"Huh...huh..."

Zhou Shen breathed heavily.

Thinking of the internal breathing he had just learned last night, he guided Qi to the respiratory system. In an instant, he entered internal breathing again.

His chest was still heaving violently, but miraculously, his mouth did not open, and his nose only let in air, not air.

I have to say that internal breathing is really magical. My heart, which was beating violently, quickly calmed down as internal breathing started.

Zhou Shen then guided some Qi to his legs, using external guidance to relieve the fatigue of his legs.

The biggest difference between external guidance and internal guidance is that it can only relieve fatigue, but cannot truly eliminate fatigue or even repair damaged tissue cells like internal guidance.

This is the biggest difference between the two.

But it has to be said that the effect of the external guidance technique was really immediate. He guided the energy flow to swim around under the skin of the heavy and numb legs, and his feet immediately stopped being sore and numb. It was like hugging the legs.

The heaviness of having a dead baby also disappeared.

As the negative symptoms in his legs disappeared, the lost physical strength seemed to have recovered. He even felt that it was no problem to get up and run another 5 kilometers at this time.

Of course, this is just his illusion.

The negative symptoms are only temporarily eliminated, but not completely eliminated. Now if I really run fast on the path as before, let alone 5 kilometers, it is not sure whether I can run 500 meters.

Just as he was about to get up, he suddenly felt something swimming past in the grass.

Before he could react, a strange feeling came from the side of his right calf.

"Fuck!"

When he thought of something, he sat up suddenly, and with lightning speed, he punched into the grass with a punch.

With a "Puff" sound, his angry fist sank directly into the soil.

And in the grass on the side of the fist, a thick black and yellow cauliflower snake was exposed.

It's just that its head has been beaten into the soil.

Zhou Shen raised his hand. Inside the pit, the head of the cauliflower snake had been beaten flat.

He ignored the cauliflower snake, but bent down and looked at the bitten calf. He found that the calf was extremely smooth, not to mention the bite, not even a white mark was left.

"Hahaha……"

Zhou Shen, who was still a little worried at first, couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

This unlucky cauliflower snake didn't even get a taste of it before it died.

He stretched out his hand to pick up the cauliflower snake and looked at it. He found that it was really big, with a length of 1.7 meters, a weight of five or six kilograms, and it was covered in flesh.

“Not bad, it’s time to go back for extra food!”

Cauliflower snakes are not venomous. As for online reports about the problem of parasites caused by eating snakes, in fact this is a very rare occurrence and can be avoided.

As long as the cooking method is proper, even if there are parasites, they will be killed. For example, sparganoderma is a common parasite that can be transmitted to humans and animals. It can be killed by cooking it at 100 degrees for 5 minutes.

When he was a child, his grandfather often caught cauliflower snakes and ate them.

However, more and more people were caught later, and now we see less and less of them, let alone such a big cauliflower snake.

He took off his sweaty T-shirt, then picked up the snake and tied it in a knot.

He just walked quickly towards home, shirtless.

…

It was already eight o'clock after breakfast.

Zhou Shen took matters into his own hands and took care of the cauliflower snake. He peeled off the skin and cramps and removed the internal organs. He put it on the scale and weighed it, weighing three pounds and eighty taels.

Then he chopped it and put it aside. When grandma comes back at noon, he will fry it and eat it. It will be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

He did not sit idle, but put the dregs of Baibu Zoujing Decoction that had been boiled in the refrigerator before, put it into a casserole, added water and boiled it again for an hour.

Pour out the hot medicinal soup and drink it directly from the bowl without waiting for it to cool down.

The hot medicinal soup felt just right in his mouth.

Unfortunately, the medicinal properties of the boiled medicinal residue were very weak. After drinking most of the bowl, he only felt a little warmth in his stomach, not the same feeling as when he swallowed a small fireball before.

Drink up a bowl of 400-500 grams of medicinal residue soup.

Then he opened the attribute panel and took a look. The attribute points that were previously 0.3 were now 0.4, an increase of only 0.1.

Although it is a small amount, it also proves that there is indeed residual medicinal properties in the medicinal residue.

