Start with a red name

Chapter 4 Tiger Bone Deer Ginseng Wine

Because Chen Rongshan had the same "red name" as Wu Youren, Geng Xuan was filled with thoughts.

Before he could reply, Chen Rongshan had already rushed forward. His tall and broad stature stood in front of Geng Xuan like a moving wall.

"Ah Xuan, why don't you even bring an umbrella? Come on, let's go inside and talk."

As he spoke, he reached out to pull him, but just as he touched Geng Xuan's shoulder, Chen Rongshan exclaimed again: "What's wrong? Why are you so weak?"

Just as Geng Xuan was about to reply, he felt his shoulders tighten and his feet left the ground. Chen Rongshan carried him into the house quickly.

……

Chen's living room.

Chen Rongshan had put the rain gear aside. Under Chen Rongshan's unyielding gaze, Geng Xuan took off his wet clothes and put on a set of Chen Jia Dalang's clothes.

Geng Xuan also explained the reason for his presumptuous visit so late at night. The gist was that he had an unexpected breakthrough in his training tonight, but because of his lack of experience and preparation, he ended up with a weak body.

While listening to Geng Xuan describing his physical condition, Chen Rongshan pinched and pressed various parts of his body, and his frown gradually relaxed.

"Uncle Chen, am I okay?" Geng Xuan saw Chen Rongshan stop and asked carefully.

Chen Rongshan nodded and said, "It's not a big problem. It will be cured soon. Fortunately, you came in time... Wait for me."

After giving another instruction, Chen Rongshan walked towards the inner room.

Geng Xuan was sitting alone in the living room, waiting quietly, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, "Uncle Chen..."

As he spoke, he turned his head and saw a woman coming towards him with a steaming ceramic bowl in both hands.

The woman was much younger than Chen Rongshan, only in her early thirties. She wore a plain white dress, with her long hair draped over her shoulders. She wore no makeup, but her charm could not be concealed.

Geng Xuan only took a glance and quickly looked away. He subconsciously straightened his body and greeted her respectfully, "Aunt."

At this moment, the memories of this woman from his previous life were surging in his mind.

His previous life had little contact with Uncle Chen's second wife, and he didn't dare to look at her directly when he occasionally met her. However, in his heart, he had secret feelings for this aunt that were difficult for a young man to express.

At this moment, Geng Xuan was just like his predecessor, sitting upright and looking straight ahead, which made things less stressful.

The woman placed the bowl next to Geng Xuan and said softly, "Xuan, drink a bowl of ginger water to get rid of the cold and dampness in your body."

"Thank you, aunt."

The woman nodded, turned and left without saying anything else.

When she was about to enter the inner room, Geng Xuan moved his eyes and looked at her again.

He clearly saw that there was also a ball of red mist hanging above this aunt's head, but it was much lighter and smaller than those of Wu Youren and Chen Rongshan.

Geng Xuan was about to look away when he felt something strange. He lowered his eyes and saw a small head poking out from the inner room, looking around to see what was going on in the living room.

When Geng Xuan's eyes met, the little girl blinked her big black and white eyes, made a face at him, and then shrank back.

Geng Xuan had a smile on his face, but he was thinking about what he had just seen.

Unlike the woman who had a faint red aura on her head, the little girl did not have any red aura on her head.

At first glance it looks clean and empty, but upon closer inspection one can see that it is different from the surroundings, as if a ball of transparent jelly is hanging above one's head.

Geng Xuan thought again of the various information he had obtained after refining the "residual energy", and an idea popped up in his mind.

"Could this red aura I saw, whether it was thick or thin or present or not, be the manifestation of the killing sins committed by that person?"

Geng Xuan thought again, this killing sin could not possibly be directed at all lives. Otherwise, every living person would be guilty of killing, without any exception.

More likely, it's only targeted at humans.

"The density of the red gas above a person's head is equivalent to the number of lives he has taken?"

“This really has become a famous name.”

Geng Xuan picked up the bowl and thought to himself, "If I kill someone with a red name, I can get good luck?"

He looked down at the ginger water in his hand, thinking that his seemingly harmless aunt might have a life on her hands, and that she could also be a resource to bring him good luck. Geng Xuan suddenly felt a terrifying sense that the ginger water in the bowl had turned into a bottomless abyss.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps were heard. Geng Xuan quickly drank the ginger water in the bowl and then looked up.

But Chen Rongshan came out holding a pottery jar in one hand. The two pottery jars were similar in shape, both with narrow mouths and big bellies, but one was big and the other was small. The big one had a capacity of fifty or sixty kilograms, while the small one only had a capacity of about ten kilograms.

Chen Rongshan placed the two pottery jars on the table, opened the lid of the larger pottery jar, and gently fanned the mouth of the jar with his palm. He smiled and said, "Smell it."

A strong aroma of wine wafts into the air.

"It smells good."

Chen Rongshan picked up the pottery jar and poured a stream of amber wine into the empty bowl next to Geng Xuan that had just finished drinking the ginger water.

When there was about two ounces of wine in the bowl, Chen Rongshan stopped and said to Geng Xuan, "Drink this wine."

"This is..." Geng Xuan said softly, looking at the amber wine in the bowl and the strong aroma.

"This is tiger bone, deer ginseng wine. It's made of top-quality ingredients. If you go out and buy it, you may not be able to buy it for one tael of silver!"

Geng Xuan nodded, picked up the ceramic bowl, and drank all the wine in the bowl, not leaving a drop.

I thought drinking like this would put a lot of pressure on my throat, but I didn't expect it to be surprisingly smooth.

After the wine entered his stomach, Geng Xuan felt as if a warm current was spreading from his abdomen to his whole body.

