Chapter 5 [Ants]
April 15, the second day after the little man. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Three taels of safflower, one or four coins of zombie silkworms, one or two or five coins of Sichuan grass and Wu, two taels of frankincense, and two coins of myrrh......" In front of the counter of Sun Ji Huimintang Pharmacy, Xu Xiuxiu bought medicinal materials according to Jiang Bai's instructions. Since Jiang Bai gave Xiuxiu the secret book of "Luoying's Thirteen Swords", for half a month, the little girl and Jiang Bai went to the deserted temple to practice every day, and as the weather became hotter, Xiuxiu's face became darker and darker.
The two elementary school apprentices at the pharmacy didn't let Xiuxiu wait for a long time, and after a while, they wrapped more than a dozen herbs and handed them over. Xiuxiu used the manuscript fee she had just paid for Jiang Bailing, and walked out of the pharmacy with a string of medicine bags.
In the past half a month, Jiang Bai has written the finale of "The First Knife in Saibei" five times according to the requirements of the boss of Linlang Bookstore, and added two additional character biographies, which is in exchange for the opportunity to write a new novel. However, during this time, Jiang Bai insisted on cultivating the "Gengjin Divine Finger" every day, that is, poking the tree, and the index finger of his right hand was destroyed indecently, which greatly affected the speed of writing......
Master Baimei, who learned about this, greatly despised Jiang Bai, who claimed to have written a book for ten years and never stopped updating it, and he didn't know if it was true or not.
"This time, I bought enough herbs for ten days, and I don't have to come to the pharmacy often!" Xiuxiu was in a good mood, jumping along the bank of the Cangshui River that passed through the small city, jumping and jumping out of the city.
The deserted temple where Jiang Bai pokes the tree every day is located six or seven miles southeast of Lincang City, although it is dilapidated and barren, it is not far away. After walking for a while, Xiuxiu heard Zhai Xiaopang's constant sound of "ho" and "ha" from a distance.
Bypassing the ruins of the broken wall, Xiuxiu's big eyes immediately appeared in the "bear posture" of a little fat man waving a branch, rolled his eyes, Xiuxiu said angrily: "Zhai Xiaopang, this guy is not reliable at all! At the beginning, I yelled that I wanted to learn the most life-saving martial arts, but now I have the "Iron Arhat Gong" that Xiaobai finally bought, but I thought it was too painful to hit the tree, so I came to practice "Luoying Thirteen Swords" with me. Please, how can a fat man practice the British swordsmanship...... Hmph, I think he learned martial arts on a whim, and after a while, maybe he won't even want to practice swordsmanship!"
Xiuxiu glared at the little fat who was babbling and practicing swords, and turned to walk towards Jiang Bai at the door of the main hall, Jiang Bai was squatting on the ground, and a simple stove was built in front of him, and a copper pot with a slight gap was set up on it.
The fire under the stove was extinguished, but there was a slight heat coming out of the copper pot, and the smell of medicine could be heard from a distance.
Jiang Bai turned his head and saw Xiuxiu, raised his right hand in the copper pot and waved it, pressed it back again, and said with a smile: "Hard work Xiuxiu! I boiled the dregs that I fried yesterday again, and I think there will be some medicinal effects." Let's use the new medicine tomorrow!"
"Okay!" Xiuxiu nodded, and put a string of medicine bags in the corner where the three of them specially hid things, she knew that it was not convenient for Jiang Bai to write after cultivating the Gengjin Divine Finger, and there would be no manuscript fee if there was no new book, so it was naturally good to be able to save a little. Xiaobai's Baimei master, although he looks crazy, the exercises taught to him are not perfunctory, the fingering chapter of "Gengjin Divine Finger" details several auxiliary methods with "poking the tree", those herbs are bought according to the secret recipe in the book, after poking the tree 10,000 times a day, Jiang Bai has to soak his fingers with fried herbs, and after half a month, the first stage of Gengjin Divine Finger has begun to bear fruit.
Xiuxiu hid the medicine bag, found the branch that Jiang Bai had cut for herself into the shape of a sword in the main hall, and walked to the courtyard to practice.
is also "Luoying Thirteen Swords", Xiuxiu casts it, and there is a world of difference between it and Zhai Xiaopang who is waving around, although it is just a move without strength, although there are still many incoherent and unfamiliar places, but it is rare to have a little "martial arts" meaning!
