Chapter 793

~15 min read 2,803 words

The collapse of the bed frame was, of course, not because Miss Luo Quan farted.

Fairies don't fart.

This was just the first Gate of Opening; she wasn't very skilled at controlling it, which led to some Qi leakage, causing the bed frame to collapse.

Fortunately, the force wasn't particularly great; only the bed collapsed, and there was no problem with the floor.

If the floor had also collapsed, the commotion would have been too big, and the whole family would probably have had to come out to see what happened to her.

After successfully breaking through the Gate of Opening, Miss Luo Quan was in a very good mood.

She didn't expect to enter the door in just one day. Calculated this way, wouldn't she be fully proficient after one more gate?

Of course, this is the most idealized situation. The subsequent gates will probably become increasingly difficult, and the time required for the impact will increase exponentially, so Miss Luo Quan needs to be mentally prepared for a long-term process.

In addition, she couldn't sleep in her room tonight because her 2.5-meter bed had collapsed into two pieces.

Carrying her bedding, Miss Luo Quan ran to Wen Xia's room next door.

It just so happened that Wen Xia wasn't home, so she borrowed her bed for a night.

Waking up the next day, Miss Luo Quan went downstairs with sleepy eyes.

Because she had been practicing until nearly three o'clock last night, plus the side effects after opening the Eight Inner Gates, she only fell asleep after an hour.

She woke up naturally before ten in the morning and couldn't fall back asleep, so she had to get up.

Fortunately, it was only an occasional late night, and the lack of sleep didn't make her particularly listless or give her dark circles.

"Eh, Sis, why did you come out of Wen Xia's room?" Gao Liang had just woken up and asked curiously.

Miss Luo Quan explained: "The bed collapsed, so I went to Wen Xia's room to sleep for the night."

"The bed collapsed?" Aunt Luo Ni and Miya in the living room looked over, their faces showing surprise.

Gao Liang laughed: "Sis, how heavy are you to have slept the bed into collapsing?"

"Itching for a beating, are you?" Miss Luo Quan clenched her right hand, making a crackling sound.

"Hehe, just joking with you, look at you." Gao Liang hurriedly ran down the stairs, taking the opportunity to tease his sister.

"If the bed collapsed, we have to change it." Aunt Luo Ni said while opening her phone, muttering: "First time seeing someone sleep a bed into collapsing. The quality inspection of this villa is unqualified; we have to find them!"

Listening to her tone, Aunt Luo Ni intended to find the property management to ask how to solve it.

After all, the house had been bought for less than two years, and the furniture in the house was all matching. How could there be problems so quickly with normal use? It must be a quality issue.

"Forget it, don't bother them for a small matter. Just change it to a new one; it won't cost much money." Miss Luo Quan stopped her mother's actions.

Mainly because the bed collapsed because of her, and there was obvious external impact. One check and they would know. If someone came to see it, they definitely wouldn't admit it.

So in order not to cause extra trouble, Miss Luo Quan planned to change it herself; it was only two thousand something.

Seeing her daughter say this, Aunt Luo Ni didn't insist.

Gao Liang advised: "This time we have to buy a sturdy one."

"Looking for a beating!" Miss Luo Quan flew a kick over, but Gao Liang twisted his butt and dodged it.

Miss Luo Quan raised an eyebrow: "Yo ho, this is practicing the Ultra Instinct."

"This is a case of long illness making a good doctor." Gao Liang laughed proudly.

Mainly because he knew his sister's personality too well; if he teased her, he would definitely be beaten. He knew how to dodge just by looking at the direction of her leg.

Speaking of which, does this count as a talent for learning martial arts?

Of course, these are just Gao Liang's wishful thoughts.

In fact, he could dodge it entirely because Miss Luo Quan wasn't serious; her speed and strength were at a very casual level.

If she were serious, he would have been kicked into the wall and become a calendar by now.

And Gao Liang probably knew this, which is why he dared to be so reckless.

However, as Gao Liang practices martial arts in the future and becomes more resistant to hits, Miss Luo Quan will adjust the strength of her kicks accordingly.

If this kid is still as cheeky as he is now, she will let him know what the combat power of the world's number one female boxer is.

After Miss Luo Quan placed the order, someone soon came to the house to replace her with a new bed.

The old bed was broken into two pieces and basically had no value for reuse, so she just let the staff take it away and dispose of it.

