January 15, 1228 in the Ziyun calendar.
As night fell, a carriage pulled by a sweaty horse drove into Qingshan Town from outside Qingshan Town. Unsurprisingly, it attracted a group of passers-by to watch.
The driver of the carriage was Ah Fu, the shopkeeper of Yunxuan Restaurant, and many people recognized him.
"Afu, the shopkeeper of Yunxuan Restaurant, went out with the owner of Yunxuan Restaurant, Master Donghuang, more than ten days ago... Now, have you just come back?"
"It's been so long... have they gone to the county town?"
"It must be going to the county town. Because of the affairs of the three top poor families in the county town, Yunxuan Restaurant has not been able to open its doors so far. If it wants to open its doors again, it must go to the three poor families in the county town to discuss the matter with them. "
"How to discuss the solution? The sons of the heads of the three poor families all had their legs broken by Young Master Donghuang. Even if Young Master Donghuang sends him out of Yunxuan Restaurant, those three poor families may not be willing to give up, right? Moreover, Emperor Donghuang The young master’s strong character doesn’t seem like someone who will give in to weakness.”
"I also think that even if Young Master Donghuang goes to the county town, he will definitely not go to the three top poor families... He will most likely go to find Mr. Zhao."
"That should be the case. If Mr. Zhao is willing to come forward, this matter will not be difficult to solve."
"Until now, I still can't figure it out: Why did Mr. Zhao give Yunxuan Restaurant to him, Zhou Donghuang?"
…
Amid the speculations of a group of people in Qingshan Town, Ah Fu drove the carriage back to the mansion compound behind Yunxuan Restaurant.
"mother."
As soon as he got home, Zhou Donghuang went to find Lin Lan, but Lin Lan happened to be out of practice and was familiarizing himself with martial arts moves in the backyard.
"Donghuang is back."
Seeing Zhou Donghuang return, Lin Lan's originally serious face relaxed and she smiled like a flower.
"Mom, I see that you just performed the "Step to the Stars", and it's already in good shape. It seems that it won't take long for you to master it completely."
Zhou Donghuang smiled.
"I know my mother's level is far worse than Hanfeng's."
Lin Lan shook his head.
After the words fell, Lin Lan seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Zhou Donghuang with a serious face, "Donghuang, I hope you can also help my mother to stimulate her ultimate muscle strength... My mother has only been able to return to the past after switching to the "Eternal Eternal Secret". With my cultivation level, even if I practice the two martial arts you gave me, I can only compete with ordinary Qi-gathering second-level martial arts monks in a short period of time.”
"And if you can stimulate extreme muscle strength, my strength can even be compared to ordinary Qi-gathering third-level martial arts monks."
Lin Lan's eyes showed longing.
"He...has told mother?"
Zhou Donghuang frowned slightly, but he didn't expect Leng Hanfeng to tell his mother about stimulating extreme muscle strength.
"Don't blame him, mother forced him to say it."
Lin Lan said: "The day before yesterday, Lin Tonghong, the fourth elder of the Lin family, came to the door and asked us to hand over Yunxuan Restaurant... In the end, he was defeated by the cold wind and left in disgrace."
"It was at that time that I realized that Hanfeng was already so powerful."
"And as far as I know, before he chose to follow you, he didn't even step into the second level of Qi Gathering."
"I pressed him again and again, and he finally said that all his strength comes from you."
When Lin Lan said this, she stared at Zhou Donghuang with sharp eyes, "Donghuang, if the cold wind can endure the hardship, my mother can also endure it."
"mother."
Zhou Donghuang sighed, "That method can only be used on men, and it is closely related to the man's body structure... And you are not a man, even if you use that method, it will not help."
"real?"
Lin Lan didn't quite believe it. She stared at Zhou Donghuang's face with focused eyes, as if she wanted to find any clues on Zhou Donghuang's face to deceive her.
However, Zhou Donghuang, who has experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, and Gu Jing Wubo, who has long been trained in emotions, how could Lin Lan find out that he was lying
The suffering caused by the cold wind is beyond human endurance.
It's not that he thinks Lin Lan can't endure that kind of suffering, but that he doesn't want Lin Lan to suffer that kind of suffering because it's unnecessary.
After chatting with Lin Lan for a while, Zhou Donghuang left the backyard and went back to his room.
Not long after he returned to his room, Leng Hanfeng came to look for him.
"There are some things that I don't want my mother to know because I'm afraid she will think too much... I don't want the same thing to happen again in the future."
Zhou Donghuang sat at the table, staring at Leng Hanfeng with cold eyes. Leng Hanfeng was so frightened that Leng Hanfeng fell to his knees with a thud, "Young Master, Hanfeng was wrong, Hanfeng promises that there will be no next time. "
"Um."
Zhou Donghuang's expression softened a little, and then he asked calmly: "I heard from my mother that Lin Tonghong, the fourth elder of the Lin family in that county, came here and you defeated him?"
"Master, this is exactly why I came here."
Leng Hanfeng's face straightened and he said: "That Lin Tonghong, although I defeated him, it also took a lot of effort."
"His strength should be considered relatively strong among the third level Qi gathering martial arts monks."
Zhou Donghuang was not surprised when Leng Hanfeng mentioned this.
Lin Tonghong, as the fourth elder of the Lin family, a prominent family in the county, was naturally very powerful, and could not be compared to the ninth elder of the Li family, Li Yan, who died in his hands.
Of course, he was not surprised that Leng Hanfeng could defeat Lin Tonghong.
