Chapitre 13: Five Animal Hands (2)

Éditeur: Henyee Translations

"However, the human body is extremely fragile. Squeezing the body is essentially exceeding the burden of the body and is extremely dangerous. Martial arts training is not child's play, especially for an ordinary person who has never come into contact with martial arts. His body can't bear the circulation of blood energy and force at all. If he practices recklessly, his bones and tendons will be messed up at best, and he will die from paralysis at worst."

Cold sweat broke out on Lin Yan's forehead. Fortunately, he had yet to find any martial arts manuals.

Zang Wei seemed to have thought of something as a look of emotion appeared on his face. "For example, some aristocratic families and the proud sons of wealthy families. From the moment they were born, they bathed in precious medicine and nourished their blood energy, causing their potential to accumulate far beyond that of ordinary people. They also created an extremely strong foundation of muscles and bones. They are natural martial arts geniuses.

"However, you clearly aren't. Therefore, you can only use postnatal training to adapt to the circulation of blood energy step by step.

"This is the function of the Five Animal Hands. It doesn't have much lethality and is just a body nourishing technique. However, it can stimulate the blood energy in your body and nourish your meridians.

"If you cultivate this technique well, your muscles and bones will be strong enough. The more solid your martial arts foundation is, the more high-rise buildings will rise from the ground. Only with a deep foundation can you look up to a higher realm."

Yu Qian raised her hand again. "Eldest Senior Brother, if I practice the Five Animal Hands well, will I be comparable to the talents of the aristocratic and wealthy families you mentioned?"

Her eyes were filled with anticipation.

A trace of loneliness flashed past Zang Wei's eyes. "Hehe, don't bite off more than you can chew. Let's talk about it after you've mastered it!"

He pointed at Wei Yan, who immediately walked forward.

"I only have one arm, so it's not easy for me to demonstrate. Next, I'll let Wei Yan demonstrate. I'll explain, so you have to listen carefully!"

Lin Yan perked up. It's here!

"The Five Animal Hands is based on the Golden Tiger, White Deer, Ghost Ape, Mountain Bear, and Red Crane, imitating the actions of the five animals. Wei Yan, you demonstrate the Tiger Form one by one!"

Wei Yan's four limbs were on the ground, his hands were like tiger claws, the web between his thumb and index finger was round, and his back was arched like he was standing upright. Then, his two hands were raised from the side of his body. His body was bent forward, and he suddenly jumped. His two hands pressed down on the ground, and he landed on all fours again, in the posture of a tiger pouncing.

Except…

Lin Yan looked at his actions and felt that it didn't look like a tiger pounce, but more like… a cat pounce?

There were a total of three movements in the Tiger Form—Tiger Steps, Tiger Pounce, and Tiger Turning. However, Wei Yan's demonstration always gave Lin Yan the feeling of a cat walking, a cat pouncing on a mouse, and an old cat turning its head?

However, after Zang Wei had seen it, he nodded his head in satisfaction. "Not bad, it's not bad at all. The tiger pounce focuses on using all the strength in your body. A tiger roars in the forest. When it moves, it must have a spirit. Its movements must be wide open…"

Zang Wei used Wei Yan's body as a template and explained the key points one by one. Lin Yan and Zang Wei's eyes lit up as they listened and benefited greatly.

"Next, it's deer form."

Then, there was a series of action demonstrations. Lin Yan was mesmerized by them.

Different from the Five Animal Frolics in his previous life, the Five Animal Hands did not have many movements. There were three movements in each form, but each movement contained more than ten key points. Muscle movement, sequencing, and breathing coordination could not be missed.

Fortunately, he did not buy any secret manuals randomly. If there was no one to teach him such a complicated training method, even if he had the secret manual, it was impossible for him to learn it.

Lin Yan's memory was considered good, but after Zang Wei's explanation, he could only remember 80%.

The only strange thing was that Wei Yan's demonstration was indescribably strange.

The tiger was shaped like a cat, the deer was shaped like a horse, the ape was shaped like a human, the bear was shaped like a dog, and the crane was shaped like a chicken. All in all, the five forms did not look like it.

However, Zang Wei said that Wei Yan's demonstration was not bad. Lin Yan did not know martial arts, so he naturally did not dare to ask questions.

"Alright, the two of you can demonstrate! Wei Yan, you can go now. Call Le Ping over!"

Wei Yan's face fell, but he did not dare to disobey his Eldest Senior Brother and could only retreat.

Not long after, an ordinary-looking and tall woman walked over with a wooden face.

"Le Ping, help Yu Qian guide her movements."

"Yes, Eldest Senior Brother."

Zang Wei walked to Lin Yan's side and said calmly, "You can begin!"

