CHAPTER XVI
"Old Zhao, what's wrong?" In the icy river, several strong men stopped practicing and looked at the old man on the shore.
"It's okay, a night owl!" The old man known as Zhao Lao glanced around Lin Junxuan, and didn't seem to see anything, so he looked away.
"You can continue to practice," said the old man, waving his sleeves and turning to the naked man in the river.
In the artemisia grass, Lin Junxuan closed his mind, and finally took a slight breath when he saw the old man leaving with nothing.
"Master is right, the people of this world don't know anything about formations at all. The old man was able to rise into the air, and his strength should be good, but he didn't expect that he would be unable to penetrate the 'One Leaf Array'. "Just as the old man flew over, Lin Junxuan quickly scattered the five stones in his hand and spread them into a simple 'one-leaf array'.
In "Qimen Dunjia", the 'One Leaf Array' is just a small formation that does not enter the stream, but I didn't expect that even the old man was deceived.
The strength of the old man was very high, and Lin Junxuan didn't dare to move at all when he stayed in the Yiye Array, so he could only watch a few strong men practicing in the river through Artemisia Grass.
Seeing that there was no movement, the big men practiced boxing in the river again, and after practicing for a few more hours, these big men finally came ashore, and not far from the river, wiped their bodies, put on single clothes one by one, and then each put on a set of heavy armor.
"These people are the guards!" Seeing the heavy armor on those people, Lin Junxuan recognized their identities. He originally thought that some kind of sect was teaching his disciples to absorb the aura of the river, but he didn't expect that these strong men were actually government guards. The people in the Lin'an government are wearing soapcloth clothes, and only the palace guards will wear armor. In the entire Lin'an City, only the Surveyor Mansion, the Purple Marquis Mansion, and the Pingding Mansion are qualified to have a palace guard. These guards are all officers and soldiers who fought in the turbulent times for three hundred years, and they are all elites.
"Elder Zhao, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to practice by the river like this? After all, there is nothing to cover up and it is easy to be discovered. Dressed in armor, one of the brawny men who seemed to be the leader asked.
"In addition to this river in Lin'an City, can you find other rivers for the old man?" The old man glared at the head of the palace guard rather unhappily: "This 'Water Rhino Qi Method' can only be practiced in the water. It is best to practice the exercises of absorbing the aura of the rivers and seas, but in addition to this river, is there a river and a sea in this Lin'an City? No, it can only be like this. ”
The old man snorted coldly, and looked at several palace guards on the shore with disdain: "The old man is only responsible for teaching the six of you, and when you learn, I will teach the other guards in your mansion, this is the agreement I reached with your prince." As for practicing by the river at night, even if someone finds out, that's your business, and it has nothing to do with the old man!"
"Lord Wang?...... In the entire Lin'an City, the only one who can be called the prince is King Pingding, could it be him?" Lin Junxuan muttered in his heart. The strong men seemed to be quite afraid of that old Zhao, and they didn't dare to refute it when they heard the old man be so polite.
"It's almost dawn, let's go. Come back on time tomorrow. When the old man had finished speaking, his robe shook up, and he hurried along the riverbank, among the artemisia grass. He walked very fast, and disappeared in a moment.
"These sects are too arrogant, if it weren't for them, how could there be three hundred years of turmoil. If it is decided today, the Central Dragon Court will not dare to touch them, but when the world is decided, the Central Dragon Court will mobilize the Broken God Crossbow, and then destroy these sects one by one!" A strong man looked at the direction in which Zhao Lao had left and said indignantly.
"Shut up!' Is the matter of 'Dijing' also something you can talk about?" the head of the palace guard said with a sinking face, and several strong men around him also stared at him coldly.
The strong man was drunk by the leader, came back to his senses, seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and showed an uneasy look on his face: "My lord, I said the wrong thing." ”
"Next time there is such a situation, you don't need to tell the prince, I will kill you with my own hands!"
The leader snorted coldly and walked forward, several of the palace guards following closely. The direction they took happened to pass not far from Lin Junxuan, and at the moment when they passed by, Lin Junxuan clearly saw that there was a slightly protruding 'ding' on the back of these palace guard armors.
