Chapter 174 Seven Scattering Palms
"I don't know how many times, maybe dozens of times." Zhou Wen replied.
"We've tried so many times but still haven't been able to pull it up. Why don't you think of other ways?" Wang Mingyuan looked at Zhou Wen with interest and asked.
"I just want to try it out." Zhou Wen said.
Wang Mingyuan laughed and said, "You are quite interesting. Tell me how you three pulled the chain the first time you did it."
Wang Mingyuan's subsequent words were obviously directed at Hui Haifeng and the other three people.
Hui Haifeng was the first to speak up: "When I was pulling the chain, I felt it was too cold, so I sped up and pulled it up before my hands froze."
Seeing Wang Mingyuan's gaze on him, Jiang Yan held up the book in his hand and said, "I also felt that it was too cold under the chain, so I slowed down. After the chain below had been out of the cold fog for a while, the temperature would naturally not be so low. I slowly pulled the chain up."
Zhong Ziya curled her lips after hearing this, but said nothing.
Wang Mingyuan said, "Ziya was the most unruly. When he felt he couldn't pull it up, he directly used his energy skills to pull the chain up."
"Come to think of it, among the five students who studied with me, three pulled the chain up on the first try, and two failed. However, you are the first one who failed to pull it up after trying so many times." Wang Mingyuan looked at Zhou Wen and smiled.
"Who is the other one who was not pulled up?" Zhou Wen asked curiously.
"One of your seniors has already graduated." Wang Mingyuan said lightly, and then did not mention it again. He continued to say to Zhou Wen: "The rule is that newcomers are allowed to rest only after they pull the chain up."
"Okay." Zhou Wen walked towards Longjing again, reached out and grabbed the chain, pulling it up again.
However, Zhou Wen did not seem to learn his lesson, nor did he gain the experience of his seniors. He still pulled at the same pace as before, but still failed to pull the chain up.
Wang Mingyuan just smiled and ignored him. He took off his winter clothes and changed into light clothes. Then he put on an apron, took out vegetables and other things, and started cooking.
Soon, the meal was ready. There wasn't much to it, and it was rather light. It was mostly vegetarian, with the only meat dish being boiled eggs.
Several students gathered around the table to eat. Zhou Wen put down the chain and came over, not caring about the rules.
Wang Mingyuan didn't say anything. He also took a set of bowls and chopsticks and gave them to Zhou Wen. He served each of them a bowl of porridge and an egg.
After dinner, Zhou Wen continued to pull the chain, while Wang Mingyuan, Hui Haifeng and others also did their own things. Apart from the necessary communication, no one spoke much.
Zhou Wen originally came here to learn palm techniques, but he became the one pulling the iron chain. He ate and slept as usual. It was not until noon of the next day that Zhou Wen finally pulled up the nearly 200-meter-long iron chain.
When the end of the chain was pulled out, Zhou Wen was stunned.
At first glance, the end of the chain looks like a giant fishhook, but if you look closely you will find that it is not a fishhook, but the shape of an anchor.
Moreover, Zhou Wen had seen this type of anchor twice, once in the Xiyuan Dimension Store and once on the case of the classic pocket watch.
However, there is no pattern of a woman's profile on this anchor, and the barb is sharpened, making it look like it is intended to be used as a hook.
Zhou Wen reached out and touched the side of the anchor, and found traces of polishing, and couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Dragons are very greedy species, especially when it comes to appetite." Wang Mingyuan said as he brought over a bag of companion eggs and fixed them all on the hooks with ropes.
"Put it down. I hope there will be a harvest next time." Wang Mingyuan said as he looked at the bottomless Longjing tea after he had finished everything.
Zhou Wen put the chain back down. After finishing all the work, he came to Wang Mingyuan and asked, "Teacher, is there anything else I can do?"
"From now on you will be responsible for pulling the chains, and other things depend on your own interests. I heard from Xiaofei that you want to learn palm techniques?" Wang Mingyuan said gently.
"Yes." Zhou Wen nodded.
"Most practitioners nowadays practice weapons. Even if they practice physical skills, most of them practice punches and kicks, and only a few practice palms and fingers. The main boxing and kicking techniques are easy to learn but difficult to master, while palms and fingers are difficult to learn but easy to master. There is no difference between the two, and they are the same when practiced to the extreme. It's just that most people like to start with the simple ones, so boxing and kicking techniques are so popular in modern times, while palms and fingers are too difficult to learn, so few people practice them." Wang Mingyuan said thoughtfully.
"If I want to practice palm techniques, how should I get started?" Although Zhou Wen knows the Ash Palm, it is only a way to use strength, not a technique. What Zhou Wen wants to learn now is the technique.
"That depends on what kind of palm technique you want to practice. The fist is outside and the palm is inside. Generally, the fist technique uses force from the outside to the inside, while the palm technique attacks directly inside. There was an old saying in the past, it is better to take ten punches than one palm, which means that the palm force will directly hurt the internal organs, which will cause more serious damage to the body. However, it is too difficult to get started with internal palm techniques, and it requires long-term hard training. If you only want to learn palm techniques, I have several good palm techniques here, and it is relatively easy to get started. There are my annotations on them, and you can practice according to the annotations." Wang Mingyuan said, taking out a diary and handing it to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen opened it and saw that it was full of palm techniques, all handwritten, with detailed annotations in many places, which made it clear to understand at a glance.
Wang Mingyuan's handwriting is beautiful and elegant, which is indeed a rare and good handwriting. Even though Zhou Wen does not understand calligraphy, he thinks that the handwriting is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
"Thank you, Master. I will take a look at these palm techniques first and ask you for the rest later." Zhou Wen came here just for the palm techniques, and this diary was like a treasure to him.
Wang Mingyuan didn't say much and went back to his own research.
Zhou Wen lived in the laboratory and basically pulled the chain once a day. There were obviously many companion eggs hanging on it, but when he pulled it up, those companion eggs were gone. This happened every time.
This made Zhou Wen curious, and he wanted to use the mobile game to enter Longjing to find out what was going on. However, he had been studying the palm techniques that Wang Mingyuan had given him recently, so he didn't deliberately enter the game.
The diary contains a total of seven palm techniques. Although the moves are different, they are basically the same. Only some subtle features were excerpted by Wang Mingyuan.
One move is excerpted from each palm technique, and there are seven moves in total. These seven moves are called Seven Scattered Palms by Wang Mingyuan. Each move is very clever and has a completely different style.
