I practice martial arts by adding skill points in modern city-Chapter 72: 【066】Child’s Kung Fu

Boom!

Above the dark clouds, a few bolts of lightning exploded, and the torrential rain poured down with a deafening roar, devoid of any bit of charm.

The enormous rainfall pounded the trees, making them sway precariously. The earth rumbled in response, creating an oppressive scene of clouds pressing down on the city.

Yandun Mountain is the highest peak on the main island of Dong County, standing at 227 meters. At its summit stands the most famous building in Dong County, the Sea View Tower, commissioned by Yan Yan, the governor of Yongjia under the Southern Dynasty.

He even penned a poem for this renowned tower:

The spiritual sea encircles the emerald peaks, the mind’s appreciation of past sages has become empty.

Today, the pavilion and building remain pristine, while the vast waters of Canglang stretch in view.

Standing at the top of the Sea View Tower, you can take in the entire Dong County, enjoying the scenic beauty of sea and sky, and viewing the whole island from above.

Rainwater streamed down along the eaves, appearing from a distance like a curtain of rain.

On the top floor of the Sea View Tower, a young man wearing a dark blue suit, black-framed glasses, and slicked-back hair held an ancient box, standing on the outer observation corridor of the top floor, expressionlessly surveying the entire Dong County.

A man with a face covered by sunglasses, dressed much like a chauffeur, stood behind him, holding an umbrella to shield the young man from the rain pouring in from outside.

"Mr. Lu, the martial artist you hired failed. He’s already been locked up in the police station. The troublemaker turned out to be someone from the Wen City Martial Arts Association. I heard it loud and clear in the voice message he sent back."

At this moment, inside the top floor, a middle-aged burly man sitting on a wooden chair guzzling beer suddenly turned his head to sneer.

"Have those two statues been found?" the young man asked, still without turning his head.

"Found them, but now they’ve all fallen into the hands of the Martial Arts Association people. You’re going to have a hard time getting them back, I’m afraid."

"Hard time? Yu Tianli, even you, the notorious Sixth Lord of the Outer Eighth Hall, say it’s hard. In whose tough hands have those statues ended up?" the young man walked into the room and asked, sitting across from the middle-aged burly man.

"Tough hands? Mr. Lu, you really put it too politely. I bet you can’t guess what kind of expert the Martial Arts Association brought this time. Let me tell you, it’s the Dark Force level! Do you know how rare it is to encounter a Dark Force expert while traveling? I didn’t expect, under Master Yan Jie’s tough measures, a big fish would emerge from such a small place."

Watching Yu Tianli’s excitement, the young man was somewhat puzzled: "The transition from Ming Jin to Dark Force, I know about that. But why are you so happy? As far as I know, you have trained in martial arts for years but only reached the Ming Jin level. The reward I promised you comes on the condition that you help me retrieve the Marrow Cleansing Scripture. Otherwise, you won’t get a dime. With a Dark Force expert, you should be quite worried, shouldn’t you?"

"Mr. Lu, where’s the fun in a fair fight? Annihilating those rare, unique existences is the real joy in life. Dark Force is hard to train, and once achieved, is powerful in action. But so what? They’re still afraid of guns and knives. With enough people and preparation, even a Dark Force expert would find nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. It’s amusing, truly amusing."

Yu Tianli downed his beer, laughing excitedly.

The young man remained indifferent; he had long known that the guy he paid to hire was not normal, possibly due to his activities of brutalizing several men and women on Hong Kong Island, forcing him to smuggle into Laos, Cambodia, and other places. freeweɓnovel~cѳm

Relying on his martial skills in those lawless gray zones, he committed countless nefarious deeds.

If it weren’t for the importance of the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, he wouldn’t have used his influence to smuggle this guy back from Southeast Asia.

"What do you plan to do? As long as you can retrieve the statues, I can assist you," the young man asked.

Yu Tianli grinned: "It’s simple, money. As long as there’s enough money, I’ll hire someone to take care of that Dark Force expert for you. After all, even a Dark Force expert has to sleep, right?"

...

The top of the Longpit.

Crack! Crack!

The old wooden table shattered with two punches from Wang Longhu and Hong Wentai, and the statues of Bodhisattva Guanyin and Tathagata Buddha placed on the table instantly crumbled into fragments.

The monk standing nearby closed his eyes and clasped his hands together at this sight, muttering continuously: "Amitabha."

Wang Longhu reached out and swept away the statue fragments, quickly discovering two ancient manuscripts, rolled into a bundle, hidden within the statue for who knows how many years.

The two ancient books had considerable age; the spines were bound with white thread, yet they seemed well-preserved inside the statues, retaining enough integrity for one to read through.

Wang Longhu picked one up and opened it. On the cover of the ancient book were the brush-written words "Tong Zi Gong."

"Wasn’t there supposed to be only one Marrow Cleansing Scripture? How did two books fall out, Tong Zi Gong?" Wang Longhu flipped a few pages: "This really exists, huh? The legendary old virgin’s cultivation manual."

