The Legend of the Condor Heroes: From Being Expelled from Peach Blossom Island

Chapter 57 Home Life
At the first light of dawn, the breeze blowing in from Taihu Lake dissipated the remaining heat from the summer night.

Wu Chengyu got up at the hour of Mao when the sun just rose above the surface, and practiced until the hour of Chen.

Starting with the Yanqing Fist, he first practiced chain steps and various leg techniques, followed by punches, palms, hooks, and claws, high smashes, low smashes, middle crosses, long hands, close elbows, and close leaning. In the small courtyard, he turned sideways, flipped over, circled, or hooked. His body moved like the wind, his punches were like thunder, his waist was like a bow snake, and his neck was like a solitary crane.

It has been more than a month since Wu Chengyu returned to Wujiaopo, and he can finally practice martial arts without distraction.

Now Wu Chengyu no longer practices the Bi Bo Palm. The biggest feature of the Bi Bo Palm is the clever use of internal force like the triple power when performing the palm technique. In terms of practicing hand, eye, body and footwork alone, the Bi Bo Palm is far less comprehensive than the Yan Qing Fist.

In all these years on Peach Blossom Island, Wu Chengyu had only learned the Bi Bo Palm technique in addition to the internal energy techniques. After practicing for five years, he had already mastered the operation of internal energy. Now, he was more inclined to combine the internal energy of the Bi Bo Palm technique with the Yan Qing Fist. After a month, he had barely gotten started, but it also made the Yan Qing Fist more powerful.

After three or four rounds of Yan Qing boxing, Wu Chengyu took off his shirt, revealing his clearly visible ribs. The ten-year-old boy could not be described as skinny, but he was definitely not strong either.

The next thing Wu Chengyu will practice is the Ox and Horse Post, which is also the top priority of his practice now.

The Ox-Horse Posture is divided into four forms. Each form must be practiced before the next one can be practiced. In a month, Wu Chengyu just mastered the first form: Act like an ox or a horse.

Don't take the name as it suggests. It definitely doesn't mean that Wu Chengyu will be asked to work like a slave for others. Wu Chengyu has enough experience in this area.

The greatest function of this move is to train Wu Chengyu's whole body muscles and bones, making him as strong as an ox or a horse, with strong muscles and bones and great strength.

There are nine movements in total when doing the "cow-horse" routine, starting from the neck and going down little by little, shoulder blades, chest and ribs, spine, arms, waist, hips, legs, ankles, each movement is connected to the joints, and each joint is a checkpoint for the next movement. The process of breaking through the checkpoints is like pulling tendons and dislocating bones, which is by no means easy.

Wu Chengyu clenched his teeth, seemingly expressionless, but sweat dripped from his body. As his movements changed, several pea-sized lumps of flesh appeared on his body, moving constantly on his body surface, as if there were a few little mice burrowing under his skin.

It took Wu Chengyu half an hour to complete the nine movements. When the last movement was finished, he breathed a sigh of relief, but his body emitted a series of creaking sounds like a bowstring that was stretched tight and then suddenly released, just like marbles rolling down the roof late at night.

This sound is described as a string of whips, representing the true beginning of the ox and horse pile.

In a month, Wu Chengyu became more and more proficient in this move. He still had energy left after finishing the exercise and was no longer as limp as when he first started practicing.

But the effect of the practice is amazing. Wu Chengyu's qualifications have not improved significantly yet, but his arms have directly increased by 50 kilograms of strength. The most important thing is that after each practice, the Achilles tendons of his calves will feel slightly warm. According to the description in the secret book, long-term practice of the Ox and Horse Post can stimulate the development of the Achilles tendon.

The length of the Achilles tendon of an average person is generally 15-20 cm. In the past, the Achilles tendon lengths of those black people who jumped very fast in the NBA were very amazing. For example, there was a player named Antetokounmpo, whose Achilles tendon length reached an incredible 34 cm.

People with long Achilles tendons have amazing explosive power in their legs and their jumping ability is even better than others. If they practice Qinggong, they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. When fighting with others, the first step they take will be as fast as lightning, and no one can react in time.

