The old man looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. The sound was like the roar of thunder, which made Lin Ruhai and Jia Min's ears buzz. They were frightened and turned pale for a moment.
Seeing the uneasy expressions on the two of them, the eldest man stopped laughing and said calmly: "It seems that my brother-in-law is obsessed with books and he doesn't know much about the records of the founding war left by his ancestors!"
Lin Ruhai's handsome face turned red and he said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, don't talk nonsense. I have also read the war records of my ancestors, but the contents are too exaggerated!"
"Do you think the strength of those founding generals is too terrifying and unreal?"
The elder smiled and asked, "You still think the records of your ancestors are exaggerated?"
Lin Ruhai opened her mouth and said nothing, acquiescing to the elder's statement.
Just kidding, in the war records of the ancestors of the Lin family, there are always beheading generals, seizing flags, and fierce charges. Each general is incredibly strong, and one general can be compared to a hundred-man army.
Not only were the generals under Taizu of Da Qi powerful, but the strength of the generals at the end of the previous dynasty was horribly exaggerated, as if each of them could kill ten thousand enemies with a thousand men.
Lin Ruhai is not a country man who has never seen the world. Looking at the current Qi army, how can there be such a powerful general?
As the official position gets higher and higher, the number of masters I have seen is also quite large. Even in the Yanxunshi Censor's Mansion, there are many well-known masters guarding the palace, as well as forbidden masters sent by the Supreme Emperor. Their martial arts are compared to
Ordinary people are indeed powerful, but their height is limited.
At least, as far as Lin Ruhai knew, the expert guards around him could not ignore the number limit. Once the number of enemies was large, they would only be driven away.
"hehe……"
The elder chuckled lightly and called Lin Ruhai to an open area in the mansion. There happened to be a small training ground for the guards of the mansion in the front yard. Stone locks and other equipment were all available. He picked up a big stone lock and started playing tricks.
He used high throws and low catches, hot wheels and other tricks in succession, spinning a large stone lock weighing two hundred kilograms around, just like an ordinary sword and gun without much weight.
Not to mention that Lin Ruhai was dumbfounded, even the guards nearby who heard the news and came to see the fun looked straight in their eyes.
Is this still a human being?
The ancient warriors in storytelling scripts are nothing more than that, right?
But then, a scene that shocked everyone appeared.
As if he felt that such a performance was not enough, the elder simply threw the two hundred kilogram stone lock into the sky. This time he did not reach out to catch it, but directly punched the falling stone lock.
Boom!
Like a thunderous explosion, the huge stone lock split into pieces of roughly the same size and shape. It fell straight to the ground without breaking apart.
There must be something wrong with your eyes!
Lin Ruhai opened her mouth wide and was speechless for a long time.
The rest of the guard masters were also stunned and at a loss. Looking at the pile of rubble scattered at the feet of the eldest master, they felt depressed as if their world view had collapsed.
How can a human fist be so powerful?
Not to mention smashing a two-hundred-kilogram stone lock with one punch, the mere fact that the pile of rubble was not impacted by the violent punch and spread out like raindrops was enough to make all the security experts present gasp.
Such terrifying strength control is simply shocking and incomparable to ordinary people's methods!
Lin Ruhai didn't know how he got back to the main hall in the backyard. Anyway, when he recovered from the shock, what he saw was the smiling face of his uncle.
"How are you? Do you feel the fear caused by strong force?"
The elder smiled leisurely and said: "I'm not bragging to you. As far as I know, the generals at the founding of the country were all very skilled in martial arts. It's a bit exaggerated to break mountains and mountains, but charging on the battlefield against a ten thousand enemy is no problem!"
"
Seeing Lin Ruhai's dull look, he didn't take it seriously and continued: "Even the ancestors of the Lin family, even though they were the military advisors around Taizu, must have practiced kung fu, otherwise they would not be qualified to stand alongside those ten thousand enemy warriors. This
This is not a joke but a fact!”
Among the four founding princes, eight princes, and twelve princes, which family does not collect books chronicling the achievements of their ancestors? As a family heritage, it is also a means for later generations to pay tribute.
When I first saw the record of the glorious achievements of the late Duke Xianrong, I felt that it was a bit exaggerated.
Of course, if it were him, with the great master's peak strength, he could do even better and even more exaggeratedly. He just didn't believe that Duke Xianrong, a small landowner in Jinling, could have such tyrannical force.
It wasn't until he read "Xuanwu Zhen Gong Body Training Chapter" that he learned the origin of Duke Xianrong's unparalleled combat power.
"this……"
Lin Ruhai seemed to remember something and said awkwardly: "The ancestors did leave behind a qi training formula. I also practiced it when I was a child, but I gave up because it didn't work!"
In front of the eldest master, he did not hide his family background. In his opinion, it was useless, and it was no big deal to say it.
"Oh, can you let me see it?"
The elder became interested and asked directly: "If I see some clues, I won't hide it from you!"
"Brother-in-law, you're welcome!"
