Chapter 101 Steaming the bones to pass the meridians, cutting the meat and washing the marrow
"Changyuanming, you are not young anymore. Unlike other junior brothers and sisters, they are still young and have plasticity. And your bones and muscles have been fixed. If nothing unexpected happens, your swordsmanship level can only stay in this realm in this life. Maybe you can make some progress, but the swordsman may not have the chance to be with you!"
Since Yagyu Tomokazu had decided to regard these unfamiliar disciples as test subjects, he naturally had a cold attitude when he spoke, but he didn't feel it yet. However, he had discovered this very sensitively by considering Changyuan Ming, a scholar who was a major training for his school.
"Master, no matter what hardship, you can eat, and as long as the master ordered, you can do it!" Chang Yuanming heard Yan Shengyuanhe's words, and felt like he was poured into a basin of cold water in winter.
Finally had the opportunity to join Yan Shengyuan and his disciples. In his opinion, Jian Hao dared not think about himself in the future, but it is still very promising to become a first-class teacher in the future. (There are only six first-class teachers, and the students who substitute students for daily teaching are all inner disciples. The teacher is responsible for teaching inner disciples. According to custom, Yan Shengyuan and this highest normal teacher should teach the teachers.)
However, from the words of his master Yayoi Tomokaro, there was obviously a tail left. Although Chang Yuanming didn't know what the young master, who had only met three times, he quickly expressed his opinion.
"Will it be painful, you might endure it?"
"Disciple is not afraid of pain!"
"If you can't hold on halfway, you'll still be in danger of your life!"
"That's why my disciples should be so destined. I dare not complain!"
"Since that's the case, come up!"

Pressing the palms on Changyuanming's vest, gently swept Yagyu's internal strength through Changyuanming's body over and over again, showing the 33-year-old man's physical condition in full detail.
The physical condition of Nagamoto and Kazushima Yayoi is actually very different. As a swordsman who practices swords all year round, his physical health condition has surpassed that of Kazushima Yayoi's father, Kazushima Yayoi.
This is of course a good thing for Changyuanming, but it is not so good for Yagyu Tomoka who wants to do human experiments.
But it doesn't matter. Yagyumoto may not be very good with other aspects, but for the comprehensive understanding of the human body, the whole world is more thorough than what he knows, and it will not add up to one slap.
"Changyuan Ming, now I want to use the secret method to evaporate bones, clear meridians, and clean your hair and marrow. It will damage your body tissues. But only in this way can your already rigid body re-stimulate growth and grow into a form suitable for kendo.
Now you think about it carefully and decide. This process will be very painful and cannot stop once it starts. And in a short period of time, your strength will not increase, but may be weakened."
Yanagi Sora said, pressing his hands on Changyuanming's vest, carefully sensing his physical condition. Changyuanming's heart beats strongly. Changyuanming had just demonstrated the "Living Sword", but now Changyuanming's heart beats no more than a hundred times per minute. It can be seen that the amount of exercise just now is nothing to this 33-year-old swordsman.
Overall, this is a strong and in good physical condition. If it were not for the name of the first-class general teacher of the Heart, it would be impossible to find such a good-quality experimental product to deliver voluntarily to your door.

Blood flows through the blood vessels. The blood vessels all over the body need to provide extra nutrients for the body after exercise, and become slightly more swelling than usual. As the heart pumps, the blood vessels show regular waves of expansion and contraction. This is the origin of the pulse.
In traditional Chinese medicine, a skilled doctor can feel the working state of the blood circulation system of the entire human body by pressing the blood vessels at the wrist. When the human body produces more obvious lesions, it will react from the elasticity of the blood vessels and the state of blood surge. Although it is not a universal use, as a means of detecting the human body's state under simple conditions in ancient times, it can be said that it is a whimsical and wonderful idea.
This is comparable to that in the West, until the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, bloodletting needles were still in the doctor's medicine box as the main medical device, and bloodletting was the main treatment method, so it was so clever that it was not known where to go. Of course, the doctor's medicine box also had medicine at that time, which was known as the universal medicine in that era - marijuana. Yes, you read that right, marijuana was the most respected panacea in the West at that time.
However, it is really difficult for traditional Chinese medicine to pass on, especially pulse diagnosis and treatment, which rely almost entirely on experience and doctors’ personal subjective judgment.
After all, if you can fully judge the internal condition of the other person's body without the help of Yagyumoto and the like, it is not much different from the blind man touching an elephant. You can see the whole leopard from one hole and judge the overall condition of the human body through a little sign of the pulse on the wrist. It can be said that seven points rely on experience, two points rely on luck, and one point is the inheritance of knowledge.
And now, if Yagyu Motoshi is just taking pulses, he is also a famous doctor.
There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine acupuncture called "pain is the acupoint", which means that whenever the pain is painful, you can apply acupuncture wherever you feel!
