The Heavens: A Strengthening Journey Starting from Ip Man

Chapter 1 Apprenticeship
Jiulong City in [-] was not prosperous, but popular.

Box-like buildings stand on both sides, and a long and thin street is drawn in the middle. In the north, it is at most bigger than the Hutong, and here is the main street.

On both sides of the street, there are full of iconic signboards, high or low, patchwork, looking from a distance, it looks like a hand that greets guests to enter the door.

A woman was washing clothes in a corner, and a child was walking through the crowd with a windmill. At the door of the small restaurant, two men punched each other red-faced.

Under a temporary shed, stood a young man, whose clothes seemed out of place with the people here, and would attract other people's eyes from time to time.

"Where is Hong Zhennan's martial arts school?" The young man held a handwritten advertisement paper with a troubled expression on his face.

As a young man in the 21st century, Gu Yun should have been sitting in an air-conditioned room, typing on the keyboard with both hands, enjoying the wonderful life of [-].

However, when an out-of-control truck was about to crash into a child in a roadside stall, he subconsciously pushed the child away, and then lay down on the bottom of the truck.

When he woke up again, everything in front of him was so unfamiliar. If it weren't for the sudden "ding" sound in his mind, he would not have woken up from the daze of time travel.

"The novice task is to learn from Hong Zhennan, but you still have to ask about Hong Zhennan's martial arts school."

Having just arrived here and not being familiar with the place, Gu Yun asked for the address of Hong Zhennan Martial Arts Hall from an old man.

After thanking him, Gu Yun finally found Hong Zhennan's martial arts gym according to the guided route.

Compared with other houses in Jiulong, Hong Zhennan's martial arts hall is very large, at least much larger than the rooftop where Ye Wen taught martial arts later.

Before entering the door, the shouts of punching came from inside.

"Hi Hi Fist is really correct." Gu Yun thought to himself.

He pushed the door open and someone came up to him. He looked at the flyer in his hand and said, "Come to learn boxing?"

"Yes." Gu Yun handed the flyer to the other party.

The other party looked Gu Yun up and down, seeing that his clothes did not look like a poor person, then turned to the young man in charge and said, "Brother, a newcomer is here!"

"Everyone, practice by yourself."

After saying hello to the others, he came to Gu Yun's side and said with a smile, "You are very discerning. In Xiangjiang, our Hong Quan is definitely like this."

The elder brother gave Gu Yun a thumbs up, and Gu Yun smiled.

He knew this person, that Aji who was beaten up by Brother Xiaoming.

Aji continued: "Most of the people who come to us to learn martial arts are poor. In addition to learning martial arts, they also work in our fish stall. Of course, if you are rich, you don't need to do this."

"I still have some savings." Gu Yun replied.

Aji nodded and said, "The monthly tuition fee is written on the leaflet, so I don't need to introduce it."

Gu Yun directly took out a few banknotes from his pocket and handed them to Aji, paying the tuition fee for three months at once.

When he arrived here, he had some savings, mainly thanks to the system.

The system directly converted Gu Yun's property in his previous life into Hong Kong dollars, and the property included real estate such as houses.

At this time, ordinary people living in Xiangjiang had a monthly living cost of about 100 yuan, a plainclothes police detective’s monthly salary was 60 yuan, and a small bowl of noodles was only [-] to [-] cents.

As for the house price, an ordinary house of 1 to [-] square meters in a civilian area is only a few thousand yuan, and a slightly higher-end bungalow is more than [-] yuan.

Gu Yun's current assets are nearly 20.

So as an orphan, he was very lucky to be able to achieve financial freedom before time travel.

Is a penny a hero? If you want to be a smart and strong man, you need money.

"Ding!"

"The novice task is completed, the novice gift bag has been distributed, please pay attention to check!"

Hearing the voice in his mind, Gu Yun was shocked.

As the voice fell, the blank interface in his sea of ​​consciousness also changed instantly.

Character panel:

Character: Gu Yun;
Spirit: 4 (normal value 5);
Qi and blood: 4 (normal value 5);
Life level: Tier 8 (progress about [-]%);
Life talent: none;

Storage space: Newbie gift package.

Space size: one cubic meter.

Glancing at the novice gift package, Gu Yun suppressed the excitement in his heart, and then said to Aji, "Brother, I have not been here for a long time, and I need to solve the housing problem first, but I am not very familiar with this place, so..."

Aji instantly understood that he was not an ordinary person just by looking at Gu Yun's clothes, and said directly: "Since we are already senior brothers, we will definitely help you."

With that said, Aji pulled Gu Yun out of the martial arts hall.

"Where do you want to live, Junior Brother? As for us ordinary people, most of them are in the tube buildings here. The better ones are the western-style buildings to the west."

"Hehe, I have some savings, so let's buy a house on the west side." Gu Yun said with a smile.

"Buy one! That's not cheap, a thousand-foot mansion costs more than 1 yuan." Aji was a little surprised at Gu Yun's worth.

"Just over there." Gu Yun said.

Seeing this, Aji immediately led Gu Yun to the mansion area.

As the big brother of Hongquan Martial Arts, he still has some contacts in this area. It only took half a day to help Gu Yun complete the formalities.

As a thank you gift, Gu Yun took A Ji to a British restaurant for a meal, and then gave him a red envelope as a thank you gift.

After this back and forth, the relationship between the two suddenly became closer.

After purchasing some daily necessities, Gu Yun returned to his new home in this world, and then hastily opened the gift package for beginners.

"Ding! The novice gift package is open!"

"Six strengthening points, talent card!"

Looking at his own rewards, Gu Yun allocated enhancement points first.

According to the introduction of the system, Gu Yun understood the meaning of spirit and blood.

The spirit here includes one's own mental state, comprehension, heart qi and other things at the stream of consciousness level, while qi and blood include all aspects of the body, such as strength, speed, flesh and blood strength, and so on.

If you want to develop well, you must have a balanced development of spirit, qi and blood. Any lagging behind will have an impact on your own strength.

Therefore, Gu Yun directly allocated the three strengthening points to the spirit, and the three points to the blood.

As a result, his attribute value became 7 in spirit and 7 in blood gas.

After strengthening, Gu Yun suddenly felt a subtle change in his body and mind.

“This feeling is really amazing, because I used to work overtime a lot, my mental state was not very good every day, and I also had various physical problems, but now I am full of energy.

"I had some minor problems with my body before, but not only are they gone now, my body has also become much stronger."

He took off his clothes and looked at his upper body in the mirror. His originally slightly bloated figure was now extremely muscular. The six-pack muscles in his abdomen were sharp and angular, almost comparable to those of bodybuilders.

And his appearance has also improved a lot due to the change in figure, and now his appearance can finally be called "average".

Gu Yun punched more than a dozen times excitedly, and jumped up and down again. This kind of relaxed state, when he was a social animal, was simply a dream.

After exercising around for a while, Gu Yun finally calmed down, and then opened another reward.

"Talent Card—Increases perception by five times, can be used five times, and lasts for one hour each time!"

Gu Yun's eyes lit up when he saw the talent card, it was completely tailor-made for him.

Before he could react, the system beeped again.

"Ding! Mission released!"

"Within one month, defeat all my fellow apprentices!"
