Chapter 2 Library Library
Follow the canal that leads into the manor all the way west, and at the end of the water, a small lake appears surrounded by mountains and towering trees.
On the lake, a nine-curved covered bridge connects the two banks, and the water mist is misty above the lake in the early morning, like a veil floating on it. The lakes and peaks are the same color as the mountains and rivers.
Seeing such a beautiful scenery, Zhang Qi, who had always been worried, couldn't help but feel relieved, and he couldn't wait to immerse himself in it and didn't want to think of those disturbing things. You know, this kind of beauty is even more appealing to the soul living in the world of technology.
Crossing the nine-curved covered bridge and walking on the lake, a mountain gap leading to the sky at the end of the bridge flashed in front of you, it seemed that there was no road but turned the mountain gap into the valley, and a nine-story attic appeared on the mountain wall at the mouth of the valley. Like a hanging pavilion hidden in layers of mist, the morning light sprinkled on the attic emitted a faint golden light, and like the sky Qiongyu.
In the valley, at the foot of the mountain, a winding stone path goes deep into the dense forest in the mountain, and you can hear the chirping of the early birds in the dense forest, and from time to time it is like the sound of ding dong on the looming stream stone, as if you are in a fairyland. It didn't take too long to climb, but Zhang Kun walked for half an hour before he came to the 'Library Pavilion'.
It wasn't until I walked into Zhang Ke that I found that the 'Library Pavilion' was built next to the mountain, and the attic built of ebony was matched with the bluestone mountain wall, how to look at it as if it were natural, without a trace of carving. It doesn't look like a human thing.
Each floor of the nine-storey attic is a cornice, bucket arch, and the beast is at the corner. The paved tiles are dark and flashing with the heaviness of metal. Each floor is the same size and area, and there is no prohibition that the higher the attic is, the smaller the attic. Full of atmosphere.
Retracting his appreciation, Zhang Ke walked into it quickly, and before he noticed the layout in the building, a voice suddenly came from his ears.
"Who's coming?!"
Busy following the prestige, there is a single quiet room on the left side of the entrance, and this old man sits on a stone couch in the quiet room, which is where the voice comes from.
Looking at the old man, he was startled, perhaps because the hair was too vigorous, the old man was like a hairy person, his long snow-white hair was scattered down, and the eyebrows and beard on his face were also snow-white, making the old man seem to be wrapped in hair.
A ray of morning light came out of the window lattice and projected onto the old man's body, as if his bones were there and not moving.
Although I don't know the origin of this old man, the person who can appear here must also be the existence of the elders of the Zhang family, Zhang Ke hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Boy, Zhang Ke greets you the old man." ”
"Do you want to enter the 'Library Pavilion'?" the old man's eyes closed slightly, but he did not open them as he spoke.
"Yes, the boy has such a plan, I don't know what you always say. ”
"Look to the left. The old man's eyes continued to close slightly, and he said to Zhang Kun.
"Hmm!" Zhang Ke looked to the left, and found that there was a strip table there, and on top of the strip table were a few booklets. Some of the booklets are still open.
"When you see it, find your name on it. Bring it to me again. ”
"Oh. Only then did Zhang Kun understand that those books were the roster of the Zhang family's disciples. Hurriedly walked over and checked it out line by row.
Fortunately, these rosters are quite regulated, divided into several volumes according to the year of birth, Zhang Ke quickly found his name on the roster of his birth year, and found that he was still familiar with the name when he found the name.
And those names already have annotations on them, indicating when they entered the 'Library Pavilion', and only his name is blank, which means that these disciples do not have the right to enter the 'Library Pavilion' once.
Holding the roster with his own name in both hands, Zhang Ke respectfully walked up to the old man and said, "Look at it, this is my name." ”
"Hold your left hand out. The old man glanced at the roster that Zhang Qi had taken over, and made such a request.
Hearing the old man say this, Zhang Kun's heart was tight, he knew what this meant, that is, to check whether he had succeeded in 'building a foundation', and to know that the condition for entering the 'Library Pavilion' was that the disciple needed to reach the 'foundation building' period.
It's bad, Zhang Kun knows his own affairs, although he has succeeded in 'building the foundation' when he was five years old, but until now there is no internal force in his dantian, and the existence of no internal force means that the 'foundation' is unsuccessful.
At the same time that Zhang Kun stretched out his left hand in front of the old man, the old man's hand was already on Zhang Kun's left wrist.
A warm current of heat entered the body along the meridians above Zhang Qi's left arm.
