Chapter 132: Learning Martial Arts
Early the next morning, Liu Lei and Li Tianlong went out to inspect with the soldiers, and since the lesson of the Wind Blade Beast last time, this has become a common practice.
Almost all the beasts in the nearby mountains and forests were slaughtered, and only the rest were not threatening.
Liu Lei handed over the rabbit beaten with Zhuge Lian's crossbow to the soldiers on the side, and called Li Tianlong to a place where no one was. took out Tie Liuyun's storage ring from his arms and handed the mysterious stone slab inside to Li Tianlong.
Li Tianlong took it and looked at it, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Young Master, what are you giving me a stone for?" ”
Liu Lei pointed to the stone with a bad face and said, "This thing should be what the Tie family and Mu Shiyang are looking for!" ”
"What, this broken slate?" Li Tianlong's face was full of surprise, but no matter how he looked at it, he didn't think there was anything special.
After studying for a long time, Li Tianlong handed over the slate to Liu Lei and asked him to put it away, this thing is a hot potato for them, Li Tianlong also said with an ugly face: "Now we are in trouble!" Tie Liuyun will definitely not be able to hide the fact that you have disappeared from us, everyone will be suspicious of us, and I am afraid that many people will come to find trouble! ”
But at this moment, they have no good way to deal with it, so they can only take one step at a time, and take advantage of this time to increase their ability to protect themselves, otherwise they will be crushed by the big family.
As soon as he thought that there was a Mu Shiyang in Qingfeng Town, Liu Lei had a headache, he had already offended the Tie family, he really didn't want to offend a big family again, and the Mu family's loan had not yet arrived.
Who knew that when the group returned to Qingfeng Town, Zhu Dezhi brought a very sudden news that the Mu family had left in the morning, including Mu Xue'er.
In the bedroom, Liu Lei held the letter that Mu Xueer gave him, and he had mixed feelings in his heart, Mu Xueer wrote in the letter to him:
"Dengzi, you saw that I was already gone when I wrote the letter, I was going back to the family on a blind date, you can rest assured that I took Mu Shiyang away, although I don't know why he wants to trouble you, but I think this is the only thing I can help you now."
You also know the purpose of my visit this time, the Mu family is in trouble now, my mission has not been completed, and now the entire Mu family regards me as a savior, which is ironic, right? So I promised to go home with Mu Shiyang, he would definitely agree, and I won't be able to find you trouble in the short term.
Oh, by the way, I promised you that I would do it, and when I returned to the family, I would have someone send you a loan, and after accepting it, I would become your creditor.
Work hard, try to make your Qingfeng Town stronger, I will give you a year to work hard to make money to pay off your debts, and after a year, if you haven't left enough money to repay me, then you will call me Mrs. when we meet again! Good bye! ”
After reading Mu Xue'er's letter, the tears in the corners of Liu Lei's eyes had already wet the letter, he felt as if his heart had been torn apart, remorse, anger, and unwillingness to attack him, although Mu Xueer did not say it explicitly in the letter, but the friendship for Liu Lei was vividly in every word.
She's gone, for him! Because she was smart enough to see that Liu Lei was very afraid of Mu Shiyang, and staying for one more day might be unfavorable to Liu Lei, so she used herself as a bargaining chip to eliminate the threat to Liu Lei while Liu Lei was gone.
Liu Lei's hands were trembling, and he couldn't wait to rub every word on the letter into his heart, if he was stronger, he might be able to help her at this moment, and he didn't have the courage to give Mu Xue'er a satisfactory answer in the end.
"Young Master!"
Xiao Cui walked in slowly, she had been looking at the door for a long time just now, taking in every watch of Liu Lei, she secretly read the letter on the table, the letter was taken by her, even though it was also sad, but she still walked to Liu Lei's side and held Liu Lei's head in her arms.
"Young master, don't be sad, didn't the letter say a year?" Xiao Cui said in a trembling voice.
"A year?" Liu Lei raised his head slightly and asked uncertainly.
"Didn't Miss Mu say that you would have a year! I guess it's a promise for you! Xiao Cui said affirmatively.
After listening to her words, Liu Lei's eyes lit up, a year! Yes, I still have a year to spare, this time I will not let her down, thinking of this, Liu Lei immediately wiped away his tears and rushed outside.
Running to the door, Liu Lei suddenly stopped, turned back and hugged Xiaocui tightly, and said, "Thank you Xiaocui", and then left the room.
Xiao Cui looked at Liu Lei's back, sighed, lowered her head and cleaned up the things on the table.
