He was dressed in black and was as withered as a tree. He looked like an old pine tree. His face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were as clear and quiet as a starry lake, extremely deep.

Xia Wufeng clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Hu, we want to go in and have a look."

"Where is the order from the Lake Lord?" the old man asked indifferently.

Li Mu took out the Lake Lord's Order and handed it to the old man. He glanced at the jade plaque, looked Li Muchan up and down, and nodded: "You can go in."

He pointed at Xia Wufeng again: "Xiao Xia, you can't do it!"

Xia Wufeng suddenly smiled bitterly: "Mr. Hu, why don't you be accommodating?"

Mr. Hu's eyes widened and he snorted coldly: "Stop talking nonsense and get out of here. Don't let me chase people away!"

Xia Wufeng turned to look at Li Muchan and spread his hands: "There is nothing you can do, I can't get in. You go in by yourself and be careful."

Li Muchan nodded slowly.

"Okay, little guy, come with me!" Mr. Hu waved, turned around and walked inside.

Li Muchan hurriedly hugged Xia Wufeng and turned to follow. As Mr. Hu entered the hall, his eyes suddenly darkened, and then he slowly adapted.

Mr. Hu stepped on the floor of the main hall and walked slowly inside. He turned around and said, "Who are you? I've never seen you before. You're new here?"

Li Muchan hurriedly said: "Young man Li Zhu, you have been in the lake for a year."

Mr. Hu walked up the east escalator and said as he walked up: "Yes, you have reached this point after practicing kung fu for a year. Did you practice martial arts before entering the lake?"

Li Muchan nodded: "Yes, I have practiced a set of sword techniques."

"Not bad, not bad. You have such cultivation at such a young age. What kind of mental skills have you practiced?" Mr. Hu nodded, very pleased.

Li Muchan said: "Qi training in ancient times."

"Oh——?" Mr. Hu suddenly stopped and turned to look at him: "Ancient Qi training?"

Li Muchan nodded: "Yes."

Mr. Hu showed a smile and said with a smile: "Good guy, it seems that you are very qualified. The lake master finally dares to let people practice this weird thing!"

When we first met, he was cold and unapproachable, but now he became talkative.

Mr. Hu shook his head and sighed: "The ancient qi training technique is really not an ordinary mental method. I have practiced it before, but I don't dare to practice it anymore. This mental method is said to be able to live forever, but I think it can kill you!"

Li Muchan smiled and nodded: "It is indeed difficult to practice."

Hu Lao turned around and continued walking up, while asking: "Looking at your cultivation, have you become rustic?"

Li Muchan said: "Yes, I have already practiced it."

"Not bad, not bad, really good!" Mr. Hu nodded.

While the two were talking, they went up to the second floor. The building was very quiet, with only one room after another, and no one seemed to be there. Mr. Hu turned around and asked: "What kind of information do you want to see?"

Li Muchan said: "From the Lin family."

"Well, the Lin family, one of the two great families?" Mr. Hu asked.

Li Muchan nodded.

Mr. Hu's eyes lit up: "Are you going to disturb the Lin family?"

Li Muchan shook his head: "I was greeted warmly by the Lin family when I went out this time. I want to see their information. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be in danger. Sooner or later, I will repay them."

"Hehe..." Mr. Hu laughed, shook his head and said: "I guess these guys from the Lin family are restless, and their ambitions are indeed boundless!"

He understood what Li Muchan said. He was obviously bullied by the Lin family. As a disciple of Xinghu Xiaozhu, he naturally wanted to take revenge.

Li Muchan said: "Mr. Hu guessed it?"

Mr. Hu sneered and said: "I see that the Lin family's intelligence has been very active in the past five years. They have exchanged information and accepted it. Their strength has continued to grow, and their ambitions will naturally grow accordingly. I didn't expect that they would actually target us. Hehe,

Really looking for death!"

Li Muchan said: "What can Mr. Hu do?"

Mr. Hu shook his head: "I'm just a bad old man who manages intelligence. What can I do?"

Li Muchan looked at him, smiled and said nothing more.

******************************************

Mr. Hu led him to the third room in the middle and pointed: "This is all the Lin family's information. Take your time and read it. There is a lot. If you have any questions, please call me."

"Yes, thank you, Mr. Hu." Li Muchan nodded, clasped his fists in a salute, and pushed the door open.

The room was well decorated, with a table and a chair, and bookshelves on three walls. There were stacks of books on the bookshelves. Li Muchan glanced at it and estimated that there were about a thousand books.

He casually picked up a book on the east bookshelf. The cover had the four characters "Lin Family Tree" on it. He opened it and looked at it. There were rows of densely packed names.

I put down one book, and then picked out the one below, which said "One of the branches of the Lin family", and then there were rows of names on it, followed by some brief introductions.

He turned around and went to the bookshelf on the west side, and pulled out a book at random, "The Secret Skills of the Lin Family". He felt refreshed and continued to read. It was an introduction to the Lin family's martial arts. There was no mental method, only some descriptions, such as "The Stele-Smashing Hand: The palm is like a mountain.

When it reaches Yang, it has the power to break stone and crack metal. Before the palm is released, the palm turns black and shrinks in a circle. The palm is released very fast, and the moves are wide open and closed. The method can be broken by force, or it can be dealt with with small skills."

Li Muchan smiled and nodded. He simply moved a pile and put it on the table. Then he sat on a chair and read slowly, one by one, without any rush.

Mr. Hu came back soon, carrying a cup of tea, brought it to the table and said with a smile: "When you finish the tea, call me and I will be downstairs."

Li Muchan smiled and said: "Don't bother Mr. Hu, just give me a few fruits."

"What kind do you want to eat?" Mr. Hu asked.

Li Muchan said: "It doesn't matter, it's better to quench your thirst than drinking tea."

"That's true. It seems that you have also read books. Okay, I'll pick some." He nodded with a smile, his wrinkled face like a chrysanthemum.

Li Muchan picked up the tea and took a sip. The pen and ink next to him did not move. He had the ability of photographic memory. He did not need to take notes, it was directly burned into his mind and he could bring it up at any time.

After a while, Mr. Hu came in with a plate of fruit, including peaches, plums, apricots, and some strange-shaped fruits that Li Muchan had never seen before.

After Li Muchan thanked him, Mr. Hu stopped showing up.

There were a total of one thousand and sixty-two books, and Li Muchan read them in ten days. During these seven days, except for eating, drinking, and defecating, he never left the house.

Ten days later, he went to several rooms to read a few books, then said goodbye to Mr. Hu and returned to his waterside pavilion. After washing, he came to Luo Xing Pavilion.

Leng Wushuang was already waiting there, still dressed in white robe, fluttering like a fairy, like white jade, like a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

Li Muchan handed over the jade tablet and said with a smile: "Lord of the Lake, I want to learn the best Qing Gong."

"The best Qing Gong?" Leng Wushuang showed a smile, shook his head and said: "There is no best way to say Qing Gong, everyone has their own emphasis."

Li Muchan frowned.

Leng Wushuang said: "After reading the Lin family's information, what do you think?"

Li Muchan sighed: "It is indeed powerful and cannot be underestimated, so I want to find out more about it."

"Well, then you should learn to change your appearance." Leng Wushuang said.
