"Mr. Zhou, there is something unclear below, why have you been reluctant to accept that kid as an apprentice?" Zhang San bowed slightly and asked puzzled.

Zhou Tong said solemnly: "That kid's perseverance and endurance are all excellent, there are countless people who have come here to find the old man before, and no one has ever been so sincere." It's just that the old man is already old and no longer accepts apprentices, and even if he does, he doesn't have more energy to teach them martial arts, so why harm others! ”

Li Si said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zhou, do you think you can consider taking him as an apprentice?" ”

"Why?" Zhou Tong looked at Li Si curiously.

I saw Li Si say respectfully: "That kid has been here for a month, and he has never had the slightest intention of retreating, and he lives in a firewood house. No matter the wind or rain, he has never cried to you, nor has he opened his mouth to enter the courtyard, and has been waiting for your answer, this is a person of great perseverance. ”

Although I don't know what his intention is to practice martial arts, this endurance alone is far beyond ordinary people, and it is extraordinary. Moreover, he never sleeps for a little more every day, gets up on time for morning exercises, and his martial arts seem immature. I feel that kid has great potential, and if you don't like it, that kid is not necessarily worse than the disciple you taught. ”

"Since you have closed the door and not accepted apprentices, and made an exception to teach the martial arts to the other four, there are not many of them, and there are many of them, you are teaching, you only need to lead them into the door, and the back is up to them. Besides, that kid's sincerity, even our two brothers feel a little moved, if he also follows you to practice martial arts, maybe he can learn your martial arts to the fullest, and then carry it forward! ”

Before, Zhou Tong had been reluctant to accept Zhao Gou as an apprentice, just because Zhao Gou's identity was unknown, and he didn't know the rules of the rivers and lakes, he was careless, and there were people following him behind him, so he didn't want to cause trouble; Another reason is that he is unwilling to accept any more apprentices in his own promise, but seeing that Zhao Gou's heart to practice martial arts is so firm, his heart that is as hard as iron is slowly softening.

After a month of observation, putting aside other things, Zhou Tong could see that Zhao Gou was dedicated to practicing martial arts and pursuing martial arts. And, from his moves, Zhou Tong knew that Zhao Gou's martial arts foundation was a little weak. I knew it from the beginning, and after a month, I was surprised to find that the foundation of Zhao Gou's martial arts began to become stable, and the same move, when used again, the power was different.

Hearing Li Si's words, it was exactly what Zhou Tong was thinking in his heart, and he did have the intention of accepting Zhao Gou as an apprentice. However, Zhou Tong couldn't walk out of his oath and was unwilling to be a man who broke his promise and gained weight, so he hesitated. When Li Si's blunt words woke up Zhou Tong with a word, he suddenly found himself in a circle, almost unable to get out, in fact, as long as he put it down and think calmly, he could think about it, which has been bothering him for a long time.

It's really the authorities, the fans, the bystanders, the clear!

Zhou Tong smiled slightly, but did not answer, but looked at it left and right, and said, "Next, will you two stay here to continue to observe, or return to the villa?" ”

Zhang San answered: "Since you are here, then our two brothers will also go back, and it is inconvenient to stay here longer." ”

"Farewell!"

So, Zhou Tong, Zhang San, and Li Si said goodbye to each other, Zhou Tong turned around and went back to his hut, while Zhang San and Li Si rode away on horses with a smile.

"Third brother, do you think Mr. Zhou will accept that kid as an apprentice?" Li Si straddled the saddle, turned to look at the departing figure of Zhou Dong behind him, and asked in a low voice.

Zhang San said confidently: "Don't worry, fourth, he will definitely accept that kid as an apprentice, it's time for us to go back and hand over the errand, the task is finally completed." ”

Zhang San and Li Si rode towards Tokyo with confidence, the real purpose of the two of them was not only to follow Zhao Gou's side, but also to let the two of them help him and give him a little help, so that Zhao Gou could become Zhou Dong's disciple as soon as possible. At the beginning, they followed Zhao Gou to this place, and passed the flying pigeon of the situation 1510 back to the villa.

