Chapter 22—At the Age of Ten

"So what you see on the point stone is not the strength of your heart, but the appearance of that heavenly fire. Pen~Fun~Pavilion www.biquge.info the dotted stone burned after irradiating you, right? The heavenly fire is so powerful, how can a mere dotted stone be able to spy on? Don't you think the charred spotted stone is very familiar?"

Xu Tian took the teacup and pointed in the direction of the garden: "That dark rockery over there was scorched when I dotted the pattern for you that time. 」

Xu Yan was a little speechless, no wonder he always felt that the little stone in the academy was very familiar, it turned out that he saw it every day but didn't pay attention to it.

"Even so, if you are in the Ancestral Weather Palace, it means that you have the possibility of becoming a tattoo master. As for the tattooer, don't think about it, it's not the same as the tattooer. The tattoo requires a fierce fighting rhythm, even if you work hard every day to exercise your limit, when it comes to the actual battle, who can guarantee that the battle time will end before your limit?"

"And the tattoo artist just stands comfortably behind the tattoo artist and engraves. 」

Xu Yan frowned and asked, "I asked Teacher Zuo that day, is there no one in the world who can be both a tattoo artist and a tattoo master?"

Xu Tian was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xu Yan's gaze a little strangely: "Naturally, there is. 」

"It's just that that's not what you can think about right now. 」

"All you need to do now is memorize that medical book. You're too slow to memorize, and you'll take all those medical books with you when you go back to the academy. 」

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

The weekend is over.

As a result, Xu Yan returned to the academy with several medical books.

He is really looking forward to the learning of tattoos.

These days, he has only learned some basic tattoos from Zuo Chengzhe's teachings. If he can penetrate the power pattern that Qiao Zhigang carved in his weapon, it is one of them. But after looking at the drawings drawn by Xu Tian, these simple lines did not challenge him at all.

The only way to learn tattoos is to learn medical skills.

Therefore, Xu Yan had no choice but to succumb to the rote memorization of medical books.

Four years have passed in the blink of an eye.

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

In the past four years, Xu Yan has been repeating the days.

Studying, memorizing, and going to Qiao Zhigang's side after class, and going home every Friday.

Cycle.

But on the contrary, this kind of fulfilling life made Xu Yan fall in love with it a little.

In fact, Xu Yan's personality is a bit like that of an old man who loves research.

I don't like to socialize, but I just bury myself in the things I love.

If there really is anything special that has changed, it is that the friendship between him and Lan Ming is getting better and better.

After uninterrupted communication with Qiao Zhigang, Qiao Zhigang finally agreed to Xu Yan's request. It's just that Qiao Zhigang still didn't call Xu Yan a master, it was more of an exchange nature. But what he can't deny is that under Xu Yan's guidance, Qiao Zhigang's level has improved by leaps and bounds. From the first-order tattoo soldiers that were barely able to be forged before, they can now be stably forged first-order tattoo soldiers.

Therefore, whenever Qiao Zhigang sells a tattooed soldier, he will give Xu Yan some shares.

Xu Yan got a share in this way, but he didn't ask much for the silver taels, so he gave most of them to Lan Ming.

And Lan Ming didn't ask for much, and always used all the money Xu Yan gave him for cooking. And as he grows older, Lan Ming's cooking skills are also constantly improving. Xu Yan had no doubts about Lan Ming's ability to become a tattoo chef in the future.

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

"Big brother, I'm going to be late!"

Lan Ming patted Xu Yan, who was still curled up on the bed, and looked at him speechlessly: "Yesterday, Teacher Zuo explained that you can't be late today, otherwise you will die. 」

Four years later, Lan Ming was still wearing the patched robes. However, after Xu Yan's care, his life has obviously improved to a certain extent. Lan Ming's hair was still so messy and untrimmed, and his short black hair was tied up casually, but the bangs in front of him still covered most of his eyes.

"Alright, alright......

Xu Yan on the bed muttered, still holding a medical book in his arms. Last night, because he was still memorizing medical books, he forgot the time. However, in the past four years, he has gradually learned medical skills from Xu Tian. But the books in Xu Tian's hand were like magic, and whenever Xu Yan learned something and just tasted the sweetness, Xu Tian would throw a book at random, and he had to memorize it well before he could continue to learn.

Therefore, Xu Yan has still not been able to escape the clutches of "books" in the past four years.

Xu Yan stood up and yawned heavily.

The tone of getting up after getting up without freshening up made Lan Ming pinch his nose: "Brother Xu, I won't wait for you if you are slow!"

"Alright!

"Brother Xu, aren't you going to freshen up?"

"Hmph, Lao Tzu is a big man, where do you have so many small actions. 」

「......... Brother Xu, don't talk to me, your mouth is so stinky. 」

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

The two walked side by side, which made Xu Yan unhappy.

After these four years, Lan Ming actually grew taller than himself!

Now Xu Yan is only 1.50 meters, which is already good for people in the same year. But Lan Ming grew to one meter and sixty! Although he knew that he was still in the development stage, every time the two of them walked side by side, Xu Yan would feel uncomfortable.

In addition to his height, Xu Yan's insistence on extreme daily exercise has made his body very strong among people of the same age, and as long as he exerts a slight force, he can see the clear and distinct muscles. Compared to him, Lan Ming is simply like a skinny fairy, weak and weak.

As they walked along, there were also many students who were talking.

In the past four years, the combination of Xu Yan and Lan Ming has also been a well-known existence in Chengyun Academy. The reason is that both of them are the first and second places in the annual exam. Sometimes it's Lan Ming first, sometimes it's Xu Yan first. But the two of them obviously didn't matter to this, Lan Ming was still as timid as before, and Xu Yan was still as much as ever.

Enter the class room.

Although the class room changes with the grade, it seems to be a tacit understanding. The two positions in the corner of the window are always left blank. Because that was the position of Xu Yan and Lan Ming.

Seeing Xu Yan and Lan Ming walking into the class room, an unkind gaze came.

It's still Chen Aotian.

Four years have passed, Chen Aotian has not grown up, but has become more arrogant. In Chengyun Academy, the Chen family is the force, and the younger brother is accepted in a big way. It has the momentum of a student soldier in Chengyun Academy. But Chen Aotian was not half proud, because even with the teachings of various tattoo masters in the family, he could still only get third.

Xu Yan and Lan Ming were like two mountains that could never be overcome, overwhelming him. Perhaps it is for this reason that he is secretly more daring to vent his pressure.

Xu Yan didn't even look at Chen Aotian as before, and Lan Ming felt Chen Aotian's unkind gaze, subconsciously shrank behind Xu Yan, and cautiously walked back to his seat.
