Chapter 12: One-Tenth of the Wind Chaser Girl

Turning over the yellowed books, it seemed as if there was a breeze passing by.

"Take the five animals as your shape and forge true spirit bones."

This simple sentence covers the true meaning of the five animals body building.

Continuing to turn over, Anle began to browse roughly. The books not only have written records, but also pictures and moves.

The five animals body building exercises are divided into five parts, namely tiger, deer, bear, ape, and bird. The meaning of the five animals is divided into different moves, a total of 54 moves, 13 tiger moves, 9 deer moves, 9 bear moves, 10 ape moves, and 13 bird moves.

There are introductions on the pictures, and there are also methods of training such as mutual generation and mutual restraint.

After reading the whole thing, the pictures on each page are vivid, showing the form and spirit of the animals vividly.

Going back to the first page and starting to read, his martial arts foundation is almost zero, so he naturally has to start from the beginning.

The first level of martial arts body building is to open up the qi and blood.

The blood in the human body is constantly circulating, which is the basis for building human strength. The circulation of blood is driven by an unknown force, and this force is the treasure of the human body.

To strengthen the body and refine the blood and qi is to enhance the power of this qi, so that people have supreme power, which can split mountains and rocks, block rivers and break seas!

Anle was fascinated by it. The method of refining the mind and the method of strengthening the body are completely different paths, but there is a reason for the two to practice together. The strong power of the mind can naturally promote the circulation of qi and blood, and it is easier to open the qi and blood.

But in fact, most practitioners open the qi and blood, sense the circulation of qi and blood, and temper the mind and step into meditation.

People call it the method of inner vision and meditation, which is also a more orthodox method of practicing mind and body together.

Of course, Anle has already successfully entered the meditation, so he does not need to take this path of inner vision and meditation, but instead needs to use the power of the mind to reverse the qi and blood!

"Tiger training, four limbs off the ground, three throws forward, two throws backward, stretch the waist, side foot up to the sky, then return to the ground, seven throws forward and backward..."

Anle studied the text annotations and referred to the pattern carved on the other side to comprehend.

Because Anle's [Cultivation Genius] Dao Fruit has been blessed with three strands of time and energy, now Anle's ability to comprehend has improved a lot. Although there is no additional blessing from [Sword Dancer], it is not difficult for Anle to comprehend.

After reading and remembering it in his heart, Anle began to practice the tiger style of the Five Animals Body Building Exercise in the house.

Bending down like a tiger, with four limbs on the ground, according to the movements in the pattern, he corrected his posture bit by bit, making each posture as standard as possible.

Anle practiced the Thirteen Tiger Styles one by one. With the blessing of the Taoist fruit of cultivation genius, his mind was very clear. With the weak mental power generated by entering into meditation, he had fine adjustments and control over the degree of muscle relaxation and the twisting range of his arms.

Even the bending degree of his ten fingers was precisely controlled!

"Hu, shu, hu, shu..."

While practicing the Tiger Style, Anle exhaled and inhaled rhythmically, similar to the breathing method, but different from the basic breathing method bought from the bookstore, it felt like imitating the breathing of a tiger.

And the muscles, membranes, tendons, etc., under the stretching of the movements, faintly felt different degrees of sourness and tingling.

After a while, he was sweating profusely and soaked his clothes.

Anle panted violently. Just after practicing the Thirteen Tiger Styles, Anle felt that the blood flow in his body increased, as if the air in his body was rising, and the air was driving the blood circulation!

The room was too narrow, and Anle continued to practice the tiger style, tirelessly, and supplemented by the power of his mind, correcting the wrong movements.

Unconsciously, the night became darker, so thick that his fingers could not be seen.

But inside the house, Anle was panting violently, his eyes were as bright as the moonlight.

After practicing for an unknown number of times, Anle only felt a very obvious airflow rising in his body. His mind could even control this airflow, pushing the blood to circulate quickly and nourishing vitality!

"When the qi is born, the blood moves!"

"The first stage of body forging, open the qi and blood, it's done!"

In the darkness, Anle laughed happily, feeling the powerful strength surging in his body, Anle felt that he could beat one tenth of the wind chasing girl at this moment!

With the blessing of the Tao fruit, Anle felt that practicing seemed not difficult.

Light the lights.

The room was brighter. Anle moved the table and chairs back to their original places, frowning slightly: "The room is too small, and it is not possible to practice. We have to move to a bigger place."

"After returning from painting at Lin's house tomorrow, I will go to the pawnshop to find a bigger courtyard."

Anle got up, fetched some water, took a bath, washed away his fatigue, sat cross-legged on the bed, but did not choose to sleep. Instead, he took the books, held the light, and began to read.

