We are engaged in scientific research in the ancient martial arts world

Ye Niu drank a few more cups of Jade Bingshao and said, "Since you two are so dedicated to practice, are you two willing to become my teacher?" As soon as these words came out, Li Yu and Wang Qingyang immediately showed excitement. , they not only think about it, they simply want to practice day and night! In this world where force is paramount, being able to practice cultivation is the highest thing!

At this moment, Li Yu immediately picked up a pot of jade ice and filled his and Wang Qingyang's cups. Then the two immediately walked to Ye Niu and knelt down on one knee. Disciple Li Yu and disciple Wang Qingyang paid homage to the master!

Ye Niu looked at the two people, nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and said to them, "Get up, let's eat food first."

When the two got up and sat down again to eat, Ye Niu walked out of the private room. Li Yu and Wang Qingyang looked at Aunt Mei with confused expressions, "Aunt Mei, where is my master? He hasn't eaten any of the dishes. , why are you leaving?" Aunt Mei smiled faintly at the two of them and said, "Your master, go prepare the apprenticeship ceremony for you." The two heard Aunt Mei's words. There was no reaction for a moment. "I didn't expect that the master would prepare an apprenticeship ceremony for us?" "It seems that we have found a good master."

Another half hour passed before Ye Niu returned to the private room. At this time, the food on the table was cold. Aunt Mei thoughtfully called the waiter and asked the waiter to bring the dishes to heat up. When the dishes were reheated and served, everyone started eating seriously again.

It was the first time for Li and Wang to have a meal in this different world. It felt like the first time they went to the countryside to eat. Although Zuixianglou is one of the best restaurants in Donglan County, for these two people, it is a bit unattractive. Although the braised pork elbow is soft and rotten, it is pork after all. The food culture of this world is still there. Staying at the level of ancient China, pigs have not been castrated, so they have a very strong smell. Last time in my yard, the elbows bought by Aunt Mei also had the same smell, and the roasting The chicken is really cooked over fire, and then some coarse salt is applied to the chicken. There is no process of marinating and then roasting, nor is it coated with honey. The only delicious thing is the braised fish. It is stewed with bean paste, water and rice wine. The fish meat is tender and soft. Quite a juice sucker. But in this world, being able to eat these delicacies is already considered a superior person's existence, so the two of them naturally have no objection to it. But both of them decided silently in their hearts. We must take time to transform the food culture here in the future.

After drinking and eating, the four of them left Zuixianglou slowly and contentedly. Li Yu saw the master taking out dozens of silver coins when he was paying the bill, and silently made a note of it in his mind. Although they had been here for a year, , but does not have any understanding of the currency system of Cangfeng Continent. Therefore, you must plan carefully and find time to understand the monetary system here. Just like this, the four of them walked slowly towards the outer city. After a while, he returned to the blacksmith shop.

After returning to the blacksmith shop, Ye Niu asked Aunt Mei to bring two large wooden barrels and placed them on the net in the yard. Then he ordered Li and Wang to go to the woodshed to get some dry firewood and put it under the big vat next to the kitchen. Then Ye Niu lit the firewood under the two large vats. After more than half an hour, the water in the two vats was boiled. Ye Niu then ordered the two of them to get buckets to put the boiled water into the big wooden bucket in the yard. After working for a while. The two wooden barrels in the yard were filled with boiling water. Ye Niu reached into the barrels and felt that the temperature was about the same, so he returned to the blacksmith shop. After a while, he saw Ye Niu holding Two white ceramic bottles returned to the yard. After returning to the yard, Ye Niu opened the wax seals on the two white jade porcelain bottles in his hands, and then poured them into the two wooden barrels. I saw light red liquid slowly flowing out of the porcelain bottle, and after a while. The water in the barrel also turned into a light red color.

Li Yu and Wang Qingyang looked at the master's operation and said, "Master, what is this?" Ye Niu replied, "You two quickly take off your clothes and soak in this bucket. After soaking in, I will talk to you again." Tell me in detail." After hearing the master's instructions, the two of them did not hesitate. They went back to the house, took off their clothes, walked out of the yard, and each soaked in the big wooden barrel. "Ouch, it's so hot, Master!" "I feel it too, it's so hot. I feel like my skin is going to blister from the heat." Ye Niu looked at the two of them, "Shut up, you have to endure it no matter how hot it is. Give it to me." Get down and soak!" When the two heard the master's scolding, they didn't dare to say anything. They gritted their teeth and soaked their whole bodies in the bucket of hot water.

