Dawn of a New Era

Shell Girl squatted on a big tree next to her, holding two chubby bugs in each hand, watching the giant in the distance keep hitting the big tree, and yawned boredly, she watched for a while , I stopped paying attention to the giant, lowered my head, put the two bugs in my hand on the branch, and kept fiddled with them with my fingers.

Hey, one of them seems to be stuck.

She quickly grabbed the half-dead bug, shook it vigorously with her hand, and squeezed it again.

Despite her small body, her hand strength is not small at all. I saw this poor worm, whose body was constantly expanding and contracting under her pinch, green water and feces were squeezed out of its mouth.

After tossing and tossing for a while, Shell girl put it on the branch of the worm again, and was disappointed to find that it was still motionless, then she threw the worm down the tree without any hesitation, and concentrated on playing with the other one that was still crawling feebly. bug.

...

The pit of the big tree was getting bigger and bigger. After ten minutes, the big tree finally broke from it and fell down with a bang, making a loud noise.

Chen Shouyi glanced at the bloody fist, and after waiting for half a minute, he rubbed off the congealed blood scab, revealing pink and tender skin on the back of his hand, and the skin was still thickening and darkening at a speed visible to the naked eye. After four minutes, it gradually became consistent with the skin, and there was no difference.

Chen Shouyi touched the back of his hand and felt it carefully:

It seems to have some effect. The newly generated skin is slightly thicker than the original one, and it seems to have become tougher.

Chen Shouyi didn't find it miraculous. The skin of a worker who was exposed to the wind and sun every day was naturally stronger than that of an otaku who stayed at home all day. This is to better adapt to the environment, and the corresponding defense of skin irritability.

And because of the existence of natural healing, he shortened this time by thousands of times in the stimulating process of continuous destruction and repair. The effect that ordinary people would take months to produce can be seen in just half an hour.

Chen Shouyi immediately decided to try it out.

He found another big tree, still using the previous strength, this time he increased the strength slightly, from the original 20% to 25%.

However, with just one punch, he stopped in pain, almost breaking his bones.

Looking at the still bloody fist, Chen Shouyi thought to himself, The effect doesn't seem to be very obvious.

But he wasn't disappointed at all. This time, he just tried it out on a whim, so he didn't have any expectations at all. Moreover, it was impossible to use such a rough and primitive method to improve his body strength.

He opened the attribute panel and took a look, and found that the half-hour practice had added an unarmed combat skill.

...

The sun was just past noon today, and Chen Shouyi returned early.

After returning to the safe area, he turned to a bookstore, and then came to the martial arts book section. In the entire bookstore, this section had the largest number of people, most of them were young people and teenagers, and of course there were quite a few middle-aged and elderly people.

Obviously, the current situation has made more and more people practice martial arts, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more popular.

The books here are all books for beginners in martial arts.

The bestseller was a book called The New Edition of Thirty-Six Exercise Methods and Experiences in Body Refining, and the surrounding was almost full of people,

However, these books did not attract Chen Shouyi's interest at all. He searched carefully, but unfortunately he couldn't find what he wanted after searching for a long time.

In the past twenty years, martial arts has developed rapidly. Some long-standing cultivation methods have already been gradually eliminated because they have little effect and no one cares about them. Can actually see the strength.

Walking out of the bookstore, Chen Shouyi looked a little disappointed:

It would be great if the Internet is still there. You can find a lot of these things with a search. But in the current situation, where can I find these books?

At this time, his eyes lit up: Jiangnan University!

As one of the top universities in the Great Xia Kingdom, there should also be a martial arts laboratory. As long as there is a martial arts laboratory, there will naturally be a collection of books in this area.

Whether it is the thirty-six exercises of body training or the practice of meditation, it does not come out of thin air, but a collection of various ancient and modern Chinese and foreign cultivation methods to learn from each other's strengths, eliminate the chaff and keep the essence, and on this basis, constantly revise, improve and develop from.

The more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and immediately walked towards Jiangnan University.

After a while, he found Guan Miao again.

The two walked to a remote corner.

Why are you looking for me again? Guan Miao said coldly.

I want you to borrow some books for me? Seeing that she seemed to be repelling him, Chen Shouyi didn't care at all, and went straight to the point.

The sun is coming out from the west, you are a big warrior with a head full of muscles, are you ready to study? Guan Miao sneered.

Chen Shouyi, who was in a good mood when he saw hope, became angry when he heard the words.

Damn, can you talk properly!

But when he thought that he was asking for help from others, he could only suppress his anger and said impatiently, Say whether you want to help or not.

This is your attitude of asking for others, and you called me out to ask a professor to borrow books for you. Am I free? Guan Miao snorted coldly.

You're just an idiot! Chen Shouyi's face darkened, and he creaked his fists: Stop talking nonsense, don't force me to be rough.

What book do you want? Guan Miao's expression changed, he took a step back, and said submissively.

To this woman, I really can't speak well.

In terms of traditional martial arts, such as hard qigong, iron cloth shirts, etc., as long as you exercise your body to defend, you need as many as you can! In order to prevent Guan Miao from responding to the story and perfunctory, Chen Shouyi continued, At least a hundred copies.

The more samples, the richer the knowledge gained, and the better the estimated effect of the book of knowledge deduction.

That's impossible! Guan Miao exclaimed in shock from Chen Shouyi's huge appetite. Seeing Chen Shouyi's face darken, she quickly explained, Even if I'm a professor, I can't borrow so many books at once.

How many copies can you borrow?

Twenty copies! Guan Miao said, But I still have eight copies to return, so I can only give you twelve copies.

You didn't lie to me? Chen Shouyi asked suspiciously.

How dare I lie to you, aren't I afraid of being beaten by you? Guan Miao turned his head, curled his lips, and said strangely.

Since we can only borrow twelve copies, then twelve first! Chen Shouyi said.

...

At the entrance of the library, Chen Shouyi waited for half an hour, when Guan Miao finally walked out with a displeased face, and handed him a stack of books.

When will you pay me back? Guan Miao asked coldly.

Golden Bell Mask, Iron Cloth Shirt, Cinnabar Palm, Iron Head Kungfu, Iron Crotch Kungfu, Hard Qigong, Thirteen Taibao Henggong exercises...

Each book is not thick, only dozens of pages at most. Chen Shouyi checked it and said, I'll pay you back tomorrow. If it's not enough, you may have to borrow some for me!

Guan Miao's expression suddenly became even uglier.
