I stayed in Xu Hongyu’s yard for a long time. It wasn't until noon that Chen Mu left quietly. But before he could return to the courtyard where he lived, he had just walked out of the main courtyard to the east when a figure who seemed to have been waiting for a long time came forward. He was dressed in a butler's attire and was old. He was the old butler of the Yu family. Master Chen, my servant has been waiting for you for a long time. The master said that the courtyard in the north is not suitable for you to live in. He has arranged a new courtyard for you in the east. It is slightly more spacious and has been cleaned. If you feel it is not suitable, you can choose another one. others. Butler Yu had a kind smile on his old face. As an old man who followed the previous generation of the Yu family in his early years, he had watched most of the fourth and even third generations of direct descendants on the east side of the main courtyard grow up. He was relieved that Xu Hongyu could find a suitable husband. The last time he saw Chen Mu, he felt that Chen Mu had a good temperament and behavior, but his talent might not be top-notch, but he didn't expect that Chen Mu could understand the artistic conception, and he would indeed be a good match for Xu Hongyu. It's troublesome, Mr. Yu. Chen Mu nodded slightly. Although his marriage to Xu Hongyu will not be settled soon, it is indeed not suitable to live in the two-entry courtyard in the north. In fact, he is also considering whether to move out of the Yu family, but the environment in the inner city is really a bit... special.
Basically all the areas suitable for living are occupied by the four major families, or some other vassal families, so except for the Yu family's residence, there is no other place to go in the huge inner city, unless you go to the outer city, or to Build your own manor outside the city, but that is not under consideration. Although staying in the Yu family residence has a strange feeling of bringing into the family, but as Yu Zuyi said, there are not so many things in the world. What's more, we are in an extraordinary period now, and we really shouldn't care too much about trivial matters. In the future, he will also It will definitely not stop at the county of Yucheng. No matter where it is, it will only be a temporary residence. As for whether he will be a lone swordsman who dominates the world in the future, or an overlord who rules an area, Chen Mu has not thought about it, because that is still far away from him now. Predicting things within one or two steps in advance is Preparing for a rainy day, strategizing, and imagining things dozens of steps away in advance are just conjectures and are meaningless. After a while. Chen Mu followed the old housekeeper to the new courtyard on the east side. It was a duplex nested courtyard behind Dongzheng Street. It was much larger than the previous two courtyards and required at least a dozen servants to clean it every day. care. Moreover, this place is not far from the main courtyard to the east, and basically belongs to the core area of the Yu family. Those who live nearby are either direct descendants of the Yu family, or more valued side branches. The manpower in the outer courtyard has been prepared for you. The maid in the inner court, you can buy it, or you can ask Xiaohe to select some people. Don't worry, sir. The old housekeeper led Chen Mu around and then said with a smile. There are basically no servants in the outer courtyard, but the maids and maids in the inner courtyard are not suitable for casual arrangements because they are close to the people, so Chen Mu should do it himself. Chen Mu looked at the inner courtyard, and after a brief thought, he felt that there was no need to deploy more manpower. The three girls Wang Ni, Ku'er and Le'er were basically enough. He didn't have that many places where he needed people to serve him. Even Too many people will cause trouble. Next is moving. Because they were all within the confines of the Yu family's residence, it wasn't really a move, and there was no need to choose any auspicious day. Chen Mu didn't have many things to move, so he quickly moved them to the new courtyard. So, the marriage between brother and sister Hongyu is finally settled? Chen Yue naturally moved to her new home, because the new home was a duplex with nested courtyards. There were several inner courtyards alone. She also had an independent inner courtyard. After settling in, she ran to Chen Mu's house and looked at Chen Mu. Blink, blink. Um. Chen Mu was cleaning up the house at this time. When he heard Chen Yue's words, he smiled and said, You have always been concerned about who your future sister-in-law is, and now you know it? Chen Yue looked at Chen Mu and couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: Sister Hongyu is very good, but... what should Xiaoru do? She and Yu Ru are now like sisters, knowing that Yu Ru may not have had any affection for Chen Mu earlier, but later Xu Hongyu asked about the marriage and went to Nancheng District again, and she still missed Chen Mu. The result was good. Xu Hongyu might have wanted to arrange for Yu Ru to marry Chen Mu at first, but when she turned around, it was Xu Hongyu who married Chen Mu herself. Yu Ru was left in the dark. She didn’t even know that Yu Ru knew about it. How will you feel after that?
