In the next period of time, Lin Yan immersed himself in studying the "The Art of Cutting". When he encountered something he didn't understand, he started to record it, and then asked Feng Lao to answer the questions the next day, and the other party did not hesitate to give him some advice. .
After going back and forth, the old and the young gradually became familiar with each other, and the exchanges between them became more frequent, and they were not limited to the content in "The Art of Cutting".
Today's questions have been answered, but Lin Yan did not leave immediately. He looked at the old man holding the scroll in his hand and asked:
"Mr. Feng, how long have you been here?" Mr. Feng stopped flipping through the book, thought for a moment and then said:
"Hmm~ It's been about twenty or thirty years!" Lin Yan said in surprise:
"Ah? Then you've been guarding the library here, don't you feel bored?" He actually wanted to say
I came here to “look at the building”, but I always felt that it sounded different to me.
It’s almost like “watching the gate”. After all, Feng Lao is a rare master, not an ordinary old man. It always feels a little inappropriate to say this.
Although after these days of getting along, he felt that Feng Lao might not care too much because of his temperament, but he couldn't be rude.
Feng Lao smiled and said:
"When people get old, they don't want to be disturbed. It's good to just read here and read!" Lin Yan thought for a while and said:
"Is it possible that what those scholars often say, 'The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own beauty like jade', is true? Mr. Feng, what have you realized after reading for so many years? Please tell me about it. !” Mr. Feng shook his head and said:
"How can there be so many things in the book? There are only books in the book!" When Lin Yan heard this sentence for the first time, he felt confused and thought:
"Isn't there only books in books? Isn't this obvious?" Suddenly, Lin Yan suddenly woke up:
"Yes, a book is a book, and it is not a universal wishing machine. Whatever you want comes to you. Those messy things are just fantasies spawned by the desires in other people's hearts."
"For example, scholars want to gain fame and fortune through studying, seek glory and wealth, and marry home beautiful wives and concubines. There is nothing wrong with these, and what they do is just following human nature."
"However, these are just derivatives, and a book is just a book and should not be given too many other meanings. Because then, it will become impure, and this is precisely the most important thing!" Lin Yan He solemnly cupped his hands and said:
"The students have been taught!" Feng Lao nodded, and then continued to devote his attention to the book in front of him.
Because he had promised to help Lin Yan solve his doubts, he had delayed his studies, and now he wanted to make up for the lost time.
When Lin Yan saw this, he stopped disturbing him, bowed deeply and left... More than a month had passed since Lin Yan returned to the academy, and there were less than five months left before Wu Bi.
His goal in a short period of time is to break through to the Great Perfection of Tongmai Realm. If not, he may be crushed in the subsequent martial arts competition.
He knew that among the disciples who participated, there were quite a few strong ones in the Houtian realm. Among other things, Zong Zhui and Zong Zhui, who he had met in the ruins before,
"Blood Buddha Son" Wu Xie was in this realm, and he also knew Tu Tian in the academy. Since this martial arts competition is so important, there will definitely be more masters from all parties participating. If you don't improve your strength as soon as possible, you may lose your life there.
After all, Lin Yan knew that martial arts competitions in the past were extremely cruel. The winner would soar into the sky, while the loser might not even have a chance to fall to dust, but would directly turn into dust!
Walking on the road to the academy, Lin Yan was thinking with his head down when he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the front, which seemed to be arguing about something.
He didn't want to join in the fun. After all, there were quite a few people who were affected by the fun, so he had no such interest.
Just as Lin Yan was about to leave, he suddenly heard a familiar voice. That was - Ming Ya? Lin Yan pushed through the crowd and walked in. He found Mingya and Tao Xiaotao standing in the middle of the field, with a wave of people in front blocking their way.
And between them, there was a chubby figure whose nose was bruised and swollen. He was staggering as if he was drunk. He might fall to the ground in the next moment.
But even though his steps were swaying, the figure still firmly stood in front of the two women, glaring at the people opposite.
