Longevity in martial arts begins with the fusion of martial arts

Chapter 1 Situation

Chen State, Hengshan County, Heishan City, Outer City.

……

The sun sets in the west, and the dim afterglow shines through the clouds and shines on the door plaque of "Huichun Hall".

"Thank you, doctor!"

Lu Yuan took the medicine he had just grabbed and thanked him profusely as he left the hospital.

He held the medicine bag in his arms with one hand and covered his mouth and nose with the other, struggling to squeeze through the crowd outside the door who were rushing in. In just a few steps, the linen shirt on his body was already soaked with the sweat of the crowd.

Although he is 1.7 meters tall, he looks very thin due to long-term lack of nutrition, and he feels dizzy when he is squeezed in the crowd.

After finally leaving the hospital, Lu Yuan looked down at the medicine bag in his arms. Seeing that it was intact, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards his home.

This is the outer city, and most of the streets are dirty and messy.

Skillfully walking through the old streets filled with debris on both sides, occasionally reaching out to fan the pungent smell that penetrated my nose hard.

We walked all the way through the streets and turned into a dilapidated alley.

There is a row of old-looking bungalows in the alley.

Among them was Lu Yuan’s home for his entire life.

Seeing that he was almost home, Lu Yuan stopped, patted his stiff face, forced a smile, and quickly walked into this dark alley.

"Little sister, I'm back." He knocked on the door lightly and shouted inside.

With a heavy creaking sound, the wooden door opened.

Revealing a pretty, but obviously sickly face: "Brother!"

Her name is Lu Jing, and she is her sister.

"I caught the medicine. You can cook it yourself. I have to go out later." Lu Yuan came in, put the medicine bag in his arms on the table, and drank two bowls of water.

"You went out at night, and the boat came again?" Lu Jing took the medicine package and took it to the side to tinker with. She was not old, but her figure looked youthful and beautiful.

"Well, Manager Zhang has given instructions. This cargo is in a hurry and needs to be unloaded tonight." Lu Yuan explained.

It has been five months since he came to this world.

Yes, he is a time traveler.

After traveling through time, Lu Yuan thought of himself as the son of destiny at the beginning, but now he is running for a living, and his mentality has changed greatly.

It’s not like I haven’t thought about using the knowledge from my past life to find a way out in the past few months.

But after he made a few taels of silver by luck and was approached by a gang, which almost broke his legs, he finally gained a clear understanding of the world.

Lu Yuan's parents died, leaving only him and his sister Lu Jing.

Originally there was an older brother, but during the plague a few months ago, three siblings were infected one after another, and only Lu Yuan and Lu Jing survived.

Of course, Lu Yuan traveled through time at that time.

Lu Jing, on the other hand, has left behind the root cause of the disease and continues to take medicine to this day.

In this world, human life is like a piece of grass, and it is even rarer for untouchables to die a good death.

"Brother, Wang Yaozi came again today. I didn't open the door. He talked a lot outside the door before leaving." Lu Jing was a little nervous and lowered her voice.

"Huh? Didn't you already tell him that there is no discussion?" Lu Yuan frowned.

"He, he said that the price is negotiable and he promises to find a good home for me." Lu Jing muttered.

"Bullshit! Those who knew he was a human trafficker, but those who didn't know thought he was in the matchmaking business!"

Lu Yuan sneered and turned his head to comfort Lu Jing.

"Don't worry, I'll go talk to him."

Both parents died, and the eldest brother died early. The two of them could be said to be helpless, and since Lu Jing was beautiful, they were targeted by Wang Yaozi.

If Lu Yuan hadn't come to his senses, sold iron, and worshiped the Caobang's wharf, the two of them would have been wiped out by these lowlifes!

Lu Jing boiled the medicinal ingredients in the pot, looked at her brother and sighed.

"Brother, we are dependent on each other now, so don't be arrogant. Although you have joined the Cao Gang, we should try to be more tolerant."

"Uncle Liu next door has been missing for seven or eight days, and was only found in the ditch today. Isn't it because he has a bad temper and got into conflicts with others?"

"A few months ago, if Menghu hadn't helped those people come to my door, I wouldn't have known you were out there making quick money. That's why my eldest brother went there. I didn't want to..."

Lu Jing originally had good words to comfort her, but as she spoke, she couldn't help but lie on the table and cry.

Lu Yuan was at a loss and could only silently pat the other person's sobbing back. He couldn't help but clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind.

When Lu Yuan came to this world, he was not without support.

It's just that due to his low status, he can't even use the golden finger.

That was the panel that appeared in his mind after traveling through time.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

【Shouyuan: 17/52】

[Martial Arts: "Inner Scenery Revealing Deep Thoughts" (can be fused)]

His information, his short lifespan, and the martial arts he mastered were simply recorded on the panel.

This "Inner Scene Revealing Deep Thoughts" doesn't have any special background.

In his previous life, pneumonia caused bronchiectasis when he was young. Traditional Chinese medicine suggested that he practice breathing techniques to improve and strengthen the function of the respiratory tract. He randomly found a book on breathing guidance from the Internet, which was "Inner Scenes Revealing Deep Minds".

But after all, this is just a health-preserving skill. Except for the time when he just traveled through time and relied on breathing guidance to survive the plague, it will not help his situation afterwards.

