Martial Arts Immortal.

Chapter 148 Reward
……

"This time it was almost the end..."

Lin Zheyu was still frightened.

If the strong man from the Li family hadn't taken action in time, I might have fallen into the hands of the terrifying strong man just now.

"That strong man from the Tang family is a bit weird. He doesn't have any great physical skills, but his speed is astonishingly fast."

"The same thing happened with his knife. He came closer without making any sound. It was extremely weird."

Lin Zheyu looked at the hideous wound on his arm and thought to himself.

The wound on his arm had scabbed over, but it was still painful.A steady stream of energy and blood poured in, restoring the injuries on his arms.

The bones of his arm were severely injured, and Lin Zheyu felt like he was almost split into two pieces.

His current physical defense is extremely powerful, but while wearing black and silver gloves, he was almost split into two pieces by the opponent's knife.

If he hadn't worn the black and silver gloves, his hand would have been completely useless.

That knife gave him an extremely weird feeling.

"Is it the influence of 'Yi', or is it that the person has entered Huajin?"

Lin Zheyu murmured in a low voice.

Ask Li Mengqi about this when you have time. She should know the warrior from the Tang family.

Time passed slowly.

About two hours later.

The door was knocked.

"Master Yu, my servant has brought you some decoction and liquid medicine."

Outside the house, Yalan's clear voice sounded like a lark.

"Come in."

Lin Zheyu opened his eyes and said lightly.

The door opened, and the strong aroma of medicine hit my nostrils.

It was not the blood-reinforcing and bone-strengthening soup that Lin Zheyu usually used, but it could be vaguely judged by the aroma of the medicine that the medicinal effect of this medicine should not be weak.

"Sir, this is the medicinal soup you asked for." Yalan put the medicinal soup on the table and said.

"Thank you" Lin Zheyu thanked.

I picked up the medicinal soup and smelled it carefully. There was nothing wrong with the taste.

To be on the safe side, he still tested the medicinal soup according to the method in the Poison Code, and only drank it after confirming that there was no problem.

When the medicinal soup enters the abdomen, the effect is very good, and a warm current spreads out.

With Lin Zheyu's current physical strength, he could feel the slightest bit of heat.

"What a powerful medicine!"

"This medicinal soup is probably for use by Marrow Training Realm warriors. The medicine is very powerful. It would be difficult for ordinary Qi and Blood Realm warriors to withstand the ferocious power of the medicine inside."

Lin Zheyu said secretly.

After taking the medicinal soup into his abdomen, the qi and blood in his body condensed much faster, and the medicinal effect was six to seven times stronger than when he took the Yixue Zhuanggu Decoction.

"Master Yu, please come over with me and your servant, go to another room and take a medicinal bath."

"The young lady said that your body is stained with the Tang family's soul-chasing fragrance."

"After being exposed to this kind of fragrance, it will not dissipate for a long time. Only special black insects can smell it, and ordinary people cannot smell it."

"If you want to get rid of the smell of soul-chasing incense, it will be a bit troublesome without the Tang family's unique medicinal powder."

"It needs to be soaked in a special liquid, once in the morning and once in the evening, and it can be removed in two days."

After drinking the medicinal soup, Yalan continued.

"Well, please help me thank your young lady for being considerate."

Lin Zheyu nodded and said with a smile.

The smell of soul-chasing fragrance on his body needs to be removed as soon as possible, otherwise he will be targeted by the Tang family as soon as he leaves the Li family's stronghold.

By then, no matter how much he changes his appearance, there will be nothing he can do.

After following Yalan out of the wooden house, Lin Zheyu didn't see many children of the Li family.

Listening to Yalan's explanation, most of them went to climb Tiandao Peak to understand the meaning of the sword.

When I came to another room, there was a huge wooden barrel inside. The barrel was filled with steaming purple-black liquid.

The smell is a bit fishy and very pungent.

……

……

Time flies, and two days have passed.

For two days, Lin Zheyu stayed in the Li family's stronghold and never went out.

After Li Mengqi arrived at the Li family's stronghold, she was never seen again. Yalan said that she had returned to Wuling City.

As for Li Guoyao, I could meet him occasionally.

However, most of the other people smiled and nodded at him, chatting politely and without any nourishment, and seemed to have no intention of having a deep friendship.

Lin Zheyu didn't have any other ideas about this.

