This feeling, Li Hu had never experienced before in his life.
Oh, no, to be precise, he had felt something similar. It was like... when he first started training his physique, after a few thousand meters of long-distance running, his legs would feel incredibly light and powerful during the initial period of rest, as if they weren't his own but were filled with endless explosive energy.
This feeling is actually what is known as the physical limit. Many people who understand physical training are well aware that when physical strength reaches a certain limit, it transcends, which is known as the physical bottleneck. If one can eventually adapt to this bottleneck and maintain the intensity of this state of exercise, over time, when people adapt to all behaviors under this intensity, they will adapt to this rhythm and habit.
When this intensity of physique becomes a norm, then the next bottleneck can be found, and one can break through it time and time again, surpassing oneself and becoming increasingly powerful.
Just now, Li Hu suddenly felt an unusual sensation in his waist, which instantly filled his body with strength, a very unfamiliar but indeed powerful force originating from within himself.
Accompanied by this force, Li Hu charged at his opponent like a tiger, feeling that his arms and legs, even, could break a piece of raw iron with a single strike!
Relying on this bull-like strength, Li Hu instantly reached his opponent. Then, with his waist taut, he delivered a fierce punch to the guy's face. Seeing Li Hu's fierce attack, the guy was startled and hastily retreated. However, he didn't give him the chance to react. Due to the overwhelming power of the punch, Li Hu couldn't resist the momentum and his entire body leaned forward and downward.
He thought he would lose his balance, but with his waist as the axis, his abdominal strength was so powerful that it was almost abnormal. With a swift movement, he pressed one hand on the ground, flipped his body, and delivered a backward kick, like a scorpion's tail, straight at the guy's forehead!
"Bang!!!"
The man on the opposite side had no way to avoid it and could only quickly raise his hands, crossing his arms to block. The dull sound made his ears ring!
"Hisss!—"
In pain, the guy felt his arm bones almost crack and hastily retreated!
And Li Hu pressed his advantage!
The guy was clearly frightened by Li Hu's sudden and powerful strength, losing the will to fight. He quickly dodged and retreated down the corner alley, using a few passersby to shield himself, then fled as fast as he could!
"Huh?! Want to run?! Not that easy!?" Li Hu, enjoying the fight, instinctively wanted to chase after him.
"Brother Li!"
Chu Nan stopped him in time.
Hearing Chu Nan's call, Li Hu immediately stopped, turned around, and said to Chu Nan, "Chu Nan, how will you know who is watching you if I don't catch him?"
Chu Nan said, "No need to chase, Brother Li!—There are too many people here, don't hurt the innocent!"
This is a law-based society, a modern city, not like the old days! No matter how skilled in martial arts, it's not as clean and efficient as law enforcement with guns. More importantly... Chu Nan knew very well that Li Hu absolutely couldn't catch that guy.
Because Chu Nan had just used a fine silver needle to stimulate the Dai Mai acupoint on Li Hu's waist, cleverly activating a series of related acupoints, stimulating the blood and qi, and thus boosting his fighting spirit and physical strength in a short time.
The Dai Mai is one of the eight extraordinary meridians in the human body. These extraordinary meridians are often unique and unconventional acupoints. Chu Nan's short-term stimulation only gave Li Hu a moment of explosive power. After this burst of energy, the entire body would quickly fall into a state of exhaustion.
In simple terms, Chu Nan had temporarily activated one of the eight extraordinary meridians in Li Hu's body. As the ancient saying goes, when the eight extraordinary meridians are unblocked, one becomes a powerful martial arts expert. This is not baseless. From the brief but powerful strength Li Hu displayed, it can be seen.
"Really a pity, I was... I... Uh, I..."
With a bitter smile, Li Hu said a sentence to Chu Nan, then suddenly felt dizzy, his body drained of strength. He immediately leaned against the wall, and Chu Nan hurriedly went to support him.
"Brother Li, are you okay?"
"Uh... I'm fine..." Li Hu was a bit puzzled, then lightly shook his head, "Maybe I'm just too tired these past two days. Plus, the intense fight just now, I'm a bit fatigued..."
"Then... shall we go back and rest?"
"No need, aren't you going to buy a computer? I'm just a bit uncomfortable. Let's find an ice shop and rest a bit."
Chu Nan, of course, knew why Li Hu was in this state. A bit of rest would do, so he nodded, and the two went to an ice shop to have some ice, then spent the afternoon shopping at the electronics market.
There was no way around it; Chu Nan was completely clueless about this stuff. He bought many accessories, like speakers, a professional gaming keyboard and mouse, and anything recommended. After all, he had nearly 100,000 yuan in his pocket, just a month's salary, and Chu Nan really wasn't short of money.
He finally got to experience the life of a "rich person."
Cough.
That's how Chu Nan completed his plans for the day.
And along the way, Li Hu didn't ask Chu Nan about anything else. — Because Li Hu was already certain that Chu Nan's identity was far from simple, and Beijing was a place where many powerful people were hidden. He was wise enough not to discuss sensitive topics, as if nothing had happened today.
People like Chu Nan, who are deliberately low-key but actually have a strong background, are not many, but Li Hu had been fortunate enough to meet a few.
"Brother Li, thank you for your trouble today."
"Hehe, don't be so formal. By the way, your military training is almost over. Keep my contact information. If you have any trouble in Beijing in the future, just call me. As long as I can help, I will definitely solve it for you!"
...
Chu Nan realized today that he had really good relationships!
Zhao Zihong and Li Hu, these two guys from completely different fields, had become his friends, which made Chu Nan genuinely happy.
However...
Just as Chu Nan was happily opening his new computer, logging into QQ, and preparing to apply for his own account, the door to his house was suddenly knocked on.
"Huh?"
Chu Nan was puzzled... At this time, who could be looking for me?
