Chen Che hid under the quilt and concentrated on learning the breathing method.
Under high pressure, he mastered this introductory technique in just half an hour.
Just when he was satisfied and ready to continue practicing, a gust of wind blew by and the quilt was suddenly lifted open.
Looking at Wang Rou with tears in her eyes and a complicated expression, Chen Che was a little confused for a moment.
After he came to his senses, he quickly explained: "Mom, I am practicing!"
However, Wang Rou didn't believe his words at all and choked up:
"Che'er, let's go see the doctor. I know you're afraid of worrying about your mother, but this disease always needs to be treated, and delaying it is not an option.
Don't be afraid, Mom still has some money, so we can afford medical treatment.
As for Liu Agou, I don’t believe he dares to do anything to our mother-in-law in broad daylight!"
"No...I'm really not sick!"
Chen Ze defended himself again.
He knew only too well how much money the family had left.
I can barely afford to buy some medicine, but if I go to see a doctor, isn't that a waste of money?
You are already poor enough, how can you afford to waste it?
"Stop talking...silly boy."
Wang Rou's tears couldn't stop falling.
Chen Che was completely speechless and could only quickly turn off the high-pressure state, and then walked back and forth in the small room several times.
"Look, I'm fine! I just have a little cough!"
In fact, it may be because of the breathing method that after turning off the high-pressure state, not only did he not have any problems at all, but he felt extremely relaxed.
This made him more and more eager for martial arts.
Since there is such extraordinary power as evil spirits in this world, if you practice martial arts to a high level, you might also be able to gain extraordinary power.
"Che'er..."
Wang Rou still didn't believe it.
Chen Che was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks, wishing he could rip out his heart and lungs.
"Mom, I am a person who has been through the gate of hell. How can I not know that my life is important?
Don't worry, I'm really fine!
The reason why I hid under the quilt was because I was afraid that if you thought too much, I didn’t expect that... I would mess it up instead."
Having said this, he scratched his head.
Wang Rou saw that Chen Che had a sincere face and looked quite good, so she confirmed again and again: "Is everything okay?"
Gulu gulu...
Before Chen Che could answer, his stomach growled first.
Hearing this, Wang Rou wiped her tears and said, "Mom, go cook for you first."
After saying that, she turned around and walked towards the kitchen. Seeing this, Chen Che couldn't help but remind him: "Mom, do more..."
In these troubled times, food is very precious.
With family conditions like the Chen family's, cooking is usually only six to seven cents full.
But Chen Che feels very hungry now...
very hungry!
He knew very well that this was because he had activated the breathing method.
The reason why the breathing method can quickly improve physical fitness is ultimately because in this breathing state, the energy in the human body will be consumed faster, as if exercising continuously.
For ordinary people who have just started breathing and breathing, the effect may not be that obvious.
But when he used the breathing method under high pressure, the effect was immediate.
It is no exaggeration to say that when these two states are superimposed, every time he coughs, he will become hungrier, and at the same time, his physical condition will also become stronger.
Chen Che touched his stomach, his expression a little tangled.
Turning on the high-pressure state can improve efficiency, but at the same time, consumption also increases by an unknown number of times.
Under normal circumstances, he needs to eat three meals a day.
If he was in a high-pressure state for a whole day, he would have to eat at least thirty meals...
…
"Che'er, come and eat!"
Two quarters of an hour later, Wang Rou's call came from outside.
Chen Che couldn't wait to walk out after hearing this.
There are several plates on the wooden table in the kitchen.
In addition to a plate of freshly fried peanuts and a plate of daily pickles, there was also a bowl of broth. There was a layer of oil floating on the broth, and about four or five pieces of fat and thin pork settled underneath.
Seeing the broth, Chen Che swallowed.
In his previous life, he wouldn't have bothered to take a look at the broth cooked like this, but now... he felt like he could eat three big bowls.
Then he turned his attention to the pot again.
What's cooking in the pot is not porridge, but rice. It looks like there are at least four bowls of it.
"Are you hungry? Mom will serve you some food."
When Wang Rou saw her son's attitude, she felt a lot more relaxed.
This at least shows that my son's illness is not serious.
After Chen Che took the rice bowl handed over by Wang Rou, he first picked up a piece of meat and put it into Wang Rou's bowl, and then started to eat.
Although he was very hungry, he ate very restrainedly.
The coughing before had already frightened his mother, and he really didn't want to frighten the poor woman anymore.
After eating a bowl of rice mixed with broth, Chen Che said intentionally or unintentionally while serving the rice: "Mom, I was too weak before. Recently, I want to take good care of my body. The amount of food may be bigger than before.
"Master, don't be offended."
"That's the best thing you can think of."
At this point, Wang Rou hesitated to speak. After hesitating again and again, she finally spoke out.
"Che'er, don't think about your father. Let's live a good life from now on..."
"Um……"
Chen Che reluctantly agreed.
Although he had already forgotten about the father he had never met, he still had to pretend.
…
The meal lasted a full two-quarters of an hour, and in the end there were only a few empty plates left on the table.
But there was half a bowl of rice left in the pot.
It's not that Chen Che can't eat anymore, but he doesn't want his mother to think that he's not full yet.
After finishing the meal, Chen Che took the initiative to wash the dishes.
It was getting dark now.
At this time in the past, he should have gone to school.
But now it is impossible for him to study.
Returning to his room, Chen Che occasionally turned on the high-pressure state, coughed twice, and accelerated the breathing method. However, even in this way, the heat in his body was still consumed very quickly.
When it got completely dark, he felt faintly hungry again.
Lying on the bed, Chen Che looked at the wooden beams silently.
A lot of things happened today, and he had to plan it carefully.
First of all, the Devouring Element Bottle requires a large amount of medicinal materials to activate the high-pressure state.
Secondly, when practicing martial arts in a high-pressure state, his appetite will become very alarming.
Finally, he needs a quiet cultivation environment.
