It's past noon. He came to the Nancheng District General Office again. This is the second time I came here after more than half a year. The last time I came here was because of Zhang Hai’s affairs. That time I came here very cautiously. I lowered my head and didn’t want to attract the slightest attention. I tried hard to reduce the sense of presence and quietly went to the back. prison. This time I came here but it was different. I was summoned by Xu Hongyu, the chief police officer. Even if I wanted to reduce my sense of presence, I had to report to the front desk first, and then go to the central building of the chief police officer. I would be led all the way. Go up to the fourth floor, which is the highest. The person who led him up was a police officer who worked at the headquarters. He cast a lot of curious eyes on him. On the way, he greeted him with a smile on his face and asked questions, showing that he wanted to get acquainted. The police officers who can work at the headquarters generally have some connections or some skills. They are still different from the lower-level police officers in various branches. They have more knowledge and a brighter vision. For someone like Chen Mu who was summoned by Xu Hongyu, the chief mission officer, no matter what the reason was, he was definitely not an ordinary person, so he was naturally willing to get acquainted with him. Okay, I'll send it here. Up there is the chief's office. Brother Chen, please go up on your own. Brother Chen can come to me when you have time. I will definitely invite Brother Chen to try the most famous dish in Nancheng. Fenglou drunk duck. The messenger who led Chen Mu upstairs led Chen Mu to the third floor, then stopped and held his hands with a smile. Chen Mu cupped his hands at the other party and went upstairs.
Four floors. This is the highest floor of the main building of the General Department of City Health. Here you can also overlook the most prosperous market in Nancheng District. The entire floor was large, but quiet. Chen Mu walked all the way and met only a female police officer in light clothing, who led him to the innermost hall. come in. Xu Hongyu's voice was not in the front hall, but came from the side hall. The female police officer who led him over motioned for him to come in. The side hall is not as spacious as the main hall, but it is very elegant. There are several wisteria wood tables with some documents or one or two pots of flowers and plants on them. Xu Hongyu was not wearing the white Feiyu suit, but was wearing a slightly loose casual dress. She was sitting behind a table near the window, leaning half of her body on the edge of the bed, holding her chin in a fist with one hand, and was sitting. Overlooking the city view outside the window. Master Chief Chaosi. Chen Mu stopped about two meters away and saluted. Xu Hongyu slowly turned her head, looked Chen Mu up and down, and then said: Your father Chen Feng is an old policeman in Jiutiao. He found Liu Ming's relationship and arranged you into the City Guard Department. At that time, you were not You don’t know how to use swordsmanship, and you haven’t had any relationship with me in the past few years. You’ve never learned swordsmanship from anyone, so it must be that you accidentally obtained the swordsmanship manual and practiced it on your own for three or four years?” Xu Hongyu clarified Chen Mu's resume in just one sentence. Chen Mu was not too surprised. After all, as Xu Hongyu, it was too easy to investigate all his information. It would only take one morning. If he is asked to come over in the afternoon, he will probably order someone to collect his resume information this morning. There is basically no problem with this resume, and maybe even his daily inspections have been investigated clearly, but the only thing unclear is... he has actually only been practicing swordsmanship for more than nine months, not three or four years. Of course, Chen Mu wouldn't be able to distinguish this kind of thing. Xu Hongyu thought it was more reasonable because he had practiced for three or four years. yes. Chen Mu handed over his hand again, showing some awe at the right time. Xu Hongyu looked at him again, then stood up suddenly, walked to Chen Mu, suddenly stretched out her hand, curved her small jade-like hand, and used her index and middle fingers to touch Chen Mu's ribs, chest, abdomen, and Poke three times in three places on the middle of the back.
These three strikes were as fast as lightning. Chen Mu could only see a blurry afterimage, but he already felt numb pain in three places. Then his body softened slightly and he staggered, almost losing his balance. Well...it seems so. Xu Hongyu retracted her hand, returned to behind the cases, looked at Chen Mu with a calm expression, pushed a pile of things on the table forward, and motioned for Chen Mu to take it. Chen Mu was poked three times by Xu Hongyu. At this time, his body was still a little numb and sore. Although he guessed that she might be checking his physical condition in some way, he couldn't help but secretly curse in his heart. He took a few steps forward with some difficulty, picked up the things on the table and looked at them. Only to see a few pieces of paper. The first one was a note written in Xu Hongyu's handwriting, which said, Withdraw three hundred taels of silver. The second picture below is a row of densely packed small characters, with a few larger and more conspicuous words at the top - Golden Jade Skin Resurfacing Method. Sir, this... Chen Mu showed surprise at the right time and looked at Xu Hongyu. But it was as clear as a mirror in his heart. It seemed that at his age, he had mastered sword skills by self-study, and his talents were probably higher than he expected, so much so that Xu Hongyu, the chief mission officer, was willing to show kindness to him. Win people's hearts. Although Tang Quan was killed by you, I was on the side at that time, so you can still be considered alive. Three hundred taels of silver is his wanted reward. As for this gold and jade skin grinding method... you should have heard of it. Internally practicing the body tempering method? Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu calmly. Chen Mu nodded and said, Sir, I have heard the saying that one skin, two flesh, three tendons and four bones. I have always had an idea, but the price is a bit expensive and I have no chance to touch it. Xu Hongyu nodded lightly and said: First, skin grinding, then meat training, then tendons, and then bone training... This is the most stable step in the practice of body tempering. Generally speaking, if you can complete the skin grinding training, you can deal with four situations with bare hands. Five villains won’t be a problem, and as long as you perfect your physical skills, even a dozen villains won’t be able to get close to you.” You can teach yourself to practice sword skills, which shows that you have a good understanding. Although your bones are average and you came into contact with the body tempering method a little late, you still have a good chance to perfect the realm of flesh training. At that time, it was considered a bit It’s up to standard.” Oh, by the way, the Tang Quan you killed was a well-trained martial artist. He had been seriously injured by me at that time, but his remaining strength was still extraordinary. You should be aware of this. More than just an experience, Chen Mu still has it fresh in his mind. In terms of skills, Tang Quan and he were about the same, and they should both be at the level of shi. However, the physical difference was too big. If Tang Quan hadn't been seriously injured all over his body, he might not have been able to sustain two or three moves in the opponent's hands. If Tang Quan had not been injured, I would be far from my opponent. Chen Mu shook his head and said. Xu Hongyu nodded lightly and said: That's right. You have the skills of 'power' but no physical support. You are like a duckweed without roots. You can deal with some unpopular people with ease, but when you encounter the tempered body If you have mastered the technique to a certain level, it will be difficult to deal with it. Even if the opponent's skills have not reached the level of 'power', you can still overwhelm them with force. With your current level, you are probably on par with a person who has perfected the skin grinding and has never mastered the 'power'. But if you can also reach the level of skin grinding, you can easily crush people of the same level who have never mastered the 'power'. It can even deal with some people who are a little accomplished in meat training, but their skills are not as good as the 'shi'. Chen Mu has never had a clear understanding of his own strength level. Now after hearing Xu Hongyu's words, he finally has a general understanding. The sword technique is technique, and the body tempering technique is strength. Only the combination of strength and skill is the right path, the road to heaven. Relatively speaking, cultivating Shi depends entirely on understanding, but the body tempering law relies more on the accumulation of resources, so people who have mastered Shi can be regarded as a type of talent, and if they are young enough, it will be even more extraordinary. As Xu Hongyu said, even among some people who have achieved great success in meat training, or even achieved perfection in meat training, there are still many who have only reached the level of mastery of their skills and have never developed 'movement'. They can only be regarded as second-rate at best.
As for Chen Mu, he has grasped the situation at a young age. As long as he trains his body to perfection, one person can deal with ten ordinary flesh-training beings who rely on stacked resources and do not have enough skills. This is the real elite. In the outer city, he can serve as a police officer for an area of one mile and command two to three hundred police officers. In the inner city, among several major forces, he can also be a middle-level elite, a guard martial artist who commands some troops. You have already mastered the most difficult positions. This body-tempering method only needs to be practiced hard every day to accumulate layer by layer. Although my 'Golden Jade Skin Polishing Method' is not the most efficient, It's a category one, but it does very little damage to the body. Even if you get older, you don't have to worry about the accumulated hidden injuries. If you leave it outside, it's worth a thousand dollars. Now I will reward you with this skin grinding method. Do you...understand? Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu quietly. Chen Mu naturally knew what he should say, and immediately said: Young man is just a messenger, and you act according to the orders from above. Your Excellency is so kind, and I will only obey you in the future. Yucheng's forces are complex. Even the City Guards Department does not cover the sky with one hand. Xu Hongyu also has some influence from the inner city and even other forces, either bribed or installed. Xu Hongyu feels that he is a talent worth cultivating, and what is needed is his clear attitude. . very good. Xu Hongyu nodded slightly, very satisfied with Chen Mu's attitude, and said: Go back, I have notified Min Chasi and asked him to take care of you. When you have successfully practiced this skin grinding method, I will transfer you. Come to the Headquarters. Chen Mu bowed again: Thank you for your attention, sir. I will follow your instructions. Xu Hongyu stopped talking and waved her hand at him. Chen Mu put the pages into his arms with a respectful look and then left the side hall. After Chen Mu left, Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu's back, a look of pity flashed in her eyes. It is indeed a talent to be able to practice sword skills after three or four years of self-study. It's a pity that my background is too poor and I was not able to come into contact with the body tempering method earlier. It is not difficult to practice to the level of flesh training, but if I want to reach the 'Yi Jin', I hope it will be easier. It’s a bit slim.” The children of wealthy families often practice skills since childhood. When they are fifteen or sixteen years old, which is the most suitable age, they begin to practice the body tempering method simultaneously. After three years of skin grinding and five years of flesh training, at the age of twenty-five, If you have perfected your meat training before, you will have great hope of entering the third realm of 'Yi Jin'. If those who have perfect meat training and perfect skills are middle-level elites, then those who have reached the level of Yijin are the real upper-level. The chief mission officer like her is based here. She didn't sit in the position of Chief Chaos just because of her background. Strength was one of the fundamental factors. but…… Chen Mu came into contact with the body tempering method a little too late. She had just tried Chen Mu's root bones. She had never practiced the body tempering method before, and he was now over twenty-two years old. Even if he practiced diligently, it would be difficult for him to enter the body training before the age of thirty. Complete. Because the best age to practice the body tempering method is to start at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and between the age of twenty-five, this is the period when young people's vitality is the strongest. It can be said that you can get twice the result with half the effort, and it will be basically fixed from then on. After the age of thirty, the situation basically starts to reverse, and it becomes half the result with twice the result, and it is difficult to make progress. With Chen Mu's talent, if he were born into a wealthy family, his current achievements may not be much lower than hers. Even if he is not in the state of Yijin, he must have reached the perfection of muscle training. Now he has just started to practice hard pursuit, but he is already More than a step too slow. She could only feel sorry for this. After all, Chen Mu is a very rare talent in the outer city, and he has a chance to be on par with her.
