Chapter 19: Effects
Back in the medicine garden, Ding Qi rethought the matter of the true qi movement.
Before going down the mountain, he actually had some thoughts when he thought back to that feeling of being really angry.
At the beginning, Ding Qi suspected that this kind of true qi restlessness was because in the past few days, the true qi in his body had increased, and finally his ability to sense anchovy grass had an improved external manifestation.
But Tinzi soon dismissed the idea.
His ability to sense anchovies has not changed for a long time. During this time, he practiced innate skills. The amount of true qi in the body has indeed increased a little. However, due to the fact that the cultivation time was too short after all, compared to the total amount of true qi in the body before, it was not much.
Ding Qi instinctively felt that with this level of growth, it was far from being able to make such a significant improvement in his ability to sense anchovy grass.
Moreover, Ding Qi had deduced before that he was able to quickly discover the anchovy grass, which was very likely to be related to the true qi that Lao Zhang Toudu gave him.
If this inference is really correct, then that is to say, the abnormality he showed when searching for the phoenix tail grass was only related to the true qi that he had refined, and it was not much related to the amount of true qi he cultivated in the future.
If this is the case, no matter how much True Qi he cultivates in his body, it will not be able to increase the efficiency of searching for anchovy grass.
Next, Ding Qi carefully analyzed the feeling of the four times of true qi restlessness today, and finally, he finally found a rather strange place.
Ding Qi found that the restlessness of true qi did not appear everywhere in the body, but only a part of the body. To be more precise, it was the part of the true qi that he had cultivated during this period of time, plus the true qi that Lao Zhang Tou had given him that he had refined, and the rest of the true qi did not appear abnormal.
Practicing multiple exercises at the same time is a big taboo for martial arts people. Because different types of True Qi will conflict with each other in the cultivator's body and affect and damage the body, it is easy for the cultivator's muscles and veins to be completely wasted and his skills will be greatly lost.
Ding Qi had tried to practice a lot of exercises, and naturally there were many different true qi in his body. However, this did not have much impact on Ding Qi.
Because the several strands of true qi in his body are really too weak, and they are far from reaching the point of causing a conflict of true qi in his body. As long as he concentrates on cultivating one technique in the future, the true qi of those different species will be assimilated completely.
Ding Qi knew that when many martial artists first started to cultivate, they would also try to practice many different exercises like him, and finally choose the one that suited them best. Those alien true qi that remained in the body would soon be assimilated by the main exercises, so naturally there would be no worries.
This time, it was precisely because he had several different True Qi in his body that he realized the problem.
"The cultivated innate true qi can actually sense the existence of anchovy grass?"
After perceiving the trick in the woodland, Ding Qi already had this idea.
After returning to the medicine garden, Ding Qi sat on the bed and thought about the situation of the real qi in his body when he picked the anchovy grass four times today, and thought about it many times. See if it's really related to the true qi of innate power.
However, due to the feeling of restlessness of the true qi, it is extremely weak, and it is even more difficult to distinguish from the memories whether it is caused by the true qi of the innate power in the body. So much so that Ding Qi still doesn't dare to determine the guess in his heart.
In the end, Ding Qi could only wait until the next few days when he went up the mountain to pick anchovies, to verify the conjecture in his heart.
"Regardless of what caused this situation, today's discovery is definitely something to be happy about. Ding Qi put down the doubts in his heart first, and then thought about it.
After getting close to the growing anchovy grass, it will attract real qi to move, which is of great help to Ding Qi to discover the herb, which is a great joy. The only thing that made Ding Qi a little regretful was that through today's observation, he found that the restlessness of true qi caused by approaching the anchovy grass was very faint, and he had to be very careful to feel it. Even, it is almost not much different from the feeling of true qi running in the body. If you don't get it right, you will get it wrong, and it will not be easy to tell the difference.