After this lesson, she couldn't practice the Eight Inner Gates on the bed anymore, and not even on the second floor.

Just the first Gate of Opening has such a great impact; what about the subsequent Gate of Rest, Gate of Life, and Gate of Pain?

Wouldn't that shake the whole floor and ceiling into collapsing?

So the courtyard became the only choice. In the future, she would pull a yoga mat and practice in the courtyard, and by the way, she could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and take the essence of the sun and moon.

However, before she could move the training ground to the courtyard, she was beaten to it by Gao Liang.

This kid's interest in practicing martial arts is exceptionally high now; he ran to the courtyard to practice horse stance after breakfast.

For a martial artist, the lower body is the most important.

Only with roots under your feet can you stand firmly and exert force.

If the lower body is unstable, all moves and strength are rootless duckweed, and the person will be soft and have no combat power.

Therefore, if you want to enter the door, horse stance is the foundation of foundations.

Compared to the plank in fitness, horse stance is actually a training posture that can mobilize the muscles of the whole body.

And wanting to do it standardly is even more difficult than a plank.

Because a plank has four support points, with hands and feet sharing the pressure of the body.

And horse stance only has two feet as support points, and the knees and thighs must be parallel to the ground, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty.

So for ordinary people doing a plank, isn't it not particularly difficult to persist for a minute or two?

But if it's horse stance, half a minute is probably a bit hard to handle.

Once the time is long, that kind of soreness is truly enough to make people cry.

Anyway, in Miss Luo Quan's memory, horse stance has always been one of the primary school teachers' favorite corporal punishments, with a status comparable to hitting palms and doing squats.

Miss Luo Quan had the good fortune to experience both back then, and more than once; she was a problem student who left a deep impression on the teachers.

As for the United States or the UK, not many teachers dare to treat students like this.

After corporal punishment in the morning, tell the parents in the evening, and tomorrow you'll be waiting to be escorted to the police station. If the child is found to have any problems, it's definitely a felony and jail time is inevitable.

Of course, with the progress of the times, corporal punishment of students in China has gradually become an educational method not accepted by current students' parents. If it's too much, teachers will also be complained about or even lose their jobs.

Regarding this change, Miss Luo Quan doesn't know if it's good or bad.

If she has children in the future, she will definitely still use communication and education at first.

But if they are really stubborn and disobedient, she will probably still have to use the ancestors' method, which is hitting.

After all, good people come from under the golden stick. She was also like that back then, using a fly swatter to hit the butt, which can help them remember and won't cause any problems.

While lost in thought, Gao Liang had already been in horse stance in the courtyard for five minutes.

As a high-quality male who often does high-intensity fitness, Gao Liang's physical fitness is actually quite good.

Before filming Forrest Gump, in order to create the feeling of the American dream, he would increase his muscle mass every day and soak in the gym crazily.

Although very tired, the result was to build a muscular body that made all American girls crazy.

Time magazine once said that Gao Liang's eight-pack abs are the body of the American dream and his sexiest part.

Of course, Miya might have a different opinion on this.

In short, Gao Liang's physical fitness is quite good.

So for the first time in horse stance, he persisted for quite a long time.

But that was only five minutes. Once the time was long, he felt his lower limbs sore and swollen, and his upper body couldn't maintain straightness, and his whole body began to tremble.

Finally, at the sixth minute, his legs went soft, and he sat directly on the ground, breathing heavily.

"That's it?" Miss Luo Quan held a bag of potato chips, moved a stool to the courtyard, crossed her legs, and said with a chuckle.

Gao Liang glared at his sister: "Didn't you say that horse stance should be gradual? It's my first time, six minutes should be pretty good."

"Keep working hard, young man. You are still far behind. If it were me, I wouldn't even blink for half an hour."

Miss Luo Quan wasn't bragging about this; her current physical fitness is enough to do it for so long, and she could even persist for longer.

And Gao Liang also knew that what his sister said was probably true, so he didn't question it, just stood up shakily, sat on the chair, and began to rub his two thighs.

There will be a considerable amount of lactic acid in the muscles after strenuous exercise. He didn't exercise much while recording the show some time ago, and now that he has suddenly increased his exercise volume, he will probably be in pain for a few days.

However, Gao Liang has a very good mentality. After all, he is also a person who insists on fitness, so he can still endure this bit of hardship.

