Chapter 32
Zhou Shen carried a parasol and returned to the small bungalow he had just rented.
I was filled with emotion all the way.
Time is really a butcher's knife. The once stubborn and unruly girl has now had her back crushed by life.
Just now, Chen Xiaohong obviously wanted to close the stall immediately, and then find a place to have a drink with him and talk about the situation over the years.
But reality forced her to lower her head.
I feel a little sour in my heart when I think of the girl who was like a hedgehog back then, who is now selling small commodities under the sun because of the heavy burden of life.
Of course, I mainly thought of myself.
If the attribute panel hadn't changed his fate, he would probably be lying on a hospital bed now.
These days, he has also learned about the incidence of liver cancer and other late-stage cancers, and found that some of his ideas were naive.
If you feel that there is no need for treatment in the advanced stage of cancer, why not waste your money in the hospital by spending your last time traveling around and enjoying the sights with the money spent on medical treatment?
In fact, this is taken for granted.
Many late-stage cancers are very painful when they develop. Not to mention sightseeing, they can't even walk. The heartbreaking pain will force the patient to go nowhere and not want to go. He just wants to go.
Hospital, just to relieve a little pain.
…
In the utility room of the kitchen in the annex building of the small building, he found a tool box and some wire.
Including ladders.
It's just that it's not the new aluminum alloy telescopic ladder, but the old bamboo ladder from the past.
He used pliers to remove the buckles, ribs and umbrella stand on the parasol, and took off the rainproof cloth on top.
Then fasten the four corners of the rainproof cloth with wire ropes, climb to the tree with a ladder, and tie one end to two large willow trees and the other end to two other fir trees.
In this way, when it rains from the sky, it won't rain from below.
Zhou Shen came down from the ladder and took a look, and was very satisfied.
However, although no one is around when it rains, the big trees will get wet, and the tied sandbags are tied to the trees, which means half of them are exposed to the outside, so we have to put up a canopy on the other half later.
Opened the properties panel and took a look.
[Life: 1 year and 18 days]
[Stamina: 9.7]
【Stamina:8.9】
[Exercise: Baduanjin Xiaocheng (26/200) Immortality Technique Mastery (13/500)]
[Skill: Small Accomplishment of Xingyiquan (57/200)]
[Attribute points: 1]
Zhou Shen was a little surprised when he saw that his life span had been reduced by one day.
"Hey, how come your life span suddenly decreases by one day for no reason?"
After much thought, he only thought about fitness.
"Can it be said that excessive fitness will shorten your lifespan?"
"Well, this is possible. After all, simply practicing external martial arts will cause great harm to the muscles, bones and skin. Boxers like those will have various physical problems when they get older."
"I guess this is also the reason why in ancient times, when practicing external strength skills such as Iron Palm and Golden Bell Glove, you need to apply medicated wine on your limbs and body, or even soak in medicated baths."
Zhou Shen thought about it and came up with these reasons.
Otherwise, the reason for the sudden reduction in life span cannot be explained.
He decided to look back and observe.
His eyes ignored the physical strength, energy and skills, and saw the attribute points at a glance.
When he found that his attribute points reached 1, he almost couldn't believe his eyes.
"Why are there so many attribute points?"
Zhou Shen was surprised.
But then he realized that he had made a double portion of the three-element Yunfei soup today and ate one portion in the morning. He did not gain any extra energy at that time, as he had been exercising his strength.
Then I finished the remaining three-element Yunfei soup at noon, and gained a total of 1 attribute point.
Compared with last time, the attribute points have actually dropped.
After figuring it out, Zhou Shen was naturally very happy.
He added all 1 attribute point to [Xingyiquan].
The proficiency level of Xingyi Quan immediately soared from 57/200 to 157/200.
As the proficiency increases, a stream of memories immediately floods into the brain, all of which are insights about Xingyi Quan.
Almost instantly, he had a deeper understanding of the five techniques of Xingyi Quan.
However, what makes Zhou Shen a little disappointed is that as his understanding of Xingyi Quan deepens, he still has not learned the Twelve-Shaped Quan.
"It seems that you must learn it yourself before you can obtain the system's skill certification, and it cannot appear out of thin air."
But Zhou Shen didn't get too entangled.
He looked at the life span at the top and saw that it had not changed. He was not too surprised by this.
