Siheyuan: A Very Happy Era

Chapter 534: Sold to someone and helped count the money
Not long after, when Li Guoqiang got the note written by Xu Damao, he immediately got up and took Xu Damao out of the courtyard and went to a remote wasteland nearby.

Xu Damao looked at the quiet and dark environment around him and couldn't help feeling a little scared. He swallowed his saliva and asked cautiously, "Qiangzi, can we start?"

After all, he had mortgaged his house to Li Guoqiang before. If Li Guoqiang killed him directly, he would have no chance to seek justice.

However, he really didn't want to give up the opportunity to learn from Li Guoqiang, so he had to bite the bullet and follow him.

"No hurry, close your eyes now, I'll show you how to experience it first!"

Hearing this, Li Guoqiang raised the corner of his mouth, then laughed and spoke.

"I"

Xu Damao opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but when he saw Li Guoqiang's handsome face under the flashlight, he silently closed his mouth and eyes again, and then waited anxiously.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang immediately stretched out his hand and took Xu Damao into the small world. He also covered Xu Damao's head with a basket to prevent him from seeing the scene in the small world.

Immediately afterwards, before he stayed for even a second, he brought Xu Damao to a height of 100 meters outside, and then repeated the previous operation. After a while, he sent Xu Damao to the clouds more than 2,000 meters above the ground, and took off the basket on Xu Damao's head.

Immediately, Xu Damao felt a sense of weightlessness, opened his eyes in panic, and then fell rapidly from the air.

In less than half a minute, he had passed through the clouds and was rapidly approaching the ground.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground and turn into a meat patty, he suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself standing on the ground again, as if everything he had just experienced was just a dream.

"How was it? Was it exciting?"

Li Guoqiang looked at Xu Damao with his mouth wide open and a dazed look on his face, and he felt happy in his heart, then he asked with a chuckle.

Hearing the voice, Xu Damao trembled all over, then slowly turned his head to look at Li Guoqiang, his eyes full of fear.

Originally, he thought that Li Guoqiang would at most throw him into the air and roll him up and down like he did before, but he never expected that Li Guoqiang would actually carry him to such a high place and then let him fall down by himself.

What if he was not careful and failed to catch it, wouldn't he be completely finished?
Thinking of this, he was shocked and angry, and almost couldn't help but fight with Li Guoqiang.

Fortunately, after these years of training, his ability to control himself has improved a lot, so he doesn't do anything impulsive.

However, he had already secretly backed out in his heart and decided not to play with Li Guoqiang anymore.

Just when he was about to find an excuse to go back, Li Guoqiang seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He immediately laughed and said, "Don't worry, I just let you experience it first. Now I will start teaching you the basic skills."

Hearing this, Xu Damao's determination was shaken for a moment, and then he looked at Li Guoqiang with some suspicion, obviously not believing that Li Guoqiang would be so kind.

But Li Guoqiang didn't care what Xu Damao thought at this time. He just sat cross-legged on the ground, then waved to Xu Damao, indicating him to sit down too.

Seeing this, Xu Damao hesitated for a moment, then slowly sat down like Li Guoqiang.

"Now clasp your hands together like I did and place them below your belly button. Then imagine in your mind that there is a stream of air three inches below your belly button. Then start breathing in rhythm with me."

Seeing that Xu Damao was already seated, Li Guoqiang didn't keep him in suspense and went straight to the point.

Soon, he was like a lying stone, firmly rooted in the ground, and then began to breathe in a rhythm of three long and one short.

When Xu Damao saw the otherworldly aura emanating from Li Guoqiang, his eyes lit up slightly. Then he stared at Li Guoqiang's movements seriously and began to learn from him bit by bit.

Fortunately, there was no one around at the moment, otherwise, if someone saw their behavior, they would probably be arrested on the spot as feudal remnants.

This is also the main reason why Li Guoqiang chose to do it at night and bring Xu Damao to this wasteland.

