Longevity starts with learning

"When will this day end, Brother Mu..."

After walking a few steps, a familiar complaint sounded in Chu Mu's ears.

"Enough, I'm tired of hearing this!"

Chu Mu glanced at Xu Yuan who had appeared beside him and said unhappily.

He was not exaggerating at all. He had been hearing this kind of complaint for as long as he had been recovering from his injury.

"Brother Mu, you have nothing to do, staying at home every day, but I have to stay in the dungeon day and night, accompanying the corpse of that old man..."

"Oh, now you call me old thing?"

Chu Mu teased:

"Didn't you call me old man affectionately before?"

Xu Yuan was a little crazy:

"Now I dream about that old man every day..."

"If this goes on, I will really go crazy!"

"It's useless for you to complain to me."

Chu Mu waved his hand: "I'm not from Qili Village, how can I know what they want to do."

"Maybe they ran away a long time ago..."

Although he said so, Chu Mu's expression was obviously more confused.

After all, what he saw with his own eyes that night couldn't be fake, right?

Chu Mu subconsciously looked around. There were people coming and going on the street, and most of them were familiar faces. After resting for more than half a month, he shuttled through the street every day in his spare time, and he didn't find anything unusual.

Running over to check around, feeling that it was too dangerous, so he ran away?

Chu Mu thought about this possibility which seemed a little funny, but then he thought about it again, and it seemed that this possibility was not impossible.

It is human nature to fear death and love life.

"Don't you have to go to work?"

Chu Mu glanced at Xu Yuan who was still following him and asked casually.

Xu Yuan grinned: "I took a leave for the whole afternoon, so I don't have to go there in the afternoon."

"That's perfect."

Chu Mu nodded: "Come and help me!"

"What's the matter, Brother Mu?"

"You'll know when you come over."

Chu Mu walked back home quickly. The most eye-catching thing in the yard was the big wooden barrel that was almost half a person's height.

Xu Yuan walked around the wooden barrel, with a puzzled look on his face: "Brother Mu, what is this barrel for?"

"For martial arts practice."

"Go get me a few buckets of water."

Chu Mu walked into the kitchen, lit a fire, poured water into the pot, and poured a bag of medicinal materials into the pot. Xu Yuan added buckets of water to the pot.

After a while, the Chinese medicinal materials in the iron pot began to roll with the boiling water, and the aroma of the medicine filled the whole room and slowly spread to the courtyard with the breeze.

Xu Yuan was still busy, and even the job of adding firewood to the stove was assigned to him by Chu Mu.

Chu Mu himself sat under the eaves, holding the volume of body-building techniques that had been read countless times in his hands again.

Although Chu Mu could recite the contents by heart, he was still reading them carefully page by page.

It took about half an hour for Chu Mu to put down the volume of body-building techniques in his hand.

The medicinal liquid in the iron pot was already boiling hot and viscous, and nearly half of the well water had been poured into the wooden barrel.

Chu Mu took a deep breath, his expression was full of anticipation, from dreaming but not being able to get it, to being able to watch but not practice, to now having the final push...

Real Kung Fu...

"Pour it in."

Chu Mu looked at Xu Yuan who was standing in front of the stove with a bucket, and while speaking, he also tried to calm himself down.

Calming and cultivating one's nature is the first level of martial arts!

A full bucket of sticky and boiling liquid medicine was poured into the water in the bucket. In an instant, the bucket of water was dyed as black as ink.

Chu Mu took off his clothes, naked upper body, tested the water temperature, and then jumped directly into the bucket.

The slightly boiling liquid medicine also enveloped Chu Mu in an instant.

Chu Mu felt it carefully, but did not find anything unusual.

After closing his eyes and adjusting his breath for a while, Chu Mu slowly opened his eyes until his mind was calm. In his field of vision, the light curtain panel also emerged.

[Name: Chu Mu. ]

[Skills:

Basic swordsmanship (a glimpse of the door) 272/500]

[Spiritual brilliance value: 509.9%]

Glancing at the negligible increase in swordsmanship proficiency, Chu Mu's eyes were fixed on the "spiritual brilliance value" accumulated over the past few days.

Practice the body-building technique, first calm the mind, then comprehend the blood and qi.

The liquid medicine that is wrapping him now is a prescription specifically for practicing the body-building technique.

Its main function is to strengthen the foundation and nourish the essence.

Of course, no matter how strong the medicinal effect is, it is necessary to reach the stage of manipulating blood and qi before it can be consciously manipulated and absorbed.

Relying only on the instinct of the body, even if it is in it, its effect is minimal.

At present, Chu Mu has not even practiced the pile exercise, and has not yet sensed the blood and qi, so naturally there is no way to completely absorb the medicinal properties of the liquid medicine.

Chu Mu's purpose is to use the external medicinal properties to stimulate the blood and qi in the body, so that he can more easily sense the existence of blood and qi.

This method is also described in the Body Strengthening Technique.

Following the method of practicing the standing meditation that he had memorized by heart, Chu Mu slowly took the standing meditation posture in the wooden barrel.

It was a new practice, so he was not proficient, but after so many days of thinking, the movements and postures were quite standard.

Calming down, Chu Mu also carefully sensed the changes in his body.

Under the instinct of the body, the absorption of the drug effect was minimal, but it was impossible to be completely isolated in this drug liquid.

Soon, Chu Mu could feel the numbness all over his body.

Chu Mu realized that this was the body's instinct to absorb the medicinal effect in the liquid medicine.

It was just like applying a plaster, the principle was the same.

What he had to do now was to sense the changes in his body after the medicinal effect was absorbed.

In simple terms, that was... where did the medicinal effect go after being absorbed by the body!

The prescription for strengthening the foundation and nourishing the essence was to replenish qi and nourish blood.

It replenished qi and nourished blood.

The medicinal effect and qi and blood met inside and outside, which was undoubtedly the easiest time to sense.

When the posture of the standing meditation was fixed, with a silent recitation in Chu Mu's heart, the "spiritual blessing" descended, and the perception of calming the mind seemed to be instantly magnified several times.

The numbness spread all over the place covered by the liquid medicine, and under the faint numbness, the slowly rising warmth was also clearly sensed.

Numbness outside, warmth inside

The internal and external energy converged, and it seemed that the blood and qi were steaming and rolling in the body.

It was clearly the coldest time of the year, and it was freezing cold, but at this moment, Chu Mu's forehead was actually dripping with sweat.

The boiling potion seemed to have turned into a blazing furnace in Chu Mu's perception, and he was on this furnace, being baked by it.

"Qi is contained in the blood, flows through the five internal organs, is hidden in the internal organs, and circulates throughout the body..."

Suddenly, Chu Mu seemed to understand a little bit...
