Chapter 7 Temper your physique, meet treasures at the bottom of the lake
As Xu Ran expected, since he awakened the martial spirit, the woman's attitude towards him has changed greatly, and she is even closer than her own father, so she almost lit him with incense and offered him.
And no matter how Xu Ran refused, there were people waiting outside the door every day, trying all kinds of ways to have a relationship with him.
After staying at home for another two days, Xu Ran finally couldn't stand it anymore.
After greeting old Jack, he got up early that morning, took some food and a few clothes, and hurried towards the back mountain.
Although some time ago, after non-stop hammering and masochistic morning exercises, he has completely mastered the power in his body and can use it freely, but he is still facing a serious problem, that is, his body cannot keep up with his soul power level, and the two are not proportional.
Because he has often not eaten enough since he was a child, his physical fitness is far behind that of children of the same age, although his body has been greatly improved after obtaining Tianhe Dinghai, but there is still a lot of distance from the goal in his mind.
Familiar with "Douluo Continent", he knew very well the importance of physique, so after some thought, he decided to use the next time to exercise his physique.
Halfway up the back mountain, there is a flat clearing, a quiet and clear lake, and a small waterfall more than ten meters high.
Coming to the side of the mountain wall, Xu Ran lifted the yellowed vines, revealing a cave behind him.
The cave is not large, it is two meters away from the mountain, and there is a huge stone slab (bed) in it, covered with hay, and several square stones, and nothing else.
Speaking of which, this cave was discovered by Xu Ran and Tang San by accident, although the actual age of the two of them combined was nearly sixty years old, they still maintained a childlike heart.
So, of course, this became a secret base for the two of them.
Putting down the package on his body, Xu Ran walked out of the cave and took a deep breath, and immediately felt refreshed.
In response to his physical problems, he has already formulated a set of reasonable training methods, after all, in his previous life, he was also a follower of a torn abdominal muscle, a lifelong member of the gym, and he also has some unique feelings about exercising.
When it comes to the exercise of the body, it can be divided into two parts: external muscles and internal physical fitness, and if you compare the two, physical fitness can be said to be a more important part.
If it is also subdivided, physical fitness can be divided into strength, speed, endurance, agility, flexibility, coordination, etc., these factors are interrelated and equally important.
Xu Ran's training plan for himself is actually very simple, starting from sunrise, first running 20 kilometers, followed by push-ups, sit-ups, one-foot squats and other comprehensive training, and in the afternoon, rolling boulders and riding horse steps to accept the impact of waterfalls, which will be interspersed with a little rest time.
After all, Xu Ran is just a six-year-old child, not an iron man.
In this way, the sun rises and the sun sets, and time passes day by day......
On this day, by the lake in the back mountain, a shirtless boy threw aside his shirt, his muscles lined up in an orderly manner, shimmering with metallic luster in the winter sun, and his bare skin steaming hot.
This kid is none other than Xu Ran, who has just finished pushing the boulder.
He wiped the dense beads of sweat from his forehead, cautiously came to the lake, and gently used his foot to break a hole in the ice on the lake.
Click!
A large area of ice turned into ice and sank to the bottom of the lake, and as the ice disappeared, a blue glow in the water became more conspicuous.
Xu Ran had been paying attention to this blue light for several days, and at first it only flickered occasionally, and he thought it might be some kind of glowing fish, so he didn't particularly care.
But after a few days, the blue mangs not only did not disappear, but flickered more frequently.
And the most important thing is that it was in that position from beginning to end, and it didn't move half a minute at all.
This basically negates Xu Ran's speculation at the beginning.
Could it be that what kind of treasure is it?
As soon as this idea appeared, Xu Ran's heart itched like a kitten, although he knew that there might be some unknown creatures at the bottom of the lake, but he didn't get a tiger in the tiger's den, and after thinking about it again, he still decided to enter the lake to explore.
Wearing only a pair of trousers, Xu Ran aimed at the broken big ice cave, and a fierce man plunged into it.
Entering the water, the water temperature is not particularly low, and it is still in an acceptable range.
Because of the limited time to hold his breath, Xu Ran knew that he couldn't stay at the bottom of the lake for a long time, so his goal was very clear, and he swam straight towards the blue light at the bottom of the lake.
Soon Xu Ran came to the bottom of the lake, and when he looked closely, he found that the source of the blue light was actually something similar to an anchor, but it was much smaller than the real anchor, and it was the opposite of the anchor, it was the anchor crown on the top, an iron rod connected to the anchor crown, and the other end was buried deep in the mud and sand, and the glowing point was impartial, just on a spike in the center of the anchor crown.
Xu Ran must have never seen this thing, but out of curiosity, he still grabbed it and pulled it out with all his strength.
Poof!
With a large cloud of mud and sand raised, a metal box two meters long and one meter wide was dragged out by him.
There is no pattern on the box, because it has been buried in the water all the year round, the lock has been completely corroded, and it doesn't take much effort, Xu Ran gently touched it and pulled it open.
As the iron lock landed, the lid of the box automatically opened, and a yellow cloud of unknown dust poured out of the box at first, Xu Ran hurriedly retreated when he saw this, and waited for all the unknown dust to disperse, and then approached again.
Looking into the box, there was a whole box of golden soul coins, about tens of thousands.
And at the top of the Golden Soul Coins, there is also a dagger and a sheepskin scroll.
First, he picked up the sheepskin scroll, the handwriting on it was blurred and illegible.
I can only barely see the words "good luck" on the last line.
Pick up the dagger again, start lightly, the dagger is about twenty centimeters long, and the surface is carved with some red patterns, although the material is unknown, but it still shines with cold light after soaking in water for so long, you can see that this dagger is by no means ordinary.
"With so many Golden Soul Coins and a nice dagger, who was their original owner, and why did they sink to the bottom of this small lake?"
"Could it be that someone is deliberately buried here for future generations?"
After thinking about it for a while to no avail, Xu Ran didn't want to continue wasting brain cells on this issue.
"Forget it, whoever he is, since I've met him, it's mine."
First, he put all the golden soul coins into the storage ring, and then held the dagger in his hand, Xu Ran kicked his feet on the bottom of the lake, and swam towards the water with the help of the upward recoil force.
But what he didn't know was that at the moment he moved, a certain piece of sediment not far away began to shake violently after absorbing the yellow dust.
Something seems to be breaking through the ground......
