I Contracted Myself

What is it like to experience a 90% drop in learning ability?

Zhang Ping knows very well that some awakened people have very harsh conditions for using their abilities, but so far the only one he has really seen is Wang Jieming.

Until the end of get out of class, Wang Jieming had not learned the Ape King pose.

Zhang Ping had to admit that instructor Bai De was at least very good at cultivating qi. He was very impatient and still insisted on breaking up the Ape King pose and teaching it to Wang Jieming in detail, but Wang Jieming just couldn't learn it.

On the contrary, Zhang Ping, who was listening on the sidelines, had a better understanding of the Ape King Style, and he probably would have mastered it after practicing for a while.

These are Bai De's original words.

Among all the apprentices, Zhang Ping is indeed the fastest to learn.

If you don't have to take care of the progress of all apprentices, you can definitely learn the first three moves of Beast King Fist in one day.

Coming out of the Beast King Boxing Gym, Zhang Ping and Wang Jieming happened to be walking on the same road.

Through chatting on the road, Zhang Ping learned that Wang Jieming's father was a member of the investigation team. He had received elite education from his mother and father at home since he was a child.

Recently, his mother kept teaching him repetitive things. He guessed that her mother had nothing to teach her anymore and was just trying to save her face, so he simply spent his usual savings to sign up at the Beast King Boxing Gym.

In fact, Wang Jieming's strength is not bad.

Whether it is basic boxing or open boxing, he has mastered it so well that he can at least be on par with Zhang Ping. However, since he awakened his ability, his speed in learning new things has become very slow, so if he simply uses the Beast King Fist, He will not be Zhang Ping's opponent for a long time.

Halfway through, the two made an appointment to go to the martial arts gym together tomorrow and then parted ways.

Zhang Ping returned to Iron Soul, skillfully climbed through the window and entered the room. Then he saw Liu Sishan sitting on the chair in front of the desk. He turned around and closed the window first, and then asked: "Sister Sisi, what's the matter?"

"Did you forget to tell me some information?" Liu Sishan asked.

Zhang Ping was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said, "What information?"

"In addition to the inherent abilities of the race, does Tianchang Fox have other abilities?" Liu Sishan asked seriously.

Zhang Ping nodded and said: "It is true that some Tianchang foxes have extra abilities, but the Tianchang foxes I pointed out to you are all ordinary Tianchang foxes and do not have extra abilities, so I will not mention them for the time being."

"In the operation to eliminate Tianchang fox just now, one Tianchang fox was in bad condition and someone was injured." Liu Sishan said solemnly.

Zhang Ping sat on the edge of the bed and frowned: "Are you sure it's another ability?"

"Yes, according to the information I got, it seems to be some kind of ability to make people trust each other through language." Liu Sishan said.

Zhang Ping immediately realized what kind of ability it was and said, "I know this ability, its name is Inexplicable Trust, but the Tian Changhu I identified has absolutely no additional skills."

"Did they switch identities?" Liu Sishan frowned.

Zhang Ping said strangely: "The problem is that I identified Tianchanghu randomly, and you also attacked Tianchanghu randomly. Before you take action, no one should know who you will target."

"It may also be the ability to predict something." Liu Sishan added.

Zhang Ping said helplessly: "I will try to observe and see what is going on. I will tell you the results when I have them."

"Yeah." Liu Sishan nodded.

Then she stood up, gradually became transparent, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Ping looked at the room and whispered: "Sister Sisi?"

For a moment, he was still not sure whether Liu Sishan had left, so he simply didn't worry about it. It wasn't his turn to suffer anyway.

go to bed!

In fact, he had thought that Tianchang Fox could exchange each other's identities, such as exchanging the human skin attached to their foreheads, but whether it was possible or not,

He was not 100% sure. Next, he planned to re-identify the Tianchang Fox that he had identified before, and maybe he could gain something.

The next day, six o'clock.

After Zhang Ping got up, he first performed a set of Mingquan, and then practiced the Ape King Style for a while.

Morning exercise is over.

He took a shower first and then went out to buy groceries.

In addition to his job of looking after the store, he is actually also responsible for taking care of Liu Tiefeng's daily life and food. He is usually responsible for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

In fact, the original owner didn't know how to cook.

But Zhang Ping was single in his last life, so he knows some basic home-cooked dishes, and even has a secret secret: Lao Ganma boils instant noodles with pickled mustard and fermented bean curd.

After making breakfast, Liu Tiefeng had already gotten up.

After breakfast, the two went up to the third floor to start the day's practice. While practicing making noodles, Zhang Ping also prepared some clean flour to prepare noodles for lunch.

After the dough-making exercise was over, the two went into the material room to continue learning how to distinguish materials.

This is Zhang Ping’s favorite part.

Every time Liu Tiefeng explains a material, he will also explain the source of the material. When it comes to alienated beasts, he will explain it particularly carefully. Zhang Ping can even picture the appearance of the alienated beast in his mind.

"Grandpa Liu, what kind of material is this?" Zhang Ping asked curiously when he saw a dark blue finger sealed on the counter.

The main reason is that this finger looks too much like a human finger. If the skin were not dark blue and the nails were purple-black, he would have doubted whether this thing was taken from a human body.

"That's a finger of an Ocean Man. About sixty years ago, a group of Ocean People landed from the Changsha River in the east and attempted to invade Pearl City. The old city lord led a patrol team and a survey team to fight with the Ocean People.

