Longevity starts with strengthening the internal organs

With the teacher's contribution, Zhao Ya was finally able to enter the second floor of the library.

When he handed the division contribution sign to the guard in front of the door on the second floor, the guard registered it neatly and wrote down the current time.

"Remember, the secret book inside can only be read, not copied, let alone taken privately. Any violation will be severely punished," the guard warned.

"Understood." Zhao Ya nodded and responded.

"Go ahead. Two points of division contribution will be deducted every hour. The clock starts from now on, so time is precious and cannot be wasted." The guard reminded.

The teacher's contribution card needs to be temporarily placed on the guard's side. Zhao Ya stepped up the steps, opened the door and walked into the second floor.

What you enter is still full of books, and its size is not smaller at all compared to the first floor.

Zhao Ya did not dare to delay and went straight to the boxing area, then selected a book from the shelf and started reading it eagerly.

While Zhao Ya was working hard on the second floor of the library, still in the secret room on the top floor of the library, the Great Elder Guan Xuejiang and Guo Luming were drinking and chatting.

"Hehehehe." Guan Xuejiang laughed while drinking.

Guo Luming had a look of helplessness on his face, "Can you stop laughing like that? You're laughing so hard that I'm a little bit hairy."

"Aren't I happy? You don't know how happy I felt when I heard that Xia Jiye was forced to apologize to Zhao Ya in public." Guan Xuejiang said with a smile, and then he drank another big bowl.

Guo Luming's focus was not on this. He said with some distress: "You should drink sparingly. This is old wine that I have saved for 20 years. How can I tolerate you drinking like this?"

"Oh, senior brother, why are you so stingy? I'm happy today, can't you just let me drink two more drinks?" Guan Xuejiang said.

Guo Luming stopped persuading.

In fact, he also knew that the reason why Guan Xuejiang was so excited was entirely because he was too depressed before.

Although he is the great elder of Canglong Temple, since the Split War, many old men of Canglong Temple have died and retired, and the authority of the great elder has also been seriously weakened.

Not to mention anything else, the Chuanwu Hall was controlled by a group of elders. The needle could not penetrate, and the water could not pour in. Even if Guan Xuejiang wanted to intervene, he could do nothing but let them do whatever they wanted.

Of course, you can also forcibly replace the elders who transfer the power, but the problem is that there are only a few people who are qualified to serve as the elders. These people have long become an offensive and defensive alliance, and the same is true if you replace someone.

Guan Xuejiang had never thought of letting a principled person like Qin Jianji serve as an elder to teach martial arts, but he was boycotted by a group of people, so in the end he had no choice but to let it go.

Although Guo Luming has been hiding in the library, he knows these things very well in his heart.

This is also the reason why Guan Xuejiang insisted on clearing up the accumulated shortcomings before, because the internal conflicts in Canglong Temple are already very serious, and if no solution is found, there may be another splitting war one day.

Guan Xuejiang naturally understood why his senior brother was silent. In fact, as people who had personally experienced the chaos back then, their senior brothers had deep feelings about the current situation of Canglong Temple.

"Senior brother, I have been thinking about it all these years, but I didn't realize it until recently. I feel that the decline of Canglong Temple seems to be due to the split war, but now I don't think so." Guan Xuejiang Sighed.

"Oh? What do you think?" Guo Luming asked.

"I think the split war is only the result, not the cause. The conflicts within the division have intensified to the point of irreconcilability long before this, so it is natural for the split war to happen."

Guo Luming was silent.

Guan Xuejiang drank another glass of wine, "If I don't talk about anything else, let's just say that the struggle between the inner sect and the outer sect had already begun to emerge. In fact, there were many outstanding talents among the outer sect at that time, but the result was that because of the rules It’s unfair, most of them are separated, such as Lu Dingtai who taught Zhao Ya the Great Vajra Boxing.”

"I checked after I went back and found that although this person was not at a high level, he showed extremely high talent in practicing boxing. Such talents should have been the focus of training by the sect, but in the end they ended up being ignored and neglected. Causing him to leave."

"This is because Canglong Temple was so powerful at that time that when these outer disciples left, they thought it was due to their lack of cultivation and talent. Otherwise, it would inevitably lead to a lot of resentment, and it would be even less possible for someone as outstanding as Zhao Ya to appear. People have come to seek refuge, are you right, senior brother?"