Because of this, he still did not throw away the medicinal residue that had been boiled twice, but waited until evening to boil it again.

Zhou Shen packed up his things, then looked at the attribute panel, took a deep breath, and added 0.1 attribute points to [Iron Undershirt].

However, what disappointed him again was that the iron shirt had not been upgraded, and the proficiency was still stuck at 499/500.

In desperation, he could only add the remaining attribute points to Xingyiquan.

As his proficiency in Xingyiquan increased, the lost physical strength and energy were restored by 0.1, and his tired body began to feel better.

…

After lunch, Liu Yunhua called him to inform him that the founding ceremony of the Wushu Association, which was supposed to be held tomorrow, would be rescheduled to Saturday, June 6, at 10 a.m. because a leader of the Provincial Sports Bureau was unable to attend a temporary event.

"I'm really sorry, Teacher Zhou, for causing you trouble."

"fine!"

Zhou Shen understood that if the leader did not come to participate, all Liu Yunhua's previous efforts would be in vain, and it would be difficult to apply for funding in the future.

It just so happens that he is busy practicing the jumping skill right now, so it would be a good idea not to go.

After hanging up the phone, I chatted for a while with the Yang Xingyu brother and sister who were guests at home. After they left, I went upstairs to catch up on my sleep until two o'clock in the afternoon.

After getting up, he ran to the next village, bought a large old-fashioned water tank about half a person's height from a house, and then hired a tricycle to pull it to the small building.

The reason why he bought a large water tank was to practice "tank running".

According to the requirements of the jumping technique, the practitioner needs to bear weight and walk on the edge of the water tank. Only when he can run on the edge of the water tank can he be considered qualified.

This is scary enough, do you think this is the end?

It's early!

Next, we need to practice the "running brick jumping skill".

Commonly used red bricks are erected on the ground in a straight line, like dominoes, up to ten meters long, and practitioners have to bear weight from one end to the other.

Remember, the red bricks are standing upright, not horizontally.

It starts with walking, and you need to practice until you can run on an upright red turn.

If one brick falls, all the bricks must be laid out again, and you must continue walking on it.

If you think about it, you will know that this kind of Kung Fu cannot be developed in one day.

He even doubted whether the creator of kung fu could do it himself.

Anyway, he felt that he definitely and definitely couldn't do it.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, his purpose is just to make the icon appear as soon as possible, and then just add dots.

Zhou Shen found a large basin and began to pour well water into the large water tank.

According to the requirements, water is not allowed in the large water tank, because without water, the water tank will tilt to one side when the weight of a person steps on it. In order to prevent the tank from falling over, the person above must keep the balance of the tank.

And exercising balance is precisely the purpose of running a cylinder, so that you can be able to walk on smooth ground on any rugged road in the future.

However, in order to prevent it from falling into the large water tank and damaging it later, he could only fill it with water first.

Anyway, after the turn back icon appears, he adds points directly. How cool is that?

After filling the big water tank, Zhou Shen took off his shoes and carefully climbed onto the big water tank.

The large water tank filled with water was very slippery. He stood on both sides of the water tank with his feet spread wide and managed to maintain his balance.

After stabilizing his body, he slowly began to move around the edge of the water tank.

Open your arms as if walking on a balance beam.

It not only tests the body's balance, but also tests agility. Before losing balance, you must immediately spread your legs to prevent your body from falling.

Fortunately, he had good balance and agility. After picking up his feet and fingers, he walked along the edge of the tank for more than ten steps. He finally lost his balance and fell to the ground.

He took advantage of his strength and jumped directly from the tank to the ground.

After resting on the ground for a minute, he climbed onto the tank again and continued to practice walking.

Repeat the exercise in this way until it gets dark at night.

Unfortunately, the icon for the Jumping Skill did not appear, which made Zhou Shen a little disappointed.

But soon he cheered up and said to himself in his heart: "How can this legendary Qinggong be so easy to learn? Come on, persist! You will definitely succeed."

Then he put on his iron sand jacket and leggings, adjusted his reverse breathing method, and ran toward home along the rugged path.
