NOVEL NEXT Chapter 6: Prodigy
Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this:
"As long as I can marry a wife, I will be satisfied, but I don't dare to have such lofty ambitions like my senior brother."
Zhao Shan smiled and said:
"Junior brother understands that it is a good thing to be content with what you have."
Chen Yuan turned to ask:
"Senior brother, are we considered members of the Fuhu Gang or the Hundred Soldiers Hall?"
Zhao Shan said:
"You and I were accepted as disciples by our master, so naturally we are considered members of the Fuhu Gang, but those gray-clothed apprentices and handymen are just people from the Hundred Soldiers Hall in Leping County. It is difficult to join the Fuhu Gang."
Chen Yuan was surprised and said:
"Master is so powerful!"
Zhao Shan smiled and said:
"Master used to be a member of the county general gang, and later he followed the shopkeeper Sun Guanghe and came to Leping County as a steward. Master told me that after he has accumulated a few years of experience, he will return to the general gang to serve. When the time comes, our brothers , you can also go to the county town with Master."
When Zhao Shan said this, he smiled happily and his tone was encouraging, but Chen Yuan was sneering in his heart.
Manager Li only regarded them as thugs. I am afraid that only Wang Cong was truly regarded as his disciple.
When he returns to the county town to help with such good deeds, how can he and Zhao Shan be compared?
Chen Yuan sneered in his heart, but on the surface he exclaimed:
"Master is so powerful, what level must he be in?"
Zhao Shan said:
"Master is a peak marrow refining warrior, and he is also a master in Leping County, only slightly worse than Shopkeeper Sun."
"Is Shopkeeper Sun more powerful than Master?"
"Shopkeeper Sun is an internally powerful martial artist. In the entire Leping County, there are only two or three people who can rival him... By the way, Manager Sun is the cousin of Shopkeeper Sun. He is stingy and greedy for money, so it is best not to offend him."
Chen Yuan's eyes widened:
"But Manager Sun is obviously very kind!"
Zhao Shan sneered:
"Haha, that's for the sake of the master. The master is in charge of many affairs of Semicolon, and he is not something he, a kitchen manager, can afford to offend. But after all, he is a relative of shopkeeper Sun. It is better not to offend him if he can. "
Afterwards, the two chatted while eating, and Zhao Shan talked a lot intermittently, giving Chen Yuan a full understanding of Baibing Hall in Leping County.
Steward Li, named Li Yong, is one of the two chief stewards in the hall. He is in charge of business, apprenticeships, blacksmithing and many other affairs, and has a high position of authority.
The other steward in the hall is Zhang Jinkui, whom Steward Li calls him. He is also a warrior at the peak of marrow refining and is in charge of the fleet and the guards.
Like Manager Li, he was a close confidant brought by shopkeeper Sun Guanghe from the county general gang when he took office six years ago.
However, the relationship between the two was bad and there were many conflicts.
Manager Li is in charge of business transactions and has strong financial resources.
Zhang Jinkui has a group of guards with strong military force.
The two of them fought back and forth, and no one could take advantage.
But in the past two years, the situation has begun to change.
Under the deliberate training of Guanshi Li, Wang Cong and Zhao Shan became bone-refining warriors.
Under the arrangement of Manager Li, Zhao Shan became one of the three leaders of the escort team.
This greatly increased Guanshi Li's voice among the guards, and gradually gained the upper hand in the fight with Zhang Jinkui.
…
After the two of them finished eating, Chen Yuan took the initiative to go to the well at the entrance of the alley, fetched two buckets of water, and washed the dishes and chopsticks, which made Zhao Shan very satisfied.
After a night of silence, Chen Yuan got up early the next morning, took Zhao Shan's food box, and went to the kitchen to prepare food.
When he came back, Zhao Shan also got up.
During dinner yesterday, Zhao Shan said that he would teach Chen Yuan martial arts today and asked him to get up early.
From Zhao Shankou, Chen Yuan learned that the martial arts secrets in Jianghu were divided into low-level, third-rate, second-rate, first-rate, and magical skills from low to high.
Those who do not enter the stream can reach the highest level of bone refining, third-rate marrow refining, second-rate internal energy, first-rate transformation energy, and innate magical skills.
Among them, the most common techniques are those that are not popular and can be taught in street martial arts schools.
But starting from the third-rate secrets, only sect gangs with certain power in the world can master them.
The Fuhu Jin that Zhao Shan is going to teach Chen Yuan today is a third-rate technique.
After the two had breakfast, Chen Yuan changed into linen clothes and stood in the open space in the courtyard. Zhao Shan said seriously:
"Junior brother, this Fuhu Jin can be practiced to the peak of marrow refining. I will explain the formula to you carefully. Listen carefully..."
Later, Zhao Shan told Fu Hujin's formula in detail, nearly a thousand words in total, and Chen Yuan memorized it firmly.
After experiencing starlight infusion, Chen Ye not only strengthened his physical body, but his memory also improved a lot, and he never forgot what he heard.
Of course, he didn't show it. When Zhao Shan told it for the tenth time, he pretended to barely remember it.