Lin Yan was nervous. He started to assume a stance according to his memories.

Zang Wei grabbed Lin Yan's arm and pressed down. "Your hand is too high. Lower it!"

His hand was like steel as he controlled Lin Yan's arm, making him unable to resist.

Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat as he focused on comprehending.

"Keep your back straight. It's soft and has no strength!"

"Tiger Claw, Tiger Claw, this is a chicken claw!"

"Your Monkey Fist is a little flexible. Have you seen a monkey before?"

"…"

Following that, Lin Yan adjusted his posture bit by bit under Zang Wei's stern correction.

Needless to say, when the posture was completely correct, Lin Yan felt a slight heat emitting from his body, as if someone was holding a hot towel to cover his body.

This was clearly the uniqueness of this world's martial arts.

Two hours later, Lin Yan's face was flushed red and he was covered in sweat. He felt an uncontrollable emptiness all over his body.

Yu Qian, who was at the side, was the same. Her face was red as she bit her lip.

Many parts of her body were drenched in sweat. Her initially developed figure outlined her exquisite curves, attracting everyone's attention. Fortunately, she had worn a liner inside. Otherwise, she would have found a hole to hide in on the spot.

"Alright, although Five Animal Hands won't harm your body and there's no limit to the number of times you can practice it, it's your first time practicing it. Your blood energy will definitely be severely exhausted and your body will feel empty. Remember to eat more meat when you go back to replenish your blood energy. You can continue practicing tomorrow!"

"Thank you for your teachings, Eldest Senior Brother."

Zang Wei nodded. "Your memory is not bad. You should be able to learn how to move within four to five days. However, you can only observe the movements of the animals when you have the time. Tiger, deer, bear, crane, and ape. Naturally, you have never seen them before, and neither have I. However, cats are like tigers, horses are like deer, dogs are like bears, chickens are like cranes, and humans are like apes. The effect will be the same if you observe the movements of the former."

Lin Yan was enlightened. No wonder Wei Yan's movements were strange.

This was the ancient world. There were few people in the wilderness and dangers were everywhere. How could ordinary people see the true appearance of these precious birds and ferocious beasts?

Even in his previous life, not everyone had seen these five creatures with their own eyes.

In the end, Zang Wei glanced at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "Let me remind you again. Blood energy is the essence of martial arts. It must be replenished. Moreover, for people like you who have just started practicing martial arts, meat can't immediately transform into blood energy. After eating meat, you have to wait at least four to six hours for your blood energy to be fully replenished before you can practice a second time.

"Therefore, if allowed, it's best for you to have a meal of meat at noon and at night. If you practice martial arts twice a day, the effect will be the best."

Lin Yan and Yu Qian thanked him respectfully. "Thank you for your reminder, Eldest Senior Brother!"

"That's it!"

With that, Zang Wei turned around and left.


Chapitre 14: Resignation

Éditeur: Henyee Translations

After coming back from the dining room, Lin Yan felt his entire body go limp. Every inch of his body seemed to be complaining about hunger.

Eldest Senior Brother said that this was a normal phenomenon of the first consumption of blood energy. As long as he replenished his blood energy in time and rested more, he would be fine.

Lin Yan opened the lunch box. There was still a simple meal inside.

After finishing the simple meal, he could feel that his stomach was full, but the emptiness in his body was still there.

Indeed, only meat could transform into blood energy.

Lin Yan took out the Emerald Wind Powder and took a small sip.

The stench was pungent, like rotten salted fish. He did not know how this poison could make people eat it.

As soon as it entered his stomach, Lin Yan felt a ball of fire burning from his stomach. Then, it surged to every part of his body. All the muscles in his body seemed to have encountered rain after a long drought as they greedily absorbed this heat.

The feeling of emptiness quickly receded, replaced by the satisfaction of being full. As the heat slowly replenished, there was no longer any sense of emptiness in his body.

"This means that my blood energy has completely recovered? Eldest Senior Brother said that even if a beginner eats meat, they will need four to six hours to recover their blood energy. I reckon that even those who are proficient in martial arts will need a long time to recover their blood energy with meat. However, after swallowing the poison, I actually recovered my blood energy completely in almost an instant…"

Lin Yan clenched his fists tightly and felt that his strength seemed to have increased.

He could not help but feel excited. Didn't this mean that he could practice martial arts repeatedly?

If there was enough poison, it would not be a problem for him to practice non-stop. The efficiency would be at least several times higher than others!

"I didn't expect that just the Poison Transformation would have such a wonderful effect. If I can sublimate the Five Animal Hands Technique into a special effect, what special ability will it have?"

