It was extremely cold at the end of December.
In the hut, large bathtubs four and a half feet high are placed side by side, with a screen in the middle as a barrier. Outside the sill window is the cold wind, and inside the sill window is the steaming heat.
The nose is filled with a strong medicinal aroma, a bitter taste accumulated over many years.
The reddish-brown swaying body undulated under him, and every pore opened in a relaxed manner... Liang Qu put his arms on the edge of the bucket, and his tense muscles quickly relaxed.
This wooden barrel specially used for bathing is much more advanced than his rice vat. There is a convex board in the middle for sitting on, and the edge of the barrel is even made into a fine lattice to prevent slipping.
The slightly scalding hot water quickly dissipates the coldness in the entire room, making it as warm as spring.
Wounds that were swollen, bruised or even bloody from previous battles will initially feel irritating and painful when exposed to hot water. However, under the penetration of the medicinal solution, the color will quickly fade and become hot. The pain will be relieved and the effect will be obvious. The wounds on my head no longer hurt.
There is no separation between medicine and martial arts. The special healing medicine of the martial arts school is really exquisite. Although it is not as good as the lotus root in the water, it is just some ordinary medicinal materials. When combined, it can have such a curative effect.
Liang Qu leaned his neck against the edge of the barrel, feeling so comfortable that he just wanted to sleep and didn't want to get up at all.
"Ah Shui, how did you do it?"
Chen Jiechang's voice came from behind the screen. After a while, he finally calmed down and finally thought about the problem that killed Liang Qu.
After being reminded by Chen Jiechang, Li Libo also reacted: "Yes, yes, you can beat seven of them by yourself. That's so awesome. How did you do it?"
"I'm extremely talented. I won't panic even if I have a knife in front of me. I just need to see the right moment to hit him."
It's fun to show off for a while, but then you'll be cremated.
Liang Qu's face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat.
Behind the screen, Chen Jiechang suddenly realized: "That's it."
Li Lipbo sighed: "Senior Brother Hu only said that you have good bones, but he definitely didn't expect that you are talented. Ah Shui, no, Brother Shui, I don't ask you to take care of my brother. I just hope that if you become prosperous in the future, you can let me go to Liang." I am a gatekeeper in the house, as long as I can take care of three meals a day."
! ! !
No, do you believe it?
Liang Qu, who was about to weave a seamless excuse, was stunned when he thought about the storm organization's words in his mind.
It seemed that he was about to strike hard, but the enemy slipped sideways and hit him on the back of the head with a hammer. For an instant, his mind went blank.
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang seemed to think so.
If not a gift, what else could it be?
Liang Qu indeed has excellent bones, everyone has verified it with his own eyes. Hu Qi said that he has never touched the standard ape-armed, wasp-waisted and mantis legs like Liang Qu's in so many years of bone touching, so that must be the case.
Without the Internet novels of later generations and the bombardment of the information age, how could the two of them have so many concepts like "grandpa", "system", and "golden finger" in their minds?
Sure enough, the fellow countrymen are still honest, and simplicity is good.
Liang Qu felt relieved and lay back in the bucket.
Half an hour later.
The reddish-brown medicinal solution became increasingly diluted and turned light red. According to Hu Qi, the medicinal effect had been completely absorbed during this period.
But the three of them had no intention of leaving. Most people's homes would not prepare such special tubs for bathing. They were all large tubs, which were cheap and easy to use. How could they be so comfortable, especially when it was cold outside, and they didn't want to come out.
They were asked to add hot water twice more. After soaking for a total of an hour, the three of them got up. Their skin was wrinkled. They were not cold at all when they came out. After drying themselves, they lay down on the bed. The feeling...
"Look, there's actually cotton in the quilt!"
As soon as Li Libo lay down, he realized something was wrong. The bed quilt was too soft. When he reached out and touched it, he realized that it was actually a quilt.
It's not that cold in the south. Most ordinary families use reed flowers, accumulated catkins, or even some straw to fill it, and sew a quilt cover made of linen on the outside. How can you afford a quilt made of cotton? A whole cotton coat.
Liang Qu was also quite surprised. Compared with his own environment, it was comparable to a five-star luxury hotel!
As expected of the accommodation in August 2 and January, it is so luxurious!
"It's cool."
The three of them blew out the candles and got into bed. The strange thing was that they were very sleepy before taking a bath, but after lying on the bed, they were not sleepy at all and even became more energetic.
Especially when he thought about how Lu Tingcai and others had been beaten so hard by Liang Qu that they had teeth all over the floor, Li Libo burst into laughter.
Laughter seemed to be contagious, followed by Chen Jiechang, and finally Liang Qu, all three of them laughed.
No one said why they were laughing, but everyone knew what everyone was laughing at.
"It's so amazing. It's really amazing. Ah Shui, you will really be my direct disciple from now on. I have never seen anyone more powerful than you in my life."
"Yeah, it feels like I'm dreaming. Master Yang is a more powerful person than Master Zhao. He is one of the best in Pingyang Town. I heard that Master Yang always greets him when he sees him."
Liang Qu put his hands behind his head and stared at Daliang: "I didn't expect Master Yang to accept me as his disciple. I feel like I picked up a fishing net and found a treasure fish in the net."
"If you had gone to pay the autumn tax a few days earlier, how dare that dog official kick your grain? If he dared to kick your grain, you should go up and kick him!"
"Hahaha, then I don't dare."
"Why don't you dare to do this? He is the one who should be afraid. When you call him an official, you really think that you are an official, and you are not the bastard of the old men."
"Yes, yes, yes."
For a moment, the room felt like a night chat in a boys' dormitory. Everyone was in high spirits and everyone was looking forward to their future.
Liang Qu was accepted as his direct disciple, and his future was bright. Li Libo and Chen Jiechang were also promoted from the seven-two stall to the twenty-two stall, and their clearance rate increased significantly.
Everyone has a bright future!
After chatting for half an hour, the three of them felt sleepy.
"Sleepy......"
"Me too, stop talking and go to sleep."
"I slept......"
Early the next morning.
In the misty morning, the rooster crows.
Liang Qu opened his eyes and got up. He was not sleepy at all, and was even energetic.
There was no electricity or mobile phones, and everyone worked at sunrise and rested at sundown, so it was only after nine o'clock after taking a bath last night, and they went to bed at ten o'clock after talking.
Li Libo and Chen Jiechang, on the other hand, were not as physically fit as Liang Qu. In addition, they were seriously injured. The quilt was too comfortable in the cold weather. They heard the rooster crow and hummed twice and continued to dream.
Liang Qu didn't interrupt, he put on the clothes given by Hu Qi lightly, washed briefly and then went out, when he happened to see Xiang Changsong boxing in the courtyard.
"Junior Brother Liang got up early."
"Senior Brother Xiang, isn't it earlier?" Liang Qu was helpless, "I also want to sleep in, but my body is used to getting up early."
"I heard that fishermen go out to fish when they are ugly or even when they are young. Is this true?"
"Well, there are a lot of fish at night, so many people go out in the boat at that time to feed the whole family."
"Hey, people's lives are not easy." Xiang Changsong sighed, paused, and then said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Master told me last night that if you wake up, I will take you to the house for a formal tour. The master-apprenticeship ceremony has established the master-disciple status in a legitimate manner. Now that Junior Brother Liang is awake, come with me!"
Liang Qu was in high spirits.
"What I wish for!"
