Just as Cao Chao was about to go back to the house, he happened to meet the old village chief who was coming back from outside, and he wanted to take the initiative to come forward and say hello to him.

But he didn't expect that after the old village chief just glanced at Cao Chao, he suddenly became angry, and he scolded with a smile.

"You stinky boy, didn't I say it all? Remember to wash the pot, how do you explain it when you go in like this?

Hurry up and wash all the pots before coming in. ”

After finishing speaking, the old village chief walked into the wooden house calmly.

At this time, Cao Chao had already lost his previous grievances, and a thigh bone full of meat almost burst his little belly.

If he could, he would be willing to wash the pot every day from now on.

Therefore, after silently watching the old village chief enter the house, Cao Chao happily walked towards the sink, and he didn't know what kind of pot he was washing.

......

And when Cao Chao appeared in front of the children again, his whole body seemed to be fished out of the water, and his whole body was drenched.

The old village chief, who had also been waiting for Cao Chao to come back, couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw this, and he couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"What's the matter with you, are you hurt?"

Cao Chao smiled a little awkwardly before he opened his mouth to explain.

"No, no, it's just that it's too hot, and I want to wash my face to cool off, but I accidentally fell into the sink and managed to climb out. ”

The old village chief looked at Cao Chao's embarrassed appearance, naturally he didn't believe it, but he didn't ask any further, but shook his head helplessly, and then turned his head and said.

"In that case, you can go back to your place. ”

Cao Chao naturally agreed with a smile on his face.

"Yes, yes, yes, I'll be right back. ”

However, it may be because he was too full, or it may be for other reasons, when Cao Chao hurriedly ran to the big wooden bed, he accidentally fell down.

It's still the kind that is tilted up and forked.

At this moment, the children who were waiting impatiently immediately caused a burst of laughter.

"Ha, haha, haha. ”

"Hahaha, hahaha, hahaha. ”

And Cao Chao, who fell inexplicably, was extremely depressed in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only quickly get up from the ground.

Fortunately, the floors in this room are specially made of Huanghuali, so Cao Chao's fall was not serious, and he was not injured.

So Cao Chao quickly stood up in a gloomy manner, and then returned to the big wooden bed he had slept on before.

Of course, Cao Chao did not lie down directly, but carefully sat on the edge of the bed.

While listening to the old village chief in a low-key manner, he thought about what was going on with him, how could this feeling be a little like the feeling of being drunk before, and his hands and feet became inflexible?

But that's impossible!

Not to mention that Cao Chao is only ten years old now, even if he is a twenty-year-old adult, in the poor place of Black Mountain Village, he goes up to find wine to drink?

Perhaps, the old village chief may know, but Cao Chao can't go to him to ask for wine?

And Cao Chao wouldn't tell the old village chief that he had washed his hands and mouth and the oil stains on his face before.

It turned out that his clothes and pants were also stained with a lot of oil.

In addition, after eating the meat on his thigh bone, his whole body became hot.

So, Cao Chao didn't do anything, just jumped directly into the sink, and then cleaned his whole body.

Sure enough, it was much more refreshing, but before entering the house, he still screwed all his clothes and pants hard, and it was too late to enter the house.

Of course, it is impossible to wring out clothes and pants by hand, and it has the same effect as drying a dryer.

That's why there was the previous scene of dialogue, the little one stiffened and didn't say anything, and the old one stubbornly didn't ask, hey, life is so helpless.

And when he saw that Cao Chao had already sat down, the old village chief slowly talked about the history of Black Mountain Village.

"About a hundred years ago, our ancestor, Lord Cao Zu, led more than 300 people with the same surname, after experiencing thousands of difficulties and dangers, they came to the foot of Montenegro, and then exhausted all the resource reserves they carried, which established the Black Mountain Village that has been inherited for a hundred years. ”

The children were all unconscious and let out an exclamation of exclamation, but Cao Chao estimated that they themselves didn't know what they were marveling at, right?

It's just simple, I think Master Cao Zu is very powerful!

