"boom!"
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
It wasn't long before dawn.
Listening to the Rain Garden on a moonlit night, from the bamboo forest in the northwest corner, there was a dull sound of fists hitting the trees.
The sound was slow at first, then gradually became faster.
At the same time, the strength also changes from light to heavy.
First the fists, then the arms, shoulders, back, legs, etc., all violently collided and hit on the trunk of the thick tree.
The skin is like iron, the trunk is like a hammer, and the inner strength is like blazing fire.
Repeatedly hammering and tempering, thousands of times, hammer out impurities and refine it into refined iron!
Luo Qingzhou was afraid of breaking his clothes, so after his whole body became hot, he took off his clothes and only wore shorts. Then in this cold winter morning, he was naked and sweating like rain, and violently bumped his body over and over again. Hitting the tree trunk!
The skin begins to harden, then softens, and then hardens again.
Repeated many times, it starts to crack.
Pain comes.
He recovered briefly and continued to temper as fiercely as iron...
Sweating like rain.
There were traces of blood oozing from the cracked skin, but he did not stop, endured the pain, and continued to hammer violently...
The birds in the bamboo forest were frightened at first and fled around.
But in the end, he calmed down after discovering that this crazy human boy seemed to only like to hit trees and had no interest in little things like them.
The cold wind blows, and the branches and leaves of the bamboo forest rustle.
The yellow bamboo leaves fell down, covering the ground with a thick leaf carpet.
Among the lotus bushes in the lake outside, the green leaves waved and the red lotuses nodded, like a beautiful girl dancing under the clear water and blue sky.
The attic, reflected in the lake, stands in the winter sunshine and remains silent.
A day passes quietly.
The sun sets.
A pool of lake water was ruffled by the wind, and the sky was filled with clouds and clouds. The lake was sparkling like stars embedded in the lake. The red lotus roots were beautiful and the willows were intoxicated.
The scenery at dusk and evening is so beautiful.
After Luo Qingzhou finished practicing, he was covered in sweat and hungry.
When I was about to put on my clothes and go back, I suddenly saw the misty lake outside the bamboo forest.
Like the lake in Chengguofu, the water here is also warm. I wonder if it’s because of the natural hot springs below.
"Why don't you go down and take a shower before going back?"
Now my body is covered with sweat and dirt. If I want to go out, I have to put on these clean clothes, which will definitely get dirty.
And after returning home, I have to waste time boiling water to take a shower.
It is inconvenient to change water in a wooden barrel.
Normally I'm fine and my body is clean, a bucket of water is enough. But since I started practicing, a bucket of water is not enough at all.
After washing it once, the entire bucket of water turned black and it couldn't be washed clean at all.
The lake is warm and so big, it’s definitely a great place to take a bath.
Moreover, it was already evening at this time, and it would be dark soon, so no one would come.
Luo Qingzhou no longer hesitated, took his clothes and pants, walked out of the bamboo forest, glanced at the arch in the distance, and then carefully observed the lake and other places. After seeing that there was no one, he ran out quickly, and then " With a pop, he jumped into the lake in the corner.
Water splashed everywhere.
A stream of warm water instantly enveloped the entire body.
Cool!
This lake fruit is indeed a perfect place to take a bath!
It was cold and freezing on the shore, but the water was as warm as spring. My whole body was immersed in the water, and the aches and pains seemed to be relieved a lot.
Due to the large temperature difference, the lake surface is shrouded in mist and hazy.
He was in the water and almost no one could see him.
Even if someone comes close, it is difficult to spot it without looking carefully.
But it was getting dark and he didn't dare to stay longer.
I quickly rubbed my whole body over and over again, and after scrubbing all the dirt off my body, I immediately went ashore, put on my clothes and pants, and returned to the small courtyard.
Feeling warm and comfortable all over.
Xiaodie had already brought dinner and was waiting eagerly at the door.
After seeing him, he quickly said: "Master, are you going to the lake alone again? The slaves have been back for a long time. Go and eat quickly. The food is almost cold."
"You don't have to wait for me next time, just eat first."
Luo Qingzhou entered the small courtyard, sat down and started eating.
After a whole day of intense practice, the food in my stomach had already been digested, and my stomach began to growl in the afternoon.
Looks like I need to get more meat to eat in the future.
The secret book has already stated that cultivators should eat enough meat every day so that they can have the strength to persist in practicing, increase their energy and blood and strengthen their physique faster.
The qualitative change of the skin film is also inseparable from the continuous replenishment of energy.
Fortunately now, the requirements for leather refining are not too high.
When it comes to refining meat and bones, the daily amount of meat is required to be higher, and it is even stated that it is best to eat the flesh and blood of beasts, even monsters, so that the effect can be doubled with half the effort.
But now is not the time to worry about the future.
Refine your skin to perfection first, and then make plans for the future.
