Dayu County, East City.

“Scar, this is the protection fee this time.”

Lu Yuan carried the back basket, took out six hundred dollars from his arms, and honestly handed it to a man with a scar on his face in front of him.

This is the new leader sent by the black wolf gang in the city to replace the dead Biao Ye and collect protection fees.

Scar’s temperament looks a little fierce, I heard that he was the strongman who cut the path in the early years, and then somehow, he joined the Black Wolf Gang and was a famous thug in the gang. Since Biao

Ye was killed on the street last year, the Black Wolf Gang has strengthened its manpower to collect protection fees.

At this time, behind Biao Ye, six men dressed in black, all with a short knife pinned to their waist, flashed with cold light in the sun, which was daunting.

“Yes, you are much smarter than the others, and you didn’t play any tricks.”

Scar Ye walked next to Lu Yuan, opened the back basket and flipped it twice, and soon had a rough estimate of the things inside, and the protection fee paid was exactly three percent, and he couldn’t help nodding with satisfaction: “Honestly pay the money, hello and I am good.”

“You said so.” Lu Yuan laughed pleasantly.

Scar patted him on the shoulder, took the money and left with a few of his men.

When pedestrians on the road saw this group of murderers, they all avoided in fear, and a passage was cleared on the street.

“A bunch of vampires.”

Looking at their distant backs, Lu Yuan snorted in his heart.

Every time I enter the city, I have to be pulled by these vampires, and my hard-earned gains for months are sucked out of thin air, and anyone will feel distressed in their hearts.

That’s all hard-earned money.

Especially now that he has begun to practice martial arts, the consumption of various expenses has increased sharply, which is even more heartache.

As for not handing over?

Although he has begun to practice martial arts, and even the palm method has been completed, his combat power is stronger than before.

But Lu Yuan knows that his current strength is still not the opponent’s opponent.

At the beginning, that Ma Jiqing, that was even practiced internal strength, flying cornices walking on the wall like walking on the ground.

But that kind of strongman, in the face of the pursuit and killing of the Black Wolf Gang, was not seriously injured in the end, and fled into Lantau Island in a hurry, and finally died in his own hands.

“Ma Jiqing is at least a person who has practiced two meridians, and he is enough to be a third-rate strength in the rivers and lakes. He all failed miserably in the hands of the Black Wolf Gang, I haven’t even trained my internal strength now, my strength is not at all, and fighting with the Black Wolf Gang is definitely seeking his own death.

For his own strength, Lu Yuan has always been very pressing.

Therefore, even if he was very unhappy with these exploitations in his heart, he still endured it for the sake of his small life.

The current humiliation is only temporary, and when your own strength is enough, that is when there is a hatred and a wrongful calculation.

“But according to the current progress, when I become a master, it may be thirty or fifty years later, and this Scar Master and the Black Wolf Gang are still there at that time, it is all a problem?”

Lu Yuan suddenly thought of this question, but quickly shook his head: “No matter, when these people die, I will find their sons and grandsons.” It is reasonable for the ancestors to provoke the hatred of the children and grandchildren. ”

……

Having made a note of this account in his heart, Lu Yuan turned around and walked into the Sitong Commercial Bank. After

bargaining with Liu Pickpocket in the business house for a while, he sold the skin he brought with him, and after three months’ harvest, he finally got two or five dollars of silver.

Leaving the business house with his newly arrived silver, he turned around and entered a medical center next door.

“Doctor Zhou, follow this prescription and grab some medicinal herbs for me.”

As usual, Lu Yuan took out a prescription and handed it to Doctor Zhou, who was settling the account behind the counter.

Dr. Zhou’s name is Zhou Ze, he is about thirty years old, he has a short beard on his chin, and he looks like a scholar. This Zhou family

medicine store is the main business of Dr. Zhou, and his family has opened a medical hall here for generations, and it is rumored that it has been for a hundred years.

Since Lu Yuan practiced martial arts, he basically entered the city once a month, and usually came here to buy medicine, which was regarded as a frequent visitor.

After half a year, the two sides have become very familiar.

Zhou Ze took the prescription, looked at the ratio inside, and frowned slightly: “Different from the previous prescription, these are all medicinal materials that replenish lean blood and regulate internal qi, are you hurting your lungs?”

For this familiar customer to buy medicine and practice martial arts, Zhou Ze knows a little about it.

At this time, seeing the change of the prescription, with rich experience, after judging the specific effect of the new prescription, I subconsciously thought that the other party had made a mistake in martial arts, so I bought medicine to recuperate.

“No, I just felt that the previous practice was not right, so I changed the practice this time.” Lu Yuan had thought of an excuse long before he came, and said it according to the preparation at this time.

