Seeing through stones, the awakening of superpowers

Lin Xiao knew about the Xiao family's medicine, which was said to be the most powerful in the family, with the miraculous effect of bringing the dead back to life.

Medicine and poison have been inseparable since ancient times. The Xiao family is so powerful in medicine and pharmacy, so their poison skills must be very powerful as well. If these masters from the three major families behave strangely, it might be the Xiao family's poison skills that are at work.

But what are the Chu family’s paintings? Principal Lin knows that the Chu family is excellent at hidden weapons, but he has never heard that they are good at painting.

So Principal Lin asked:

"The Chu family's painting, what is that?"

Chu Hanfeng shook his head:

"I haven't seen it, but I heard them mention it once that time."

Principal Lin then asked:

"The Chu family's hidden weapon technique is known as a unique skill. Have you mastered it?"

Chu Hanfeng smiled bitterly and said:

"Mr. Lin, what we learned in the training was only the cultivation method, and I found that what they taught us was completely different from what they practiced themselves. As for mechanical arts, that is the most important skill of the Chu family, and it is impossible for them to teach us, the side branches."

Principal Lin nodded, but he still had some hope for the painting Chu Hanfeng was talking about:

"Think about it again. Did you see any paintings when you were concentrating on training?"

Chu Hanfeng thought for a while, then shook his head and said:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I never noticed it."

Principal Lin then asked:

"Then think about it, was there anything special when you were practicing at that time?"

Chu Hanfeng thought for a while, then said:

"There is only one main method we practice, which is engraved on bamboo slips. However, the bamboo slips are all modern texts and simple movement meridian diagrams. It is not a heritage."

Lin Xiao was somewhat interested. He had not heard any information from the Baili and Xiao family masters about the bamboo slips, so he asked:

"Bamboo slips? Do each of you have one? Do you still have them with you?"

Chu Hanfeng shook his head:

"There was only one copy, and the exercises recorded on it were probably more than 3,000 words long. At that time, each of us was required to memorize it."

"Everyone is required to recite it? Isn't there only one bamboo slip? Each person should read it for one day?"

Chu Hanfeng continued to shake his head:

"No, Master Lin, that set of bamboo slips is extremely exquisitely made and very large, about six meters by nine meters, so we can watch and recite together."

Lin Xiao originally thought that the bamboo slips Chu Hanfeng was talking about were the kind that could be rolled up, but he didn't expect them to be this big:

"Such a big bamboo slip? Did you take a picture?"

Chu Hanfeng shook his head:

"No, they strictly prohibited taking photos, and even copying was not allowed. But I still remember what the bamboo slips looked like: the bamboo was a large dark green bamboo, the characters were all gilded and strung together with silver thread, and there was a cinnabar bead between each bamboo slip. In short, it was extremely exquisite."

Principal Lin couldn't help but wonder:

"You are strictly prohibited from copying. Didn't you ask you to recite it? After you memorize it, write it down yourself. They won't find out, right?"

Chu Hanfeng smiled bitterly and said:

"Young Master Lin, you may not believe this, but after we concentrated on practicing this set of skills, we all forgot the contents of it, but our strength increased by leaps and bounds."

"Forget everything. Did the Chu family use some kind of hand-breaking technique on you?"

Chu Hanfeng nodded and shook his head:

"As far as I can remember, they didn't use any special methods, but maybe my memory has been tampered with, and it's possible that I don't remember anything."

Principal Lin saw Chu Hanfeng like this and knew that he couldn't get any more out of him, so he nodded:

"Your information may be of some use. I originally wanted to teach you a lesson, but seeing that you've performed well, I'll let you go this time.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin!"

Chu Hanfeng replied calmly.

Principal Lin saw that Chu Hanfeng had always looked calm and asked:

"I heard that you need a lot of resources to practice, which is very expensive. The Chu family only gives you two million per year, which is enough."

Chu Hanfeng frowned slightly when he heard this:

"It's not enough. Resources can indeed improve our strength faster, but if resources are not enough, then we can make up for it with practice time. I practice at least four hours more than others every day, so my strength has always been ahead of others among the masters of the Chu family."

Principal Lin smiled and said:

"I see that you have always been acting like a hermit. Do you care about your position in the Chu family and your martial arts skills?"

Chu Hanfeng shook his head:

"Mr. Lin, maybe you are mistaken. The reason why I can maintain the status of a hermit master is because I am already the best among the masters of the Chu family and can handle various tasks calmly. If I am not strong enough, I will definitely be in a mess and will no longer be able to maintain my current status."

Principal Lin didn't expect the other party to give such an answer, and couldn't help but look at him with higher regard.

Indeed, it is often the most capable people who can appear the calmest and composed, just like Principal Lin himself. Now there is almost nothing that can affect his mood.

But he still said:

"Your friends went to the party and each received a 5 million red envelope. Aren't you jealous at all?"

Chu Hanfeng's eyes twitched slightly:

"Mr. Lin, are you talking about if?"

Principal Lin shook his head:

"It's not if. You can ask your companions. I gave everyone a red envelope of 5 million at the meeting. The money was transferred directly to the account on the spot."

Hearing Principal Lin say this, the corners of Chu Hanfeng's mouth began to twitch.

Indeed, his character is calm and indifferent, but as he said, all of this is based on his superior strength. It is just like the fact that only rich people don't care about money.

Chu Hanfeng looked calm, but he was still very persistent in becoming stronger. In addition to the basic needs of food and clothing, he actually spent all his money on cultivation, and spent a long time on it, which led to his current strength. Compared with other masters, his life was the most difficult.

Fortunately, he was born with no strong desires in other aspects. He only needed to make sure he had enough meat to eat, and all he wore and used were cheap things. He had suffered a heartbreak in his early years, which led him to stay away from women, so he had almost no expenses in other aspects.

For such a poor person, hearing that he had just missed out on five million was the same feeling as if he had bought a lottery ticket and won five million, and then lost the ticket.

Chu Hanfeng felt very sad, but he could only pretend to be calm:

"They are really lucky."

Principal Lin couldn't help laughing when he saw how annoyed he was but trying to pretend to be calm.

To be honest, among the five top masters from the three major families I met today, Chu Hanfeng is the one I like the most.
