Health Martial Saints: Start With Soaking Your Feet

Chapter 49 Forty Nine: Hairpin

A week passed in the blink of an eye.

No one ever came to the Lantern Festival.

Li Suian's life has returned to normal, except that he has no fish to eat, and he can't wait to go outside the North City three times a day.

the rest of the time.

It's not practicing swords, it's practicing swords.

After the "Basic Sword Art" reached the LV9 level of harmony between man and nature, it was quite different from before.

In the previous saber practice, no matter whether it was meticulous, smooth, or superb, they were still in the stage of moves and saber techniques. Now they have completely surpassed the level of saber moves and saber techniques. It's hard.

Mu Zhou does not give up on "Heaven and Man", and recently he often runs here.

Watching him practice the sword openly, trying to understand the mystery of the unity of man and nature.

He not only came here by himself, but also brought his wife to visit. His wife was bored at home alone, so Li Suian also encouraged Xu Ying to go out and walk more. This is good for physical and mental health, and it is also good for the growth of the fetus in the womb.

Xu Ying followed his advice.

Worried that she would be bored, Li Suian even found Xu Ying a job to relieve her boredom.

Ask her to enlighten Narcissus and Xiaolu.

(The former is martial arts, the latter is writing.)

Originally it was just a casual mention, but Xu Ying actually agreed.

"The 'Fu Liu Jin with the Wind' I practice is a family-inspired martial art. It emphasizes agility and agility. It is suitable for both men and women. Now I am the only one in my Xu family. I have the final say on whether it is rumored or not. I am very happy. I like Little Narcissus, so it’s okay to pass it on to her.”

Li Suian's heart skipped a beat, and he remembered Mu Zhou's swift movement, "Brother Mu's movement was also passed down to him by his siblings, right?"

"That's right. Husband's physical skills are not perfect yet, does Brother Li want to learn too? I'll teach you."

Li Suian was very moved, he laughed and said: "Then let's wait until your body recovers after giving birth."

So Narcissus and Xiaolu were asked to present Shuxiu in a serious manner, with a total of hundreds of taels of silver, which can be regarded as supplementing their household in disguise.

From then on, Xu Ying became the husband of the two girls.

As the two families moved around frequently, the relationship became closer.

Li Suian doesn't have many friends, so he is equally happy.

today.

Si, who had disappeared for a long time, also came to Ruyifang again.

She looked a little tired, with bloodshot eyes, as if she hadn't had a good rest for a long time.

Not only her, but also several night watchmen, who were also dressed in dust.

It's not a restaurant at this time, and the workers are all dozing in the corner.

Fu Qingnian, who was doing accounts at the counter, immediately came up to greet him after seeing it.

"Where's Li Suian?"

"My lord, my young master is in the backyard..."

"take me."

Si Ye waved her hand behind her, "Mr. Shen, take your brothers to rest here, and I will pay for today's expenses."

"Yes, my lord." Shen He bowed.

Fu Qingnian saw the opportunity and shouted: "It's a blessing for the adults to come to Ruyifang, how dare you ask the adults to pay. Xiao Cheng, hurry up and greet the adults."

"My lords, please go upstairs to the private room." The clever Xiao Er immediately ran up.

"My lord, please follow me."

Si also followed Fu Qingnian to the backyard.

As soon as I entered the backyard, I found that the environment had changed a lot.

The old plum tree that was affected has disappeared, replaced by a newly transplanted pear tree.

The collapsed courtyard wall was expanded and became more spacious.

In front of a stone table in a corner of the courtyard, there were a man and a woman sitting. The man she knew was the mysterious swordsman Mu Zhou. She has an outstanding femininity, with a big belly and a graceful demeanor, she should be his wife.

There was a small table next to it, and a small man with braids was writing on the table with a sad face under the supervision of a woman.

Her gaze couldn't help staying on the little man for a little longer.

Another girl was standing on the side learning to stand. She also had a bitter expression on her face and her body was trembling, as if she might fall down at any time.

As for Li Suian, he practiced swords in the courtyard.

Si also only took one look, and couldn't help frowning.

"How did his sword technique become like this?"

