Chapter 41: Closed disciples
Text]
? Seeing Lin Xifan's stunned expression, the old man Lin smiled and said, "What's so surprising about this? In fact, if your internal skills have reached my level, you can do it."
"Uh, what did you say..." Lin Xifan was shocked. He had never told anyone about his cultivation of the Five Hearts toward Heaven, and he had never been seen through. Could it be that the old man could see it?
Old man Lin smiled and then turned around and walked towards the hall, "Come here, I'll explain it to you in detail, so that you little guy will not practice stupidly alone and make progress very slowly."
Lin Xifan responded. Now he finally knew that Old Man Lin had indeed seen that he had cultivated his internal skills, and from his words, he could also tell that his cultivation method did not seem to be very correct, so he made progress so slowly.
The two sat down face to face in the hall, and Old Man Lin spoke first, "You are practicing the Five Hearts to the Heaven, right?"
"Uh, how did you know?" Lin Xifan was shocked again. If Old Man Lin knew that he had practiced internal skills, this might have been a characteristic of some kind of internal skills that Old Man Lin could see, but as for what he was practicing, how did this old man know?
"Idiot!" Old Man Lin scolded: "Do you think no one knows if you hide in the room every night to practice? Your room is not airtight.
When Lin Xifan heard Old Man Lin’s scolding, he couldn’t help but blush. In fact, he was very cautious when he was in the military region, but when he came here, he didn’t take an old drunkard like Old Man Lin seriously at all, so Old Man Lin knew this, and ultimately it was due to his carelessness.
"However, even if you practice like this, you have already found it to this stage, which proves that your qualifications are good. As long as you follow my teachings, you can practice to the third level of the Five Hearts to Heaven within two years."
Lin Xifan was overjoyed and asked, "Really, did that mean that I can also punch the "apt" like you?"
"Is your goal just that little bit?" Old Man Lin suddenly raised his face and said, "I made progress so slowly because I didn't have the guidance of a famous teacher, but now you are different. If you have my guidance, when you reach the third level, you will keep your ability to hit "acupoints" from the air."
Lin Xifan was silent. As the saying goes, too much will lead to mistakes. It seems that he must listen to Old Man Lin’s explanation obediently so that he will not be scolded.
"Now you know that I am practicing internal skills, so next, I will tell you about the schools of practicing internal skills. In fact, although the Wudang Shaolin mentioned in people are big sects, after the War of Resistance Against Japan, those big sects have actually disappeared. What remains now are actually some relatively small sects."
"Just like the Five Elements Going to Heaven, the Five Elements Teaching is actually a relatively common practice method in our Five Elements Teaching. In addition to the Five Elements Teaching, there are also the Sun and Moon Gate, the South Fist and North Leg. The so-called righteousness and evilness. The few I just mentioned are all the righteous sects, and there are only two evil sects left, one is the Blood Seal Gate and the other is the Restoration Gate."
Lin Xifan couldn't help but wonder and asked, "But why have I never heard of such things when I was in the army? I remember that I also learned from a master of internal skills named Zhang Yuan for a while three years ago."
"Hmph, how can those people compare with those famous sects? Because most of the remaining sects have become some ancient existences in China, the headquarters of many families have actually moved abroad, and now we are the only Five Elements Sects in China."
Lin Xifan asked again: "So, where is the headquarters of our Five Elements Sect?"
“It’s right here.”
"What? Here?" Lin Xifan's original excitement came to an abrupt end, and he looked at Old Man Lin with an incredible look.
Old man Lin said calmly: "Our Five Elements Sect fell apart decades ago. Those who do business and those who do official business are now only the leader, the commander is left."
"You won't tell me that you are the leader of the Five Elements Sect, are you?"
"You guessed it right, you are very smart!" Old Man Lin said happily.
Lin Xifan was sweating coldly on his forehead. Such a sect is also considered a big sect. It is also a pity that Old Man Lin could say it, "Old man, then I will bless you first. It is actually a good thing to be such a bare leader, because he has no one to take care of, and he can be free to be the leader."
"Who said I don't have someone to care about? Aren't you?"
Lin Xifan smiled and said, "It's a pity that I'm not from your Five Elements Sect. If you want to take care of others, you must work hard and strive to achieve the early development of the Five Elements Sect." As he said that, Lin Xifan stood up and prepared to leave.
With a terrible sound, Old Man Lin appeared in front of Lin Xifan in an instant, which really scared Lin Xifan. Old Man Lin opened his hands and blocked Lin Xifan's way, and said, "I'm old after all, and I'm afraid I can't do anything like the Everbright Five Elements Sect, so I have to take you as a closed disciple. Then the important task of Everbright Five Elements Sect will fall on you in the future."
"What falls on me? I don't care. In short, I won't be your disciple." Lin Xifan said, "Just, what achievements can such a small sect achieve?
