Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

Chapter 44 There is no more evil martial art than this!

Nanxingfang.

Dingsi Street.

Ning Yan walked on the street, looking around.

Compared with the past, the streets today are deserted and obviously much more depressed.

Several shops on the roadside have closed down.

Some stalls that were often seen in the past are now empty.

As for the noisy children, smiling girls, and old people with hard-working faces, most of them have disappeared.

On the contrary, there were many more strong and powerful warriors wherever one looked.

On the street, several warriors in black were holding a portrait of a young girl and asking something from a cosmetics shop.

The proprietress of the cosmetics shop shook her head in panic.

After asking several questions, the warriors did not make things difficult for her and hurried away with the portrait.

Ning Yan took a closer look at the word "Wu" written in capital letters on the backs of those people's clothes.

These are all disciples of the Weiwu Academy.

Considering their actions just now, they must be on a mission.

Weiwu Academy has a unique task system. The warriors under its command accumulate points by completing tasks, and then use the points to exchange for various treasures such as skills, martial arts, weapons, etc.

Therefore, people often go to Weiwuyuan to post tasks.

I guess the portrait just now was given by the girl’s family.

I don’t know how many people in this city are missing like the girl.

Ning Yan sighed lightly, glanced at a dirty pink handkerchief in the alley, and strode forward.

Soon he arrived at Renxin Pharmacy.

Ning Yan opened the gray curtain and came to the long counter. Without any delay, he said directly to the shopkeeper who was wearing a blue double-breasted shirt:

"Shopkeeper Li, give me three plants of Forgiveness Grass."

Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Li immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"We no longer have the herb of forgiveness in our store."

"Not even one?"

"Not a single one."

Shopkeeper Li sighed and said:

"To be honest, the whole city's Forgiveness Grass is supplied by the Zhou family. The Zhou family had a big fight with the Chen family some time ago, and the supply of Forgiveness Grass has been cut off a long time ago. Let alone our pharmacy, even if you change to another store, the result will be the same. This stuff was sold out a few days ago."

Ning Yan's brows suddenly frowned slightly. According to his deduction, Shuxincao is the fastest-acting one among the three external medicines.

Basically, as long as he gets the Heart-forgiveness Grass, he can practice the new martial arts on the same day.

But now there is no forgiveness grass.

Then we can only settle for the next best thing——

"Give me half a pound of purple heart lotus."

"The Purple Heart Lotus is gone too."

"What did you say?"

Looking at Ning Yan who was frowning, Shopkeeper Li said helplessly:

"The Purple Heart Lotus has nothing to do with the Zhou family. We transported this thing from the outside world. Now the trade routes are blocked and the transport convoy has been out of contact for almost a month. I'm afraid that all the Purple Heart Lotus in the entire county has been used up."

Ning Yan was immediately in pain:

"Then you can't have no herbs at all, right?"

Shopkeeper Li sighed and said:
“In fact, due to the blockage of trade routes, almost 30% of the medicinal materials in the store are out of stock, and another 20% are about to run out.

It’s okay for some common medicinal herbs, there may be corresponding substitutes.

Many external medicines on the market that are used in conjunction with the practice of qigong are now experiencing shortages of raw materials.

I heard that there are many warriors who have acquired the skills but are unable to practice them.

If they delay any further, their progress in cultivation might even decline.”

When Ning Yan heard this, he could roughly sense the annoyance that those warriors were feeling.

If he couldn't get the medicine and couldn't find the corresponding coordination method, the practice of this new technique might be delayed.

Of course, compared to those people, he might be luckier.

Because as long as he continues to absorb a large amount of skills, he will be able to continue to deduce higher-level skills, which may even be stronger than the one he has deduced now.

For him, the lack of medicine is not an unsolvable problem.

With his unrivaled understanding in the world, he can find ways to create conditions even if there are none.

Of course, we are not at the point of desperation yet.

With the last glimmer of hope, he asked:
"Are there any more blood needle grass?"

"That's a lot."

Shopkeeper Li replied confidently.

Ning Yan heaved a sigh of relief:

"Well, give me thirty kilograms." Shopkeeper Li's face immediately became distorted:

"We only have two kilograms in stock..."

"Then why are you so arrogant? Hurry up and pack it up for me while I look for another place."

