Wu Sheng starts from strengthening

Chapter 2 Cultivation
The Lin family has been in the medicinal material business for many years in Rongzhou, and is now a well-known medicinal material merchant in the city.

His residence is located in the "rich district" in the inner city of Rongzhou, not far from the government office.

The Lin Mansion has a canteen that provides meals for the servants, and the elite rank of servants such as Nursing Yuan even have a special small stove.

It cannot be said that big fish and big meat are guaranteed.

After having dinner in the dining hall, Pan Ye returned to his residence - a small courtyard in the outer courtyard of the Lin Mansion.

This courtyard was rewarded by the Patriarch of the Lin family, and he promised that as long as the Pan family had it, they could live there forever.

Pan Ye opened the mildewed wooden door and walked into the yard.

The yard is small, with only two tile-roofed houses, one is the bedroom where their father and son live, and the other is the kitchen where the fire is made and cooked.

There is also a willow tree with thick branches planted in the corner of the courtyard, but the leaves on the branches have all fallen off, making it look bare.

In Pan Ye's memory, the memory of his mother is vague and distant. He has never seen his mother since he was sensible.

Pan Ye went back to the house and hid the relics. When he came to the yard, he recalled the exercise method in "Zhenyang Body Training Method" in his mind. Breathing at a strange rate.

Even though it was the first time he practiced this exercise, every posture of his was very standard, no different from what was recorded in his mind.

It is said in the book that those who enter the state of body training will be filled with qi and blood, their strength will be multiplied, their skin will be as tough as cowhide, and it will be difficult for ordinary swords to cut them.

Ordinary people, if they don't have advanced body training methods, can only hit the body with blunt objects, take blood-enriching medicines to enhance qi and blood, and only after years and years can they step into the state of body training.

Pan Ye sometimes crawled, sometimes bowed, sometimes stood still, and sometimes crawled, acting like a beast in the mountains.

When he changes his body shape, his breathing rate will also change, either rapid or long, and a large amount of white steam escapes from his mouth and nose, which is a phenomenon of massive consumption of blood.

When Pan Ye practiced the first movement of the second pose, he didn't last for a few breaths, but his whole body was sweating profusely, feeling mentally exhausted, and it was difficult to continue.

Pan Ye wiped off his sweat, sat on the bluestone slab, panting slightly.

After learning the "Zhenyang Body Training Method" for the first time, he felt that his physical strength had become slightly stronger.

"According to the current progress, it will take at least a month before the completion of the 24 forms and the promotion to the body training level, but I don't know if the group who beat up the predecessor will let it go.

"By the way, since rosary beads can strengthen items, strengthening potions that are beneficial to the body may speed up the cultivation speed, but there is no energy in the rosary beads."

Pan Ye raised his hand and looked at the rosary beads in his hand, which had already faded.

"Go back to the antique shop in the city to see if there is anything that contains mysterious energy."

After setting a goal, he stopped worrying, got up and went to the well to get a bucket of well water and carried it back to the kitchen. After a few rounds, there was a large steaming tub filled with hot water in the yard.

With a cloth towel covering his forehead, Pan Ye sat relaxed in the bathtub.

In the previous life, whenever things went wrong for him and he was in a bad mood, he would go to the bathing center to take a bath and find a little girl to massage his body, so that the pressure in his heart would be relieved a lot.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Pan Ye was woken up by the biological clock on time.

Today is a working day, he got up and washed up briefly, and went to the dining hall to have breakfast.

As a nursing home, Pan Ye's daily work is very simple, similar to the security guards in his previous life, including: standing guard, patrolling the mansion, and sometimes traveling with the master's house, or going out to deliver medicinal materials.

"Aye, come here!"

As soon as Pan Ye stepped into the dining hall, he saw a chubby young man sitting behind the table waving to him.

He quickly recalled the identity of this person, waved slightly to the young man, made a breakfast and sat in front of him.

Breakfast is pickles, porridge, steamed buns, simple but filling.

"Morning, Brother Hong."

"Yeah." The young man named Shi Hong lowered his head and took a sip of porridge and said, "Today we will go to the outer city with Chen Guanshi to collect medicinal materials."

Shi Hong was also a guard, and they had a good relationship on weekdays, and they were one of Pan Ye's few friends in the Lin Mansion.

"Who asked for leave?"

Because of Pan Hai, Pan Ye had been doing some patrol work in the mansion before.

"No one, I heard that the rebel army has occupied some towns in Huizhou, and a large number of refugees have moved south. Rongzhou has recently poured in a lot of refugees." Shi Hong opened his mouth and stuffed a steamed bun into his mouth, and said vaguely: "In order to prevent accidents, more We have sent guards, after all, the acquisition of medicinal materials is the top priority."

"Is everyone here?"

While the two were talking, a middle-aged man with a mouse whisker walked in from the outside.

"Zhang Dali, Pan Ye, Shi Hong..."

He looked around the hall, tapped the names of the six people, and said, "It's getting late, you follow me."

This rat-whiskered man is exactly the steward Chen that Shi Hong was talking about, and the two of them are also on the list.

Pan Ye quickly cleaned up the remaining food, wiped his mouth, and went out with the others.

Rongzhou city is divided into inner and outer cities, and the inner city is located in the north of the city. In addition to government offices, prefectural and pastoral offices and other power agencies, there are high-consumption places such as dignitaries in the city, rich merchants and rich mansions, and restaurants, medical clinics, and silk shops.

The outer city is roughly divided into more than a dozen square cities, with each square city as the center, radiating outward, including the basic necessities of ordinary people, traffickers, and pawns.

None of the seven people took any means of transportation. Fortunately, the destination was not far from the Lin Mansion, and it was a square city located at the junction of the inner and outer cities.

After Pan Ye walked for half an hour, an archway named "Cangxia Archway" appeared in his field of vision.

As soon as I entered Fangshi, I heard all kinds of noise and the smell of food in front of me.

On both sides of the road, there are vendors yelling and hawking, selling melons, fruits and vegetables, tea oil, sauce and vinegar, handicrafts and antiques, everything.

Some ragged beggars with disheveled faces curled up in the corner, carefully looking for suitable begging targets.

To Pan Ye's surprise, there were still other people here.

Most of them are blond and well-dressed, standing in front of the antique tea stalls.

While watching the bustling market curiously, Pan Ye followed the crowd to the place where the Lin family bought medicinal materials.

This is a square with a large area and the ground is rammed with loess. At this time, many people have gathered.

As far as the eye can see, there are a lot of categories, and huge piles of medicinal materials are tied to wooden carts, and many shop assistants from the Lin family shop are bargaining with the medicinal material dealers.

Some of these medicinal material dealers are second-hand traffickers who purchase medicinal materials from the countryside and sell them in the city, and some are farmers who make a living by growing medicinal materials.

As soon as Chen Guanshi arrived at the square, he waved to Pan Ye and the others, signaling them to maintain order at the scene.

And he was sitting in the arbor with a leisurely expression on his face. When the people around him saw his arrival, they immediately crowded around in front of the arbor.

Fortunately, the Lin Mansion is very powerful in Rongzhou City. Although there are many more people at the site of the acquisition than usual, no conflicts occurred.