In her eyes, every time Li Suian swings a knife, people feel stiff, clumsy and slow, and every move and style becomes rigid, like a beginner, making people unable to look directly at him.

However, after looking at it a few more times, my heart was shocked again, and I immediately discovered the difference.

Every time Li Suian swung his knife, it was as if he was exerting strength while lifting a heavy burden. Although the movements were slow, and some movements were even distorted, there was a slight explosion that pierced the air above the tip of the knife, and the knife breath on the knife made a "呲呲" sound.

After practicing for a while, Li Suian was already dripping with sweat.

At this time.

After swinging the knife once, Li Suian finally exhausted himself and couldn't even hold the knife, and fell to the ground with a "bang".

"Hoohoo~"

He gasped for breath, and felt that every part of his body was not sore and limp, the top of his head was steaming with white air, and his underwear was even more wet like splashing water.

The muscles of Li Suian's whole body were twitching unnaturally, and he walked to the table in a nonchalant manner.

Narcissus, who had been familiar with this situation for a long time, hurriedly finished standing, ran over quickly, and handed him a thermos cup.

"Master, drink tea."

She also took the opportunity to be lazy and take a rest.

Li Suian picked up wolfberry ginseng tea and poured it into his belly.

"This practice is too intense." Li Suian thought to himself.

After practicing for a week, the progress has only increased by 7%.

It's too slow compared to before.

Since opening the Ancestral Aperture of the Divine Court, he has been nourished and tempered day and night by the source energy of the heavens and the earth. This body has become stronger and stronger, and his eyes are shining brightly.

He can feel progress every day, getting stronger every day, and there is no bottleneck at all.

If it is the previous sword technique, you won't be tired after practicing for a day.

But now with this intensity, he was exhausted after only half an hour of practice.

Not only did he have to bear the pressure of a radius of ten feet outside his body, but the high pressure of energy inside his body made him overwhelmed, as if his body was about to explode.

Every seemingly clumsy swing of the knife actually required his whole body to complete it. Limbs, chest, waist, legs and buttocks, and even fingers and toes, all of them are exerting force. Turtle-snake qi moves rapidly under high pressure in the body, bringing unimaginable tempering, and viscera, bones, qi and blood are also involved.

The consumption of each swing of the knife is more than a hundred times compared to before.

He felt that the saber technique had gradually changed from martial arts to practice.

Therefore, even if you haven't practiced the Tortoise and Snake Breathing Strength recently, the progress of the fourth level of the exercise is still growing rapidly.

There are 80~100 points of progress every day, which is only less than eating fish.

Based on this calculation, even if there is no fish to eat, he can complete the fourth level of body tempering training within three months.

"I don't know what it will look like after the basic sword art is broken?"

He is now more and more interested in this basic sword art.

Mu Zhou and his wife had already discovered Si Ye's arrival, and after greeting her, they took the initiative to say goodbye and leave.

Li Suian took a few breaths, cupped his fists in salute, "See you, my lord."

"It's been a long time, my lord. I wonder how you've been doing recently?"

Si Ye paused slightly: "...I'm fine. Why hasn't there been any movement in your wine shop for so long? Could it be that my words are deaf to your ears?"

Li Suian had been prepared for a long time, how could she give her a chance to go crazy, "My lord misunderstood, we have been acting."

"The original plan was to expand on the basis of the previous winery. It was discovered recently that the expansion is too difficult, because the nearby buildings have completely occupied the space. Even if it is expanded, the scale is limited."

"If you choose another address to build a new winery, it will take time and effort, and it will also cost money. The best way is to buy a mature winery and rebuild on this basis. The Sun Family Winery, which happens to be in the eastern suburbs of the city, has It is almost abandoned. Uncle Fu is negotiating with them now, hoping to buy this old winery. Relocate the winery and expand it, so the first problem will be solved naturally.”

"The suburbs of the outer city, why choose the east of the city?"

"My lord, it's because of the water quality. There is a rule in winemaking, called 'six musts for winemaking'. That is, 'the rice must be in good order, the koji tiller must be in time, the blaze must be clean, the water spring must be fragrant, the pottery must be good, and the fire must be in order'. This is our way of making wine, in which the water spring must be fragrant, which means that to make good wine, the water used must also be good."

