I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 373 Elders’ Advice: A Gentleman Hides His Weapons

On the slopes of Qingyun Mountain, the warm afternoon breeze blew through the boundless wilderness, lifting up layers of wavy grass and bringing a light fragrance.

Master Changqing just stood on the hillside, looking at the mountains in the distance. After speaking just now, it took a while before he said lightly:

"Boy Lin, you...should not be from Lingnan, or even from this world, right?"

"Oh?" Lin Chen's eyes froze, and his body froze even more imperceptibly. Then he neither confirmed nor denied, but smiled nonchalantly, "Does the Patriarch think I am an extraterrestrial demon?"

"It is recorded in the classical Taoist books that extraterrestrial demons can not only confuse people's hearts, but also corrode souls, and even forcibly possess and control them." Master Chang Qing said undeniably.

"So when demons from outside the world come into the world, they should focus on seizing bodies. And the most important thing is that among these beings, which one is not a top powerhouse, overlooking the practice of Qi refining from a high-rise building, can completely master all methods with one method, so why not Do you work so hard to collect and study martial arts books?"

"Furthermore, I have observed that your spirit and energy are in harmony, and your spirit and spirit are in agreement. It shows that you are not a demon from outside the territory who has seized your body. Therefore, I guess that you are either a person from the Middle Earth outside, or a visitor from a foreign land who was reincarnated in Lingnan by chance. I wonder if my guess is correct?"

Lin Chen was silent for a moment and did not answer the question. Instead, he asked, "Why did the Patriarch have such thoughts?"

"It's very simple, thinking." Master Changqing pointed to his head, "Appearances can be changed, behaviors can be disguised, but one person's thoughts cannot be the same in any case, even in daily life and every move. It can all be reflected.”

Then, he turned around and looked at Lin Chen: "If I remember correctly, there is a disciple named Xu Mengyun in the sect. She seems to have created a platform with you?"

Lin Chen understood instantly at this moment, and couldn't help but reveal a wry smile on his face: "The Patriarch really has a sharp eye."

He now vaguely understood why Master Changqing had such doubts.

The reason is very simple, that is, the concepts he revealed in building the platform, the management methods, the sales structure, etc., may not be a problem for ordinary people, but for those who have lived a long time and have seen a lot of the world. How could the old fox not notice anything unusual?

Yes, his ideas and methods may not be groundbreaking for the world of immortality, but they are completely different from the past, and the most important thing is that they are too relatively complete.

A new concept and management method must go through a long exploration process from being proposed to being perfected. In this process, there are many loopholes that can be exploited and suppressed.

But some old foxes in the sect have long noticed the platform created by Lin Chen. Although they dare not blatantly take it for themselves due to Lin Chen's status as a true disciple, there are countless attempts to suppress and imitate it secretly.

But Xu Mengyun used a relatively mature and complete system to deal with it, so how could it not be suspicious.

After all, coming up with a basic structure can be described as a genius, but even various coping methods and emergencies can be anticipated, and there are even ways to suppress peers, and they can be relatively perfect. This must be done Corrections will be detected with the passage of time.

And this still requires a team to do it, and if one person can do this, there is probably a problem.

"I only focused on earning a sufficient amount of spiritual stone resources, but I did neglect this point." The bitter smile on Lin Chen's face became thicker, "I would also like to thank the ancestor for helping to cover it up."

Although Master Changqing didn't explain anything, Lin Chen had already vaguely guessed that without the help of the other party to cover up or back him up, he might not be able to get enough from the platform under the heavy attacks from the sect's interest class. resources.

Once he fails to obtain enough resources, his inner alchemy experiment will be blocked, and he will not be able to reach the late stage of foundation building. If he participates in the Lingnan War in that state, whether he can survive is a matter of two minds. What's more, Not to mention achieving the golden elixir.

"I just expressed my attitude. Fortunately, you had already left Qingyun Sect by that time. Otherwise, you would not have been trapped in the swamp of human relationships and competition for interests. I am afraid you would not have achieved what you have today." Master Changqing shook his head, and then said something. Youyou pointed out, "But even if I helped you secretly, your Miss Xu is the one who really took the lead. I believe she didn't tell you about the hardships involved. You have to take good care of yourself." Thank you."

"I will." Lin Chen nodded.

Master Changqing looked at Lin Chen's face and couldn't help but feel speechless. He felt that this kid was quite smart. Why didn't he understand the meaning of his words? However, this was a matter for their young people, and it was hard for him, an elder, to say anything.

Immediately, he continued: "And not only the platform matter, but also the counter-hunting, the earth-exploding sky star and other matters later are enough to reveal a lot of things."

"Indeed." Lin Chen was silent for a moment and followed his words to analyze, "A person's ability can be seen from his growth trajectory. If you are half a step ahead, you can be called a genius, but if you are one step ahead, then There is really a problem.”

Speaking of this, Lin Chen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

Since Master Changqing explained it to him again, it means that he has no intention of doing anything to him, and they will not even ask about Lin Chen's life experience again.

