C6 Tyrant Qi Method(part Ii)
Inside the door, the moment Wang Xiao walked in, he found that an old man wearing blue clothes was sitting near the door. Behind the old man was the only entrance to the library.
The old man sitting in front of the counter saw Wang Xiao walk in and a surprised expression appeared on his withered old face. However, he was only slightly surprised and then his expression returned to normal. Wang Xiao's movements were not slow either and as the old man was surprised, he had already walked in front of the counter.
Wang Xiao clasped his hands. There was a hint of shyness on his face as he respectfully said to the old man, "Disciple greets elder. I wonder if I can enter the first floor of the library to choose techniques. I would like some pointers from elder."
After all, Wang Xiao was only three years old right now. If others were to find out that he was suspicious of something, there was no guarantee that his life would be in danger. Therefore, Wang Xiao tried to make his words sound as close to a three year old as possible.
His words were tactful and didn't arouse the old man's suspicions at all. However, Wang Xiao's appearance didn't arouse anyone's suspicions. At least, the shy look on his face didn't make the old man think otherwise.
As expected, the old man opened his eyes slowly, revealing a lazy look. He stared at Wang Xiao for a few seconds, then yawned and said lazily, "Sure, sure, sure. I don't know little kid. Your father taught you to say that, right?"
Wang Xiao didn't want to expose himself, so he could only silently nod and say, "The elder is right. Father had repeatedly instructed me to be polite to my elders and not to be disrespectful to them. I wonder if you can give me a few pointers?"
Seeing Wang Xiao imitating the tone of an adult, the old man was also amused by Wang Xiao's actions, but he did not make things difficult for Wang Xiao anymore. Wang Xiao tried to squeeze out a pretty smile from the old man's withered face, but the old man's wrinkled cheekbone revealed two yellow front teeth, and he warmly said: "Hehe, since you said that, then I will not waste your time, and also give you some pointers."
As the old man said this, he stood up and pointed to the stairs at the side, "Mm, the first floor's library is suitable for you kids to train in, you just need to go up to the first floor, but the stairs to the second floor have traps, you definitely can't go to the second floor to avoid unnecessary harm, okay, that's all the old man can say, the rest depends on your luck, you should hurry up."
Nodding his head, Wang Xiao nodded slightly and thanked the elder respectfully before walking up the stairs. However, Wang Xiao didn't have time to appreciate the environment. He just strode up the stairs, and after a few steps, Wang Xiao arrived at the hall on the first floor. Looking around, there were three huge stone cabinets in the empty hall, and in the stone cabinet, there were three rows of thick books with the names faintly visible.
Wang Xiao didn't dare to delay any longer. After all, he had already wasted a lot of time since he came in. If he didn't hurry up and choose the martial art he liked, he wouldn't be able to cry by then.
"Drip, drip, drip." He slowly walked to the front of three stone cabinets, and Wang Xiao just happened to be able to get these books directly in front of him. The height of these three cabinets also fit Wang Xiao's height very well, although Wang Xiao was only this tall, but the corner of his mouth raised a little bit as he mumbled to himself: "Such an exquisite design, even in the modern era five hundred years from now, it would still be very difficult to design such a reasonable stone cabinet."
Although Wang Xiao admired and appreciated these designs, he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart. He suppressed the urge to take these books out and casually picked up a yellowed book.
Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment before he opened the first page of the book. He saw six lines of incomprehensible incantations, and Wang Xiao was not interested in reading them as he simply started to read the book.
After about three minutes, Wang Xiao quickly closed the book in his hand and put it back in its original place. He shook his head. Wang Xiao revealed a helpless expression and walked towards the second stone cabinet.
Arriving in front of the second stone cabinet, Wang Xiao clearly found that the number of books on the stone cabinet had decreased a lot compared to the first one. Wang Xiao obviously found that the number of books on the stone cabinet had decreased a lot compared to the number of books on the first stone cabinet.
Sigh, these books look so old, so they should be the cultivation techniques that have been stored here for a long time. Since the number of books is decreasing, then the books here can be divided into three categories: simple, average, and high quality. Wang Xiao looked at the incomplete cultivation technique in front of him, secretly guessing in his heart, if he were to use a normal method to choose the cultivation technique here, perhaps the time of one incense stick would not be enough at all. Just by skimming through the books, he would not be able to find the cultivation technique he liked.