And the old village chief has already told the history of Black Mountain Village countless times, so he was not affected by everyone's reaction at all, and still said calmly.

"Now I'll tell you, everyone, a few precautions after practicing martial arts.

First of all, the villagers of our Black Mountain Village are strictly forbidden to fight privately, if there is any contradiction, you can go to the ring for a life-and-death duel, no result, life and death are at your own risk, but the murderer will be expelled from the village forever, and will never be allowed to come back in the future, otherwise there will be no forgiveness.

Secondly, all the martial arts belong to the secrets of our Black Mountain Village, so the martial arts that each of you has learned are strictly forbidden to teach each other privately, even your parents and brothers are not allowed to teach them.

And the last point is that you only have one year, and after one year, no matter what the effect of learning martial arts is, you must leave here, so please cherish this best time in your life!

Of course, after a year, you will all join the various labor groups in the village.

As for what type of labor group it is, you have to find out for yourself, and each labor group has its own recruitment criteria.

However, what I want to say here is that there is only one recruitment standard for the hunter group, regardless of gender, regardless of age, all people who are mountain collapse mirror warriors, or people with higher cultivation, are eligible to join the hunter group. ”

The children let out an exclamation again, although the children still didn't understand the words of the village chief, but the treatment of the hunter group has always been the best, so it has always been the dream of the whole village.

And the parents of some children have emphasized to them the benefits of the hunter group, so after knowing the conditions for joining the hunter group, no matter who understands or doesn't, they all nodded obediently.

And the old village chief didn't mean to pause, so he continued.

"Well, since I've talked about this, then I'll first talk about the martial artists in our village, there are a total of nine realms, and so far, the strongest person in our village is a martial artist who has already spied on the ninth realm.

We call the people of the Ninth Realm the martial artists of the Overlord Realm, which means that the power is infinite, and they can easily shake the heavens and the earth, and they are unrivaled in the world.

Under the overlord realm, they are the marshal realm, the general realm, the lieutenant realm, the warrior realm, the sharp pawn realm, the mountain collapse realm, the treading realm, and the transcendence realm.

As for you, your goal now is to achieve as much detachment as possible within a year.

If someone has reached the realm of transcendence, then in the next seven years, you can all go to the martial arts arena and learn higher-level martial arts. ”

At this time, a little girl who looked like a sweet girl asked weakly.

"Village Elder, didn't you say that you need a martial artist with the cultivation of the Collapse Mountain Realm to be able to join the hunter group?"

The old village chief nodded as a matter of course, and then he said slowly.

"Naturally, this is the case, but don't think that cultivation is easy, the transcendence realm is a threshold, one-third of our people in the Black Mountain Village have been trapped in the transcendent realm all their lives, and it is difficult for them to grow in their lives.

As for the Collapse Mountain Realm, it is a realm that needs to be tempered hard to achieve.

At present, there are only seventeen people in the hunter team who are cultivating in the Collapsed Mountain Realm, and their average age is about twenty-eight years old, so if you want to join the hunter team, you have to work hard to practice martial arts!"

After finishing speaking, the old village chief suddenly tilted his head slightly at a 45-degree angle, and his right hand and right foot also took a step forward, and then put on a particularly classic and exaggerated posture.

"Come on, boys, struggle, boys, you are the hope of the whole village!"

Although they were frightened by the old village chief's manipulation, the children cared about this, they just applauded loudly because of the old village chief's exaggerated posture.

Obviously, from tonight onwards, the old village chief will become the idol of these bear children.

As a result, the bear children began to yell again, and the noise was even more exaggerated than when they were eating meat just now.

And Cao Chao couldn't help but wonder if he had come to the wrong place, but when he saw the other children, all of them with innocent faces, he felt that he was thinking too much.

In this, in fact, there is still one point that is not said, the reason why the old village chief has been able to serve as the village chief for decades, but he has always been as stable as Mount Tai?

