There's a Madman Sharpening His Knife at Night

Chapter 204 Lead and Mercury as Pills

As the saying goes, it is easier said than done. Even though Lu Hu already knew the method of cultivating energy, it was absolutely impossible to practice it without spending a lot of hard work.

With yesterday's lesson learned, today Lu Hu was extremely careful when entering the mysterious realm of the union of God and will. After rolling the stone on his body five times, he had to exit to confirm his status.

After two or three times, Lu Hu also touched the boundary point of his spirit. At this time, he used healing powers to restore his spirit. When his spirit was full again, he continued to practice.

During lunch, he went outside and sat directly at a small stall selling mutton soup cakes diagonally opposite the martial arts hall.

The owner of this stall is an old man with a gray beard. He wears a dirty cloth apron with no visible color around his waist. He has four small tables set up. Because the location is good and the martial arts practitioners eat a lot, the business is still very good.

Not long after Lu Hu sat down, a steaming bowl of mutton soup was served. The soup was clear and tender, with green chopped green onions and some gray-yellow pepper noodles sprinkled on top. The aroma was fragrant. There was a small bamboo basket next to it. Crispy and browned pancakes.

Lu Hu first picked up the bowl, took a sip of the decoction, and then took a few pieces of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth.

The combination of chopped green onion and pepper just removes the greasiness and fishy smell of the mutton, making the mutton soup extremely delicious. The mutton is cooked at a sufficient heat, and it falls apart when chewed. The mutton fiber is clearly defined, and the soup from this street stall is delicious. One bite was not inferior to Songhelou in any way, and Lu Hu's eyes lit up after eating it.

"Cut more mutton!"

"Sir, I have some roasted mutton. Can I serve you a plate?"

"Okay, go ahead!"

Lu Hu grabbed a piece of hot sesame seed cake with one hand and held chopsticks with the other. He took a bite of the salty sesame seed pancake and then got a mouthful of hot soup. It was very comfortable to eat.

Just when Lu Hu was enjoying his meal, he heard the sound of a kitchen knife chopping on the chopping board and a small explosion of fire in the furnace cavity.

The rice pot was steaming, and the chopped green onions were fried into the oil, giving off a fragrant cooking smell. The chopped green onions were rolling in the oil, gradually turning yellow. Then the mutton, which had been slightly dried and cut into cucumber strips, was taken out of the pot and made a sizzling sound. Just fry it in the oil pan.

Fry until the outside is brown, then put it into a large pot and simmer until it turns brown. This kind of mutton is charred on the outside, tender on the inside, and not greasy.

After the roasted mutton was served, Lu Hu ate even more deliciously. He ate five pieces of sesame cakes, drank two bowls of mutton soup, and after eating three large plates of stewed mutton, a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.

He straightened his legs, exhaled a breath of white air, reached out to wipe the sweat off his forehead, and stood up to pay.

The little old man selling mutton had seen something edible before, but this was the first time he could eat something like Lu Hu. With so much food, if others were to forcefully stuff it in, their stomachs would probably explode. But after Lu Hu finished eating, Not only did he look calm, but he also showed that he could still eat but didn't need it, which really opened the old man's eyes.

After Lu Hu finished eating, he went straight back to the training ground. He rented it for the whole day today.

After returning home, he did not continue practicing. Instead, he lay down on a large bluestone at the edge of the yard, practiced Crouching Tiger Stance, closed his eyes and rested his mind.

When Lu Hu stood up again half an hour later, his physical strength and spirit were back to their peak state.

This would make his practice more efficient, and Lu Hu would devote himself to practice again.

In this way, Lu Hu practiced Hua Qi during the day and Zhen Qi at night.

This life lasted for seven days.

Seven days later, the weather was clear, the wind was gentle, a golden sun was embedded in the pure blue sky, a white cloud was floating in the clear sky like a solitary sail on the blue sea, and the bright sunshine was like water, flowing brilliantly like a musical note.

Lu Hu, who was standing at the practice ground at this time, was no longer holding the big stone mill before, but the big shot put he had ordered from the blacksmith shop.

