【Should we begin our training now?】
Looking at the prompt in his supernatural vision, Lu Qing chose "yes" this time.
The next moment, a flood of information surged into his mind.
Various insights about health-preserving boxing came to mind like a sudden awakening.
Combining the guidance he received from his master in the mountainside courtyard, Lu Qing found himself spontaneously practicing the health-preserving boxing routine.
First move, second move, third move...
It seems that the master didn't name each move in this set of health-preserving boxing, so Lu Qing could only refer to them in order.
He practiced slowly and somewhat clumsily. After finishing the ninth move, he was about to do the tenth move when he found his body aching.
Even though he knew all the key points of practicing the tenth form in his mind, it was very difficult for his body to perform it.
Lu Qing remembered his master's instructions and knew that the moves after the ninth form were beyond what his current body could handle.
Forcing a drill could potentially harm one's health.
He immediately stopped practicing the tenth move and started practicing the first move again.
And so, Lu Qing practiced the first to ninth forms of the Health Preservation Fist over and over again.
Following the insights in his mind, his moves gradually became smoother, instead of clumsy at first.
If someone were watching, they would notice.
When Lu Qing practiced for the first time, his movements were still very stiff, and he even made crooked moves and couldn't stand steadily.
But when they did it a second time, the movements became noticeably more fluid, and the moves became much more standard.
By the third time, it was starting to look decent and was no longer so clumsy.
The fourth time...
The fifth time...
With each rehearsal, Lu Qing showed visible improvement.
By the time he practiced it nine times, his moves were already very smooth, with each move flowing naturally and his movements precise, making it a pleasure to watch.
It's as if I've been immersed in this set of boxing techniques for a long time.
After the ninth rehearsal, Lu Qingfu had a sudden inspiration and did not continue practicing, slowly ending the exercise.
After finishing his movements, Lu Qing exhaled a breath of hot air.
I felt my breathing was smooth, my mind was peaceful, and my whole body felt warm and comfortable.
He was overjoyed, knowing that he had grasped some of the secrets of the first to ninth forms of this health-preserving boxing.
Next, as long as he continues to practice, it won't be long before he can enter the Qi and Blood Realm that his master mentioned.
At the same time, Lu Qing also began to understand what the ability to simulate cultivation techniques was all about.
To put it bluntly, even if a superpower successfully simulates a cultivation technique, it doesn't mean that the user can directly master that technique.
More often, it was a guiding approach that presented the key points and insights of the practice to his mind.
This will allow him to use these insights to comprehend the techniques more quickly.
However, to truly master the technique and acquire the skill, he still needs to personally put in hard work and practice diligently.
Just like now, his mind is filled with a wealth of insights into the practice of the Health Preservation Fist.
However, he still needs to practice repeatedly to digest these insights and enhance his own power.
"Gurgle..."
A rumbling sound came from Lu Qing's stomach.
Feeling the hunger in his stomach, he knew that the boxing practice he had just done had taken a toll on his body.
Remembering his master's instructions, he returned to the house and picked a piece of cured meat that he had made a few days ago.
Then, from the bucket in the kitchen, they caught a river fish that weighed about two or three pounds, which they had just caught yesterday.
Then I went to the yard and picked some wild vegetables.
The vegetables he planted recently have only just sprouted a little green shoot; otherwise, he wouldn't need to eat wild vegetables.
After preparing all the ingredients, Lu Qing got ready to cook.
First, wash the pot and steam the rice. When the rice is almost cooked, start cooking the dishes.
Before long, a dish of stir-fried wild vegetables with cured pork and steamed fish was ready.
Just as the food was set on the table, Xiaoyan came out of the room rubbing her eyes.
"Xiaoyan, you're awake! Are you hungry? I was just about to go and wake you up."
The little guy touched his tummy and answered seriously, "I think I'm hungry."
"Come and eat if you're hungry," Lu Qing said with a smile.
Children are amazing; they ate snacks at their master's place right before going to sleep.
As a result, she hadn't slept for long before she started complaining of hunger.
After finishing a bowl of rice, Lu Qing felt much less hungry and let out a long sigh of relief.
Aside from the first two days after he woke up, he hadn't felt this hungry in a long time.
It's easy to imagine how much energy that previous boxing practice must have consumed.
Lu Qing ate several bowls of rice and finished all the dishes, leaving nothing behind.
After finishing his meal, Lu Qing, as usual, lay down on the recliner, digesting his food while pondering things.
A lot happened today; he needs to sort it out.
First, there's the change in identity.
Now he has finally become the old doctor's disciple. With this identity, he can finally have a foothold in this strange world.
They won't be like rootless duckweed, not knowing which way to go.
Secondly, there's the information about martial artists that my master mentioned.
The martial artists in this world are even more powerful than Lu Qing had imagined.
Based solely on his master's descriptions of martial artists at several levels of the Acquired Realm, Lu Qing could sense that those martial artists were like non-human beings, each possessing astonishing strength and extremely strong survival abilities.
Not to mention the even higher-level innate martial artists.
Listening to my master, it seems that innate martial artists are even more capable of suppressing the fate of a nation.
It's impossible for Lu Qing not to yearn for martial arts, which can enable individuals to cultivate to such great strength.
Therefore, he decided that in the days to come, he would focus on martial arts training and take medical studies as a secondary task.
Since he possesses special abilities, managing both is not difficult for him.
Since we're going to practice martial arts, we also need to consider other things carefully.
After the meal, Lu Qing estimated that as he gradually mastered the Health Preservation Fist, his appetite would probably increase even more once he officially entered the Qi and Blood Realm.
In this case, we need to make sure our daily diet is adequately nutritious.
The saying goes, "The poor study literature, the rich study martial arts." To maintain the daily expenses required for martial arts training, the costs are likely considerable.
I wonder how long the money I got from selling the red moon carp will last.
Lu Qing decided to try his luck at the strange fish fishing spot again in a few days.
If you're lucky enough to catch one or two more rare fish, then you won't have to worry about money.
After pondering all these things, Lu Qing remembered the matter concerning the original owner's parents.
Judging from what Grandpa Zhang said, there were obviously other hidden reasons behind the death of the original owner's parents.
However, Lu Qing did not intend to inquire about this matter for the time being.
Unless he achieves something in martial arts cultivation in the future and becomes powerful enough, he might investigate the truth for Xiaoyan's sake.
For now, let's just focus on living our own lives.
After thinking for a while on the recliner, Lu Qing considered all the things that came to mind.
Feeling that he had digested his food, he took out the book that his master had given him before he came down the mountain.
