1.

Hong Chen's appearance was not the most unexpected thing Lin Xiao had encountered since he entered school. Although this girl quickly got along with him with her unique "self-familiar" ability, although this girl looked really similar to the sword spirit Hongchen in her memory (even the name was similar), although she knew martial arts, spells, and true qi......

But these add up to something incredible that happened to Lin Xiao later.

On the night she met Hong Chen, she told Lin Xiao that she could go to the library to find out what Taoist classics there were and borrow them to read, which would help calm the restless true qi in her body.

Lin Xiao looked at Hong Chen's harmless smile with a look of great distrust: "Don't fool me!"

Hong Chen rolled his eyes: "You really think I'm full, and I'm going to make fun of you?!"

"This possibility is not ruled out. ”

"Please, what kind of grudge do I have with you, I need to make fun of you?!"

"That's right...... But you're bored!"

"You!" Hong Chen's face sank, and then he changed to an innocent smile again: "If I really want to get you, do you think you can beat me now?"

Lin Xiao's cold sweat suddenly fell: "Now it's a socialist society, and the rivers and lakes also talk about the legal system!"

"Ouch, it's really the future flower of the motherland! You're so good!" Hong Chen smirked and clapped his hands, and then his face sank again: "But this is my business?!" After speaking, she stretched out two fingers, made some acupuncture points, and shook them in front of Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao looked at Hong Chen admiring her own nails, and quietly shuddered: "You obviously want to pretend to be a normal person in college, so how amazing are you still acting in front of me, how can I believe you?"

"I'm different from you, and I don't have any true qi to suppress. ”

Hong Chen withdrew his hand, leaned forward, leaned closer and said to Lin Xiao, "And—if I really behave completely normally, would you believe the opinion of a person who doesn't know anything about cultivation?"

"That's right. Lin Xiao nodded, and then remembered another question: "Wait...... You're from the Quadruple?"

"Oops...... Good homework. ”

"Then how do I know, whether you are a good person or a bad person?!" Lin Xiao smiled slightly, and also leaned forward to close the distance between him and Hong Chen, the tips of their noses almost touched together, and there was a very sweet fragrance on her body, which was exactly the same as the night in Fuyao Town in her memory.

Hong Chen didn't react at all to this obviously too intimate behavior, but smiled back: "You just listen to me obediently, go to the library, and find out if there are any books like the kind I said." At that point, you'll know if I'm a good person or a bad person. ”

Lin Xiao slowly leaned back in his chair. Jinghai Normal University is a top university in the country, belonging to the "double first-class" universities, there must be countless books in the library, and it has books that ordinary colleges and universities do not have, and it should not be difficult to find one or two Taoist classics.

He also has no worries about not being able to understand it, and most of the current Taoist classics have been simplified by later generations, and there are various annotations on the obscure parts. Even if there are no annotations, it will not be more difficult to understand than "Laozi" and "Zhuangzi"!

Lin Xiao was worried that Hong Chen insisted on going to the library under various banners, although she didn't seem to be wrong on the surface, she always felt that she had other plans. As for what exactly is being planned, it is difficult to say......

In the end, Lin Xiao still listened to Hong Chen's words. There is still a whole week to go before the military training at the beginning of the school, except for the two entrance guidance lectures in the morning and evening, there is a lot of time every day. So, after listening to the lecture one afternoon, he went to the library with his student ID.

It has been said, "The library is poetic, spiritual, fragrant, melodic and wonderful." The library at Jinghai Normal University is a good example of this. Here, every marble floor is polished, every bookshelf is made of oily mahogany, every row of books is as neat as a procession of guards, every desk is of a moderate height, and every reader is fully engaged.

Clean and tidy, elegant and comfortable, it is worthy of being a library built by a nationally renowned university.

Lin Xiao consciously slowed down the rhythm of his every move, and the quiet atmosphere of this library reminded him of Ye Xin's office involuntarily. But the difference is that there is more or less a human atmosphere here, rather than the deathly silence.

The library has three floors, the first and second floors are both book floors and reading areas, and the third floor is a study room. Lin Xiao quickly found the books he was looking for through book search, but when he was about to leave, there was a problem.

He walked for a long time, but couldn't find where the library was.

"Senior, please ask. Lin Xiao stopped a passing senior and asked, "Where is the borrowing office?"

The senior looked at Lin Xiao and smiled, "You are a freshman." If you want to borrow a book, isn't there an office desk on the first floor near the door? ”

Lin Xiao couldn't help but be stunned: "I just came over from there, and I didn't see any office desks." ”

Now it was the senior's turn to speak: "No, I've been in this school for almost three years, and I've always been there." Did you change the location?"

