The Book of Troubled Times

  Chapter 218 Preliminary Study on Body Forging

  Langya.

Some of the Qianlongs who came to the banquet to discuss martial arts have already returned, and some of them have come and visited Langya for a few days. People who were not pleasing to him gradually changed their views, and they all became friends with each other.

  Only Situ Xiao disagreed.

  Zhao Changhe was drinking and eating in the lobby of the inn. He raised his eyes and saw Situ Xiao and Wang Zhaoling passing by the door. Situ Xiao was saying, "Don't send them off, just stay."

  Wang Zhaoling said: "Not a few steps...Brother Situ left in such a hurry, why don't you stay in Langya for a few more days?"

Situ laughed and said: "If I stay longer, it is probably to fight with you more. But do you have this leisure time? You are so full of ideas and entangled in mundane affairs, you have a demeanor, everyone praises you, but I dare to say, Within half a year, you will be pulled far away by me, and you will no longer have the qualifications to prove each other with me."

  Wang Zhaoling was silent for a moment, then sighed: "Everyone has his own aspirations."

   "Really?" Situ smiled and shook his head and said, "I don't know if you will regret it in the future, anyway, right now, although you don't hate it, you are not on the same side as me. Let's go, I have something urgent..."

  A voice came from the lobby of the inn next to it: "Don't worry, come and have a glass of wine."

  Situ smiled and leaned back, looking with his head, Zhao Changhe gestured with a wine jug, and smiled brightly: "Drinking alone is boring, brother Situ accompany me?"

  Situ Xiao's lukewarm attitude suddenly changed. He also smiled brightly, and strode into the inn: "Haha, this wine is good. It smells good from afar!"

   "The wine in the inn is incomparable to the wine in the Wang family..."

   "But this is the wine that Zhao Changhe invited, and it is fragrant!" Situ smiled and sat across from him, knocking on the bowl and saying, "Pour the wine, pour the wine!"

  Zhao Changhe poured the wine with a smile, Wang Zhaoling stood at the door for a long time, shook his head slightly, turned and left.

   Aren't you in a **** hurry? What is this doing now? The wine that Zhao Changhe bought for a few pennies is better than my Wang's wine?

   And that Zhao Changhe... why don't you leave, just hang around right under our noses, are you really not afraid of death?

  No... The more he is here, the safer he is.

  Cui Yuanyang is still in Langya. In this situation, even if outsiders want to kill Zhao Changhe, their royal family has to protect him, let alone kill him.

  This is a mess...

  Wang Zhaoling hissed in pain, so what should he do if he refuses to leave?

  Over there, Situ Xiao and Zhao Changhe drank a bowl happily, wiped their mouths and said with a smile: "I haven't drank for two days, and a bird faded out of my mouth."

  Zhao Changhe asked: "Why don't you drink? The Wang family is out of wine?"

"Alcoholism belongs to alcoholism. The most important thing is to stay sober, such as reviewing the battle situation that day, especially with you. I have been thinking hard about your last stunt for two days, and I still feel that there is no way for me at the same level, unless You used an ordinary knife, I practiced it horizontally, but the knife you have in hand is too skinny... Damn, it’s like two days of drinking for nothing, and there’s no fart.”

  Zhao Changhe clapped his hands and smiled, "Coincidentally, I've been thinking about the battle with you for the past two days."

  Situ smiled and stared and said, "Why, you still think about it after winning the fight, next time you plan to beat me within a few strokes?"

   "On the contrary, more moves may be needed."

  Situ smiled for a while, and his expression suddenly changed.

  Zhao Changhe said with a shy face: "Well, you said last time that you would give me a set of fist and palm kung fu, does it still count?"

  Situ laughed dumbfoundingly: "You are so impolite."

   "Honestly speaking, Zhao's time in martial arts is too short, and he doesn't have enough experience in the world, so he lacks a lot of what he has learned. Others say that I have no shortcomings, but I think I have shortcomings all over my body, and I can't wait to make up a subject every day."

Situ nodded with a smile, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "Your gods and Buddhas are scattered, did you incorporate some other family's mind control method into it? I feel that your gods and Buddhas are scattered seems to have the intention of actively arousing fear, It is no longer relying on evil spirits and aura to produce passive effects."

Zhao Changhe gave a thumbs up: "Brother Situ has good eyesight. It does incorporate a bit of Maitreya's spiritual method into it, but this thing feels like it requires a lot of mental power. I haven't found how to exercise this aspect so far, so I can use it to my advantage. Its effect is relatively weak, it is okay to hit ordinary people, but it has almost no effect on people like Brother Situ."

   "It's not for exercising now, that's after opening the secret storehouse. You can use part of it now because of your own energy. But if you use it more, you can still exercise a little bit."

   "Hmm... why is Brother Situ asking this?"

