Nan Feng was joking with the fat man unintentionally, holding a tea cup and thinking quietly. The two warriors met Li Chaozong yesterday evening, and they came here to set up shop in the evening. This means that they are here or somewhere not far to the west. Chengchi met Li Chaozong and others.
At this time, the location of the two men was not far from the north-south official road of Liang State. Li Chaozong and others appeared here, indicating that they did not return to the Western Wei Dynasty immediately after their defeat at Fengming Mountain, but came south along the official road.
The purpose of these people going south is unknown, but it is true that these people are not far from the two of them. In order to avoid running into Li Chaozong and others, it is best to stay here for a few more days.
The two warriors next door didn't mention Li Chaozong again. After washing, they set off on the road.
The two of them also traveled all night and were very tired. They closed the door and fell asleep.
In the afternoon, Nanfeng woke up first. Seeing that the fat man was still sleeping, he didn't rush to wake him up. He drank a cup of tea first, and then sat cross-legged in his room to meditate.
When practicing Qi, you can clearly feel that the Qi-Building Spiritual Pill in your body is quickly emitting spiritual energy. Unfortunately, the meridians are blocked. You only know that the spiritual energy emitted by the Spiritual Pill is full and vast, but you cannot accurately determine what the Qi-Building Spiritual Pill has dispersed. How much aura.
The fat man woke up at Shen Shi. Since it was not time for dinner, he accompanied Nanfeng to meditate in his room. In the evening, he got out of bed and put on his shoes. "This elixir is really powerful. If nothing else happens, I will be able to achieve physical fitness tomorrow." Nara."
Although Fatty practices qi, he uses the eight-part golden body magical power method, which is slightly different from the Taoist ninth level. There are eight levels in his qi training, and Kinnara is the second level, and also the second of the eight-part golden body. Heavy.
"Two hours, one..." Nanfeng murmured to himself, and at the same time recalled in his mind how many hours the fat man had meditated since he took the elixir.
"Do you want to calculate how many grades of elixir the King of Medicine gave us?" The fat man guessed Nan Feng's intention.
Nan Feng nodded.
"Forget it, did you forget to let me take the elixir your wife gave you? That's not allowed." The fat man said.
"It makes sense." Nanfeng put back his thoughts and put on his shoes and went to the ground.
Nanfeng stopped estimating, but Fatty started to calculate. After recalling it, he said, "All I have to do is meditate for only two days and nights. Before taking the medicine, I was four in one level, and now I am nine in one level. It won't take long for us to know if this goes on. The Medicine King gave us several grades of elixirs."
Nanfeng waved his hand, "The spiritual energy needed for the first Jin, the second and the second Jin is not the same. If the meridians are not connected, I can't sense it accurately. That's all, let it go. Let's go to eat first. Li Chaozong and the others may be nearby, don't be in a hurry. We’re on our way, let’s stay here for a few days before we talk.”
The fat man nodded in agreement, and the two of them went from the backyard to the front hall, had a simple dinner, and then went back to the room to meditate and practice Qi. Others who practiced Qi could accurately feel the gradual increase of spiritual energy in the body, but the Nanfeng meridian was blocked. The Qi-Building Pill has received a large amount of spiritual energy, but it is impossible to judge how much spiritual energy the Qi-Building Pill has emitted. Nor does it know what state the spiritual energy stored in the body can advance to after the meridians are unblocked.
At midnight, Nanfeng was tired from practicing and went to the ground to stop his work. The fat man was eager to advance to Kinnara, so he did not wash up with him. He was still practicing Qi when Nanfeng fell asleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Nanfeng was pushed awake by the fat man. When he opened his eyes, he found that the fat man was holding a door stick in his hand.
Fatty had done something similar before. Nanfeng knew what he wanted to do, so he turned over and sat up, taking the door stick from Fatty's hand.
"Wait a minute, I'll get lucky first." The fat man made a lunge and drew his arms to do his exercises, "Okay, come on."
Nanfeng yawned, "Where?"
"Whatever." Fatty said.
"Are you sure you've reached the second level?" Nanfeng confirmed. His habit was to hit the head, and last time he knocked the fat man down with one stick.
The fat man nodded solemnly.
Nanfeng didn't hesitate, and used all his strength to raise the wooden stick and hit the fat man on the head.
After a muffled sound, the door stick, which was as thick as a child's arm, broke into two pieces.
"Are you okay?" Nanfeng asked with a frown. He didn't know whether the fat man was hurt or not, but he felt pain when he saw it.
"It's okay." The fat man touched his head, turned and walked towards the door, "Wait, I'll be back soon."
"Why are you going?" Nanfeng asked.
The fat man didn't answer, opened the door and left.
It was stuffy in the room. Nanfeng got up to drink water. Before finishing the cup of tea, the fat man came back with a kitchen knife in his hand.
"What do you want to do?" Nan Feng put down the tea cup in surprise.
The fat man closed the door and handed the kitchen knife to Nanfeng, "Here, let's try this."
"Quickly save it. If you want to chop it off, you can do it yourself." Nanfeng turned around and left.
The fat man hurriedly followed up, "You are stupid, you don't know how to try to chop, you have to use the strength to eat milk?"
The south wind stopped, and the fat man was right, he could take his time.
In order to make Fatty know what he was doing, Nanfeng took the kitchen knife and looked at Fatty up and down, looking for a place to start.
"Come on." The fat man put his shoulder towards him.
Nanfeng put the kitchen knife against the fat man's shoulder and carefully pulled and cut it. When the kitchen knife touched the flesh, there was obvious resistance and tenacity from the blade.
"No, no, it hurts." The fat man hurriedly stopped.
Nanfeng handed the kitchen knife back to the fat man, "The first level can block fists and kicks, and the second level can resist sticks. If you want to be invulnerable, you need more than three levels."