Suddenly, someone patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder: "Senior brother?"

Lin Xiao turned around and immediately recognized it: "Senior Sister Zhou." ”

The person who came was the senior sister who took Lin Xiao to the dormitory building on the day of school - Zhou Chuchu.

The senior obviously knew Zhou Chuchu as well, so he immediately asked, "Chu Chu, do you know where the library's borrowing office has moved?" Just now this senior said that he didn't see the borrowing desk at the door. ”

Zhou Chuchu said: "Senior, didn't you read the announcement on the campus platform, the original teacher Li seems to have resigned during the summer vacation, and a new teacher has come." There used to be a small study room on the third floor, but the school converted it into an office, and now you have to go to the new teacher's office on the third floor to register if you want to borrow books. ”

"Why did you become so troublesome, where did you get such a big teacher?" said the senior with a frown.

Lin Xiao uncharacteristically didn't complain at the moment, when he listened to Zhou Chuchu talk about it, he always felt that there was something familiar......

Lin Xiao said goodbye to Zhou Chuchu and the senior, went up to the third floor with the book, passed by a row of study rooms, and finally saw the newly repaired office at the end of the corridor. He looked at the sign next to the door that read "Librarian's Office" and snapped his fingers lightly on the door.

"Enter. ”

There was a very cold response from inside, and even through a door, one could feel a chill. Lin Xiao's eyes widened, and his heart suddenly beat wildly.

This cold voice and flat tone really sound too familiar to be more familiar!

"Won't it?!play me!" Lin Xiao gasped heavily, and already had a faint answer in his heart, but he didn't want to admit it. He held the book in one hand and hung it in the air in the other, only inches away from the door, but he didn't push it through.

Lin Xiao froze in place and hesitated for a long time, but finally gritted his teeth, pushed open the door and walked in.

The door closed behind him without wind.

The atmosphere of silence in the library was still there, but the earthly aura was gone, and only the familiar coldness remained. For a moment, Lin Xiao felt as if he had never graduated from Thorn Tong Middle School, and everything was still the same as when he was in high school.

For example, this office, and then ...... The guy in this office!

A shelf of books, a lamp, a cup of tea, and a computer that is placed outward. The woman sitting behind the desk quietly looked at the book in her hand, her girlish face looked particularly delicate against the backdrop of the light, but her whole body was full of elegant and dignified noble temperament. She wears glasses, and her eyes behind the lenses are as deep as an abyss.

The woman closed the book, raised her head, and met Lin Xiao's eyes, her gaze as flat as still water.

2.

Lin Xiao wore a camouflage uniform during military training, sat cross-legged on the ground in the office, his heart to the sky, staring at his eyes, and spitting out luck. Ye Xin was still sitting behind her desk, quietly without saying a word, holding a book and reading it attentively.

Lin Xiao knew in his heart that Hong Chen's appearance was too much of a coincidence, and it was completely deliberate, but he didn't expect that person to be Ye Xin. But if she thought about it carefully, since she could let a ghost cultivator awaken her memory, it didn't seem strange to have another Hong Chen by her side now.

Ye Xin put down the book, rubbed his eyebrows, looked at Lin Xiao sitting on the ground behind the lenses, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the day of the reunion.

...............

"Teacher Xiaoye?!"

Lin Xiao looked at Ye Xin behind the desk, stood in place for a long time, and didn't come back to his senses for a long time. Ye Xin stood up and walked slowly in front of Lin Xiao, looked at him twice, and suddenly waved his palm and slashed at him.

Lin Xiao was taken aback, he obviously didn't expect that the first thing Ye Xin did when he saw him was actually to do it to himself, so he subconsciously raised his hand to block. But the other party's movements were obviously a few points faster than him, and as soon as he raised his hand here, he had already buckled the two acupoints on his wrist, "Neiguan" and "Waiguan".

Ye Xin's fingers were fast, and for a while, he sealed the eight acupoints on Lin Xiao's body, "Gongsun", "Neiguan", "Linxi", "Waiguan", "Shenmai", "Houxi", "Lieque" and "Zhaohai", and then the true qi turned and was injected into the body along the eight veins of the Qi Jing.

Lin Xiao only felt a burst of warmth in his body, and the discomfort caused by the restlessness of the true qi in his body in the past few days was suddenly swept away, and he felt indescribably comfortable.

"Hong Chen has told me about your situation, and it is similar to what I expected. Ye Xin unlocked the acupoints on Lin Xiao's body and withdrew his true qi.

Lin Xiao said: "She was really sent by you." ”

Ye Xin replied: "I have something to do, so I ask her to help me take care of you, and by the way, think of some countermeasures for what happened to you." ”

Lin Xiao nodded, and when Ye Xin turned around, he muttered softly: "What big business can you be busy with, could it be that you are busy moving?"

