Lin Zhongtian was lying on the balcony of the attic, looking over the courtyard wall at the situation outside the mansion.

After the housekeeper left the attic, she brought people outside and told them what Lin Zhongtian meant. The leader of the convoy looked disappointed, but did not act rudely. He just left the last carriage behind and led the team away.

Soon, the only ancient book in the last carriage appeared in Lin Zhongtian's hands.

Lin Zhongtian flipped through the ancient book, put it aside, and said calmly: "Just because I don't accept disciples doesn't mean my junior brother won't accept disciples. If the Duke's Mansion is really interested, let's wait until my junior brother comes back!"

The housekeeper nodded and said, "Next time I see Old Madam Cheng, I will answer like this."

After the housekeeper left, the little girls' morning exercises were almost over.

Seeing that they had already stretched their muscles, Lin Zhongtian stood up, turned over and jumped off the balcony, landed lightly on the ground, and began to provide one-on-one special guidance for each person.

After breakfast, there was a one-hour math class.

The little girls complained bitterly, but still sat in the classroom and listened to the class obediently.

Taking into account the different learning progress of these girls, Lin Zhongtian divided them into three classes: large, medium and small, and taught them in batches and at different time periods.

However, Lin Zhongtian was too lazy to waste his vacation time on this, so he secretly cheated and took out a nano-simulation robot from the storage ring, installed artificial intelligence, and made it look like him, so that he could coach on his behalf.

In this way, the eight little girls spent a fulfilling yet painful week under Lin Zhongtian's teaching.

A week later, Lin Zhongtian met a woman with a rather special identity in the snow-covered yard.

"Xin Yue from Shu, nice to meet Brother Lin Shi!"

The woman was dressed in a white fur coat and performed in the manner expected of her peers. Her words and actions were neither delicate nor artificial nor fussy. Instead, she was generous and open-minded, without the slightest hint of pettiness.

Lin Zhongtian looked at the woman's pretty face with great interest, his eyes focusing on her hair accessories and the topaz hairpins dotted among her black hair.

Feeling Lin Zhongtian's gaze, Xin Yue's body stiffened, but she still suppressed her nervousness and smiled.

Lin Zhongtian nodded and said with a smile, "No need to be polite, sister-in-law."

After hearing this, Xin Yue finally felt relieved.

As Yun Ye's wife-to-be, although Xin Yue has already been engaged to Yun Ye, marrying into the Yun family is a foregone conclusion.

But in front of this senior brother Yun Ye, whose origins were mysterious, she, who had been very confident, inexplicably lacked confidence.

There is no way, Lin Zhongtian’s first impression is too dazzling.

That kind of otherworldly temperament, like that of a banished immortal, can easily make ordinary people feel ashamed of themselves.

Fortunately, this handsome young man with an extraordinary temperament and who looked like a disciple of a god did not look down on her.

The words "sister-in-law" were used to completely confirm Xin Yueyun's identity as Ye's wife.

This kind of affirmation made Xin Yue happier even than when the old lady of the Yun family sent her the token of love, because it was an affirmation from the mysterious master behind Yun Ye.

That was a place that even his father, Mr. Yushan, and a group of great scholars in the academy were fascinated by.

Thinking of this, Xin Yue couldn't help but smile: "Brother, I should have visited you earlier, but the elders of the academy saw that the Yun family seemed to have blocked the news about brother, and thought that brother didn't want to be disturbed, so they delayed it for some time..."

"It's okay, I really don't want to be disturbed."

Lin Zhongtian waved his hand, then asked with a smile: "So, Yushan Academy already knows that I'm here?"

Xin Yue nodded and explained, "A month ago, Gongshu's men came to Yushan Academy with Brother Yunshi's recommendation letter, and have lived in the academy ever since..."

"I see!"

Lin Zhongtian nodded and said thoughtfully, "When the victory report was returned to Beijing last time, there was also a letter from Gongshu Jia with the team. I was mentioned in the letter, so Yushan Academy knew about my existence from then on."

Xin Yue smiled and said, "Brother Shi is really smart!"

Lin Zhongtian shook his head: "What kind of intelligence is this? It's just a lack of information!"

In this expedition, Yun Ye not only gained some military merit from the great victory, but also met the descendants of Gongshu Ban who lived in seclusion.

Long before Lin Zhongtian appeared, Yun Ye defeated Gongshu Jia who came to provoke him with the knowledge and wisdom of later generations. He then persuaded Gongshu Jia to come out of seclusion with words and recommended them to teach at Yushan Academy.

When Lin Zhongtian appeared, Gongshujia's large group of people had already rushed to Chang'an.

The one who still stayed with Yun Ye was Gongshu Jia, the son of Gongshu Mu, the current leader of the Gongshu family.

Lin Zhongtian had met him several times and knew that the crossbow carts accompanying the team were the work of Gongshujia.

The only way Yushan Academy knew of his existence now was through the information received from Gongshu Jia.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "The gentlemen from the academy want to see me?"

Xin Yue bowed and said softly, "Brother Shi is a disciple of the immortal. He is extremely talented and has amazing martial arts skills. He is proficient in both literature and martial arts."

