Chapter 48 Changes (Thanks to the Water Meter Reader)

"Entry, mastery, minor success, major success, before internal strength, blood and qi only have these four steps, blood and qi are major success, six harmonies are connected, you can read the fundamental diagram, and break through to internal strength."

In the hut, Li Yuan stood with a hammer, and once again felt the difficulty of learning martial arts.

He was a 'newcomer in the forging shop' who had shown his talent and was favored by some people, but even so, it took him eight months to know the existence of the fundamental diagram because of an accident.

If it were other apprentices, would they have the hope of getting in touch with this fundamental diagram in this life?

They had never even heard of it!

"According to the second shopkeeper, if the hammer method is perfect, there is no need for the fundamental diagram. If it is great perfection, then you are qualified to draw a fundamental diagram for a martial art?

With the blessing of the master craftsman's hammer, maybe after my blood and qi are major success and six harmonies are connected, I don't need the fundamental diagram, and I can break through internal strength?"

Li Yuan digested it for a long time, and was relieved after he was sure that he had remembered everything he saw today.

"The second shopkeeper is so eager to leave, and he wants to take Fatty Sun with him. It doesn't seem like he is going to heal his wounds, but more like he is going to seek refuge? The scroll of the fundamental map should not be taken away, right?"

Li Yuan was very jealous of the scroll of the fundamental map.

Although it was only of the first level, he felt that it should be the best of the first level, second only to the second-level weapon, the hammer of the master craftsman.

But he was also thinking about the possible consequences of Tang Tong's departure.

He killed Nian Jiu with his own hammer, so he naturally didn't believe the statement of 'Nian Jiu' on the notice of the county government, and with the knife wounds he saw in the house before, he could naturally guess a lot of things.

"I'm afraid that these families who left the city this time have connections in secret, even those ghostwriters... This has nothing to do with me, but the second shopkeeper's departure..."

Li Yuan's heart tightened slightly.

If Cao Yan doesn't care about things and Tang Tong leaves, then the big and small things in this shop may not be decided by Wang Ding, which is not a good thing for him.

Even the head of the middle court had to be taken care of by someone, and he couldn't live in this house for a few days.

"No wonder the second shopkeeper made an exception and let us see the basic map before he left..."

Li Yuan sighed in his heart, this is really a wave of calm, another wave of ups and downs.

Li Daoye, who only wanted to practice martial arts, felt a little annoyed, but helpless, this world is often like this, the struggle between big forces often affects innocent people.

"I hope you don't force me..."

Adjusting his breathing method, Li Yuan felt a little cold in his heart. After this trip to Fajiu Mountain, his mentality has changed slightly.

With a sharp weapon in hand, the desire to kill arises?

Shaking his head, Li Yuan put down the hammer, stood in a soldier's posture, and continued to digest the medicinal power of the Leopard Embryo Yijin Pill,

and tempered his blood, and soon immersed himself in it again.

Compared with this kind of goal-oriented and tangible progress and improvement, other things seem insignificant.

…

In the next few days, there were a lot of changes in the forging shop. Several managers were transferred to the mines, and the apprentices of each courtyard were also disrupted and reallocated to the courtyards.

A new manager came to the middle courtyard. His surname was Zhong. He was also fat and had good skills. He took over the job calmly. Among the apprentices in the middle courtyard, except Liu Qing, his previous roommates were no longer there.

The only two things that have not changed for the time being, besides the inner courtyard, are the forging room.

Zhang Ben did not feel the change at all. He still inspected the forging room every day. He came to check Li Yuan's progress every two days and taught him some forging skills, as well as the characteristics and origins of many ores.

Li Yuan was very serious and busy.

He got up before dawn every day to stand in a stance, went to the forging room to forge iron at dawn, and came back in the evening to practice military posture. In just four days, the effect of this Leopard Embryo Yijin Pill was completely digested by him.

The blood and qi have reached the hips and knees, and even the soles of the feet. It is not far from connecting the Yongquan.

"You get what you pay for. This Leopard Embryo Muscle-Replenishing Pill is so effective. If I take another one, maybe my blood and energy will be fully developed?"

In the drizzle, Li Yuan slowly stopped. There were not many opportunities to practice hammering in the rain, and he would not waste it whenever it rained.

"Continuous medication may damage the internal organs, especially strong medicine, health-promoting soup, and blood-replenishing pills. With my current physique, I should be able to take them continuously."