"Huh?!" Suddenly, the old man's eyes stared at Zhang Ke with wide eyes. It was like a lightning bolt in the void room, and Zhang Qi was stared at uncomfortably. The heavy pressure made Zhang Kun support his body hard, and he was afraid that he would lie down if he didn't support it.
It's bad, Zhang Kun secretly complained in his heart, it seems that the old man knows that there is no internal force in his dantian, so he thinks he wants to get by?
It turned out that it was not what Zhang Ke imagined, but when the old man's internal force entered Zhang Ke's dantian, it was like entering a black hole, and it disappeared quickly.
Even Zhang Kun didn't expect this kind of thing, the internal force he had cultivated before would disappear like this, but he didn't expect that even the external internal force would have such a situation.
Although Zhang Ke was very worried in the face of this matter, because of the purity of the old man's internal force, this not a lot of internal force made Zhang Kun feel the warmth of his limbs, and at this moment it seemed that his whole body was full of strength, which could be regarded as a great benefit.
This also made Zhang Kun can't help but think of what kind of scene would happen if he absorbed all the internal force in the old man's body into his body.
In fact, the old man was even more frightened, thanks to the good control of the internal force in his body, so that while feeling that something was wrong, he quickly isolated the internal force that entered Zhang Kun's body, otherwise, it is estimated that the internal force in his body will enter Zhang Kun's body along this channel.
The old man looked at Zhang Ke for a long time, and didn't say anything, but nodded and said to Zhang Ke: "Go in, try to go to the highest floor, and see your creation." After saying that, the old man's eyes closed again, and he returned to his original appearance.
"Hmm!?" After hearing the old man's words, Zhang Kun was stunned in his heart, what did this mean, but he didn't have time to think about it, he turned around and walked towards the building after saluting the old man.
What Zhang Ke didn't know was that when he turned to leave, the old man's eyes opened again, and a pair of clear eyes that could not appear on the old man's body showed an endless look of doubt.
Zhang Ke was thinking about the meaning of the old man's last sentence as he walked, but he knew that entering here was to find a suitable set of exercises for his disciples to continue to cultivate. If you say it in this sense, the higher the level of the exercises, the better it is.
But why did the old man remind himself? Could it be because of the changes that occurred when he tested himself before?
Well, I really can't figure it out. In the end, Zhang Kun still wanted to see the walking steps, this is also a matter of luck, no one has ever told himself what kind of exercises are advanced exercises. Even if you see it, you can't tell the difference.
Besides, even if it is a high-level exercise, for a disciple who can't accumulate his dantian, he is blind.
Hey, it's good to be able to find a high-level move according to what the fourth grandfather said.
The 'Library Cabinet' is like a library, with rows of bookshelves taking up the space.
Since the old man told himself that the higher the level, the better, Zhang Kun didn't bother to look through the exercises and classics at this level.
There is a staircase on the left and right sides of the hall leading to the upper floors.
Climbing up the stairs, this staircase is arranged according to the number of thirty-nine.
At first, when Zhang Kun went up to the third order, everything seemed normal, but when his right foot stepped up to the fourth order, he suddenly felt that his body was much heavier, as if he was carrying a heavy load.
And as you go up. The heavier the feeling is, the stronger.
By the time Zhang Kun reached the last three levels, Zhang Kun already felt that his body was about to be overwhelmed.
But fortunately, although Zhang Kun can't accumulate strength in the dantian, his body is still strong enough after so many years of tempering.
With the support of gritted teeth, he still went up to the second layer.
After coming to the second floor, Zhang Kun just swept the situation here with his eyes, and he was not ready to stay, but to continue, because the old man's words explained. The higher the level, the more advanced the exercises.
So what Zhang Ke means is to climb to the higher floors as much as possible. On the second floor, I only regained my strength.
The stairs to the third floor are also arranged by the number of thirty-nines, and when Zhang Kun stepped on the stairs, he already felt the heavy pressure.
In the first twenty-four steps, although Zhang Qi was under more and more pressure. But under the gritted teeth and persistence, he can still move forward step by step.
But just when there were three steps left in the staircase, this feeling reached its greatest level. For a time, Zhang Ke could not take a step.
At this time, Zhang Kun could no longer stand, but was lying on the stairs, using his hands and feet together.
The pain in his body was as if he had been torn, and the strong pressure made it extremely difficult for Zhang Qi to raise his head now.
At this time, Zhang Kun felt that his strength had been exhausted, and his body's endurance had reached a limit.
It's as if the body is going to collapse at any moment in the next moment.