Seeing both of them obediently soaking in the bucket, Ye Niu said, "This is the apprenticeship ceremony that I give you. Your meridians are as thin as threads and are too fragile. Now I will use secret medicine to treat them." You use medicine to nourish your meridians. This is a long-term process. The medicine will enter your body through your skin, and then enter your eight extraordinary meridians. In this process, the medicine will continue to impact your small meridians. , every impact will increase the endurance of your fragile meridians. If this continues for a long time, your meridians as small as threads will gradually expand and transform into ones that can withstand the flow of spiritual energy. This whole process will be very painful. It will be like millions of knives cutting your body, like millions of reptiles biting your whole body. This will last for 3 years. The master will prepare it for you every three days. And after taking the medicinal bath, The next day, your workload needs to be doubled. If you can't even bear this little pain, then don't mention any more cultivation." Having said this, Ye Niu didn't say any more, but walked back to him from the yard. own room. Then a voice came from Ye Niu's room, "Stay for an hour. Don't come out for less than an hour."

When Li Yu and Wang Qingyang heard this, they both had a look of pain on their faces. (This is not a cut. Now my whole body is stinging and I feel numb. Is it true that spiritual practice is so hardcore...)

Just like that, Li Yu slowly closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and tried his best to control himself and endure it. But Fatty Wang next to him didn't have that much endurance, and now the whole yard was echoing with Fatty's miserable howl like he was killing a pig...

In fact, almost no one in the entire cultivation world uses this method of using medicine to cleanse the pulse, because it is difficult to find this kind of herb that can be used to "expand the pulse" in the entire Cangfeng Continent. Because there was a time when cultivators were rampant, many cultivators used this secret recipe to improve their body's meridians, allowing their own meridians to gain wider space, thus strengthening the upper limit of the circulation of their own spiritual energy. Over time, the medicinal materials required for this secret recipe for expanding pulses were exhausted by these monks. It is already very difficult to find the medicinal materials in this formula, and even if you can find one soon, it will become very inconvenient because of the lack of the other several. Moreover, the entire process of pulse expansion varies according to individual constitution, and the time required may vary. The entire process can take as short as one and a half years, or as long as several years. There are really not that many medicinal materials that people can spend so much on. . Therefore, after this secret medicine became extinct, Ye Niu was able to provide two people with double three-year doses, which can be said to be quite attentive. This apprenticeship ceremony can be said to be as grand as heaven. With this secret recipe, if you soak it for three years, there is a certain chance that even broken veins, let alone thin veins, will grow back.

At this time, Li Yu and Wang Qingyang did not know this. All they know is this bone-crushing pain, and they will persist for another three years. At this time, Li Yu had only one thought in his mind (Three years! Three years! Do you know how I spent these three years??) Of course, this was just what he was thinking.

The night passed slowly with the two people moaning in pain. After the first "pulse expansion", even after the two left the barrel and returned to the room to rest, they could still feel the penetration throughout their bodies. All kinds of excruciating pain. So even if he lay down to rest, the fat man's moans still didn't stop.

Early the next morning, Aunt Mei woke the two of them up and asked them to have breakfast in the small courtyard. Aunt Mei told the two of them some things about the "pulse expansion" secret medicine. There was a hint of guilt. At the same time, he felt flattered that the master had prepared such a precious gift for the two of them. Such a rare medicinal material allowed the two of them to brew it for three years. Thinking of this, Fatty Wang decided from the bottom of his heart that no matter how painful or uncomfortable it was, he had to endure it! In this way, the two began to work twice as hard today. At first, both of them endured the pain and slowly adapted to it. But once they got into working mode, the two of them gradually got used to it. Over the next few months, the two gradually adjusted themselves to this new lifestyle amid such intense work.

And Ye Niu also smelted steel for the first time through the suggestions put forward by his two apprentices. This new type of material for this world, steel, is truly much stronger than the original pure iron. Since he had initially mastered the technology of smelting steel, Ye Niu also gradually adjusted the ratio of various minerals in the steel under the guidance of his two apprentices. In order to achieve an optimal balance. There is no way, this is not modern, there are no measuring instruments, there is no way to measure the content of various elements in steel. It can only be adjusted by constantly adjusting the quantity and weight of the added ore during each smelting.

