Apply in the afternoon.
Jiang Ping returned to the mansion from the martial arts school. After hearing the maid's report, her face changed again and again, and she immediately went to the back garden of No. 10 Courtyard.
"Xiaohuan, how is the master?"
"lady!"
Jiang Huan lowered his sword stance and said with a smile: "I'm fine, Master! It's just that I lost my strength while practicing. It's not a serious problem. However, Master said that I should concentrate on retreating for a few days to recover. If there is nothing important, don't disturb me easily..."
After hearing the details, Jiang Ping was still suspicious: "Are you sure? Why do you need to retreat if you have nothing to do?"
"It's true. The Fifth Madam and I have confirmed it repeatedly. She's not injured, she's just weak."
As she said that, she pointed to the stones piled up in the yard, "Madam, look at these stones. The master must be practicing some powerful magic. He used too much force all of a sudden. The slave only heard a sound, and the rockery was completely destroyed." It exploded."
"That's good." Jiang Ping nodded and looked at Jiang Huan, "How's your practice going?"
Jiang Huan's brows were a little proud, and he put a sword flower on his arm, "It's all because of Madam's good teaching! It is estimated that he will be able to break through to the sixth level of body training in a month or two!"
It used to take almost three years of training to reach the second level of physical training, but now it has reached the peak of the fifth level of physical training in more than five months. The progress is not small.
In addition to qualifications and hard work, the resources invested are also key. The body is tempered with the blood of monsters and beasts every day, and various precious medicinal materials and elixirs are used to temper the fascia, flesh and blood.
Not only her, but all the martial arts students in Zhongfu have made rapid progress, except for Tang Xiaoshu who is out on business and has been stuck in the bottleneck of the ninth level of the day after tomorrow.
Yan San Dao is the seventh level of the day after tomorrow.
Zhong Xiaozhong was born a day after tomorrow.
Jiang Ping reached the peak of the eighth level of body training.
Xia He was pregnant, and was completely pulled away by Zhong Xiaozhong, who was training at the seventh level.
The peak of the fifth level of Chunyu body training.
The two new concubines who entered the house originally had the acquired second level.
Zhongfu's comprehensive combat power has been greatly improved.
"It's your own hard work."
Jiang Ping smiled and reminded: "You can't just improve your realm. You also have to work hard on martial arts, body skills, and swordsmanship."
"Yes, I remember!"
At this time, a burly young man ran up from a distance, bowed and said: "Mrs. Qi, the seventh lady's flying pigeon sent a message!"
This person is Zhong Xiaozhong's boy from the same village, his name is Liang Zhu, and he has a simple and honest face.
Jiang Huan stepped forward quickly, took the note and handed it to Jiang Ping, glanced at it, and asked, "But the third lady and the seventh lady are coming back?"
Jiang Ping opened the note and read the content, her face changed slightly, she glanced towards the training room, then turned to go to the study.
"Ma'am, what happened?"
…
…
Courtyard No. 6, Wutong Lane, Li Mansion.
There is no monk in the family, there is no need to use the training room, and there is no need to pay rent for the spiritual stone, so the Li family moved here three months ago.
If it weren't for the fact that House No. 7 and No. 8 also had a training room, Li Yang would have wished to live next door to the Zhong Mansion.
At this moment, the important people in the Li family gathered together, and all of them looked unhappy.
One of the middle-aged men sat on a chair with a pale face and a gloomy face.
This person is the number one master of the Li Mansion Martial Arts School, Nie Baokun, who is at the peak of the fifth level of Xiantian. An hour ago, the Li Mansion Martial Arts School was kicked out and injured, and this was not the first time.
There will definitely be more to come.
This situation is not limited to Li Mansion.
Due to the destruction of the Qingyang Martial Arts League, Qingyang warriors are now all self-employed, and new forces and interests will inevitably form. Therefore, the competition among martial arts schools is extremely fierce, and legal and legal gym-kick challenges are carried out almost every day.
It's just that the Li Mansion is weaker, and it occupies such a good position. It's natural that such a large martial arts venue will be targeted and picked on.
Nie Baokun cupped his fists and said, "My boss, please decide this matter as soon as possible. If this continues, the disciples will have no intention of training, and it will be difficult for the martial arts gym to continue to open."
At present, several martial arts disciples have left the hall.
Li Shangwu frowned and looked at Li Yang in silence for a moment, "Mother, why don't you ask Uncle Zhong to show up?"
It is absolutely impossible for the martial arts gym to close, this is the foundation of Qingyang.
Not to mention the business in the city, the fertile fields and slaves in the countryside are prone to problems without the protection and maintenance of their own force.
It is only a matter of time before the martial arts gym is closed and the Li Mansion will be defeated. At the very least, they move out of the South District, which is the most secure place, and only do small business to survive, or at the most serious state, they leave Qingyang City completely and find another place.
The Zhongfu Martial Arts School is located in the most chaotic West District of Qingyang. It has not yet been kicked out of the gym. Naturally, it is because of its reputation as a 'fierce ape' and the incident in the Xue Mansion is still fresh in our minds.
Be quiet for a while.
Li Shangwen's biological mother, Li Qiu, said: "They are sure that our Li Mansion will no longer be what it used to be. Sister, what Wu'er said makes sense. Even if we don't invite uncle to come forward, at least let him come and sit in the manor.
After the master went out, my uncle only came twice in total. The other immortal masters, except for Wu'er's wedding, never came once. These things will naturally come to mind in the eyes of caring people. The first few visits were just for testing, so this time Only then did he dare to hit Master Nie hard. "
Li Mansion's daughter Li Jingqiu said: "Uncle is in seclusion and may not come out in a short time."
