Chapter 17 Hantan Exercises
The scorching sun hung over the clear blue sky, and the scorching heat seemed to scorch the earth.
A handsome young man carried two buckets of water and walked up the winding stone steps of Cangying Peak. This water-carrying boy is none other than Simon Guanxi, who is five feet tall and dignified, and is already thirteen years old.
After walking for a while, Ximen Guanxi put down the two loads of water on his shoulders, stopped in the shade of the locust tree, and panted and wiped the sweat with his cuffs.
Suddenly, Simon felt a hot air steaming out from his internal organs, and this heat came quickly, accompanied by an unbearable pain, and in an instant, the temperature of his skin could bake an egg.
Ximen Guanxi frowned, and hurriedly poured out a handful of ice fruit pills refined from ice crystal fruits from a small porcelain bottle and threw it into his mouth, and soon a heart-penetrating coldness emanated from his spleen and stomach, neutralizing the heat of his viscera.
Ximen Guanxi picked up two more buckets of water, each weighing hundreds of catties, and walked up the winding stone steps.
Since eating the fire lotus by mistake, the medicinal power has gradually penetrated into every inch of muscles and bones, and it will attack from time to time, becoming a chronic disease, and it is difficult to be thorough, so I have to carry the ice fruit pill with me and eat a handful when I have a seizure, otherwise the violent life of the attack will be worrying!
The buildings of the Xuantian Gate are layered at Cangming Peak, with each floor connected to each other by a winding path of stone steps. The lowest floor is a wide practice ground, the second floor is the fire courtyard, the third floor is the wooden courtyard, the fourth floor is the water courtyard, the fifth floor is the yin courtyard, and the sixth floor is the yang courtyard, and there are still living rooms and guest rooms for receiving visiting guests.
Only at the bottom of the floor can there be clear spring water, and the water that the entire Xuantian Sect disciples drink is picked up from below.
The disciples of Xuantian Sect who have reached the age of thirteen have to take turns to carry water, until the Jindan period, and it will be their turn about once a month. But Simon Guanxi is different, carrying water is a compulsory subject for him every day, and the time is the longest, from early morning until noon.
Ximen Guanxi was unable to cultivate internal strength, and carrying water to exercise his muscles and bones was an excellent way to cultivate external strength.
At noon, the scorching sun makes people faint. Simon Guanxi poured two buckets of water into the water tank, and finally all the water tanks were full, and his stomach growled with hunger, so he took a deep breath and ran to lunch.
The dishes in the canteen were abundant, the cultivators were strong and healthy, and the disciples of the Xuantian Sect had a good appetite.
Ximen Guanxi devoured lunch, rested for a while at noon, and took a sharp black iron axe and stuck it in his waist.
"Xiaobai, let's go!" Ximen Guanxi straddled Xiaobai's back, which was already nine feet long, and snorted.
Xiao Bai jumped up lightly, flew in the air, and rushed to the Iron Mountain twenty miles away.
After passing a few hills, a brown mountain peak stands under the blue sky and white clouds, a deep stream flows around the peak, the water flow is clear, you can clearly see the pebbles at the bottom of the stream, and a small fish swim in the middle.
Ximen Guanxi turned over in the flat mountainside, dozens of iron trees fell to the ground in front, and the trunk of an iron tree next to it was the thickness of a bowl, and there were many irregular axe marks on the trunk, and the height of the tree was covered with needle-like russet leaves, and the shape of the crown was a cone-shaped with a sharp cone.
Xiaobai raised his head and roared, jumped and flew towards the mountain stream around the peak, stopping at the stream to absorb the cool stream water.
Simon Guanxi walked to the shade of the cut iron tree, picked up the axe and cut it, the name of the iron tree is because the trunk is as hard as iron, and it is extremely difficult to cut the trunk of such a bowl.
Ximen Guanxi was sweating like rain, panting and chopping the iron tree, every time he swung the axe, he used all his strength, and the strength of the rebound shook the tiger's mouth and his arm was sore.
After more than an hour of hard work, the iron tree was finally cut down, and Simon Guanxi threw the axe in his hand, exhaled deeply, sat down, and gasped for breath.
With such strenuous exercise and high-intensity load, the tiger's mouth is in severe pain, not to mention the soreness in the arms, and the muscles of the upper body are faintly sore.
