Chapter 34: Empty Flash (I)
At this time, the sky was not yet bright, and it was still dark outside, so the inside of the martial pavilion was also pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers.
Lu Yan found the place where the candlestick was according to the direction in his memory, and after carefully groping with his hands for a while, he picked up the fire fold next to him, and then gently lit the red candle on the candlestick.
Suddenly, the surroundings were brightly lit by candlelight.
As far as the eye can see, the first floor of the entire martial arts pavilion occupies a large area, the size of two basketball courts, and in the middle are dozens of thick stone pillars carved with strange patterns supporting the entire martial pavilion. Rows of wooden bookshelves are neatly arranged around it, and they are filled with all kinds of books. Just at a glance, it makes people see very clearly, and the classification is also very clear. Although there are a lot of them, they don't feel cluttered at all.
I saw that these bookshelves are distinguished according to the labels attached to them, and each label is written in detail about what kind of books are placed on this shelf, so that people can easily see at a glance, so that people can quickly find the category of classics they are looking for.
In the innermost part of the bookshelf, there is an open space where dozens of long tables are placed, on which are placed pen, ink, paper, inkstones, etc., apparently for those who need to transcribe the exercises after receiving them.
In the Lu family, the rules of the Martial Pavilion were that no one could take any of the martial arts in the Martial Pavilion out, and if they violated it, they would be severely punished. However, you can copy and transcribe it yourself.
And on the far left side of the bookshelves, there is a wooden spiral staircase leading to the second floor above, where Lu Yan's destination for today's trip is located.
The martial arts pavilion of the Lu family is mainly divided into three layers, the first layer is mainly some yellow-level exercises, miscellaneous notes, travelogues, medical books, poems and other ...... It is mainly suitable for martial artists who practice the qi mirror, and it is necessary for the initial cultivation of martial arts and other knowledge for laying the foundation. Above the second layer, the collected exercises and some precious classics are the real support of the Lu family.
It is said that the exercises included above are also at the lowest intermediate level of the yellow level, and there are even legends that there are classics of exercises above the Xuan level. However, Lu Yan has never been up again, I don't know if it's true or not, I just heard about it by chance before.
In the Cangmang Continent, the exercises practiced by all martial artists are mainly divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang, with the lowest Yellow-level exercises and the strongest upward-level Heaven-level exercises. As for whether there is anything more powerful further up, Lu Yan himself doesn't understand it, and he hasn't heard of it again.
Although the Yellow Level Exercise is the lowest level of existence, it is not something that everyone can have.
The entire vast continent is boundless, and there are thousands of races scattered among them, and humans are only one of them. Thousands of years ago, humans were the weakest of all races. At that time, human beings did not yet have the existence of martial artists, everything was still in the primitive state of slash-and-burn life, and other races, such as the demon beast race, the demon race, etc., had developed to an unimaginable situation, and they ruled the entire Cang Mang Continent. Humans are kept in captivity as coolies and rations, and humans are simply unable to resist and have no ability to do so, and all of them are living in dire straits.
But human beings are also the best at learning, until later, through the study of nature and the study of other races, the ancestors of human beings finally created exercises suitable for human cultivation, and since then there have been many strong people, and finally got rid of the fate of being enslaved.
Human beings themselves are very good at learning, and when their ancestors created exercises suitable for human cultivation, human beings began to slowly occupy a place in the great wilderness. After tens of thousands of years of continuous accumulation, human beings finally occupied a dominant position in the great wilderness and became the most powerful race in the whole world.
Although after tens of millions of years of accumulation, human beings have created a lot of exercises, but these exercises are basically concentrated in the hands of big forces and big families. There are also exercises that have dissipated into the world with the passage of time.
Just like Longzhou Mansion is only a partial place in the Tang Kingdom, the yellow-level exercises here are basically only in the hands of those big families and imperial court forces, and even in the hands of many forces, the yellow-level exercises are already the treasure of the Zhen clan.
Walking through the heavy bookshelves, Lu Yan came to the spiral staircase. After calming down, Lu Yan got up and stepped on the spiral ladder.
I hope I can get what I want this time, Lu Yan took a deep breath and prayed secretly in his heart. After all, because his strength had not yet reached the level of Qi training, he had never had a chance to go up.
..........
Just as Lu Yan was about to walk to the last floor of the spiral staircase, he stopped, because he suddenly found a transparent film at the entrance on the second floor. The streamers on the film are constantly alternating.
At first, Lu Yan was still a little confused, and he didn't know what the situation was. Later, I found that there was a sign next to the entrance that said that you should not enter unless you practice qi mirrors.
Lu Yan thought about it and understood, the exercises placed on the second floor were all above the yellow level, and they definitely couldn't go up casually, and with this film, people who were not qualified could be brushed out directly, so as to prevent some people who were not strong enough from fishing in troubled waters.
