In the bamboo forest outside the city, a thatched hut is lit up with smoke and is just in time for dinner.

Lu Xin stood with his sword in his arms and said loudly, "Lu family, Lu Xin, I want to see the gentleman Jian Yue Lao!" ”

Yue Lao is a little old, much older than Lu Jian, a character belonging to his grandfather's generation, he is dressed in a green shirt, his face is very clean, he has no beard, and his hair is slightly gray.

The old man was about to make a fire to cook, when he heard the sound and stood up, this time, his body was straight, like a sharp sword out of the sheath, and the door was pushed open with a "creak", and Yue Lao's face was gentle, "It turned out to be an offspring, what is the matter?" ”

"Learn the sword!" Lu Xin changed his sword to hold the sword with both hands, bowed his head and showed respect.

Yue Lao only glanced at Lu Xin when he opened the door, and the rest of the time his attention was on the sword, his eyes kept moving with the sword, Lu Xin made a big move, and the blade of the sword flashed white light again.

Yue Lao's eyelids twitched, he didn't close his eyes, but his eyes shone slightly, Lu Zhi could only see the attributes of the gentleman's sword, and the appearance was not exquisite, and he couldn't feel the inside of the sword at all.

Yue Lao is different, his sharp eyes cut from the sword bone and blade to the hilt, "Good sword, the sword bone is thick and strong, the blade has a heroic atmosphere, the shape of the sword handle fits perfectly into the palm of the hand, and it must be held firmly, it is really a gentleman's sword!" ”

Lu Xin secretly exclaimed, this is the swordsman's so-called unity of man and sword? Thinking like this, he became more and more respectful, "If you go back to your predecessors, this sword is a gentleman's sword." ”

The material of the Junzi Sword is not good enough, it is only made of fine iron, so it is naturally not a divine sword, but in the eyes of Yue Lao, it is a living thing, and there is such a spirit and spirit, which is not possessed by ordinary divine swords.

"This sword has a gentleman's backbone, and it is a good match for me, but a gentleman does not win people's favors......" Yue Lao's heart turned a thousand times, and his face did not leak, "I don't accept apprentices, please go back." ”

"Elder Yue, the juniors really want to learn swords."

"Oh? Then I ask you, do you know what a gentleman is? ”

"Yes!" Lu Xin listened to Lu Li's chatter, "A gentleman, who has both ability and political integrity, is courteous in literary quality, does something and does nothing, and if he is good, he will help the world, and if he is poor, he will be good to himself." ”

"Well, what else?"

"A gentleman should be like the sky, resolute and resolute, indignant, and never stop; A gentleman should be like the earth, thick and smooth, benevolent, righteous and moral, and tolerant of all things. ”

"Not bad!"

When Lu Xin heard that Yue Lao was so satisfied, he felt that he was not far from taking it, "There is no need to look at the thatched house three times, the rumors are really not credible." ”

Yue Lao continued, "You said it so well, why don't you go to the imperial examination?" ”

Lu Xin: "??? ”

Why does it smell like a fourth brother?

Lu Xin stood in his true body, "If you are not good at reading in later life, you will definitely not succeed in the imperial examination." Then he bowed again, "Elder Yue doesn't want to teach now, it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to teach in the future, so the juniors will come back tomorrow." ”

"No, I don't want to teach tomorrow."

Lu Xin was stunned, and sure enough, as the fourth brother expected, "Then I will come again the day after tomorrow and keep coming." ”

Yue Lao subconsciously wanted to touch his chin, and when he saw that his hands were all charcoal black, which was accidentally stained when he was cooking on the fire just now, he had to rub his fingers, "Aren't you a scoundrel?" The old man is called a gentleman's sword, and the way of the sword is also upright, and he can't learn it by playing a scoundrel. ”

"This is perseverance and gentleman's character, how can it be called a scoundrel?" Lu Xin smiled secretly, the fourth brother had expected these questions of Yue Lao before leaving, and the answers were prepared clearly, one ring after another.

