Bab 546: Ice and Snow Have Never Been Smart

(TN: This title is a play on the Chinese idiom 冰雪聪明, which literally translates  to 'intelligence like ice and snow'. Ice and snow are regarded as very pure and beautiful substances, so a person that has an intelligence like ice and snow is an extremely intelligent person.)

This Daoist surnamed Wu was not the least bit famous. In his entire life, he had only written three books, one of which was this illustrated collection of arrays. At the very beginning, Chen Changsheng had only casually glanced through this book, not holding much hope, but the more he read, the more he felt that something was wrong—the arrays that this Daoist surnamed Wu had recorded in this illustrated collection were all very simple, even somewhat clumsy. To those who had succeeded in cultivating the Dao, they weren't even worth a sneer, but in a few of this book's pages, he faintly sensed traces of the Boiling Stone Forest Array.
