers above the surface of the sea and could not berth.

Even so, the docks are still full of people every day.

Carriages with more than two drivers come and go every day on the carriage and horse avenue, and the large carriages are covered by tarpaulins, and they are parked in the open space of the wharf, and the carriage attachés are uniformly dressed and clearly marked. Soon there were men in the same outfit in the market who came to pick them up, loaded or unloaded a large number of one-meter-square storage boxes, and pulled them into the market. Even, at night, there are occasional martial cultivators from both sides handing over the bag.

Every few days, in the evening, several four-horse carriages come. On such days, storage boxes are brought from the market during the day and sent to the dock stack. In the evening, after the carriage arrived, the two sides handed over and liquidated directly at the dock. That night, the storage boxes loaded by the carriage were unloaded, and then loaded into the storage boxes sent by the troika and transported away.

In the sea cave, Warren not only knows every corner of the dock, but also listens carefully, and can also listen to the clues of current events in their conversations. After a long time, Warren gradually came to know that this was an important dock for the Muhai Principality and the various major factions in the territory to transfer materials to the empire.

Although they are now frozen in the sea, they are used to handing over goods here. The two carriages were all business travelers from all over the Muhai Principality. Those who came here in four carriages were merchants from the Cangwu Empire. A little further, the rest of the empire can only wait for the spring thaw.

Warren can already tell from what they are wearing, where they come and go, what kind of family or sect they are, and what kind of background they are and what kind of resources they have. For example, Warren has been deliberately collecting information about Qingyunmen. All kinds of people who came to the dock naturally knew that Qingyun Town was the territory of Qingyunmen, and it was Qingyunmen that talked about it the most. Qingyunmen itself also often loads and unloads goods on the wharf, and there are naturally allusions to the door in the conversation, or the details of each new recruitment.

Hua Lun soon knew that the main hall of Qingyunmen was in the capital of the principality, and it was a sect born and raised in the Muhai Principality. According to legend, Zhao Wuling, the head of Qingyunmen, was the first generation of Mu Haigong to give his surname before his death. Qingyunmen is very powerful in the Muhai Principality, and it is also the protector sect of the Muhai Principality, and it has a conflict of interest with the four major families of Mu, Rong, Cheng, and Xi, so it is naturally incompatible.

There are no more than a thousand people in Qingyunmen, but there are branches in each county of the principality, and the fang market and mineral deposits are stationed in the disciples of the sect to guard. In fact, if you count the seed disciples recruited from the periphery, the guards hired by various institutions, and the internal and external miscellaneous servants, there are at least 5,000 people.

Zhao Wude, the current head of Qingyunmen, has reached the level of refining, and his true qi has been able to leave his body to become a soldier, infused with his fists, which are as hard as a hammer, and there are inches of light that shoot out, hurting people beyond measure. There are more than ten elders in the inner gate, and each cultivation has reached at least the refining level: the true qi protects the body into a gang, the iron weapon hits the skin, the skin is not injured, and the iron weapon is broken. There are one hundred and ten inner disciples, at least they are also cultivating in the skin refining period. The elders of the outer gate are also one hundred and ten people, and their cultivation is equivalent to that of the inner disciples. Most of them were former outer disciples, and their cultivation qualifications were insufficient, and when they reached the cultivation level, they were already over forty years old, and it was estimated that they would not be able to break through to high-level martial arts cultivation for the rest of their lives, so they were naturally not included in the inner sect, so they had to be elders. The cultivation of outer disciples must reach at least the level of refining tendons, and the age cannot exceed twenty.

If it weren't for the fact that Manager Liu had abandoned it like a shoe, which made Warren feel bad for Qingyunmen, after collecting so much information for more than a month, Warren would feel that Qingyunmen was still quite good: it has a status in the Muhai Principality, and it can be regarded as a very standardized, huge, and majestic sect. Maybe in a flash, he will bring his two brothers to join Qingyunmen. After all, Hua Lun is just eighteen this year, and the old fart and the sea rabbit are still one year younger than him, and the remaining year is enough to reach the tendon refining layer, which will make them more than enough to meet the entry conditions of the outer disciples of the Qingyun Sect.

Other sects, including the Baisheng Sect, also collected a lot of information, but it was not as detailed as the Qingyun Sect. Of course, these days, Warren has not yet met a gate faction from outside the Muhai Principality. Those four-wheeled carriages are all the sects or families of the Muhai Principality, and they are stationed in the transport vehicles of the Cangwu Empire.

After more than half a month, Warren's consciousness has grown greatly, and every time he engages the pattern, it is more than three times the original, and in another month, when the spring flowers bloom, Warren can just be able to completely engrave the pattern.

That night, Warren had just begun to monitor the docks, ready to continue exercising his sense and collecting information, when he suddenly saw Manager Liu appear on the docks, handing over the goods with a four-horse carriage. Warren was interested, and he didn't know why it was necessary for Manager Liu to appear at the dock in person to handle the handover.
