The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 201: Holding the Sword Again (Second Update)

"Comparable to the state of a saint!"

The Taoist priest of Qingqiu Mountain did not keep the secret any longer. In addition to surprise, he was also a little excited. He said, "The young master's skeleton is far beyond the ninth-level combat body. I haven't seen such a situation in thousands of years!"

After Qingqiu Mountain surrendered to Dayu, he lived in harmony with the world. He was an extremely old fox on Qingqiu Mountain with extensive knowledge.

"Oh?"

Li Tianzong's eyes glowed, a sign of a saint? !
Chen Hefang and the others were also shocked and looked at the Taoist priest from Qingqiu Mountain in astonishment.

"Generally, a ninth-grade combat body has at least one main bone in its body, which is like a golden iron divine jade, containing seven-colored dark light, and flowing patterns on the surface of the bone. This is the supreme grade!"

The old Taoist priest from Qingqiu Mountain said excitedly: "And the young master's body, all the bones in his body are like this!"

"72 main bones, all glowing with divine light, with patterns flowing, as if they were innate Dao patterns!"

"Once the young master embarks on the path of cultivation, he will surely soar to the sky, comparable to the reincarnation of a saint. On the path of cultivation, I am afraid he will move forward unstoppably, and breaking through realms will be as easy as eating and drinking water. No one can catch up with him!!"

After hearing the old Taoist's words, Chen Hefang and others came back to their senses and looked at Li Hao in surprise and joy.

This is the legendary qualification evaluation!
Normally, the ninth level combat body was already the limit, but Li Hao had divine bones all over his body and a divine appearance like jade, comparable to a saint!
The real saint has always been a legend. It is said that the saint lives in seclusion from the world and is extraordinary and otherworldly. Currently, the person who is closest to a saint in the Dayu Divine Dynasty is the immortal from the Qiandao Palace.

"Okay, okay, you are worthy of being my son!"

Li Tianzong laughed loudly, his face full of joy.

"Congratulations, Duke, congratulations, Madam!"

The old Taoist priest from Qingqiu Mountain bowed in congratulations and glanced at the child beside him. He was secretly surprised in his heart that such a talent was even more terrifying than that of the Emperor Dayu back then.

This branch of the Li family is full of talented people, and I'm afraid they will lead the Li family to glory again!

"As expected of the Tenth Master!"

"Well, Old Ten, you actually left us far behind!"

"Old Nine, you are outshined by Little Ten!"

The other "brothers" gathered excitedly and surrounded Li Hao. Some hooked their arms around Li Hao's shoulders, some hooked their arms around his neck, and some rubbed Li Hao's hair hard, all looking surprised and excited.

The ninth one, Li Junye, who is two years older than Li Hao, is now seven years old. He has already demonstrated amazing understanding and aptitude in the martial arts arena.

But he was still a child after all, and at this moment he was full of joy for Li Hao, saying: "Tenth brother, in another year, you will also be able to practice!"

"We won't be caught up by Old Ten, right?"

"It seems we have to work harder."

The other "brothers" all laughed.

Li Hao looked at these "uncles" surrounding him with a strange expression. Although he knew his current identity, he joined them and became a higher-ranking official.

But this kind of interaction still made him feel a little uncomfortable.

As his eyes swept over them and saw the genuine smiles on their faces, Li Hao could feel the seamless brotherhood between them.

However, this is also due to the teachings of the elders and the fact that we are brothers from the same mother.

Faced with the enthusiasm and excitement of these physical touches, Li Hao felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to skip it.

But he was attracting a lot of attention at the moment. If he skipped it, he was worried that there would be some differences between himself and himself in the "hosting" state. The direct comparison would reveal his flaws, so he had to endure it for the time being.

"You boy, I really belong to you!"

"How come he gets smarter as he gets younger? Could it be that mom is saving all the good foundation for later years?"

"You're itching for trouble, aren't you? Are you saying that Big Brother is the least intelligent?"

"Hey, don't pinch me, it hurts!"

Many "brothers" surrounded Li Hao, playing and fighting with him, and sometimes used Li Hao's body as a shield.

Li Hao was pulled here and there, and his head was messed up.

Seeing these cheerful and happy guys, he felt a little helpless. His mature soul prevented him from fitting in and dancing with joy. But for some reason, this kind of atmosphere made him feel comfortable and at ease.

On the same day, Li Tianzong announced the news and held a grand banquet.

The palace was bustling with activity.

Li Hao looked at the brightly lit God General's Mansion and the nine sons of the Li family who were laughing and chasing each other at the banquet, but his eyes were a little dazed.

