In fact, it is no wonder that Lu Miaozi was so surprised.

Even Meng Xiuyuan himself is quite happy with his current progress in body refining.

The muscles and bones are as solid as iron, the Qi and blood surge like a flood, the Qi of the five internal organs is strong, and the meridians are wide and smooth.

The thin little body contains unimaginable power.

In terms of physical strength alone, he is only eight or nine years old at the moment, but he has already surpassed the final state before reincarnation in his previous life.

The reason for this achievement is not only due to the understanding of the mysteries of the human body in the white light before reincarnation, but also due to Meng Xiuyuan's persistence.

You must know that given Meng Xiuyuan's current situation, if he wants to regain his strength as soon as possible, he must first use the "Beiming Divine Art" to refine his true energy as he did in his previous life.

But within a few months, not only did Meng Xiuyuan not have any vitality left in his body, but he had almost used up all the essence of vitality he had brought with him after reincarnation.

Such a radical choice of cultivation route has its own reasons.

A few months ago, when he had just seen through the mystery of the womb, Meng Xiuyuan had already realized that the world he lived in in this life was very different from his previous two lives.

Although he was reincarnated as a human being, the Beiming Qi no longer existed, but relying on the experience and feeling left behind during his previous life's cultivation, as well as his still clear and vigorous spirit, Meng Xiuyuan could vaguely feel that there was something vaguely hidden between the heaven and the earth.

Endless "Qing Qi".

There was no need to look for any famous mountains, great rivers, caves or paradises. Meng Xiuyuan felt the familiar feeling just in this inconspicuous small town in the south of the Yangtze River.

When he first noticed this, Meng Xiuyuan was filled with excitement. He just thought that in this life, the sea would be as vast as the fish could leap, and the sky would be as high as the birds could fly. He no longer had to worry about lack of spiritual energy, and his future was limitless.

But after calming down a little, Meng Xiuyuan felt a lot of pressure again.

After all, the spiritual energy in this world was supplied to more than just him.

Even in that peaceful town restaurant, where Meng Xiuyuan was greeting and dropping off every day, he could see many practitioners carrying swords, guns and sticks on their way. Obviously, compared to the previous two lives, the style of martial arts here is much better.

More prosperous.

It can be expected that the overall level of martial arts in this life will definitely be much better. In the world that has not been set foot yet, there will definitely be many masters and heroes.

To be cautious, if Meng Xiuyuan only returns to the level of his previous life, he may not be able to stand out among them.

Meng Xiuyuan's character is not very competitive at first, but he has been a peerless master for two generations, and he is used to living as he pleases. It is really difficult for him to be subordinate to others and live a cautious life again.

For this reason, Meng Xiuyuan thought for a long time and finally came up with a long-term plan, which was to lay a solid foundation as the first step and invest all the essence of vitality brought by reincarnation into the tempering of the body.

After all, if there are superior and inferior methods of Qi training, what Meng Xiuyuan learned in his previous life may not be as profound and profound as the martial arts in this world. If given the opportunity in the future, Meng Xiuyuan may turn to practice the magical secrets of this world.

But the body is the foundation of martial arts, and this is a common truth everywhere. Meng Xiuyuan will not go wrong if he builds a strong body at this time.

From then on, Meng Xiuyuan began to practice hard day and night, not daring to relax at all for several months. He was afraid that a little laziness now would make his skills fall behind others in the future, and it would be difficult to make up for it.

Unexpectedly, when he met Mr. Lu Miaozi today, Meng Xiuyuan realized that he seemed a little too anxious.

"You actually... actually..."

Lu Miaozi pointed at Meng Xiuyuan, choked for a long time, and still did not say the next words. But his eyes, which were extremely shocked, made it clear what he had not finished.

"Old sir, isn't it common to have a physique like mine?"

Meng Xiuyuan did not know much about the overall level of martial arts in the Tang Dynasty, and had always wanted to collect more relevant information. After hearing what Lu Miaozi said before, and knowing that he seemed to have a close relationship with the masters in the world, he

I couldn't help but ask.

"It's more than uncommon..."

As Lu Miaozi spoke, a pair of eyes scanned Meng Xiuyuan up and down, and it was difficult to look away for a long time:

"I, Lu Miaozi, have met countless people in my life, but I have never seen such an oddity as you.

You must know that no matter how exquisite a person's moves are or how mysterious his realm is, if he wants to become a master in the world, he must have a strong body of true energy as support.

Although my interests were too broad and my energy was distracted by miscellaneous studies, I was unable to go very far in martial arts.

