16. Come at night
Bang β
In the courtyard where You An practiced martial arts, a large sandbag exploded in two from the middle under his punch, and the fine sand covered in it flew in all directions.
"It's an external force. β
You An gathered his breath and came to another sandbag.
This time he didn't punch again, just pressed his palm lightly on the sandbag.
The muscles of the whole body suddenly tensed.
The next moment, the other side of the sandbag that was pressed by You An's palm suddenly exploded a large hole, and the fine sand inside sprayed out.
If you reach out and feel it, you will see that the sand is actually hot to your hands.
You An withdrew his palm, and a palm-shaped black handprint also appeared on the sandbag.
"This is the positive internal force produced after the practice of "Eight Doors of Burning Sun Gong". β
Open the system panel:
γYou Anββ
Martial Arts: Wave Stacking Jin (Luck Strength Exercise, Level 3, not upliftable)
White Crane Pile (Body Forging Exercises, Third Layer, Not Upliftable)
Bone Reduction and Disfigurement (Bone Reduction and Disfigurement, 1st layer, can be lifted)
Regret Mountain Boxing (boxing, beginner, can be improved)
Eight Doors of Burning Sun Gong (Positive Internal Power, Third Layer, Not Upliftable)
Divine Power: 3]
The human body has eight doors: rest, life, injury, death, scene, shock, and opening.
"Eight Gates of the Burning Sun Palace" after cultivating the internal force of the Burning Sun at the beginning, it is necessary to use the internal force to penetrate these eight gates.
Each of the two doors is counted as one floor, and there are four floors in total.
However, just getting started took You An 2 points of divine power.
It then rises to 4 points on the first layer, 8 points on the second level, and 16 points on the third level.
You An used a full 30 points of spiritual power to open six doors, which was worthy of practicing the "Eight Doors of Burning Sun Gong" to the third level.
But You An didn't feel distressed.
After all, the more mental power consumed by martial arts improvement, it means that the stronger the martial arts, and the more you can improve.
After "Eight Gates of the Sun Gong" was promoted to the third layer, You An clearly felt that something in his body that was constantly flowing out began to stop flowing and was locked in his body.
Wiping the cow's tears in his eyes and looking at himself, the qi that he saw before, which kept coming out of his body, seemed to be no longer bubbling out.
Stay honest in yourself.
Later, You An consulted Yan Heren.
Yan He people said that qi and blood are divided into qi and blood.
Blood is blood, and qi is qi.
Blood needs to be tempered by practicing external skills.
Qi is cultivated through the practice of internal strength.
The qi in the human body is obtained through food, but the qi obtained by eating food is not completely used by the human body, but most of it is dissipated outside the body.
And when the internal strength is cultivated to a certain level, it can lock up those qi that overflow and use it for one's own use.
This state is called locking air.
Completely locking up all the qi that is spilling out of oneself is the mark of a first-class master.
After learning this, You An knocked on the side again, asking Yan Heren if he had reached the realm of completely locking qi.
The reply I got was that I was still a little hot.
However, it also shows that Yan He people have cultivated internal skills while cultivating external skills.
Only then did You An realize that the previous perception that he was already on par with Yan Heren turned out to be wrong.
Now I think of Yan Heren when he was training with himself, he didn't use internal force at all, but only used external force to compare with himself.
It's time for me to surpass my master this time, right?
No matter what, don't dwell on this matter, and you can't be blindly proud, otherwise you will only appear arrogant and complacent.
Of course, You An didn't make a fool of himself, after all, he had only been practicing martial arts for less than two months before he reached such a state.
My talent is still good.
Closing the system panel, You An began to feel stunned, looking at the sunset that was about to set on the distant mountains: "Qi Daochang hasn't returned for a whole day, and I don't know what I found." β
After resting for a while, You An informed Xiaomei that she didn't have to cook dinner in the kitchen today.
He's going out to eat.
then rejected Xiaomei's request to follow, and walked out of the Sun Gang rudder alone.
Walking on Yancheng Street, You An found that there were many fewer pedestrians on the street today.
Come to the largest restaurant in Yancheng.
The shopkeeper of the restaurant saw You An put on the most respectful smile from a distance, and quickly greeted him: "Young master, do you want to eat?"
The largest restaurant in the city also belongs to the property of the Sun Gang.
The staff inside will naturally not be unenthusiastic about You An.
"Hmm. β
Looking at the shopkeeper's smiling face, You An nodded.
"Young Master, please come with me. As he spoke, the shopkeeper bent down and asked You An to go up to the second floor.
In the process of going upstairs, You An found that there were many fewer people in the restaurant today than in the past.
You must know that it is a restaurant now, but in the past, the largest restaurant in the city will be full.
"There seem to be a little few diners in the restaurant today. β
You An asked lightly.
The words fell on the shopkeeper's ears, and he couldn't help but be surprised, thinking that You An was blaming himself for not running the restaurant well.
hurriedly explained: "I don't know what strange things happened in the city last night, dozens of families died. β
"Although the people who died were the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled, it was too horrific to die all in one night at the same time. β
"All kinds of rumors spread in the city, and the residents panicked. β
Therefore, in addition to their own funerals, there are also many people who invite Taoist priests to practice behind closed doors. β
Hearing this, You An nodded: "I see." β
The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
When I came to the private room on the second floor and sat down, I was immediately served tea and pastries by an attendant.
The shopkeeper stood aside, with a flattering face.
"Go down and arrange my dishes, you don't have to accompany me here. β
You An glanced at him.
"Okay young master. The shopkeeper left very well-behaved.
Only You An was left in the private room.
Thinking quietly: "Dozens of people died on the same night, maybe it has something to do with what happened to me before." β
"If Daoist Qi still doesn't come back tonight, I'll have to inform my father about them. β
Little by little, time passed.
After a long time, no one came to serve the food, You An frowned: "Why is it so slow?
After coming back to his senses, You An realized that something was wrong.
Concentrate and listen.
You An couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
Quiet.
It's so quiet.
It stands to reason that even if there are fewer diners in the restaurant tonight, there should be some noise.
Even if there are no diners, there should always be a sound in the kitchen.
Besides, under normal circumstances, there will be a waiter outside the private room where he is always ready to send him.
You An's current hearing can be heard, but except for his own breathing and heartbeat, he has not heard any other subtle sounds.
The pin drop can be heard.
Thinking of this, You An took out the cow tears he carried with him and wiped them around his eyes.
Squeak β
Slowly push open the door of the private room and look out.
The sun had already set, but the lights outside were half-lit.
Half of the restaurant is lit up by lights, and half is plunged into darkness.
The folds of the lamps were thrown on the ground at random.
It was as if the attendant in charge of lighting the lamp suddenly disappeared out of thin air in the middle of his work.
Purple smoke filled the air.
"Purple aura, what is it coming from?"
You An's gaze quickly swept over all the suspicious corners.
Step β
Step β
Step β
Slowly descend to the second floor.
There are also half-eaten dishes on the table, and the diners seem to have disappeared into thin air.
You An clenched his fists, his muscles tense.
The internal power is also working.
Ready to go.