After sitting and resting for a while, he raised his head and whistled, Xiaobai quickly flew over when he heard the call, and Ximen Guanxi turned over and rode on the back of a leopard.
"Xiaobai, go to Hanshan. "When Ximen Guanxi happened to pass by a mountain next door, he felt a hint of cold, and accidentally found a cave along the cold, so he named the nameless mountain Hanshan.
Ximen Guanxi followed the mist wafting outside the cave and soon found the cold cave, the entrance of the cave was very narrow and thorny, only about three feet high, and he could only bow down and drill in.
It is inaccessible here, and the cold cave is not well known, and the cold breath comes out of the cold cave, so cool is just to escape the heat.
Ximen Guanxi got into the cave with his body, passed through the cave that was ten zhang long, and suddenly opened up in front of him, the six Yuan Lingguang stones placed by Ximen Guanxi earlier emitted a soft and bright white light, and you can clearly see the wide stone cave, with strange-shaped stalactites hanging on the top, and the cold water flows out of the depths of the cave along the low groove, and there are continuous patches of siltation at the long-term water stains.
Simon Guanxi cautiously stepped over a few silts, his trouser legs still splashed with mud.
"Put a few stone steps in the water-stained area, and hew the dolomite into a stone bed, and then you can rest here after cutting down the iron trees. Simon Guanxi jumped on the dry Dolomite boulder on a high place, thinking about how to decorate the new home. He likes the breezy and lukewarm, comfortable and airy environment.
Simon Guanxi took the hammer and chisel he had prepared earlier in the corner, and began to hammer the protruding edges and corners of the dolomite with the hammer as he said he would, without the slightest delay.
Although he is thirteen years old, he has much stronger physical strength than the average adult male.
The sound of clanging iron and stone smashing filled the hole, and Simon Guanxi sweated like rain, filling the dolomite smashed into pieces into the silt, making dry stone steps, reflecting the white light of the stars.
Ximen Guanxi also dredged and dug deep waterways, so that no stagnant water would form underground, and the cold and clear ground water would be discharged along the ditches.
Ximen Guanxi took a broom made of weeds and cleaned the stone room again, and with the discharge of the turbid water, soon the foul smell in the cave was swept away, and the clean and fresh breath came to his face.
The stone bed should be chiseled smoothly and carved slowly before it can be chiseled, so it is better to rest for a while. Ximen Guanxi thought to himself, lying on the stone surface and rubbing his white fluff, and asked, "Do you like our new home?" ”
Xiao Bai stretched out his tongue happily and licked his saliva.
There is also a narrow hole connected to the cave, and the cold air comes from the narrow hole. It's cold inside, it's as cold as an ice cellar, and Ximen Guanxi has retreated halfway a few times, and today he can't help but be curious, and plans to go in and have a look.
With such a plan, Ximen Guanxi jumped up, took the brightest piece of Yuan Lingguang Stone in the cave, and with the help of the white and soft light of the Yuan Lingguang Stone, the cat bent down and drilled into the narrow hole where the cold air was dispersed.
Xiaobai jumped lightly from the boulder like a cotton tael, wagging his tail and following behind.
The narrower the hole became, the colder it became, and the feet and walls were covered with slippery ice, and it was easy to slip and fall when you walked forward, and it was difficult to walk an inch. Rao is Ximen Guanxi's physique is hardy, and he has goosebumps all over his body when he walks in for three miles.
"Hold on!" Ximen Guanxi secretly reminded himself not to retreat, gritted his teeth and walked two miles inside, an open space in front of him, white smoke ethereal.
The white smoke was too thick, and with a cold chill, this space could not reach out to the five fingers, even with the light of the Yuan Lingguang Stone, Ximen Guanxi could only grope his way forward.
"Xiaobai, where are you?" Ximen Guanxi couldn't tell the difference between southeast and northwest, and was a little overwhelmed.
Xiao Bai roared, and his body shook away the white mist around him, and the spatial visibility of Zhang Xu Fangyuan improved a lot.
"Great, Xiaobai opened the way. Simon Guanxi straddled Xiaobai's back.
Xiao Bai looked around curiously, and a thick fog rolled out of the ground not far away, and when he got closer, it turned out to be a deep pool with a diameter of seven feet.
