Chapter 1 Righteousness
Three minutes ago, if someone told Zheng Haoran, there is light merit in this world. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zheng Haoran will definitely scoff at it, thinking that person is talking nonsense!
What kind of light skill, that's not something that only exists in martial arts novels, dare to lie to him, is it possible to treat him as a three-year-old child who doesn't understand bullshit, fooling around?
But now, looking at the ripples left on the calm lake-like water in front of him, Zheng Haoran believes that things like light gong not only exist in martial arts novels, but also in real life.
He doesn't believe in martial arts novels, but he believes in his own eyes. Just now, in front of his eyes, the short and fat guy who had been chasing all the way by himself actually lightly connected the dots on the surface of the river as wide as ten meters, and his body fell smoothly and steadily to the opposite bank.
What kind of kung fu is this? Although this is not the one reed crossing the river described in martial arts novels, it can be regarded as a light skill such as a dragonfly dotting water or swallow copying water three times. He doesn't know if it can be compared to crossing the river with a reed, but it is definitely shocking!
Zheng Haoran believed in his eyes, but let him fully believe that there was really light work in the world or not. Suspecting that he was dreaming, he reached out and pinched his thigh, causing pain. He also suspected that there seemed to be some mechanism under the water, such as a wooden stake that was only a few centimeters above the surface of the water beforehand, and the short and fat fellow, who seemed to have flown over the water, actually ran over with his feet on the stake.
So he went down the embankment, came to the surface of the water over which the man had leaped, and went into the water to look for it.
At this time, it was the flood season, and the rainy season had not yet arrived, but the water in the Qinglong River was not shallow, and it reached Zheng Haoran's chest. He followed the short, fat creature's leap forward for a few meters, but he didn't touch anything like a stake, but he didn't dare to touch it any further.
It was close to the middle of the river, and the water was up to the neck. He couldn't swim, and he was afraid that he would drown, so he had to return in a daze, sit on the embankment, and look at the route of the low and fat man in a daze.
The fat man is long gone, and the ripples are invisible.
Zheng Haoran said secretly: "What's going on?" Why was that fat man able to defy the earth's gravity and step on the water to reach the opposite shore? Is there really light work in the world? Since the fat man can do light work, why not become a magic master, or a high jump and long jump athlete, either of which can achieve fame and fortune, why do you want to rob it? ”
About ten minutes ago, Zheng Haoran was still wandering around the most lively pedestrian street in Qinglong County. Today is the first day of returning home from college, preparing to go to the big city to look for a job later, after a day of fainting sleep at home, he went to the pedestrian street to wake up his mind, and was walking when he suddenly heard an old voice shouting: "Robbed, catch him!" Before he could turn back, he was hit by a short, fat guy.
The guy bumped into someone and turned around and shouted fiercely: "Good dog doesn't get in the way!" ”
Zheng Haoran immediately realized that this Humpty Dumpty was the one who robbed him. He has always had a chivalrous spirit of "whoever has a tree is abundant, cut it twice, and shovel it when the road is uneven", not to mention that the man is fat and short-legged, like a big ball rolling forward, and he is a sportsman in the school, and it is effortless to catch that person, and immediately chase after him.
Although the man didn't run fast, he couldn't slip his hands, and there were a few times when Zheng Haoran had held down the man's shoulder and grabbed the man's arm, but he was always slipped by the oil and sweat on the man's body and couldn't catch it.
The two of you chase me and escape, Humpty Dumpty saw that Zheng Haoran was chasing in a hurry, took out a chopstick-length dagger from his arms, turned around and said viciously: "Boy, don't be nosy, so as not to splash your own blood!" ”
Although Zheng Haoran was worried that the fat man had a knife in his hand, he was not afraid, so he picked up a brick from the ground and continued to chase. In this way, from the bustling street all the way to the river, he thought that Humpty Dumpty had no way to escape, who would have expected Humpty Dumpty to fly across the river and escape.
Just as Zheng Haoran was looking at the river in a daze, a cough suddenly came from behind him. He looked back and saw that it was an old man. The old man was already in his last years, hunched over his waist, with a few strands of white beard. It is rare in the world to look like this, and what is even stranger is that in the dark night, the man is still wearing gold wire disc sunglasses.