But even great masters like Ning Daoqi and Bi Xuan dare not say that they can defeat me with physical strength alone without using Qi..."

Lu Miaozi is known as "the most skilled craftsman in the world". He has a high status and a somewhat aloof personality.

In the past, even when facing the strongest men in the world, he was neither humble nor arrogant, with a calm expression.

It happened that today, I met Meng Xiuyuan, an eight or nine-year-old boy, and he said all the good things he had never said in half his life. And after he said them, they were still not enough to describe the surprise in his heart.

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he was quite surprised. He smiled and nodded, and did not want to argue with the old man about his offense.

"Old sir, thank you for helping me clear up my doubts today.

I’ll say goodbye to you now.”

After cupping his hands and saying softly, Meng Xiuyuan immediately turned around.

"Little brother, wait a minute..."

When Lu Miaozi saw that Meng Xiuyuan was about to leave, he hurriedly tried to stop him with words, but he was still a little slow.

There was a "bang" sound, the ground cracked, and dust and smoke were everywhere. Meng Xiuyuan's figure had already shot away into the distance. In one leap, he was more than ten feet away.

After so many ups and downs, the little figure disappeared into the distant wilderness.

…

Cuishan Town welcomes the restaurant.

In the thick dusk, the shop had long been closed, but there was still noise and shouting coming from inside.

"What, you kid wants to leave?! You are so ungrateful!"

Boss Zhang had a skinny figure but a loud voice. He stared at Meng Xiuyuan with his eyes and howled in disbelief:

"If you work here, I won't deprive you of food or drink, nor will I punish or abuse you.

When you get to other places, where can you find such good things?

Just because I don't pay you wages, you want to leave?

What a visionless boy..."

The proprietress Zhang's sister-in-law on the side couldn't help but persuade her softly:

"Brother Meng, don't be impulsive.

Although what Lao Zhang said didn't sound good, there was still some truth in what he said.

Now that there is a panic outside, where can you go at such a young age?

If you need money, just come to me and get it..."

Before Mrs. Zhang finished speaking, she was interrupted angrily by Boss Zhang on the side:

“What kind of money, have you asked me?!

Do you know that this guy still owes us three thousand dollars?

Besides, he is just a kid, so what’s the use of holding money..."

But while he was talking, Boss Zhang glanced at Meng Xiuyuan who had packed his baggage neatly and carried it on his shoulders. Seeing that he seemed to have decided to leave, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said:

"Okay, Mr. Meng, I admit it.

I really like you, you are a smart, hard-working person.

In this way, I promise you that from today on, I will save your wages for you and treat it as part of the money to buy this restaurant.

After ten years, your sister-in-law Zhang and I can no longer work together, so I will leave this restaurant to you and Yongzi to manage it together.

You will get four or six benefits from him. As long as you help him work hard, getting a wife, having children, and buying a house and land in the future will definitely not be a problem.

If you don’t believe it, we can sign it and ask the mayor to be the guarantee..."

Meng Xiuyuan not only smiled when he heard this, but also said that Boss Zhang, who was always shrewd and calculating, seemed quite grand this time and seemed to really value him.

Smiling and shaking his head, he cupped his hands towards the two of them and said politely:

"Shopkeeper, madam, thank you both for taking me in these few months.

But I do have something to do, and I don’t want to stay here to work anymore..."

While he was talking, he heard the rapid "dong dong dong" footsteps coming from upstairs. He looked up and saw that it was Yongzi, the youngest son of the old couple.

"Brother Meng, Brother Meng, do you really want to leave..."

Yongzi rushed over and grabbed Meng Xiuyuan's sleeve tightly, very reluctant to let go.

Meng Xiuyuan was easy-going, and his talk was broad and interesting. He had always been popular with children. Within a few months, this little boy, who was one or two years younger than Meng Xiuyuan, had already regarded him as a good friend.

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he smiled and patted Yongzi on the shoulder. He did not answer, but said to Lao Zhang and his wife:

"Shopkeeper, there is one last thing I need to remind you.

The landlady's complexion was pale, and the pulse in her right hand was thin and astringent, which was obviously due to some lung disease.

It doesn't matter in a short period of time, but if it is delayed for a long time, it may become a big problem.

I would say that it is best to take her to see a doctor as soon as possible.

And don’t go to the quack doctor in town just to save money, it’s better to go to the city.”

After saying this, before the two of them could ask more questions, Meng Xiuyuan bowed his hands again, then turned around and walked out of the store.
