Chapter 30: The Iron Mountain Gang
"Sneer~~" The cold air permeated the surroundings of Bihan Pond, and the figures floating on the water surface of Bihan Pond also looked blurry in the misty cold air. ("The water of this blue cold pool, there is no source in sight, it seems to be a stagnant pool, but the pool water does not smell at all.") And the water level does not decrease all year round. Poke at the bottom of the pool with a wooden pole, but you can't poke it to the end. Teng Qingshan pondered.
"Well, it's been nearly a month since I last explored the bottom of this Bihan Pool. Teng Qingshan's whole body was lucky, and the whole person stood in the pool water, and the pool water was submerged in Teng Qingshan's chest, "I have improved my strength a lot compared to a month ago, try again and see if I can touch the bottom of the pool!"
In the past few years, Teng Qingshan, who is curious about why Bihan Lake is so magical, will often explore the bottom of the pool in one breath.
But there is no time when you can really reach the bottom of the pool.
"Wow~~" Swimming to the edge of the pool, Teng Qingshan held a stone weighing more than 100 catties with both hands, took a deep breath, and suddenly, the whole person sank towards the bottom of the pool. In fact, with Teng Qingshan's control of the strength of the muscles and bones, if it is in ordinary river water, as long as he controls his strength, he can easily fall to the bottom.
However, the water in this Bihan Pond is much denser than the usual river water. To enter the bottom of the pool, there are two ways, one is to hold heavy objects such as stones and iron, or use internal strength to press down and fall. Of course, Teng Qingshan will not have a simple way not to use it, and waste his internal strength.
Holding a big stone, Teng Qingshan kept falling.
There are no weeds or creatures in the water, and there is silence.
As it sank, Teng Qingshan clearly felt that the water temperature was dropping sharply, getting colder and colder. However, at the beginning, Teng Qingshan was able to resist it by relying on the strength of his body alone.
"The water surface of this Bihan Pool is only seven or eight meters wide and more than ten meters long, but the depth is so amazing. Teng Qingshan held the stone and kept sinking, "Bihantan is halfway up Shuangtou Mountain, and now, it has sunk more than 100 meters. It must be deep in the belly of Double-Headed Mountain. ”
Shuangtou Mountain is just a small hill on Dayan Mountain, with a height of three or four hundred meters.
"It's cold. Teng Qingshan's muscles trembled slightly, and the water temperature was already cold at this moment, like sharp needles, piercing every part of Teng Qingshan's skin and penetrating into his bones, "I remember this raised stone, this time, I dived four meters more than last time before I used my internal strength." ”
The vigorous internal strength in the body has been rapidly moving in the body to resist the extreme cold.
This Bihan Pond, the further down it goes, the wider it becomes, and now it is dozens of meters long and wide. But Teng Qingshan still didn't show up at the bottom of the pool.
"Now, we have crossed the foot of Twin Heads Mountain. Teng Qingshan estimated the depth, "Here, it's really dark enough." With Teng Qingshan's eyesight, he can only distinguish within five or six meters, so you can imagine how dark it is in the depths of this cold pool. But......
At this moment, the bottom of the pool has not been touched.
In fact, holding your breath underwater, with Teng Qingshan's strength, it is not difficult to hold it for an hour or two. As a strong internal boxer, the exercise of the internal organs is the top priority, and the strong lungs allow him to persist underwater for a long time. This is one reason, lung capacity alone is not enough to last underwater for an hour or two.
The most important reason is -
Teng Qingshan's main meridians, including the various branches that connect the pores of the skin, are almost unobstructed.
With Teng Qingshan's control of the body's qi and blood, it can completely penetrate the pores and absorb the oxygen in the water to replenish consumption. Of course, this kind of replenishment is much slower than breathing through the mouth and nose. It's just that it can maintain a low level of consumption, and there can't be too intense movements. Once there is a fierce battle underwater, with Teng Qingshan's powerful viscera, it is estimated that he will hold on for a while, and he will also go to the water to breathe.
"It's getting colder. Teng Qingshan felt that the bones wrapped in fascial skin were stimulated by bursts of cold.
At such a low temperature, Teng Qingshan used his internal strength, and he couldn't hold it anymore.
"Can't go any further. Teng Qingshan's hand was loosened, and the stone fell to the bottom of the water, but his whole person was affected by buoyancy and floated upward.
"Wow!"
Teng Qingshan emerged from the water.
"I feel warm in the pool at the surface of the water. Haha......" Teng Qingshan laughed, compared to the depths of Bihan Pond, the water on the surface of the cold pool can indeed be regarded as 'warm'. Teng Qingshan also understands that this is an illusion of the human body. It's like tap water, which sometimes feels warm in the winter.
In the summer, the tap water is cold.
One reason, the pool water at the bottom of the pool can be regarded as extremely cold, and it is not surprising to feel the extreme cold and then feel the pool water on the surface of the water, and feel 'warm'.
"At a depth of two or three hundred meters, the water pressure is really large. Teng Qingshan took a deep breath, his viscera was better, the average normal person can dive ten meters before the pressure is too great to stand it, Teng Qingshan remembered that in his previous life, the world record of freehand diving was about more than 100 meters.
It is only those who have been trained for a long time to reach that level. In his previous life, he was a master of inner boxing with internal strength, and he couldn't stand it when he generally dived to more than 200 meters.
