Chapter 7: The Iron Ox Crosses the River
Gee......
I didn't expect the joy of revenge to be so short-lived!
Shen Lang sighed and took the burden that Shen Wu had prepared for him, which was full of new clothes and boots she sewn for her second brother Shen Qi, and there should be a lot of silver, and he felt heavy when he took it.
Last night, the old boss made a decision that he would leave the Shen family with Shen Lang today and go to the old boss's house to start cultivating.
The happiest person about this news is Shen Wu's family, I thought it would be a long time to be low, but I didn't expect that the eldest son would leave the next day, and I was suddenly relaxed.
But soon she became miserable again, because Shen Zhongcheng asked her to take away the three little yellow croakers in the family to Shen Lang, which was the wealth that their husband and wife had worked hard to accumulate for ten years, and it was originally intended to be used to buy a house in a good place in Huya City!
If it was before, she could have cried, made trouble and hanged herself to resolutely oppose it, there are three children, why should they all spend on the boss.
But now she didn't dare to say a word, after all, she was almost divorced by her husband yesterday, but she was so depressed in her heart that she couldn't wait to poke a few holes in her stomach with scissors to vent her anger.
Shen Lang was a little regretful at the beginning, and he couldn't vent his anger for his predecessor, but when he saw Shen Wu's sad and indignant eyes, he was also taken aback in his heart.
What's going on?
Shen Wu should be very happy to leave this home!
So he couldn't help but look at Shen Wu twice, only to feel that she seemed to be ten years older than yesterday!
There are white hair on the temples, the face is wrinkled but the cheeks are red, the eyes are bloodshot, and even the rhythm of breathing does not sound so smooth.
It feels like I've been cut off two pounds of meat!
Shen Lang probably had a guess, and while others were not paying attention, he reached into the baggage and touched a small bag, and he woke up with a pinching of his fingers.
Silver is not as heavy as this, it is gold!
The gold bars with the thickness of three fingers are probably most of the family's savings, no wonder Shen Wu is in this state.
Think of it as the nutrition fee and mental loss fee of the predecessor Shen Lang!
Poor and rich in martial arts, not to mention those tonic herbs that can strengthen the body, just talk about the diet that needs to be guaranteed the most after practicing martial arts, it costs several times more than ordinary people, not to mention that they also need bone-setting medicine and wine and cultivation equipment on weekdays, which all cost money!
Although the old boss sincerely accepted himself as an apprentice, and also gave himself the extremely precious spiritual jade, it is an extravagant hope to rely on the old boss to live comfortably!
Because the old boss has no relatives, and he is generous and heroic on weekdays, he has no family background at all, and he relies on the filial piety of his disciples and grandchildren on weekdays.
Counting the hundreds of disciples and grandchildren of the old leader, this will be a big problem that Shen Lang is about to face.
This morning, his father, Shen Zhongcheng, deliberately got up early and called him out to give instructions outside, mainly to remind Shen Lang to be careful of those disciples and grandchildren of the old leader.
As the righteous son of the old leader, Shen Zhongcheng knew very well what those people thought in their hearts, and each of them looked forward to learning the iron body skills before the old boss died, and then became the leader of this force after the old boss died.
It is not difficult to guess what attitude Shen Lang, the little junior brother and uncle who was unknown before and suddenly became a descendant, would be.
Because the old boss still maintains superhuman strength, they should not dare to directly target Shen Lang on the surface, but it is conceivable to do things in secret, so Shen Zhongcheng reminded Shen Lang to be cautious.
Now it seems that it is because he is worried about various problems that Shen Zhongcheng will bring gold bars to himself.
Thinking of this, the resentment and unwillingness left by his predecessor dissipated, so that Shen Lang couldn't help but laugh out loud three times, and he had a feeling that the sky was high and the sea was wide from now on.
"Tsk, we're going to be gone for at least two hours, so don't be too happy. The old man walking in front naturally didn't know the changes in Shen Lang's heart, thinking that Shen Lang was just happy that he didn't know the height of the sky, and after taking a puff of dry smoke, he reminded leisurely.
Originally, he just wanted to find a closed disciple to inherit what he had learned, but he didn't expect Shen Lang to realize it so well that he was qualified to become the heir of Yuchan Temple, so of course the old man had to hurry up and cultivate it well.
The first thing is to let Shen Lang, the child, know the most basic truth, practicing martial arts is suffering, and all the skin, muscles and bones must endure unimaginable pain before they can break through the limit, so he rejected Shen Zhongcheng's suggestion to send it back with a donkey cart, and instead took a long detour to return.
It snowed all night last night, and most of the snow on the way back was knee-deep, and there were sharp stones, broken dead branches and other obstacles under the snow, which was not easy to walk and felt even more painful.
That's why he reminded Shen Lang that it was better not to laugh too early, otherwise the sooner it was, the more uncomfortable it would be, but it would be better to stay calm at the beginning, and it would be easier for the mind to persevere.
"Don't worry, Master. Shen Lang nodded, began to breathe regularly, twisted his waist and shook his hips, and stepped forward step by step with his knees and ankles.
This is the basic footwork taught by the old master before leaving home, called Iron Ox Crossing the River, which is the foundation of the leg method of the jack foot.
There are many silt or pebbles at the bottom of the river, and walking should be extremely steady and heavy, so the point of this footwork is to step down hard with each step, shaking the muscles and muscles of the entire waist and legs.
Soon Shen Lang understood why the old boss reminded himself that walking in the snow was already very laborious, and every time he stepped on an obstacle such as a stone, it would sting the soles of his feet and cause his movements to be deformed, and soon even his back began to be sore.
The more he walked, the more tired he became, the more painful he became, and after half an hour, Shen Lang couldn't help but walk with his waist.
The old man watched coldly, and after training so many disciples, he could naturally see that Shen Lang had not yet reached the limit, but this kid really had never suffered hardship, and the expression on his face was too rich.
A disciple who was favored by him before, walked for an hour, without any expression on his face, took off his shoes to quickly poke open the blood blister, applied gold sore medicine and then continued walking.
Let him rest after a stick of incense, after all, he is a child who has no foundation in martial arts.
Then before there was a cup of tea, the cigarette stick on the old man's mouth almost fell into the snow pit!
Shen Lang, who was originally twitching all over, suddenly shook his whole body, and then maintained the original posture, as if the previous fatigue and pain had been swept away!
"Master, I'm getting started. Facing the old man's shocked expression, Shen Lang smiled indifferently.
Martial arts: Iron Ox crosses the river
Type: Footwork
Star Rating: Basic
Level: 2nd Tier (+1)
Attribute: Waist and leg muscles strengthened (weak)
Leg and foot skin strengthening (slight)
Just like the direct effect of the Fuhu Fist lifting on the body before, after the footwork of the Iron Ox Crossing the River was improved, the fatigue and pain were instantly swept away, and the stratum corneum of the skin on the soles of the feet seemed to have changed, and now the stinging sensation at the beginning was no longer felt when stepping on the stone.
The Iron Ox River Crossing Footwork, the first martial art to enjoy the blessing of the main attribute, is undoubtedly a horizontal practice.