"Yes, you go back to sleep, and I will send the kitchen knife back." The fat man took the kitchen knife and returned it.
After witnessing the power of the second level of the Eight-part Golden Body, the fat man was very excited and eager to move up to the next level to become invulnerable. He practiced Qi even more diligently in the following days. He really had his head and buttocks stabbed with needles. He practiced Qi every day. More than eight hours.
Nan Feng is also practicing Qi, but he is not as eager as Fatty. He practices Qi for six hours every day. The rest of the time will be spent in the front hall listening to the passing merchants and martial artists talking about outside matters.
Before that, Uncle Wang was in danger and was talked about by many people. Since the emperor became a monk, few people mentioned Uncle Wang's matter. Most of the talk in the market was about the emperor becoming a monk at Wuchang Temple.
Since this was not the first time that the emperor had become a monk, and everyone was used to it, what they were concerned about was not the emperor becoming a monk, but the consequences. It was said that the ministers had raised 500,000 taels, but the emperor refused to go back. Two additional conditions were added. One was to confer the abbot of Wuchang Temple, Yinguang Monk, as the protector of the country. The other was to build a large number of temples in the Liang Kingdom, one temple per city, a total of 480, which must be completed within two years. Only when the court officials agreed to his two conditions would he be willing to go back.
Putting aside the expense of money, Emperor Wu of Liang made it clear that he wanted to suppress Taoism and promote Buddhism. With the protector of the country, where would he put the protector of the country? However, Headmaster Taiqing has not responded to the matter at this time. Everyone is speculating on how he will respond after the imperial edict is officially issued, and whether there will be fierce conflicts between Taoism and Buddhism.
In addition, everyone is still worried that the neglect of the government will allow the Western Wei and Eastern Wei to take advantage of the situation. Nanfeng knows this well. Not long ago, the Western Wei sent troops to attack the Eastern Wei. Now the two should be fighting fiercely, and no one can escape. Don't take action to attack Liang Guo.
Although Nanfeng grew up in Chang'an, he is a Han. Both the Eastern and Western Wei Dynasties were controlled by foreigners. Deep down in his heart, he rejected it. The Liang Kingdom was a Han court, but it gave birth to such an inconspicuous emperor. It would probably take a lot of effort to deal with it like this. Soon the country will be destroyed.
After staying here for five days, the two set off on their way.
After walking for half a day, a larger city appeared in front of it. It was located on the north-south official road, where many people from the rivers and lakes, traders and foot soldiers came and went.
The reason why the Liang State is rich is not only because the land is fertile and suitable for farming, but also because the coast of the Liang State produces salt. Salt is necessary for people's livelihood and is controlled by the government. This is the distribution center for the salt of the Liang State.
After getting to the official road, the two of them went all the way south. As usual, they walked at night and stayed overnight. They braced themselves for fear of bumping into Li Chaozong and others.
It would only take seventy or eighty miles to walk overnight, and it would take at least more than a month to reach the southwest border.
In the early morning ten days later, the two of them stayed at Jian'er's hotel as usual. Shortly after falling asleep, Nanfeng was woken up by the fat man. When he opened his eyes, he found that the fat man had another kitchen knife in his hand.
"Here, try again." The fat man handed over the kitchen knife.
"What for?" Nanfeng asked in confusion.
"I have mastered the third level of Garuda." Fatty said.
"Stop making trouble and go to sleep." Nanfeng turned over.
"What's wrong?" the fat man asked.
"It takes one year to refine the first-level elixir, two years for the second-level elixir, and three years for the third-level elixir. You have only been here for a few days, half a month?" Nanfeng asked back. Yuan Anning once told the two of them back then. Some situations of Qi-tonifying elixirs.
"I've really reached the third weight." Fatty said.
Seeing that the fat man didn't seem to be joking, Nan Feng turned over and sat up, "Really?"
The fat man nodded seriously.
Nanfeng was dubious, and looked at the fat man's expression as if he was not joking. Could it be that the Buddhist qi training method could speed up the refining of the qi-boosting elixir, or maybe Uncle Wang had tampered with the elixir before giving it to him
"Come." The fat man put the kitchen knife into Nanfeng's hand.
The stick can be smashed randomly, but the knife cannot be chopped randomly. Nanfeng held the knife in his hand and hesitated for a long time without making a move. The kitchen knife was very sharp, and the consequences of one strike were unpredictable.
The fat man urged urgently, but Nanfeng had no choice but to try carefully as before. This time the resistance from the blade was greater and the toughness was stronger.
Seeing this, Nanfeng increased his strength, and the fat man shouted to stop again, "No, it still hurts."
"Have you really reached the third level?" Nanfeng asked. The eight-part golden body is different from the ordinary iron cloth shirt covered with a golden bell. The eight-part golden body is a Buddhist magical skill. If you practice it to the third level, you should be able to become invulnerable and divine. It's definitely not a weapon, but a kitchen knife should be able to stop it.
"How can this be false?" The fat man raised his hand and scratched his head, frowning and thinking. After a moment, he suddenly realized, "I understand, less spells."
Without waiting for Nanfeng to answer, the fat man quickly recited a string of Sanskrit words and turned his right shoulder towards Nanfeng.
Seeing him like this, Nanfeng could only try again. This time the resistance from the blade was extremely huge and tough, and the kitchen knife couldn't pull when it touched the skin.
The fat man looked solemn and nodded heavily to Nanfeng, indicating that he would slash boldly.
Seeing the fat man's confidence, Nan Feng took the courage to chop him with a knife. When the kitchen knife touched the flesh, he was immediately knocked back by the shock.
He used more force and struck again, but it bounced back again.
He tried hard to cut again, but it still bounced back.
"Haha, it's done..."
