Chapter 85: The Mystery of the Jade Pendant
The fire was burned behind the small earthen stove, and Xiao Tianming stir-fried and cooked, and soon, three dishes and one soup were served on the table. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The fragrant braised pork, bright in color, a fragrance wafted out, covering the whole room, as well as the Lingyun rice, a specialty of Lingyun Village, which is crispy and soft, elastic and non-sticky......
"Snorr" Xiaotu and Lei Ting soon ate happily.
Xiao Tianming has taken care of himself for six years, and he has long practiced first-hand cooking skills, although he is not top-notch, but the seasonings he bought are all top-notch in Shilong Town, and some wild boar fat is added, which is very fragrant.
Xiao Tubei is only eleven years old, but he often helps his father Atubo to do farm work, cooking, laundry is also proficient, he also joined the Iron Fist Gate to practice martial arts, can be regarded as a small expert.
With him controlling the heat, Xiao Tianming can be regarded as a super-level performance today.
"You eat slowly, the sound is ugly. "Lei Ting's appetite is not as good as Xiao Tianming and Xiaotu, and she is full after eating a small bowl.
Then he found that the sound of Xiaotu eating beside him was unpleasant, in fact, Lei Ting's eating appearance just now was not much better, to speak, today's meal was really delicious.
"Brother Tianming, I heard that you are going to Shilong Town!" Lei Ting was suddenly a little frustrated, her two little hands were blocked by the table, and she was twisting the corners of her clothes.
Tianming was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Lei Ting to hear the news.
He was eight years old and Ganyuan, so it stands to reason that he should have gone to Shangwutang in Shilong Town to register that year, but he was too young at the time to know about it, and he didn't register until he was ten years old after nearly two years.
Shangwutang is a school set up by the government for the successful martial artists of Ganyuan, Xiao Tianming did not sign up for school for four years after registering at the age of ten, Shangwutang has sent people to Lingyun Village to urge many times in order to prevent the loss of national talents.
After all, the number of successful people in the entire Yunshan City is not very large, and Shilong Town naturally attaches great importance to Xiao Tianming.
"Yes, I'm going to go to the Shangwu Hall there to practice martial arts. Xiao Tianming put down the dishes and chopsticks, and he finished eating.
Lei Ting suddenly lowered her head even more: "Then, Brother Tianming won't go back to Lingyun Village in the future?" There seemed to be a cry in her voice.
"Of course I'll be back, Lingyun Village is my home!" Xiao Tianming said with a smile.
Lei Ting suddenly raised her head, revealing a cute little face, with a hint of crystal in her eyes, and said in surprise: "Really?"
In her mind, Xiao Tianming is a person with great ability, the water flows to a low place, and people go to a high place, Shilong Town and Yunshan City are his stages, and the small Lingyun Village can't accommodate his golden carp.
No, even the entire Heavenly Continent is his stage, Lei Ting has a kind of blind confidence in Xiao Tianming, so she is especially afraid of his departure, and she is afraid that he will never return.
"Of course it's true. Xiao Tianming patted his chest and laughed, "I haven't become one of the four major households in Lingyun Village yet, how can I just go back like this." ”
The four major households or something, it's just a joke in childhood, and now Xiao Tianming has a more long-term goal, he hopes to become stronger, and continue to become stronger, not only to find his own background, but also to be able to protect the people around him in the future.
Xiao Tianming saw that Lei Ting's mood was very low, so he comforted her carefully, and soon she was happy again.
"Brother Tianming, I have a name. Xiaotu also finished his meal at this moment, wiped his mouth and said.
Xiao Tu is just a nickname, for some reason, Ah Tu Bo has never given Xiao Tu an official name, and now that Xiao Tu finally has an official name, Xiao Tianming was slightly taken aback.
"What a name, weird dead. Lei Ting on the side was a little disgusted, "Houtu, this name is so weird, how can anyone have the surname Hou?"
"I think it's better to call it Xiaotu. Lei Ting's eyebrows were crooked and she smiled happily, while Xiaotu next to her had a relatively sad face.
When he heard this name, he was excited for a long time, but who knew that after saying it to Lei Ting, she didn't have the slightest sense of appreciation, but despised it greatly.
"I think it's very good!" Xiao Tianming said with a smile.
Xiao Tu's face suddenly glowed when he heard this: "Really?"
"Nature is true. Xiao Tianming turned to Lei Ting, "Ah Ting, don't always bully Xiao Tu, no, it's time to call Hou Tu now, don't bully him anymore." ”
Lei Ting was a little reluctant, but she wanted to listen to Xiao Tianming's words.
"Okay, just call you Houtu. Lei Ting was reluctant to do it.
Houtu was immediately happy.
Xiao Tianming looked at Lei Ting and Houtu, and suddenly felt as if they were his younger brothers and sisters, and his heart was filled with a warm feeling.
The heavy rain was still falling outside, hitting the roof tiles, making a "knock knock" sound, and the rain was extremely heavy. Three oil lamps were lit in the house, and the light emitted from them illuminated the whole house, and it was not dark at all.
Inside and outside the house seem to be two worlds.
"It's just that I didn't expect Atubo to have a surname, this seems to be a very noble surname in ancient times!" Xiao Tianming remembered an ancient myth.