For such a film, Lu Yan was curious, and gently reached out and touched it.
At the moment when his palm touched the film, Lu Yan could clearly feel a cool and soft breath coming instantly, followed by a rebound force, which bounced Lu Yan's hand back.
"Hiss" Lu Yan felt incredible.
"Giggle chicken ......"!
Just when Lu Yan was still curious about this film, a rooster crowing came from outside the attic.
"We can't waste any more time, now that the rooster crows, it's only an hour before dawn. ”
At that moment, Lu Yan no longer hesitated, and according to the prompts next to him, his right hand gently pressed on the membrane while urging the true qi in the meridians to integrate into the membrane.
Soon, under the continuous integration of Lu Yan's true qi, the transparent film slowly formed a crack.
When the rift widened enough for him to pass through, Lu Yan stopped the output of true qi, and then jumped into the attic with a dodge.
Standing at the door, the entire second floor is not very large, only about half of the first floor, and it is obvious that there are only more than ten bookshelves, so the whole space looks relatively empty.
Lu Yan didn't think too much about it, so he walked straight to the nearest bookshelf and began to look for it.
Tall wooden bookshelves are neatly lined with thread-bound books. The covers of some books have begun to turn yellow, and some of them are bright and even have a strong smell of ink, which is obviously a newly made book.
Lu Yan picked up a copy casually and quickly flipped through it.
"Tiger Cannon Fist..."
"Wind Split..."
"Eight Extremes Collapse Fist..."
"Sunburst Sword ........"
Lu Yan pulled out one book at a time, read it and put it down, and drew more than a dozen books in a row. I flipped through the books on the entire first row of bookshelves and found no such thing.
Lu Yan frowned, looking a little lost.
Taking a deep breath of air, although Lu Yan was a little lost, he still believed that the Lu family's thousand-year-old collection would definitely have body exercises.
Shaking his head, Lu Yan continued to walk towards the next bookshelf.
After searching for a while, Lu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up. From the middle of the second layer of the fifth row of bookshelves, he pulled out a book with a tin cover and opened it carefully.
"Empty flash, body martial arts, unknown level......"
Looking at the content on the label, Lu Yan was overjoyed. Looking at the iron-colored book in his hand, he began to slowly turn it over.
As Lu Yan flipped through the pages one by one, the joy on his face became stronger and stronger.
"I didn't expect that there was such an exercise, it was really a strange person to create this exercise, and he could think of such a method, Lu Yan read it carefully, and at the same time kept admiring it in his heart.
"Uh-huh.....!"
Lu Yan was suddenly stunned....then he frowned slightly, and looked at the last page of the book with a solemn expression.
There are obvious tear marks there!
"Airflash Third Layer" ...... There is no one behind, Lu Yan is dumbfounded....
He looked at the last page of the book again, and there was obviously some extra space between it and the cover, and it was obvious that there were signs of tearing.
Lu Yan was silent for a moment, it was obvious that this empty flash was a remnant, and the content behind it was obviously torn off artificially.
Lu Yan's eyes flickered slightly, a little disappointed, and then he sighed a little helplessly.
This empty flash is a martial art for cultivating the body, and the method is peculiar enough, Lu Yan was deeply attracted when he saw it at first sight, and even for a moment, Lu Yan felt that this exercise was tailor-made for himself.
But the latter one was incomplete, which made Lu Yan feel very entangled all of a sudden. Whether it's practice or not, don't practice, and feel that it's really suitable for you, practice, but it's not complete.
Lu Yan shook his head helplessly, gently closed the book, and then carefully put it back on the shelf, wanting to turn around and leave.
Just as he was about to turn away, his hand involuntarily picked up the "empty flash". Lu Yan smiled helplessly, but there was a voice in his heart that told him that he should learn.
After a long battle between heaven and man in his mind, Lu Yan finally made up his mind. Lu Yan opened the book again, read it word by word, and quickly memorized the mental method in the book firmly in his mind.
The Lu family's martial arts rule is that the exercises here cannot be taken out. Although there was pen, ink and paper next to the bookshelf, Lu Yan didn't want to waste time transcribing.
Lu Yan believes in his memory very much. In the past, Lu Yan already had the ability to never forget, not to mention that now that he had broken through to the Qi Mirror, his memory was even better than before.
After about half an hour, Lu Yan finally memorized all the contents of this "Empty Flash" of about twenty pages.
After gently putting the cheats back on the bookshelf, Lu Yan looked out the window of the attic and exhaled with relief.
Finally finding a suitable martial art, Lu Yan felt a sense of relief in his heart at this time, and the next thing was to act according to the plan. It's time to go back, he thought to himself.
"Ahem....."
Just when Lu Yan was feeling happy and relaxed that he had found a suitable martial art, a cough suddenly came from behind.