Is this what the Li family used to look like?
Compared with those deserted courtyards with only women in them, it is much more lively now.

When they all get married, it will probably be the most lively time.

But for some reason, even though he was in the midst of all the excitement, Li Hao felt as if he was alone outside of it.

Although there was a lot of noise all around him, his heart was calmer and more composed than ever before. He even had the illusion that the night was getting colder.

Because he knew that such a happy scene was no longer seen in the Li family outside Muhe River.

And he is no longer a member of the Li family.

"Old Ten, what are you thinking about?"

The eldest brother, Li Xingbei, came over with a wine glass. He had previously toasted with the princes and nobles who had come to congratulate him. Now he walked around to Li Hao and said with a smile:

"Is the food not to your liking? Tell Big Brother and I'll have someone change the table for you."

"Isn't it possible that Old Ten is nervous because of the large crowd? Haha, there's no need to be nervous. There are three thousand guests, princes and nobles, and they have to keep their heads down when they see my Li family!"

The second oldest, Li Fengping, also came over and laughed, but spoke in a low voice.

After saying that, he raised his head and laughed heartily again.

"Just now, several dukes came to propose marriage to the tenth brother!" said the third brother Li Jianming with a smile. He was only about fifteen years old, and looked like a young man full of vigor and vitality.

Li Hao remembered that his third uncle seemed to have died while suppressing demons at the border. His only daughter went to the border to join the army early in order to avenge her father and had not returned to the Li Mansion for many years.

"That's right. Many people came to propose marriage to Lao Jiu at that time, but they were all rejected by my father."

Li Xingbei smiled and said, "Now that the tenth brother is more talented, even if the royal family comes to propose marriage, Dad will have to weigh it carefully."

They gathered around Li Hao and talked. Li Hao sat at the table and listened silently. When he saw a few figures coming from a distance, including the one that caught his eye, he turned his eyes away, then closed his eyes and sped over.

The sounds of drinking and chatting in my ears soon faded away, the scenery changed, and waves of weakness came over me.

Li Hao was surprised and saw himself lying on a bed.

He reached out to touch it, but his arm felt limp and powerless.

As if noticing that he had woken up, a dozing figure beside him woke up, jumped up immediately, and rushed to the bedside:
"Old Ten, how do you feel? Are you feeling better?"

Li Hao looked at the other person's face. Based on his memory of measuring bones previously, he remembered that the other person was the sixth son of the Li family, Li Ziye.

That is Li Yuanzhao's father.

However, at this moment, Li Ziye only looked to be in his early teens and still looked very immature.

But the concern and tension in his eyes were real.

Perhaps it was because of Li Yuanzhao, Li Hao felt a liking for him when he saw him, and asked in confusion: "Sixth Brother?"

"You finally woke up. Earlier at the banquet, a demon disguised as a prince nearly killed you."

Li Ziye seemed to be relieved, and immediately raised his voice and shouted outside the house.

The demon attacked... Li Hao felt a chill in his heart. He was only five years old, but the demon couldn't help but want to attack and kill him, and even managed to sneak into the God General's Mansion.

I don’t know if it’s because of the defects of the Dead River, or if the demon really has some special infiltration skills.

"Fortunately, Fourth Uncle took action in time and killed the demon." Li Ziye said to Li Hao.

Upon hearing this, Li Hao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Fourth Master had been paying attention to him, which was why he was able to take action in time.

"Brother and the others were also injured and are recovering." Li Ziye said.

Li Hao asked: "Except for me, are everyone else okay?"

"Everything is fine, just minor injuries. The demon's main target is you and my ninth brother."

Li Ziye said: "Ninth brother was standing far away, so his injury was not serious."

"That's good." Li Hao felt relieved.

At this time, as the news of his awakening spread, many people rushed over.

"Xiao Shi, are you okay?" Chen Hefang rushed over, looking nervous and concerned.

Li Hao also saw other "brothers", but there was no sign of Li Tianzong, so he asked, "Where's Dad?"

"Dad has gone outside the city to slay a demon and seek justice for you." said the second son, Li Fengping, with a bandaged forehead, looking injured.

Li Hao remained silent.

He knew that he had to practice hard.

Li Hao's gaze swept across their faces one by one, and then he closed his eyes, speeding up the recovery time.

When he opened his eyes again, Li Hao appeared in the side room with a drawing board in front of him. His body had healed and the feeling of weakness had disappeared.

