Chapter 31 Ancient Qigong Practitioner
That night.
After finishing the social event.
"Brother Xiao, we received news that several reporters from major newspapers will come to visit you in the next few days. They hope to interview you and take a photo for publicity."
Yu Xiao asked: "What newspapers are there?"
Yu Ruqian replied: "Yangcheng Newspaper, Nanyue Newspaper, Lingnan Newspaper, 72-line Business Newspaper, and several influential newspapers from outside the province also came specially."
this era.
The newspaper industry was booming.
It has created many well-known newspaper tycoons.
The newspaper industry not only has strong commercial monetization capabilities.
It is also a weapon to influence public thoughts and opinions.
If you can control a few major newspapers, it will be of great help in improving your social status...so start by winning over the practitioners!
I glanced at the reputation again.
It increased by another twenty or thirty points in half a day.
It would be best if you could break through the levels in one go!
Yu Xiao instructed Yu Ruqian to receive the media people well, so that he could not only publicize his legendary experience of suppressing bandits, but also publicize what he did during this period in Meixian.
No one left Meixian.
The reputation spreads first.
It will be much easier to develop in the provincial capital in the future.
A person's name is like the shadow of a tree. Reputation is a stepping stone and sometimes a talisman.
Yu Xiao has always been very clear about his own positioning. Although he practices martial arts very hard, he will not make himself a martial artist.
Low martial arts world.
No matter how strong a person is, he has limitations.
In ancient times, if one became a master, he could become a general and be able to defeat thousands of people.
But in this era when guns and artillery are becoming increasingly powerful, even if one becomes a martial arts master, one cannot withstand the concentrated fire of dozens of foreign guns at the same time.
The upper limit of the level that a warrior can reach is too low.
How can they compare with the industrialists and capitalists who control the economic lives of hundreds of millions of people around the world?
At this time, Yu Qinghai brought a team of people and moved dozens of boxes of supplies, including various long and short firearms, various gold and silver jewelry, and other miscellaneous items.
"My dear nephew, please take a look. These are the spoils looted from Shihu Village!"
Shihu Village had been operating for two years, killing people, setting fires, and looting caravans, and naturally accumulated a considerable fortune.
Just scraps of metal!
Yu Xiaocai doesn't like it!
If a victim comes to provide evidence.
Then return the items to them.
Anyway, he is not short of money, so he can just take this as a way to gain some reputation.
of course.
Most things.
The original owner could not be determined.
Then sell it and confiscate it to supplement the militia’s funds.
Yu Xiao was just about to have someone carry away the scrap metal.
"what?"
One thing caught my attention, it was an inconspicuous long box, and when I opened it, I found an old mountain ginseng.
Before refining Qi.
He certainly couldn't see anything.
At this moment, he is a genuine immortal cultivator.
Even though his cultivation level is low, his perception is far beyond that of ordinary people, so he naturally feels the spiritual energy emanating from it!
Yu Qinghai: "My dear nephew, this old ginseng is at least three or four hundred years old. It is a rare tonic. Why don't you keep it at home? It is also very good for making tea or soup. You work so hard every day, so you should take care of yourself!"
Make tea or soup?
Such a waste!
The spiritual energy contained in Laoshan ginseng.
At least it is equivalent to one or two spiritual herb pills.
Yu Xiao can be used to practice or recover mana consumption.
A doubt arose in his mind.
Do monks exist in this world?
The spiritual energy in the Dajing world is extremely thin, and it seems impossible to practice.
Yu Xiao was only at the first level of Qi Refining, and the magic power that could be produced in his Qi Sea and Dantian was very little. When his magic power was exhausted, he could recover naturally in the environment of Baiyunfang after just one night of rest.
Available in large view.
Even if the magic power is so low.
It will take at least ten days of meditation to recover! A small puddle cannot raise a whale!
How could Dajing possibly cultivate immortality?
however.
The spiritual energy is thin.
After all, it's not completely devoid of spiritual energy.
That is why medicinal materials like old mountain ginseng have gradually been created over time. Although it has not yet become a true elixir, it already has the ability to assist in cultivation!
Then.
is it possible.
Someone is able to make use of these meager resources.
Thus, he forcibly opened up a method of cultivation other than martial arts?
Yu Xiao felt that this possibility could not be ruled out. After a little thought, he called Tang Yang, Wang Zhong and Xu Qingfeng.
Master Tang is knowledgeable and experienced.
Master Wang comes from the famous Shaolin Temple.
Taoist Xu comes from Mount Longhu. He is also quite old and has been traveling around the world for many years, so he has a wealth of experience.
"Master Yu is interested in cultivation methods other than martial arts?"
"Yes, I am very curious, and you three have more experience, I wonder if you have heard of it? After all, China has had legends about immortals and gods since ancient times, maybe some of these legends are not groundless."
“Never heard of it!”
Wang Zhong is the most upright.
"The martial arts of our Chinese nation are the orthodox ones. Even if there are other methods of cultivation, they are unorthodox and not worth learning!"
Xu Qingfeng stroked his beard and said, "It's not that absolute. It's just that some ancient cultivation methods have long been lost or are no longer applicable."
"Does Taoist Master Xu know some secrets?"
"I also learned about the existence of ancient Qigong practitioners by chance from my great-grandmaster uncle when I was practicing in Longhu Mountain."
Xu Qingfeng paused and said, "However, this group gradually disappeared during the Han Dynasty. It is feared that they have disappeared in the long river of history for a thousand years. As for whether this is true or not, I am not sure!"
An ancient Qigong practitioner?
Yu Xiao's eyes lit up.
Ask for details immediately.
According to the information revealed by Xu Qingfeng.
These ancient Qigong practitioners were most likely immortal cultivators.
Of course, even though the spiritual environment in ancient times was more favorable than it is now, the cultivation environment in this world is still extremely poor. Even if ancient cultivators really existed, their cultivation would not be very high, and the upper limit would probably be around the third level.
These Qigong practitioners like to live in seclusion.
Therefore, there are very few records.
Almost a legend.
Yu Xiao could totally understand it.
This is because the spiritual energy in this world is thin, and the cost for cultivators to take action is too high. The higher the level of cultivation, the harder it is to recover, so they live in seclusion in the mountains and live a life without conflict with the world.
"I underestimated this world!"
Yu Xiao felt that ancient Qigong practitioners must have existed, and as long as there had been cultivators in this world, there would be more or less some inheritance left behind.
Regardless of these inheritances.
Or these medicinal herbs that are rich in spiritual energy.
They can all help Yu Xiao's cultivation.
It seems that the value of this world is far greater than we imagined!
Tang Yang: "I have never heard of ancient Qigong practitioners, but I have seen practitioners other than martial arts!"
This uncle is usually melancholy, calm and very elegant.
At this moment, he seemed to recall some deep hatred, and there was an uncontrollable anger in his eyes.
He almost gnashed his teeth and said, "Those demons from Southeast Asia and the West, their cultivation methods are completely different from ours!"
Yes!
Almost forgot!
There is more to this world than just scenery!
There are still many forces out there that are either at their peak, thriving, or developing secretly.
Don’t these countries have their own cultivation systems? It seems that this world is more complicated than imagined!
all the time.
Yu Xiaodu stayed in Meixian.
There is no chance to come into contact with the wider world.
If he went to Yangcheng, as the capital of Guangyue Province and the most prosperous port city in Dajing, various domestic forces are intertwined with Western powers, and the water there is hundreds or thousands of times deeper than that in Meixian!
but.
Yu Xiao was not afraid.
Instead, it generated even stronger interest!
