Chapter 49: The desire to survive

When Chen Yu woke up, he was already lying on the temple mat, and it was already dark.

Rubbing his eyes, Chen Yu glanced around blankly, and found that all the people had returned, and they were sitting around the fire at the moment. Marijuana was holding a spoon, stirring the broth in the crockpot. Zhao Xiaoling followed Zhao Zhuzi to skewer the raw fish and broiler chicken with wooden sticks and bake them by the fire.

As for the old beggar, there were four or five wooden bowls in front of him, and inside the wooden bowls were seasonings such as chili peppers and garlic paste. The treasure that Chen Yu brought back from Baihu Village was enough for them to eat and drink for a while.

"Ah, Brother Stone is awake. Zhao Xiaoling found Chen Yu, his hand skewering the grilled fish was stunned in mid-air, and exclaimed.

Everyone turned their heads to look at Chen Yu.

Just a few meters away, they could clearly see the exhaustion and trance on Chen Yu's face.

"Little Stone, what are you doing today, why are you so tired?" Zhao Zhuzi asked, flipping over the wooden stick with the broiler chicken in his hand.

"I went to exercise, but it seemed to be a bit strong, and my body couldn't bear it. With that, Chen Yu tried to get up. As soon as his legs were straightened, there was a burst of weakness.

"Da Da ....." a few times, and staggered a few steps forward.

"Little stone!" the crowd exclaimed. After being missing for so long, I finally came back, and I was naturally concerned by everyone.

Forcibly stabilizing his body, Chen Yu looked back at the people with shocked faces, grinned and reluctantly smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine." Gritting his teeth, his legs trembled, and Chen Yu moved to the old beggar step by step.

The old beggar looked stunned at Chen Yu sitting down beside him, and the trembling calf, stretched out his hand and touched Chen Yu's little head, and sighed.

"Grandpa....."

"I know you've suffered a lot out there, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. We don't ask for anything, it's enough to live this life happily ......."

"I.... , I know grandpa, it's just ....." Speaking of this, Chen Yu's head lowered deeper, and his words became smaller, "It's just.... , I'm afraid this world doesn't allow it......"

The sound is like a mosquito and a fly, and if it weren't for the old beggar getting closer, I am afraid that I would not be able to hear it.

The old beggar didn't say anything, and his face was as flat as usual, so that people couldn't see his expression. But it was Zhao Zhuzi, who was baking the broiler chicken opposite, who spoke, "Xiaoshi, don't worry, as long as I am here, you will not be in danger, I will protect you!"

As he spoke, he clenched his fists, revealing bulging muscles.

"Well, thank you, Brother Zhuzi. Chen Yu nodded, looking at the fire all the time, and was in a trance again.

Under the high-intensity training this time, he fully realized how many pounds and taels he had. All over his body, he still had pain.

In fact, he is also a little confused, but he has spiritual power in his body, why is his recovery power so slow? Could it be that the spiritual power in his body only serves his eyes, not his body?

If this is really the case, why did he use his spiritual power to bless his body and increase his physical strength with spiritual power last time he went out with Luo Long? Could it be that it was because his writing wheel eye was opened at that time, so that his spiritual power could penetrate his body?

As soon as he thought of this, Chen Yu wanted to immediately open the writing wheel eye and try, but when he saw Zhao Zhuzi who was constantly churning broiler chickens on the opposite side, he reluctantly dispelled this idea.

It's better not to appear in such a high-profile way. At least in front of Zhao Zhuzi and marijuana.

........

Outside the mountain temple, there was a black shadow flying from afar, rushing back and forth around the mountain temple at an astonishing speed.

It's Chenyu.

It's been a month since the last workout.

In fact, Chen Yu's original idea was not wrong, in the case of the opening of the writing wheel, the spiritual power can moisten Chen Yu's body and speed up recovery.

Chen Yu also based on this characteristic,In this month, he has frantically completed the training under Mihawk's cloth,Physically,Mentally have been greatly improved。

At least at this moment, Chen Yu circled the mountain temple, not more than a minute. The distance between the front and back of the mountain temple is at least a thousand meters. In other words, Chen Yu ran thousands of meters in one minute without blushing or panting.

Such a record is already a huge improvement.

Please don't forget, Chen Yu at this moment is just at the beginning of his seventeenth year, with two small short legs, he can have such a speed with a height of less than one meter, which is already good.

You must know that it is absolutely impossible for a normal adult to run with all his strength and run thousands of meters without blushing and panting.

