Ma Xiaoyao nodded secretly in his heart. This big housekeeper Gu Zhiqiu is still a person who keeps his promises. With Gu Zhiqiu secretly helping him in the future, Ma Xiaoyao will feel much more relaxed.
In the following days, Ma Xiaoyao ate and drank deliciously every day. As long as Li Ming and Han Yuanyuan were not watching, Ma Xiaoyao would be lazy. The guards watching around him didn't care at all. Speaking of which, the chief steward Gu Zhiqiu was still in the General Military Mansion.
He is very powerful, at least the guards in the mansion dare not offend him.
In the first few days, Han Yuanyuan was still quite interested in Ma Xiaoyao. She came to toss Ma Xiaoyao almost every day, tossing Ma Xiaoyao almost to death, which made her feel very comfortable. However, after a few days, Han Yuanyuan became a little bored and just threw her away.
Ma Xiaoyao threw it aside and ignored him. However, Li Ming was very sad for Ma Xiaoyao. He would torture Ma Xiaoyao almost every few days. However, Li Ming was very measured in his actions and would not hurt Ma Xiaoyao's life.
In Ming's words, he didn't want Ma Xiaoyao to die too happily! He wanted to torture Ma Xiaoyao slowly! He wanted to make Ma Xiaoyao's life extremely painful every day.
The chief steward Gu Zhiqiu specially arranged several spies to watch Han Yuanyuan and Li Ming's every move. As long as Han Yuanyuan and Li Ming came to torment Ma Xiaoyao, Gu Zhiqiu would get the news in advance, and then he would make a series of
Arrange... Notify Ma Xiaoyao at the same time, let Ma Xiaoyao pretend to be miserable, and don't let Han Yuanyuan and Li Ming see the flaw...
With Gu Zhiqiu helping to watch from the dark, Ma Xiaoyao no longer has to live in fear.
…
This evening.
Li Ming came back from the military post below. The first thing he did when he entered the General Military Mansion was to torture Ma Xiaoyao in the backyard. Because Ma Xiaoyao had already received the news in advance, he was already prepared. He lowered his head and deliberately tortured himself.
It was very dirty...and looked extremely miserable.
After torturing Ma Xiaoyao severely, Li Ming left with satisfaction.
"Pooh!"
Ma Xiaoyao spat at Li Ming's back, cursing secretly in his heart: Let you be proud for a few days, and wait until the day I turn around, see how I deal with you!
…
In a warm and welcoming room.
Li Ming and Han Yuanyuan were lying side by side on the bed. Not long ago, the two had a fierce hand-to-hand fight.
"Yuanyuan, the housekeeper found me a few days ago and said something to me, which gave me a headache." Li Ming sighed.
"What did he tell you?" Han Yuanyuan turned her head and looked at Li Ming quietly.
"The chief steward said... my father-in-law is very dissatisfied with my recent behavior..." Li Ming said: "It mainly refers to the matter of Ma Xiaoyao... my father-in-law said, let me restrain myself and don't make the General Military Mansion a mess.
…”
"Don't worry about him." Han Yuanyuan shook her head indifferently: "As long as I support you, you don't have to be afraid of anyone."
"You don't have to worry too much, housekeeper... the key is my father-in-law..." Li Ming was a little worried.
"It's okay, my dad has a temper that is louder than rain. Even if he gets angry very fiercely, it's actually not a deterrent." Han Yuanyuan said, "Just put your heart in your stomach..."
Here, Han Yuanyuan paused: "But speaking of this, I have a question for you... It has been some time since Ma Xiaoyao came to the General Military Mansion. You must have tortured enough, right? Just kill him with one knife!"
"
"No!" Li Ming shook his head: "I can't let him die so easily!"
"Then what do you want? Do you want to torture him for the rest of his life?" Han Yuanyuan frowned.
"If I could... I really want to torture him for the rest of my life..." A sharp light flashed in Li Ming's eyes: "Yuanyuan, you have no idea how deep my hatred for Ma Xiaoyao is! Not only did he ruin my reputation,
He even forced my father to death! There is nothing I can say to let him go!"
"It's up to you!" Han Yuanyuan pouted: "You can do whatever you like, I don't care."
"Madam, please rest assured that I will act appropriately and will not embarrass you, let alone my father-in-law." Li Ming promised.
"Li Ming, have you thought about the future?" Han Yuanyuan asked suddenly.
"What's going to happen next? What?" Li Ming asked.
"What are your plans for the future?"
"What are your plans? Isn't it just to work hard and make more achievements to please my father-in-law?"
"If you want to get ahead, you must upgrade your warrior level! Only when your warrior level rises can you be qualified for higher positions."
"Warrior level?"
"Yes, you are now a third-level warrior, and the corresponding position is centurion. If you reach the fourth-level warrior, you can be the captain of thousands. When you reach the fifth-level warrior, you can be the captain of ten thousand, and so on...
…”
"this……"
"I'll find you some more powerful martial arts books later. You can practice more on your own and try to break through to a fourth-level warrior in the shortest possible time. When you break through to a fourth-level warrior, I'll go find my dad and let me help you.