According to Yagyu Tomoto, the pain is where the human body has problems, and the body tissues are sending alarms to the brain. The so-called "pain-based acupoints" means that the alarms are louder through the stimulation of acupuncture. The so-called child who can call has milk to eat, the louder the sound of the call, the more attention and resources the body will pay to the pain areas.
Yagyumoto and the so-called hair removal and marrow cleaning are the same as the "pain-taking acupoints". They are to stimulate Changyuan Ming's whole body in a certain order through their internal strength and sword energy, and stimulate his potential. Of course, they can shape him by the way so that he can get closer to his father Yagyu and Shima's body model to facilitate future observation and experiments, but this purpose is not to be specifically mentioned.

"Teacher, please let go of your actions! Disciples will definitely endure it!" Chang Yuanming turned around and knelt on the ground.
If the person who said this is not the first-class master of Yayoi Yuen, who has been blown away by the magical heart, Chang Yuanming would not believe in any nonsense of "steaming bones, unblocking meridians, and cutting off hair and marrow for you."
These things are common in novels, and there are very few TV and movies, not to mention where in reality, this kind of thing may happen?
However, although he was half-believing and half-doubted, Chang Yuanming still knew what to say after living at such an old age, so he naturally looked persevering. As for whether he succeeded or not, it was the teacher's business, and he had to be upright.
"Come on, sit with your back to me, hold on! Zol—"
Chang Yuanming suddenly discovered that the two big hands that the master pressed behind him suddenly became hot. Moreover, with a strange syllable issued by the master, his whole body vibrated with the syllable. It seemed that all the bones and internal organs resonated together, and all kinds of feelings in his body burst out at the same time, numbness, sourness, pain, and hotness, just like bursting out directly from the bones and internal organs, making Chang Yuanming involuntarily open his mouth to the maximum, but he could not make any sound.
Then, something even more terrifying happened.
The two big hands behind him suddenly became cold again, as if they were two open water gates. The cold tide ejaculated from these two big hands. The worst thing was that these cold tides were mixed with countless ice, which instantly extinguished the heat in his body. Chang Yuanming felt that his body had just finished the barbecue party and immediately turned into an ice bucket challenge!
At this time, Chang Yuanming finally knew why Master had to ask himself repeatedly if he could persist before he started. If he had known that such a difficult method, Chang Yuanming would probably not do it, but now he is difficult to get rid of the tiger. He couldn't shout out even if he wanted to stop. He wanted to get rid of Master's hands, but his body was completely out of control and could not do any movement at all.
A chill that was scraping the bones and marrow had just passed. Before Chang Yuanming could breathe, the nameless fire ignited in his body again, making him feel that he was washing three times in his body and was directly on the boiling water and ice water took turns. The boiling water was bubbling, and the ice water was carrying ice.
This feeling is indescribable. Chang Yuanming himself felt strange. Since it was so painful, why didn’t he faint? Doesn’t the human body have a self-protection mechanism? These mechanisms have gone to the forefront?
The steam that can steam people is still raging in the body, and the hands behind them open the gate and release water again. It is a familiar formula - ice water and ice ling.
Then, another internal fire was born!
————————————
I don’t know how long it took, but Chang Yuanming felt that he had reached the end of the universe. His whole body was completely numb, dizzy and unable to move, and he could not move. He widened his eyes, but could not see anything, opened his mouth, but could not make any sound.
When Chang Yuanming gradually woke up and his eyes could finally see the situation in the room, he saw Yanagi Moto and he were sitting cross-legged on the rattan mat, the kendo uniforms all over his body were so wet that they could almost twist out the water.
The Aoki brother and sister were supporting Yagyu Tomokazu from left to right.
The sect leader and the two teachers were wiping their bodies with basins and towels respectively.
Changyuanming found that he was lying horizontally on a tatami that he was not sure who it was. He moved into the Kendo Room and was covered with a thick quilt, with only his arms and legs exposed outside. The sect leader, Mr. Aoki, was wiping his legs.
"Awaken?" Yagyu Motoka whispered, with an unconcealed fatigue in his voice.
Chang Yuanming moved a little in the quilt, and suddenly felt that he seemed a little different, but he couldn't tell what was different for a moment.
However, the master's tired look was probably related to his situation just now. Thinking of this, Chang Yuanming could no longer lie down, so he quickly knelt on the tatami and kowtowed: "Thank you for your hard work, Master!"
"Get up, practice your specialty sword technique and see what's the difference. Remember, don't use your full strength if you just conditioned your body." Yanagi Motohiro sat on the mat, waved his hand weakly, and said.
"Hi!" Chang Yuanming replied loudly.
Holding the wooden knife in his hand, Chang Yuanming found that his whole body was loose, as if countless garbage had been accumulated in his body, but suddenly they were all cleaned up.
