A black cloud-patterned shirt with a white jade belt tied around his waist, making his figure look even more upright and majestic.
Shen Yi slowly walked out of the room door.
The old woman smiled and said: "Oh, youre much more handsome than Bi Heng, come sit down quickly."
Fang Heng moved the table into the courtyard, brought over a few plates of light refreshments, and only then did his gaze fall upon the cloud pattern on Shen Yis sleeve.
Without saying a word, he picked up his spoon and silently scooped three bowls of thick porridge.
He helped his grandmother sit down: "Theres only me and grandma here, were simple folk who eat plain food, if you dont mind, just help yourself to a couple of mouthfuls."
"Thank you for your hospitality."
Shen Yi ate two days worth of dry rations, and without pretending to be reserved, she sat down at the table and swallowed a small dish and a mouthful of porridge.
Seeing him eating with relish, the old ladys smile grew even more: "Youre from Baiyun County? White Wei said in her letter that youre a good kid. Are you married yet? If not, Ill introduce someone to you?"
At these words, Shen Yi was choked by porridge for a moment: "......"
Fang Heng seemed to be used to it and ate silently without saying a word.
Until the big bowl was empty, he put down his chopsticks: "At least two months before Master returns, you will stay here."
As he spoke, Fang Heng went back into the house and took out a two-finger-thick book, placing it on the table.
"Master was famous in Qingzhou when he was young, relying on his five unique skills."
"Mastering one of them will allow you to overpower the demons in the same realm, and its being passed down to us. This isnt the demonic suppression departments martial arts, and I wouldnt be breaking any rules by teaching it to you."
"But you are not a member of our school, so this can only be learned and cannot be passed on."
Shen Yi and Zhang Tutu have chatted for so many days, and she is no longer the ignorant little white she used to be.
Whether its the Demon Suppression Division or the Jianghu sects, without permission, privately leaking martial arts will not only result in severe punishment for the transmitter, but also for the practitioner. At best, they would have their limbs severed or their meridians destroyed, literally taking back the martial arts, and at worst, their lives would be forfeit.
No wonder things ended up so badly in the beginning. Lin Baiwei was still there, blindly making up martial arts moves, trying to bluff her way through.
The last thing he could teach was indeed the Four-Element True Seal.
"I have obtained the method of Fa, called Jie Mai Gun Long, which is a profound martial art in the Jade Liquid Realm, belonging to fist and palm work."
"I will take a one-month break, and only post three times a day, once in the morning, noon, and evening. If you have any questions or dont understand something, just ask me."
Fang Heng slowly got up, saying lightly: "Before you learn, you cant leave the yard, and youre not allowed to go and fool around with Li Xinhans crowd. The cloud pattern on your sleeve wasnt obtained by relying on connections."
At these words, Shen Yi slightly raised her eyes, and her expression couldnt be read.
He used to think Lin Baiwei was too cunning and difficult to get along with.
Unexpectedly, I came to Qingzhou, whether its Li Xinhans or Fang Heng in front of me, without mentioning the overbearing attitude, but the tone of voice with that thread of unyielding arrogance is simply like a mold carved out.
The condescending attitude hidden beneath a calm demeanor is indeed somewhat unsettling.
“……”
The grandmas face turned darker as she listened, suddenly picked up a twig from the ground and lightly whipped Fang Hengs calf: "Youve learned to intimidate people, cant you let others finish eating before speaking? The child that Bai Wei couldnt praise enough, could be the kind of person you described?"
Fang Heng lowered his head and stood still for a moment before saying, "Consider it as me having said something wrong."
Wait until grandmas anger subsides.
He walked towards a small tree with a trunk as thick as a bowl, his muscles trembling slightly all over, and then his fists and palms shot out like arrows, seemingly hitting the tree randomly.
The tree trunk that Shen Yi could easily snap with a casual gesture did not show even the slightest sign of trembling under Fang Hengs continuous blows.
"All things have their own logic and order; find the key point and grasp it."
Fang Heng slowly withdrew his palm and turned his head: "Right, did you bring a bottle of Kaiwei Dan?"