"Sure enough, it is the palace guards of the Pingding Palace, listening to them, the Central Dragon Court seems to have a very important position in the hearts of these palace guards, in the palace guard, you can't call it 'Central Dragon Court', you can only call it 'Imperial Palace', as for talking about the decision-making of the 'Central Dragon Court', it is even more impossible. ”
After the old man's palace guards left, Lin Junxuan didn't leave immediately, he instinctively felt a potential danger. King Dingding made an agreement with a certain sect to let one of the masters of these sects help train the guards, as if something big was going to happen. But both sides will be careful in such matters.
The old man surnamed Zhao seemed indifferent when he spoke to the six palace guards, and his face was scattered, but his eyes were not scattered, and the tone of his speech was not at all. Now, maybe he's hiding somewhere, waiting for me to come out. There's always no big mistake in being careful, and wait until dawn to go back. "The old man gave Lin Junxuan a very cold feeling, just like Yin Tianxuan, for this kind of person, Lin Junxuan is always extra careful.
The river bank is quiet, only the wind blows through the sound of artemisia grass and the murmuring of the river, time passes slowly, Lin Junxuan sits in the 'one leaf array', but there is no irritability in his heart, unconsciously, the sky has revealed a touch of fish belly white, Lin'an Street, some shops have also opened their doors.
"It seems that I am overthinking. "In the artemisia grass more than thirty zhang away from Lin Junxuanruo, a black shadow stood up, it was the old man who had obviously 'left' before, his eyes swept over the quiet artemisia grass by the river, the old man turned around and left slowly, when he left, there was no sound, and even Lin Junxuan didn't notice it.
After a while, there were gradually more pedestrians on Lin'an Street, and Lin Junxuan stood up: "It's time to go back." ”
When Lin Junxuan returned to the academy, Gan Ruye had already woken up, and he sat on a chair staring at the three books in his hand, as if he was thinking about something.
"Jun Xuan, when will you go back to the Purple Yi Hou Mansion?" Seeing Lin Junxuan coming in, Gan Ruye said.
"I'll go back in a while, and I'll go to the study in the morning to read with me. Lin Junxuan said.
After Gan Ruye was silent for a moment, he handed over the three books in his hand: "Jun Xuan, there may be very few opportunities for you to leave the mansion in the future." I can't teach you at any time, these three books are for you, you can take them back to the house, read them well. ”
"Thank you, teacher," Lin Junxuan took the book and looked down to see that it read "Three Guidelines".
Coming out of the school hall, the token was lit at the door of the Ziyi Marquis's Mansion, and the guards did not stop him, so Lin Junxuan returned to the wing.
The night spent in the academy was just a small episode in the life of Lin Junxuan's Mansion, the old housekeeper didn't ask, Huanglong and Huanghu were afraid of Lin Junxuan's strange methods, and Mrs. Ziyihou was kind and kind, and there was no one in the entire Purple-clothed Mansion.
As for the strong man he met by the river in Lin'an City yesterday, it was just a small episode, Lin Junxuan had no intention of delving into what kind of agreement King Pingding had reached with a certain sect, for a five-year-old child, this ability to delve into a certain conspiracy was still beyond his ability, so it was better to leave it to some capable people to do it.
Reading, practicing calligraphy, going to lecture halls, and practicing the 'Star Receiving Qi Method'...... , Lin Junxuan's life is plain and sufficient, and the Purple Marquis Mansion plays an important role in Lin'an City, and there will be no people who are not self-conscious to disturb him, so although Lin Junxuan has the token to leave the Purple Marquis Mansion, he has no intention of leaving the Purple Marquis Mansion for the time being.
......
Time flies, three years in a flash......
In the silent room, a handsome child with eyes like stars and a face like warm jade sat cross-legged under the window with a solemn face. Around his body, there were bits of misty starlight, which was beautiful. These starlight that emerged from the darkness and condensed like substance slowly seeped into the orifices of the young man's body under the window with some regularity.
When the bright moon slanted to the west and the east was slightly white, the handsome child who had closed his eyes and practiced finally opened his eyes, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes, like a comet tail flame across the sky.
