Chapter Forty-Eight: Practicing Diligently
Xiao Qian, whose realm had reached the late stage of the congenital stage, flew ten times faster than before, holding Ning Caichen's one hundred and ten catties in his arms, and rushed from the Netherworld Palace to Jinhua Mansion City, and it only took about an hour.
The city wall of Fucheng is tall, the city wall is wide and long, Ning Caichen doesn't know how to fly, and he can't even do light work, so he had to let Xiaoqian hold him, cross the city wall, and land directly in Ning's manor.
Without alarming the twelve maidservants, Ning Caichen and Xiao Qian quietly returned to the east bedroom, took out the nine ginseng plants they had collected before, and refined them into five spirit crystals.
Handing the spirit crystal to Ning Caichen, Xiao Qian said seriously: "Scholar, the meridian you want to open up next is the Zuyang Ming Stomach Sutra, which is the sixth of the twelve canons, and the difficulty is several times that of the fifth canon, just the acupoints that need to be cleared, and there are ninety acupoints on the left and right sides, which are the extreme of the nine heavens." ”
Ning Caichen pursed his lips: "Four Dragon and Tiger Pills, break the twenty acupoints of the Shaoyang Sanjiao Sutra in the right hand, and divide one to break five acupuncture points." The current ninety acupuncture points, does it mean that I can break through the realm with eighteen Dragon and Tiger Pills?"
Xiao Qian paused for a moment, shook her head and said: "Scholar, what you think is too simple, do you remember how much energy you used last time you broke through the realm? In addition to the silk and bamboo holes, ear and hip acupoints, and three acupoints of the ear gate that were opened up by the human emperor's pen, the rest of the acupoints add up to nine spirit crystals, let's count it as ten spirit crystals." However, the last time I broke through the realm, it was only the right half of the acupuncture point in the same canon, but after washing the essence and cutting the marrow, I also used a full five Dragon and Tiger Pills......"
Ning Caichen frowned slightly: "How many spirit crystals can a Dragon Tiger Pill be equivalent to?"
"Almost five pieces or so" Xiao Qian's eyes were solemn: "You don't have to be serious, just in terms of acupoints, the further back the ranking, the more difficult it is to get through, and the energy required will become thicker." The right hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Sutra is behind the left hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Sutra, so it took several times the previous strength to penetrate. And the Zuyang Ming Stomach Sutra is still behind the Sanjiao Sutra, and there are ninety acupuncture points, do you think the eighteen Dragon and Tiger Pills can successfully break through the realm?"
Ning Caichen sighed: "In other words, even if I loot the powerful Danku of the old demon of Black Mountain, I can't break two scriptures in a row?"
"That's not how the accounts are calculated. Xiao Qian smiled: "The value of the pills we looted is actually immeasurable, but only the Dragon Tiger Pill can directly break through the realm, and the rest of the pills are beneficial in the future." What's more, of the three hundred Dragon and Tiger Pills, Brother Yan took two hundred, I took eighty-one, and only nineteen were left for you. It's just nineteen Dragon and Tiger Pills, and it is not very realistic to want to break through the Shaoyang Sanjiao Sutra in the right hand after breaking through the three Jiao Sutras in the right hand. ”
"How many Dragon and Tiger Pills can be exchanged for a Holy Spirit Pill?" Ning Caichen nodded clearly.
"The Holy Spirit Pill is the best in the elixir, which can open up the spiritual wisdom, increase wisdom, and clear insight, which is much more precious than the Dragon and Tiger Pill. Xiao Qian thought for a while and said with a smile: "If it is placed in the auction house, it can be at least one to twenty." ”
Ning Caichen opened his mouth wide: "One to twenty, I still have twenty-two Holy Spirit Pills here, which is converted to ......"
"Four hundred and forty!" Xiao Qian's tone was firm.
Ning Caichen's eyes widened, and his gaze was glazed: "In addition to the Holy Spirit Pill, I also have the Shangqing Pill, the Rejuvenation Pill, the Heart Refining Pill, and the Pulp Cleansing Pill, all of which add up...... My Sanqing is above, how can the old demon of Montenegro be so rich?!"
"Everything about Jindan Ancestor is not something we can speculate on. Xiao Qian opened her mouth and said, "Actually, the value of the rest of those pills is also quite amazing, and the total number is equivalent to at least one thousand two hundred Dragon Tiger Pills. ”
"Twelve hundred. Ning Caichen felt that his bones were as if he was moaning silver, and his heart was numb.
"Now do you understand what kind of wealth the two of us have now? Seeing the theft of the treasury, the old demon of Montenegro is estimated to overturn the entire Black Wind Mountain. Xiao Qian said with a snicker.
Ning Caichen stabilized his mind: "With these pills, who else can I be afraid of? Wouldn't my future cultivation be smooth!"
"Don't have that kind of mind. Xiao Qian hurriedly said: "The effect of the Dragon Tiger Pill will decrease more and more with the improvement of cultivation. For example, before, from the middle to the late congenital stage, I used up the entire eighty-one Dragon and Tiger Pills in one go.
