"Ah, Eunuch Liu, why is it you? Are you okay..." Seeing Eunuch Liu vomiting blood, Yan Liqiang quickly threw the eight-meter-long thing in his hand to the ground, ran over and asked with concern.
“It’s okay, it’s okay. We heard that you have been practicing hard at the archery range these days, so we wanted to test your strength, but we didn’t expect... cough cough cough cough…” Eunuch Liu didn’t say a word and started coughing violently. His lungs were stretched like a leaky bellows. Yan Liqiang hurriedly patted Eunuch Liu on the back to slowly let the breath flow back. After two minutes, Eunuch Liu’s complexion slowly recovered, and then he gently waved his hand, asking Yan Liqiang to stop patting him.
"Young and strong people are better at fighting, young and strong people are better at fighting..." Eunuch Liu shook his head, "Just now, I used only 40% of my strength to attack you, deliberately provoking you with murderous intent, just to see how strong you can be in a critical moment, but I didn't expect your reaction and strength to be so terrifying, I couldn't even stop you..."
"I didn't know it was you, Eunuch Liu, who did it. Please forgive me..." Yan Liqiang scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"It's not your fault. It's our fault that we didn't expect your strength to be so great. It's simply divine power..." At this point, Eunuch Liu seemed to notice that Yan Liqiang was still carrying several heavy weapons on his back with chains, and the heavy weapon that Yan Liqiang had just brought over was also thrown on the ground. Looking at the eight-meter-long spear assembled with four iron rods, it looked really terrifying. "Is this what you ordered in the blacksmith's workshop far away?"
"Well, yes, this is what I ordered at the blacksmith's workshop!"
"How much does one weigh?"
“350 pounds!”
After hearing what Yan Liqiang said, Eunuch Liu looked at the big thing on the ground again, took a deep breath, rubbed his still sore wrist, and murmured, "So, the total weight of the thing you just threw at me is 1,440 kilograms..."
"Well, it's like this..."
"The six you are carrying on your back are..."
"2100 jin..." Yan Liqiang said frankly. Although he didn't like to show off, since Eunuch Liu had already seen it, there was no need for him to hide anything from him.
After listening to this, Eunuch Liu walked to the big thing that Yan Liqiang dropped, took a deep breath, bent down, and tried to pick up the thing on the ground. However, he used all his strength to lift only one end of the thing from the ground, while the other end of the thing was still on the ground. Then he put the thing down panting.
Eunuch Liu's cultivation level is high, but it does not mean that his strength will be greater than Yan Liqiang's. Although the improvement of the level will also increase the strength, the increase is limited and will not necessarily bring about an explosive growth in strength. More importantly, it is actually the improvement of personal potential and internal skills. In addition, Eunuch Liu is old at this time, and his physical strength is not as good as before. It is normal that he cannot lift the big thing that Yan Liqiang just used.
"It really weighs more than 1,400 kilograms..." Eunuch Liu shook his head and looked at Yan Liqiang again, "How can you lift such a heavy thing?"
"I don't know about this!" Yan Liqiang started to act dumb, with a cute face, "Ever since I broke through the horse stance, I feel that my body strength is getting stronger day by day. After coming to Luyuan this month, I have been practicing every day, and my strength has increased rapidly..."
"That means he was born with supernatural powers..." Eunuch Liu muttered to himself, "More than 200 years ago, there was a general in our Han Empire who was just like you, born with supernatural powers, and ate only half a bucket of rice..."
"Well, probably..." Yan Liqiang touched his head.
"Hey, pick up this thing on the ground and show it to us..."
After listening to Eunuch Liu's words, Yan Liqiang bent down without much effort and picked up the big thing on the ground.
Seeing Yan Liqiang pick up the thing on the ground so easily, Eunuch Liu's eyebrows jumped unconsciously again. He looked around and pointed at a big rock on the ground not far away, "Try to see if you can smash the big rock..."
The big rock was about the size of two cows. It was lying in a pile of weeds and looked like it weighed four or five tons.
"Father-in-law, this noise is a bit loud..."
