Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 158 Kidney Unlocked Successfully, Master Bone Marrow Talent!
Zhao Ya was overjoyed, and immediately opened the attribute panel.

Name: Zhao Ya.Age: 19 years old.Remaining lifespan: 288 (+233 days) years

Skills: Babu King Kong Longevity Kung Fu (Peak 44%)

Five Tiger Fist (Back to Basics 3%)

Blast Sword Technique (9% back to basics)

Light as a swallow (reaching the peak 99%)

Containing Breath (Peak 95%)

Smashing Monument Hand (Perfect 4899/5000)

Great Vajra Fist (Proficient 4111/5000)

Golden Body Jue (Perfect 4777/5000)

[Kidney unlock progress: 98%]

After these days of painstaking training, not only did the Five Tiger Boxing successfully break through the barriers and reached the realm of returning to the basics, but even other martial arts have also made great progress.

Especially the Vajra Fist, thanks to the breakthrough of the Five Tiger Fist, its proficiency has skyrocketed by more than 1000 points, and now there are less than 800 points of proficiency left to break through to the peak. enough.

In addition, the Golden Body Jue and the Big Throwing Stele Hand are also on the verge of breaking through.

Now Zhao Ya's skin is strong and tough, not inferior to those martial artists who specialize in horizontal kung fu.

The slamming stele hand is even more powerful.

Although the room was too small to use it with all its strength, Zhao Ya felt that if he allowed himself to do it with all his strength, few people in the same situation would be able to resist it.

Even if it was the ghost-faced giant ape from the four realms that he met before, if he met again now, Zhao Ya was confident that he would be able to defeat him only with the palm technique of the big throwing stele hand without using the sword technique.

Even if the sea of ​​blood stored in the liver burst out again, even that mandrill, Zhao Ya would dare to head-on.

Then there is this light-weight exercise that is as light as a swallow.

Although Zhao Ya also really wanted to break through to the Realm of Back to Basics, because in that case, his speed would definitely usher in another leap.

But after trying many times, he was always unable to get in, and he didn't even have the slightest understanding.

This made Zhao Ya feel that there should be some shortcomings in this lightness kung fu.

After all, the predecessor of this lightness exercise is the fusion of Qinggong Caoshangfei and Yanzi Sanshui, plus the guidance of Mr. Xia Feiying.

Now that he has reached the pinnacle level, he has obviously reached the limit of what these exercises can achieve. If he wants to be promoted again, he should have to find a new high-level lightness exercise.

This kind of thing can't be rushed, so Zhao Ya temporarily gave up the idea of ​​being promoted as light as a swallow.

The most urgent task now, apart from continuing to hone the Great Falling Monument Hand, Golden Body Art, and Great Vajra Fist, which is about to break through, is to completely unlock the kidney as soon as possible.

Even though the difference is only 2% now, the kidneys today are like a bottomless pit, countless qi and blood are poured into it, but there is not even a sound.

This is also the reason why Zhao Ya ate so many jerky worm eggs during this period of time, and as a result, the unlocking progress of the kidneys only increased by 4%.

But fortunately, there is still a lot of leftover jerky now, plus the eggs newly laid by the female worm, all these together, even if the 2% requires more blood, it is enough.

Zhao Ya is taking stock of the harvest during this period, and planning the key points of future cultivation.

Zui'er knocked lightly on the door, then whispered: "Brother Xiaoya, the stewed fish is ready, should we eat it now or wait a while?"

The voice is full of caution.

Zhao Ya couldn't help shaking his head and chuckling when he heard the words.

This little girl is really lovable sometimes.

Even without opening the door, Zhao Ya could guess Zui'er's current state, she must be standing by the door like a pissed off daughter-in-law, with a curious face but didn't dare to look at it, and didn't even dare to speak loudly, for fear of disturbing her again Practice by yourself.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya suddenly became narrow-minded, gently opened the rear window, jumped out in a flash, and then circled around to the front of the house after a few vertical leaps.

as predicted.

Zui'er stood by the door, waiting cautiously.

Zhao Ya approached quietly.

His original intention was to reach out and pat her on the shoulder, to scare her on purpose.

But after getting closer, I saw Zui'er's slender back and the faint fragrance coming from her body.

Zhao Ya suddenly couldn't bear it again.

When I think about it carefully, Zui'er has been with me for three years.

During the past three years, most of the time has been displaced, and the Guang family has changed several times.

But this girl didn't complain at all, even if she trekked in the mountains with her and ate dry food that was hard as a rock, she never frowned.

Such a lovely girl, if she is really frightened, then she will suffer a lot.

