Chapter 87 Pain and Gain
Mori Yu and Hui Ruomaru, who had come to their senses, hurried forward and carefully carried Yan Xu, who was still lying on the ground and twitching like a little rooster with its neck wiped, into the hot spring. Then they took off their clothes in tacit understanding and soaked in the water together, while reaching out to smooth out his tangled and cramped muscles.
One of them was a ninja and the other was a swordsman. They were very familiar with muscles and bones, and with the help of their slender and powerful jade fingers, Yan Xu's bad condition was slowly getting better. After all his muscles were smoothed out, he took a deep breath and recovered.
However, just as he recovered, Yan Xu had no time to appreciate the softness and delicateness that touched him from time to time, before all the pores on his body opened automatically, and he immediately broke out in sweat and his body couldn't stop shaking. Even after soaking in the hot spring, he still felt cold inside. This showed how much he had just consumed and how weak he was now.
Sen Yu didn't care about anything else, he jumped up, and quickly brought the cooked ginseng soup to feed it to his master who almost turned into Miao Renfeng.
As the bitter ginseng soup went down mouthful by mouthful, a faint heat began to spread from the stomach, nourishing the severely damaged body.
As the lost vitality was replenished, Yan Xu felt his cold and stiff limbs slowly recovering, and at the same time he couldn't help but feel a fear.
He was as awesome as Ultraman just now, but his heart was also like a timer with a countdown. If he hadn't acquired the passive skill of ghost body, the chance of him dying on the spot would have been as high as five levels.
This is the disadvantage of having no master or guidance. You can only try things on your own. If you succeed, continue practicing. If you fail, continue in the next life.
Yan Xu was lucky to escape this time, but what should he do next time, and the next time after that?
Lost in thought, Yan Xu finished the ginseng soup without realizing it. Sen Yu then brought the wolfberry and red dates chicken soup that had been stewed in advance. He placed the whole pot on a tray on the water, used his chest to block the tray so it would not float away, and then let the owner take it.
He simply reached out and tore off the soft-cooked chicken, and put it into his mouth with great effort. Feeling the replenishment of food, his hungry stomach immediately made a sound urging him to eat. At the same time, Yan Xu, who saw the good stuff, felt a little better in his bad mood.
When a woman is in a bad mood, it's like a minefield. When it explodes, you won't know how it happened, and it lasts for a long time. Thirty years later, if you step on it, it will still explode and leave you confused.
If a man is in a bad mood, he can restore his mood value by at least 20% by eating a barbecue and a bottle of beer. If he also has two large pieces of kidneys, his mood value will be +, and he can take out his mobile phone to check out beautiful women, and it will be full.
This is the nature of men, simple and easy to understand.
Although his mood improved, Yan Xu did not forget what happened just now. He made up his mind to find a master who could guide him in his practice in the next world. As for why he did not look for him in this world, although the temptation of the extraordinary was great, it did not mean that he could give up his bottom line. He would not look for a Japanese to be his teacher, unless he was in a very hot Tokyo, because he was still very curious about the posture.
No matter what, with a new world every year, Yan Xu will always find the right one.
In fact, if there were no restrictions on the bronze gate, Yan Xu would have found a way to cross the sea to the Central Plains to seek immortals.
There are ghosts, gods and supernatural beings in Japan, and there must be even more powerful and brilliant ones in the Central Plains of this world.
Unfortunately, he couldn't go. An inexplicable restriction prevented Yan Xu from leaving Japan, and he didn't know how to break this restriction.
After eating and drinking, his muscles relaxed, but the experienced Yan Xu knew that it would not be long before the tearing pain would come like a tide, because even before he did not move, his muscles were still beating rapidly, causing the muscle fibers to be damaged, but his body had not reacted yet, so he had to take action.
Being helped out of the hot spring by two men, it was inevitable that they would bump into each other during the process. This was normal, so Yan Xu's expression did not change at all, and he did not deliberately keep a distance. He lay on the low bed with a swaying step, and Sen Yu used a secret essential oil to massage him to speed up his body's recovery. Yan Xu, who had only experienced a proper massage, suddenly felt that Sen Yu's technique was a little wrong, um, oh~
With a red face, Karakamaru walked to the side with a knife in hand to be on guard, but he forgot that there were at least two dozen ninjas hiding around. Even if it was a mouse, there was no way it could hide from their eyes.
Although he used essential oils and massage, Yan Xu still felt as if his whole body was falling apart. Every inch from head to toe was stinging and wailing. He lay in bed for three days before he recovered.
If Yan Xu hadn't drank ginseng soup and chicken soup every meal for the past three days, he might not have recovered so quickly.
However, the pain was rewarded. His body began to slowly adapt to the previous special state, and his dormant muscles were awakened. As long as he persisted, it would not be a dream to achieve 100% muscle utilization.
Yan Xu estimated that if he could keep up with all the tricks, he could cheat once a week, and the effect of each cheat would be better than that of an ordinary person practicing hard for one or two months.
And as your body adapts, the training intervals will become shorter and shorter, and the results will become better and better.
But the cost is not small. I don’t know about the long-term benefits, but I used up one old ginseng in three days. It’s really too extravagant.
"It seems that we have to occupy Xiaoshui Town as soon as possible." After drinking the ginseng soup, Yan Xu's face became rosy and he was full of energy. It was obvious that he had recovered well, but he had consumed too much energy.
Even though the cost of obtaining ginseng was almost negligible, the territory of the Moroboshi family was not open to trade, and these days a round trip by sea often took years. By the time he opened up a trade route and had partners, at least two or three years would have passed, and it would be a question whether he would still need it by then.
Therefore, Yan Xu was not very concerned about the development of the Japanese world. He had always been aiming to build a safe place to live, because there were too many worlds waiting for him in the future, and it was impossible for him to put too much energy on the world of low value unless he found more surprises here.
While Yan Xu was recuperating, the fighting outside did not stop. Instead, it became more and more intense as the weather changed.
The howling cold wind brought more clouds, and as the clouds accumulated, the sky became darker and snow could fall at any time, forcing the Fukushima family to launch a more fierce offensive because they would have to withdraw once snow fell.
In the cold winter, it is difficult to ensure the combat effectiveness of soldiers, especially those attacking the city. Few can withstand a bucket of cold water being poured down on them.
Not to mention that the samurai and foot soldiers of the Sagara family scattered outside were also secretly gathering. If the enemy found an opportunity to launch a sneak attack and the defenders in the city took the opportunity to counterattack, the Fukushima family might not be able to withstand it.
The stalemate lasted for another day. When the snow started to fall, the Fukushima family had no choice but to decide to withdraw, while the Sagara family secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Unfortunately, they relaxed too early, and many strong cities were destroyed from within.
Not to mention that the Sagara family had just experienced a change of inheritance rights, and because of the overly rough approach, hidden dangers had already been laid.
