Gao Yuan felt that all the surprises he had experienced in the past year could not be compared to the surprises he had experienced from yesterday to this morning by Young Master Ling Dong!
The sky had just begun to brighten when Gao Yuan woke up and began to clean the courtyard. To his surprise, he discovered that the Young Master, who usually slept until late in the morning, was actually practicing martial arts in the courtyard for the first time!
Furiously rubbing his eyes, Gao Yuan hurriedly threw away the broom in his hand and ran over, "Young Master, today … so early?"
Ling Dong's face turned red when he saw Gao Yuan's surprised expression. He was too lazy in the past!
"Hey!" His hands did not stop moving. A one-inch elbow, accompanied by the sound of exhalation, shot out diagonally. Seeing this, Gao Yuan was stunned. The level of that one-inch elbow was too high!
"Do you want to learn? If you want to learn, then take a good look! "Ling Dong yelled as he punched. Gao Yuan was puzzled as to why his Young Master's martial arts had suddenly become so brilliant, so he carefully watched!
The martial arts Ling Dong was practicing was called Bone Forging Fist. It was a type of martial arts that was specially used to train the muscles and bones, coordinate the various parts of the body, and cultivate the awareness of martial arts.
It was learned from Ling Dong's previous life's True Dipper Sect. It was not a brilliant martial art, but it was very practical. This martial art was especially useful for Houtian martial artists who were unable to use martial arts. It allowed the body to be very coordinated, and many of the moves were very practical!
However, to Ling Dong, the moves of Bone Forging Fist were not important. What Ling Dong cared about was the adjustment of Bone Forging Fist's physical fitness. Ling Dong's current body was really lacking!
Thus, in this small courtyard, Ling Dong practiced again and again. His face gradually became red, and hot sweat rolled down his forehead. However, his movements became more nimble, and were no longer as choppy as before. However, it was still far from Ling Dong's requirements for the body!
As for Gao Yuan, he went from watching at the beginning to slowly mimicking Ling Dong's moves. Finally, he began to mimic Ling Dong's moves one by one. After a few rounds, his moves were filled with vigor and were even more imposing than Ling Dong's. In the end, Gao Yuan's punches were even more imposing than Ling Dong's!
Ling Dong knew very well that it wasn't that he wasn't as good as Gao Yuan, but that the direction of their strengths was different!
Gao Yuan's physique was tall and sturdy, and his natural disposition was valiant and bold. Even the mildest of fist techniques would become extremely powerful in Gao Yuan's hands, turning into the kind of open and wide path.
As for Ling Dong's punches, they were the epitome of his habits from the past hundreds of years. He was careful and cautious. If he didn't have the confidence to win, he would always hold back 30% of his strength. If he found an opportunity, he would quietly strike with all his strength!
The master and the servant continued to practice martial arts until the sun was high up in the sky amidst the cheers of the crowd.
Along the way, even when Ling Yuanshan arrived, Ling Dong and Gao Yuan, who were focused on practicing, didn't notice it!
However, Ling Yuanshan didn't disturb his son's unprecedented morning practice. He only quietly stared at his son's figure from the side door for a long time with a face full of gratification!
Ling Yuanshan watched until the sky was bright before he left with a face full of joy. When he turned around, two drops of turbid tears inadvertently fell onto the dust.
"A prodigal son turning over a new leaf is worth more than gold!" Ling Yuanshan was so happy that he almost shouted out loud!
His bones began to itch, and his limbs felt as if there were countless caterpillars burrowing into them. It was unbearable, but at the same time, it was extremely comfortable! When this feeling came, Ling Dong knew that today's training was done!
"Gao Yuan, go get a few buckets of hot water. After washing up, we have to work!" Ling Dong shouted after finishing his training!
"Yes, Young Master. I'll go right away!" Gao Yuan agreed straightforwardly. Then, he asked curiously, "Young Master, you said work. What kind of work do you need to do?"
Ling Dong, who was just about to enter his bedroom, stopped in his tracks and sneered, "Of course it's to be a good-for-nothing. I'm going to be a good-for-nothing Third Young Master Ling on the streets!"
