When Wang Chao was competing with Chen Yulong, an old man with white hair suddenly came to the door, and later learned that he was the contemporary head of Taijiquan

The old man was very strange, just stared at Wang Chao and asked him about the origin of Taijiquan, when he heard that the ancient Taijiquan he practiced at that time was learned from an old man surnamed Xiao in Cangzhou, this Chen Zhangmen suddenly became excited

I have to let Wang Chao take him to find it now.

Several of his apprentices comforted him for a long time, and the old man was shocked, and then told Wang Chao a story

It turned out that the old man was not young, how old he was, not to mention his apprentices, even he himself didn't know very well, but he knew that Emperor Jiaqing was still alive when he was born, and he was at least two hundred years old.

For so many years, the old man never liked to stay at home, he disappeared when he had nothing to do, and he couldn't find anything that he didn't understand in martial arts, so Yang Hualong, the senior brother, took care of the master for everything.

The old man was in a hurry, and he didn't know how to learn Tai Chi with this character.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the society stabilized, the old man left here when he had nothing to do, and walked all over the famous mountains and rivers in China, mainly looking for his master, originally he was apprenticed to a barren mountain, so after so many years, he always thought that the master was still in the mountains, and never thought that the master would be born, and stayed in the vast red dust.

"That's right, my master is Xiao Lao, alas, I have parted with my master for more than a hundred years, back then, if it wasn't for my willfulness, I wouldn't have left the master in a bad mood, since this time things have changed, after several ups and downs, I have never seen the master and his old man again"

Saying that, the old man actually cried, and everyone couldn't help but be moved by the old man.

Everyone persuaded for a long time. The old man finally stopped crying, pulled Wang Chao and asked about Xiao Lao's recent situation, Wang Chao gave answers one by one, and promised the old man that after arranging the work here, he would definitely take the old man to find Xiao Lao.

Then he talked about his intentions, and when he heard that he was kicked by several apprentices because of the opening of the martial arts hall, the old man became angry, and everyone kicked a few times, and was stopped by Wang Chao.

"Old Chen, in fact, my senior brother is also to blame for this, he didn't come to the dock in advance, so it caused a misunderstanding among several senior brothers, since it is said now, it will be fine."

"Master Wang, it's all my fault, I'll go to Yanjing another day and go to your master and your senior brother Ouyang to take the blame."

Everyone took a step back from each other. It's kind of a revelation of this.

At noon, Wang Chao had a meal, and in the afternoon, Wang Chao said goodbye and made an appointment to accompany Chen Lao to Cangshi to meet the master on the third day.

"Uncle Shi, you are really amazing. One person singled out their entire sect", on the way back, Yang Meng couldn't help but slap Wang Chao's horse

"Hmm!!" Wang Chao glared at him, "Don't talk nonsense, no one is allowed to pass on this matter to me today." Otherwise, I'll kick him out of the division."

Feeling a little too harsh, he softened and continued, "You remember. No matter at any time in the future, no matter how deep your kung fu has become, you must be low-key, and leave a line for people in case of trouble, otherwise sooner or later there will be a time to suffer, and suffering is a blessing, this sentence must be firmly remembered"

"Yes, Uncle Shi, we remembered"

Since there is no obstacle from reality, Wang Chao is not ready to stay here longer, please Hu Yunshan to preside here temporarily, he is ready to accompany Chen Lao to find the master first, and then he will return to Yanjing to deal with the master, in addition, the wedding date is very close, Yanjing still has a lot of things, and he can't stay here for a long time.

Even in just a few days, Wang Chao received several phone calls, mainly because his parents urged him to go back early to prepare, and the company also looked for him to go back, so he couldn't stay here longer.

I didn't go out the next day, and they seized this opportunity by Yang Meng and asked him to give him good guidance

With Wang Chao's current vision and realm, he can understand it at a glance, so he taught each of them according to their aptitude and made serious guidance.

In the afternoon, Wang Chao and Hu Yunshan talked about the opening of the martial arts hall, and soon the day passed.

Early in the morning of the third day, as soon as it was dawn, Chen Lao rushed over

Wang Chao looked at the old man's dress and almost didn't recognize it. The white beard and hair were dyed black, the beard was hung up, he was wearing a traditional coat, he was wearing cloth shoes with mille-feuille soles, his face seemed to be wrinkled a lot, and his face was red and fluttering, and he was dozens of years younger, looking at his appearance, he was in his sixties, but who knew that he had a high life span of nearly two hundred years.

