Chapter 507 - 243 Let Me Take a Look! (5.6K)

To be honest.

When someone is deep in thought and suddenly startled by another person appearing at their side, it can be quite frightening.

Especially when the other person is bald, with a shiny forehead gleaming brightly in the sunlight, it nearly scared Xu Yun into reaching for the nitroglycerin in his pocket.

"..."

However, remembering that the University of Cambridge has its share of eccentric thieves, and this person might even be a teaching assistant or a professor, Xu Yun forced himself to calm down.

He first took a look at the person’s appearance.

The Big Bald Head resembled Guo Da from later generations, with some golden hair on either side of his shiny forehead, and a forehead full of deep wrinkles.

He appeared to be in his forties but had an expression of deep bitterness and resentment.

He then placed a bookmark in the reading section of "1650-1830: Two Hundred Years of Scientific History Transition," closed the book, and asked the person:

"Sir, is there something you need?"

Seeing Xu Yun inquiring, a flash of sharp light appeared in the Big Bald Head’s eyes.

With curiosity, he asked:

"Student, are you the Eastern person who handed Sir Newton’s autograph letter to the school?"

Oh great, another fan of Little Niu.

Xu Yun nodded and said:

"That’s right, it’s me."

After saying that, he sighed silently in his heart.

If nothing unexpected happens.

The next thing would probably be the routine ’I’m ashamed to associate with you’ diss, right?

However, unexpectedly.

That Big Bald Head across did not roll his eyes like Jones Bod did before, but instead, he stepped forward even more curiously and asked:

"So are you really a descendant of Mr. Feiyu?"

Xu Yun raised his eyelids and glanced at him, not quite sure what the other person was up to, but he confirmed:

"That’s right, Mr. Feiyu is indeed my ancestor, a bona fide one."

"I’ve never been so interested!"

The Big Bald Head clapped his hands loudly, and his voice echoed slightly in the second floor of the empty library:

"Then what about the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect? You must know about Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect, right?"

Without waiting for Xu Yun to answer, he pulled out a chair.

Somewhat familiar, he sat beside Xu Yun and said enthusiastically:

"Legend has it that there are some immortals who can fly through the sky and escape the earth in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect. Can you tell me if this is true?"

Seeing the other person’s spittle almost spraying on his face, Xu Yun discreetly distanced himself and explained:

"Flying through the sky and escaping the earth is quite unlikely. It’s just that in terms of physical fitness, they might be slightly better than ordinary people, and their lifespans are generally longer..."

He had read in "1650-1830: Two Hundred Years of Scientific History Transition" where Hamilton mentioned it.

Due to Fat Fish’s significant contribution in this timeline, the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect’s influence naturally increased in this world.

Some Little Niu fans, or scientists seeking to pursue higher truths, were deeply interested in the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect.

Some even spent huge sums to travel to the East with the intention of exploring the truth.

The so-called cultivators Xu Yun once mentioned to Little Niu were magnified and further imagined.

But as the saying goes, do not speak intimately in an unfamiliar relationship. Xu Yun and the Big Bald Head were now just casual acquaintances, so he definitely couldn’t indulge in idle talk.

Therefore, from a cautious perspective.

He simply used the scenarios of some local Daoist traditions to describe it.

The local Daoist School was considered the authority on health preservation in later generations, and in this area, it indeed had a high reputation.

Represented by Daoist Zhang Zhishun and those true practitioners, even many skeptics and blind critics of traditional culture couldn’t find fault.

And upon hearing ’lifespans are generally longer,’ the light in the Big Bald Head’s eyes grew even brighter.

He gently licked his lower lip, adjusted his glasses, and said:

"So... your body is also very healthy?"

Then without waiting for Xu Yun’s answer, he couldn’t help but extend his hand:

"Student, may I take a look at your physique..."

Xu Yun:

"????"

As a man with typical inclinations, Xu Yun certainly wasn’t going to engage in anything inappropriate with another man.

As soon as the Big Bald Head made a move, Xu Yun stood up and employed the stepping tactic from the Lai Fu Sword Technique.

With a deep breath and a light touch, he easily countered the opponent’s left hand onto the table.

"Hiss..."

The Big Bald Head’s forehead instantly exuded a large amount of sweat, visibly showing a hint of pain on his face, but his eyes only grew more brilliant:

"Such a physique... with such strength, the East! East... ouch ouch ouch—"

Xu Yun: "...."

Is this guy a masochist?

But considering this is still the University of Cambridge’s library, Xu Yun merely restrained him for five or six seconds, estimating that it was just enough, then released him.

He took a step back.

Grabbing "1650-1830: Two Hundred Years of Scientific History Transition" from the table, he prepared to leave.

The Big Bald Head, seeing this, disregarded the pain in his left hand, stood up swiftly, and said:

"Student, please wait, I mean no harm!"

Xu Yun turned his head, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly:

"No harm? Then why did you mention wanting to check out my body?"

The Big Bald Head exhaled gently, gritting his teeth and rubbing his elbow, explained between gasps:

"You misunderstood; I was just momentarily curious, wanting to see if Eastern people have any special characteristics in their physique."

"You see, I’ve been conducting research on life evolution over the years, and what I’ve been missing is a standard Eastern sample..."

"Research on life evolution?"