The main reason for this is that because the old village chief has always been the leader of the hunter group, and he has the strongest force in the entire Black Mountain Village, naturally no one will be impatient, and suddenly he wants to change the village chief to play, so the position of the village chief is naturally very stable.

Of course, if the old village chief is also an earthling, then he will definitely know, this is called holding a gun in one hand and holding the power of the village in the other.

After a while, the old village chief slowly returned to normal, and then he waved his hand to signal the children to be quiet, but a group of bear children, is it so easy to coax?

As a result, the old village chief spent a long time working hard, and the bear children slowly regained their calmness.

Then the old village chief, this continued.

"From now on, you will officially become my disciples, so in the future, you will not call me the village chief, just call me Master!

But before I teach you martial arts, I'll have to give you an official name, because you're going to have to call each other by name from now on, do you understand?"

Although most of the children didn't really understand, everyone still nodded stupidly in response.

"Understood. ”

"Understood. ”

"Understood. ”

The old village chief thought for a while, and then said slowly.

"Everyone knows that we all serve the same ancestor in Black Mountain Village, and his name is Cao Zu, so you will all have the surname "Cao" in the future.

And now it happens to be the one hundred and nineteenth year of the establishment of Heishan Village, so this year is the year of the Lunar New Year, and now it is summer, so the first name is "Cao Yanxia"!"

Then, the old village chief looked at the children who were full of doubts, and pointed to the thinnest boy with his hand.

"Boy, your future name will be called "Cao Yanxia", do you know?"

The boy known as Cao Yanxia was confused, he didn't understand it at all, so he asked with a puzzled face.

"Old village chief, but I have a name, my father and mother call me Xiaoqing'er?"

Seeing this, the other children also said their names.

What "dog eggs", "rice worms", "small fish", "small grass", "stick hammer", "buns", "little water", "little mountain", this is really varied, what kind of names are available.

Cao Chao, who was listening to it, was stunned, and he couldn't help but think: No wonder the old village chief wants to give everyone a new name, and there is no serious name here at all!

The old village chief smiled and said nothing, because he had already experienced such a situation dozens of times, so after calming the children's emotions, he slowly explained.

"I know that your parents have given you names, and you can use them in the future, but those who study martial arts with me must use the names I gave you, or get out of me, do you understand?"

Although the children still can't understand it, they have told them because of the authority of the old village chief, and when they participated in the sacred ceremony, their parents told them that they must listen to the old village chief from now on, or they will use the family method to serve when they return home, so they have to nod silently and agree.

Then the old village chief began to choose names for the children.

"In the future, you will be called, Cao Yanqiu!"

"Well, you, Cao Yandong!"

"Cao Yanchun!"

"Cao Yanhuo!"

"Cao Yanshui!"

"Cao Yantu!"

"Cao Yanmu!"

"Cao Yanjin!"

.......

Soon after the circle of people came down, it was Cao Chao's turn.

But at this time, the old village chief seemed to be stuck, and he just couldn't think of a new name after a long time.

The other children all stood aside and watched obediently, but the more they waited, the more impatient they became, after all, it was a waste of everyone's time!

So, Cao Chao really couldn't stand it, he couldn't help but say.

"Grandpa, otherwise, I'll call it "Cao Yanchao"! What do you think?"

As soon as the old village chief heard the word grandfather, his eyes immediately lit up, and then he agreed in a daze.

"Cao Yanchao, what a good name, you will call it this name in the future!"

Others don't say it, Cao Chao is naturally the most proud person, although there is an extra word Yan on the name, but Cao Chao feels that the two names have not changed at all, so he thinks that there is one more trumpet!

Cao Chao has done this kind of thing many times before, and when he was playing games, he also gave me the name of Cao Cao.

But it's a pity that it's always preemptively registered.

So, as soon as Cao Chao's little brain turned, he gave himself a new name, called Cao Mouchao, Cao Chao, anyway, although the name is different, he is still the same him.

This is the same as what the old village chief said, he is called Cao Chao on the earth, and here he is called Cao Yanchao.