Move around and try to get you a Thousand Commander Dangdang."
"..."
"Li Ming, why don't you speak?"
"...Um...that...I...actually...what..." Li Ming hesitated, unable to say a complete sentence for a long time.
"What exactly do you want to say?" Han Yuanyuan asked doubtfully.
Li Ming glanced at Han Yuanyuan: "Yuanyuan...actually...I have never practiced martial arts..."
"What?" Han Yuanyuan's eyes widened: "Are you kidding? If you have never practiced martial arts, how did you become a third-level martial artist?"
"I'm serious! I'm not lying to you! I've never practiced martial arts! As for how I became a third-level martial artist... it's because I underwent genetic modification." Originally, Li Ming planned to tell Han Yuanyuan some time later.
But when Han Yuanyuan asked about it today, Li Ming decided to tell the truth. Anyway, this matter could not be hidden in the future.
"Genetic modification? What is this?" Han Yuanyuan was confused.
"Gene modification is... a scientific method... or a technology..." Li Ming explained: "Let's put it this way, there are many genes in our bodies, and these genes are modified through some special means...
…For example, the human body’s genes weigh one kilogram. After being modified, the genes will weigh ten kilograms or even a hundred kilograms... As the genes become stronger, the human body will also become stronger..."
It took a lot of effort for Li Ming to make Han Yuanyuan understand. The main reason was that Han Yuanyuan had been living in the secret territory and had never gone out, so he was very unfamiliar with new things like "genetic modification". Fortunately, Li Ming was eloquent.
Han Yuanyuan barely understood.
"Through genetic modification, you can increase your strength?" Han Yuanyuan was full of surprise: "There is such a shortcut in the world! If everyone undergoes genetic modification, wouldn't it mean that they don't have to practice hard every day?"
It is a very boring thing, and it takes several years of practice to achieve some success. If you want to achieve great achievements, you need to work harder, and practicing martial arts also requires people's qualifications. People with poor qualifications will not be able to do it no matter how hard they work.
There won't be too many achievements.
"It's not as simple as you said." Li Ming shook his head: "Genetic modification is very dangerous. Among a hundred people, at most one person can succeed, and the process of genetic modification is very painful. This kind of pain cannot be described in words.
...The most important thing is that genetic modification is not a one-time thing. If you want to have higher strength, you must carry out multiple genetic modifications. Take me as an example. I can have the strength I have today only after carrying out several genetic modifications.
Genetic modification... Every time genetic modification is carried out, it is extremely dangerous, and one almost dies."
"So dangerous?" Han Yuanyuan's face changed: "And it's very painful! Li Ming, you'd better give up on genetic modification and just practice martial arts! I'll hire a famous teacher for you and let him teach you!"
"I am very clear about my situation. I have average qualifications. If I practice martial arts, it is impossible to achieve very high achievements. Moreover, as far as I know, martial arts training needs to start from an early age. I am already in my thirties, and my bones have long been finalized...
No matter how hard you try, no matter how hard you work, you probably won’t make much progress.”
Han Yuanyuan suddenly stopped talking. Li Ming was right. Martial arts training must start from childhood...the younger the better...once you are over 18 years old and your bones have been finalized, it will be difficult to practice martial arts...unless you undergo menstrual cutting and marrow cleansing.
...The key point is...the process of cutting through the meridians and cleansing the marrow is too painful. Even if it barely succeeds in the end, it is estimated that with Li Ming's qualifications, he will not be able to achieve very high achievements.
"Yuanyuan, I'm sorry, I let you down." Li Ming said guiltily.
"Li Ming, your situation is very... complicated..." Han Yuanyuan sighed: "It's not realistic to practice martial arts from scratch... If we continue to carry out genetic modification... I'm afraid... I'm afraid that you will have an accident..."
"Yuanyuan." Li Ming held Han Yuanyuan's little hand and said with a smile: "Who has never died in life since ancient times? But there are two kinds of death, one is as light as a feather, and the other is heavier than Mount Tai. I don't want to die as light as a feather. I
I want to start a career, win face for you, and make my father-in-law proud of me! I would rather live thirty years in glory than live a hundred years in a cowardly manner!"
"You... are just too stubborn..." Han Yuanyuan smiled bitterly and said, "This matter is too serious... I need to think about it... Give me a few days and I will reply to you after I think about it."
"Well, I'll wait for your decision." Li Ming nodded: "No matter what, I will listen to you. If you ask me to give up genetic modification, I will give up. If you ask me to learn martial arts, no matter how hard or tiring it is, I will go.
Do!"
"Okay, it's getting late, let's take a rest early." Han Yuanyuan said with a sweet smile.
"Sleep!" Li Ming pulled the quilt over the two of them and closed his eyes.
Although Han Yuanyuan was a little sleepy, she just couldn't sleep... Mainly because she was worried about Li Ming. Li Ming was her husband, the man she would rely on for the rest of her life... She had to make a good plan for Li Ming's future...
