New and dark light years

Chapter 145 Simplified Elixir Formulas

The Huang residence, backyard.

Huang Qing helped Madam Huang with household chores.

She placed the pieces of cloth into the box one by one.

Her eyes were slightly red.

Thinking that my parents, sister, and brother are all going to Tianjin, and I probably won't see them for another three to five years, I feel a little sad.

The eldest daughter-in-law was directing the servants outside when she came in after a while. After looking at Huang Qing's expression, she laughed and said, "Silly girl, you're already married. You should have been prepared. Why are you still crying now?"

"I'm just a little sad," Huang Qing said, unusually coquettishly.

The old lady walked over, hugged Huang Qing in her arms, and said, "Although you are not my biological daughter, I have always regarded you as my real daughter. I can't bear to part with you, silly child."

“I know,” Huang Qing nodded.

She knew very well that the eldest daughter-in-law was also very good to her.

Actually, the eldest daughter-in-law was initially jealous of Huang Qin's mother, a beautiful Hu woman with a curvaceous figure who knew how to charm.

She kept her man's gaze fixed on her.

But at the crucial moment, Hu Ji was able to shield her husband from the knife without hesitation; she had no jealousy or resentment left.

They were even extremely grateful.

This affection naturally extended to Hu Ji's daughter, Huang Qing.

She treated Huang Qing even better than her own daughter.

“Your husband is a Spirit Hunter. Although he’s not very skilled yet, he’s intelligent. Give him some more time, and he’ll definitely become a Spirit Hunter of Rank 4 or higher.” The eldest lady stroked Huang Qing’s hair and said, “Then he’ll be able to protect you and let you come and go freely. If you want to visit relatives, it won’t be a problem at all.”

Huang Qing finally laughed.

At this moment, Huang Ling walked in from outside. She looked at her elder sister's red eyes and her face also showed some sadness.

"Now you know how sad it is to part ways." Huang Ling muttered with red eyes, "I told you not to rush into marriage, but you wouldn't listen... What's wrong with waiting until we get to Tianjin to get married? Then our family can stay together, unlike now, when we have to be separated by such a great distance."

The old lady scolded, "Ling'er, don't talk nonsense. Most women marry men who go to other places, and you will probably do the same in the future."

Huang Ling pursed her lips and said nothing more.

Huang Qing walked over and took Huang Ling's hand: "Little sister, I will try to come and see you more often in the future."

Huang Ling nodded slightly: "I also hope that you, eldest sister, can live a happy life."

"She's so happy," the old lady teased from the side, then pinched Huang Qing's cheek: "Her skin is so supple... much better than before she was married."

Huang Qing blushed slightly.

"Can you tell from this that she's happy?" Huang Ling asked, somewhat puzzled.

"You'll understand later," the old lady said with a smile.

Huang Ling still looked puzzled.

But he didn’t ask any more questions.

Huang Qing said, "Mother, I brought some body-strengthening pills and youth-preserving pills. I left them in my old room. Please remember to take them."

"Really?" The old lady smiled happily: "You two are so thoughtful."

As she gets older, she needs these things more and more to protect herself.

Huang Ling snorted and said, "A beautiful woman cannot compete for spring, and a virtuous woman can stand proudly against frost. The most important things for us women are talent and character. Mother, relying on these external things is not the right path."

The old lady rolled her eyes at her: "You're only sixteen, of course you can say that. When I was sixteen, I was even more arrogant than you. When you get to my age, if you don't have a youth-preserving pill, you'll probably even dare to swallow arsenic in order to have a fairer complexion."

Huang Ling was annoyed: "Mother, how can you underestimate your daughter like that? I am not the kind of person who values ​​appearances so much."

"You were the one who teased me first."

Huang Ling was speechless.

Huang Qing covered her mouth and laughed.

Meanwhile, with his wife and concubines away, Li Lin began to cultivate frantically.

He first went through all his skills before starting to study the recipe for the Imperial Realm Powder.

