It was almost noon when Qin Ziling pushed Liu Xiaoqiang back to his home in Anhe Village.
Liu Xiaoqiang had been to Qin Ziling's house, and he had gone to the fields to help the Qin family during busy farming days. Therefore, Cui and Yan Ranyue both knew Liu Xiaoqiang and knew that he was Qin Ziling's apprentice who had a good relationship with him in the martial arts school.
At first glance, everyone was shocked when they saw Liu Xiaoqiang, a young man who was as strong as an ox. Now his face was as golden as paper, and he was lying on the cart with difficulty even breathing.
"Ranyue, please help take care of Liu Xiaoqiang first." Qin Ziling did not wait for his mother and Yin Ranyue to speak. He already ordered Yin Ranyue, then took his mother's hand and whispered: "Mom, let's go to the back room, I have Let me tell you."
Cui glanced at Liu Xiaoqiang, nodded thoughtfully, and then entered the inner room with Qin Ziling.
After entering the room, Qin Ziling first briefly introduced Liu Xiaoqiang's injuries, and before he could express his thoughts in detail, Ms. Cui interrupted: "Do you want to take Liu Xiaoqiang in?"
"Yes, mother. I know this will greatly increase the burden on our family, but don't worry, I am very experienced in practicing martial arts now, and I should be able to break through to the skin membrane realm soon. Once I break through to the skin membrane realm, my ability will definitely It's easy to make money." Seeing his mother reveal his thoughts, Qin Ziling spoke frankly.
"You don't need to be under too much psychological pressure. Although our family's current situation is much poorer than before, it is still better than those poor families in the village. Mom also hid some savings for your marriage. If you open your mouth, life will definitely be more difficult, but if you are more frugal, you can still get through it. But in this case, your mother will not be able to give you a betrothal gift for a girl from a good family, and you will have to make do with Ranyue in the future. Ranyue is a good girl, but she doesn’t have any family background, so you don’t have to dislike her,” Cui said.
"Mom, do you agree?" Qin Ziling originally thought that it would take a lot of words to convince his mother, but she didn't expect that he didn't even need to beg, and she agreed. She couldn't help but said with a look of surprise and surprise, as for living a makeshift life with Yin Ranyue, At this time, Qin Ziling didn't listen at all.
He is only nineteen years old now, and Yin Ranyue is only seventeen. In the world he lived in before, they were still students who were forbidden to fall in love.
"You are nineteen years old. You should be the one to make the decision in the Qin family! Now that you have made your decision, my mother will naturally support you. Moreover, my mother still remembers your father's helplessness when he was ill. So, then I always hope that someone can give my mother a hand. Now that Liu Xiaoqiang is like this, my mother can't bear to compare his feelings with his own," Ms. Cui said.
"Thank you, mother. Don't worry, I will definitely revive the Qin family soon." Qin Ziling said.
"You silly boy, okay, get out quickly, so that Liu Xiaoqiang won't be upset." Ms. Cui said.
"Yeah." Qin Ziling nodded and hurriedly left the inner room. Cui followed behind. Looking at the strong back that had grown to 1.8 meters without realizing it, the corners of his eyes became moist without realizing it.
After leaving the inner room, Mrs. Cui comforted Liu Xiaoqiang, which made Liu Xiaoqiang's hanging heart finally fall to the ground.
Otherwise, if Mrs. Cui disagrees or has a cold and bad attitude, even if Qin Ziling decides to take him in, Liu Xiaoqiang will be worse off than dead if he stays alone.
Qin Ziling asked Yin Ranyue to clean up the left wing of the east wing to accommodate Liu Xiaoqiang for easy care.
After everything was arranged, the family and Liu Xiaoqiang, an outsider, had lunch together. After Qin Ziling explained the decoction, he hurried to the martial arts studio.
He took a Yixue pill in the morning, and the effects of the medicine were still flowing. He didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Back at the martial arts hall, Qin Ziling kept slapping the bag of fine iron sand mixed with special medicinal materials with the front and back of his palm.