"Boy, have you packed up?"

"Old Chen, I've packed it up, and I'm going to pick you up."

Then Wang Chao and Hu Yunshan gave a few more instructions, and then accompanied Chen Lao to leave.

This time I took the train and went directly to Cangshi.

On the train, the old man looked around and was very interested in this means of transportation, "Boy, how fast can this tool go?" ”

Wang Chao almost came out happy, and hurriedly responded, "Old Chen, this is a train, and it is very common to travel 2,000 miles a day."

"Hey, it's really fast, it seems that sitting on this thing has been able to sit on the ground for 80,000 miles a day as the ancients said, I've always heard of it before, but I haven't sat it yet, this time it's enjoyable"

As he was talking, suddenly a little girl who looked like he was five or six years old in the seat opposite and said, "Grandpa, you are also taking the train for the first time, and so am I."

There was originally a young woman next to the little girl, presumably her mother, who went to the toilet, and the little girl was bored alone, and she was not stage frightened, and took the initiative to greet strangers

"Oh, it's the first time for you little girl, it seems that we are destined, hey, you ......"

Old man Chen replied inadvertently, and glanced up at the other party, and suddenly his eyes narrowed, "Little girl, you hand it to grandpa and touch it."

The girl didn't know what was going on with the old man in front of her, but she had a natural sense of closeness to him, so she stretched out her little white hand

The little hands of this age should be when they are full of blood and white as jade, but when these hands stretched out, Wang Chao was also taken aback

I saw that on my little hands, the skin was dry and bloodless, as if she was like an old lady in her sixties and seventies.

The left hand grabbed her little hand, and the right hand reached out three fingers and put them on the little girl's inch, and after about a minute, he put it on the other hand and probed. Finally, he let go of his hand and asked in a low voice, "Child, do you usually feel hungry when you don't eat anything?" ”

"Yes, grandpa, I don't even know why, but later my mother took me to the hospital to find out that I was sick"

As she was talking, the woman came back and saw the old man with the face of Cixi talking to the girl on the other side. Then he said, "Hey, it's also my daughter's life, and the local small hospital can't find out any problems, and a bunch of medicines are prescribed, but not only does it have no effect, but the skin becomes like this after eating, sometimes the child cries when he sleeps and dreams at night, but he never says it during the day."

After the woman finished speaking, she stroked the girl's head lovingly. Redness of eye circles

"This time we went to Yanjing to find a big hospital to see a doctor, her father has already mentioned it, this time we don't see a good doctor, we won't go back"

"I'm afraid the hospital won't be able to see this child's illness well. I don't mean anything else. I also know a little bit about medicine. There is no imbalance of yin and yang in her body, and I am afraid that there is no way to use ordinary medicine, unless she uses good ginseng, at least more than 5,000 years of ginseng can make up for her hanging."

Wang Chao listened. His heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask, "Old Chen." What do you think is the disease of this little girl? What exactly caused it?"

"I have seen the disease of this girl, speaking of which is still the eighteenth year of Xianfeng, once when I went to Xiangxi, I met a Miao couple with such a size of the girl, at that time I was also curious to ask, only to know that this disease has been circulating in their Miao village for thousands of years, it is said that it is called back to life, it is said that with age, the skin will get worse and worse, like a sixty-year-old woman, generally not more than ten years, and the strange thing is that this disease is only born in the daughter" Chen Lao said in a low voice and Wang Chao

"Then why do you say that it takes at least 5,000 years of ginseng to be able to hang him?"

"I also listened to what the couple said, and it is also a legend in their Miao village, it is said that only after eating ginseng for more than a thousand years can you hang your life, and then you can use the method of exchanging blood to recover, but this also needs to be before the age of ten, otherwise even the Daluo Immortal will be difficult to save after that" After speaking, the old man shook his head helplessly

Wang Chao nodded, thought about it, took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to the woman, "This eldest sister, I have some friends in Yanjing, if you need help with treatment, you can call me."

The woman accepted it and thanked her.

The reason why I didn't directly say that I had that kind of ginseng was mainly because I was worried that people wouldn't believe it, and just now Chen Lao said that ginseng is just a legend, in case it doesn't work, it's not a white family's joy.

Besides, the diseases that could not be treated in the past may not be cured by the current medicine, and since people are going to Yanjing to find a big hospital to see a doctor, they must also have a glimmer of hope, so Wang Chao just took out a business card and did not continue to say anything.

