Chapter 58: Miraculous Medicine Arrives
How many years has the Dajing world civilization existed?
I estimate that at most it will be less than ten thousand years!
Even if people have understood the martial arts since the beginning of civilization, the foundation they can develop is limited.
How many years has the civilization of the world of immortal cultivation existed?
I’m afraid no one can explain this clearly!
The history of many immortal cultivation families and sects is often thousands or even tens of thousands of years.
and so.
Regardless of the historical background and thickness.
Or the quality and scale of talents.
The Dajing world is not even one millionth of the immortal world.
Martial arts do not require spiritual roots.
Anyone can practice it.
There are tens of thousands of mortal countries in the world of immortals, and countless people practicing martial arts, which is tens of thousands times the number of immortals!
There are countless martial arts that have been passed down from ancient times to the present, and most of these martial arts have undergone hundreds or thousands of years of continuous iteration and improvement, so the quality can be imagined.
The secret book in Yu Xiao's hand.
If it were an era before the rise of firearms, any book that came out would have inevitably caused a bloody storm, with countless martial arts masters and sects fighting over it and blood flowing like a river!
Even in recent years.
As thermal weapons become increasingly powerful.
The major forces have reduced their emphasis on martial prowess.
These secret books can still become treasures of the martial arts world!
now.
They are all thrown here like rubbish.
There are many disciples coming in and out of the boxing gym.
No one even took a second look at those who came to learn boxing.
This is normal. This is the world of cultivating immortals, and martial arts secrets are not valuable!
When Master Li was still at Chunlei Boxing Gym, the tuition fee was only one spirit stone, and he could also accept deductions with equivalents such as gold. However, this fee was not for martial arts at all, but for at least three months of educational services from Master Li and the boxing gym.
Spring Thunder Fist is the same as other martial arts.
It is worthless in itself.
Yu Xiao brought the pile of secret books back to his residence, and then habitually activated the perception technique to sense it. After making sure that there was no one nearby, he entered the stone hall space with the pile of secret books.
Put the secret book in the stone hall first.
Yu Xiao would definitely not release all these secret books at once, but would copy them part by part, and then use them as bait to attract the top warriors in the provincial capital and even the whole world.
These old guys.
I have practiced martial arts all my life.
Most of them are absolute martial arts fanatics.
They have a short lifespan and may not be interested in material enjoyment, so no matter how much money you spend, you may not be able to please them.
But if these unheard-of and unseen exquisite martial arts are used as bargaining chips, how many old men in this world can resist the temptation? Once they ask for something from me, difficult things will become easy!
Back to the big view.
Yu Xiao officially came out of quarantine.
The breakthrough was announced.
Wang Zhong, Lei Changfeng and others all looked horrified again!
"Breakthrough?"
"So fast!"
"I think Master Yu is more than a master!"
"Is he expected to become the legendary..."
The masters stared at each other.
A concept popped up in their minds: Martial Saint!
What is a Martial Saint?
This is a legendary realm!
There is a master in almost every era.
In other words, a master-level expert will appear once every few decades at most, but in some prosperous times when military power is flourishing, or in an era like today with a dense population and advanced productivity, several master-level experts can appear at the same time.
The Martial Saint is different!
This is the realm that is said to be above the Grandmaster!
It is said that only one appears every several hundred years or even nearly a thousand years!
Yu Xiao started practicing martial arts in May and June last year. In just one year, he has risen from a layman to a fifth-rank master. Breaking through the realm is as easy as drinking water.
At this speed.
Grandmaster, no suspense!
If you can become a master within five years.
It is really possible to touch the legendary realm!
……
Yu Xiao noticed.
After entering the fifth level.
Wang Zhong, Lei Changfeng and other guards were more and more in awe of him. Yu Xiao was very satisfied with this, and he was not low-key in martial arts. These reputations in the martial arts world would not only increase Yu Xiao's reputation, but also make it easier for him to integrate the martial arts world in the future.
at the same time.
Yu Xiao plans to increase the training of young martial artists such as Wang Zhong.
