There are some patterns on the bottom of the white jade box, which are not runes, but illustrations used for spiritual practice.
Lin Xi took the white jade box and looked at the catalog at the bottom, his expression became solemn.
There is a Nei Xiang system in Qingluan Academy, and his friend Meng Bai is a new student of the Nei Xiang system. What the Nei Xiang system in Qingluan Academy studies is the mysteries within the body of a practitioner, and through some unique means, some of the practitioners’
The aspect is particularly prominent, which itself is an important branch of the internal system.
This is undoubtedly a method of acupuncture combined with soul power to bring unique stimulation to the eyes, thereby slowly improving eyesight.
"You can shoot so accurately in the dark because you can see clearly." Lin Xi said to himself, slowly raised his head, looked at Mingqiu Pond, and said, "But the book says,
There is no love or hate for no reason in this world, and there is no free lunch.”
"The book is right. There is no such thing as love and hate for no reason in this world. And this is a secret of my Ming family, so I passed it on to you for a reason." Ming Qiuchi looked at Lin Xi with a gentle expression.
said.
Lin Xi knew that many aristocratic families in Yunqin had some unique cultivation methods that were not spread to outsiders, but he knew that it was precisely because of these unique cultivation methods that the children of these aristocratic families had some qualities that others did not have, making them inherently better than ordinary people.
, because it is related to future generations, these aristocratic families regard these unique cultivation methods as more important than their lives, and it is absolutely impossible to spread them. Hearing what Ming Qiuchi said, he did not say anything, just waited quietly, waiting for Ming Qiuchi.
Qiu Chi told the reason.
"Our Ming family is not famous in Yunqin. We are not a prominent family. Except for our Ming family, I am afraid that no one in Yunqin knows the origin of our Ming family." Ming Qiuchi looked at Lin Xi's waiting expression and smiled slightly.
Then he continued and said: "But our Ming family still has some origins...our Ming family was originally the border residents of Biluoling."
"Everyone in Yunqin knows that Biluoling was originally the territory of the fifteen tribes of Xiyi, but in addition to the fifteen largest tribes, there are also some small tribes that are squeezed out and oppressed by these fifteen tribes. Our Ming family is
A medicine man from one of these small tribes."
"The fifteen tribes of Western Yi joined forces to invade eastward. They originally wanted to fight all the way to Zhongzhou, but that year Dean Zhang came and beheaded the thirty strongest practitioners among the fifteen tribes of Western Yi in one night. Later, my father
He joined the army and followed Dean Zhang in the battle of Falling Star Lake."
Lin Xi's eyes widened a little, and she couldn't help but say, "Your father was one of the five thousand border troops who defended Falling Star Mausoleum at that time?"
Ming Qiuchi smiled, nodded, and said: "Thirteen years after the battle of Falling Star Lake, my mother gave birth to me. My father was away before and was originally going to rush back before I was born, but there happened to be a heavy rain that year.
, causing many roads to be interrupted and missed, so that he could not come back as scheduled, but someone who neither he nor my mother would have expected arrived at the door of my house."
Lin Xi was slightly startled, "Is it Dean Zhang?"
Ming Qiuchi nodded and sighed: "My father was just an ordinary military doctor when he was in the Falling Star Mausoleum. What kind of status is Dean Zhang? Who would have thought that Dean Zhang would still remember him and pass by me thirteen years later?"
When I came home, I even came here to visit and inquire."
Lin Xi was silent for a moment.
He knew that that battle had created the supreme glory of Yun Qin and Dean Zhang. The Nanmo Kingdom, which had 300,000 soldiers at that time, finally fell apart because of that battle, and eventually changed dynasties and became the Da Mang Dynasty. However, Lin Xi knew
, that battle back then was probably extremely tragic for the middle-aged uncle. Many people and many things were probably indelible for him in his lifetime, so thirteen years later, he would still quietly appear in that scene.
At the door of the famous sergeant, let’s see how those people lived back then.
"Dean Zhang probably knew beforehand that my father would come back, but he didn't expect that my father would not be able to come back in time due to heavy rain somewhere."
Ming Qiuchi said: "He missed the meeting with my father. He felt something at that time and sighed a poem: 'The king asked about the return date but it has not been scheduled yet, and the night rain in Bashan filled the autumn pond.' Later, my father named me after the word "Last Qiuchi".
It’s just that my father and I still don’t know where Bashan is. Maybe it’s an unknown place that Dean Zhang has traveled to but no one else has heard of.”
Lin Xi smiled slightly.
In this world, only he can truly understand the meaning of these two lines of poetry. Only he can understand the meaning of Bashan, which does not exist in Yunqin. With just these two lines of poetry, he knows that what Ming Qiuchi said is true.
"Just because I am a direct descendant of Qingluan, you will pass on your Ming family's unique practice method to me? The rest of the Ming family will not object?" Lin Xi bowed to Mingqiu Pond to express his thanks, and asked.
Ming Qiuchi smiled and said: "Our Ming family is not a famous family. When it comes to me, it is a single inheritance. I only have one daughter. This practice method should always have a inheritance."
After a slight pause, Ming Qiuchi looked at Lin Xi again and said with some emotion: "To be honest, I happened to see you jumping next to the waterfall... I admire your courage. If it were me, I wouldn't dare to do that.
Coupled with the things you did before, these combined led me to make such a decision."
Lin Xi glanced at Ming Qiuchi's eyes and smiled: "This practice method has no side effects, right?"