Not only the speed, but Chen Yu's daily swing has also been increased to 10,000 times by Mihawk. In other words, Chen Yu spent at least half of his day practicing wielding knives.

It's just that this kind of progress is not what Chen Yu wants. His heart had always longed to be like the woman in white, slashing through the ground with a sword, cutting a hole.

He also knew that he was indeed in a hurry, but he couldn't help it. According to Luo Long's words, the poison in his body will attack in a year, and when the time comes, he will not be able to escape the fate of death.

Running around the mountain temple again, Chen Yu slowly slowed down, and finally stopped under the old vine tree, stretched out his hand to hold the trunk, and gasped for breath.

Mihawk taught that no matter how strenuous the exercise is, the breathing must be fast and steady and maintain the best condition.

[Very good, the speed has been greatly improved. At least at this stage, your speed is adequate. 】

"Enough?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

[The early stage is to train your knowledge of the sword, as long as your physical strength can keep up, the speed does not need to be too demanding. In the middle term, you can go as fast as you can. Your sword speed is also the same, and before you reach the point of understanding, you try to pursue the ultimate sword speed.

】

"Mihawk, do you mean that now I'm going to increase my speed first?" Chen Yu said tentatively, picking up the stick that was placed under the old vine tree.

[Yes, you are not completely in the security stage now, and you need to quickly have a certain amount of self-protection ability. This will make you not understand kendo well, but at least you will be able to save your life.

When you have the ability to protect yourself first, I will guide you on how to enhance your understanding of kendo, and over time, you will reach the level of a swordsman as soon as possible. 】

"Jianhao, what is that, a kind of hierarchy of swordsmen?"

[Indeed, Jianhao is the name of our place. The moment you are able to swing your sword and slash out the sword qi, you have stepped into the level of a sword hero. Mihawk patiently answered like Chen Yu, as a teacher, he was already conscientious enough.

[However, it depends on talent.] Some people with good talent can step into the level of Jianhao at the age of twenty, while some people with bad talent can't touch the threshold of Jianhao when they are old.

Of course, there are also those who touch the threshold, but they can't step on it until they are old. 】

"It's so difficult? Doesn't that mean that if I don't have talent, I probably won't be able to touch that threshold for the rest of my life?" Chen Yu's face changed, and Mihawk's words made him feel a heavy pressure. Strength is not so easy to obtain, it turns out that it is so difficult to slash out the sword qi.

[Yes, but I'm sure you can.] I can feel that you have a strong affinity for swords, and you can reach the level of swordsman!]

"Wait Mihawk, I suddenly remembered the woman who slashed the ground with a sword a month ago, and she looked like she was in her twenties.

"Somehow, whenever the sword is mentioned, Chen Yu's mind always flashes the figure of the woman in white that day.

[No, she's not a sword hero. 】

"What? She's not a swordsman?!!! but she's cut the ground open. Chen Yu looked surprised, and his mouth opened. The ground has been cut through a hole, this is not a sword hero, so to what extent can it be regarded as a sword hero?

Is it said that a sword cuts through the earth and the sea?

[Indeed, a swordsman who can slash out sword qi can be called a sword hero. But she wasn't, I could feel it, she was just using her spiritual power to bless and slash.

In other words, what her sword body emits is not sword qi, but the spiritual power that is blessed on the sword body. 】

"Spiritual power?"

[Yes, it's spiritual power.] Mihawk affirmed. [You just need to know that the sword qi of the sword hero is arbitrary, and it does not need the blessing of spiritual power. 】

"Do whatever you want, don't need spiritual power?" Chen Yu's pupils gradually widened, and a bold idea was generated in his mind.

"Mihawk, if it's true as you say. When I reach the level of a sword hero, I can slash out the sword qi, and the spiritual power has also reached the level of the woman in white, under the blessing of the two, wouldn't the power generated ......" Chen Yu was shocked by his bold idea, if this is really the case, how powerful the sword qi generated would be?

Cut open the earth, cut open the sea, or just cut an entire city with a sword?

Indeed, what you envision is possible. But Chen Yu, I can tell you clearly, if you can solve the poison and continue to live, there are definitely more than two kinds of power that you can stack in the back. 】

Chen Yu: "???!!!"

Are there more than two? Could it be that there are other powers?

At this moment, the desire to survive in Chen Yu's heart was unprecedentedly strong.

He roared in his heart, he wanted to live, he wanted to live! Live!!