Lin Yan focused slightly as the basic information appeared on the Golden Bodhi Scripture in his mind.

Basic information:

Skills: Devour (100%), Five Animal Hands (5%)

When he was practicing martial arts just now, the Five Animal Hands Technique had already been recorded as a skill by the Golden Bodhi Scripture. Moreover, its proficiency increased from 1% to 5%.

Based on this time, four hours and 5%, so it would only take 40 hours to increase it to 100%?

Of course, the higher the proficiency, the harder it would be to increase.

However, this already filled Lin Yan with hope for the future.

After walking around and digesting the food in his stomach, Lin Yan turned around and left.

He had yet to resign from his accounting job at the rice shop. There were still some miscellaneous items to move from home, so he still had to be busy this afternoon.

He walked out of Dragon Gate Pavilion and rushed towards Chundu District.

Along the way, Lin Yan clearly sensed that he seemed to have seen more beggars.

When he passed by the Changqiu District, Lin Yan saw a thin-faced woman in a plain robe holding a baby. She was kneeling on the ground and selling her body to bury her father.

He leaned over to take a look at the words and realized that the woman's husband had been captured and taken to Tiger Camp to be a soldier. Her family's livelihood had been cut off, and her father had died of illness. She had no choice but to sell herself to bury his father.

Changqiu District was a middle-circle district. He did not expect such a thing to happen.

Lin Yan was silent.

He thought that if he was also captured by the Tiger Camp, Xiaozhi would be alone and would probably be in a worse state than this woman.

Just as he was about to leave, someone suddenly shouted, "Tiger Camp is here! Tiger Camp is here to capture people again!"

Everyone's expressions changed as they fled in all directions.

Lin Yan's expression also changed drastically. In his panic, he followed the two passersby into an alley.

After running a few steps, two burly men in leather armor suddenly blocked the intersection.

Lin Yan's pupils constricted.

Looking back, there was actually a leather-armored soldier behind them. They were blocked in the middle of the road!

"Where are you going?"

A bearded soldier blocked them with a faint smile.

Lin Yan clenched his fists slightly. Of the two passersby beside him, one was dressed rather luxuriously. He stood up and said with a trembling voice, "I'm the young master of the Liu family from Changqiu District. My name is Liu Nan. How dare you stop me?"

"The Liu family of Changqiu District?" The bearded man turned to look at the soldier. "I remember that the young master of the Liu family is called Liu Cheng, right?"

"That's my brother!"

"Oh, if you're not the eldest son, then it's fine!"

The two of them pressed forward again.

Upon hearing this, Liu Nan's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.

Lin Yan clenched his fists tightly. If he was taken away, Xiaozhi would be finished!

A cold light shot out of his eyes. Just as he was about to resist, he saw the bearded man's gaze shift to him. The man was slightly surprised. "Eh? You're from Dragon Gate Pavilion?"

Lin Yan was wearing the Dragon Gate Pavilion's martial arts combat suit.

"That's right!" Lin Yan hurriedly took out a wooden waist token with the word 'Dragon' engraved on it.

"I didn't recognize you. Dragon Gate Pavilion is our brother camp. I won't arrest you. Please leave!"

Lin Yan was overjoyed. "Thank you, Sir!"

Immediately, he crouched down and jumped out from beside him, quickly leaving.

"Brother, save me! Take me away too! Brother…"

Lin Yan turned a deaf ear and didn't even look back. Soon, he turned left and right. When there was no one else around, he leaned against the wall and heaved a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, he had worn a martial arts outfit today. Otherwise, if he was captured by the Tiger Camp, regardless of whether he was dead or alive, Xiaozhi, a three-year-old girl, would definitely be finished!

This world, this world…

After a long while, when his breathing slowly calmed down, he continued to follow the road and rushed to Chundu District.

After this incident on the way, he only wanted to quickly settle everything and return to Dragon Gate Pavilion.

After rushing over, he finally arrived at the Fugui Rice Shop. As soon as he entered, he bumped into Wu San, who had just returned from carrying the goods.

"Lin Yan, where did you go? Old Chen was so angry this morning!"

When Wu San saw Lin Yan, he quickly came over.

"I went to run some errands."

"What's more important than work… Eh, you've changed into new clothes? These clothes look good."

Lin Yan asked, "Old Chen is very angry? Because I'm not around?"

"Let me tell you, there's really big trouble this time. In the morning, the big boss came for inspection! When he found that you weren't around and heard that you took two days off, he scolded Old Chen on the spot! You have to be careful later. This time, I'm afraid it won't be just deducting some salary!"

Lin Yan nodded. "I'm fine. Is Old Chen around?"

"He went out to eat. He'll probably be back soon."