Ming Qiuchi shook his head, "My father came of age and had a son. He was ninety-one years old when he passed away three years ago. There were no side effects until then."
Lin Xi said: "But why are your eyes so big and why are the pupils so dark?"
Ming Qiuchi had a bitter look on his face, a little confused about whether to laugh or cry: "The border residents in our place are all like this...it's not because of their spiritual practice."
Lin Xi couldn't help but laugh too, but he immediately became serious again and said: "What will the higher ups do to me? What about Jiang Xiaoyi and Bian Linghan?"
Ming Qiuchi also became more serious and said: "Both of them were promoted to the first rank and were transferred to the granary of Longshe Chilou Cave. As for you, you have contributed to raising money to build the dam. You have previously exposed the three town company generals as collaborating with the enemy. Investigate
Thirteen pieces of Heavenly Demon Heavy Armor have been successfully traded, plus you still remembered a glorious medal before, so the promotion in rank is an exception among exceptions. It has been approved by the Holy Emperor, promoted to the seventh rank, and transferred to Dragon Snake.
He served as patrol officer in Yangjian Tianshan."
"Ranking Lieutenant?"
Lin Xi frowned and said, "If I remember correctly, these are just officials responsible for responding and arresting people."
Ming Qiuchi heard the meaning of Lin Xi's words, nodded, and said: "Originally, the granaries of the Dragon and Snake Border Army were the focus of the cave barbarians' sneak attacks. Therefore, although many of the granaries of the Dragon and Snake Border Army were built in the heart of the mountain,
The cave barbarians attack frequently, so the troops guarding the granary are more dangerous. The patrol officer originally only led the team to search for some escaped prisoners or spies, and to hunt down some lone practitioners, and he was very advantageous in what he did.
But now the dragon and snake frontier troops are very tight. The whereabouts of the cave barbarians are elusive. It is said that their habits are very different from those in the past. Moreover, it is not yet autumn and winter, and the cave barbarians are not short of food. Some battles during these days are said to have
It is not to attack the granary, but to attack it unprepared and kill some lone border troops... Moreover, the patrol army led by the patrol officer is the most mobile army. It is very easy to assign some tasks to you. "
Lin Xi shook her head, "This is not very bright."
Ming Qiuchi said seriously: "So even if your Qingluan Academy has some arrangements, you still have to be careful."
Lin Xi thought for a moment and then asked: "How far is it between Yangjiantian Mountain where I want to go and the granary in Chiloudong where they want to go? And...where are you going to be sent?"
"You are not far apart, only half a day's journey. The Chilou Cave Granary is in the middle of the Longshe Mountain Range. The Yangjiantian Mountain you want to go to is to the north of Chilou Cave. As for me, it is relatively far away."
Ming Qiuchi said: "I went to Black Snake Mountain, which is near the southernmost end of Longshe Mountain Range. I went to Pioneer Camp."
"It's more dangerous to charge at the vanguard camp at the front." Lin Xi's brows twitched.
Ming Qiuchi smiled and said: "Actually, it's okay, we were just incidentally affected by a gust of wind. Yun Qincheng's army has an advantage, and archers like me don't have to show up in public most of the time."
"Let's go." Looking at Lin Xi who was putting away the white jade box, he said seriously: "I still have to complete the order to the summit and go to gather the people to announce the official document."
"Gathering together to announce the official document?" Lin Xi shook her head and said sarcastically: "Is this considered an honor?"
"No matter whether the means are bright or not, these are the true glory that belongs to you." Ming Qiuchi understood what Lin Xi meant and said seriously: "And for the people of Yunqin, this is also the true glory. They need such justice and such glory.
.Only in this way will more people who pursue glory appear."
…
…
All the streets and alleys in Yanlai Town were deserted, and even the bustling river dam was stopped. All the townspeople gathered towards the military training ground beside the official road outside the town.
All the townspeople were very excited, because this was the unmistakable news from the town governor's office, and the provincial officials were going to read out the commendation documents for their beloved Mr. Xiaolin in public.
Because of genuine respect and affection, when they saw Lin Xi, Ming Qiuchi and other town officials walking onto the martial arts stage, all the townspeople let out a thunderous cheer.
Such cheers made the sun shine even brighter, and Ming Qiuchi couldn't help but smile. He unfolded the document with the seal of the Provincial Department and began to read it out.
"Lin Xi, the acting governor of Yanlai Town, is young, but he is wise and courageous. His merits have reached the level of Holy Listening, and he was promoted by imperial approval... Because of his contribution in raising money to build the dam, the honor of the Glory Medal was promoted from the ninth rank to the eighth rank.
"
"Because of the capture of the assassin and the revelation of the truth about Xu Ning Shen Li Tong Da Mang, the three-town battalion general, he was promoted from the eighth rank to the full eighth rank."
"Due to the investigation of border smuggling transactions and the seizure of a large amount of important ordnance, I was promoted from the eighth grade to the seventh grade..."
After a brief silence, the audience suddenly became completely excited, shouting long live the mountain. They found that their beloved Mr. Xiaolin had actually made some great achievements that they were unaware of. They respected him even more and were even more happy. And Lian Sheng
Level 3, this made them feel that their beloved Master Xiaolin was recognized and appreciated, and they became even more excited.
For a time, almost every face and body of the people present seemed to be glowing.
Lin Xi felt a little emotional, but he quickly smiled and bowed slightly in return to these people.
What Ming Qiuchi said is right, these glories are clean to these simple people, and these glories can bring them strength and happiness.
