It is said that people are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong.

Shen Chen is only relying on people in Suzhou and Hangzhou now, so he dares to reluctantly expose his strength to the eyes of outsiders.

If it was in the capital, he would never do it.

At least not until you're absolutely sure.

Now the old dean of the Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial Arts Academy wants to worship himself as a teacher, what will this look like if it spreads?

Probably thinking of this as well, Xun Lao hesitated: "If the seniors don't want to be too famous, the juniors can keep their mouths shut." ”

The silence here certainly refers to the fact that the identities between the two will not be exposed.

But even with verbal assurances, Shen Chen was still not at ease.

"Elder Xun, you and I can be friends, so why do you have to be commensurate with master and apprentice?"

Unexpectedly, Xun Lao is the biggest old stubborn in the Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial Arts Academy. As long as it is something he decides, no one can change it.

No matter how good Shen Chen tried to persuade him, he just didn't listen.

Probably because it was really out of line, Shen Chen could only sigh lightly and said, "Actually...... It's not that you can't ......."

Hearing this, Xun Lao's face turned overjoyed, and he hurriedly raised his head and asked, "If there is any problem, the senior will say that it is okay!" ”

"Are you sure you don't let outsiders know who we're talking about? I want an absolute answer, not a possibility. ”

Faced with Shen Chen's question, Xun Lao replied without thinking: "As long as the seniors are willing to accept me as an apprentice, no outsiders will know!" ”

"I'm going to sign a deal with you. If you agree, I might consider taking you as an apprentice. ”

The agreement that Shen Chen said is actually a confidentiality agreement.

If the other party reveals the identities of the two people, it is not just money that needs to be compensated. You may also lose your own life.

Of course, this is not an agreement unilaterally set by Shen Chen, but the martial arts world has existed since ancient times.

Xun Lao still replied very affirmatively: "Of course this is no problem!" ”

After speaking, Xun Lao motioned for Shen Chen to follow him back to the office. And find a new non-disclosure agreement in the drawer.

Seeing the agreement handed over by the other party, Shen Chen couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

There is a limit to the confidentiality agreement, even if there are few copies of the Shen family in the capital. This old man can take it out casually.

It seems that he still underestimated the other party's rights in the Suzhou-Hangzhou martial arts world.

Subsequently, when the two signed the agreement, each held a copy.

Xun Lao immediately couldn't wait to take a cup of tea, and was about to kneel down when he came to Shen Chen.

Shen Chen was shocked, and hurriedly helped Xun Lao up, and said helplessly: "I accept apprentices, and I don't pay so much attention to it." ”

…………

Shen Chen, who had left the Martial Arts Academy, looked quite complicated.

He never thought that he would accept the dean of the Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial Arts Academy as an apprentice. That sounds crazy.

In the previous life, I may not dare to think about it.

Seeing that it was only one o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Chen hesitated to return to the Baicao Hall where Luo Lao was again.

After all, there was Shen Yuan before, and there were many things that could not be said.

Baicaotang.

As soon as the cheongsam beauty saw Shen Chen coming towards her, she hurried to the inner hall to inform Dr. Luo.

After Shen Chen and Shen Yuan left, Luo Lao specially reminded the cheongsam beauties that if they saw Young Master Shen again, they must inform them in advance.

It just so happened that Luo Lao, who learned that Young Master Shen was back again, took the two big bags that had been placed on the table before.

With his knowledge of medicinal herbs. How can you not see these two big bags, but they are both precious materials for martial arts cultivation.

Some of the materials are treasures that he never dares to touch in his life!

"Young Master Shen, these materials ...... Where did you get it from? ”

saw Shen Chen enter the inner hall. Luo Lao hurriedly pointed to the two large bags of materials on the table and asked nervously.

"These are all from friends. I brought it to you without need. ”

Shen Chen said casually, but in Luo Lao's ears, he was not calm.

Let's talk about the unicorn grass in the bag on the right. Although there are only two, they are rare treasures in the Shen family in the capital.

There is also the dragon fruit in the bag on the left. It is also claimed that it can only bear fruit once in ten years, and the supply exceeds demand.

Even if you have a background, it is impossible to give away these Kui treasures casually.

Shen Chen was able to have this heart, which already made him feel very gratified.

But if he wants to use these materials to cultivate, what is the difference between that and the tyrannical Heavenly Creatures?

"Young Master Shen, these materials ...... You'd better take it back. I can't stand it, old man! ”

Unexpectedly, Shen Chen pretended to be displeased and replied: "Old Luo, you just don't give me face when you say that." ”

"This ......" Luo Lao didn't expect to make the other party angry.

After hesitating for a long time, he reluctantly agreed.

As the owner of Baicaotang and the former guest of the Shen family, no one knows the effects of these materials better than him.

Not to mention breaking through to the peak of the human level, even the yellow level is not impossible.

Instead, Shen Chen looked at the old man with gorgeous hair in front of him distressedly. I can't say anything nice.

He only knew that Luo Lao had done a thankless job for half his life for the Shen family.

Now that he has resigned from the Shen family, he has not even benefited at all. Not to mention that the people of the Shen family came to visit.

In addition, Luo Lao is the only elder of the Shen family who supports him. Now Shen Chen has long regarded him as his grandfather.

"Young Master Shen, the old man really doesn't know how to thank you......"

Luo Lao's eyes were a little red, probably because he didn't expect Shen Chen to be so good to him.

In order to change the topic, Shen Chen hurriedly coughed twice and said, "By the way, Luo Lao, what is Shen Yuan doing here?" ”

Hearing the name of the eldest young master of the Shen family, Luo Lao's face gradually became solemn.

After hesitating for a moment, he explained in a low voice: "The eldest young master came this time to ask the old man to meet with Dean Xun of the Suzhou-Hangzhou Martial Arts Academy. I don't know why, but I think it's for the martial arts tournament in a month. ”

may have felt that the matter of the martial artist was too far away from the young master of the Shen family, so Luo Lao also said it one by one.

On the other hand, after Shen Chen heard this, he was stunned.

Dean Xun? Isn't that the new apprentice he just accepted?
