At noon, the sun suddenly emerged from behind the dark clouds, and the dazzling golden light sprinkled all over the land, reflecting the white snow, and the eyes were strange.

The snow on the mountain road has already been cleared, and from time to time there are lone wolf gang disciples with swords and swords passing by, in twos and threes, or silent, or talking and laughing loudly, but it is not lonely.

Halfway up the mountainside, when taking the trail to turn, Zhao Ziming inadvertently glanced down the mountain, only to see that his eyes were white, the earth was vast, the sky was vast, the rivers were condensed, the scenery was very different from what he saw in midsummer, and he suddenly felt that time had passed, and he remembered his parents who had never met, as well as the third uncle who was controlled by others, and the old man Sun who was no longer alive.

After a long time, Zhao Ziming shook his head, smiled apologetically at the medicine boy who was waiting on the side, and said, "Senior brother, let's go." ”

Because it was a trail, the snow was uncleaned, and it was curved and steep, making it inconvenient to move forward, Zhao Ziming was okay, but the medicine boy's internal strength was not as deep as his, so he walked quite reluctantly, and it was inevitable that he would help him.

The medicine boy should be less than ten years old, blushing, and said embarrassedly, "Thank you, senior brother." ”

Zhao Ziming saw that there were a lot of stains and scratches on his clothes behind his back, and he knew in his heart that when the boy went down the mountain, he was afraid that he would suffer a lot, and the secret medicine was not close to people.

After walking for another half an hour, the two finally arrived at the medicine hall, and the boy made a gesture and said, "Senior brother, Yao Lao is waiting for you in the inner hall, and the senior brother has retired." ”

Zhao Ziming smiled and nodded, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

After the medicine boy left, Zhao Ziming walked through the Wujin courtyard, came to the innermost courtyard, and knocked lightly on the door, "Medicine Master, disciple Qianming asks to see." ”

"Come in. ”

Zhao Ziming pushed the door in. The old medicine monster motioned for him to sit down at the table and said, "I wanted to call you up the mountain again at the end of the year, but the plan changed, so I had to call you in advance." ”

Zhao Ziming hesitated for a moment and asked, "What does the pharmacist command?"

To be honest, he was very apprehensive in his heart, because so far, he still didn't know the purpose of the medicine monster taking him as an apprentice.

The medicine old monster's fingers tapped lightly on the table, as if he was considering the words, and after a while, he said: "I said that I have other plans to accept you as a disciple, and this time I called you up the mountain to ask you to help me do something." ”

Zhao Ziming said: "As long as the disciple can do his best, he will never dare to resign." ”

The old man took a sip of tea and said, "The old man swore that he would never accept apprentices for some special reasons, but your physique is very suitable for inheriting my mantle, so I stepped in and snatched you from Liu Wenzhong." ”

He paused, and then said: "But the old man doesn't accept mediocrity, I have heard a little about your deeds in the young wolf village, it is very good, I didn't lose the old man's face, the old man was still a little worried, whether you can pass the test, but now it seems that I am too worried." ”

His face suddenly became solemn, his eyes were firmly fixed on Zhao Ziming, and he said: "Although the old man has a strange temperament, he is straightforward, and he doesn't like to be false and wronged, since he accepts you as a disciple, he will treat you sincerely and teach you skills, and you, the old man wants you to swear, no matter what in this life, you will not betray me!"

Zhao Ziming was a little inexplicable, and he didn't know how the old monster of medicine could talk so far from the topic, but looking at the latter's sharp eyes, his heart sank, and he said solemnly: "The teacher will not live up to me, I will not live up to the teacher, if I violate this word, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!"

"Okay!" the old medicine monster smiled, flipped his hand and took out a three-legged small tripod, and flicked the wall of the tripod with his fingers.

A crisp and ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the room, and at the same time, Zhao Ziming screamed, jumped up, and slapped his hand in front of him.

The medicine old monster reached out and grabbed it like lightning, "Don't panic." Spread out his palm, in the palm of his hand, there was a strange insect the size of a small thumb and a whole ice blue body, and the two tentacles on its head were dancing rapidly, very excited.

Zhao Ziming has suffered a lot from the strange insect, even if he covets the cold qi that can increase the internal strength of the strange insect, but he is caught off guard, and he never wants to let it take a bite.

The old medicine monster put the strange insect back in the ding, and said with a smile: "This insect is the ice jade silkworm, which was obtained by killing a strong enemy when I traveled in Northern Mongolia a few years ago, which is of great use to me, but unfortunately, more than a year, less than a few months, this silkworm will accumulate a large amount of cold poison in the body, and it takes a lot of internal strength to forcibly get rid of it for the teacher, and you don't seem to be afraid of the cold poison entering the body, so I want you to take action to solve the trouble for the teacher." ”

Seeing Zhao Ziming's puzzled expression, the medicine old monster said again: "You must be strange, why do I have to ask you to do this, right? The cold poison toxicity of the ice jade silkworm varies from person to person, regardless of the strength of the internal force, it is only related to the physique. ”

Zhao Ziming suddenly realized, he hesitated for a moment, smiled bitterly and stretched out his hand, "The disciple is willing to serve the master." ”

The medicine old monster breathed a sigh of relief, took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a fiery red pill from it, and said: "It's the cold winter season, and you can't use the power of the sun to detoxify afterwards, so take this Heart Protecting Pill first." ”

Zhao Ziming blinked, after the cold poison entered the body, it could obviously be turned into internal force, did it need to be removed?

His mind twirled a few times, but in the end he didn't say anything, took the pill, and swallowed it in one gulp.

