Wang Xuan comforted him: "Those men in black were not targeting you, they were on guard against me."
"Ah, what have you done that has angered God and the people? Could it be that you did something to Zhao Qinghan in the past?" Qin Cheng's associations were quite rich.
"What are you thinking about? I just thought those guys were pretty strong, so I wanted to see if they were practicing the old techniques or if they were taking another path of rising stars."
Qin Cheng's spirits suddenly lifted: "Great, Old Wang, look at how calm and composed you are, without saying anything, you figured out the person's background, how is it?"
Wang Xuan immediately corrected him: "Change your address!"
Qin Cheng just laughed.
Wang Xuan pondered and said, "I think it is still the old way, but the gestures, instinctive reactions, etc. are not pure enough. It seems to be combined with other methods."
Then he added: "Also, Zhao Qinghan is not as weak as you think. You are far from being her opponent."
"No way, has she mastered the old technique to a certain level?" Qin Cheng suddenly felt a little numb, and murmured: "Among the group of people just now, am I the weakest?"
At this time, the gate of the courtyard opened and Professor Lin appeared.
"I just sent Qinghan away when I heard voices coming from outside the courtyard. It turned out to be you."
Professor Lin has gray hair, looks to be in his sixties, and is a bit overweight.
He was a master of the old arts, but he had been seriously injured and his body had not recovered very well, so he could no longer fight.
Since then, he has concentrated on the theoretical research of ancient techniques, textual research, etc. Combined with his previous practical experience, he is well-known in the exploration of ancient techniques.
Wang Xuan stepped forward and said, "Professor Lin, I have been wanting to visit you these days, but I was afraid of causing you trouble, so I put it off until now."
"You are so polite!" The old man asked them to go into the yard to talk, and shook his head: "I really can't help you. I was rejected."
After hearing this, Wang Xuan's heart suddenly warmed up. He understood what was going on and was very grateful that Professor Lin had gone to find someone at the expense of his reputation. However, the investor acted in a tough manner and did not give anyone any face.
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Wang Xuan said seriously. He didn't want to see Professor Lin being rejected when he asked for help, and he felt very sorry.
Professor Lin waved his hand and didn't care about it.
The yard is not big and is planted with some flowers and plants. There is a fish pond on the right side with water lilies floating on the water and koi carps swimming around with their tails wagging, adding a lot of vitality to the yard.
The lighting in the living room is very soft. There is a photo album on the coffee table, which looks a bit old and has a sense of age.
The page the album opened to was of a woman in her prime, with a rare beauty.
"Professor Lin, who is this? So beautiful." Qin Cheng asked.
"She was a female painter who was also a good singer. She was popular for a long time and people of our generation liked her very much," Professor Lin said.
Wang Xuan looked at it carefully and found that the corners of the photo were worn and it felt like it was several decades old, but Professor Lin had kept it all the time.
Qin Cheng naturally noticed it, and because they were very familiar with each other, he dared to joke.
"You are so loyal. You have loved someone for decades without changing."
Professor Lin nodded: "Yes, I liked her when I was a senior in high school. Now that I am in high school, I still like her."
Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng were stunned and speechless.
"What are your plans next?" Professor Lin asked Wang Xuan.
Wang Xuan told the truth and decided to go to work first, but he also wanted to continue on the path of the old technique.
"We are going to Xinxing!" said Professor Lin.
Then he looked down at the photo album and thought for a moment.
Wang Xuan quickly said, "Professor Lin, you don't have to go find someone for me anymore."
Professor Lin raised his head and asked Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng, "Do you think that immortals ever existed?"
Wang Xuan keenly noticed that Professor Lin was not looking down at the photo of the woman just now, but at the one next to it.
It was a yellowed old photo with a sense of age. The light was bad so it was blurry, but you could roughly see that there was a pile of bamboo slips on a stone table underground.
Such bamboo slips are often found in large tombs from the pre-Qin period, which immediately gave Wang Xuan a lot of associations.
Before Wang Xuan and Qin Cheng could answer, Professor Lin spoke again: "What do you think Nova discovered?"
