Liao Zhai's Refining God

Chapter 36 Food
"This is impossible. The growth of blood depends entirely on the nourishment of food. If you don't eat well, your martial arts cultivation may not advance but retreat. What about the money I gave you?" Wang Lin said.

"My father said that the money should be reserved for me and my younger brother to marry a wife, and it should not be spent indiscriminately." Wang Daniu said.

Wang Lin was slightly taken aback, but the experience of her previous life allowed Wang Lin to understand his parents' thoughts. At this moment, Wang Lin deeply understood Wan Shanhe's phrase "poor literature and rich martial arts". It's a joke, the process of cultivation is to rely on food to nourish qi and blood, through refining and refining qi, smelting aura, and then relying on martial arts secrets to continuously break through the limits of the human body.

Wang Lin has a feeling that when the body reaches its limit, it will inevitably become extraordinary, and it should be the same as the road of cultivating immortality. But if it is like Wang Daniu, after the age of practicing martial arts, the blood will begin to decay, and the end will inevitably be annihilation of all living beings. Martial arts wizards are wasted.

But Wang Lin also knows that in Qingsang Village, neither the common people nor the tenant farmers are rich. There are thousands of mulberry trees growing on the mountain stretching five or six kilometers behind the village. They all belong to Wang Lin's family, and even if there are some other farmers, they are all assigned to Wang Xiuyuan's name. After all, the Wang family has Juren and Xiucai, so they can reduce or exempt taxes.

Wang Daniu's family belongs to tenants and has no land of their own. They work for Wang Lin's family every year, and they can barely fill their stomachs.During the slack time, I went to the mountains to cut firewood, went to the river to catch fish, and went to the mountains to hunt to supplement my family.

"Daniu, let's go to Qingsang Mountain!" Wang Lin thought for a moment.

"Okay!" Wang Daniu said obediently as always.

"Go to Aunt Cui for some salt and pepper seasoning, and bring your fish basket and hatchet back home," Wang Lin said.

"Master, it's hard to catch fish in mid-winter, so what are you doing with a fish basket?" Wang Daniu asked puzzled.

"Take it with you!" Wang Lin said.

"Yes, young master!" Wang Daniu nodded, turned around and rushed home.

The snow on Qingsang Mountain has not yet melted, but the snow on a rugged path leading to the mountain has basically melted. There are many people in the main village who go up the mountain to cut firewood, stepping on a muddy road.But according to the customs of Qingsang Village, no one will work on New Year's Day. It is rumored that if they work on this day, they will be poor for a year.

Wang Daniu came back soon, with a fish basket on his back and a hatchet in the fish basket.Wang Lin was walking at a very fast speed, her sleeves fluttered and her toes touched the clean bluestone beside the muddy road. Then her body flew up gently and flew forward quickly. People in Qingsang Village would be shocked when they saw it. In their eyes, Wang Lin is just a scholar with no strength to restrain a chicken, but now she is already a master of martial arts.

Wang Daniu had known for a long time that Wang Lin's martial arts were extraordinary. He looked at Wang Lin with a little envy, and knew that Wang Lin was testing him, so he tried his best to catch up with him, like a stupid cow running on a muddy road, with flying mud and great momentum.

The two quickly rushed to the Qingshui Lake. The surface of the Qingshui Lake was covered with a layer of solid ice, and only the ice melted at the interface with the mountain stream, exposing the gurgling water.

Running along the way, Wang Daniu was panting like a cow. Wang Lin observed it and couldn't help but feel emotional. The impact of food nutrition on martial arts cultivation is beyond imagination. Without the support of food essence and lack of energy and blood, it is difficult to make progress in martial arts .

For example, Wang Daniu followed him before, eating meat every day, and his blood was strong, but during the time he came back, he ate bran swallowed vegetables every day, and his blood was obviously lacking.According to his character, he would definitely not take the initiative to ask for meat, but with his family's situation, he must not be able to eat enough. Enduring hunger silently will inevitably lead to a decline in blood energy and a decline in martial arts cultivation.

Although Wang Lin's family is not very rich, not as rich as Chen Biao, Zhang Linyu, and Gao Shang in Guobei County, but at least there is meat for every meal, white flour and rice can keep Wang Lin's blood full.

"Boom!" Wang Lin stepped on the solid ice lightly, and after walking more than ten meters from the lake, she punched the ice suddenly. When she was still some distance away from the ice, the Gang Qi burst out, blasting the ice instantly. opened, revealing a large hole.Wang Lin then punched three times in a row, completely shattering the ice, revealing a body of water.

"Hmm!" At this moment, Wang Daniu was already stunned. After not seeing him for a short time, Wang Lin's cultivation base had stepped into the realm of a small master, and she could release her true energy, which made Wang Daniu extremely envious and admirable.

"Daniu, tie the fish basket with a rope and hang it underwater. Let's catch a herring and roast it!" Wang Lin greeted Wang Daniu.

"Master, if I knew you were going to catch fish, I would have brought some bait here in advance. Now there is no bait, how can fish get into the fishing basket; besides, herring is cunning and difficult to catch. In our village, only the lame grandpa can catch it, but Even if you are very lucky, you can only catch a few in autumn. This fish is delicate and delicious, and it is famous even in Guobei County. It is said to be better than Qingjiang carp. Beixian sold it for ten Wen.

I just smelled the smell of this fish from a distance. The widow in our alley made it several times. The scent wafted so that the whole alley was fragrant. I heard those women in the village said that it was all lameness. Grandpa secretly sent it to her at night.hey-hey. "Wang Daniu said with a low laugh.

Wang Lin smiled slightly, feeling a little bitter in her heart. If Wang Daniu went on like this, he would be no different from those villagers who worked all year round after many years. After marrying a daughter-in-law and having two or three children, he would be like this for the rest of his life.Those martial arts foundations learned by myself will also be completely obliterated in the torment of life.This also reminded Wang Lin of her previous life.

"According to what I said, put down the fish basket!" Wang Lin said to Wang Daniu without much explanation.

"Yes!" Wang Daniu did not dare to disobey Wang Lin, and tied the fish basket with a rope and put it into the water behind the broken ice.

"Daniu, go and chop some dry firewood!" Wang Lin ordered, walked to the cliff by the lake, and sat cross-legged on a dry boulder.Before long, Wang Daniu came here carrying a bundle of dry firewood. Wang Lin took out a fire twig from her sleeve and lit the dry firewood.

"Well, go and take out the fish basket, let's grill the fish!" Wang Lin ordered.

"Yes!" Seeing Wang Lin's casual order, Wang Daniu did not dare to disobey, but he still pulled up the rope along the ice hole suspiciously.

"Hmm!" When the fish basket was pulled out of the water, Wang Daniu couldn't believe his eyes. There were two lively herrings in the fish basket, their bodies were as graceful as shuttles, and their backs seemed to be glazed with blue light. Haha, the key is that one of them is about a foot long, at least it weighs four or five catties, and two of them almost fill up the entire fish basket. I really don't know how they got into it.

Wang Daniu was full of doubts. Wang Daniu, who had always thought he knew everything about Wang Lin, was at a loss. For the first time, he felt that his young master was mysterious and powerful.