Unexpectedly, news came from the villa that the two of them helped Zhao Gou worship him as a teacher. As for the reason, Zhang San and Li Si didn't understand it until they saw that the person was Zhou Tong today, and they didn't understand the above meaning. As long as they let Zhou Tong accept Zhao Gou as an apprentice, then they can return to Beijing, otherwise they can only stay here and continue to follow Zhao Gou's side.

Even though the two of them had some complaints in their hearts, the two of them were helpless, seeing Zhao Gou living their lives in a hurry, the two of them were anxious. It wasn't until they saw Zhou Dong's boxing technique that Zhang San and Li Si knew that the person that kid wanted to apprentice to would be a generation of martial arts master Zhou Tong, and they immediately thought of a plan.

Zhang San and Li Si did not have any language communication, sang and harmonized, and completed the tasks assigned above without any flaws. The two of them also saw the complicated look on Zhou Tong's face, and guessed that Zhou Tong couldn't pass the level in their hearts. So, the two of them gave Zhou Tong a reason to convince himself and let him accept apprentices again, that is, closed-door disciples.

When Zhou Tong taught martial arts in the villa, the two of them had not yet entered the villa and had never been in contact with Zhou Dong. However, Zhang San and Li Si still guessed a little bit through the fight, prescribed the right medicine, and hit the nail on the head, which made Zhou Tong change his mind and decide to accept the apprentice again.

Zhang San and Li Si happily turned around and left, Zhou Tong took heavy steps, and his complicated mood made it a little difficult for him to choose. When he walked to the thatched house where Zhao Gou lived, Zhao Gou slept soundly, and after quietly glancing at it, he sighed softly: "Could it be that God will do this?" ”

Zhou Tong watched Zhao Gou sleep on the straw, with a bed of cotton wool on it, which Wang Gui quietly gave to Zhao Gou, and the firewood room was full of firewood, some of which were chopped by Yue Fei, Wang Gui and others, and some were chopped by Zhao Gou himself, neatly stacked together, forming a natural wall to block some heavy rain.

Zhao Gou, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes suddenly, quickly stood up, grabbed a piece of wood casually, threw it towards Zhou Tong, and struck with all his strength. The faint candlelight could only illuminate a little way, and he couldn't see the situation outside clearly at all, Zhao Gou thought it was a villain, so he didn't hesitate to shoot.

Zhou Tong's slight sigh made the sleeping Zhao Gou hear a different sound and suddenly wake up. Zhao Gou didn't know that it was Zhou Tong who was standing outside, and it was impossible for anyone to come out in the middle of the night. So, Zhao Gou did not hesitate to make a move, without any weapon in his hand, he could only use firewood and throw it out.

The firewood thrown out by Zhao Gou with all his strength galloped directly towards Zhou Tong; Zhou Tong was a little surprised when he saw Zhao Gou wake up, and wanted to turn around and leave, but he never thought that Zhao Gou would find the movement, and he didn't hesitate to throw out a piece of firewood. Zhou Tong turned around and looked at the galloping firewood, listened to the sound of the firewood breaking in the air, and whispered to himself: "This power is not something that ordinary children can have? ”

Zhou Tong did not hesitate to catch the firewood thrown by Zhao Gou with his hand, frowned, and was silent for a long time. At this time, compared with him a month ago, the biggest thing is strength, I don't know how much strength the whole body has, everything thrown away can be like a hidden weapon, and I can hear the voice to judge the enemy's location, even Zhao Gou himself is a little surprised, not to mention Zhou Dong.

