fox loves meat

Chapter 20 Advanced
The autumn wind is rustling, and the weather is getting colder and colder.

Before the sun had fully set, the craftsmen added the last tile to the house.

The houses in the courtyard have all been renovated, and all the debris and brick waste in the yard have been cleaned up.

The originally thick fallen leaves on the ground were also cleaned up by the peasant woman in the kitchen.

The whole house seemed empty and lonely.

Hua Sanduo paid the last wage, sent everyone away, and closed the front door of the compound.

After putting down the door bolt, she sighed melancholy, turned and walked towards the backyard wing room.

When he came to the door of the last wing, he happened to bump into Fat Qiuer who came to deliver food to An Qingyu.

Fat Qiu'er walked to the door and saw that the food delivered last night hadn't moved at all, so he couldn't help but look at Hua Sanduo.

"Sister Sanduo, the boss hasn't eaten for three days... Is it really all right?"

Hua Sanduo shook his head, "I only know that interruptions are the most taboo during the cultivation period, and I don't know if it's okay to not eat for three days... But judging by her situation, she probably won't be able to wake her up, alas, I can only wait and see."

Fat Ball leaned on the window to look in, and said in a low voice: "It's been a few days, even though I've turned back into a human form, I've locked myself in the room without moving, don't be mad..."

Hua Sanduo also stood by the window watching the situation in the room, her eyebrows slightly frowned, "It shouldn't be so, I think her face is quite normal..."

The small talk outside the window continued intermittently, but An Qingyu in the room closed her eyes and listened, only breathing in and out slowly.

There are many methods of cultivation——

Comprehend the world; take elixir; masters pass on skills; absorb energy; double cultivation; compete with masters; watch the cheats or artistic conceptions of Taoists and immortals.

The method An Qingyu used in the past was to absorb the inner alchemy energy and use it for herself.

But after a fight with Uncle Ghost, she was injured by the most yin qi, and she suddenly felt something.

So when the injury was not completely healed, he advocated to enter meditation, wanted to retreat and practice, and tried to break through the early stage of qi refining.

This kind of situation is like a sudden inspiration. The most feared thing is that it will be fleeting, so we must seize the opportunity.

An Qingyu had originally reached the level of Dzogchen in the early stage after taking the inner alchemy, and it was only one step away from the middle stage, but it felt out of reach.

This time is a good opportunity for her.

——What is Yin Qi?
The yang qi refers to the three qi of life, prosperity and decline of the sun during the day.

The yin qi refers to the three qi of life, prosperity, and decline in the space at night.

The yang qi is like the sky and the sun, it is the three yangs, and the yin qi is like the earth and the moon, it is the three yins.

Three yin and three yang, yin and yang and six qi, six meridian differentiation.

The yang energy descends, the earth qi and yin qi rise, and the combination of the two qi gives birth to human beings.

The intersection of yin and yang is immortal vitality!

Boom! ——

It seems to be ringing in the ears!

An Qingyu opened her eyes quickly, only to see that her eyes were like clear springs, her skin was like fat, her peach cheeks were smiling, she had a lightness of her own, and her whole body exuded an indescribable beauty.

——The mid-stage of gas refining!
An Qingyu gently raised her palm, and as it swept across the air, there was the sound of paper being torn!
The originally empty room immediately changed——

The temperature of the air in the house dropped sharply, and the cold frost swayed in the fog, and one after another, terrifying ghost figures came out of the fog!
Tongue sticking out three feet, blue-faced fangs, long neck without face, belly disembowelled, headless and severed head... There is even the evil ghost covered in pus sores and flesh rotting away——

All kinds of ghosts are floating in the house, all of them are hideous, terrifying and weird!

The chilling ghost cries echoed endlessly, sometimes shrill and harsh, and sometimes uttering strange words.

——This scene is like a hell on earth!
An Qingyu raised the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

An Qingyu gave this illusion a name: Ghost Cry Hell.

This is a new illusion technique that she figured out after she was injured. It is assisted by spiritual power and Yin Qi.

Not only is it clearer and more concrete than before, but it also turns into a sound.

The illusion in the past was a rough way of blinding the eyes, which could only affect people's vision.

However, the current ghost crying hell can stimulate people's eardrums and affect hearing, making people feel like falling into hell, and only hear ghosts crying and howling wolves.

If you can advance to the late stage of Qi refining, illusion can even confuse people's sense of touch.

An Qingyu raised her hands again, trying to expand the range of the phantom formation. When the phantom formation broke through the room and surrounded the room, she felt powerless.

She had just succeeded in advancing, and it was the weakest moment. Her spiritual power was empty, so she was naturally weak.

Thinking of this, he removed the illusion.

He stood up and opened the door, only to find Fat Qiu'er passed out at the door, and Hua Sanduo squatting beside the door, his face pale.

Seeing An Qingyu coming out, Hua Sanduo looked at her resentfully: "Qingyu...you almost scared me to death..."

An Qingyu was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, but said relaxedly: "You have to have confidence in yourself, anyway, you have already reached the second level of Qi refining, at most you will be trapped by my phantom formation, and you will not be scared to death."

At most, he was scared and confused, right?

Hua Sanduo twitched twice, a little aggrieved, thinking of the horrible scene just now, still lingering in fear.

"That's what I said, but I want to hear some words of comfort from you."

An Qingyu kicked the fat ball on the ground, but failed to wake it up, she couldn't help frowning.

"It would be great if Fat Ball's cultivation could be improved, but I don't know what method the bamboo rat demon uses to cultivate."

She turned her head and asked Hua Sanduo again: "How do you usually cultivate?"

