Evergreen Immortal..

Chapter 127: Dragon blood enters the stomach, and the dragon shape is formed

"Brother Li, this is the aged tea I have collected for ten years. You should try it."

Wei Ming personally poured tea for Li Rui.

This treatment.

It was the first time that my boss poured me tea.

Li Rui smiled and said, "I don't have anything good at home, so I just brought some local specialties."

"The soil is good."

“I just like the earthy ones!”

Wei Ming couldn't stop smiling.

Such a large Ganoderma lucidum would cost at least a thousand taels, and the one Li Rui brought was of almost elixir-like quality, so it would be at least three times as much.

That is three thousand taels!

Guigui, this is such a generous thing that I wouldn’t even be willing to give as a gift myself.

Wei Ming's heart was beating fast. He was just about to say:
"I'm not your boss, you are my boss!"

Li Rui drank a sip of tea with a smile.

This big Ganoderma lucidum was certainly not bought by him, but picked up by him while searching the mountain. Of course, this was all thanks to his spiritual eyes.

Ever since he acquired the spiritual eye, he has become incredibly wealthy.

It may be worth a lot to others, but to Li Rui, it is just that.

It is worthwhile to use a Ganoderma lucidum to win over Wei Ming.

The courtesy is light and affectionate.

Those are things that only children believe in. Only when courtesy is important can friendship be important.

Wei Ming chatted with Li Rui with a smile until the evening.

Several people came to visit during this period.

He pushed them all away.

Li Rui pretended that he wanted to leave, but Wei Ming forced him to drink with him, and even introduced his wife and children to Li Rui.

Take a look.

Isn't this a big step closer?

Although Wei Ming was nice to Li Rui before, that was just the concern between superiors and subordinates, which is nothing compared to now.

When you know your boss's family and can sit at the same table for dinner.

That is a true confidant, which means he has already treated you as his own.

Although Li Rui has made a breakthrough, his external official position is still in charge of grain. According to Wei Ming's previous experience, even if he shows his strength, it will take at least several years for him to be promoted.

Of course he has to manage relationships with all parties.

After three rounds of drinking.

Wei Ming forced his son to call Li Rui "grandpa", but then he thought that if he did so, his generation would be lowered.

Then he changed it to uncle.

Li Rui has an extra nephew who is thirteen or fourteen years old and can be his great-grandson.

The host enjoyed himself to the fullest and the atmosphere was of course excellent.

Li Rui took advantage of his drunkenness and spoke: "Brother Wei, I heard that there is dragon blood in our Annan Town?"

Wei Ming nodded:

"A few years ago, General Lei killed a vicious dragon and got a lot of dragon blood. He distributed some to each garrison, and we also got some in our garrison."

Li Rui: "Does Wei have any connections?"

Wei Ming was a little surprised: "Brother Li, you want dragon blood?"

"Ah."

Li Rui nodded.

Wei Ming did not ask Li Rui what he wanted the dragon blood for.

The evil dragon killed by Lei Yong was a demon beast. Its blood had the effect of strengthening muscles and bones, which was of great benefit to warriors.

Of course, the price is also shockingly expensive.

Wei Ming groaned and said, "Ning Zhongtian can make the decision on this matter. I'll ask for you. It shouldn't be a problem."

He patted his chest and said, "But this dragon blood requires a great merit to exchange for it. I have a great merit here, so I can lend it to you temporarily. You can return it to me later."

Li Rui's eyes lit up.

Since he asked, he must have already figured out the situation of the dragon blood.

Only those with the rank of garrison commander or above have the power to distribute the dragon's blood, and one must have made a great contribution.

Coincidentally.

Ning Zhongtian is the guard, so if he goes directly to find Ning Zhongtian, there is basically no hope.

A copy of the Flying Dragon in the Sky Map is fine, but many people are eyeing the Jiao Blood. He currently has no friendship with Ning Zhongtian, and Ning Zhongtian will not stand up for him.

At this time, you can only use your strength in a curved way.

Wei Ming and Ning Zhongtian used to be comrades-in-arms and had a very good relationship. Wei Ming also happened to have made a great contribution, which made him a perfect springboard.

"It's all little things."

Wei Ming didn't care.

This was really not a problem for him. Given his relationship with Ning Zhongtian, it was just a matter of asking for great merit in exchange for dragon blood.

Moreover, he borrowed it.

It’s not given for free.

As Li Rui is in charge of grain, if he saves for a few more years, he will be able to achieve great success.

He is Li Rui's boss and is not worried at all that he will default on his debts.

No matter how you look at it, it's all blood money.

Since people gave him such a big Ganoderma lucidum as a gift, it was only natural for him to run errands for him.

When Li Rui saw Wei Ming agreed, he also showed joy.

He was just a small grain manager. Even if he became the general commander, he would not be able to get the dragon blood without the help of a garrison commander.

This dragon blood will be of great use to him.

