"Shhhhh Before Xiao Qiang finished speaking, Yang Xue immediately stretched out her hand nervously to make a boo gesture, and looked around a few times before whispering, "Mr. Xiao, I also hope that you can keep the matter of me setting up a night stall in Tianming City secret, my father doesn't know yet, he will definitely not agree if he knows." I lied to him that I went to night school in Tianming City before he agreed to let me go, don't say it, please. ”

Xiao Qiang nodded in understanding, it seems that Yang Xue went out to set up a night stall to hide from her father, but also, whose parents would be willing to show up for their children for a living? What's more, she is also the daughter of the head.

"Xiao Qiang, do you really want to come to the Qingfeng Sect to learn martial arts?" Yang Xue said with a look of disbelief, "Are you sure?" ”

"Originally, I was really hesitant, but Yang Xue is here, then I have confidence." Xiao Qiang said with a smile, "I have seen your skills, your Qingfeng Sect's kung fu must be very powerful, I am willing to join the Qingfeng Sect and follow your father to learn martial arts." ”

"That's great, I'm sure my father will be glad to know this, you come with me, and I'll take you to my father." Yang Xue nodded happily, pulled Xiao Qiang and walked towards the gate of the Qingfeng Sect.

Xiao Qiang felt the softness and smoothness of the little white hand that Yang Xue held his arm, and walked into the Qingfeng Sect with her. In fact, to be honest, the pattern of this sect is very large, and all kinds of facilities are readily available, whether it is a training ground or a courtyard pavilion, but the only problem is that they are too old, maybe it is a problem of disrepair, maybe it is not enough maintenance, anyway, there is no vitality in the sect, but it always gives people a sense of dead silence at dusk.

The two walked along the gate through the long corridor by the pond, and Xiao Qiang, who was far away, saw the spacious martial arts training ground paved with cyan marble not far away. In the martial arts training ground, there were more than a dozen black shadows gathered in one place, and it seemed that they should all be disciples of this Qingfeng Sect.

"Xiao Qiang, my father is instructing the senior brothers to practice martial arts in the front training ground, have you seen it, the one wearing the gray robe is my father." Yang Xue stretched out her hand with a look of admiration and pointed to the crowd in the martial arts training ground in the distance and said, "My father is very strict with the requirements for accepting apprentices, although you want to come to the Qingfeng Sect to learn martial arts, but in the end, my father agrees or not, it depends on whether you have that qualification." ”

"What?" Xiao Qiang shook his head and said with a smile, "Your sect is so poor, and you are still so picky?" ”

"My father said that it is better to have a shortage than to overuse, and it is good for them that he does not accept apprentices who do not have the talent for martial arts." Yang Xue retorted seriously, "My dad is not like other martial arts halls, whether it is a good seedling or not, he collects it indiscriminately, just to make money, he doesn't talk about martial arts or conscience." ”

Xiao Qiang pouted, in fact, Yang Xue and her father did the right thing, it is almost impossible for people who do not have the talent to practice martial arts to learn a good kung fu, it is better to give up as soon as possible, so as not to mislead people's children. It's just that from the perspective of the development of the sect, it will naturally be more difficult to recruit apprentices, and the sect will naturally be poorer.

Now is not ancient times, and the martial arts sect has no other source of income except for the source of income of accepting apprentices and paying tuition. In ancient times, perhaps the sect could also make money by walking darts and guards, and relying on apprentices to walk the rivers and lakes, but now these methods have long been out of the way.

After the two approached the martial arts training ground, Xiao Qiang found that none of the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect were practicing martial arts, everyone gathered together and didn't know what they were discussing, and their faces seemed to be very ugly. Especially Yang Xue's father, Tie Qing sat on the old rattan chair with a teapot pinching his face, and he seemed to be on the verge of going berserk.

Seeing that this atmosphere was not quite right, Yang Xue stepped forward with a strange look on her face, and said in a voice to her father, "Dad? What's wrong with everyone? What are you doing here if you don't practice martial arts? ”

"Xiaoxue, didn't I let you go to the door as a hostess? What are you running back for no reason? Seeing his daughter come to the martial arts training ground, the head of the Qingfeng faction suddenly pulled down his face, frowned and said sternly, "Hurry up and give me back!" ”

"Dad, I didn't mean to come......" Yang Xue pursed her lips a little aggrieved, pointed to Xiao Qiang next to her, and said, "It's someone who wants to come to worship you as a teacher, so I accompanied him over." ”

Almost as soon as Yang Xue spoke, all the eyes of everyone in this martial arts training ground fell on Xiao Qiang.

"Ahem...... Xiao Qiang is usually low-key, and he is really a little uncomfortable with this feeling when he suddenly becomes the focus of attention, and he reluctantly smiled after coughing twice awkwardly, "Hello Master Yang, my name is Xiao Qiang, I think the Qingfeng faction's kung fu is good, so I want to learn martial arts from you, I don't know if I have this honor?" ”

"What ???" As soon as Xiao Qiang's words came out, everyone who reacted immediately was in an uproar. Each of them had an incredible look of shock on their faces, as if there were still people from the Qingfeng Sect who were apprentices, and it was the sun coming out of the west!

"This friend, I don't know who introduced you, but I advise you to leave here as soon as possible, you still want to come to learn art? Hehe, it won't be long before the Qingfeng faction will have no place to live, what are you still messing around......"

A sneering voice suddenly came from the crowd, and the head of Yang on the side was suddenly full of anger, and the man with a Chinese character face in his thirties standing next to him also turned his head and glared at the person who spoke out with an angry face, "Zhang Xuan, what nonsense are you talking about!" You have to go through the sect and not stop you, but don't deliberately talk nonsense here! ”

"I'm talking gibberish? Senior brother, don't you look at what this Qingfeng Sect has become? Is this kind of sect still worth guarding with all our hearts? Since the master was injured back then, the sect has plummeted, which is an indisputable fact! What's the use of trying to maintain it, even if you want to? The Qingfeng faction that owes debts does not even belong to this last acre and three points of land, what else do we use to guard this sect, and what do we use to carry forward the sect! Senior brothers, please wake up! Follow me and join other sects, maybe you can make a comeback, it's better than staying here and waiting for death! ”

In the crowd, there was a sharp-beaked monkey with a thin figure shouting loudly, which made many people in the martial arts training ground look confused and painful in their eyes. Xiao Qiang was a little stunned at this time, what is the situation? It seems that the Qingfeng faction he knows is far more than just downfall, and even owes a lot of debts, and even wants to sell the real estate in this valley and become nothing?

I'll go, don't you want to be so miserable! This Qingfeng faction is really the first cup of martial arts in history!

Xiao Qiang felt that he was really unlucky, how could he put up this for no reason, at first he heard what the Empty Xuan Daoist said, and thought that the Qingfeng faction was the kind of mysterious martial arts sect, with many masters in it, full of martial arts style. But what do you see now? Looking at the yellow-skinned sect disciples in front of him, and looking at the dilapidated houses and facilities around him, he couldn't help but pat his forehead with a headache, this was really too far from the Qingfeng sect he imagined......