Practice is indeed important, but the imperial examination is also the top priority, which is the key to whether Anle can reach a high position.

If you want to be among the top Jinshi, reading is essential. Diligence makes you proficient, while play makes you waste. If you fail to do enough questions and fail, it will be too regrettable.

The night is deep, and the candlelight is dim.

The sound of the young man reciting and reading, accompanied by the silent night, lingering in the beams.

……

……

The next day.

Anle took a short nap for an hour and then got up. He practiced the Thirteen Tiger Styles several times in the small room. After sweating and regaining strength, he simply packed up, changed into green clothes and went out.

It was a new day, and Anle felt refreshed. He could start to absorb the energy of the years again, and he was a little impatient.

Anle left the inn with the greetings from the waiter and the shopkeeper.

Today, the sky was drizzling. The weather in spring is always like this, but the spring rain is like oil, which is refreshing.

Holding the oil-paper umbrella given by the shopkeeper, Anle strolled along the long street. The long street of Lin'an Prefecture was extremely lively. Even if the spring rain fell, it was difficult to extinguish the enthusiasm of pedestrians to go shopping.

Walking on the bluestone road, he came to the edge of West Lake.

The pines on the mountain are thousands of layers of green, and the moon is like a pearl in the center of the waves.

The West Lake under the spring rain is more lively, and the rain is more poetic. Literati and poets hold oil-paper umbrellas and stroll along the embankment, or recite poems, or enjoy the scenery, looking at the flower boats singing day and night in the lake, with eagerness and expectation in their eyes, looking forward to the beautiful figure in the flower boats.

Anle followed the flow of people and naturally could be classified as this kind of literati and poets.

On this side of West Lake, he was familiar with it and found the old position. In fact, he could choose to go up to the Wanghu Tower. He had no money before, but now he has ten Yuanling Tongbao and can afford it.

However, there is no need. He approached the white jade railings on the embankment by the lake and waited for a moment.

The familiar sound of breaking through the air came.

Above the blue sky with drizzling rain, a gorgeous woman in a white dress and a veil came flying with a sword.

The sword light was clear and cut through the chaotic spring rain.

It was the most beautiful woman on the lake, the sword fairy Yunrou.

Anle stood with an oil-paper umbrella, his eyes looking through the drizzle at this gorgeous woman.

Why did this woman who condensed her inner elixir at the age of 18 fall into the dust?

Anle still couldn't figure it out.

But Anle was grateful to the sword fairy. It was because of the sword fairy that he, Anle, could quietly absorb the air of time.

Thinking of this, Anle's heart moved, and he absorbed a wisp of air of time from the fairy Yunrou who was still flying the sword.

Fairy Yunrou half covered her face with a veil, her eyelashes trembled, and she swept through the crowd beside her, and met Anle's eyes.

It's not that she sensed that Anle was taking advantage of her, but because she discovered the hidden blood and qi in Anle, and the overflowing and restrained mental power.

A cultivator, but just opened up the blood and qi, so he was a little weak.

The overflowing mental power was quite condensed, and it was obvious that the method of refining the mind that he practiced was quite advanced. Those who could possess such a method of refining the mind must have a good status.

Nodding slightly to Anle, Fairy Yunrou landed in the flower boat. Several literati around Anle thought that the fairy was greeting them, and they couldn't help but get excited, and the voices of reciting poems were a little high-pitched.

Anle was startled, and of course he realized that Fairy Yunrou was greeting him. This was the first time that the two had a real intersection.

Anle raised the corner of his lips slightly, smiled, and nodded in return, and by the way, quietly plucked another wisp of time from the fairy.

Unfortunately, the two wisps of time were gray, not gold, and could not condense the Dao fruit.

Fairy Yunrou did not have any further interactions with Anle, and quickly entered the flower boat and disappeared.

Anle had already taken advantage of the situation today, so he did not stay any longer.

In fact, there were dozens of flower boats on the West Lake, and there were practitioners coming here on weekdays. However, the practitioners were not like these idle literati who gathered on the embankment and pretended to be romantic.

In the prosperous and luxurious Lin'an Prefecture, there was a romantic place called "Linhua Pavilion" that was specially designed to welcome practitioners. That was where practitioners often visited, and many flower boats on the West Lake actually belonged to Linhua Pavilion.

Holding an umbrella, Anle walked past the long street with shadowy figures and headed towards the Lin Mansion.

However, after just a few steps, shouts came from afar.

Anle turned around in confusion and saw a familiar figure striding towards him in the bustling crowd.

He had a knife on his waist and was wearing a black suit.

This man was Huang Xian, the head of the Heiya Constable who took him to the Lin Mansion.