"What? Master, you want to learn martial arts? Li Tianlong and Liu Bushan looked at Liu Lei with a surprised expression.
"That's right" Liu Lei nodded vigorously and said, he ran out just now and directly found the two strongest people in Qingfeng Town, saying that the two of them would hand over their martial arts.
Li Tianlong already knew that Mu Xue'er had it, and thought that Liu Lei was stimulated, so he hesitated for a moment before he said cautiously: "Young Master...... You...... If you can't cultivate your fighting spirit, it's useless to learn martial arts! ”
Liu Bushan, who already knew Liu Lei's situation, also nodded again and again, although the martial arts of the Mixed Yuan Continent are very common, but most of them have to cooperate with the role of fighting spirit, if there is no support of fighting energy, it can only be a fist embroidered legs, at most stronger than ordinary people, this is also the origin of the saying that the mainland exercises a breath inside and practices the muscles and bones outside, but how many people in the Mixed Yuan Continent have not practiced fighting spirit at all? Even a beggar understands the most basic Dou Qi running exercises.
"I'll just learn the moves!" Liu Lei said categorically.
Li Tianlong still wanted to soften Liu Lei again, but Liu Bushan stood up and looked at Liu Lei and said: "Without the support of fighting spirit, I'm afraid the most basic young master won't be able to survive!" ”
"I can!" Liu Lei also looked at Liu Bushan's eyes and said, Li Tianlong on the side shook his head and didn't say anything, which can be regarded as acquiescence.
This is not Liu Lei's sudden decision, in fact, he has a special original pattern cultivation method, although there is no fighting qi in his body, but the body parts that have been engraved with the original pattern are no longer below the strength of a first-order fighter, this idea has long been in his mind, but this time because of Mu Xue'er's matter, he has a sense of urgency, and he has a reason to become stronger.
Now that it has been determined, Li Tianlong and the two discussed the division of labor between the two of them, Li Tianlong can be regarded as a decent fighter, and his cultivation has always been step-by-step, although his strength is not particularly strong, but he is better in basic skills.
Every day, he took Liu Lei's training foundation to enhance his physique, and from that day on, Liu Lei had to get up very early every day and run twenty laps around the unbuilt city wall of Qingfeng Town, while the soldiers who also got up early for training only needed to run ten laps, Liu Lei ran straight for two laps, and he only felt that his legs were so heavy that he was like being filled with lead, his head was dizzy, and his stomach was burning like charcoal, and almost all the rest were finished by Li Tianlong like pulling a dead dog.
The people in Qingfeng Town saw that the eldest young master was running and came to watch the trouble, and in the end, many people couldn't bear to watch it and persuaded Liu Lei to give up, but Liu Lei gritted his teeth and insisted on it without saying a word.
Twenty laps ran until noon, and when Li Tianlong threw Liu Lei, who was like a water dog, onto the dinner table, Liu Lei was already confused and couldn't tell whether the rice was eaten by himself or forced by Li Tianlong.
After lunch, Li Tianlong did not let Liu Lei rest for long, and directly took Liu Lei to the stream on the mountain, and let him walk from the downstream to the upstream in the water, the stream in the mountain is not very deep, only beyond Liu Lei's waist, but the mountain is steep, the water flow is very turbulent, Liu Lei entered for the first time, let alone left, and only stood for less than a quarter of an hour before he had no strength to be washed away by the current.
Li Tianlong didn't say anything, just pulled Liu Lei ashore with a gloomy face and threw it into the water again, picked up a wooden stick, and once Liu Lei showed a slight sign of relaxation, he hit Liu Lei's back.
But in this way, Liu Lei still didn't survive an hour, and the nth time he was fished up, he fainted on the ground and couldn't help him, Li Tianlong knew that Liu Lei had no foundation, and he had indeed reached the limit, so he put Liu Lei on his shoulders and carried it back without saying a word. Li Tianlong was so strict with Liu Lei, in fact, he also wanted Liu Lei to retreat, but he didn't think that Liu Lei's stubborn temper came up, even if he was almost tired to death, he didn't say a soft word.
Li Tianlong had no choice but to hand over Liu Lei to Liu Bushan, compared to Li Tianlong, Liu Bushan's training was much easier, it could also be said to be extremely simple, that is, to draw a circle on the tree, let Liu Lei punch as fast as possible, completely casual without any requirements, as long as it was faster than the whip in his hand.
As a result, it can be imagined that Liu Lei, who was already unable to stand on his feet, was hugged back by Liu Bushan at night, and his hands were already swollen like steamed buns.