Thinking of this, Zhao Ya couldn't help coughing slightly.

Zui'er trembled slightly, and when she turned her head to see Zhao Ya standing behind her, she couldn't help showing surprise on her face.

"Hey, brother Xiaoya? Why did you suddenly appear outside?"

Zui'er obviously saw Zhao Ya enter the house and didn't come out, so he stood in front of the door and waited, but why did he run outside in a blink of an eye?

Zhao Ya secretly smiled when he heard this, but on the surface he put on a very serious look.

"Well, I occasionally felt something when I was practicing recently. I learned a new trick of piercing the wall. When I heard you shout just now, I came out through the wall."

"Wow, that's amazing!" Zui'er was amazed, without any doubt.

Zhao Ya laughed and reached out to pat Zui'er on the head.

"Amazing your size, do you really believe it?"

"Of course I believe it, because Brother Xiaoya said it." Zui'er took it for granted.

Zhao Ya had no choice but to say, "You, sometimes you're smart, but sometimes you're stupid."

"Hee hee, let's go, the fish is already cooked, hurry up and eat it while it's hot." Zui'er took Zhao Ya's hand and rushed to the kitchen.

Now Zhao Ya and Zui'er live in this small courtyard in the martial arts hall, which originally did not have a kitchen.

But Xu De knew that his younger brother and sister had special hobbies, so he asked the family servants to buy a complete set of cooking utensils and send them over.

Regarding this, Zhao Ya once said with a smile that no matter where Zui Er goes, there must be a kitchen by her side.

The two of them came to the kitchen, Zui'er lifted the lid of the pot, and a smell of fragrance wafted into his nostrils.

"How is it, is it very fragrant?" Zui'er said with a proud face.

"Well, it does smell good."

Zhao Ya also moved his index finger a little.

During this period of time, in order to free up more time for cultivation, Zhao Ya basically did not eat ordinary meals, relying on dried meat and insect eggs to supplement the nutrients he needed.

Although there is nothing wrong with doing this, no matter what people do, they still have to eat. If nothing else, if they only eat jerky, the birds will fade out of their mouths within three days.

Zhao Ya is like this now.

He was about to raise his chopsticks and try a piece of fish.

Just then, someone knocked on the door outside.

"Who is here at this time?" Zui'er was a little unhappy.

Zhao Ya smiled, put the chopsticks back, and said, "I'll go and have a look, maybe it's the brothers and sisters."

Speaking of which, Zhao Ya came to the gate of the courtyard, opened it and saw that it was not Shen Dao and the others standing outside the gate, but Gu Mingdong.

Miao Shaocheng's apprentice, Zhao Ya's nephew, has now become the backbone of the younger generation of Dingtai Martial Arts.

After seeing Zhao Ya, he bowed respectfully.

"Uncle Zhao."

"Well, what's the matter?" Zhao Ya asked.

"I was asked to bring you a letter outside."

"I asked you to bring a letter? Who is it?"

"I don't know him, but this person said that he and you are acquaintances and friends, and this letter is very important, so I must convey it to you, so I dare not neglect, and sent it to you as soon as possible."

As he spoke, Gu Mingdong took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya reached out to take it, and then Gu Mingdong left.

After he left, Zhao Ya tore open the envelope, and when he opened it, his expression changed slightly.

Because there were two pieces of paper inside, one of which was an invitation, and the person who signed it was none other than Wei Hongbin, the most powerful person in the entire county.

The other one was a letter, and the writer Zhao Ya did know him. He was the captain, Sun Yingkui, whom he met because of the cavalry when he first entered the city.

In the letter, Sun Yingkui made it clear that he wanted to meet Zhao Ya. As for this invitation, we will discuss it in person after we meet.

An address was left at the end of the letter, and it was still very close to the Dingtai Martial Arts Museum, in a teahouse dozens of steps away.

And Sun Yingkui said that if you still don't feel at ease, you can ask Zhao Ya to bring someone.

After reading the letter, Zhao Ya was silent in thought.

First of all, what did Sun Yingkui ask him for?
And we have to talk face to face.

Doesn't he know that the warriors in the county are already in the same situation as the cavalry they belong to?

Then there is this invitation.

It actually had his name written on it.

Although Wei Hongbin probably didn't write it himself, he must have known about it.

What is he trying to do?
Zhao Ya couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

Sun Yingkui made it clear in his letter that he came alone.

He dared to come to Ping'an Square alone, how could he avoid seeing him?
Thinking of this, Zhao Ya put the letter in his pocket, went back to the house and took out the things he needed, and turned around to go to the courtyard.

