Chapter 4 Testing the medicine and starting to exercise (please collect it)

When he was almost walking to the kitchen, Shi Xuan suddenly thought of some airborne poison that might appear later. He quickly stopped and endured the pain to apply a soil-absorbing talisman on himself. After activating it, he saw the ground squirming and loess. Climbing from the feet to the body, the breath is already covered with a layer of loess, looking like a terracotta warrior. At the same time, he cast a dust-removing spell on his face, and then continued to walk to the kitchen.

As soon as I stepped into the kitchen, the aroma of medicine hit my nostrils. It smelled like the three medicines were non-toxic and non-toxic.

Shi Xuan wrote the three characters A, B, and C on the medicine cans, then found three bowls and wrote A, B, and C on the sides of the bowls, and then posted the dust-proof charms he had drawn before on the trays. And stimulate, and then force the liquid medicine into their corresponding bowls. Shi Xuan thought proudly: "Although it was in ancient times and there was no laboratory environment, it was still possible to perform aseptic operations. Taoism is indeed magical."

After carrying the tray, he entered the yard and stopped at the corner where four dogs were tied up. He placed the tray on the ground, kneaded the secrets in his hands, took seven-star steps with his feet, murmured a mantra in his mouth, mobilized the energy of his body, and after a moment, cast Four dogs were immobilized by the immobilizing spell. Shi Xuan quickly drank three bowls of medicine to two black and one yellow dogs, and then stepped aside, waiting for the medicine to take effect.

After a few breaths, one of the black dogs suddenly convulsed all over, foamed at the mouth, and had blood in its eyes. It tried to struggle but could not move. Within a moment, it stopped moving. It was only because of the existence of the immobilization spell that it was still standing there. Fall down. Shi Xuan sweated profusely. Fortunately, we did an experiment. Let's see if this thing can be sold at a good price as a highly toxic secret recipe. As for why I don’t use it myself in the future, the main reason is because the effect does not turn into a pool of blood, nor does it emit a burst of yellow smoke. It seems that it can deal with ordinary people and martial arts people, as well as monks with a certain level of cultivation. It's hard to say what good effect it has.

At this time, the other two dogs looked excited, their eyes were red, and they started barking, which was nothing wrong. But only after a while, the yellow dog suddenly broke free from the power of the Immobilizing Spell, and then began to run around the yard. If the wall of the yard hadn't been very high, it would have probably jumped out. Shi Xuan observed for a moment, Just when I was about to step forward to compare with the remaining black dog, the yellow dog ran slower and slower, and finally fell to the ground with a whimper and stopped moving.

Shi Xuan stepped forward to check carefully and found that he had just fainted, but his body was exhausted, as if he had exhausted a lot of energy. It seems that this prescription is more like a stimulant, which is harmful to the body.

Shi Xuan returned to the corner and kept observing the remaining black dog until the power of the immobilizing spell passed. The black dog only excreted a layer of black substance from its body, but appeared to be alive and kicking after the power of the spell passed. Shi Xuan now knew the prescription, but to be on the safe side, he planned to spend one more night and check on the conditions of the two dogs tomorrow.

Because the medicinal materials used in the prescription for medicated bath and the prescription for oral administration are the same, but the proportions are different, the prescription for medicated bath can now be determined, but caution first, let’s take the remaining dog first Try it.

The results of the experiment satisfied Shi Xuan very much. The yellow dog did not show any adverse symptoms after taking the medicated bath. It just rubbed its bones like itching, but it recovered by the evening. Shi Xuan guessed that this was the effect of the medicine. Penetration into the skin.

After running around all day and being busy, Shi Xuan was also very tired. After going out to have dinner, he came back to meditate and adjust his breath for a while before falling asleep.

A night of silence.

The next day, Shi Xuan got up early. The two dogs that took the medicine were still alive and well, but the yellow dog that took the suspected stimulant looked much older and was lying in the corner listlessly.

Shi Xuan confirmed the efficacy of the medicine and was determined that he would start physical training today.

There is a mysterious and close connection between the human body and the soul, so it is often seen that people with a strong body are in better spirits, while people with a weak body are mentally depressed. To exercise and nourish the soul is to strengthen the body and replenish the soul by practicing various external skills. When the body is exercised to a certain limit, the inner Qi will naturally arise, and at the same time the soul will break through the realm and enter the period of nourishing Qi and strengthening the soul.

If the body is not exercised to the limit but the internal strength secrets are forcibly practiced to enter the qi nourishing period, the body will be unable to withstand the consumption of refining qi, leaving hidden wounds. In severe cases, the body will be exhausted and tuberculosis will result. Of course, after entering the qi nourishing period, you still need to replenish a large amount of nutrients every day to make up for the consumption of refining the qi. Otherwise, various diseases will occur if the body cannot get out. Therefore, people who practice martial arts have to consume a lot of resources, and they have no money or power to support them. It is difficult for martial artists to practice advanced martial arts.

After lunch, Shi Xuan looked at the bowl of medicine placed in front of him, drank it in one gulp after calming down for a moment, then took off his robe and walked to the courtyard with his upper body bare.

At this time, Shi Xuan felt that the medicine he drank turned into a heat that spread to every corner of his body. He took a good posture and began to practice according to the starting position of the Ten Dragons Subduing Demon Fist in "Baolu".