The next few months passed with constant debugging and re-smelting. Unknowingly, another half year has passed. In just the past six months, Li Yu and Wang Qingyang have accomplished two major things. First, with the unremitting efforts of the two and their masters, the proportion of steel has been initially determined. All that is left is to fine-tune it and put it into normal operation. Forged by smelting. It can be said that the iron products produced here in Houye Niu are the only and strongest iron products in the entire Cangfeng Continent! The second thing is that the two of them disliked the wine here as too spicy. So under the pressure of the two of them, Aunt Mei agreed to help the two of them find some raw materials for brewing according to their requirements. The two of them then developed the formula and handed it over to Aunt Mei for brewing. It can be considered that the two of them did a big job for Aunt Mei. The two of them don’t have many high-end skills, they just use traditional distillation and fermentation methods. The key point provided by the two is the production process of jiu koji. It is divided into making koji with white wine and making koji with sweet wine. After Aunt Mei's search, the materials they needed were finally gathered. The two are preparing to brew high-strength liquor and sorghum liquor using sorghum as the base material. At the same time, in the process of brewing high-strength liquor, a part of the liqueur was extracted and used separately, and osmanthus was added. Used to brew sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed rice.

In this way, these two people have given Master Ye Niu and Aunt Mei a big surprise with these two major events in the past six months.

More than two days have passed, and the weather here has also entered the hot summer. It has been nearly a year and eight months since the two of them came to this blacksmith shop. On this day, the wine that Aunt Mei had brewed with Li Yu and Wang Qingyang in the past few months was ready to be opened. They don't brew much, only three varieties, each with two big jars. Li Yu and Fatty Wang each took a small wine pot, and then opened the wax seal on the large wine jar. Each of the three varieties was filled with a pot, and then placed on the stone table in the yard. Then the two men went to call their master Ye Niu to come over for dinner. And Aunt Mei knew that the wine brewed today was ready to be opened, so she specially added two dishes, and the family of four sat down to eat. Then Aunt Mei said: "Brother Niu, try it. These three wines were researched by these two guys and taught me how to brew them step by step." Ye Niu heard Aunt Mei's words and looked at the person sitting on the table. The two apprentices opposite said, "Since you brewed it with your heart, I must try it!" Hearing the master's words, Li Yu and Wang Qingyang looked at each other, and both of them showed lewd smiles!

At this time, Ye Niu poured the first type of high-strength liquor into the bowl, and then drank it into his throat. Suddenly, a blush appeared on the whole person's face. "What a strong wine!" "What's the name of this wine?" At this time, Li Yu glanced at the master, "This wine is called Immortal Drunkenness. It is not only strong, but also has great stamina, so master, don't be greedy. This wine is very easy to intoxicate." ." After listening to Li Yu's words, Ye Niu also nodded, "Well, good wine, such an immortal drunk!" Fatty Wang was thinking at the moment, "This thing is much stronger than the rice wine in that restaurant, those rice wines are the best." 20 degrees, this liquor is a real 50 degrees." Ye Niu then tried sorghum wine and osmanthus fermented wine, and commented on these drinks one by one. Looking at Ye Niu's smile, the three of them knew that he was very satisfied with the drinks.

At this time, Aunt Mei also poured a rare glass of sweet-scented osmanthus wine and took a sip. "When this wine was brewed, I felt that the floral aroma was very pleasant. I didn't expect that after the wine was brewed, the floral aroma still did not disappear. It is hidden deep in the wine and leaves a fragrant aroma on your lips and teeth after one sip. This wine is really good."

Hearing Aunt Mei's comment, both of them showed a proud smile (Humph! Where are we? We brothers still have a lot of tricks to do, such as peach blossom brewing, whiskey, malt brewing, and beer. We brothers are really serious about playing this thing, so we can’t bring any fun to Blue Wind Continent!)

In this way, the four of them spent the night talking and laughing. By this time, after the two of them had the finished products of the three drinks, they were ready to put their plan to make money on the agenda. After all, at this moment, more than a year and eight months after they arrived here, they are still penniless. When the two of them arrived here, everything they ate, drank, and wore was provided by the master and Aunt Mei. So after the wine was brewed and opened, the two of them were ready to make plans to make money. Although they have no worries about food and clothing at the master's place, the two of them are not good boys and girls. As the saying goes, there is food in your pocket, so don’t panic. Naturally, the two of them would not miss the opportunity to make money, not to mention the many scientific researches and technical needs they will need in the future, as well as the resources they will need for their spiritual practice in the future. Having a certain amount of financial reserves will be of great help to their future development.

So after dinner tonight, the two returned to their room and made some detailed plans. The plan was to use wine to open up a sales channel in the inner city of Donglan County with Aunt Mei, including restaurants in the inner city of Donglan County. , pubs, brothels and other places. It would be best if they can serve as agents for their drinks.
