"..."

Zhou Shen looked at the broken bamboo and couldn't help being shocked.

If you just cut off the arm-thick bamboo with your hands, it can be said that a person with strong strength can do it. Now, use your fist to break the swaying bamboo joints. This cannot be done by just strong strength.

This is external skill, or something that can only be accomplished by practicing both internal and external skills to a very advanced level.

Zhou Shen couldn't help but feel fascinated.

"How great would it be if I could also practice my external skills to the level of Zhang Daozhang? With such strength of muscles, bones and skin, I don't have to worry about hitting a bottleneck in my inner skills in a short period of time."

After coming back to his senses, he suddenly remembered that he was a person with an attribute panel, and it would not take long to reach the level of Daozhang Zhang.

Thinking of this, his heart suddenly became very hot.

Daochang Zhang continued to explain below.

Explain and practice at the same time.

Zhou Shen watched carefully without blinking his eyes.

After practicing and explaining all the five force-generating techniques and postures of Xingyiquan, Zhang Daozhang said: "Okay, come here and practice the movements I just drilled."

Zhou Shen then walked over and started practicing split fists.

After practicing for just two times, Taoist Zhang couldn't help but said: "No, a split punch is not a smash punch. A split punch is faster and crisper than a smash. And it's not just a downward split, there should also be a forward slash."

The force and the pulling force backward, like this..."

Zhou Shen followed Taoist Zhang's instructions and split his fist again.

After Zhou Shen learned the movements of the split fist, the next step was the collapse fist.

In addition to half-step Bengquan, Bengquan also has several different footwork methods such as bent-step Bengquan, smooth-step Bengquan, step-step Bengquan, and quick-step Bengquan.

Zhou Shen practiced repeatedly under the guidance of Taoist Zhang.

Then there are [Drilling Fist], [Cannon Fist], and [Horizontal Fist].

There are many variations for each power technique.

Daochang Zhang took the trouble to explain it over and over again.

"Okay, let's stop talking about it today, and practice more when we get back! Come over tomorrow morning to practice the twelve-shaped boxing."

"Thank you, Daozhang Zhang. I'll leave first then!"

After speaking, Zhou Shen bowed slightly to Taoist Zhang to thank him.

Zhang Daochang turned around and walked slowly towards the house with his hands behind his back.

Zhou Shen ran home hungry.

Grandma has already gone to the streets to sell vegetables.

When I looked at the time, it was almost seven o'clock.

After practicing for a full hour and a half, no wonder he felt so hungry.

But I have to go for a check-up this morning, so I can't have breakfast.

He called the black car driver he had contacted in town last night, and the other party said he would be there soon.

Then he went to the utility room and took a look. There were many pigeons, sparrows, and turtle doves in the grass cage, enough for him to eat at least four or five meals.

He then took the medical card and the loving breakfast box prepared by his grandma, which contained steamed buns and turtle soup, which he ate after drawing blood.

A soft-shell turtle is not a turtle.

It’s not the farmed Chinese soft-shelled turtle either.

It is a real wild turtle, which grandma bought specially from a familiar fishmonger yesterday afternoon.

It's very small, weighing less than a kilogram, about seven or eight taels.

You must know that big crabs weigh six to seven, and this wild turtle is only a little bigger than a crab.

Just ordering this big turtle cost 100 yuan.

Wild turtles are too expensive now.

Zhou Shen locked the door and waited at the intersection for less than five minutes before the driver arrived.

After he got into the car, the car drove quickly toward the east county.

…

After Zhou Shen got in the car, he had time to open the properties panel and take a look.

He saw at a glance that there was an additional skill in the skill bar: Xingyi Quan Beginner (1/100).

"Hey, you've actually learned it?"

Zhou Shen was pleasantly surprised.

He has only learned the five techniques of Xingyiquan, and he has not yet learned the Twelve-Shape Quan. Unexpectedly, he has already obtained the skill badge.

Then he immediately added all 0.4 attribute points to [Xingyiquan].

Xingyiquan proficiency immediately soared from 1/100 to 41/100.

What disappoints Zhou Shen is that the improvement of skill proficiency does not help his lifespan at all.

On the contrary, physical strength increased by 0.1, from 9.4 to 9.5.

The energy has not changed.

"It seems that if you want to increase your lifespan, you can only practice internal techniques such as the Immortality Technique. Before that, you need to make your muscles, bones, skin, etc. stronger and stronger!"

Various thoughts flashed through his mind. As his proficiency in Xingyi Quan soared, countless techniques and movements about Xingyi Quan's five force-generating techniques all poured into his brain.

He instantly changed from a "Xingyiquan novice" to a "Xingyiquan senior apprentice".

He has a very thorough understanding of the changes, starting points, and turns of each movement such as split fist, collapse fist, drill fist, cannon fist, and horizontal fist.

If we don't talk about actual combat and just talk about drills, he feels that he can at least be the runner-up in the Xingyiquan exhibition competition now that he is on stage.

Zhou Shen was so excited that he started practicing in the car.

The thirty-year-old driver in the front seat looked at the rearview mirror and asked with a smile: "What kind of boxing are you practicing?"

Zhou Shen said casually: "Xingyi."

The driver laughed and said: "Xingyi Quan, I've heard of it, Xingyi Bagua, right?"

"Um……"

Zhou Shen was perfunctory in his mouth, but he was thinking in his mind, how to combine Nei Jin and Xingyi Quan?

Thinking of the airflow that naturally appeared on his fingers when practicing Baduanjin, he stopped talking to the driver and closed his eyes to concentrate.

Soon a weak air flow gathered on the palm of my hand.

Then he slowly practiced Beng Quan, pushing his palms out gently like doing Tai Chi, and pressed against the plastic plate on the passenger's back.

I imagined in my mind that the palm of my hand penetrated like a sharp arrow.

"puff--"

"Crack!"

Half of his fist punched into the passenger seat, and the fabric in front of the passenger seat bulged out.

Before Zhou Shen could be happy, as the car body shook violently, the driver immediately saw this scene and shouted: "Hey, what are you doing?"

The driver then quickly pulled over and stopped.

When he discovered that Zhou Shen had punched a hole in the plastic part behind the seat, he immediately glared and said, "Why did you destroy my car when you are so good?"

Zhou Shen quickly apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back my strength just now. I'll pay you how much."

The driver was speechless when he heard this. He had just been chatting with him about martial arts for a while, but he didn't expect that the other person broke his car in an instant and said angrily: "You can't use my car as an experiment when you practice martial arts? I just bought my car.

It didn’t take long, and now I’m beaten by you..."

Zhou Shen didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted again: "Master, I will pay you how much money you have now. I am rushing to the hospital for a physical examination. I haven't eaten breakfast and I am almost starving to death."

The driver said: "Then I have to ask the 4S store."

"Then get in the car and ask, let's go quickly."

The driver got into the car at Zhou Shen's urging and made a phone call while driving.

The phone is connected to the car's Bluetooth, and the driver can clearly hear the conversation with the person in the 4S store through the voice in the car.

The driver explained the situation and finally quoted a price of 1,200 yuan.

"Now, you heard it too."

"Okay, no problem. I'll transfer it to you now."

Although Zhou Shen feels that a low-end Buick LaCrosse passenger cloth seat is not worth 1,200 yuan, not to mention that there is only a hole in the back. As long as it is covered with a seat cover, it will not affect the use at all, and there is no need to replace it completely.

But he didn't want to argue with the driver. After all, he was at fault first.
