"What do you mean you have to leave? If you stay, no one in the village will chase you away!" Lin Xue'er said.

Chu Ming said, "If I don't leave, the officials will definitely come and search. If they find out, the villagers will all be in trouble, so I must leave."

Lin Xue'er took a deep breath and turned her head.

Lin Jin patted Chu Ming's shoulder. He looked at the skinny boy and asked, "What are you planning to do in the future?"

"Plans?" Chu Ming shook his head and said, "I don't have any plans. I don't care where I go. I just want to be where I am. I just want to be where I am."

Regardless of whether it was the essence of the bones, the reaction of the mind, or the way people believed that he was a genius, even the seeds of his face seemed to be exactly the same. However, there was one thing that made people feel weird, it was Chu Ming's meridians, he once probed, Chu Ming might not be an ordinary person, but he had completely relied on his techniques to win, his development was limited, and he was initially unwilling to mention this, but when Chu Ming was about to leave, he asked him, perhaps he could help him.

"Lad, do you have any internal energy?" Lin Jin asked directly.

Chu Ming stared blankly for a moment, then said, "Yes, how did you know?"

"It's too easy to talk about it." Lin Jin said, "Tell me, how come you don't have an inner force skill? Originally, with your talent, learning an inner force skill was definitely not a difficult task."

Chu Ming raised the Four Techniques Sword and looked back and forth before saying, "All 12 of my acupoints have been sealed. I will never be able to learn inner force again."

"Oh? "Why is that?" Lin Jin asked curiously.

"I was poisoned by the dragon poison when I was young." Chu Ming paused for a moment and said, "In order to seal the poison, my grandfather gathered all of his internal energy and sealed all 12 of the acupoints on my body to prevent the dragon poison from spreading."

Lin Jin frowned, and pulled Chu Ming's hand, number one, and said, "So that's how it is." "However, your grandfather is very powerful as well. This Sealing Dragon Poison requires extremely powerful internal energy. It is not easy for him."

"Yeah." Chu Ming did not want to talk about Lu Zeng.

Lin Jin could also see it, so he said, "However, he only sealed 12 of your major acupoints, so you can still have inner force skills."

"Oh?" When Chu Ming heard this, he became extremely excited. He hastily asked, "What do you mean?"

"Three of the twelve major acupoints have bodies, three of them are on the head, but the other three are on the right and right feet. That is to say, if you make some changes, you can still gather some inner strength in your left and left hands."

Chu Ming frowned and said, "My dantian can't gather all of the internal energy, how can I gather the internal energy in my left leg?"

Lin Jin smiled and said: "Brat, you sure are lucky to have met me."

"You will?" Chu Ming said in surprise.

"I won't." Lin Jin immediately replied.

Chu was obviously depressed.

"But I have a friend who does." Lin Jin immediately smiled, "If you can receive his guidance, you will truly be able to soar to greatness."

Chu Ming's expression immediately changed and he asked with interest, "Who's there? Tell me."

"I can't tell you who, because there are some rules that I can't break, but I can give you a suggestion." Lin Jin had caught Chu Ming's appetite.

Chu Ming asked, "What suggestion?"

Lin Jin said, "Do you know of the God Island?"

"The Divine Island?" Chu Ming suddenly felt that this name was very familiar. After thinking about it for a while, he still couldn't think of it. Suddenly, he glanced at the four methods in his hand.

Lin Jin said with a smile, "To the north, there is a big snow-capped mountain. If you are destined to see this old man standing on the peak of the snow-capped mountain, you can tell him my name. If he was happy at that time, you might have had the chance to enter the Divine Island."

Chu Ming was a little puzzled and said, "What does entering the God Island have to do with the big acupoints in my body?"

"You'll know when the time comes." Lin Jin patted Chu Ming's shoulder and said, "I hope that you will be blessed."

Chu Ming nodded and said, "Thank you for taking care of me, Uncle Lin."

