Chapter Eighty-Four: The Road Under Your Feet
NTU has now entered the third round of competition, which is the best result of NTU in the Apocalypse Contest in history, and for this reason, NTU also specially hung a banner at the entrance of the campus to announce it.
Not to mention the distant Jinghua, Wu Fan and others, who went out on behalf of Nanda, have a certain prestige in the small garden city of Nancheng with frequent good news, and the fitness center where Wu Fan is located has enlarged his photo and hung it on the wall of honor, although Wu Fan has not yet appeared, but the manager has decided to promote him to a special coach, and his salary has doubled.
And the parents who are far away in their hometown, every time the Apocalypse Tournament starts, they will gather relatives and friends to watch it together, although their son has not yet played, but as long as NTU has not been eliminated, it is a matter of time, the later the appearance, the stronger it is, Wu's mother is even more every day to talk about it, and she will say it when she meets people.
"That kid of the Wu family is promising, and his martial arts training has reached a national-level competition!"
"That's it! I've heard they're all on TV!"
"I think my child also practiced martial arts with others, but unfortunately he didn't stick to it later. ”
Every time he heard these comments, Father Wu smiled and said nothing, but everyone could see the pride in his eyes.
Wu Fan's sister Wu Jie, who is also in Jinghua, also has a similar mood.
The hotel where Wu Fan stayed only allowed the participants and a team leader to stay, and the other people involved could only settle the matter at the nearby hotel, so Wu Fan did not see his sister Wu Jie.
called over, Wu Jie was rehearsing, busier than him, although the two were in Beijing, even not far apart, but they never met.
Although Wu Jie was admitted to Fenghua University in terms of strength, she also belonged to the top group among the second-rate, and the schedule was lucky, and she did not encounter a strong team prematurely, and advanced to the third round smoothly.
Of course, these are not what Wu Fan cares about, since his sister is too busy to spare time, he has to give up the idea of meeting, and wait until the end of the event, or Fenghua University loses and goes home, presumably there will be time.
Subsequently, Wu Fan called his parents, greeted him, and when he heard that Wu Fan was talking to a girl, he was even more happy, and kept asking him if the living expenses in his hand were enough, and he could never save money if he had a girlfriend, and finally hung up the phone after constantly asking him.
In fact, although Wu Fan's daily expenses are not large, he does have a lot of expenses in other aspects, and fortunately he has found a satisfactory job, which can greatly relieve his financial pressure.
In addition, after the manager told him that he had been promoted to a special mentor, his income suddenly increased to a higher level, which was more than enough to cope with the current situation, and even gave some support to his family every month.
Calculate carefully, since the change in the body, the amount of food has become smaller, and the accumulation has saved a lot of money, as for clothes or something, just those few sets of tunics that have not been changed for thousands of years, as long as they are not broken, he rarely buys them, and then there is rent, phone bills or something, which adds up to only more than 1,000 yuan per month.
As for Mu Yinling's side, he hasn't used much money yet, so it seems that there won't be too much to worry about for him for a while.
In addition, Wu Fan will also send Wu Jie a thousand yuan every month, since he found a job, he did not let his parents pay his sister again, but he was responsible for the other party's monthly living expenses, and later considering that it was a girl, there may be more places to spend, Wu Fan increased the amount to 1,005.
The previous salary in the fitness center was about 7,000, and if you put aside what you used and called Wu Jie, you can still have more than half left, and then send some to your family, you can only have about 2,000 left every month, and it took two years to accumulate tens of thousands of dollars in today's bank card.
But now it's different, the salary offered to him by the fitness center is directly raised to 15,000, more than double, which gives him the capital to realize some of his previous ideas, such as the "Lianhua Elixir" that had a one-sided relationship.
Traditional Chinese medicine is broad and profound since ancient times, and the time of origin is even earlier than that of ancient martial arts, or ancient martial arts originated from traditional Chinese medicine, and the two are inseparable.
Practicing martial arts pays attention to internal strength, meridians, qi and blood, the essence of the human body, and the unity of heaven and man, but these are from traditional Chinese medicine, in the martial arts, there are also some sects that are good at medical skills, and the status of the martial arts is quite high.
The cultivation of national arts will inevitably be bruised and bruised, and it is simple to get some bone-setting medicine, but sometimes it will also hurt the muscles and bones, the qi and blood are not smooth, and the internal organs will be injured.
Naturally, as a master of national art who once survived the war years, Wu Fan also has a certain degree of attainment in traditional Chinese medicine, but it is limited to that. This world is a little different, because of the internal strength, Chinese medicine has been thoroughly carried forward, the hospitals on the street are mainly based on Chinese medicine, and Western medicine has become a sideline.
Under such circumstances, Wu Fan had to become extremely interested in Chinese medicine here, but the price of traditional Chinese medicine, it is common to say, those medicinal materials that are specially applied to high-level martial artists, make Wu Fan feel shy.
I remember a martial artist once said: "Engaging in martial arts is actually engaging in research, scientists study the rules of the world, and we study the mysteries of the relationship between the human body and the world. ”
There are martial arts geniuses in the world, even if they practice martial arts to the extreme?
"I don't admire those who practice martial arts quickly and have high martial arts, what I really admire is those who summarize the experience of their predecessors and create new martial arts on this basis, it is these people who push martial arts from a height to another higher place, which is the foundation of the development of martial arts. ”
There are 10,000 kinds of martial arts for 10,000 people!
If Wu Fan wants to combine the national art system with the internal power system, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of the internal strength, and the internal power originates from traditional Chinese medicine, which is a hurdle that Wu Fan can't bypass, so Chinese medicine must be learned.
In this way, Wu Fan wrote in his notebook: learn basic Chinese medicine and understand the mystery of internal strength and human interaction.
Subsequently, I looked at the notepad and recorded some dense problems, some of which are daily feelings, some of which are problems that need to be solved urgently, and some of which are general directions for the future, so that I can't help but feel a headache, and the path of a martial artist needs to be studied hard in addition to hard training.
Perhaps, Wu Fan himself does not know that he has unconsciously embarked on the path of a generation of sages, in the early era, it was these people who promoted the development of the world and unconsciously changed the pattern of human existence.
Closing the notepad and sending a text message back to Mu Yinling, Wu Fan lay on the bed and fell asleep, different from the deep meditation and rest in the past, this time he slept like a normal person, as if he had returned to the baby in his mother's warm arms
Tomorrow is the third round of the Apocalypse Competition, and NTU will usher in the biggest difficulty!
"Stick to the same heart and tide over the difficulties together!"
Far away at Nancheng University, all the teaching buildings are hung with these eight words.