What Lin Yan heard just now was Ming Ya's angry scolding, obviously she was extremely disgusted with those people. Looking at the shaky figure, Lin Yan naturally recognized him as Xu Dahai, and hurriedly separated from the crowd and stepped out, then supported his body.
Xu Dahai turned his head and saw that it was Lin Yan, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The people on the other side were all very strong, especially the leader who was much stronger than him. With his strength, he could only take a beating.
No, even with inner armor and other self-defense, Xu Dahai could hardly hold on anymore. If no one comes, he will just roll his eyes and lie down!
Fortunately, we caught up! As soon as he relaxed, Xu Dahai felt that his body became much softer. Lin Yan quickly helped him sit down next to Tao Xiaotao, and then asked the two women:
"What's going on?" Ming Ya was about to open her mouth when Tao Xiaotao said first:
"Lin Yan, this group of people are the first to cause trouble, you have to stand up for us!" This little girl usually looks gentle and quiet, and she doesn't know what the outrageous things these guys opposite have done. Tao Xiaotao's face turned red and she waved her fists angrily, as if she wished she could go on stage and teach them a lesson in person.
After her narration, Lin Yan roughly knew what happened. Originally, Mingya and Tao Xiaotao were traveling together, but then a group of people appeared out of nowhere, and because they were seniors, they used frivolous words and made teasing remarks.
What's even more irritating is that they used the reason that Mingya came from the southern barbarians to slander her as a spy who broke into the Tang Dynasty and wanted to take her away for investigation.
At the moment of the conflict, Xu Dahai, who had been hanging around Tao Xiaotao during this period, came and acted as a flower protector without saying a word.
The sad thing is that the flower protector is a little weak, but the opponent is a little strong, so he was beaten so badly!
In fact, if three people go together, even if they can't beat him, it won't be like this. It's just that Xu Dahai was eager to show off in front of his sweetheart, so he only played in front of his sweetheart. As a result, the storm he faced became even more fierce!
But no matter what, bullying Ming Ya and the others would mean getting into trouble with Lin Yan, which was even more serious than bullying him directly.
Lin Yan looked at the other party with an unkind expression, and the leading man also looked at Lin Yan with a playful smile.
I saw that the other party was wearing a brocade robe, a jade pendant around his waist, holding a folding fan, fanning it gently, and tossing the hair on his head from time to time. He probably thought he was very elegant!
Behind him were several men with arms folded across their chests and arrogant expressions. Lin Yan looked at them thoughtfully.
I guess these people are legendary
A "dog leg", his strength is just that, and it doesn't deserve his too much attention. What made him a little concerned was the leader. This person had probably reached the acquired state, but the strange thing was that his aura did not give Lin Yan a strong feeling. Not to mention compared with Tu Tian and others, even Yuan Haodu was much stronger than him, which made Lin Yan very confused!
At this moment, the man put away his folding fan and said to Lin Yan:
"Who are you? Do you want to protect this spy?" Lin Yan asked back:
"Spy? Do you have evidence?" The man said impatiently:
"What evidence? As a southern barbarian, she must have evil intentions when she enters the academy. This is the evidence! If not, why would she come all the way here?" Lin Yan sneered:
"It's really ridiculous! Although she is a southern barbarian, she has passed a strict assessment to enter the academy. Even the vice-president didn't say anything. Who are you, talking nonsense here?" The man with the folding fan was caught. His face turned red with anger, he pointed his finger at Lin Yan and said:
"Bold! This is how you talk to your senior!" Lin Yanxuan glanced at him and said disdainfully:
"Everyone respects me as much as I respect others. Scum like you who make excuses to cause trouble will only bring shame to the college students!" The man with the folding fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and laughed again:
"So you are Lin Yan! I heard that you just became a disciple of the inner academy. Didn't you become obsessed with it? Just in time, I asked the senior to educate you well today, so as not to let others say that the students of my academy do not understand the rules!" Lin Yan's eyes flashed! Han, the other party deliberately made things difficult for Ming Ya and beat Xu Dahai today. He had long wanted to teach these guys a lesson, but he unexpectedly came to his door. It was just right!
