With magical powers, I can quietly meditate on sutras for hundreds of years and become an immortal.

Chapter 5 Toad Fishing Skill

"This kid is actually a martial arts idiot."

"Why didn't I see much in the past?"

Eunuch Yu looked at Li Zhen who couldn't wait to flip through the book, completely immersed in his own world and ignoring his own existence.

He touched his smooth, beardless chin and looked at him with a strange expression.

Then, he slowly walked out of the library with his hands behind his back.

No matter what he does, his father-in-law Yu is not this little kid's master.

If it weren't for the deathbed instructions of the chess friend with whom I got along relatively well in the past and who could play with my stinky chess piece: Taoist Qingsong.

He didn't bother to talk to Li Zhen.

Now he breaks the rules and passes on the martial arts that he plans to carry into the coffin to this kid.

Allowing him to have some ability to protect himself after practicing, it can be regarded as fulfilling Taoist Qingsong's request to take care of him.

As for the other
  My father-in-law, I don’t want to cause trouble.

I just want to spend my old age peacefully.

Li Zhen didn't notice when Eunuch Yu left.

When he opened the book in his hand, his eyes were deeply attracted by the lines of text and the pictures of little people traced with red lines.

But as his eyes passed over the ink characters that were obviously written recently, he kept turning the pages.

His eyes gradually became a little confused.

[You read "Toad Fishing Gong" carefully, but due to lack of knowledge, you gained very little]

What's written on it?
  What else did he look at?
  I obviously know every word, but when put together, it looks like a heavenly book.

As the most common supernatural power in this world.

Martial arts!

It also has a threshold that makes some ordinary people stop.

One is talent, and the other is mentorship.

Talent determines the speed of your martial arts training and the difficulty of breaking through barriers.

The inheritance is about whether you can get started quickly and not take any detours during your practice.

The former Li Zhen has not been tested, but some clues can be seen through his original master Qingsong Taoist who did not pass on his martial arts until his death. He only left a piece of medical skills.

Maybe he is still some distance away from the incompetent Kuchiki, but he is obviously not a martial artist.

As for the latter, there is no need to say more.

If he had, he wouldn't be standing here scratching his head looking at the words in his hand.

After reading it for a long time, I put aside those obscure qi-moving formulas.

What Li Zhen got from the book was just that the name of the martial arts that Eunuch Yu casually threw to him was called "Toad Fishing Kung Fu", which was an internal skill of collecting and moving qi.

As for whether it is advanced or not, and what level it is considered in Jianghu martial arts, I am still confused.

He raised his head in confusion, subconsciously trying to find Eunuch Yu to clarify his doubts.

But he found that he was alone in the empty library.

Glancing outside, he saw a figure lying on a chair lazily basking in the sun under the eaves of the corner.

After taking a step forward, Li Zhen paused and his mind gradually calmed down.

He was still a little baffled by the sudden gift of martial arts.

I don't know what Eunuch Yu's true intentions are, and I don't know if there is any secret in it.

When he asked about how to start practicing this martial art, he always felt that something was wrong.

After thinking about it, he took back his steps and slowly turned his body back.

Not having a teacher doesn’t mean you can’t practice.

There is a huge library of books in the library.

You can explore and compare by yourself, and you can also interpret it through hard work.

At most, it takes some energy.

But for Li Zhen, who was planning to learn medical knowledge, there seemed to be no conflict.

Perhaps we can also confirm each other and apply what we have learned.

After thinking slowly, Li Zhen found the "Xuan Hu Ji Shi Shu" that he compiled yesterday.

I picked up the first volume of "Preliminary Interpretation of Human Meridians, Acupoints and Acupoints" and started reading.

Sure enough, this time the supernatural prompts were much kinder.
  [You have gained a little from reading "Xuan Hu Ji Shi Shu·Volume 1" carefully, and you have a little understanding of medicine]

The spirit is shocked!
  The direction he chose was correct. Li Zhen felt a little proud in his heart, but then disappeared.

He made up his mind to hide in the library from now on and not ask about foreign affairs.

Study hard, study medical skills, and interpret martial arts.

By the way, study health preservation decades in advance to lay a solid foundation for a long life in the future.

Then An Sheng was ignored by the King of Huainan and no one cared about him.

"what!"

Say softly.

A slight glance extended from the library with the open door, and fell on the figure sitting calmly at the desk, studying a book.

"Still somewhat determined."

"But martial arts is not so easy to practice."

Eunuch Yu shook his head slightly, a smile that seemed to be reminiscing flashed across his face, and he looked away.

When he was on errands in the palace, he got this "Toad Fishing Skill" by chance.

I thought I could use it to get ahead and become the chief steward or stall owner in the palace.

But he didn't expect that he was thinking too much.

A little eunuch who just learned some words and had no power.

It is too difficult to achieve success in martial arts.

After struggling for a few years, I was just getting started and was not as good as those skilled and brave eunuchs who had practiced for half a year.

When I feel tired, I let it go.

But who would have known that after arriving at the Huainan Prince's Mansion from the palace.

Because the King of Huainan was afraid that he was from the palace, he arranged for him to work in this library for more than ten years.

Eat well and drink well every day, don’t think too much, and just do a few exercises in your free time.

On the contrary, his progress has been rapid, and he even entered Xiantian a year ago.

Thinking about it now, I can't help but feel a little sad.

"Martial arts, you can't force it."

As he murmured, Eunuch Yu closed his eyes.

Basking in the warm sunshine, I fell asleep.

"call"

The long exhalation echoed in the quiet library in the early morning.

Facing the rising sun, Li Zhen held a book in his hand and read it.

Silently follow the description in the "Six Qi Breathing Method" to practice breathing and exhaling.

Over the past few days, I have made good progress in reading medical books, and I have also gained some preliminary understanding of various meridians, acupoints, etc.

But there is still a long way to go before we can fully interpret "Toad Fishing Skills".

Time cannot be wasted. Since martial arts cannot be practiced for the time being, you might as well take care of your health first.

"Six Qi Breathing Method" is a simple breathing formula, which Li Zhen has no difficulty in understanding.

"There is one level of inhalation and six levels of exhalation."

"The six types of exhalation include blowing, exhaling, sighing, hehing, shushing, and croaking, all of which are the release of breath..."

"Blow to remove heat, exhale to remove wind, exhale to remove annoyances, huff to dispel qi, hush to dispel cold, exhale to relieve extremes."

After practicing for a long time, the internal organs become strong and all kinds of diseases and pains disappear.

Although Li Zhen has not realized these benefits yet.

However, after a few days, he also felt that his breath seemed to be much longer, and the dull feeling of congestion in his chest had also dissipated a lot.

This change made him quite happy.

Everything is going in a good direction.

The future is expected.

However, when Li Zhen read the text for a long time and relaxed while looking far away.

I saw a group of maids, with a figure clustered in the middle, sneaking into the courtyard where the library is located.

His brows furrowed, and his face darkened involuntarily.

Why did you forget that there was this troublesome guy?