Not long after, Li Guoqiang saw that Xu Damao had learned it quite well, so he immediately stood up, walked over to give him detailed instructions, and explained the extremely profound theory of the circulation of vital energy in the human body.

When Xu Damao heard this, although he felt a little confused about how powerful it was, he gradually came to believe in this set of introductory exercises. He even began to imagine how powerful he would be when he mastered it.

Little did people know that this was just a health-preserving technique that Li Guoqiang extracted from the martial arts meditation routine.

By practicing this set of exercises, at most you can improve your physical fitness and strengthen your mental strength, but there is absolutely no possibility of flying or escaping the ground.

Moreover, even if Xu Damao did not achieve any results from his practice, Li Guoqiang could use the excuse that Xu Damao was dull by nature and needed to spend more time practicing.

In this way, you can fool people for at least two or three years.

By then, even if Xu Damao could understand it, it would be too late.

What's more, Li Guoqiang could use his dull talent as an excuse to let him practice Bajiquan and other martial arts instead, under the pretext of strengthening the body and improving his aptitude in preparation for further practice.

Since Xu Damao had already spent two or three years, he would definitely not be willing to give up. In the end, he could only listen to his arrangements and continue to practice martial arts.

Then, because of the successful martial arts training, it is natural to stimulate the passion for martial arts, until you encounter a bottleneck in martial arts training and your passion for martial arts is exhausted.

By that time, perhaps it was already the 1980s. Li Guoqiang only needed to dangle monetary benefits in front of Xu Damao and easily take him in as a dog and make him work hard to make money.

Thinking of this, a slightly satisfied smile appeared on Li Guoqiang's face.

However, Xu Damao was still immersed in his fantasy of achieving great success and had no idea that Li Guoqiang had already made clear arrangements for the rest of his life.

More than half an hour passed like this, and seeing that the time was almost up, Li Guoqiang hurriedly woke Xu Damao up, and then said seriously: "You also know what the situation is like outside now, so when you are practicing, you must not let anyone find out.

In addition, this set of introductory exercises can only be practiced for a maximum of half an hour a day. If you practice for more time, not only will it be of no benefit, but it will also harm your body. You must remember this.

When you can feel a current of air in the Dantian below your navel running around like a mouse, I will teach you the technique that will allow you to fly into the sky and hide in the ground."

"So how long will that take?"

After hearing this, Xu Damao couldn't help but ask with anticipation on his face.

"Well, it depends on your qualifications. If your qualifications are good, you can get started in less than half a year. If your qualifications are average, you will have to spend more time and put in more effort."

When Li Guoqiang heard this, he hesitated for a moment and then spoke slowly.

"Forehead"

When Xu Damao heard that it would take at least half a year, his expression froze instantly.

He originally thought that within three or two months, he would be able to turn things around and become a superior person!

I didn’t expect that practicing this introductory technique would be so difficult.

"What? You think this is difficult? If this skill could be learned so easily, wouldn't the world be filled with people flying everywhere?"

Li Guoqiang saw Xu Damao's reaction, raised his eyebrows, and then said with some dissatisfaction. "That's true!"

When Xu Damao heard this, he was slightly stunned, then nodded in agreement.

Speaking of which, if everyone can learn this skill, then there is no need for him to spend so much money to learn from Li Guoqiang, right?

"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. Now it all depends on your luck!"

Seeing that Xu Damao had been fooled, Li Guoqiang didn't want to waste any more time talking to him, so he quickly waved his hand and spoke.

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the courtyard.

Upon seeing this, Xu Damao hurriedly followed with an attentive look on his face, and kept asking questions about some of his doubts about the martial arts, fearing that Li Guoqiang would refuse to teach him after he returned.

In this regard, Li Guoqiang answered every question.

Anyway, no matter what he said, Xu Damao didn't know whether it was true or not.

They asked and answered questions along the way, and soon they returned to the courtyard together.

Then, Li Guoqiang pretended to suddenly remember something and said hurriedly, "Oh, by the way, because you are older now, the meridians in your body are usually blocked. It's not too late now. I'll go to your house with you and do acupuncture for you to open up your meridians."

