The hunters began to dismember the three dead mammoths, and the ivory was an important evidence of the bounty from the Jiangxia County Civil Affairs Department, so they prioritized sawing the ivory and wrapping it carefully; Then there are the mammoth pelts, and the whole mammoth fur can be sold for a good price at the fur merchants in Jiangxia County; Finally, elephant meat, although elephant meat is much more difficult to eat than beef and mutton, but after all, it is meat, who cares about this when there is a shortage of food?

By the time the hunters had packed the ivory, fur, and elephant meat, it was already nightfall, and there were only three huge skeletons left on the edge of the small stone pool, and they lit torches made of pine branches soaked in elephant oil extracted from mammoth fat and began to rush to the night, and there was still a day and two nights to return to the big stone mountain from the small stone pool, so it was the early morning of the third day when the hunting team returned to the big stone mountain village.

The village of Dashishan is shrouded in morning light.

"It's back! They're back! Sister-in-law Hui Rong carried a wet suit and trotted all the way back to the village from the raccoon stream to report the news, and Dashishan Village suddenly boiled. In the case of not many ways to live, the hunting team has become the largest source of income in the village, and every family is proud that their men can join the hunting team, but hunting is a dangerous chore after all, and if you don't do it, you will lose your life, so every time the men leave it is like a farewell, and every time the men return home safely is like a holiday.

"Brother, you're back!" The younger brother Tugu Fan, who was standing in the welcoming crowd, stepped forward and took a wild boar leg on Tuguhun on his shoulder, which Tuguhun hunted on the way back, enough for a week's worth of tooth sacrifice at home.

"Well," Spit Bone replied, swapping the remaining four bundled steel spears from his left shoulder to his right, "what's going on at home?" ”

"All right," the brother replied.

"You're not going to class today?" Tu Gu asked.

"Go, why don't you go first?" Spit bone domain.

The brothers, you and I are pulling the family routine, while walking along the village road to home, the village road on both sides of the road can be seen with dozens of independent small courtyards separated by wooden fences, the newly built Dashishan Village has begun to take shape, the yard of the Tugu family is located in the middle of the mountainside next to the old locust tree, far away the two of them saw their parents and two elders are standing at the door waiting for them, under the mountain wind, the father's empty right sleeve swings with the wind, looking at it makes people feel distressed.

After a while, the whole family happily ate a hearty breakfast before going their separate ways. He took a hot bath and changed into clean clothes, and then took two jars of plum wine and half a pork leg to the master's residence.

Because Hongyi made meritorious contributions in the battle of Wolf Valley, and in less than a year, he trained such a powerful apprentice as Tuguhun, which was obvious to all, so the village paid for Hongyi to enclose a large courtyard with stone walls on the top of the mountain, built two blue brick and red tile houses, and also equipped all kinds of furniture, and promised to ration Hongyi with 100 catties of corn and 50 catties of fresh meat every month as rations. In exchange, he had to teach his clansmen martial arts for free, and Hongyi readily agreed.

"Lunges elbow." In the distance, I heard the sound of the master shouting exercises.

"Hey!" The immature children's voices shouted in unison.

"Chop the ribs and beat them."

"Hah!" It's a uniform children's voice again.

Tu Guhun walked to the courtyard gate, gently pushed the wooden door open a gap, and he saw that Master Hongyi was leading more than a dozen children of different ages to practice military physical boxing.

"Huh? This is? Tu Gu Hun was very surprised to see the figure of his younger brother Tu Gu Fan, and at this time he was seriously following his master Hongyi to make movements.

"Okay, you spitting bones, tell me to go to a private school, and secretly come here to practice martial arts!" Tu Guhun scolded in a low voice.

"Brother Hun!" The little fat man Youxiong Le happened to see Tu Guhun peeking in from the crack in the door, and greeted him in a lost voice.

"Brother Hun is here!"

Tu Gu Fan's body shook slightly when he heard the sound, and when he turned his head sideways, he happened to meet Tu Gu Hun and his eyes, knowing that his secret martial arts practice had been revealed, he grinned, and simply broke the jar and turned his head to continue to make movements, pretending to ignore his brother Tu Gu Hun .

"Good boy, I'll talk to you about this when I get home!" Tugu pushed the door in anger and muttered under his mouth.

"Brother Hun came to see us!"

The child's active nature is now on full display, and the children's attention immediately shifts to vomiting all over their bodies, greeting their idols with their mouths, and even forgetting that they are practicing military boxing.

"Quiet! Keep the action going! Hongyi heard the noise behind him, turned around and said angrily.

Several of the children who took the lead stuck out their tongues and quickly turned their heads to re-put on their postures.

"Stop!" Hongyi ordered, and all the children immediately retracted.

"There is bear music!" Hongyi said by name.

"In!" The little fat man replied loudly.

"Good boy, come to the front of the team and lead everyone to beat the first and second sets of military body boxing five times in a row." Hongyi said.

