[Name: Qin Gengyun]
【Lifespan: 35/40】
[Cultivation: second level of Qi training, 98/100]
[Skill: Alchemist Apprentice, 93/100]
[Spiritual roots: low-grade fire-type spiritual roots (12/100), low-grade ice-type spiritual roots (17/100)]
The next day, Qin Gengyun opened his eyes, touched his sore abdomen, and called up his attribute panel.
The 6 practice points gained last night were all added to the cultivation level. Now there are only two points left to reach the third level of Qi training.
For more than two years after the time travel, Qin Gengyun continued to practice, but due to the erysipelas in his body, it was difficult to improve his cultivation. Unexpectedly, after a night of flowers and candles in the bridal chamber, his long-stagnant cultivation finally improved again.
After entering the third level of Qi training, his spiritual consciousness is enough to move objects through the furnace, and he can try to refine the lowest level of elixirs.
Although one night had passed, Qin Gengyun was still a little excited.
Um?
Qin Gengyun suddenly discovered that the progress of his fire and ice spiritual roots seemed to be somewhat different from last night.
When I checked for the first time last night, the low-grade fire-type spiritual roots were only 11 points, and the low-grade ice-type spiritual roots were 15 points.
Now, the fire spiritual root has increased by 1 point, and the ice spiritual root has increased by 2 points.
But Goldfinger didn't give any hint.
Is this a benefit other than Gold Finger?
Qin Gengyun thought of last night, Qiu Zhihe claimed to be born with an ice spirit body and acquired fire poison, resulting in a special physique.
Because of this, all his ice and fire spiritual roots have been improved?
So if you marry more wives and concubines with special physiques, will your cultivation and spiritual roots improve faster?
After all, he only has five years to live, and he must improve his cultivation as soon as possible to have a chance of survival.
Going to Marriage Pavilion again today?
However, Qin Gengyun felt a little hesitant.
He turned his head and looked at Qiu Zhihe, who was lying next to him. The woman was still lying on her side with her back to him. Qin Gengyun sighed slightly.
He originally married for the purpose of dual cultivation, and never thought of harmonizing with his wife, Qin Se, but Qiu Zhihe married him when he was in the most difficult time without even asking for a cent of the bride price.
He had to marry a concubine just after getting married. This was really a pity for her.
But he only has five years left. If he doesn't improve his cultivation as soon as possible, how can he survive?
Hesitating in his heart, Qin Gengyun slowly got up, got dressed and got out of bed.
He went to the kitchen to wash up briefly, walked gently to the bed, and looked down at Qiu Zhihe, who was still sleeping soundly.
The woman huddled under the quilt, revealing only a pretty little round face, with skin that could be broken by blows, and slightly messy hair hanging down from the corners of her lips, showing a bit of innocence and innocence.
She is completely different from the cold woman who crushed him last night.
Qin Gengyun walked to the door quietly, opened the door and went out, then closed it gently.
I went to the breakfast stall in the alley and bought a basket of steamed buns. When I got home, I saw Qiu Zhihe was still sleeping, so I didn't disturb her, put the steamed buns on the table, and then went out again.
Click.
With a soft sound, the door closed, and silence returned to the cramped room.
The woman on the bed opened her eyes, her eyes as cold as frost, instantly breaking the delicate and cute look just now.
She slowly sat up and lifted the thin quilt. On the white sheets under her body, there was a dazzling red flower.
Qiu Zhihe was silent for a moment, then with a wave of her hand, a storage bag appeared, and she took out a black robe with a hood from it.
The next moment, a petite figure in black robe was standing by the door.
Qin Gengyun went out and walked down the long and narrow alley.
Zhaiyu Alley is a concentrated low-rent housing area in Yunling Town. It is exclusively for low-level monks. It is three miles long at both ends, with a narrow lane in the middle and closely built tile houses on both sides.
The house Qin Gengyun rents is one of the cheapest, costing only eighty baht a month.
In this world of cultivating immortals, monks use spiritual baht and spiritual stones as the currency of transactions.
Ling baht has the smallest value. One hundred Ling baht can be exchanged for one spiritual stone.
Qin Gengyun did some research at the beginning of his time travel. If compared with the world in his previous life, one spirit baht is almost equivalent to ten yuan.
Calculated, the monthly rent for the house he rented in his previous life was 800 yuan.
It is indeed extremely cheap.
