Chapter 30: The eldest disciple Liang Hao
After saying goodbye to Hu Xiangming and others.
Li Yue came to the city of Anxi County, found a small courtyard in a quiet location, and rented it as a temporary place to live for the next period of time.
When everything was settled, he came to a high-walled compound.
"White Crane Martial Arts Hall ......"
Li Yue looked up, and there were four large silver hook iron paintings on the plaque, with an elegant meaning.
"Drink! Ha......"
Behind the closed courtyard door, there was a faint sound of the apprentice's exhalation from the backyard practicing martial arts.
The door of the courtyard is closed, naturally to prevent people from stealing boxing.
Knock knock!
Li Yue stepped forward and grabbed the copper ring and knocked on the courtyard door.
After a while, the housekeeper with an old face opened the courtyard door to reveal his head, and saw that Li Yue was wearing a brocade dress and looked dignified, unlike ordinary people, he opened the door a little more, revealing his whole body, and asked politely.
"What's the matter with this son?"
"I want to learn martial arts, and I ask to see the Ding Pavilion Master. Li Yue replied.
The butler was about to answer.
"Uncle Wang, who is it?"
A dull, breathy voice came from behind the door.
"It's a son, who said he wanted to learn martial arts and wanted to see his master. β
Turning around, the butler opened the courtyard door completely.
A tall, muscular man, with a square face and a lion nose, and his eyes were focused, walked slowly with his hands in his hands, swept Li Yue's eyes, and asked in a dull voice.
"You want to learn martial arts?"
"Not bad. β
"Uncle Wang, go ahead, I'll entertain this person. β
"Yes. "The butler went.
"I am Liang Hao, the eldest disciple of the martial arts hall, and I want to learn martial arts and enter the courtyard, but it is not so easy to see the master. β
Throwing down a sentence, Liang Hao turned around and walked towards the courtyard, paused, and snorted coldly.
"If anyone can see Master, Master is afraid that he will be busy to death. β
Li Yue stepped forward to follow, frowning and asked.
"If the owner of the hall doesn't see it often, then who usually teaches boxing?"
"It's me!
I have been following Master for more than ten years, and I have been practicing boxing for more than ten years, and I am close to the completion of Heming Boxing.
Master Father, I will be responsible for teaching the new disciples boxing techniques!"
Liang Hao didn't reply.
"Only the martial arts disciples who can walk thirty moves under me can get the master's personal guidance. β
"Now I will take you to the account room, pay the money and receive the clothes, and you can come to learn boxing tomorrow. β
"Of course, if you regret it, the gate is there. β
At the beginning, Liang Hao only walked to the courtyard with his own conceited hands, and never looked back at Li Yue from beginning to end.
"The disciple teaches boxing, and it takes thirty moves to be instructed by the hall master?"
Li Yue frowned.
He didn't do it to learn boxing, the main purpose was to get in touch with Ding Jianyi, so that he could appear in the dream world.
If he can't see Ding Jianyi, what is he doing when he learns boxing.
Li Yue raised his head and looked at Liang Hao's tall back.
"This Liang Hao has practiced boxing for more than ten years, and has been recognized by Ding Jianyi, and his strength must be extraordinary.
Even if I use a knife, I may not be his opponent, let alone add a requirement that I can only use Crane Ming Fist with my bare hands.
If you follow the steps, even if you count the help of the dream world, you don't know how much time it will take to get in touch with Ding Jianyi. β
"I don't have that much time!"
He shook his head vigorously.
Passing by the middle of the courtyard, on the flat ground paved with blue bricks, a group of martial arts hall disciples wearing strong suits were sweating profusely and practicing boxing in unison.
"I want to see the Ding Pavilion Master. β
Li Yue withdrew his gaze from the martial arts hall disciple, and with a plan in his heart, he suddenly stopped and said again.
"Boy, didn't you hear what I said earlier?"
Liang Hao stopped suddenly, he turned half of his body suddenly, his face was gloomy, implying anger, and his body rose with a fierce momentum like a fierce beast, and said unceremoniously.
