Chapter 75 The Effects of 8 Years

"Do you think I didn't serve you well?"

After dinner, Li Yuan was brewing a medicinal herb. Qiu Yun squatted down beside him and asked cautiously.

"How could that be?"

Li Yuan was taken aback, then put his arm around her and let her lean against his leg. "You're already very good. Buying a few maids wouldn't cost much, and you have plenty of rooms at home."

"You can relax a bit too."

"Things are different now. Our family isn't poor anymore, so we should still enjoy life."

It's like having experienced a horse-drawn carriage ride, and then making him walk to the South Police Station – he's not used to it.

"don't want...."

Qiu Yun shook her head and refused, "I don't know anything, I just want to serve you. If you don't let me serve you, I don't know what I can do."

Forehead--

Li Yuan smiled bitterly to himself. This...

"Fine, whatever you say!"

He knew that Qiu Yun still felt inferior and thought she was not good enough for him.

"Let's talk about it later..."

Then, lowering her head, they kissed intimately a few times, causing Qiu Yun to blush deeply. "I'm going to wash up..."

.......

Her hair was lightly tied up, her fragrant sweat soaking through; her silk robe was half-undone, her thoughts entwined.

Li Yuan admired the beautiful picture before him.

Qiu Yun shyly closed her eyes and exhaled softly.

"I'm going to cultivate."

"Go to sleep!"

He didn't forget to pinch her cheek, then casually threw on a coat and went out.

After he left, Qiu Yun slowly opened her eyes, let out a long sigh, and then slowly smiled, murmuring, "That was good!"

...

Li Yuan lit the calming incense, drank the medicinal soup, and immediately began cultivating.

"boom--"

The medicinal effects of the decoction exploded within his body like fireworks, and the "Life Record" in his dantian flashed with a deep red light, frantically absorbing the medicinal effects.

bang bang bang-

My heart was pounding. With each beat, the drug's effects entered my heart, and the next moment a new fine line appeared.

The essence of Dao... Qi and blood... all began to stir.

"Such a potent medicine!"

"As expected of a great medicine over eight hundred years old!"

Li Yuan was also shocked, especially since he had only consumed half of the plant.

"What a pity there were only two!"

At Huang Wei's place, he saw at least ten or so plants. "What a waste!"

Immediately begin practicing the health-preserving exercises.

The progress of the health-preserving exercises... is increasing rapidly.

Health Preservation Exercises (801/1600)

802!

...

Until the body returns to calm.

The progress of the health-preserving exercise has reached 898.

Li Yuan let out a long breath. Half a plant had increased the progress by almost 100 points.

Of course, he knew that this was not just due to the effects of the medicine.

He himself underwent the sublimation of the "Life Record", and his martial arts talent gradually increased.

'If we could always have high-quality medicine of this age...'

"It won't be long before I reach the fourth rank!"

"At that time, he won't need to fear anyone in this inner city!"

At the same level, his physical body far surpasses others. Even though he is currently only proficient in martial arts, and he has not deliberately cultivated it, his confidence comes from his powerful physique.

Li Yuan's temporary goal was to focus all his energy on cultivating his health and achieving the fourth rank before considering anything else.

After all, the difference of one realm surpasses everything!

No matter how strong one's martial arts skills are, they cannot compensate for one's cultivation level; at least, that's the case with the martial arts skills he currently possesses.

...

early morning!

Qiu Yun, carrying a basin and a silk handkerchief, called softly from outside the practice room, "A-Yuan..."

"They're here!"

As Li Yuangang walked out, Qiu Yun placed the basin on a stone platform outside, wet a silk handkerchief, and said, "Come wash your face."

"good!"

After wiping his face, Qiu Yun straightened his clothes and, after confirming that everything was alright, said, "Go to the main hall. Breakfast is ready; I'll bring it over."

After saying that, she carried the basin and silk handkerchief towards the kitchen.

"This damn day!"

Li Yuan suddenly cursed, "That's fucking good!"

It would be fine if it stayed like this.

...

"Ah Yuan, this is yours."

Qiu Yun placed a large bowl of porridge in front of him. It was a bit grayish in color and looked... well, it didn't look very appetizing.

"Brother, this porridge..."

Li Jun looked at the gray porridge, his little nose twitching. "It smells so strongly of medicine..."

"There's a lot of medicine added to this porridge, of course it tastes medicinal."

Li Yuan smiled and asked, "Would you like some?"

"No, no... I don't want to!"

Li Jun shook his head like a rattle-drum; he hated taking medicine the most.

Of course, Li Yuan was just teasing him. This medicine was too strong for a child like him, let alone Qiu Yun and Wang Xiulan.

Now that he's at the fifth rank, eating meat isn't very effective anymore. He needs to take strong medicine; otherwise, his qi and blood won't be replenished in time, and he'll soon be depleted.

"This is indeed a big problem."

"Although we still have quite a bit at home, eating like this every day, only taking in and not giving out, won't last long."

"What's wrong?"

"It tastes bad, doesn't it?"

"How about I go get you some sugar?"

Seeing that he wasn't moving, Qiu Yun assumed he couldn't eat, as the medicine was indeed too strong.

"Need not!"

"I'll just eat it with pickled vegetables!"

As he spoke, Li Yuan began to eat heartily, taking a bite of pickled vegetables and a sip of porridge. It must be said, the taste was indeed not very good.

Swallow it whole.

I felt warm all over, and the fatigue from cultivating all night was swept away.

"Another regular bowl, please."

The first bowl was just to get by; now it's time to eat breakfast.

The meat buns, fried dough sticks, and spring rolls on the table were all made by He Qiushi that morning; they were delicious.

.....

"I'm full, I'm going to the South Police Station."

Upon hearing this, Li Jun immediately ran over and took Li Yuan's official sword, something he did every day. Li Yuan had even bestowed upon him the title of "Sword-Carrying Guard."

This made the little guy even more excited and enthusiastic.

No one is allowed to take it from him.

"elder brother...."

"Let's go!"

Li Yuan, knife in one hand, patted the boy's head and strode out.

open the door.

The carriage was already waiting for him.

"Master Yuan!"

Old Fang shouted with a smile.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Li Yuan greeted them.

"You're too kind!"

Old Fang lowered his head slightly; no constable had ever been so polite to him before.

"hehe!"

Li Yuan smiled, said no more, and was about to get into the carriage...

"Brother... Brother..."

Just then, Qiu Tong ran towards them from a distance.

After a while.

"Brother, this carriage...?"

"From the Southern Police Station, I'm using it now."

Li Yuan smiled.

Qiu Tong's eyes widened. He was wondering why there was a carriage in front of Li Yuan's house. "My brother, you really change every day. I almost don't recognize you anymore."

"Nonsense!"

"You'll always be my brother!"

"Come on, get in the carriage and let's talk!"

Li Yuan pulled him into the carriage, saying, "Let's find a teahouse."

"Yes, Master Yuan!"

Old Fang drove the carriage away from the Li family.

"What's the matter, Brother Qiu?"

The two sat facing each other, and Li Yuan asked directly.

"I heard that you shut down Bailing Pharmacy yesterday."

"right!"

Li Yuan nodded. "This isn't a secret; it's been widely known for a while, hasn't it?"

"hey-hey...."

"The thing is, I wanted to ask if there are any medicinal herbs that are over five hundred years old?"