Ye Xin suddenly turned his head and glared at Lin Xiao, and the cold light in his beautiful eyes startled him: "If I wasn't busy moving, who do you think would save you now?!"

The smile on Lin Xiao's face narrowed slightly: "During the summer vacation, didn't you tell me that after these inexplicable cultivations are restored, there will be such cheating side effects!"

"It's not a side effect. Ye Xin said, "This is your body's problem. ”

Lin Xiao said with a smile: "What are you kidding! I am a good student, I read more books and newspapers, eat less snacks and sleep more; my teeth are good, my appetite is good, my body is very good, and my food is fragrant, and my physical examination has not been lower than normal since I was a child." Where do you see that I'm not well? ”

Ye Xin's face turned cold: "I'm not saying that you are not in good health, on the contrary, you are far superior to ordinary people in these aspects." I mean – your problems come from within your body. ”

"My kidneys are not deficient......" Lin Xiao said weakly.

Ye Xin was choked so much that he couldn't say a word for a while, his pretty face was cloudy, desperately restraining the true qi circulating in his body, preventing him from vomiting blood with a slap, and at the same time involuntarily began to think about whether falling from the building would affect people's IQ.

"I mean...... Although your cultivation will recover with the recovery of your memory, the eight veins of the Qi Sutra in your body after you come to the Triple Building are all in a closed state, and before you open up the eight veins, the true qi will suffocate in the dantian and qi sea in your body and cannot flow smoothly. ”

Lin Xiao suddenly said with a straight face: "If my Eight Veins of the Strange Meridian are not opened for a long time, what will be the consequences?"

"Then with the recovery of your memory, more and more true qi will be stranded in your dantian and qi sea, and after reaching a certain tolerance range......" Ye Xin suddenly smiled slightly, "Anyway, after I came to the Quadruple Building, I knew something called a balloon." Now I ask you - what happens if the balloon is filled with too much gas?"

"Nonsense, of course it's a ...... Wait!" Lin Xiao's eyes widened in horror, "You don't mean ......"

Ye Xin nodded: "That's right, the result is that he exploded and died." ”

Lin Xiao couldn't help but gasp.

"From today onwards, if you have nothing to do, come to me, and I will teach you how to open the eight veins of the Qi Sutra. Ye Xin took out an agate red vial from the drawer of his desk, "And this, if you are really restless when you go out, and it is difficult to stop and exercise, take one pill of the medicine in this can help you regulate your breath and condense your qi." ”

...............

Thoughts pull back to the present.

Ye Xin watched Lin Xiao sit cross-legged on the ground, and could sense that he was guiding the true qi in his body to operate and circulate in the order of Zhou Tian, and his internal force was also slowly increasing with this process. I saw wisps of white gas bubbling from his body, which was a lot of sweat flowing out and evaporating under the impetus of internal force.

Ye Xin moved his gaze upwards and looked at the long sword hanging above Lin Xiao's head that was pitch-black and had a blood-colored inscription engraved on the blade of the sword-Biluo. The sword continued to exude a jet-black aura in the process of Lin Xiao's luck, and the tip of the sword pointed downward, no more than an inch away from the "Baihui Acupoint" above his head, and the blade trembled slightly, as if it could pierce down and penetrate the Heavenly Spirit Cover at any time.

This scene looked extremely dangerous, but Ye Xin had a worry-free look on his face. At this moment, Bi Luo turned into an extremely fine black qi, which was instantly injected from the top of Lin Xiao's head, and then a cloud of evil qi enveloped his whole body.

Lin Xiao only felt that a fiery breath originated in the lower abdomen, went down to the "perineum/acupoint", passed through the "Guan Yuan", "Qugu", "Zhongji", "Lianquan" and other acupoints along the abdomen, reached the throat, and then went up to surround the mouth/lips, and passed through the face into the "Chengwee acupoint" under the eye socket.

What's more, at the moment when Bi Luo turned into sword qi and pierced into his body, Lin Xiao only felt that some shackles in his body had been quietly broken, and at the same time, the true qi in his body that had been circulating rapidly suddenly slowed down.

Lin Xiao's only feeling at this time was very hot, as if he had been calcined in a melting pot, but he didn't feel the slightest discomfort;

Although the True Qi that had been running slowly between the Qi Sea and the Dantian had slowed down at this time, it had a smoother running path, and every Sunday it had run, the Qi would become more condensed, and it seemed to be impacting towards some special acupoints.

Lin Xiao opened his eyes, his eyes full of joy.

