Feeling the extra energy in his head, Yan Liqiang didn't react for a long time.
He was 100% sure that, before this, nothing like that had ever appeared in his sea of consciousness, and he didn't know what it was, but he felt vaguely that the thing that appeared in his sea of consciousness should be related to the spiritual energy and energy that he had madly absorbed in his head before. It seemed... it seemed that the mysterious area in his brain converted the absorbed energy into this small golden cyclone. This feeling was a bit similar to the process of converting the energy and spiritual energy that was poured into his body into the true qi in his dantian after he had used up all the internal energy in his dantian.
But, what exactly is that golden cyclone
Yan Liqiang was not a person who had never seen the world. Whether in reality or in the Divine Realm of Heaven, he had come across many precious secret books and methods, and had also met many capable people. However, he had never heard of anything that could be cultivated in the head. This was completely contrary to all the martial arts training methods of the Silver Continent. It was really unbelievable.
To be on the safe side, Yan Liqiang carefully checked his entire body, especially his brain, and found that he had no discomfort at all. All his body functions and sensory consciousness were normal, and it couldn't be better. The internal energy in his dantian was also flowing smoothly, and the small golden cyclone should not have any side effects.
By the way, when Yan Liqiang was checking the internal force and true qi in his dantian, he remembered that because his head was too tired when he came back today, he forgot to empty the true qi in his dantian and inject it into the Tiandao Divine Stone before practicing the Yijing Xisui Jing. Therefore, in today's strengthening, the internal force and true qi in his dantian did not increase or strengthen at all.
“Woof…Woof…Woof…Woof…Woof…”
Just when Yan Liqiang wanted to carefully study the function of the golden cyclone in his sea of consciousness, the yellow-haired man downstairs in the yard suddenly shouted, reminding Yan Liqiang that someone was coming.
“Knock… knock… knock…” Then there was a knock on the door downstairs, and the waiter’s voice sounded outside, “Captain Yan, I’m here to bring you dinner…”
Hearing that dinner was served, Yan Liqiang's stomach growled like thunder again and his mouth watered. Then he remembered that he hadn't eaten lunch today and was now starving.
As soon as Yan Liqiang went downstairs, Huangmao ran over, wagging his tail and circling around Yan Liqiang, extremely excited. With Huangmao's sense of smell, he had already smelled the aroma of food coming from the food box outside the door.
"Okay, okay, I know you didn't eat lunch, and you stayed in the yard for the whole afternoon. You have worked hard, so you should eat more at night!" Yan Liqiang reached out and touched the yellow-haired man's head, then opened the door to the yard.
"Ah, Captain Yan, here is our dinner..." As soon as the waiter who served the food saw Yan Liqiang, a warm yet humble smile appeared on his face.
Compared with before, every time the waiter came to deliver meals to Yan Liqiang, the food box he held in his hand was bigger and there was one more. The extra food box was for Huangmao, and the bigger food box was for Yan Liqiang. Since becoming a fifth-rank sword-bearing guard in front of the emperor and the deputy general manager of Luyuan, although Yan Liqiang had never entered the palace and did not have much control over Luyuan, his treatment and status in Luyuan improved a lot. There were many maids in Luyuan, and Eunuch Liu wanted to let a few maids take care of Yan Liqiang's daily life, but Yan Liqiang refused. Similarly, after the emperor's visit, Yan Liqiang's three meals a day contained more and more delicacies and tonic ingredients, and the meals became more and more sumptuous.
"Well, how's the lunge and arrow step that I asked you to teach your son last time going?" Yan Liqiang took the lunch box and asked with a smile.
The waiter was flattered and nodded quickly, "Still practicing, still practicing. My son is not very talented, and Captain Yan's teachings are enough for him to practice for several years. Let's lay a good foundation first..."
"That's good!"
"By the way, Captain Yan, this is a letter that someone just sent to you. I happened to come to deliver your meal, so I brought it here..." The delivery guy said as he took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Yan Liqiang with both hands.
Yan Liqiang took a look at the envelope. There was a word "Fang" written on the top of the envelope, which meant that the letter was sent by Fang Beidou. Yan Liqiang and Fang Beidou had an agreement before that if Fang Beidou wanted to find him for something, he could send the letter to Luyuan.
"Okay, thank you!" Yan Liqiang took the letter and put it directly in his arms without even reading it.
"It's my duty to do something for Captain Yan!"
"Um!"
…
The meal tonight was exceptionally sumptuous. The ingredients that went with the dishes were all precious things like deer paste, blood ginseng, and fairy wolfberry. There were also a few things that Yan Liqiang didn't even recognize. After eating only half of the meal, Yan Liqiang felt his whole body warm, his blood rushing, and his hunger was swept away. It seemed that Eunuch Liu and the Emperor knew that he was going to take on the challenge, and they took out good things, letting the Lu Garden's kitchen run at full capacity, so that he could cultivate his vitality through meals every day and replenish his body's consumption.
