Chapter 15 Martial Palace Training Partner
The cause of Elder Liu's death was quickly found out. What made Jiang Yi feel less guilty was that Elder Liu had always had a solid illness. He had fallen ill three times and almost died in the past few days. back to the west...
For Elder Liu, Jiang Yi has no feelings, but he didn't kill him, but he died because of him. He has been very restless and guilty these days. In the middle of the night, I went to Elder Liu's grave, kowtowed a few times, and poured two glasses of rice wine.
And because of Elder Liu's death, Jiang Yi had absolutely no chance to make alchemy, and the entire alchemy room was sealed off. The only alchemist in the family is gone, so the pills can only be purchased outside, and the pills stored in the pill room will naturally be sealed and dispatched in a unified manner.
Elder Liu has been dead for three days, Jiang Yi hides in his backyard to practice every day, and let Jiang Xiaonu guard in the front yard. He has a deep worry in his heart, now that he is no longer working in the alchemy room, the family may arrange new chores for him, and Manager Rong may also come to the door to retrieve the token of the Xishan Medicine Field.
"Time, as long as you give me some more time, any problem will not be a problem!"
Sitting cross-legged in the backyard, Jiang Yi gritted his teeth secretly. In the past few days, he has deciphered dozens of runes on his seal, and his cultivation speed is still gradually increasing, reaching seven or eight times the original speed.
Although this speed is still far behind the outstanding children of the family, he originally practiced for a month to surpass others in one day, and his cultivation speed was 30 times slower than the outstanding children of the Jiang family. But he firmly believed that as long as he continued to decipher the runes on the seal, his cultivation speed would sooner or later catch up with most of the family's children, or even... far exceed it.
The upper limit of black Yuanli refining is only ten strands each time, but it has abnormal growth ability. As long as his cultivation speed can be raised to the level of the family's outstanding children, it is not impossible for him to catch up with them in a short period of time.
In fact, he also thought about telling the family that his seal was being cracked and that there was an unknown practice, so that the family would pay attention to it, so that all problems could be solved easily. But thinking that no one in the Jiang family had treated him for the past few years, and with the matter of Elder Liu, he was also afraid that the Jiang family would resent him, so he decided to wait until his strength improved by leaps and bounds.
"Jiang Yi, get out!"
A deep shout in the front yard pulled Jiang Yi back from his thoughts. When he heard the voice, he secretly thought that something was wrong, and Manager Rong finally came to the door. He shrank, and immediately hid in the thatch pile in the backyard, not daring to breathe out.
Vaguely, he heard Jiang Xiaonu's soft explanation, and Manager Rong's angry scolding, until a moment later, Jiang Xiaonu ran into the backyard: "Master, Manager Rong left, but he said that tomorrow morning Let you find him and go to the Xishan Medicine Field to take stock."
"really……"
Jiang Yi's face darkened, his eyes rolled a few times, he pondered for a moment and gritted his teeth: "Little slave, you stay at home obediently, I'll go out first."
He went into the house and took out the black robe he bought last time, put it on and hurried out of the yard. He had just walked out several dozen feet when he suddenly turned around and saw a figure flashing behind a corner in the distance. , immediately sneered.
"Jiang Ruhu really sent someone to follow him!"
He poured all the strength into his legs, ran towards the west gate with all his strength and listened attentively, the man behind him really came after him quickly. Jiang Yi ran wildly for a while, turned around, and suddenly entered an alley next to him to hide, and waited until the person behind him was swept towards the front like a gust of wind, then quickly turned his head and ran towards Jiangjia South Courtyard.
Walking out from the south gate of the Jiang family compound, Jiang Yi made sure that no one was following him, put on his cloak and went straight to the square in the city. Half an hour later, he came to a large medicine shop on the east side of the square.
He swaggered in, took out the only purple gold leaf on his body, slapped it on the counter, and drank heavily: "Shopkeeper, give me ten spirit pills!"
"Okay, come and get ten spirit pills."
The owner of the store is a fat middle-aged man, and when he saw Zijin's face, he immediately smiled obsequiously, and while smiling, he stretched out his hand to grab the gold leaf on the counter: "Hehe... this guest officer, a spirit god Dan ten taels of silver, a total of one tael of purple gold."
"snort!"
Jiang Yi snorted coldly, but he didn't let go of his hand. The fat shopkeeper's complexion changed, and he laughed awkwardly: "It seems that the guest officer is a regular customer, so I have to charge you a total of ninety taels of silver."
Only then Jiang Yi nodded slightly, gritted his teeth in pain and let go, watching Zijin, who had only been in possession for a few days, enter someone else's purse.
This is also a helpless move for him, without the high-level elixir relying on his cultivation speed, it is impossible to cultivate to the second level of the casting cauldron in a short period of time, and he can only climb back if he dares to go to the west mountain. On that day, he and Jiang Ruhu made an appointment to meet outside the west gate ten days later, because they had made up their minds to use high-level pills and black energy to practice quickly...
After buying the Spiritual God Pill, he left in a hurry with the remaining ten taels of silver in his pocket, but went straight to the Juzhen Pavilion on the south side of the square.
It was Guanshi Liu who received him last time, and Guanshi Liu politely brought Jiang Yi into the Accord, and after inviting a maid to serve him tea, he smiled and asked, "Young master, are you going to sell pills again this time? Do you have any good ones?"
Jiang Yi smiled wryly, he had ten spirit pills on him, but he just bought them... Fortunately, his entire face was covered by the cloak, so Guanshi Liu couldn't see his expression, so he stood up and cupped his hands, saying, "Guanshi Liu, I would like to see your young lady, I have something to ask!"
