Chapter 1 An Apparently Ordinary Beginning - Time Travel

When Lan Feng got out of bed, he discovered that he was also wearing Western-style clothing, specifically of an ancient Western variety. It seems that to perform in a play, one must be fully equipped, even down to the attire.

... ... ''

Oh no! The building is about to collapse, hurry and escape!

Opening the courtyard gate, I observe the people passing by on the street, none of whom notice my presence. Are they actors? Could it be that I am so fortunate to have become Truman, and this is indeed "The Truman Show"?

He was surprised by the scene outside the yard; due to the lower terrain here, he could see the towering buildings outside

Damn, this cursed school, I pay you so much tuition, yet you provide me with such a terrible place to study, I despise you...

The younger brother went home to play, and not to cause trouble! The big fellow saw Lan Feng like this and left with a wave of his sleeve.

A courtyard, an old and modest courtyard, which of course was not enough to surprise Lan Feng. Such a small courtyard had a very simple setting, requiring little effort.

This story serves to remind students that they must not sleep during class, especially not in the corner

"What did you say?" the large man turned to Lan Feng and asked, not because he didn't hear what Lan Feng said, but because he couldn't understand it

Although it is for the purpose of sleep, it is also for a serious matter. Lan Feng has been practicing the Turtle Breathing Technique of Wudang since childhood. In order to better practice this skill, he decided to learn some hypnosis techniques to assist him.

What? You say that the Turtle Breathing Technique is only found in martial arts novels, but you are mistaken, and gravely so. In reality, martial arts do exist, though they are not as miraculous as depicted in martial arts novels, where a single palm can level a building and a single punch can create a pit

Then why is there Western-style furniture in front of me? How did I end up lying on this seemingly ancient bed, in such an old house? Shouldn't I be in the classroom?

I don't know where... etc.! Lan Feng sensed something was amiss; the words of the big guy were something he had never heard before. It is true that there are many things in the world he has never heard of, but strangely, he could understand what this big guy was saying

In modern times, due to wars and the impact of the movement to eliminate superstitions, Qigong gradually faded from the public eye. However, many families have passed it down from generation to generation, and the Lan Feng family is one such lineage, albeit one with few descendants. Moreover, the Turtle Breathing Technique is merely a common Qigong practice, which has been handed down through generations since Lan Feng's ancestors studied martial arts at Wudang.

"This is not good, Lan Feng is sleeping in the corner during class, and the recent explosion probably didn't wake him up!" a girl who noticed Lan Feng in class exclaimed

Indeed, we must find him and take him down! However, this building is truly the most dilapidated; the stairs are fewer than in other places. As if that weren't enough, there isn't even an emergency exit! Another familiar voice chimed in, indicating that he was still complaining about the struggle of squeezing through the stairs earlier

In fact, the appearance of Lan Feng in the past is quite similar to that of the present, being of above-average stature; one could say he is handsome, but just barely, as he is merely passable.

Forget it, let me ask someone first

After the incident, in front of the collapsed teaching building, the instructors began to account for their students and the books, to ensure that no one was overlooked. However, at this point, what difference does it make whether someone was overlooked or not

Thus, a chaos ensued. Those who ran quickly had already escaped to the open space outside, while those in the middle were still squeezing down the stairs, and those at the back were striving to push their way into the staircase

Maple Leaf

After a while, Lan Feng noticed something was amiss. With his master-level hypnosis skills, how could he not distinguish between sleeping and being awake? Clearly, he was in a state of wakefulness.

Why am I so foolish? I could have just gone out directly instead of looking for cameras here

The result is that the Turtle Breathing Technique has only reached a second-tier level, while hypnosis has already attained a top-tier status

Suddenly, Lan Feng saw a red light flash in his eyes, and then he fainted.

Is this blue sky also fake, along with the distant green mountains? They must all be illusions. I have never seen such a clear sky...

In fact, the school originally intended to build a new teaching building; however, for a commercialized university, it will not abandon the use of something until it is completely useless

No way, even plastic surgery is included, and it's done in a worse direction! Lan Feng looked at his reflection in the water; there was hardly any trace of his former self. His once handsome face had vanished, and now he looked like a ghost, far from acceptable. However, fortunately, it was still passable; otherwise, I would fight to the death with you bunch of bastards

When Lan Feng woke up, it was already evening, and the first thing he said upon waking was ... ...

To get back to the point, if these phenomena are not caused by hypnosis, how should they be explained? Could it be that this is a film shoot, and someone has brought me here to secretly film?