And this kind of pain is actually addictive.

This is also the reason why many people can't stop the more they exercise.

Of course, practicing martial arts must be done in moderation; practicing too much can easily hurt the body.

This is also the reason why Miss Luo Quan went to the courtyard to watch her brother; she was afraid that he would be too desperate, wouldn't know how to rest, and would hurt himself.

Currently, this kid is quite smart and doesn't need her to worry too much.

Taking advantage of Gao Liang's rest, Miss Luo Quan lowered her head to play with her phone, while Xiaoyu and Dahei slept at her feet.

New Year's Day has passed, and the Spring Festival is not far away. In a month or so, many places have already started to prepare New Year's goods, and the Spring Festival Gala is also being prepared in full swing.

And Miss Luo Quan's TV series has also officially started casting.

The name of the new TV series is "The Outcast," a modern traditional fantasy action TV series in China.

It has many elements, and it is a modern urban fantasy that almost no one has tried before.

There was a joke before that it is not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the country.

So urban and fantasy are basically two themes that cannot be integrated at all, and even if they are filmed, it is difficult to pass the review.

The specific reasons cannot be detailed, anyway, it is best not to film them.

However, Miss Luo Quan felt that she could still have some privileges in this regard. She also probed Director He before to ask if it could be done.

Perhaps it was because "Farewell My Concubine" won a big award abroad, which earned her a lot of impression points.

Or perhaps her usual performance was too excellent, making it hard for the superiors to refuse.

So Director He gave her a positive answer, which is that it can be filmed, but it is best not to have supernatural elements.

It is a joke that it is not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the country, but it is true that ghosts are not allowed.

In the last century, ghost movies in Hong Kong were quite prosperous, and many classic horror movies were filmed.

However, due to the changes of the times, ghosts are no longer allowed.

Current ghost movies, no matter how supernatural the plot is in the middle, will turn into human disasters at the end.

Either someone is deliberately pretending to be a god or a ghost, which is considered to have put in some effort to round out the plot.

And some are simply the protagonist's imagination, and all the previous plots are fake.

So, can ghost movies in this environment be watched?

Can't watch them, don't have this ability, you know, and many have become material for UP hosts to complain about.

The dignified Chinese ghost movie turned out to be like a comedy movie, which itself is very comedic.

And after receiving this reminder, Miss Luo Quan thought about the original work of "The Outcast," and there didn't seem to be many about the supernatural.

Except for the corpse driver at the beginning, there shouldn't be any more.

And the corpse driver is actually the same type as the zombie movies that were popular in the last century, which can be regarded as zombies.

Since Resident Evil can be shown in China, zombies shouldn't be a problem.

As for the others, it belongs to promoting the diverse traditional culture of China, especially Taoism, which is quite educational and popularizing.

After the TV series is filmed, the number of people traveling to Long Hushan and Mount Wudang will probably skyrocket.

Thinking of this, Miss Luo Quan is thinking about whether to collect some martial arts secrets or magic treasures from these Taoist priests as advertising fees.

However, those monks probably won't agree, so it's better to forget about it.

After the news of "The Outcast" came out, it soon caused a lot of discussion.

When Miss Luo Quan was livestreaming before, she said this would be a youth hot-blooded fighting TV series.

Now she added another sentence in the dynamic: This is actually also an elderly hot-blooded fighting TV series.

After all, those old people in "The Outcast" are all portrayed quite brilliantly.

Especially the combat ceiling, the Old Heavenly Master. After his scenes are broadcast, he will probably gain a lot of popularity soon.

As for another popular character, Bao'er, she is a typical three-nothing girl.

However, because she needs to speak the Shuzhou dialect, it can only fall on Wen Xia, letting her play Bao'er.

I have to talk to her about the play later and let her perform that feeling of "smart as hell."

As for the protagonist Zhang Chulan, this is a very complex character. Currently, she doesn't have a very good candidate, and she needs to be very careful in choosing for a while.

In addition, this TV series will have a lot of special effects and martial arts scenes, so most actors need to have a foundation in martial arts, otherwise many actions will not look good.

So this role is really not as easy to choose as imagined, and it's hard to say if it can be done within two months.

However, China is very big, and the least lacking is people. As long as you are willing to spend time and money, you can always find them.

Currently, Miss Luo Quan is not in a hurry. After the New Year, she will focus on dealing with these things related to the TV series.
