Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

"Alas! Life will be difficult in the future! I remember when I first moved here a few years ago, three months of rent only cost one spiritual stone!"

Jia An, who also came out to pay the rent, leaned against the door frame and sighed.

The current rent growth rate in Baishifang City is really scary.

"Does Fellow Daoist Jia know what's going on?" Xu Mu turned around and asked.

"It's not because of the Soul Refining Sect! Now the Qinghe Sword Sect on the front line is retreating steadily, and many practitioners are running back for safety! This is to make room for us!"

Jia An sighed again.

He has begun to consider moving further away.

Jia An's wife Li Moqing came out of the room, holding a bamboo dustpan in her hand.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, I just roasted the sunflower seeds! Take them and try them!"

Li Moqing smiled and handed the dustpan to Xu Mu.

A unique fragrance of nuts permeates the dustpan.

"Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Li! I'll return the dustpan to you later!"

Xu Mu did not shirk.

This thing is not worth much, and it seems hypocritical to push it.

"No rush! If you think it tastes good, come back and get it after you finish eating!"

Li Moqing's chubby face was full of smiles.

Ever since Xu Mu sent the Qi Gathering Pill, Li Moqing's attitude has gotten better day by day.

Just when Xu Mu was about to enter the house to put sunflower seeds, Ya Ren Ren had already arrived at the door of the Li brothers.

Xu Mu stopped and turned around to look!

Creak!

The door opened from the inside, and two heads stuck out from the inside at the same time, one up and one down, as if connected together.

The face was pale without a trace of blood, and the proportion of black pupils was far greater than normal. At first glance, it looked like there were no whites in the eyes, and they were horrifyingly empty.

A hand that was whiter than a woman's, holding a low-grade spiritual stone, stretched out from inside.

"Two spiritual stones next month!"

After taking the spirit stone, Yaren said with some fear, took a few steps back, turned around and walked towards the next house.

The Li brothers stared at Yaren, turning slowly until he reached the door of the next house, and then suddenly turned back to look at Xu Mu not far away.

for a time,

Six eyes facing each other!

"hey-hey!"

The corners of their mouths twitched into sneers at the same time, with a hint of teasing in their eyes, like a big cat looking at a little mouse.

Xu Mu's heart skipped a beat.

Do these two people know that I killed Sun Daocheng?

No, it's impossible!

He acted very carefully at that time. He had worked hard for several days in advance, and with the invisibility technique, it was impossible for anyone to know.

The two are most suspicious!

After all, the three of them may have conspired to harm him.

Now that one of them died suddenly, it was normal to doubt him.

Xu Mu suppressed the throbbing in his heart, smiled calmly, and smiled at the two of them.

He is no longer the weakling he was when they first met. If the two of them really dare to do something, he doesn't mind letting them go around in pain.

Facing Xu Mu's reaction, the two narrowed their eyes slightly.

Probably surprised by his reaction.

No one in the entire alley was not terrified of the two of them.

I still remember how Xu Mu was frightened when they first met.

The two of them took another deep look at Xu Mu, then slowly retracted their heads and closed the door.

Xu Mu also turned around and entered the house.

in the room.

The wife was feeding Xiao Ling'er, with a smile on her lips and a face full of kindness.

Xu Mu put the dustpan on the table, bent down and looked at the little guy eating hard, with a smile on his face as well.

The originally wrinkled and red body has gradually unfolded, and it has become a bit white and tender like a baby.

"This is from fellow Taoist Li next door. You can try it. I'll go to the kitchen to see if the meat is ready!"

"Um!"

Ye Yingying nodded.

Xu Mu entered the kitchen.

The earthen pot was making a gurgling sound, and the air was filled with the rich aroma of meat.

Open the lid, and inside there is a thick sauce, and pieces of meat the size of walnuts are floating and rolling up and down.

Xu Mu picked up a piece, blew the hot air into his mouth.

The meat is fragrant and has been stewed until it becomes crispy.

"Although there are not as many seasonings as in the previous life, the material of the monster meat itself is already excellent! It can easily kill those so-called top-grade Wagyu beef!"

Xu Mu turned around and opened the lid of the big pot. Inside was a small pot of half-cooked spiritual rice.

The grains are crystal clear, and the faint fragrance is refreshing.

Scoop up a small spoonful and put it in your mouth.

Soft and sweet!

"This is called cultivating immortality!"

Xu Mu sighed in his heart.

It's not like before, every day in the name of immortal cultivator, the food was worse than that of ordinary people.

He filled a large bowl of spiritual rice, put the meat on it, poured the soup over it, and Xu Mu carried it into the bedroom.

"I'll hold Xiao Ling'er, you eat some food first!"

"Um!"

Ye Yingying nodded and handed Xiao Ling'er, who was chewing her thumb in her arms, to Xu Mu.

"Mr. Sir, if we eat like this, wouldn't it be too wasteful?"

Seeing a large bowl full of spiritual rice and nearly half a kilogram of animal meat, Ye Yingying said with some distress.

In the past, they used to eat spiritual rice in small bowls as big as their fists. Monster meat was often mixed with other meat for stew.

If you are not full, supplement it with ordinary food.

