My Years in the Folklore World

Chapter 275 Plum Blossom Stake

Iron head skill?
Jiang Xinghuo touched his head and thought that this was not a good idea to practice. If it was other horizontal training kung fu, he would not care. But what if he practiced the Iron Head Kung Fu and became a bald man?
He didn't want to become bald at such a young age, so he decided to continue looking at other rooms.

"You found it. The Iron Palm training room."

"Do you want to go in and practice Iron Palm Kung Fu?"

"Pay attention, Iron Palm Kung Fu is an entry-level horizontal training hard Kung Fu. With your current strength of muscles and bones, practicing these Kung Fu will not have any effect on you."

Seeing this, Jiang Xinghuo thought to himself, let's not waste any more time. He has taken Iron Bone Grass continuously, and with the training of Iron Shirt, the strength of his muscles and bones has reached the limit.

According to the previous hints in the game text, what I should be looking for now is high-level horizontal training kung fu. To put it simply, it is the kind that cultivates both inside and outside.

He had searched for relevant information before. In the martial arts tradition of the folk world, the practice process is generally divided into three stages.

The first stage is to train yourself, from becoming familiar with the changes in moves to strengthening your muscles and bones, and then to the method of inhaling and exhaling breathing. Generally speaking, it is still within the scope of cognition.

But in the second stage, extraordinary powers will be displayed, such as sword light and sword energy, stepping on water without leaving a trace, picking flowers and leaves with flying, releasing strong energy, etc...

The last stage is to develop the secrets of the human body, which is also called the secret of the human body in traditional martial arts. It will develop all kinds of incredible abilities based on one's own practice.

I am now in the second stage, but I haven't found the foundation to step into that threshold yet.

Jiang Xinghuo explored a few more rooms, all of which were entry-level training rooms and were completely useless to him.

"You used the key to the training ground."

"You used the key in your hand to open a door that had been sealed for many years, and a large amount of smoke and dust immediately hit you in the face."

"You have opened the Plum Blossom Pile Training Room."

"The long-sealed room in the Henglian Temple, the Meihua Stake Training Ground, has been reopened because you found the key. The keeper of the Henglian Temple thanks you for your contribution."

"Your reputation in Henglian Temple has been improved, and you have priority use of all the practice rooms in the temple."

"In view of the contribution you have made, the efficiency gains of your subsequent training in Henglian Temple will be directly doubled."

"Do you want to enter the Plum Blossom Pile Training Room and start practicing?"

"You have entered the Plum Blossom Pile Training Room."

"Plum Blossom Pile Training Room (Elementary), a training program that can quickly improve one's footwork and lower limb strength. The emphasis is on dodging and moving on the pile, avoiding the enemy's attacks in a small space. Training conditions: 250 incense sticks per hour."

"This is a training method specially designed by the Martial Lord for his disciples who are practicing the unique skill of horizontal training."

"Although the horizontal training can make a person have a body of steel, it will also make the body heavy and clumsy, and the steps will be slow to change, making it easy for a hidden weapon expert to become a sitting duck."

"So, the martial arts master set up a plum blossom pile training room in the Henglian Temple, which can improve the movement speed of Henglian disciples and minimize the shortcomings of Henglian Kung Fu."

"Do you want to spend 250 incense sticks to start practicing in the practice room?"

Jiang Xinghuo would naturally not refuse, so he directly consumed 250 points of incense and started practicing the plum blossom pile in the practice room.

The game character is idle and practicing.

Jiang Xinghuo also quit the game, opened WeChat, found Lin Tianshou's avatar, and sent him a message.

Jiang Xinghuo: How is the investigation going?

Lin Tianshou: Based on the clues you provided, I followed the clues and didn't catch any big fish, but found a group of small fish hiding in the seashore. We will capture them tonight. Are you interested in coming?
Jiang Xinghuo: You are busy, please don't bother me, I am not interested. After saying that, Jiang Xinghuo quit WeChat and ignored the message sent by Lin Tianshou.

This muddy water is not so easy to wade through. The Poll Bureau has the entire country as its backing, so naturally there is no need to worry about any trouble.

But what if my identity gets leaked and that group of people comes to cause trouble?
Although he is not afraid, his parents are ordinary people and cannot withstand their revenge. Unless he joins the Public Opinion Bureau and accepts the unified deployment of the country, his parents will naturally have someone to protect them.

However, his lazy personality makes him unsuitable for such high-intensity work within the system.

So forget it.

Jiang Xinghuo threw his phone aside and looked at the ceiling bored. An hour passed like this.

There was a prompt sound from within the game.

"You have mastered the basic level of plum blossom pile."

"You have initially mastered the essence of the plum blossom pile. Your agility has been improved accordingly, and your reaction speed has also increased slightly."

"You have triggered the Tathagata's talent."

"While you were practicing the primary plum blossom pile, you had memorized the layout of the plum blossom pile and analyzed the blueprint of the primary plum blossom pile training room."

"You have obtained the blueprint for the primary plum blossom pile training room."

"Elementary plum blossom pile blueprint (common item). You can replicate the same plum blossom pile in reality based on the template drawn on the blueprint."

Jiang Xinghuo clicked on the text, and a thick stack of drawings appeared in his hand. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the design style and layout of the plum blossom piles were drawn in detail.

But Jiang Xinghuo just took a few glances and stuffed the drawings into his magic bag, because the area required to build the plum blossom piles was too large, at least an open space of more than 200 square meters.

The primary plum blossom pile requires thirty-six steel pillars, and there are intermediate and advanced plum blossom piles, which require at least a hundred steel pillars as thick as trees, forming a fixed pattern according to fixed directions and distances.

That's all money!!

Even if he emptied out all his current family fortune, he still couldn't build a decent practice room.

unless……

Jiang Xinghuo thought of the Public Opinion Bureau. If he handed over his things and asked them to build a plum blossom pile for him, would that be...

But Jiang Xinghuo quickly rejected this idea. Even if others were willing to bear the cost of building the plum blossom piles, they could not be asked to provide the required site.

Where could he find an enclosed space of more than 200 square meters? It wouldn't be a problem for his own small shop, but once the shop was converted into a plum blossom pile training room, the business would be ruined, which was too unprofitable.

Just as Jiang Xinghuo was thinking about this, new game text popped up.

"You have passed the primary plum blossom pile test. Do you want to open the intermediate plum blossom pile training room immediately?"

"Practice conditions: 1000 incense sticks per hour."

Good guy!
Jiang Xinghuo thought that the price had increased several times in an instant, but it was still within his tolerance.

He wanted to see what kind of changes would occur at the end of the plum blossom pole practice, would it be like walking on water or walking lightly on water?
"You have consumed 1000 incense sticks."

"You have started the intermediate plum blossom pile training process. Your lower limb strength and step agility are improving slowly and evenly..."
