The sun sets in the west, and the clouds in the sky are as red as fire.
A cool breeze began to pick up in the yard.
Chen Mu sat at the square table in the room. He opened the door and watched the sky gradually darken in the distance. He put a piece of fried pork belly into his mouth.
The texture is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the balance of spicy and salty flavors makes Chen Mu couldn't help but nod.
This is just the first level of cooking skills.
In previous lives, it was said that food should not be disappointed, but most people only eat to fill their stomachs.
Busy work takes up too much energy. The fast pace of life leaves no time for anything else.
"I need to brush up on my cooking proficiency in the future."
We’ve all traveled through time, so what’s wrong with taking some time to think about food?
Miao Painting Studio helps with portrait business, so I don't have to worry about income.
After a while, I found Yin Shoes to run errands and help buy a batch of medicinal materials, and the martial arts training was no longer hindered.
Think about the hard times I lived before, and then think about the present.
Chen Mu happily picked up a piece of cold leafy vegetables and chewed it leisurely.
As soon as he looked up, he saw a black shadow rolling down from the wall silently.
Silver boots?
You said you didn't want others to know, so the other party sneaked in over the wall?
Professional enough!
Chen Mugang was about to stand up to greet him, and when he raised his eyes, he looked at each other.
Silver-white beard and hair, narrowed eyes, expressionless face...
Isn't this the killer from Chenjiacun? !
As if the pause button had been pressed, Chen Mu stiffened and froze in place as soon as he was halfway up.
Jie Jia: "..."
it's fate!
"Ahem, how about we deal with it together?" Chen Mu slowly sat down and pretended to be relaxed.
"I'm afraid of being poisoned to death." Jie Jia said calmly without raising his eyelids.
"Old man, it seems that your misunderstanding of me is not that deep." Chen Mu shook his head helplessly.
Jie Jia's eyes slowly moved and stared at Chen Mu's sleeves.
Misunderstand? How much training does it take for you to spread poison and misunderstanding at the same time?
"Why are you looking for silver boots?" Jie Jia said expressionlessly.
Silver boots?
Is this killer old man the silver boots from the Xue family warehouse?
A hitman doing the legwork?
Chen Mu's eyes became strange.
Is the profession of killer so difficult?
"I want to buy a batch of medicinal materials." Just don't come here to kill yourself.
"List." Jie Jia's words were concise and to the point.
"Here." Chen Mu quickly took out the list of medicinal materials that he had prepared long ago.
In addition to the necessary medicinal materials for kestrel training, he also added many other things, mainly to confuse the audience.
"How much is the commission?" Chen Mu asked.
"Ten...twenty taels." Jie Jia said calmly with no expression on his face.
Chen Mu: "..."
Did you just want to say twelve? !
This is clearly blackmail! That's too much!
Chen Muyi was filled with indignation: "Okay. This is the commission. This is half of the payment. Please keep it."
"Ha..." Jie Jia rolled his eyes, looked sideways at Chen Mu, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, picked up the silver coins on the table, and disappeared in a flash.
Chen Mu stared at the other person's disappearing figure, and it took him a while to come back to his senses.
Depend on! I just wanted to find an errand boy, so why did I find a killer? !
But this man didn't seem to have any intention of killing me.
He appeared in front of me, not as a killer, but as the silver boots of the Xue family warehouse.
Chen Mu felt slightly relieved.
Moreover, the opponent is a killer. Judging from the ghostly speed just now, he must be very skilled.
Aren't you afraid of prying eyes when you find someone to buy medicine on your own?
Now that we have this killer silver boots purchasing agent, who dares to inquire about him?
So, this is an unexpected surprise?
“It’s just a bit expensive!”
For twenty taels of silver, this old man dared to speak!
Chen Mu's heart throbbed with pain.
"Forget it, just spend money to buy peace." Chen Mu shook his head helplessly, picked up the food that was sprinkled with snake venom, dug a hole and buried it in the corner.
"I was impulsive and wasted a table of good food."
