Longevity starts with learning.

Chapter 54
"This day, when will it be a head, Brother Mu..."

After walking a few steps, the familiar complaint sounded in Chu Mu's ear.

"Okay, these words, my ears are ringing!"

Chu Mu glanced at Xu Yuan, who had already appeared beside him, and said unhappily.

What he said was really not exaggerated at all. He had heard such complaints for as long as he had been injured.

"Brother Mu, you are free, you are raised at home every day, but we are stuck in that dungeon day and night, with that old guy's corpse..."

"Yo, is it called old stuff now?"

Chu Mu teased:

"Didn't you call the old man very affectionately before?"

Xu Yuan was a little crazy:

"My dreams now revolve around that old thing..."

"If this continues, I'm really going crazy!"

"It's useless for you to complain to me."

Chu Mu waved his hand: "I'm not from Qili Village, so I don't know what they want to do."

"It's hard to say that I would have slipped away..."

Having said that, Chu Mu's expression was obviously a little more puzzled.

After all, what he saw with his own eyes that night must not be false, right?

Chu Mu looked around subconsciously. The people coming and going on the street were mostly familiar faces. He had recuperated for half a month and walked around the street every day in his spare time, but he didn't find anything unusual.

You ran over to check it out and thought it was too dangerous, so you slipped away?

Chu Mu thought about this possibility, which seemed a little ridiculous, but after thinking about it, it seemed that this possibility was not impossible.

Fear of death and greed for life are just human nature.

"Don't you need to go to pay?"

Chu Mu glanced at Xu Yuan who was still following him, and asked casually.

Xu Yuan grinned: "I took an afternoon off, so I don't have to go there in the afternoon."

"That's just right."

Chu Mu nodded: "Come and help me!"

"What's the matter, Brother Mu?"

"You'll know when you come here."

Chu Mu walked back home quickly. The most conspicuous thing in the yard was the big wooden barrel that was almost half the height of a person.

Xu Yuan wandered around the wooden barrel, full of doubts: "Brother Mu, what is this barrel for?"

"For practicing martial arts."

"Go and get me some buckets of water."

Chu Mu walked into the kitchen, quickly lit a fire, poured water into the pot, and poured a pack of medicinal materials into the pot, while Xu Yuan added buckets of water to the pot.

After a while, the Chinese medicinal materials in the iron pot rolled with the boiling water, and the rolling medicinal fragrance transpired, filling the whole room, and slowly spreading to the courtyard with the breeze.

Xu Yuan was still busy with his work, and even the work of adding firewood to the stove was assigned to him by Chu Mu.

As for Chu Mu himself, sitting under the eaves, he once again held that volume of exercise formula that had been read countless times.

Although Chu Mu can be said to have memorized the contents backwards and forwards, at the moment, Chu Mu is still carefully flipping through the pages.

It took about half an hour before Chu Mu put down the volume of exercise formula in his hand.

The Chinese medicinal liquid in the iron pot was boiling hot and viscous, and nearly half of the well water in the wooden barrel had been poured into it.

Chu Mu took a deep breath, his expression as if he couldn't hide his anticipation, from dreaming but not getting it, to being able to watch but not practicing, and now to being able to do it right now...

real Kong Fu………

"Pour it in."

Chu Mu looked at Xu Yuan who was standing in front of the stove with a bucket in his hand, and while making a sound, he also tried to calm himself down.

Calming and cultivating one's character is the first level of martial arts!

A bucket full of viscous and hot liquid medicine was poured into the bucket with clear water. In an instant, the bucket of clear water was dyed as black as ink.

Chu Mu took off his clothes, bare his upper body, and after testing the water temperature, he jumped directly into the bucket.

The slightly scalding potion also enveloped Chu Mu in an instant.

Chu Mu felt it carefully, but found nothing unusual.

After closing his eyes and adjusting his breath for a moment, Chu Mu slowly opened his eyes when his mind was at peace, and in his field of vision, that light curtain panel also emerged.

[Name: Chu Mu. 】

【Skill:
Basic knife technique (first glimpse) 272/500]

【Spirit value: 509.9%】

Glancing at the negligibly increased proficiency in sword skills, Chu Mu's eyes were also fixed on the "spiritual value" accumulated these days.

To practice body exercises, you should first meditate and then realize qi and blood.

And the liquid medicine that wraps him right now is a prescription specially for the exercise of body exercises.

Its role is mainly to consolidate the foundation and cultivate the yuan.

Of course, no matter how powerful the medicine is, it still needs to reach the step of manipulating qi and blood in order to consciously manipulate qi and blood and absorb the medicine's effect.

Just relying on the instinct of the body, even if you are in it, its effect is minimal.

Right now, Chu Mu hasn't even practiced the pile skills, and hasn't even sensed his qi and blood, so naturally he can't talk about completely absorbing the medicinal properties of the medicinal liquid.

Chu Mu's purpose is to use the external medicinal properties to stimulate the blood in the body, so that he can perceive the existence of blood more easily.

This method is also described in Body Exercise Jue.

Following the practice method of Zhuang Gong that he had already memorized back and forth in his memory, Chu Mu slowly took a posture of Zhuang Gong in the wooden barrel.

At the beginning of practice, it is naturally not proficient, but the movements and postures are quite standard after so many years of pondering by Chu Mu.

Calmly, Chu Mu also began to feel the changes in his body in detail.

Under the instinct of the body, although the absorption of the medicinal effect is negligible, it is naturally impossible to completely isolate it when being in the medicinal liquid.

Soon, Chu Mu keenly felt the numbness all over his body.

Chu Mu realized in his heart that this was subtly absorbing the effects of the medicinal liquid under the instinct of the body.

It's like sticking a plaster, it's the same principle.

And what he needs to do now is to sense the changes in his body after the medicine is absorbed.

To put it simply, that is... where does the medicine finally go after being absorbed by the body!

The function of the prescription of consolidating the foundation and cultivating the essence is to invigorate qi and nourish blood.

What nourishes is qi, what nourishes is blood.

It is undoubtedly the easiest time to perceive the effect of the medicine and the internal and external interaction of qi and blood.

When the standing posture was frozen, with a silent recitation in Chu Mu's heart, the "Blessing of Spiritual Brilliance" came, and the perception of meditation and tranquility seemed to be magnified several times in an instant.

The tingling and numbness spread all over the place covered by the liquid medicine, and under the faint tingling feeling, one could clearly feel the warmth rising slowly.

Crisp on the outside, warm on the inside.

Inside and outside meet, there seems to be blood transpiration, rolling in the body.

It was clearly the twelfth lunar month of winter, when it was bitingly cold, at this moment, Chu Mu was dripping with sweat on his forehead.

In Chu Mu's perception, the scalding potion seemed to have turned into a blazing furnace, and he was standing on top of the furnace and being roasted by the furnace.

"Qi is stored in the blood, flows through the five viscera, hides in the viscera, and circulates throughout the body..."

Suddenly, Chu Mu seemed to understand a little bit...