Hua Sanduo stood up slowly, rubbed the goosebumps on his arms that were frightened just now, and replied: "Our Tianshan sect is the only sect of cultivating immortals in the Zhongzhou mainland, and beginners will have a copy of "Little Spirit Art". Practice the acupoints on the human body to sense the great way of heaven and earth, so as to improve the realm, but because my family is a family of immortals, so in addition to "Xiaolingjue", I am also practicing a set of flying swordsmanship taught by my grandfather."

An Qingyu was rather disappointed, "The acupuncture points of the human body must be different from the mouse's acupuncture points, this won't help him, let's wait and see if we can get some inner pills for him to take."

Hua Sanduo also nodded, "Recently, Fat Qiu'er and I didn't dare to distract ourselves from doing other things because of your retreat, and I haven't practiced swords for a few days, now that you have advanced, I just have a chance to practice too. "

"Yeah? You've been here all this time? Don't tell me your senior brother and uncle haven't looked for you?" An Qingyu said in surprise.

Hua Sanduo shook his head, "Since they said they were going to the woods to catch monsters last time, they never went back to the inn, and I don't know what happened."

"They won't leave you behind, so go back to the Tianshan faction you mentioned first?"

"This is definitely not the case, because every spring, the Tianshan Sect selects a group of outstanding disciples to go to the spirit world. There are our Tianshan Sect's upper sect there, and that is the real Tianshan Sect. So now every Tianshan Sect is looking for opportunities everywhere. To hone their abilities and improve themselves, only when spring comes will everyone return to Tianshan to participate in the selection..."

An Qingyu suddenly realized, "It turns out that your Tianshan faction is just a small branch, but the treatment is really good, and you can go to the spirit world."

An Qingyu knew that the Zhongzhou Continent where she was now belonged to the Earth Realm. Besides that, there were also the Spirit Realm, Immortal Realm, and God Realm.

——It is said that the spirit world is a world of cultivating immortals, full of aura, full of gold and silver, and countless treasures of heaven and earth, anyone sent from the spirit world to the earth will be worshiped as a god.

This is naturally a world that any immortal cultivator yearns for, but there are barriers around the spirit world, and unless one reaches the foundation establishment stage, one cannot enter.

Hua Sanduo's expression did not show any yearning, rather than saying no yearning, it would be more appropriate to say that he gave up.

"My cultivation base has stayed on the second level of Qi Refining for a long time, and I will definitely not be able to go there."

An Qingyu patted her on the shoulder, "Take it easy, it's best not to rush forward in cultivation, since you don't feel it, just enjoy life, maybe one day you will build a foundation."

Hua Sanduo nodded, "Isn't it? It's useless to be anxious, anyway, that's how I am."

The corners of An Qingyu's eyes twitched, "Shouldn't you say something to boost your self-confidence at this time..."

Hua Sanduo laughed twice, "Okay, hurry up and eat something, and then go take a bath, you really stink."

An Qingyu was really hungry, picked up the food placed by the door and devoured it - she didn't eat for three whole days!
His body was indeed very smelly, and his clothes were all wet with sweat, but because the clothes were black, it couldn't be seen.

These sweats carried the toxins that were excreted from the body during the advanced stage, exuding an unbearable stench.

If Hua Sanduo hadn't been a person of cultivation, he would have covered his nose and vomited.

After An Qingyu finished her meal, she still felt a little hungry.

But no one here knows how to cook. The peasant woman who used to cook for the artisans has left, and there are only some tender cucumbers left in the kitchen. An Qingyu grabbed two cucumbers and ran to the well to wash them, and began to eat them. .

Suddenly remembering the fat uncle in the well, he asked Hua Sanduo: "Has that fat ghost come out recently?"

Hua Sanduo nodded, "He was not hurt as badly as you. He just showed his face yesterday, and his figure was all empty. He said something dejected about missing his wife and children, and then went back to the well."

An Qingyu took a bite of the cucumber and said, "I'll go to Shen's mansion to inquire after I take a bath."

"I'll go with you!"

An Qingyu shook her head, "No, I'm just going to explore first, you can stay at home, by the way, is the remaining money enough?"

Hua Sanduo took out the money bag, and took out some silver coins and bank notes from the money bag, "It didn't cost much to repair the house and break the furniture, but the medicinal materials you asked for cost a lot of money, and now that's all that's left."

Among the medicinal materials An Qingyu wanted were precious items such as thousand-year-old ginseng and hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, so the gold had already been spent almost, and now only a few dozen taels of silver were left.

However, although there are only a few dozen taels, if they just buy some food, it will be enough for them.

An Qingyu didn't take the money bag, "Put the money in your hands first, and then help me find some skilled craftsmen. I want to build a pharmacy, and I will find a way to get some money back later."

Hua Sanduo was stunned, "The pharmacy? Which room do you use?"

"Just use the largest hall in the front yard. Anyway, we don't need to receive guests. The side halls on both sides of the hall can be used as warehouses for storing medicines. One is for crude medicine and the other is for refined medicine. .”

Hua Sanduo thought for a while, "The warehouse for storing medicine is easy to talk about. You only need to put the cabinets and shelves for storing medicine in it. Anyway, it's a new house that has been repaired, but the medicine refining room doesn't know how to do it."

An Qingyu said: "Of course people in the industry understand this. You just need to tell them to add a groove for me, and say that it is used to attract fire when refining alchemy."

Hua Sanduo nodded, expressing that he would write it down, and he was very happy in his heart, feeling that he was helping An Qingyu with affairs like a family member.

Although Hua Sanduo's family has brothers and sisters, but because everyone is busy with cultivation, they usually only show affection on the surface, and the relationship is very weak.