"There is no one here except you and me. Don't worry, we have the final say here. Do you think we should ask you to pay compensation..."
Hearing what Eunuch Liu said, Yan Liqiang stopped talking. He looked at the stone, took the eight-meter-long iron rod in his hand, roared, and rushed over. When he was more than ten meters away from the stone, he had already swung the iron rod with both hands, then rushed forward, without paying attention to any quick skills, and smashed it down with a heavy stick... "
With a loud "bang", the stone, which was almost as big as two cows, was hit by Yan Liqiang's iron rod and broke directly in the middle, with rocks flying everywhere.
After smashing the huge rock, Yan Liqiang put away the big iron rod and stood calmly.
Eunuch Liu watched from the side, his eyes flickering between the broken rocks and Yan Liqiang. He didn't speak for a long time. After a long while, he asked Yan Liqiang a question, "Well... Master Sun, do you know that you were born with supernatural powers?"
"When I followed Lord Sun before, I did show off in front of the guards and lifted an iron chain weighing over 300 pounds. Lord Sun has never seen anything like what I did today..." Yan Liqiang shook his head.
"Does that mean that we are the first people in our family to see you have such supernatural powers?"
"Well, I guess so!"
"Just now I saw you practicing spearmanship, right?"
"Well, you have good eyesight, sir. I only practiced the basics of spearmanship, but I have never learned any other advanced spearmanship!"
Eunuch Liu sighed, "With your strength, even if you haven't learned advanced spear techniques, as long as the weapon in your hand is heavy enough and you are fast, how many people can resist a spear or a stick? We almost suffered a big loss just now, let alone others? I heard that you got a ten-stone bow from the warehouse. Do you think your five-stone bow is not suitable?"
At this point, a trace of regret appeared on Yan Liqiang's face. "I don't want to hide it from you, father-in-law. I accidentally broke the five-stone bow when I was practicing a few days ago, so I went to the warehouse to get a ten-stone bow to practice. The situation in Beijing is complicated. It's best not to let too many people know about your innate supernatural power for the time being!"
"Thank you for the reminder, I understand!"
"Well, if you need anything these days, just tell us. If you have any special needs, you can come to our house directly..." Eunuch Liu's eyes swept across Yan Liqiang's feet. The ordinary warrior shoes on Yan Liqiang's feet had been broken just when he swung his stick to smash the boulder. Because the shoes could not withstand the huge force of Yan Liqiang stepping on the ground, Yan Liqiang's toes were exposed. At this time, Eunuch Liu finally understood why Yan Liqiang was so "slippery"...
"Okay, I'll remember that. Thank you, sir!"
"Hmm!" The voice was still echoing in his ears. When Yan Liqiang raised his eyes, Eunuch Liu had disappeared.
Yan Liqiang didn't think much about it, but he felt that Eunuch Liu had no ill will towards him, so after Eunuch Liu left, seeing that it was still early and his physical strength had not yet been completely used up, he could only continue to practice in the forest, hoping to gain greater benefits when he recovered later...
During this month, Yan Liqiang himself discovered that the effect of the I Ching Xisui Jing completely overturned his imagination. As his body strength increased exponentially every day, he found that it was becoming increasingly difficult to overdraw his physical strength in a short period of time. The only thing he could do now was to continue to increase the weight on his body.
The preface to the Book of Changes on Cleansing the Marrow says that Marshal Yue gained such terrifying power because of practicing the Book of Changes on Cleansing the Marrow. However, Yan Liqiang himself felt that it was because the spiritual energy and energy of this world were more abundant. He felt that the effect of practicing the Book of Changes on Cleansing the Marrow in this world seemed to be more terrifying and powerful than the Earth where he lived in his previous life. The gains of these days also exceeded Yan Liqiang's imagination.
Yan Liqiang had no idea how much of a shock he had brought to Eunuch Liu today. While Yan Liqiang was still practicing at the archery range, Eunuch Liu had already hurriedly left the Deer Garden in a carriage, heading for the Imperial Palace...
