Chapter 3 Leaving Chang'an(1/2)

Chapter 3 Leaving Changan

Huang Ying still didn't come through after all.

He has been in a coma since he came back from the fight. Uncle Fu, his second uncle, and his eldest brother took turns taking care of him.

Huang Lin only stayed by his side except eating and sleeping.

He also figured out that although he had no feelings for Huang Ying, he had taken over the body of the original owner, and he had to accept the cause and effect.

Late at night on the third day, Huang Ying woke up and woke up Fu Bo, Huang Xiong, Huang Qi and Huang Lin from under the covers. He briefly explained the funeral affairs, and left Huang Qi alone to explain a few words before passing away.

.

In the end, it was his second uncle Huang Xiong who took charge of Huang Ying's funeral. He then stayed in Xi'an for a month to stabilize the situation here before heading to Luoyang. He had been away from Luoyang for a long time and had to go and show up.

In the meantime, someone from Huashan came to know that Heifeng Village had a new leader. A small bandit leader who was originally inconspicuous led a few people to seize power. After becoming the new leader, he wanted to scare the big guys and scare the monkeys.

After joining the Changfeng Escort Agency, the rest of the story happened.

The second uncle led Renren and Huashan's masters to destroy Heifeng Village and take back the escort money, barely stopping some losses.

The eldest brother Huang Qi, as the eldest son, has to stay at home and observe filial piety for three years under the current circumstances.

With the help of Huashan's gang Changfeng Escort Bureau, the business of the Escort Bureau also improved slightly.

"Brother, Chen's Trading Company is here to escort escorts again."

Huang Lin opened the door and walked into the study, followed by Uncle Fu.

"Oh, what is it?"

Because Huang Qi was the eldest son during the filial piety period, he stayed in the backyard, practicing martial arts or reading books all day long. Occasionally, when business needed to be decided, Huang Lin or Uncle Fu would understand it in the front yard and then convey it to him.

"It was said to be a batch of fabrics. We compensated them for their losses last time, and the Huashan sect later helped us out. It was only this time that Chen came to us again."

When Huang Lin was talking to Chen's housekeeper in the front yard just now, he didn't find any problems, so he didn't refuse, but in the end he still needed his eldest brother to make a decision.

"In that case, let's take it. Mr. Hu suffered a disaster, and Mr. Lei hasn't recovered yet. This time, Mr. Wang and Mr. Liu will go. Mr. Song will guard the house. Uncle Fu, please go to the front yard to explain.

, Xiaolin stays.”

After Uncle Fu went out, Huang Qi turned around and took out a few books from the secret compartment of the bookshelf.

"Xiao Lin, since you want to go to Huashan to learn martial arts, you still have a few martial arts secret books at home, you can take a look first."

Huang Qi handed the book over.

"Brother, here's what I think about it. A sect as big as Huashan must be very strict in accepting disciples. I'm afraid that if I have some skills, what if they don't accept me?"

"Besides, I can't even read the characters right now, and I can't practice even if I have the secret manual. If this thing works out well, it will be ruined."

Huang Lin received the secret book. If he hadn't known Huang Qi to be straight-tempered these days, someone else would have thought he was harming himself.

"Ah, I didn't think it through for my brother, but in just over four months, Huashan Mountain will open its gate. You can take it and have a look. It would be good to gain more experience."

"Then thank you, brother. Can I hire a gentleman tomorrow to teach me how to read?"

"Iron Body Kung Fu", "Five Tiger Swords", "Crazy Demon Stick", and "Changchun Kung" are all popular, and they are all external skills. No wonder my father, second uncle, and eldest brother all have thick bones.

On the other hand, I seem to have heard of "Changchun Gong" before, and the content is completely different from the first three books. It may be internal strength. I will go to Huashan to learn the basic skills and come back to take a look.

"Sir, I will arrange things for you tomorrow. Whenever you want to see it, just come over by yourself. You know the secret pattern anyway."

Huang Qi took the secret book handed over by Huang Lin, turned around and put it into the secret compartment.

The next day, Uncle Fu invited his husband over. He was an elderly scholar in his fifties, surnamed Hu. He probably had no hope of fame and had a lot of money, so he agreed to come and teach Huang Lin.

First, "Hundred Family Surnames". Old Master Hu took the lead and touched the bottom. He saw that Huang Lin was not like other children. He was very easy to teach. He stroked his beard with satisfaction.

I don't know whether it's because of his young age or because of time travel. In the process of learning "Hundred Family Surnames", Huang Lin found that his memory was much better than in his previous life. He could recite a few hundred words in most of a day.

Even if he pulled it out, he could recognize it. After all, to him, it was just the difference between traditional Chinese and simplified Chinese. Even when he picked up the pen to write, he was a mess. The old master didn't take it seriously. He just said that he was young and could practice more.

Although the old master was just a scholar, he was a good teacher. After considering Huang Lin's learning progress, he arranged for him to copy more every day and less to read and recite.

In this way, it only took ten days to complete the study from "Hundred Family Surnames" to "The Thousand Character Essay". If Old Master Hu hadn't taught it himself and knew Huang Lin's basics, he wouldn't have believed it. The old man has pulled his beard off these days.

He lost a lot and called him a child prodigy. He kept saying that the Huang family was a waste of talents. He dragged Huang Lin and asked him to study essays and take the imperial examination. However, Huang Lin's mind was now filled with martial arts, so he could only speak vaguely to Master Hu.

There is no way, if this is a historical drama, and now he feels that he is talented, Huang Linpan will try to get a meritorious service, but this is a martial arts drama, and after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to go to Huashan. If something goes wrong, he can go back

Try to take the merit test.

Then when Old Master Hu came to the "Three Character Classic", he began to explain the story to Huang Lin, as well as the principles of life and doing things in the story.

