Siheyuan, my new life

The next morning, he got up on time at six o'clock, which was a habit he developed in the army. As usual, Lin Yu went out for a few laps of jogging, greeted several "fellow patients" who came out for morning exercise, and ran towards Villa No. 12.

Commander Han, who lived in Villa No. 8, looked at the young man walking away, shook his head slightly, sighed and said, "What a pity." A middle-aged soldier in his forties or fifties asked curiously, "Old Han, what do you mean?"

Commander Han raised his chin towards the receding figure and said, "Old Qian, you just moved in, many people don't know you. The young man just now is called Lin Yu, he is only 24 years old this year, the deputy chief of staff of a certain division of a certain army, he was injured some time ago and returned to China for treatment from the battlefield in North Korea, and he moved in three days later than me."

The middle-aged soldier smacked his lips and said, "He became the deputy chief of staff of a division at such a young age. It seems that he has a bright future. But the young man looks in good shape. Why did he live here? And what did you mean by what you said just now that it was a pity?"

Commander Han took out a Zhonghua cigarette and waited for the two to light it before continuing, "I was curious and asked about his situation. When Lin Yu first entered the Korean War, he was the deputy company commander. Because he was brave and good at thinking, he was awarded many times on the battlefield. In the second half of last year, he served as the battalion commander and was responsible for the defense of the most forward positions on the 38th parallel. This guy often led a small group of troops to raid and harass the positions of the Bald Eagle Coalition. At the beginning of this year, he flexibly used tunnel warfare and dug trenches directly under the enemy's nose. They were at most a dozen meters apart, and they were in a posture of dying together, forcing the Bald Eagle Coalition to be cautious and stop bombing the defensive positions. The General Front Committee was troubled by the long-range bombing of the Bald Eagle Coalition warships. You also know that there is a big gap between our army's weapons and equipment and the Bald Eagle Coalition. The enemy's bombing caused great losses to our army. After receiving the news of Lin Yu's success, they immediately sent people to inspect it. Once it is confirmed to be effective, they will be ready to promote it on the front line. The three military leaders were at When the front line was bombed by enemy planes during the inspection, Comrade Lin Yu, in order to protect the safety of the leaders, pushed the two leaders into the air-raid shelter at the critical moment, and then used his body to block another leader who fell. As the bomb exploded less than ten meters away, Comrade Lin Yu was seriously injured and unconscious. After being sent to the rear field hospital for emergency treatment, 27 shrapnel were removed from his back. Due to the impact of the explosion on his head at close range, there are still three blood clots in his skull. After returning to China, the experts of Union Hospital consulted that the risk of surgery was too great and the success rate was less than 30%. In the end, they could only recommend conservative treatment, hoping to rely on the body's own repair ability to slowly absorb and dissolve the blood clots in the skull. Since Lin Yu needed to rest in peace, the superiors arranged for him to recuperate here. "He sighed and said, "I learned from the expert who was responsible for treating Comrade Lin Yu that Comrade Lin Yu could no longer continue to serve in his current physical condition. Alas, it's a pity for a rising star!"

The middle-aged soldier called Lao Qian also sighed.

Lin Yu didn't know that after he left, two senior military officers would be discussing him. Out of respect for these seniors, Lin Yu did not arrange for Zhou Hong and others to monitor the "fellow patients" in the sanatorium.

When Lin Yu returned to Villa No. 12 to wash up, he noticed that his skin was faintly bronzed. According to the introduction of the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" in the classics, when the body surface begins to appear bronze, it means that the bronze skin and iron bones have been entered. According to the introduction in the classics, it usually takes three to five medicinal baths for a cultivator to enter. The reason why he reached this level after only one medicinal bath has a lot to do with the materials he used.

When ordinary cultivators take medicinal baths, they add spiritual herbs to the spiritual spring water, but Zhou Lin and others also add an extra drop of spiritual liquid. The value of this drop of spiritual liquid alone is hundreds of times more than other materials.

Spiritual fluid is produced from the best spiritual stone veins. It is said that there is a spiritual fluid pool in the center of each best spiritual stone vein, which is formed by the accumulation of the entire vein over the years. Every drop of spiritual fluid is extremely precious. The spiritual power contained in it can instantly make up for the consumption of high-level monks. It is generally used for retreat breakthroughs, tribulations, or emergency healing. Imagine two equally matched opponents fighting desperately. When everyone is exhausted and at the end of their rope, one of them suddenly swallows the spiritual fluid and is revived with full blood in an instant. The result is self-evident.

Since most of the top-grade spirit stone mines are controlled by large sects and large cultivation families, it is almost impossible for ordinary cultivators to obtain spirit liquids.