Others could only strengthen their bodies by drinking dragon blood, but he read in an ancient book that dragon blood was of great benefit to dragon-shaped warriors.

A small dragon is called a Jiao, and a big Jiao is called a Long.

According to legend, there has never been a creature called dragon in the world.

Dragon is the name of the most powerful species.

Of course, this is a record in a book of miscellaneous talks, and Li Rui does not fully agree with it.

But one thing is certain, that is, just like taking dragon blood, it can greatly increase the speed of condensing into dragon form.

Li Rui was in charge of grain.

Although he is only in charge of the Ding-shaped armory, he can see the list of the entire An Ningwei armory.

This dragon blood was just sent to Qinghe from Annan Town a few days ago.

Therefore, Li Rui had planned today's actions for a long time.

There was never any sudden inspiration.

Wei Ming was in a good mood and talked to Li Rui for a long time from the bottom of his heart.

However, Li Rui only believed it to a point.

Finally it came.

Li Rui made another small request: "General Wei, I have a soldier named Liang He under my command. He broke through by chance the day before yesterday and became an entry-level warrior. Please take a look..."

Wei Ming touched his chin:
"Lianghe."

He just felt that the name sounded familiar.

While he was thinking, his wife, who was pouring wine, smiled and said, "Husband, you are the young Liang who defeated the Zhang family a few days ago by using the weak to defeat the strong."

Wei Ming's eyes lit up:
"So it was him. I was wondering why he sounded so familiar. The day before yesterday was New Year's Day."

"good sign."

"Don't worry, Brother Li. I'll take care of this little thing."

It was easy for him to arrange a warrior of the first rank.

The ninth rank is still the most basic soldier in An Ning Wei, and he cannot even get a small flag. However, the soldiers can still be divided into different levels and serve in some important positions. Both their salary and military merits are much higher than those of ordinary soldiers.

You will be able to have a good future in the future.

It would be a waste for Liang He to continue staying in the armory.

Li Rui plans to help Liang He.

Staying in the arsenal to handle daily affairs would not be as beneficial to Li Rui as taking up some important positions.

It also brings many benefits to Liang He himself.

Let’s get down to business.

Li Rui was not in a hurry to leave. This time, talking about something was just a side issue. The most important thing was to further enhance his relationship with Wei Ming.

Once someone agrees to do something, you just walk away.

What do others think of this?
Are you coming to me because you have something to ask?

The two drank until late at night.

Li Rui then returned to his house drunk.

My head is a little dizzy.

"This wine is really intoxicating."

"It's really good wine!" Wei Ming was extremely efficient. Liang He received a transfer order on the second day.

It's not closed at night.

Yebushou is actually the name given by the border troops to scouts, which means not to close the camp at night.

But Annan Town is not a border town.

Although he was called Yebushou, his job was to patrol the major sects.

Unlike the scouts of the border troops who may die at any time.

In An Ning Wei, being a night guard is a really lucrative job, and he can make friends with the masters in the martial arts sects and make a lot of money.

Therefore, if you want to enter Yebushou, you must at least be a warrior of the first rank.

"He is an honest man."

Li Rui was quite satisfied with Wei Ming's arrangement.

When observing a person, don't look at what he says, but look at what he does.

Yebushou is a place where people with connections gather. It goes without saying that Wei Ming must have put a lot of thought into it to arrange Liang He there.

"I'll send some Polygonum multiflorum or something like that over some other day."

Li Rui pondered.

Anyone who has given gifts knows that it is hard to find a boss who will do things for money.

of course.

Wei Ming was willing to use Liang He, not only because of the gift from Li Rui, but more because Liang He himself was a talented person with great potential.

The previous battle with Zhang Fu made him somewhat famous.

Wei Ming has a good impression of Lianghe.

Moreover, the soldiers in Yebushou cannot all be relatives and friends who do not work. Soldiers like Lianghe who are good at actual combat are very popular in Yebushou.

Received a transfer order.

Liang He was somewhat reluctant at first.

Deep down, he hoped to stay with Li Rui.

At last.

After being kicked several times by Li Rui, he finally went to collect reports at night after much persuasion.

Seven or eight days passed.

Li Rui returned home from work and was practicing martial arts.

Wei Ming came to the door in person.

He proudly took out a small jade bottle from his arms and grinned: "Brother Li, look what this is!"

Having said that, he pulled out the cork from the jade bottle.

First there was a strong smell of blood, but mixed in it was a hint of fragrance, a unique smell that Li Rui had never smelled before.

Just one sniff of it makes your blood boil.

Li Rui's eyes lit up: "Is it dragon blood?"

"Live up to the trust."

Wei Ming was even more proud: "Luckily, Brother Li, you acted quickly. The dragon blood is scarce to begin with, and several people were eyeing it. If it weren't for Boss Ning's intervention, we would have missed it."

"Thank you, Brother Wei."

Li Rui felt a little more grateful to Wei Ming for helping him get the dragon blood so quickly.