"Then I'll trouble you!"

When Xu Damao heard this, his eyes lit up, and he quickly nodded and agreed.

After saying that, he enthusiastically took Li Guoqiang back to his home, and then, according to Li Guoqiang's instructions, he changed into thinner clothes and lay down on the bed.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang did not waste any time. He directly took out the acupuncture bag and inserted silver needles into Xu Damao's body.

On the surface, he was helping Xu Damao to open up the meridians in his body, but in fact, he was using silver needles to stimulate the vital energy in Xu Damao's body, allowing him to feel a significant improvement in his physical condition in a short period of time.

After all, if you want the horse to run, you must first give it some grass.

Soon, Xu Damao felt a sense of clarity all over his body, which was especially like the meridian cleansing he had read about in novels before.

This made him feel very surprised, and at the same time, he was full of confidence in mastering the introductory set of exercises.

However, before he could be happy for long, a sudden sleepiness came over him and he fell asleep without realizing it.

Seeing that Xu Damao had fallen asleep due to the stimulation of the silver needles, Li Guoqiang immediately removed all the silver needles, then turned around and looked at Qin Jingru who was sitting next to him with a smile on his face.

"What the hell are you doing?"

Seeing this, Qin Jingru couldn't help but ask the question that she had been holding back all night.

"Ah!"

Li Guoqiang was delighted when he heard this, and then he explained softly: "This is what happened."

Soon, he repeated to Qin Jingru what he had said to Xu Damao that evening, and even told her his plans for Xu Damao's second half of his life.

"You, you are too bad!"

After hearing this, Qin Jingru's eyes widened, and then she spoke in surprise.

After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Xu Damao with a hint of sympathy.

Before she met Li Guoqiang, she always thought Xu Damao was very smart. Not only was he able to get along with everyone in the steel rolling mill, but he was also able to get so many good things from the countryside, and he even became the deputy director through connections.

However, such a smart person was now fooled by Li Guoqiang and even sold out, and he was still helping to count the money.

I have to say that there is still a big gap between people.

"Okay, you don't need to look. I just did acupuncture for him. He needs to sleep for at least seven or eight hours before he wakes up. Now go get your sister!"

Li Guoqiang waved his hand after hearing this, and then spoke softly and gave an order.

"No, why do you want me to call my sister?"

When Qin Jingru heard this, she was shocked and quickly raised her objection.

"How about I go to your sister's place now?"

Li Guoqiang looked at Qin Jingru's excited face, raised his eyebrows, and then whispered a suggestion.

"Forehead"

When Qin Jingru heard what Li Guoqiang said, she was suddenly speechless.

Then, she thought about it and felt that she would meet Qin Huairu sooner or later, so she made up her mind, stood up and walked towards the door of the outer room.

Seeing this, Li Guoqiang smiled slightly, then waved his hand and moved Xu Damao to lie on the dining table in the outer room.

Not long after, when Qin Jingru came back with Qin Huairu, who looked hesitant, she was almost scared by Xu Damao at the dinner table as soon as she entered the door.

Fortunately, she covered her mouth in time and quickly closed the door, otherwise, she would have attracted everyone in the yard.

Qin Huairu was also shocked when she saw Xu Damao's unique sleeping posture.

However, she was obviously braver than Qin Jingru. At least she was not scared to the point of screaming. Her expression just changed a few times.

At this time, Li Guoqiang also came out from the inner room and waved to the two of them.

Seeing this scene, Qin Jingru couldn't help but roll her eyes, while Qin Huairu showed an expression of reluctance and shyness.

From this we can see that Qin Huairu's Taoism is indeed much higher than Qin Jingru's.

If she had not been restricted by this era, she would have at least become an outstanding strong woman.

"Are you coming? If not, I'm leaving!"

Seeing that the two of them did not move, Li Guoqiang frowned slightly, then spoke impatiently.

After saying that, he immediately took a step forward and pretended to leave, but before he reached the door, Qin Jingru and Qin Huairu stopped him, one on each side.
