Mortal Mirror

Li Ergou laughed heartily at the words of the Great White Elephant, like a triumphant rooster, and hobbled back.

At that moment, he suddenly remembered something, stopped, and looked at the Great White Elephant, saying, 'Oh, right, usually, you should give some reward. I won't mind if it's a lot, and I won't complain if it's a little.'

Great White Elephant: '...#￥％54'

Li Ergou grinned. The Great White Elephant was quite considerate, giving him two taels of silver.

Seeing Li Ergou leave, the onlookers were dumbfounded because this had never happened since the establishment of the martial arts gym—the sparring partner had won.

Huang Batian, on the other hand, was happy. This money tree, Li Ergou, could finally continue to shake for him.

Niu Dali stared with his bull-like eyes, filled with disbelief. Although Li Ergou appeared to be getting beaten, who had ever seen someone getting beaten exhausting the one throwing punches? What was going on? What had happened after he left? He fell into deep confusion.

Li Ergou returned to his room, closed the door, and chuckled twice. Although he was in excruciating pain, he was inexplicably happy because he considered it a kind of victory.

He usually soaked in a medicinal bath after being beaten, but unfortunately, all the copied medicinal liquids were used up.

He felt around his body and pulled out the pillbox. When placed in the bronze mirror, it seemed to have more luster than before, and the aroma was even stronger.

Without hesitation, he swallowed the Foundation Strengthening Pill.

He immediately felt the Foundation Strengthening Pill turn into a warm current flowing down his throat. The next moment, he felt that what flowed down his throat was not a medicinal liquid but a line of fire, warming his entire stomach.

This heat became more and more intense, and he couldn't bear it. Most importantly, he didn't know how to digest this massive amount of energy.

Without the guidance of a cultivation technique, the scorching energy rampaged through his body, giving him a feeling worse than death. The pain was even more excruciating than pain in the bone marrow.

"Puff..." He couldn't help but spit out a large mouthful of blood, which made him feel a little better, but he immediately fainted, losing consciousness.

Fortunately, he had a mysterious gas in his body. The gas emerged from his body and began to devour the power of the Foundation Strengthening Pill. The mysterious gas was very powerful and eventually devoured all the energy of the Foundation Strengthening Pill, then fused with Li Ergou's flesh and blood.

His swollen body began to deflate rapidly, and at this moment, a layer of impurities was expelled from his body, leaving a layer of sticky black liquid on his skin, with a foul and rotten smell.

Li Ergou woke up, actually熏woken up by his own stench.

"So smelly!" he said, pinching his nose. If he hadn't seen the roof, he would have thought he had been thrown into a latrine. He quickly stood up and realized that there was a layer of sticky liquid on his body, and the smell was coming from it.

He hurried to the backyard, picked up a bucket, and started rinsing himself. It took him three full buckets of water to wash away the black, sticky stuff. He was surprised and didn't know what was going on.

Immediately, he felt something was wrong because he felt his body was lighter. However, when he looked at himself, he hadn't lost weight; his muscles seemed to have increased, and he seemed to have grown taller.

This was strange. He jumped with all his might and soared four feet into the air. He was dumbfounded. He clearly remembered that he could only jump three feet at most. How could he jump so high out of nowhere?

He thought for a moment that it must be related to the Foundation Strengthening Pill, but he couldn't eat that stuff casually. It could really kill someone. He was still scared.

The more powerful he became, the happier he naturally was. He also found that his strength seemed to have increased a lot. He saw a stone roller on the ground, walked over, grabbed both sides, and with a sudden force, he lifted the three-hundred-pound stone roller.

He was excited. Unknowingly, he had three hundred pounds of strength. Although he couldn't compare with those martial arts masters yet, he would definitely surpass them in time.

He pondered for a moment that he should eat more copied food in the future. He was thinking that he should find time to build a good relationship with the martial arts gym's chef. If he could freely enter and exit the kitchen, wouldn't he be able to copy more food?

He walked towards the martial arts gym, pondering. As soon as he stepped into the back door of the martial arts gym, he saw Granny Wu waiting anxiously at the door.

Li Ergou asked in confusion, "Granny, are you waiting for someone?"

When Granny Wu saw Li Ergou, she said happily, "Yes, I'm waiting for you. I'll be away for a few days, so you'll have to take care of the pharmacy for me. I'll give you the prescription. You're familiar with the rest of the procedures. I've already told the master, and he agreed."

Li Ergou was a little dazed. He didn't expect Granny Wu to trust him so much that she would give him the prescription. This made him very excited. If he had the prescription, wouldn't he be able to concoct the medicinal liquid himself?

His voice became a little excited as he said, "Granny Wu, don't worry. I will definitely complete the task."

Granny Wu said anxiously, "Okay, okay, I believe you."

As she spoke, she handed him a piece of paper with more than thirty medicinal names on it.

Granny Wu naturally knew that Li Ergou was illiterate, so she said, "Take this paper and go directly to the pharmacy to get the medicine. Remember, don't get everything from one place. Divide it among three places and mix it up."

Li Ergou knew that the prescriptions for treating injuries were different for each martial arts gym, and it was also a secret of each martial arts gym. Don't underestimate the power of this prescription; it concerned the life and death of each martial arts gym.

Li Ergou nodded and quickly said that he understood. Granny Wu explained some related matters and gave him an iron token before hurriedly leaving the martial arts gym.

Li Ergou naturally didn't want to inquire about what Granny Wu was going to do. At this moment, he was a little excited. He had been thinking about how to find an excuse to leave the martial arts gym, but now he had a reason, and Huang Batian wouldn't dare to make things difficult for him.

He glanced at the iron token. He didn't know what kind of iron it was, but it was very hard. One side was written with "Haotian Martial Arts Gym," and the other side was a landscape painting.

He didn't have time to study these things. He quickly ran to the accounting room to withdraw the silver. To his surprise, one concoction of medicinal materials actually required one hundred taels of silver. Good heavens, it gave him a big shock. He didn't expect the medicinal materials to be so expensive. This could buy several pigs.

He arrived at the door, and the gatekeeper seemed to have received the master's order. After he showed the token and explained what he was going to do, he let him leave.
