Chapter 164 Discovering a Promising Martial Arts Talent

"Luo Xi... Luo Xi, why... why are we running?" After the sudden strenuous exercise, Lin Wenjin and Lin Luoting were out of breath, panting heavily, and asked Lin Luo Xi intermittently.

"Because if you want to master martial arts, your physical fitness needs to keep up." Seeing that Lin Wenjin and Lin Luoting were in great pain but did not give up, Lin Luoxi finally told them the truth.

"What? Practicing martial arts, like the ones in storybooks, martial arts that can punish evil and uphold justice?"

Upon hearing the word "martial arts," Lin Wenjin's eyes lit up as she watched Lin Luoxi's previous exhaustion and weakness vanish without a trace.

Lin Wenjin had always admired powerful martial arts masters since she was a child. Now, hearing that Lin Luoxi said they were practicing martial arts, she felt no discomfort at all and her blood was boiling.

Good heavens, such a dreamlike thing only exists in storybooks, I never thought he would actually encounter it.

However, after Lin Luoxi's reminder, Lin Wenjin instantly recalled the scene he had witnessed when Lin Luoxi was dealing with Lin Daguang, where she was able to leap into the air.

Thanks to his mother for bringing them to the Lin family so early in the morning; otherwise, they would have missed such a wonderful opportunity.

Thinking of this, I felt full of energy, my lungs felt better, and my legs had strength again, so I ran forward quickly.

Lin Luoxi was worried that he wouldn't be good enough at running, so she didn't plan to teach him martial arts.

"What triggered him?" Lin Wenqian and Xie Hanchuan, who were running ahead, looked at Lin Wenjin, who had suddenly run ahead of them. They exchanged a glance and saw confusion and bewilderment in each other's eyes.

At the same time, Lin Wenjin stirred up his competitive spirit, and he began to speed up.

Seeing that the children had all run ahead, Lin Dayou was not to be outdone and started running forward as well.

He was an adult with long legs, and he could run faster than Lin Wenqian, Xie Hanchuan, and Lin Wenjin in two steps in one run.

Seeing that the four ahead of them had sped up, the people behind them dared not slack off and crawled forward with all their might.

In an instant, the mountain road they were running on became a scene of chasing each other.

The journey, which should have taken half an hour, was completed a full quarter of an hour ahead of schedule.

"Heh, it seems that letting them join in was a good choice." Standing on the mountaintop, Lin Jize smiled with satisfaction as he looked at Lin Dayou's situation.

After running five laps, without Lin Jize even saying a word, the eight of them first stretched their hamstrings and then squatted in the same horse stance in the same spot.

"It really does look like martial arts practice." Lin Wenjin watched as Lin Daluo and the others squatted in a horse stance, observing their standard movements, and finally confirmed that Lin Luoxi and the others were indeed practicing martial arts.

He didn't complain about being tired. Whatever Lin Luoxi and the others were doing, he would pull his younger sister along and do it too.

"I didn't expect this kid to be such a promising martial arts talent." Even the reporter couldn't help but marvel at how well Lin Wenjin performed his movements without needing any instruction.

The slight displeasure he felt at Lin Luoxi's sudden addition of people vanished without a trace.

He also wanted to thank Lin Luoxi for bringing him such a good martial arts prospect.

Lin Luoxi was a prodigy in ancient martial arts in modern times. However, the original Lin Luoxi had poor physical fitness, so she had to train her physical fitness with everyone else.

Because Lin Wenjin had just joined, Lin Jize's plan to teach Lin Dayou and the others some simple moves was postponed.

After squatting in a horse stance, everyone followed Lin Luoxi in doing stretching exercises before heading down the mountain.

The land reclamation work at home is not yet finished, and everyone is squeezing in time to practice martial arts.

Covered in sweat, they didn't even have time to shower. After quickly changing into clean clothes, they joined the villagers who had already arrived and rejoined the land reclamation team.

Lin Luoxi had already planned how to utilize the 800 acres of wasteland, so she took the lead and followed the main group to clear the land.

Yesterday, everyone received their wages, and the next day, some villagers couldn't help but gather around the busy Lin Luoxi.

He simply wanted his family to come along and help him clear land and make money.

Lin Luoxi's answer was simple: Aunt Yang was in charge of this matter, and if they wanted to sign up, they should talk to Aunt Yang.

Some villagers immediately wilted upon hearing Lin Luoxi's words.

After all, Lin Yangshi knew exactly what kind of people her own family members were. If they were really capable of working, they wouldn't have needed to ask Lin Luoxi for help.

Seeing the hesitation in those people's eyes, Lin Luoxi knew what they were planning, and a distant smile appeared on her lips.

Hmph, just because she was stupid before doesn't mean she's stupid now.

She has some money now, but that doesn't mean she can let some people come and make fun of her or take advantage of her. What would the other hardworking and efficient villagers think?

After being rebuffed by Lin Luoxi, some people set their sights on Lin Dayou.

They figured Lin Dayou was always kind-hearted and helpful, so they were sure he would agree.

But since Lin Luoxi was able to shift the topic to Aunt Yang, she must have already anticipated this situation and had already come up with a solution.

Lin Luoxi is in charge of the Lin family. She manages all matters, big and small. Anyone who wants to sign up for land reclamation can just ask Lin Luoxi; they can't make the decision themselves.

There was no other way. Working for the Lin family paid well and included meals. Everyone wanted their family members to come and earn extra wages. This temptation forced them to beg Lin Yang.

"Hmph, what are you up to? Don't think I don't know."

"What kind of people are you? I believe you know your family better than I do."

"Do you really think Lossie will accept just anyone here? Be careful not to squander your own spot."

Lin Yangshi didn't hold back at all when these shameless villagers came up to her asking to add more people to their group.

Since Luo Xi has entrusted this matter to her, she must handle it properly and not let these people take advantage of Luo Xi.

Her two children just told her that Lin Luoxi and her family were willing to lead them in learning martial arts.

Martial arts are the most powerful self-defense skill. If you really learn them, even if you can't become a top scholar in the civil service exam, becoming a top martial arts scholar wouldn't be bad either.

“Aunt Yang, what are you saying? Everyone is making money for Luo Xi. What’s wrong with one more person? It’s not like you’re the one paying for it.” One of the villagers, who was not convinced, couldn’t help but retort after hearing Lin Yang’s words.

"Hmph, it's true that I'm not paying for it, but Luo Xi said that there are only so many people available for pioneering. If you want your family to come and pioneer, then you should give up your spot!"

Lin Yangshi was also quite eloquent; seeing that the other party was unconvinced, she showed no fear and directly...
