Chapter 93: Loosen the muscles and bones, attack the skin and fur
Zhou Gang sat slumped on the rooftop of the dormitory building for a long time before he caught his breath.
The feeling of falling from the building just now was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations. It could even be said that it almost scared him to death. It was like he had one foot in the gate of hell.
Fortunately, these soldiers usually train with real guns and ammunition, and their willpower and courage are far beyond ordinary people. After being inspired by Chen Jue, they were aroused to fight.
After recovering from the shock, Zhou Gang stood on the concrete guardrail again and began to practice with Chen Jue.
"Zhou Gang, your family's I-shaped Fu Hu Quan has reached the right level. It has strong bridges and strong horses, and it has large openings and closings. Combined with military body fighting techniques, it should be no problem for you to deal with ordinary opponents. However, you haven't mastered the technique of Ming Jin force yet. Your physical strength will be exhausted after a while. Once exhausted, you will be powerless and easily be caught by your opponent."
"Look at the back of my hand first!" Chen Jue stood opposite Zhou Gang and raised his arm for the other party to take a look.
The pores on Chen Jue's arm expanded and closed as he controlled them, goose bumps appeared and fell from time to time, and Zhou Gang's pupils almost shrank into pinholes when he saw those bumps that were as big as iron beans.
"Coach...what is this?" It was also the first time that Zhou Gang saw someone's skin being controlled like this.
"This is top-notch kung fu. After you develop Ming Jin, you can shrink your pores at will, so that the heat in your body does not leak out so quickly. And I have also practiced some hard skills. You can touch and feel my skin." Chen Jue instructed.
Zhou Gang nodded and touched it. He found that Chen Jue's skin was smooth and tender when the pores were dilated. It did not feel like skin to the touch. Instead, it felt tough and thick like a piece of jade, but without the roughness of calluses.
But once Chen Jue closed his pores, goose bumps appeared and he felt like he was touching a piece of stubborn iron. Even if he used sharp fingernails to scratch it, at most a light white mark would be left, which could be erased by rubbing it.
"Coach! I want to learn this move!" Zhou Gang's eyes showed anticipation. This ability to withstand blows would be very powerful if used in fighting.
"The Gongzi Fuhuquan has methods of hitting the whole body and practicing the bridge hand horizontally, which is very similar to the Shaolin fighting skills I learned. You have built a certain foundation with this skill before, and your body's ability to withstand blows is much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. This is why you won first place in the regiment competition. You have also trained your physical strength to be very sufficient. The only thing you lack is to concentrate and let your pores shrink and close, so that you can hold your breath and make your explosive power more lasting."
"Just practice with me here and just focus on attacking. As long as you can overcome and forget your fear, you will be close to having your mind and energy flourish and your pores closed." Chen Jue had studied the principles of boxing in the group for a while. With his own martial arts level, it would be no problem for him to instruct Zhou Gang, who hadn't even mastered the Ming Jin.
…
The two men practiced against each other standing on the concrete guardrail. During the practice, Zhou Gang nearly fell down dozens of times because he punched too hard, but was pulled back by Chen Jue's quick eyes and hands.
It is just like the Taoists in ancient times who practiced in huts in the mountains. They must have protectors who are willing to sacrifice their lives for them. They can be senior brothers, masters, Taoist partners, disciples, and so on.
If there is no one to help protect him, even if he falls off a cliff and is smashed into a pulp one day, there may be no one to collect his body .
He practiced like this on the rooftop in the dark for two hours, taking three breaks during the period. The more Zhou Gang practiced, the more comfortable he felt. Every move he made was more integrated than before, and his strength was more precise and powerful. He had gradually figured out the trick to closing the pores. The reason he made such rapid progress was that Chen Jue helped him steal the secret and steal kung fu from God.
"Alright! Let's stop here for today!"
"Remember the feeling of practicing boxing tonight. Next, you should practice on your own for a while. You have a foundation of martial arts passed down from your family. Half a month should be enough for you to fully master Ming Jin Kung Fu."
"There's a sentence about Ming Jin in the boxing classics: The muscles and bones should be relaxed, the skin and fur should attack, the joints should be penetrated, and the mind should be empty and spirited in the middle. Go back and think about it carefully to see if it resembles the feeling you had when practicing boxing just now." Chen Jue had sharp eyes and he saw at a glance that after Zhou Gang threw the last punch, the pores on his arm involuntarily closed, so he stopped teaching and made a few comments.
"The muscles and bones should be relaxed, while the skin and fur should be attacked? It seems to be exactly as you said, coach!" Zhou Gang nodded, recalling the feeling of practicing boxing on the concrete guardrail just now, and felt that this sentence from the boxing classics was extremely appropriate.
"Coach, will you come next?" Zhou Gang was a little reluctant. It was not often that he could receive such instruction from a master.
"I live nearby and will come over when I'm free. We'll see then! Stealing Heaven's Secret doesn't work every day. It works best the first time. Later, when you have completely overcome your fear, you don't need to go to such high places. You can practice on the high platform in the playground by yourself. That way you won't be in danger." Chen Jue thought for a moment and replied.
As for the two instructors Zou and Lin who were watching, they were also very enlightened that night. They felt that they had learned a lot, and they enthusiastically communicated with Chen Jue who had just finished teaching.
The group went downstairs chatting and laughing, had a midnight snack in the cafeteria and then parted ways.
As for Chen Jue, he got on the jeep sent by Political Commissar Yao and returned to his hometown in Chencun.
…
When I got home, I looked at the time and it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening.
Chen Jue took a shower, changed into clean clothes, sat cross-legged, and began to practice the small and large circulations.
Taking the bus during the day and attending martial arts classes in the group kept his schedule full and he had no time to arrange his own practice.
But when he returns home, he is the master of his own time and can do whatever he wants.
Chen Jue had just completed a circle of the small and large circulations when he unexpectedly discovered that this skill popped up on the attribute panel without any warning!
[Lv0 of the big and small cycles (1/100)]
"what's the situation?"
"Is the environment at home more suitable for me to practice?"
"Or is it because we have enough practice time and all we need is the finishing touch of this lap?" Chen Jue felt a little surprised. He had practiced in the beach villa for so many days but there was no progress.
I didn’t expect that I would be able to successfully get on the panel just after returning home and moving my blood around!
After running it for another round, Chen Jue found that the speed of this technique was a little faster than before. It felt like he had opened an experience scroll and the speed was greatly increased.
However, his proficiency remained unchanged. Instead, after moving two rounds of qi and blood, his free attribute points jumped by 0.02. Chen Jue even felt that the midnight snack he had just eaten was almost digested!
A feeling of hunger came over me!
“Why is the consumption so high?”
Chen Jue now has a very deep control over his body. He can clearly sense when his stomach is hungry. It feels like he has not eaten for a whole day.
The food and nutrients in the stomach and intestines were directly emptied out by the two rounds of exercises just now!
Running to the kitchen, he cooked the fish maw and the tonic soup he brought back. Chen Jue felt that the new skills presented by this sect were not simple at all. He planned to try out this unverified technique by adding some extra skills.
