The days when I opened a tavern in Zongwu

Chapter 74 Poison and Qinggong are better suited

On the third day of the twelfth lunar month, it is better to settle down and avoid moving the kitchen.

The climate in Hanshan City is even colder.

The surfaces of lakes and rivers outside the city are also covered in ice.

In the main room, Lianxing was sitting at the door, holding the peanuts that Huang Rong had fried in the morning.

With a gentle pinch of the white fingertips of her right hand, the brittle peanut shell suddenly cracked. Then, Lianxing's equally white fingers of her left hand took out the peanut kernels and put them into her mouth.

Sometimes he looked up at the courtyard, sometimes his eyes fell on the white and slender hand on his left hand, and sometimes he looked at the two people practicing in the courtyard.

But when his eyes fell on Li Changqing, Lianxing couldn't help but have a little wonder in his eyes.

In the courtyard, Li Changqing and Huang Rong were standing on the snow, their bodies moving left and right.

But it was the "Two Rituals and Four Elephants Steps" taught by Lian Xing half a month ago.

But as the two of them moved, only Huang Rong's footprints were left on the snow in the courtyard.

On the other hand, when Li Changqing stepped on the hexagram position, there was no trace left on the fluffy snow at the top of the courtyard.

It seems that it has reached the point where there is no trace of walking on the snow.

After a while, as the internal force in Li Changqing's body moved faster, Li Changqing's steps carried a special charm every time he moved.

When stepping on the hexagram position, it feels like walking normally, with a natural feeling.

At the same time, a system prompt suddenly appeared in front of Li Changqing.

[Ding, congratulations to the host of "Two Etiquette and Four Elephant Steps" for being upgraded to "Supernatural". 】

Almost at the moment when this prompt message appeared, Li Changqing's figure in the courtyard flashed to the eaves.

Let out a long breath after finishing the exercise.

"Finally reached the level of "superior perfection"."

During this half month, Li Changqing practiced "Two Rituals and Four Elephants Steps" for nearly two hours almost every day.

With his "peerless" level of understanding and Lian Xing's occasional guidance, Li Changqing's understanding of "Two Etiquette and Four Elephant Steps" will be greatly improved every day.

Half an hour later, Huang Rong, who was also practicing in the courtyard, tapped her toes on the snow, spun her body a few times in the air and then landed under the eaves.

After Li Changqing entered the main room and sat next to him, Lian Xing said slightly puzzled: "During this period, Mr. Li only practiced "Two Rituals and Four Elephant Steps" every day, but he never practiced "Hundred Leaf Picking Flower Palm".

Hearing Lianxing's words about giving away martial arts as a gift, Li Changqing shook his head and said: ""Hundred Leaf Flower Picking Palm" is a low-level martial arts. It is rare in the world. How can I despise it? I just want to bite off more than I can chew. , prepare to thoroughly understand a martial arts before proceeding."

Although Li Changqing has been exposed to martial arts for less than a month.

But I also know that one trick can be used all over the world.

In Li Changqing's view, instead of being miscellaneous in martial arts, it is better to specialize in one thing first.

What's more, Li Changqing is good at using poison. Even though "Hundred Leaf Flower Picking Palm" is a low-level martial arts, he can't use poison safely.

Therefore, among the two martial arts, Li Changqing naturally prefers the martial arts "Two Instruments and Four Elephant Steps".

After all, poison goes well with Qinggong and Shenfa.

Just use the poison to drag the enemy until the poison is released, and everything will be fine.

Comparatively speaking, it is safer to fight head-on with people than using martial arts such as "Hundred Leaves Picking Flower Palm".

Lianxing didn't know what Li Changqing was thinking, but he deeply believed what Li Changqing said.

If someone else, like Huang Rong, suddenly acquired two earth-level martial arts, they would definitely want to go hand in hand and practice the two martial arts together.

But there are too few people like Li Changqing who know how to specialize in one martial art and practice it with concentration.

While the two were talking, Huang Rong in the courtyard also finished her training and ducked under the eaves.

After Huang Rong entered the main room, Lian Xing praised: "In just half a month, you were able to practice "Two Etiquettes and Four Elephant Steps" and "Hundred Leaf Picking Flower Palm" to the level of "comprehension". Ronger, your talent is indeed good."

Faced with Lian Xing's praise, Huang Rong also showed a happy look on her face.