Zhou Ze frowned: “Although you will not hurt your body if you eat these medicinal materials, the dosage is too much, and there will always be some burden on the body.” And the human body is exquisite, you toss randomly, it is easy to get sick.

Listen to my advice, the rivers and lakes are not so easy to mix, and martial arts are not so easy to practice.

Fight and kill, accidentally lose your life.

Instead of extravagant hopes for these unrealistic exercises, it is better to save money, marry a daughter-in-law, and live a peaceful life. Dr.

Zhou is worthy of being a healer’s benevolence, and although he is facing customers who come to buy medicine, he is still more concerned about the other party’s body for business.

Lu Yuan shook his head and smiled: “It’s okay, I’m measured.”

Zhou Ze sighed: “Forget it, your own affairs, you know it yourself.” I say so much and do more. Wait, I’ll go grab medicine for you.

Turning around, the person began to go to the various medicine cabinets and grab the medicine according to the prescription.

This is a good doctor and a good person.

Looking at the busy figure of the other party, Lu Yuan thought like this in his heart, and his thoughts couldn’t help but fly.

Dayu County is a small place, and there is only one medical center in the city. Therefore, if I want to buy medicinal materials to practice martial arts, I can only come here.

Fortunately, Dr. Zhou is a doctor, and with this ancestral profession, he has a whole county of patients to support, and his income is rich, so he does not have to worry about his livelihood.

Therefore, for practicing martial arts, fighting and killing, which is both hard and dangerous, people simply do not look at it.

After several tentative contacts, Lu Yuan was already at ease with this Zhou doctor, and no longer worried about the other party’s covetousness of his martial arts secrets.

Later, he even simply admitted that he was buying medicine and practicing martial arts.

Anyway, what he gave was only a prescription, not a secret code, relying on medicinal materials alone, at most, he could infer that he was practicing martial arts.

But what is practiced, outsiders are not clear at all, there is no worry of leakage at all.

“After all, what a hunter has been honing blindly, who will pay attention to it, may just laugh it off.” Lu Yuan thought so in his heart.

A hunter who changes his identity and fate like practicing martial arts will not be strange in the eyes of everyone.

Perhaps the only strange thing is that this hunter has not trained himself to death.

While thinking wildly, Zhou Ze had already grabbed the medicine, grabbed a few large bags and put them in front of the counter, dialed the abacus twice: “Give, according to the old rules, the amount of one month, bear five two two dollars of silver.”

“It’s expensive.”

Hearing this price, the corner of Lu Yuan’s mouth twitched, and while reaching out to take out the money in his arms, he said, “Can’t it be cheaper?”

Zhou Ze glanced at him and said with a smile: “The small shop is small, and it is not on credit.” If the guest is too expensive, it is better to stop practicing martial arts, so that this expenditure is less, and there is no need to say that it is expensive.

Well, when Doctor Zhou arrived at this time, he was still worried that Lu Yuan had trained himself to death, and turned around to persuade.

Lu Yuan instantly shut up. Honestly take out the money, the two two or five dollars of silver

that just arrived today has not yet covered the heat, and it will be given away in an instant, and it will be plastered with two two or seven dollars of silver.

“Practicing martial arts is really a costly thing!”

Putting the medicinal herbs into the back basket, Lu Yuan walked out of the medicine shop and looked at the dazzling sunlight outside, and the red sun, in his eyes, seemed to become a big copper coin.

The deposit is much less, and the wallet is even more deflated.

He walked farther and farther on the road of poverty, as if he could see the day when he lost his family wealth and lived on the streets in order to practice martial arts.

“No, the money is gone, the house is sold, I can go back to live in the mountains, and the cave will not end up on the streets.” Lu Yuan quickly shook his head, and then walked towards the city gate.

In order not to let the day come when he ruined his family, he now does not even go to the regular restaurant in the city, just thinking of saving more money.

As for what to do if you are hungry?

The back basket has its own bacon rice balls prepared in the morning, which are much cheaper than the ones outside.

……

The county seat was quite far away from Yangmei Town, a full seventy miles away, and it was close to dusk when Lu Yuan rushed back.

When he returned home, he put the medicinal herbs in his bedroom, dug a dark room under his bed, and put them away with the silver he carried.

These were bought for five taels of silver by themselves, and the gold was very expensive, but they could not be stolen.

Locking the small gold cabinet, Lu Yuan went to the kitchen, stewed as usual, put the rice and meat in place, and cooked today’s dinner. While there was

still some time left to cook, he came to the courtyard and started a trick of the water and practiced the palm technique.

After a set, the work is closed, and the person is already sweating.

After taking a few buckets of water and taking a shower, and then eating dinner, Lu Yuan returned to the bedroom bed, but did not sleep, but sat cross-kneeled, his mind sank into his body, and began to feel in his depths.

