“Oh, okay.” Goudan had always listened to Lin Yi-he’d done whatever Lin Yi said, ever since he was young.
The two walked back to Starwest village with their arms around each other’s shoulders. Lin Yi asked curiously,”Er goudan, I noticed that you’ve gotten a lot stronger. Who did you learn this from?”
It wasn’t a lie-goudan wasn’t a practitioner, but he could tell from his fight with sun Baixu that he wasn’t just using brute force. Every punch he threw had a sense of skill, and the rare thing was that he didn’t just stick to one move-it was from his heart.
To be more precise, goudan wasn’t using a fist technique, but a fist intent-a fist intent that could destroy everything.
“Your grandfather.” Goudan scratched his head and smiled.
“Really? Why is the old man in such a leisurely mood?” Lin Yi blinked.
From what he remembered, old Lin rarely took the initiative to teach people, especially someone like goudan who didn’t look like he had the potential to be a good disciple. He wouldn’t do something like this-and on a deeper level, it was a blessing for goudan to be able to live a peaceful life in the mountains, and he didn’t want to change his life path. Being ordinary was a blessing.
“He didn’t want to teach me at first, but I don’t know why I’ve been getting stronger and stronger over the years. I don’t seem to be able to control it and often break things. Your grandfather couldn’t stand it, so he taught me a way to control my strength.” Goudan grinned.
“What is it?” Lin Yi couldn’t help but ask.
“Boxing. A thousand punches a day.” Goudan said.
“What kind of stupid idea is this? There’s no technical content at all. This old man is too perfunctory, right?” Lin Yi didn’t know what to say-if he didn’t want to teach him, then he’d teach him properly. Old Lin was just trying to tire the kid out …
“But it’s very useful. At first, he asked me to hit the stone every day. He asked me to use all my strength and only break a little bit of the stone. But I always accidentally broke the stone into pieces. It took me a whole year to barely do it.” Goudan explained.
“What happened after that?” Lin Yi nodded-this sounded interesting.
“After that, I changed it to hitting trees. I still asked for only a little bit of it to be broken. Like this, I hit trees for another year.” Goudan said honestly.
“What happened after that?” Lin Yi continued to ask, interested.
“After that, it became drawing water. I can’t make any splashes or ripples even if I use all my strength. I can’t do that even now.” Goudan scratched his head.
Lin Yi was shocked at all of this-he patted goudan’s shoulder,”If you can do this, you’ll be an unparalleled fist Grandmaster. I’ve only just realized that you’re actually a genius!”
The way old Lin taught goudan seemed perfunctory, but the meaning behind it was deep-from hitting rocks to hitting trees to drawing water, every change meant that goudan’s grasp and understanding of strength had improved-a full-force strike that couldn’t make ripples or splashes in the water was something that even Lin Yi couldn’t do right now!
If er goudan could do this, it would mean that his control of fist force had reached an unprecedented level, and he could be called a master of fist techniques.
He’d never thought that goudan was that talented, be it in terms of potential or comprehension-he was below average even among normal people, and Lin Yi didn’t think that he’d be able to get this much out of it.
But then again, old Lin’s methods only worked on pure and innocent people like goudan-if it was Lin Yi, he wouldn’t even be able to punch a thousand times a day, and with all the distracting thoughts in his head, he’d find it hard to fully control and experience the strength of his fists.
Lin Yi was a very smart person, but he might not be able to use goudan’s stupid methods to train. After all, he wasn’t using his brain, but his body to experience and control everything. Being smart wasn’t his strength at this point, it was his weakness.
“I’m not a genius. I’m stupid. Your grandfather said that he could easily do these things in three months. I’ve been practicing for three or four years and I still haven’t seen it.” Goudan said, ashamed of himself.
“Listen to his bragging.” Lin Yi didn’t believe it at all-goudan’s achievement was already impressive enough, and old Lin did it in three months? He must have drunk too much …
“Oh right, Lin Yi bro, why are you back this time? Didn’t he say he was going to some Sky Class Island? Was Sky Class Island Fun? Are you overseas?” Goudan asked impatiently.
“Don’t rush, I’ll tell you slowly. Sky Class Island isn’t outside of the country, it’s a practitioner’s realm that’s isolated from our world, and the practitioners there are all very strong …” Lin Yi patiently explained everything to goudan, telling him everything, whether it was a secret or not. He never hid anything from this little brother of his.
The two walked all the way back to the village, and Lin Yi didn’t even finish explaining what happened in the North Island. He regretted it a little-wasn’t he being a little too detailed? How long would it take for him to finish telling all of this?
But after thinking about it, the ancient Alliance was settled, and Lin Yi didn’t have anything urgent to do for now. He’d planned on staying a few more days in the village since he had nothing to do anyway, and he’d just treat it as telling goudan a story.
For the next three days, Lin Yi was with goudan, and of course, he ate with old Lin and aunt Qing. He tried everything, but he couldn’t get anything from the old man. He had to sigh-the old man’s skill in snatching food from others was really off the charts!
The only reward was that Lin Yi finally told him everything about the Sky Class island after three days and three nights. Even so, goudan couldn’t get enough of it, and he had an excited expression on his face as if he wanted to die with Lin Yi. He’d always wanted to go out to the outside world, but he couldn’t go too far away from the West Star Mountain village because of the Gu poison, and he could only fantasize about the Sky Class Island.
Three days later, Lin Yi decided to leave the village. After all, he still had many things to do, and it was already a luxury for him to be able to come back for three days to see old Lin and ER goudan. The most gratifying thing was that he didn’t have to fight with old Lin for food for the last farewell dinner, since it was at er goudan’s house. (To be continued.) ”
