Chapter 24 Shishi River, Golden Scale Fish
Qin Jiang was startled when he heard this, "Take off your clothes?"
Wang Minglang took a puff from the big pipe, blew out a cloud of white smoke, and grinned. He stood up and said, "Young man still cares about this? There are no outsiders, so what are you afraid of, just the two of us?"
Qin Jiang's eyes moved back and forth, and he nodded with some confusion, "That's okay."
< br>After that, I started to take off my clothes directly.
"Hey, hey, are you really taking it off? I'm just kidding, just take off your upper body. The medicinal bath is for your arms, not your legs." Wang Minglang quickly raised his hand to stop him.
Suck——!
Qin Jiang took a deep breath, silently took off his upper body clothes, and jumped directly into the copper vat.
"Hey, do you think I'm smart? I knew from the beginning that I had to use a copper vat. If I changed it to a porcelain vat, I would have been trampled to pieces countless times!"
Wang Minglang's mouth Holding a big smoking gun in his mouth, he used a long pipe to draw water from the sink into a copper vat.
After a while, the water in the copper vat had covered Qin Jiang's shoulders, leaving only his head exposed.
No longer pouring water, Wang Minglang walked to the shelf on the left, grabbed a few herbs, walked to the right, picked up the mortar and started pounding the medicine.
After a while, several herbs were pounded into paste. He walked to the copper vat with a mortar and said, "Raise your arms."
Qin Jiang raised his arms, and he grabbed them directly The medicinal paste was smeared on Qin Jiang's arms. In just a few seconds, the paste formed a soft shell on his arms.
"Okay, let it go." He said.
When his arms were submerged in the water, a chemical reaction suddenly seemed to occur, and the body temperature of his arms rose rapidly.
Wang Minglang walked aside, took out a porcelain bottle from the secret compartment, walked to the copper vat and poured water into it. It was a yellow liquid.
In an instant, a layer of yellow mist evaporated along with a pungent smell. At the same time, the clear water was quickly dyed light yellow, and the heat in both arms quickly rose and became hot. .
Not idle, Wang Minglang walked to the medicine shelf and pressed a button.
Huh~~!
A rushing sound of wind appeared under the copper cylinder, and flames burned in the blink of an eye.
At this time, Qin Jiang discovered that there was a fire tunnel under the copper cylinder.
The water temperature in the copper vat gradually increased. Wang Minglang picked up a few fresh herbs from the medicine shelf and came to the copper vat.
“After completing the first level, you should have felt the presence of inner energy. In the next few hours, you must try your best to control the inner energy in your body to stay in your arms.”< br>
Hearing this, Qin Jiang closed his eyes and controlled the internal energy in his body to flow into his arms. The hot feeling became more intense as the temperature of the water in the copper cylinder rose.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and as time continued to pass, Wang Minglang threw individual herbs into the copper vat from time to time.
I don’t know how long it took, but Qin Jiang could no longer sense the change of time. He could only feel his arms gradually becoming hot, and in the end he even felt like he was being roasted.
After a long time, it became dark outside the window, and Wang Minglang wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He looked at Qin Jiang, this was Qin Jiang. If it were anyone else, he would not be so dedicated.
Otherwise, there would be nothing else to do day by day.
After a moment, Qin Jiang opened his eyes, and a faint light flashed away.
He looked into the copper tank. The originally light yellow water had turned into dark green, and the burning feeling in his arms had disappeared, replaced by a warm and cool feeling.
"Okay, come out, I have something to tell you." Wang Minglang sat on a stool nearby, crossing his legs and smoking a big pipe.
Qin Jiang jumped out of the copper vat, activated the internal air to evaporate the water, and put on his clothes, "What's the matter?"
Suck~
Wang Minglang took a puff of the pipe and slowly exhaled, "I saw what happened last night."
Qin Jiang's eyes changed slightly when he heard this, "Did you see it?"
Wang Minglang smiled slightly Nodding, "Well, your experience is still a bit lacking. I've taken care of it for you. If something like this happens again in the future, you don't have to hide it from me.
By the way, these three words, Jinyu Pavilion, you Just pretend that you have never seen it before, and no one will tell you that you don’t know.”
Qin Jiang nodded slightly, “I understand.”
Wang Minglang smiled happily, "Okay, let's go back."
Out of Wang Minglang's yard, Qin Jiang looked back, turned and left silently.
On the way back to Shanmanlou, he looked at the panel,
[Current Martial Arts]
The Five Qigong of Immortality (First Floor) (9/250)
Iron Arm Fist (First Level) (65/200)
Earth Dragon Body (First Level) (3/200)
[Potential Points: 6.1]
The jade pendant has absorbed some more potential points, and the experience value of Iron Arm Fist has increased by 50. The effect of the medicinal bath can be said to be very outstanding. Calculating this, it saves at least seven days of hard work.
