Chapter 19: Yang Chi
After returning to the villa, Long Yuan went into the room to look at Zhen Fan's Fist, if he was in a more cheerful mood when he watched this martial art before, then there was a trace of pressure in his heart at this time.
If he hadn't gone to find Erlong today, maybe he wouldn't have gotten the news of the exchange in advance, and he hadn't heard a few senior brothers talk about the exchange in the past few days.
Over the years, Long Yuan also noticed that his master's teaching of martial arts had a soft feeling, his hearing was not good enough to affect the use of true qi, and he had also asked his master, but his master only said that he didn't need to care.
Therefore, Long Yuan has always studied martial arts cultivation by himself, and rarely went to the master to solve his doubts.
"Let's make the wooden stakes first. Long Yuan thought about it carefully, and he was very curious about this wooden stake.
After finding a pen and paper to transcribe the pattern annotations of the wooden stake, he went to find Gai Yun, which is estimated to be only possible by a carpenter like his third senior brother.
Sure enough, when Long Yuan handed over the drawings in his hand to Gai Yun, the latter's expression was immediately as if he had picked up a treasure.
"Give it to me, and I'll give it to you in three days." Gai Yun patted his chest and said.
"Third Senior Brother, if this wooden stake is made of dark iron, how long will it take to complete, and how much will it cost?" Long Yuan not only wanted a wooden stake, but also an iron stake.
"Well, it will take about a month and a half, and the cost should be twenty gold coins. The mechanical meshing in this wooden pile is very ingenious, there are lines and protrusions on the pile arm, and the shape of the rotating shaft part is peculiar, and it is not easy to cast. Of course, if the entire casting workshop is operated at the same time, it can be completed in half a month, but the cost will have to be increased by three times. Gai Yun said.
"Hmm. Thank you, brother, but please don't let anyone else know that I made this thing. ”
"Okay. But I won't give you this drawing afterwards. ”
Long Yuan smiled and nodded, and after saying goodbye to Gai Yun, he went to find Jing Chiyue again, he had no money on him, and he needed to turn over some money from his fourth senior brother, and he also had some small plans.
"Oh, this is the one hundred gold coins you want, your senior brother, I won't ask you to collect the interest, the fifth senior brother came to borrow it and I will collect three points of interest from him a month. Hey. Jing Chiyue waved when he heard that Long Yuan needed money, and in his heart, no matter how much money he had, he was never as good as a few junior brothers.
"As for what you said about spending money to hire a martial artist as a sparring partner, I don't think it's a good idea. There's a boxing ring in the southeast corner of Moonsun City, you can go there and maybe earn some gold. But you can't let Master know, the consequences are very serious. I'll take you over after the physical test, I'm familiar with it over there, and I'll just go to help you ask about the auction price of that martial arts. ”
"Fourth Senior Brother, I won't sell that martial arts book for the time being. ”
Long Yuan felt that money was dispensable for him, and if he didn't have to worry about food and clothing in Longyin Villa, and he could go to the boxing ring to box, maybe Shi Niang's bracelet could also be settled. What's more, Zhen Fan's interception is quite his appetite, and he is reluctant to sell it.
There is no shortage of all kinds of martial arts in Longyin Villa, but Ling Jiutian doesn't want to take it out for the time being, and Long Yuan has never entered the Wudian Pavilion, so he regards the Zhenfan Interception as a treasure.
"Well, whatever you want. ”
"Fourth Senior Brother, I'll pay you back when I save up the money in the future. With that, Long Yuan went back to his residence.
Long Yuan held the cheats in his hand, read the contents carefully, and unconsciously forgot the time, and held the cheats until dark.
Now that Master Tang is gone, the cultivation of Longling Valley has also been suspended, several disciples of Longyin Villa don't know where Ye has gone, Ling Qinglan doesn't go to cook anymore, anyway, her senior brothers can't be hungry.
The night sky is full of stars, like a huge ancient black robe, a full moon envelops Longyin Villa, and the whole villa is immersed in a peaceful atmosphere, with the occasional chirping of crickets and the flapping of grasshoppers from the grass.
Halfway up the mountain behind the villa, a figure shook, and with the movement of the figure, a heavy wheezing sound came out.
This figure is Long Yuan, after studying the cheats in the room, he came to the back mountain martial arts field, where there are all kinds of practice equipment, stone locks, stone burdens, plum blossom piles, etc.
After Long Yuan closed the three acupoints of the Purple Palace, the Jade Hall and the Atrium on his chest, the sea of qi in his body was also cut off from his body.