Li Yang was stunned for a moment, "When did it happen? I saw him the day before yesterday."
Li Jingqiu moved his lips but said nothing.
Li Shangwu clasped his fists towards Nie Baokun and said, "Master Nie, please go back first. I will give you an answer tomorrow."
After Nie Baokun led several warriors to leave, Li Jingqiu said: "Uncle seems to have been injured while practicing."
Everyone looked at each other, Li Yang's expression changed slightly, and he quickly asked: "Is it serious?"
Li Jingqiu shook his head, "At that time, Aunt Qiuxiang and I were talking in Courtyard No. 10. Suddenly I heard a loud noise coming from the backyard. I didn't dare to follow and go closer to see, but I heard Aunt Qiuxiang shouting, as if she was crying, maybe It must be a bit serious, otherwise I wouldn’t suddenly have to go into seclusion.”
They exchanged glances again, flickering.
Li Yang frowned and pondered for a moment, then said: "Wu'er, it's not time to trouble your uncle now, sell out the martial arts gyms in the East District as soon as possible, drive to the North District, and find a smaller yard.
In addition, you can go to Zhong Mansion in person tomorrow and bring gifts. You don't need to ask whether your uncle is injured. Just do it as usual. "
Li Shangwu: "Okay."
"Wu'er, Qiu'er, you go down first."
Wait for the two juniors to leave.
Li Yang glanced at the group of concubines and sisters, and finally looked at the eighth and ninth sisters, "Eighth sister, ninth sister, I have wronged you by marrying into the Li Mansion."
Bafang: "Sister, what did you say? It is our blessing to enter the Li Mansion."
Jiufang: "When you enter the Li Mansion, you become a member of the Li Mansion, and everything will be subject to the arrangements of the eldest sister."
Li Yang nodded, changed her words, and suddenly said: "Uncle came to Qingyang less than five years ago and married nine wives. I had a private chat with sister Ping'er, and it seemed that my uncle seemed to prefer women and his demand was extremely strong."
A group of sisters: "..."
Regardless of their origins and identities, the women who can enter the Li Mansion are naturally the same as those who join the Zhong Mansion. All of them have been specially trained.
As soon as these words came out, I understood the meaning after a little thought.
Li Yang continued: "No matter how good the relationship between my uncle and the master is, they are still outsiders. If you want to seek protection from others, you can only be one of your own. We all hope that the master can come back, but right now..."
Nowadays, news comes from Mangdang Mountain from time to time. Most of the eighteen teams have returned. Those who can come back have returned. For those who have not returned, the results are self-evident.
"Shangwu is young and it is difficult to improve the martial arts realm for a while. We still have some foundation in Qingyang. If we go elsewhere, our family may be in danger."
After a moment of silence, the eight and nine rooms looked at each other and said in unison: "It's all up to the eldest sister."
Sanfang said: "Qiu'er, of her generation..."
Li Yangshi said: "The master said before that when Qiu'er grows up, if his uncle likes her, he will marry her. As for seniority, the monk's family doesn't care about this. It's up to everyone."
After a pause, Li Yang glanced at everyone's faces, "Not just the eighth and ninth sisters, uncle can fall in love with anyone, including me!"
A group of beautiful women couldn't help but turn red and hot, especially when Zhong Yan's appearance came to mind, and their thoughts were flying wildly.
Li Henian has been gone for such a long time, but the pure white lambs in the eight and nine rooms that have never eaten grass are still okay. The others are all in drought-stricken places, so they naturally have a lot to look forward to.
Li Yang said sternly: "Everything is for the Li family and ourselves!"
"Don't feel ashamed. The master is gone and we are all free. The key is that uncle ignores us."
"We don't know what my uncle's true likes and temperaments are. He and the master are close friends. Will he mind this relationship and whether he will mind me being a woman? Therefore, this matter needs to be planned and prepared in advance."
…
…
Seven days go by in a blink of an eye.
In the training room of No. 10 Courtyard of Zhong Mansion, Zhong Chang stood up, exhaled a breath of turbid air, and had a refreshing smile on his face.
An unexpected surprise.
The vitality in his body was drained all at once.
Now that he has fully recovered, the lethality of the energy converted into energy has also been slightly enhanced.
The cultivation base has made great progress, and the intuitive reflection of the system is that it has increased by more than 400 experience points at once!
It's more intense than taking pills and practicing dual cultivation.
After a brief thought, Zhong Yan felt that this was similar to the repeated tempering of vitality by those well-qualified monks, and he might be able to improve through this method in the future.
However, it is not difficult to predict that the effect will gradually weaken with more times, until it is completely ineffective.
After all, whether it is the capacity of the meridians, the strength, or the degree of solidification of vitality, there is a limit at every stage.
"No matter what, we are one step closer to the fifth level of Qi refining!"
Zhong Yan glanced at the system panel. He had been refining pills like crazy in the past few months. At the current speed, he would put aside the practice of secret arts and expected to break through to the fifth level of Qi refining by the end of the year.
Get out of the training room.
Jiang Huan, who was a little surprised, came up to him and said, "Master, you are out of seclusion!"
Zhong Yan, who was in a good mood, nodded, glanced at her, and praised with a smile: "This dress suits you very well."
"..." Jiang Huan was startled, feeling happy in his heart. He bowed his head shyly and said to himself: Master finally noticed me.
You should have noticed it already.
This maid has been practicing martial arts in the backyard of No. 10 all day long. Zhong Yan is not blind.
He also guessed some of the reasons, and he thought it was his wife's handwriting.
"By the way, sir, something happened in the house!"
"What's the matter?"
"On the day of your seclusion, the Seventh Madam sent a message back, saying that the Third Madam disappeared while accepting disciples in Changli Town, and she has not been found yet!"