"Brother Jiang~Brother Jiang~"
In the distance, a shout came, and across the street, Li Bo waved his arms and walked quickly.
“Haha, I calculated that the time was almost up, and sure enough it turned out!” He said with a smile.
Qin Jiang suddenly remembered what Li Bo said about hard food during the day.
Li Bo straightened his clothes and said, "Let's go, Brother Jiang? The dishes are already being prepared."
Qin Jiang nodded, "Well, I'm just hungry."
When the two came to Shanman Building, Li Lang was already waiting outside the building. After seeing the two of them, he waved quickly, "Brother, Brother Qin , you are here."
Li Bo nodded and looked at Qin Jiang, "Xiaolang was a little reckless that day, let him make amends to you tonight."
Qin Jiang smiled. , "You're welcome."
Entering Shanmanlou, the three of them walked up to the second floor. Li Lang called the waiter, "You can come on."
The waiter wiped the table and responded, looking a little surprised at Qin Jiang who was being escorted up to the second floor. He didn't expect that the distinguished guest Mr. Li mentioned was Qin Jiang.
Up to the second floor, the three of them walked into a private room. The aroma of various dishes made Qin Jiang's index finger twitch.
Qin Jiang looked at the dishes on the table. There were a total of sixteen dishes, a combination of meat and vegetables, complete in color and aroma.
This table alone is worth three taels of silver! It's more valuable than his jade pendant.
The three of them sat down, and Li Bo raised his hand slightly, "Brother Jiang, please try it. This Shanmanlou chef was originally the chef of a restaurant in the inner city. Later, he owed money while gambling and was beaten. I broke my leg and ended up in the outer city.”
As he said that, he looked at Li Lang and said, "Go and urge him."
Li Lang nodded slightly, stood up and left.
Qin Jiang was not polite. He picked up the slices of meat and ate them. It was salty and spicy in the mouth.
After a while, Li Lang walked in with a plate and placed it on the table. It was a carp with golden scales all over its body.
"Brother Jiang, this is a golden-scaled fish, a rare species in Shishi River. On weekdays, this one costs ten taels of silver! I heard it is good for the body, please give it a try. "Li Bo smiled.
He got this from the inner city through his connections, and it cost him more than ten taels of silver.
Qin Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly. The Shishi River was the fishing river when Black Mountain City was still a fishing village. It ran across the east and west of the city and passed through the inner city.
It seems to be a source of the Canglang River, the largest river in Qianzhou.
The golden-scaled fish is a specialty of Shishi River. It is said that it was once sent to the royal capital as a tribute.
Pick up a piece of fish and put it into your mouth. It is smooth and tender, full of flavor, and perfectly retains the original aroma of the ingredients.
This chef’s skills are amazing!
After eating fish, a warm current flows from the stomach into the limbs. This feeling is like being massaged.
He looked at the panel and saw that the experience points of the three martial arts had increased a bit, especially the Five Qigong of Immortality, which had increased by 4 points.
His eyes were surprised. It seemed that if he had time, he could go for a walk in the Shishi River. It would also be good to improve the food occasionally.
“It tastes good, you should try it too.”
Ten days later, in the backyard of Shanmanlou, Qin Jiang wiped off the sweat from his upper body and applied the secret arm-cleansing medicine on his arms.
"Master Qin, your food is ready. I've put this here for you." The boy in the building put the dish on the table in the yard flatteringly.
Ever since that night, the owner of Shanmanlou knew that Qin Jiang was someone that Li Bo would treat with courtesy, so he built a separate area in the backyard with wooden boards and used it as a martial arts training ground for Qin Jiang. .
On the one hand, Li Bo is already considered a big shot to the owners of Shanmanlou, so there is no need to say more about Qin Jiang.
On the other hand, I am also afraid that some drunken diners will not look at Mr. Qin.
Those who can come to Shanmanlou to eat are basically rich and powerful owners from the outer city. It is not a good thing to offend any of them.
"Okay, trouble." Qin Jiang smiled.
"No trouble, no trouble, please eat well, I will come back later to collect the plates." The boy bent slightly, exited through the wooden door opened in the wall, and closed the wooden door behind him.
Qin Jiang walked to the table and sat down, looking at the panel,
[Current Martial Arts]
Five Qigong of Immortality (First Level) (20/250)
Iron Arm Fist (First Level) (199/200)
Earth Dragon Body (First Level) (10/200 )
[Potential point: 6.8]