He lowered his head and looked at his stamina and energy. The 0.2 that had dropped before had not only come back up, but also increased by 0.1. His stamina had just reached 10 points, reaching the level of a "normal ordinary person".
The energy below also recovered and became 9 o'clock.
Only then did Zhou Shen realize that as his physical strength increased, his strength seemed to have increased "a little bit".
The hands that originally felt sore and weak have become much stronger than before.
Also, my thighs, which didn’t hurt even if I didn’t touch them, but were extremely sore when I pinched them, seem to have eased a lot now.
He stood up and moved around, then picked up the barbell on the gantry and did a few barbell rows. He found that it was indeed not an illusion. The strength of his hands had obviously increased a lot. The 20kg barbell felt light and airy in his hands.
However, because his arm was still sore and painful, he put the barbell down after doing a few experiments.
Look at the time, it's just under four o'clock in the afternoon.
It gets dark late in the summer. At this time, the sun is still high in the sky, and it will be at least three hours before it gets completely dark.
Zhou Shen had nothing to do, and suddenly thought that practicing the Secret of Immortality seemed to be able to relieve the pain in the muscles and fascia, so he sat down on the film paper on the ground and began to practice the Secret of Immortality.
I didn't dare to practice before because I was worried that my fascia was too fragile and I was afraid that if I practiced too hard, there would be some unexpected danger.
Now that Xingyiquan is about to reach the master level, the muscles, bones and skin have also been greatly improved, so it should be bearable, right?
He performed a few Immortality Technique movements, and soon his violently beating heart gradually calmed down.
An invisible stream of Qi appeared on the palm of his fingers. He guided the Qi and blood with his mind and slowly advanced along the path of the Foot-Taiyin Spleen Meridian.
The foot Taiyin spleen meridian originates from the Yinbai point on the medial end of the big toe, along the medial red and white flesh margin, goes up through the front edge of the medial malleolus, and goes up along the posterior edge of the tibia on the inner side of the calf.
Although he had practiced it once, he was still a little unsure when he came to the "Leu Gu point" and encountered an intersection.
So I subconsciously opened my eyes, and then I remembered that there was no TV installed here.
Fortunately, he has the download on his mobile phone.
Although the screen is much smaller than that of a laptop, safety comes first.
Zhou Shen took out his mobile phone, opened the exercise route map, and placed the mobile phone on the bench press to prevent him from falling down. He used a thermal box to hold it against the back to ensure that he could see it as long as he opened his eyes.
He sat down again and continued to practice the Art of Immortality and Daoyin.
Originally, according to the original cultivation method, he should guide the energy and blood to pass through the tendons, but he was interrupted just now, so he started again.
But this time, when the blood passed through the Leugu point on the inner side of the calf again, he had a sudden idea.
"My thighs and calves are so sore, and Qigong seems to be able to relieve the pain. Why don't I stay a little longer?"
Thoughts flashed through Zhou Shen's mind.
Then he slowed down the pace of guiding the Qi and blood forward, letting the Qi flow slowly advance on his calves.
Liugu, Diji, Yinlingquan, Blood Sea, Jimen.
These acupuncture points happen to be connected to the most important muscle groups on the upper and lower legs of the human body.
The route map that could be walked in ten minutes before took him a full thirty minutes today.
After passing through the Jimen point, go up to the waist and walk through the gate, the mansion, Tianxi on the chest, Cheongxiang, Zhou Rong on the back of the shoulder blades, Dabao, etc., slowly walking through them all.
After practicing the left side, then switch to the right side of the body.
The acupuncture points on the human body correspond to the left and right sides.
…
I don't know how long it took, but Zhou Shen slowly opened his eyes, his face full of fatigue.
Practicing the internal mind method is really tiring and requires full concentration throughout the process.
The time on the phone showed that it was already 6 o'clock, and I had been practicing for more than two hours.
The sun was hanging high in the sky outside, but now it has become dark, and it has begun to get dark inside the house.
He first looked at the attribute panel, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his proficiency in the Secret of Immortality had increased by 4 points, and his life span had suddenly increased by 35 days, becoming 1 year and 53 days.
"Hey hey hey!"
The substantial increase in life span made Zhou Shen extremely happy and extremely sour.
His mood at this moment is really difficult to describe in words.
But the bigger surprise is yet to come.
