When we returned to Mine, it was already dark.
Li Yuan put the items exchanged for the second Trading Fair into the storage bag, returned to his small house, and ran Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art first, and then switched to Micro-Origin Meridian Guiding Art.
There was a strong mountain breeze at night, which made the wooden shed outside the house creak.
In the mountain col farther away, Demon Beast roared intermittently, one after another. Some were deep, some were sharp, and they came from several miles apart, making it particularly clear at night.
Li Yuan ignored it and closed his eyes to do his exercises.
Spiritual Qi slowly poured in from the area of Spirit Gathering Formation, and the meridians traveled for a week and sank into the Dantian. In the middle of the night, he went to Mine Cave again, took away the Fiend Qi in Fiend Gathering Bowl, and tempered his body as usual.
The next morning, when Li Yuan pushed the door open and went out, there was already someone outside the earthen wall.
It was a Wang Family monk. He patted the storage bag and found a bunch of things in front of him.
Various mining tools and supplies.
Steward Liu walked over from under the wooden shed and glanced at the things on the car.
"I came earlier than usual this time."
The leader Qi Refining Fifth Layer monk waved his hand, looking a little tired.
"There is a shortage of people on the front line, and we have to get help from behind as soon as possible. When the things are delivered, we also have to take a few people with us."
After he finished speaking, he glanced around Mine, clicked on the names of two people, and also clicked on Cultivator Qian, who was on duty at Detection Array.
Cultivator Qian turned pale and wanted to open his mouth, but in the end he didn't dare to speak.
Steward Liu frowned.
"Is the front line so tight?"
"Tight." The monk squatted down and patted the wooden box at his feet.
"The first two strongholds are extracting people, Mine is fine here."
As he spoke, he took out a booklet from his arms.
"The monthly salary is distributed together. Last time Mine blocked the Li Family monks, there were additional rewards, so they will be included in the calculation."
He first paid the bill to Steward Liu, then turned to another page and moved towards Li Yuan.
"Li Yuan."
Li Yuan walked over.
The monk counted out Spirit Stone and put it on the lid of the wooden box.
"This is a monthly salary. The last time I resisted Li Family monks, merit will be recorded according to the effort. A total of forty yuan Spirit Stone."
Forty yuan Spirit Stone is not too little.
Li Yuan Check it out and put it into the storage bag.
Next to him, Sun Liang also received his share. His face looked much better than the previous days. Although it was still a little pale, he stood firm and no longer limped when he walked.
The Cultivator Qian seemed to have only received a few pieces of Spirit Stone, but his attention was no longer focused on it.
The king Lineage didn't stay much longer at Mine. After ordering people and handing over things, he quickly left with the people who were taken away.
Steward Liu stood under the wooden shed, looked at the retreating figure, and shook his head.
Li Yuan turned around and went to Mine Cave.
Fiend Gathering Bowl has been placed deep in the past few days, and the Fiend Qi collected are even more than before. Li Yuan walked to the secluded branch road in a familiar way, took off Fiend Gathering Bowl, and sat down cross-legged.
As soon as he realized it, he equipped Fiend Gathering Bowl.
Wisps of gray-black Fiend Qi gushed out from the bowl and poured into the limbs and bones along the meridians. The familiar dull pressure spread again, the muscles tightened little by little, and the flesh and blood under the skin seemed to be repeatedly pressed by an invisible force.
Li Yuan Hold your breath steadily and let Fiend Qi wash through your body.
After the first round, there are still some Fiend Qi accumulated in the bowl.
Li Yuan did not stop and continued to trigger the second round.
This time, Fiend Qi sank deeper.
The areas on the shoulders, back, under the ribs, and around the leg bones that have been tempered repeatedly are no longer as stiff and resistant as they were at the beginning, but can adapt faster. Fiend Qi rushes over again and again, and the body instinctively contracts, adapts, relaxes, and contracts again.
When the last ray of Fiend Qi was exhausted, Li Yuan slowly opened his eyes.
His chest rose and fell slightly, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back.
At this moment, Panel emerged.
[Fiend Gathering Bowl (white) permanent conditions have been met]
[Is it permanent?]
Li Yuan stared blankly.
During this period, I collected intermittently, Body Tempering, and finally the amount was full.
"Yes."
[Permanent success]
[Fiend Qi Body Tempering (white) has become Permanent Affix]
[Equipment has been consumed]
Fiend Gathering Bowl in the palm shook slightly, then turned into a gray light and disappeared into Li Yuan's body.
