This stone, only the size of an egg, was covered with sand on the surface, as if it had been calcined by extreme heat, and there was something stained on the outside, which should look like the blood of a sword beast.

When Nie Lin held it in his hand, he could feel a cold breath through his body. And what's even more strange is that the true qi in his body vaguely seems to be absorbed by this cold force.

The outer layer of sand, mixed with some blood, was stuck to it and it was difficult to remove, and it was impossible to determine what kind of stone it was.

However, judging from Nie Lin's experience, although this stone looks very poor, it is definitely a good material for forging swords, he is a little puzzled, this Luo Xiong's family conditions are not good, such a valuable thing should be able to be sold for a good price, and he actually gave it away directly.

In fact, he didn't know, Luo Xiong didn't know what kind of material this stone was, and he didn't even have the money to identify it, after all, it was a charge to find a Sword Pavilion or a professional sword caster to identify the quality and composition of these materials.

"Well, let's find a swordsmith to identify it when we have time!"

Nie Lin thought about it, put the stone into his baggage, cleaned up the house, and went out.

......

In the aisle at the entrance of the south courtyard, among the weeping willows, there is a pavilion.

Mr. Wangqiu and Liu Jingtao sat in the pavilion and waited, and there were some heavy books on the table, all of which were Mr. Wangqiu's salute.

Seeing that Nie Lin was coming, Liu Jingtao hadn't spoken yet, so Nie Lin took Mr. Wangqiu's salute.

Liu nodded with a stroking beard, and then Zheng Licheng came over to report: "Master, the carriage is ready and waiting at the gate of the outer courtyard!"

Mr. Wangqiu stood up, bowed his hand to Liu and said, "In this case, the old man will leave, Nie Lin, let's go!"

After Liu Jingtao surrendered to Mr. Wangqiu, he sent the two out of the courtyard.

At the gate of the outer courtyard, a carriage was parked at this time, and after Nie Lin walked over, he helped Mr. Wangqiu to get into the car first.

When he got into the car, Feng Xiaojian entered the yard at this time.

After seeing Nie Lin, Feng Xiaojian was a little surprised, and said, "Little Linzi, where are you going?"

This Nie Lin said: "Uncle Feng, I want to accompany Mr. to the academy!"

Uncle Feng seemed to have something to say, but he still didn't say it, just said, "Well, then you can go, be careful!"

"Uncle Feng is worried!" Nie Lin heard what Uncle Feng wanted to say and didn't say it, just reminded him to be careful, a little confused, and didn't ask, after he got into the carriage, Liu Jingtao nodded, and asked Zheng Licheng to personally drive the carriage to send them to the academy.

After the carriage left, Liu Jingtao said to Feng Xiaojian: "Xiaojian, if you have anything to say, just say it directly!"

Uncle Feng said: "Master, yesterday Nie Lin, the kid registered a fifth-level swordsman in the Sword Pavilion, and later after he came out of the sword competition with the grandson of the elder of the Luo Vice-Pavilion, an incident happened, two children of the Tang family beat the other child to a cripple!"

"Oh, there is such a thing?" Liu was shocked when he heard this, but he laughed and said: "When such an ugly thing happens, this Tang Wanli should be angry, haha!"

But Feng Xiaojian didn't smile, but his face was a little solemn, and said: "Master, as far as I know, this matter is related to Nie Lin, the two boys of the Tang family wanted to deal with Nie Lin, but they didn't expect this little Lin to be very smart, but they let them make a big oolong by themselves and beat their own brothers to cripple!"

Liu Jingtao stopped laughing, his expression calmed down, and said: "With Tang Wanli's style of doing things, I'm afraid I won't stop there, I will inform Lu Zhaonan of this matter, and the old man will write a letter in a while, you let Xiaoying send it to the capital quickly and hand it over to the patriarch!"

Uncle Feng was a little puzzled: "Master, this is not a big deal, why do you need to write to the patriarch?"