For half a month, Xiuxiu and Jiang Bai did not slack off, and conscientiously completed every day in accordance with the requirements of the exercise cheats!
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the courtyard through the dilapidated ruins, shining on Xiuxiu's upper body and face.
Xiuxiu was shaken by the sunset, moved a few steps to the right, and was about to continue to practice swordsmanship, when suddenly her heart moved, and she raised her head, only to see Jiang Bai looking at herself blankly not far away, and found that she had looked over, and hurriedly turned her head to look elsewhere. Xiuxiu thought it was funny, and pretended to be angry: "Hey, hey, Xiaobai actually stared at the girl's face, it must have been learned from the white eyebrows who wrote the forbidden book!
"Huh, what are you talking about......" Chubby was having fun playing with his sword, and he didn't notice the situation here.
"Okay, you continue to play yours!" Xiuxiu gave an order to Xiaopang, walked to Jiang Bai's side, squatted down across the stove, looked at Jiang Bai with a smile on his face, and said with a wink, "Xiaobai, do you think I have become white and grown a little taller?"
Jiang Bai scratched his head: "No, it's still so dark, so short......"
"Say, how do you want to die!" suddenly became murderous in the deserted temple.
Jiang Bai was sweating profusely, and said, "But Xiuxiu, you are ...... thinner than before."
"Spare your life!"
The little girl immediately turned her anger into joy, and ran away carefully.
......
Late at night.
There are thousands of lights in Lincang City.
The dim moonlight stingily scattered in the courtyard of the deserted temple, and in the breeze, the dense branches of the ancient trees swayed gently.
Suddenly, a pitch-black figure broke through the silence and walked through the ruined walls to the center of the deserted temple courtyard.
"Residual medicinal scent?"
Under the black cloak, a hoarse man's voice came out with a slight surprise: "Could it be that there are seniors hiding here?" No, Lincang City is not the stronghold of my Holy Sect, and there are no disciples stationed here or performing tasks here......
Taking advantage of the faint moonlight, the man in black cautiously probed in the deserted temple, and first found the simple stove built by Jiang Bai: "It is true that someone has fried herbs here, but I don't know if it is a pedestrian passing by by by chance, or a group of damned beggar disciples!"
Soon, the man in black found a wooden sword, an unopened package of herbs, and a book of martial arts secrets!
The man in black was overjoyed at first, and then saw the big characters "Iron Arhat Gong" on the cover of the secret book, his face suddenly darkened, and he pouted with disdain, and threw it aside: "I thought that the beggar disciples occupied the ruins of this holy temple, and then things would become very tricky, but this Iron Arhat Gong ...... Hehe, the beggars haven't been ashamed enough to practice this kind of exercises! It seems that he is an ant who has no sect and has just learned martial arts!"
This kind of thing is only an exercise for the introduction of the acquired one-yuan realm, and it is also adapted from the Shaolin ordinary hard skill "Iron Cloth Shirt...... To put it bluntly, it's a weakened iron cloth shirt!
"It seems that these herbs are specially designed to assist in the practice of Iron Arhat Gong. The man in black lifted the medicine bag and sniffed it lightly with his nose, and he roughly distinguished the medicinal materials such as Sichuan grass black, zombie silkworm, safflower, etc., which were obviously some products that invigorated blood and dispelled blood stasis, which verified his guess just now.
"This trip to Lincang, the task is extremely important, and there is no room for mistakes......" The man in black put all the medicine bags and other things back in their original places, and said in a hoarse voice, "The ruins of the holy temple are not far from Lincang City, and the people who come here to practice are likely to live in the city, if I rashly get rid of them, I am afraid that the people of Lincang City will come here to explore, if that is the case, the plan will become difficult." But if you don't make a move, let this person come here often, it will inevitably be discovered in secret......"
Suddenly, the man in black burst out laughing.
"Hehehe, after many years of retreat, my brain is a little weak! Why do I have to do it myself? Deal with this weak ant...... Just find a few bugs that are bigger than it!"
