The master who came out of the real world

Chapter 16: Do you practice martial arts?

At night, at 08:30, the swimming area has begun to check the facilities.

At nine o'clock, the security officer came over again and coughed softly: "Handsome guy, we are going to close the area."

"It's so early, don't you close at ten o'clock?"

Chen Xiong climbed ashore, but for some reason, standing on the Promise Stake in the water did not feel as good as the first time. Although the experience of Taijiquan was also increasing, the efficiency was much slower.

"The cleaning of the swimming area is troublesome, so we will close the area in advance for sanitation management."

Thinking about it, this is the reason, Chen Xiong went to the bathroom to take a bath, changed his clothes, and just walked out of the Blue Bird Fitness Club, he was blown gently by the night wind, his steps were sloppy, and he felt powerless as if his body had been hollowed out.

"what happened?"

He was a little surprised, and a feeling of hunger slowly rose up in his stomach. He was thirsty, dizzy, and chilled.

Some like symptoms of hypoglycemia.

He quickly took out an energy bar from his backpack and swallowed it in two mouthfuls. The discomfort was soon relieved, but not completely subsided.

Only then did he remember that he had been so fascinated by standing in the water in the afternoon that he even forgot to eat dinner.

Not only that, he also soaked in the swimming pool for six or seven hours, and he never got out of the water except for restroom breaks, and his hands and feet were soaked white.

"It's exhausting too much. I don't feel it when I'm full of energy. When I stop, I can't do it. I didn't even take a sip of water in the afternoon."

While the energy bar could last for a while, he quickly found a small restaurant on the roadside and ordered a beef brisket pot.

The owner of the restaurant is a middle-aged man, short and stout, with no neck.

Seeing Chen Xiong's expression, they chatted a few words, and asked him if he wanted to mend it. There are fresh lamb three treasures in the store, and after roasting, sprinkle with cumin powder. The taste is absolutely amazing!
Sheep Sambo?
Chen Xiong was a little curious, and after asking, he found out that the three treasures of sheep were sheep guns, sheep kidneys, and sheep baskets.

Whether making soup or grilling, it is a great tonic for the body.

Chen Xiong coughed lightly twice, but refused with great agitation.

Just kidding, isn't he super brave?

Soon, the beef brisket hot pot came up, with more radishes, less beef brisket, and some beef offal, served with thousands of sheets, tofu puffs, fiery red and bubbling, and only sold for 48.

At this price, what kind of bicycle do you need?

After five bowls of rice, Chen Xiong poured a cup of tea without tea flavor and rinsed his mouth, and then he put down the bowls and chopsticks with satisfaction.

Although the boss made a small profit from this meal, he himself was not at a loss.

Taking advantage of the time to digest, the personal panel appeared in front of me.

Chen Xiong
Physique: 1.1 (1.3)

Soul: 0.9 (1.0)

This is his current state, his physique has dropped by 0.2 points, and his spirit has dropped by 0.1 points.

But he wasn't very worried, because according to the display on the panel, this should be temporary, and he should be able to recover soon after he takes good care of himself.

Skill: Tai Chi Lv1 (29% of the first glimpse)

This is his harvest today, the kind of state that is a bit like the epiphany in the novel, and he has completed almost 1/1 of the progress of Lv4 in one fell swoop.

If he could come here seven or eight hundred more times, he would dare to set foot on Zhongyue first and then go up to Taihe tomorrow, but I cough.

After taking a taxi home, Chen Xiong took a hot shower, drank a glass of milk, and went straight to bed.

When he woke up the next day, his spirit recovered to 1.0, but his physique only reached 1.2. Chen Xiong bought some food, took a car to Yanjiang Avenue, warmed up and ran a half-marathon, but the result was even worse than before.

"The decline in physical fitness has a great impact on the body. Let's just take a day off today."

He didn't dare to practice more, fearing that it would affect his recovery, so he simply didn't go swimming in the fitness club and went home directly.

When passing by Tongrentang, it was only after nine o'clock, and there were not many people inside. Chen Xiong glanced at the door, just in time to see the old Chinese doctor walking slowly from the back hall to the front desk with a thermos cup, sitting On the waiting table, I swiped my phone.

Chen Xiong entered the store to take a look, then slipped slowly to the treatment area.

"Get medicine or see a doctor. It's you."

