Chapter 36: The First Medicinal Bath
In the small courtyard, the young man with handsome features stretched his movements, and his body posture changed back and forth in different postures, condensing the energy and blood in his chest.
Qi and blood are as thick as two fingers running parallel to each other. As Xie Yuan's body turns, it continues to swim around his body, strengthening his skin bit by bit.
Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. As an invisible boundary was broken, Xie Yuan felt the power of blood reverberating on his skin. He clearly felt that the toughness of his skin had risen to a higher level again.
Now his skin can be easily scratched by blunt scissors. It is like a natural layer of leather armor with amazing defense.
Underneath the tough skin was considerable strength. Xie Yuan's strength increased again. He could now lift and swing a thin bamboo pole like Wang Ergou with one hand.
“Huh.”
Xie Yuan slowly finished his work and was very satisfied with the improvement of his condition.
He took out the ax and swung it easily. With a slight whistling, the ax cut off a branch of the log on the ground.
“With this ax, I think no one among the warriors can take a hit from me!”
Xie Yuan held the ax and felt a little heroic in his heart.
But no matter how invincible a hero is among warriors, he still has to chop wood when he should.
At the foot is a complete nanmu tree. It was cut down by the logging team from the position marked by Xie Yuan. Four people carried it out of the mountain on their shoulders. It only took two and a half days in total.
Get it at home and it will be much easier to deal with.
Xie Yuan has experience and also has the customization requirements of Boss Wan, a timber merchant in Panlong Town. Even if it is such precious wood, it only takes two or three days to get it all.
At that time, another ten taels of silver were credited to the account, and the bulk of it was his.
This efficiency is much higher than working alone.
Silver is equal to medicinal soup and food, and these are equal to one's own strength and the confidence to stand up.
Xie Yuan was full of energy, and with axe after axe, he gradually removed the miscellaneous branches of the nanmu and took its prototype.
Three days later.
Xie Yuan loaded all the processed nanmu onto the donkey cart, clapped his hands, and then his eyes were slightly out of focus.
[Chopping firewood: (1984/10000)
[Iron cloth shirt·Third layer: (96/1000)]
[Health-preserving skill·Second layer: (1228/2000)]
Although he mainly dealt with wood in the past three days, he did not delay in practicing.
After all, after he brought the wood to the yard, it was just cutting and chopping, which was easy for him, and he still had a lot of time left for practicing every day.
The real knife-sharpener does not miss the woodcutter... No, the woodchopping does not miss the knife-sharpener.
Practicing martial arts is to sharpen yourself into a sharp knife.
In three days, my state has stabilized at the "cowhide" level, and my energy and blood are still growing.
Although the progress of Neixi is not that fast, it is still advancing steadily, constantly laying a solid foundation and increasing its strength.
"It's not too much to say that I can look forward to the future."
Xie Yuan's internal and external training went smoothly, and he was satisfied. He shook his donkey whip and walked to Panlong Town.
"Hey, hey, this way, this way... Damn! What a stubborn donkey."
But obviously, Xie Yuan is still a novice on the donkey cart.
Donkey carts can hold more cargo, and transporting wood to Panlong Town will definitely be the norm in the future, so he bought his first car in his life.
He didn't have any cash on hand, but with his current reputation, it wouldn't be difficult to borrow money from the village on credit for two days.
After finally driving the donkey cart to Boss Wan’s house in Panlong Town, Xie Yuan felt that he was more tired than practicing martial arts.
Wiping his sweat, Xie Yuan smiled at Boss Wan who walked to the door and said:
"Boss Wan, how much do you think this car of nanmu is worth?"
Boss Wan's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked the waiter to unload his things, and invited Xie Yuan to sit in the room to make tea.
After a while, the old carpenter came into the house again, holding a large silver ingot worth twelve taels and two taels of broken silver:
"The quality is better than last time! Thank you, brother, twelve taels of silver. How about it?”