If you can't even pass the level of skin refining, there is no need to continue practicing in the future.
"Young Master has not eaten, so this servant cannot eat."
Xiaodie followed over and was stunned for a moment, staring at his hair suspiciously with her big eyes: "Master, why is your hair wet? Have you taken a shower?"
Luo Qingzhou felt there was no need to lie to her: "I washed in the lake in front."
Xiaodie suddenly opened her eyes wide and said with a frightened face: "Lake...in the lake? Young master went to the lake to take a bath alone? Oh, I heard from Sister Qiu'er that the water in the lake is so deep. If Young Master ...If something happens, what will I do?"
The little girl was so frightened that her voice became trembling when she spoke.
In her impression, the young master was too weak to go into the water. He would probably drown if he did.
Luo Qingzhou smiled and comforted: "It's okay, I can swim, and I wash right next to it. It's not too deep."
Then he said: "Xiaodie, the lake is like a hot spring. It's very comfortable to take a bath. You can also take a bath when the time comes."
Upon hearing this, Xiaodie hurriedly shook her head: "Master, I don't want it. Someone will see it there...there."
Luo Qingzhou smiled and said: "Very few people go there, and we can wait until dark before washing. It's full of fog and no one can see it."
Xiaodie opened her mouth, her face turned red, she glanced at him secretly, and said nothing.
Luo Qingzhou looked up and heard what she was saying: "I...we...Young master said that we...Young master want to wash with others...Is it okay to wash with others? It's so embarrassing...can it be done every night?" ?”
Luo Qingzhou: "..."
At this moment, Bai Ling's crisp and sweet voice suddenly came from the door: "Uncle, are you at home?"
Xiaodie woke up with a start and ran over to open the door.
Luo Qingzhou's eyes flashed, he put down his bowls and chopsticks, and looked at the door. His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, and his mind couldn't help but think of those two nights of love.
The courtyard door opens.
Bai Ling, wearing a pink dress, walked in cheerfully: "My uncle is still eating. Is it hard to study today?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her clear and bright eyes and her sweet face with slight dimples, then moved his gaze downwards, taking a quick look at her slender waist and graceful figure.
And, of course, the towering breasts.
However, nothing was seen.
"Miss Bai Ling, is there something wrong with you coming so late?"
Not daring to look elsewhere, he looked at the girl's sweet face and pink lips, thinking about the kiss that night.
Bai Ling raised her eyebrows and stood in front of him, looking at him with twinkling eyes and a smile on her pretty face: "Did you just peek at my breasts?"
Luo Qingzhou: "..."
Xiaodie on the side opened her eyes wide.
The small courtyard suddenly became quiet.
After a while.
Bai Ling chuckled and said with bright eyes and white teeth: "Uncle, I'm just joking. I came here tonight to tell my uncle that the weather is good tomorrow and the second lady will go to the Moon Viewing Tower. Ever since he entered the house, he has been I haven’t met the second young lady yet, would you like to meet her tomorrow?”
Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled, hesitated, and said, "It's better to disappear. I have to study at home tomorrow."
He must seize the time to practice.
It is said that the second young lady is weak and sickly. She usually stays in the house and does not come out. When she comes out tomorrow, she will definitely go out and play around.
His time can't be wasted there.
Bai Ling's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "Are you really missing?"
Luo Qingzhou said no more.
Bai Ling nodded and said: "Okay, then I will reply to the second young lady and say that my uncle thinks she is not as good-looking as the eldest lady, so I don't want to see her."
After saying that, he was about to leave.
Luo Qingzhou could only say: "Second Miss, do you want to see me?"
Bai Ling turned around and said: "Of course, the second young lady is weak. When her uncle and the eldest daughter got married, she couldn't come out to congratulate her, and she always felt guilty. It happened to be a nice day tomorrow, so she wanted to come out to meet her uncle, but she didn't expect him He actually dislikes her. If the second lady hears this, she will definitely be very sad."
Luo Qingzhou sighed and said: "How can I dislike the second young lady? If the second young lady is not afraid that I will stain her eyes, then I will just go see her tomorrow."
Bai Ling smiled and said: "Okay, then I will reply to the second lady."
Luo Qingzhou looked at her slim and graceful figure walking towards the door, and suddenly asked: "Miss Bailing, you smell so good. Do you smell like this every day?"
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, stopped, and turned to look at him.
After pausing for a few seconds, he suddenly smiled and said: "Are you hinting at something? I remember telling my uncle that if he wants me to sleep with him, he must get the consent of my young lady. Now he wants to go with my young lady. Tell me?"
Luo Qingzhou's eyes flashed, but before he could answer, she smiled coquettishly, waved her hand, and left gracefully.
After walking outside the door, he turned back and said crisply: "Uncle, I'm waiting for you at the lady's place. You have to come early."
After that, he walked away with a giggle.
