Chapter 9: Limits
When night falls, the cool evening breeze opens another curtain of the midsummer night sky, and the stars are like bright gems inlaid in the dark night sky, and the square city shrouded in starlight seems to be covered with a hazy veil, which is particularly beautiful. After the lights were lit in front of thousands of houses, the merchants who were busy buying herbs and pills during the day came out to play after they were busy with the things at hand, so after the heat receded, the number of people on the streets did not decrease, but became more and more lively.
In the small courtyard of Zhoufu, the faint fragrance of lotus flowers blows into the dining room with a slight cool breeze, which greatly increases people's appetite. In the center of the dining room is a small round table, on which four steaming dishes are arranged. These four dishes are not only enough for seven or eight ordinary people to eat in one meal, but they are also very elaborate.
"Or the food at home is more to my liking!"
Zhou Fuyao was sitting at the bottom of the winning doubles, holding a big wrist, holding a chopstick dish and saying, and then buried his head in a few large mouthfuls of fragrant spiritual rice in the bowl, like this big-name spiritual rice, Zhou Fuyao had to eat five big bowls every time before he stopped. This spiritual rice is much stronger than the spiritual rice of the Sifang Pharmacy. Because Zhou Fuyao was only a warrior at the peak of the day after tomorrow, his body needed a lot of food to replenish the lost energy. On the other hand, her mother just tasted the taste of these dishes, then put down the chopsticks in her hand and watched Zhou Fuyao gobble there.
"Fuyao, tomorrow your Aunt Mei will ask her mother to accompany her to enjoy the flowers, and I don't know how long it will take to come back. From tomorrow onwards, you can stay in the Quartet Pharmacy and practice more pills. Yingshuang looked at Zhou Fuyao lovingly and said slowly.
"Okay, mother. Zhou Fuyao nodded, he knew that his mother was often taken out by Fang Meila, the city lord of Qingfang City, to go out to play in the mountains and rivers, and it was common for him not to go home for a few days, and he was already used to this kind of thing. This Fang Mei and Ying Shuang are relatives, the two are cousins, and it is because of this relationship that Ying Shuang came to Sifang City.
"Mother, is the eldest prince going to make a move on Sifang City?" Zhou Fuyao asked casually while eating on his stomach.
"Who told you this?" Ying Shuang frowned and asked! She had never told Zhou Fuyao about these things, and she didn't want Zhou Fuyao to get involved in these things.
"It's just hearsay, when I was having lunch today, I overheard a few Dan masters say that now the royal family is fighting fiercely, and sooner or later the trouble will be brought to the Sifang City...... It's not hard to guess!" Zhou explained.
"Well, that's true, Fuyao, you've grown up, and you already know what you're thinking!" Win Shuang looked at Zhou Fuyao kindly and said.
"When you go to the pharmacy, keep a low profile, although there are many guards there, it may also be dangerous! And this time my mother went out of the city to deal with the people of the eldest prince, but it was more dangerous, and it was not suitable to take you with me, so it was safer for you to stay in the Sifang pharmacy. Seeing that Zhou Fuyao had already guessed it, he simply spread it out and said clearly.
"Well, I know. Zhou Fuyao nodded, and said, "Mother, are you also careful?"
"Don't worry, just take care of yourself!" Win Shuang nodded happily and said disapprovingly. She is still very useful for her son's concern.
"Mother, don't worry, I know!" Zhou Fuyao put down the big wrist in his hand, touched his belly, and burped. Recently, he has been eating more and more, and this is all because he feels like he is about to break through the innate nature. Because breaking through the innate requires a lot of energy, and the warriors before the innate could not absorb the aura of heaven and earth, they could only rely on eating to store energy and speed up the speed at which the body produced true qi. And after breaking through the innate nature, he was officially promoted to a monk, and it was a completely new world. Being able to practice spells and be able to fly to the sky and escape to the earth is not a level that can be touched before condensing the true yuan, but also a level that Zhou Fuyao is extremely looking forward to.
Zhou Fuyao returned to his courtyard after dinner, but now he rested in the courtyard for a while, and then took out a long stick from the storage ring. This long stick is called the Panlong Stick, don't look at it black and inconspicuous, but if you underestimate this Panlong Stick, you will definitely suffer. The whole stick is forged with the famous iron essence, and the body of the stick is carved with a thick earth formation, so that the coiling dragon stick, which is only seven feet long, has a weight of five hundred catties, and ordinary martial artists can make such a weight of coiling dragon stick. It's just that the 500-pound coiling dragon stick is as light as a feather and weightless in Zhou Fuyao's hands, and he is playing with it flying up and down.
The crazy devil stick method, this set of stick methods is straight and straight, there are only eight styles, the routines are less skillful, but the skill is not low, and the dance is like a mad demon on a rampage, and it pays attention to one force to drop ten times. Although the mad devil stick method is widely spread, but the mad demon heart method that matches it is not widely spread, and Zhou Fuyao also inherited the complete heart method of this stick method from a wandering Taoist priest by chance.