"Actually, when I see you, I have the same feeling as when I was young." Lin Jin smiled foolishly.

Chu Ming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't want to be like Lin Jin, who was old and slovenly.

"Alright, I don't have anything else to say. I can only hope that you can be like me and get your own happiness soon." Lin Jin spoke sincerely and earnestly.

Chu Ming cupped his hands together and turned around, heading out of the village. On the way, he looked back several times.

Lin Jin said from the side, "Aren't you going to send him off?"

Lin Xue'er coldly snorted and said, "What does it have to do with me!"

With that, she stood up and walked into the room.

Lin Jin shook his head, "Silly girl."

"..."

Chu Ming left Haikou Village and headed straight north. Ever since he found out that he still had inner force, his mood was elated. Although he didn't know if he could meet the old man in green clothes that Lin Jin talked about, as long as there was a sliver of hope, he still wanted to work hard.

Along the way, Chu Ming had passed by many towns, many of them bustling, desolate, and many different kinds of things. Not only had he gained a lot of knowledge, but he had also traveled a lot of places, and his mood was extremely relaxed. He did not know why, but the feeling of never being able to find it once again came back to him.

After passing through a town, Chu Ming would sleep at night in the wilderness. Firstly, he would save some money and secondly, he couldn't find an inn. If this continued, Chu Ming would sleep near a big tree, which made him feel a bit funny.

On this day, after Chu Ming had spent the night in the wilderness, he walked onto the official road. The road was wide, and there were many people on it, so Chu Ming casually grabbed a person and asked for directions, then he continued his journey north until he reached a small tea stand. Chu Ming's throat was extremely thirsty, so he went into the tea shop, found a seat, and sat down, asked for a cup of tea, and took the time to rest.

As it was situated on the main road, the passersby were all very dense, and the small tea shop's business was very tight as well. The owner kept making tea, but he could not supply enough.

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly. Chu Ming reached out his hand to block the light, but felt that it was not effective. Thus, he decided to finish his wine and continue on his journey.

Just as they were about to settle the bill, another two scholars came and sat down next to Chu Ming. Seeing that there was someone at the table, they quickly bowed to him in respect.

Chu Ming returned the politeness and did not bother to return the greeting. In the end, he prepared to leave. Suddenly, he heard the two scholars start to converse.

"I heard that the Duke of Qingzhou, Liu Ming, was assassinated." The white-clothed scholar spoke with some excitement.

The green-clothed scholar said, "Isn't that so? He had already placed a bounty long ago. I heard that the first price started at one million and five hundred thousand taels of silver, and now it has doubled!"

"Three million?" "The imperial government really has a hand in this. If they feed us poor and poor scholars, they might even be able to cultivate Zhuge Kongming!" The white-clothed scholar loudly sighed, appearing extremely unwilling.

"Isn't it so? He threw three million silver for a dead person and you said that the person who assassinated the Qingzhou Marquis was really strong. His head alone could match the cost of a frontline army." The green-clothed scholar also sighed.

The white-clothed scholar pounded the table, and said: "Look, there is a high chance that we, the students who are rushing to take the examinations in Shang Jing, have sold our possessions. If we fail, I'm afraid there would be even more people jumping into the Luo River!" "What a sinner!"

"Brother Dong might not understand, but I heard from the village's seniors that all the time, the officials in the imperial court were only able to test each other, and those who could do so were all people who were related to each other. The only ones who knew how to write were the few officials who were able to do so through the back door.

"Are you for real?" The white-clothed scholar was stunned.

"I'm not too sure about this, so I'm going with the flow. Let's give it a try. If I fail, then I might as well return home to farm next year!"

"Yes, yes." The white-clothed scholar nodded. "If I don't pass, I'll have to find some means of livelihood, or else I'll starve to death sooner or later."

"This year ?"

"It really isn't worth his head ?"

"Sigh ?"

Chu Ming heard this and sighed. He quickly got up, paid the bill, and then headed north.
