Chapter 10 Practice
Chen Pingan’s hands are not very skillful, but he does a pretty good job.
"That's it."
He inserted the newly made wooden stick into the door latch, just right, no more and no less.
"Wow, brother is great."
Chen Erya clapped and patted Rainbow Fart on the sidelines.
"Okay, brother is going to practice martial arts. Nannan, if you feel sleepy later, you don't need to wait for brother, just go to bed."
"Okay." Chen Erya responded.
Chen Pingan took out his underwear from the house.
These close-fitting clothes have now become an auxiliary tool for him to practice the iron cloth shirt. It’s hard to wear, but it’s pretty good to use.
When you get rich later, you must buy a suitable soft cloth to practice the iron shirt.
The conditions for practicing martial arts are really rudimentary.
Without the golden finger panel, Chen Pingan would not have the confidence to say that he would be able to master it.
The underwear was folded properly and tied around the chest and back. After wrapping it several times, Chen Ping'an began to practice the iron cloth shirt.
After the previous two successful experiences, he was quite familiar with the situation this time.
He rubbed every part of his body vigorously, then bent his elbows and arms to make his chest feel like he was squirming, and so on.
Again and again, again and again.
As he rubbed hard, Chen Pingan felt that his body was gradually getting hot. Then it started to feel hot, and my body felt a little painful.
Then as the rubbing continued, his pain began to intensify and became more and more obvious.
However, these pains were still within his tolerance.
Chen Pingan gritted his teeth and persisted.
Then, the next moment.
A +1 text symbol crossed Chen Pingan's sight.
Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: None
Martial arts: Iron cloth shirt is not yet started (3/5)
"very good!"
The few lines of text that appeared in front of him, especially the eye-catching 3, made Xu Changan feel happy and excited.
"Two points and two points of experience are enough to meet the entry requirements for Iron Clothes."
Chen Ping'an was thinking freely in his mind, and he untied the clothes around his chest and back, and everything he saw was flushed. At this time, his whole body was numb. A complex feeling of numbness mixed with pain, and pain mixed with itching.
"Brother~"
Chen Erya on the side handed over a bowl of water very obediently.
"Good sister!"
Chen Pingan praised it, took it with one hand, and swallowed it down.
After drinking the water, he did not sit on the wooden stool, walked a few steps, and sat on the threshold of the courtyard gate.
The two of them ate early, and the time it took to clean up plus the fact that he had been practicing for half an hour now, in general, it was not too late.
Chen Pingan wanted to try and see if he could complete two iron shirt exercises tonight.
Chen Ping'an sat on the threshold, feeling numb all over his body, as if there were small insects crawling around. Compared to just now, the pain has weakened a lot.
He rested on the threshold for half an hour before slowly getting up. After getting up, he did not immediately try to practice the Iron Shirt. Instead, he adjusted his posture slightly and relaxed his muscles.
"Nanny, you go and wash up first. When you feel better, you can go to bed directly without waiting for your brother."
Chen Ping'an glanced at Chen Erya, who was waiting for him with his head hanging, and gave instructions. "Yeah, okay." Chen Erya responded.
"continue!"
Chen Ping'an picked up his underwear, tied it around his chest and back, wrapped it several times, and began to practice the iron cloth shirt with familiarity.
His hands were everywhere on his body, rubbing them vigorously. It was okay at the beginning, he could take it easy. But just after a while, he felt some unbearable pain in his body.
Chen Pingan gritted his teeth and wanted to persist, but the subsequent pain became more and more obvious. And it wasn't just about pain, he felt like his flesh was about to burst open.
"Can't try again!"
Chen Pingan made a quick decision and decided to give up this exercise. It wasn't that he couldn't bear the pain, but that he was worried that if the skin was broken, it would affect his practice in the iron shirt in the following days.
It seems that with his current physique and level, it is impossible to practice Iron Clothes twice in a short period of time.
The reason why I practiced twice in one day yesterday was that I practiced once in the morning, then rested all afternoon, and then started practicing the second time in the evening.
Get up early in the morning, practice once before going to work, and then wait until evening to practice again. If you do this, you should be able to practice the iron shirt twice a day.
"Well, rest early today and try again early tomorrow morning!"
After making up his mind, Chen Ping'an took off his tight clothes. He fetched a basin of water and carefully wiped all parts of his body with a cloth.
Speaking of water, there is no well in his yard. Go out and walk about a mile to the east. There is a stream over there and a well beside it. On weekdays, water is brought from there and stored in the kitchen water tank.
"There's still half a tank of water, so I'm not in a hurry."
Chen Ping'an thought so.
Although Chen Erya is a big kid, she is still young, and it is still difficult for her to do physical work such as fetching water. Chen Pingan can fill up the water tank by running back and forth ten times. If it were Chen Erya, it would probably be more than twenty trips.
After scrubbing his body, Chen Pingan took a shower and rested for sleep.
When he entered the room, Chen Erya was not asleep yet.
"Brother, you are okay~"
"yes."
Chen Pingan responded.
Before going to bed, the brother and sister chatted for a while as usual.
Chen Erya probably shared with Chen Pingan the situation of food and clothing at home.
Like, although there are few candles lit at home on weekdays, the candles are almost bottoming out and I need to buy one to keep in reserve. There isn't much salt at home, so I need to buy some tomorrow. There is still a lot of rice and oil, but it needs to be sorted out tomorrow to prevent rats from eating it. Also, she went out to buy groceries today and heard some interesting stories from the streets.
There are all kinds of things, mostly in daily life.
Most of the time, Chen Pingan just listened and did not interrupt. During the break, he would also briefly share his daily life as a senior employee.
The brother and sister sleep together, doing this every night, which usually makes them feel at ease.
"Huchi~huchi~huchi~"
Early in the morning, Chen Pingan started practicing in the small courtyard.
Compared to last night, his physical feeling was undoubtedly much better. His hands kept rubbing and moving around. Keep bending and extending your elbows and arms to make your chest look like a crotch.
Today, Chen Pingan got up half an hour earlier than usual. Before dawn, he began to practice the iron cloth shirt.
Chen Erya was still asleep at first, but was later awakened by the sound of Chen Ping'an practicing.
She felt a little sad to see her brother working so hard so early in the morning.
But no matter how distressed she was, all she could do was help her brother cook a bowl of hot porridge.
