I was just talking! But I didn't expect you to actually stay quiet!
Looking at this kid's appearance, he has really found the trick of standing still and obtained great medicine for his body!
Master Fu Wu was both surprised and helpless.
"Could it be that this kid is a gifted person?"
Master Fu Wu's mind moved, and he suddenly had some more ideas.
"Look again, look again."
After taking a deep look at Li Qinglin who was still standing still, Master Fu Wu pointed at everyone present and left a warning, "Don't move the weapon racks," before floating away.
…
After a moment.
A huge feeling of hunger suddenly pulled Li Qinglin out of his immersive state.
Li Qinglin finally came back to his senses, breathing heavily, and felt his legs and hips were weak and powerless, accompanied by a tearing and sore feeling in his muscles.
He sat down on the ground, turned around, and saw Donkey Face and Ruan Qi still standing tremblingly, sweating profusely.
"That kid looks quite energetic. I didn't expect him to last so long. Less than a quarter of an hour, right? Hehe, he broke the shortest record..."
"Some things are not good too fast."
"I remember the first time we stood in a standing posture, the one who stood the longest was Miao Miao, Senior Sister Miao, right?"
Not far away, a few tenants who were taking a break were leaning against the wall and talking. They looked at Li Qinglin with contempt, as if they were gloating over his misfortune.
Li Qinglin recognized these men. They were servants in the outer courtyard who were responsible for chopping wood and felling trees. They were much stronger than their peers.
Li Qinglin paid no attention to their discussions and looked at the woman with braids who looked like a porcelain doll.
"Miao Miao..."
Li Qinglin muttered to himself.
The layman watches the excitement, while the expert sees the details.
Perhaps because he had just entered a state of tranquility and grasped the essence of standing still, Li Qinglin clearly felt that Miao Miao was also completely calm at this moment.
The body seems neither loose nor relaxed, the legs are as stable as wooden stakes, but the breathing and chest rise and fall are extremely rhythmic.
Quieter than Li Qinglin!
Li Qinglin glanced at the old students and saw that many of them were also standing in the stance for a long time, but their postures were loose and their thigh muscles were trembling slightly, and it was obvious that they were trying hard.
"To collect herbs, you need to be quiet before you can collect them. In fact, it has no direct connection with how long you stand in the stance."
"One moment of quiet time collecting herbs is equivalent to half a day of ordinary standing still."
Seeing this, Li Qinglin suddenly realized something.
As soon as he thought about it, the panel appeared -
【Other-transformation and freedom】
【Name: Li Qinglin】
【Lifespan: 15/58】
[Realm: Ordinary]
[Gongfa: Herb-collecting and Standing Gong (Beginner’s Guide)]
[Other Avatar: Bell Toad (12% in Transformation)]
[Freedom Furnace: Heart Toad (Trait 1: Blood Sac)]
There is a new column for exercises on the panel information, which includes the herb-collecting and standing exercise.
"You got it right the first time you practiced?"
Li Qinglin was overjoyed.
Not only that, he also keenly noticed that his life span had increased by one year! From 57 to 58!
The average person in this world lives to around sixty years old.
If you practice martial arts, your essence and blood will be strong, which will naturally prolong your life and make you live longer.
Li Qinglin had been in poor health before, so he died shorter than ordinary people.
But now, first there is the nourishment of Qi and blood fed back by the bell toad, and then the practice of collecting herbs and standing still, the effect is so great that it directly extends life by one year! After a while, Li Qinglin recovered some strength and continued to stand still.
But perhaps due to the emptiness in my stomach, I could no longer find the feeling of tranquility. Instead, my toes even had cramps.
The class ended and the tenants gradually dispersed.
Li Qinglin, Donkey Face and Ruan Qi stayed behind and began to move the martial arts equipment, put the stone locks, five-finger stones, iron sand belts, etc. back in place, cleaned the training ground and flattened the sand.
There are also unspoken rules in the training ground, and students who register later are responsible for these trivial and physical work.
If you are not satisfied, then fight! Challenge! Challenge the superior! Donkey-face gritted his teeth, lifted the two stone locks with great effort, and moved to the corner step by step.
"A man should be ready to ride a horse! I don't know when we can use these weapons."
Ruan Qi leveled the sand under his feet and put one foot on the shovel: "Don't think about it for now. These weapons are only available in the training grounds. Only those students who can fight loudly and have the potential to become martial arts masters are qualified to use them."
"Let's practice martial arts and see if we can pass these physical tasks to others!"