Chen Yue's mumbling also fell into Chen Mu's ears. In other words, she mumbled like this on purpose to speak out for Yu Ru. Xiaoru...she is still young. Chen Mu paused for a moment and then said. He felt very calm in his heart. After all, he treated Yu Ru more like a sister at first. Moreover, Xu Hongyu treated Yu Ru almost the same as her own sister. He would naturally protect Yu Ru a lot in the future. Xu Hongyu, on the other hand, might not know how to talk to Yu Ru. Thinking of this, Chen Mu couldn't help but laugh in his heart. He wouldn't help talk anyway, so Hong Yu didn't think about herself at all at first, and just wanted to arrange a girl from the Yu family for him. finally. After cleaning up the house, Chen Mu looked at Chen Yue and said, Okay, stop looking, I'm going to practice. Chen Yue stuck out her tongue and left Chen Mu's yard. After sending Chen Yue away, Chen Mu came to the miscellaneous room next to the entrance of his yard. There was a burning stove in the room. Chen Mu went to the stove, took out the medicinal materials one by one, and put them in one by one according to the order of the medicine in the bone forging method. Compared with the Yijin method, the bone-forging method has fewer types, but it is slightly more complicated than the Yijin method. It not only requires taking the bone-forging pill internally and applying the bone-forging decoction externally, but also requires a set of boxing techniques to train the bones. The medicinal power can be better absorbed. Tiger Demon Bone Forging Fist. This is the bone-forging method that Chen Mu studied carefully while looking at the boiler. The entire bone forging method is also called the Tiger Demon Bone Forging Method. It is one of the best bone forging methods. It was created based on the fourth-level monster Tiger Demon. The medicine powder used for bone forging contains the marrow of the Tiger Demon. Just a medicinal powder is also very expensive. With Chen Mu's current net worth, it is a bit painful to buy it. After all, it is impossible to cash out that large piece of flame jade. The actual money he has on hand is only tens of thousands of taels. A portion of Tiger Demon Marrow is worth hundreds of taels of silver. After practicing this recipe, his monthly expenses will be basically It costs nearly ten thousand taels of silver. It is indeed true that he is poor in literature and rich in military affairs. In fact, there are cheaper and simpler bone forging methods, but they are inferior to the Tiger Demon Bone Forging Method. Today's Chen Mu will naturally not choose a bad training method. The bone forging realm is also about small success, great success and perfection. And just like skin grinding and flesh training, this bone forging realm also has a limit. Although this tiger demon bone forging method is not described in detail, I have seen it from the Daxuan Martial Arts. It is said that the bone forging realm can be practiced to the limit. , you can cultivate a pair of 'jade bones', the bones are flawless and crystal clear like jade. Even if the body is left in the wilderness to be exposed to wind and sun after death, the bones will still remain incorruptible for thousands of years! There was a little glimmer in Chen Mu's eyes. The bones left behind by ordinary people after death will soon decay and turn into dust after burial without treatment. Only characters in the Bone Forging Realm can survive for a long time after their bodies are decomposed after death. But if you want to achieve the level of immortality for thousands of years, you can only practice the bone forging realm to the limit and turn into jade bones. only. It is also extremely difficult for ordinary people to reach that level. Often among the existences of the Bone Forging Realm, there is only one person who can cultivate the Jade Bone. Those who can reach this level will definitely be able to step into the realm. The five internal organs realm! Whether a warrior can enter the five internal organs realm is closely related to his or her own Qi and blood. Often, the younger the person is and the richer the Qi and blood, the less difficult it is to break through the five internal organs realm, and vice versa. Usually after the age of thirty-five, the possibility of entering the five internal organs realm will be greatly reduced, and when reaching the age of forty, it is basically impossible to enter the five internal organs realm again. But it takes time to accumulate Qi and blood.
Either hunt monsters continuously, consume the blood essence of monsters, and then refine and consolidate it to improve Qi and blood, or be like Chen Mu, step by step, practice each realm to the limit, and condense Qi and blood to the extreme. The vast majority of warriors in the world can often only choose the path ahead, and cannot choose a route like Chen Mu, because it is very difficult to practice to the extreme in any realm. Unless the physique is special, it often requires It takes a lot of time, which can take three to five years or even seven or eight years. In that case, it is likely to delay the progress of the body tempering method itself, resulting in the fact that in the end it will not even be possible to complete the bone forging, let alone enter the five internal organs realm. In the county of Yucheng, there are still some people who are born with copper skin in every generation, but those who are born with copper skin and thick flesh and the body of vajra are very rare. It will take a long time for one to appear, usually They will all be accepted by Qixuan Sect. Only those who are born with the ability to refine skin and flesh to the limit with a little practice are qualified to immerse themselves in the muscle-changing or bone-forging levels for a while, trying to reach the realm of tiger and leopard thunder, or jade bone. Chen Mu pondered in his heart. These are actually very rare in the county of Yucheng. Like him, he has mastered the tiger and leopard thunder sound, and his physical strength alone can surpass the average bone forging minor and is comparable to the bone forging Dacheng. But if there are large sects such as Tianjian Hehuan and Blood Hidden Mystery, the best among them must have talents and qualifications that are superior to countless others. What they compete with is the foundation of each realm. After all, as it is said in the martial arts canon, whether you can practice the four realms of skin-grinding, flesh-refining, and muscle-forging to the limit not only affects the difficulty of entering the five internal organs realm, but also greatly affects the martial artist's ability to enter the five internal organs realm. Strength and weakness after that. In Yucheng, those who can reach the five internal organs realm are considered to be the most powerful people in the world. Naturally, these strengths and weaknesses are not important. But if you look at one state, or even several states, among the true geniuses and even those who can reach a higher level, these foundations and heritage are the top priority. alright. Chen Mu put down the pamphlet in his hand and looked at the stove. He saw that a gray liquid like a slurry of lead and mercury had been boiled out of the kettle used to boil the medicine. Chen Mu picked up the medicine pot and went to the room on the west side of the yard, and walked all the way to the innermost side. It was separated by several partitions and had no windows. In a dark quiet room, this was the practice room he had arranged. , and no one is allowed to enter at ordinary times. Take off your clothes quickly. Take out a bone forging pill and drink it. Then he put his hand into the medicine pot and took out a handful of the lead-mercury silver-gray liquid in the medicine pot while it was hot. It felt extremely sticky, like a plaster. Without any pause, Chen Mu quickly followed the diagram in his memory and applied the sticky silver-gray plaster to specific parts of his body inch by inch. Soon, the entire body was still exposed except for a few parts. Except for this, other places were covered, as if it had turned into a gray wax statue, frozen in place. Every inch of the area that was smeared had white mist rising.
