Longevity starts with strengthening the internal organs

"The second thing that opened was actually the heart..."

Zhao Ya was a little surprised.

He originally thought that the next thing to open after the stomach was unlocked would be the spleen.

After all, the spleen and stomach are connected!

But I didn't expect that what was opened would be the heart.

It seems that the opening of the internal organs is not in sequence, but has its own inner meaning.

However, Zhao Ya was also very happy to be able to start the progress of unlocking the heart.

After all, the heart is an official of the monarch, and his position is extremely important.

If it can be successfully unlocked, it will be extremely helpful to Zhao Ya.

It's a pity that all the money I got from the Black Snake Gang has been spent. Otherwise, buying some dried earthworm meat can speed up the unlocking process.

The reason why Zhao Ya was able to make such great progress in just three months was first of all due to the abundant supply of earthworm jerky.

During this period, in addition to basic meals, Zhao Ya replaced the remaining meat with earthworm jerky.

The results are immediate, but the cost is also expensive.

In just three months, Zhao Ya spent more than three hundred taels of silver. This price made Zhao Ya feel heartbroken.

No wonder ordinary people in this world have trouble getting ahead in martial arts.

Not to mention anything else, just the meals during cultivation are a huge expense, and most people simply cannot afford it.

Where should I go next to get some more money?

Zhao Ya fell into deep thought.

"Brother Xiao Ya, it's cold outside. After practice, hurry inside and be careful not to get cold again." Zhao Ya came back to his senses and saw Tang Zui'er looking at him with concern on his face, and couldn't help but smile.

"Don't worry, the mere wind and cold can't do anything to me."

Having said that, Zhao Ya turned around and entered the house.

It was already the twelfth lunar month of winter, but there was a fire burning in the house, so it was very warm.

The house was also kept very clean and tidy, even the pot lids were scrubbed spotlessly.

Zhao Ya couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that there really needs to be a girl in the family.

Not to mention anything else, in the past few months, Tang Zui'er had tidied everything inside and out, which made Zhao Ya feel quite comfortable.

"Brother Xiaoya, have a cup of tea."

Tang Zui'er brought over a bowl of hot tea.

This is naturally not good tea, but the leftover tea residue from the tea shop, and the price is very cheap.

After Tang Zui'er bought it, he ground some broken rice, stir-fried it until fragrant, and then brewed it with tea leaves to make fragrant rice tea.

Zhao Ya took a sip and felt the aroma of rice mixed with the aroma of tea. It tasted very good.

"Well, it tastes delicious!"

A simple compliment made Tang Zuier's face light up and she smiled brightly.

Zhao Ya suddenly thought of something and took out a piece of silver from his pocket.

"This is the monthly salary paid today. The Chinese New Year will be here in a month. You might want to buy some New Year's goods."

"I won't need so much, and the money you gave me last time hasn't been spent yet. I'll save it for you to buy the dried meat." Tang Zui'er said.

"Take it. After buying the New Year's goods, you can buy some new clothes. Your current clothes are a bit too short." Zhao Ya said.

Tang Zui'er's face turned red to the roots of her ears.

In the past few months, she had been eating well with Zhao Ya. Every meal had meat and vegetables, so Tang Zui'er not only grew taller, but also gained a little weight.

The pointed chin has become rounded.

As a result, Tang Zui'er's previous clothes were indeed a bit ill-fitting.

"Actually, it's not necessary. I'll just buy some cloth and then take apart the clothes and change them." Tang Zui'er said in a voice as loud as a mosquito.

"Forget it, your clothes are all worn out, it's time to buy some new ones."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ya smiled.

"You don't need to care too much about money. Now I am a tour operator of Changlong Escort Agency. My monthly salary of five taels of silver is enough to support you."

After hearing the last sentence of "support yourself", Tang Zui'er's face was so red that he was about to bleed, but there was a deep joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

"Well, then I'll buy it in two days, and I'll get you some foot wash."

Tang Zui'er excitedly brought a basin of hot water, and regardless of Zhao Ya's dissuasion, he squatted down and washed Zhao Ya's feet.

In desperation, Zhao Ya had no choice but to smile, and then let her do what she did.

After washing, Zhao Ya was getting ready to go to bed when Tang Zui'er suddenly said.

"Brother Xiaoya!"

"Um?"

"You're sleeping in the outhouse. Is it cold?"

"It's not cold. Brother Xiaoya and I are immune to the cold and heat now, so this little bit of cold wind is nothing." Zhao Ya said very naturally.

"Oh." Tang Zui'er lowered his head and walked towards the back room.

But just when she was about to lift the curtain, she suddenly said in a low voice: "Actually... the fire pit in the house is quite big, and it can sleep two people."

"Huh? What did you say, Zui'er?"

"Ah, it's nothing. I'm going to bed."

Tang Zui'er opened the curtain and ran away.

Zhao Ya looked at her back and smiled faintly.

With Zhao Ya's current hearing ability, how could he not hear clearly what Tang Zui'er just said.

It would be a lie to say that I am not moved.

You must know that Tang Zui'er was born with beauty. When she was in the Tang family, she didn't eat or drink well, but she still had outstanding looks.

Now after several months of nursing, the girl has become even more beautiful.

Such a beautiful girl took the initiative to invite him to sleep in the back room, even though Zhao Ya was a person of two generations, he couldn't help but be a little moved.

But he finally held back.

Because this is the critical stage of cultivation, and we are about to sprint towards the completion of Yi Jin.

Although practicing martial arts does not require abstinence, Zhao Ya decided to endure it in order to speed up the progress.

After all, in this chaotic world, only after Yi Jin has achieved great success and has become a true master of the second level, can he be considered to have the power to protect himself.

A night of silence.

The next day, Zhao Ya had breakfast early and then went to Changlong Escort Agency.

As the New Year is approaching, the affairs of the escort agency have become busy.

All major businesses have to clear their accounts at this time, so large sums of gold and silver are exchanged very frequently, which require escorts by escorts.

During this period of time, Zhao Ya had sent several escorts to surrounding towns, but they were mostly short trips on the same day, which was very easy.

But today's mission has changed.

"This time we are escorting a group of escorts from Hongjiayin in the inner city. The destination is Hekou Town, three hundred miles away. The round trip will take at least three or four days. Fortunately, it is basically official roads, and the forces along the way are also We are familiar with each other, but we still cannot take it lightly."

"After all, the New Year is approaching, and the bandits also want to celebrate the New Year."

Luo Qiang explained to Wei Yu, Zhao Ya and others.

This time, he was still the escort leader. At the same time, because the goods were valuable, all the escorts this time were experts from the escort agency.

Zhao Ya is naturally among them.

"Any questions?" Luo Qiang asked.

No one spoke.

They are all veterans who have been escorts several times, so naturally they will not know everything like the first time.

"Okay, then pack your things and get ready to go."