The people gathered around him were gone, and the empty contrast made him pause for a moment, but he quickly adjusted himself, picked up the pen and started painting.

While painting, Li Hao was also thinking that it was time to expand his other skills and increase his art points as quickly as possible.

When he was halfway through painting, the door was pushed open and Li Hao saw that it was Li Hongzhuang who pushed the door open and walked in.

Now Li Hongzhuang is three years old and has also started to build her foundation.

Li Hao asked: "Have you completed the foundation building today?"

"Ah."

Li Hongzhuang nodded. Although she was only three years old, she was very well-behaved and sensible, and also showed her clever side. She said:
"Brother Shi, why do you paint every day?"

"Because I like it."

"So, brother Ten, do you like red makeup?"

“I like it, too.”

"Then you should spend more time with Hongzhuang." Li Hongzhuang came over, tugged at the corner of Li Hao's clothes, and said eagerly.

Li Hao was speechless. This little guy has even learned how to trick people with words.

"Okay, okay, brother will accompany you." Li Hao said, becoming more and more adapted and proficient in his current identity.

"Humph, Brother Ten only does his own thing and doesn't play with Hong Zhuang at all."

Li Hongzhuang pouted.

Li Hao immediately gave her a suggestion and told her to play hide-and-seek.

Li Hongzhuang's eyes lit up when she heard that. She agreed immediately and ran out.

Li Hao sent her away and continued painting.

When I got tired of working, I suddenly thought of going to the kitchen to accumulate some experience in cooking. It is quite easy to obtain skill points in the early stages.

By the way, you can find some dry firewood from the kitchen and learn how to carve.

Li Hao went out as soon as he thought of it, but he saw Li Hongzhuang standing at the door with a sullen look on her face. Li Hao asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"

"Brother Ten, why don't you come to see me!"

Li Hongzhuang said angrily.

Li Hao was speechless, and coughed lightly, "I've already looked for you. I looked everywhere but couldn't find you. I thought you were hiding here and came back again."

"Brother Ten is a liar."

Li Hongzhuang said angrily: "I was hiding in the flower bed in the yard at the door just now."

"..."

Li Hao was speechless. This clever little guy was really hard to fool.

"Come on, Brother Shi will take you to cook." Li Hao immediately changed the subject and took her to the kitchen.

After all, Li Hongzhuang was only a three-year-old child. Li Hao quickly aroused her curiosity and asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"You'll know when you go there."

Li Hao smiled and brought Li Hongzhuang to the kitchen. When the servants here saw Li Hao, they all hurriedly saluted.

Li Hao seemed very mature. He asked them to clear out the stove, then got the ingredients and asked Li Hongzhuang to join in cooking.

The children, especially the little girl, seemed to have a natural love for playing house. They soon forgot about Li Hao's previous tricks and rubbed and washed the ingredients with their little hands. They placed each washed ingredient neatly on the plate with extremely serious faces.

"Master..."

Many servants in the kitchen rushed over and stood by as if they were facing a great enemy, fearing that something might happen to Li Hao.

At the same time, they were also looking at this young master who was famous throughout the General's Mansion with curiosity from a close distance. On weekdays, servants like them in the kitchen were not qualified to see those shining young masters of the direct lineage.

As the fire started in the kitchen, Li Hao started cooking in an orderly manner.

"Brother, can you pour it in now?"

"Later, I'll let you fall again."

"it is good!"

"Brother, should the onion be added last?"

"Ah."

Li Hongzhuang stood aside, becoming Li Hao's number one assistant.

Li Hao smiled when he saw the increase in experience points. In this way, he should be able to accumulate four or five art points before he starts practicing at the age of six.

Not long after, the servants outside suddenly knelt down in panic:

"Master, calm down."

Two figures walked over, dressed in luxurious clothes. They were Li Tianzong and Chen Hefang.

Seeing Li Hao standing on a stool and frying in the kitchen, the couple were stunned for a moment. They rushed over after hearing the news from the servant.

At this moment, Li Tianzong had finished slaying the demon outside the city, took off his armor and changed into brocade clothes. It had been half a month since Li Hao was injured at the banquet.

"Xiao Shi, what are you doing?"

Li Tianzong couldn't help but ask: "Who taught you how to come to such a place?"

Li Hao saw his frown, and his heart tightened slightly. He thought of an excuse: "I want to cook for you."

Li Hongzhuang nodded and smiled, "Dad, Mom, we'll be ready soon. Do you want to eat?"

Li Tianzong and Chen Hefang were both speechless. Cooking was a servant's job, so how could they disrespect their own bodies?