This time, Qin Ziling felt more clearly that when he exerted force on his palms, waves of energy and blood were like ocean waves, one after another surging through the muscles and bones, impacting the thick skin of his palms.
And when he slapped his palm on the fine iron sand bag, there was a striking force with medicinal power impacting from the outside in, which coincidentally collided with the impact of the inner energy and blood power.
The two forces continue to impact each other, hammering and tempering the skin of the palm, and a trace of Qi and blood is forcibly squeezed into the skin. A large part of this Qi and blood turns into heat energy and rushes out, but a very small part does not. If left on, it will continue to nourish and strengthen the skin, making it denser and tougher.
Qin Ziling felt the mutual impact of the two forces. The qi and blood were continuously being forcibly hit and squeezed into the skin under the impact of the two forces. He carefully tried to consciously control the skin membrane, trying to seal more qi and blood.
After this attempt, Qin Ziling found that more energy and blood were left in the skin membrane, causing the skin membrane to turn faintly red.
"That's it! When the skin is bloody, there is not enough Qi and blood, and it is difficult for Qi and blood to reach the skin and hair effectively. Therefore, people with malnutrition often have yellow complexions and gray hair with no luster. I used to be unable to keep up with my nutrition. With insufficient Qi and blood, no matter how hard he practices, how much Qi and blood will impact the skin of his palms, and how much Qi and blood will be retained by the skin? In addition, Qin Ziling's original talent is average, his internal senses are dull, and he cannot detect Qi and blood at all. The impact on the skin membrane changes cannot be guided consciously. I only know how to slap stupidly, and the effect is naturally very poor. No wonder I haven’t even touched the threshold of the skin membrane in the past three years of practicing martial arts. But now I take Yixue Pills, and my qi and blood are sufficient. Coupled with the keen inner sense and the ability to guide it consciously, the effect is immediately apparent!" Qin Ziling felt that with every tap, his skin became slightly tougher and stronger, and he was surprised and emotional at the same time.
Throughout the afternoon, Qin Ziling seemed to be unaware of fatigue and pain. He used the secret of Cold Iron Palm to use his strength to continuously beat the fine iron sand bag, while trying to guide the blood and control the skin membrane, trying to seal the pain that was squeezed in by the forceful blow. Qi and blood of the skin.
The skin film becomes more and more red, as if there is a layer of flame burning under the skin.
"Why bother?" Everyone in the martial arts gym shook their heads when they saw Qin Ziling's almost crazy and self-abuse practice.
"Zi Ling, too much is too little. If you really hurt your muscles and bones, you will be in trouble!" Zheng Xinghan stepped forward and said to Qin Ziling.
"Thank you, senior brother, I know it well." Qin Ziling grinned at Zheng Xinghan, but did not stop slapping his palms.
Seeing that Qin Ziling refused to listen, Zheng Xinghan had no choice but to shake his head and let him go.
"Senior brother, what are you trying to persuade such an idiot to do? He doesn't even think about it. If he really trains so hard, he can break through to the skin-membrane realm. The warriors in the skin-membrane realm have long since disappeared. After practicing for almost three years, he still can't touch it. The threshold of skin membrane, this kind of qualification is a waste even if he takes Yixue Pill! He pretends to be a hero to save and take in Liu Xiaoqiang, who does he think he is?" Nangong Yue stepped forward and said to Zheng Xinghan.
Hearing this, Zheng Xinghan forced a smile at Nangong Yue, then turned around and left. When he turned around, a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.
Although he didn't agree with Qin Ziling's approach, and it was difficult to put himself in someone else's shoes, he still admired Qin Ziling in his heart.
Especially since Qin Ziling is practicing martial arts so crazily now, he clearly feels the pressure to take in Liu Xiaoqiang and makes a last-ditch effort. Even if others don't agree, who have the right to laugh at him?