Lin Yu really had no shortage of rare resources like spiritual liquid. There were thousands of drops of spiritual liquid in the jade bottle that Zhou Tian was holding in his hand at that time. The lockers in the palace warehouse were almost full of jade bottles specially used to store spiritual liquid. Every once in a while, a puppet specifically responsible for collecting would enter the top-quality spiritual stone veins deep in the mountains to collect spiritual liquid.

Lin Yu looked at himself in the mirror carefully, and after confirming again and again that there were no obvious flaws, he walked out, had breakfast in the small cafeteria, washed his used dishes as usual, said hello to several "fellow patients" who were eating, and returned to Villa No. 12. He did not return to the paradise to practice immediately, but sat in the living room, lit a cigarette, and read the newspaper that the staff of the sanatorium had just delivered to him.

At 8:30, two doctors in white coats walked into the villa. One doctor was responsible for measuring blood pressure, body temperature, and asking about the patient's condition, while the other doctor was taking notes. This was the daily routine checkup of the medical center in the sanatorium. After the two doctors left, Lin Yu went upstairs to the bedroom, and then took Zhou Hong directly into the paradise.

Today, Lin Yu still had to continue the medicinal bath. After working in the mine last night, the breath in his body had completely calmed down. Ordinary monks would need some time to absorb and settle after each medicinal bath before they could continue the medicinal bath. After getting up this morning, Lin Yu had already noticed that the blood and qi in his body were running smoothly, which fully met the requirements of continuing the medicinal bath in the classics.

Lin Yu had considered this unusual situation, thinking that it might be related to his special physique and the spiritual liquid added to the medicinal bath materials. However, Lin Yu did not think too much about it. He asked Zhou Tian, ​​who was waiting at the palace gate, to examine him. After confirming that he could continue with the medicinal bath, he walked into the training room. In order to succeed in body refining as soon as possible, he could not waste any time.

Master Qinglian had reminded us before that it was a bit late for Lin Yu to start practicing now given his age.

In the world of cultivation, children's spiritual roots are usually tested when they are seven or eight years old, and disciples are selected from them based on their aptitude. After the children enter the world, there will be a special person responsible for teaching them some basic knowledge about cultivation, and then they will choose the cultivation method according to their respective situations.

The actual age of Lin Yu's body is already twenty-four years old. In the world of cultivation, even cultivators with average qualifications have reached high levels of Qi and body refining at this age. Some geniuses can reach the middle and late stages of foundation building, and there are even once-in-a-century prodigies who become Jindan cultivators.

Lin Yu chose to practice Qi, body and spirit refining at the same time, which requires him to put in more effort and sweat than other practitioners, and more importantly, more resources.

What Lin Yu lacked the least was resources. With the sufficient resources prepared by Master Qinglian, Lin Yu only needed to practice step by step. This alone made him worry-free.

The reason why Lin Yu chose to take a medicinal bath to refine his body first was to make up for the shortcomings of this body.

You have to know that the original owner had lived in an environment with almost no spiritual energy for more than 20 years. His body had never experienced the nourishment of spiritual energy before. In addition, he had been injured many times during his many years of military career, so his body was already in a state of deficiency.

If he wanted to achieve his long-cherished wish, he had to make up for his physical shortcomings first. This was why Master Qinglian chose to practice the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" for him. Although the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" was not the top-level physical training skill in Master Qinglian's hands, and this skill also had a drawback, that is, the more he practiced, the more precious and scarce the materials needed for the medicinal bath became. Therefore, many cultivators who practiced the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" gave up after reaching the "Bronze Skin and Iron Bones Realm", and those who could reach the "Ice Skin and Jade Bones Realm" were extremely rare. But what Lin Yu lacked the most was resources, and Master Qinglian even prepared thousands of sets of all the physical training materials for his beloved disciple in advance.

Zhou Tian and others had already prepared the medicinal bath according to yesterday's steps. Lin Yu waved his hand to signal them to continue to comprehend the visualization diagram, then he took off all his clothes and stepped into the jade barrel. There was that unforgettable pain again. While practicing the first level of the "Eight-Nine Profound Art" Lin Yu gritted his teeth and endured the pain all over his body.

After today's medicinal bath, Lin Yu simply wiped his body, changed into the training clothes he wore yesterday, and set off for the distant mountains. He planned to continue digging and mining spirit stone mines today to adapt to the changes in his body. However, he did not enter the mine cave from yesterday, but came to another low-grade spirit stone vein of earth, gold and water not far away.

Without wasting any time, Lin Yu swung the pickaxe and sweated profusely. After an hour and a half, he was so tired that his whole body was sore and he no longer had the strength to swing the pickaxe. The pickaxe that he could swing at will now seemed to be heavier than a thousand pounds. He threw the pickaxe away, gritted his teeth, and bent down to sort out the raw spirit stones.