"If there is a shortcoming in my school of martial arts, it is that it is a little lacking in this aspect. If brother Zhao can share this method with me, I will teach you a set of wind and thunder palm." Situ Xiao said apologetically: "It's not stingy. Willing to give it directly to Brother Zhao, this is the high-level martial art of the sect after all, it cannot be leaked at will, I have to explain to the sect."

   "Understood." Zhao Changhe directly reported the secret of Maitreya's mind control method very happily, which is very short anyway.

  Situ Xiao wrote it down carefully, then took out another booklet from his luggage and handed it over.

  Zhao Changhe took a look at it, and found that the booklet was very new, as if it had just been written. He looked up at Situ Xiao, who grinned.

   This guy has been ready to give him palms these two days.

  Zhao Changhe directly stuffed the booklet into his arms, raised his wine bowl and said, "Cheers!"

The two happily drank another big bowl, and then Situ smiled and said with a smile: "The name of the palm is Fenglei, which sounds very explosive, but in fact the main body is a set of defensive palm techniques, the moves are thick and steady, and only at the moment when the wind and thunder burst out At first, I was thinking that it might not be suitable for Brother Zhao, because Brother Zhao's style is active and violent, with a strong momentum... But after hearing what Brother Zhao said just now, he might need more tricks, I think Brother Zhao has already counted."

  Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "There is nothing unsuitable, I think it is very suitable, at least it is more suitable than the Bibo Qingyi I am using now..."

   As he spoke, he shrank his head subconsciously for some reason, and glanced left and right, as if he was afraid of being beaten.

  Situ laughed dumbfounded.

Zhao Changhe coughed twice, and asked again: "I wonder if I can ask brother Situ about body exercises? Uh, I will never get involved in the secrets of brother Situ's sect, because I don't know anything about it, I just want to ask some basic knowledge. "

  Situ poured a bowl of wine with a smile, and said casually: "Actually, you are exercising...The blood evil kung fu is an external kung fu, and you can train muscles, qi and blood. I don't believe you haven't taken a medicinal bath."

   "Does that count?"

   "This is a kind of body forging, which is more offensive, and my method is more defensive, that's all. Don't think that only invulnerability is called body forging, there is no such saying."

   "Then is it possible to take care of both? For example, if I also want to learn a set of iron cloth shirts now, will it conflict with the existing body training?"

   "There will be certain conflicts... It can be said that the combination of muscles is different." Situ Xiao pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you want to pursue the defensiveness of your body, there may be only two paths."

  Zhao Changhe raised his bowl and touched it: "Please advise."

"One is the top-level divine body of the last era. I don't know what it is called, but it must exist. This way is illusory, just listen to it. The second is more feasible. When your inner strength has been cultivated to a certain level, You can learn a kind of method to create a body-protecting Qi wall. The defect of this method is that it cannot last for a long time, and no one can sustain a long-lasting Qi wall."

  Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "As long as there is a direction, thank you Brother Situ for your guidance."

Situ smiled and said: "I suggest you, either reconcile with the Blood God Cult, or try to destroy them. Because many of your follow-up practice was cut off because you betrayed the Blood God Cult. For body training, it’s okay to take bubble bath in the early stage, but you will definitely need some special items in the later stage, if you don’t know anything about it, how can you improve your cultivation?”

  Zhao Changhe was silent.

If it weren't for seeing Situ Xiao and being in contact with Haini this time, he really hadn't thought about taking the medicinal bath for a long time. Now it seems that there are thousands of ways of martial arts, and there are infinite progress in every direction. The road has just begun.

   The more I know, the more I feel that I am far behind.

  So it’s not easy to be a traitor. If someone has a complete inheritance, it’s hard for you to have one.

  Situ smiled and asked again: "You have been staying in Langya, you must have other important matters, you can't just wait for me, right?"

  Zhao Changhe came back to his senses, and said with a smile: "There is something wrong."

  Situ smiled and said, "Do you need help?"

   "It's not very good to drag Brother Situ into the water..."

   "Look down on Situ?"

"No." Zhao Changhe lowered his voice: "The Wang family's rebellion has been revealed, and other rebels will definitely communicate... The Wang family may not like the Maitreya Sect, but the Maitreya Sect definitely likes the Wang family. I suspect that the Maitreya Sect's emissary will soon It’s here, so I just observe on this street and kill when I come. After all, this involves power disputes, Brother Situ’s Martial Dao Sect may not be willing to suffer from muddy water, there is no need.”

  Situ was stunned with a smile, and sneered: "What else am I talking about... Isn't it just killing a dog? Guess where I planned to go when I left Langya?"

  Zhao Changhe's heart moved: "Go north to Yanmen? My mother also planned to go and have a look after finishing the work here."

  Situ laughed loudly, and slammed the wine bowl, splashing the wine: "Damn, you really suit my appetite."

   While laughing, a group of monks walked by the door.

  The two turned their heads at the same time, their eyes sparkling.
