Successfully mastering Raging Bull Fist is not difficult at all.
Thinking this, he began cultivating again.
It wasn't until the sky was about to darken that Lin Sheng stopped.
At this moment, he could already feel that his control over the qi and blood within his body had improved somewhat compared to before.
"At this rate, I can successfully master it in at most five days. If I'm lucky, I might be able to successfully activate the qi and blood within my body in three days."
He looked up at the dim yellow sky, and without realizing it, more than an hour had already passed.
"I didn't expect I would Cultivate for so long."
Before he integrated the Rock Sheep, let alone cultivating for more than an hour, it would have been good if he could have persisted for the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
After a long period of cultivation, he was also a bit more tired at this moment, but it was still within his tolerance.
It wasn't that he didn't want to continue practicing, but because he was interrupted by the rumbling of his stomach, followed by a strong feeling of hunger.
Although the Rock Sheep was integrated, his stamina had grown considerably, but what was consumed was still his own energy.
After this round of cultivation, the dinner he had eaten at the Slaughterhouse had long been completely digested.
Practicing martial arts, practicing martial arts, has been "poor scholar, rich martial artist" since ancient times. Practicing martial arts consumes a lot of resources. Poor families who don't eat enough or wear warm clothes have weaker Physiques and foundations than others from birth, so even those with decent talent find it difficult to achieve anything in such an environment.
Lin Sheng naturally understood this principle. In such an ancient society, especially in a world with true martial arts, which belongs to extraordinary power, the demand for resources is even greater.
However, this Raging Bull Fist is only among the lowest-tier martial arts, so the consumption for mastering it is not considered very large.
Lin Sheng returned to his room and took out his wages.
He had been in Zhenshan Tower for only about two months but had received wages once.
Looking at the seventy copper coins in his hand, his monthly wage for entering Zhenshan Tower was eighty copper coins.
Adding in his daily expenses and what he gave to his parents, his current savings were only seventy copper coins.
Roughly two or three copper coins per catty of brown rice, his monthly wage could buy nearly forty catties of brown rice.
In addition, the Slaughterhouse provided two meals at noon, and his Brother also basically worked at the Sun Family on weekdays and rarely came home, so his monthly wage, if he was frugal, was enough for his parents' living expenses.
However, Xie Guilan and Lin Hong rarely asked for his money, saying he should save it to marry a wife.
Xie Guilan took on some needlework and washing odd jobs outside, while his father, Lin Hong, although injured in the leg and inconvenient to move, basically didn't stay at home on weekdays but went out to set up a stall on the street to sell some miscellaneous items, which was enough to barely support himself.
Feeling his progress in Raging Bull Fist after integrating the Rock Sheep, Lin Sheng understood that joining the Hunting Beast Hall could be considered a sure thing.
So he didn't need to live as cautiously as before. He went to the street, directly picked and chose at the butcher shop, and bought 5 catties of pig offal.
Compared to lean meat, the price of offal is much cheaper, and it's still meat, which can supplement his energy consumption.
After some bargaining, five catties of offal ultimately cost Lin Sheng eighteen copper coins.
This was the first time he had been so extravagant, but everything was for cultivation, and these expenses were necessary.
He circled the butcher shop again, wanting to see if there were any other parts worth buying.
"Since the Rock Sheep can be integrated, then this wild boar can naturally also be integrated, it's just a pity I don't have what I want..."
Lin Sheng circled around and found that most of the meat in the butcher shop was wild boar meat, with some Rock Sheep meat remaining.
"Little Brother Lin, is there anything else you want?"
At this moment, the butcher in the shop saw that Lin Sheng hadn't left yet and immediately asked with a smile.
"Shopkeeper, do you happen to sell beef here?"
"Beef!?"
Hearing Lin Sheng's words, the butcher was startled and said with a frown.
"Beef is a rare commodity here. If Little Brother Lin wants beef, it's unlikely you can buy it on Waguan Street."
"Can you get bull blood then?"
Regarding the shopkeeper's words, Lin Sheng seemed to have anticipated it and asked directly.
"Bull blood?" The butcher scratched his head, looking a bit surprised, but didn't think too much about it. After pondering for a while, he finally spoke.
"Bull blood is much simpler. When I go to get goods these two days, I can keep an eye out for you. How much do you want?"
"I want five catties, no, ten catties."
"For ten catties, the non-negotiable price is twenty-five copper coins."
The shopkeeper directly quoted the price.
Hearing this price, Lin Sheng frowned slightly.
As if seeing his hesitation, the butcher said with a chuckle.
"Little Brother Lin, I know this price is a bit expensive, but if we meat sellers buy less, they might not sell to us, and bull blood isn't easy to sell on Waguan Street, so there's naturally a bit of a premium."
"Alright, I'll take it at your price."
Lin Sheng finally nodded and then left a deposit of 5 copper coins.
Just now, when cultivating Raging Bull Fist at home, he had a guess.
Since the Rock Sheep could be integrated, why not directly choose a bull to integrate into himself?
After all, Raging Bull Fist, Raging Bull Fist, has the word 'bull' in it, and Tian Hu had also mentioned it when he taught them this martial art before.
This Raging Bull Fist was created by a martial arts Genius in ancient times by observing wild bulls grappling.
Since it was created by observing wild bulls, it is likely that choosing a bovine creature for integration would be the most suitable for cultivating Raging Bull Fist.
However, this was just his guess. Whether it was as he imagined would only be known after trying it himself.
Returning home, Lin Hong and Xie Guilan had already returned.
Seeing the pig offal Lin Sheng was holding, Xie Guilan couldn't help but speak.
"A Sheng, why did you go out and buy so much offal? You're wasting money again. If you keep doing this, when will you be able to marry a wife?"
Hearing his mother's nagging, Lin Sheng also felt helpless.
Getting married early was normal in ancient society. His Brother's marriage hadn't even been settled yet, but she was so concerned about him, the second child.
Thinking of this, he also understood why his Brother, Lin Miao, lived at the Sun Family and rarely came home. It seemed the fear of being urged to marry wasn't just in his previous life; it still existed now.
"Alright, what are you talking so much for? A Sheng is practicing martial arts now, so his consumption is naturally not like before, and A Sheng isn't a child anymore. Don't go on and on like this."
In the end, it was Lin Hong who spoke, finally stopping Xie Guilan's rambling.
Xie Guilan stepped forward, took the pig offal from Lin Sheng's hand, and began to light the fire and cook.
Of the five catties of pig offal, Lin Sheng himself directly ate four catties.
Such a large appetite made both his parents a bit stunned.
Lin Sheng, covering his stomach, went outside the courtyard and continued to strike while the iron was hot, resuming cultivation.
He didn't know if it was his imagination, but Lin Sheng felt that his digestive ability seemed to be much stronger than before.
The feeling of bloated fullness in his stomach subsided in just the time it takes an incense stick to burn.
Also recalling that his strength had also increased somewhat after integrating, he gained a little more understanding of this Shan Hai Secret Scroll.