These three major points around the sea of qi can also be regarded as a cover door for martial artists, so every martial artist has put a lot of effort into protecting the cover door, and it is impossible for a martial artist of the same level to seal his qi sea when the other party has defense.
When they reach a certain level, these three major acupoints will be practiced to death, and at that time, it will be impossible for martial artists to be sealed in the way of point points, and they can only be sealed with sealing techniques.
Now Long Yuan wanted to know where the limit of his normalcy was.
"Whew. After a while, Long Yuan let out a long breath and sat down on the ground.
"It turns out that the distance of sealing the sea of qi is less than one zhang when I jump, and the height is only less than half a zhang, and a stone burden of two hundred and fifty catties is the limit. That's a far cry from usual. If this state is still a lot worse than some slightly talented martial artists. Long Yuan muttered.
After carefully flipping through the two cheats of "Zhen Fan Intercepting Fist" and "Space Step", Long Yuan found the similarities between these two martial arts, both of which have certain requirements for entry.
If you want to practice Zhenfan's truncation to the beginning, you must increase the jumping height to at least two-thirds of one zhang, and the length must reach one zhang long, and the strength is even more demanding, and the strength of lifting weights must reach 500 catties. This was nothing to Long Yuan in normal times, but once he didn't rely on the Qi Sea, he could only do it to this extent.
One of the indicators of the space walk is to jump to a height of three feet without bending the knees, in addition to exercising the flexibility of the body.
All of this was built without relying on the sea of qi, and such conditions made Long Yuan can't help but smack his tongue.
In the sects of the martial arts, the head of the sect or the head of the sect all focuses on the full limit of the disciple, and stimulates the potential of the disciple to the fullest, so as to achieve further progress, and rarely makes many restrictions for the disciple to cultivate like the Zhen Fan Interception and the Space Step.
Just as a person has learned peerless martial arts, he will no longer think about how much he can defeat his opponent when his martial arts are lost.
"Come again!"
The disciples of the Martial Sect all have a strong spirit, and Long Yuan is no exception, even more so than the others.
In the past, Long Yuan fought with the brothers over and over again with his own set of "Wang Baquan". In terms of body reactions, Long Yuan was no worse than the others, but the root of the problem was that he couldn't use his true qi well. His senior brothers had been able to protect his body with partial true qi, but he couldn't.
Moreover, the weapons they used in the battle were all unopened, and Long Yuan had no way to break through the defenses of his senior brothers, how could he win.
However, thanks to this, Long Yuan's on-the-spot adaptability and judgment were much stronger than those of his senior brothers.
A handsome figure in the mountain kept jumping, and before he knew it, the bright moon was parting with branches, and it was gradually slanting westward. The figure on the field finally lay on the ground and fell asleep.
By the time Long Yuan felt the sun dazzle, it was already past noon. Long Yuan woke up feeling sore and numb, and he felt unspeakably uncomfortable.
Thinking back to last night's cultivation, Long Yuan couldn't help but frown, the progress of his cultivation in that state was too slow.
After thinking about it for a while, he thought about a cultivation plan, if it was about the level of understanding of the human body, Long Yuan was the best among the seven, and if he wanted to improve his physique, he still had a way.
In the past, when Ling Jiutian saw that Long Yuan was a little interested in medical science, he found him a lot of medical classics, including "The Bronze Man Sutra" and "The Difficult Sutra", so Long Yuan's understanding of skeletal tendons was also quite profound.
"It seems that in the future, I can only practice these two secret books at night and in the early morning, otherwise the master will blame me for hiding from him. Long Yuan pondered for a while and then went down the mountain.
Su Donghe and Chen Wei didn't know where to go, Gai Yun went to buy wood, Jing Chiyue went to talk about business, Qi Meiran was bored in the kitchen to study cooking, and Ling Qinglan was embroidering in the boudoir. Long Yuan went to Moonlight Street alone, and the food stalls on the street were about to open.
Because his legs were sore, Long Yuan slowly swayed to the street, and it happened that several hard-working stall owners had already opened their shops.
"Hurry up, wake up the old king next door, the little god of wealth is here. When a stall owner saw Long Yuan coming in from the entrance of the street, he immediately asked the helper next to him to call someone.
After a while, the smell of oil smoke was already filling the street that was still a little deserted.
Long Yuan held paper bags and ate them from one end of Moonlight Street to the middle. As he was walking, he saw two familiar figures at a glance, one of them was Uncle Yu who sold twist flowers, and the one next to him was Uncle Yu's lovely daughter Yu Xiaoxiao.