After listening to Yan Shengyuan and his master's words, Changyuan Ming did not hold the wooden knife hard like before, because he didn't need to use force at all. Even if his hand did not use force, he felt that every part of his skin in his palm was firmly fitted to the handle of the knife. The palm of his palm seemed to have become much more sensitive, and every part of the tremor of the wooden knife was reflected in his heart without any fault.
Swipe the knife, slash straight and slash horizontally, sweep horizontally, then pick up, and finally end with the straight-eye sword style. This is one of the few secret swords he has mastered - Sanqian style.
The place where I used to find the turning point was now as smooth as the flowing water. I continuously used the five secret swords I mastered, all of which were done in one go, without any sensation. Instead, from the first sword to the fifth sword, there was a feeling of big rocks rolling down the hillside and the sword momentum was constantly accumulating, just like all the joints and muscles in my body were oiled.
This feeling that had never been seen before made Chang Yuanming amazed. What did the master do to him to make such a big change in a moment?
Changyuanming looked back at Yayoi Tomokazu sitting there in surprise, but found that his master's face was pale as paper, and he seemed to be hunched over. He sat there shakingly. If it weren't for the Aoki brother and sister who were tightly supported, he would have been about to fall down, and he would not have been as strong and upright as he was just talking to the nine disciples.
Changyuanming was shocked and quickly threw down the wooden knife in his hand, rushed over, and supported Yanagi Soto He: "Master! Master! What's wrong with you? What should you do with your disciple? Do you need to call a doctor?"
"Go and get me a bed and quilt. I need a rest. You have to pay attention. You can't use too much force or catch a cold." As he said that, Yagyu Motowa closed his eyes, tilted his head and fell to the side.
"Master! Master! Sect Master, teacher, call an ambulance quickly-" Changyuanming and Aoki brother and sister hugged Yanai Sotoka who was falling down in a crooked manner. In desperation, Changyuanming shouted loudly.
——————————————
When Yayoi Sora He woke up, he found that he was already lying on a hospital bed. As soon as he opened his eyes, he found something seemed to be on the edge of the bed from the corner of his eyes. He looked closely and said, "Damn, there were nine people neatly around his hospital bed, and there were many nine disciples, among which Chang Yuanming was still kneeling."
"What are you doing? Changyuanming, why did I tell you, be careful to keep warm and not catch a cold, you bastard!" Changyuanming was the closest to him, and he knelt on the edge of the cabinet at the bedside, looking at himself with his eyes straight.
This was because Yayoi Moto He spent all his internal strength for the first time, and he dissipated three layers of golden tex-coat before he could barely adjust Changyuan Ming's body into shape, becoming the ideal sample closest to his father Yayoi and Shima.
If Changyuan Ming had fallen on the cold kneeling here and had some unexpected changes in his body just now being adjusted by Yanagi So-so and his body, I don’t know how much effort it would take to adjust again. Moreover, Changyuan Ming himself has actually been fully stimulated in this adjustment, and it is hard to say whether he can survive the next adjustment.
In a flash of anger, Yagyumoto slapped him in the face.
With a "pa" sound, the slap was really hard. Chang Yuanming, who was kneeling there, hit the ground.
"Master! The disciple is unworthy and is so tired that the master faints on the spot. When the master wakes up, he is worried about his disciple's body. How can he repay such great kindness for the disciple!"
A man in his thirties, Chang Yuanming never thought that he would be so moved. Although he was slapped, he felt a feeling he had never felt before from this slap! Chang Yuanming got up, knelt on the ground and cried loudly.
This feeling was something Chang Yuanming had never felt before. He never thought that someone would give to such a level just for a disciple who had only met three times. Moreover, the master who had just woken up from a coma was so furious because he had not taken good care of his body.
At this moment, Chang Yuanming had only one thought - repaying him with death!
At this moment, this strong emotion, coupled with the potential to be stimulated by Yagyumoto and the marrow-cleaning, made Changyuanming's whole body and mind resonate with it, a weak but practical force sprouted in his body and mind.
There was only Yayoi Moto and a bed in the entire special ward, and of course there were several sofas and other facilities. However, as Yayoi Moto, the disciples of Yayoi Moto, were kneeling in front of the bed at this time, and no one went to sit on those sofas.
As a special ward of a private hospital, the place was originally spacious enough. Nine people kneeling, and it seemed empty. The other disciples listened to Chang Yuanming's crying, and each of them had tears in their eyes. It was really rare for such a master to be like this.
‘I'll go, have they misunderstood something?’ Hearing Chang Yuanming's crying on the ground, Yanagi Sotoha suddenly felt that everyone had some misunderstanding.
Yayoi Motoka was wondering, and suddenly turned his head and widened his eyes. With Yayoi Motoka's current realm, he was two and a half meters in a radius, and nothing could be hidden from him.
The changes in Changyuanming are naturally no exception.