It's just that he was too anxious at the time and didn't remember too much, for fear that Yue Lao would continue to ask, Lu Xin bowed and saluted, "This is a gentleman's sword built by my brother, the fourth brother once said that the sword is given to the hero, and Yue Lao is invited to accept it!" ”

Yue Lao: "!! ”

Sophistry, this is sophistry! Well? What a tenacity! Yes, the children can be taught!

However, as a generation of kendo masters, accepting apprentices must not be hasty, and some temptation is needed, Yue Lao looked at the carbon black in his hand and thought about it, "Hou Sheng, do you know how to cook?" ”

He has used the sword all his life, and when he is old, he knows that this fire for cooking is much more difficult than swordsmanship, which often makes him disgraced, and the original good beard is not burned, so he can only shave it painfully.

That's really distressing, you must know that his beard is to meet a master of the same level, even if the fierce battle is in full swing, and the fight is inseparable, he has to share a mental care, which Cheng wants to be destroyed on this stove.

When Lu Xin heard it, this was relieved, which means that there is a drama, but cooking ...... He can only eat, the secret chicken thighs at home, the fourth brother's barbecue, and the mutton soup pies in Fangshi are all good, thinking about it, Lu Xin is hungry.

"Yes, it must be, Elder Yue, it's not me who blows, the craftsmanship of the younger generations is applauded, and everyone who has eaten it will give a thumbs up." Lu Xin pouted such a sentence with a bald mouth, and secretly scolded Lu Zhi in his heart.

"Master, no, future master, don't blame me, I learned it from the fourth brother, if you want to complain, you can complain about the fourth brother, it has nothing to do with my little letter."

Then why don't you become a cook? Yue Lao's control is much stronger than Lu Xin's, and he didn't pout, "Then you can stay and cook for me, if I'm satisfied......"

"You teach me how to practice swords!"

"No, you just stay and cook."

Lu Xin's eyes rolled, "Okay, but not today, Elder Yue, please put away the sword first, and the juniors have to go back and tell their father." ”

"It should." Yue Lao's heart was dripping blood when he said this, and he had to eat another meal of boiled wild vegetables, and every meal he relied on the perseverance he had cultivated in kendo to barely swallow.

Lu Xin should be glad, fortunately he didn't listen to Lu Zhi, he didn't stay to eat Yue Lao's, drink Yue Lao's, Yue's old family's food, it's hard to say, it's not something that dark cuisine can describe, it's just terrible.

…………

The Lu family.

Lu Xin rushed in, just in time for Lu Zhi to take the lead in carving up today's share of the secret chicken legs, "Fourth brother, don't you plan to keep it for me at all?" ”

Lu Zhi's hand was beaten, and he naturally sandwiched the chicken thighs that were about to be put in his bowl into the empty bowl on the side, "How come?" You see, isn't that reserved for you? Then again, how did you come back so soon? ”

"Oh, I don't think it's a problem to take down Yue Lao, so I'll come back first." Lu Xin swallowed a large mouthful of chicken thighs.

Lu Zhi pouted, "Eat slowly, this food is about to catch up with your fat second brother." ”

Lu Yi: "??? ”

Fourth, I've been waiting for an opportunity to beat you up lately, do you see my fierce eyes? I'm glaring at you!

If you want to say that Lu Yi is helpless, he either can't touch Lu Zhi's shadow, or he is with Lu Jian, and he has no chance to start at all.

Lu Zhi tore a piece of chicken skin, swallowed it slowly, and her beautiful eyes narrowed, it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that the gentleman's sword fought with others, and he lost the sword and all his net worth, so he no longer cared about the affairs of the rivers and lakes in a fit of anger, and turned to seclusion.

He gave the hero a sword in his hand, and it was estimated that it could also play a big role, you see, sure enough, the favor was directly full.

Boom, Lu Yi lowered his head and shouted silently, "God, open your eyes and take a look, look at the fourth child's unbeaten dead look!" ”
