Chapter 1 The Hidden One

In the early spring of the second year of Xuande in the Ming Dynasty, next to a stream not far from the Huodun beside the Qinxiang Fortress of Zuoqianhusuo, the Dongshan Dusi of Fulong County, a young man of about seventeen or eighteen was scooping the clear river water from the river in a wooden barrel despite the chilly spring. The boy was gentle and had fair skin, but calluses on his hands, showing his identity as a warrior.

He carried the water to the side fire pier, poured the water into the water tank, and sat on a long wooden bench next to him to rest. According to the Ming Dynasty, fire pier was set up in the border areas. When the enemy robbed, smoke and drums were set up to warn. The fire pier here was one of the many fire piers. There was a small flag soldier in it, with a total of ten soldiers and a total of eighteen soldiers, along with his family. Why did the small flag enter?

Just as he was wiping his sweat, he heard someone shouting outside: "Wang Li! Your dad is almost out of work. Go home quickly!" He heard that it was Uncle Sun San, who was next to him, and he immediately asked He Jin for leave. After a flash of smoke, he rushed out of the Bianhuodun. When Uncle Sun San saw Wang Li, he immediately said: "Your dad is almost out of work. Go home quickly, maybe you will meet for the last time."

Wang Li's family lived in Qinxiang Fort, and his house was two and was quite grand in Qinxiang Fort. This house was appointed by Wang Li's grandfather. His grandfather used to be a 100-household official in the Imperial Army. Although the Imperial Army was not hereditary, the military salary was quite high. After retiring, he bought a ancestral home and more than 20 acres of fertile land. When Wang Li's father and brother split the family, Wang Li's father Wang Qiong was the eldest son, so he got a ancestral home and 100 acres of fertile land. However, over the years, Wang Qiong has been sick all the time, and now he has only 20 acres of barren land left, and he has barely survived the food and salary he served with Wang Li.

When Wang Li stepped into the yard, everyone was waiting at the gate of the yard. His child bride Qian Shuanger stood in the yard and said anxiously: "Brother Li is back? Hurry up and see daddy?" Wang Li lifted the curtain at the door and stepped in.

The light inside was dim, even during the day. His mother, Qiu, held Wang Qiong's head, her eyes were filled with tears, and her uncle Wang Lou was serving him. When Wang Qiong saw Wang Li, she suddenly became excited and said, "Li'er is back. Damn, uncle, you go out first, I want to say a few words to Li'er alone." Qiu was still hesitating, Wang Qiong pointed to the door and said, "Go quickly, go quickly! Don't let someone listen to Li'er and me!"

As soon as Qiu left, Wang Qiong asked Wang Li to sit next to him and said, "Lier, I have been taking medicine for my father all year round and can't do heavy work. I also have to buy medicine. The only family that your father has left is the ancestral home and more than 20 acres of thin land. I feel very guilty for my father!" Wang Li's nose felt sour, "Dad, stop talking, have a good rest."

Wang Qiong continued, "I haven't seen you marry Shuang'er, I regret your father for the rest of my life! You have worked hard all these years, and you are incompetent for your father!"

Wang Li whimpered, "Stop talking, Dad! My son is lucky in this life to serve Dad!"

At this time, Wang Qiong shook his hand under the pillow, touched it for a long time, took out two spirit stones from below, and said, "I'm the only one left for my father, just bury it after death. Keep these two spirit stones for you to marry Shuang'er." According to the exchange ratio, a spirit stone is equivalent to five taels of silver for a mortal.

When Wang Li cried bitterly, Wang Qiong suddenly whispered: "I have something to tell you today for my father, listen."

Wang Li nodded in a hurry, and Wang Qiong said: "When I was eight years old, I went to Zuoqianhu, Pengcheng to test and said that you have no spiritual roots and can only reach the level of mortals at most in your life. That is actually wrong!"

Wang Li was stunned when he heard this. There was no inaccurate test of the spiritual root. Wang Qiong said again: "You are not without spiritual roots, your spiritual roots are hidden spirit roots." The hidden spirit roots cannot be tested no matter what method they use. When the hidden spirit roots have their eighteenth birthday, they will wake up. On the day of awakening, the hidden spirit energy will rush around in the blocked meridians until they explode and die. If the spiritual consciousness is strong and you will be lucky enough to suppress the hidden spirit energy, you will not be able to practice for life and will barely survive until you grow old.

Wang Qiong took a break for a while and then said, "So, they believe that you have no spiritual roots. Before the age of eighteen, you are like an ordinary person. On your 18th birthday, 90% of you may die and 10% survive, but your meridians are damaged and you will not be able to practice martial arts for your whole life. You are not even as good as mortals, and you cannot reach the level of great success of mortals. It is really not as good as spiritual roots that you don't have."

After hearing this, Wang Qiong's body was cold and said, "Father, how did you know?"

Wang Qiong said: "Because my father is a possessor of hidden spirit roots! Only the awakened possessor of hidden spirit roots can discover the possessor of hidden spirit roots. After my father's 18th birthday, I was lucky enough to die and suffered from illness all day long. I wanted to die. But my father found that you are also a possessor of hidden spirit roots, so I have lived for so many years. Over the years, I have been trying variously, and sometimes I feel in pain, but I finally found a way to practice!"

Wang Qiong took a break and said, "Some people in ancient books have said that by continuously circulating hidden spiritual energy in the meridians, as long as you endure ten years of hard work, when the hidden spiritual energy turns into liquid state, the pain will disappear and will no longer cause destructive effects on the meridians!"

