Siheyuan, my new life

After reaching the third level of the "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" and the "Bronze Skin and Iron Bones Realm", Lin Yu began to prepare for formal Qi training. He did not choose to enter the Qiankun Tower for training, but planned to take steady steps in the blessed land of the cave to consolidate his foundation. After all, he had plenty of time now and did not need to rush for success. Only when the foundation was solid could future training be smoother.

At this time, Lin Yu was sitting solemnly on the Chaos Lotus Platform, with low-grade spirit stones of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth piled around him. If ordinary cultivators in the cultivation world saw this scene, they would probably cry out of jealousy. When ordinary cultivators practice, they usually hold a spirit stone in each hand, for fear of wasting even the slightest bit. After all, for ordinary cultivators, every spirit stone is hard-earned.

Only the direct descendants of large sects and large cultivation families have sufficient resources for cultivation. However, rare treasures like the Chaos Lotus Platform used to assist in cultivation are unheard of or seen even by the top cultivation families and large sects.

Zhou Tian, ​​Zhou Di and ten other puppets all sat cross-legged around the Chaos Lotus Platform, watching their master with extremely serious expressions.

This was the master's first time to practice Qi training, and everyone took the initiative to protect the master under the leadership of Zhou Tian. Obviously, as they comprehended the visualization diagram day after day, these puppets had become more and more proactive, and even Zhou Tian and Zhou Di, who had the highest cultivation, had recovered some of their previous memories.

Zhou Tian felt inexplicably sad about his soul being refined into a puppet after his death, but he was also extremely grateful. If he had not met Lin Yu, a master who treated them as his confidants, he was afraid that the final fate of these puppets would be to be tools, until their souls were destroyed after being squeezed dry of the last bit of their usefulness by the master.

Zhou Tian and Zhou Di both knew that their master was simple in nature and had no experience at all. If it were someone else in the cultivation world, they would never allow their puppets to comprehend the visualization diagram. After all, no one knew what the souls that made the puppets were like in their lifetime. Once someone with a vicious heart recovered his memory of his previous life, who could guarantee that he would not do anything to hurt his master? This was also the disadvantage of Lin Yu not having a master to guide him. If Master Qinglian was here, she would never allow Lin Yu to let the puppets comprehend the visualization diagram.

The first thing Zhou Tian did after recovering some of his memories from his past life was to swear an oath with his heart of Tao that he would never betray his young master Lin Yu for the rest of his life. And when he realized that Zhou Di had also recovered some of his memories from his past life, he asked him to make the same oath as well.

Zhou Di did not hesitate at all for Zhou Tian's decision. After he swore an oath, he proposed to Zhou Tian that the two of them should closely monitor all puppets in the future. Once a puppet with restored memory is found, it will be asked to swear the Dao Heart Oath immediately. Otherwise, they will directly join forces to eliminate it to prevent future troubles and never let the master be in danger. Zhou Tian also directly agreed to his suggestion. After all, the safety of the master Lin Yu is the most important thing.

Our classmate Lin Yu, a rookie in cultivation, doesn't know yet that due to his sudden impulse to let the puppet comprehend the visualization diagram, he almost brought himself into an irretrievable situation. If Zhou Tian, ​​who was the first to recover some of his past life memories, had evil intentions, he would probably be in a dangerous situation at this moment.

In fact, Zhou Tian and Zhou Di should also feel fortunate. If they really wanted to do something that was not in the interests of their master Lin Yu, they would be wiped out by Qing Lian, who had been paying attention to his beloved disciple. Besides, did they really think that the Nine Dragon Crown in Lin Yu's sea of ​​consciousness was just a decoration? The counterattack method set by Qing Lian on it was a full-strength attack from her, an ancient saint. I believe that no one in this universe can easily take on this counterattack.

Even the Taoist Yuxu, the great Dao of heaven and earth in this universe, would keep an eye on Lin Yu's situation from time to time. After all, that visualization diagram was drawn by Taoist Yuxu. When someone comprehended the visualization diagram, Taoist Yuxu would immediately notice it. He did not stop Lin Yu from letting the puppets comprehend the visualization diagram. Both this visualization diagram and the ten puppets with cultivation above the Saint level were his work. How could he let Lin Yu, the younger generation on whom he and Qinglian placed their hopes, get into trouble?

Someone once said that ignorant people are the happiest people. Now the happiest classmate Lin Yu has begun to practice the "Green Lotus Technique". Strands of light of various colors visible to the naked eye fly out from the five-element spirit stones and pour into Lin Yu's body.

Lin Yu endured the tingling pain in his meridians and kept practicing the "Green Lotus Sutra" mental method, trying to absorb and refine the spiritual energy that flowed into his body. Compared with the pain he suffered during the previous body training, this kind of tingling was just a piece of cake. Lin Yu continued to practice without distraction.