Old Man Lin laughed and said, "Actually, when I told you just now, I forgot to tell you something. Decades ago, the competition among various sects overseas was very fierce. Because our Five Elements Teachings were weak, we became the targets of the major sects to destroy them. At that time, I pretended to die before I could return to China."
"So what?" Lin Xifan felt something was wrong in his heart.
"What do you think? If other sects know that I am still alive, they will definitely send someone to kill me. And you have just learned about my existence, so in order not to let your whereabouts be revealed, I have to kill someone to silence me."
"Ah?" Lin Xifan took a few steps back and said with a grievance: "Old man, you can't cheat me. Just now, you were obviously holding me to listen to you."
"I said mine, I remember I didn't force you at that time." Old Man Lin said.
"Uh!" Lin Xifan was speechless. What else could he say at this time? It was indeed that way just now. Old Man Lin did not force himself to listen, but the problem was that he didn't know that the problem would be so serious after listening!
At this time, Old Man Lin suddenly pulled out a bag from his waist and said, "Actually, it is not a very unlucky to join our Five Elements Sect, because if you inherit my mantle, you can inherit all these things." Old Man Lin put the bag in Lin Xifan's hands.
Lin Xifan asked hesitantly: "When I read these things, I know more about your secrets. If I don't join the Five Elements Sect, wouldn't I be even more deadly?"
Old Man Lin glanced at Lin Xifan and said, "Idiot, you just heard me and you will die if you don't join. You will die at all. Why don't you read more? Maybe after reading it, you want to join?" At this moment, Old Man Lin showed a confident smile on his face, as if he was saying that if he saw these Lin Xifans still didn't want to join, then Lin Xifan would be an idiot.
Taking a deep breath, Lin Xifan made up his mind and slowly opened the bag in his hand.
"Uh, old man, what good things are you doing? Where did you get these things?" Looking at the things in the bag, Lin Xifan was completely confused. He saw that three of them were deposits from Swiss banks, and each of them was calculated for tens of billions of dollars. In addition, some were land deeds, land deeds of some large manors in various European countries, and those manors were calculated in units such as tens of millions of acres.
All of these things are in the name of a person, and this person is named Lin Tiannan.
"Hehe, are you surprised?" Old Man Lin said proudly: "These things are all accumulated over the past few decades. With these things, such as wealthy and high-ranking officials, they are nothing in my eyes. Boy, let me be honest. If you enter the Five Elements Gate, these things will be yours."
Lin Xifan was silent for a while and said, "Okay, I am willing to worship your door. Oh, it seems that I am destined to be a slave to money."
"Tsk, save it, you are for life." Old man Lin looked at Lin Xifan with contempt.
Lin Xifan said thoughtfully: "Actually, it's not a mistake for me to live. Do I have to seek death in such a situation? Moreover, I still have a lot to do!" At this time, Lin Xifan's mind was his eight dead brothers who were unknown.
"You know that it would be great to think about it like this. Okay, now you are my close disciple." Old Man Lin smiled, and a trace of treacherousness appeared in his eyes.
㊣(7) "Uh, that's it? Don't you need to be a disciple or something?" Lin Xifan was stunned. Now he couldn't understand what Old Man Lin meant. He wanted to worship the Five Elements Sect, but he didn't have to be a disciple?
"Add to be a disciple?" Old Man Lin shook his head and said, "Those things are outdated, you don't need to call me master or something. Just call me old man like this. And what we are popular now is to give gifts, just like the wine you have hidden upstairs. You just agreed to give me, so you won't regret it now, right?" As he said that, he showed a look of greed.
Lin Xifan gave the old man Lin a blank look and said, "Okay, wait a moment." As he said that, he turned around and walked down with a few bottles of wine and placed it on the table.
Old Man Lin looked at the table full of fine wine, and was so excited that he could not put it down. Lin Xifan was helpless. Although Old Man Lin's ability impressed him, such an alcoholic made him feel that he had entered the wrong "door". Can such a master teach good disciples?
Thinking of this, Lin Xifan suddenly remembered the promise that Qian Beibei would go to the hospital together, so he said, "Old man, I want to accompany Beibei to the hospital and leave first."
"Yeah," Old Man Lin responded casually, and now he had focused all his attention on the fine wine in front of him.
Lin Xifan walked out of the door and walked about 300 meters away, but heard the roar of the old man Lin behind him: "Hey, boy, where is that bottle of Lafite from 1982?"
Lin Xifan waved his hand back and replied, "That kind of good wine will not be ruined by you, the old man, I will use it for collection." As he said that, he quickly walked towards Qian Beibei's house, leaving Old Man Lin's roar completely behind him. It was a happy thing to be able to put Old Man Lin along.
However, he became the "stop" disciple of Old Man Lin, which made Lin Xifan extremely depressed.
