I survive in the weird Liaozhai

I'm really speechless. So as for traveling around the world, well, just go to sleep. All kinds of things can happen in dreams.

Ever since he knew that this world might be the world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, he initially spent some time in fear.

But later I realized that instead of complaining about the world, it is better to change myself.

So he decided to practice Taoism, or at worst practice martial arts. In any case he had to have some ability to protect himself.

Gu Nian'an had heard Taoist Master Qi Yuan say before that Qingyang Temple seemed to have a history of hundreds of years. Just think about it, in a world where demons and ghosts are rampant, how could a force that has been passed down for hundreds of years be a simple thing?

There must be some tricks up his sleeve. So he decided to ask Taoist Qi Yuan indirectly.

"Master, does our Qingyang Temple have any secret manuals on cultivating immortals?"

Taoist Qi Yuan: "Ah!... What the hell is this? A secret book on cultivating immortality?"

The old Taoist looked at his disciple in silence.

He also wanted that thing. If Qingyang Temple had that thing, would it still be sitting in this remote mountain valley eating dirt?

"Master, what if we encounter a demon?"

Master Qi Yuan, I also want to know what to do.

“Just adapt to the situation”

Taoist Qi Yuan said something casually and said no more, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

He knew that there were ghosts in this world, but it was still difficult to encounter anything in such a big world.

To adapt to circumstances means to do whatever is necessary.

"What if I can't escape?"

Gu Nian'an asked naively

What the hell is running away? Did he ever say he was running away?

"It's about adapting to circumstances, adapting to circumstances", okay.

"Master, do you have any martial arts secrets?"

It was probably impossible to cultivate immortality, so he decided to practice martial arts instead. He remembered that Zuo Qianhu in the movie “A Chinese Ghost Story” in his previous life had always been able to do it.

Qi Yuan said, "This one doesn't have any...~~, wait, this one might have some..."

Nian'an, please wait a moment, let me think about where it is. "

Taoist Qi Yuan paced back and forth with his brows almost wrinkled into the shape of a "川" character. After a moment, he suddenly clapped his hands, as if he remembered something. Then he quickly walked towards the woodshed.

Gu Nian'an followed the old Taoist into the woodshed, and after searching for a while, he found a lacquered wooden box in the firewood pile.

The two of them worked together and took a lot of effort to pull it out from the corner of the woodshed.

The box was not locked, but the buckle was badly rusted.

When I opened the box, I saw that the things inside were quite messy, including a few sets of clothes, two pairs of old shoes, some yellow talismans that were of no use, and two old books with yellowed covers.

Gu Nian stood quietly beside the old Taoist priest, watching him squatting and searching in the wooden box, but he always felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and the old Taoist priest seemed a little lonely.

"Master, what are these?"

Gu Nian'an moved and squatted beside the old Taoist priest and asked casually. He was a little curious about what was in the box.

Hearing his disciple's question, Taoist Qi Yuan looked even more lonely.

"Alas! These are your uncle's things. They are quite old."

"Uncle Master???"

"Master, I haven't heard you say that. Is it your fellow apprentice?"

"Yes, he is my junior brother, he has been gone for some years."

"Oh, Master, please accept my condolences. Seeing you like this, my uncle will not be able to leave peacefully either."

"Yeah, it's all in the past..."

Alas, the old Taoist came to his senses, turned around and stared at the little kid beside him with a look of surprise.

God damn my condolences, God damn peace.

"Nian'an, your uncle is not dead yet, he just went out to explore the world in his early years." Taoist Qi Yuan said in a gloomy tone.

...~Gu Nian'an

…~Gu Nian’an.

Can you blame him?

The old Taoist's words are ambiguous. Just go out and explore the world. Why do you have to say, "Your uncle has been gone for many years?" This is something everyone would think about.

Gu Nian'an stared at Taoist Qi Yuan, tilted his head, and blinked his cute big eyes, with an innocent look on his face.

As for embarrassment, ha! It doesn't exist. He has been working hard in society for many years in his previous life, and he has learned everything. He is very thick-skinned.

Taoist Qi Yuan felt somewhat helpless. He reached out and touched his disciple's little head lovingly, then handed him two old books.

Gu Nian'an quickly took the book, as if he had found a treasure. He thanked him and ran to the side room with the secret book in his arms. He planned to study it first.

