The sun sets in the west, night falls, the moon rises in the east mountain, the moonlight is like water.
Lu Cheng stood in the yard, first practicing the "Blood Accelerating Art" to refine the spiritual energy in the tiger meat, and then practicing "Tiangu Devouring the Sun and the Moon", absorbing the energy of the moonlight, and opening the "Hand Jueyin Meridian" in one breath. The strength of his upper limbs has increased and he can easily lift 3,500 kilograms.
He walked back to the living room from the yard, suddenly remembered something, and said: "By the way, you take the time to apply for a passport, and then apply for a tourist visa to the United States."
Jiang Qiuyun looked up at him and asked, "Why do you want to go to the United States? There are still many interesting places in China that I have not visited."
Lu Cheng smiled and said: "Because of the Olympic Games! I will take you to watch it live!"
"The Olympics will be held in the United States?"
"Los Angeles, August 12th."
"Only 2 months left?"
"Well, I have to go to training camp in two days."
Jiang Qiuyun was a little surprised: "Didn't you say you wouldn't participate in the training camp?"
Lu Cheng said: "Short-term training. Mainly the 100-meter and 200-meter relay."
"Are you going to participate in the relay race?"
"Yeah, how could the national track and field team leave me, a great person, unused?"
"How long do you have to go?"
"Half a month."
At midnight, Lu Cheng was lying on the bed, touching the jade ring, reciting a spell, and his soul drifted to another world.
Open your eyes and look outside. Outside the cave, there is still white snow.
It seems that the harsh winter is not over yet.
He walked out of the cave and headed to the Witch Temple.
In the witch temple, the great witch and the shaman sat quietly in silence, with no expression on their faces. I don’t know how long they sat there.
Two little witches, Wu Fan, was arranging the wolf skin, plucking the vellus hair from the tail, and soaking the wolf skin in some kind of medicinal liquid.
Lu Cheng walked over and asked: "Brother, why are you plucking this hair?"
Wu Fan didn't even raise his head and replied: "I want to use it to make a talisman pen."
"Senior brother, can you make talisman pens?"
"Well, I have made 5 of them. If you want them, give me 100 jade coins and I will give you one."
"Brother, can I take a look at the talisman pen first?"
"Okay, you come with me."
Lu Cheng followed Wu Fan to a corner of the hall and saw a wooden box in the niche.
Wu Fan took out the wooden box and opened the lid. There were 5 brushes inside.
He took out a pen and said: "Master said that the talisman pen I made has a certain degree of heat and can barely be regarded as a spiritual pen. It can absorb spiritual energy from the sky and the earth, fall on the talisman paper and evolve into a spiritual talisman. It can
You save 30% of your psychic energy when drawing talismans. If such a talisman pen is given to the Rangyi tribe, it can be sold for 200 jade coins; if it is given to the Hanyi tribe, it can be sold for 500 jade coins!"
Lu Cheng asked: "Brother, is it true that no one from the Rangyi and Hanyi tribes makes talisman pens?"
Wu Fan gently stroked the tip of the pen with his finger and said: "This kind of wolf is very rare. It comes from the local specialty white-tailed green wolf. The green wolf is huge, weighing three thousand kilograms, and is green all over. Only the eyes are surrounded by white, and the tail is also white.
It's white. The hair on the tip of its tail is the most spiritual, and it's very effective when you pluck it out to make a talisman pen. However, such white hairs are very rare, and a wolf can pluck up to thirty of them."
Lu Cheng said: "In that case, let me get one."
He has no shortage of jade coins now and has already cut and made a batch of Russian sapphire.
After putting away the talisman pen, he saw Wu Fan continuing to trim the wolf's skin. After plucking a small amount of the longest and shiniest white hair from the tail, he threw the tail fur aside.
"Brother, don't you want these furs?"
"What do you want it for? This kind of leather is too narrow to make talisman paper or sew clothes."
"Can I take it back and make it a scarf to keep out the cold?"
"Hmph, if you don't mind hurting anyone, you can take them away! There are more than a dozen wolf tails here!"
Lu Cheng was so happy that he rolled up the wolf's tail fur and prepared to take it back.
Later, he went to see another senior brother, Wu Guang, and found that Wu Guang was making medicine.
"Brother, do you want me to help you?"
Wu Guang handed him the medicine spoon and said: "Okay! You go ahead and pound it! It must be pounded until it is pulpy!"
Lu Cheng obeyed the instructions, waved his arms and rolled up his sleeves to prepare for work: "Brother, what kind of elixir is this?".