Zhao Shan did not become impatient because of this, and kept patiently explaining the formulas to him and personally demonstrating the Fuhu Boxing technique.
Warriors need to use fists to perform martial arts. To practice Fuhu Jin, they must perform Fuhu Fist.
When practicing boxing, special breathing methods are used to stimulate the meridians and acupuncture points to produce a sense of Qi. Then, the physical Qi is continuously strengthened to achieve the effect of tempering the physical body, refining the skin and bones, until the energy is refined into the marrow.
Zhao Shan practiced the boxing technique twice at an extremely slow speed, and then taught Chen Yuan how to practice boxing step by step.
"Junior brother, this set of Fuhu Fist is not only effective in practicing martial arts, but can also be used to fight enemies. It is comparable to a second-rate secret book. You must practice it frequently. Of course, you are a beginner in martial arts. It will take some time to get started. It is estimated that it will be very difficult. It takes half a month to feel Qi, so don’t be impatient..."
Under the guidance of Zhao Shan, Chen Yuan practiced the boxing technique himself, but his expression was a little strange and he asked:
"Senior brother, it takes so long just to generate a sense of energy. Is it so difficult to practice martial arts?"
"Most people who practice martial arts are like this, but those with excellent qualifications have amazing understanding and can produce a sense of energy in two or three days. There are even some amazingly talented and beautiful people who can produce a sense of energy in one day!"
Chen Yuan was stunned:
"It feels like a day! There aren't many such powerful people in the county, right?"
Zhao Shan laughed and said:
"County town? Looking at the entire Qi country, the ability to sense Qi in one day is a rare martial arts prodigy that can only be seen in a century! But junior brother, you have only practiced boxing once, so you can't tell anything. Maybe you can also feel Qi after a day, haha... "
Chen Yuan waved his hands repeatedly and said with a naive smile:
"Senior brother, please stop making fun of me. I don't have the ability to do that!"
Afterwards, he practiced the Fuhu Fist twice more, and Zhao Shan nodded with satisfaction:
"Very good. Although you are a little slow in memorizing formulas, there is nothing wrong with practicing boxing. Once you have a sense of Qi, you will advance quickly. After all, you are very strong, and your physical body must not be weak, otherwise you will not be able to carry this huge body. force."
"Thank you, senior brother, for your guidance!"
"Junior brother, you don't have to be polite. Master has entrusted you to me. Of course I will teach you with all my heart. After you learn, don't forget to repay Master. That's all."
"Yes, I will definitely study martial arts hard and repay Master's kindness as soon as possible!"
Chen Yuan responded loudly with a sincere expression.
Zhao Shan raised his head and glanced at the sun and said:
"Okay, you continue to practice boxing. I will go to the escort team first. If there is anything you don't understand, wait until I come back."
"Brother, walk slowly!"
Chen Yuan sent Zhao Shan out, fastened the door latch, returned to the courtyard, took a deep breath, and continued to practice Fuhu Fist.
Feeling the heat surging in his body, Chen Yuan showed uncontrollable excitement on his face.
Zhao Shan said that an ordinary martial artist can develop a sense of Qi in ten and a half months, a martial arts genius can develop a sense of Qi in two or three days, and a peerless prodigy can develop a sense of Qi in one day.
But when Chen Yuan practiced Fuhu Fist for the first time, he felt Qi in his body!
When he felt a stream of heat in his body, which was very similar to the feeling described by Zhao Shan, he could only try to suppress the change in his expression.
Hearing that it would take a day for a peerless prodigy to feel Qi, Chen Yuan did not dare to reveal anything.
He is not a martial arts prodigy. The reason why he can generate a sense of energy so quickly is all due to the starlight filling his body.
After twenty-two starlight injections, Chen Yuan's control over his body has greatly increased, and he can even control the movement of every muscle.
It would be difficult for others to use special breathing techniques when practicing boxing, but for him, it was easy.
Chen Yuan not only made no mistakes when practicing boxing, but also perfect!
Even Zhao Shan himself could not practice Fuhu Fist as perfectly as Chen Yuan.
"Hoo! Drink! Hoo..."
In the quiet courtyard, Chen Yuan let go of his hands and feet and practiced his boxing skills with all his strength. He felt the heat in his body getting stronger and stronger. While he felt comfortable, he was even more confused.
What kind of treasure is Yu Jue? Just more than twenty times of starlight infusion made him surpass the martial arts prodigy that Qi had never seen in a century.
If only I could receive starlight injection every day...
Chen Yuan made up his mind to keep Yujue's secret and never expose his special features to other people's prying eyes.
Manager Li was not very kind-hearted. Zhao Shan seemed to have a good heart, but he was loyal to Manager Li and could not reveal his true identity to him.
As Chen Yuan's thoughts circulated, his hands and feet kept rehearsing his boxing techniques.
Only by improving one's own strength can one truly protect Yujue without fear of others' prying eyes.
Instead of having to walk on thin ice, be careful, or even have to disguise your temperament like now.
Chen Yuan's desire to become stronger has never been so strong as at this moment.