After straightening the robe on his body, Lin Junxuan slowly stood up, pushed open the window, and a gust of cold wind blew in. In the west, a full moon hangs on the horizon, and it will be hidden.
"This Taiyin power is even stronger than the stars, but unfortunately, with my current realm, I can't cultivate, otherwise, this is a good source of spiritual power. Lin Junxuan looked at the full moon sinking in the west and thought silently. When the moon is in the sky, the power of the stars will be strongly disturbed, which is also the reason why it is written on the 'Star Receiving Qi Technique' that it is taboo to practice under the bright moon. In the wilderness, where there is no shade of trees, the power of the Taiyin produced by Haoyue is dozens of times stronger than that in the interior, and it is impossible to absorb the power of the stars at this time.
The full moon would have a powerful effect on cultivators who practiced the power of the stars, but it had little effect on Lin Junxuan, as the star-shaped pendant seemed to help isolate the power of Taiyin. Wear the drop chain. Lin Junxuan's influence on the power of Taiyin was minimal, and this effect would only be obvious when the star-shaped falling chain was removed.
"Look at the power!" Walking out of the room, Lin Junxuan walked through several pavilions and came to the vicinity of a rockery.
"Hey!" exhaled, punched out, and on the edge of the rockery, which was more than three feet high, a palm-sized gravel shattered with a 'click' and fell into the pool near the rockery.
"My strength now is almost the same as that of the martial artists who practiced regularly before the crossing. "In Lin Junxuan's world, people who exercise regularly can break several bricks stacked on top of each other with one palm, and in the army, this kind of person is the most. Although Lin Junxuan looks weak, he has been absorbing the power of the stars into the aperture of his body for three years, Lin Junxuan's body has been infiltrated by this power of the stars, and his strength has increased significantly, if it is not for the fact that his body has not fully developed, the power of the stars in his body can only be exerted partially, and Lin Junxuan's strength will be far more than that.
Lin Junxuan has been practicing the 'Star Qi Receiving Method' for more than three years, and the first step of 'Penetrating the Technique' has been completed in three months. In the three steps, it is just a process of adapting to the surname, just like the warm-up before an athlete runs, the 'Guanqiao' only introduces a small amount of star power, so that the body is gradually familiar with the power of the stars, so after this step of cultivation, it will only increase the strength of the physical body slightly, and there are no particularly obvious changes in the other. It is only when you practice the second step, 'Penetrating Qi', that the power will gradually manifest itself.
Under the nourishment of the power of the stars, the muscles of the whole body will become more tenacious, and the strength will also be greatly increased, which is manifested externally, that is, the strength increases. This is just like building a house, "through" is to lay the foundation, because the foundation is underground, this step will not have any obvious changes in the outer step, to the second step "guanqi" is equivalent to laying the foundation after building the house, to this step although the house has not been built, but the house has begun to take shape. When it comes to the third step of air conduction, it is equivalent to the house has been built, and you can see what the house looks like at a glance.
In fact, it only takes a year and a half to practice 'Guanqi', with Lin Junxuan's physique and the amplification effect of the star-shaped falling chain, Lin Junxuan should have completed the 'Guanqi' two years ago, but Lin Junxuan stayed in the step of 'Guanqi' for two years, and only recently, Lin Junxuan felt that the power of the stars that could be absorbed by the aperture in his body was almost saturated.
"After a while, practice 'Qi Conduction' again!" "Three years of time, coupled with the amplification effect of the star-shaped falling chain, Lin Junxuan could feel that a huge amount of star power had accumulated in the aperture of his body, but with so much star power, Lin Junxuan only used a very small part of it, and it was this part that made Lin Junxuan have a power that was completely different from his age. This huge star power is stored in the body, although it cannot be fully utilized by Lin Junxuan, but these huge star powers have formed a protective film in Lin Junxuan's body, which can greatly weaken external attacks.
Dongfang is slightly pale, and he will go to the study in a while, he has not slept all night, but Lin Junxuan does not feel very sleepy, this is the benefit of cultivation, the power of the stars can not only enhance the strength of the body, but also have the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind.
"Today, the master said that he would take them to the Qingqing, and I have to go back and prepare. Lin Junxuan pushed open the door and returned to the room......
