The night of the small city is like a black curtain, and the moon is like a silver hook.

Dad beckoned to Li Anmin and walked straight to the study.

Li Anmin followed his father honestly, and the moonlight stretched his father's straight figure for a long time.

It's not so much a study as a quiet room full of books. The three siblings spent most of their childhood in this quiet room.

The ashram is located in the northeast corner of the house. When you open the simple wooden door, you will be greeted by six bookshelves on either side. The shelves are nine stories high, and they are neatly stacked with books. Each bookshelf represents a different kind, namely: Six Arts, Zhuzi, Poetry, Military Books, Shushu, and Fang Skills.

Daddy said that there are classes in storytelling, but there are no classes in teaching.

So Li Anmin and the three of them have been forced by their father since they were children to read all the books on the shelves.

Dad also said that you may not understand what is said in the book, but you will definitely understand it in the future.

Even if the content of the book is obscure, Daddy requires the three of them to memorize it.

Passing through the six bookshelves, there are four wooden doors lined up. Three of the rooms belong to Li Anmin, Chen Fanfan, and Liuying. As for the fourth, Daddy forbade them to enter, and the door was forever hung with a closed brass lock.

There were no windows in the small room, just a few empty spaces for air circulation. To prevent dimming, several oil lamps hung on the walls of each of the three rooms. Daddy would add oil to the oil lamp every day, so that the room was almost bright. Not only that, but the walls of the small room are also thick, so it is extremely quiet.

Li Anmin read and wrote here when he was a child, and when he was 12 years old, he read all the books on the shelves. Dad was very satisfied, and he rarely drank a few taels of wine alone that day.

Later, I saw that Chen Fanfan was really not interested in reading, and he was often perfunctory. Even the well-behaved and lovely Liuying often doze off in the quiet room over time. Dad simply stopped insisting on the three of them, and slowly the study room was completely empty.

followed his father all the way into the study, and Li Anmin thought to himself that his father must have something big to tell him.

Recalling the scene of reading at that time, Li Anmin felt a trace of emotion in his heart. He reached out and touched the six bookshelves, and found that they were all covered with dust.

"It turns out that this bookshelf is not as tall as I remembered." Li Anmin stroked the bookshelf and muttered to himself.

Hearing this, Dad glanced back and did not speak.

Then he walked to the door of the fourth ashram, took a key from his waist, and opened it with a click.

"Come in."

Daddy's shrill voice came, and Li Anmin hurriedly ran over.

The more it is hidden, the more attention it attracts.

Regarding this fourth ashram, Li Anmin and Chen Fanfan were extremely curious. When I was a child, I don't know how many times I secretly lay in front of the door and wanted to find out through the crack in the door. But the amazing thing is that every time you peep, you will be caught by your father, and in the end you can only win a ring ruler.

It was pitch black in the quiet room. Daddy took out the fire fold in his hand and blew on it, skillfully lit a few oil lamps hanging on the wall, and the quiet room was much brighter.

Entering the fourth quiet room, Li Anmin's expression was a little stunned.

In the center of the ashram is a stone table, with a stone bench on either side of the stone table, and an earthen kang behind the stone bench.

There is a chessboard on the table, and there are only two chess pieces, one black and one white, scattered on the chessboard.

Seeing Li Anmin come in, Dad closed the door of the fourth quiet room. Then he walked to the stone table and reached out and pressed the sunspot on the chessboard.

"Boom"

With the sound of friction, Li Anmin was surprised to find that the earthen kang actually moved back a little. As the kang moved, a pitch-black hole was revealed.

"Come with me."

Daddy gave Li Anmin an order, then picked up the fire fold, bent down and got into the hole. Li Anmin hurriedly followed behind his father, and his heart was already surging.

Downward from the entrance of the cave are steps carved out of stone.

The steps were steep, but Daddy walked steadily, skillfully lighting the lights on the walls of the secret passage as he went. Dad walked forward without saying a word, and Li Anmin forcibly suppressed the questions in his heart and silently followed behind him.

After walking nearly a hundred steps, Dad looked at the secret passage, and then stopped.

Li Anmin saw his father put his hand on the protruding stone on the right wall and twisted it gently.

Then, a secret room appeared in front of Li Anmin's eyes.

This secret room is also not large, and there is a bookshelf in the middle that is the same as the entrance to the study. Other than that, there is nothing else.

If you look closely, there are only three booklets on the shelf. The booklet does not have a cover, and Li Anmin does not know what is recorded on it.

Dad stood upright on the side of the bookshelf, looked at Li Anmin with a blank face, coughed lightly and said:

"This secret passage connects several abandoned wells in the city, which is safe and sheltered, and can be ventilated. I built it for the occasion. Unless you can, don't expose it at will, and don't talk to anyone! ”

When Li Anmin heard this, his heart was in a mess.

was able to secretly build such a hidden secret passage, who is Daddy?

The so-called unforeseen needs, who are you guarding against, and what should you be by?

What exactly is Daddy going to say to him today?

