Chapter 21 Enlightenment
Back in the room, Xiaozhi ran over and when she saw Lin Yan, her eyes burst into tears: "Guo Guo, what's wrong with your face!"
Lin Yan touched Xiaozhi's head: "It's okay, my brother is sparring with someone. Even though he got punched in the face, he won."
"Guo Guo is so awesome!"
Children don't think too much and soon become happy again: "Guo Guo, I want to go to the study!"
"Okay, Xiaozhi has recovered. I will send you to the study tomorrow."
There was a hint of worry in Lin Yanmei's eyes. Xiaozhi's condition came very suddenly a few days ago. She went to the medical clinic and the doctor couldn't explain why.
Now it seems to be intact. I don't know what the reason is and whether it will leave the root cause of the disease.
After playing with Xiaozhi for a while, Lin Yan took out the new bottle of Cuifeng Powder and took a sip.
In the room, he carefully practiced the five-form integration of "Five Bird Hands".
The room was narrow, so he had to be extremely careful with his movements. Fortunately, he now had full control over the "Five Bird Hands", and every move was just right, so he wouldn't be unable to perform it.
As the Five Forms Unity was practiced over and over again, an invisible force flowed throughout his body, making the qi and blood in his body vigorous.
The skin all over the body also began to turn red and hot, and the body was greedily sucking in blood, contracting and relaxing regularly, as if breathing, and each breath was obviously getting stronger.
In this way, Lin Yan practiced the five-form integration over and over again. Although his proficiency did not increase by half, the strength of his muscles and bones increased rapidly.
A day passed in such hard training.
On the second day, Lin Yan first sent Xiaozhi to Mu Qing's study, and then came to the martial arts training ground, only to find that Ma Ziming and Yuan Jing did not come, only Xu Hongchang, Ji Biao, and Lou Xing came.
Ji Biao was chosen first to step forward. Unexpectedly, Xu Hongchang suddenly took two steps forward and volunteered to sparring with Lin Yan along with Ji Biao.
"Junior Brother Xu, why are you not as resistant today as you were yesterday?"
A trace of passion flashed in Xu Hongchang's eyes: "Senior Brother Lin, I want to feel the power of your attack again!"
Ji Biao and Lou Xing's eyes widened, and they both trembled. The look in their eyes when they looked at Xu Hongchang changed greatly.
Is this kid addicted to being beaten?
Lin Yan glanced at him in surprise. Although he covered up the other four shapes, his true movements in the deer shape were displayed openly.
It seemed that Xu Hongchang understood something from his actions.
He nodded and said: "Okay, come on!"
The three of them were fighting in a melee, causing other disciples around them to look sideways and avoid them.
After practicing for half an hour as if there was no one around, Ji Biao was lying on the ground and refused to get up, but Xu Hongchang was in high spirits and still had more to say.
Lin Yan asked Lou Xing to replace Ji Biao, and they fought together again.
By the time it was time to eat at noon, Ji Biao had already fled, and Xu Hongchang and Lou Xing also had bruises on their noses and faces.
Especially Xu Hongchang, his whole body was limp and he had no strength left.
Lin Yan didn't get there either. He was hit several times on the face, and his chest, shoulders, and hands hurt everywhere, but he had better physical strength and had some energy left.
Xu Hongchang had a dog-legged look on his face, he leaned close to Lin Yan and said with a flattering smile: "Senior Brother Lin, you are hungry, I'll get you some food!"
Lin Yan glanced at him without any politeness, nodded, and agreed.
"Okay, just wait for me!"
Xu Hongchang limped and hurriedly walked towards the dining room.
Lou Xing also trembled and said goodbye to Lin Yan, chasing Xu Hongchang away.
After walking a while, Lou Xingqian glanced back and saw that he was far enough away from Lin Yan, so he hurriedly took the first few steps to catch up with Xu Hongchang.
"Old Xu, what are you planning? Have you made a plan? Okay, you!"
Xu Hongchang looked at Lou Xing with slight surprise: "Did you notice it too?"
"What did you find? I mean, did you deliberately please Lin Yan so that you could find an opportunity to give him a meal?"
"What?"
"Poison! Give him food, poison him, and knock him down! If we let Lin Yan continue to torture us, how can we have time to practice?"
Their natural talents were not good enough, so they fawned over Bai Xin, Tang Shi, and Mitai in order to get more advice from them, so as to increase the probability of passing the Yuedan evaluation.
If Lin Yan is delayed like this, there will be no time to practice martial arts at all, and he will definitely fail the Yuedan Examination!
"What!"
Xu Hongchang pushed Lou Xing away and said angrily, "How dare you poison Senior Brother Lin!"
"It wasn't me who poisoned him, it was you. You deliberately curry favor and gave him food, didn't you just want to poison him?"
"Nonsense!" Xu Hongchang was furious, "I respect Senior Brother Lin so much, how could I poison him!"
"...Old Xu, are you really addicted to beatings?"
Xu Hongchang snorted coldly: "Humph! Summer insects cannot speak of ice!"
After saying that, he shook his sleeves and moved forward again.
Lou Xing looked astonished. Could it be that Xu Hongchang's brain was damaged?
But then I thought about it, this Xu Hongchang was born in a medium-sized gang in Changqiufang. The disciples of this kind of gang, who have been around since childhood, are the best at adapting to the wind.