Sure enough, the moment he walked to the third stone cabinet, Wang Xiao only saw five incomplete cultivation techniques on the stone cabinet, and could not find any other cultivation techniques. His gaze carefully fell on the five cultivation techniques, "Iron Soul Fist", "Ling Feng Fist", "Innate Skill", "Tyrant Body Technique", "Tyrant Qi Method".
When Wang Xiao's gaze landed on the last cultivation technique manual, his heart jumped uncontrollably, and an inexplicable feeling immediately rushed into his heart, causing Wang Xiao to directly pick up the Tyrant Qi Method without any hesitation. Wang Xiao carefully looked at the cultivation manual in front of him, and the Tyrant Qi Method in his hand was obviously the most complete one of the five.
This caused Wang Xiao's heart to beat wildly. He did not need the elders to tell him the value of this cultivation technique, but he believed that Wang Xiao could also guess the importance of this cultivation technique. In Wang Xiao's heart, he did not have any hesitation because he could faintly hear a voice telling him that the cultivation technique in front of him was the one he wanted and it was the most suitable cultivation technique for him.
After making up his mind, Wang Xiao no longer hesitated. He directly carried the Tyrant Qi Method in his hand and headed downstairs.
Seeing Wang Xiao walk out, the old man was obviously surprised. His evaluation of Wang Xiao rose a bit more, and then he frowned and said, "Child, this still hasn't burnt an incense's worth of time. Why did you come out so quickly?"
Wang Xiao held the book in his hands and smiled at the old man. He said excitedly, "En, yes, elder, I have already chosen one."
He knew that Wang Xiao was not ordinary since he was young, but the old man didn't know that Wang Xiao's appearance was that of a three year old child, but in this delicate appearance, his soul was eighteen years old, a person who came from a distant planet after the modern era. Of course, there were only two people who knew about this, and other than the heavens, that was Wang Xiao himself.
The old man stroked his white hair and said, "Since you've already found your favorite cultivation technique, then I'll tell you the rules of this library. After you borrow a cultivation technique for a month, you must return it, or else I will punish you with rules. Don't lose it."
Wang Xiao didn't say anything, but his face was filled with joy. He nodded and said, "Disciple will listen to the elder's teachings." He walked towards the main door very quickly, as if he was extremely impatient to check out the Tyrant Qi Method in his heart.
Outside the library, Wang Hentian and Mu Changqing were playing chess with serious expressions on their faces. Wang Hentian looked at the chessboard and finally dropped a chess piece.
Seeing Wang Hentian's chess piece fall, Mu Changqing was overjoyed. He finally stroked his snow-white beard and said happily, "Hehe, Hentian, looks like you'll have to lose this game again. This won't do, next time bring some good wine to me, I'm looking forward to drinking some and filling my stomach."
Wang Hentian's eyes fell on the board and he shook his head. He did not feel dejected at all, instead, he smiled and said, "Since elder wants to order wine, Hentian will send someone to bring some later. Elder, are you satisfied?"
Hearing Wang Hentian's words, Mu Changqing's eyes almost narrowed into slits as he laughed heartily and said, "Haha, that's more like it. This old man has lived in seclusion for three years and has always wanted some peace and quiet. Besides training, the only thing he enjoys is drinking."
As he was speaking, the door of the library suddenly opened by a small crack. A familiar figure was walking towards the door with large strides. Mu Changqing looked at the open door and then at the incense burner on the side. The incense was now yellow and half of the incense stick had been burnt, emitting a faint green smoke.
"This … Xiao'er, why did you come out so quickly? Did you not find the cultivation technique?" Seeing Wang Xiao walk towards the two with a smile on his face, Wang Hentian immediately stood up and said worriedly. A bit of anger had already emerged in Wang Hentian's eyes.
Wang Xiao was afraid that his father would misunderstand, so he quickly said, "No, thanks to the guidance from the elders inside, I found the martial art I want." As Wang Xiao said this, he quickly lifted up the martial skill he was holding in his arms.