At this moment, Zui'er was standing at the door of the kitchen, looking at Zhao Ya aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Zhao Ya couldn't help smiling, "Simmer on a small fire, I'll go back as soon as I go."

"Yeah!" Zui'er nodded vigorously, and finally became happy.

Leaving the Martial Arts Hall, only fifty or so steps to the east is a teahouse.

The owner of the teahouse used to be a disciple of Dingtai Martial Arts, but because of his poor talent, he still achieved nothing in his 30s, so he left the martial arts hall and opened this teahouse.

The disciples of Dingtai Martial Arts like to come here to drink tea and chat with the owner of the restaurant when they are free.

Zhao Ya also followed Shen Dao.

As soon as he entered the door today, the boss recognized him, walked a few steps closer, and clasped his hands respectfully.

"Little master, you are here."

In terms of seniority, this man who is nearly forty years old really has to call Zhao Ya his master.

Zhao Ya felt awkward hearing it, but couldn't say anything, so he nodded and said, "Someone said he was waiting for me here."

"Oh, that guest is waiting for your old man. It's upstairs in the private room. Please go upstairs."

The restaurant owner personally led Zhao Ya up to the second floor, pointing to one of the private rooms.

"Little master, this is it."

"Okay, you go about your business."

"Okay, you can call me whenever you need anything."

The owner of the restaurant also saw that Zhao Ya came here for business, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions, and hurried downstairs.

Zhao Ya pushed the door open and walked into the private room.

really.

There was a person sitting on the chair facing the door, it was the Captain Sun Yingkui.

Today he is not wearing an official uniform, but a casual dress.

Seeing Zhao Ya come in, he stood up and cupped his hands with a smile on his face.

"Zhao Shaoxia, long time no see."

But Zhao Ya didn't pretend.

After all, what Wei Hongbin and his men have done in the county is not glorious at all.

Zhao Ya didn't even have the slightest favor for this.

If this Sun Yingkui was not a decent person, he wouldn't even come.

Facing Sun Yingkui's pleasantries at this moment, Zhao Ya just said coldly.

"Master Sun, we are not children to each other anymore, so if you have anything to say, just say it. You asked me out on purpose. What is the reason?"

Sun Yingkui also expected such a reaction from Zhao Ya, so instead of being angry, he smiled and said.

"Did Zhao Shaoxia see that invitation card?"

"I saw it."

"Very well, that is an invitation letter written by the leader of my family, just to invite Zhao Shaoxia to come over the house."

Speaking of this, Sun Yingkui showed a hint of excitement.

"Presumably Zhao Shaoxia is also aware of the current situation in the city. The noble warriors are rubbing against our cavalry. If things go on like this, big things will happen sooner or later."

Speaking of this, Sun Yingkui observed Zhao Ya's expression calmly, so he continued to speak.

"So I think that only when both parties cooperate openly and honestly can a disaster be eliminated invisible, and this requires capable and prestigious people from both sides to come forward to do it. On our side, Commander Wei personally came forward. On your side, with my strong recommendation, I decided to ask you to come forward."

"As long as you have a good talk with the commander of my family, I believe that the safety of the county will be just around the corner, and the people in the city will be grateful to you by then..."

"Stop it!" Zhao Ya directly interrupted Sun Yingkui, then looked at him and said with a half-smile.

"Having said so much, you actually mean that you want me to rely on you?"

"Uh... Actually, I can't say that. I won this opportunity with all my strength. You..." Sun Yingkui still wanted to explain.

But he didn't expect Zhao Ya to do something unexpected the next moment.

Zhao Ya took out the invitation card, squeezed it lightly, and crushed it to pieces.

Then Zhao Ya said indifferently: "Master Sun, I appreciate your kindness, but no matter whether you fought for it or recommended it, please forgive me, I can't agree to it."

Looking at the confetti all over the floor, Sun Yingkui was stunned.

He never imagined that Zhao Ya would crush such an important invitation.

You have to know that I have spent a lot of time and effort on this matter, and it took all my lips and tongues to understand Wei Hongbin.

Sun Yingkui was still very excited at the time, feeling that this matter had finally turned around.

It never occurred to Zhao Ya that he didn't give any face at all, and tore up a piece of his hard work in an understatement.

"Why?" Sun Yingkui looked at Zhao Ya in puzzlement.

"Why?" Zhao Ya sneered.

"Do you think that the conflict between the warriors in the city and you can be resolved with just one meeting? Don't be daydreaming, unless you can get your commander to lead his troops to evacuate the county right now, otherwise there is no way to mediate this conflict , it’s useless for anyone to come.”

Speaking of this, Zhao Ya softened his tone, and clasped his fist at Sun Yingkui.