After choosing the name, the old village chief glanced at the children again, and soon he found that most of the children were sweating profusely, so he nodded with satisfaction, and then said.

"Everyone should feel it now, in your stomachs, as if a flame is burning, isn't it?"

So, including Cao Chao, oh, no, now it's Cao Yanchao, they all nodded in response.

"yes, all of a sudden, it's so hot?"

The old village chief smiled smugly, and then he continued.

"It feels like a fire, that's right, what you just ate and drank is not an ordinary thing, it is the unique medicinal food of our Black Mountain Village.

This medicinal diet, usually the people in the village, but they are reluctant to eat it, just this pot of ingredients, but with the strength of the whole village, it took a whole year, and then after 7749 days of boiling, this is to get such a pot of medicinal food. ”

As a result, these words suddenly caused a burst of surprise among the children?

"Really?"

"So expensive?"

"If I had known, I would have kept a little and brought it home for my father and mother to taste. ”

"I don't know, when is the next time you drink medicinal food?"

......

Seeing that the fire was almost over, the old village chief, who had always been kind and friendly, suddenly made a straight face, and then he said with a serious face.

"Sit down for me now, don't waste the expectations of the whole village. ”

At this moment, the group of bear children were frightened, and everyone immediately climbed onto the big wooden bed and quickly sat down cross-legged.

Cao Yan is supernatural is no exception, at this time, he didn't care that the clothes on and off his body were still wet, so he went to bed and sat down.

After seeing that everyone was seated, the old village chief said slowly.

"Now what I am teaching you is the unique breathing method of our Black Mountain Village, you don't need to be too reluctant, you just need to do what you can, and now you will do as I say. ”

"First of all!"

"Whew!"

"And then suck!"

"Suck!"

"Come again, whew!"

"Go on, suck!"

......

At the beginning, Cao Yanchao didn't care, he just obediently followed the rhythm of the old village chief, breathing in and out, but after ten breaths, he found that something was different.

Originally, he just felt as if there was a flame burning in his stomach, but as he continued to breathe, this flame became more and more real, and it continued to grow bigger.

Soon after, it changed into a large ball of flames, and it also began to wander in Cao Yanchao's body, constantly wandering, and the whole body seemed to be burning, and in this breath, the flames had burned all over his body.

At this moment, Cao Yanchao was immediately frightened, but just when he wanted to stop, he was surprised to find that the flames all over his body had magically disappeared?

So when Cao Yanchao continued to breathe and breathe according to the rhythm of the old village chief again, the fire in his stomach reappeared.

However, this time he chose to continue to persevere, and let the flames completely burn all over his body.

Persisted until, he couldn't bear it anymore, his breathing became chaotic unconsciously, and the feeling of burning his body stopped.

And this time, Cao Yanchao did not immediately devote himself to cultivation, but opened his eyes, and then he found that the situation of the children around him was not quite the same, and most of the children's bodies were trembling wildly.

But after a certain point, they will naturally stop and start again.

And there are a small number of children, who seem to have no sense of the flame at all, and they all sit bored, and all of them sit crookedly.

Among the thirteen people, there were only two children, and the two of them had been enduring the torment in their bodies, even though their whole bodies were trembling violently, but they never gave up, and they persevered.

So Cao Yanchao seemed to have found the direction, but he turned his gaze to the old village chief, and found that the old village chief had already sat down on the floor, and he was still shouting with a breath.

The old village chief's body was also trembling, but he didn't choose to start over.

Although I don't quite understand what the principle is, Cao Yanchao already knows it, maybe only by sticking to it is the most correct thing.

So Cao Yanchao closed his eyes again, this time he insisted, just let the flame in his stomach continue to burn his body, but he never gave up.

And at the beginning, Cao Yanchao would still feel that the flames were very hot and unbearable, making him unbearable.

However, as time passed, Cao Yanchao discovered that although his body was in great pain, he actually did not really burn because of this, obviously the intensity of this flame was not enough to burn him to death.