He was confused, but he didn't feel embarrassed, so he immediately rushed over and kept questioning Xu Hongchang.
Xu Hongchang ignored him at first, but after asking him again and again, he finally got tired of his questions and said impatiently: "You will know if you observe Senior Brother Lin's movements for yourself!"
"Aha?"
Not long after, Xu Hongchang respectfully delivered two full lunch boxes to Lin Yan.
"Senior Brother Lin!"
Lin Yan took the lunch box. After opening it, he raised his eyebrows slightly. In the lunch box, there were four large pieces of oily meat piled high on top of each other. He nodded: "I'm interested."
Xu Hongchang immediately grinned and said happily: "Compared to what Senior Brother Lin taught me, this is nothing!"
Lou Xing was eating his lunch box alone, and he felt a little disgusted when he saw the two brothers and brothers.
He had originally planned not to escape.
But I couldn't help but wonder what Xu Hongchang meant.
So with the mentality of taking a gamble, I also moved back.
It takes time for qi and blood to be digested, but the three of them only practiced for an hour in the morning, so there is still some qi and blood left.
After resting for a while, the three of them started practicing again.
This time, Lou Xing secretly paid attention. He found that during the confrontation, Xu Hongchang always stared at Lin Yan with blazing eyes, and from time to time there was a hint of surprise on his face.
What is this guy looking at?
So he followed suit, observing Lin Yan's movements while attacking and defending.
It is not easy to do this, and if you are distracted, you can easily get beaten.
Fortunately, he and Xu Hongchang were two against one, leaving him some room for observation.
When he first saw it, he didn't think it was strange.
But as he continued to observe, he soon realized that every move Lin Yan used to deal with them was actually an action from "Five Animal Hands".
Lou Xing was slightly surprised by this order. "Five Animal Hands" is a martial art for health maintenance. The movements are for health maintenance and cannot be used in actual combat.
This Lin Yan actually used the standard action of "Five Animal Hands"?
The reason why martial arts skills are secretly taught is because every movement has many details of the operation of force and cannot be changed randomly.
Lin Yan forcibly modified his movements, wasn't he afraid of hurting himself?
Then he turned to look at Xu Hongchang.
Well, this guy is actually imitating Lin Yan's movements!
Judging from his expression, he looked like he was enjoying himself and indulged in it.
Lou Xing shook his head.
His father and uncle are both martial artists, so he has been exposed to martial arts knowledge since he was a child.
He grew up listening to the warnings of his father and uncle since he was a child, saying that he must be cautious when practicing martial arts and never change the movements and sequences at will. He also gave him many examples of bright talents, but in the end he practiced the martial arts indiscriminately and injured himself. Horrible example of a cripple.
This Lin Yan is so courageous that he might be looking for death!
Thinking of this, Lou Xing's perception of Lin Yan and Xu Hongchang suddenly changed, and he suddenly established a psychological advantage. With an attitude of scrutinizing and criticizing, he continued to observe the two while sparring.
As he watched, although he felt that Lin Yan was messing around, he couldn't help but feel more and more surprised.
The deer intercepts, the tiger prances, the bear defends, the monkey attacks...
Lin Yan's movements were smooth and flexible.
Especially the deer form, which seems completely different from the deer form he practiced.
But when the general stood up, he felt a strange sense of harmony, which made people's hearts robbed by it.
just like……
What Lin Yan practiced was the genuine version, but what he practiced was the pirated version!
After a sparring session, Lin Yan waved his hand: "We will continue tomorrow."
Xu Hongchang's eyes were blazing: "Yes! Thank you, Senior Brother Lin!"
Lou Xing stood aside, panting, but in his mind, he was still recalling Lin Yan's stretching and agile movements just now.
Apart from anything else, the deer-shaped exercise is really beautiful and comfortable.
He had been practicing "Five Bird Hands" for more than a month. At this time, seeing his hunting heart, he unconsciously began to imitate Lin Yan's movements with his hands and feet.
There was no injury, but surprisingly it was very comfortable and smooth.
Lou Xing couldn't help but murmured to himself: "Aren't these movements changed randomly?"
He looked at Xu Hongchang next to him. Like him, he was also imitating Lin Yan's movements.
And the movements are much more complete than his.
"Hey, Lao Xu, you discovered it yesterday?"
Xu Hongchang snorted coldly and did not answer.
"Is it useful if you imitate Lin Yan's movements?"
Xu Hongchang frowned and glared at him: "I want to call you Senior Brother Lin!"
"Yes, yes, senior brother Lin. Tell me, what did you achieve by imitating his movements?"
Xu Hongchang acted alone and said nothing.
Lou Xing also knew Xu Hongchang's temper and was not in a hurry. He just chattered in his ear, trying to find out what results he achieved by imitating Lin Yan's movements.
He was not talented enough and felt that he would not be able to pass the monthly evaluation. Whenever he had a chance, he would try to catch it with a stick.
Xu Hongchang became irritated by reading it and couldn't help but cursed: "Wouldn't you know if you try it yourself?"
When Lou Xing heard this, he felt confident.
Xu Hongchang is a man who adapts to the wind and decides what to do, but he is still a good person, unlike Ma Ziming, who is a swindler.
Immediately, he coyly recalled Lin Yan's actions just now and began to imitate them.
