Tang Ning and everyone gathered at the foot of the mountain. After a while, Xi Cao and Qin Luo walked over side by side.

Everyone was a little surprised, because Qin Luo had never been here before, and they didn't know why he was here today.

"Everyone should know me. Some of you may have forgotten. Let me introduce you again. My name is Qin Luo, and I am your chief instructor. I am here to announce something to you. From now on, you are part of the caravan.

I have become a member, and I will start a new job from now on." After Qin Luo said this, everyone below looked happy, whispering to each other.

"Have a day off today and start new homework tomorrow." Xi Tiao took a step forward and said.

Everyone was even more happy. They had been doing homework every day since they came here. They never thought that they could have a good rest today.

Tangning returned to the room, knocked on the door and said: "Ruru, Ruru"

Soon, footsteps sounded and the door opened.

Tangning took her hand and lay on the bed.

Liu Ruhan got into his arms and looked at him with big watery eyes.

Tang Ning hugged her and said, "Instructor Xi just said that we have a day off today. I want to go to the town and buy some clothes for you, okay?"

In fact, a year ago, Tangning had wanted to go to the town to buy some clothes for her, but she never had the time.

Now Liu Ruhan no longer does the cleaning and shopping, but follows an uncle to keep accounts every day. The uncle's wife liked her very much, so she found someone to intercede and transferred her to learn accounting.

The two of them have saved several taels of silver in the past few months. Tang Ning has a salary of one tael of silver every month, which is all given to her to take care of.

Liu Ruhan gestured for a while.

"You want to go too! Okay then! You can go and talk to Uncle Min later and ask for leave."

"What? Oh, yes! We went to that place after all."

"It's boring! I just practice Gu Family Boxing. I don't know any other martial arts. My boxing skills are so good now that even Cheng Qian is no match for me." It was still early in the morning, so Tang Ning was talking to her.

talk.

Liu Ruhan hugged him tightly with both hands, rubbing her cheek against his gently, and occasionally kissed him on the cheek.

Tang Ning had told her about the situation in the dream before. Liu Ruhan was quite worried at first, but then she gradually felt relieved when she saw nothing unusual.

After so many days of "sleepwalking", Tang Ning also figured out some rules.

He found that the time of each sleepwalking was between midnight and ten o'clock, about three hours, and the strange thing was that he would also fall asleep in that dream.

Sometimes when he was tired from practicing boxing, he would lie down and take a nap. He didn't know how long he slept, but his energy would be fully restored every time he woke up.

Liu Ruhan rubbed her face against his, listened to his words, turned her head slightly and kissed him again on the cheek.

She didn't care what his strange dreams were! As long as he was okay.

She also didn't want to think about distant things like the Luoyun Mountains that he often talked about, as long as the two of them were together every day like now.

A few years later, when the two got married, she still served him like this every day, warming his bed, fetching water for washing, and cooking for him.

As long as these are enough...

The sky is crisp, the sun is shining brightly, and there are no clouds in the sky.

Tang Ning held Liu Ruhan's little hand and walked on the street, looking here and there.

There are ever-changing facial makeup, flexible shadow puppets, kites of different colors, candied haws on a string, as well as the shouts of the buskers and the claps of the storytellers.

The two of them had never walked around the town so leisurely before, and they just found everything very interesting.

I want to see everything, buy something and have a bite of everything.

The two of them walked around for a long time and didn't come back until dark. They gained a lot. In addition to buying two new clothes for Liu Ruhan, they also bought a lot of interesting gadgets.

Later in the evening, Gu Chengqian came over: "Where have you been today! I finally had a day off and I wanted to go play with you."

"I went to town to do some shopping."

"Oh, let's go! I'll go practice boxing with you. I thought of a move last night that can increase the power of boxing." Gu Chengqian was eager to try it.

Every night, Tang Ning practiced boxing with him. In fact, her boxing skills were already superior to his, but she just accepted his teachings and felt guilty, so she deliberately lost one and a half moves to him every time.

"Forget it for today! I have to start new homework tomorrow and want to have a good night's rest," Tang Ning said.

"No! I've been thinking about this move for a long time. Come with me and try it."

"Okay!" Tangning couldn't refuse, so she went out to practice boxing with him.