However, seeing the nervousness in Li Hao's eyes and Li Hongzhuang's bright face, they looked at each other and their expressions softened.

Before they could speak, Li Hao lifted the lid and said, "The dish is ready, sprinkle some salt on it."

Li Hongzhuang immediately stopped smiling, her face tense, she held the salt jar and carefully scooped a few grains.

"not enough."

Then scoop another half spoonful.

"Not enough, give me more."

A large spoonful of salt was sprinkled down immediately.

Li Hao was speechless. He immediately used a spatula to pick up some of the food and said, "That's enough."

I thought that next time I would have to control the seasoning myself.

Then he laboriously scooped out all the food from the pot, glanced at the couple who were hesitant to speak, and said with a wry smile: "Would you like to try it?"

Li Tianzong glanced at him, then picked up a bunch of vegetables and meat and started eating. He took two bites and breathed softly because it was so hot. He nodded calmly and said, "Mm, it tastes good."

"Use chopsticks."

Chen Hefang was helpless. Men were too rough. She took the chopsticks handed to her by the maid, picked up some food and started eating, frowning slightly.

But seeing Li Tianzong beside him smiling, he could only say helplessly: "You have worked hard, it's rare that you have this kind of heart, go wash your hands and go back with us."

"Well, bring this dish with you. My son's cooking is very much to my liking. Bring me a pot of wine. I want to enjoy it slowly."

Li Tianzong ordered.

Li Hao was a little surprised. He didn't even have any cooking skills at all. The skills he had were all based on his experience as a single man in his previous life.

He also picked up a piece of meat and started eating it, but he almost vomited it out. It was still too salty!
Li Tianzong saw Li Hao's wrinkled face and laughed, saying:
"Use less salt next time. Don't waste the meat. It's very hard for us ordinary people to grow crops. We also have to risk being attacked by demons. We work from sunrise to sunset. We have to treat food well."

Li Hao was slightly stunned, then nodded slightly: "Got it."

Before leaving, he found two more pieces of wood to take with him.

"What are you bringing this for?" Chen Hefang asked in surprise.

Li Hao said seriously: "I want to carve a little man for you."

"Huh? Can you carve?" Li Tianzong walked in front and asked in surprise.

“Not yet, but I can learn.”

"You, don't focus all your attention on this. You have already measured your bones. You should read more about martial arts techniques. You will start practicing soon." Chen Hefang advised helplessly.

Li Tianzong nodded slightly: "Your main job is to practice martial arts. If you like these, you can have fun with them, but don't take them too seriously, understand?"

"knew."

Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that their attitude was not too tough and they were not that repulsive.

When he returned to the yard, Li Hao asked Zhao Bo for a knife and started carving.

With the inclusion of the carving path, Li Hao once again began his journey of accumulating experience.

And the figures he carved became more and more lifelike and lifelike.

time flies.

Li Hao has to jump time once every two days. After all, his five-year-old body, which has not been cultivated, has a body as strong as jade and is much stronger than an ordinary child, but his spirit is still not enough to sustain long-term sleep.

After two or three jumps, Li Hao was six years old.

During the process of his time jumping, the carving, painting, etc. that he had previously mastered were also accumulating experience according to the original trajectory.

Now, Li Hao has reached the fifth level of painting, the second level of cooking, and the third level of carving.

I have 5 more art skills!

"Xiao Shi, this is your first time practicing. Take a look at these weapons. Which one do you like?"

Li Tianzong brought Li Hao to the martial arts training ground. In addition to the many "brothers" practicing martial arts, there were also the direct descendants and illegitimate children of the Li family from other courtyards.

Li Hao saw a young face inside, who looked somewhat similar to Li He.

In addition, there is another face that looks like Li Fu.

Li Fu did not live in the main courtyard of the Divine General's Mansion. Instead, he was raised as Li Tianzong's illegitimate son and lived in the illegitimate courtyard.

Li Hao did not waste time. His eyes fell on these weapons and he immediately saw the second weapon placed, the long sword.

Li Hao stepped forward, picked up the sword, and swung it a few times, appearing to be quite skilled.

After all, he has mastered the art of kendo.

"Do you like swords? Then try it."

Li Tianzong smiled lightly and signaled the coach in the martial arts field to teach Li Hao the basic swordsmanship.

The other party came forward, politely, picked up a sword and practiced it, then said: "Young Master, have you remembered everything I just practiced? See how well you can practice it, let me see your understanding of the sword."

Li Hao immediately raised his hand and the sword light danced out.