It used to be okay to live alone, but now that I'm married to a wife, and I have to make alchemy later, and I need to put an alchemy furnace in the house, it's a bit cramped.
We still need to improve our cultivation as soon as possible, refine elixirs and sell them to earn more spiritual stones, so that we can live better.
After walking a few steps, the door next door opened and a man and woman came out.
The man has an ordinary appearance and the woman has a gentle temperament, but both of them, like Qin Gengyun, wear cheap coarse cloth robes.
This is the Taoist couple who lives next door to Qin Gengyun. The man is Zhang Chengdao and the woman is Chen Fang.
Although named "Chengdao", Zhang Chengdao, like Qin Gengyun, was still stuck at the second level of Qi training when he was over thirty years old, so he married a woman from a different family and wanted to pursue dual cultivation.
It's just that he and Chen Fang have been married for more than a year, but their cultivation has not improved at all.
Obviously, their path to spiritual practice has been cut off.
The two of them also knew this, so they simply gave up their pursuit of truth, became a real couple, and began to enjoy life.
Every time Qin Gengyun met them, the two held hands, like a loving mortal couple.
Qin Gengyun borrowed the wedding dress from them last night.
At this time, he hurriedly handed over his hands: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Chen, thank you very much for last night. I haven't had time to wash the wedding dress yet. I will return it to you after it is washed."
Zhang Chengdao waved his hands repeatedly: "No, there's no rush."
Chen Fang held her husband's arm and smiled gently: "Fellow Daoist Qin, congratulations! You can bring your wife over to sit with you when you have time. I have learned a few new dishes."
Zhang Chengdao has a dull personality, while Chen Fang is gentle and generous. After losing his Taoist heart, Chen Fang became like a mortal and obsessed with cooking. The couple often invited Qin Gengyun over for dinner.
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen. I will definitely bring Qiu... my wife to visit me someday."
Qin Gengyun thanked them with his hands, said goodbye to the two of them, walked out of Zhaiyu Lane, and hurried to Caifeng Street.
Caifeng Street is the busiest street in Yunling Town. The morning market, night market, Danfu Tower, Lingbao Pavilion and Marriage Pavilion are all located on this street.
When he walked to the Marriage Pavilion, Qin Gengyun stopped, hesitated for a moment, thinking about his life span of less than five years, and finally walked in.
When Matchmaker Wang saw Qin Gengyun, she immediately stepped forward with a smile on her face:
"Fellow Daoist Qin, you just got married yesterday, why did you come to my Marriage Pavilion so early today?"
She came closer and whispered: "Is it possible that fellow Taoist Qin has realized the way of dual cultivation and wants to find a concubine?"
Qin Gengyun opened his mouth, but the word "yes" could not be said out after all. He cupped his hands and said:
"I'm here to thank fellow Daoist Wang. If you hadn't been eager to help me find a match, I wouldn't have met my wife."
Matchmaker Wang laughed and held her hands in hand: "You're welcome, fellow Taoist Qin. I see that your lady is beautiful, well-behaved, virtuous and submissive. From now on, we will be able to play the harp and the harp together, and we will go to the great road together!"
"Thank you, fellow Daoist Wang!"
After leaving the Marriage Pavilion, Qin Gengyun couldn't help but sigh.
Although it is not unusual for men in this world of immortality to have three wives and four concubines, Qin Gengyun still couldn't do the thing of getting married yesterday and marrying another concubine today.
However, I wonder if Daoist Qiu is willing to work hard with me every day to help me practice?
After leaving Marriage Pavilion, Qin Gengyun found a breakfast stall and ordered a piece of soy milk and fried dough sticks.
Monks are also human beings and need to eat whole grains. Of course, there are also foods containing spiritual energy such as spiritual rice, spiritual meat, spiritual wine, etc. that can help with cultivation. However, Qin Genggen is short of money and cannot afford these things for the time being.
Cut the fried dough sticks into several pieces, soak them in soy milk, pick them up and put them in your mouth.
So soft.
Suddenly remembering last night, Qin Gengyun's mouth twitched and he took a sip of soy milk.
Mmm, so sweet.
No matter what, there is finally some hope for this day.
In the distance, a petite figure wearing a black robe stared at Qin Gengyun coldly.
Looking at the thick fried dough sticks soaked in soy milk and looking at the Marriage Pavilion not far away, the coldness on the black shadow seemed to be getting heavier.