The high-speed rail is very fast, and it will take more than three hours to arrive in Cangshi, because Wang Chao mentioned it to Xiao Lao before coming, so when he got off the train, he saw Wang Jinghua waiting at the exit of the station, and went to the donkey fire main store of Xiao Lao in Cangshi City.

Cangshi Donkey Fire Main Store was still doing so much business, and the three of them turned directly to the back and walked in through the back door.

When he entered the door, Chen Lao stumbled under his feet, staring blankly at the gate, Xiao Lao who was standing in the courtyard, his lips trembled, "Master, Master, I finally saw you."

After speaking, he knelt on the ground, walked with his knees, crawled to Xiao Lao on his knees, hugged Xiao Lao's thighs and shouted loudly

Xiao Lao was also very excited, tears came out of his eyes, and his hand stroked Chen Lao's head, "Qingyun, Qingyun, I finally saw you again for the teacher, and I have been looking for you for more than a hundred years, if it wasn't for you, I would not have been born a long time ago, you kid,... Where did you go, kid? ”

The two old men hugged each other and cried, and Wang Chao and Wang Jinghua couldn't help but have red circles in their eyes, and almost burst into tears.

Fortunately, there was no one else in the yard except them, otherwise it would not be shocking to see the two old men hugging and crying

After a long time, the two of them finally stopped crying, Wang Jinghua had already made tea in the room, beckoned a few people into the room, Chen Lao held Xiao Lao's hand tightly, as if he would lose it again as soon as he let go, and the two walked into the hall hand in hand.

After sitting down, the two confided in each other about their experience of more than 100 years, and Wang Chao gradually understood the source of the matter.

It turned out that Xiao Lao was a child rescued from a group of traffickers when Chen Lao was eight years old, and he was moved by compassion when he saw that he was smart and bold, and after some interrogation, he learned that he was an orphan and didn't know where his home was, so he couldn't send him away, so he adopted him like this, half as if he was half a child.

At that time, Xiao Lao lived in Taihang Mountain, and after taking him back, he taught for ten years, and in these ten years, Xiao Lao handed over seven or eight out of ten kung fu to him

At that time, the society was gradually turbulent, and there were refugees from time to time on the mountain where the two lived, all of whom tried to take in and give treatment, and one day they saved a few people, one of whom had an arm cut off, and only after asking did they know that these people were the Taiping Army, and they were stupidly defeated by the Qing army, and fled into the mountains in a panic, and happened to meet the two of them.

After hearing the reason, Xiao Lao was a little embarrassed: although he was full of martial arts, whether it was the Taiping Army or the Qing Army, he didn't have a good impression, and he always thought that a general would succeed and ten thousand bones would wither, no matter who became the emperor, it was the common people who suffered, so he always had an attitude of escapism.

For these people, Xiao Lao meant to leave as soon as they were treated, so as not to bring danger to themselves, but Chen Qingyun at that time was young and vigorous, coupled with his martial arts, he was very sympathetic to these people, and begged the master to leave them behind and leave after the rumors passed.

Later, the two of them had a discord because of these people, and Chen Qingyun went down the mountain with a few people in anger, and the two of them never saw each other again.

"Qingyun, after you left, the master also went down the mountain to find you, followed the Taiping army to the north and south, until they were defeated and did not find you, and then thought that you might be full of ability should be fine, so the division traveled all over the north and south of the river, and the sixty-three provinces in the south and north were all searched, and it was enough to fight the war, and then he came to Cangshi to open this donkey fire shop. Qingyun: How have you spent so many years? ”

"Master, I regret that I shouldn't have listened to you. At that time, I went down the mountain in a rage, and those people saw that I was capable and encouraged me to join their Taiping army, and promised me that once I overthrew the Qing court, I would be a protector general. When you first taught me martial arts, you said that you should learn cultural relics and sell them to the emperor's family. So as soon as my brain was hot, I agreed. Who knew that the Taiping Army at that time was already in turmoil, and the internal friction was very powerful, no more than me, no less than me, several bloody battles, but the Qing army had a row of guns, no matter how good the martial arts could not stop. Then I was captured and kept in captivity for half a year, and when my wounds healed, I escaped while they were unprepared. I went back to the mountain to look for you, I couldn't find it, I waited on the mountain for more than a year, and you didn't come back, I was worried that you would be affected by me and be ...... by the Qing court, and then I was disheartened and went to Chenjiagou, I couldn't afford to get sick, and finally I was rescued by the local people, so I stayed, and I have stayed until now......"
