Guo Yuqing was shocked by Li Mu's recovery, who was like a celestial being, but he obviously did not intend to ask more.
"Little brother, you are the most incredible person I have ever seen." He praised.
Li Mu smiled and said, "Senior, you flatter me."
Li Mu still respected Guo Yuqing very much.
Although Guo Yuqing did not think that he saved Li Mu and just casually said that he "took Li Mu away before Wei Chong found him", Li Mu would not think that it was really that simple.
Apart from other things, on that day, Li Mu was hunted by Wei Chong like a dog. He fled blindly into the depths of Taibai Mountain, which was an inaccessible primeval forest area. The mountains were high, the land was dangerous, and the beasts and miasma were everywhere. Ordinary warriors did not dare to enter there. Based on this, even if Guo Yuqing happened to save Li Mu, it was still a great kindness.
Moreover, the fact that he could take Li Mu away while being chased by a super master like Wei Chong without being tracked down by Wei Chong proved that his ability was really a bit shocking.
After all, Wei Chong was a super master at the peak of the Master Realm.
And more importantly, Li Mu faintly felt that Guo Yuqing did not meet him by chance, but specially went to save him.
As Li Mu thought so, his stomach failed to live up to his expectations and began to rumble.
He immediately blushed.
Guo Yuqing smiled faintly and said, "I thought it would take you some time to recover. Considering your condition yesterday, you couldn't eat anything at all. So I only brought some simple liquid food …" As he said, he took out a vermilion earthen jar from the waterproof animal skin bag.
He opened the lid, and the earthen jar emitted a rich smell of medicine.
As Li Mu smelled it, he couldn't help but drool.
"Eat some medicinal porridge first. My wife cooked it last night. Although your injury has healed, this medicinal porridge can also replenish your Qi and blood. You lost too much blood before." Guo Yuqing smiled and handed over the red lacquer earthen pot.
"Thank you, senior." Li Mu did not hesitate, took the jar with both hands and gulped it down.
"Wow!
It's so hot. "
He grimaced in pain.
But this pain was nothing compared to the pain of breaking all the bones in his body. Li Mu, whose stomach was rumbling with hunger, gulped down the food like the adorkable Lolita Bright Moon who had been hungry for three days and three nights.
"Haha, little brother, you don't have to be so courteous. I'm a few years older than you. If you don't mind, you can call me Big Brother Guo." Guo Yuqing let out a forthright laugh, which had a kind of rough and heroic air that came from the prairie.
"Thank you, Brother Guo."
Li Mu didn't stand on ceremony.
Guo Yuqing burst into laughter.
He didn't know why, but he felt a special affinity with this young county magistrate.
In Li Mu, he seemed to see the figures of those warriors who had the same ambition as him when they roamed the vast prairie.
Those men who had treated each other with sincerity, shared weal and woe, drank and bled together.
It was a pity that things were still the same, but the people had changed.
Some of the old friends had parted ways and turned against each other, while some had returned to the embrace of the Everlasting Heaven and turned into stars in the sky. They would never see each other again in this life.
Li Mu had some temperament that made Guo Yuqing feel familiar.
He laughed and stood up, saying, "Brother, take your time and eat. I'll be back soon."
After that, he strode to the depths of the cave on the riverbed.
Li Mu was curious, but he didn't follow him. Instead, he gulped down the medicinal porridge.
Perhaps because he was too hungry, Li Mu felt that the medicinal porridge was unprecedentedly delicious. A large pot of medicinal porridge was quickly finished by him, and he even licked the mouth of the pot clean.
"Nice …"
Li Mu could feel a strong force of the medicine, like a hot current, melting in his stomach and pouring into his limbs and bones. It seemed that every cell in his body was moaning in comfort.
At this time, he didn't know how precious this pot of medicinal porridge was.
If it was in the Jianghu, there would probably be countless people who wouldn't hesitate to spend a huge sum of money and pay a huge price to obtain a pot of medicinal porridge brewed by Liu Zhiyuan, the Saintess of the Wendao Academy's Outer Court. They would fight to the death for this pot of medicinal porridge.
A moment later.
Footsteps came from behind.
Guo Yuqing, wet all over, dragged two strange big fish from the depths of the cave.
"Good luck. I caught two eyeless fish."
Li Mu took a closer look and found that the two big fish, more than two meters long, had more than 20 tentacles at the corners of their mouths, and each tentacle was more than one meter long. Their fins were more developed, and they were white without scales. Most importantly, they really didn't have eyes. No wonder they were called eyeless fish.
Guo Yuqing skillfully took care of the big fish with the tools in the bag, and then cut off large pieces of fish as delicate as white jade, skewered them with iron skewers, sprinkled seasoning on them, and roasted them on the bonfire.
"A warm man at home!"
Li Mu thought.
