"Jianghu?"
"That sounds really fancy. What the hell is 'jianghu'?"
"Brother Feng, didn't you say you don't read martial arts novels? How come you've created a whole martial arts world?"
What is the Jianghu (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world)?
The term "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) held immense appeal for my roommates.
What is Jianghu (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world or the martial arts community)?
What is Jianghu?
What is the martial arts world like?
Is it the bloody battle of legend, yet also filled with tender romance?
The students in the ivory tower, hearing about the martial arts world for the first time, were incredibly curious and kept pestering Lin Yifeng, wanting to hear about what happened in the martial arts world.
"Actually, the so-called 'jianghu' (江湖, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry)..."
Lin Yifeng smiled; he really wanted to say some pretentious things in a literary style.
For example, the so-called "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) is not actually about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social customs.
For example, the so-called "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world) is not only about chivalry and justice, but also about romance and love.
For example, the so-called "jianghu" (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world) includes not only sword fights but also a sense of national and familial responsibility.
In fact, in Lin Yifeng's view, the so-called Jianghu (江湖, the martial arts world) is nothing more than people who are unwilling to live a peaceful life and want to go out and make their own way.
In his youth, he was restless and plunged into the world of martial arts, making his way in it.
If one makes a name for oneself, then one can naturally return home in glory.
If you don't make a name for yourself, no one will say anything about you when you return to your hometown.
People will be very understanding and say, "You've grown up, you're going home to live a peaceful life."
"The so-called 'jianghu' (江湖, a term referring to the martial arts world or江湖义气, a code of honor among righteous people) is whatever you think it is."
"What it looks like depends on your own understanding of it."
Everyone has a different understanding of the martial arts world; whatever they think the martial arts world is, that's what the martial arts world is.
Why are you suddenly acting so scholarly?
"Hey, Feng, this isn't like you at all. Aren't you the one who hates these literary-sounding replies the most?"
"Fake, so fake. This doesn't sound like something you would say. Tell me, which girl said this and how did you copy it?"
Lin Yifeng had already restrained himself from saying anything pretentious, but the two sentences he did say still seemed very pretentious to his roommates.
The 1990s were the golden age of literary and artistic youth.
In an era where "scar literature" is prevalent and folk singers casually sleep with girls, Lin Yifeng's words truly resonate with the literary aesthetics of this age.
However, these words didn't fit his public image, so his roommate suspected that Lin Yifeng had learned them from some girl.
Who is it?
The name Bai Yejin instantly popped into everyone's mind.
Bai Yejin, the goddess in the hearts of all the male students at Hebei Vocational University, also known as Bai Yuhuan or the White Empress, is closest to Lin Yifeng and has the best relationship with him!
"Brother Feng, how far have you progressed in your relationship with the White Queen?"
In the dormitory, someone asked the question that everyone wanted to ask, and everyone else in the dormitory looked at Lin Yifeng, expecting his answer.
These sexually repressed young men seem to have a strong desire for intimacy between men and women.
“...”
Looking at his roommates' gazes, Lin Yifeng felt as if he were looking at his junior, Wa, in a future life.
Although he was later known as Lao Deng, he frequently surfed the internet and occasionally encountered new things.
The way my roommates looked at me now was just like that of the group of junior students from Wa in later years—as if they had never seen a woman before, and if they saw one, they would want to call her "Mom."
"Let's be friends."
Lin Yifeng thought for a moment and then said.
He felt he couldn't tell his roommate that he and Bai Yejin had booked a hotel room together, that they had seen things they shouldn't have seen, and that they had even slept in the same bed.
However, since the two have not yet established a relationship, they can only be described as friends.
"True friend?"
"Truly a friend!"
"We've always kept our distance; we've never even held hands!"
Lin Yifeng lies without batting an eye, and in this innocent era, his roommate actually believed him.
"Brother Feng, you're not good enough either! You're not even as fast as Lao Zhang!"
"Old Zhang, he's already reached second base. After he graduates in a few days, he'll be aiming for third base and a home run!"
kindness?
Is Old Zhang going to second base?
In this day and age, being able to reach second base means that the relationship has reached a very good level.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they're discussing marriage.
Lin Yifeng turned his gaze to Old Zhang.
Old Zhang's full name is Zhang Simin. He is Lin Yifeng's dormitory student, but even less so than Yang Song.
He speaks very, very little. Although he rarely refuses group activities, he never offers any opinions or speaks up.
Wherever everyone suggested going, he would follow without ever complaining or spoiling the fun.
He usually speaks very little and always does his own thing quietly by himself, without disturbing his teammates.
Or rather, he never caused his roommates any trouble.
"Old Zhang has reached second base?"
"Really?"
"I'd believe it if you, Lao Liu, that artsy young man, got to second base, but Lao Zhang, such an honest guy, could possibly get to second base?"
Lin Yifeng really didn't believe it.
I haven't even reached second base since I was reborn, but Old Zhang has?
After his rebirth, the Yue Xiong he encountered was still riding a 28-inch bicycle, carrying Bai Ye Jin who mischievously braked suddenly, causing Bai Ye Jin to bounce on her back.
"You're so out of touch!"
"Old Zhang's wife came to visit him at school a couple of days ago. Old Zhang and his wife are already engaged, and they will get married after Old Zhang graduates."
Liu Fugui was very pleased with Lin Yifeng's approval.
See, this is what real strength is!
That's what you call strength!
Lin Yifeng thought I, Liu Fugui, could easily get to second base.