The next day, everyone came to the foot of the mountain. After waiting for a while, Xi Tiao came over and said, "You are now a member of the caravan. Today you will start a new lesson and practice the introductory martial arts of the caravan, Five Elements Boxing."

"Watch carefully, I will demonstrate it once, and then practice with me."

After Xi Tiao finished speaking, he started to move. His speed was so fast that everyone could barely see clearly. A set of punches was extremely elegant and agile, like flowing clouds and flowing water.

"This is the Crane Xing Quan among the Five Elements Quan. It emphasizes moving the heart at will and letting nature take its course."

"Today I will practice Crane Fist first, now follow me and start."

Xi Ting punched and kicked him, and everyone imitated him, hitting him five times in a row before he stopped.

"You can practice by yourself according to the movements just now."

"This pose is wrong. It's not about using the wrist, it's about using the whole arm."

"This style should be slightly curved when executed."

"When you take off and land, your left leg should land first and your body should lean forward."

"The turning movement should be quick, half-turn and then hit, not full turn."

Xi Tiao patrolled around, constantly correcting everyone's wrong actions.

I practiced all morning, had a meal at noon, rested for an hour, and continued in the afternoon.

At night I practiced boxing with Gu Chengqian, then fell asleep and entered that dream.

Time flew by, and three or four months passed in the blink of an eye. Tangning practiced seriously day after day.

On this day, before the sky turned white, Tang Ning woke up from her dream and stared at the roof motionless.

Recently, he has felt something strange in his body, as if something is always swimming inside his body.

He didn't know if it was the sequelae of that strange dream, or if there was something wrong with his practice. He didn't dare to tell anyone, and even hid it from Liu Ruhan, lest she find out and worry.

At first, he thought it was an illusion. The thing came and went and he wasn't quite sure, but in the past few days, he had really felt it.

There was indeed something moving inside his body, something warm, flowing over and over from the top of his head to the soles of his feet.

He decided to ask Xi Tiao today to see if there was any problem with his practice. If it was not a problem with his practice, then he could be sure that it was caused by the dream.

After finishing her homework and eating in the morning, Tangning came to the door of Xi Tiao's room. After hesitating for a while, he mustered up the courage to knock on the door.

The door opened, and Xi Tiao stood inside the door looking at him with a confused expression: "It's you! Is something wrong?"

"Yes." Tangning nodded.

"Come in and talk!" Xi Tiao looked at him and looked worried, as if something really happened.

Tang Ning walked in and discovered that Qin Luo was also there, along with a bearded man.

"What's wrong? Let's talk about it now!" Xi Tiao closed the door and Qin Luo and the bearded man both looked at him.

"I haven't been feeling well these past few days. I always feel like something is moving inside my body, so I wanted to ask if there is something wrong with my practice."

"There is something. It's not because I've eaten it up, but it's not bad! It shouldn't be caused by practicing Qigong." Qin Luo said.

"I didn't eat anything else," Tangning whispered.

"Let me check if you've caught a cold." The bearded man stood up and grabbed Tangning's wrist with one hand, placing his middle finger on his wrist.

Tang Ning let him do whatever he wanted.

"Huh!" The bearded man put his fingers on his wrist and uttered a surprised sound. He glanced at him and frowned. After a while, he closed his eyes again, his brows getting tighter and tighter, and his expression became solemn.

"What's wrong?" Xi Tiao asked.

The bearded man didn't answer, and it took him a while to open his eyes. The boss' eyes were wide open, with a look of disbelief on his face, looking at him like he was looking at a monster.

"What's wrong?" Qin Luo was also very curious.

The bearded man turned to the two of them and spit out two words: "Internal strength."

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were shocked.

"Impossible." The two said in unison.

Qin Luo stepped forward and held Tang Ning's left wrist, while Xi Tiao held Tang Ning's right wrist.

After a while, the two let go of their hands, and the three of them looked at each other with shock on their faces.

"It is indeed internal force. Because I don't know how to control it, the internal force collides in the body, causing the illusion of body expansion." Qin Luo was the first to say.

"How does he usually behave?" the bearded man asked.

"When I first came here, I had no skills at all, but my talent was very high. I only had some success in the Five Elements Boxing in March and April."

"That shouldn't be the case. It takes only a few months to gather internal strength. It's really unheard of."

"Have you encountered anything weird recently? Or weird people? Or eaten weird things?" Qin Luo looked at him and asked