The hunger and weakness that had been plaguing him also disappeared, "extinguished" by the two taels of wine.

Geng Xuan looked at Chen Rongshan and said with surprise, "That's it!"

Chen Rongshan poured the wine into the small jar and said:

"This is an illusion. How can the body's deficit be replenished so quickly?

You should drink two liang of this medicine every morning and evening, for at least five days and at most ten days, and your body's deficiency will be completely replenished."

“You unexpectedly broke through this time, so it’s not a loss, but don’t do this in the future.

I still say that you should practice in moderation, too much is as bad as too little!"

"Until your body recovers, you should temporarily stop practicing Iron Skin Kung Fu. However, with this wine, you can still practice Iron Sand Palm, but you must also make sure to rest.

After your body recovers, drink one or two cups every other day to maintain your condition. "

Chen Rongshan kept giving instructions like an old lady, sealed the small jar filled with wine, and handed it to Geng Xuan, "Here."

Geng Xuan quickly declined: "Uncle Chen, this is too much. This wine is so precious. You can just give me one or two pounds."

"There's no need to say so much. Just take it if you're told to."

"Then... I..."

"What nonsense."

Chen Rongshan stuffed the wine can directly into Geng Xuan's arms, "Hold it carefully, the road is slippery on rainy nights, don't fall."

Geng Xuan didn't care about anything else and quickly and carefully held the wine jar in his arms.

Chen Rongshan put the bamboo hat on Geng Xuan's head, tied the raincoat on his shoulders, and patted him on the shoulder. "I won't keep you here any longer. Take care of yourself. Come and get the wine when you finish it."

"Ah?!" Geng Xuan turned his head and looked at him in surprise.

Is Uncle Chen treating me too well?
Chen Rongshan said: "This wine originally belonged to you."

"Ah?" Geng Xuan looked confused.

Chen Rongshan patted him on the shoulder again, shook his head and sighed, saying:

"You may not know this yet, but the most important tiger bone in this jar of tiger bone and deer ginseng wine was provided by your father.

We agreed at that time that after the wine was ready, our two families would each share half.

But I didn't expect that he would not live to see the day when the wine becomes wine!"

Geng Xuan remained silent.

"This wine is most effective for practitioners who are tempering their bodies and refining their skin. Your father almost lost his life in Chiwu Mountain in order to obtain the right tiger bones... I think you should understand why he did that."

In Geng Xuan's mind, a memory silently emerged of several months ago when his predecessor's father was away for several days and came back with injuries all over his body, but he didn't care at all and instead laughed at his predecessor.

"Okay, go back... If you have any difficulties in your cultivation in the future, you can always come to me."

"Thank you, Uncle Chen."

Geng Xuan wore a straw hat and a raincoat, braved the strong wind and rain, and returned carefully to his home with tiger bone, deer ginseng wine in his hands.

After carefully putting the wine away, Geng Xuan began to look around the mess in the room.

Only when he entered the room again did Geng Xuan realize how strong the smell of blood was in the room.

Geng Xuan also realized that he had to clean up the house as much as possible before dawn.

His eyes fell on the corpse of Wu Youren again, and he realized that there was still a huge trouble facing him.

Everything else is easy, just take some time to deal with.

But what should we do with this corpse?
Anyone with experience knows that it is easy to kill someone but difficult to destroy the body.

Looking at the corpse, Geng Xuan's thoughts raced.

The memories of his previous life also came out to join in the fun, and he knew that there was a strange thing called corpse powder. Just pour a little powder on a corpse, and the corpse will quickly turn into a pool of blood, with no bones, hair, or nails left.

On this rainy night, it is simply a magical weapon to destroy corpses and cover up traces.

"Unfortunately, I don't."

Geng Xuan used his imagination to try to come up with the most effective solution under the existing conditions.

Dismembered and hidden in a water tank?

It’s summer and things will stink soon.

Pickled with salt?
Not that much salt.

Chop it into minced meat and pour it into the ditch?

Not only is the workload huge, but it will also leave many traces behind.

Feed the dog?

But there is no dog at home.

Well, there was one originally, but unfortunately, after he followed his predecessor's father into Chiwu Mountain for the last time, he never came back. It is suspected that he was buried in Chiwu Mountain together with his predecessor's father.

Even if the dog was still there, it wouldn't have such a big appetite.

After thinking it over, Geng Xuan helplessly discovered that, at the moment, there seemed to be only one most effective method -

埋。

Although he felt a little regretful that he had not come up with a better method, Geng Xuan decided to take action immediately.

Before digging the pit, Geng Xuan decided to wrap the body tightly to prevent too much blood from seeping into the soil and creating new flaws.

Geng Xuan found two sheets and spread them on the ground, then leaned over and picked up the body.

"Snapped--"

A soft sound.

Geng Xuan was startled and looked down. In the dim night, he could vaguely see a wooden box lying quietly in the pit.

The memories of his previous life before his death resurfaced, and Wu Youren's words at that time seemed to ring in Geng Xuan's ears:

"Relax, don't be nervous. As long as you cooperate and honestly take out the "Running Dog Chapter", I will ensure that you will be fine!"

"Is there really a treasure in this house?" Geng Xuan murmured in a low voice, seeming a little unbelievable.

　The protagonist killed Wu Youren, but because he was worried that the other party had mastered the skin refining, he did not dare to attack other places easily. Except for the last blow to his neck, all the attacks were made from his natural weak point, the "chrysanthemum". After dozens of cuts, everyone should understand the state of the corpse. However, the website may think that this description is too vulgar, and all related texts were forcibly deleted, so the specific attack parts were hardly mentioned. I will briefly talk about it here.