"Listen to the voice?" Zhou Tong looked at the piece of firewood in his hand in a daze, frowned, and thought secretly: "With his martial arts foundation, even if he is fast, it is impossible to learn this trick in a month." However, his strength is indeed much greater, and it seems that this kid also has some talent. ”

Zhao Gou followed closely and quickly came to Zhou Dong's face, he couldn't see Zhou Dong's appearance clearly, and shouted: "You thief dare to come here, eat the master's trick!" ”

Zhou Tong didn't say a word, just stood like this and let Zhao Gou continue to attack. Zhou Tong also knew that Zhao Gou's martial arts had improved by leaps and bounds in just one month, and even he was incredible. Therefore, Zhou Tong also wanted to try Zhao Gou's martial arts. Zhao Gou couldn't see the person who was coming, and his intuition told him that the person in front of him was strong in martial arts and must not be careless. Therefore, Zhao Gou showed no mercy at all, and tried his best to use all the martial arts and other martial arts he had learned in Lin Chong in the past three years.

"Luohan Fist!"

"Back punch!"

"Red Fist!"

"Plum Blossom Fist!"

"Lin Jiaquan!"

Zhao Gou used more than a dozen boxing techniques in a row, including Shaolin boxing, there are other boxing techniques, and the most surprising thing for Zhou Tong is that Zhao Gou will also use 'Lin Family Boxing', which is Lin Chong's family boxing method. The unique boxing Zhou Dong knew at a glance that he was still Lin Chong's mentor, instructing Lin Chong's marksmanship, how could he not know the martial arts that Lin Chong was good at.

"This kid has so many punches at such a young age!" Zhou Tong looked at Zhao Gou, who was only six years old, who was able to use so many boxing techniques, and he was very familiar with them in one go, and said in surprise: "No wonder his foundation is weak, just because he pays attention to boxing, the boxing techniques he knows are too miscellaneous, why does he know that kid's family boxing method?" ”

Zhao Gou was immersed in the attack, and he also ignored who Zhou Dong was in front of him, as if he saw the prey in his eyes, he attacked without hesitation, and the continuous attacks were all easily blocked by Zhou Dong. The angry Zhao Gou attacked again without any hesitation.

At the same time, the sound of the battle between Zhao Gou and Zhou Tong caused Yue Fei, Wang Gui and others who were sleeping soundly in the house, and the four of them got up curiously, heard the sound of someone fighting, and walked out in unison. Yue Fei and the others were all playing lanterns, rubbing their worried eyes, and when they heard the sound of fighting coming from outside, they couldn't help but feel sleepy, and they lit lanterns one after another.

Everyone carried lanterns and pushed open the door, just a faint light shone on Zhou Dong's face, Zhao Gou looked at the wrinkled and smiling face, hurriedly restrained his offensive, and exclaimed: "Mr. Zhou, the kid doesn't know it's you, and I hope to forgive you, please forgive me!" ”

Yue Fei and the others also widened their eyes, and stepped forward one after another, looking at their master and Zhao Gou in surprise, looking at each other, they all felt inexplicable. They didn't understand why Zhao Gou fought with his master, and Zhou Dong never fought back from beginning to end, but just guarded, making them even more unable to understand what was going on.

Seeing that Yue Fei and the others were all up, Zhou Tong nodded slightly, looked at Zhao Gou again, and asked, "What do you have to do with Lin Chong?" Why do you use his family tradition? ”

Zhao Gou replied truthfully: "Sect Leader Lin is the mentor of the kid, and the villain's martial arts are taught by him. ”

"I see!" Zhou Tong nodded suddenly and said, "So, he also asked you to come to the old man?" ”

"Yes, it was Sect Leader Lin who asked me to come to you!" Zhao Gou replied respectfully.

Zhou Tong frowned, puzzled: "Since he is your master, why do you call him the head of the sect and not his master?" ”

Zhao Gou cried with a sad face and sighed: "It's not that the kid doesn't want to call the master, it's that the head of the Lin sect told the kid not to shout, he said that I will learn from you, maybe you will accept me as an apprentice, if you call the master, it will be a mess." Moreover, Lin Jiaotou didn't let me pour tea, and he didn't hold an apprenticeship ceremony, so the kid called him Lin Jiaotou. ”
