Chapter 41: Mutation, Basic Light Kung Fu
Chapter 41: Mutation, Basic Light Kung Fu
After a day of fulfilling practice, I looked up to see the sky full of stars.
Zhou You returned home from the martial arts training ground, boiled a pot of water and took a bath, washing away the dirt and relieving fatigue.
He drank hot tea and felt the subtle tearing pain all over his body. The exercise brought him significant results.
Practicing the Yan Xing Quan from the beginning based on the level of strength gives you a sense of comfort as if you are looking down on something from a high vantage point.
As we all know, the process of practicing martial arts, in addition to improving the proficiency of skills, is also about strengthening and improving the body.
Zhou You developed great strength through the Subduing Tiger Fist, and the three physical data generally improved to 22 points, thus passing the physical test.
The remaining task is to familiarize yourself with the moves of the Yan Xing Fist and improve your proficiency.
"Peck the Ground Iv3, Goose Flying Fist Iv2."
In just one day, he had already gained a grasp of the basics and was able to practice the Goose Flying Fist with great skill.
But this progress was not enough. Zhou You felt a sense of urgency and had to improve the Yan Xing Fist to the level of strength in a short period of time.
If he wants to deal with Tu Laosan secretly, he must use Lu Zhigang as his pseudonym.
"Use experience points to improve the proficiency of the Goose Fist."
Zhou You soaked in a large wooden barrel, surrounded by hot steam.
He raised his hand, pinched the base of his thumb and kneaded it slowly, feeling the thickness and direction of the muscle fibers, and then moved all the way up, kneading and massaging the arms and shoulders.
Boxing emphasizes the combination of movement and stillness, hardness and softness, and is compared to the tension and relaxation of a bow and arrow.
Practicing boxing during the day is dynamic and strong, while massaging the muscles and bones at night is the corresponding static and soft exercise.
Many farm masters and unconventional people just practice boxing without knowing how to relax. They train their fist muscles to be as hard as rocks. They can break tree trunks and pierce stone slabs with their bare hands. However, the fine details of their bodies are also damaged and their life span is short.
The martial arts school's training system is very comprehensive, using massage techniques to soothe muscles and bones, promote blood circulation, and heal minor injuries.
Originally, this kind of massage work is best done by partners helping each other.
After all, human joints have limitations, and there are blind spots in the body that cannot be reached.
With boxing partners helping each other, you can achieve twice the result with half the effort, and if you find any hidden injuries, you can be reminded in time.
It makes sense for martial arts schools to set up a system of boxing partners, but the key lies in people's hearts.
Boxing buddies are close-knit, and the requirements for this are higher than those for blood brothers, and many people cannot do it.
Zhou You and Li Hao are such a pair. They each have secrets that they don't want the other to know, and they practice martial arts separately.
At night, Li Hao returned to his room and had no intention of coming over.
"Is the Thousand Troops Breaking Evil Fist really so powerful that it's worth him guarding against it so closely?"
Zhou You shook his head when he thought of this and continued to rub the sore areas on his body.
At the strength level, the effect of the tiger bone ointment was marginal, so he applied it to the sore area with his fingertips, slowly absorbing the medicinal power.
According to the system's feedback, drug resistance is getting stronger and stronger, and 10 patches of tiger bone ointment can barely increase 1 attribute point.
This progress is too slow.
On the second day, Zhou You practiced the Subduing Tiger Fist as usual, followed by the Protective Hand Technique and the Square and Circle Steps.
"Master of the Blade lv9→lv10, experience value +90."
"The skill has been perfected. Further practice will no longer increase experience points."
"Square Step Iv9→lv10, experience value +90."
"The skill has been perfected. Further practice will no longer increase experience points."
Experience value +180, two basic skills have reached the maximum level, which means the related training has come to an end.
Zhou You sighed lightly, and was counting on the Subduing Tiger Fist and the Goose Fist next, but he suddenly heard that there was a sequel.
"The Fangyuan Step skill is perfected, triggering the skill mutation and transforming into basic Qinggong lv1/lv?"
This question mark is very evil. Is there no level division in basic lightness skills?
Or does it mean that the basic light skill derived from the square and circle steps is an evolvable skill with no level restrictions?
Zhou You felt puzzled and guessed that the mutation was most likely caused by learning a second footwork, the pecking ground leap.
Pecking the ground and taking a leaping step is the basis of the Goose Fist, and wild geese are flying birds, which are closely related to Qinggong.
"That's right. After completing the Pecking Ground Leap Step, perhaps the basic Qinggong will undergo further changes."
Zhou You glanced at his experience points, which were already over 900, and decisively ordered the panel to be strengthened. "Peck the Ground Iv3 → Iv4, experience points -30."
"Peck Weaving Step 14→5, experience value 40."
"Peck the Ground Iv9→Iv10, experience value -90."
"The Pecking Step has been completed, triggering the skill mutation, basic light skill Iv2/lv?"
“Name: Zhou You.
Strength: 22.
Speed: 22.
Defense: 22.
Experience value: 402.
Occupation: Boxing apprentice.
Level: Beginner's level of strength.
Skills: Damage Control Iv10 (completed), Subduing Tiger Fist lv10, Basic Light Kung Fu lv2/lv?, Goose Flying Fist lv1.
Trial Project One (Two Star): Break through the Qi and Blood barrier and become an inner courtyard disciple of Jianxiong Martial Arts School.
Trial Project Two (One Star): Kill the Third Brother and eliminate future troubles.
Trial Project Three (Four-star): Perfecting Basic Qinggong. "
The panel shows that the two footwork skills, Square Step and Ground-Pecking Vertical Step, mutate after being perfected and transform into basic light skills.
There is one more item in the trial. It seems to be a long-term task to perfect this basic light skill.
Zhou You guessed that the key to perfecting this skill was to collect more steps and adopt the strengths of each school.
However, the boxing skills of each martial arts school are not passed on to outsiders and are strictly guarded. Even the basic footwork is difficult to learn.
In the final analysis, if you want to learn the footwork of each family, it takes money, effort and opportunity.
Secret medicine requires money, and buying skills also requires money, so the financial gap is huge!
"Two level 10 perfect footworks in exchange for only level 2 basic light skill should not be a losing deal."
Although the word "basic" in the title is a bit low-key, but according to the evaluation on the panel, this light skill must be extraordinary.
Zhou You tried to take a step forward, and suddenly he felt his body lighten, and the soles of his feet felt as smooth as if they were coated with oil.
Swish, his eyes went dark and he disappeared from the spot. When he reacted, he almost hit the wall.
The distance that originally took four or five steps can now be crossed in one step.
During the process, factors affecting speed, such as wind resistance and ground friction, are greatly weakened.
Zhou You even noticed that when he was performing basic light skills, his body weight actually changed.
The footprints on the ground were much lighter than usual, further confirming his thoughts.
"Sharp!"
Zhou You's heart started beating fast. This basic light skill was really a powerful weapon.
Lightweight and fast, these two auxiliary functions are of great practical value no matter in competition or doing things.
Just imagine, if he relied on his speed to attack the enemy at will, and the enemy could not hit him at all, wouldn't he be invincible?
Who could have imagined that after the foundation-laying footwork was practiced to perfection, such changes would occur?
It is most likely a benefit brought by the panel.
The panel in front of Zhou You changed again, and the data jumped a few times before finally stabilizing.
"Speed 30."
In other words, after Zhou You mastered the level 2 basic light skill, his speed attribute increased by 8 points at once.
It turns out that skills and physical attributes are a symbiotic relationship that complements each other.