Smelling the fragrance of twist flowers, Long Yuan also walked up quickly.
"Uncle Yu, come to three plates of twist flowers. Long Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle, are your injuries healed?"
"Ah, it turned out to be Young Master Long, the old man's injuries are healed, thanks to Young Master Long. Quick, please be seated. Uncle Yu hurriedly greeted Long Yuan when he saw him, and then personally brought a plate of twist flowers.
"Young Master Long, thank you so much, the money you left behind was redeemed for a little bit. When the old man earns enough in the future, he will definitely pay you back. ”
Long Yuan waved his hand and said, "No need Uncle Yu, I'll eat twist flowers from you for a year." ”
The smile on Uncle Yu's face stiffened slightly, and even though he covered it, he said with a smile: "I don't know where Young Master Long's family lives, I still have to pay back some of the old man's money in the future, but Young Master Long should not delay it for a long time." ”
"Yes, Young Master Long, where is your home, and we will know where to go in the future. "A little one on the side also came over.
Long Yuan hesitated slightly, but when he saw that Uncle Yu and Xiaoxiao looked sincere, he replied: "I live in Longyin Villa. ”
Uncle Yu was stunned when he heard this, he thought that Long Yuan was the son of whose family, but he didn't expect Long Yuan to be a disciple of Longyin Villa, and Xiaoxiao on the side also covered his mouth.
"But Uncle Yu, don't tell others that Master doesn't like us revealing our identities. Long Yuan said.
"Hmm. Uncle Yu nodded again and again, and then said, "Young Master Long, you eat first, and I'll bring it to you in a while." ”
Long Yuan hummed and ate the twist flower.
Soon there was a commotion in the streets, which began with a man and a horse, ridden by a young man dressed in fine clothes, and a snow-white steed under his crotch, followed by a group of family members.
"Hehe, Xiaoxiao, you can't run away without the approval of your son. ”
The young man in Chinese costume said aloud in the direction of Long Yuan from a distance.
Xiao Xiao's pretty face immediately became nervous.
The white horse's hooves sounded, and in a blink of an eye, it stopped in front of Uncle Yu's stall.
"Hehe, Xiaoxiao, this moonlight street is my Yang family's property, see where you go. The young man in Chinese costume said arrogantly on the horse.
"Isn't this Yang Chi, the youngest son of the Yang family? What is he doing here?"
"It seems that I went to Uncle Yu over there. ”
Some of the surrounding stall owners knew this young man in fancy clothes and discussed.
Yang ...... Young Master Yang, Madame has already agreed to let me go. Xiao Xiao kneaded his little hand.
"I didn't agree, I won't be able to sleep peacefully when you're gone. Yang Chiwei smiled.
"Yang Gongzi, the little girl doesn't know how to serve people, and she is afraid of displeasing her wife, so she quit her job, and hopes that Yang Gongzi Haihan. Uncle Yu walked up to Yang Chi's white horse and bowed down and said.
"Old man, I fancy your daughter is a blessing that you have cultivated for eight lifetimes, don't know what to do. Yang Chi snorted, waved his hand and said, "Come on, invite me back." ”
The family member behind him immediately grabbed Xiaoxiao, and Uncle Yu went over to block the road, but was slapped by a family member.
"Fuck your uncle!" the man scolded.
But just as the slap was about to fall, a thin figure swept by.
"Huh?" That figure also caught Yang Chi's attention.
"Uncle Yu, you should step back first. Long Yuan turned his head and said to Uncle Yu.
"Young Master Long......" Uncle Yu was just about to say something, and Long Yuan's sentence "I'll deal with it." And he let him go down.
"Who are you?" Yang Chi frowned.
"Don't go too far. Long Yuan said to Yang Chi.
"It's too much, there are not many people in Yueyang City who dare to talk to me like this, and those who know each other hurry away. Yang Chi pouted.
Hearing this, Long Yuan took another step forward.
"Looking for death!" Yang Chi saw that Long Yuan not only did not listen to persuasion, but also dared to step forward, and as soon as he lifted the reins, he was about to step on Long Yuan's chest with his horse's hooves.
Long Yuan took another step forward, and with a force from his waist, he punched Bai Ma in the abdomen.
"Boom. ”
Hearing only the sound of a horse, the white horse's legs were unstable and rolled over, and Yang Chi also fell off the horse, looking very embarrassed.