Because Shi Xuan was already familiar with the ten moves of the Ten Dragons Subduing Demon Fist in the morning, he was relatively skilled at this time, starting with the Barbaric Dragon Turning the Waist, the Blue Dragon Fubo, and ending with the Golden Dragon Wagging its Tail, and the Heavenly Dragon Coming to the World. .

As the boxing moves were executed one after another, Shi Xuan felt the heat flow in conjunction with his fist movements. Often, with each move, the heat flow gathered more and more in the areas where the muscles were the tightest and most powerful. Under the pressure of internal and external forces, the body The dirt inside will be emitted from the pores of the body with the cooperation of boxing techniques and heat flow.

The more Shi Xuan fought, the more comfortable he felt. He hit the Ten Dragons Demon Subduing Fist from beginning to end, from end to end, more than ten times, and the moves became slower and slower. In the end, it was like practicing Tai Chi in later generations. However, Shi Xuan felt that it was slow and comfortable at this time. With the cooperation of the medicine, he felt that the corners of the body and the inner layers of the muscles that had not been exercised before began to tremble with the punches.

If anyone else looked at him, they would find that Shi Xuan's body was filled with heat at this time, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist. The area on his head with the most heat was like white smoke rising upwards. It was like there was wind surrounding it, blowing a circle of more than ten feet on the ground.

Shi Xuan's punches slowed down to an extreme and then started to speed up again. At the end, when the punch came out, the wind whistled, and the sound of the joints all over his body was as dense as fried beans.

Gradually, Shi Xuan entered a state of emptiness, as if he could see his soul and body. The soul was inside and the body was outside. Every time he punched, he felt that the body and soul were punched together, and at the same time, the blood of the body was punched out. The power continuously nourishes the soul inwards, making the soul slowly grow stronger.

The more Shi Xuan fought, the happier he became. His energy was getting better and better. There seemed to be a burst of air in his heart. The golden dragon swung its tail, held it with his left hand, and turned his body. All the muscles in his body were exerting force. His right hand was tilted down like a mountain pressing against the top. When it came out, it was a move that brought the heavenly dragon to the world.

With one punch, all the strength in his body and the breath in his heart seemed to be released from the punch. There was only a crisp sound in the air, and a gust of wind blew out and broke a twig of the big tree two feet away.

After the punch was fired, Shi Xuan stopped and felt very happy. The muscles all over his body were sore but full of strength. However, his body was full of sweat and had a layer of black dirt, which made people feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, Shi Xuan quickly walked to the well, fetched a bucket of water, found a rag and wiped the dirt off his body, feeling refreshed. Because medicinal baths are made at the right time, this time was just right. Shi Xuan came to the kitchen, stepped into the bathtub, and sat cross-legged. It feels like as the temperature rises, the medicinal power penetrates from the skin into the muscles, and has a tendency to penetrate into the bones. According to "Bao Lu", Shi Xuan adjusts the breath and feels the balanced and interactive state of the body as a whole. In fact, it is a meaning of "qi" in Qi training. It controls and coordinates the power of various parts of the body to eliminate Compromises the body's ability to return to balance.

Shi Xuan endured the discomfort of numbness and itching while adjusting his breath, feeling the power of each part of the body, and controlling the body to always be in a state of overall balance. In this state, anything that disrupts the balance of the body and causes harm will be caused by the body. It is transformed into a balanced state and excreted (it has its limit, so the harmful ingredients in the drug should be in an appropriate amount. This is also the precious thing about a prescription), so the harmful parts of the external medicine are slowly excreted from the body. Of course, during the excreted The process outside the body also takes away harmful substances deep in the body such as bones, and the beneficial parts of the external medicine replace these substances to nourish the body.

You must know that when you adjust your breath and practice Qi, it is difficult to expel the harmful substances deep in the bones, because these harmful substances have not reached the point of endangering the balance of the body. They can only make the body further strengthened and the "Qi" reached. Only at a very strong level can some of it be discharged, and this level may not be reached until Shi Xuan reaches one or two realms.

Amid the numbness and itch, Shi Xuan maintained this state of regulating his breath. Practicing "qi" with this intensity also has certain benefits for the soul. It wasn't until half an hour later that Shi Xuan felt that the potency of the medicine was gradually fading away, and Shi Xuan walked out of the tank. After getting out and drying my body, I felt that my body was light and comfortable, my spirit was ethereal, my perception was sharp, and my soul strength had been slightly improved. At the same time, the previous small internal injury was actually healed. You must know that it was originally judged to be half It takes a month to get better, this is the benefit of practicing Qi.

After this day of training, Shi Xuan felt the strength of his body and soul before going to bed. He initially judged that if he came twice a day, morning and evening, he would be able to enter the Qi-nourishing and soul-building period in five months. At the same time, his physical strength would definitely far exceed It turns out that after all, the Ten Dragons Demon Subduing Fist and this prescription are far better than before. It can be used to practice places that could not be practiced before, and the effect of practicing the same place at the same time is also much better. It is indeed the content of the supreme law. It’s just that when I was practicing the Ten Dragon Demon Subduing Fist, I felt that I still hadn’t grasped the essence of this martial art and needed to work harder.

For the next few months, Shi Xuan lived in seclusion. Except when he needed to go out to eat and buy medicine, he stayed in the yard, trying to practice the Ten Dragons Subduing Demon Fist twice a day. In the rest of his free time, he reviewed the various skills he had learned before. Magic, body and soul have all been greatly improved. At the same time, recall the knowledge that Xu Laodao told, and prepare for future travels around the world to seek immortality and ask questions.