But this panel does more than display martial arts and longevity.

When this panel appeared in Lu Yuan's mind, he naturally understood its role.

That is the martial arts that can be mastered to the entry level.

Learn from each other's strengths and integrate them into a new martial arts!

The new martial arts society will evolve into a martial arts with a higher upper limit and more suitable for oneself based on the level of martial arts absorbed. Even the speed of cultivation will be greatly improved due to better compatibility.

It's a pity that he currently only has one health regimen that is recognized as martial arts, and he brought it from his previous life.

After traveling through time, he tried various tricks, whether he was searching for some martial arts skills or simply practicing punching and kicking, but nothing happened on the panel.

Only then did he stop thinking about it, and decided to find a systematic martial arts.

Unfortunately, in his current situation, it is completely impossible for him to come into contact with serious martial arts techniques.

In Black Mountain City, there are only two places where civilians can practice martial arts, one is the gang, and the other is the martial arts hall.

This is also the reason why Lu Yuan went to Caobang to pay homage to the wharf.

Unfortunately, he was still too naive.

In Caobang! Only a small boss would give an ordinary martial arts secret book, and Lu Yuan was not qualified to have access to it.

To get to this point, even a small number of people would have to grind for seven or eight years without a backing.

As for the martial arts school, it is taught right away, but the tuition is very high, and without a certain amount of savings, it is simply unaffordable.

And if Xiaomin wants to make money in Black Mountain City, he can't avoid gangs either!

In Black Mountain City, large and small forces have divided their territories and occupied different neighborhoods.

Whether it is opening a shop or doing small business, you must give a commission to the gang. It’s useless no matter how well the business is run, it’s just making wedding clothes for people.

As for the yamen and the gentry?

The backstages of various gangs are yamen and aristocratic families.

Ugh!

Lu Yuan sighed.

Then he turned to look at Lu Jing. She was crying and fell asleep on the table.

The daughter of a poor family also worked hard. Her body had not recovered yet, so she had to do urgent work in the past two days. She was busy sewing and did not get much rest.

Lu Yuan carefully carried her to the bed.

He also pulled out most of the firewood that was overheated, and slowly boiled the remaining half of the wood and some charcoal.

After doing this, he walked out of the house quietly, closed the wooden door behind him, and quickly walked out of this shabby alley.

……

Of course Lu Yuan didn't go to the dock to unload the goods.

Even though I joined the Cao Gang, I still didn't discuss whether I should deduct wages from you. I should have paid 200 cash for moving goods, but if I got 50 cash, I would consider the little boss to be merciful.

Trying to save up enough for martial arts school tuition based on this is tantamount to wishful thinking.

Lu Yuan walked through the streets and alleys and came to a relatively clean alley.

Near a two-story small shop, he coughed lightly without knocking.

The small door opened, and a middle-aged man with a mustache dressed as the shopkeeper stretched his head and looked around before being pulled into the house by Lu Yuan.

"The old rule is that two paintings, landscapes, should complement each other. Do it more carefully and as soon as possible. This time you will get two taels of silver."

The mustache led Lu Yuan to the store and couldn't wait to speak.

There are framed calligraphy and paintings hanging on one side of the shop, and couplets and plaques on the other side.

There are also some four treasures of the study on the counter.

The store is not big, but it looks elegant.

Being able to open a store in Black Mountain City naturally has someone to protect it.

As Lu Yuan walked in, he looked at the store with envy.

He Shi Shiran found a place to sit down: "Don't have any other requirements?"

"This is your birthday gift, be festive!" Ba Zi Hu thought for a while and added.

"How old? What's your status?" Lu Yuan continued to ask in a professional spirit.

"Other than an eighty-year-old man."

Lu Yuan pondered for a while: "It takes three days."

The mustachioed eyebrows raised: "Hey, little ancestor! Two days, we have to hurry up!"

Lu Yuan said nothing and looked at the mustache quietly.

The mustached man had no choice but to grit his teeth and said: "Three taels! I'll give you three taels of silver! You have to paint it for me the day after tomorrow!"

Lu Yuan felt that it was almost done, so he nodded, and then followed the mustache to the second floor.

This is where he comes in as a painterly shooter.

Painting was his unique skill in his previous life.

I didn’t expect that it would play a role in this life.

Two months ago, the mustached man took a fancy to his own skills, and the two hit it off immediately. Their cooperation includes copying, original creations, and high imitations.

For Mustache, Lu Yuan has a low status but extraordinary skills, and is of great exploitation value. He can make a lot of money from just a few orders.

As for Lu Yuan, although 90% of the agency fee was taken away by the mustache, the advantage was that he was safe. He didn't have to step forward, and he wouldn't be targeted by the gang just because he made some extravagant money. What kind of business innovation is much more reliable?

Moreover, this mustache also cooperated very well in hiding Lu Yuan's existence in order to prevent competitors from knowing about it or fearing that Lu Yuan would become famous.

Lu Yuan was in a good mood.

This time I got another three taels of silver, plus the eight taels I collected before.

The tuition fee at major martial arts schools is basically 10 taels of silver for entry, and the teaching can range from two to four months.

This means that after traveling through the past few months, I finally see a glimmer of light.