Huang Lin listened with great interest. Although the seniors knew a little bit about it, they didn't learn it completely.

The New Year was approaching, and the old master gave Huang Lin "winter vacation homework" and then went home to celebrate the New Year. However, when he left, he hesitated to speak and looked confused.

The second uncle came from Luoyang and brought the second aunt and his daughter Huang Shuang.

Logically speaking, this would be disrespectful to the status of an elder, but the second uncle Huang Xiong felt sorry for his two nephews. There was no elder here, so he was worried. The second aunt was also a kind-hearted person.

The eldest brother kept his filial piety and was unable to travel, so Huang Lin had to go to meet him with a few bodyguards. He rode a carriage through the snow and received the second uncle's family at Changting. He had no choice but to bow deeply to express his gratitude.

Cousin Huang Shuang was a troublemaker. When she heard that her younger cousin was going to Huashan next year, she kept asking Huang Lin questions. Huang Lin had no choice but to give up on the grounds of academic studies and sent him to his eldest brother.

It's not that he dislikes Huang Shuang's noisiness, it's just that this cousin is already sixteen, not much taller than him, and she hugs him at every turn, even if he is really a ten-year-old kid, but inside she is a thirty-something year old

The soul had no choice but to run away in embarrassment.

Through the study window, looking at the ice edges hanging on the eaves, tree branches and snow in the courtyard, his cousin's voice could be heard faintly in his ears. Huang Lin felt that this was good!

After dinner, the eldest brother called Huang Lin and invited his second uncle to the study. He told the truth about recent events and wanted to ask his second uncle for advice. He was under twenty and had never been a householder before, so he was still a little uneasy.

"There's nothing big going on right now. You handle these trivial matters quite well."

"Xiao Lin, I heard that you are studying Chinese and literacy with Mr. Xiucai now? Do you want to take the exam for merit?"

Huang Xiong praised his nephew with a pleased expression, then turned around and teased his little nephew.

"Second uncle was joking. Lin'er just felt that if I were given a magical secret book now, I wouldn't be able to learn it. Maybe I still don't know some of the words, so I thought of asking my eldest brother to ask my husband to teach me."

Huang Lin touched the back of his forehead, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

There is no other way. It is possible to pretend to be cute in front of your loved ones occasionally.

"Hahahaha, it is indeed our Qilin'er. You are right. You have to have some knowledge to understand those martial arts secrets."

"Take our family's "Changchun Gong" as an example. Your father has had this secret book for some years. We both know every word, but we don't understand a word. So we don't say whether we can practice it. Even if we can, we can't.

Don’t dare!”

Huang Xiong shook his head and thought that he could not practice the secrets of internal strength that he could see. Whoever tastes this would know the feeling.

"So you, my father, and my eldest brother all practice the other three? Is that an external skill?"

"That's right. No one in our family knows about meridians, how to move qi, etc., and they don't dare to take it out to ask others for advice. Moreover, they are afraid that people will deliberately mislead them. So the "Changchun Gong" and "Five Tiger Swords" and

"Crazy Demon Stick" is a martial arts move that can be achieved through hard practice, while "Iron Body Kung Fu" is an external skill, mainly used to torture the body, but some medicinal materials are difficult to collect."

Huang Qi interjected.

"Qi'er is right. There are five levels of "Iron Body Kung Fu". People in Luoyang call me Iron Lion because I had some luck in my early years and was lucky enough to reach the fourth level. If not, I would be just like your father.

You can only practice to the third level. The higher you go, the harder it is to find the medicine."

"Thank you to my second uncle and my eldest brother for clarifying my doubts. Xiaolin plans to take some time to read these tips later. I will wait until we get to Huashan to decide whether to practice them or not."

"You are right to be worried. Your elder brother is worried about this matter, but he is also concerned about your future."

"I know, eldest brother has been very kind to me, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to recognize the words now!"

Huang Qi looked at his second uncle and younger brother, touched his head and giggled.

Huang Lin looked at his eldest brother speechlessly. He was not like this usually. Why did he act stupid every time when his elders were around.

"It's easy for the Huashan Sect to recruit disciples, but there are conditions."

Huang Xiong saw the two brothers turning their heads and continued: "I didn't find out much. I only know that you have to be clean, and then you can't bring artists into the house. After entering, you have to start as an outer disciple. So, Xiaolin, please be cautious.

It’s not unreasonable. There are still three months left, so just read more and learn more. There’s no harm in it.”

Similar to Huang Lin's consideration, no upright Ming sect would accept being an art master. Even after the Qi Sword War and when Yue Buqun was the leader, the reason for recruiting Lao Denuo was to reassure Zuo Lengchan.

"Thank you, uncle, for your advice."

After the New Year, the second uncle's family said goodbye. Huang Lin originally planned to send him to Changting, but his second uncle stopped him because it was cold and he was young, so he had to be sent to the city gate.

The cousin left with a look of reluctance. Huang Shuang really felt sorry for this cousin. He was obviously still young and acted like a grown-up all day long. It would be fine if he had this personality since he was a child. But when he came here a few years ago, he was still hated by others.

.

After seeing off his second uncle and his family, Huang Lin continued his daily study routine.

I practice calligraphy and copy books every day, then review Three Hundred Thousand, and occasionally flip through the few martial arts secret books at home to refresh my mind.

After Master Hu came to check his studies, he gave him a copy of "The Analects of Confucius".

Huang Lin took the Analects and looked at Master Hu with a question mark on his face.

"Whether you are practicing martial arts or studying essays, it is always good to know more about knowledge."

For most of his life, Hu Xiucai had only heard of a child prodigy. Someone was a child prodigy in the past, but he was lucky enough to meet a living prodigy who could become his mentor.