Although the weight of the stone roller is large, it is too easy to control because it is cylindrical and has sharp edges. With Lu Hu's increasingly sophisticated micro-control of the skin, it can no longer meet his needs for practicing.

After much thought, Lu Hu ordered the shot put four days ago.

Early this morning, he took the shot put from the blacksmith shop. In order not to attract attention, he trapped it on a cart with an iron chain, covered it with a gray cloth, and pushed it all the way to the training ground.

The lead ball was about half a meter in diameter and was not solid. At Lu Hu's request, mercury was poured into it.

Although the size is not as large as the stone mill, the weight is still greater.

At this time, Lu Hu hugged both sides of the big shot put with both arms. He turned his waist, strengthened his arms, and bang! The whole big ball was spinning in front of his chest.

The mercury sealed inside made a heavy sound like the sound of ocean waves after rapid rotation.

As Lu Hu exerted his energy, the rotation speed of the shot put gradually increased, and then he rotated his arm. As soon as he exerted his energy, the whole big ball of lead and mercury jumped up lightly.

When it fell, Lu Hujin switched to his shoulder, bumped the ball with his shoulder, and then bumped the ball into the air.

Then, he repeatedly switched his strength to hit the ball, either with his hands, feet, shoulders, head, back, hips, waist, elbows, or knees.

Lead and mercury were originally necessary materials for ancient Taoist priests to make alchemy. Mercury is very heavy, but it is fluid, which is very unique.

The reason why Lu Hu wanted to pour mercury into it was not only to control the weight, but also to learn how to generate force in the shot put.

For example, when Lu Hu quickly moved the shot put to the left, the mercury in it surged to the right.

After his arm withdraws its force, the shot put will immediately send out a powerful force to the right.

The shot put itself cannot produce force, but when it is subjected to external force, it will produce an opposite force. After this force is integrated into the body, it will immediately produce a counter-shock force after someone punches it.

The relationship between "the skin must be attacked" and "the muscles and bones must be loosened" is an oppositional relationship, which is the way of change of yin and yang.

And this lead ball is hard on the outside but soft on the inside, just like this saying. Ancient Taoist priests used lead and mercury to make elixirs to obtain the yin and yang of this physical nature.

Taoists melt lead and mercury to make elixirs, and Lu Hu borrowed the Taoist artistic conception and cast this big ball of lead and mercury to practice boxing to achieve his energy!

What he was thinking was that now he had to practice to be like this mercury-coated lead, loose on the inside and tight on the outside, open and close freely, the whole body's force can be converted into energy, and the force of counter-shock can be achieved!

The timely arrival of the big ball of lead and mercury made Lu Hu's strength cultivation, which had begun to stagnate, begin to improve again.

In this way, Lu Hu spent another three days on this big ball of lead and mercury.

On the third day, it was a rainy day. Continuous cold rain fell from the sky one after another, and the entire Anyang City was covered with a layer of gray.

Lu Hu Lei couldn't move, so he practiced in the martial arts training ground at regular intervals.

The big ball of lead and mercury, which was originally smooth and difficult to exert force, became even more slippery after being soaked by the rain.

But Lu Hu's control of the big ball was not weakened by this.

He is now using the force of the mercury in the shot put to control it. It is like being sucked into Lu Hu's body when he hits the ball. It rolls faster and faster, and the stirring sound of the mercury inside becomes louder and louder.

The cold rain gradually became heavier, and the dark clouds in the sky became thicker and thicker.

"boom!"

A muffled thunder exploded from the black clouds.

"Roar!"

Lu Hu was aroused by the thunder, and suddenly let out a tiger-leopard thunder sound. The same thunder exploded from his chest, and a big ball of lead and mercury suddenly flew up from Lu Hu's chest!

Immediately, Lu Hu felt as if his body was being electrified. Wherever the current passed, he felt that the appearance of his body gradually appeared in his mind. Every inch of his skin was extremely clear and under his control.

"boom!"

The big ball hit the ground with a loud bang.

Transform your energy and it’s done!