Lin Ruhai didn't take it seriously. He turned back and took out a thin book from an inconspicuous corner of the study and handed it over without any hesitation. It was obvious that he really didn't care much.
The elder was not polite and took the book without a title. He opened it and his spirits suddenly lifted. He read the book carefully from beginning to end and let out a sigh of relief.
"Brother-in-law, does he know where this Qi training formula comes from?"
Putting down the priceless book in his hand, the elder looked at Lin Ruhai and asked solemnly: "This is very important!"
"Why, what did my uncle see?"
Lin Ruhai was curious and asked instead of answering: "Isn't it related to some magical skills?"
The tone was joking, but he didn't believe these things at all.
If it weren't for the fact that the Lin family was a member of the nobility and a well-educated scholar, he wouldn't have even looked at the so-called Qi training method.
The experience of studying the Four Books and Five Classics made him greatly influenced by the circle of literati, and he had a natural rejection of martial arts. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing?
"certainly!"
The elder did not hide anything and explained directly; "This qi training formula of yours is quite extraordinary. It is an excellent method of transporting qi and blood to regulate the five internal organs!"
"impossible!"
Lin Ruhai questioned: "Why did I practice for a long time when I was a child, but it had no effect at all?"
"Haha, with your thin body, if you don't have supporting physical training methods, you won't be able to achieve results even if you practice all your life!"
The elder smiled calmly and said: "The so-called transporting qi and blood to regulate the five internal organs has a prerequisite that the qi and blood are strong and the body is strong. Otherwise, forced transportation will only damage the foundation of the body and cause death faster!"
After hearing the explanation, Lin Ruhai suddenly remembered something and his face was dull, and the look on his face suddenly became very exciting.
It's not even a hundred years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, but Lin Ruhai's branch of the Lin family has already gone through five generations, which is incredible.
Lin Ruhai is now approaching the age of 40, and is the longest-living member of the direct lineage of the Lin family among the five generations.
It is said that the Lin family is rich and prosperous. Even if the children's bodies are naturally weak, relying on acquired nourishment and conditioning should have some effect. At least there will be no problem in living to the age of forty or fifty.
The result is that, including the first generation of Lin family ancestors, the lifespan of Lin Ruhai's direct descendants is basically only in their early thirties, which is simply unbelievable if they are placed in a wealthy family.
Before, I thought that the family bloodline was naturally weak, but after listening to what my uncle said, Lin Ruhai suddenly had a bold idea in her heart. The reason why her ancestors died early was not because of their innate physical weakness, but because of the strong practice of ancestral Qi.
This method led to an untimely death.
But another doubt came to his mind. If it was as he suspected, and his ancestors all died young because of their strong Qi training methods, don't they know the cause and effect?
His thoughts were complicated and uneasy for a while, but Lin Ruhai's face remained calm and he said directly: "It is recorded in the ancestor's notes that it seems to be a benefit given by Taizu Taizu of Daqi!"
When he said this, there was a loud bang in his mind, and a thought that was so bold and treasonous suddenly came to his mind. Could it be that several generations of the Lin family's ancestors died young and the source was actually the fault of Taizu?
Did Taizu Daqi know the consequences of practicing Qi training forcefully?
The more I thought about it, the more horrified I became. Cold sweat penetrated my back unknowingly. Some crazy thoughts arose in my mind, and my face became pale and bloodless.
Sensing Lin Ruhai's complicated thoughts and seeing his expression become very ugly, the elder thought for a while and guessed the clues. He said softly without opening his mouth to comfort: "I see. It seems that Taizu was very kind to the ancestors of the Lin family."
Why, you even gave such a good thing to the ancestors of the Lin family!"
In my heart, I have already connected this Qi training method with the "Xuanwu Zhen Gong Body Training Chapter" secretly passed down by Rong Guofu, but it is an unusual fit.
Could it be that this is one of the supporting training methods of "Xuanwu Zhen Gong"?
I wish the Lin family had not received such a reward!
Lin Ruhai roared with anger in his heart. After guessing some terrible truth, his allegiance to the royal family suddenly disappeared and was replaced by full of defensiveness and hatred.
In this era, the inheritance of family bloodline is still the most important thing. As for the power and wealth granted by the emperor, one has to stand back.
If the family is gone, what's the use of having so much power and wealth?
I had mixed feelings in my heart, and I lost interest in everything for a while. After chatting with the elder for a few words, I stopped chatting and apologized for leaving.
The elder didn't take it seriously. Lin Ruhai didn't take away the ancestral Qi training method, but it was quite valuable information for the elder. He could more easily deduce the true content of "Xuanwu Zhen Gong".
With Neijiaquan's method of transporting qi and blood to train the five internal organs, he did not attach too much importance to the Lin family's ancestral qi training method. It was just that it was integrated with "Xuanwu Zhen Gong Body Training Chapter", and the training effect would be better when combined.
He was not in a hurry to practice, as it would take a long time, and what he had to do now was to help Jia Min nurse her body back to health.
