This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 18 Has my golden finger arrived?

For three to five days, Xiang Yuan was obsessed with cultivation and couldn't extricate himself.

Every time Lao Liu came to see me, he said he was poisoned by gas and needed to rest.

He practiced swordsmanship for two hours every day, incorporating his imitation of Liu Jingsheng into the Five Tigers Breaking Door Sword. He spent the rest of the time practicing the Wuxiang Seal Method, making rapid progress, opening up almost one acupoint a day.

After a few more days, the Ren Meridian will be fully open, and Qi refining will be highly accomplished, then you can move on to the awakening stage.

Just in case, you have to buy a pill before breaking through to ensure success in one go.

The vital energy of heaven and earth is deficient, heaven and earth are incomplete, practitioners are incomplete, and external tonic pills are indispensable.

The Wuxiang Seal Method can turn decay into magic. Xiang Yuan felt as if he was assisted by a god right after he started practicing. The reason why opening up the Ren Meridian is as easy as eating and drinking water is all due to the peculiarity of this method.

Wash the marrow and cut the bones, reverse the meridians and change the acupoints.

In addition, the enhanced soul of 'Zhu Yin Zhu Shen' also played an indispensable role in making up for Xiang Yuan's lack of spiritual deficiency and making him worthy of his current physical body.

He felt terribly strong!
It's like this when you suddenly gain supernatural powers. Just go out and get beaten up, then calm down and you'll be fine.

What calmed Xiang Yuan down was not the beating, but the headache. His headache had become more and more serious in the past few days. He felt that his soul was out of control and seemed to be split into three.

It is not impossible for the soul to split. There are corresponding cases in the incomplete memory fragments of the spiritual light. However, this is a skill that only those with great supernatural powers can master. I have never heard of any young person in the Qi Refining Stage who can split the soul into three.

To find out the root cause, it was found that the headache was caused by time travel. Xiang Yuan asked the Taoist master Quexin about it, and the latter commented that it was a great fortune and a good thing.

The hidden danger of headache could not be suppressed, Xiang Yuan could only trust the heartless Taoist priest and let his own soul go out of control, causing it to run in all directions like a wild horse.

I can’t say that the medicine cured the disease, but at least it doesn’t hurt as much.

Moreover, the soul did not split into three as expected, but was like three tentacles, spreading out in three directions.

It’s hard to say what other people’s souls look like, but Xiang Yuan’s soul looks like a car logo.

After the transformation of his soul, Xiang Yuan's spirit also followed him to the three places. As a Qi Refining Stage, how much energy could he have after acquiring magical powers? Feeling sleepy and drowsy, he used the method of 'Zhu Yin Zhu Shen' to strengthen his soul.

During this practice, I really felt like I was divided into three parts. All three tentacles were practicing, and I also gained the ability to switch between them freely.

"It's not split, it's more like multitasking. Is this a disease, or is it..."

My gold finger has arrived?

Xiang Yuan exclaimed that it was miraculous, silently prayed to himself "Uncle Master, help me", activated the search engine, and confirmed once again that he was a scorpion's shit - very poisonous.

Of course, it may not be a special case. The old demon Lingguang's memory is incomplete and he just happened to lose this part of his memory.

But no matter what, this is Xiang Yuan's only solution to his headache.

He tried to switch his own soul. Every time the three tentacles changed their priority, he would change accordingly. He tried it several times, summed up his experience, and named them Calm, Cold-blooded, and Funny respectively.

He is calm after traveling through time, low-key and cautious, as ordinary as a passerby; cold-blooded and overbearing, with a heart as cold as iron, and not moved by external things; funny...

There is nothing much to say about this. At first glance, he looks very much like the heartless Taoist priest in the memory of Lingguang Lao Mo. Upon closer inspection, he and Xiao He, who is depicted in many murals, have similar interests and have a lot in common.

Although all three are true to their hearts, the funny and bizarre styles are too eye-catching and are far from being as cold-blooded and heroic as they seem.

Being handsome is a lifelong thing!

The more Xiang Yuan looked at it, the more disgusted he felt. He thought that the day when his magical power was perfected would be the day when that funny thing would run away from home.

Behead him, he must be beheaded.

It’s not possible now. He doesn’t have that ability. Zhu Yin is forging a god, and his soul is growing stronger day by day. The car logo is becoming more solid, and the car door has been welded shut. He can’t get out of the car.

……

Bang bang bang!
"Xiang Yuan, are you recovered?" Old Liu pushed open the door and walked in, his tone very unhappy.

