Bearing the blue sky

"Crackling, crackling..."

The flames roared, scorching the bear meat.

Zhu Ge, on the other hand, tells the hedgehog girl about his experiences, hoping to gain more knowledge from her.

This hedgehog girl is always in bursts, and every now and then some news will be leaked out.

These messages were very helpful to Zhu Ge.

"The Plague God Sparrow is incredibly powerful! I heard that its divine will has already leaped to become a 'domain,' a divine domain!" The hedgehog girl exclaimed in amazement. "Whether it's the Immortal Domain, the Literary Domain, or the Divine Domain, they are all filled with 'will.' Within a domain, the greatest are invincible."

area!

Zhu Ge's expression changed drastically.

It turns out that the boundless plague of the Plague God Sparrow was His divine realm!

No wonder he's so strong; just one glance from him almost injured him.

"And what about the Lord of Yuanyang City?" Zhu Ge asked again.

The Lord of Yuanyang City is a great immortal, so he should be no weaker than the Plague God Sparrow.

"I heard..." the hedgehog girl lowered her voice, as if afraid of being overheard through the walls, "I heard that the Lord of Yuanyang City still hasn't condensed his own Immortal Domain."

"Where did you hear all this from?" Zhu Ge was genuinely curious.

There's nothing the hedgehog girl doesn't know!

Even the Hedgehog Girl, a great immortal like the Lord of Yuanyang City, knew a little about it.

"I don't know!" The hedgehog girl tilted her head. "Anyway, I went everywhere and heard people talking, so I wrote them down. I found it very interesting."

"You don't even know what color underpants the Lord of Yuanyang City likes to wear, do you?" Zhu Ge asked with a strange expression.

Seeing this, the hedgehog girl crept closer, glancing left and right to avoid being overheard, and whispered, "White."

Zhu Ge: "?"

Cattle!

Cow!

"Yes, very good. Keep it up in the future." Zhu Ge nodded, not wanting to say anything more.

They really struck gold.

He initially tamed the hedgehog simply to have it guard the gate, to act as a watchdog.

After all, this valley will be his base camp in the future, and someone needs to guard it.

This hedgehog has a long field of vision and can shoot its long spines like arrows, making it perfect for guarding a home.

Unexpectedly, the hedgehog girl had such a wide range of knowledge; she was a complete gossip and knew everything.

It's hard to say what the Hedgehog Girl has been doing all these years, since she can even describe the color of the City Lord of Yuanyang's underwear.

"Brother, I'm impressed." Hua Liusha in his mind also sighed, "I never thought Jianjian would have such a fondness for asking about things."

"Jianjian?" Zhu Ge asked, looking at the hedgehog girl with a puzzled expression. "What's your name?"

"Willow Tip!" The hedgehog girl smiled sweetly, "Hehe, an aunt gave me this name back then, and I thought it sounded really nice."

"Mm." Zhu Ge nodded. "Here, the bear paw should be cooked by now. Eat up."

He handed over the bear paw and picked one up to gnaw on himself.

Even after being roasted, the bear paw still smelled incredibly fishy and nauseating.

But that kind of highly spiritual flesh and blood was also deeply nourishing Zhu Ge's body.

After finishing the bear paw, which was even thicker than Zhu Ge's torso, Zhu Ge was still not full and continued to eat the meat he had saved earlier.

After finishing all the monster meat stored in the grass bowl, Zhu Ge felt refreshed.

"Master, you can eat so much!" Liu Jianjian exclaimed in astonishment. "So much meat! You can eat even more than a demon beast that devours essence!"

"So-so." Zhu Ge is practicing body tempering; no matter how much he eats, it's about the same.

"You stay here and guard this place, I'm going to cultivate for a bit." Zhu Ge looked towards the middle of the valley.

After his great battle with the long-bristled boar, the area had become flat and open, with only a few ponds, making it perfect for practicing the martial arts he knew.

Tai Chi, Baduanjin, and Wuqinxi!

He's a big fan of these martial arts and has learned quite a bit; now he's finally putting them to good use.

"Let's start with a set of Tai Chi..."

