Five kinds of medicine in another world

A Gu came back from the yard and lay down to rest early.

A Gu knew that his body needed rest.

He understood the principle that sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood, both in his past life and now.

The next day, early in the morning.

After opening his eyes, Ah Gu turned over and got up, taking out the basic horizontal sword technique that he had been thinking about all night.

Open the horizontal sword method and start reading.

After a careful look, I found that this book on basic horizontal sword techniques really only contains some basics.

The basic horizontal sword method records the basic methods on how to reach the way of power, the way of spirit, and the way of God.

In the Way of Strength, the path to becoming a martial artist is simple.

There is only one set of moves and one set of breathing techniques, called the First Training of Horizontal Sword.

The Way of the Spirit talks about how to absorb the spirit and store the spiritual power in one's own spiritual field.

There are only a few simple tips on how to absorb spirits and a simple map for the flow of spiritual power.

The way of God is even simpler, just a simple line with three dots on it, as if forming the outline of a knife.

In the horizontal sword method, this diagram is called the basic horizontal sword visualization diagram.

“What a simple visualization diagram.”

A Gu couldn't help but sigh. There were only three points, which seemed to be the handle, blade and tip of the knife.

Is this also called a knife?

A Gu thought about it and decided that since he had three months left, he might as well start with the simplest one.

Ah Gu carefully looked at the method of cultivating the way of power to become a martial artist.

Then he looked at the knife that he had not taken back yesterday, and thought to himself, so that's it.

Yesterday, when A Gu saw the disciples put away their swords, he thought that Chang Sanhao and others had forgotten to take them back.

It turns out that when practicing the way of power, one needs to rely on external forces.

And the external force is this iron knife.

An iron sword that matches your own strength!

So, A Gu picked up the 50-jin iron knife that he had not taken back yesterday.

The sword holder was set up according to the first posture of the basic horizontal sword method.

This action is roughly the same as the one tested yesterday.

The difference is that yesterday's assessment required holding the handle of the knife with the right hand and placing the left hand under the blade to support the blade.

The first move of the horizontal sword is even more outrageous and more difficult. The right hand still holds the handle of the sword, while the left hand is used to hold the blade.

After raising my arms flat in front of my chest, a tingling sensation came over me again.

However, after Ah Gu combined the simple breathing method, he felt that the iron knife that made him tremble yesterday didn't seem so heavy anymore.

A Gu held it for a while, and felt that the effect was not as great as he had imagined, so he carefully looked through the horizontal sword method again.

I found that the weight of the knife marked below is heavier than my own strength.

There is no specific detail on how heavy it is, but it must be heavy.

Ah Gu suddenly remembered the elder's technique of carrying weighted spiritual texts yesterday. He thought that since the outer sect elder knew how to do it yesterday, there was no reason why Chang Sanhao couldn't do it.

So he took the knife and went to the middle room to find Teacher Chang Sanhao.

"Dong dong dong."

"Who is it? Why are you knocking on the door so early in the morning? Don't you have to sleep?"

Chang Sanhao's impatient voice came from the inner room.

"Teacher Chang, I'm Ah Gu. I want to ask you to help me with something."

"Squeak."

The door was pushed open and Chang Sanhao walked out of the house wearing thin clothes.

He looked at A Gu with sleepy eyes and said to him

"Ah Gu, what do you want from me?"

Ah Gu scratched the back of his head and said to Chang Sanhao a little embarrassedly:

"Teacher, my sword is too light. I want to practice the first form of horizontal sword. Can you help me put some weight on it?"

Chang Sanhao smiled at the knife that Ah Gu was holding and said, "How difficult is this? This is what I should do. Take it."

After hearing this, A Gu pushed the knife forward.

Chang Sanhao took the knife with his right hand, pressed it lightly with his index finger, and returned it to A Gu.

He said to Gu, "Okay, I cast two spells on it. One is the weight-bearing spell you saw yesterday. The weight of the knife has increased by 30 kilograms."

Chang Sanhao paused and continued, "The other one is called the Delayed Weight-bearing Spiritual Mantra. Every other day, the weight of the sword will increase by ten kilograms until it reaches 500 kilograms."

"That is to say, this knife will increase to 50 kilograms in 580 days."

After hearing this, Ah Gu asked curiously, "Teacher Chang, yesterday I was able to lift a 50-jin knife. Does that prove that my strength is more than 50 jin?"

Chang Sanhao chuckled and said, "That's not how you think, kid."

"First of all, regardless of other things, you used both hands to hold the knife yesterday."

"Secondly, the elder yesterday didn't measure your strength. He measured something called knife-holding strength. The 48 kilograms measured yesterday means that you can hold a 48-kilogram knife and make an effective attack. It doesn't mean that you have 48 kilograms of strength."

"The real strength of one arm should be around 48-48 catties. You can barely hold a -catties sword and make one or two effective attacks. This is the limit. It doesn't mean that you only have catties of strength in one arm."

"Of course, the final determination of whether you are a martial arts apprentice is not based on whether you can lift a 300-jin sword. You have to at least lift a 330-jin sword to barely reach the initial stage of a martial arts apprentice."

"I see."

Ah Gu suddenly understood.

I thought to myself that I felt something was wrong after testing my strength yesterday. I could lift a 50-jin knife, so I shouldn't only have 50-jin of strength.

Although that knife was indeed difficult to use.

It turns out that what is measured is the knife holding force. Now all the puzzles can be explained instantly.

After understanding everything, Ah Gu said to Chang Sanhao: "Thank you for your guidance, Teacher Chang. I will go back to practice now."

"I'll remind you one more thing."

Chang Sanhao suddenly called Ah Gu to a stop, and then said: "Since you don't understand anything, I'm just reminding you."

"In the first three months, new disciples have benefits, including three meals a day, each with one dish, one rice, and one soup."

"The dish is made with first-level monster meat and cooked by a spirit chef. It tastes delicious and is, of course, of great benefit to the practice of the Way of Strength."

"There is divine mind grass in the soup, which is also very beneficial for practicing the way of the gods and becoming a mind disciple."

"As for the rice, it is made from elementary spiritual rice. One pound of spiritual rice is about one ounce of gold. It is good for becoming a spiritual disciple."

"High-intensity training is best done before or after meals."

"Thank you, Teacher Chang, for reminding me. Ah Gu will never forget it."

A Gu clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to Chang Sanhao.

Chang Sanhao waved to A Gu, turned around and walked back to his room.

Before I could close the door, Chang Sanhao's voice came: "If you don't understand anything, just ask me. I love doing good things the most."

After saying that, Chang Sanhao closed the door and left A Gu alone.

A Gu looked at the closed door, bowed to Chang Sanhao's house again, then turned and walked towards his own room, ready to start his own path of cultivation.
