Chapter 167: Accumulation of Steps
March 15.
The sting has passed, and the spring equinox has not yet arrived.
On this day, Zhang Chu's blood qi and strength, which continued to grow after breaking through the eighth grade, finally came to a standstill.
Early in the morning, the brothers of Xuanwutang walked into the courtyard of Zhang's mansion carrying bluestone strips cut into all directions.
Each bluestone strip is about one meter long, about one foot high and wide, and weighs about three hundred catties.
Zhang Chu instructed Da Xiong to stack five bluestone strips on a book-thick iron plate, connect the four corners of the iron plate with two arm-thick iron cables, and then grasp the intersection of the two iron cables with his left hand and try to lift them.
"Up!"
Zhang Chu snorted lightly, the muscles of his left arm bulged, and the whole arm seemed to swell in a circle.
However, the iron plate did not move.
Zhang Chu scratched his head a little embarrassed.
"Unload one. ”
"Yes, Master Chu. ”
The big bear standing on the side didn't think it was funny, a bluestone bar required two Xuanwutang brothers to carry it with a wooden stick, and now there are five on the iron plate.
He stepped forward and removed a bluestone bar from the iron plate.
Zhang Chu grabbed the two iron cables again.
"Up!"
The iron plate is safe from the ground.
Zhang Chu calmed down and felt that his left arm seemed to have some strength left, but the arm bone hurt like a pinprick, and he was obviously overwhelmed.
It should be about 1,300 catties.
This is the strength of the pure arm, without the strength of the waist of the horse, nor the strength of the blood qi.
He gently lowered the iron plate, moved his left arm for a moment, and then grabbed the iron rope with his right arm.
"Up!"
The iron plate is safe from the ground.
Zhang Chu felt it carefully, and it seemed to be slightly easier than his left arm, but the pain from his arm bone was the same as that of his left arm.
The strength of the arms is also relatively average.
Zhang Chu put down the iron plate, moved his right arm and said, "Add to eight!"
"Yes!"
With a wave of his hand, several Xuanwutang brothers stepped forward, lifted four bluestone strips, and stacked them on the iron plate in turn.
The iron plate is about one meter wide, and three bluestone strips are stacked on one layer, and three layers are stacked, and the height is just right to the position of Zhang Chu's waist.
After putting the bluestone bar, the big bear stepped forward to adjust the length of the two iron cables, and after the iron was straightened, it was only three or four inches higher than the bluestone bar.
Zhang Chu moved his arms and walked to the iron plate, still standing upright, without stepping on a horse, and then grabbed the intersection of the iron cable with both hands.
"Up!"
He let out a loud shout.
The arms swelled, and the green tendons on the backs of the hands bulged.
"Squeak. ”
The chains groaned in an overwhelmed manner.
The iron plate is steadily off the ground, hanging five inches in the air.
Zhang Chu tried to persevere, but before he could finish his strength, the tingling sensation in the bones of his arms was even stronger than just now.
He slowly lowered the iron plate and exhaled softly.
The explosive power of one hand is 1,300 pounds in the left hand.
The explosive power of both hands is slightly stronger than the sum of the explosive power of the two hands, around 26700 catties.
The problem at the moment is not that he is not strong enough, but that his bones cannot support such strong strength.
Fortunately, the leap period of strength and blood qi has passed, and he can now practice the marrow.
"Alright, let's put these bluestone barcodes in the corner!"
Zhang Chu got up and slowly walked to the side.
Da Xiong answered, and instructed many Xuanwu Tang brothers to work together to move these bluestone strips to the corner of the courtyard, and they could also use these bluestone strips in the future.
Zhang Chu sat in the courtyard, watching them move stones, and thought to himself: "Do you practice your hands first?" or do you connect your feet first?"
"Practice your hands first to fight. ”
"You can run by practicing your legs first. ”
This is a big problem.
The practice of the next three grades is all water grinding kung fu, and the same is true for practicing the marrow, which requires the tempering of one bone after another, and it is not in a hurry.
It's like practicing your hands first, a person has 30 bones in one arm.
Even if Zhang Chu's own blood qi is strong, there is also a golden finger flowing from a rice bucket to speed up the recovery of blood qi, and he can continuously cultivate and refine the bones for twelve hours a day, and it takes at least one or two days to complete the refining of a bone.
It takes more than a month for one bone, and at least two months for thirty bones for an arm.
During this time, this arm cannot be used with human hands.
Forcing the hand will only make the bones that are being tempered crushed and fractured...... This kind of injury will directly affect the results of the eight-rank marrow training, and if you recover well, you will leave the cover door, and the recovery will be poor, and the bones of the whole body will not be integrated, so you can only end up in the eight-pin.
And Zhang Chu is mixed in the gang, there is no master family to protect him, and there are no subordinates who can provoke the beam, so he must be cautious.
If Liang Chongxiao was still there, he would definitely ask his opinion on this question.
With Liang Chongxiao's martial arts experience, he will definitely be able to break this question apart and crush it, tell him all kinds of pros and cons, and let him make a choice according to his actual situation.
But now that the little old man is gone, he can only measure this kind of problem himself.
"If you train your legs first, you will have difficulty moving for a while. ”
"Now that the Quadruple Gang has just been established, I still need to be in charge, and it is indeed inconvenient to move. ”
"And the matter that I have been promoted to the eighth grade, at present, only the old men of the Qinglong Gang should know, and the gang leaders in other urban areas should only suspect that I have been promoted to the eighth rank, and they can't be sure, but once I am unable to move, they can confirm that I have been promoted to the eighth grade. ”
"My martial arts realm has been promoted so quickly, once the news spreads, I am afraid that it will attract the attention of people with a heart. ”
"Moreover, now the mid-to-high-end combat power of the Quadruple Gang is still small, and Li Zheng is a nine-pin, and he can't pick up the beam, if I am incapacitated, once there is an emergency, I am afraid that my efforts will be wasted!"
"Let's practice first!"
"Practice your hands, as long as you don't use your hands, outsiders can't see the abnormality, even if you do it, I still have one hand to fight!"
"Legs and spine, just leave them in the back, big bears, and they will all enter the product. ”
Zhang Chu quickly made a decision.
He lowered his head, his gaze resting on the little finger of his left hand.
As soon as his mind moved, the slowly flowing blood qi in his body immediately began to speed up, and then, under his control, a small stream of blood qi poured into the first phalanx of his little thumb, gently shaking one by one.
No sound.
Zhang Chu only felt a pain at the top of his little finger...... It's a bit like the feeling of a hammer hitting your finger inadvertently when you're nailing.
To be honest, it still hurts a bit.
But Zhang Chu is a man who has experienced the iron pot frying himself, and this level of pain is completely bearable for him.
He withdrew the blood from the inside of his little finger, leaving only a trace of blood lingering around the first phalanx.
In his perception, the little bit of blood that lingered on the phalanx of the first phalanx of the little thumb slowly disappeared!
"It's done!"
He whispered in his heart.
The little bit of blood that lingered on the phalanx of the first phalanx of the little thumb was not gone.
Instead, it poured into the bone marrow along the crack in the first phalanx of the little thumb.
He immediately separated a stream from the blood and qi in his body and poured into his little finger, as if soaking in a hot spring, soaking the first phalanx of his little thumb.
No one noticed Zhang Chu's movements.
Even the Xuanwu Hall brothers who were close at hand didn't know that just now, they had taken a small step forward in their master's martial arts cultivation.
No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles.