Guo Luming smiled bitterly when he heard this, but did not respond.

"Actually, sometimes I really envy you, because senior brother, you actually know everything, understand everything, but you are only willing to dedicate yourself to the library and be an elder guarding the library. How is it like me, who was pushed to the shelf? This great elder is nothing in the end." Guan Xuejiang sighed again.

Guo Luming finally spoke, "Actually, the situation over at Beicanglong is no better than ours, and is even more serious. After all, those elders who rebelled back then were all for profit. Such people will quickly grow into New interest groups are difficult to shake.”

Guan Xuejiang nodded, "I know it too, but that doesn't mean that we, Nan Cang Long, don't need to work hard. In fact, since I told you last time that I wanted to eliminate the accumulated shortcomings, I have been thinking about how to get started. It turns out that there are so many threads involved that it affects the whole body, and it’s really hard to find a good entry point.”

Guan Xuejiang said what was in his heart.

The comfortable life of these years has made many elders not want to make progress. They only want to stick to their own three-acre land and live a small and nourishing life, completely ignoring that the foundation of Canglong Temple has already been crumbling under such erosion.

As the Great Elder, although Guan Xuejiang was saddened by this phenomenon, he didn't know how to start.

Although in terms of force, except for those retired old people, their brothers and sisters can sweep the entire Canglong Temple together.

But the problem is that if you really do that, then Canglong Temple will completely exist in name only.

They can't be the only two elders left in such a large sect.

And if things get really desperate, these elders can do anything. If there is another rebellion, or even colludes with Beicang Long, who has been eyeing them, the situation will be even worse.

Guan Xuejiang racked his brains for this, but never knew what to do.

Until today, when it came out that Zhao Ya and Xia Jiye were tearing each other apart, and Xia Jiye was finally forced to apologize in public, Guan Xuejiang couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he felt that he finally had some clues.

That was the real reason he was so excited.

Guo Luming knew this very well and couldn't help but frown and asked: "So you want to use this Zhao Ya to break the situation?"

"That's right."

"Regardless of Zhao Ya's talent, just because this kid dares to confront Xia Jiye and deliberately shows weakness before asking him to apologize in public, he is definitely a talent that can be made." Guan Xuejiang said.

"But don't you think this is unfair to Zhao Ya? After all, he is only a fifth-level warrior now, and he can't even open a pulse, but you want to involve him in the dispute between us elders." Guo Luming said .

"I understand what you mean. I don't intend to use Zhao Ya as a spearman. On the contrary, I will give him the greatest support during this period, such as letting you teach him personally, senior brother."

Guo Luming was exasperated, "You gave him resources and support, but in the end you asked me to teach him?"

"Hehe, can't you? Don't say you don't want to, don't I think you also appreciate this child?"

Guo Luming didn't say anything, "It's okay to teach him, but what are you going to do next?"

"The inside of the division has become difficult to recover, so I plan to start from the outside first. I have not been idle during this period, but have been planning to rebuild the outer sect. Now I am almost ready. It will probably take some time to rebuild. If it succeeds, then we can recruit outer disciples."

Guo Luming nodded, "Okay, you did a good job in this regard."

"There is no other way. Only by adding enough fresh blood can we break away the already solidified interest groups." Guan Xuejiang sighed, and then stood up.

"Okay, it's time for me to go."

"No more drinks?" Guo Luming asked.

"No more drinking. There are still many things to do."

As he spoke, Guan Xuejiang opened the window and disappeared in a flash.

Guo Luming looked at the direction he left with mixed feelings in his heart.

In fact, Guan Xuejiang never drank alcohol before, but since he became the Great Elder, he has become more and more greedy.

Guo Luming knew that what Guan Xuejiang liked was not drinking, but the state of being completely relaxed when he was drinking.

After all, when he was outside, he was the powerful elder of Canglong Temple. Although this position was glorious, it also gave him unlimited pressure.

Thinking of this, Guo Luming couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He felt that he was hiding in the library for peace and quiet, but leaving his junior brother to run around outside. This seemed to be a bit unethical.

That’s all.