The old Chinese doctor put down his mobile phone, and Chen Xiong glanced at it inadvertently.

Good guy, the screen of the mobile phone is shaking, and the milk flower is blooming!
"cough~"

The old man's expression remained unchanged, he locked the screen of his phone lightly, took a sip from the thermos, and then slowly said, "What's the matter this time, you've been staying up late these days? Young people, please be more restrained~"

"No, I went swimming yesterday and accidentally fell asleep in the pool. I feel a little unwell."

Chen Xiong sat down and got straight to the point: "Old man, last time I drank the ginseng from the forest well, I want to buy another one to replenish my energy and blood."

"Nonsense, is this how ginseng is used?"

The old Chinese medicine doctor looked a little unhappy, stretched out his hand to tap the pulse pillow, and asked Chen Xiong to put his hand on it.

After a few seconds, the old Chinese doctor let go of his hands speechlessly: "You are in good health, don't make up for it indiscriminately, it's too late, don't make up your body."

After a pause, the old Chinese doctor seemed to have thought of something, and touched his chin: "By the way, I asked a friend about your symptoms last time, and he asked me to ask you if you practice martial arts."

"Huh? No, uh, does practicing Tai Chi count?"

Chen Xiong didn't realize for a moment that his career had changed from a street writer to an unemployed vagrant to a martial arts practitioner.

Maybe it will become a running after a while.

"Tai Chi? It should be counted, but I have also practiced it, why is it not like this?"

The old Chinese doctor muttered a few words, and then continued: "My friend said, this is a situation where you have practiced martial arts. Go back and ask your parents or master, they have a way to relieve it."

"He also said that you can read Daoist scriptures or Buddhist scriptures, which can also relieve the pain."

The old Chinese doctor laughed while talking: "When qigong was hot back then, there was such a saying, but well, let me pass on a message, and you just listen to it for fun, don't take it too seriously."

Is practicing martial arts something real?
This kind of situation really only appeared after the introduction of Taijiquan skills.

But he is a wild man.
Chen Xiong's heart moved, he licked his face and said with a smile: "Grandpa, can you recommend me as a friend?"

The old Chinese medicine doctor glanced at him: "This friend of mine is not from Jiangcheng. He is still an old antique. He is not very good at using mobile phones. Let's forget it."

"Oh"

It's a pity, but this kind of thing can't be forced.

"Why are you still sitting here?"

The old Chinese doctor picked up the phone, ready to move, but the kid in front of him really has no eyesight.

"I'm buying ginseng!"

Chen Xiong stared wide-eyed: "I'm a martial arts practitioner. It's not very reasonable to buy ginseng to improve my skills!"

"you boy"

The old Chinese medicine doctor hesitated a little, but still got up: "It's a medicine with three parts poison. That's not how this ginseng is used. Forget it, you are in good health, you have the final say."

A 15-year-old ginseng cost him more than 3000 yuan.

While the old Chinese medicine doctor was cutting slices, Chen Xiong asked: "Old man, I really can't eat this ginseng? Just making tea makes my chest hurt."

"better not."

The old Chinese medicine doctor thought for a while and then said: "You should be able to feel whether Linxia ginseng has any effect, otherwise you will not buy it again. But for now, ginseng only has medicinal properties, not pharmacological effects. In ancient medicine, You should also use it with caution, I still don’t recommend taking it orally, just making tea and making soup is enough.”

"Okay, I'll give you two packs of goji berries, don't let me do anything, I really can't make you much money with this ginseng."

Chen Xiong: How much money can I earn?Old man, you can press the corners of your mouth first!
"By the way, old man, I've been exercising a lot recently, do you want to buy some donkey-hide gelatin or something to make up for it?"

Just as he was about to turn around, Chen Xiong remembered the feeling of hypoglycemia and anemia last night, so he hurriedly asked.

"If you have the money to buy donkey-hide gelatin, you can buy more beef and mutton. I don't recommend eating this stuff, not for an old lady who has lost all her teeth."

The old Chinese doctor waved his hand: "Let's go, don't delay me from looking at the little ones. Looking at the knowledge of health preservation, I will live to learn and understand."

Just go!
He also said to share with the ladies and sisters who are paying attention, and let's pull the hook now.

Back home, Chen Xiong recalled yesterday's state in the swimming pool, and began to slowly pose as a Hunyuan pile.
