Health Martial Saints: Start with soaking your feet

Chapter 3 Chapter [-]: Health preservation begins with soaking feet (change!)

(New book set sail, old iron is welcome to leave a paw print, ^_^)

……

In the days that followed, Li Suian stayed at home all the time.

He set a small goal for himself: work hard and work hard, insist on soaking feet for [-] days!

I was bored, and wrote myself two motivational scrolls with my intact left hand:
Those who have aspirations, things will come true, and they will go on the list of long-term longevity; short-lived people are not afraid of the sky, soaking their feet for a hundred days to explore the world.

Trees with lofty ambitions, hanging beams piercing to the bone, will come one day after all hardships and hardships; accumulate momentum, hear chickens dance, and reward next year in the golden autumn.

"Hmm, eight mistakes and eight mistakes."

Li Suian was lying on the reclining chair, enjoying the maid's massage while admiring his calligraphy, feeling good about himself.

The new skill information that just popped up in the skill section is automatically ignored.

"Calligraphy: LV1 beginners practice (123/10000)."

Xiao Narcissus said that she couldn't understand, but she was greatly shocked, "Master, your hand needs to be healed soon."

When the time comes, the master will be able to write with his right hand, so he won't have to look at such ugly characters anymore.

Li Suian nodded and said: "Little Narcissus, you are not bad, the massage technique has become more refined."

"It's just that your arms are a little thin. You are only 14 years old. You are at the age of growing your body. The master rewarded you with two taels of silver, and you can buy some delicious supplements yourself. Later, I will ask Uncle Fu to give you more meat. You are so strong." .”

Her family ancestor was a doctor, and she has learned some basic medical skills since she was a child, and she knows how to massage acupoints.

Her family was backward and her family could no longer support her, so she was sold to the Li family as a maid.

"Thank you, master, for the reward!"

As soon as Narcissus was happy, he worked hard.

With so much silver reward, my mother must be very happy to take it home, and I can also weave a new dress for my younger brother.

"Hiss~"

"Narcissus, you don't have to press that acupuncture point so hard."

Narcissus smiled, "Master, this is Yongquan point. Kidney qi starts from the bottom of the foot. Taixi point and Yongquan point are related to the kidneys and are the source of life. If it is normal, it will not hurt, and if it hurts, it will not work. If it hurts, it means that the master's kidneys are not good. .”

Hmph, I still dislike my weak hands, I haven't used my strength yet.

"What nonsense... the truth."

Feeling that the little maid is getting stronger and stronger.

Li Suian immediately shut his mouth obediently, his upper body curled up, biting his hands.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "all diseases start from cold, and cold comes from the feet".

A person's feet are like the roots of a tree. A tree can grow luxuriantly because of its deep roots. Whether the human body is healthy or not, the feet are also very important.

It is not without reason that the foot massage sword business was so popular in the previous life.

Kunpeng Fucheng is located in the cold north, and the winter time is particularly long.

There are also hot spring bathhouses in the city. Once the temperature cools down, the business will be quite hot.But that place is somewhat low-end, and there is no attention to hygiene, and the coolies on the docks often gather here.

Li Suian wondered if it would be possible to open a hot spring spa in the future, so that people in this world can experience the joy of high-end and professional foot massage.

……

The arm is not flexible, and strenuous exercise is avoided.

Then read books, write and write, read newspapers, play chess, play the piano, draw and paint, and cultivate your sentiments.

Be a sexually blessed and loving person, care about restaurants and business, be considerate of maids and workers, and understand this world from many aspects.

Inadvertently, there are a few more life skills:
"Chess skills: LV1 beginners practice (456/10000)."

"Temperature: LV1 for beginners (247/10000)."

"Painting skills: LV1 beginners practice (369/10000)."

This can be regarded as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, everything is sloppy.

What touched Li Suian the most was that he accidentally saw Chen Zhonghe, the "security captain" hired by the restaurant, practicing martial arts, smashing a large bluestone with one punch.

Li Suian was greatly shocked at the time, and immediately stepped forward to hook up enthusiastically.

According to Master Chen, he is just an ordinary body tempering martial artist who has achieved a little success in bone tempering, so he is not considered a master.

People like him are caught in a lot of rivers and lakes, and they can only do some housekeeping and nursing home work for wealthy families.

Through talking with Master Chen, Li Suian also learned a lot about martial arts.

The primates of all things in this world always like to distinguish between high and low.

The civil and military officials in the court are divided into nine ranks and eighteen ranks. From the first rank chief assistant Zaifu to the ninth rank sesame officials, they are all in the nine ranks and eighteen ranks.High and low, at a glance.

The same is true in the arena.