Martial arts secrets. Which young man doesn’t have a dream of becoming a martial arts hero?

Sitting at the table, Gu Nian'an rubbed his hands, then carefully opened the secret book.

The book has some damage at the corners but the rest is intact and the handwriting is clear so it is not a problem to read.

Judging from the covers of the two secret books, they should be about sword techniques and boxing techniques. One of the thicker books has "Ziwu Sword Gang" written on its cover, and the other one is "Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist".

After thinking for a moment, Gu Nian'an first picked up the "Ziwu Sword Gang", as to why.

Ha! I can only say that those who understand will understand that being strong or not is a temporary thing, being handsome or not is a lifelong thing, and he can play with a sword.

He opened the secret book and read for a while, and then, Gu Nian'an's whole face was a little distorted.

"Uncle Master, are you serious?!?"

The name "Ziwu Jiangang" sounds high-end and classy, ​​but in the end, it turned out to be a pornographic book, and a high-end one with illustrations at that.

Taking a deep breath and calming down, Gu Nian'an had no choice but to continue flipping through the book, once, twice, and three times, until he finished the whole book.

well! ! !

I am really speechless. I have confirmed that my uncle-master is not a serious Taoist priest.

With a heavy heart, Gu Nian'an picked up another "secret book" on the table with trembling hands.

At the same time, he prayed silently in his heart, please, Master, be a little more reliable. If this was another pornographic book, he would have died on the spot.

Fortunately, prayer may be a useful "true" martial arts secret of "Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist".

It took several hours to finish reading the martial arts secrets, but the light in Gu Nian'an's eyes also disappeared.

Who am I? Where am I? Where am I going?

He recognized all the words in this martial arts secret book, but when he put them together, he could not understand them.

Ah! What the hell is this?

For example, "The Qi flow penetrates the three gates. The Dantian goes straight up to the top of Niwan, and descends to Zhongyuan through the Chonglou."

Who can tell him what the “three gates” are, which part of the body is the “Niwanding”, and what the hell is the “Zhongyuan”.

This damn thing is for people to practice. In his previous life, he was just a science and engineering nerd and knew nothing about the human meridians.

That's not right. This thing, this thing, even if you bring a top student from the medical department, he will be confused.

I continued studying for most of the night.

Gu Nian'an???

Early the next morning, he went to find Taoist Qi Yuan with a pair of panda eyes. There was no way he could handle this thing.

"Master, do you know martial arts? Can you teach me?"

Gu Nian'an opened her big cute eyes and stared at Taoist Qi Yuan without blinking.

Qi Yuan Taoist...,

Taoist Qi Yuan…

He touched his nose awkwardly.

"Which Nian'an? How about I teach you Feng Shui, Yixue, fortune telling and face reading? I know a little about these."

How about it? Gu Nian'anjue is not very good. He knows what this world is like.

He has learned his master's skills, so when he encounters a demon or ghost, can he run up to them and read their palms?

If I learn martial arts... ?

At least he can run faster than his teammates.

At the gate of the main hall of the Taoist temple, two Taoist priests, one old and one young, stared at each other.

After a moment, Gu Nian'an carefully took out the "real" martial arts secret book "Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist" from his arms and placed it in front of the old Taoist.

"How about Master, let's study it together and see if we can figure it out."

Taoist Qi Yuan was helpless and had to take the secret book, but at the same time he warned the little guy in front of him.

"Nian'an, although I don't know martial arts, I know that you can't practice this blindly. It can cost lives. Why don't you just forget it?"

It is impossible to calculate it, practicing martial arts is a must.

"Master, we are just doing some research. I dare not mess around before we understand everything. Master, don't worry. I know what I am doing."

So the two outsiders began the long and painful journey of martial arts research.

To be honest, Gu Nian'an had never worked so hard in the college entrance examination in his previous life. After more than three months of research, the new version of "Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist" was officially released.

It is almost three times thicker than the original version, with the entire text in vernacular and annotations on meridians.

When Gu Nian'an got the new version of "Tiger Demon Bone Refining Fist", he was almost moved to tears.

Finally, the first step of the journey to the other world of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio has been successfully completed. The next step is to practice martial arts, practice martial arts like crazy.