"Oh, there’s childlike Kungfu? Let me take a look," the master monk said, and Wang Longhu handed it over to him.

"Embracing Originality and Preserving Yang Meditation Method, fortify the origin and cultivate vitality, avoid women... So this is childlike Kungfu, it’s really not far off," the master monk remarked after reading a few pages, with a deep sense of insight.

"Master, what exactly is childlike Kungfu, do you really need to be a child to practice it?" Wang Longhu asked curiously.

"Shaolin Temple has four great powers: Marrow Cleansing Scripture, Bone Transformation, Golden Bell Shield, and childlike Kungfu. These four powers go beyond the scope of Martial Arts and are essentially more akin to the Alchemy Dao of Pre-Qin cultivators,

The Marrow Cleansing Scripture and Bone Transformation mainly focus on cleansing the body’s structure, with the effect of breaking the human body’s skill ceiling. Childlike Kungfu emphasizes fortifying the origin and cultivating vitality, sealing men’s kidney energy, vitality, essence energy, and blood energy inside the body to nurture the Yang energy,

Abundant Yang energy can improve physical constitution and increase strength in men. Childlike Kungfu is just a metaphor, indicating that the smaller you are, when the Yang energy is still present, the better the effect of meditation training."

Wang Longhu scratched his head, "So that means, even if I don’t have Yang energy now, I can still practice this?"

"Yes, but compared to a child, the initial effect will be much lesser. It is well known that men are born in a state where their Yang energy is undischarged, and self-circulation of internal Yang energy can enhance skeleton, internal organs, and brain, benefiting the physical growth of young males,

And when men are young, they often have two visitors, Elder Chen and Aunt Meng,

Many people understand that Yang energy only leaks when combined with the opposite gender, but this viewpoint is actually incorrect."

The master monk shook the childlike Kungfu in his hand, "When a male meets Aunt Meng for the first time, he is no longer in a state of undischarged Yang energy. Therefore, a child needs to start practicing childlike Kungfu at a young age to fortify the origin and cultivate vitality,

So when Elder Chen and Aunt Meng appear, a martial artist can maintain self-control to lock the essence gate, preventing the leakage of Yang energy."

Wang Longhu was stunned. He had told many dirty jokes to girls back in school, but this was the first time a monk had told him a dirty joke.

"And even if Yang energy has leaked, it’s okay. You can still practice this childlike Kungfu. Otherwise, why is it called childlike Kungfu instead of virgin Kungfu?

Just that you need to abstain first and build your kidney energy, vitality, essence energy, and blood energy into Yang energy, only then can you see results. During this process, you must not leak Yang energy, or all previously attained will be lost."

The master monk explained the key points to Wang Longhu and Hong Wentai while looking at the childlike Kungfu.

Hong Wentai dismissively waved his hand, "I’ll pass; my tigress at home demands I turn in my duties every week, leaving no time to fortify the origin and cultivate vitality."

"Are you a child?" the master monk asked Wang Longhu.

Wang Longhu: "..."

He was already 25 years old; if he were still a child, how miserable his life would be, how unpopular he was with girls.

For a moment, Wang Longhu couldn’t help but recall his high school days. In the months before the college entrance examination in his senior year, many students went out for recruitment exams, and Wang Longhu, being playful, applied to a school in Hang City.

That very night, he and his classmate who went out visited a bar in Hang City, and he drank too much that night.

He met a young rich lady sitting in the adjacent booth, and that night she took him to a hotel to sleep together.

The next morning, upon waking, the lady found out Wang Longhu was a virgin and straightforwardly gave him a 3,000 yuan red envelope, a memory that stayed fresh with Wang Longhu despite the years passing by.

That was his valuable first time.

"Hello? Why are you spacing out?" The master monk shook the daydreaming Wang Longhu, placing the childlike Kungfu in his hands, "If you’re not planning to find a girlfriend for the next few years, take this and practice it. It’s good for your body."

"What... aren’t you going to practice this, Master? I feel your profession is well-suited for it," Wang Longhu asked, puzzled.

"I’ve already started on another form of origin fortification. Practicing childlike Kungfu would conflict with it; comparatively, the Marrow Cleansing Scripture suits me better. Let’s stay at Wang Longhu’s place these few days to delve into the Marrow Cleansing Scripture, and it will save us from running here and there," the monk lifted another ancient book from the table, asking Hong Wentai for an opinion.

Hong Wentai nodded in agreement, "No objection from my side."

With Hong Wentai willing to stay at his place, Wang Longhu was very pleased inside.

Xingyi Boxing turns spear into punch; if he could practice the spear techniques, he would gain significant improvements in boxing skills.

And Hong Wentai, being an expert immersed in Bajiquan spear techniques for over ten years, learning from him would immensely help Wang Longhu’s martial arts advancement.

Most importantly, Wang Longhu could use Hong Wentai’s spear for practice without spending time to custom-order one, achieving two goals at once.