"The east of the city is connected to the Tianpeng Mountains, and the environment is not as complicated as the north of the city. There is pure snow water flowing from the melting ice and snow in the depths of the snow-capped mountains. This water flows down from the mountains, gathers hundreds of rivers, and finally merges into the Kun River and the Long River. , very suitable for wine making.”

Si also heard the words and remained silent.

Li Suian observed his words, "My lord, but what's the problem in the east of the city?"

Si also shook her head, "Recently, there have been some changes in the east of the city. I'll go and have a look with you later. It's best to solve the problem as soon as possible."

"In such a hurry?"

Si also couldn't refuse her words: "It's just today."

"yes."

Li Suian could feel her urgency, and although she couldn't understand it, she prepared neatly.

Immediately called Shiqian, ready to drive away.

"Take my car." Si Ye stopped.

Li Suian doesn't care.

When they came to the front building, Shen He and the others, who were resting upstairs, found that Si had also come out. He immediately stepped forward and asked, "My lord, do you need me to accompany you?"

"No, you are tired too. Take a rest today, go back and have a good rest after eating."

When I came to the door, I saw a black four-wheeled box carriage with four horses parked at the door. It was a bit similar to the aristocratic carriage in Western Europe in the past. The body was exquisitely decorated and had glass windows. Lantern tokens and a family crest that Li Suian did not recognize.

The horse that pulls the cart is not an ordinary thing, it is a night-scale horse with the blood of a monster. It is tall and has smooth scales on most of its body. There are barbs on its knees, and it can travel thousands of miles a day.

The space outside the car looks small, but the interior is very spacious, and a fresh fragrance blows over your face.

Li Suian was about to sneak in to have a look, but was stopped by Si Ye, "Who let you in, you take the front shaft of the car."

Li Suian exchanged glances with the old man sitting on the shaft of the car, and the old man grinned at him, looking like an easy-going person.

"...I can't drive."

It's a joke, the carriage already has a driver, and my master can't do it if he is asked to sit next to the driver.

"You were not allowed to drive."

"It's too crowded, I can't get used to it."

Si also choked, "Then you can ride a horse."

"I'm not good at equestrian skills. When I ride a horse in the city, I'm afraid of bumping into passers-by."

Si Ye: "..."

Li Suian spread his hands and stepped back, "I'll just take my car."

Said to go back to drive.

Si also said angrily, "Come up soon."

"yes."

Sliding in, looking left and right, clicking clicks like a grandma entering the Grand View Garden.

Si Ye: "..."

The carriage started quickly and galloped along smoothly and quickly.

Surprisingly comfortable, there is a shock absorption system?

Si Ye stared at him unkindly, as if warning him not to touch and look at him randomly.

Li Suian didn't realize it, and didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

When he had seen enough, he groped around, found a box, opened it, and handed it over.

"What does this mean?" Si also glanced at it, and her brows turned pale.

"My lord, don't get me wrong. This hairpin was recently found in the market. It is said to be made of Sanyang warm jade, and the style is not bad. Of course, it is not as good as the one before my lord. The main reason is that I accidentally broke it that day. My lord's hairpin, I really feel sorry for him, this hairpin is my apology."

Si was also taken aback, and stroked her hair.

Since I left that day, I have been busy all the time, and I can't even go home. Therefore, the hair on her head was simply tied with a headband, which she had long felt inconvenient.

Instinctively, he reached out to take it, but froze for a moment.

Thinking of Xu Congrong's small report on the way back that day, his face turned red, and he felt a dryness rushing up his neck, and the evil spirit disappeared, and he couldn't help feeling a little strange emotion in his heart.

"No need, take it back."

Li Suian insisted: "I don't have any other intentions, just make amends. If adults feel inappropriate, then choose another item next time."

Si couldn't help but take another look at the hairpin, the style was really pretty, a style that I had never seen before.

He stared at Li Suian's complexion carefully for a few more times, and saw his calm demeanor and clear eyes.

I thought, he has already talked about this point, if I push back, I'm afraid I will misunderstand.

"Forget it, I'll take it."

Li Suian delivered the gift box.

He laughed straight in his heart.
