Chapter 8 Initiation
In the lounge, Chen Chuan was feasting on cooked meat slices and pumpkin porridge.
After the minced meat has been neutralized by the medicinal materials, it has a faint medicinal aroma, without any fishy smell before. The soft and tender texture is mixed with a hint of sweetness. It can be swallowed without much chewing. When it reaches the stomach, it feels warm all over.
Yu Gang told Chen Chuanhuan: "The breathing method is very hurtful when you start practicing it. Don't underestimate these black mouse meats. They are the most effective in repairing body damage. Martial arts masters in the old days often used this kind of medicine and food. But this
The meat is not easy to digest, so it needs to be eaten together with pumpkin."
Chen Chuan seemed to have thought of something, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said: "I lived in the suburbs of the city when I was very young, and I heard the old people there say, 'Pumpkin rice, dried mice, has a sweet and meaty taste.'
Is this what the rat does?"
Yu Gang said: "Yes, in fact, this is a nursery rhyme, and the second half of it is, 'Beizhang Mountain, scrapping local officials, heartless and only keeping wealth'."
The people in Beizhang Mountain all know that the meat of big rats in the mountain is edible and is also a good medicinal material, so it is very famous. In the old days, when Dashun was still an empire, local officials forced the people to dig three feet into the ground to find this kind of rats. Later,
During the algae liquid revolution and the establishment of the Republic of China, major companies used brand-new food synthesis technology. Food became cheaper and fewer people ate it. Now only the older generations in the suburbs and west of the city like this food, and young people like it.
I’m afraid people will be disgusted.”
Chen Chuan doesn't have any feelings about this. As long as it is clean and normal food, he can eat it. The taste is not a big deal to him, let alone that this food is actually useful medicine for him.
.
While talking, Yu Gang also looked at Chen Chuan. He really didn't expect that this young man could find the trick in one day. The next few breathing method demonstrations were also very good, indicating that he had truly mastered it.
This is very rare.
You must know that even if you get the secret of the breathing method, you may not be familiar with it immediately. You have to adapt it many times before you can master the correct path. Chen Chuan actually adapted to it very quickly, which was really unimaginable in advance.
Now he finally knew in his heart what the teacher meant when he said that some people have talents that ordinary people do not have.
There is no doubt that this young man has "talent" and is someone who is likely to find the true meaning of fighting practice.
Lu Ke was eating the rice next to him and said with an air of admiration: "Master Chen, you are so amazing. I wish I could be like you anytime."
Chen Chuanchuan: "I used Brother Lu's medicine this time. I will find a way to make up for what's missing. By the way, Mr. Yu, what's the name of this medicine?"
Yu Gang said: "This step is called 'Kai Lian', so the ointment is also called 'Kai Lian Powder'. If you are a Wuhan University student, this medicine is very cheap to buy internally. If it is convenient for you then, just buy some supplies."
.”
Chen Chuan said seriously: "I have written it down."
Seeing that he had almost finished the bowl, Lu Ke immediately said, "Master Chen, can I get you some food?"
Chen Chuanchuan: "I'll do it myself."
He walked aside, carefully scraped the remaining medicine and food into the bowl, leaving nothing behind, and returned to the table to continue eating. Before long, he had eaten all the pound of black meat and the pumpkin rice mixed with it.
It was clean, I felt warm all over my body, and my energy was restored a lot.
Yu Gang waited for a while, then looked at him and said: "You have already mastered the breathing method. Generally speaking, you still need to get familiar with it in practice and gradually master it. But we don't have time. I plan to start practicing it on you tomorrow."
Formal training, so you need to adapt simultaneously during training."
In his original plan, even if Chen Chuan could master the breathing method, the most optimistic estimate would only take about half a month to a month, but now he has greatly saved time. Although the schedule is still very tight, it is much better than before.
With more freedom, many plans can be less compressed.
Chen Chuan felt slightly excited and said: "Mr. Yu, is training just fighting and confrontation?"
Yu Gang said: "You are still far away. No matter what kind of training, the most important thing is the body. This is the premise of everything. The same is true for fighting, which includes strength, speed, endurance, coordination, flexibility, reaction, etc.
Only a solid enough foundation can carry various techniques. Fortunately, you have mastered the breathing method, and the training difficulty will be much lower than before."
He stood up and walked aside, opened the drawer, took out a booklet and threw it to him, saying: "I have all the training equipment here. The specific methods of running, weight-bearing, jumping, stretching, etc. are all recorded in detail here.
All exercises are based on basic fighting skills. Just watch them first and ask me if you don’t understand anything. Some places require sparring, so you can skip it for now. When you reach the appropriate stage, I will arrange it for you."
Chen Chuan took it and looked at it. It was an internally printed volume, published by Wu Yi Society. It was published in the 79th year of Jianzhi, more than ten years ago. However, in the Republic of Dashun, a general textbook used more than ten years.
The year was so normal that he remembered that his middle school textbooks had not changed in thirty years.
Yu Gang added: "You are riding back and forth? You don't need to ride a bike tomorrow. Come jogging and do some breathing exercises. Apart from breakfast, it's best to take care of the rest of your meals here. Let me tell you first.
Correct posture and key points for running..."
Chen Chuan did not look down upon running just because it was common. He wrote down the key points carefully, and then listened to Yu Gang talk about some dietary taboos. Seeing that it was already getting late, after helping wash the tableware, he left the master and apprentice two.