“The boss is so generous!”
This money is really easy to make.
I only have to wait in the yard for the logs to be cut and chopped, instead of having to work alone from beginning to end, the quality of the final product is naturally much better.
Twelve taels of silver, one tael for each of the four of them, is definitely a generous reward, but not painful.
He weighed it for a long time before settling on this ratio. It won’t be too much, not too little, and can be fine-tuned in the future.
Xie Yuan needs a long-term and stable team to assist him, so he is willing to invest.
Management is a science, and this is just the beginning.
Xie Yuan shook his head. These are not the key points. The key point is martial arts.
After the distribution, there were eight taels left to buy donkey carts, meat and rice. The remaining money...
His eyes flashed, it was enough for a medicinal bath.
Now I have reached the third level of Iron Cloth Shirt. Although my cultivation speed is still astonishingly fast compared to others, if I want to quickly become a warrior, these powerful auxiliary means are indispensable.
Anyway, I just made money now, so it’s better to hit the right time than to hit it, so let’s try it today!
Xie Yuan went directly towards the Iron Clothes Gate.
Enter the door, bypass the martial arts arena, and walk toward the pharmacy.
"Senior brother, I want a basic medicinal bath."
"Five taels of silver."
The disciple in the green robe and mask inside said lightly, and then I saw a large silver ingot handed to me on the counter.
He glanced at Xie Yuan, accepted the silver ingot, retrieved five taels, then gave him a wooden sign and said:
"Go to the bathroom and wait, someone will prepare it for you soon."
The service is quite good. As expected, no matter where you go, money is the best thing to use...
Xie Yuan muttered to himself. He went to the back room dedicated to medicinal baths in the bathroom and found the room "Ding 4" corresponding to the wooden sign. , I feel like this scene seems familiar.
There are still cards in hand.
Not long after, a boy came back and forth with a large basin of thick black liquid to fill the empty wooden barrel. He went back and forth several times, quickly filled the barrel, and then said to Xie Yuan with a smile:
"This is Senior brother, it may be a little painful at first, but it will feel better after a while, please.”
Xie Yuan was silent for a moment, then took off his clothes and hung them up, and stepped into the big wooden barrel. inside.
"Hiss, the water is quite hot and comfortable! Doesn't it hurt?"
"The basic power of this medicine is just not good... Well, why is it getting hotter and hotter?"
< br>
"Something's wrong, it's not that the water is scalding, it's that I'm having a fever! Damn, this medicine is strong enough!"
"It feels good!"
"Fuck!"
Xie Yuan couldn't help but scream. When he made a sound, a numbing, hot, tingling and itching sensation spread from his skin to his brain, making him feel both comfortable and uncomfortable at the same time. He wanted to jump out of the barrel!
But under the immersion in such medicinal liquid, the skin is obviously strengthening at an accelerated speed, and the feeling is very obvious. No, no need to feel...
[Iron Shirt·Third Level: (96/1000)]
97...98...99...
The progress numbers in front of you are beating slowly but visibly to the naked eye. It is much more efficient than practicing Qigong!
Looking at the constantly beating numbers, Xie Yuan felt as if he had been injected with chicken blood. He endured the stinging of his skin and his face turned red as he sat quietly in the bucket.
At this moment, voices of greeting kept coming from outside the bathroom. It seemed that a senior senior brother had arrived and quickly approached the inside.
"So many people greetings? It seems that at least he is a core disciple, and he is ranked high."
Xie Yuan distracted his attention, but found that the footsteps were getting closer and closer, and he walked straight to the door of his own room.
As soon as the door curtain was lifted, a sturdy disciple with an arrogant expression walked in. He saw Xie Yuan and said lightly:
"Junior brother Xie, come out. I have something to see you for."
< br>Xie Yuan slowly frowned as he looked at the unkind core disciples and Xu Yang, the medicine jar standing outside.
