Chapter 32: The Old Man Teaches Art (I)
In the secret room under the swimming pool, 11 quietly watched the old man gulp down the spirits.
This is the third day that Madi has left the Eagle Country, and from the day Madi left for Sheila, 11 will bring wine to this unknown old man late every night to drink, and when he is finished, he will leave. The two of them rarely spoke, as if they were familiar with each other, but they were very strange.
Because of 11's large amount of stealing alcohol, the wine in the bar is constantly decreasing, and people often see many empty wine bottles in the trash can when they clean the next day. โ
The master's trust in 11 is by no means comparable to these subordinates, so the subordinates didn't say anything, but one person wanted to deliberately please the master, and secretly sued Ruoli, and Ruoli just laughed after hearing it.
11 I don't understand why I have to give wine to the old man every day, but I just subconsciously want to do it. It was as if the old man had given him a very special feeling, but he couldn't tell what it was like.
"Maybe it's because I look like a dragon countryman. In this regard, 11 is self-deprecating to comfort himself.
At this moment, 11 stood quietly to the side, watching the old man drink the last bottle of wine. It's just that there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
The old man put the bottle down, glanced at 11, and asked, "Something on your mind?"
11 nodded and asked, "Do you know Cold Night?"
"Cold night?" the old man shook his head after thinking for a moment, "I haven't heard of it." โ
"He's from the Dragon Kingdom, and the last time he attacked the manor......11 told him all about himself and Cold Night.
The old man just let out a faint "oh" when he heard this.
"Is he here to save you?"
The old man sneered and said, "I don't know, it may be the same purpose as your boss." โ
"Your own people catch your own people?"
The old man sneered: "What's not to do? If I hadn't been attacked by my own people, how could that fat pig catch me." And locking the pipa bone can prohibit the skill, which is only known to the martial arts practitioners of our Dragon Kingdom, if there is not a traitor, the fat pig would not know to lock my pipa bone with an iron hook. After a pause, the old man sighed heavily, and said in a somewhat sad tone: "No matter when, traitors will always survive." Why are there always some people who can't resist the temptation to betray their country and nation?"
Both of them were silent for a moment, and the old man suddenly said, "11, do you want to learn my skills?"
11 nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, I can teach you, but you have to go to the Dragon Kingdom to help me do one thing in the future. โ
11 shook his head and said, "I can't guarantee this." โ
"Why?"
"I belong to the 'devil' and I can't leave without a mission. โ
The old man frowned and said, "I can give you great power, and then you will be able to break away from the control of the organization." โ
11 thought about it, but shook his head.
"Why?"
11 shrugged his shoulders and said, "The 'devil' won't allow it." โ
The old man sneered and said, "At that time, you already had great strength, and you still need to be afraid of them?"
"No matter how strong a person is, he cannot compare with an army. โ
The old man thought for a moment and asked, "So you don't want to learn?"
"Yes, but I can't promise you anything. โ
The old man sneered: "There will be a reward if you pay, and it is impossible for you to get the strength of your body for nothing." โ
11 shook his head and said, "Then forget it." โ
The old man looked at 11 with interest and said, "If it were anyone, he would not hesitate to agree, even if it was just to deceive me." โ
11 said lightly: "I don't want to lie to you." โ
The old man smiled and said, "Okay then, I won't force you. Let's go. โ
11. After packing up the empty wine bottles, he left silently. When he returned to the hall, he began to think about the old man's words again.
It is undeniable that when the old man said that he wanted to teach him skills, he was indeed moved. But he knew that it was impossible for him to disobey the organization, just as it was impossible for a child to disobey his parents. Although the "devil" is not his parents, he grew up in the "devil" after all, and coupled with the "devil's" consistent brainwashing policy, his subconscious can't do anything to betray the organization.
Why can't he deceive the old man?11 He is not a gentleman, on the contrary, he is also very skilled in deceiving people. But he just didn't want to deceive the old man, it was an indescribable feeling.
In the dark hall, two bright lights flickered incessantly......
On the second day, 11 spent another day with Ruoli and Krdis as usual, and late at night, he came to the secret room with a few bottles of wine.
11And he put the jar in front of the old man, and said, He will come back to-morrow. โ
The old man didn't speak, just unscrewed the cap and drank happily. It wasn't until he drank the whole bottle of liquor in one go, he wiped his mouth and said, "What did I think about yesterday?"
11 shook his head and said, "I can't agree." โ
The old man seemed to know that he would say this, and calmly opened the second bottle of wine, and saw the bottom in one breath. After drinking, the old man said: "My real name is Lu Yang, and I am a descendant of the Dragon Kingdom Sword Sect, and some friends have given me the nickname 'drunkard'. Scold. โ
11 I didn't understand why he was telling him this, but he didn't interject, but just listened quietly.
Lu Yang continued: "The Dragon Kingdom is an ancient civilization with a long history, and it has paid attention to its own cultivation since ancient times, so it has derived things like the Dragon Kingdom martial arts. In fact, the real Dragon Kingdom martial arts have declined, and many martial arts have been lost. What is still circulating today is only the surface of the real Dragon Kingdom martial arts, less than one-ten-thousandth of the real martial arts. โ
Lu Yang sighed, as if he was sad about the decline of the Dragon Kingdom's martial arts, and after drinking a bottle of wine in one go, he asked, "Do you know what the extreme realm of martial arts is?"
11 shook his head.
Lu Yang smiled: "Actually, I don't know. I've been studying martial arts for more than 90 years now, and I'm almost 100 years old. In fact, practicing martial arts is not only for physical fitness, but also for breaking through one's own limits and reaching another level of realm. Just like me, I can live here for so many years without eating or drinking, this is a state that martial arts can achieve by breaking through its own limits. โ
11 Listening to it like a book from heaven, he knew that practicing martial arts could strengthen his body, but he had never heard that practicing martial arts could reach the point of not eating or drinking for several years, in his opinion, this was too unbelievable.
Lu Yang seemed to know what 11 was thinking, looked up at him, and said, "You don't have to be surprised, people like us are quite common in the ancient Dragon Kingdom. At that time, the Dragon Kingdom was an era of advocating martial arts, and even farmers who cultivated the land would use a few fists to embroider their legs. But now...... Alas. There aren't many people like us anymore, and most of them are hidden. โ
