Chapter Twelve: The Method of Training

  Zhao Long counted it, a total of 6,900 yuan, which is also a considerable amount for these moonlight families. Moreover, looking at this brand new money, Zhao Long's first impression was that he had withdrawn it from the bank. But thinking about Fatso's personality, he was basically a moonlight family. Suddenly, Zhao Long remembered that when he was drunk and talked about his job, he said that his basic salary was now over 3,000 but less than 4,000 per month.

  Could it be that Fatty had borrowed money in advance and spent it all? It was quite possible. Zhao Long thought for a moment before calling Fatty on the phone.

  "Ah...... boss, what's up?" came the voice of Fatso yawning from the other end, accompanied by deafening music and the cacophony of countless people talking, clearly indicating that Fatso was in a karaoke bar or something similar.

  "Fatty, are you planning on going on a hunger strike?"

  "Haha……" Fatso heard Zhao Long's words and immediately knew that the boss had already discovered the money, laughing: "I'm fine, I'm doing business every day now and eating and drinking without worry. Moreover, I can now get a commission, Boss, if you don't have enough money, just tell me, I'll get some more for you."

  "You and I don't understand each other, usually eating a snack is enough for someone else's daily food expenses. Okay, I won't say more to you, my side of the money has been gathered, it's just that I've grasped a small trick to win some money, although it can't be used often, but this time every household winning a little will add up. I'll transfer the money to you tomorrow, and you can take a look then."

  Regardless of whether Fatty was telling the truth or not, Zhao Long's personality was that he didn't want his friends and family to suffer losses. If it wasn't for this reason, he wouldn't have given so much money to his family, nor would he have taken on the burden of his two sisters' tuition fees, and he wouldn't be so tired all the time.

  "Damn, really? Boss..." Fatso was quite surprised and a little excited, but someone seemed to be calling him, so he had to hurry up and hang up the phone.

  Zhao Long smiled and slightly shook his head, putting the money back under the pillow. He felt very comfortable in his heart. However, at this point, he didn't feel sleepy at all. If it were before, he would definitely choose to get up and go online, but now Zhao Long's first thought was to contact Lao Shi.

  "You said before that I should now practice on my own, and first cultivate my strength to over 2,000 jin, reach the level of a martial artist before practicing that 'Nine Turns Five Elements Body Refining Technique'. But how should I train now? Or will you teach me some other secret techniques and methods?" Zhao Long has now completely entered an unfamiliar domain, so he is using the spirit he had when learning in school, trying his best to dig out what he needs from Lao Shi.

  "You haven't even learned to walk, yet you're trying to learn how to run. You don't even have a good foundation, what's the point of learning some secret technique? It's like teaching a three-year-old how to use a thousand-pound hammer - can they even handle it? If you solidify your foundation, just like your last two moves, as long as your power and speed increase, basic movements will be able to solve many problems. Even those so-called high-level masters, if their reaction time is slower than yours and their strength is weaker, a single punch from them would feel like a mosquito bite to you, while one punch from you could kill them instantly. What's the use of their kung fu skills in front of a master? Before a master, pure power can decide everything."

  "As for the training method, it's even simpler now. You haven't even laid a solid foundation yet, and your body has already undergone modification and adjustment. It's like an athlete, once their physical quality reaches a certain level, even if they take a break for a while and their performance isn't great, as long as they train a bit, they can recover to normal. You're the same now. That is to say, you just need to increase your exercise intensity, let your body adapt, and once it reaches its peak and enters the realm of martial arts, we'll talk about other things." Lao Shi was still very clear about Zhao Long's situation, and a few words had already made everything clear.

  Zhao Long listened intently, and when Lao Shi finished speaking, he immediately raised some ideas. For example, is running good or weightlifting or other training methods good? Are these modern training methods suitable? Or how to control one's strength, how to burst out with power, and so on. Although sometimes the questions he asked also involved ways to enhance combat capabilities, Lao Shi still answered seriously.

  The two of them chatted straight through to after three in the morning, and it wasn't until nearly four that Zhao Long started to feel a bit sleepy, and he fell into a deep sleep. He woke up again at six o'clock, and although he had only slept for a little over two hours, Zhao Long felt incredibly refreshed.

