A Genius at Practicing the Breathing Method (1/3)
When Li Boyang pushed open the door to Qiwa's house
The first thing I saw was Qiwa's foolish father crying loudly in Hao Tao.
Li Jingshu's mother, along with a large group of women and children from the village, was constantly comforting Qiwa's mentally challenged father.
However, if you observe closely, you'll notice that a hint of worry always unconsciously appears on the faces of these older women.
Because Qiwa's experience was not an isolated case in Li Household Village.
Except for those who needed to stay behind, all the able-bodied young men in Li Household Village went to nearby villages.
They helped the Mountain Folk repair reservoirs and irrigation canals, trying to work together to resist the impending flood.
In comparison, the situation that Qiwa is in today is very likely to be what they will face in the future, which makes everyone worry.
"Boyang?"
"Big kid?"
"Non-Crying Child?"
When Li Boyang pushed open the door and entered, he instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
Fortunately, after noticing the old village chief behind Li Boyang, the group of gossipy old women didn't dare to act recklessly.
On the contrary, Li Boyang greeted everyone with a smile, quite familiar with the situation.
Then he went to the side of Qiwa's foolish father and quietly comforted him.
"Non-Crying Child, my son is back! My son is saved!"
Watching Li Boyang walk into the main house, Qiwa's foolish father finally broke into a smile through his tears, his words filled with absolute trust in his Non-Crying Child.
Even someone as mentally challenged as him was well aware of the changes Li Boyang had brought to the village.
After the Qiwa's foolish father broke the silence.
The villagers also gathered around the old village chief.
They started asking what new things Li Boyang had brought back this time. Of course, while they said they were asking, some of the bolder ones had already begun to secretly peek at the One-Horned Incantation at the door.
In this Savage Wilderness era, water buffalo were an extremely rare creature.
Not to mention, this is a water buffalo with a single Single Horn.
"Beer!"
He seemed to have noticed the gazes of the group of old women.
The One-Horned Incantation still had a silly expression, but its feet unconsciously took a few steps back warily.
The One-Horned Incantation is a genuine water god, and he doesn't want to be led by the nose or ridden by anyone other than Li Boyang.
The fact that the One-Horned Incantation acted so human-like also surprised everyone, including the old village chief.
I couldn't help but wonder where Li Boyang got such a water buffalo.
The old village chief, in particular, after realizing that this One-Horned Incantation was no ordinary animal, began to consider matters related to getting it to plow the fields and breed.
Compared to domesticated poultry and livestock, spirits have this advantage.
With sufficient intelligence, they do not need generations of domestication to quickly adapt to their new identities and jobs.
The only thing to consider is that these spirits often possess combat strength that matches their intelligence.
[I wonder if it would be willing to mate with a regular water buffalo?]
Unbeknownst to them, their old village chief had already begun considering breeding the One-Horned Incantation.
It wasn't until Li Boyang entered the main house and saw Qiwa was still struggling to moan under Li Jingshu's care, that he realized what was happening.
Only then did they realize how serious the other person's injuries were.
After escaping the immediate danger, almost all the ailments came rushing back.
Even someone like Qiwa, who was used to suffering since childhood, could only groan.
If it weren't for the Red-Skinned Silk Fur Robe, it's questionable whether Qiwa could have survived.
"Little brother, I..."
Upon noticing Li Boyang, Li Jingshu immediately stood up in a flustered manner.
"Don't say anything, I'll see for myself."
With a rare grim expression, Li Boyang stopped Li Jingshu from making excuses for Qiwa.
I did consider that you might share those pills with others.
"But I didn't expect you to be so foolish as to give away all the pills without even taking a single one."
Walking slowly to the Qiwa's side, Li Boyang made a hand Method Formula, and clearly visible Maxims Talismans appeared on the surface of his Red-Skinned Silk Fur Robe.
Under the blessing of this "Primordial Talisman Incantation".
Qiwa's complexion finally regained its rosy hue, and his injuries were quickly restored to their original state.
However, Li Boyang knew that all of this was only temporary.
Qiwa couldn't keep wearing this Red-Skinned Silk Fur Robe forever.
Li Boyang would never allow Qiwa to remain in this "neither born nor die" state for the rest of his life.
"Non-Crying Child, I—"
I was also taken aback by Li Boyang's gloomy face.
Qiwa tried to explain, but ultimately lowered his head guiltily, revealing an expression exactly like Li Jingshu's.
"You're two years older than the Big Girl, and you didn't eat much good food when you were little, so your Life Primordial Qi has already entered a period of decline."
"Furthermore, you haven't done much exercise, and your body's Qi and Blood are almost completely depleted."
"Those Qi and Blood Pill are specially made for you to replenish your Qi and Blood and blood and boost your Yuan Qi. They can gradually restore your physical condition."
"If you eat less, that's fine; I'll just put in more effort to train more."
"But apart from the two you ate in front of me at the beginning, you didn't eat any of the rest?"
After cursing a few times in frustration, Li Boyang continued, quite annoyed.
"Most importantly, your Breathing Method happens to be the fastest to learn and the best practiced in the village."
People smarter than you lack your perseverance, and people with more perseverance than you lack your intelligence.
Their Breathing Method is still in the stage of adjusting Qi and Blood, while your Breathing Method has already entered the stage of transforming Qi and Blood into Life Primordial Qi.
Li Boyang paused slightly at this point.
"But have you ever considered that you've long since passed the age of physical development?"
"Your vital Yuan Qi is declining, and your Qi and Blood are depleted. If you don't take Qi and Blood Pill, where will you get the extra Qi and Blood to transform into Life Primordial Qi?"
"And how many days have you gone without sleep?"
"Is your body made of iron? Can it withstand this kind of torment and exploitation?"
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, Qiwa didn't dare to refute Li Boyang. He just muttered something under his breath.
"But you didn't tell me the consequences would be this serious—"
His eyes widened immediately, as he heard Li Boyang suddenly raise his voice and shout.
"Qiwa, when did you learn to talk back?"
"Did she learn that from the Big Girl? She really only teaches bad things, not good ones!"
The Big Girl, caught in the crossfire for no apparent reason, stared wide-eyed.
She looked innocent as she circled between Li Boyang and Qiwa, feeling utterly wronged.
What does this have to do with me?
Since when has it become the case that whenever something bad happens in the village, everyone tries to shift the blame onto themselves?