As a warrior with terrifying strength, Li Guoyao showed great respect for him by being able to show his kind side and being willing to talk to him about useless things.

If he were not Li Mengqi's savior, he probably wouldn't even say hello when they meet.

In two days, Lin Zheyu's energy and energy recovered to [-]% to [-]%.

However, the injury on the arm was a bit slow to recover because it damaged the bone.

The appearance seems to have almost recovered, but it is estimated that it will take more than a month to fully recover.

If you use source power, you can completely recover in a few breaths.

Unfortunately, the Fierce Flame Burning Blood Powder on him has long been used up, so it is not easy to bother the Li family to buy it for him here.

There is the scent of soul-chasing fragrance on my body, but I can't leave it.

Therefore, he could only let his arm recover slowly.

After getting rid of the scent of the soul-chasing incense on his body, he left the Li family stronghold and went to Wuling City to buy Fierce Flame Burning Blood Powder, and then used his source power to increase his recovery.

For two days.

He has been practicing the Turtle Breathing Dharma with great concentration.

As the number of Qi and blood qualitative changes increases, the energy contained in Qi and blood becomes more and more powerful. Lin Zheyu feels that the effect of Turtle Breath Dafa on concealing Qi and blood is getting worse and worse.

Now there is no way to hide the energy and blood perfectly like before.

Inadvertently, a little blood will leak out.

When the Qi and blood quality changes nine times and enters the Qi and blood dragon realm, the effect of concealing the Qi and blood will probably be even worse.

But this is easy to solve.

The Turtle Breathing Technique was advanced to perfection very early. At that time, the Qi and blood were not so powerful, so the concealment effect was good.

Now that the energy contained in the qi and blood has skyrocketed, the control gained through practicing the Turtle Breathing Technique before is no longer enough.

It is difficult to completely lock the surge of qi and blood energy in the blood.

Therefore, Qi and blood will escape.

After the strength is improved to the Nine Changes of Qi and Blood, and one or two units of source power are spent to improve the Turtle Breathing Technique, there will probably be no problem.

Night falls.

Several oil lamps were burning in the wooden house, illuminating the wooden house brightly.

Lin Zheyu stood up from the medicinal bath barrel and heard the sound of rushing water.

"I finally got rid of the soul-chasing scent on my body. When fighting in the future, I have to be careful to prevent being hit by the opponent's similar powder."

Lin Zheyu said secretly.

Because of this, it caused so much trouble.

"Master Yu, Master Meng Xi invites you."

After walking out of the wooden house, Yalan had been waiting for a long time. When she saw Lin Zheyu coming out, she said respectfully.

"Meng Xi?"

"Is he Miss Mengqi's younger brother or older brother?" Lin Zheyu asked curiously.

"Master Meng Xi is Miss Mengqi's biological brother."

"The young master heard that the young master saved Miss Mengqi's life, so he came here to see you and thank you in person," Yalan said.

"Well, please lead the way."

Lin Zheyu nodded and followed Yalan through the rows of wooden houses and came to the large wooden house in the center.

This is a large square, surrounded by blazing torches, and the square is as bright as day.

In the square, a shirtless young man was holding a long sword and practicing his sword skills tirelessly.

His swordsmanship is different from Li Mengqi's. His sword moves are full of killing intent, fast, accurate and ruthless, with almost no unnecessary feints.

Sensing Lin Zheyu's arrival, Li Mengxi stopped practicing.

He looked Lin Zheyu up and down, as if he wanted to see through him.

"You go down first."

Li Mengxi waved his hand and asked Yalan to leave first.

"Thank you, Mr. Yu, for saving my sister's life."

"If Young Master Yu encounters any trouble in the future, with this token, within a reasonable range, Li can promise you something."

Li Mengxi took out a copper-colored talisman and handed it over.

There are exquisite patterns carved around the talisman, with the word "Li" on one side and a terrifying beast carved on the other side.

"There is also this bank note. Please accept it, Mr. Yu."

Li Mengxi took out a banknote from his arms again.

This kind of banknote was officially issued by the Wei Dynasty, and each one was worth 10 taels of silver.

Although banknotes are easy to carry, they are expensive to hold.

There is a one-tenth handling fee for converting banknotes into silver coins.

Moreover, the banknotes were of large amounts, which ordinary people could not use at all, and they were not circulated among the people.

If you want to spend it, you need to go to a designated place and exchange it for silver before you can use it.

