Chapter 31
The jade fish once again turned into a crude white jade sculpture, but Bai Lang still remembered the vivid beauty of this thing when it was alive. "Should I throw it away?" Bai Lang thought about it, and finally put it in his arms. At this time, Bai Lang found that the clothes he was wearing were actually the "ancient costume" he wore before he traveled through time. Naturally, it was not surprising that the PPK pistol he was carrying was gone...
"Is this how you block 'modern' firearms?" Bai Lang laughed. His body was still that of a 15 or 16-year-old boy before he traveled through time, but because of his martial arts training, he looked as if he was 17 or 18 years old. With every breath Bai Lang took, the internal force of the Golden Bell Cover flowed spontaneously, and his breathing made a sound like that of a tiger snoring.
"Ha! I can actually bring back all the skills I've cultivated!" Bai Lang was overjoyed and immediately thought it would be better to keep the jade fish. "The change in time still remains at the moment I crossed over." This was the conclusion Bai Lang came to after taking a look outside - because the group of idlers didn't show the slightest bit of surprise after seeing him, it seemed that he wasn't going to be gone for years.
During these years of traveling through time, the little ointment he brought with him at the beginning had long been used up, so Bai Lang found the ointment distributed by the Changle Gang in his room, applied a layer on himself, and began to build up his strength. During this training, he was very happy to find that the second level of his Golden Bell Cover began to loosen, and the internal force seemed to be stimulating the meridians again.
At this time, Bai Lang cried out and thought of an important matter, which was to quickly write down the secrets of the Golden Bell Cover. Of course, the original of this secret book was also not passed through, but fortunately, Bai Lang had memorized the entire secret book - including the graphics, but a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, so it would be better to write it down quickly.
As for whether it would be stolen or exposed? Bai Lang scoffed at this - "I am a gang leader who has only been able to work as a thug in the gang. How could anyone pay attention to me and find out what opportunities I have obtained? Hahahaha." This is indeed the case. The Changle Gang does not pay much attention to guys like them who are the backbone of the gang - these guys who wave the flag and shout slogans.
Those who really
So at the beginning, he was given two common secret manuals and a monthly ration of bruises and ointments. This was already considered a good treatment by the gang. Moreover, there was a monthly salary and extra income, which made life better than that of ordinary civilians. There was also a so-called "contribution" every month. When accumulated to a certain level, he could go to the hall of the elders in the gang to exchange for other martial arts secrets or elixirs.
However, now that Bai Lang has practiced the Golden Bell Cover and opened up the Small Circulation of the Heavenly Qi, he is already halfway ahead of the other gang members. At this age, he is pretty good at opening up the Small Circulation of the Heavenly Qi. If he continues to practice hard, he will have the hope of becoming the incense master or even the deputy leader of a branch as his martial arts improve. However, thinking of Mo Di, Bai Lang could only smile bitterly. His current starting point was already reached by others several years ago.
What level of martial arts did Mo Di have at this time? Bai Lang didn't know what to think, but he must be much stronger than he was now. What Bai Lang had to do now was to practice hard to get through the second and third levels of the Golden Bell Cover without showing off. He was still very confident about this. After all, the three levels were a big level, and Bai Lang felt that he had no problem with the initial level.
As for reaching the sixth level, I'm afraid I can enter the level of an innate master - Bai Lang feels that only when he reaches that level, can he truly understand the mysteries of the martial arts in this world. "Perhaps only when I begin to enter this level, can I know what the masters in the world are like."
Although he was a thug in the pawnbroker's business, he was well-informed, but the news that really involved the upper-class martial artists was not well known to most people. For example, Bai Lang only knew that there was a heaven and earth list, and his own leader seemed to be listed in the list, but he was not sure about the details - because he usually focused on martial arts training and did not specifically inquire about it.
It seems that he has his own opportunity now, and there seems to be hope .
The requirement to break through the Golden Bell Cover is to open up the meridians. The second level requires opening up the twelve main meridians. The internal force can flow continuously in the meridians. It is best to open up the eight extraordinary meridians one by one, but it is not necessary to open up the Ren and Du meridians - opening up this is already half a step into the innate.
Therefore, what Bai Lang needs now is to continuously accumulate his internal strength, the stronger the better - the Golden Bell Cover does not seem to be the best choice for accumulating internal strength. It is good at making internal strength stronger, and the same is true for fighting, but it is still a little insufficient to simply cultivate internal strength and life.
If it was according to the nonsense that Bai Lang remembered, the Golden Bell Cover cultivated the essence of the body and blood, while the one who cultivated true Qi should be the Yi Jin Jing... But Bai Lang didn't have that thing in his hand, and forget it, the Golden Bell Cover cultivated true Qi from the outside to the inside, which was more suitable for him, at least "it won't be worse than Hong Qi, right?" This idea is Bai Lang's current confidence.
However, Hong Qi has the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, and his personal martial arts wisdom is probably far superior to Bai Lang... Bai Lang's current fighting style is only the Tiger Form True Meaning derived from the Thirty-two Long Fists and the Fist Sutra, and he really doesn't have any unique skills to speak of. "Do you want to practice a set of weapons? What kind of weapons are suitable for me?" Bai Lang felt that relying solely on fists and feet might not be enough, and he still had to learn a weapon more or less.
However, there are many weapons, and the eighteen kinds of weapons are just a small part. "Long spears, halberds, swords, sticks, which one should I learn?" Bai Lang felt that he needed to think about it carefully, but soon he realized that this was pure fantasy... He wanted to learn swordsmanship, but who would teach him? What sword manual could he get? The same is true for spears, halberds, and halberds. If he wants to learn, there is no place to learn for a while. Should he figure it out by himself? This is probably a waste of time to go through the path that others have walked long ago.
All sword techniques have a thought in them, and each has its own concept. If you explore on your own, you may be able to master a unique move, but it is really difficult to comprehend the meaning of sword. In comparison, knife techniques are simpler, at least the threshold for entry is relatively low, and you only need to chop and stab... As for the complete knife techniques and their concepts, you can learn them later.
"In this case, can a sword be understood as a knife with blades on both sides?" Bai Lang also thought so - this is not surprising, at least in his knowledge, the Western greatsword or hand-and-half sword is actually indistinguishable from a knife.