Although Yu Xiao will be able to recruit a large number of experts in the near future, whether these people are trustworthy still needs further investigation. In the short term, it is more reassuring to use people around him.
at this time.
Yu Ruqian received an exciting news:
"Brother Xiao, we received a letter from the owner of Baicaotang. He claimed that he had a thousand-year-old ginseng."
"Baicaotang? Is it reliable?"
"This is one of the largest herbal medicine shops in the provincial capital. It has an outstanding reputation and fame. I think it should be fine."
Yu Xiao immediately took it seriously and said, "Then let's arrange a time so I can talk to him in person. The sooner the better!"
"Yes!"
Yu Ruqian made an appointment quickly.
We will meet and talk at Lin Heung House tomorrow at noon.
……
The next day.
Yu Xiao walked out of Qinglong Lane.
He was followed by two men, one civil and one military.
The scholar was Yu Ruqian, who was wearing a long gown and glasses and looked very gentle.
The warrior is Lei Changfeng, holding an oxtail knife in his hand and a Mauser pistol on his waist, and he is responsible for protecting the safety.
It is only about 600 to 700 meters from the alley to Shangxiajiu Road, which is the most famous commercial street in the provincial capital. It is divided into Shangjiu Road and Xiajiu Road, which are actually two streets.
The two streets are adjacent and parallel, with many intersections where people can cross each other.
After the Western powers opened the trading ports of Dajing Kingdom, the Thirteen Hong Road, which had once flourished due to its monopoly on trade, declined. Currently, Shangxiajiu Road is the most prosperous commercial street in the provincial capital.
This street also has a long history.
It was already a commercial gathering place as early as the sixth century.
Currently, the Shangxiajiu Road Pedestrian Street is 1237 meters long. The buildings are in a unique Nanyang arcade style, providing merchants with spacious business space and pedestrians with the convenience of sunshade and rain shelter.
now.
Yu Xiao strolled among them.
The surrounding area is bustling with people.
There are foreigners in western suits, wealthy businessmen in gorgeous clothes, and glamorous ladies from Xiguan.
Of course, there are also vendors with eager faces, rickshaw drivers with sweat on their foreheads, beggars with disheveled hair and dirty faces, and smokers who are skinny and have lifeless eyes.
There are many shops here, covering a wide variety of categories, and various distinctive local characteristics can be seen everywhere.
As Yu Xiao walked along the way, he saw many traditional craft displays of silk and ceramic production, as well as Cantonese opera performances arranged by merchants to attract customers. Even the small vendors were ingenious and racked their brains to attract customers.
For example, there is a kind of pickled white olives, which is a very popular snack nowadays.
In order to attract customers, these olive vendors put a huge paper rooster on their bodies and then walk through the market playing suona. The olives they sell are all in the chicken's cavity and the customers can choose the flavor. They are commonly known as rooster olives.
Similar characteristics and customs can be found everywhere.
If we put aside the darkness and ignorance of the times.
Such street scenes full of characteristics of the times and regions are much more interesting than the copy-and-pasted Internet celebrity pedestrian streets and Internet celebrity towns in the past. At least they have enough characteristics and sense of the times to make people feel fresh, interesting and fun.
But Yu Xiao was not here for shopping.
Walked to Lianxiang Tower.
"Mr. Yu, my name is Bao Jinyu. I have long heard of your great name!"
An old man in a long gown appeared in front of him, followed by two big men. This man was the owner of Baicaotang.
A few polite words.
Sit down and chat together.
Yu Xiao got straight to the point: "I want to take a look at the medicinal materials first."
Bao Jinyu nodded and asked his attendant to hand over an exquisite treasure box. Although it had not been opened yet, Yu Xiao could already feel an unusually abundant and pure spiritual power emanating from it!
very good!
Even if you don't need to watch it.
He can also judge the value of this medicine!
Even if the medicine is not a thousand years old, it must be pretty good.
Yu Xiao's heart was lifted. With the help of this medicine, he didn't need to go through the trouble of cultivating to the fourth level. Breaking through the second level of Qi Refining would be a piece of cake!