"Master Sun, you are a rare good man among these cavalry, but you are not Wei Hongbin, and you can't control the overall situation, so you should give up."

"To put it bluntly, what you have done is useless. I believe that Wei Hongbin thinks the same way, and writing this invitation is just to perfuse you."

Sun Yingkui's face turned green and pale at Zhao Ya's words, but he didn't know how to refute.

Zhao Ya didn't say anything more, and cupped his fist at Sun Yingkui.

"Farewell."

After saying that, Zhao Ya turned around and left.

Looking at his back, Sun Yingkui opened his mouth several times, but didn't know what to say, so he could only let out a long sigh and sat back on the chair slumped.

At the same time, Zhao Ya went downstairs.

The restaurant owner was a little surprised because Zhao Ya's stay was too short.

It was only a cup of tea and came down.

"Little master, are we done talking?"

"En." Zhao Ya nodded, and strode away.

Looking at Zhao Ya's back, the owner of the restaurant was thoughtful.

He could see that the little master seemed a little unhappy.

Needless to say, this must have something to do with that guy in Yajian.

Oh shit.

Dare to make the little master angry, is this kid impatient?

The owner of the restaurant was furious, and immediately called a waiter.

"Come on, later you put together all the tea left over from drinking by these people in the hall, and then send it up to the kid on the second floor."

The guy couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard it.

"This... my boss, it's not appropriate for us to do this."

"If there's anything inappropriate, I say it's appropriate, so don't hurry up."

"It's you."

The man didn't dare to speak any more, so he quickly followed the boss's instructions.

The lobby on the first floor is full of scattered seats, and most of the tea drinkers here are local people, so they can't afford any good tea, it's just better than the leaves.

When these residual teas are put together, the color of the tea soup presents a strange sauce color.

Even so, the owner of the restaurant was still not satisfied, so he turned around and went to the kitchen to grab a handful of coarse salt and threw it in.

"Go ahead, just say I sent it."

"Yes!"

The guy went with a bitter face.

After entering the private room, Sun Yingkui was still sitting on the chair.

Seeing the buddy come in, he couldn't help but raised his head blankly.

"My lord, this is the free tea soup specially presented by our tea house. You can try it."

After finishing speaking, the buddy put the tea soup on the table, and then ran away as if fleeing.

joke.

If you don't leave at this time, won't you be scolded?
Sun Yingkui sighed.

Zhao Ya's refusal hit him hard.

He was confident that Zhao Ya would definitely agree, but he didn't expect such an ending.

He reached out to pick up the teapot, poured a cup without looking at it, and poured it directly into his mouth.

In the next moment, his face suddenly became like a bitter melon, and he spit out all the tea soup in one gulp.

After the entrance, it is bitter, astringent and salty.

Is this fucking tea or poison?
Sun Yingkui wanted to call the buddy over, but he thought it was a free gift, so he endured it again, dropped a piece of silver, and left in a hurry.

Looking at his back, the owner of the restaurant was very proud.

Let you offend the little master, you deserve it!

Of course Zhao Ya didn't know about these little episodes, at this time he had already returned home, eating fish with Zui'er beautifully.

The stewed fish is soft and delicious, and it is full of fragrance after eating, which is very comfortable.

And Zui'er was naturally very happy to see Zhao Ya's food was so delicious, and kept holding Zhao Ya's food before asking.

"Brother Xiaoya, what happened when you went out suddenly just now?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I just met someone."

Zhao Ya didn't hide anything, and told Zui'er briefly about seeing Sun Yingkui.

Zui'er actually didn't understand what was going on here, she just wanted to hear what Zhao Ya had to say.

After finishing speaking, seeing Zui'er staring at him with a pair of sparkling eyes, Zhao Ya couldn't help but smile, then stretched out his hand to stroke her hair.

"Okay, let's eat."

"Uh-huh."

After a meal, Zui'er cleaned up the dishes, while Zhao Ya went back to the house and continued to practice hard.

Sun Yingkui's visit today also reminded him.

Obviously, Wei Hongbin didn't forget himself.

Faced with this situation, the only way to ensure the safety of yourself and those around you is to constantly improve your strength.

Zhao Ya re-entered the almost crazy practice, especially the kidney unlocking progress. In just three days, he ate up all the remaining jerky.

Hard work pays off.

On this day, after Zhao Ya finished practicing the Vajra Longevity Kungfu, he suddenly felt a warm current rushing over his kidneys.

Then a line of familiar prompts appeared in front of my eyes.

[Successful unlocking of the kidneys, gaining the talent: main bone to produce marrow]