From the late congenital stage to the congenital Great Perfection, filling the upper dantian, the number of Dragon and Tiger Pills needed will increase exponentially, and at least two hundred will be needed. Next, refining the true qi and condensing the true element, the energy consumed is even more incalculable. Therefore, the pill can only be supplemented, and cannot be relied on too much. ”
"I suddenly remembered something. Ning Caichen took a deep breath: "Whether it is the Holy Spirit Pill or the Heart Refining Pill, Brother Yan has only taken what he can use at this stage, and he doesn't care about the value of the pill itself. If everything is reversed, and I only take what I can use, then wouldn't he have the hope of breaking through faster?"
"From Zhuji to Jindan, that is not the realm we can imagine, and this elixir only plays a helping role for him. Otherwise, Brother Yan would not have said that he would break through within three years. ”
Ning Caichen squeezed the spirit crystal in his hand and said in a deep voice: "This is a gift from Brother Yan, we have to practice harder and live up to his expectations." ”
"Cultivation should be relaxed. Xiao Qian grabbed his arm: "Today you have forcibly penetrated half of the pulse, although the damage has been repaired, but the mental consumption is too great, it is not appropriate to forcibly break the body." ”
Ning Caichen paused, let out a long breath, took the book "University Question" from the bedside, and handed it to Xiao Qian: "Then read the book." ”
At dawn, the golden crow dawns, the purple air comes from the east, and the bright sunshine pours on the earth.
In the Ning Mansion, in the main hall, Hua'er, the chief housekeeper of the house, brought a plate of delicacies to the dining table, and said to Ning Caichen, who was squatting at the door and cleaning his teeth with green salt: "Young master, this kind of thing like brushing your teeth should be done by the maidservant." ”
Ning Caichen washed the green salt in his mouth with clean water, shook his head and smiled: "If you let the maidservants come to brush your teeth, do you need them to eat for you?"
Hua'er chuckled speechlessly, knowing that her young master was a gentle gentleman, and she didn't feel a little timid in her heart: "The meal has been arranged, although I can't help you eat, but the slave can still feed you." ”
"Red sleeves add hands to deliver food, Ning Gongzi is really a blessing!" A burst of footsteps came suddenly, Ning Caichen raised his eyes, and saw a heroic Qingyu in a military uniform walking from outside the door, followed by two guards from Ning Mansion.
Ning Caichen stood up, handed the toothbrush jar to Hua'er, and looked at the two guards: "You are ......"
The two guards looked ashamed and knelt on the ground: "We are the guards invited by the big butler. ”
"I told them not to inform you, please don't punish them. Qingyu bit her lip and said.
Ning Caichen smiled gently: "In the Ning Mansion, there are only three people who can be rude, one is my father, the second is my mother, and the third is me. So Miss Qingyu, I'm sorry. ”
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at the flowers.
Hua'er looked at the two guards coldly: "Give you two choices, first, pack up your things and leave Ning Mansion." Second, each of them will receive 20 boards and remember today's lessons. ”
Thinking of the generous money given by the Ning Mansion, the two guards hurriedly kowtowed, and they both chose the second one.
"You're so boring, you don't give me any face. Seeing Hua'er leave with the two guards, Qingyu stomped her foot and said.
"Not everybody has to spoil you. Ning Caichen returned to the room and sat down at the dining table: "Have you had breakfast?
Qingyu shook Lisuo's long ponytail, snorted and walked into the door, and sat down opposite him: "Eat it, you think I'll be shy!"
Ning Caichen smiled, called a maidservant girl, and added a pair of chopsticks to her: "Say, come to me this time, what's the matter." ”
Qingyu bit her chopsticks: "I came to invite you to participate in the Jinhua Poetry Club, with Brother Ning's great talent, he will definitely be able to make a masterpiece at the Poetry Club." ”
Ning Caichen was anxious to improve his strength, where would he be in the mood to participate in any poetry meeting, and then politely refused: "I'm really sorry, I still have very important things to do today, and I don't have time to participate in the poetry meeting." ”
"Something very important, can you tell me what it is?" Qingyu said curiously.
"Practice. Ning Caichen disdained and deceived a girl, and said seriously: "I will leave Jinhua after eating in a while, and I will not come back in two or three days." ”
"Oh yes, my dad said you're from the rivers and lakes. Qingyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and her expression was excited: "Where is Brother Ning going to practice, and how is he going to practice?"
Ning Caichen said while eating: "Go to the grave mountain to hone your martial arts and soul, and improve your actual combat ability as quickly as possible." ”
"Why are you in such an urgent need to improve your strength?"
"Are you a hundred thousand whys? Where did you get so much curiosity?" Ning Caichen sped up his meal, and in just a few words, he was already half-full.
Qingyu choked on his unfriendly attitude and rolled her eyes: "Hey, to be honest, do you look at me unpleasantly?"
"Look, another question is raised. Ning Caichen stood up and put the bookcase he had prepared before: "I'll tell you very seriously, I don't mean anything against you, because there is no entanglement between the two of us." I don't want to answer your question because I'm too busy to sit here and explain anything to you. ”
Qingyu subconsciously wanted to ask why, but remembering his words, she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth: "Okay, I can not waste your time, but you have to take me to the tomb mountain with you." ”
"You're going to drag me down. Ning Caichen waved his hand at her: "I'll go first, when do you leave, please feel free." ”
"Ahh
Ning Caichen smiled and nodded, didn't look back to argue with her, and quickly walked out of the manor and rushed towards the city gate.
Time is really running out.
