Paper Maker: This is the end of the Ming Dynasty in Liaozhai

Chapter 8 Inner Strength and Mind Method
Baishu Township is not far from the county seat of Yu County. The group arrived at Shangmanzigou Village on the edge of Xiaowutai Mountain at noon. After eating in the village, they left the carriage and horses in the village, and the group took a narrow path into the mountain. .

But after walking for a long time, Su Hao felt that he couldn't catch his breath, his whole body broke out in cold sweat, and his legs were weak. Although there were small trails made by the villagers to go up the mountain to collect firewood, Su Hao's body was weak after all. The deep mountains and old forests are still too reluctant.

Seeing Ding Xian and the four police officers in front of him, Su Hao showed envy. After he started to practice, he finally understood why Su An said that the paper man secret technique is not a good thing.

Because the paper figurine secret art is heresy, unlike the orthodox Taoist practice method, the Taoist inner alchemy method is aimed at longevity, even if you are a hundred years old, you can walk like flying, while the paper figurine secret art is completely used to squeeze your own energy and spirit. Magical power.

Few of the ancestors of the Su family lived past the age of 35. This is because his father and grandfather lived to be in their 30s after his great-grandfather obtained the Yangyuan Jue. Some ancestors of the Su family even died of illness on the couch at the age of 24. .

"disease!"

After pondering for a while, Su Hao waved his sleeves, and four paper figurines and a roofless sedan chair flew out of the sleeves. These are the necessary tools for the Su family to travel. The strength of these four paper figurines is not comparable to third-rate martial arts Poor, he has the strength of a thousand pounds, even if he is carried in the deep mountains and dense forests, he can walk like flying.

The next moment, the paper figurine and the sedan chair gradually grew in size, and after a while they became the size of ordinary people. Su Hao boarded the sedan chair.

Seeing this scene, Ding Xian and the police officers were not surprised. They had also accompanied Su An to kill evil magicians before. They had already seen the Su family's paper figurine technique.

Without Su Hao's burden, the group's forward speed increased greatly.

"Uncle Fu, can our Su family practice martial arts?"

On the sedan chair, Su Hao said solemnly, now that he has no fame and fame, he has to practice this paper man's secret art to keep the Su family's property, but this paper man's secret art will be short-lived if practiced for a long time. He didn't want to die young.

He has no way to get the inner alchemy method that is secreted by Taoism, and he dare not practice it even if he got it. Inheritance, he will wait to be hunted down to death.

However, it is not impossible for him to prolong his life and maintain his health. There are also many inner strength methods in martial arts that are born out of Taoism and have the effect of maintaining health, such as Wudang School and Shaolin Temple. Wu Tongxiu, there are both Taoists who practice inner alchemy, and some who practice inner strength and mind.

If you can obtain a Taoist inner strength method, it is not impossible to prolong your life and keep in good health. Compared with Taoist inheritance, the risk of planning this kind of inner strength method is much smaller. As long as you don’t attack a big faction like Wudang, it will not cause public anger .

Fu Bo, who had been hiding in Su Hao's sleeve, couldn't help being taken aback when he heard Su Hao's words, but soon guessed what Su Hao was thinking, and couldn't help but shook his head and said:
"Disaster!"

"The ancestors of your Su family also sent descendants to worship Huashan School before, and learned the inner strength and mental methods of the Huashan School. It is only the inner strength of the past ten years, and they cannot withstand the devastation of the paper figurine secret technique."

After a pause, Uncle Fu continued: "According to the speculation of your ancestors of the Su family, at least the internal strength cultivation at the level of a martial arts master can offset the loss of energy and energy caused by the secret art of paper figurines."

Hearing Fu Bo's words, Su Hao's expression was gloomy. Martial arts master, if he can cultivate to the level of a martial arts master, why should he practice the secret art of paper figurines.

At the beginning, Su An had practiced the secret art of paper figurines for nearly 20 years, but he was only able to defeat 200 people, but let alone a martial arts master, even a first-class master, Su An did not dare to say that he would be safe To get away, you must know that martial arts masters are also rare in the world.

Even those gifted disciples of the big schools of the rivers and lakes may not be able to reach the level of martial arts masters after decades of practice.

Even if he starts to practice now, it is still a question of whether he can reach the second-rate level of 60-year-old skill by the time of his death.

Thinking of this, Su Hao subconsciously looked at the Enlightenment System. If he could find a way to obtain enlightenment points, he might not be able to reach the level of a martial arts master within 20 years.

As for giving up practicing the secret art of paper figurines, Su Hao never thought about it. After traveling for two years, he has seen a lot of the days of those poor people in Yu County. Let him give up his current affluent life and go to the kind of life where three meals a day are unsustainable. Days, he would rather be short-lived!
The reason why the ancestors of the Su family would rather have a short life than to pass on the secret art of paper figurines is that they don't want to live a life with their faces facing the loess and their backs to the sky, and having three meals a day.

What's more, in the coming Ming Dynasty, natural disasters and man-made disasters will continue, refugees will be everywhere, and there will be no self-protection power. At that time, life will be worse than death. Maybe one day they will be boiled. You must know the tragedy of those people cannibalizing each other recorded in the history books It's not made up!
"Patriarch Su, this is where the first Orion disappeared."

After walking for nearly half an hour, Ding Xian suddenly stopped, pointed to the engraving on a big tree and said: "These hunters go into the mountain together, and after they part, they will leave marks on the places they pass by, just in case , this mark was left by that Orion, but the mark is gone here, so that Orion should have disappeared here."

After a pause, Ding Xian continued: "It's just that we and the hunters in the village searched the surrounding mountains and forests for ten miles, but we didn't find any traces."

"Leave it to me next."

Su Hao said to Fu Bo in his sleeve: "Fu Bo, please search the neighborhood."

Although Uncle Fu is a ghost, he should be afraid of the sun, but after so many years with the Su family, he has already become a ghost cultivator, and with the cover of a paper man, appearing in the sun for a short period of time does not have much impact.

"Okay, young master!"

Hearing that, Uncle Fu got out of Su Hao's sleeve, reduced to the size of a normal person, and then floated away, disappearing deep in the forest.

In less than half an hour, everyone saw Uncle Fu floating out from the depths of the forest.

Su Hao asked: "Fu Bo, how is the situation?"

"Master, I have searched all over the place for several miles, but I didn't find any resentment."

Fu Bo's paper face was expressionless: "The missing Orion should not have died, otherwise the unjustly killed person must be full of resentment, even if someone kills the unjust soul, this resentment will not dissipate in a few years."

"not dead?"

Hearing Uncle Fu's words, Ding Xian immediately beamed with joy. There are quite a few people who disappeared this time. If they can be found alive, it would be a great achievement. Maybe he can also take this opportunity to plan for the position of master.

Although the Ming Dynasty forbade subordinate officials to be officials, the county boss Bo and Dianshi, who were nine-rank and low-ranking officials, were mostly looked down upon by most of the people, and they were basically selected from the subordinate officials.

However, those Juren lords look down on them, and they are envious of these headhunters. No matter how capable a headhunter is, he is just an official.

If the magistrate of the county sees him unhappy, he may leave at any time, and the big gentry in the county also look down on him as a head catcher, but if he can be promoted to the boss, he can really be regarded as the number one person in Yu County.
