Chapter 9 Bottom Line(1/2)
Sima Xiang, the legal minister of Weinan County, is rumored to be a rigid, dull and boring person.
But this spring, Sima Xiang did something that people in Weinan County talked about.
On the second day after Yin Xuuge killed the rainy night thief, Sima Xiangqin wrote an invitation and sent it to the prefect's mansion with his servants, inviting the prefect Lin Jingfeng to go for an outing by the Weishui River to enjoy the beautiful scenery of spring.
It is said that Lin Jingfeng went happily and brought hundreds of singers, musicians, literati, and elegant scholars. The vast team set up camp by the Wei River, where they had a lot of fun with outings, singing and dancing, spring hunting, and poetry writing.
All day long.
The host, Sima Xiang, and the guest, Lin Jingfeng, said goodbye after the outing and returned to their respective mansions.
The Dharma Chancellor of the Law Mansion still stayed behind closed doors, but the prefect Lin Jingfeng showed up in public, and the number of banquets held suddenly decreased a lot, which made some rotten literati who wholeheartedly followed Lin Jingfeng to eat and drink very boring.
Not only that, the common people in the market were also surprised to find that prices in the market were quietly falling.
It used to cost only three cents to buy two eggs, fresh green shell eggs, but now you can get them for two cents. Others include old hens, pig knuckles, pig heads, white fish, etc., whether it is Yin Xuuge or Qing Ling
They are all extremely delicious and the prices have returned to the same level as a year ago.
In the ancient city of Weinan, Miao Tianjie, who used to parade around in bright clothes and angry horses with a group of followers, suddenly disappeared.
According to the legend of the urban dandy, Zhou Tianjie lost his footing after a rain and slipped on a moss-covered stone path in the backyard of the Taishou Mansion. Unfortunately, he broke seven or eight ribs. Without dozens of days of rest, he was unable to come out to see people.
The spring scenery in the ancient city is still beautiful, the gorgeous spring sun and the elegant and quiet full moon shine on the small town as always.
What happened on that rainy night has been revealed, and no ripples remain.
In the past half a year, Zhao Ji and Li Ye, who had been constantly being transferred outside the city to look for bandits, finally got a chance to breathe. They no longer went out to work in the field, and every day they wore official uniforms majestically and led legal guards in the city.
Walking slowly on the street shocked Xiaoxiao.
Every day they would go around the front and back of Yin Xuuge's house twice to declare their care for Yin Xuuge.
And their monthly salary and elixirs, which were constantly being squandered by the family, were all distributed to them one by one.
The Shuilongmen vanished into thin air. More than 10,000 people were exiled to Western Xinjiang overnight. However, a Qinglongmen replaced them three days later and still took over the water transportation business for thousands of miles up and down the ancient city of Weinan.
The original Shuilongmen headquarters, as well as a restaurant, three to five shops, and even more than a dozen large and small houses in the ancient city of Weinan, including the homes of those who were exiled, were all put up for public auction by the Law Office.
The big and small families in the ancient city of Weinan opened their mouths calmly, without even showing a single fang, and ate up the last benefit left by Shuilongmen. Among them, the Yin family accounted for the majority, and in the end
Good shops, the largest houses, including the six-door restaurant on the most prosperous section of the city were all owned by the Yin family.
Inexplicably, the monthly salary given to Yin Xuuge by the Yin family suddenly increased from ten taels of silver for ordinary children to thirty taels for elite children.
In addition to money, food, sesame oil, salt, even soap locust powder, cotton cloth, cloth shoes and other items were distributed.
What left Yin Xuege speechless the most was that Zongxue actually gave him an extra twenty-one Guyuan Pills, saying it was to reward him for his courage in killing three thieves on a rainy night. He sent the Guyuan Pills to his door
Zongxue Normal School even sent a message from Yin Jiuyou.
"Xue Ge is truly a hero of our Yin family. I will use him in the future."
All this happened in just three days, and then all the effects quietly dissipated, like a spring dream, leaving no trace.
There is an extra thousand taels of gold in the secret room of Yin Xuege's family.
Twelve large gold bars. A hundred of them were piled together, which looked really dazzling.
Qing Lian happily slept in the secret room, except for the meals she cooked every day, she didn't come out at all.
Next to the one thousand taels of gold, there was also three hundred taels of silver, which was the reward given by the prefect's mansion for killing three thieves.
Qing Ling, who had sacrificed herself for a few copper coins, showed disdain for the silver.
She even said this to Yin Xuege.
"It's just silver. Hey, when you have gold, who cares about silver?"
"The governor is too ignorant. He should exchange the silver into gold before sending it over."
But after thinking about it for a while, Qing Ling explained to herself this way.
"It's just that he is also a smart man. Three hundred taels of silver is only three taels of gold."
"It's embarrassing enough for him to send us three hundred taels of silver. Wouldn't it be embarrassing enough for him to send us three hundred taels of gold?"
Regarding Qing Ling, Yin Xuege just smiled, patted her on the head, and let her sleep in the secret room with those yellow and white things.
Naturally, he would not tell Qing He that Governor Lin Jingfeng was embarrassing enough, but he was not embarrassed here. It should be at the outing meeting, where he was truly embarrassed in front of Sima Xiang.
"It's really cruel. How much greed does he have to have to change the number of eggs on the market from three eggs for two cents to two eggs for three cents? It's only been three years. This is really cruel.
"
Of course, the issue of eggs is not important, at least now he and Qing Ling can both afford eggs.
