Although Wang Mengxiong felt that his body was a little bit like that of a seven or eight-year-old child, he clenched his fists slightly, and the power contained in that muscle made him feel that even a piece of iron could hold out water. However, it is one thing to have power, and it is another to be able to use it well. He is now like a beggar who goes to ask for food with a golden rice bowl, even though he is sitting on a mountain of gold, but he still eats chaff vegetables.

It is a gratifying thing to recover the memories of the afterlife. However, because of the sequelae of Ecstasy Incense, Wang Mengxiong forgot all the memories of his growth before waking up, not to mention the Yue family, who had been practicing hard for many years. Nowadays, if you want to get involved in this circus class, you must learn a craft, but you have to think carefully about what you want to learn. Like Gu Jiaban's better trapeze, empty mouth fishing rod, mouth ring turner, drilling sickle, chest crushing boulder or something, he didn't want to learn. After all, he has the mind and soul of a college student in later generations, and he doesn't want to live on these jugglings all his life.

After thinking about it, Wang Mengxiong set his eyes on Gu Chuanbiao, the head of the Gu family's class. In fact, Gu Chuanbiao is not very old now, only about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, but his two-handed skills are unmatched. One is the flying knife stunt, which can also hit every shot even if blindfolded. The other is the equestrian show, known as the eight-step cicada. These two hands are also the reason why Gu Jiaban can be favored by Shanghai, and they are also the main programs that attract audiences.

"You want to learn my throwing knives and horsemanship?"

Gu Chuanbiao listened to Wang Mengxiong's request and asked with some disbelief. In his opinion, Wang Mengxiong is still a child, what to learn from trapeze, and the project of drilling barrels and circles is just right, but he didn't expect him to want to learn this.

"These two things are not a secret to be taught, but they are quite dangerous. Adults plan to learn this and think twice, you are a child, can't you learn something dangerous and easy? ”

Wang Mengxiong made up his mind that nine cows couldn't pull it back. The head shook like a rattle, and he didn't agree.

"Class master, I'm going to learn this! You're not afraid that I'll learn and steal your limelight, right? ”

Please don't be as good as agitating generals, Wang Mengxiong's little trick is really effective on Gu Chuanbiao.

"Joke, if you learn this from scratch as a child, you may not be able to succeed in three or five years. I am a class leader, will I be afraid that you will not steal the limelight? Well, since you have this determination, I will teach you all and never hide it! ”

Only Gu Chuanqi looked at this and that on the side, how could he feel that his brother had fallen for the child named Wang Mengxiong, and his face from the side clearly had a taste of thieves. It's like the villain who succeeded in the story, the fox who stole the master's chicken, no matter how you look at it, you don't think it's a loyal and honest person. However, in this Gu family class, the head of the class, Gu Chuanbiao, is a man of his word, and it is useless for anyone to refute what he decides after that, because only he can support the name of the Gu family class of the Yinqiao Circus. The others are all dependent on others, and need to rely on his fame and support to eat, and only when their heads are in the water will they challenge his authority.

From Xikou Town to Shanghai, there are a lot of cars and horses on the official road, including trucks with feet, and hot-blooded young people who want to make a fortune in Shiliyangchang with dreams. More people are helping the elderly and children to flee, their hometowns have been affected by disasters, and they have no choice but to leave their hometowns and want to go to Shanghai to beg for food. Gu Jiaban's carriages and horses gradually merged into these first-class carriages and horses, speeding all the way, getting closer and closer to their destinations.

Wang Mengxiong sat in an open-top carriage, crossed Erlang's legs, and looked at the world with a new expression. For people from another world, the sight of fires everywhere and refugees everywhere is so incredible, and it is so shocking.

He saw with his own eyes a fleeing mother, in order to give a pair of children something to eat, took the initiative to put straw sticks in her hair bun and kneel on the side of the road, hoping to meet a kind person to buy her in exchange for food so that the children would not starve to death. There were also some soldiers who fled, I don't know whose men and horses it was, but they just relied on the guns in their hands and openly set up cards on the official roads to extort money.

Those large families are equipped with bodyguards, and some important goods are transported with professional escorts, and these soldiers and ruffians dare not provoke these people, but they only suffer ordinary people. They are already pitiful when they leave their hometowns, and they have to suffer from the exploitation of these soldiers, and they are often directly robbed of the last copper coins on their bodies, with a numb look on their faces, obviously losing confidence in the future.

As a college student, Wang Mengxiong feels that the knowledge he learns from books is far less real than what he gets from being there. "The white bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles", the war scene described by Cao Mengde will actually reappear on the land of Huaxia. This is the sixth year of the Republic of China, the imperial system was overthrown, and the republic was entered, but the people still don't know food and clothing, and they don't know if there is a tomorrow.

"We must be strong, the current state of the big ideal is not realistic, but at least we must be able to protect ourselves. Otherwise, a traverser lives in precariousness every day, and he doesn't know when he will hang up, such a traverser is too sad! ”

Wang Mengxiong thought like this, and the flying knife that turned between his fingers became more and more agile, as if it had life. Gu Chuanqi, who was on the side, watched him fiddle with the flying knife, and asked with some surprise: "Brother Mengxiong, how did you learn so quickly?" If my brother knew that you had practiced throwing knives like this in a short period of time, he would definitely be happy for you, and he wouldn't always keep a straight face! ”

Wang Mengxiong didn't know why he learned this so quickly, as if he had this reaction in his bones and blood. At first, I was afraid that the knife would cut my hand, but gradually I became familiar with the habits of the knife, and it became one with my fingers, and there was a feeling like an arm making a finger.

"Could it be that my body was born to play with knives before? Otherwise, how could it be possible to master the skill of playing with knives so quickly? Now in addition to not knowing how to be accurate, he is not much different from Gu Ban Master in terms of skills! Wang Mengxiong thought so in his heart, but said cheekily: "That's because I have a smart brain and a talented relationship!" What a genius I'm a genius! ”

"Phew! is not ashamed, but also talented, genius, do you know how to write shameful words? ”

"How to write it?" Wang Mengxiong sat on the cabinet and looked at Gu Chuanqi, who was looking up and talking to him below, and said meaningfully. "Of course it's a sheep on top, and it's ugly down there!"

"Stinky child, dare to say that my sister is ugly? See if I don't tear your stinky mouth! ”

Time slipped away in the fight, and soon Wang Mengxiong followed Gu Jiaban into Shanghai, which has a ten-mile foreign field and the reputation of Oriental Paris.