After taking a blood-replenishing pill, Li Yuan dried his body and changed into a gray shorts. Seeing that the weather had cleared up, he picked up several bags in the house and prepared to leave.

Without Fatty Sun, he was not qualified to live in an independent courtyard. He had to move today. This was the rule of the forging shop.

What status means what treatment.

Fortunately, he had no family background at all, and the important things were all stuffed in the Liuhe boots.

"I almost forgot about you!"

As soon as he left the house, Li Yuan turned around again and picked up the little field mouse tied in the corner. After seeing that nothing was left out, he went out with a 'squeak' sound.

"Brother Li, you got up so early, where are you going?"

When passing by the forging room, Li Yuan saw Wang Gong dressed neatly, holding a thick-backed broadsword, as if practicing martial arts, and greeted him.

"Going home."

Li Yuan replied.

In the past few days, Wang Gong's blood and qi have increased a lot, and the whole person is radiant, as if he has taken some tonic pills, and it seems that his martial arts have improved a lot.

"Oh?"

Glancing at the bag that Li Yuan was carrying, Wang Gong naturally understood, but he didn't say anything, just nodded, and practiced martial arts by himself.

Li Yuan could naturally feel his attitude change, but except for sighing that this kid was too naive, he really didn't feel anything.

"Humph!"

Glancing at Li Yuan's retreating back, Wang Gong raised his sword and looked unhappy: "So what if you have good talent, but you are middle-aged and have no family background, yet you are so arrogant!"

After several attempts to woo him, Wang Gong was naturally dissatisfied, but what really made him show it was Tang Tong's departure.

He died seriously injured, and everyone in the inner courtyard was replaced. What did this mean? How could he not understand?

Zhao Xiaoming came over with a spear and saw Li Yuan's back:

"Brother Gong, in a few days, Miss Lu will have a small gathering, will you still invite him to join us?"

"No need."

Wang Gong sheathed his sword and walked quickly towards the inner courtyard:

"If Tang Tong is not here, he may not be able to keep his place in the Shenbing Valley assessment, so why should we care about him?"

…

"Sun Hao is not here, so am I not here either? It's just a courtyard, so what if we live in it? Is there such a room missing in the shop?"

Zhang Ben slapped the table, furious. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to go to the backyard to find Cao Yan. Li Yuan hurriedly stopped him.

"My second brother's house has two floors. It has many rooms and is spacious. This disciple has long wanted to move out. Before, I was reluctant to let Fatty Sun cook two small meals a day.

Now that Xiaozao is gone, it would be better to move back. "

Li Yuan comforted.

A few months ago, he had taken over the entire small courtyard of his second brother for four taels of silver a year, and now he could certainly afford it.

"Damn Nian Jiu! If he hadn't hurt Old Tang, how could this mess have happened?"

Lao Zhangtou was still angry and slapped the table hatefully.

Does the master not know the inside story?

This thought swirled in his mind, and Li Yuan comforted him: "Ji people have their own destiny. If the second shopkeeper goes far away to seek medical treatment, he will be fine."

"Zhelong Mansion has a good medical clinic, I think everything will be fine."

Zhang Ben felt relieved and glanced at his disciple again:

"Good people have their own destiny? Well, I have read the book in vain. The old man can't say this."

He was very unhappy that Li Yuan wasted an hour every day studying.

"By the way, Master, next spring, the gate of Shenbing Valley will be opened?"

Li Yuan asked, recalling Wang Gong's previous attitude.

"I asked the big shopkeeper yesterday. You are confirmed, so don't worry about it. However, there may be some changes in the quotas of the other people."

Zhang Bi picked up the tea and took a sip.

"Then you always rest."

Li Yuan said goodbye knowingly and went to the street to buy some cooked meat, chickens and ducks, etc., and then walked towards Chai Yu Fang.

After the ice broke in early spring, Chaiyu Fang became lively again, but I never heard of anyone catching a spirit fish. Liang Ashui, who was famous last year, has not been seen for several months.

Li Yuan bought two more fresh live fish along the way, and saw a big man who was more than two meters tall and looked like a bear, also buying fish.

"Qin Xiong is transferred back now?"

Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, sighing in his heart that the servant left the tea to cool down. He was not too surprised and turned around to leave.

After walking around Fajiu Mountain, he felt more than just his pockets.

Including courage.