Daddy's sharp eyes swept over Li Anmin, who was full of doubts, and continued without a trace of expression on his face:

“

I know you have a lot of questions on your mind, but a lot of things are not yet ripe. Knowing in advance is not beneficial for you. You just have to remember what I said to you today, about the doubts in your heart, and it will be clear in the future. ”

Daddy's shrill voice sounded in Li Anmin's ears, and Li Anmin knew that what Daddy was going to tell him next must be extremely important. So, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

Seeing that Li Anmin's mood stabilized, Dad then slowly spoke:

"Once the world was in turmoil, there were ancient ancestors, who had miraculous feats, omnipotent, and immortal. It ruled the world, so it is called the period of the ancestors.

In order to compete for fame and fortune, they actually used heaven and earth as a chessboard and the common people as chess pieces.

But their game has caused chaos in the world, the people are fluent, the corpses are everywhere, and the people are struggling to survive.

Later, there was the ancestor Li Xu, who couldn't bear it when he saw the common people in trouble. So he founded the Xuan Xuan School Palace, and preached in the world.

There are three thousand avenues, and the common people can practice miraculous skills from now on. Since then, there have been many capable people in the world, and for a while, there are countless monks!

Sensing that their authority was threatened, the ancestors rallied to destroy the monks. But who knew that after a big battle, the ancestors were defeated and fled in all directions!

Since then, the land has entered the age of monks.

After that, the cultivators in the world were dissatisfied with the previous actions of the ancestors, and led the monks of the world to besiege the ancestors who fled.

Seeing that the ancestors were slaughtered, Li Xu, the palace master of the Xuan Xue Palace, couldn't bear it and wanted to dissuade him. But who knew that the common people thought that Li Xu was also an ancestor, and they wanted to kill him together to prevent future troubles.

Li Xu was helpless, he educated the people, and then he was besieged and killed by the people, and he was angry and fought against the people.

In this battle, Li Xu slaughtered all the monks in the world.

He was also seriously injured, and later Li Xu burned down the inheritance of the world and led everyone in the Xuan Xuan Academy to disappear.

After this battle, there were no monks in the world, and there was no Xuan Xuan Xue Palace.

After the glorious and short era of monks, the people of the world collected the remaining cultivation inheritance in order to become strong, in order to fight for the world.

The battle for the cultivation inheritance has been going on for hundreds of years, and finally two inheritances have been found between the broken walls and the ruins, the mountains, rivers and the earth!

This is also known as the way of bundo and martial arts.

The so-called martial arts is the way to practice martial arts.

By feeling and absorbing the many mysterious breaths between heaven and earth, you can use them to enhance your strength.

This path depends on talent, exercises, and persistence.

There is a difference between good and bad talents, and there are strong and weak exercises, but you can insist that you are equal in front of everyone.

The so-called Wendao, that is, not to cultivate force, but to cultivate talent, which is very mysterious.

The way to govern the world, the way to employ people, the way to be people, all kinds of things. Such people are often favored by the heavens, and they are born with magical talents, subtle and powerful.

Wendao is extremely powerful and mysterious. This path is deeply related to the gods and souls, so the cultivation of this path mainly depends on talent and awakening. Probably because it is too powerful, Wendao monks are extremely rare.

”

Li Anmin sometimes suddenly realized, sometimes frowned.

Daddy knew that this kid's heart was already full of more questions, and after seeing it, he just laughed and continued:

"In addition, the mind, strategy, insight, means, and the way of civil and military affairs complement each other, and cannot be ignored. When measuring a person's strength, even mental strategy is more important than the path of cultivation. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Dad looked at Li Anmin quietly, waiting for him to ask his questions.

Li Anmin patted his head, and he didn't care that his father actually said so many words in one breath, and hurriedly asked:

"The method of breathing is a martial arts technique?"

Daddy said without blinking:

"Yes."

Li Anmin looked clear, and then asked:

"What are the levels of exercises, and what are the levels of breathing?"

Daddy's face was straight, and he looked at Li Anmin and said meaningfully:

"The mediocre people in the world divide the exercises into three, six, nine and so on, but they don't understand that suitability is the best truth."

Seeing that Li Anmin seemed to understand or not, Dad paused for a moment and continued:

"Your breathing method is the most suitable exercise for you at this stage. You can practice diligently, but I'm not good at teaching, you can find a suitable teacher among the Xuanque. ”

"I wanted to guard the three of you in this small city for this life, but you were involved in the troubles of the Han royal family and the Di clan.

You can practice this exercise diligently to protect yourself. I'm about to leave for a while, so you and Xiaofan will be stationed with the army during this time.

As for Hotaru, let him go with you. I think that red-tasseled girl is also reliable, and she really likes the firefly, you can entrust the firefly to her care.

Take the old black belt with you, and it won't mess with you. If you need to leave the camp, it will follow you.

”

Hearing that his father was leaving, Li Anmin left the exercises, cultivation, and black dog behind in an instant. His eyes instantly turned red, and he stared at his father speechless.

When Dad saw Li Anmin's appearance, he showed such a gentle smile on his face for the first time, and said loudly:

"Don't worry, I'll be back."

Although Dad's voice was still shrill and thin, Li Anmin heard a hint of tenderness mixed in his words.

The more mysterious the father, the more curious Li Anmin became. As he grew older, Li Anmin's mind became more and more mature, and the doubts in his heart became deeper and deeper.

At this moment, knowing that his father was about to leave, Li Anmin couldn't hold back any longer, raised his head and looked directly into his father's eyes, and asked firmly:

"Daddy, who are you?"

"Like you, my surname is Li, a Han Chinese."