"Didn't I tell you? I will never make you suffer again. You can eat as much of this stuff as you want! It doesn't matter if you eat it with your belly open!"

Xu Mu smiled while shaking Xiao Ling'er in his arms.

"Really?"

"of course!"

Ye Yingying's happy eyes turned into crescent moons.

She ate the food in the bowl until her stomach was slightly bloated.

"Ms. sir, I can't eat any more!"

Ye Yingying handed the remaining half of the bowl to Xu Mu with satisfaction.

"Xiao Ling'er has gone to bed, you should lie down and rest too!"

Xu Mu took the rice bowl, reached out to wipe the sauce from the corner of Ye Yingying's mouth, left the bedroom and entered the kitchen.

Following Ye Yingying's remaining half bowl, Xu Mu finished three large bowls in a row.

My stomach was full from eating, so I stopped.

There is still a small portion left in the pot, ready to be saved for dinner at night.

After putting away the dishes and chopsticks, Xu Mu went to the utility room and took out the sword-study body.

[Thunder Swordsmanship]!

Although reason told him that his current strength should not be much different from that of the Li brothers, this feeling of being missed always made him feel unsure and always wanted to do something.

It's best to improve your strength!

He has been increasing his firebending skills recently, and is now a [firebending master; 514/3200], and his strength has improved a lot compared to before.

But he still felt it wasn't enough.

Just relying on firebending is not enough!

"Fire-bending can only be used for attack, and it still lacks defensive power!"

"It's not practical to buy defensive magic weapons!"

The price of magic weapons is already expensive, and defensive magic weapons are the most expensive among them.

Although Xu Mu made some money, he was still far from buying a defensive weapon.

In the end, after much deliberation, I could only work on my physical fitness.

It just so happens that the Light Body Technique is limited by one's physical constitution, and cannot display its full speed either.

While improving the physique, it is also equivalent to increasing the speed, killing two birds with one stone.

That's why Xu Mu dug out this book [Thunder Swordsmanship].

In fact, when he was buying books, he had the idea of ​​strengthening his body.

Open the book and look at it page by page.

It took me more than half an hour to read it from beginning to end, and I got a rough understanding of this swordsmanship.

There are three types of sword moves in Thunder Swordsmanship, namely running thunder style, flashing thunder style, and thunder style.

Each formula has twelve variations.

In addition to moves, there are also matching breathing methods to strengthen physical fitness, coordinate body strength, and unleash the full power of swordsmanship.

Without the breathing method, swordsmanship would be nothing more than a show.

Without swordsmanship, breathing techniques can only be used to warm up.

Adding the two together is [Thunder Swordsmanship]!

After reading it, Xu Mu wanted to try practicing, but unfortunately he searched around the house and couldn't find a sword for practice.

"When I bought the book, I forgot to buy a sword!"

Xu Mu smiled bitterly and laughed at himself.

Finally thinking about it, I decided not to use it at all and start gesticulating with my bare hands.

I just practiced with the secret book a few times, but I still feel that I am not good at it, and the name of the sword skill is not displayed in the skill bar.

"By the way, I don't know if this will work!"

Xu Mu snapped his fingers, and a ball of flame flew out, twisting and changing in front of his eyes, and finally turned into a dark red sword covered with flame patterns.

This is a newly realized ability after recently improving my firebending skills. It has the same effect as the compressed fireball, but is more stable than that.

It was also designed by Xu Mu to overcome the attack speed problem of compressed fireballs. After being condensed into a weapon, the speed will be much faster when shooting towards the enemy.

After contacting the enemy, it can also be detonated.

It’s just that Xu Mu hasn’t tried it and doesn’t know its specific power.

The long sword flew around for a while before stopping in front of him. Xu Mu stretched out his hand to hold it.

When the skin touches the sword hilt, it does not feel hot. Instead, it feels warm, which is quite comfortable.

"good!"

Xu Mu nodded with satisfaction.

If the firebending skills continue to improve, it is likely that the temperature of the flame will be completely controlled and become the same as a real weapon.

At that time, it will be the true yin that generates yin.

However, Xu Mu waved the long sword a few times and immediately realized the problem.

This sword looks like an ordinary sword, but in fact the blade is very fragile. It will collapse if you swing it hard. If it hits a hard object, it may explode in an instant.

"Sure enough, I'm still too naive! If you want to truly turn the imaginary into reality, I'm afraid it will take the foundation building stage or even the golden elixir stage to do it!"

Legend has it that there is a peerless strong man whose sword energy can last for hundreds of years.

It is estimated that only then will he be able to use flames as a real weapon.

“But it’s enough just for practice and to find the feeling!”

With the sword in his hand, Xu Mu practiced the thunder sword technique again.

For a moment, the sword wind roared in the room!

Although the movements are not standard, they are still in style.

With or without a sword, the feeling is completely different.

After practicing the breathing method reluctantly, Xu Mu opened the system again to check.

[Introduction to Thunder Swordsmanship; 1/100]!

Xu Mu felt happy, took a deep breath, and immediately started adding points.

To avoid surprises, only ten points were added the first time.

[Introduction to Thunder Swordsmanship; 11/100]!

A small piece of vague memory appeared in my mind.

At the same time, there was a faint feeling of hunger in my abdomen.