Manager Liu looked embarrassed, shook his head and said, "Master, I'm really sorry! Miss went to the Martial Hall to practice the day before yesterday. If you have something urgent, why don't you... May I ask the chief supervisor?"
"Wu Dian?"
Jiang Yi was stunned and secretly thought it was bad luck, and he became a little suspicious in his heart, did any major events happen in Tianyu City recently? Why do these young masters and ladies all go to the Martial Palace to practice?
He wanted to see Ji Tingyu, but there was nothing particularly important about it. On that day, he felt that Ji Tingyu seemed to value him a little bit? So I came here rashly, wanting to see if I could borrow twelve taels of purple gold from her and go to Fengyuelou to redeem the token first! When he thought about it, as a young lady of the Ji family, Juzhen Pavilion was so rich that twelve taels of Zijin must be a drop in the bucket for her, but he didn't expect that she was not here.
"No, I'll come back later."
Jiang Yi stood up in embarrassment, the master was not there, how could these servants dare to borrow money without authorization? If the chief manager was asked for instructions, wouldn't he be embarrassed to death if the other party didn't borrow it?
Walking out of the Juzhen Pavilion in embarrassment, Jiang Yi stood blankly on the square, looking at the constant flow of traffic, feeling very distressed in his heart. With the spirit pill, he is not afraid of Jiang Ruhu and others. The problem is that the alchemy room has been sealed, and he has not abandoned the pill. How can he make money quickly?
He glanced at the square, and was suddenly attracted by a grand hall in the north of the square. The main reason was that the outside of the hall was full of people and it was very lively, which made him a little curious.
Wu Dian!
Jiang Yi knows a little about this grand hall. In fact, there are no people in the entire Tianxing Continent who don't know the Hall of Martial Arts, because there is such a black and simple hall in the center of all cities, and the Hall of Martial Arts has a long history. Since the beginning of the era, this Martial Hall has existed.
Martial Palace is not a force, and has never participated in continental disputes. Strictly speaking, it should be the largest firm in the Tianxing Continent! However, it serves high-level warriors and young masters and ladies from wealthy families. If you don't have the strength of the Purple Mansion, if you want to enter the Martial Palace, you must pay a tael of Zijin to get started.
Jiang Yi heard it when he was very young, that the martial arts hall is simply a paradise for cultivation, there is a powerful gathering spirit formation inside, the cultivation speed can be doubled in it, and there are all kinds of good things to assist cultivation, which can make The strength of the warriors has improved by leaps and bounds. However, this Martial Palace was too far away for him who could hardly even eat, so he didn't bother to inquire about it.
Seeing the crowds around the Hall of Martial Arts, and thinking that Jiang Henshui and Ji Tingyu had gone in to practice, Jiang Yi was a little curious, so he walked quickly outside the Hall of Martial Arts.
The main gate of the Martial Hall was closed, but the side door was open, but there were two black-armored guards guarding it. Jiang Yi followed the crowd and fixed his eyes on a notice outside the Martial Hall.
After a quick glance, Jiang Yi quickly realized that the martial arts palace was recruiting martial arts companions. The remuneration is very attractive, one tael of silver a day for a bronze medal sparring partner, twelve taels a day for a silver medal sparring partner, and even one tael a day for a gold medal sparring partner.
The so-called partner training is naturally to accompany others to practice martial arts and help them improve their actual combat experience. In other words, others can hit you at will, and you can fight back, but you can't hurt the other party. This is the job of taking the initiative to be beaten.
Jiang Yi's strength is not high, even if he wanted to go in and get beaten, he would be a bronze medal sparring partner at most. A tael of silver a day would not help him who owed a huge debt of ten taels of Zijin, so he naturally didn't bother to go in and waste time.
Hearing the surrounding audience talking about it solved a doubt in Jiang Yi's heart—a few months later, it was said that a university would come to Tianyu City to enroll students, so all the top princes and ladies in the city entered the Martial Hall to practice in seclusion. Want to do well in the admissions competition to get into that college. With so many top young masters and ladies entering the Martial Palace to practice, there is naturally a shortage of training partners...
"Go back to practice!"
Jiang Yi, a well-known graduate school, was not interested at all, because it was out of reach for him. As for the gossip about the top young lady in the city, he was not curious at all, so he turned around and walked to the Jiang family compound.
but!
Just turning around, he was attracted by the conversation of two young warriors.
"One tael of purple gold a day! One tael of purple gold can make you play with an oiran in Fengyue Tower for ten days and ten nights, but unfortunately I'm not good at martial arts, otherwise I must go in and get a gold medal to accompany me to practice and play."
"Come on, although the two sides sealed the Yuanli during the sparring battle, which of the young masters and ladies in the group is not above the fifth or sixth level of the Cauldron Casting Realm? Even if you don't use Yuanli, you can easily beat you to death with your reaction speed and martial skills. Pig head. Yesterday, my third-level cousin of the Cauldron Casting Realm went to practice with him for a day, but finally crawled out. He is still recovering from his injuries at home. Those young masters and young ladies are too ruthless. It’s not easy to make money... "
"Seal Yuanli to practice?"
Jiang Yi's mind moved, if the two sides don't use Yuanli, only rely on reaction speed and martial skills. He can increase his eyesight by relying on his black power, which can increase his reaction speed several times. Maybe he can play with a gold medal sparring partner in it?
Without the blessing of Yuanli, no matter how fast the reaction speed of those young masters and ladies is, how fast can they go? In martial arts competition, who is afraid of whom?
"A tael of purple gold a day? Fight hard, go and try!"
The more Jiang Yi thought about it, the more his heart became more and more excited. If he really couldn't do it, he would just be beaten up. After pondering for a while, he gritted his teeth and walked towards the side door of the Martial Palace.