With Leng Hanfeng's current strength, in Yunfeng County, as long as he doesn't take action, he is basically invincible at the fourth level of Qi gathering.
"I wanted to kill him, but Madam stopped me."
Having said this, Leng Hanfeng's eyes flashed coldly, "Master, if you want him to die, I can catch up with him on a bloody horse and kill him before he reaches the county town."
"He came to Qingshan Town in a carriage, and I also have an impression of the coachman who drove him... I can recognize the carriage he was riding in."
Leng Hanfeng came to Zhou Donghuang to ask Zhou Donghuang if he needed to kill Lin Tonghong.
"Need not."
Zhou Donghuang shook his head, and then a cold light flashed in his eyes at the right time, "Even if he wants to die simply, I am not willing to do so."
In his opinion, killing Lin Tonghong directly was a sign of kindness to Lin Tonghong.
He planned to have fun with Lin Tonghong and make him pay the price of stealing his prescription in despair!
"The young master has a grudge against him?"
Leng Hanfeng was startled.
"Have a grudge? Is he worthy?"
Zhou Donghuang smiled disdainfully.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Donghuang asked Leng Hanfeng to help him get the medicinal materials that had been stored in the warehouse. He wanted to prepare better Qi Gathering Powder.
With the medicinal materials Lu Qinghu helped collect, he will be able to prepare better Qi Gathering Powder, and his cultivation speed will also be further improved.
Half an hour after Leng Hanfeng brought the medicinal materials, Zhou Donghuang prepared a hundred bottles of new Qi Gathering Powder.
The new Qi Gathering Powder can enhance the sense of Qi six times!
You know, the old head of the Qin family, Qin Yi, went to the county and brought back all the medicinal materials, but Zhou Donghuang only allowed Zhou Donghuang to prepare Qi Gathering Powder that enhanced the sense of Qi by four times.
The new Qi-Gathering Powder now prepared is 50% more effective than the previous Qi-Gathering Powder!
"With this new Qi Gathering Powder, I will definitely enter the third level of Qi Gathering in half a month at most!"
The corners of Zhou Donghuang's mouth were slightly curved, giving him a rare smile.
When Leng Hanfeng got the new Qi Gathering Powder given by Zhou Donghuang, he was also frightened, "Enhance the Qi sense six...six times?"
Previously, when Zhou Donghuang gave him the Qi Gathering Powder that quadrupled his sense of energy, he thought he was dreaming.
You know, the best Qi Gathering Powder known in Yunyang country only doubles the Qi feeling.
"Next, I have a task for you."
After Zhou Donghuang said a few more words to Leng Hanfeng, Leng Hanfeng took the order and left Qingshan Town overnight on his bloody horse.
After Leng Hanfeng left, Zhou Donghuang went to Ah Fu again and passed on the "Thunder and Fire Body Refining Technique" to him.
Of course, only the part of the Qi Gathering Realm was taught.
Later, when Afu reaches his cultivation level, he will naturally pass it on to him slowly.
Ah Fu's martial arts talent is indeed average, but with Zhou Donghuang's cultivation, even a pheasant will one day become a phoenix...
On this point, Zhou Donghuang was very confident.
"Thank you, Master."
Ah Fu knelt down excitedly and kowtowed repeatedly.
"Practice hard... I hope you can catch the cold wind as soon as possible."
After leaving ten bottles of the newly prepared Qi Gathering Powder for Ah Fu, Zhou Donghuang left Ah Fu's room and went back to his own room to practice.
He also had high expectations for Ah Fu, otherwise he would not have taught him the "Thunder and Fire Body Refining Technique".
"Thunder and Fire Body Refining Technique", like the "Seven Star Sword Manual", are the top skill manuals among all races in the universe.
After returning to Qingshan Town this time, Zhou Donghuang devoted himself to training and hit the third level of Qi gathering.
However, two days later, while he was concentrating on his cultivation, he was awakened by Ah Fu, "Master, the head of the Lu family is here!"
"Lu Qinghu?"
Zhou Donghuang was a little surprised, "Now, it seems there are still four days until the date I agreed with them, right?"
After walking out of the room, in the front yard, Zhou Donghuang saw not only Lu Qinghu, but also Fang Jishan, the head of the Fang family, and members of the Ma family whom he had met in the Lu family's living room last time.
Lu Qinghu still looks thin, but his eyes are full of energy and full of vitality.
"Breakthrough?"
Zhou Donghuang looked at Lu Qinghu and smiled lightly.
"Thank you, Master Donghuang, for your kindness."
Lu Qinghu bowed at ninety degrees and thanked Zhou Donghuang sincerely. Even though he had now entered the fourth level of Qi Gathering, his posture in front of Zhou Donghuang was still very low.
"Fang Jishan, the head of the Fang family, has met Young Master Donghuang."
"The head of the Ma family, Ma Dongfeng, has met Young Master Donghuang."
At this time, the two people standing behind Lu Qinghu also bowed respectfully to Zhou Donghuang, and they both bowed at ninety degrees.
"Master Donghuang, this is the treasure of our family that has been passed down for six generations, the cold jade hairpin. The cold jade on it is a hundred-year-old cold jade, which has the effect of clearing the mind and calming the air. It is a gift from the Fang family to my wife."
Fang Jishan handed over the delicate box in his hand and said respectfully.
"Master Donghuang, our Ma family does not have treasures like the Fang family's cold jade hairpin... This is a two hundred thousand tael silver note, please accept it with pleasure, Master Donghuang."
After Fang Jishan, Ma Dongfeng also took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and handed them to Zhou Donghuang.