And the density of the water in this Bihan Pond is much larger than that of ordinary water. Although Teng Qingshan only dived two or three hundred meters this time, it was equivalent to diving nearly four hundred meters in ordinary water. With such water pressure, even Teng Qingshan's strong body also felt uncomfortable, his chest was suffocated, and he needed to use internal strength to relieve the pressure.
"Every month when I go deep into the bottom of the pool, my whole body, muscles, bones and even internal organs are stimulated by the extreme cold, and they will gradually become stronger. Teng Qingshan has also seen such a pattern in the past few years.
Every time you dive, your internal organs will become more powerful during the training process in the future.
Just as the muscles are strengthened when stimulated, the internal organs will also be improved when they are stimulated. It's just that...... This kind of extreme stimulation, Teng Qingshan didn't dare to do it often. I only do it once a month or so.
"Ashore!"
Teng Qingshan left Hantan, scrubbed his body with the towel in the package, and then put on his clothes and trousers. He took out the spears that had been disassembled in two and merged them into one. This iron spear is not the same as it was four years ago. Because Teng Qingshan is much taller now, he changed to a nine-foot-long iron spear, and the weight also reached sixty-eight catties.
"Whew!"
Teng Qingshan was on the edge of this cold pool and began to practice marksmanship.
......
The sky gradually darkened, and the clansmen who were farming outside Tengjiazhuang also returned, and many people gathered on the most lively martial arts training ground, and there was a commotion.
"Sister Lan, your Qingshan is back. A woman's voice rang out on the training ground.
Yuan Lanlian, her mother, who was practicing martial arts, turned her head to look, and saw Teng Qingshan, who was wearing a cloth shirt and trousers, carrying a package, walking in from the side door next to the main entrance of Tengjiazhuang, and at the same time greeting the surrounding clansmen with a smile. Teng Qingshan, who was wearing clothes, looked very delicate.
Especially because of the cultivation of Neijiaquan, there is no scar on his body, although his facial features are not too handsome, but he can be regarded as beautiful.
No one could have imagined that such a handsome young man possessed terrifying power.
"Mother. Teng Qingshan shouted from afar.
"Just wait for you to come home and eat. Yuan Lan looked at her son, her smiling eyes narrowed, and on Yuan Lan's side, there was a cute girl who was nearly six feet tall, this was Teng Qingshan's eleven-year-old sister 'Teng Qingyu', girls generally raised earlier than boys. The living conditions of Teng Qingshan's family are good, and Teng Qingyu has already begun to grow up.
"Brother, I'm hungry. Teng Qingyu shouted deliberately.
"Okay, go back and finish eating. Teng Qingshan walked over dotingly and touched his sister's little head.
Teng Qingyu also grinned, she was used to Teng Qingshan's doting actions.
"Aoyama, I'm back. ”
"Haha, Qingshan, don't forget tomorrow, I'm going to go into the mountains to hunt. ”
On the martial arts training ground, many people greeted Teng Qingshan warmly. In the past four years, Teng Qingshan's status in Tengjiazhuang has become higher and higher, and at the annual festival two years ago, Teng Qingshan once lifted two thousand catties of boulders at one time, which amazed the clansmen. Everyone is speculating that the current Teng Qingshan is estimated to be able to lift three or four thousand catties of boulders.
After all, for a simple clansman, being able to lift three or four thousand catties is terrifying enough.
For Teng Qingshan, there is no need, he will not expose all his strength.
Moreover, at last year's New Year's Festival, Teng Qinghu, a cousin who practiced tiger boxing, also lifted two thousand catties of boulders. Become a man in the clan, second only to Teng Qingshan in strength.
......
On the wooden table of Teng Qingshan's house, a family of four is eating dinner together, because Teng Qingshan only goes home every night, so in Teng Qingshan's house, among the three meals a day, dinner is the most sumptuous.
"Aoyama, eat. Yuan Lan picked up a piece of chicken thigh meat and put it in Teng Qingshan's bowl with concern, and sandwiched a piece of chicken wings for her daughter Qingyu.
"Xie Niang. Teng Qingshan said with a smile, in his previous life, he didn't feel his father's love and mother's love, but in this life, he felt it. Teng Qingshan was very satisfied.
"Qingshan, have you heard? Now, we have a very powerful gang in Yicheng. "The mature and steady father 'Teng Yongfan' opened his mouth and said, Teng Yongfan will treat Teng Qingshan as an adult.
"Dad, you mean the Iron Mountain Gang?" Teng Qingshan frowned, "When I was hunting yesterday, I also heard other people mention it. ”
"Hmm. Teng Yongfan was a little worried, "This Tieshan Gang is very arrogant, and it doesn't take the White Horse Gang in its eyes, and in just half a year, it has become the second largest gang in the entire Yicheng." It is said that there are as many as 3,000 people in the core gang, and all of them are powerful masters. It has expanded to such a large size in just half a year, and the Tieshan Gang is in urgent need of silver, and many Zhuangzi in Yicheng are threatened by them. ”
Teng Qingshan nodded slightly.
The White Horse Gang collects annual money, which is to maintain the normal consumption of the White Horse Gang.
And this Iron Mountain Gang, drastically expanded, of course, it needs more silver.
"It is said that they collected a lot of silver, I just got the news today, yesterday, thirty miles away in Heimuzhuang, because this Iron Mountain Gang asked for too much silver, and could not afford to pay. Refuse to submit...... Who would have thought that this Iron Mountain Gang would slaughter more than 1,000 people in the entire Heimu Village!"
"What!Tu Zhuang?" Teng Qingshan was shocked by the news no matter how calm he was.
