Chapter 142 Apprentice (please ask for monthly votes)
Zhong Shenxiu came to his senses.
Under his palm, the disciples of the Five Poison Sect had turned into mummies, to the point where even Yan Wushuang couldn't identify them.
He looked at his hands and suddenly fell silent.
"I feel much better, and the hunger desire in my body has also been alleviated... and more importantly... my martial arts has improved greatly..."
After absorbing the Qi of the Five Elements from others, the internal strength in his body has increased further. It seems that the five elements will immediately begin to unite and hit the blood exchange mark.
To a certain extent, this disciple of the Five Poisons Sect is a 'spiritual medicine' that is more effective than ordinary people!
Zhong Shenxiu countered the Five Elements Thief Palm and understood a lot: "It is difficult to exchange blood. In fact, what is exchanged is not pure blood... A warrior can only exchange his own blood once, and there will be no great improvement in his skill." ...So what is being replaced is something more essential, perhaps life force?"
After the blood exchange, the warriors have widened the gap with ordinary martial arts masters. Their physical endurance has become extremely long. They can go for days without food and still be energetic. They can also eat an ox a day and devour everything... Only the change in vitality can explain it. This situation.
"Exchanging blood is a slight change in vitality, but what is marrow refining? Is it a change and sublimation of the essence of life? Is that still a human being?"
Zhong Shenxiu suddenly felt a great fear.
"There are many rumors about ghosts and monsters in remote places in this river and lake. It is said that they eat living people alive and are extremely ferocious. Now it seems that although there are no monsters...but maybe they are all possessed warriors..."
"Before, I heard Wei Baishu say that although the Song family's moth sword in Lingnan is known as the best swordsmanship in the world, its temperament can easily change after practicing it. There are even rumors that they like to eat raw meat and drink tree sap... I always thought it was nonsense, but now it seems that it may not be without reason... Maybe, they all turned into... monsters in the end?!"
"Is this a terrifying world covered in Jianghu skin? No wonder it was located by the aura coordinates of an evil god..."
Zhong Shenxiu originally thought it was strange why the evil spirit aura left by the Black Lotus Master was located in an ancient traditional martial arts world.
Now I finally know that this is not a traditional martial arts world at all!
Rather, it is a strange and terrifying world filled with strange martial arts!
"But I know, there's nothing I can do. I'm not here to save the world..."
Zhong Shenxiu took back his divergent thoughts and began to think about his own problems.
"The Five Elements Thief Palm, I still have to continue practicing and break through the blood exchange level. It's not my body anyway, so it doesn't matter if I become a monster... And so many Earth Ranking and Heavenly Ranking warriors still have human appearances. Maybe I'm just overthinking it. "
"This palm technique, or the martial arts in this world, are a little evil, and it is easy to go crazy. You need to pay attention to this aspect."
"After I stole the Five Elements Qi from the disciples of the Five Poison Sect just now, my impulses have weakened a lot, and the sensory changes can also be controlled. It seems that I need to take a supplement every once in a while to eliminate this negative effect? This is also It’s not a big deal. At worst, every once in a while, I just find a few heinous guys and kill them..."
This house is very remote and there seems to be no one there.
Despite all the commotion, no one came to watch.
This also made Zhong Shenxiu a little more convenient. He searched the corpse first and regretfully found that the Five Poison Sect disciples did not have any martial arts secrets on them.
On the contrary, the bottles and jars contain a lot of poisons, and there is also a corpse-transforming water, which is specially used to destroy corpses and eliminate traces, and the effect is excellent.
Zhong Shenxiu didn't want to provoke the government, so he directly moved Chen Jiu and the mummy together and hydrated them with corpse water.
When he saw that both corpses had turned into pus, he burned the rest of the clothes and left.
Not to mention the ancient government, even in modern times, if there is no corpse, death cannot be determined, and the manpower and material resources invested in the subsequent recovery will inevitably be reduced by half.
After doing all this, Zhong Shenxiu climbed out of the wall, found an alley at random, walked down the street in a grand manner, bought a few fried cakes to eat, and returned to the Yam Hall.
"Junior Brother Xun."
Wei Hongyao looked at Zhong Shenxiu and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought you were very strange just now. I almost thought you were sick."
"Haha, my little brother is as strong as an ox, how can he get sick?"
Zhong Shenxiu made a little joke. Seeing that the yam hall was already running, he didn't want to cause trouble here and went to the backyard.
Wei Baishu wore a silk robe and was playing with two walnuts in his hand. When he saw Zhong Shenxiu, he coughed: "Liuyi, I have something here that I need to discuss with you..."
"What happened?"
Zhong Shenxiu was a little surprised.
Now that the threat of the Five Poison Sect has been temporarily resolved, and we have good relations with the Jiuyuan Sect and the government, the Yam Hall should be living a more prosperous life.
"This matter is big or small. The signboard of our Yam Hall has been established. There are several families here who want to send their young men to be apprentices."
A half-grown boy living in poverty, this kind of half-grown child, if his family is not well off, would have no choice but to find another way to make a living.
Being an apprentice in a medicine hall and learning a trade is naturally an excellent way out.
Even if you can't learn a craft, as long as you are willing to take care of the food, you can be beaten and scolded at will, and the parents will never say a word.
As for wages? What it is?
But Shanyaotang is different after all. It is a half martial arts sect with internal martial arts inheritance.
Accepting an apprentice is actually accepting a disciple.
Of course, you can't say that at this time, just use the name of apprentice.
This is what Wei Baishu wants to say. Otherwise, just a few handymen can be recruited casually, and there is no need to discuss it with Zhong Shenxiu, the number one master.
"Uncle, have you seen the qualifications?"
Zhong Shenxiu asked casually.
"Hehe... There are two good seedlings. One is called Shi Yu and the other is Lu Yang. Their muscles and bones have just grown and they are just in time for training..."
Wei Baishu played with the walnuts: "I have nothing to do, so I can accept a disciple. How about you accept another one?"
‘Are you trying to use the master-disciple relationship to tie it up even more tightly? ’
Zhong Shenxiu saw through the old man's thoughts at a glance and secretly cursed: 'After a while, he might be betrothed to Wei Hongyao to me...'
But it’s not a big deal after all, so he replied readily: “Okay, Uncle Master, you choose first, and just give me the rest.”
It doesn't matter if you just teach an apprentice casually. Anyway, you must throw away the medicinal sand palm at the beginning to lay the foundation. When your character is cleared in the future, you can teach the Five Elements Great Thief Palm.
Of course, a maximum of four chapters can be taught. Once the five elements of this skill are mastered, there are some evil ways that cannot be mastered by ordinary people.
Zhong Shenxiu would not look good if he taught a murderer.
Thinking of this, he suddenly had an idea: 'Should the Shenzhen Sect know these things, right? But this kind of secret is not one of my own, and I won't tell it... Yan Wushuang thinks that I don't have all the five elements, so I won't remind him specifically...'