…
In the year 638 of Daliang, on December 23, the weather turned cold.
Chen Mu got up in the faint morning light as usual.
Putting on his thickened coat, Chen Mu opened the door and felt a blast of cold air. The temperature feels like late autumn in the north in my previous life.
He has been in this world for more than seven months, and without a mobile phone or computer, it is natural for him to go to bed early and get up early.
Jumping from the westernmost house to the easternmost house, Chen Mu washed and cooked.
Make a fire to boil water, wash the white wheat, pick and wash vegetables, all in an orderly manner.
The bonus of cooking skills makes cooking more convenient.
Then chop some vegetable leaves, mix them with specially purchased grass seeds, and pour them into the chicken coop under the west wall.
Five hens clucked and scrambled for food, and Chen Mu couldn't help but smile with relief.
He has been raising chickens for more than a month, which have provided him with many eggs.
…
Returning to the stove to add firewood, guessing that the white wheat would take a while to ripen, Chen Mu took off his slightly bulky coat and said, "I just have time to move around."
Start by spending a few minutes moving all your joints, then start jumping and running in small circles around the yard.
The movements started slowly, then became faster and faster, and soon increased to the speed of a 100-meter race.
Every time his toes hit the ground, he felt as if his body was about to fly out of control. That was the powerful inertia brought by the extreme speed.
But the moment the toes hit the ground, the muscles all over the body began to pulse suddenly, and strong power burst out from the toes.
Either forward or backward, the body that is about to lose control can always accelerate, stop, or even suddenly turn backwards according to the intention.
This is the kestrel training technique, a training technique that is good at moving and running.
A quarter of an hour later, a series of figures in the yard suddenly stopped.
Chen Mu took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, completing one cycle of the training breathing technique.
Fine beads of sweat seeped out from his forehead, and a sense of pleasure and comfort spread throughout his limbs.
Exercise causes the brain to produce endorphins, which makes people feel happy.
He had always heard about this in his previous life, but as a fat otaku, he had never experienced it.
Now he's experienced it, and he's enjoying it.
As he was slowly stretching, a sudden realization came to his mind.
Immediately afterwards, raging heat surged out from everywhere in his body.
The muscles all over the body began to squirm involuntarily, as if there were little mice under the skin that kept crawling around.
There were tingling sensations all over the body, and a special tissue formed under the skin.
It took a long time for Chen Mu to come back to his senses.
Feeling the aftertaste in his mind, Chen Mu couldn't help but grin: "Breakthrough?!"
Writing: 1445/10000/second level;
Picture: 1353/10000/second order;
Throw: 3316/10000/Level 2;
Kestrel training technique: 8/10000/second level;
Cooking skills: 2642/10000/level one;
He rolled up his left sleeve and pinched his skin.
A soft leather texture comes through.
"It's like wearing a thin layer of leather armor."
Waving his fist out of thin air, the wind whined.
"The strength has also become stronger."
He kicked the ground with his toes, his whole body's strength suddenly exploded, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.
The earthy yellow courtyard wall seven or eight meters away zoomed in rapidly.
The next moment, his body almost stopped against the wall.
He exerted more force and returned to his original position in the blink of an eye.
"The speed and reaction are faster! At least I can beat myself by two steps!"
"Defense, strength, speed, reaction, and physical fitness are all improved!"
"This is the art of training!"
At this moment, when I think about Lu Baotou who jumped five or six meters, I suddenly feel that it is no longer out of reach.
"Isn't it just liver proficiency?"
After thinking about it, Chen Mu bent down and picked up a stone.
Woo!
puff!
A hole as thick as an index finger appeared in the mud wall.
Through the round hole, you can even see the street outside the wall.
"And also increased the power of the Locust Stone?"
"good!"
At this time, a refreshing fragrance passed into the nostrils, and the white wheat rice was already cooked.
"Breaking through the second level of training skills and achieving the goal of Yijin, you have to reward yourself no matter what."
“Fried square pork, cold vegetables, and some flavored bacon. It’s so delicious!”
