Lijiang Acropolis, Yongtongfang in the east of the city.
Entering a small courtyard, Chen Mu grabbed a four to five meter long wooden stake with a bowl-shaped mouth with one hand.
Punch the sharpened end gently into the ground. Like a plastic fork digging into a cake. The wooden pile easily sank more than a meter into the ground.
Following the same pattern, four pillars were buried. They also built supporting crossbars on the top, spread straw mats and tied them firmly. A simple wooden thatched pergola is ready.
Chen Mu moved the rocking chair he just bought into the pavilion and lay on it comfortably.
"Comfortable."
This was half a month after he arrived at Lijiang Acropolis.
Renting a house, buying furniture, digging a hole in the ground, and stocking up supplies were all a busy chore, and he had no free time until today.
"It's a good thing I left early."
I met that man halfway and used all means to deal with Zuo Sheng.
Anyone who continues to stay in the city and has a relationship with Chengming Zuosheng will be caught in the whirlpool.
"It's better to be in a small town."
He has also been familiar with Lijiang Acropolis these days.
Lijiang City may be said to be small but actually it is not that small either. It is almost the same as Qingshan County.
But it is not too big. Nanyang Fucheng has four acropolis, and Lijiang Acropolis is the smallest.
And because it is located at the southernmost end of Daliang, far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains, its prosperity is not high.
"I have already run to the far south. I should be safe now." Chen Mu slowly drank herbal tea.
Even though it's already October, it's still hot here: "I don't know if there are any cooling instruments."
…
Nanyang Fucheng is prosperous, but it is not safe to live there.
The major forces are spread all over the place, and any movement may cause disaster. Far less comfortable than staying in a small town.
"The Blue-Eyed Golden Ape has completed the marrow transformation. It's time to consider the breathing method."
The completion of Yi Mui is the completion of training. After that, you need to realize God's intention, engrav it in your mind, and then continue to replenish it with nutrients, hoping that one day you will develop courage.
When ordinary people reach this point, they have no direction at all. I have been cultivating my soul for decades without achieving anything.
That's why they flocked to the Dragon Transformation Pill and fell into the trap of the Aristocratic Family, making monsters like the Aristocratic Family even bigger.
"Luckily I have the proficiency."
He began to think about a new breathing method. This is the experience gained from kestrel training.
The soul-nourishing stage focuses on God’s intention.
But God’s intentions are obscure and difficult to understand. The seniors understood that the secret books recorded that people should practice the training technique over and over again, and slowly understand it step by step, and then they can practice the divine intention.
However, practicing the form technique is too physically demanding, and the number of times you can practice it in a day is limited.
The new breathing method is different. Just find a place to sit and practice. Once you become familiar with it, you can even integrate it into every move.
And as long as the whole body muscle control is slightly matched, the effect will be the same as the full version of the training method.
"The divine intention is the root, the breathing method is the trunk, and the body training movements are the branches and leaves." Chen Mu suddenly had a realization.
…
One month later.
To the east of the Lijiang Acropolis is the Lijiang Tower.
The Lijiang Tower is built on the river bank, and a little further north is the Hongde Wharf. Next to it is the largest market in the city, which is the most prosperous area of the entire Lijiang Acropolis.
Chen Mu sat by the window on the first floor, watching the ships passing by on the river.
The translucent gray wall slowly emerges in front of you.
Writing: 2110/10000/second level;
Picture: 1707/10000/second order;
Throw: 3213/10000/Level 4;
Kestrel Training Technique: Extreme;
Cooking skills: 6746/10000/second level;
Pharmacy: 7656/10000/Level 3;
Hidden Blade: 7906/10000/Level 3;
Five Ghosts Moving Mountain Curse: 2714/10000/Level 6;
Blue-Eyed Golden Ape Training Technique: 5689/10000/Level 4;
Shapeshifting: 3063/10000/second level;
I have experience in kestrel training. Under the guidance of proficiency perception, I quickly understood the new breathing method.
Walking, standing, sitting or lying down, he is slowly practicing to improve the Blue-Eyed Golden Ape's physical training skills.
Now that one month has passed, breathing techniques have become almost instinctive. The proficiency level is also over half. Chen Mu was finally willing to go out and come to Lijiang Restaurant, the largest restaurant, to eat and relax.
I took a few more glances. I found that my Hidden Sword proficiency level has reached the second half without any improvement.
There is also a lot of proficiency in pharmacy and cooking skills.
He didn't practice too much on purpose. Only complete a small set of exercises every day. But proficiency silently records these trainings and accumulates them bit by bit.
"As long as I make a little progress every day, time is on my side." Chen Mu felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
Compared with the confusion of the otaku and social animal in the previous life. He still likes to be a homebody now, but he really has a sense of control over himself.
Therefore, although the world is dangerous and chaotic, Chen Mu still likes it.
…
"Have you heard about the fire in Nanyang Mansion in the south of the city? It is said that five streets and two squares were burned down!"
A voice faintly reached Chen Mu's ears.
"Then what kind of fire is it? It is said that some masters used it to destroy several houses with just one stamp of their feet."
"Yes, yes, I heard about it too. It seems to be the murderer who was searched some time ago."
"It is said that that man has great martial arts skills and is invulnerable to all weapons!"
Chen Mu's heart moved: "Has the sincerity been found out?"
"It must have been someone who caused such a big commotion. I don't know what the result will be."
Chen Mu couldn't help but prick up his ears and listen carefully.
"What you said is wrong. How can a person have such an ability? It is said that it is caused by evil spirits!"
"One of the monsters is three meters tall. His body looks like it is made of black iron. His claws are bigger than a cattail leaf fan. He can blow someone to death with his breath."
"There is also one that makes a strange cry like the beating of a copper bell, and anyone who hears it will immediately fall into a coma."
"In the end, a fair fairy descended from the sky and beat the evil monster to death."
"Don't believe it, many people saw that fairy falling from the sky riding an eagle."
"With a wave of his hand, he released heavenly fire and burned the demon to death in one fell swoop."
Chen Mu: "..."
Well, market rumors are just so unreliable.
demon? Fairy? Skyfire? Ha...it's more exciting than what the storyteller tells.
"It would be great if Jie Jia was here."
This big killer who lives in the underground world has always been well-informed.
It's a pity that it's a money grab.
…
At home, Chen Mu carefully analyzed the news he just heard.
"The search must have stopped."
Nearly three months have passed, and the death incident of Sikou Yu has finally come to an end. At least it's over.
"The sincerity status is unknown. He may have been killed or escaped, but the search has been stopped. The result is probably not good." Chen Mu guessed secretly.
The aristocratic family is aloof and wants to avenge Sikou Yu, so there is no way it can just be let go.
"Nanyang Fucheng has finally settled down." Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's just hard work for Taoist Cheng Zhi." Chen Mu looked pitiful.
Do you want to go back to Nanyang Mansion?
After thinking for a long time, Chen Mu still shook his head.
"It's really uncomfortable to live in Nanyang Mansion."
It's too prosperous, and there's always a mixed bag of good and bad people. Who knows, a powerful character will pop up one day.
"Although the evil-proofing magic weapon is powerful and can block natural disasters, man-made disasters are more common and difficult to prevent."
Chen Mu decided to temporarily live in Lijiang City for a while.
"Anyway, I have five ghost bags, so I'm not afraid of evil spirits."
Before, I had no way to protect myself, it was like walking naked in the ice and snow, shivering every moment. I always wanted to hide in a safe place, so I went to Nanyang Fucheng.
Now that all five ghosts are out, although I don’t know how powerful they are, they should be able to protect themselves well.
"Honestly, let's brush up on the training skills."