There are street lamps on the embankment every 20 meters, which emit a dim light. Zheng Haoran muttered to himself: "This old man is nervous enough, he wears a pair of sunglasses at night, and he is not afraid of falling on his heels." ”
The old man suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Young man, didn't you catch the robber for me?" ”
As soon as Zheng Haoran heard the voice, he knew who the old man was, it was the one who shouted: "Robbed, catch him." The old voice of the master. He didn't feel a little regretful that he couldn't catch a short fat man because he was tall and big, and it wouldn't become a joke if it was passed out. While thinking about it, I don't know how many turns and alleys I have crossed after chasing the fat man, and I don't know how the old man followed. While explaining: "Chasing here, that guy doesn't know where to run? ”
The old man let out an "oh", glanced around, and said, "This place is empty, where can he go?" ”
There was nothing on either side of the river except a row of weeping willows. If you tell the old man that the short and fat man has light skills, he stepped on the water and ran to the other side of the bank, how could the old man believe it. But if he said that he was tall and didn't catch up with the fat man and let him run away, the old man couldn't believe it, maybe he would think that he had caught up with the fat man, and after taking the dirt, he had a black heart to eat black, let the fat man go, and take the dirt for himself, so he made up a nonsense to deceive people.
After Zheng Haoran thought about it, he still felt that he had to tell the truth, but he had a clear conscience, what the old man thought in his heart, how could he influence it. said: "You may not believe it, that guy will take it lightly, step on the water and jump to the other shore and slip away." After that, he stared at the old man's face, thinking that he would see the old man's disdainful smile, but he didn't expect the old man to ask: "Hey, it turns out that the fat man can do light work!" ”
Zheng Haoran immediately felt moved by being believed, and hurriedly said, "You...... Do you believe that there is light power in this world! ”
The old man said: "This world is not what you think, and the magical martial arts in the book are not all made up. I've lived a long time, and I've never seen anything, let alone the light skill of crossing the water, even a master who is a thousand times and ten thousand times more powerful than him has also seen it. ”
Zheng Haoran said: "What the hell is going on! How can a person have light work? It is said that he can do this stunt, and he should have already become a star in the limelight, why is there no information about him in books, on TV, or on the Internet. ”
The old man said: "There is information about this in books, on TV, and on the Internet, but they are hidden in the depths, and you don't look into it carefully." After a pause, he said, "Even if you find out, since you were a child, you believe in science and metaphysics, and you will not think that these are true." ”
Zheng Haoran said: "Old man, tell me quickly, where are these martial arts people?" Is it hidden between you and me, or famous mountains and rivers. ”
The old man smiled and said, "This is not in a hurry, you will understand in the future!" Now let me ask you, if you see the fat man who robbed me now, would you dare to ask him for what I was robbed? ”
Zheng Haoran did not hesitate and said, "Dare!" ”
The old man said: "Although you are taller than him, you are an ordinary person without martial arts. Although he is fat and short, he knows martial arts, and he has a dagger weapon in his hand, aren't you afraid that he will kill you? ”
Zheng Haoran hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid!" ”
The old man said, "Why! ”
Zheng Haoran straightened his chest and said: "My surname is Zheng Haoran, my father gave me this name in the hope that I will be righteous and heroic, hoe the strong and help the weak, and level the injustice in the world." If you are in danger and shrunk your head as a turtle, how can you still be worthy of the name Zheng Haoran. ”
The old man nodded, reached out and gently stroked the top of Zheng Haoran's head, and said, "I didn't misunderstand you. He also said: "Do you want to learn martial arts!" ”
Zheng Haoran tapped his head twice.
The old man took out a business card from his body, handed it to Zheng Haoran, and said, "Tomorrow, go to me according to the address of the business card." ”
Zheng Haoran stretched out his hand to take it, took his business card and went to the dim street lamp to take a look. An antique sword is printed in the middle of the front of the business card, with the word "Daxia" written on the left side of the sword and the word "Fang Tang" written on the right. There is no phone number, and there is no address. He flipped over the back of the business card and saw that there was a line of words written on it with a pen, No. 17 Fangjia Street.