In the T-shaped training ground, there were only three or four people who could deliver a loud punch, Miao Miao and the "enlightened" man were two of them.
Several people quickly cleaned the training ground and were exhausted.
As I walked out of the red gate, I heard a crisp voice coming from the side.
"Hey, you three, do you like cats?"
Then he saw Miao Miao standing behind the door for an unknown period of time, as if she had been waiting for Li Qinglin and the other two.
Faced with such an abrupt question, Li Qinglin's brain almost went crazy.
He felt vaguely that Miao Miao's voice was familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Glancing around, Li Qinglin suddenly noticed that Miao Miao's pants were stained with a few strands of yellow or white... cat hair? As if inspired, Li Qinglin immediately replied: "Of course! Cats are so cute! How can I not like them!"
Donkey Face and Ruan Qi also reacted immediately and nodded.
"Me too!"
"Me too!"
Miao Miao nodded in satisfaction after hearing this, and even stood on tiptoe and patted Li Qinglin's shoulder with some effort.
"Okay, okay, your name is... Oh, Li Qinglin? It seems that everyone loves raccoons. I will protect you from now on! If you don't understand anything about standing meditation, feel free to ask me!"
Miao Miao acted like a big sister, but then she changed the subject, "Recently, there's a thief who scares cats in the outer courtyard. A few days ago, he scared my golden tiger so much that it didn't eat for a whole day and is almost losing weight!
If you find anything, tell me immediately. I will reward you handsomely! Do you understand?"
"Understood! ×3"
After Miao Miao left, the three of them walked on the road, and Li Qinglin casually asked about Miao Miao's identity.
Donkey Face replied with a smile: "What? Are you interested in her?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I didn't, it's impossible."
Li Qinglin denied it one after another.
"She is the cat lover beside Third Grandma. Even though she is still practicing martial arts with us in the academy, she is a popular figure in front of Third Grandma.
The Third Grandma has said that if she becomes a martial artist, she will not only return her life deed and household registration, but also adopt her as her adopted daughter! By then, it will be a step to heaven!"
The donkey-faced informant explained slowly.
The third grandmother he mentioned is the third wife of the current Wang family. She was originally the daughter of a salt merchant in Feng County. She married into the Wang family in her early years and gave birth to only one son. Unfortunately, her son went out for a long journey more than ten years ago and no one knew whether he was alive or dead.
Missing her son so much that she became sick, and she became depressed. She no longer asked about the family affairs of the Wang family, stayed indoors, and instead fell in love with cats.
Dark Cloud Roaring Iron, Ruler Jade, Golden Tiger, Dark Cloud Stepping on Snow...
There are even several cat lovers who raise cats specifically for her.
As the saying goes, a person's status rises with his cat, so naturally Miao Miao's status also rises. Not to mention ordinary tenants, even the guards and martial artists have to speak to Miao Miao in a friendly manner.
"Then from today on, I, Li Qinglin, will be a cat lover."
Li Qinglin had no awareness of being a "cat-scare thief". Instead, he made up his mind at this moment.
The three of them walked through the corridor, left the training ground, and headed towards the kitchen.
"Well, I'm going to go back and change my clothes. You guys go first."
While walking on the road, Ruan Qi suddenly spoke. He glanced at Li Qinglin, bowed, and walked quickly towards his residence.
Looking at Ruan Qi's departing back, Li Qinglin had a deep gaze, but was pulled away by Donkey-faced Man.
"Go, go, go. If you go too slow there will only be some soup left!"
…
After finishing their meal, Li Qinglin and Donkey Face went to Master Ma again to get winter worms and special bait.
The types and numbers of winter insects are far fewer than those of autumn insects.
Li Qinglin received a pair of stove horses, three nine-scented insects, two purple-gold copper stoves, and a bag of charcoal for heating.
After bidding farewell to Master Ma and walking out of the hall, Donkey Face was a little puzzled, "It's strange, Ruan Qi is fine, but I didn't meet Zhang Gong and Feng Dao at the dinner. Where are they?"
While Donkey Face was speaking, he met Ruan Qi, Zhang Gong and Feng Dao, who were walking towards him, talking and laughing.
The atmosphere was a little awkward when they met face to face, and the smiles on Ruan Qi and the other two froze on their faces.
Ruan Qi and the other two exchanged a few words with Donkey Face and only said hello to Li Qinglin hastily, as if they were quite taboo about it, and went to collect the winter worms without saying a word.