Therefore, Lin Zheyu never used it.The most amount of silver he owned before was around 1 taels.

1 taels of silver, after being converted into gold, are not large in size and are very convenient to carry. There is no need to use silver notes.

"No way, it's too expensive."

Lin Zheyu looked at the banknote and the talisman in his hand, and was slightly surprised. He did not expect that the reward given by the other party was so generous.

"Young master Yu, you don't have to be polite. My sister's life is much more valuable than this little silver and amulet."

Li Mengxi shook his head and said in a tone that could not be refused.

"Well, thank you very much, Mr. Meng Xi." Lin Zheyu bowed his hands and thanked him.

It seems that I have to do more good deeds in the future, and if I save the right people, I will be rewarded a lot.

"By the way, Yu Ban must not be Young Master Yu's real name, right?"

Li Mengxi smiled and said: "I hope Brother Yu won't be offended. After all, it concerns my sister, so I checked Brother Yu's details."

In the past two days, they sent people to check Lin Zheyu's details and found out his identity as Zhao Hao.

At the same time, they also sent out suspicions that the other party might be with the group of men in black.

"This is not a shady matter. Yu Ban is indeed just a pseudonym for me."

"My heart is sinister and my strength is mediocre. I am worried about provoking my enemies, so I can only travel around the world under a pseudonym."

Lin Zheyu smiled and said.

"I wonder if I know Brother Yu's real name?" Li Mengxi asked curiously.

"That's what Mr. Meng Xi calls a certain Zhao Hao," Lin Zheyu said.

Li Mengxi was speechless when he heard this. As soon as he heard the name, he knew that it was also a pseudonym.

But then, he laughed: "Then let's call him Brother Zhao."

"Brother Zhao is pretty good, but I don't know where he comes from and how old he is?"

Li Mengxi asked.

From Li Mengqi's words, he had a general understanding of Lin Zheyu's strength. He knew that this person's light kung fu skills were extremely amazing, and his defense was extremely powerful.

Tang Weizhong of the Tang family couldn't do anything to him even if he used secret methods.

If a strong man of this level could be recruited, it would be of great use.

However, if you want to recruit the other party, you need to know the details of the other party.

Otherwise, if a hostile force is recruited, the problem will be serious.

"I come from a small village outside Beirong City in the North. I got stuck in a bottleneck due to my martial arts. I traveled around looking for opportunities to break through."

"As for age, I am already in my fifties. This appearance is just a disguise. My identity as Zhao Hao is my true appearance."

Lin Zheyu smiled and said.

He deliberately made his age older so that it would not stand out too much.

"I see."

Li Mengxi said with a smile.

He knew Lin Zheyu was lying.

He believed that Lin Zheyu also knew that he knew that he had lied.

However, the two of them still tacitly agreed not to expose this lie.

Since the other party doesn't want to say it, there's no need to force it.

No matter what, Zhao Hao was also his sister's savior. As long as the other party didn't do anything detrimental to the Li family, there was no need to get to the bottom of it.

"Brother Zhao must make good use of this opportunity at Tiandao Peak."

"If you can gain insights from the sword's intention, it will be of great help to Brother Zhao in advancing to the level of energy transformation."

Li Mengxi continued.

He recognized Lin Zheyu as a marrow training warrior.

The strength and physique shown by Lin Zheyu are in line with the scope of the marrow training realm.

In addition, he used the Turtle Breath Technique to hide his aura. Without careful inspection, it would be difficult to find out that he was only at the Qi and Blood level.

"Zhao came to Wuling City this time just for the sword intention on Tiandao Peak."

"It's a pity that the domesticated black raccoon caused a lot of trouble, so I had to go into the mountains to avoid trouble."

Lin Zheyu sighed helplessly.

As soon as they arrived in the Central Plains, they provoked the Pei family in Ruyang City, and now there is another Tang family.

"Mo Li has great potential. If he grows up, his strength will be comparable to that of a warrior at the peak of the Marrow Training Realm."

"The most important thing is that its intelligence is comparable to humans and it can be domesticated as a pet."

"Many aristocratic families like to tame black foxes. When they grow up, they are good helpers in caring for their homes and homes."

"However, it is difficult for this ferocious beast to give birth. It is almost impossible for domesticated black rivets to give birth to the next generation, so black raccoon dogs are extremely rare."

"Every time one appears, it sells for a very high price."