After more than a dozen crazy magic stick tricks, Zhou Fuyao became more and more excited, his body turned into a swimming dragon, and he slammed the ground with a five-hundred-pound coiling dragon stick. Fortunately, the floors in this courtyard have been specially reinforced, and the formation is specially depicted. Zhou Fuyao slammed it, although there was a loud sound of 'bang, bang, bang' kept coming, and each stick splashed a bunch of sparks, as if it was going to smash through the earth, but the floor was not damaged in the slightest.
And the people in the courtyard have long been accustomed to their young master's actions, but every time they see Zhou Fuyao smashing the courtyard floor like a madman, they can't help but be frightened, for fear that the stick will accidentally come out of his hand and fall on himself.
After practicing the Wind Devil Stick Method back and forth dozens of times, Zhou Fuyao smashed his sex, took off his loose shirt, and what was exposed was a body of muscles without a trace of fat.
Zhou Fu shook the stick and stood, not moving like a loose, and slowly running the mental method: nine turns to practice the body. According to his mother, the Nine Transformations Refining Body was definitely the pressure box exercise of the Buzhou Palace, and it was also the exercise with the largest number of cultivators in the Buzhou Palace. As a bloodline of the Zhou family, he was born with a strong physique, so he also learned the exercises of the Nine Transformations Refining Body. The Nine Turns Refining Body Decision has a total of nine turns, and the first form of cultivation was before the innate one, and after the congenital, each turn is upgraded by one rank. As the name suggests, the nine-turn training body decision takes the route of physical training, paying attention to tempering oneself, and each turn is a breakthrough in the limit of the body. And Zhou Fuyao also began to practice the Nine Revolutions from the day he became sensible, and in the process of cultivation, he added a medicinal bath carefully prepared by his mother to nourish his body, which cultivated such a strange power, and at the peak of the day after tomorrow, he had the amount of flesh that directly caught up with the innate body.
After running nine laps according to the mental method of the first form of the nine-turn body duel, Zhou Fuyao first covered his back with special true qi, and then took out a special leather whip from the storage ring, and after filling the leather whip with true qi, he slapped it on his back, and with a crisp sound, the special leather whip was slammed on his back, leaving a palm-wide bright red mark.
"Ahh
"If you have to endure hardship, you will become a master!"
"From the grinding, the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!"
"The heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds and starve their bodies and skin......"
Zhou Fuyao read aloud the wise words left by the sages in his mouth, and whipped one, two, and three whips on his back over and over again. After a hundred whips on his back, Zhou Fuyao began to whip up his chest with the leather whip in his hand, and finally whipped his whole body, but he didn't even let go of the private place, so he sweated profusely and put the leather whip into the storage ring.
Waiting for Zhou Fuyao to accept the leather whip, at this time, Xiaoqing, the maid who was looking pale on the side, gave a white towel, although Xiaoqing knew that Zhou Fuyao was practicing, but every time he saw his young master, he whipped himself so ruthlessly, he was furious.
Zhou Fuyao took it and wiped it on his body with a white towel, and the faint red blood stains were mixed with a little black impurities on the white towel, which were all impurities discharged with the body. Zhou Fuyao nodded with satisfaction, his nine-turn training body can speed up blood circulation, and then eliminate the impurities in the body through the pores, this is also a process of washing the marrow and cutting the hair, and the greater the external force, the stronger the stimulation, which can make the process more thorough.
Zhou Fuyao threw the towel, then lifted a large bucket of cold water prepared by the next person, poured it from his head, and shouted 'refreshing' before entering the house, where a maid had already prepared a medicinal bath. Under the service of the maid, Zhou Fuyao comfortably soaked in a medicinal bath before falling asleep. This potion was made by her mother according to the recipe of the Buzhou Palace, and a lot of precious medicinal materials were added to it, and there were many medicinal materials that could not be found in this barren Qingqiu country, and they had to be sold from other prosperous places. This kind of cultivation and medicinal bath is held once a day in the morning, except in the evening.
If Zhou Fuyao hadn't been so carefree before, it can be said that the life of the previous ten years was very sad in Zhou Fuyao's eyes. The time every day is full, in addition to alchemy, martial arts, even qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are also involved, and the time of the day is used completely. It was also under this high pressure that Zhou Fuyao had such great achievements, at the age of sixteen, he not only became a five-rank Dan master, but also had the peak cultivation of the day after tomorrow, which is unique in Qingqiu Country.
But Zhou Fuyao also knew that if he was placed in the Buzhou Palace, there would be many teenagers like him who cultivated like him, so he never slackened, because he knew that he would always have to go to that stage in the future to compete with those teenagers. So it's not okay not to work hard. But it is really not easy to cultivate Zhou Fuyao like this with the strength of only one person!
