Chapter 254: Burning Passionately or Rotting Quietly
In the courtyard, three teenagers knelt in front of an old man. The daylight www.biquge.info is clear, the courtyard is elegant, silent, only the wind passes through the bamboo, rustling.
Huo Jing's face was a little uneasy, Huo Wolf's eyebrows were slightly locked into the word "Chuan", and there were many emotions hidden in his sharp and cold eyes.
Huo Zongtang put his hands flat on his knees, with a calm and breezy expression on his face.
Huo Yuanjia's fingers tapped lightly on the armrest of the mahogany chair, one at a time, very rhythmic.
"The three of you are all excellent martial arts wizards, with a solid foundation in martial arts, extraordinary roots, and extremely high enlightenment talents. It can be said that each of them is qualified enough to be my Huo Yuanjia's closed disciple. It's just a pity that I'm old and have limited energy, and it's already the limit of the old man to take an extra apprentice. So in the end, there is only one person left today. But don't mind the other two who didn't make the cut. You can choose one of Zhensheng, Dongge, and Chen Zhen as your teacher. ”
"The old man taught these three apprentices, which is the proudest thing in his life. The three of them have completely inherited the mantle of the old man, and each has their own unique understanding of martial arts. And most importantly, the three of them are younger than the old man, and they have more time and energy to guide you to cultivate. If you choose them as teachers, you may not be worse than being an old man's apprentice. ”
Speaking of this, Huo Yuanjia's lightly tapping fingers suddenly stopped, and his gaze slowly swept over the faces of the three of them.
"Before the old man makes a final decision, I want you to use one last sentence to show your intentions."
His gaze stopped at Huo Jing. Huo Jing looked at Huo Yuanjia, her chest rose and fell rapidly, showing the excitement and nervousness in her heart.
She blushed, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "Master Zu, these **** have done their best, if I can become Master Zu's closed disciple, I have no regrets in this life!" ”
Huo Yuanjia laughed. "Okay, no regrets!"
His gaze shifted to Huo Wolf.
The sunlight fell on the wolf head pattern on the side of Huo Wolf's cyan scalp, and the wolf head with an angry mouth was extremely fierce at this time.
Huo Wolf slowly raised his head, his eyes coldly meeting Huo Yuanjia's.
"I just want to say one thing. Today, you will either take me as an apprentice or kill me now. ”
Huo Jing and Huo Zongtang were like being struck by lightning, and their eyes widened at the same time, looking at Huo Wolf in horror!
This, how could this guy say such a thing to Huo Yuanjia! To put it nicely is rude, to put it badly, this is simply a naked provocation in person!
Does he know who he's talking to?
But Huo Yuanjia looked at Huo Wolf without a trace of surprise. He just sighed slowly and said, "Are you a determination or a threat?" ”
Huo Wolf stubbornly pursed the corners of his mouth and did not answer.
Huo Zongtang looked at Huo Wolf who was not afraid of his face, and then looked at Huo Yuanjia, and his intuition told him that the emotions between the two were very delicate, and behind this, there might be some unknown story!
Huo Yuanjia looked at Huo Wolf with a hint of pity in his eyes. "You have come for revenge, but do you know that hatred can bring both strength and pain?"
Huo Zongtang and Huo Jing glanced at each other.
Huo Wolf came this time to take revenge? Where does his hatred come from, and who are his enemies? Could it be that only by worshipping under Huo Yuanjia's door can he realize his long-cherished wish of revenge?
"Hatred is painful, but it's sharper. I'm a wolf, and hatred makes me stronger, so I have to live behind it. If this is my fate, then I am willing to accept my fate. ”
Huo Yuanjia glanced at him deeply, and his gaze fell on Huo Zongtang. "What about you?"
Huo Zongtang knelt down and saluted Huo Yuanjia and said, "My ...... Life is not good, but I don't believe in fate. If the shadow behind the wolf is hatred, then the shadow behind me is death. I came here today to live to die, to find a ray of life in the dead end. I thought that worshipping under the door of my ancestor could help me find a way to transcend life and death. ”
Huo Yuanjia's gaze locked on Huo Zongtang coldly. "Are you afraid of death?"
Huo Zongtang smiled and said: "I have fear in my heart, but I am not afraid of death, compared with death, a mediocre life is more frightening." A philosopher once said that there are only two ways of life in human life, either burning or rotting. I want to burn most happily and then decay most quietly. ”
Huo Jing turned his head to look at him, Huo Wolf turned his head to look at him, and the coldness in Huo Yuanjia's eyes slowly melted.
"Alright." Huo Yuanjia slowly got up and said to the three people in the hall: "The three of you have your own youthful elegance, but you also have your own desperate situation. Huo Jing, you came here to have no regrets. Huo wolf, you are here for revenge. Huo Zongtang, you are here to be fearless. ”
He looked up at the long sky and sighed: "The old man has been quite aware of the destiny of heaven in recent years, but the higher he climbs to the peak of martial arts, the more faint the hope of life and death, the more awe he feels in his heart. Why is it that the more we explore this ultimate martial art, the farther away we are? In this way, I still choose to be fearless in line with the old man's mood. Huo Zongtang, you will be the closed disciple chosen by the old man! ”
As soon as these words came out, Huo Jing's face immediately turned as pale as paper, and Huo Wolf's eyes also showed two strong edges.
Huo Zongtang bowed deeply to Huo Yuanjia.
Huo Yuanjia said to Huo Jing and Huo Wolf: "You two, also choose one of the old man's apprentices to be your master." As compensation, the old man will also teach you a kung fu or two with his own hands. ”
But Huo Wolf suddenly stood up, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Sure enough, the longer you live, the less courage you have. Revenge is the spirit of a young man, fearless, and the state of mind of old decay. I didn't expect that you didn't choose me, but you chose this kid! Looks like you're scared! ”
Huo Yuanjia still smiled lightly. "I'm not afraid of revenge. Before Chen Zhen joined my disciples, his ancestor was defeated by my one-armed old man, and later died of depression. Chen Zhen worshipped me for revenge, and I knew that this was the case, but I still accepted him as an apprentice. ”
Huo Wolf showed a somewhat angry look on his face: "I also came for revenge like Chen Zhen back then, since you can tolerate Chen Zhen, why can't you tolerate me?" ”
Huo Yuanjia looked at him and said, "Because Chen is really human, there is a human heart beating in his chest. And you're a wolf, in your blood...... What flows is wolf nature. ”
Huo Wolf finally stopped talking. He glared at Huo Yuanjia fiercely, then looked back at Huo Zongtang, turned around and strode out of the courtyard.
Huo Yuanjia beckoned to Huo Jing and Huo Zongtang and said, "Get up." ”
Waiting for Huo Zongtang to stand up, Huo Yuanjia said: "Your character, character, and martial arts talent are all higher than Huo Wolf. But you have to be careful with this kid. Once a wolf has identified its target, it will not give up if it does not bite the opponent's throat. ”
Huo Zongtang replied, "The disciple knows. ”
Huo Jing hesitated for a long time before he had the courage to say the question that had been hovering in his heart for a long time: "But looking at Huo Wolf's appearance, he will definitely come back to seek revenge in the future." Master Zu...... Why do you want to let the tiger go back to the mountain? Why not...... Just ...... him."
Huo Yuanjia glanced at her, and a bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Because, he is the bloodline of our Huo family."
"Huh!?"
There is really a different story behind this, but unfortunately Huo Yuanjia has no intention of saying any more, so Huo Jing closed his mouth in amusement.