In order to verify the conjecture in his heart as soon as possible, Ding Qi had to interrupt the original arrangement, and the next day instead of practicing innate skills on this day as planned, he got up from the bed early in the morning, carried a small basket, and rushed to the mountain, and soon crossed the woodland around the mountain road and disappeared into the depths of the mountain forest.
For three days in a row, Ding Qi got up early every morning to go up the mountain, and then came down from the mountain near night. In the past few days, he has been going up the mountain to collect medicines, and the number of anchovy grass in Ding Qi's hands, plus the four plants he picked on the mountain on the first day, there are already more than ten plants, which can be said to be a lot of harvest.
At the same time, after a few days of verification, Ding Qi finally confirmed the guess in his heart. Those who have an induction to the anchovy grass are indeed the part of the true qi that has been cultivated by the innate skill.
"I didn't expect that the innate power would still have this effect. Pulling a anchovy out of the grass and putting it in the basket behind him, Ding Qi said with a sigh.
This is the fourth day in a row that Ding Qi has gone up the mountain to pick herbs. Originally, yesterday, he was basically convinced that the innate power and true qi were inductive. However, in order to ensure the correctness, he went up the mountain again today to verify it again, and finally reassured.
When he speculated that it was probably the true qi he had refined that enabled him to quickly search for anchovy grass, Ding Qi almost gave up the idea of increasing his true qi to improve the efficiency of his search.
But now he found that the true qi cultivated by this innate skill actually had the effect of improving the efficiency of searching for anchovy grass, making it possible for him to give up his original idea.
For a moment, Ding Qi sighed.
With the true qi in his body sensing the anchovy grass, Ding Qi's speed of searching for herbs can be said to have been greatly improved. Originally, it took him an average of three to five days to search for a single anchovy plant. Now, several herbs are harvested every day.
In these three days, with the help of the Innate Gong True Qi Induction, he harvested two herbs in each of the two days, and four in the other day. On average, picking two to three herbs a day is not a problem at all. Compared to the previous efficiency, it is almost ten times more efficient.
"This is still because I have just cultivated the innate skill, as long as I continue to practice this exercise, I think the search efficiency can be greatly improved. Thinking of this, Ding Qi felt a burst of joy in his heart.
Although Ding Qi knew that the innate skill with a mysterious origin was very extraordinary, and it was an extremely advanced exercise. But he didn't expect that after cultivating, it would actually have the function of helping him find anchovy grass.
This new discovery made Ding Qi look at this set of exercises he had cultivated. The mind of cultivating innate skills became extremely hot.
Now, with the help of true qi, Ding Qi's search for anchovy grass has become quite convenient. However, due to the restlessness of the true qi caused by the anchovy, it is extremely weak, and with this feeling, it will go wrong nine times out of ten, and the efficiency needs to be greatly improved.
Ding Qi estimated that as long as he seriously cultivated his innate skills, he could definitely improve his efficiency. By that time, the amount of anchovy he can pick every day will be much higher than it is now.
Ding Qi looked at the sky, it was not early. At this time of the day, he was already preparing to descend, and this time was no exception. While it was not yet dark and he could see the marks left in the forest, he followed the traces left when he entered the mountain and walked down the mountain.
Ding Qi did not go back to the medicine garden first, but rushed to the Tongfu Inn and ate today's dinner. During the past few days up the mountain, he got up in the morning, went to the Tongfu Inn for breakfast, and brought back the noon meal, put it in a basket, and took it to the mountain to eat.
After eating, Ding Qi came out of the inn with a few steamed buns, and when he approached the medicine garden, Ding Qi faintly heard someone calling his name. Near the medicine garden, only Ding Qi and Steward Zhao lived. Naturally, it couldn't have been someone else who called his name.
Ding Qi heard the voice and walked quickly to the medicine garden, and really saw Steward Zhao looking for him in front of the house where he lived.
Seeing that Steward Zhao had something to do and wanted to find his own appearance, Ding Qi thought of something, and his face sank.