"It's Ren Mai, my Ren Mai is open!" he smiled and looked at Ye Xin who was standing in front of him. The other party's face was still cold, but there was a visible smile in his eyes.

3.

"How's your True Qi disease healing?"

Lin Xiao and Hong Chen had already changed out of the camouflage uniforms they wore during military training. It was dusk, the sun was setting, and the moonlight was falling from the sky on the other side. The two walked out of the cafeteria, walked slowly side by side, and slowly walked towards the playground.

"I don't know how to say it, but it should be okay. I just opened up Ren's pulse at noon today, which can be regarded as a small breakthrough. Lin Xiao said after thinking about it for a while.

Hong Chen waved his hand and slapped Lin Xiao's back: "That's right, it's worthy of being the Pope of the Quadruple Building, it's different if you have a foundation! If this is to be replaced by ordinary people's cultivation, if you want to open up any of the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, you will definitely not have such a fast method." ”

Lin Xiao tilted his head and stared at Hong Chen: "Why don't you pretend now?Didn't you try to clear up the relationship between yourself and the Quadruple Building in front of me before?!"

"One time, another time. Hong Chen smiled: "Before, it was so that you could let down your guard and obediently listen to my words and go to the library." Now that you've seen Ye Xin himself, what else do I have to hide. ”

Lin Xiao's eyebrows raised slightly, he was still doubting whether this Hong Chen would be Ye Xinshu's apprentice, but now listening to her tone, when he mentioned Ye Xin, he called him by his name, without the slightest respect at all. So what exactly is the relationship between the two of them?

"You and Teacher Xiaoye have known each other for a long time, right?"

"yes, I've known each other for a long time. ”

"And what is your relationship with her?"

"It doesn't matter...... If I had to say it, I should be her creditor!"

Lin Xiao's eyes couldn't help but widen: "Ah?!"

Hong Chen still had a nonchalant look: "She still owes me a favor and hasn't paid it back." ”

"I now have good reason to believe that you are definitely not a normal person. Lin Xiao looked Hong Chen up and down, "You don't seem to have a few catties or taels, but you can still make Teacher Xiao Ye owe you a favor." ”

Hong Chen said with a smirk: "Yes...... Speaking of which, I have to thank you!"

Lin Xiao suddenly said, "Thank me for what?"

Hong Chen stopped and turned his head, winking at Lin Xiao playfully with her watery eyes: "I won't tell you, anyway, when you slowly remember something, you will naturally know what she owes me." ”

Lin Xiao said in a deep voice: "Does this have anything to do with the me when I was in the four-story building?"

Hong Chen was silent for a moment, smiled noncommittally, and continued to walk forward.

"Who the hell am I in the Quadruple Building?"

Hong Chen waved his hand impatiently: "Can't you leave some suspense for your next memories?!The spoiler is cool for a while, the whole family crematorium!" Without waiting for Lin Xiao to continue speaking, she said again: "Besides, your teacher Xiao Ye is the one who has accompanied you in the fourth floor for the rest of your life, and it is not my ......."

Lin Xiao's whole body suddenly stiffened: "What did you say?!"

Hong Chen seemed to notice that he was speechless, and his face was flushed with an abnormal red: "It's nothing, I'm talking nonsense, teasing you." Before Lin Xiao could react, he added: "I have to get up early tomorrow morning and go for a morning run, go back to rest early - good night." Without looking back, he walked into the girl's dormitory.

Lin Xiaohu looked at Hong Chen's back suspiciously: "What the hell, isn't it even seven o'clock now!"

Seeing Hong Chen's back disappear at the staircase, Lin Xiao shook his head inexplicably, and did not continue to walk in the direction of the playground, but turned around and went to the library, and after entering the door, he took the elevator directly to the third floor to find Ye Xin.

The office door was unlocked, it was empty, the lights weren't on, and it was pitch black. Lin Xiao turned on the ancient style copper palace lamp on Ye Xin's desk in the dark, and the bright yellow warm light reflected in the room, giving people a sense of comfort from the heart.

Lin Xiao moved his gaze to the table and looked at an antique thread-bound book placed next to the computer.

There was no signature on the book, Lin Xiao picked up the book and flipped through it briefly, and found that the layout of the book strictly followed the order of the vertical version to the right, and it was densely filled with delicate hairpins, and there was a smell of ink. In addition, the book also depicts several human bodies in vermilion, and the locations and names of the various meridians and acupoints are marked in detail.

"Is this the method of opening up the meridians that I have practiced in the past few days, how does it look like a medical book?" Lin Xiao frowned and turned back to the first page to the right.

This book has no title page, no preface, and no table of contents, but at the beginning of the rows of hairpins on the first page, three big characters are written in square italics-

Ren Pulse Theory.