The medicine old monster pinched the ice jade silkworm and put it in Zhao Ziming's palm. The ice jade silkworm couldn't wait to bite down and suck the blood.

The strong chill spread rapidly, but Zhao Ziming did not fall into a situation where he couldn't move in an instant like last time, he stared intently at the ice jade silkworm.

The ice jade silkworm's ice-blue body slowly turned red, and then the red and blue mixed, turning into dark black, and after a while, the swollen silkworm body fluctuated like water, and a thin blue air flow flowed out of the silkworm's mouth and injected into Zhao Ziming's palm and flesh.

At this time, Zhao Ziming urged the active internal force in the dantian to run to the palm of his hand. When the internal force is like a heavy object, the flow speed is greatly reduced.

Zhao Ziming was ecstatic in his heart, and secretly said, "That's really the case."

The last time he was bitten by the ice jade silkworm, he operated the internal force, and as a result, the rapid internal force destroyed his meridians, this time he learned a lesson, and waited until the cold poison entered the body and then operated the internal force, and the risk of meridian injury disappeared.

After the black decayed, the blue faded, and the whole body was red like blood, the ice jade silkworm let go of its mouth, let out a satisfied sound, and lay still on its stomach.

The medicine old monster put away the ice jade silkworm and looked at Zhao Ziming with some concern, but the latter smiled at him and reached out to wipe the frost on his face.

The medicine old monster said in surprise: "You...... Can you completely withstand the cold?"

Zhao Ziming let out a cloud of white gas, slowly moved his muscles and bones, and said: "It's much better than last time, but it's very cold." ”

The medicine old monster buckled Zhao Ziming's veins, sensed it for a moment, and said: "Unbelievable, although your blood flows slowly, it is very stable, it should be caused by the cold poison evenly dispersed throughout the body, so that there is no worry about blood condensation, and it is easy to remove poison, okay!"

Two days later.

In the room, Zhao Ziming opened his eyes, felt a small increase in the internal force in his body, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and muttered: "Cold poison is really a good thing." ”

This time he refined the cold poison, and the internal strength he increased was even more than Zhao Ziming's previous March penance, no wonder he had such feelings.

Of course, Zhao Ziming was able to refine the cold poison so quickly, thanks to the various blood-tonifying and aphrodisiac drugs prepared for him by the medicine boss, and the number of them made Zhao Ziming speechless.

Seeing that Zhao Ziming only spent two days to get rid of the cold poison, the medicine old monster was amazed and happy, and he would no longer suffer from cold poison.

The old medicine monster pondered for a moment and said: "You have done a great favor for the teacher, and you can't help but express it as a teacher, so let's pass on a set of boxing techniques to you." ”

Zhao Ziming was stunned, then overjoyed, bowed down and bowed, "Thank you, Master." ”

Yao Laowei's face became serious, "This set of boxing methods is called Baji Boxing, which is the top foreign boxing method, practiced to the realm of Dacheng, and the muscles and bones are stronger than steel, and the knives and guns are difficult to penetrate. However, in the early years of his master's fame, he had made a lot of powerful enemies, and after you learned it, if you went out, you had to do it as a last resort, and try not to show it in front of others. ”

After speaking, he took out an ancient yellow book and handed it to Zhao Ziming, "This is a boxing book, you take it first to memorize the moves, and then personally guide you to practice after a few ****, you will stay in the medicine hall this month, as for the young wolf village, I will go over to do it, you don't have to worry." ”

Zhao Ziming naturally had no reason to refuse, and after thanking him again, he happily returned to the room, opened the boxing book and studied it carefully.

Three days later, Zhao Ziming had memorized the content of the boxing book and began to formally practice Bajiquan under the guidance of Yao Laowei.

"There are eight poles on the ground, the fist goes in all directions, the eight poles of the fist are strong, the fist is fast, pay attention to the immobility, move like thunder, each blow must be full force, hands, wrists, elbows, shoulders, tails, knees, ankles, all over the body, can be used as an attack weapon, when fighting, if you get close to get the first opportunity, even enough to fight over the ranks. The medicine old monster put his hands behind his back and spoke eloquently.

"However, the cultivation of foreign martial arts has always been hard, especially Bajiquan, such as iron sand palm, eagle claw gong and the like, generally focus on tempering a certain part of the human body-" The medicine old monster's voice suddenly paused, he slapped Zhao Ziming on the back, corrected a mistake, and then continued to speak:

"Bajiquan, on the other hand, needs to boil the muscles, bones and joints of the whole body, and strive to punch out, with all the strength, and the blood and sweat it takes can be imagined. ”

"Therefore, the first thing you need to do is to master all the boxing routines, and what you can achieve in the future depends on your understanding and your hard work. ”

Zhao Ziming is gritting his teeth and posing in a posture at the moment, his left leg is half a step diagonally behind the side, his body is slightly squatting, his shoulders are sinking, his left hand is clenched into a fist at the waist, his elbow is pushed back, and his right palm is attached to his left fist, pushing back as much as possible.

At first, he didn't feel anything, but after the medicine old monster kicked his knees and clapped his hands to correct it a few times, he suddenly felt that the muscles on his back seemed to be pulled by the ropes at both ends, and the tighter and tighter they were, and there was a possibility of breaking them at any time!

Zhao Ziming's face turned pale, beads of sweat dripping from his forehead, thinking that this posture was just one of the dozens of hundreds of movements in the boxing book, and it was so painful to practice, if he wanted to practice Baji Boxing, I was afraid that he would have to endure some hardships.