So he still asked for leave from Zongxue, using the excuse that he was slightly injured while killing three robber thieves, so he did not go to Zongxue to waste time.
In the next few days, he took a Gu Yuan Dan every day, and gradually tempered his body and strengthened his strength with the help of the old poplar tree in the martial arts field. He circled the old poplar tree, stepping on the Yin Feng Steps over and over again, striking out the Yin Wind
Palm, from time to time extract a trace of green energy into the whole body.
Time passed day by day, and when the case of murdering a thief on a rainy night gradually disappeared under the control of a thoughtful person, seven days passed.
Taking a deep breath, Yin Xuuge stood under the old poplar tree, with a ray of hot air rising three feet high above his head.
The muscles all over the body squirmed like a snake, and the joints collided with each other, making a crisp sound. The internal organs squirmed rapidly, as if there were several frogs hiding in the belly, and they were constantly making a crisp sound of "croaking".
In the martial arts arena, a set of stone locks for testing physical strength left by Yin Xuuge's father were randomly thrown there.
Seven days have passed, and his physical strength has not reached a hundred jun as he expected. It is only ninety-nine jun. He is still one jun of strength short of reaching the completion of body tempering. His physical strength can withstand the opening of acupoints and the vitality of heaven and earth.
The terrifying impact caused by infusion.
But it just lacks the power of this jun.
After taking the seven Guyuan Pills, based on his absorption of the Guyuan Pills, he should reach a hundred-jun strength.
But now, there is just such a thin line. Breaking through this thin bottleneck, he is the earliest genius among all the Yin family disciples in the same age group to reach the realm of body tempering.
He worked hard for more than an hour, using the Yinfeng Palm and Yinfeng Steps, which almost caused all the muscles and bones in his body to twist. The last line still failed to break through. On the contrary, a large amount of sticky black-red dirt continued to seep into his body.
came out, forming a thick layer on the surface of his skin.
"It is indeed an ordinary family inheritance."
Frowning and sniffing the pungent dirt with the strong smell of blood and stench on his body, Yin Xuege understood what had happened to him.
The body tempering methods inherited by the Yin family, whether it is Yin Feng Step or Yin Feng Palm, they will not temper the congenital dirt in the body when the body breaks through the limit of strength again and again and continuously improves the strength.
Or it may have a tempering effect, but this tempering is not complete.
It was not until Yin Xuege was at this level that he reached the edge of breakthrough, and the innate dirt in his body was forcibly pushed together by the huge physical force and expelled from the body at once.
Completely remove all dirt and toxins from the innate body. Remove the dirt and toxins contained in a large amount of food taken the day after tomorrow.
At this point, the Yin Family's Yin Feng Steps and Yin Feng Palm are no longer very effective. They can only rely on the cultivators themselves, overloading their bodies, constantly replenishing Gu Yuan Dan, and relying on arduous training to forcefully
Break through the last hurdle.
From this point of view, the ancestral foundation method of the Yin family is indeed not very clever.
He shook his head. He walked to the well in the corner of the martial arts arena, picked up a few buckets of well water, and washed away the thick layer of dirt on his body.
After the dirt was removed, Yin Xuuge felt light and comfortable all over, as if her body had lost several kilograms.
Especially the bones in the body. It seems that they have changed from solid stones to hollow bamboo joints. There is a clear and airy charm slowly flowing through the whole body.
"That's fine. It's just a problem with the technique, not a problem with the body."
Muttering to himself, Yin Xuuge took another Gu Yuan Dan, and then firmly clasped his hands on the bark of the old poplar tree.
After practicing for seven consecutive days with the help of the old poplar tree, the old poplar tree's own root veins have become several times larger than before under the stimulation of his strange skills. It can absorb more than ten times the amount of sunlight, rain, dew, and various fertilizers every day.
.
In the past few days, Yin Xuege had been sucking the green life out of his body, but not only did the old poplar tree not show signs of fatigue, but its branches and leaves became more luxuriant, and its vitality more than doubled.
This wonderful method is originally a mutually beneficial method.
Yin Xuege enlightened the old poplar tree, and at the same time received precious feedback from the old poplar tree.
The green energy is long and continuous, supported by the huge medicinal power of Guyuan Dan, and continues to flow into Yin Xuuge's body.
Layers of black and red dirt kept coming out of his body, and each time a layer accumulated, it was washed away.
Yin Xuuge's body gradually lost weight, becoming a bit thinner than usual.
But his strength is getting stronger, his eyes are getting brighter, and his spirit is getting better and better.
Three days later, he already had the strength of ninety-nine pounds and nine thousand nine hundred and eighty kilograms.
The dirt and toxins brought in from his body were completely washed away. The toxins stored in him after taking a large amount of grains, rice, meat, and various elixirs were almost completely washed away by the wash of green energy.
Finally, Yin Xuuge's body trembled slightly, and he took a deep breath. Ten strands of green energy seeped from his fingers that were tightly clasped on the bark of the old poplar tree, and quickly circulated around his body.
Wherever the green energy passes, the muscles that have lost weight in the past few days quickly become plump and plump, and gradually become shiny and attractive.
Muscles, meridians, and bones buzzed at the same time, and huge strength burst out from the body. On the martial arts field, the white sand grains near both feet were shaken and flew several feet away. The skin all over the body instantly turned red, and the blood energy suddenly surged.
Let the skin change color, and then the blood energy quickly returns to the internal organs, and the skin color returns to normal, becoming white and shiny. The light black color of the past is gone.
"Master, you can consider selling yourself."
