Chapter 37 Everyone has a bright future
It was exceptionally cold at the end of December.
Inside the cabin, large bathtubs four and a half feet high were placed side by side, separated by a screen in the middle. There was a cold wind outside the windows, and steaming hot air inside the windows.
The nose is filled with a strong medicinal aroma, a bitter taste accumulated over many years.
The reddish-brown liquid rose and fell under his body, and every pore opened up and relaxed. Liang Qu placed his arms on the edge of the bucket, and his tense muscles quickly relaxed.
This wooden barrel, which is specially used for bathing, is much more advanced than the rice jar in his house. There is a convex board in the middle for sitting down, and the edge of the barrel is even made into a fine tooth grid to prevent slipping.
The hot water quickly dispelled the coldness in the whole room, and it became warm as spring in an instant.
The swollen, bruised and even bloody wounds left by previous battles were irritating and painful when they first came into contact with hot water, but as the liquid penetrated, the color quickly faded, the wounds became hot, and the pain was significantly relieved. The effect was so obvious that even the wounds on the head were not so painful anymore.
Medicine and martial arts are inseparable, the martial arts hall's special healing medicine is indeed exquisite, they are just some common medicinal materials, far inferior to the lotus roots in water, but they can have such a therapeutic effect when combined!
Liang Qu leaned his neck against the edge of the wooden barrel, feeling so comfortable that he just wanted to sleep and didn't want to get up at all.
"Ashui, how did you do it?"
Chen Jiechang's voice came from behind the screen. After a while, he finally recovered and thought of the problem that Liang Qu was worried about.
After being reminded by Chen Jiechang, Li Libo also reacted: "Yes, yes, you can beat seven of them by yourself, it's amazing, how did you do it?"
"I am gifted. I won't panic even if there is a knife in front of me. I just need to find the right moment to strike."
It feels good to pretend to be cool, but you will end up in the crematorium afterwards.
Liang Qu didn't blush or feel nervous.
Chen Jiechang behind the screen suddenly realized: "That's it."
Li Libo sighed, "Brother Hu only said that you have a good foundation, but he certainly didn't expect that you are also talented. Ah Shui, no, Brother Shui, I don't ask you to lead me, I just hope that when I become rich in the future, I can go to Liang's house to be a gatekeeper and have three meals a day."
!!!
No, so you believe it?
Liang Qu, who was about to come up with a perfect excuse when he saw the Storm Organization's wording in his mind, was stunned.
It was as if he was about to throw a heavy punch, but the enemy dodged by sliding sideways and hit him on the back of the head with a hammer, and his mind went blank for an instant.
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang seemed to really think so.
If it's not a gifted talent, then what else could it be?
Liang Qu indeed has excellent bones, and everyone has verified it with their own eyes. Hu Qi said that he has been touching bones for so many years but has never felt such standard ape arms, bee waist, and mantis legs as Liang Qu, so this must be the case.
Without the bombardment of online novels and the information age, the two would not have so many concepts such as "grandfather", "system" and "golden finger" in their minds.
As expected, the folks from my hometown are simple and honest, and simplicity is the best.
Liang Qu felt relieved and lay back in the bucket.
Half an hour later.
The reddish-brown liquid became increasingly diluted and turned light red. According to Hu Qi, the medicinal effects had been completely absorbed during this period of time.
But the three of them had no intention of leaving. Most people would not have a bathtub specially prepared for bathing at home. They only had large tubs that were cheap and easy to use, but they were not as comfortable as this one. Especially when it was cold outside, they didn't want to come out.
They asked someone to add hot water twice, and they soaked for about an hour before getting up. Their skin was wrinkled, but they didn't feel cold at all after getting out. After drying themselves, they lay down on the bed. It felt so good.
"Look, there's cotton in the quilt!"
As soon as Li Libo lay down, he realized something was wrong. The bed was too soft. He reached out and touched it, only to find that it was a cotton quilt.
The south is not that cold. Most ordinary families use reed catkins, accumulated willow catkins, or even some straw as filling, and sew a linen quilt cover on the outside. They can't afford a cotton quilt, which would cost a whole cotton-padded jacket.
Liang Qu was also quite surprised. Compared with his own environment, it was comparable to a five-star luxury hotel! It was indeed the accommodation environment in August, too luxurious!
"It's cool."
The three of them blew out the candles and got into bed. The strange thing was that although they were extremely sleepy before taking a bath, after lying on the bed, they were not sleepy at all and even felt more energetic.
Especially when he thought about how Lu Tingcai and others were beaten to a pulp by Liang Qu just now, Li Libo huddled in the quilt and laughed out loud.
The laughter seemed to be contagious. Next came Chen Jiechang, and finally Liang Qu. All three of them laughed.
Li Libo opened the quilt and exclaimed: "It's different, it's really different, Ah Shui, you will be my direct disciple in the future. I have never seen anyone more powerful than you in my life."
"Yes, Master Yang is a more powerful figure than Master Zhao. He is one of the best in Pingyang Town. I heard that even the Juren Master would greet him and the County Magistrate would show him respect when he saw him."
Liang Qu put his hands behind his head and stared at Daliang: "I didn't expect that Master Yang would accept me as his apprentice. It's like pulling up a fishing net and finding a precious fish in it."
"If you had gone to pay the autumn tax a few days earlier, how could that dog official dare to kick your grain? If he dares to kick your grain, you should just go up and kick him!"
"Hahaha, then I don't dare."
"Why should I be afraid of him? He is the one I should be afraid of. If you call him an official, he really thinks he is an official. He is nothing but a lackey of the master."
"Yes, yes, yes."
For a moment, the room was like the atmosphere of a night chat in a boys' dormitory. Everyone was in high spirits and everyone was looking forward to his or her future.
Liang Qu was accepted as a personal disciple, and his future was bright. Li Libo and Chen Jiechang also improved from the 7-liang level to the 20-liang level, and their clearance rate increased significantly.
Everyone has a bright future!
After chatting for half an hour, the three of them felt sleepy.
“I’m sleepy.”
"Me too, no more talking, go to sleep."
"I slept"
Early the next morning.
In the misty morning, roosters crowed.
Liang Qu opened his eyes and got up. He was not sleepy at all, and was even full of energy.
There was no electricity or mobile phones, so everyone worked from sunrise to sunset, so we finished taking a bath at around nine o'clock last night, and chatted until ten o'clock before going to bed.
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang, on the other hand, did not have as good a physique as Liang Qu. In addition, they were seriously injured. It was cold and their bed was too comfortable. They hummed twice when they heard the rooster crow and continued to dream.
Liang Qu did not disturb him. He quietly put on the clothes given by Hu Qi, washed up quickly and was about to go out. He happened to see Xiang Changsong practicing boxing in the yard.
"Junior Brother Liang got up early."
"Isn't it earlier, Senior Brother Xiang?" Liang Qu said helplessly, "I also want to sleep in, but my body is used to getting up early."
"I heard that fishermen go out to fish at 12:00 or even 12:00. Is that true?"
"Well, there are more fish at night, and many people go out on the boat at that time to get enough for the family."
"Alas, the lives of ordinary people are not easy." Xiang Changsong sighed, paused, and then said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Master told me last night that if you wake up, I will take you to the mansion to formally perform the apprenticeship ceremony and establish the master-disciple relationship. Since Junior Brother Liang has woken up, come with me!"
Liang Qu was in high spirits.
"I can't ask for it!"