Man, ride all the way home.
When we got home, it was already after six o'clock. Nian Fuli had not come back yet. He told Wan that he had eaten dinner outside, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then went to the backyard to wash clothes. After everything was packed, he came back and sat down.
When I got to the desk, my consciousness communicated with the "second self".
Now that the breathing method has been mastered, there is no need to retain the damage caused by the medicine.
Although medicine and food have a repairing effect, according to Yu Gang, some damage may never be repaired, which may cause hidden dangers in the future.
If it weren't for this, students who train normally wouldn't take a few months or a year or even longer to slowly master it after their bodies have basically grown.
As the second self began to fade away, he seemed to have some burden removed from him, and his whole person suddenly became much more relaxed.
At this time, he noticed that the signs of blurring only appeared for a short moment, and the next day I became solid again.
Huh? Is there any progress again?
He thought for a while and found out that he didn't defeat anyone today. That might be because he had mastered the breathing method. Because when he caught the breath veins, he felt sincere joy at that moment.
He took out the alarm clock again, closed his eyes and felt the overlap with his second self, and found that it was indeed the case. The time of overlap with his second self seemed to have increased by two or three seconds.
From this point of view, as long as it is a positive emotion, it is possible to push the second self to move towards reality. My previous thoughts were a bit narrow.
This made him wonder, if he continues like this, will he become another "me" that is truly visible to others in the end? Or is there some other change?
He's not sure.
At this moment, it was as if he was constantly pushing his other self to become stronger, and each other could promote and improve each other, so he was full of expectations for the changes that would follow.
He stood up and came to the door, took the pamphlet Yu Gang gave him from his satchel, read it carefully, and waited for Nian Fuli to come back, ready to tell the latter what happened today.
However, no one came back until the clock rang ten times. He thought he had to stay up all night to perform official duties, which was a common occurrence, so he stopped waiting, washed up, and went to bed. He was indeed a little tired today, so
Soon he fell asleep.
The next day, Chen Chuan got up in high spirits, had breakfast, and ran out.
After Yu Gang informed him, he learned that there was actually another way to reach the "Fist House", which had to be detoured from north to south. Although it was a little further, the road condition was better and it would save a lot of trouble.
When he came running, he found that the road was much smoother, and the residential buildings in the north were more regular. Although they were older, they were not so messy.
When he ran into a high-walled alley between residential buildings that was more than 100 meters long, a boy of sixteen or seventeen was squatting on the balcony railing and brushing his teeth. His hair was messy, but he looked out stubbornly.
It was open like a chicken coop, and the fist belts that had been tied just now were still tied on the hands.
At this time, he heard the rhythmic sound of brisk running in the distance. He rolled his eyes and muttered: "Are you very energetic..." He paused slightly with the toothbrush in his hand and scratched his head, "I think I have seen it somewhere?"
In just a blink of an eye, Chen Chuan ran through the alleyway below, leaving only his retreating figure. The young man didn't think about it anymore. He spit out the mouthwash, did a backflip, jumped off the railing, and landed lightly.
After doing some chest expansion, he said energetically: "Weidong, work hard for today's training!"
After a while, the sound of shouting and kicking came from the room.
Although Chen Chuan was just jogging today, because the road was flat, he arrived at the Boxing House in just over twenty minutes.
Lu Ke walked out of the building and said hello: "Good morning, Master Chen. Come with me, the teacher is waiting for you."
Chen Chuanchuan: "Thank you, Brother Lu."
This time I did not go upstairs, but walked to the first floor. This is the place where daily training is held. It can be seen that the two classrooms that were originally connected should be opened up. It is about 120 square meters. It can be seen not far away.
Sandbags were hung and many cushions and equipment were placed along the wall.
Yu Gang was folding his hands and standing at the window looking at something. He went up to greet him: "Hello, Mr. Yu."
Yu Gang turned around and asked, "Did you remember to use the breathing method when you came here today?"
Chen Chuan nodded.
"What does it feel like?"
Chen Chuan thought for a while, held his hands, and said: "My body seems to have become a whole. It is easy to exert force, and I don't feel tired for a long time."
Yu Gang said: "The breathing method can very well adjust the circulation of your qi and blood and the rhythm of exercise. However, if you have just started, you still need more adaptation and practice. Before you fully master it, the breathing method will cause damage to you."
, you should not use it for more than an hour in the first few days, because your body needs time to adapt and recover."
Chen Chuan asked: "Mr. Yu, when will the breathing method be completely mastered?"
Yu Gang looked at him and said: "There are different levels of breathing techniques. If you can maintain this basic breathing technique for 24 hours, then you have completely mastered it, but this is only theoretical, because the human body has its limits.
, due to the burden that the breathing method puts on the body, it is already very good to be able to maintain it for three to five hours a day, and this is enough for a good fighter."
In fact, there is another thing he didn't say, because after entering Wuyi University Hall, you can also learn higher-level breathing techniques, so no one will spend effort to learn basic breathing techniques, but now there is no need to explain this to Chen Chuan, otherwise
The latter might not have the enthusiasm to exercise, so he chose to skip it.
Chen Chuan said seriously: "Mr. Yu, I have written it down."
He was thinking, secondly, if I can help him deflect the damage, then he should be able to spend much more time practicing breathing techniques every day than ordinary people.
At this time, Yu Gang moved to the middle of the field and said, "Before the formal teaching begins, let me see your background first. Come and try to punch me."