Let's see if I can give my junior brother more help this time.

Thinking of this, Guo Luming went downstairs. When he arrived on the second floor, he saw Zhao Ya who was immersed in the ocean of martial arts.

Guo Luming didn't bother either.

After all, the second floor is different from the first floor. The time here is bought with the teacher's contribution. Any interruption is a waste.

He found a seat and began to sit down and drink tea.

After waiting like this for a whole day, until it was getting very late, Zhao Ya suddenly woke up.

"Have you finished reading?" Guo Luming's voice came from behind.

Zhao Ya put the secret book in his hand back on the bookshelf, turned around and saw Guo Luming looking at him with a smile.

"Well, I've finished reading."

"How's it going? Did you gain anything?"

"A lot has been gained, but there are also a lot of problems." Zhao Ya answered honestly.

"Oh?" Guo Luming raised his eyebrows.

"It just so happens that I have nothing to do today. Let's go down to the first floor first, and then let me hear what you have gained and what problems you have."

Zhao Ya followed Guo Luming to the first floor. After calculating the contribution of the teachers, there were only 190 points left.

But only 90 points are actually available, because when it drops below 100 points, you are no longer qualified to go to the second floor.

Zhao Ya once again realized the preciousness of his teacher's contribution.

It was getting very late at this time, so there weren't many people on the first floor.

Guo Luming found a quiet corner and listened to Zhao Ya describe his gains before speaking.

"Well, I can see that you really paid attention to it, so what is your problem?"

Zhao Ya didn't hide anything and told all the puzzles he encountered while browsing the boxing records.

Guo Luming answered them one by one.

You must know that with Guo Luming's attainments in boxing, it is not an exaggeration to describe him as having a commanding position.

Therefore, Zhao Ya can often explain problems that are difficult to solve in Zhao Ya's eyes in just a few words.

Half an hour later, after hearing the answer to the last question, Zhao Ya felt that his heart was clearer than ever before, and it was extremely refreshing to feel that all the questions were solved.

He bowed deeply to Guo Luming from the bottom of his heart.

"Disciple, thank you Elder Guo for your teachings."

"Hahaha, I have nothing to do, and you happen to be very talented, so I just gave you a few words. It doesn't have to be like this."

Zhao Ya said nothing more, just nodded, and then left.

Looking at his back, Guo Luming touched his chin, and for the first time he thought about accepting a disciple.

no way.

The talent shown by Zhao Ya is indeed amazing.

Not to mention anything else, the questions he asked just now are not something ordinary warriors can ask.

It is only possible to think of it after your understanding of boxing principles reaches a certain depth.

No wonder Guan Xuejiang chose him.

Zhao Ya didn't know this. At this time, he was rushing to the yard where he lived.

Because of today's harvest and Guo Luming's guidance, he had many new ideas, and Zhao Ya couldn't wait to try them out.

Soon, after returning to the small courtyard, Zhao Ya closed the courtyard door, then took out a piece of eighth-grade dried meat seized from Hei Yunzi and carefully put it into his mouth.

The surging Qi, blood and essence were continuously absorbed into the body, and Zhao Ya then began to practice.

First the most proficient Five Tiger Fist, then the Great Vajra Fist, and finally the Little Arhat Fist that Guo Luming taught him.

Zhao Ya did not practice boxing very fast, and he could see every move very clearly.

Moreover, there is not much sound when punching, and there is not even much wind from the punch.

But the more this happened, the more solemn Zhao Ya's expression became.

Gradually, Zhao Ya's boxing skills became more and more elegant, and the three sets of boxing skills that were originally different also showed signs of merging together.

Zhao Ya felt neither sadness nor joy in his heart, and practiced slowly according to his own feelings.

Suddenly.

Zhao Ya was suddenly shocked, and then he felt that his whole body suddenly became enlightened.

The feeling is the same as driving through a dark tunnel and suddenly rushing out.

A series of prompts appeared in front of my eyes.

[Five Tiger Fist proficiency increased by 18%]

[Greater Vajra Fist proficiency increased by 19%]

[Little Arhat Boxing proficiency increased by 88%]

[The boxing techniques begin to merge...]

[Successful fusion of boxing techniques, obtaining the Fudo Meio Fist]