Firstly, Xiang Yuan was on paid leave under the pretext of poisoning, so he was busy all by himself without even a helper. Secondly, he lost the bet, so Xiang Yuan didn't have to pay him back for the meal. Why did it rain out of nowhere?
Old Liu couldn't understand it. For a thrifty man like him, losing a meal was more painful than killing him. He had been thinking about it for days.

"It's almost healed."

Xiang Yuan jumped off the bed, lamenting that the yamen was crowded with people and he was often disturbed, so it was not a good place to practice.

There are ways. You can be like Lao Liu, who has a family and never spends the night in the government office. Or you can rent a quiet room in a martial arts school, which provides three meals a day and you don't even have to go out.

But these methods all have a prerequisite.

have money.

The poor are good at literature but the rich are good at martial arts. To practice martial arts, one needs a fortune to spend. Famous teachers, elixirs, secret books, environment, etc. are all indispensable, and these all require money.

Young men like Xiang Yuan, the better ones went to the Six Gates. Their resources were not as good as those of the big sects and families, but they were not lacking either. As long as they did not die prematurely, there was hope for you to build a foundation.

The worse ones are the local government offices. They seem to have good treatment, but in fact, there is nothing. For warriors, the allocated resources are very limited.

It makes sense. All the money was earned by the big mountain gates and aristocratic families, and the imperial court was also short of money. More resources were invested in dogs with good appearance, and those with average appearance could just be fed casually, as long as they were not starved to death.

"When you're well, come out with me. You've been here all day and I can't even see a ghost."

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Lao Liu's words, Xiang Yuan dared not disobey. He put on his sword and followed him out of the county government office to start his daily street patrol work.

On the way, Xiang Yuan asked about the case, and Old Liu told him everything he knew, including what he had learned from Liu Jingsheng.

The zombie man was caught and moved to a luxurious single room with six doors. He is currently undergoing memory recovery therapy. After several courses of treatment, he still refuses to confess.

The zombie man was captured by Liu Jingsheng, saving him the humiliation of taking the blame for the Six Gates. This was a great achievement, and according to the rewards, all the constables on duty that night would receive a silver reward.

This is a reward from the imperial court, and the government office also has another one.

For example, Xiang Yuan killed a member of the Five Poison Sect and was rewarded by the court, who also gave him elixirs to commend his bravery and loyalty. He rescued his colleagues from the poisonous miasma and saved the Fengxian government two funeral subsidies, so he should be rewarded in any case.

"Old Liu, how much money can you have?" Xiang Yuan's eyes lit up.

"Fifty taels, about that. This is a big case, so it's about this amount." Old Liu said happily.

Xiang Yuan lacked common sense and had no clear idea of ​​the current purchasing power. He asked, "Is fifty taels enough to buy a pill that can help me open my mind?"

"You can buy it, but you can only buy the middle-grade ones, which are available at Baiyun Villa."

"Middle quality... that's fine, it's better than low quality."

"No, there is no low-grade. The middle-grade you mentioned is the low-grade."

Old Liu gestured and said, "When you go to Baiyun Villa, they will tell you that this is the middle grade, this is the big grade, and this is the top grade."

I wear it, but it feels like I’m not wearing anything.

Xiang Yuan was silent for a moment, allowing Lao Liu to skip this unpleasant topic and continue talking about the case.

In a sense, Xiang Yuan, who inherited Lingguang's legacy, is not short of money, but his means are low and he cannot control it for the time being.

All buried in southern Xinjiang!
"Remember the scarred man we met at the Little Morality Temple? We arrested a lot of people this time, but he was not one of them. I felt that there was something wrong with him at the time, so I reported to Captain Liu that he was most likely from the Five Poison Sect. The Six Gates have already issued a warrant for his arrest."

"We have seized a large amount of stolen goods, including weapons from Wangjian Villa and elixirs from Baiyun Villa. The two families often do business in the underworld, and they take money to do things regardless of the identity of the visitor. The Six Gates can do nothing about the two shops..."

"Based on my many years of experience in handling cases, this case is just the tip of the iceberg. It just happened to be uncovered. There is a lot of chaos inside!"

"Old Liu, will the Six Gates continue to investigate?"

"It's hard to say. The Six Gates are not clean either. The two people who did the dirty work in the two villages didn't escape, but Scarface ran away. It's very likely that there will be no follow-up."

Old Liu shook his head repeatedly and concluded, "We caught Zombie Face and seized a large amount of stolen goods. We have reported this to the higher-ups and everyone is very satisfied. It would be bad to investigate further."
