Pushing martial arts horizontally: starting from depriving the mantis shrimp of its talent

Chapter 11 Huge Money!

Chen Cheng returned to the house near the gravel boxing gym and found that the door he had locked when he left had been opened and the room was in a mess. Apparently, Hu San came looking for him after he jumped over the wall in the alley and left.

After a brief tidying up, Chen Cheng closed the door, lit the oil lamp, and then took out the martial arts secret book from his arms.

After taking out the silver notes from the secret book and spreading them out one by one, Chen Cheng took a look and found that there were a total of 350 taels of silver notes here.

As for the jade pendant, it is Hetian jade, which is also a good thing. If you go to a pawn shop to pawn it, five or sixty taels is not a problem.

"So, the harvest this time is about four hundred silver."

Looking at the banknotes on the table, Chen Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then showed a bright smile.

I was still worried about where the money would come from to buy bone tempering powder, but I didn't expect that a kind person would send it to me in the evening.

"Blackwater Gang, good people!"

After putting away the banknotes and jade pendant, Chen Cheng focused on the secret book.

After reading for a while, Chen Chengcheng's eyelids jumped in surprise at the harshness of this martial arts practice.

boom!
After closing the secret book, Chen Cheng's scalp felt numb.

"Is this martial arts training or self-mutilation?"

This method of practicing the Blade Breaking Claw is to grind various metal minerals into metal sand, then heat it in an iron pot, then shape your five fingers into claws and continuously move them in the hot metal sand.

In this process, it is certain that the skin will be exposed.

If you can't practice it well, your hands can be said to be useless.

Chen Cheng had no plans to practice the Blade Breaking Claw for the time being, so he hid the secret book and went to bed.

I had a big fight with someone today, and it's almost dawn now. I still need to go to the martial arts gym to practice boxing tomorrow.

A night without dreams.

Early the next morning, Chen Cheng came to the gravel boxing gym. Although he didn't sleep until midnight yesterday, he was now full of energy and blood, and he could maintain his condition for the whole day after just a few hours of rest.

"Elder brother, I want to buy bone tempering powder."

After all the students practiced gravel boxing with senior brother Ma De, Chen Cheng went to Ma De and expressed his demands.

Ma De looked him up and down after hearing this, and nodded when he saw that he was full of energy and his temples were bulging. He was already full of energy and blood.

"You've been in the boxing gym for eight months, so it's time."

"According to past experience, it usually takes thirty servings of Bone Tempering Powder to fully practice it. One serving of Bone Tempering Powder costs one tael of silver. How much do you need?"

Chen Cheng pondered for a moment

"Then let's get thirty portions first."

As soon as these words came out, Ma De looked at him in surprise.

He knew Chen Cheng's situation. He came to Wangjiang City two years ago because he was fleeing from famine. Even the entry fee was earned by working hard at the dock. He didn't expect that he could come up with so much money at once.

However, everyone has their own secrets, and he is too lazy to explore them.

"Then come with me"

Nodding, Ma De asked Chen Cheng to follow him, and then walked to the backyard.

After passing through several small courtyards, Chen Cheng vaguely heard continuous, thunderous explosions coming from the high wall next to him.

Seeing his appearance, Ma De explained

"This is the inner sect. All juniors who have reached the cowhide realm will practice here and will be taught by the master himself."

"If you can make it, you'll get in here too."

"arrive."

With that said, Ma De led Chen Cheng to a small courtyard, and a faint smell of medicine came out.

He took out a key from his pocket and opened the door. A strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine hit his face. Chen Cheng's nose was itchy due to the smell of medicine.

Ma De came to the pharmacy full of cabinets of medicinal materials, took out a package from a cabinet full of medicine packages, and handed it to Chen Cheng.

"There are thirty small bags in this big bag. One small bag is enough for one use." "When using it, soak half of it in water and drink it. At the beginning, practice with wooden dummies. After gradually getting used to it, use iron wood. piles, and finally pure iron piles, gradually.”

"After each practice, use the other half to make a plaster with lard and apply it externally on your arms and fists."

"By the way, don't throw away the used lard. You can continue to use it next time."

