Qin Cheng noticed that Professor Lin was lost in thought as he looked at the woman in the photo, as if he was reminiscing about the past.
Wang Xuan felt that Professor Lin was a man with a story.
He had entered the tomb of the pre-Qin dynasty, inherited the legacy of a Taoist priest, survived even though two large holes appeared in his chest, and even knew a very beautiful woman who had been popular in the New Star for a long time.
And this was just a glimpse of his experience, from which we can see that Professor Lin was not a simple person in the past.
"Professor, don't be sad, isn't it just a woman? Forget about the past." Qin Cheng spoke, destroying the quiet atmosphere.
Professor Lin shook his head: "What are you thinking about? I just have some feelings today. Besides, I am purely appreciating, nothing else."
Qin Cheng felt that this was familiar. He seemed to have said the words "pure appreciation" not long ago, and he immediately thought of Zhao Qinghan.
"I understand you very well!" Qin Cheng said, pretending to have met a confidant.
Wang Xuan said, "The woman in the photo... looks a bit like Zhao Qinghan."
Qin Cheng looked at her carefully and found that they were indeed similar.
The expression on his face suddenly became very wonderful, and he finally sighed, "Professor, we have similar understandings of beauty. I think we can become close friends regardless of age!"
Professor Lin slapped him directly and told him that the person in the photo was Zhao Qinghan's grandmother.
Qin Cheng's face fell again when he heard this. Is this the goddess' grandmother? !
Wang Xuan immediately understood why he saw Zhao Qinghan at the door before, because the two families had a lot of connections. It was because of seeing the old friend that Professor Lin opened the album again tonight.
Wang Xuan had realized that Professor Lin might go to see this woman for him, and he didn't want the old man to break his years of peace of mind.
"Professor Lin, you don't have to worry about my affairs. I have a preliminary idea and should be able to solve the problem."
Professor Lin was surprised. He just lowered his head to look at the photo for a while, and Wang Xuan could guess what he wanted to do. He was quick-witted and was indeed suitable for the path of the old art.
"In ancient times, alchemists fought with fierce beasts and struggled with the sky for their lives. Although they were human, they dared to coexist and shine with the sun and the moon. I have received this inheritance and want to follow the path of the old art. If I can't even solve such a small problem, what should I do when I encounter a life-and-death event in the future?"
Wang Xuan is a grateful person. He is mainly worried that Professor Lin will think about the past when he goes to see his old friend, destroying the peace and indifference in his heart for many years. After all, some things have been put down by the old man long ago, and it is not appropriate to reveal them again.
"Okay, solve it yourself!" Professor Lin smiled. His own road was broken, and he really wanted to see a latecomer take the old art road to the end.
Most of the conversations that night revolved around the old techniques. Wang Xuan was fascinated by the alchemist tradition of the pre-Qin era.
Because, in terms of gathering qi, internal cultivation, and meditation, this old method is unique and can be called extraordinary and extremely remarkable.
Professor Lin told him that the root method in the experimental class was actually very strong, but not complete, so it seemed incomparable to this pre-Qin secret method.
However, as Wang Xuan studied, he felt more and more exhausted. The records at the end were very vague. Is it really a feasible root method?
For example, the article mentioned a certain area. Before it arrived, it was barren. Later, it wrote about black soil. As for the later... the records were even more vague.
Wang Xuan was puzzled and asked Professor Lin on the spot.
"When you go back, it's best to read some books related to the old sects, Taoist and Buddhist. They have some discussions on the terms and phenomena of the pre-Qin period. Looking back at this method, you will gain something."
Professor Lin explained to him that some of the descriptions should be related to the "Huangting Neijing Tu".
The pre-Qin period is too far away from now, and some words and phenomena need to be understood with the help of some later classics.
As Professor Lin explained, he mentioned Ge Hong's "Baopuzi" and Chen Tuan's "Wujitu".
Wang Xuan nodded and took notes carefully.
Qin Cheng listened to it and felt a headache. If he wanted to learn the inheritance of the alchemists, he had to read the Taoist Canon first?
They talked until late, and Professor Lin told Wang Xuan everything he knew. He had consulted a lot of classics over the years, which was how he could decipher the inheritance of the alchemists.
Wang Xuan gained a lot, but he felt that it was necessary to read more books from the old times after returning.
…
In the early morning, Wang Xuan completely changed his Qi-gathering technique and internal cultivation method, and practiced according to the inheritance of the alchemists, and the result was huge.
In the morning glow, he was sweating profusely, and his metabolism was faster than before, as if some impurities were discharged from his body, and his body surface was sticky.
He felt better than ever, light and healthy, full of vitality, vigorous spirit, and a strong power in his body.
"I want to go to Nova!" He said firmly, and he would work hard to improve his strength in the near future to prepare for going to Nova.
"Wang Xuan!" Someone called him from a distance.
Soon, Zhou Kun came over, with a handsome face and a slightly melancholy temperament, but after appearing here, he showed a smile from the heart.
"You really haven't left the campus yet, and you're still practicing the old technique. You're really stuck in it."
At this point, he lowered his voice: "Listen to my advice, make preparations early, the old technique... has been abandoned by Xinxing, and new things have appeared."
Hearing his words, Wang Xuan felt warm in his heart. Although he had already deduced it, he still thanked Zhou Kun.
"I will move out in two days, but I will still stay in this city. The job has basically been confirmed, and I will report in five days."
Zhou Kun sighed after hearing this: "I hope everything goes well for you, and we can get together again in the future."
Then he told him his intention, there was a party in the evening, and asked him if he wanted to go.
The selected people will leave the old land and go to Xinxing in four days. They are going to get together, because after arriving in Xinxing, each of them should have their own place to go and will be separated.
Zhou Kun said, "Don't worry, it's just a simple gathering. There will be no trouble in the friendship of four years of classmates. It's mainly to commemorate the end of the last four years of our lives. From now on, we will enter the big dye vat of society and accept all kinds of beatings and erosion."
Wang Xuan didn't speak. He didn't care whether there would be any trouble. He just wondered if it would cause trouble for others.
"Go, there is the person you want to see the most." Zhou Kun said. He was willing to chat with Wang Xuan and drink to his heart's content.
Wang Xuan was speechless. It seemed that he had misunderstood. There was no one he wanted to see the most. Just don't cause trouble.
"Some of the students who were not selected in the experimental class have not left yet and are also in this city." Wang Xuan told him.
Zhou Kun said, "I will notify them all, but some people are watching you and want to know whether you will go or not."
Although the people who were selected to go to Xinxing and the students who stayed in the old land were familiar with each other and many of them had a good relationship, such a gathering still seemed to make people feel strange.
"Okay, I'll go." Wang Xuan nodded.
As soon as Zhou Kun left, Qin Cheng called: "Old Wang, they are going to have a party and asked me to go too. I'm really confused. I'm not going to Xinxing, but only to Xinyue. Are you going?"
Wang Xuan first corrected the way he addressed him, and then said: "You are standing on the moon above their heads, looking down at them every day. What are you worried about? Come pick me up in the evening and go together."
Qin Cheng immediately shouted happily: "Okay, I've been waiting for you to say this. I was actually afraid that you wouldn't go!"