I don't know when or who started it, and martial arts has also been divided into nine ranks like the imperial court.

From the ninth rank to the first rank, the nine realms are: enter the strength, quench the body, enter the gods; hold the pill, control the gang, see the gods; true martial arts, immortality, and longevity!
Entering Jin, as the name suggests, is to feel Qi Jin, accumulate Qi Jin, and open up the whole body Qi.It is a process of consuming the body's qi, blood and essence, refining and transforming qi.

Tempering the body is naturally tempering the body.

This is not a single state that can be achieved overnight, it requires skin, flesh, tendons, bones, viscera, and marrow, step by step, relying on each other, and tempering the whole body.

After all, the human body is a whole, tempering the skin and flesh will naturally exercise the muscles and bones.It is difficult to completely distinguish them and refine them separately.

Therefore, there is a big gap between the quenched body realms.

Those who are weak have a strong body and are as strong as an ox.

A strong man, with a body of steel, like a dragon and an elephant.

There is a proverb in Jianghu, "The body can be tempered for a lifetime".

Even if one enters the "Enchanted God" realm, one can still continue to refine the physical body.

However, the vast majority of people in the rivers and lakes only stay in the first two realms all their lives.

Even the night watchmen of the Lantern Division on the Lion Mountain are mostly in the eighth-rank Body Tempering Realm.

Going one step further is the state of ecstasy.

Being able to see the works of micro-knowledge, open the sea of ​​consciousness in the upper dantian, and glimpse the spirit.

That is both internal and external cultivation, detached from ordinary people.

Putting it in Kunpeng Mansion City, he can already be regarded as a master.

Even in the Lantern Division, there must be a rank of one hundred households.

To be able to open a martial arts gym in Kunpeng City, at least one must be a seventh-rank martial artist.

Moreover, there are hundreds of civil and military officials in the court, and the same is true for martial arts in the world.

Some focus on the soul, soul, and soul, while others focus on the body and body. The emphasis is different, and the difference is very large.

After learning so much about Jianghu, Li Suian became more and more enthusiastic, and only hoped that his arm would be healed soon.

Some people may ask, since the whole world is not safe, isn't it good to practice martial arts?

The predecessor seems to have practiced for a while when he was a child, but then gave up.

So did his father.

Ninety-nine out of ten people in the world don't have the talent to practice martial arts, and even if they practice, they are at most at the level of guarding homes for people.

For a rich family, it is enough for the guards to be vicious enough, and even beggars dare not come to the door.

What's more, the old Li's family started a business, so there is no need to learn martial arts from others.

That is too difficult.

Old Li's family is already thin, if you learn martial arts, you can't be high or low, and it's useless if you can't become a master.If he develops the habit of being brave and ruthless, and causes trouble every three days, he may be hacked to death on the street one day, and the Li family will be completely wiped out.

So it is not mandatory.

But Li Suian is different, he is very interested in this matter.

(PS: This passage was added later, and there is a wave of explanation: Some people always question why the protagonist doesn't practice martial arts since he knows the world is dangerous? There are too many people who can't practice martial arts in ancient times, and they didn't die. How can martial arts be so easy to practice. )
During the period of recuperation, his self-created "foot soaking" magic skill did not fail.

I even asked Master Huang for a lot of medicated bath recipes, combined with his previous experience of soaking feet, and tried many times.

The medicines for soaking feet are not random, but should be taken according to their efficacy, such as those that invigorate the spleen and relieve dampness, those that warm and invigorate qi, those that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and so on.

For invigorating the spleen and promoting dampness, pinellia, tangerine peel, codonopsis pilosula, Atractylodes macrocephala, poria cocos, yam, roasted licorice, etc. are commonly used. Frequent soaking helps to regulate stomach fire, dredge qi and blood, and help warm yang and diuresis.

For warming and nourishing qi, use mugwort leaves, ginger, pepper, aconitum, aconite, etc.

Artemisia argyi, in particular, is one of the most common medicinal materials for foot baths. This type of Chinese herbal medicine helps warm the meridians, activate collaterals, dispel dampness and dispel cold, and is beneficial to the muscles, joints, and blood of the feet and legs.

The ones for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis are the ones that Li Suian used to use before.

He found that different combinations of medicinal materials have slightly different effects on the growth of skill proficiency.

He can't keep soaking his feet once a day, because he doesn't know if his proficiency will increase or not, and his feet will rot first.

The soaking time should not exceed two quarters of an hour at most, and more soaking will not increase your proficiency.

It is best to soak before going to bed at night, and this time gives the most proficiency.

After soaking the feet and then pairing it with a massage, it can increase at least 100 proficiency points at a time.

Not just feet.

Li Suian's daily habits have also changed a lot.