But when she looked at Li Changqing, who was sleeping with her eyes closed, the happiness that had not spread on Huang Rong's face instantly dissipated.

After walking to Lianxing and sitting down, his expression became a little more depressed.

Many times, if you don’t work hard, you won’t know what despair is.

Just like Huang Rong now.

I spent two hours practicing hard every day, and it took me half a month to master the two martial arts to the level of "integration and mastery".

But the level of martial arts becomes more and more difficult the further you go. Based on Huang Rong's current progress, it will take at least several years to reach the level of "mellow and smooth".

But according to what Lian Xing said, on the third day after Li Changqing learned "Two Instruments and Four Symbols", he reached a higher level and reached the level of "reaching the pinnacle".

Thinking of the gap between them, how could Huang Rong be happy at this moment?

When she looked at Li Changqing who was standing aside, Huang Rong's eyes also showed a bit of resentment.

Noticing Huang Rong's reaction, Lianxing didn't know what Huang Rong was thinking at this time.

In response, Lianxing couldn't help but shook his head.

For warriors, talent is the most unreasonable thing.

Looking at the world, most warriors waste years or even decades to reach the realm. For those with extremely high talents, it is just within easy reach.

Talent is like a straw, but it is this straw that divides the future of warriors into three, six or nine grades to a great extent.

Huang Rong's cultivation progress has been extremely fast.

But we also need to divide the objects.

In Lian Xing's view, Li Changqing's understanding, let alone Huang Rong's, was only higher than that of her sister Yao Yue.

However, at this moment, a special wave suddenly emerged from Li Changqing's body.

A few breaths later, in the perception of Huang Rong and Lian Xing, the internal energy fluctuations in Li Changqing's body changed from the original fifth acquired level to the acquired sixth level.

After successfully breaking through, Li Changqing smashed his mouth, changed the hand behind his head from his right hand to his left hand, and then continued to sleep with his eyes closed.

At this moment, Huang Rong suddenly felt what it meant to add insult to injury.

The originally bad mood suddenly became even worse.

After trying to endure it for a while, Huang Rong couldn't hold it back in the end. She screamed strangely and rushed towards Li Changqing.

In an instant, the originally quiet courtyard was filled with the sounds of Li Changqing and Huang Rong playing.

Seeing the two people chasing each other in the yard and even picking up snowballs, the smile on Lianxing's lips in the room never left.

In the afternoon, as the door of the tavern opened, Huang Rong, who returned to Li Changqing, took out a ten tael of silver and said, "I bet ten taels that the first customer to come to the door today will be Zhou Yong."

It has been more than half a month since the pub opened.

In the tavern, apart from Zhou Yong, there were also several other drinkers.

Although it wasn't much, it was enough to make Li Changqing's small tavern no longer as deserted as it was when it first opened.

Looking at the silver that Huang Rong put on the table, Lianxing looked confused.

"Rong'er, didn't you lose all your money playing cards last night? Where did these ten taels of silver come from?"

These days, when Huang Rong, Li Changqing and Lian Xing played chess and cards, they no longer used housework as a bet, but directly exchanged it for gambling money.

But although Huang Rong is smart, how can she compare to Li Changqing's cunningness?

Naturally, whether you are playing chess or cards, you almost always lose more than you win.

Not to mention receiving wages from Li Changqing now, all the wages for the next three months were lost last night.

Faced with Lian Xing's question, Huang Rong said with a natural expression: "I still have some spare money outside. I picked it up before going to bed last night."

Then, as if she didn't want to continue on this topic, before Li Changqing and Lian Xing could speak, Huang Rong urged: "I've placed a bet, do you dare to bet?"

As soon as the voice fell, Li Changqing reached into his arms and took out ten taels of silver and put it on the table.

"I bet even if Zhou Yong comes today, he won't be the first one."

Seeing Li Changqing enter the game, Huang Rong smiled "Hey" and looked at Lianxing.

Lianxing glanced at Li Changqing slightly suspiciously.

After thinking for a while, he took out the money and put it on the table: "I also bet that Zhou Yong is not the first one to come to the door today."

Huang Rong slapped the table, "Okay, take it!"

After saying that, Huang Rong took out a tael of broken gold and put it on the table. Then she looked up at the door and waited quietly.

Glancing at the gold and silver in front of Huang Rong, Li Changqing raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Why did this girl suddenly get into trouble?"