Zhu Ge stood in the valley, feeling the gentle breeze, and began the Tai Chi starting posture.

He is now going to observe according to Liu Jianjian's instructions.

Learn from the ways of our ancestors!

However, after performing a set of Tai Chi and Baduanjin martial arts, Zhu Ge showed no reaction whatsoever.

"wrong……"

Zhu Ge frowned.

"Either I'm learning it wrong, or it's too advanced. In any case, I shouldn't be practicing these; I should be practicing the Five Animal Frolics!"

Zhu Ge's eyes lit up.

What's the most abundant thing here?

Monster!

Monsters are everywhere!

The Five Animal Frolics is said to be a method for strengthening the body created by Hua Tuo after learning from five animals.

The five animals imitated in the exercise correspond to the five internal organs of the human body, forming a complete health preservation system.

That is, tiger plays govern the liver, deer plays govern the kidneys, bear plays govern the spleen, ape plays govern the heart, and bird (crane) plays govern the lungs.

In her previous life, Zhu Ge was afraid of having kidney deficiency, so she practiced the Five Animal Frolics every day, and thus memorized the movements perfectly.

Now that we are going to follow the path of our ancestors and forge our own, the Five Animal Frolics is definitely the most suitable martial art for Zhuge Liang.

After all, unless he observes the founders like Zhang Sanfeng practicing martial arts, the Tai Chi techniques he knows might not be useful; he only learned them online.

But the Five Animal Frolics are different.

The core of the Five Animal Frolics lies in imitating and learning the five animals.

Even if what Zhu Ge learns is not the orthodox, original creation of Hua Tuo, he can still observe the "Five Animals" and then learn and correct them.

Thus, by combining martial arts techniques such as "Lighting Incense" and "Wrathful Vajra Palm," he forged his own path.

Do it if you want to!

Zhu Ge steadied himself, took a deep breath, and then slowly began to punch.

First up is the tiger play!

It imitates the fierce pounce of a tiger, with movements like "tiger lift" and "tiger pounce".

This section mainly focuses on strengthening the lower back, spine, and joints of the limbs.

According to what I said in my previous life, this play can replenish essence and marrow, strengthen the waist and kidneys, and also clear the Qi of the Triple Burner.

The second deer play imitates the relaxed stretching of a deer.

Movements such as "deer pushing" and "deer running" focus on stretching muscles and bones, strengthening the waist and lower limbs, and have the effect of soothing the liver and strengthening muscles, as well as regulating the Qi of the liver and gallbladder meridians.

It perfectly matches his "Waist and Horse Techniques".

As for bear plays, they imitate the bear's steadiness and solidity, with movements such as "bear movement" and "bear swaying".

When Zhu Ge was fighting the bear, he recalled the movements of a family of bears, which involved shaking his waist and abdomen to massage his spleen and stomach.

It is said that this play can enhance physical strength and regulate the spleen and stomach. Zhu Ge finds it very easy to practice, after all, he is a body-refining martial artist.

The fourth play is the ape play, in which Zhu Ge imitates the giant ape from the previous Essence-Swallowing Realm.

However, the core of monkey play lies in the agility and nimbleness of the monkey, with movements such as "monkey lifting" and "monkey picking".

It trains mental and physical coordination through actions such as jumping and peeking.

However, the giant ape was a power-type demonic beast, and Zhu Ge was unable to imitate its true essence.

However, this play has the effects of nourishing the heart and brain, relieving nervous tension, and improving the blood and qi of the heart meridian, which Zhu Ge also attaches great importance to.

As for the last play, it is called the Bird Play, or the Crane Play.

It imitates the lightness and grace of birds and cranes, with movements like "bird stretching" and "bird flying".

What's remarkable is that he can also effortlessly perform the crane dance and the blessing song.

Perhaps it's because he possesses the simulated trait [Kunpeng].

Bird play enhances lung function, regulates blood and qi, and clears the meridians of the lungs and large intestine by expanding and contracting the chest and stretching the arms.

Tiger, deer, bear, ape, bird!

After finishing one set of the Five Animal Frolics, Zhu Ge slowly stopped.

"My Dao is contained within the Five Animal Frolics."