"The eyeless fish is an ancient species. It lives under the ground and never sees the sun. Its body contains rich Spiritual Qi of the Earthveins, which is a holy product for improving cultivation and healing. Its taste is especially delicious, which is extremely rare. It is recorded in the book Exotic Species of Heaven and Earth, written by the strongest under the two moons and two suns. In the vast Taibai Mountain, only in the underground river of the Nine-dragons Fall can there be such a treasure …"
Guo Yuqing explained with a smile while roasting the fish.
Smelling the aroma of the roasted fish, Li Mu kept swallowing. "So magical! Haha, Brother Guo's words almost make me drool. Today I can have a good meal."
Watching Guo Yuqing narrate with fervor and assurance, as if he were a knowledgeable and experienced wise man, Li Mu was rather surprised. Many secrets and rare allusions came out of Guo Yuqing's mouth as if he were at the tip of his fingers.
This Brother Guo was not only unfathomable in martial arts, but also so knowledgeable. It could be said that he was the most amazing and elusive person Li Mu met since he came to that world.
Admittedly, Li Mu only knew Brother Guo from two sides.
But in many cases, when a person's elegance, bearing, and charm reached a certain level, they didn't need to meet and get along with each other too many times. Even if it was only a short meeting, or even a few seconds, it could be vividly demonstrated.
Li Mu made a comparison in his mind.
Looking at all the people he knew, whether it was Feng Yuanxing who seemed to be quite knowledgeable, Wei Chong, the elder of the Qing Sha Clan, or the enchanting little Qing Feng, compared with this Brother Guo, all the people he knew and met were worlds apart.
"What on earth is this Brother Guo's background?"
Li Mu was very curious, but he didn't ask.
Soon, the roasted fish was cooked, and the aroma filled the air.
Li Mu didn't stand on ceremony. He took the roasted fish from Guo Yuqing's hand and ate it.
After wolfing down the whole big fish, Li Mu felt that the hunger in his belly disappeared a little.
"Brother Mu, I see that you have a strange physique, amazing resilience, and great strength, but you don't practice internal qi. What's the reason?" Guo Yuqing asked.
After the conversation just now, the distance between the two was shortened a lot.
Guo Yuqing originally didn't intend to ask about Li Mu's secret, but at this time, he wanted to help Li Mu cultivate. After all, it was not the right way for a warrior to practice his body without practicing qi, so he wanted to know more.
Li Mu said without any hesitation, "To tell you the truth, Brother Guo, it's not that I don't want to practice qi, but because of my special physique, I can't practice qi at all. I've read several books on practicing qi, but even if I understand the profound meaning in them, I can't feel qi when I practice.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? "Guo Yuqing was very surprised.
He was very knowledgeable and knew all the Cultivation Methods of the major martial arts schools on the Divine Land, but he had never encountered such a strange thing as Li Mu.
"If Brother Mu doesn't mind, how about I give you a check?" Guo Yuqing pondered for a while and said, "I know a little about the art of Qi and Huang. Maybe I can find the problem for you."
Li Mu knew Guo Yuqing meant well.
He was also touched.
For a long time, Li Mu had been troubled by the problem that he couldn't practice internal qi.
In particular, the old faker once said that the internal force was more powerful and important than the physical force. Li Mu deeply agreed with that.
Guo Yuqing had an extraordinary background and profound knowledge. Although he said he knew a little about the art of Qi and Huang, he was being modest. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a master of Qi and Huang. Maybe he could really find the problem and solve the problem?
"Thank you, Brother Guo."
Li Mu did not hesitate and stretched out his arm.
Guo Yuqing laughed and pressed his fingers on the pulse on Li Mu's right wrist.
Soon, a trace of astonishment appeared on Guo Yuqing's face. "What a strong qi and blood! It's like a vast ocean, and the pulse is thick, tough, and powerful. I've never felt it before …" His five fingers began to beat on Li Mu's pulse rhythmically and weirdly.
Li Mu sensed that streams of air, following Guo Yuqing's tapping, melted into his pulse and then swam along the meridians.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Li Mu's heart started to beat heavily.
The sound was like a heavenly drum, rumbling in the cave. It did not sound like the heartbeat of a living creature at all.
The astonishment on Guo Yuqing's face became more and more intense.
"Clap!"
All of a sudden, his fingers shook and were directly bounced off, unable to put on Li Mu's pulse.
"This … I've never seen it before."
Guo Yuqing's eyes glowed brightly.
"Brother Mu, are you an immortal descending from the sky?" He said incredulously, "If I hadn't treated you when you were in a coma yesterday and knew you were a human being, and now you are sitting in front of me alive, I would really think I am feeling the pulse of a dragon if I close my eyes."
The words "descending from the sky" startled Li Mu.
Guo Yuqing's medical skills were really amazing.
Li Mu did fall from the sky, didn't he?
But those secrets, including the Xiantian Skill and the Zhenwu Boxing, Li Mu naturally could not tell them.
"Brother Guo, do you have a solution? Can I still practice qi? "Li Mu asked impatiently.
"There is a way, but it's very difficult." Guo Yuqing pondered and said slowly.