"Oh …" Gao Yuan said thoughtfully.
"Gao Yuan, from today onwards, if anyone asks about my situation, do you know how to answer?" Although Gao Yuan was incomparably loyal to him, Ling Dong felt that it was still better to give him a word of advice.
Gao Yuan didn't turn around immediately. He tilted his head and thought for a while. A sly look flashed across his eyes. "If anyone asks, I will answer that Young Master still sleeps in the red sun every day and only gets up when the sun is high in the sky!"
"Go quickly!" Ling Dong nodded in satisfaction. He added in his heart, "I believe this situation won't last for long! It won't be long before he soars to the heavens! "
After washing up, Ling Dong changed into a fresh set of clothes and walked out of the Ling Residence with his lackey, Gao Yuan. Waving a fan of beauties in his hand, he shamelessly hummed a lewd song that was popular in the brothels. The Ling Family guards on duty couldn't help but shake their heads as they saw this!
After leaving the Ling Residence, Ling Dong and Gao Yuan wandered around the streets. From time to time, they would flirt with the young women and beautiful girls who passed by, causing the passersby to avoid them.
He strolled around the rouge and face powder stores, and then the handkerchief and women's clothing stores, causing the female customers in the stores to blush and leave in a hurry. Not long after, Gao Yuan was more or less carrying some things in his hands. There were rouge and face powder, women's handkerchiefs and embroidered shoes, and of course, there were also a few bags of very inconspicuous medicinal herbs!
If one observed carefully, they would notice Ling Dong's route. After every random stroll, Ling Dong would enter an ordinary pharmacy that catered to the commoners and buy some common medicinal herbs. Of course, he would definitely buy Yin Snake Slough, Epimedium Epimedium, Spring Grass, and other common medicinal herbs that brothels often bought. However, there were also a few valuable medicinal herbs, such as Asparagus Fruit, which was used to concoct the Energy Gathering Pill!
Ling Dong used a total of eight medicinal herbs for the Small Energy Gathering Pill. As for the Energy Gathering Pill used for peak Houtian martial artists, there were a total of nine medicinal herbs. After adding up the ingredients, there were seven medicinal herbs that were the same!
If someone found out that Ling Dong was buying medicinal herbs to concoct the Energy Gathering Pill, then Ling Dong's plan to use the Earth Fire Pill Room in the Ling Residence would be met with a mishap. This was also the reason why Ling Dong was strolling around the streets and buying medicinal herbs!
Ling Dong's harvest in the morning was quite big. After making several turns, he had already bought enough herbs to refine the Minor Energy Gathering Pellet. However, the Five Flavors that he bought were also the supplementary ingredients. Basically, they could be found in any pharmacy.
However, the three main ingredients to concoct the Small Energy Gathering Pill were ten-years-old Yellow Cypress, ten-years-old Scarlet Grass, and thirty-years-old White Spirit Fruit. These were not available in ordinary pharmacies. If he wanted to buy these three medicinal herbs, he would have to go to the Spirit Herb Pavilion or Hundred Herb Hall in the western part of the city.
However, Ling Dong did not plan to buy them today. It would not be good if someone became suspicious! The medicinal herbs were secondary. He could buy them with a little more effort and money. Ling Dong was most worried about the right to use the Earth Fire Pill Room. Although Ling Dong was once an Earth Alchemist, without the Earth Fire Pill Furnace, he would not be able to concoct anything!
"Young Master, where are we going?" Seeing Ling Dong turn around and walk back, Gao Yuan asked with a bitter expression on his face while carrying several bags.
"We are going to a restaurant outside the city!" Ling Dong said as he waved the Beauty Fan.
"Young Master, didn't we just drink tea at the teahouse half an hour ago? I still have a stomach full of snacks! "Gao Yuan grumbled.
"We are going to a restaurant. Of course, we are going to drink wine and listen to music!" After saying this, Ling Dong muttered to himself, "While we are at it, we will also go fishing …" While he was talking, Ling Dong's eyes swept past a few sneaky figures in the corner.
