Chapter 97 Am I that kind of person?
"I don't know what you usually eat, but you always have to eat meat!" Qin Ziling thought about it, went out to the cellar in the backyard, got a snow wolf leg, and threw it into the cage.
Liu Xiaoqiang now needs meat to nourish himself every day, so Qin Ziling specifically ordered Liu Xiaoqiang to dig a cellar in the backyard and put a lot of ice in it to store wild animals for Liu Xiaoqiang and his family to eat when he is not around. The unknown beast immediately stretched out its claws when it saw the snow wolf's legs, hooked it in front of its mouth, and then started to bite it. In a few bites, it ate it all up, leaving no bones or fur. Then, it seemed that it had not eaten enough, and looked up at Qin Ziling.
Qin Ziling couldn't help but gasp when he saw this.
This snow wolf leg was just taken out of the freezer and was still hard. Unexpectedly, under the sharp teeth of the strange beast, it became as soft as tofu.
"Exotic beasts are exotic beasts. Even tamed exotic beasts are not comparable to ordinary animals. Moreover, the appetite of this exotic beast is too terrifying. You can't afford to raise it without some family wealth!" Qin Ziling couldn't help but sigh as he watched the exotic beast stretch out its long tongue to lick the bloody flesh at the corner of its mouth with lingering emotion.
After feeding the strange beast, Qin Ziling studied and pondered the "Dragon Swimming Skill" for a while, and the sky gradually brightened.
Although it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Xiaoqiang still got up early to practice martial arts in the courtyard. With a height of just over two meters and muscles all over his body like tree roots, he was simply a human beast.
Yin Ranyue had also gotten up. When she saw Qin Ziling pushing the door open, she hurriedly brought a basin of hot water, towels and other toiletries.
"I've told you not to do these things in the future. I can do it myself." Qin Ziling said as he took the hot towel handed over by Yin Ranyue.
"I like it!" Yinranyue lowered her head and said softly.
These three simple words almost broke Qin Ziling's defense. It took him a while to calm down. After washing up, he handed the towel and other things to Yin Ranyue and said, "You go prepare breakfast. You don't have to prepare anything for Liu Xiaoqiang."
"Ah!" Yin Ranyue was unable to react for a moment.
"I prepared something else for him to eat." Qin Ziling explained.
"Oh! Okay, Master." The kind-hearted Yin Ranyue was obviously relieved. She thought Liu Xiaoqiang had done something wrong and her master wanted to punish him.
After Yin Ranyue left, Qin Ziling went back to the house and took out the iron pot of Eight Desolations Green Python Dried Meat Soup that he had cooked in the cave yesterday, and then called Liu Xiaoqiang over.
"You will eat this every morning from now on, a small bowl with each meal." Qin Ziling pointed to the iron pot and said.
The Eight Desolations Jade Python Dried Meat Soup is very potent. Although Liu Xiaoqiang looks very big, his blood and physique are still far inferior to Qin Ziling's. He cannot eat as much of the Eight Desolations Jade Python Dried Meat Soup as Qin Ziling.
"Sir, what is this? It's black and smells terrible!" Even though Liu Xiaoqiang has always had a good appetite and can eat anything, when he opened the lid of the iron pot, he saw a pot of black, foul-smelling Eight Desolate Green Python dried meat soup in the pot, which looked like silt dug out from a stinky ditch. He suddenly felt nauseous and asked with a bitter face.
" What do you care about? Just eat when I tell you to." Qin Ziling looked at Liu Xiaoqiang's bitter face and finally felt a little balanced.
Originally, the meat of the Eight Desolate Green Python should have been delicious, but the essence was sucked out by the three bronze corpses, so the taste of the remaining dried meat was naturally not good.
But the Eight Desolate Green Python is a third-grade exotic beast after all. Even if its essence has been sucked dry and only some dried meat and dregs are left, it is still a super tonic for martial artists at the Qi and Blood realm.
So these few days, Qin Ziling could only eat this stuff with his nose pinched. It was really painful!
After having a rough understanding of the medicinal properties of the Eight Desolate Green Python dried meat, Qin Ziling dared to give it to Liu Xiaoqiang for tonic use.
"Sir, are you really going to eat this?" Liu Xiaoqiang suppressed the acid reflux in his stomach and looked at Qin Ziling pitifully.
"It's New Year's Day, am I kidding you?" Qin Ziling said with a deliberately stern face.
"Okay!" Seeing this, Liu Xiaoqiang had no choice but to get a small bowl, scoop a small bowl, and then pour it directly into his mouth while pinching his nose.
After finishing his meal, Liu Xiaoqiang immediately ran to the well, picked up a bucket of well water, and drank it all in one gulp, not caring about the coldness.
"Haha!" Qin Ziling couldn't help but laugh out loud with glee upon seeing this.
"Huh!" Liu Xiaoqiang put down the bucket and took a long breath. Looking at Qin Ziling who was laughing loudly, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Master, what exactly was that nourishing thing just now? It's the first day of the new year, you can't be teasing me on purpose!"
As soon as Liu Xiaoqiang finished speaking, his face changed drastically, his skin began to turn red, his veins were throbbing, and his whole body even seemed to be swelling.
"Hurry up and practice your skills!" Qin Ziling's face changed slightly when he saw this, and he shouted in a deep voice.
He drank two large bowls of Eight Desolate Green Python Meat Soup in succession, and except for the surging blood and qi, there was no other exaggerated reaction. That's why he suggested that Liu Xiaoqiang eat a small bowl for breakfast every day.
Unexpectedly, he still underestimated the gap between himself and Liu Xiaoqiang.
Liu Xiaoqiang knew at this time that the food Qin Ziling gave him was extremely nutritious and precious, so he hurried back to the center of the courtyard and practiced martial arts frantically.