Of course, this is also the advantage of Li Rui being the grain manager.

You can know the good things first.

Wei Ming waved his hand: "Why are you being polite to me? We are brothers."

Then he blinked:
"Brother Li, are you really planning to cultivate your energy?"

The fact that Li Rui had purchased the Feilongzaitian map could not be hidden from him, the general flag bearer.

He had heard about Li Rui buying a Qi map a long time ago, and the map he bought was a dragon-shaped Qi map. Now he is buying dragon blood as well. It is hard not to make associations.

Li Rui said frankly: "I am old now, and I want to take one last gamble."

Wei Ming was solemn.

"Brother Li is still so enterprising at the age of 70. He is truly a role model for our generation."

"Brother Wei, you are overpraising me."

Wei Ming looked at Li Rui, clicking his tongue constantly.

It is common to be a seventh-grade cultivator at the age of seventy, but it is unheard of to break through to the seventh grade at the age of seventy.

The path of martial arts climbs before the innate level.

It is said that young people are more powerful in fighting. The younger you are, the more vigorous your energy and blood are, and the greater the possibility of a breakthrough. Once you are over 60, there is basically no hope of a breakthrough.

Wei Ming guessed that Li Rui realized that it was hopeless to break through the bronze bones with his qi and blood, so he thought of using the Qi Movement Diagram to cultivate a wisp of qi at the eighth level, which would greatly increase the chance of a breakthrough.

But it is not easy to cultivate Qi at the eighth level.

There are countless geniuses in Annan Town, but only two or three of them can achieve this.

Wei Ming felt hopeless from the bottom of his heart and was really pessimistic.

But he did not say anything to persuade people to attack Li Rui.

After all, it is rare to have such ambition at such an old age.

What if it really comes true?

Wei Ming said some more encouraging words and then said goodbye and left.

Send Wei Ming away.

Li Rui returned to the room holding the small jade bottle, his eyes fiery.

“Finally got it!”

Nourishing Qi?

His Xuanqing Qi had already reached the middle stage of Liujin, and he wanted the dragon blood in order to gather Qi.

If Wei Ming knew this, he would be shocked.

"It is recorded in ancient books that dragon blood can be taken directly."

Li Rui thought about it and immediately took action.

Reach out and pull out the cork from the small jade bottle.

A strong smell of blood filled the room. The space was small and the smell was even stronger than before.

Li Rui remained calm.

Have you ever tasted horse urine?

Li Rui has experienced this. When he was a groom in the Zhu family, he sometimes had to judge whether the horse was sick by the smell of horse urine. The first time he vomited for several days.

Later it gradually became a habit, so he has long been immune to it.

Without even frowning, he tilted his head back and drank the dragon's blood.

Entrance.

First, a violent smell of blood exploded in the mouth and nose, rushing straight to the top of the head. The dragon blood passed through the throat, all the way down, and entered the stomach. Soon, a hot current surged up from the dantian.

“It’s intense!”

In just a few breaths, Li Rui's clothes were soaked with sweat.

He hurriedly sat cross-legged on the cushion.

There are words in his mouth:

"A dragon leaps into the abyss, its divine brilliance is contained within, its true energy circulates, and its divine power becomes apparent."

The meridian route of the flying dragon in the sky map appeared in his mind.

Li Rui mobilized the mysterious and clear energy in his dantian.

He began to circulate Qi along the meridians.

After one week, the burning sensation as if being in a furnace was relieved a little.

Two cycles, three cycles. It turned out to be a full seventy-two cycles!
Thirty-six circulations are called the small circulation, and seventy-two circulations are called the big circulation. Before, when Li Rui was moving his Qi, he moved his Qi thirty-six times, which is thirty-six circulations.

Why not complete the 72 great circulations?

It's not that he is lazy, but that he lacks the strength.

The Xuanqing Qi in his Dantian was too weak, so after completing thirty-six cycles, it was no longer able to continue flowing and could only return to Dantian to recuperate.

And now.

Li Rui completed a big cycle in one breath.

This is exactly the effect of the dragon's blood.

"It really is a precious medicine!"

Li Rui's eyes suddenly opened and he completed a full circle of Qi in one breath. This feeling was extremely refreshing and his whole body felt a lot lighter.

The heat caused by the dragon's blood has disappeared, and instead, a warm current that makes the body and mind comfortable is continuously flowing out from the dantian.

Li Rui clenched his hands.

"My strength has increased by at least 30%!"

The reason why dragon blood is regarded as a supreme treasure by the world is because it is a tonic that can increase one's strength by 20% out of thin air. And because of his martial bones, he can absorb dragon blood more thoroughly, so he adds another 10%.

Li Rui closed his eyes.

Feel it carefully.

In the Dantian, the little dragon that was originally entangled on the chaos cylinder was now covered with scales, with two horns on its head and five claws on its feet. It looked like the legendary Azure Dragon, and was about to soar into the clouds.

"Dragon Form Small Completion!"
