Chapter 7 The Way of the Flesh(1/2)
Changchun courtyard.
He Jianlan looked dignified and sat on the polished golden nanmu Taishi chair. She listened to the timid report from the young servant in front of her, and her heart moved slightly.
I had long heard that the child was precocious and very smart, but it was a pity that he had no martial arts talent, so his intelligence was in vain.
Thinking of the letter home from the frontier fortress, He Jianlan sighed secretly in her heart and said lightly: "Xue Jian, go and take a look at that child, as long as you don't tear up the book."
"yes."
Next to him, a woman with almond eyes, red lips, and fair complexion responded softly.
…
The instructions from Changchun Yuan were conveyed outside Tingyu Building. Li Hao looked at the little girl who came to supervise, a little surprised, but he didn't care. After all, he was too young, so it was normal for the eldest lady to be worried about entering the building alone.
They were both domestic servants, but Uncle Zhao's status was obviously lower than the little girl named Xuejian, so he was kept outside the building by the other party.
Inside the ancient building, the light was slightly dim, and there was a layer of dust on the ground.
Row after row of bookshelves were displayed in the building, towering and huge. Li Hao looked at them as he walked. There were wooden signs on the sides of these bookshelves, classifying them into categories.
There are sword skills, knife skills, spear skills, weapons, poisons, etc.
There are many kinds of books, almost everything you need.
Li Hao couldn't help but sigh.
This small building contains almost half of the world.
Not long after, Li Hao found a secret book on body training. The bookshelf was densely packed with various hard exercises for body training.
"Vajra Technique", "Nine Transformations of the Divine Turtle", "Seven Star Seal", etc.
Li Hao casually picked up a secret book called "Stone Skin Hundred Refiners" and leaned on the bookshelf to read it.
The building was extremely quiet, with only two breathing sounds, one large and one small.
Xue Jian followed Li Hao quietly like a shadow. She behaved well and her temperament was even better than that of an ordinary young lady from a powerful family. She looked at the young master who had been attracting attention since birth, and there was a trace of emotion in her eyes.
curious.
As expected, he looks very precocious and seems to be literate.
And if he looks at it so carefully, can he really understand it?
Time passes.
Li Hao read the first chapter of the secret book over and over again, understanding every word. After an unknown amount of time, a message that made him happy finally appeared in front of him:
"I have learned a few things, do you want to include them?"
Li Hao directly chose yes.
Soon, the panel in front of him jumped out.
[Name: Li Hao]
【Age: 4】
[Cultivation: Ordinary]
[Swordsmanship: Second Stage]
[Skill: Endless Sea·Tide (Ultimate) [Forbidden]]
[The Way of the Flesh: Uninitiated]
[Skill: Stone Skin Hundred Refinements (Not Beginner) {Forbidden}]
[Chess course: 2nd stage (18/1000)]
[Collection of chess records and illustrations: 0]
[Art Skill Points: 0]
Seeing that the collection was successful, Li Hao was a little surprised. His guess was correct. In this way, he could officially start practicing.
But before that, he still needs to accumulate new skill points.
Thinking of this, Li Hao suddenly became sad again.
Gaining experience on your own is very fast, but playing against others is much slower.
It took three days to accumulate 18 experience points, but the tool man was already scared away.
He had to find a way to find a stable tool... Li Hao thought to himself, stuffing the secret book in his hand back into the bookshelf, then turned to the little girl behind him and asked: "Where is the best body training secret book?"
building?"
Xuejian was slightly surprised, this child actually knows how to train?
Who taught it?
Could it be the lieutenant colonel of the army who built his foundation?
The meridians are blocked, so you want to take the pure path of body training... A flash of realization flashed in Xuejian's eyes, and he said softly: "Return to the young master, listen to the most powerful body training secret book collected by Yulou. It is on the sixth floor. I will take you there.
past."
"Isn't it on the seventh floor?"
Li Hao was slightly disappointed and said: "The strongest should refer to the only one, right?"
"Because one piece is complete and can be practiced, while the other is a fragment and can be practiced, but not to the extreme." Xuejian said.
Li Hao was a little surprised. Can he enter the sixth floor with the remaining chapters?
Soon, under the leadership of the little girl, Li Hao was carried to the sixth floor.
He climbed up by himself and was already tired by the time he reached the third floor.
The higher you go up, the fewer the secret books in the building. By the sixth floor, there are only a few short bookshelves left. After a rough look, the total number of secret books on them is estimated to be only twenty or thirty.
However, Li Hao did not underestimate this number. After thousands of years of accumulation by the Li family, these twenty or thirty books were probably worth a lot of money if they were left outside.
Soon, Xuejian brought the two body-training secrets she mentioned back to Li Hao.
One is "The Holy Body of Thousand Dragons".
The other book is called "The Beginning".
The covers are somewhat worn and old, and if left in an ordinary home, they would probably become tatters used to prop up the legs of a table.
Li Hao took it and looked through it one by one.
Just the beginning of the secret book made him feel that it was very different from what he had read on the first floor.
I...can't understand it at all.
What is said above is extremely obscure, just like reading classical Chinese, oh no, it should be said to be oracle bone inscriptions. It is difficult to recognize a few words, but when they are connected together, it is completely incomprehensible.
Li Hao's little face wrinkled together.
He bit the bullet and continued watching for a while, and finally gave up decisively.
It’s hard to even scratch the surface on your own.
"When I first watched that little kid practice swordplay, I watched it for several days before including "The Endless Sea". Then I just watched people practice it. This is self-study..."
Li Hao shook his head and decided to wait until he accumulated enough skill points to improve his physical body before trying again.
He let Xuejian carry him downstairs.
Although Li Hao wanted to learn other types of secrets, he obviously didn't have the energy for the time being.
Without technical skills, everything is in vain, and the problem comes back to...people who lack tools.
After leaving Tingyu Tower, Li Hao said goodbye to this little girl who treated others well, and then returned to Shanhe Courtyard with Uncle Zhao.
"Brother Hao."
Seeing Li Hao coming back, Bian Ruxue ran over immediately, tripped on her feet and almost fell down.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious." Li Hao said quickly.
"Where is Brother Hao? Can you take me with you from now on?" Bian Ruxue pursed her lips and looked at him eagerly.
Over the past year, the little girl has been clinging to Li Hao, and would go to Li Hao's room at night holding her own pillow. Only in this way would she sleep obediently.
Li Hao drove her away several times at first, but the little girl woke up in the middle of the night several times and came to Li Hao crying, with tears in her eyes, which finally made Li Hao unable to be cruel.
Fortunately, the bed was big and my body was small, so the little girl could sleep peacefully without making any noise, so I just let her go.
"You have to be obedient. As long as you stay here, I will come back no matter where you go." Li Hao touched her little head and said.
The servants and maids nearby were used to this scene and were not surprised.
"Hook."
Bian Ruxue stretched out her little hand.
Li Hao had no choice but to coax her into pulling the hook.
"Don't change, you said, whoever changes will be a puppy." Bian Ruxue said with a slight pout.
To be continued...