"Yes!"

As you know, this is Master Hongyi's punishment for not abiding by the discipline of going out of the discipline.

Youxiong Le honestly walked to the front of the team and stood still, shouting in his mouth: "The first set of military body boxing, all of them have it, ready-"

More than a dozen children pulled out in unison.

"Lunge punch."

"Hey!"

"Throat-piercing bullet kick."

"Hah!"

The children's uniform movements, resolute eyes, and the faint murderous aura of the entire formation made Tu Gu feel joyful.

Hongyi made a gesture from afar, "Hun Qiu, come here!" ”

The two entered the hall one after another, and Tuguhun put the two jars of plum wine and half a pork leg on the table in his hand.

"Coming back?" Hongyi motioned for Tuguhun to sit down and speak.

"Well," Tugu replied, "By the way, Master, why is my brother Tugu Fan here?" ”

"Why can't your brother be here?" Hongyi smiled and asked, "Is it possible that you are allowed to practice martial arts, but your brother can't?" ”

"That's not what I mean," Tuguhun said, "I've already practiced martial arts, my parents want my younger brother to study hard, and he can find a way to live if he takes a college entrance exam or something in the future!" ”

"It's not a conflict," Hong Yi said, "Reading can increase knowledge, practicing martial arts can strengthen the body, do you want your brother to be a powerless nerd?" ”

He was hesitant to tell his parents about his brother's secret martial arts.

"Okay, okay, you can discuss your own family affairs, but I won't refuse if the Tugu Clan insists on coming. You won't be here today because of this, will you? Hongyi asked.

"Of course not," Tu Guhun said with a sneer, "I came to visit Master. ”

"Flim," Master smiled, "I guess you're having some problems again, right?" Didn't the hunt go well? Hong Yi asked as he opened the two cups on the table, then opened a jar of plum wine, filled them separately, and handed them a cup of Tuguhun .

"It's a little bit unsmooth!" Tu Gu said with some annoyance, he took a small sip of plum wine, and the sweet and sour liquid flowed from his mouth to his lungs, making him feel refreshed.

"Tell me about it?" Hongyi asked, taking a sip of his own wine.

Tuguhun then roughly described the process of hunting tusked mammoths in the Banna rainforest.

"Hmm," Hongyi nodded after listening, "Your vitality is depleting too quickly. ”

"Master, please give me some guidance." Spit bones and muddy road.

"This is an old problem for junior martial arts cultivators," Hong Yi replied, "I don't control the rhythm well in battle, I can't put it away freely, I don't know how to distribute my vitality reasonably, and sometimes I will use too much force and waste my vitality." ”

"What then?" Tu Guhun asked.

"There are not many ways to do this," Hong Yi said, "It also depends on the individual practitioner, first, to participate in actual combat more, to understand more about their own situation, and to increase their experience; Second, we must improve the realm, such as opening up the second pulse of appointment and supervision. ”

"Ren Du Second Pulse?" Tu Gu asked.

"That's right, open up the two veins of Ren Du, let the vitality run along the two veins of Ren Du, and form a large and small Zhoutian, which can make the vitality circulate and endless." Hongyi took a sip of plum wine and said.

"Then how can I get through the second vein of Ren Du?" Tu Guhun asked.

"This is another hurdle," Hongyi said, "Some people who practice martial arts are highly talented and can easily break through; Some talents are dull, and they can't break through in their lifetime of martial arts. ”

Tu Gu Hun said: "Master, I know that you are a martial arts master, so I believe that you must have broken through the second line of Ren Du a long time ago, so you can tell me how you broke through back then?" ”

"Hehe," Hong Yi smiled slightly, "This thing is really mysterious, there is almost no experience to learn from, everyone's environment is different, the talent is not the same, and the day after tomorrow is not the same, so the way to break through is not the same, I can only suggest that you go out to experience more, to paraphrase a jargon called 'walking the rivers and lakes', and find a suitable path of cultivation for yourself in the process of walking the rivers and lakes." ”

"Walking the rivers and lakes?" Tu Gu Hun was a little confused, "But where are the rivers and lakes?" ”

"Hehe," Hong Yi said with a smile, "I'm just making an analogy, in fact, what you're doing now is not bad, read more books, study more, practice more, and go down this road all the way, you won't be wrong!" ”

The two chatted while drinking, and before they knew it, it was noon, and they said goodbye to the master and went down the mountain.

When I went out, the children were playing in the yard, and when they saw Tuguhun going out, they immediately surrounded him, but his younger brother Tugufan was no longer in the yard.

"Brother Hun, give us a set of Tai Chi, you play it well." There was a bear flower whispering.

"Don't, I want to watch Brother Hun play Shaolin sticks, Brother Hun plays a good job." The little fat man has a bear to say.

The children chattered and argued again, and looked back at the master, who smiled and nodded.

"Okay, then I'll play a set of Shaolin stick tricks for you!" Tuguhun said.