Legend has it that a long time ago, there were ten days in the sky, the earth was dry, and all things could not survive, and then there was a god surnamed Hou, who shot nine arrows in a row, shooting down nine suns in the sky, and only one sun was left to bring warmth to the earth, which allowed all things to multiply.
The torrential rain finally stopped, and the water continued to drop on the eaves, ticking and smashing on the stone steps, and there were already countless small craters on them.
Lei Ting has been sent back to the Lei family in the east of the village by Xiao Tianming, as for Houtu, his house is only a few dozen meters away from the courtyard, so let him go home by himself.
Xiao Tianming returned to his small courtyard and did not enter the house immediately, but sat down on the stone bench under the small tree in the courtyard, thinking about what had happened recently.
"The speed of my strength progress is still too slow, Ruomu and Sun Yu have both been promoted to the Fighting Stream Realm, but I am still staying in the Manjiang Realm. ”
"I heard that there are powerful martial artists as teachers in the Shangwu Hall, so I guess my strength can be greatly improved there. Xiao Tianming still has great expectations for Shangwutang.
"It's just that my golden true yuan is a secret, so I have to keep it carefully. ”
In fact, the real secret is his jade pendant, what he has seen and heard in the past four years and getting along with Wen Hao Wenyue, he finally realized that his jade pendant is a rare treasure even in the entire Heavenly Continent.
Xiao Tianming returned to the back room and sat cross-legged on the bed to cultivate.
In the dark space of Yuanzhi, a small river is flowing quietly, and at this moment, there is a figure wielding a sword on the surface of the river, practicing a set of exquisite swordsmanship.
It is the sword-breaking technique in the Black Mountain Cave!
The swordsmanship of breaking the army is the martial arts of the Manjiang Realm, and after Xiao Tianming and the murals of the Black Mountain Grottoes established an induction, he easily learned this set of swordsmanship.
As the figure continued to operate the six-style sword-breaking sword technique, the water surface of the small river suddenly rippled, and the water surface descended at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Xiao Tianming suddenly felt that a powerful True Yuan had been born in his body, rolling and flowing in his body.
"This ordinary true element has been refined so much at once, and there is no trace of discomfort in the body, but it feels full of strength. Xiao Tianming experienced the true yuan in his body, and both eyebrows were loosened.
Sometimes Xiao Tianming's heart will be shaken, or simply stop refining the golden true yuan, so that he no longer has to worry about the improvement of the realm, and he no longer has to worry about the physical body not being able to bear the true yuan.
"This jade pendant will definitely not harm me. Xiao Tianming finally strengthened his determination, and he had a special affection for this jade pendant.
After the water level of the small river dropped by one-tenth, Xiao Tianming stopped refining the true yuan.
And the rolling true yuan had already been sucked in by the jade pendant like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, and after a while, wisps of golden true yuan returned to the body.
Suddenly, Xiao Tianming had a feeling that his body was about to explode.
He slowly ran the True Yuan and quelled the rebellion of the Golden True Yuan.
The conversion rate of ordinary true yuan and golden true yuan is very low, one hundred copies of ordinary true yuan are absorbed by the jade pendant, and probably only one copy of golden true yuan flows out.
"Fortunately, there are relatively few golden true elements that have been transformed, otherwise I am afraid that I will explode on the spot. Xiao Tianming couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Driven by Xiao Tianming, the golden true yuan continued to circulate around the whole body, and soon the body gradually adapted.
"After a trip to Montenegro, I feel that the body's endurance for the golden true yuan has improved a lot, and it seems that not only do we have to use the golden true yuan to temper the body often, but also often go on adventures, which is also an excellent tempering for the spirit and body. Xiao Tianming said secretly.
In the space of Yuan, the figure on the water surface of the Yuan River once again used the sword technique of breaking the army, and as the horizontal plane fell, the true yuan was once again refined by wisps.
The true yuan was sucked into the jade pendant for the second time, and the golden true yuan was returned to the body again.
Repeatedly, the level of the Yuan River had bottomed out, and Xiao Tianming saw the riverbed, which was not soil, but a black unknown substance.
Xiao Tianming ended his senses, withdrew from the space of the yuan, and turned to look inward, observing the situation in his body.
The skin, flesh and blood, muscles and bones, and internal organs were suddenly vivid, and the golden true yuan and golden true qi were mixed in it, constantly moisturizing the body.
Now the golden true yuan has covered one-tenth of the body, and the golden true qi accounts for nine-tenths of the whole body.
"Alas, I don't know when the Golden True Yuan will be able to spread all over my body and achieve the Striving for Flow Realm, so that I can try to condense the tricks. "Xiao Tianming is a little greedy.
Although the Golden True Yuan has all kinds of restrictions, it is too strong, and he has already tasted the sweetness of the Golden True Yuan during this trip to Black Mountain.
It's just that......
At the end of the surface of the Yuan River, it is no longer possible to refine the ordinary true yuan again!
Not to mention being transformed into a golden true yuan by the jade pendant.
"The body can still withstand some golden true yuan ......" Xiao Tianming looked at the bottomed out Yuanhe, and smiled helplessly, "...... Wen Hao: Only when they compete for the current realm will they have worries about qualifications. ”
"I didn't expect that I would encounter this problem when I was in the Manjiang Realm. ”