Liu said lightly: "This day the Lu Academy has opened, it is estimated that this year will be different from previous years, there should be many families, sects, sword pavilions, and official mansions, all of which will send their children to Bazhou, my Liu family, how can it be an exception?"

Feng Xiaojian didn't understand the meaning of Liu Jingtao's words, so he said: "Master, this Tianlu Academy in Bazhou is just a middle-level school, not as big as Xiazhou's Great Religion-level college, and not as good as the state-level Taiyuan, even if there is Mr. Wangqiu and Mr. Lu, who only retired from the court last year, although their reputation is very high, it will not make all parties flock to it, right?"

Liu Jingtao looked at Feng Xiaojian, but shook his head and said, "Don't forget, this academy is not only a place to teach, but also a place to learn and understand swords!"

"Tianlu Academy, what will be different this year?"

"This year, because there is a Nie Lin, it will naturally be different, hehe!" After Liu Jingtao finished speaking, he nodded to him and walked to the south courtyard first.

Uncle Feng seemed to understand a little, and followed closely behind Liu Jingtao.

......

"Nie Lin, this small teaching knowledge, you can comprehend it in three months, after the average sword learner passes the small teaching, they will focus on the way of the sword, and will not continue to study in academies such as the Chinese Sect, the Great Sect, or even the State Sect, because they think it is a waste of time, what do you think?"

The carriage drove on the wide road, very smoothly, without the slightest bump, Mr. Wangqiu flipped through an old book in his hand, and saw that Nie Lin was holding a copy of "General History of Ancient and Modern" and reading it with relish, so he asked out loud.

Nie Lin heard Mr. Wangqiu ask, so he closed the book and said: "Sir, students feel that reading to cultivate surnames, learning words and concentrating, practicing sword cultivation, suqin and heart, cultivating the surname of enlightenment, the surname of the character, and the surname of the heart, which is extremely helpful for the cultivation of the sword.

"Okay, what a way of civil and martial arts, true knowledge and royalty!"

When Mr. Wangqiu heard this, he praised: "At your young age, it is rare to have such a surname and cognition, and there are a few people in this world who can understand the word 'true', not to mention the word 'true knowledge'!"

Hearing Wangqiu's words, Nie Lin was secretly ashamed in his heart, he was a human being in two lives, so he had this profound understanding, if he had these profound understandings and experiences in his previous life, he would not have left regrets.

At this time, Wangqiu suddenly said, "Nie Lin, what did you say just now?"

Nie Lin raised his eyebrows and said, "Sir, the student said that the way of civil and martial arts is true knowledge and control!"

"Oh, you have to remind the old man when you go back, I'm going to write this sentence down, by the way, where did we just go?"

"Sir, we didn't say anything just now!" Nie Lin sweated wildly, and since Mr. had forgotten it, he didn't want to mention it again, so he quieted down and flipped through the book.

Mr. Wangqiu didn't read anymore, but took a nap, Nie Lin was afraid of disturbing him, so he breathed heavily and became quieter.

The carriage drove quietly on the road, just as Nie Lin was reading and devoting himself to the passage of time, and after an unknown amount of time, the carriage jolted slightly, and then stopped.

I heard Zheng Bo say: "Linzi, sir, you have already arrived at the academy!"

Nie Lin listened, then closed the book and got out of the carriage.

In front of you is a very wide area, the construction is simple and atmospheric, the style is elegant and magnificent, the layout is located in a well-established building complex, not far ahead, is a small river, the river water is crystal clear, occasionally small fish of various colors swim in it, both sides of the small river, weeping willow straight road, the surrounding flowers bloom, fragrant and fragrant.

After the carriage crossed the wide river bridge, it stopped at the gate of the academy, and saw a pair of sword and lion beasts sitting in front of the door, at this time the red lacquer gate opened, and a sword attendant, sitting quietly at the door, hung a plaque on the top, with the four characters of Zhongzheng charm: Tianlu Academy.