Lin Yan entered the accounts room and sat down to wait.

As he waited, there was a sudden commotion at the door.

Lin Yan walked out of the store and saw a group of people surrounding the rice shop. Before he could see what was going on, he heard two miserable cries.

"Father! Father, you died so tragically!"

"Son, my poor son! Your father is dead, and only the two of us are left. How can we live!"

"Mother, Mother! I miss Father so much!"

"Son…"

A woman and a boy, one big and the other small. The female voice sounded familiar.

At this moment, Wu San came over from the side and gloated. "Hehe, do you know who the two people outside are?"

"Who are they?"

"Geng Bing's wife and child!"

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows.

Wu San clicked his tongue and said, "I heard that Geng Bing is dead! He died outside. It seems that he provoked some big shot and was beaten to death by him!"

"And?"

"You're not surprised?"

"I'm surprised."

"Then there's his wife. She's blaming it on our rice shop. Last night, she carried Geng Bing's corpse to the door and wailed that the rice shop killed Geng Bing and asked for a pension. Hehe, Geng Bing didn't die to guard the rice shop. What right does she have to ask for a pension?"

Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat. "But I didn't see a corpse when I came over today."

"Because the big boss was afraid that they would affect the reputation of the rice shop, he gave them a little and persuaded them to go back. I didn't expect them to come again today."

Lin Yan shook his head. "Looks like they extorted him. The big boss is not an ordinary person. I'm afraid they won't have a good ending for doing this."

Wu San glanced outside and said in a low voice, "Let's not talk about them. Old Chen is back. You should pray for yourself first."

With that, he turned around and retreated to the side. There was worry in his eyes, but he also had the intention to watch the show.

Lin Yan followed his gaze and saw Old Chen walking straight towards him with a gloomy expression.

"Lin Yan! Where the f*ck did you go!"

Ignoring everyone, Old Chen fired directly. His voice was even louder than the cries of mother and son outside, attracting the attention of some people at the door.

"Uncle Chen, I'm here today to…"

"What are you thinking? I think you're trying to rebel! Do you think you're a master who can come and go as you please? You're a worker. Do you know what work is?!"

"I—"

"You're absent from work! This matter won't be over so easily. Let me tell you, you have to sign the contract today! Otherwise, don't even think about leaving this door!"

Lin Yan frowned, and his eyes turned cold. "Why should I sign a contract? What does it have to do with whether I leave this door or not?"

Old Chen was so angry that he laughed. "How dare you talk to me like that? Do you know how much damage you've caused to the rice shop? You can't even pay it back even if you sell yourself! It's too easy for you to only sign a contract with you!"

"I'm just a small bookkeeper. Firstly, I don't touch money. Secondly, I don't touch rice. How can I cause losses? On the other hand, Uncle Chen, I've seen so many of your accounts. There are many things that I don't understand…"

Old Chen's expression suddenly changed. As an accountant, it was normal for him to play tricks on the accounts.

He knew that Lin Yan's foundation in math was unfathomable. Although he thought that his accounting was flawless, Lin Yan might be able to tell.

Wu San stood at the side and chimed in, "Lin Yan, don't make Uncle Chen angry. If you sign the contract, you can even increase your salary. It's killing two birds with one stone!"

Old Chen was so angry that his blood pressure was rising. "How dare you accuse me? Today, I'll teach you a lesson according to the rules of the rice shop! You guys catch him…"

"Wait! I didn't sign a contract. The rules of the rice shop allow you to manage the servants, but they're useless to me. I'm here today to tell you that I'm here to quit my job!"

"Quit!" Wu San was also shocked. "Lin Yan, don't be rash. If you quit, what will you and your sister eat?!"

He stepped forward to grab Lin Yan, but Lin Yan was already staring at the restless laborers and started to move towards the door.

"Quit your job? What kind of place do you think the Fugui Rice Shop is? Do you think I can do whatever I want and quit whenever I want? The few of you, go up and catch him!"

Lin Yan secretly cursed his bad luck. He didn't expect to encounter such a thing when he resigned.

Seeing that a few laborers were moving towards him and one of them was blocking his way out, Lin Yan no longer hesitated. He suddenly darted out and shouted, "Get out of the way!"

He swung his fist at the laborer who was blocking his way.

He had killed two people before. With this shout, he inadvertently shouted out the brutality he had when he was killing someone. The laborer was shocked and timidly stretched out his hands to block. He was hammered twice by Lin Yan and retreated in pain. Lin Yan took the opportunity to squeeze out of the crowd at the door.

The other laborers' reaction was even slower. It wasn't until Lin Yan rushed out of the crowd that they reacted and escorted Old Chen out the door.