Shen Yi took out the medicine bottle: "This one?"
"Except for those who come out of the medicinal bath, each town demon suppression envoy can receive three when they enter."
"Take and swallow, refine the medicinal power, can relax the pulse and expand the orifices. Take one every three months, after all refinement, can widen the twelve major orifices in the body by 90%, afterwards, whether it is tempering Qi or storing Qi, both can be increased by nearly double."
Fang Heng simply explained it.
Shen Yi lowered her head and looked at the medicine bottle in her hand, still feeling a little surprised after fully understanding what the other person meant.
The efficiency of tempering ones breath is doubled. For a beginner martial artist, one day of bitter practice can replace the previous two days, equivalent to a transformation in innate talent.
Another utility is even more mysterious.
The Great Voids stored breath is fixed, this is the conclusion that Shen Yi arrived at after exhausting an extremely large amount of demonic lifespan, even with a hundred years as the unit of time, it can only slowly condense the breath into jade liquid.
If you expand your skills by 90%, and start working on it, wouldnt that be equivalent to having almost twice the physical strength of others?
And yet such a precious medicine is available to everyone.
"Is this elixir very common?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Heng withdrew his gaze: "It was once the exclusive treasure of Qingzhous great sect, Songhe Gate, called Yijing Zhuanxue Pill. It was only provided to a small number of inner disciples. Later, when Songhe Gate colluded with demons and was eradicated by the Demon-Subduing Department, they brought back the alchemical formula. Other sects also have similar effects, but even the best among them only has 50% efficacy."
He continued: "The salary of the Demon-Slaying Department is not high, but the treatment is still good... However, the premise is that you can survive."
Having said that, Fang Heng turned around and went back into the house.
Exposing that small tree with no wrinkles.
Shen Yi gazed silently at the past, the tree was still the same tree, but whether it was the lush green leaves or the straight trunk, they all lost their vitality at this moment, revealing a hint of "dead silence", looking extremely eerie.
Although I dont quite understand its subtleties, a martial art that can be mentioned in the same breath as the Four-Directional True Seal must be pretty good.
He stretched out his hand and began to flip through the books on the table with a seemingly distracted expression.
A moment later, an extra line of text appeared on the panel.
Jade Liquid Cuts Pulse and Captures Dragon (Not Yet Entering the Gate)
"Hey kid, whats wrong with the way youre reading? Are you full? Is it agreeing with your stomach? If youre full, take it back to your room and read slowly."
The grandma pushed him up and urged him to go inside.
"It doesnt matter, theres plenty of time."
Shen Yi looked at the little old lady with a hint of helplessness, and his eyes showed a few more points of warmth.
He put away the book and bent down to help clean up the table.
Although it was easy to order Chen Ji and Lin Baiwei around, he didnt have the nerve to let an unrelated elderly person do chores for him.
Moreover, recently Ive seen many so-called geniuses. In the past, Shen Yi was most afraid of being disturbed by his seven aunts and eight elder sisters, but now he suddenly realizes... that he is still more used to getting along with the latter.
Even if asked about objects or salary, its more comfortable than being arbitrarily labeled.
“……”
Fang Heng stood inside the house, looking at his grandmothers cheerful appearance, then turned to Shen Yi, his expression becoming indifferent.
Firstly, when Lin Shi Jie was in trouble, the lion opened its mouth wide and asked for two volumes of Yu Ye Jing Wu Xue, or even Si He Zhen Gang and Jie Mai Zhan Long, such precious items.
Even with the talent of several senior brothers and sisters, they can only choose one elective course.
The other sides cultivation is just enough to dare to covet both forms.
As soon as I entered the Town Demon Department, I met Li Xinhans men, a group of rich young masters who looked quite familiar to me. On my first day, I had already mixed with the Yunwen shirt.
Even the grandmother who has no background and only needs to take care of herself, the other party also offers her courtesy, probably thinking that she is a wise and noble person.
Being both greedy and stupid is really annoying.
It is human nature to want to stay here and take off from this opportunity.
But even covering up is too lazy to cover up.
This is not called fawning and flattering, being greedy without satiety, what is it?