At that time, I was still a new recruit, following behind my seniors to fight. After the group of marine people were killed, my body was divided among everyone, and I was also assigned a finger. Liu Tiefeng said with some nostalgia.

Zhang Ping asked in surprise: "Are ocean people also savages?"

"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. This was what Old Scholar Chen found out at that time after searching the vast sea of ​​ancient books. It is said that there is a group of ocean people with blue skin, red hair and fangs living in the sea. They used to live by the sea. Mutated fishermen, they believe in the sea god and regard land creatures as forbidden enemies, so they are called ocean people." Liu Tiefeng said.

Human evolution in this world is truly diverse.

People in Pearl City have a chance to become awakened, and there are still savages with unknown power systems in the wild. I didn't expect that there are branches like Ocean People.

Although the savages and ocean people can no longer be considered human beings, Zhang Ping also felt that it was an eye-opener.

It even creates an association.

Will there be more branches of humanity?

never mind.

Zhang Ping did not continue to think about it, after all, this was too far away from him.

Next, Liu Tiefeng did not mention the Ocean Man again, but returned to the topic and continued to talk about the knowledge about the 'Firebird'.

The Firebird is an alien beast that has mutated from a sparrow. It is no different from an ordinary sparrow at ordinary times, but when it flies at high speed, the friction between its feathers and the air will burn into flames, which looks like a small flame bomb.

Their feathers are so special that when added to weapons, they create flames when wielding the weapon.

There used to be a flying knife expert in Pearl City who always kept flying knives with firebird feathers added to them. The flying knives were more powerful than the firebird itself.

However, this weapon has a drawback.

Once the movement speed reaches a certain level, it will definitely burn, so a snake skin called 'Ice Snake' is needed as a sheath.

"Grandpa Liu, do we have this kind of weapon in our store?"

Zhang Ping feels that this kind of weapon is very

It suits him mainly because he has the innate ability of 'Fire Eater', and he can use this weapon to absorb flames to restore his physical strength during battle.

This is equivalent to having unlimited physical strength.

"No, firebirds are very fast and difficult to hunt. The price of a firebird feather on the market is about 50,000 pearl coins, and it is priceless. Most firebird feathers are collected and rarely used for forging. Weapon." Liu Tiefeng shook his head and carefully put the only Firebird feather back into the maintenance bottle.

This firebird feather has been stored in Iron Soul for a long time. Liu Tiefeng and his family do not plan to use it until suitable materials are found.

Zhang Ping felt a little pity.

However, he also knew in his heart that this was human nature, and he would not use it easily if he got a precious raw material.

At least until he is 100% sure, he will never use it.

Teaching is over.

Zhang Ping and Liu Tiefeng had ramen for lunch.

In the afternoon, Liu Tiefeng was low on energy and needed to take a nap. Zhang Ping was full of energy and continued to sit by the stove and practice his fire-eater abilities as usual.

Although the Iron Soul store is open, usually no one will come. Even if someone does come, they will just take a look. After seeing the price, they will choose to say goodbye, say goodbye, and not bother you.

Most weapon shops are of the "not open for three years, open for three years" type. The more precious the weapons, the higher the price. Most of the weapons in Iron Soul can be regarded as small boutiques, and there is even a small top-notch weapon that is used as a store treasure. Only one weapon sold per year is enough to keep Iron Soul afloat.

Zhang Ping didn't actually need to do anything to check the store.

No customers came until closing time, so Zhang Ping and Liu Tiefeng closed the door immediately after eating.

Liu Tiefeng went to bed very early, and Zhang Ping told him at noon that he had signed up at a martial arts gym, so he did not need to climb over the wall to go out this time, but left through the back door of the store.

Halfway through, Zhang Ping saw Wang Jieming waiting for him under a tree.

Because of the effect of Night Walker's assassination ring, he walked up to Wang Jieming and Wang Jieming didn't even realize his presence. It wasn't until he patted Wang Jieming's shoulder that Wang Jieming noticed him.

"How did you do it? Invisibility?" Wang Jieming asked in surprise.

Zhang Ping smiled and said: "It's just that you were distracted. Let's go. Don't be late."

"Well, I hope I can learn the Ape King pose today." Wang Jieming nodded seriously.

He promised instructor Bai De that he must practice the Ape King Style to the basics within five days, otherwise he would drop out of school.

The worst thing was that he wanted to practice the Ape King Style on his own at home, but he couldn't remember what Instructor Bai De taught him in the martial arts gym.

The two came to the Beast King Boxing Gym, and today's learning content was mainly about consolidating exercises.

This time Zhang Ping was assigned to another apprentice. This apprentice was over 25 years old and his name was Zhou Jielin.

Zhou Jielin is an experienced adventurer. According to him, he started to be an adventurer when he was eighteen years old, which has been six or seven years ago. Although he is still relatively unfamiliar with the Ape King style, his body is stronger than Zhang Ping. He also has rich combat experience, and Zhang Ping sees through his intentions every time he makes a move.

"Don't keep your eyes on the place where you want to attack." Zhou Jielin avoided Zhang Ping's fist and said with a smile.

Zhang Ping jumped back like an ape to avoid Zhou Jielin's attack and asked: "Then where should I look?"

"Don't focus on one point, look at the overall picture, just like looking at a painting." Zhou Jielin said.

Zhang Ping tried to do what Jay Chou said, but knowing is easier said than done. Sometimes some habits are really not so easy to correct. It's like an untrained person who will instinctively close his eyes when someone attacks him.

Without training, it's difficult to correct this subconscious action.