"If Brother Zhao needs it, I can help you get Mo Li's pass so that you can tame that Mo Li in the city."

Li Mengxi said.

He made an invitation gesture and led Lin Zheyu to the bonfire.

There, the maid has prepared sumptuous food and drinks.

"No need, now that we have offended the Tang family and the Pei family of Ruyang City, bringing that black raccoon with you is too conspicuous and will only increase trouble."

Lin Zheyu shook his head and said, "Thank you very much, Master Meng Xi for your kindness."

"Come on, Mr. Li toasts you."

Li Mengxi toasted Lin Zheyu with a glass of wine and suggested with a smile: "Brother Zhao is so strong, I wonder if he plans to join a certain force."

"If you don't dislike him, the Li family can be the backer behind Brother Zhao. Then the Tang family and the Pei family will not dare to mess around."

"I don't have any plans for now."

"I'm used to being idle. I like to wander around and live an unrestrained life."

"Thank you, Mr. Meng Xi. Zhao will give you a toast."

Lin Zheyu rejected Li Mengxi's solicitation and toasted to him with a smile.

It was impossible for a family like the Li family to recruit an ignorant warrior, even if he was Li Mengqi's savior.

The Li family has not yet reached the point of recruiting warriors with unknown origins.

Joining the Li family is the same as joining other sects. You need to verify your identity and make sure there is no disguise.

As long as Lin Zheyu takes a test, he will be exposed.

Not only will Zhao Hao's vest be exposed, but his true identity will be completely exposed.

He used his original identity to live in Wuling City for a period of time and became friends with Wang Jing.

Through Wang Jing's invitation letter, I obtained the remaining copy of Qianyuan Gong at the Li family auction.

However, although his appearance and name were the same as before, he had disguised his origin and forged it into a ruined village in the North.

This place is extremely far away from Bafang City, and under normal circumstances, the identity will not be revealed.

But if the original appearance is exposed here, it will be completely exposed.

Zhao Hao's identity was connected with his original identity, and when he sent people to Bafang City to investigate, he was completely exposed.

A martial artist who has practiced martial arts for less than three years is comparable to a martial artist in the marrow training realm.

He will probably be caught directly by the Li family and locked up for study.

"Everyone has his or her own ambitions. It is the pursuit of many people to roam freely and live an unfettered life."

"Come on, Li will give Brother Zhao another drink!"

Li Mengxi laughed and did not continue to recruit Lin Zheyu.

Since there's no way to recruit someone, it's not bad to make a friend.

Having a friend with amazing Qinggong skills will be a lot easier when you encounter some troubles in the future.

After three rounds of drinking, the two of them got to know each other a lot better.

Li Mengxi is different from his sister. He is very talkative, talking about interesting things in the family.

"I wonder if Brother Zhao has any troubles that he can't solve."

"If you can, that talisman card can be used as an opportunity for someone to help you solve the problem."

Li Mengxi asked suddenly with a smile.

"Can anything be done?" Lin Zheyu asked curiously.

"It requires everything Li can do." Li Mengxi said.

He was also worried that Lin Zheyu's demands were too excessive, so he deliberately added appropriate and within his capabilities constraints.

As for what is appropriate and what is within his ability, it depends on him.

"I wonder if I can change to a real skill?" Lin Zheyu asked.

Only skills that contain true intentions and can be cultivated to the master level can be called true skills.

The skills that Lin Zheyu learned could only be practiced up to the Qi and Blood realm. As for the cultivation beyond the Qi and Blood realm, he didn't know much about it.

If he could have a real skill, he wouldn't have to rush to join a certain sect.

"Well……"

"If you have real skills, it's not impossible."

Li Mengxi was stunned for a moment, considered it, and said slowly.

True skills are also divided into strong and weak ones. Some powerful true skills are basically priceless and cannot be bought with any amount of silver.

However, some of the less powerful skills can be purchased with only tens of thousands of taels of silver.

The reason why he thought about it for a long time was because he was considering what kind of real skill he should give Lin Zheyu.

The Li family runs an auction and collects a lot of real skills with different values.

If the offer was short and the value was less than 10 taels of silver, it would be an insult to the conditions he promised.

Li Mengxi believed that the condition he agreed to was much more valuable than the other reward of 10 taels of silver.

"I wonder what techniques Brother Zhao is good at and what kind of 'moment' he has mastered?"

Li Mengxi pondered for a moment and asked.