However, how long each person's Achilles tendon can develop is basically determined by genes and is difficult to change after birth. However, the Cow and Horse Stance can effectively stimulate the development of the Achilles tendon. From this point of view, even if it is a basic body-building exercise, the Cow and Horse Stance can be called a magical skill.

After practicing the Ox and Horse Posture, you must take a medicinal bath immediately. The recipe for the medicinal bath is also provided on the bamboo slips, which can greatly restore the damage to the body caused by practicing the Ox and Horse Posture. Otherwise, hidden injuries will accumulate over a long period of time, and you will end up paralyzed all over.

Although the bamboo slips plug-in is not as omnipotent as other plug-in systems and is too low-key, Wu Chengyu is extremely satisfied with it.

While Wu Chengyu was practicing, the bamboo slips monitored him. After the practice, they would immediately point out any omissions in Wu Chengyu's practice and provide the correct method. This was the most powerful function of the bamboo slips in Wu Chengyu's eyes. It was like having an extremely experienced teacher who would never be wrong, constantly pointing out any problems in his practice. Practicing martial arts in isolation was simply not possible, and Wu Chengyu had no desire to seek a master in his lifetime, so the bamboo slips were his greatest protection.

"Brother, the potion is ready, come quickly."

The person who was speaking was A Ku. After returning to Wujiaopo, she felt like she had fallen into a honey pot. The little one was very greedy. Her past experiences made her think everything was delicious. In just one month, she gained weight again. She was no longer a stick-like figure. To say she had baby fat was a bit of an understatement. She had simply become a little fat girl.

Every day, Ah Ku would get up when Wu Chengyu was halfway through his practice, run to the bathroom to light a fire, then put the prepared herbs into the bathtub. After the water boiled, he would lower the heat and wait for Wu Chengyu to perform his self-cooking skills.

In her little mind, she didn't quite understand why Wu Chengyu did this, so every time she saw Wu Chengyu struggling in pain in the bathtub, she couldn't help but cry.

Wu Chengyu looked at the potion that was about to boil, and he actually felt uneasy. Every time he had to grit his teeth and sit in it. The whole process was like torture. Not only did he have to endure the high temperature, but also the stinging pain of the medicine seeping into his body. Every joint seemed to be disassembled and reassembled, and every bone felt like it was being gnawed by ants.

The whole process took another half an hour, until the potion was completely colorless and its efficacy was fully absorbed. Only then did he feel cool and smooth all over his body, and he knew that he had returned to the human world again.

"Brother, the herbs needed for the medicinal bath are all used up. If you don't buy some today, you won't be able to cook for yourself tomorrow."

A Ku had a pigtail tied up in the air and spoke in a very serious tone.

Wu Chengyu frowned after hearing this. In fact, after returning to Wujiaopo, everything was generally good. For example, the small courtyard where his parents lived in the past was well preserved, and every blade of grass and every tree was the same as when Wu Chengyu lived back then. This alone showed that the family was thoughtful.

But some things are not as we wish.

At this moment, Wu Chengyu heard the sound of knocking on the door. The door was not locked. The person knocked twice and walked in.

"Chengyu, Xiao Twenty-one, come out quickly." The person who came was Wu Zhenghui, the cousin Wu Chengyu met when she just returned home.

Wu Chengyu hurried out to greet him. Wu Zhenghui waved his hand and said, "When you meet the clan leader and other elders on weekdays, it's always good to be polite. These elders like obedient and polite children the most. But when it comes to me, there's no need for so many conventional formalities.

Here, this is your family's money and grain for the next season, please keep it."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Zhenghui waved his hand, and his servants brought in a box containing 10 taels of silver, rice, flour, salt, oil, and some meat. For Wu Chengyu and A Ku alone, 10 taels of silver for three months was enough food, and such a life was already comfortable enough.

Wu Zhenghui continued, "Fourth Brother Zhengliang is back. When he heard about you, he asked me to take you to see him."

I received a message from the website yesterday, and I actually have the opportunity to be included in the third round of recommendations. I must thank everyone for their support.

As for the plot about Bai Xianer, I didn’t know that everyone’s reaction would be so big. I don’t understand it but I accept it. I want to change it, but I can’t think of a direction. It’s impossible to delete so many chapters. It’s not difficult to delete those that have been published. Does anyone have any suggestions?