Wu Guangdao: "This batch of elixir, called 'Huang Jing', has been growing for at least sixty years. It totals one hundred kilograms. You pound it into medicinal mud."
Lu Cheng looked carefully and found a pile of tubers similar to ginger.
"Brother, where did this thing come from?"
He studies traditional Chinese medicine and knows that Polygonatum is a good thing.
Wu Guang replied: "The tribe below collected it in Antelope Valley. After pounding this batch of Polygonatum japonica, there are also 100 jins of Fritillaria japonica, 100 jins of ginseng, 50 jins of Tangguo, 20 jins of Huihua... a total of nine kinds of elixirs.
, pounded and mixed, then roasted with Wuwei wood for three days and three nights, and finally kneaded into 'marrow-washing pills'."
Lu Cheng was surprised: "Marrow Cleansing Pill?" He thought to himself: "Is it the legendary Marrow Cleansing Pill?"
Wu Guang said calmly: "When you complete the practice of pulse refining realm, you can take the Marrow Cleansing Pills."
"Brother, the ten levels of martial arts are skin, flesh, muscles, bones, veins, liver, heart, spleen, lungs and kidneys. There is no level of marrow refining!"
"The Marrow Washing Pill is a general elixir that has a tonifying effect on the limbs, tendons, and internal organs. It is said that the children of the Jiu tribe start taking it when they are three years old, and they take one pill every month, so they have many innate masters. And we, the Jiu tribe, have many innate masters.
The Yi tribe does not have enough elixirs and can only provide them to warriors who have perfected the Pulse Refining Realm."
When Lu Cheng heard this, he made the medicine even more powerful.
He did not dare to secretly collect some of the elixirs and put them into the jade ring, because these elixirs were weighed and the final ratio had certain requirements. If he secretly took some elixirs and caused the Marrow Cleansing Pills to eventually fail, it would become a serious matter.
An accident!
Furthermore, Master Wu Huan seemed to be sitting quietly, so who knew he wouldn’t suddenly open his eyes and notice his little movements?
"Senior brother, when you successfully refine the medicine, can you give me a few more pills?"
Wu Guang nodded: "I'll give you a gourd at most!"
Lu Cheng asked: "A large gourd?"
"Humph, you have a beautiful idea! I'll give you a medium-sized gourd and 36 marrow-cleansing pills, enough for you to eat for three years."
"Brother, do you prepare marrow cleaning pills every year?"
"It is prepared once every three years!"
"Which of these nine elixirs is rarer?"
"There are two types that are relatively scarce and need to be exchanged with other tribes. One is the Huihua that is born in ten years, and the second is the Tangguo that is born in sixty years."
"What is Tang Guo?"
"Well, this is it..."
Lu Cheng took a closer look and found that it was a red fruit, similar to a crab apple, but it was larger, as big as a Dangshan pear.
Seeing the red tang fruit, he couldn't help but salivate and praised: "Where did this come from? It looks delicious."
Wu Guang said: "It comes from the Hanyi tribe. In order to get these dozen tang fruits, our tribe married three girls."
"Ah? The price paid is so high?"
"Hey, the Hanyi tribe also married some girls in order to get yarrow."
"So that's it." Lu Cheng thought to himself: "Multiple Yi tribes marrying each other's daughters can improve their genetic structure, which is a good thing."
He diligently pounded all nine elixirs into pieces and poured them into a huge copper cauldron. Then according to Wu Guang's instructions, he placed a kind of wood from the "Wuwei tree" under the cauldron and lit a flame.
It was cooked for three days and three nights! In order to prevent it from being burned, three kinds of blood were added, one was black tiger blood, one was blue wolf blood, and one was white bear blood.
After boiling it until the end, it turns into a bluish-black color, just like dog skin plaster.
Finally, add the powder made from Lingmai and knead it into longan-sized pills.
There were more than 3,000 "marrow washing pills" in total, part of which was put into the gourd, and the other part was collected by the master Wu Huan.
Wu Huan has a jade ring, which is green in color and looks very eye-catching when worn on his thumb.
Lu Cheng's jade ring is hidden within the skin and cannot be seen by outsiders.
He returned to his stone room with a gourd of marrow-cleansing pills and the skins of a dozen wolf tails.
Walking not far from the stone chamber, he saw a clump of green spiritual bamboo. He selected two small-finger-thick spiritual bamboos, chopped them off with a gold dagger, and put them into a jade ring.
Then he lay on the stone bed, touched the jade ring, recited the incantation, fell asleep, and drifted back to modern times.