But before that, how many people in the sect noticed something was wrong? Before he could advance to the golden elixir and had the ability to protect himself, did Master Chang Qing and others have any other thoughts about him?

Ever since he was a child, Lin Chen has always liked to plan and arrange things, even leaving enough backup.

There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this, but the problem is that he is a time traveler, and he is very accustomed to using the thinking of his previous life when arranging various things.

Perhaps for ordinary people, there is indeed no problem, but for those old foxes, or those who are good at analyzing opponents, it is easy to notice that something is wrong.

But Lin Chen didn't notice this, because getting used to this kind of thing is the least likely to arouse people's vigilance.

At this time, Master Changqing sounded in Lin Chen's ear: "It seems that you have also realized that you have made a mistake."

"This time, I really want to thank the ancestor for reminding me." Lin Chen took a long breath and bowed to Master Changqing sincerely.

If he didn't realize this and just went out to the outside world without paying attention to anything, the monks in Middle-earth might not necessarily pay any attention to it.

At the least, it means suppressing you and turning you into a slave; at worst, it means defining you as a parasite incarnated by the devil, draining your soul and refining your soul.

"No thanks. You are a disciple of the Qingyun Sect. I have already regarded you as a junior. It is indeed appropriate to give you a few words of advice." Master Changqing stroked his white beard and smiled, as if he saw Lin Chen deflated. He looked a little happy.

"But you must be extremely careful when you go to the outside world this time. After all, you are an outsider. People from Middle-earth are not so easy to talk to." Later, Master Changqing warned.

"What the Patriarch said is absolutely true." Lin Chen nodded, "I think I will be very careful not to reveal any flaws in the future."

At worst, he would just follow the crowd and integrate into this cultivating society to avoid being noticed and causing problems.

Hearing these words, Master Changqing nodded and showed a serious look: "Now that I have said this, I also have something to tell you."

"Ancestor, please speak." Lin Chen's face became solemn and he said with cupped hands.

After some exchanges, he knew that Master Changqing and the others were really doing it for his own good, and they could not neglect such elders' advice no matter what.

"A gentleman hides his weapons and waits until the time comes." Master Changqing said these eight words slowly.

"What the Patriarch means is that when we go out to Lingnan this time and arrive in China, we should live in peace on weekdays and try not to attract anyone's attention. But at critical moments, we should take action boldly and seize the opportunity, like a roc catching the wind. Skyrocketing to 90,000 miles?" Lin Chen said.

"That's right. I believe you all understand this truth, but what I want to emphasize to you this time is not to wait and act, but to hide the treasure of a gentleman." Master Changqing said.

"Master, please explain clearly." Lin Chen said seriously.

"Seize the opportunity and ride on the wind, I believe you all understand, but before that, it is essential to maintain the weapon and hide it." Master Changqing said patiently.

"What is a container, and how to hide it?"

"To cultivate a weapon is to understand your strengths that are better than others, and to cultivate them to the extreme." Master Changqing pointed at Lin Chen and said, "And your advantage lies in your thinking that is different from other monks. This is The most precious thing in you, you have to use it to the extreme. This is the key to determining your path to immortality, and it is also the 'tool' for you to settle down and live your life!"

Master Changqing continued: "Of course, you have done a good job in this, and I believe you can persevere, but what I want to tell you next is that you must learn to hide weapons!"

"Just not showing up in front of others, pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?" Lin Chen asked.

"A gentleman hides weapons to hide his outstanding abilities, not to hide like a tortoise who swallows his anger!" Master Changqing categorically objected, "You just hide it blindly. When the time comes, the villain will bully you, and the superior will bully you." I won’t take you seriously, and you will be the first to be discarded... By that time, you will no longer be a hidden weapon, but will disappear from everyone!"

"A gentleman hides his weapon to let the villain know that you are not easy to mess with, but you are not clear about the depth, so he does not dare to frame you easily. It is to let the superior know that you are capable, but not so sharp that you will become suspicious... And you accumulate strength in this process, and when the wind comes, you can skyrocket to ninety thousand miles!" Master Changqing said solemnly.

But Lin Chen frowned when he heard it: "Grandmaster, if you say so, how can you do it?"

"In this world, people are so sophisticated and people's hearts change. I can't explain them one by one. I can only give you three general pointers!" Master Changqing pointed out, "To put it simply, it means making good use of tools, knowing people well, and knowing how to take advantage of situations!"

"I hope the Patriarch will make it clear." Lin Chen said.

"Making good use of tools is to develop one's own superior abilities to a profound level, and then go beyond the main job, look for breakthrough opportunities, and then feed back to the main job."

"For example, the book writing method you created can allow the talented people among them to jump out of their own level, make friends with monks at different levels, and get information outside the circle. This can be used for..."

I don't know how long it took, but Lin Chen's figure was the only one left on the hillside blown by the breeze.

Lin Chen looked at the boundless mountains in the distance with a wry smile on his face, but also a hint of emotion:

"Oh, after all, we can't underestimate this hero in the world..."