As time passed, the five types of low-grade spirit stones originally placed on the Chaos Lotus Platform gradually lost their original luster and slowly turned into small stones. The puppets, who had already had a clear division of labor in advance, immediately took out the spirit stones from the Qiankun bags they carried with them and quickly replaced those that had been almost consumed. As for the remaining spiritual power in them, they didn't care at all. Anyway, the master had personally dug up a lot of such low-grade spirit stones in the past few days, and no one cared about the specific number. Anyway, it was enough for the master to squander. As the master's cultivation level improved in the future, the remaining low-grade spirit stones would not only be thrown in the warehouse to gather dust, but more would be sent to the spiritual grass garden as nutrients for the spiritual herbs.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but with an imperceptible sound, Lin Yu suddenly felt his whole body tremble, and an indescribable feeling of comfort almost made him groan. He quickly gathered his mind and continued to practice the "Qing Lian Jue" mental method. After a big cycle, he let out a deep breath and stood up, and the first level of Qi refining was completed.

Lin Yu did not continue to break through in one go. He had already thought about it. He wanted to polish each small realm to perfection before continuing to break through. He would never blindly pursue high realms to avoid causing an unstable foundation.

Seeing that Lin Yu had successfully reached the first level of Qi Refining, Zhou Tian and others stood up and clasped their fists to congratulate him. Lin Yu waved his hands indifferently. In front of these guys, what was the difference between him, a little cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining, and a toddler who was just learning to walk?

After having another barbecue meal and drinking a glass of Biluomen in the rest area, Lin Yu simply washed up, changed his clothes and returned to the bedroom of Villa No. 12. He looked at the time and it was only a little after ten thirty in the morning. It was a bit early to go to the canteen. He walked down the stairs and sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette, picked up the newspaper on the coffee table and began to read.

At 11:10 am, Lin Yu walked out of Villa No. 12 carrying a bottle of John Bull whiskey, and greeted several "patients" who were walking to the canteen. During this period, as they often drank and chatted in the canteen, everyone became familiar with each other, and they really recognized Lin Yu as their little brother.

These military leaders are all veterans who have participated in the revolution for decades. Which one of them is not an outstanding warrior with many merits? Whether in terms of seniority or merits, Lin Yu is not qualified to be compared with them.

At first, everyone was just curious and wanted to learn about the real situation of the Northern Dynasty battlefield through Lin Yu, a person who experienced it firsthand. But as time went by, everyone was surprised to find that this young man was really knowledgeable and talented. He had his own unique insights on many topics discussed by everyone, and many of his ideas were very novel, which inspired everyone.

What these veterans like most is that Lin Yu is open-minded and generous. Every time they get together, Lin Yu will take out some of the Bald Eagle Alliance's good cigarettes and wines. As for rare items such as coffee and chocolate, they are very popular with everyone. After all, these big guys already have children and grandchildren. Giving these rare things to their own children can also make the younger generation happy.

You have to know that these veteran generals in the army who have been on the battlefield for a long time have developed the habit of smoking and drinking over the years. In the past, they relied on captured spoils from the small towns and the skinheads to fill their stomachs, and usually they could only roll up cannon barrels to satisfy their craving for cigarettes.

Although there is a certain amount of special Zhonghua cigarettes available every month, compared with Bald Eagle's Camel cigarettes, the latter is more likely to whet everyone's appetite. After all, scarcity makes things valuable. Zhonghua cigarettes are available every month, but Bald Eagle's Camel cigarettes are really rare nowadays.

Recently, these people have been smoking Camel cigarettes all the time, but no one wants to take advantage of the younger brother, so they all exchange their special supply Zhonghua cigarettes with Lin Yu for Bald Eagle Camel cigarettes.

In Lin Yu's palace storehouse, there were more than a dozen bags used to store the military supplies of the Bald Eagle coalition. One of them was specifically for tobacco and alcohol, and the various tobacco and alcohol in it were piled up into a small mountain. Think about it, after all, Zhou Hong and Zhou Huang cleaned up the logistics base of the Bald Eagle army of more than one million in one go, and the various military supplies were simply an astronomical number.

Although he had so many things in his hands, he couldn't just create them out of thin air, right? It was even more impossible to deliver them in large quantities without restraint. In order to conceal his tracks, Lin Yu asked Zhou Hong and Zhou Huang to act as "deliverymen". At the beginning of each month, the two disguised men would drive a jeep and deliver cigarettes, alcohol and other items to the guard room of the sanatorium in the name of Lin Yu or his comrades. In this way, everyone knew where the cigarettes and alcohol in Lin Yu's hands came from.

For these veterans, giving away captured materials is commonplace, and they often do so. Outsiders simply cannot understand the friendship between comrades in the army, but as veterans who have participated in the revolution for decades, they have experienced too many separations and deaths, and they cherish the friendship between comrades even more.