After hearing this, Wang Li couldn't help but be stunned and murmured: "Will you suffer ten years?"

Wang Qiong shook and took out a book from under the pillow. Wang Li took it and saw that it was Wang Qiong's handbook. Before he could read it carefully, Wang Qiong said again: "I have been practicing hard for my father for years and endured the pain of a knife every day. It is for this day! Over the years, I have discovered that hidden spiritual energy can be spread through blood. You, my father and son are connected with each other. I will pass on my hidden spiritual energy to you, which will save you from ten years of hard practice! Referring to my handbook, I will definitely achieve something, but you have to study the way you will go in the future! Haha, there is a spiritual root owner among a hundred people, and it is said that there is only one hidden spiritual root owner among a million people. You, my father and son are both possessed by hidden spiritual roots. What a miracle! "

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Qiong closed his eyes and rested for a long time before saying, "How do you feel now?"

Wang Li said: "I feel hotter and hotter in my body, and my dantian is hurting! It is getting more and more painful!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Qiong suddenly opened his eyes and said, "It's time! Put your hand over!"

Wang Li stretched out his right hand, Wang Qiong held a knife in his right hand, cut his palm, and then cut Wang Li's right hand, holding his hands tightly together. He shouted in a low voice: "Concentrate!" Wang Li held his mind when he heard this, and soon, he felt a cool air flow slowly along his meridians and towards his dantian.

Along the way, I encountered blockages and blockages in the meridians, and I actually passed by without hesitation.

Originally, the pain in Wang Li's dantian was embarrassing, but after this cool hidden spiritual energy encountered the dantian, it quickly rushed to the dantian, which was violently intertwined with the irritable hidden spiritual energy in Wang Li's dantian. Wang Li let out a long breath, and a series of comfortable feeling came from his heart.

At this time, Wang Qiong also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "In the past eighteen years, things finally came to fruition. Li'er, it's up to you to go back and forth. What is the use of this hidden spiritual energy? You still need to study it yourself."

Wang Li looked at his dry-shaped father and couldn't help but shed tears again. Wang Qiong smiled and said weakly: "It's a saying that men don't cry easily. Today, my son shed so many tears, just dry it at once. You can only shed blood and sweat, not cry!" After that, he died with a smile.

Wang Li put away Wang Qiong's handwritten book and started crying loudly.

Qiu outside heard Wang Li crying loudly, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. A group of relatives and friends rushed into the room and found that Wang Qiong had already gone.

The Wang family didn't have much money left, so Wang Qiong's funeral was not done well. Wang Li's uncle, Wang Lou, used the silver ten taels, and Qiu's funeral was not too simple.

For three days, Wang Li was so busy that the sky was dark and the earth was dark. In addition, he was in a gloomy mood, so he did not study too much about hidden spiritual energy. After three days, Wang Li immediately got up and went to Bianhuodun. After all, he was Bianhuodun's army, so he naturally had the military orders and could not stay at home for a long time. Fortunately, it was early spring, if it was autumn, it would probably take three days, because in autumn, the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom would go to Dongshandu to fight the autumn wind. At that time, the Dun army in Biandu could not ask for leave.

In his spare time, Wang Licai took out his father's handbook from his close-fitting pocket. He opened it and found that there were not many things inside, just a few thin pages. It was obtained by Wang Qiong's devoted work for more than ten years and enduring severe pain. According to Wang Qiong's research, hidden spiritual energy does not need to hold the spirit stone in his hand and absorb the spirit energy from the spirit stone like a spiritual energy practitioner. Instead, as long as the hidden spiritual energy is constantly circulating in the body according to the meridians, the hidden spiritual energy in his body will naturally increase. In addition, Wang Qiong also found that hidden spiritual energy has no effect of any spiritual energy, it cannot be destroyed, healed, stools, or formations. Anyway, it is impossible to do anything. Perhaps he hopes that hidden spiritual energy can leave the body and have some special effects. Maybe he hopes that it will be so hopeful.

Wang Qiong said in his heart: "In this way, this hidden spiritual energy does not have any effect. I can only hope that the hidden spiritual energy will have unexpected functions after leaving the body. When the spiritual energy is in the body, it can be scattered and scattered, and when outside the body, it can attack the enemy. I hope that the hidden spiritual energy is useless in the body and has some effect outside the body."

Thinking of this, he slowly circulated the hidden spiritual energy in the dantian according to the mantra left by his father. With repeated tests, his spiritual consciousness was finally able to call a part of the hidden spiritual energy. This liquid hidden spiritual energy slowly flowed along the meridians. Unfortunately, no matter how blocked the meridians were, the hidden spiritual energy could not do anything to the hidden spiritual energy. The hidden spiritual energy passed directly. Wang Li said in his heart: "Can this hidden spiritual energy also pass through the meridians? When he thought about this, the hidden spiritual energy immediately passed through the meridians. As soon as these hidden spiritual energy came into contact with the organs outside the meridians, Wang Li immediately felt a severe pain coming over, and he almost fainted due to the pain. He hurriedly incorporated the hidden spiritual energy into the meridians.

After running for more than an hour, he vaguely felt that his hidden spiritual energy had indeed increased. His mind moved slightly, and a stream of hidden spiritual energy surged out of Shaoshang acupoint. Wang Li could even feel the hidden spiritual energy coming out of Shaoshang acupoint in his body, about one foot long. He clenched his fists, aimed the hidden spiritual energy at the front, and touched the wall next to him. Unfortunately, there was no reaction. The hidden spiritual energy hit the wall and bounced back.
