Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 17 Money is not wasted

hiss!
so comfy!

I didn’t expect that the feeling of a medicinal bath could be so relaxing?

have to say,

The price of the medicinal bath is one silver dollar, which is worth it!
The water temperature in the wooden barrel is slightly high, and you can even feel it is a little hot with your hands.

but,

The temperature during medicinal bath is slightly higher, which is good for human absorption.

As long as it does not cause burns, when the temperature of the medicinal bath is higher than body temperature, the pores will open and the absorption efficiency will be higher.

Chen Jie immersed his whole body in the barrel and calmed himself down.

Then,

He had to close his eyes slightly to concentrate.

at this time,

He could feel the medicinal bath's effects beginning to take effect on his body.

During this period of time, Chen Jie has been training hard.

Although Aunt Thirteen helped him perform the "Bone-Splitting" technique twice, his muscles were a little stiff after a long period of training.

The muscles and bones are under load for a long time, causing some soreness.

but,

After soaking in the medicinal bath, Chen Jie could clearly feel his muscles, bones, and tendons beginning to become hot and numb.

There was even a slight itchy feeling, as if ants were crawling on my bones.

Then,

As the medicine is absorbed, a warm feeling begins to spread throughout the body.

This feeling is so comfortable that it cannot be described in words.

The medicinal effects of the medicinal bath were absorbed, diffused, and penetrated into his body.

Chen Jie felt his muscles and bones begin to relax, and the injuries incurred during training gradually recovered.

His muscles began to soften and no longer feel stiff.

Even as the effect of the medicine spread, Chen Jie felt that his skin became delicate and his senses became sensitive.

Unconsciously,
Chen Jie just felt drowsy and wanted to have a good sleep.

but,

He couldn't help but open his eyes and take deep breaths to keep his brain clear.

It is best not to fall asleep easily while taking a medicinal bath.

Otherwise the effect will be reduced and the efficacy of the medicine will be greatly wasted.

As time went by, the water temperature began to drop, and Chen Jie had to add hot water from the small wooden barrel next to it.

The medicinal effect continued to be stimulated and penetrated, and the color of the medicinal bath began to fade.

you get what you pay for!

The money will not be wasted!
After taking a medicinal bath, all the negative physical conditions formed by his long training were eliminated at once.

-

at dusk.

Liu Qi and Liu Bamei are both back.

The new house has been found, and it will cost a total of twelve silver dollars.

Liu Qi originally planned to ask Chen Jie to confirm it, and as long as Chen Jie nodded, he would buy it directly.

The house was much bigger than expected, with high walls surrounding it and a martial arts training ground in the yard.

It is said that a wealthy family lived there before, but later they fell into poverty and the house became empty.

But Chen Jie let him make his own decision.

Liu Qi plans to pay the money tomorrow and buy it directly.

In the next few days he will arrange for someone to clean the house, and they can move in after three days.

Liu Bamei was so excited that her face was beaming with smiles, and she kept calling Chen Jie "Brother Chen", which made Chen Jie's bones go soft.

The two siblings have lived with their aunt since they were young and have lived a hard life.

How could I not be happy when I suddenly have such a big house to live in?
of course,

What Chen Jie cares most about is that Thirteenth Aunt helps him perform the "Bone-Splitting" technique!
After he knew that the time on both sides was ten times out of sync, he was not in a hurry to go back. When he was there, he came at eight o'clock in the evening.

That is to say, until eight o'clock the next morning, a total of twelve hours.

But here, it is one hundred and twenty hours, which is equivalent to five days!

He took a medicinal bath once a day, and then Aunt Thirteen helped him perform the "Bone-Splitting and Muscle-Breaking" technique, while practicing hard for ten hours at a time.

In this way, he would have nearly 120 [Martial Arts Merit Points] every day.

-

Five days later,

The day after moving into the new house.

Chen Jie finally had a good sleep last night.

This house is very big, with many empty rooms and a very spacious location.

After morning exercise and breakfast, the sun rises in the east.

Chen Jie was sitting on a recliner next to the training ground in the new house, with a pot of water boiling on the coal stove next to him.

Chen Jie saw a stray dog lying outside the door of the big house, dozing with its eyes slightly closed.

After five days of hard training, with Aunt Thirteen helping him to 'break his tendons and dislocate his bones' every day!
Chen Jie has never stepped into the threshold of strong muscles, and he feels a little conflicted.

Strengthening muscles is the most basic state for people who practice martial arts, and it is also a process of increasing strength.

If you have not developed your strength, then when you use it, it will be clumsy force.

Just like a bodybuilder, his muscles are stiff and he looks very strong, but he is actually clumsy and lacks agility and extreme explosive power.

The muscles of those Sanda fighting athletes don't look very strong.

but,

Each of their powerful punches can cause fatal damage and unleash extremely strong and extreme explosive power.

This is entering the state of strong muscles, which allows the muscles to form force exchange.

Chen Jie prepared wild ginseng and other things and wrapped them into a big package.

It's about time to go back.

Just as he was coming out of the gate, he accidentally stepped on the tail of a stray dog.

“Woof woof—woof woof—!”

The stray dog let out a miserable roar, baring its teeth and barking at Chen Jie.

Its body is hunched, its fur is standing on end, and its tail is drooping.

this moment,
Chen Jie could clearly feel that the stray dog's body was tense and its spine was like a bent bow.

The hair on its body stood up, and it seemed as if it wanted to pounce on Chen Jie and bite him.

Chen Jie looked at the stray dog's hunched body, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

In an instant,
The moment he bent the stray dog's spine, he felt a powerful force.

"Huh? Is this the burst of strength in the strong muscle state?"

Combining his hard training during this period, Chen Jie seemed to have some understanding in his mind.

The stray dog kept barking wildly. It was obvious that Chen Jie had stepped on its tail and hurt it.

Its eyes were filled with anger, but it didn't dare to pounce and bite people.

"I understand! Clumsy force is the inherent strength of the human body. The body is stiff, also known as brute force, which is similar to the strength of weightlifting!"

"Brute strength is related to the strength of the body's muscles. If you want to burst out super brute strength, your muscles must be strong, but it is easy for them to gradually degenerate as the body ages!"

"This kind of power is completely different from the strength in martial arts!"

"Strength seeks coordination of the body and the joint explosion of muscles. It uses the waist as the core of force and explodes in an instant!"

"Its force is like a bamboo breaking, extremely fierce, clean and decisive, bursting out suddenly with the speed of lightning!"

boom!
Chen Jie stomped his feet suddenly.

The next moment, his body bent up, and his whole body was like a giant bow.

His spine was tense, his arms hung naturally, and his feet formed a kicking posture.

In an instant,
He actually felt the blood rushing through his body, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The stray dog sensed the change in Chen Jie's aura and was so scared that it tucked its tail between its legs and ran away.
