Chapter 11: Big trees attract the wind

The moment the doorbell of the martial arts training room rang, a look of impatience clearly flashed across Yue Hanzhang's face.

After all, Yue Hanzhang gained so much from this class.

Not only did he realize the limitations of the mechanical brain he mastered, which lacked guidance in general directions besides its magical effects; he also, with the correction of Qin Linhui, clarified the path he should take in his martial arts practice in the future.

Once you have a clear idea of ​​the road ahead, you will know how to walk it in a smooth and successful manner.

In fact, precisely because of the display of his "genius qualities", it was obvious that the head teacher was making an exception to teach some content that was currently beyond the syllabus.

You know, for a long time to come, the pure practice of martial arts will be the only priority for students.

This long-term continuation will last throughout the entire high school career. Even 99% of the students will gradually come into contact with content related to the extraordinary path only after they are successfully admitted to major academies.

These are far away from Yue Hanzhang.

However, Yue Hanzhang understood that the frequent enlightenment last night almost led to misunderstandings, and what Qin Linhui said during the correction process today.

These extraordinary landscapes may be very far away from us, so far that they seem a little unrealistic when we think about them now.

But simply knowing the existence of these landscapes can provide guidance on the general direction of spiritual practice.

This kind of guidance may be worth countless days and nights of hard practice.

Yue Hanzhang even realized that it was precisely under his 17 or 18-year-old appearance that he hid his adult side, and it was based on the good relationship he had established with his class teacher over a long period of time that—

Today, Qin Linhui was in a mood to talk because of his good fortune. It was obvious that he was quite interested in the "beyond the syllabus course" he was talking about now, and he didn't seem to want to stop.

But now, all this process was interrupted by the sound of a ring.

Yue Hanzhang didn’t know what important matter the person came to him for, but in his eyes, there was nothing more important in the world than martial arts, cultivation, and the path he wanted to take!

The moment I thought of this, that feeling of impatience even had a tendency to turn into anger.

In particular, Yue Hanzhang had already become absorbed in boxing. Even if he had not integrated various martial arts at this moment, just the frequent enlightenment of that palm made Yue Hanzhang have the urge to integrate his anger into it and interpret it into murderous intent in boxing.

But in the next moment, the powerful mind accumulated over many lifetimes and the character tempered by the vicissitudes of life in two lifetimes allowed him to calm down his anger.

One must use the power of qi and blood as well as the mind and will to control the murderous intent, rather than letting the murderous intent of boxing control the mind and qi and blood.

It has nothing to do with external objects. It is a game between boxing and the mind. It is a long-term entanglement that one will often have to deal with in the future process of martial arts practice.

What really surprised Yue Hanzhang was that in the instant when his mood and emotions were suddenly relaxed and restrained, the auditory hallucinations he had heard before reappeared in his mind.

In an instant, the mechanical brain burst into a roar and trembling sound that nourished the soul.

Along with the complex and highly alienated mechanical operation, the gilded threads contained in it were partially consumed. During the operation of the machine, they were diluted and transformed into dark golden light.

However, this time, what Yue Hanzhang felt from those dark golden lights was not the inculcation of martial arts knowledge, but some kind of clear stream that was brewing in his mechanical mind after judging the path of martial arts cultivation.

This kind of clear stream has "leaked" at this moment, dissipating in Yue Hanzhang's body and mind, as if it was a sweet rain that wanted to actively extinguish his anger.

And in the process of the sweet rain, the essence of the clear stream was also guiding Yue Hanzhang's mind and thoughts to briefly stop at the pure rational level.

This state and feeling reminded Yue Hanzhang of a word he had come across in his previous life - "mechanized mind".

Although, in almost an instant, Yue Hanzhang took the initiative to settle this brief mental game, and his mechanical brain only had time to operate for a short while, and the clear stream could not even fully play its role, and everything came to an abrupt end.

But just determining a new function of the mechanical brain was already regarded by Yue Hanzhang as a precious and important gain.

It was also at that moment when Yue Hanzhang realized the strange feeling of the clear stream turning into sweet rain and the "mechanized mind" in his mind.

Qin Linhui had already followed the ringing sound, taking two or three steps at a time, and like a gust of wind, he was already standing at the door of the martial arts studio. But Qin Linhui did not open the door directly.

The black jade screen on the side that displayed the surveillance video outside the door suddenly lit up, revealing that in the spacious open space outside the martial arts training room, six people were standing there quietly waiting for the door to open.

At just one glance, Yue Hanzhang recognized four of them.

The director of the senior year, the head teacher of Class 0114, the person in charge of Tengxia Pharmaceutical Company’s Base City No. , and Wu Xian.

Behind these four people, a few steps behind, was a couple who looked obviously more weathered.

Even though their faces appeared very blurry on the black jade screen, Yue Hanzhang could still see at a glance the couple's expressions of nervousness, bewilderment, joy, excitement and helplessness.

They should be Wu Xian's parents.

At this moment, Qin Linhui raised his eyebrows and looked back at Yue Hanzhang with an expression that showed he had expected something.

"Well, this is for you."

"You don't want to fight, you want to avoid these trivial matters, just want your own peace and quiet, but others may not think so."

"Once you become prominent, you will realize that the more you avoid trouble, the more trouble will come to you."

"A big tree attracts the wind..."

"But the city head of a large enterprise has come to visit for the second time. No matter who you ask, it's full of sincerity. Are you really not tempted?"

"Regardless of other food supplements, elixirs, etc., you now know the importance of various martial arts in the path of cultivation. The martial arts that the Taoist Alliance can teach you for free are the most basic and earliest versions."

"It's not that you get better as you get older, it's just that it becomes harder to learn and master as you get older."

"Many famous boxing techniques have been improved and modified by countless talented martial arts practitioners, and there is even a systematic explanation of how the Nine Palaces Primordial Palm can be integrated with various martial arts within the framework. The copyrights of these martial arts heritages are firmly held in the hands of the companies behind the major academies."

“Some valuable content can’t even be bought with money.”

This was the first time that Yue Hanzhang considered the issue of martial arts, but after listening carefully to Qin Linhui's words, Yue Hanzhang smiled arrogantly as if he were a real genius.

"The ancient versions of the martial arts passed down by the Dao League are difficult to learn and master? I don't believe it!"

"It's a good thing that doesn't cost any money anyway, so there's no harm in trying it out. What if I really learn it and master it?"

"As for whether I'm tempted... what can tempt me is not someone's false, invisible sincerity, but the clear benefits written in black and white on the contract."

"Teacher, can I sell my own talent twice?"

Qin Linhui shook his head.

So Yue Hanzhang smiled cheerfully.

"Then he has to impress me with a good contract! I have no problem with Teng Xia, I just have a problem with the last contract he showed me!"

"As for the saying that a tall tree attracts the wind, teacher, I'm just afraid of trouble, not them!"

Qin Linhui also laughed and said, "That's right! This is the right mentality! Sometimes I always feel that you are too mature to be a student! You can't walk the path of cultivation with this mentality!"

"You are a martial arts practitioner, not a humble scholar!"

"In martial arts, you compete to be first. If you don't compete, who will let you be first?"