  Zhao Long got online for a while, and there were many messages from people over the past few days, all of which he replied to one by one. The recent events had already changed Zhao Long's life trajectory. Although he had resigned from his job, Zhao Long didn't feel any despair. On the contrary, he felt a sense of spiritual excitement, because he was now more looking forward to what he could learn after reaching the realm of a martial master.

  After replying to the message, I went back up and took a look around, thought for a bit, and before going offline, posted another one: "Recently started exercising, opening a door to a mysterious realm."

  " Splash... splash..." At this time, the sound of washing clothes came from the courtyard. Just by listening to the sound, it was clear that it was Aunt Li.

  "You're up so early, aren't you going to let people sleep? The water price has gone up several times already, you guys are really good, you calculated us once and signed that broken contract, now you're using water recklessly." Just then, a sharp and piercing voice came from upstairs, it was Yao Meili shouting.

  Zhao Long was brushing his teeth and washing his face when he heard Yao Mei Li speak up, and couldn't help but almost burst out laughing. This Yao Mei Li really had nothing better to do, making trouble for herself, and indeed, the sound of washing clothes stopped.

  "You're not comfortable getting up early, are you? I'd rather wash clothes by hand than use a fully automatic washing machine for half an hour just to wash one bra. You don't sleep at night and can't get up in the morning, but you have the nerve to say that you do nothing all day and only get up when the sun is shining on your butt. Usually, you don't do anything, not even taking good care of your own husband. If you were in our place, a wife like you would be beaten by her husband at least eight times a day."

  Auntie Li is a person who, although not highly educated, has traveled extensively throughout the country. She has lived in Haicheng for over two years and speaks with great forcefulness.

  "Shrew... not worth arguing with you..." Yao Meili only now truly came to her senses, remembering how formidable Li Shu was. She was someone who could be driven to vomiting blood just by covering half her mouth while scolding, and it wasn't just about winning an argument. So she hastily shut the doors and windows and went inside.

  "That lazy wife is just asking for a beating..." Aunt Li said, continuing to wash her clothes.

  At this moment, Zhao Long has already packed everything up, and Aunt Li's words just now made him feel very good.

  "Aunt Li, good morning!!" Zhao Long came out from inside and greeted Aunt Li.

  "Ah……he's up." Li Aunt was washing clothes under the faucet in the courtyard, saw Zhao Long come out and hurriedly wiped his waist with a towel: "Haven't had breakfast yet, right? Early this morning, I told you that fortunately, I met you yesterday. That Ma Xiaoru is not a good person either, you say a student can make herself look like a prostitute. By the way, the breakfast I made for Youyou earlier hasn't cooled down yet, go eat quickly."

  "Aunt Li, no need... " Zhao Long's appetite was huge now, three times more than usual, so he wanted to refuse going out to eat some.

  "There's no need to be polite, take what you want, don't be courteous with your aunt. If you're too polite, your aunt will get angry. Come on, here are two fried eggs and a hot congee, there are also mantou and pickles." Li Aunt said, and had already brought out the food, in the courtyard there was a small table and chairs, she put everything down directly.

  "Thank you, Aunt Li. By the way, Auntie, this is my rent money, can you help me give it to her? I have something to do in the next few days, just ask her to sign a receipt later." Suddenly, Zhao Long remembered about the rent and handed it over to Aunt Li.

  "Wow!" Aunt Li was also surprised: "How much is this? How did you raise it so quickly?"

  Aunt Li was very clear about Zhao Long's situation, so it was unexpected that he could raise this amount of money so quickly. More than 10,000 yuan is not a small sum of money.

  "Pangzi came yesterday, I borrowed some from him, and then I went to advance my salary, after gathering it together, it was just enough."

  "He won't get any fatter, will he? You have to advise him, if he gets any fatter it'll be no good, or else he won't even be able to fit through the door in the future." Aunt Li was also very familiar with Fatty, and said this as she took the money.

  Zhao Long didn't dare to say more, nodded his head and kept responding, quickly finishing the meal and then hastily got up and left. The rent issue was resolved, today was the first day of training, and the first thing to do was to push himself to the limit, trying to stimulate the power within his body after being adjusted and modified by Lao Shi.
