Chapter 9 Drinking and Kung Fu

In the huge Fengjiang Mansion Yamen, there are only two people in the world, Chen Mu and Cao Zhengxiang.

It's already autumn in October, and it's raining outside.

The scene looks somewhat deserted and bleak.

There are four dishes and one soup on the round table in the lobby, and the food is pretty decent.

Cao Zhengxiang's cooking skills, in Shen Mu's opinion, are comparable to those of a proficient cook.

Especially the tomato scrambled eggs and egg persimmon soup.

Cao Zhengxiang took the chopsticks lightly and sipped the rice in small mouths, eating very elegantly.

He saw everything that happened during the day. In fact, he had some questions and curiosity in his heart, but he chose to ignore it.

In the world of spiritual practice, no one has any secrets. In fact, these are not important, because once many things become transparent, life will lose a lot of fun.

Gudududu!

There is a copper basin filled with water on the charcoal stove under the table, and the water in it is boiling.

Cao Zhengxiang put down the bowls and chopsticks, brought the copper basin to the table, and put a pot of green wine on the hot water to scald lightly.

Presuming that the fire was almost done, he took out two celadon blue-glazed wine dishes from somewhere.

The mouth of the dish is open and natural, and the glaze color is warm and cool to the touch.

I saw Cao Zhengxiang pouring the hot wine into the cup, and something interesting happened.

There was originally nothing at the bottom of the wine saucer, but after the wine saucer was filled, a pink cherry blossom tree appeared in an instant. The branches moved without wind, and the cherry blossoms fluttered like snow, reflecting in the cup.

Chen Mu looked surprised and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This old man has quite a lot of weird things. The silk handkerchief he holds in his hand all day long is quite interesting, but he didn't expect the drinking dishes to be so surprising.

Chen Mu picked up the wine plate, poured the wine in the glass and the seemingly absent cherry blossoms into his mouth. In an instant, the aroma of cherry blossoms overflowed in his throat.

My mind is clearer and my whole body feels better.

Chen Mu's eyes widened and he looked at Cao Zhengxiang: "Old Cao, why did this wine... become sweeter?"

Cao Zhengxiang smiled slightly, and said with obvious pride: "Hey, Sir, I am in a good mood today. My pair of wine dishes are not ordinary. They are called 'Drunken Cherry Blossoms under the Moon'. I was originally a benefactor from Wanhua Island back then." The wine was overhauled and fired, and was later presented as tribute to the Sui Emperor. It also took several twists and turns to get into my hands. No matter what wine is put into this wine dish, it will always have the sweet smell of cherry blossoms."

After Cao Zhengxiang finished speaking, he drank all the wine in his hand, and then shook his head proudly: "When the warm wine is put into the cup, cherry blossoms appear, and when the flowers fall, the wine becomes sweet..."

Chen Mu pursed his lips, feeling quite interesting.

He poured another glass by himself, carefully looked at the beautiful scenery in the wine dish, and followed Cao Zhengxiang's example and drank the beautiful scenery in one gulp.

Close your eyes and feel the beauty.

…

…

After drinking and eating, Shen Mu went back to his room to rest alone.

Maybe it was because I was drunk with Cao Zhengxiang's strange cherry blossoms, but I lost all sleep.

[Realm: Body Refining Realm (72%)]

【Reputation:-148】

[Percentage of Dali luck: 0.045%]

[1: Invincible Experience Volume in Fengjiang City: 2]

【2:Map:Open】

[3: Magical weapon ‘Scroll of Time’]

【……】

Chen Mu opened the home system panel in his mind.

After about two days of operation and exploration, I have basically adapted to the use of the system.

He roughly thought about his future core direction.

First, you must become stronger and have a strong fist. This is definitely the first rule of survival.

He could see that this Fengjiang City was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and that Dali Capital had a completely indifferent attitude towards him, and he basically couldn't count on it.

If you want to avoid being bullied or having your life threatened in the future, you must grow up.

Second, do anything that benefits Fengjiang City and get rewards.

Third, improve the happiness index of Fengjiang City residents.

Fourth, accumulate reputation, the more, the better.

In fact, these general guidelines are the same. After all, he needs to keep in mind that he will live and die with Fengjiang City.

No one can predict what will happen in the future, but we must prepare for a rainy day.

This is the border. If a fight breaks out one day, it is likely to become a target of public criticism.

Therefore, not only does oneself become stronger, Fengjiang City and Fengjiang people also need to become stronger.

Of course, this is all for later.

What we need to do now is to improve ourselves.

While thinking about it, Chen Mu took out some of the trophies he got today.

A small bottle of body tempering pill, a black iron ball, and a jade slip talisman.

He had almost learned the origins of these things in the Time Scroll before.

According to what the Wuliangshan disciple said, this black iron ball is a sword pill for a Longmen realm swordsman. After using it, it can be compared to a martial arts realm strike. It looks very powerful.

There's just one problem, Shen Mu doesn't know how to use Jianwan at all!

[Tip: Pay 300 reputation to find out how to use this sword pill]

"..." Chen Mu had a dark look on his face and was a little speechless.

Is this a deliberate attempt to make me angry?

The panel just showed that the reputation was minus 148, not to mention 300. He didn't have a single reputation point.

Helplessly throwing the sword pill aside, Chen Mu took out the jade slip and talisman.

This was also mentioned in the Time Scroll. It is a high-level skill from the inner sect of Wuliang Mountain and should be very precious.

Chen Mu has the impression of practicing the exercises in his memory.

My predecessor, Magistrate Shen, had learned the same martial arts and boxing techniques that Shen Mu had used when fighting monsters.

Although the two carriers are different, one is a book and the other is a jade slip and amulet.

However, Shen Mu guessed that the usage should be similar.

If you want to read the exercises, you need to integrate your spiritual consciousness into them.

Chen Mu closed his eyes and tried to enter the jade slip talisman in his hand.

Although the strength of the body refining realm is weak, body tempering is not only about breaking through the physical body, but also about tempering the soul, so there is still some spiritual power.

a long time,

A crisp sound rang in my ears.

Then the jade slips and talismans began to shine, and golden words flew out from the jade slips and talismans, and wormed into Shen Mu's eyebrows in groups.

He actually started reading the exercises!

Of course, Shen Mu did it purely by mistake. If Liu Changfeng saw it, he would definitely laugh and call Shen Mu a fool looking for death.

You know, jade slips and talismans are also talismans.

The reason why the skills are imprinted in it is for protection.

Wuliang Mountain's talisman lineage has quite a lot of doorways. As for this jade slip talisman, if there is no way to forcibly peek and read it, any monk who has not reached the middle martial arts realm will almost suffer severe damage to his soul.

The main reason why Chen Mu was okay was because the jade slip and talisman had been forcibly destroyed and broken by the big monster with green face and fangs long ago.

It's just that they were killed before they had time to learn, and they worked for others in vain.

Chen Mu got a big deal, and he didn't even know it yet.

At this moment, dense words appeared in his mind.

There are big characters written at the top.

The Secret Treasure of Wuliang Mountain.

Infinite Golden Body Technique!
