The Book of Heaven

Chapter 86 Elder

After this happiness passed, Ma Zheng lowered his head and found that the skin of his hands exposed outside his clothes was red and purple, and the dots dotted with black seemed to come out from the skin.

"It's not like this all over the body, is it?"

Not knowing exactly what the third uncle did last night, Ma Zheng unbuttoned his clothes worriedly, his physical condition really shocked him.

"It's the same on the face?"

There was no mirror in the side hall. Fortunately, Ma Zheng was smart, so he quickly poured a cup of tea, and after looking at it, he was slightly relieved, as if his face was still normal.

But what are these little black dots?
As soon as Ma Zheng thought that he was going to Tianshui City in two days, even if he didn't show his feet on the way, would it be possible that he could keep hiding until the martial arts competition started?
"Hey, the letter left by third uncle?"

Ma Zheng, who was very nervous, found a letter under the secret book, which must have been left by his third uncle, and told Ma Zheng not to worry, those black dots are actually toxins in his body, as long as Ma Zheng practiced diligently in the past two days , can force those black spots out of the body, of course, whether they can force them all out depends on Ma Zheng's own ability.

"Could this be the so-called muscle washing?"

Thinking of Huang Tie's description of the efficacy of chalcedony, Ma Zheng naturally thought of this, but the third uncle didn't make it clear in the letter how to do it for the best effect.

Holding the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, Ma Zheng studied the secret book and seized the time to practice his skills and breath. After a day of hard work, the red and purple color on his forearms really faded away, and even the black under the skin Small dots are also forced out of the skin and can be wiped away with hands.

This process was so mysterious that Ma Zheng was amazed.

"Is it really the toxin in the body?"

Rubbing those black dots with his fingers, what Ma Zheng was thinking about was the poison that the third uncle had injected into the potion. I wonder if the chalcedony can also force out those poisons?

If that's the case, don't you need to take a bath next time?Thinking of this, Ma Zheng felt something was wrong again. If chalcedony really had such a miraculous effect, how could the third uncle be unprepared?

"It's over, he won't add another more overbearing poison to the bath water next time, will he?"

Apart from this question that Ma Zheng couldn't fathom, there was another serious question before Ma Zheng.

There were only about fifteen hours left, Ma Zheng was not at all sure whether the short fifteen hours would be enough to restore his body to its original state.

In fact, Ma Zheng was worrying in vain. After being slapped and guided by the third uncle, the chalcedony has been perfectly integrated with Ma Zheng's body. Although it can't exert its full power now, no one can separate it. .

Even if he bled Ma Zheng, he couldn't find any chalcedony in Ma Zheng's blood, because once the chalcedony is fused with the human body, it is no longer hidden in the blood, but hidden in each acupuncture point along the meridians, Every time the breath flows through these acupuncture points, it can contain a trace of chalcedony power.

The inner breath wandered around, unknowingly resonating with the second layer of mind in Ma Zheng's mind, even if Ma Zheng himself hadn't noticed it, the breath flowing from the dantian was not just the honesty of the governor's channel and Ren's heart. Instead, a trace of breath is continuously separated and enters his Chong, Dai, Yangwei, Yinwei, Yinyu, and Yangwei channels.

This is the so-called Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

If the eight extraordinary meridians are unblocked and the inner breath circulates endlessly, Ma Zheng's strength will not only be doubled, but he will also be able to stand firmly at the top of the third rate, or even among the second rate.

Fifteen hours was less than a day and a half. Because he didn't know the inside story, Ma Zheng didn't dare to waste any time, forcing himself to work hard without sleep.

He no longer remembers how many weeks he has practiced, the meridians in his body are already aching, and the dantian is so full that it feels like it is about to explode. If it wasn't because the time just came, maybe Ma Zheng would have been hurt hard to recover because of this recklessness. harm.

When he thought about it afterwards, he also thought he was ridiculous. How could he become so crazy because of fear?

Fortunately, Ma Daoming didn't notice these abnormalities. After he asked Ma Zheng to recite the heart method, he ordered Ma Zheng to burn the booklet in front of him.

"Come with me, it's time to hit the road."

Together with Ma Zheng, the other four children who participated in the Tianshui City Martial Arts Competition were all older than Ma Zheng.

The biggest one, Ma Sanwu, is already in his thirties this year. It is said that this is his last chance. If he fails to win in Jiazibao this year, he will have to join the army after the new year and go to the border to be an ordinary man. The soldiers in the army will die in the battle line in no time.

For ordinary Ma family children, whether it is entering the army or stepping into the rivers and lakes is not a good thing, these two places cannibalize people without spit out their bones, and they have no real skills, so it is best not to take risks.

But the population of the Ma family is increasing every year. If there is only an increase without consumption, I am afraid that the Ma family will not have only four Wubao by now, and ten or eight would not be too many.

From the perspective of the royal mentality, a family with an overly large population base will also increase its threat level.So apart from the direct descendants, the Ma family's children think that the best ending is to stay in various docks and be a teacher.

Ma Sanwu is old enough to be a teacher, but he is blunt in qualifications. After practicing martial arts for nearly 20 years, he is still at the third-rate level. However, his father is the elder of Fort B, so he can be so old in Fort A.

Except for Ma Sanwu, who was in his early thirties, the other three were all in their twenties, and their martial arts realms were all third-rate, with only slight differences.

On the contrary, Ma Zheng, the youngest, after absorbing chalcedony and practicing the second-level mental method in the past three days, his realm has faintly touched the third-rate ceiling, and even Ma Daoming didn't realize that his adopted son is only short of the third-rate ceiling. With just one kick at the door, you can step into the second-rate realm.

Of course, as long as he does not enter the second-tier, Ma Zheng still meets the criteria for participating in the martial arts competition. In fact, in the martial arts competitions held in the four Wubao every year, many of them are in Ma Zheng's situation, and some of his children even break through during the competition. , which is not considered a violation.

Because of this, contestants like Ma Sanwu who are firmly in the third-rate realm, not to mention finishing a goal, may not be able to break through even after three to five years of hard work, are the least pressured.

Being able to participate in the martial arts competition is enough for them to be promoted to a higher level. If they really meet that kind of quasi-second-rate opponents at the martial arts competition, the worst thing is to admit defeat. Because of the gap in realm, they will not be ridiculed by others. The performance at the Jiazibao martial arts meeting was the same.

From Jiazi Castle to Tianshui City, it takes two days to ride the carriage in the castle. In addition to the five children, there is also an elder and two teachers on the road. Of course, the owner of the castle, Ma Daoming, must go, after all, the Martial Arts Conference It is also an annual grand gathering within the Ma family.

Therefore, after Ma Zheng set off, he found out that for this annual grand gathering, there were as many as fifteen carriages dispatched from Fort Jia, almost all of the carriages were dispatched, except for the most luxurious carriage Ma Daoming was riding in. In addition, the carriage that the five contestants, Ma Zheng, looked like.

Perhaps it was because of his status as a patriarch. Ma Zheng was not like Ma Sanwu. Two contestants shared a carriage, and he himself rode in a carriage alone. The person sitting opposite him was an elder in the fort, surnamed Shan. reputation.

Like other aristocratic families, the Ma family generally does not accept people with foreign surnames, except for the position of elder.

If you want to become the elder of the Ma family, the first hard indicator is the realm of cultivation, which must be above innate.