"I said itβMaster, not everyone can see it!"
Li Yue took a step back and looked into the courtyard to the side.
"Ordinary martial arts hall disciples, how much silver do you have to pay for learning boxing in a month?"
"Five taels. β
For this question, Liang Hao instinctively replied, and then asked sharply with a frown.
"What do you mean by that?"
Five taels of silver is not a small amount.
Many people don't make that much money in a month.
Excluding other expenses such as food and drink, there are very few ordinary people who can take out five taels of silver a month.
"Three hundred taels!"
Li Yue stretched out three fingers and said slowly.
"I'm willing to pay three hundred taels a month!"
Liang Hao's face changed when he heard this, and he was uncertain.
After a while, he turned around, as if suppressing his anger.
"Follow me. β
There are some things in the martial arts hall that he can decide as a big disciple.
There are some things that can't be done, and it involves such a large amount as three hundred taels a month, which is not something he can decide.
The front yard was where the disciples of the martial arts hall practiced martial arts, and Liang Hao led Li Yue to the inner courtyard.
In the lobby of the inner courtyard.
An old man with gray hair and strong spirits, sitting on a chair with a smile on his face, with a calm and extraordinary bearing, he held a cup of tea and slowly blew the foam on the tea.
Liang Hao stood beside him respectfully, bowed his head and told the matter in detail.
Li Yue sat down, with a cup of hot tea on the servant in his hand.
"What do you call this son?"
The old man was naturally Ding Jianyi, the owner of the White Crane Pavilion in the famous Zhenyi County, and he asked slowly.
"Under the surname Li Mingyue. β
Li Yue did not hide his name.
It's useless to hide his name, if the court about him is wanted in Anxi City, there will be a portrait along with it.
Even if he can change his name, he can't change his appearance.
"Li Gongzi, I heard from the eldest disciple of Lao Yu, if you want to learn boxing from Lao Yu, are you willing to hand over three hundred taels to the martial arts hall in January?"
Ding Jianyi took a sip of tea and said.
"Yes. β
Li Yue nodded.
"Actually, if you just entered the martial arts hall to learn boxing, and the effect will not be much different if you are taught by the old decay sect and the old decay this big disciple.
Why spend so much money? β
Ding Jianyi said lightly.
"It's not going to be much different, it's going to be different. β
Li Yue shook his head.
"For the sake of this difference, the junior believes that even if he gives sixty times more silver than other martial arts disciples, it is worth it. β
Although this is a bit flattering, it is really pleasant to listen to.
The old man can personally teach you the crane singing boxing.
Come back tomorrow, and a servant will lead you directly to the inner court. β
Ding Jian said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master Ding. β
Li Yue's face was overjoyed, he stood up, and clasped his fists.
"Go ahead. β
Ding Jianyi put down the teacup and waved his hand.
Liang Hao led Li Yue out of the inner courtyard and sent him all the way out of the martial arts hall.
"Senior Brother Liang, see you tomorrow. β
Li Yue maintained a polite smile on his face and stood at the door.
"Junior brother walks slowly. β
Liang Hao's face was expressionless, and his tone was stiff.
With a bang, the courtyard door was shut!
"Strange ......"
Li Yue turned around, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and he frowned.
Just now I learned that if I wanted to get Ding Jianyi's personal guidance on boxing, he had to go through thirty moves from Liang Hao's hands, and he had to use money to open the way.
Originally, he didn't have much hope for this trick.
After all, if Ding Jianyi is really as indifferent to fame and fortune as rumored, then gold and silver should not be able to impress him.
But it turned out to be a trick, and it was very easy.
Although Ding Jianyi opened his mouth to persuade him that when he first started to learn boxing, he and his eldest disciple would teach him, and the effect would not be much different, and there would be no need to spend so much money.
But there was obviously no refusal in the tone, just superficial polite words, in order to make it seem that he did not value gold and silver so much.
There is also the eldest disciple Liang Hao, who is gloomy and irritable, not at all like a disciple taught by a master who is kind-hearted and indifferent to fame and fortune.