"There is also lard in the restaurant, one tael per can, would you like it?"

Chen Cheng remembered everything he said in his mind, nodded and took out two banknotes from his arms, one for 20 taels, one for [-] taels, and one tael of silver.

Mader took the banknote and put it away after seeing anti-counterfeiting marks in several secret places.

Returning to the outer courtyard, Chen Cheng came to the corner of the yard. There were many wooden dummies here, including ordinary wooden dummies and iron wooden stakes with a metallic luster.

In addition to Chen Cheng, there were more than a dozen shirtless burly men, sweating profusely, constantly hitting the wooden mannequins from all directions with their fists and forearms, making a banging sound.

Use a bamboo tube to soak half of the bone-tempering powder in water, then drink it all in one gulp, feeling a spicy feeling rush straight to your forehead.

"Huh~ Enough!"

Chen Cheng bared his teeth, and it didn't take long for him to feel hot all over his body, his heartbeat speeding up, and the energy and blood in his body running at a crazy speed.

"Sure enough, there is really a way to speed up the circulation of Qi and blood in Gravel Fist."

Feeling the effect of the Bone Tempering Powder, Chen Cheng's eyes lit up, and he didn't dare to delay. He found a wooden mannequin with a dark red surface and started beating it with his fists and arms.

During the beating, Chen Cheng could clearly feel that under the action of the bone-quenching powder, the qi and blood in the blood were consumed in a special way, which was used to continuously strengthen his arms.

This change made him more attentive.

As the medicinal power of Quegu Powder gradually disappeared from the body, the speed of Qi and blood circulation gradually returned to normal.

Chen Cheng stopped and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

I saw that his arms were dark red at this time, as if there was accumulation of congestion, and his fists were bloody.

Chen Cheng looked at the wooden man stake in front of him and sighed.

"I finally know why the wooden mannequin is the color it is."

The wooden dummy was a dark red color, which was completely formed by the blood stained and oxidized by the students during beating.

Not daring to neglect, Chen Cheng opened the small jar with trembling hands, scooped out a large piece of white lard from the jar with his fingers like a shovel, then poured the remaining half of the tempered bone into it, and mixed it evenly. Then apply on both arms.

I don't know what kind of medicinal materials were added to the Bone Tempering Powder. Just eating it made me feel hot. Now when I applied it to my broken-skinned arm, the sourness almost made Chen Cheng cry out. He seemed to be wearing a mask of pain on his face, but He didn't dare to touch it with his hands, he could only writhe in place like a maggot.

Chen Cheng couldn't help but look around to distract himself while enduring the pain. When he saw other veteran students twisting their faces with masks of pain, he felt a lot better.

Soon after, the burning feeling on his arms disappeared, and Chen Cheng happily licked the lard off his arms and threw it into the oil can.

After cleaning it, I returned home with the smell of lard all over my body.

When he woke up the next day, Chen Cheng took out a toothbrush made of pig bristles, dipped it in a little salt, and started brushing his teeth.

Halfway through brushing his teeth, Chen Cheng noticed the hand holding the toothbrush and found that the blood scab on the back of his hand was a little peeling.

With the toothbrush in his mouth, Chen Cheng used his other hand to try to uncover a small piece, but all at once the entire bloody scab was lifted up.

Looking at the extremely smooth back of his hand, Chen Cheng was stunned on the spot.

"Already ready?"

Although Quegu Powder can promote healing, it is definitely not that fast.

According to senior brother Ma De, it is recommended to use it once every three days at the beginning. In addition to the time required to recover the energy and blood consumed during strengthening, it is because healing takes time.

"It's probably the effect of the [Infinite Split] talent."

The talent of infinite division not only gave him a theoretically infinite lifespan, but also gave him extraordinary healing and regeneration abilities.

"There is also good news, that is, others can only use the Bone Tempering Powder once every three days, but I can use it once a day. My cultivation progress is three times that of others!"

Thinking of the pain when using Tempering Bone Powder for external application, Chen Cheng felt his eyelids twitching, and suddenly felt that this did not seem to be good news.