“The so-called internal force, according to the book, is the fusion of man’s divine soul and the essence and blood in the body. This thing is illusory, seems to be true and false, has no substance, but can be sensed by life.

Therefore, some people call it gas. The

combination of soul and blood is qi, and spirit and spirit are the three treasures of the human body. Therefore, those who practice internal strength will be strong and mentally strong if their internal strength increases, and those who have weak internal strength will be weak and weak.

Therefore, in the martial arts, after the internal strength is abolished, they will completely become a sick seedling, and it will not take long for them to die of a short life.

After some people lost their internal strength, their souls and blood were lost, and they were killed.

As for the general outline of the source of internal qi, Lu Yuan was already familiar with it. At this time, just thinking about it, that word and word jumped in my mind.

“Therefore, the focus of practicing internal qi is to use the divine soul to sense the flesh, so that the two resonate, achieve the changes of Xuanzhi and Xuan, and finally merge into qi.

And this method of sensing resonance is the inner strength heart method.

Lu Yuan recalled the mental method of Liuyun Palm, which he had already observed a thousand times, and he had already had his own experience of the various meanings and mysteries.

Now that you start induction, you don’t need to think about it at all, and you naturally sink in.

“The Heart Method of Flowing Cloud Palm is derived from the meaning of observing cloud water.

Therefore, this method is used to sense the essence blood in the body, and what is particular is the trend of moving clouds and flowing water.

Take the spirit as a cloud and scatter it everywhere in the body.

With the essence blood as the flow, the meridians rush everywhere.

When the clouds and mist and the flow of water are combined, the inner qi comes out, and the mental method is also introduced.

In the void, Lu Yuan emptied his mind and began to imagine his spiritual will as a cloud of mist.

The clouds gathered and dispersed, and as the wind of thought flowed, it began to travel through one’s body according to the route indicated in the mental method. And in the

body, after more than a year of nourishment, the essence blood has already been extremely thick, and at this time, as if guided by his own thoughts, it began to gurgle in the veins like a stream. The sound of blood circulation, the

touch of circulation, at this time, under the induction of the spiritual cloud, is so clear.

The scene that he could not experience appeared in his heart at this time.

It was as if there was a perspective mirror, reflecting the place where the blood of the cloud essence flowed in front of his eyes.

The inner vision mentioned in the heart method was entered by Lu Yuan at this time.

The blood continued to flow, and the clouds floated on them, following them in the meridians.

Gradually, some clouds and mist were driven by the bloodline, broke away from the void, entered the bloodline, and merged with the blood.

Boom.

It was like an explosion that only existed in the spirit, and a force that seemed to be illusory and invisible, but real and palpable, appeared between Lu Yuan’s meridians.

Internal qi, born.

After studying the mental method for a year, he finally cultivated his internal strength and introduced the mental method.

……

Three days later.

Yangmei Town, on the street.

Lu Yuan carried the basket on his back, took the knife and arrow, and prepared to go into the mountains to hunt.

Although the snow has fallen now, most of the animals in the mountains have hidden in their nests and are preparing to hibernate, and there are basically no wild beasts outside, which is not the season of hunting.

But although there are no beasts outside, there are still in the lair of the beasts.

“Originally, for the nests of those beasts, such as small animals such as hares and foxes, their burrows were too hidden to find.

While other jackals, tigers and leopards are large predators.

Their nests are easy to find, but these are all fierce, go to them to find trouble in the snow, who hunts who is not certain.

Lu Yuan thought in his heart as he walked: “But now that I have practiced internal qi, whether it is strength or speed, it is much stronger than before, and it can almost be said that my strength has doubled.”

Now I can probably win the tigers and bears on and off the list.

But for the sake of safety, these kings of the mountains still don’t go to find, pick a few leopards, wild wolves, and find these soft persimmons to pinch better.

After practicing internal strength, because internal qi is formed by the fusion of divine soul and essence blood, every time you refine internal qi, the consumption of your own essence blood becomes one point.

Therefore, in order to maintain this consumption, it is natural to find a way to make up for the loss of essence blood.

In reality, that is, Lu Yuan’s food intake instantly increased.

The previous amount of food could not satisfy him at all.

Nowadays, two or three pounds of meat and four or five pounds of rice for a meal are just commonplace.

Coupled with the wear and tear of various tonic herbs, the daily expenses continue to leak out like an unstoppable flood.

According to Lu Yuan’s conservative estimate, he needed at least ten taels of silver a month to barely cover his consumption.

In this case, of course, he wants to break his head and want to earn a few more incomes.

This does not.

Now in the big winter, people want to kill the beast’s den and earn some extra money.
