Chapter 24 Blood Training
Chen Sanshi and Zhao Qiao returned to Yanbian Village together.

I was almost treated as a hero along the way.

After all, now that the black bear is dead, it will be much safer whether going up the mountain to hunt or collect herbs.

Some villagers wanted to send their children to be his apprentices.

Some people even wanted to give their daughters to him as his mistresses.

A bear costs dozens of taels of silver, which is enough to buy the lives of many young girls in those days.

Chen Sanshi naturally declined them one by one.

Even when he opened the door, two matchmakers happened to walk out of the house.

"Why did you all come to my house?"

Chen Sanshi was speechless.

"It's not hurt, is it?"

Gu Xinlan checked the man as usual, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was fine: "How do you feel?"

"What's it like?"

Chen Sanshi was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was talking about finding a mistress.

He quickly shook his head: "I need to concentrate on practicing martial arts, so I don't have the time for this."

"That's what I thought, so I rejected it for you."

Gu Xinlan helped him take off his bow and spear, and said softly, "Whenever you want to find one, tell me, and I'll help you pick out a nice one."

Chen Sanshi was a little surprised.

It seems that Sister Lan doesn't care about this matter.

That’s true. Women in ancient times had different ideas.

"Sister Lan, please make this for me. Just cook it with water without adding salt."

Chen Sanshi did not forget his main business. He took out the bear heart weighing nearly two kilograms. He could feel the strong vitality contained in it even through the lotus leaves.

"Please keep this silver and remember to buy some for the family if they need it. Also, help me with the bear meat. I will take it to the barracks to eat in two days."

With a mistress at home, he doesn't have to worry about anything.

Gu Xinlan was making a fire in the kitchen.

Chen Sanshi went outside to practice shooting.

After practicing several sets of shooting skills, he was so hungry that he felt dizzy and had a clear feeling of "lack of energy" in his body. Fortunately, the food was ready when there was not much left.

Bear meat, pork, rice, wild vegetable and egg soup, and the most important dish, bear heart.

Chen Sanshi picked up the bear heart and took a big bite.

The smell of blood spread in his mouth and then rushed straight to the top of his head. He almost retched and covered his mouth, forcing himself to chew and swallow it.

It may taste bad, but the effect is really good.

The moment the bear heart entered his stomach, Chen Sanshi felt a warmth in his stomach, as if there was a small flame burning. As the digestive system worked, the nutrients in it were quickly absorbed by the body, making up for the loss caused by practicing martial arts.

He was not picky about the taste and stuffed the bear heart meat into his mouth.

After eating one third of the bear heart, Chen Sanshi felt as if his whole body was on fire. He ate some other food to fill his stomach, then rushed out of the house to continue practicing.

Xiong Xin was really benefited from the tonic. He practiced until dark and never felt "deficient" again. If his muscles hadn't needed rest, he would have practiced all night long.

[Effect: None]

Efficiency skyrocketed!

There are still two-thirds of Xiong Xin left, and it will take the next two days to cultivate the first trace of Qi and blood.

After Chen Sanshi put away his gun and returned to the house, Xiong Xin's tonic was still taking effect and he was full of energy.

Under the warm yellow candlelight, Gu Xinlan was bent over the table, making clothes.

Since she no longer had to go out to work, her skin had become whiter and her fingers were no longer red and swollen. From a distance, they looked like they were carved out of white jade.

In order to save money, Gu Xinlan did not buy ready-made clothes, but bought various fabrics and made them herself.

Chen Sanshi quietly walked behind her and suddenly whispered in her ear: "Madam, change into the red one. I'll wait for you in the room."

"ah……"

Gu Xinlan didn't hear the footsteps at all and was frightened.

She patted her chest and looked up at the fabric on the table.

Red……

Her face suddenly turned red.

It was a half-finished red bellyband.

……

Chen Sanshi stayed at home for two days.

On the third day, he thought it was almost time, so he packed up and went to the garrison. He was wearing a cloth armor, a red hat, a bow on his back and a gun, looking very stylish.

The villagers kept looking at it.

"Shi Tou is about to become an official!"

"Yes, I have a relative who is also a soldier in the garrison. I heard that Shitou is doing well."

"Tsk! I don't think I can live so carefree for many days."

"You bald head, you are really a dog with a mouth that can't spit out ivory!"

"Don't believe pull it down."

The bald man shouted at the top of his voice, fearing that Shi Ge'er couldn't hear him.

"Uncle Laizi."

Chen Sanshi came up to him and asked, "Do you have anything else to say to me?"

"You're quite clever, boy!"

Baldhead came closer and said: "Guess what I saw recently?

"These past two days, I've often seen Qin Xiong's brother inviting a fat officer in the military camp to have a drink. What do you think he's going to do?"

Fat official?

Wang Zhi?

Chen Sanshi guessed.

Has Qin Feng often invited Captain Wang to his banquet recently?
He wasn't too worried.

Wang Zhi already knew that he had a feud with the people from Tianyuan Martial Arts School. If they wanted to harm him, why would they bother teaching Haoran the breathing method?
Besides, for this guy, accepting the treat doesn't mean he agrees to help.

He has experienced it personally.

Qin Feng is most likely going to waste his money...

Of course, Chen Sanshi also has to be on guard against the other party's desperate actions.

He has specifically inquired about it these two days.

It was learned that Qin Feng was suddenly promoted from an outer disciple to a true disciple half a month ago. However, since he had received the true teachings not long ago, he had just broken through to the mastery of blood training.

Chen Sanshi was only one step away from getting started with blood training.

By then, we may be able to fight.

His experience in hunting black bears told him that being stronger was nothing big!

Thinking of this, he became very motivated.

At the entrance of the military camp, he met Wang Zhi who was returning on horseback.

I could smell the alcohol on the other person from a distance.

"then!"

He threw a jar of wine over and said, "It contains deer blood wine. This jar of wine costs three taels of silver. But it's a good thing. I bought it especially for you!

"Who said that I, Wang Zhi, value money as my life and am stingy? Don't listen to Lao Liu and the others' nonsense. You will definitely benefit from following me!

"You should also try your best to cultivate the first strand of Qi and blood for me within ten days."

"Thank you, Captain Wang."

Chen Sanshi clasped his fists and said, "I have reached a bottleneck in my spear training. I wonder if you could give me some pointers to prevent any deviations?"

"Bottleneck? Where does the bottleneck come from during the introductory period? Wait..."

Wang Zhi was half sober: "You, you are going to practice blood soon?!"

On the martial arts field.

Chen Sanshi ate the last piece of bear heart and drank a few mouthfuls of deer blood wine. He felt extremely hot all over and his strength almost overflowed.

He took the opportunity to pick up the plum blossom spear and practice the soldiers' basic spear skills.

Standing meditation, spearmanship, and breathing techniques!
With the triple blessing, Chen Sanshi's body entered a full load state. With the addition of wine and meat, the spear in his hand danced faster and faster, without feeling tired or exhausted at all.

His heart was beating wildly, as if something was about to burst out from inside.

"Is this Qi and blood?"

Chen Sanshi understood that this was the critical moment to develop Qi and blood, so he dared not stop. He kept increasing the strength of each move, madly consuming his physical strength and pushing his heart to the limit.

Until his arms were numb and veins bulged all over his body, he roared, and with his last breath, stabbed a gun into the boulder beside the martial arts field.

at last.

A different kind of hot blood flows out from the heart.