Among the most remarkable aspects of Chinese martial arts is Qigong. Only by learning Qigong can one truly claim to practice Chinese martial arts; otherwise, it is merely a display of superficial techniques, as experts would say.

This is an ordinary Monday, in a tranquil university campus, within an old teaching building, where students are listening to the lecturer's presentation

In the classroom, the instructor explains, students ask questions, everything is so ordinary and commonplace, just like any other day

Laozi has unexpectedly traveled through time

Where is the blue maple?

Indeed! I truly hope this building collapses, so I won't have to enter this damned... Ah! Before the words were finished, the old classroom building could not withstand the devastation of the recent explosion and fell with a crash

The incident was caused by a chemistry student, who, unbeknownst to anyone, found an unidentified substance in some corner of the laboratory and used it in an experiment, resulting in an accidental explosion. He also met his demise due to this explosion.

Lan Feng propped up his body, groggily opened his eyes, looked around at his surroundings, stared for a moment, then fell back down, muttering: "Why am I still dreaming? How strange! Wake up already!"

At last, the chaos has ended, and everyone is standing safely in the open space ahead. Although there are some injuries, fortunately, everyone is safe!

Everyone, quickly escape

Speaking of Lan Feng's hypnosis, although it is among the world's top-tier, it has remained largely unknown. He does not wish to gain fame in this area, as the reason for his study of hypnosis is quite amusing—it is solely for the purpose of sleeping

Perhaps there is such a family around you, or perhaps one of your friends is among them ... and *illustrated* books

Brother, stop cursing and let's escape quickly. Damn, this staircase is too small, there isn't even an emergency exit, damn the school leadership

"Hey, big guy, where is this place?" Lan Feng casually asked a large man, who appeared to be brawny yet simple-minded, thinking it would be easy to handle him.

Lan Feng subconsciously walked back to the courtyard, beginning to contemplate everything. As he passed by the water tank in the courtyard, he suddenly stopped and then stepped back to the side of the water tank.

It must be this way

The ancient buildings are all in a Western architectural style, and they are quite expansive, resembling a city. This is not something that can be built casually

Screams erupted from the chemistry laboratory downstairs, and then the people inside burst through the door, scrambling to escape the building

"Damn, which bastard did this? How could it explode?" The sound just rang out again.

Lan Feng, a sophomore majoring in psychology, has a well-known flaw: he loves to sleep. Once he falls asleep, no amount of calling can wake him. Someone once joked that even if the entire building collapsed, he would not wake up.

A multitude of question marks appeared in Lan Feng's mind. Could it be that I have fallen under someone's hypnosis? Don't joke around; there is no one in the entire school who could perform such a thing on me. Not to mention the school, even if you searched all of China or the entire world, you would find only a few. And those few would not come here for no reason; they are all national treasures of their respective countries.

Lan Feng fell into deep thought, needing to come to terms with this matter

I don't know which race you are speaking, use the common language of the human race

Lan Feng walked around the room, searching for any hidden cameras, but he could not find any. Just as he was feeling troubled, he suddenly noticed the door in front of him

What if that person deceives you? Damn, without even asking who I am, I would hypnotize him; he would have to honestly reveal everything, even when he weans off.

Raven's mouth

However, just as the class was about to end, an unexpected event occurred

If building a city like this to steal is the case, then that would be a bit too dedicated, wouldn't it? I'm not Truman, is this really necessary?

Due to the suddenness of the situation, he was somewhat taken aback, standing there in a daze, while the others were solely focused on escaping and did not pay him any attention

Ah!

Every captivating and engaging story typically begins in a very ordinary manner, and this story is no exception

During roll call, the psychology instructor noticed that a newly enrolled student was missing, and this issue has become serious

This statement has now become a fact; Lan Feng is currently among the ruins, becoming the only individual affected by this explosion at the school. In his memory, a brand new teaching building has been erected on that pile of rubble

The attack power is not strong, but the ability to hold one's breath and feign death is exceptional. Moreover, it can be considered a form of qigong, which is absolutely effective for strengthening the body. If Lan Feng were to engage in a fight, he could easily handle a dozen ordinary people.

Upon thinking of this, Lan Feng immediately opened the door in front of him, and then a scene that left him dumbfounded appeared before his eyes

I asked, "What place is this?" Lan Feng inquired again

Everyone in the entire teaching building, whether students or instructors, heard a loud explosion and simultaneously felt a strong tremor, causing the old teaching building to sway
