From Prisoner to Si Chen

‘White Cross Bodybuilding Technique? Secret skill? ’

In the dark basement, Gilan's eyes lit up.

His heart was beating fast, and a strong desire drove him to slowly open the notebook.

Wow... Wow.

Under the flickering candlelight, the pages of the notebook were turned over.

There are dense handwritings written in black ink on the paper, as well as the corresponding diagram of the human body structure. Although it looks quite complicated, it clearly states the precautions and basic principles of practicing this ancient physical exercise.

"White Cross Body Training" points out that the human body contains four main liquids, namely mucus, yellow bile, blood and black bile. They also correspond to the four basic elements of the world, water, fire, wind and earth. .

Strengthening muscles and bones and mastering combat skills are just the external foundation, but the internal core is to strengthen the four liquids in the body. Only in this way can one break the shackles of the human body and gain an extraordinary physique.

These theories were all born out of a famous alchemy master "Para Celsus".

Ji Lan was startled when he saw this.

He thought of the "miasma theory" and "mystical dressing theory" described by the girl Maiev. These seemed to also originate from the "Para Celsus", but Maiev only knew this name three hundred years ago. The ancient man was a great scholar, but he didn't know that he had another identity as an "alchemist".

Gillan continued to look back at the notebook, flipping through it excitedly and feverishly.

Compared with foreign objects such as firearms and weapons, this is a secret skill that can directly improve yourself!

"White Cross Exercise" later explains that the entire exercise process can be roughly divided into four stages, which are directly named after mucus, yellow bile, blood and black bile.

When a new practitioner enters the first stage of "slime", his or her strength will greatly increase as the body strengthens, until it is comparable to a large beast. According to real events, the average fist strength of the original "Healing Knights" was an astonishing 2,000 pounds.

The second stage of "yellow bile" will improve the practitioner's endurance and indirectly enhance the body's flexibility, flexibility and speed. Also according to real event records, a knight in the "Healing Knights" raced against an elite horse while wearing a full-coverage armor weighing 60 pounds. He ran continuously for ten minutes before losing due to exhaustion.

The third stage of "blood" can greatly improve the practitioner's hematopoietic ability, resilience and wound healing ability. Normal trauma, such as sword wounds, bruises or lacerations, can be healed in just a few days, even if it is A fracture only takes one to two weeks.

Finally, the description of the fourth stage of "black bile" seems a bit mysterious. What it enhances is the person's own spirit and will. It is somewhat vague, leaving Gillan confused.

However, some real events are recorded here for reference. One of them is "Agni Baldwin", the deputy leader of the "Healing Knights". He once single-handedly attacked the town named "Leia" and kicked into pieces a fifteen centimeter thick wall. Solid wrought iron city gate.

"Break the city gate with one kick?" Ji Lan opened his eyes wide and murmured in disbelief. "Are you sure this isn't a magical knight novel?"

Jilan's hands holding the notes trembled slightly, unable to calm down the excitement in his heart.

But soon, he discovered some words at the end of the note, which were comments left by Secretary Espy:

"The 'Healing Knights' that appeared in the early 17th century were an extremely mysterious armed force. They rose very quickly and intervened with a strong stance in the 'Battle of Yongsa' that spread across the continent at that time, laying the foundation for future generations. The key role... It's a pity that this mysterious body-building method needs to be combined with the secret medicine specially prepared within the Knights to be effective, otherwise it is just empty talk."

"However, with the mysterious retreat of the Knights, this secret medicine has long been lost. Unfortunately, it is no longer possible to verify the authenticity of the 'White Cross Body Training Technique', nor to recreate the powerful personal force of the past."

Ji Lan looked startled, and her heart skipped a beat.

‘Need to match the corresponding secret medicine? ’ He couldn’t help but frown. ‘Where can I find this! ’

But soon, Gilan remembered his mysterious ability "Bailan".

‘Those colored points can instantly improve my firearms proficiency. Can they also allow me to master this kind of body-building technique? ’

The fire of hope ignited in his heart again.

Gillan opened the front page and read it carefully.

The colored numbers in his eyes lit up slightly, seeming to respond.

'feasible! ’ His eyes lit up, and he immediately followed the practice steps and began to try the first stage of “slime” exercise.

He casually placed the double-barreled shotgun across the workbench, and simply stood in the cramped basement, stretching his arms, making various strange postures, and constantly adjusting his breath according to several specific sets of breathing frequencies.

Originally, during this process, it was necessary to take secret medicine in advance and apply special ointment on the chest, abdomen and limbs, but Gilan did not have any and could only "do it".

Not long after, he began to feel dizzy and had difficulty breathing.

There seemed to be something stuck in his throat, and there was a stabbing pain like needles in his chest, lower abdomen, both sides of his lower back, as well as his upper arms and ankles.

‘Without the most critical secret medicine, if you continue practicing like this, not only will you not be able to succeed, but you will be injured or even disabled. ’ Jilan understood clearly in his heart, but he still gritted his teeth and continued practicing.

Soon, a heartbreaking pain shot up from the inside out. Jilan couldn't breathe, her eyesight went dark, she lost all her strength on the spot and fell backwards.

Bang!

He fell heavily to the ground, his whole body numb and unable to move.

Gilan's face was twisted in pain and became ferocious, but his eyes were still bright.

'gorgeous! ’

He shouted inwardly.

In the field of vision directly facing Venus, the colorful number "10" suddenly started to move - it continued to decrease and jump until it returned to the original "0"!

Thump!

My heart beat violently!

Jilan's vision gradually returned to normal, and his paralyzed limbs also regained consciousness. The tingling pain in various parts of his body disappeared, replaced by a seemingly endless energy.

He exhaled and slowly got up from the ground.

But the next second, Ji Lan was shocked to find that tears were coming out of his nose uncontrollably, and his mouth was constantly secreting saliva as if he had eaten sour plums.

Soon, her throat began to itch, until her whole body began to itch, as if there were countless ants crawling under the skin. Gilan was tortured by this sudden itching, and she bent over and kept shaking.

It took about a minute for the severe itching to subside.

Jilan's face was flushed, veins were exposed, and he was breathing heavily.

He straightened up and wiped the secretions from his mouth and nose, feeling that he had become stronger. Many fighting skills appeared in my mind out of thin air, as if I had practiced them for many years and was quite proficient.

'It seems that I have initially mastered the "White Cross Body Training Technique" and entered the first stage called "Slime"! ’

Ji Lan raised his hands and clenched his fists, feeling very good.

'The mysterious power "Bailan" I possess is so amazing that it can skip the necessary assistance of secret medicine and directly allow me to practice secret skills! ’

He picked up the double-barreled shotgun on the workbench with one hand. The originally heavy firearm now felt as light as nothing.

Ji Lan couldn't bear the excitement in her heart and punched him.

There was a muffled thud, the solid wood workbench was suddenly smashed into cracks, and sawdust flew everywhere.