He felt that he could optimize this thing.

The ingredients in this prescription are too numerous and varied, and not pure enough.

He bought the raw materials from the market and, after several experiments, successfully simplified the formula for the Imperial Realm Powder. The cost was reduced to about half of the original.

In this way, it would no longer be difficult for him to build a house entirely made of Imperial World Powder.

The larger the house built with Imperial Powder, the better the effect.

Because filtering impurities requires... a 'pipeline'.

Just like water pipes, under the same flow rate and pressure, a wider and larger water pipe can naturally carry more water.

The same applies to Yujie powder.

Moreover, this stuff cannot be called Imperial World Powder.

It should be called a 'Spirit Gathering Stone'.

Thinking of this, Li Lin decided to name this newly created pill formula "Spirit Gathering Stone".

Just as he was about to make a few pieces to see the effect, Zhang Afu came to report: "Master, a servant from the Ding family has informed us that Imperial Envoy Ding wants to see you."

whats the matter?
But since that's the case, let's go take a look.

Li Lin arrived at the gate of the Ding residence and then spotted Zhao Xiaohu pacing back and forth there.

"Little Tiger, what are you doing here?"

"I want to see Sister Ding, but she doesn't want to see me." Then Zhao Xiaohu looked at Li Lin: "Brother Lin, what are you doing here?"

"Inspector Ding asked me to discuss serious matters."

Zhao Xiaohu immediately tensed up: "Brother Lin, you can't take Sister Ding from me."

In Zhao Xiaohu's eyes, Li Lin was the person he admired most, without exception.

If Brother Lin were to intervene, he would have absolutely no chance.

Li Lin slapped the other person on the head helplessly and scolded, "What kind of person do you take me for... Don't worry, I won't do such a thing."

Hearing this, Zhao Xiaohu felt relieved and said, "Since you have something to talk about, I'll go back to the village first and come back to see him in a few days."

Li Lin watched Zhao Xiaohu leave before entering the Ding residence.

Ding Yingqiu sat in the main seat, where tea had already been prepared.

"Please sit down, County Magistrate Li."

"Thank you." Li Lin didn't stand on ceremony. After sitting down, he immediately drank the tea and asked, "Why haven't I seen Xiao Hu? He seems to have been outside for quite a while."

Ding Yingqiu's face flushed slightly: "I haven't decided yet. After all, you know he's not even fourteen yet."

"Soon."

"If I really marry him, and people find out he's not even fourteen, how will I face them? Won't our Ding family be ridiculed?"

Li Lin chuckled: "It's alright. I'm the county magistrate now, and the registrar is my brother-in-law. It's not difficult for us to change Xiao Hu's age on the household registration. Besides, with his appearance, who would believe he's only thirteen? You didn't believe it before either."

Ding Yingqiu seemed somewhat tempted, then blushed and gave Li Lin a reproachful look, saying, "Let's not talk about that. The reason I invited you here is to ask you about the commentary you gave to the Ding family on the Cultivation Classic. It seems... a bit difficult to practice. We can understand it, but we can't seem to master it."

"No way." Li Lin was puzzled. "That's exactly how I trained."

"So we'd like your help to figure this out."

Li Lin thought for a moment and said, "May I take your pulse?"

Ding Yingqiu immediately put her right hand over.

Li Lin pressed his fingers against the pulse on the other person's right wrist and transferred some spiritual energy to it.

He then withdrew his gaze: "Strange, why is the pulse of your Ding family so... narrow?"

Ding Yingqiu looked shocked as she stared at Li Lin and asked, "I feel that the energy you transferred to me is very unusual. What is it?"

As a Spirit Hunter, she naturally sensed the difference in 'qi' between herself and Li Lin.

Differences in quality.

The difference in experience.

“This is the Qi cultivated by the Nourishing Nature Sutra,” Li Lin said. “But your meridians are really a bit narrow. What’s the reason for that?”

Ding Yingqiu fell silent.