After a full hour, or two hours, Liu Xiaoqiang's crazy and surging blood finally calmed down. Indistinctly, Liu Xiaoqiang's burly figure seemed to have grown a little bigger, and his muscles looked even stronger, as if made of iron.
"Thank you, sir." Liu Xiaoqiang calmed down his anger, walked up to Qin Ziling, and said in a low voice, with gratitude in his eyes.
"Do you still think this thing is unpalatable?" Qin Ziling asked with a hint of sarcasm on his face.
"Hehe, no matter how bad it tastes a hundred times, I, Liu Xiaoqiang, won't even frown." Liu Xiaoqiang scratched his head and said, his eyes shining as he looked at the iron pot, as if it was a peerless beauty who had taken off all her clothes.
"You don't have to rush to break through the iron sheet. During this period of time, try to temper and polish your arms, and strive to polish your arms to the level of cowhide." Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
"The arms have also been polished to the level of cowhide?" Liu Xiaoqiang couldn't help but tremble when he heard this.
“It is indeed difficult and time-consuming to polish your arms to the level of cowhide, but you are born with supernatural power and extraordinary bones. Moreover, I estimate that I can provide you with twenty pots of this kind of thing in the future. As long as you are willing to endure the hardships, there is still hope.
You are just 19 years old this year, so you still have plenty of time. Let’s put it this way. Within one year, if you cannot polish your arms to the level of cowhide, you should devote yourself to training your palms and break through to the level of iron as soon as possible, so as not to delay the breakthrough of the strength realm later. "Qin Ziling said in a deep voice.
Qin Ziling had also tasted the sweetness and knew that polishing other parts of the body was very effective in improving the quality and quantity of qi and blood. In addition, he happened to get the third-grade dried meat of an exotic beast by chance this time. Liu Xiaoqiang was born with supernatural powers and extraordinary physique, so he did not hesitate to delay Liu Xiaoqiang's breakthrough time and let him try it.
"You can provide twenty more pots!" Liu Xiaoqiang's eyes widened when he heard that, and he almost jumped up.
After drinking that small bowl of black meat soup, in addition to the initial surge of blood and energy like a mountain torrent, Liu Xiaoqiang can still feel the blood and energy constantly surging out of his stomach and intestines and spreading throughout his body.
The nourishing effect of this pill is much stronger than that of the Buyuan Pill which weighs ten taels per pill and the Xuanhan Tieji Secret Pill which weighs fifteen taels per pill.
Liu Xiaoqiang conservatively estimated that if converted into silver, this small bowl of black meat soup would probably be worth forty or fifty taels.
An iron pot can hold about fifteen bowls, which is at least six or seven hundred taels.
And twenty pots would cost more than ten thousand taels.
How could Liu Xiaoqiang not be shocked!
But Liu Xiaoqiang had no idea that what he was eating was the meat of a third-grade exotic beast, and moreover, the most top-notch one among the third-grade exotic beasts. Even the descendants of the five major families in the inner city were not qualified to have a bite of it. It was simply not something that could be measured by money.
"That's right!" Qin Ziling nodded and said in a deep voice: "The benefits of breaking through the membrane of the arms are beyond your imagination. For the sake of cowhide-level arms, it is completely worth delaying for a year."
"But this black meat soup..." Liu Xiaoqiang said in a hoarse voice.
When Liu Xiaoqiang thought of the more than ten thousand taels, he felt as if all the blood in his body was rushing to his head.
"I said, you don't have to worry about these. What you need to do now is to practice hard and protect this home." Qin Ziling interrupted.
"Yes! I will never let you down!" Liu Xiaoqiang said with a determined look in his eyes.
Qin Ziling smiled and motioned Liu Xiaoqiang to put away the iron pot. Then he waved to Yin Ranyue, who was cleaning the yard not far away and secretly looking at him, and said, " Ranyue, follow me to the study."
"Yes, young master!" Yin Ranyue quickly put down the broom, wiped her hands, then trotted to Qin Ziling and followed him into the study.
"Starting today, I will teach you the skills!" Qin Ziling said after motioning Yin Ranyue to sit down.
"Ah!" Yin Ranyue was surprised when she heard this and blurted out, "Shouldn't we teach martial arts in the yard?"
After saying this, Yin Ranyue seemed to be thinking about something, and immediately lowered her head, her little heart beating extremely happily. Her little hands nervously grasped the corner of her clothes, not daring to look Qin Ziling in the eye.
Qin Ziling looked at Yin Ranyue who was lowering her head, looking nervous and shy, and was speechless for a while.
Am I that kind of person?
"The skills I'm going to teach you today are different from Liu Xiaoqiang's. To be precise, it's not called martial arts but a method of refining qi." Qin Ziling said the last two words and deliberately lowered his voice.
"Qi-refining Dao..." Yin Ranyue suddenly raised his head, widened his eyes, and covered his mouth with his hands.
"Yes, this is something I got by accident. I've tried it, and it should be relatively easy to get started in the early stages. Whether you can achieve anything in the later stages depends on whether you have talent in this area. But no matter what, even if you're just getting started, this technique can also have the effect of strengthening your body." Qin Ziling said.
Although Qin Ziling said it lightly, Yin Ranyue was a smart girl, so how could she not understand the preciousness of the Qi Refining Dao? That was a legendary immortal technique, not to mention a maid like her who didn't know where her parents were, even if she was a son of a wealthy family, she would not be qualified to be taught if she didn't have the opportunity.
Now his own young master actually wanted to teach him the Taoist method of Qigong. Yin Ranyue was so moved that he almost couldn't help crying.
Seeing that Yin Ranyue was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes, Qin Ziling hurriedly took out the "Bi Mu Chang Qing Gong" and placed it on the desk.