After running around the entire county, Ning Yan finally collected thirty kilograms of blood needle grass.

To be honest, if possible, he really didn't want to use blood needle grass to practice.

If you eat one pound of this stuff a day, it will take a month to achieve complete results.

On the other hand, the Forgiveness Grass can be cultivated on the same day.

Of course, Blood Needle Grass also has its advantages, that is, the process of taking effect is very gentle and there are no sequelae.

Compared with the herb of forgiveness, when taking the medicine, the internal organs will feel like they are burning, which is extremely painful.

But Ning Yan didn't care about this pain, he would rather save more time.

But now the only thing you can buy is blood needle grass, so there’s nothing much to say.

……

Four days passed in a flash.

At noon that day, Ning Yan took the cleaned blood needle grass and chewed it like a cow, swallowing it.

During this time, he had gotten used to the feeling of choking in his throat. He even vaguely felt a long-lost happiness from eating grass, just like when he was a child and picked wild vegetables on the roadside.

But after a brief moment of happiness, Ning Yan's face immediately fell again when he saw Old Li walking out of the house.

Then Old Li came over with a tray. On the tray were three large bowls, each bowl was full of food.

The bowl on the left contained cooked duck blood, the bowl in the middle contained fried clam meat, and the bowl on the far right contained a green liquid that reflected Ning Yan's face green.

He can accept duck blood.

Clam meat is also acceptable, you can even have another bowl.

But the problem is that this green moth is so damn hard to swallow!!

No wonder everyone says that "Three Blood Seal Body Kung Fu" is an evil Kung Fu.

Who could have imagined that one could practice martial arts by swallowing green moths?
There is no more evil martial art than this!

Ning Yan drank a large bowl of boiled green moth juice in one gulp, and then quickly ate the duck blood and clams.

Even after the last piece of clam meat fell into his stomach, he still felt nauseous from time to time.

Ning Yan had no time to waste and immediately sat down cross-legged to practice his skills.

Only after he had practiced the exercise twelve times did he let out a long sigh.

The contents of the stomach have been completely transformed through the practice of the exercises.

Although he could feel that he was almost done with the "Three Blood Seal Body Skill", the process was not really enjoyable, especially since there were still four more days to go.

Thinking of this, Ning Yan felt that he had no expectations for the days to come.

He looked at Old Li, whose expression was hard to describe, and said in a solemn voice:

"You've almost collected all the green moths, right? Do you want me to teach you this technique? It's very powerful."

Old Li immediately shook his head like a rattle:
"This technique looks too evil, you should teach me a more normal one, even if it has some weaknesses.

I don’t force it, I don’t force it at all.”

Looking at his timid expression, Ning Yan curled his lips and didn't bother to pay attention. He looked around and happened to see the "Li Yuan Beast Transformation Art" that had been thrown on the cabinet before. He picked it up and threw it to him.

Old Li took the technique and read it out loud with his eyes narrowed:

"The Secret of Bird Transformation?!"

"Huh? What did you say?"

Ning Yan's brows suddenly frowned:
"Isn't this the 'Li Yuan Beast Transformation Technique'?"

Old Li's face froze for a moment, then he became confident and righteous:
"Who doesn't know it's the 'Li Yuan Beast Transformation Technique'? I just misread it by accident."

Ning Yan's eyes quickly became dangerous:
"Did you see it wrong when you taught me before?"

Old Li immediately felt guilty.

Before he could explain, Ning Yan muttered to himself:
"It doesn't matter if I'm seeing things wrong. I've already mastered it. This power can't be fake."

"Yes, that's right!"

As Old Li spoke, he thought to himself that he would have to find someone to recognize the characters, and at least translate this book well, otherwise he would have no confidence in teaching if problems were found out.

At this moment, there was suddenly a sound of hurried footsteps outside, followed by a hurried knock on the door.

Old Li quickly put the "Li Yuan Beast Transformation Art" into his clothes, then walked over and opened the door.

A dark-faced woodcutter immediately appeared before his eyes.

Seeing Old Li and Ning Yan, he hurriedly said:

"Oh no! Lao Dai and his men were catching green moths in the forest and were kidnapped by the bandits from Qingyun Village!"

Old Li's expression changed drastically and he looked panicked.

Ning Yan slammed the table and stood up:

"How dare you, you bandit, rob my people?!"
