Martial Arts Domination: Start with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique-Chapter 31 - Government Office Takes Action, Dispatching Troops to Suppress Bandits!

“They want you to eat first.”

Qi Yan understood the children’s intention and immediately spoke up.

The children were somewhat afraid to speak directly to him after seeing Qin Zheng reach out.

Qin Zheng chuckled, picked up his chopsticks, and grabbed a piece of beef to put in his mouth, then said, “Come on, eat up.”

Seeing Qin Zheng eat first, the children once again turned their eyes to Qi Yan.

Qi Yan smiled gently, also picked up a small piece of meat, and then said, “It’s hot, remember to eat slowly.”

The children’s eyes lit up and they quickly began to pick the meat from the hot, steaming pot in front of them.

For a moment, the scent of meat spread throughout the old temple and the steam surged.

Qin Zheng had not expected that Qi Yan’s cooking skills were actually quite good.

Since arriving, he had not had a meal as delicious as this, and he inevitably ate a bit more than usual.

Fortunately, he had brought enough meat, and he had controlled himself somewhat.

Otherwise, with his appetite after practicing martial arts, if he had let himself go, there wouldn’t have been any meat left for the others.

The meat pot meal went on for a long time, and even though the children’s bellies were visibly full, they were still licking their tongues, clearly wanting more.

Qin Zheng also put down his bowl and chopsticks satisfied.

Even if the children craved more meat, given their age and size, they could not eat much.

A woman like Qi Yan couldn’t eat much either.

So most of the pot of meat had ended up in his stomach.

After finishing the meal, he felt a surge of heat within his body and his blood circulation sped up considerably.

Qin Zheng immediately stood up, turned to Qi Yan, and said, “You clean up, I’ll go practice some techniques to aid digestion.”

Eating meat was the perfect time to circulate qi and blood!

Qi Yan nodded repeatedly and responded, “Don’t worry, Brother Qin, I’ll clean up everything.”

Qin Zheng then turned around and went to the open space in front of the temple.

He positioned himself properly, calmed his breath, and concentrated his mind, and the thirteen movements of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique emerged in his mind.

Qin Zheng then moved, and with a swooshing sound, he began performing the Dragon Elephant Prajna Technique, circulating the vital energy throughout his body.

He could feel that the qi and blood in his body were no longer merging into his skin but were gradually seeping into his flesh.

This meant that he was about to complete the First Major Pass and step into the Second Major Pass, the Flesh Refining Realm!

As for practicing martial arts in the open space in front of the temple and circulating qi and blood, he wasn’t worried about anyone learning it.

These were only the basic movements, not the actual techniques of Martial Arts; ordinary people wouldn’t benefit much from practicing them, at most it would just loosen their limbs.

Thus, in the open space in front of the temple, Qin Zheng circulated the vital energy throughout his body, gradually strengthening his inner physique.

The children sat at the entrance of the temple, curiously watching Qin Zheng.

Inside the temple, Qi Yan and some of the older children were cleaning up the aftermath of the meal.

It was only lunch, and they still had to prepare for dinner later.

As Qi Yan cleaned up, her gaze occasionally drifted towards that figure on the open space.

She felt as if she had returned to her old home, and the person on the open space was like her brother, giving her a solid sense of security.

But…

Compared to her brother, there seemed to be some differences.

In Qi Yan’s eyes, a trace of imperceptible tenderness flickered.

As time slowly passed, half an hour later, Qin Zheng felt that the blood energy stimulated within his body had reached its limit.

Therefore, he no longer continued to forcefully stimulate and transport it, but slowly ended his practice, allowing the blood energy throughout his body to return to calm.

Exhaling deeply!

He then heavily breathed out a breath of turbid air.

Instantly, it was as if a light breeze had brushed over the ground.

In a few more days, he should be able to break through the Skin Refinement Realm and advance to the Flesh Refining Realm.

Thinking this, Qin Zheng’s mood also improved slightly.

Advancing to the Flesh Refining Realm meant that his body’s internal strength would increase, and the upper limit of force it could withstand would also increase.

He would then be able to exert even greater power.

“Brother Qin, have some water.”

At that moment, a voice sounded beside him.

It was Qi Yan, holding a bowl of water and walking up to him.

Qin Zheng took the bowl, thanked her, and then drank it all in one gulp.

At that moment, his body was exceedingly hot, and after consuming a bowl of cool water, he felt much more comfortable.

“Take care of these children for me, I’ll go out and check the situation.”

Qin Zheng handed the bowl back to Qi Yan and spoke at the same time.

He had already informed her about the bandit issue.

After speaking, Qin Zheng wrapped the Ghost Head Greatsword in coarse cloth and slung it over his shoulder, striding out of the dilapidated temple.

Once outside, a trace of hesitation appeared in his eyes.

However, moments later, Qin Zheng sighed and continued walking toward the south of the city.

Having just arrived in this world, where times were perilous and he had yet to experience the vastness of martial arts, it was not the time for love and romance.

He was just a bit hesitant about how to discourage Qi Yan from her feelings.

Qin Zheng had no experience in such matters and could only pretend not to know for now.

Pushing this matter aside, Qin Zheng collected his thoughts and began to pay attention to the activities inside the city.

He noticed that the streets were busier now compared to the morning.

On both sides of the road, some stalls had been set up again.

As he passed a tea house, he saw groups of people inside, talking about the bandits outside the city.

Thus, Qin Zheng entered quietly, paid two wen coins, found a spot, and sat down.

At the same time, he began to listen carefully to the discussions of these people.

In the teahouse, the main speaker was a chubby man who proudly said, “This information is absolutely true!”

“The troops stationed outside the city have already been dispatched to Tongguan Town to suppress the bandits, and the government office has sent a good number of constables to accompany them.”

“With Colonel Ji and Inspector Xu, two great masters, leading the effort, those bandits certainly won’t stir up much trouble.

Everyone can be at ease!”

Someone around asked, “Mr.

Qiu, we didn’t know these details, where did you get this information?”

The chubby man, with a more triumphant expression, glanced around at the civilians and said pompously, “My youngest daughter joined the government office last month as a noble consort.”

“It was she who informed me of this news.”

As soon as these words were uttered, a continuous chorus of congratulations erupted from those around.

“Congratulations Mr.

Qiu, with your daughter entering the government office and transforming into a phoenix, your coming days will surely be prosperous.”

“Congratulations Mr.

Qiu, best wishes to Mr.

Qiu…”

“….”

Qin Zheng didn’t listen to the rest and left the teahouse directly.

It appeared that Black Goose City was not inactive, taking the initiative to suppress bandits instead of passively waiting for them to attack the city.

With this in mind, Qin Zheng felt somewhat relieved.

At that moment, he faintly heard something about ‘small eighteen’ or the like.