It's just that people will have the illusion that these flames will burn themselves, but as long as they grit their teeth and persevere, they will benefit a lot.

And with the change of time little by little, Cao Yanchao found that his endurance was still increasing.

It's like when the tide rises, once the sea rises to the limit.

The water around you will go down very quickly, but if you keep going.

The next time the sea hits, it will hit a new height, although it is only a little bit of a lift, but it is gratifying enough.

Another point is that the flame in the belly, although on the surface, it seems to be extremely prosperous and can continue to grow, but this growth is actually limited.

When the flame grows to a certain level, the intensity of the flame in the stomach will slowly begin to weaken little by little.

This made Cao Yanchao feel very frightened, because he had fallen in love with this wonderful feeling, and while insisting on letting the flame continue to burn, he was quickly thinking about how to extend the life of this flame.

However, Cao Yanchao quickly gave up, because he had already thought that the flame in his stomach should be the seasoned wild boar meat he ate before.

Once all the wild boar in Cao Yanchao's stomach has been digested, this wonderful feeling will disappear.

So, instead of thinking about the things that can't be done at all, it's better to think about how to maximize the effect of this flame.

And after several tests, Cao Yanchao found that as long as he held his breath for a long time, the effect of the flame would be better.

Of course, this kind of persistence does not mean that you have to hold your breath until you die, but when you are on the ninth breath, you have to start again, because if you continue to persevere, although it is difficult, it is not impossible, but if you continue to persevere, it will have no effect.

So Cao Yanchao began to slowly adjust his breathing rhythm, first exhaling all the waste air in his lungs, then taking a long breath, and then insisting on holding his breath for a long time.

waited until the old village chief shouted the tenth breath, and he immediately exhaled exhaust gas.

And when the old village chief shouted again, he took another long breath, and then began to continue to hold his breath.

Sure enough, the effect this time was better than the previous one.

So, first exhale the exhaust gas, then take a deep breath, and finally continue to hold your breath.

This became Cao Yanchao's unique breathing method, but because there was no clock, he could only calculate the time according to the rhythm of the old village chief.

And just as Cao Yanchao was trying to adjust his breath, time passed little by little.

Slowly, the flame in Cao Yanchao's stomach finally went out after countless tides rising and falling.

Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, Cao Yanchao knew that this was already the limit, and it was useless for him to be reluctant.

Therefore, Cao Yanchao had no choice but to open his eyes, but he found that the several big beds around him were already empty?

And, it's already now, the next day's dawn?

Is it like this for a night?

Sure enough, it's been countless months of practice!

And at this moment, the kind face of the old village chief appeared in front of him for the first time soon after Cao Yanchao woke up, but the old village chief did not speak immediately.

Instead, he looked at Cao Yanchao with a smile on his face, as if he was tasting some peerless treasure.

In the end, Cao Yanchao, who was a little panicked by the old village chief, couldn't support it anymore, and he asked with a puzzled face.

"Grandpa, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong with me?"

Unexpectedly, the old village chief shook his head and said nothing, but he still waved his hand and asked Cao Yanchao to get down from the big bed first and walk around.

Cao Yan supernaturally would not refuse the old village chief's meaning, but when he was about to get out of bed, he suddenly felt that his feet were weak, and the whole person rushed forward, almost falling down again.

Fortunately, the old village chief who was standing on the side stepped in time to help Cao Yanchao.

"Take your time, it's a real surprise, even I didn't expect that your medicine would be so effective, it's been three days and three nights.

This is the highest record in the history of our Black Mountain Village, and even when I practiced for the first time, I only lasted two days and two nights to complete the foundation building.

Hey, it's a pity, how can such a good seedling like you be born in our Black Mountain Village!"

This time, Cao Yanchao didn't speak, but his little belly protested first.

"Gollum, Gollum, Gollum!"

The old village was slightly stunned, and then he laughed.

"Young man, what a blessing!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, Cao Yanchao asked a ghostly question.

"Grandpa, do you still have meat at home?"