After eating all the food that was delivered to him, Yan Liqiang's body was completely revived and full of energy.
After the delivery man left, Yan Liqiang took out the letter that Fang Beidou had sent him and began to read it.
On the surface, Fang Beidou didn't write much in the letter. It was just some insignificant greetings and some trivial matters about the newspaper. Even if the letter fell into the hands of others, those people would not be able to get any useful information from it. However, after reading it, Yan Liqiang's face became solemn, because Fang Beidou's new address at the beginning of the letter was "My dear brother Liqiang..." According to the agreement between him and Fang Beidou before, if the address with the two words "Your Highness" was used at the beginning of the letter, it would mean that the newspaper was in big trouble.
What kind of trouble could a newspaper encounter
After reading the letter, Yan Liqiang put it on the table, frowned, stroked his chin with one hand, and began to think seriously. To be honest, he really didn't know what troubles the newspaper could encounter now, because now the "Han Empire Times" has completely opened up the situation in the imperial capital, and the sales of newspapers have reached new highs. Everything is on the right track and he doesn't have to worry about it at all. At this time, how could it encounter troubles that require him to discuss and solve them
After thinking for a while, Yan Liqiang found that he had no clue, so he simply put the matter aside and stopped thinking about it.
In a few days, I will be blinded. My life is in danger. At this time, what else can be more important than my life? If you don’t face the test of life and death, you will always think that everything is important. Once the test of life and death comes, you will truly find that in life, except for life and death, everything else is trivial.
No matter what happens at the newspaper, I will know when I meet Fang Beidou tomorrow.
Yan Liqiang burned the letter in the brazier and stopped thinking about it. As the sky gradually darkened, Yan Liqiang stayed in his room, concentrating on figuring out what the small golden vortex in his head was and what its use was.
He pondered over it all night, trying every method he could think of, but the small golden cyclone was still slowly turning in his sea of consciousness, motionless, as if it didn't exist.
Finally, late at night, Yan Liqiang had not figured out anything, so he simply re-entered the crystal tower in the sword cave before going to bed and studied and pondered which of the exotic beast core crystals on the sixth floor of the crystal tower was different from the others. Unfortunately, after pondering for several hours, he still could not find out which exotic beast core crystal was abnormal, because all the exotic beast core crystals looked exactly the same to him, with no essential difference. Finally, he could only leave the sixth floor of the crystal tower, return to his room, and fall asleep.
Now, the only strategy Yan Liqiang can adopt to solve the thorny problem on the sixth floor of the Sword Cave Crystal Tower is to procrastinate!
He was completely helpless in the Crystal Tower and had no one to ask, so he wondered if he could find some clues in reality. Fortunately, after he left the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm, time in the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm stood still, and he could stay in the Crystal Tower for a maximum of seven days. The maximum time flexibility between the real world and the Heavenly Dao Divine Realm was also seven days, which meant that he had fourteen more days in the real world in the Crystal Tower to help solve the problem on the sixth floor.
It feels a bit like cheating, but who knows
If the seven days in the Crystal Tower plus the fourteen days in the real world are not enough to solve the problem encountered on the sixth floor, then Yan Liqiang will have no choice but to accept his fate.
Early the next morning, Yan Liqiang went to Ji Xiaoyao, and Ji Xiaoyao continued to train Yan Liqiang using the blind comparison method for the whole morning.
Strangely enough, although it was only the second time to do the same training, and the mental and brain power consumption was equally great, after finishing the training this morning, Yan Liqiang did not feel as if his brain was hollowed out and he was exhausted. Instead, he felt that he still had a lot of energy left both physically and mentally and had no time to continue.
After finishing the training with Ji Xiaoyao and returning to his own yard, Yan Liqiang discovered that the small golden cyclone in his sea of consciousness had shrunk a lot, as if a lot of energy had been consumed. This discovery made Yan Liqiang's heart move. Could it be that the blind comparison training in the morning could also consume the strange energy in his sea of consciousness
This discovery made Yan Liqiang feel as if he had vaguely touched something, but he couldn't put it into words!
Yan Liqiang only practiced the Yijing Xisuijing once. After the mysterious black hole-like area in his brain devoured a lot of spiritual energy and energy from the heaven and earth, the small golden cyclone recovered and even grew a little bit bigger. However, because today's consumption was not thorough enough, the strengthening effect of the Yijing Xisuijing was not as obvious as on the first day.
After lunch, Yan Liqiang left Luyuan and went to find Fang Beidou to see what kind of trouble the newspaper was facing...
