Finding Joy In The Bitter And Going To A Distant Place

The breathing technique that Grandpa Mu left behind seemed to be especially sensitive to the energy in Cheng Ling's body.

Cheng Ling closed her eyes and suddenly realized that the thin layer between her and the Yin and Yang Qi seemed to have been removed.

For the first time, she touched the two Qi so clearly, and it was as if she could really see them with her "naked eye"!

The two Qi ran side by side, passing through the meridians and bone marrow. Along the way, the moonlight scattered a faint silver glow, and the sun's energy left a faint warmth. This Yin and Yang nourished her internal organs and meridians, causing her body to change without her knowing.

Cheng Ling knew that these changes were actually slow. If she really wanted to see the obvious effect, she still needed to persist for a long time.

But wasn't it a good thing that perseverance would lead to progress?

She observed the energy in her body and saw that after it had circulated through the bones and meridians, it had automatically returned to her dantian.

At this time, there was actually a slight loss of energy. Strengthening the body required energy, which was not a problem.

She could increase her energy by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. Eating the five grains and meat could also increase her energy. This kind of absorption and consumption was basically an intuitive way of improving her body's blood circulation.

Putting aside the fact that she could directly absorb the essence of the sun and moon and could see the subtle changes in the energy in her body, her microcirculation was an innate ability of every living being.

Cheng Ling thought, "Is this a special ability? No, perhaps I can see it as a deep level of genetic liberation."

This was the after-effect of having received a scientific education. No matter what problem it was, they always wanted to use a scientific way of thinking to interpret it. For someone like Cheng Ling, even if she had been practicing traditional martial arts since she was young, she couldn't control this kind of thinking.

She had also specially divided the energy in her dantian into equal quantities.

For example, if she fully absorbed the moonlight energy once, she would be able to harvest about six times. Then, the total moonlight energy she had now was 6.2.

The extra 0.2 was formed from the food she absorbed.

The energy from the sun was slightly lesser because there had been no sun for the past two days. She had used up a bit of energy when she was dealing with little Li earlier, so she only had 5.2 points of energy left.

The energy from the food would automatically separate, with half of it flowing into the moonlight energy and the other half flowing into the solar energy. It was very balanced, and it could be said that the bowl of water was very flat.

There were two main things Cheng Ling needed to train.

One was to control energy and release it.

Just like that time, she had only thrown a branch from a distance, and it had easily killed the ferocious alpha wolf.

The moonlight energy attached to the branch was like a divine artifact.

Second, he had to train more to strengthen his body.

If her physical body could be strengthened and her dantian could be expanded, not only would her basic combat strength be greatly increased, but the amount of energy that could be stored in her dantian would also be more.

More energy could help her build up her body faster, and it would also allow her to gather materials and process medicinal herbs more freely, without having to worry about insufficient energy.

This was a virtuous cycle.

Cheng Ling sat down and meditated. For a moment, her thoughts were clear, as if she had entered a wonderful realm.

The next morning, Shi hong was the first to wake up and exclaimed, "Brother Cheng, what are you doing?"

The sky was already bright, and the fire had already gone out. Cheng Ling was still sitting in the same place.

But Cheng Ling was surrounded by a pile of wild animals!

There were about three or four snakes that had their seven-inch ends snapped. There were also five roe deers that didn't seem to have any wounds on the outside but seemed to be dead.

Shi Hong swallowed his saliva, feeling a little dazed.

Cheng Ling said, "This little thing is used to staying in the day and coming out at night. It rarely comes to strangers. It just happened to come over at night and give us food. "

Shi Hong was dumbfounded for a moment after hearing how she said it so casually. He then cupped his hands at Cheng Ling and sighed. "Brother Cheng is extraordinary."

He only said these four words and didn't know how to describe the rest.

Although there were only a few snakes and roe deers, there didn't seem to be any particularly fierce animals. But one had to know that Cheng Ling had killed these wild animals in the middle of the night without making any noise.

Not revealing any movements and not waking up the few people who were already in light sleep, this was a skill!

Cheng Ling smiled faintly and looked down at her own hand. She actually felt that it was quite magical.

Her strength had clearly increased significantly compared to before!

Cheng Ling didn't think it was entirely the result of cultivating the yin and yang qi through the night. The strengthening of the body by Yin and Yang Qi was a long-term process, and the effect would not be so fast.

This was mainly due to the previous "strength +1".

This special attribute point had increased Cheng Ling's strength by 20 to 30 percent.

This improvement was all-rounded. After her strength increased, along with her original martial arts techniques, Cheng Ling's overall combat quality didn't just increase by one.

At 7:35 am, the sun hadn't come out yet, and the sky was still gloomy. Cheng Ling and the others finally led their horses, handcarts, and luggage out of the mountains.

Cheng Ling had already secretly looked at the King Linhai's military map that she had collected from Kang Ping, so she naturally had a clearer plan for the route.

"Let's not go any further," she said. "After traveling ten miles east, we'll head north."

No one had any objections and listened to her words.

After going down the mountain, the carriage could finally sit up. Cheng Ernii was the most delighted. She excitedly climbed onto one of the carriages and made a driving gesture, shouting, "Go!"

The horse didn't move, and Third Aunt Mu glared at her, "Do you know how to drive? You're going! Be careful that this horse will lead you into the ditch!"

Of course, Cheng Ernii didn't know how to drive a carriage. She had never even touched a horse's hair in her life, so how could she know how to drive a carriage?

Cheng Ling didn't know how to drive a carriage. She knew how to ride a horse, but she had never driven a carriage before.

However, Third Aunt Mu had driven an ox-cart before. She said, "It's more or less the same, we have to keep this animal in control and not let it lose its temper."

In the end, Hong Guangyi was in charge of driving one of the two carriages, while Mu Sanniang was in charge of the other.

Shi Hong and the two children sat in Hong Guangyi's carriage. as for Mu Sanniang, Da Ni, Er Ni, and Cheng Ling sat together.

Although the carriage did not have a roof, there were guardrails one and a half feet high on all three sides. In the driver's seat in front, Third Aunt Mu sat upright, flicking her whip and shouting, "Go!"

The horse moved and Cheng Ernii cheered, "That's great!" The carriage jolted, and she laughed again. She was actually much more lively than the two children, Hong Xiaolang and Lady Yun.

Cheng Ling felt the carriage shake and her waist hurt from the back. The sky was dark and the road ahead was always worrying, but to have such laughter on the road, the whole world seemed to have become brighter.

Laugh, why can't you laugh?

Finding joy in suffering was also a kind of ability!