"Mr. Gongshu also praised you highly in his reply. The gentlemen in the academy are fascinated by you and naturally want to appreciate your demeanor!"

"However, whether to meet or not depends on Brother Shi's own wishes."

"If you are willing, please go to Yushan Academy in the evening. At that time, Mr. Yushan, our ancestor, Mr. Li Gang and other senior members of the academy will be waiting for you in the academy!"

"In the evening?" Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "The gentlemen in the academy want to test me!" Seeing that Lin Zhongtian revealed the truth without hesitation, Xin Yue couldn't help but be amazed.

After a slight hesitation, she blinked and an embarrassed look appeared on her face.

Just as she was about to explain, Lin Zhongtian waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay. I've heard from my junior brother that the teachers in the academy are all great scholars and are very confident in their talents."

"People like this may appear humble on the outside, but they are actually arrogant on the inside."

"They have seen Junior Brother's abilities, so they are willing to acknowledge him as a divine disciple."

"But I am different. I came from nowhere and I am Senior Brother Yunye. The teachers in the academy have only heard Gongshu Jia bragging but have never seen him with their own eyes. Naturally, they are dissatisfied. It is understandable..."

Seeing that Lin Zhongtian had explained it clearly, Xin Yue hesitated for a moment, but still whispered: "Not really. In fact, the only one who wants to test Brother Shi is Mr. Gongshu who has just come to the academy."

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows: "Gongshu Jia's father Gongshu Mu?"

Xin Yue nodded and continued to tell Lin Zhongtian: "Besides, I think Mr. Gongshu wants to do more than just test Brother Shi. He is new to the academy and lacks prestige, so few students are willing to learn his skills."

"I personally think that Mr. Gongsun might take this opportunity to show his family's thoughts to the students of the academy and other teachers..."

Lin Zhongtian nodded slightly, looked at her with interest and said, "Sister-in-law, you really see things clearly!"

Xin Yue said embarrassedly, "Brother Shi, you are too kind."

Lin Zhongtian thought about it and said with a smile: "Well, then I'll give you a favor!"

Xin Yue was flattered and said she dared not.

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said, "It's settled then. I'll go to the academy in the evening to keep the appointment."

"As for now, this is our first meeting, and it's a bit rushed. As your elder brother, I haven't prepared anything, so I'll just give you a treasure from our sect as a gift. I hope you won't mind."

"When Yun Ye returns and you two get married, I will give you more generous gifts!"

As he spoke, Lin Zhongtian took out a palm-sized object from his arms and handed it to Xin Yue.

Xin Yue wanted to humbly refuse, but when she heard the words "master's treasure", she took it anyway.

There was no way. After seeing the weird knowledge in Yun Ye's mind, everyone in Yushan Academy, from top to bottom, developed a blind faith in Yun Ye's so-called master.

Even the current emperor Li Er believed that anything related to Master Yun Ye was definitely a good thing that the world had never seen before!

As Yun Ye's wife-to-be, Xin Yue naturally has a deeper understanding of this.

After all, she was wearing a hairpin on her head that Yun Ye brought from the future.

This thing was designed for Yun Ye’s wife by a jewelry maker friend in his previous life. It is made of silver, with topaz as the base, and rhinestones inlaid to form a lotus flower.

In later times, such things are naturally not worth much.

But in this day and age, the craftsmanship of hairpins can definitely be called unique and ingenious.

Because of this, when Xin Yue came to visit Lin Zhongtian, she did not wear any other jewelry and only wore this hairpin, for she was worried about showing off her skills in front of Lin Zhongtian and making a fool of herself.

"Thank you, brother!"

Xin Yue took the gift, bowed generously, and thanked Lin Zhongtian.

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows, then smiled and nodded, accepting Xin Yue's temporary change of address.

Xin Yue held the so-called sect's treasure of strange texture and looked at it curiously. After she was sure that she really couldn't recognize what it was, she looked at Lin Zhongtian embarrassedly.

"Brother, what is this?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly and said softly: "First turn on the switch, yes, the button on the side, then hold the bottom of the treasure with your hand, remember not to touch the protrusion on the top."

"is that so?"

"Yes, that's it. Now you can press the silver button in the middle..."

Xin Yue blinked curiously and did as she was told.

When the white thumb pressed the silver button with a lightning symbol in the center——

“Crackle!”

In an instant, a blue-white arc of electricity burst out from between the two pincers on the top of the treasure, making the air crackle and emitting a burning smell.

The sudden electric arc startled Xin Yue, and her face turned pale and she almost dropped the stun gun.

That’s right, the gift that Lin Zhongtian gave to Xin Yue was the technological item in the first layer of the storage ring - a self-defense electric shock device!

This stun gun is no different from those on the market. It can instantly generate high-voltage pulses through a transformer to stun or cause shock to any living creature it comes into contact with. It can produce a strong electric shock of more than 40,000 volts.

At the same time, the working principle of high pressure and low flow means that it can only stun the enemy and will not cause any fatal damage...
