"Then I don't seem to be any different from an ordinary martial artist?"
"Of course there's a difference. An ordinary person's physique is weak and can't absorb any nourishment. Eating too much ginseng is not only not beneficial, but harmful. I didn't tell you in the beginning because your body is still weak, so it's useless to tell you. "
"These days, you've been slowly recuperating, and you've cultivated a trace of Essence Qi. Now you've reached the requirement. I was planning to ask you to find a way to raise money. Now you can save some trouble, but I'm afraid the money won't last long."
Li Qingshan also understood where the difference was. He could eat more ginseng than an ordinary person, and he didn't have to worry about a nosebleed. His body was like a cauldron, and with the help of divine arts, he could refine and absorb all the Essence Qi that entered his body, without any waste.
This also meant that Li Qingshan had to buy a lot of ginseng, and ginseng was an expensive medicine no matter what era it was.
But he had to eat ginseng like a carrot, so no matter how much money he had, it wouldn't be enough.
How much ginseng could he buy with the one thousand taels of silver he had? He couldn't help but ponder this question!
After lamenting, Li Qingshan could not help but admit that this was not bad news. The rate at which his strength grew would reach a whole new level.
In order to pursue a breakthrough in strength, ordinary people would have to search for rare elixirs, and even if they took them, there might not be any effect. But he only needed to eat the most common and easy to get things, and his strength would continue to improve. God knows how many people would be envious of him, so why would he be dissatisfied?
As for real money, there would always be a way. With enough strength, why would he be afraid of not having money?
"This little devil is a bit interesting." Oxen turned behind Li Qingshan, and its round eyes stared at Little Ann, who was hiding behind Li Qingshan. From the beginning to the end, Little Ann had been hiding behind Li Qingshan, and he quietly and curiously looked at Oxen.
Little Ann was so scared that he hid to the other side, not daring to face this talking bull. Although Oxen didn't have any murderous or baleful aura, he instinctively didn't want to get close to him.
"You mean Little Ann? He has nowhere to go now, so I'll look after him for a while. You don't mind, right?" Li Qingshan said it casually. If Oxen minded, they would not have said it in front of Little Ann.
"With only that piece of paper, she actually refined a ghost slave, and it is a ghost slave that can drive things. It is really incredible. Either the old woman is a genius in ghost refining, or the little ghost's spiritual quality is somewhat special. However, seeing that the old woman had been refining for so many years and sacrificed so many test subjects, but she had only refined such a ghost slave, it must be the latter.
Li Qingshan looked at Little Ann. What was so special about him? However, a little ghost was a very strange thing in itself.
Oxen said, "Maybe he is your best trophy. Why don't you take him as a ghost slave? This child may be of great use to you in the future."
"What ghost slave? He is just a child, and I have promised him to give him freedom." Even in the most difficult time, Li Qingshan was unwilling to go against his heart and sell Oxen for travel expenses. Of course, he was even more unwilling to do so now.
Oxen felt that he had said too much and yawned, "That's up to you, but it has lost its master. If no one feeds it, it will not take long for its aura to dissipate, and its soul will fly away and disappear."
Soul will fly away and disappear! Little Ann blinked his eyes in confusion.
"Yin ghosts are not poultry and livestock. Do they need to be fed?"
"The dead can't be allowed to live in the world of the living. Even the extremely powerful Yin ghosts can't resist the sunshine, and even a gust of wind can kill them. If no one died and all the ghosts were left in time, it is unknown how many ghosts have been accumulated in the world for thousands of years. "
"What should I do?"
At dusk, Li Qingshan strode through the mountains and forests with an axe on his shoulder, and a little ghost that seemed to be real wandered around him.
Sometimes it ran far to the stream and looked at a fish curiously. Sometimes it flew to the treetops and touched a bird. But without waiting for Li Qingshan to call, it returned to him like the wind and looked at him eagerly.
Li Qingshan shook his head and smiled back. For this child, he had a faint sense of responsibility in his heart.
But behind them, the bird fell stiffly from the treetops, and the fish floated on the water with its belly turned white, which proved that this was not just an ordinary child, but a dangerous ghost.
Li Qingshan searched carefully in the forest, and finally stood in front of a big locust tree that needed more than ten people to encircle, and waved the axe to chop it.
Although he didn't know the axe method or the knife method, the "Ox Demon's Vigorous Fist" contained the most basic and most mysterious method of using force. He could use any weapon freely.
Every chop of the axe was powerful and heavy in the same place.
Wood chips flew, and the huge tree fell.
Li Qingshan didn't care about anything else. He only cut out a small piece of the wood core in the center and brought it to Little Ann.
Little Ann reached out to touch the small piece of wood core, and his little face showed a comfortable expression. In the end, he simply turned into a gust of wind and went into it.
Li Qingshan smiled. This was according to the method taught by Oxen. He found an ancient locust tree that was more than a hundred years old. The locust tree had the natural effect of gathering Yin spirits, which was very beneficial to Yin spirits. Now that he tried it, it was indeed true.
In this way, he didn't have to worry about Little Ann's soul dispersing.
Back to the hut, he sat on the big stone in front of the door and carved the wood core into the shape of a wooden plate. After careful polishing, he carved the word "An" and wore it on his waist. The Yang Qi in his body would slowly nourish Little Ann's soul.
He could also use the Yin Qi in Little Ann to practice controlling the Qi in his body.

In the small courtyard, Li Qingshan sat on the ground and kept shouting, "Little Ann, neck!"
Little Ann hugged his neck. Under the stimulation of Yin Qi, the Genuine Qi in Li Qingshan's body was mobilized and flowed to his neck.
"Right arm!"
Little Ann quickly changed his direction and hugged his arm. Although his handsome little face was still pale, it was full of a childish and innocent smile, as if it was a very fun game.
Until the moon rose, Li Qingshan Just Now got up, and Little Ann reluctantly retreated.
With the help of Little Ann, the Genuine Qi in Li Qingshan's body was tamed a lot, and Little Ann's eyes were a little more lively, not as dull as they were at first.
Li Qingshan thought about it. This was probably not just due to the nourishment of yang qi. No matter how clever a child was, if they were taken away from their parents and watched over, abused, or beaten as they pleased, they would probably become so dull and dull.
And when he regained his freedom and life slightly returned to normal, the Spiritual Qi in his heart began to sprout.
Little Ann looked at Li Qingshan expectantly. Although he still couldn't speak, his eyes clearly said, "Play again!"
"Well, this is not a game. That's all for today. We'll talk about it tomorrow night!"
Little Ann nodded obediently. He would never act like a spoiled child, but he couldn't hide his disappointment.
Li Qingshan couldn't do anything about it. "Alright, let's play again!"
Little Ann smiled shyly, but immediately pricked up his ears.