I saw that the man with the folding fan was not sloppy. As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and punched Lin Yan in the chest.
Aside from his weak aura, the acquired realm was real, so Lin Yan didn't dare to be too careless.
after all
"A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength." Lin Yan will not end up capsizing in the gutter just because he underestimates his opponent.
He closed his eyes, carefully felt the flow of vitality in his body, and then controlled the vitality to quickly gather towards his chest.
It happened that Lin Yan was studying "The Art of Cutting" during this period, and with Feng Lao's guidance, he gained some new insights. Now he had an excellent training partner in front of him, so why not do it?
Seeing Lin Yan closing his eyes, the man with the folding fan thought that he had given up resistance because of his own strength. His smile gradually widened, even with a hint of ferocity.
"Boy, it's useless for you to accept your fate now. Who dared you to mock me in public? I have to beat you into a pig's head today!" The man with the folding fan thought so, and the strength of his hand could not help but increase a little more.
Under everyone's gaze, the man with the folding fan hit Lin Yan's chest hard with his fist. However, the imagined scene of Lin Yan vomiting blood and flying backwards did not appear. He still stood firmly on the spot, and his jaw dropped in shock.
"This...how is this possible?" The man with the folding fan shouted in disbelief. Lin Yan didn't care about his reaction, but judging from the results of the test just now, this "The Art of Cutting" is really a good thing!
Now that this is confirmed, there is no need to continue playing with this guy. Lin Yan showed his white teeth at him, smiled, and said:
"It's my turn next!" After saying that, Lin Yan instantly gathered his energy into his right fist, and then punched out. The man with the folding fan just said a
The word "no" was hit directly in the face by Lin Yan. In an instant, the man with the folding fan was punched by Lin Yan and turned 360 degrees in the air. Then he spun and flew out, hitting those behind him.
A wail suddenly sounded from the "dogleg"'s body. After a while, the man with the folding fan reluctantly stood up with the help of several people around him, but he no longer looked as suave as before.
At this time, half of his cheeks were swollen, his face was covered in blood, and several of his teeth were missing. He looked very embarrassed.
He was also puzzled. It was clear that the Lin Yan in front of him was only in the Tongmai realm. How could he defeat him in the Houtian realm with one blow?
Is this justified? In fact, this is not difficult to understand. Although the man with the folding fan is in the acquired realm, his realm was completely forcibly broken through by relying on pills. Therefore, his foundation is unstable and his vitality is weak.
Lin Yan, on the other hand, has grown up through several life-and-death battles. In addition, with the powerful attack power of the "Fighting Technique" that condenses vitality into one punch, it is normal for him to kneel!
Seeing that he could not defeat Lin Yan and it would be a shame to stay any longer, the man with the folding fan slurred a harsh word and said:
"Lin... Yan, if you have the guts, please... wait for me!" Then he took those
The "dog leg" ran away in despair. At this time, there was a burst of applause from the surrounding students. Most of these onlookers were freshmen, and a few were in the same class as Lin Yan, so they did not have a good impression of the seniors who bullied others.
Suddenly Lin Yan found someone coming to his side. He thought about it carefully and found that he seemed to be in the same class as this person and had experienced the same thing.
"The Fierce Man" Li Mu was trained by the devil, but he didn't talk much. The student said worriedly to Lin Yan:
"Lin Yan, you are in big trouble! The name of the folding fan man you just beat away is Qin Xiong. He has a cousin named Qin Chen, who is a well-known strong man in the inner court. You made enemies with him when you first entered the inner court. It’s really unwise!”
"And that's not the most important thing. He is Qin Zheng's great-nephew. Even among many academicians, Qin Zheng has great power. If he targets you, your life will not be easy in the future. Come on!" After hearing this, Lin Yan suddenly realized!
He asked how someone could suddenly come to trouble Mingya and the others for no reason. Now that he thought about it, it was probably to test him!
"Okay! I haven't gone to find you yet, but you came to the door first! Let's wait and see who can fight who!" Lin Yan narrowed his eyes, thinking this.