The fog swept away, and the dark green water waves on the surface of the pool surged like boiling water, but it was cold to the bone.
Ximen Guanxi lowered his head and looked at the surface of the pool, and suddenly felt a cold chill in his heart, and his face was frozen with just one photo, and he couldn't even make a crying and laughing expression, and he was horrified in his heart at the moment.
Ximen Guanxi stared at the dark green surface of the pool in a daze, and the drumming white mist quickly covered the surface of the pool.
Ximen Guanxi squatted down, bent over and blew away the white mist, only then did he see the clear pool of water overflowing in a corner, as if there was a spring under the ground, and there was an endless source of water.
Putting his hand on the tumbling surface of the pool, the cold water droplets splashed on the palm of his hand, and it was so painful that it froze.
Suddenly, the fire lotus hot poison in Ximen Guanxi's body attacked again, his body trembled, cold sweat the size of a bean oozed from his forehead, and he hurriedly looked for the ice fruit pill on his body, but the porcelain bottle was empty, and he exclaimed: "It's not good, it's finished eating!"
Simon Guanxi stripped naked, his body boiling hot like a furnace in this frozen cavern, and the pain caused him to wail and roll on the ground.
This fire lotus hot poison was in danger of life, Xiao Bai was digging the ground with his claws on the side, and he was in a hurry, and rushed back to get the Ice Fruit Pill for too long.
Ximen Guanxi, who was hot all over, jumped into the pool, and with a 'snort' sound, it was like a red-hot soldering iron thrown into cold water, and a thick steam came up.
The cold pool water is as viscous as boiled rice porridge, and it is cold to the bone marrow. Ximen Guanxi's whole body was like countless fine needles piercing, his skin was cracking, he was almost unconscious in pain, and the slightest blood was oozing out, quickly spreading and diluting on the surface of the lake.
'Uh-huh...... Ahhh......h
The cold qi of the pool water and the hot qi of the fire lotus clashed, his face was red and blue, his body suffered great pain, and the blood oozing from his skin spread in the water.
Unlike Bingguo Dan, which can suppress the fire lotus heat poison relatively quickly, the cold gas of the pond water and the heat of the fire lotus seem to be on the same footing, and it takes almost a stick of incense to suppress the hot gas.
During this time of incense, Ximen Guanxi gradually learned how to guide this hot and cold air flow in the meridians, and the muscles and bones of the whole body were exercised.
After the fire lotus heat poison was completely eliminated, Ximen Guanxi climbed up from the cold pool with great difficulty, and at this time, his body was like a roasted red suckling pig, and red blood oozed from every pore.
After taking a few pills to repair the trauma, and relying on the ability to recover faster than ordinary people, after half an hour, my physical strength finally returned to normal.
After high-intensity stimulation, the body is full of strength and refreshed all day long.
From then on, Ximen Guanxi would exercise in the cold pool every three or five days, his body became more and more robust, and his willpower was gradually increasing!
A month passed quickly, and Xuantianmen's life was as plain as water. Ximen Guanxi's Hantan refining body requires an extremely strong will every time he persists, and the effect is also obvious, now he has a thousand catties of strength in one leg and four hundred catties in two hands, which is more than twice that of an adult strong man, and it can be said that he is a strong man.
Ximen Guanxi has always kept this secret, for fear that his master and mother will worry. However, Ximen Mingyue is a generation of grandmasters in the cultivation realm, so he doesn't know the reason. He only had to probe a wisp of spiritual sense into Ximen Guanxi's body to detect the slightest chill contained in his muscles.
"Guanxi's body seems to be much stronger, why is the husband like this?" Yixin asked with a jade body, her face crimson, and her sweaty face.
"He's using the cold art to refine his body!, it seems that he's been suffering a lot lately. Ximen Mingyue hugged Yixin's jade-like body, her misty eyes looked at her pretty face like a peach blossom with affection, her throat ho, and she whipped hard for the final sprint.
'Huhu ......' Ximen Guanxi purely relied on the strength of his muscles to dance the stone pier in the martial arts training ground.
"Senior brother, your body is much stronger. Yiqing stepped on a flying sword and staggered over, watching him dance with a stone pier with a hippie smile on the side, his vigorous muscles were like dragons, full of a sense of strength.