The next moment, the remaining Fiend Qi in the body seemed to have found its home. It no longer just wandered around briefly, but sank between the skin, flesh and bones, turning into a very light foundation.
The dull feeling quickly receded and was replaced by a more solid feeling of tightness.
Li Yuan raised his hand and slowly clasped it with his five fingers.
The muscles are contracted more steadily than before, and the subtle pressure resistance under the skin is also clearer. The changes are not exaggerated, but they are real.
Li Yuan stood up, moved his shoulders and back, and moved Micro-Origin Meridian Guiding Art again. The area around the micropulmonary veins was still softer than usual, and the advancement speed was not affected.
It was already afternoon when we came out of Mine Cave.
Sun Liang was passing by with a mining pick, and when he saw Li Yuan, he grinned.
"Deputy Captain Li, my injury is almost done."
He raised his arms and twisted his waist. Although his movements were not yet neat, they were no longer as weak as before.
Li Yuan nodded.
Steward Liu also saw Li Yuan, walked out from under the shed, looked at him twice, and clicked his tongue.
"You are so diligent. If you are not practicing in the house, you are diving into Mine Cave. Mine After so many years, I have never seen you like this."
Li Yuan responded casually, "Idleness is idleness."
Steward Liu smiled and was about to say something else when Detection Array suddenly lit up.
The monk on duty surnamed Lu was already more alert than last time, and immediately shouted, "There are monks approaching, five of them."
Several people in Mine immediately raised their heads.
Li Yuan and Steward Liu walked side by side to the earth wall and looked outside.
Five monks were walking from the broken Stone Slope way. Their clothes were messy, neither Wang Family nor Li Family's standard clothes.
The leader was a middle-aged man in his forties, tall and thin, with a short beard and a bulging storage bag hanging on his waist. The four people behind him were also carrying packages, and two of them were rushing to carry Short-Legged Beast.
None of them have high cultivation levels, the highest one is only Qi Refining Fifth Layer.
When those people were still some distance away from Mine, they took the initiative to stop. The leader raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions.
"Fellow Daoists, don't get me wrong, we are Traveling Merchant, we are passing by here, no offense intended."
Steward Liu did not relax and asked through the earth wall, "What are you doing passing by Mine?"
The middle-aged man smiled with me.
"Ask someone."
As he spoke, he took out a rolled piece of paper from his arms, unfolded it and held it in his hand.
On the paper was drawn a portrait of a middle-aged monk with ordinary facial features and a scar on the left eyebrow bone. It looked like a wanted portrait.
"If you have seen this man or know where he is, just take it and bring it to us, and we will be very grateful."
Li Yuan glanced at the portrait from a distance and had no impression.
Steward Liu didn't let them get close and only asked, "Where are you coming from?"
"He used to run goods with us, but he packed up the goods and ran away."
The smile on the middle-aged Traveling Merchant's face faded a little, "It's not a small thing. We chased it all the way here. If you have seen it, please pay attention."
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand again.
"If not, then we won't bother you."
Steward Liu nodded, neither agreeing nor rejecting.
Those Traveling Merchant also realized what was going on and did not move forward any further. They turned around and left, driving Short-Legged Beast to the other end of the mountain road.
When the figure walked away, the alertness in Mine dropped.
Li Yuan looked at the direction those people left and asked, "Traveling Merchant Why did you come here?"
Steward Liu shook his head.
"Before, Demon Beast made a big fuss, and many commercial routes outside were cut off. Loose Cultivator Market was almost useless. Now Wang Family and Li Family are fighting again. Many Traveling Merchant have no place to do business, so they are stranded nearby."
He paused and added another sentence.
"Actually, these people are not idle either. I heard that they have set up a small trading place of their own. It is not big in scale and is like the prototype of a market. The stuff is probably more complicated than Rogue Cultivator. Some are real and some are fake."
Li Yuan turned to look at him.
"Have you been there?"
"I've never been there." Steward Liu waved his hand, "I've only heard about that place. I don't know exactly where it is or what the rules are. If I really want to recommend it to you, it will easily lead you into trouble."
Li Yuan nodded and did not ask any further questions.
Just jotting down the message is enough.
The most important thing right now is cultivation and Talisman Making.
In the evening, Mine became quiet again. The low roar of Demon Beast came from the distant mountains again, just like the previous nights, it was very far away.
Li Yuan returned to the low house, took out Talisman Paper and Spirit Ink, first drew two Fireball Talisman, then sat down cross-legged, and started running Hundred Meridians Origin Return Art again.
Spiritual Qi enters the body, the meridians circulate, and the spiritual power in the Dantian settles down little by little.
