"How? Have you made up your mind? My Ma's knife technique is the most practical and domineering one of the sword techniques of each faction, if it weren't for the end of the world, I would never teach you casually, you can be regarded as picking up a big bargain. ”

The old man surnamed Ma touched his beard and said slowly.

Zhou Xuan had already changed his mind at this time, no matter what the old man's knife skills were, just looking at the long and heavy two-handed knife in his hand, it was by no means comparable to that ordinary katana, and it was definitely the most suitable to use this kind of knife to deal with monsters such as blood corpses.

The hammer is too bulky and the spear has limited lethality, and this two-handed knife can stab, split, sharpen, and block, and is definitely much more practical than other weapons.

"The younger generation is willing to inherit the mantle of the predecessors!" Zhou turned around and bowed to the old man.

The old man smiled and bowed: "Hmm! Yes, even if you are a kid, kowtow to the sect master first, and obey the authority in a hurry, and other courtesies can be waived. ”

Zhou Xuan rubbed three incense sticks on the table, lit them with a lighter, and inserted them into the incense burner on the case.

He kowtowed respectfully to the portrait, stood up, and bowed to the old man next to him.

"Master, please accept my worship!"

The old man waved his hand: "Okay!" Hurry up, I don't have so many rules here, this long knife is called 'Broken Stream', it is the infantry weapon used by Marshal Qi back then, and it is also a treasure passed down from generation to generation in my Ma family, the old man will keep it for you first, and when you complete the knife study, it will naturally be handed over to you to use. ”

Zhou Xuanxi said: "Thank you, master!" ”

The old man didn't like it and said: "Don't take a bite of a master, I don't pay attention to these, my name is Ma Deyuan, you can call me Lao Ma in the future!" ”

"Got it, master......"

Ma Deyuan glared, and Zhou Xuan immediately changed his words: "Got it, old horse!" ”

"That's it! You sit and wait for a while, and I'll go with you when I pack up for the teacher. ”

After Ma Deyuan finished speaking, he went to the bedroom, leaving Zhou Xuan alone in the living room, suffering from gains and losses, and only felt that the experience just now was like a dream.

Although he was bragged by the old man for a while, he recognized a master in a daze, but the strength of this master has yet to be certified. With the knife just now, he was somewhat unconvinced.

Zhou Xuan has never had any contact with the martial arts world, and naturally knows very little about domestic masters, schools, and martial artists.

Zhou Xuan was thinking nonsense in the living room, Ma Deyuan had already packed up his belongings, took down the portrait of Qi Jiguang from the wall, rolled it up and put it in the baggage.

"Let's go!" The old man waved his hand, glanced nostalgically at the room, and turned to walk outside.

Zhou Xuan followed, and asked behind him, "Master...... No, old horse! Are you alone at home? What about Shi Niang? ”

The old man paused when he heard this, and sighed: "Your master has passed away a long time ago, and I am alone at home, right!" There is also a nineteen-year-old granddaughter who attends college in Beijing. ”

Zhou Xuan felt heavy: "How is she now?" Do you have any news of her? ”

Ma Deyuan nodded as he walked: "Yes, she called half a month ago and said that she was taken in by an old friend of mine." ”

"Is that old friend of yours also a senior in the martial arts world?" Zhou Xuan thought that if the old man's friend was also a martial arts senior, the old man's granddaughter might still be alive by now.

"Of course, how can the friends you and I make be unknown people? Brat! Ever heard of the Yang family gun? Ma Deyuan turned around and asked, with a hint of heroism on his face.

Zhou Xuan hurriedly nodded: "I've heard of the marksmanship that the Yang family will use!" It is often performed in TV dramas. ”

Ma Deyuan snorted and scolded: "What kind of bullshit TV opera, the Yang family's pear flower gun is the top school of marksmanship, do you think it's those bells and whistles on TV?" ”

Zhou Xuan lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything, this old man had a big temper.

Seeing that Zhou Xuan didn't talk back to him, Ma Deyuan nodded with satisfaction and continued:

"My old friend's surname is Wei, is the fifty-first generation of the Yang family gun, his marksmanship, is more than a hundred years ago, his ancestors learned from the Du family, the Du ancestors once took care of Yang Wulang who was defeated in the first battle of Golden Beach, this set of 72 pear flower guns, Yang Wulang personally passed on to the Du ancestors."

Zhou Xuan has seen it, and originally thought that these were all made up in the story, but I didn't expect that in reality, there is really this kung fu.

Xiao Manxue, who was waiting at the gate of the community to thank all the flowers, finally saw Zhou Xuan coming back, but he was not alone, and he was followed by an old man with white hair and white beard and a cold face.

Xiao Manxue thought it was a survivor rescued by Zhou Xuan.

Who knew that Zhou Xuan walked up to her and suddenly said to the old man, "Master! This is my girlfriend Xiao Manxue. ”

Ma Deyuan looked at the girl in front of him, and his eyes lit up: "The kid is good!" Isn't this the same girl who won the Olympic title last year? How did you become your girlfriend? ”

Xiao Manxue heard Zhou Xuan call this old man's master, and first suddenly realized: It turned out that another important thing he said was to come to his master.

When she reacted, Zhou Xuan actually took advantage of her when she introduced, her face immediately turned red, and just about to argue, Zhou Xuan came over and quietly grabbed her hand, pinched it hard, and gave her a look.

Although Xiao Manxue didn't understand what it meant, she didn't continue.

"Let's see what the hell he's up to, and then I'll settle accounts with him later." Xiao Manxue thought secretly.

"Hello!" Xiao Manxue showed a rather sweet smile and nodded at the old man.

"Hmmm! Yes, yes, your game last year, my old man watched it, and the arrows were very good. Ma Deyuan couldn't stop bowing his head.

"Thank you! The younger generation is just lucky! Xiao Manxue is more modest.

Ma Deyuan suddenly turned his head to Zhou Xuan and said: "This girl knows much more politeness than you, who is like you, she does it to the old man at every turn, and she really doesn't understand the rules at all." ”

Zhou Xuan was dumbfounded, he was also shot while lying down, obviously he caught himself first, and he just struggled lightly.

Right! He wasn't lying, he really just struggled lightly, and he used three points of strength.

"Old horse! Don't you be unreasonable, you put a knife on my neck, and say I did it to you? "Strike back sharply.

"Who let you kid not know what to do, don't you want a master from the sky to give it to you!" Ma Deyuan was not to be outdone.

"You ......"

"That's it! The old man doesn't remember villains, and he doesn't know like your little doll, don't you say that there are still important things to do? Lead the way! ”

Xiao Manxue looked at the old and young quietly, and was a little confused.

Zhou Xuan was so angry that he couldn't speak, so he simply stopped paying attention to this old man, and walked out of the gate of the community directly, so as not to sit in front of Xiao Manxue and confirm his infamy for not knowing the rules.

"Isn't your important thing to pick up your master? Should we go back the way we came? Xiao Manxue caught up and asked.

Zhou Xuan looked at the old man who was behind the two of them, and said with a smile: "What picked up my master?" This master is the one I just recognized. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Manxue covered her mouth incredulously.

After a while, I couldn't help but wonder: "What the hell is going on?" ”

Zhou Xuan smiled bitterly: "It's hard to say!" I can't tell. ”

Xiao Manxue gritted her teeth and said: "If you don't know clearly, you just took advantage of me and said that I was your girlfriend, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet." ”

Zhou Xuan shook his head: "It's not that I want to take advantage of you, I'm thinking about you, do you know who this old man is?" ”

Xiao Manxue: "What person?" ”

"Qi Jiguang's heir!"

"Who is Qi Jiguang?"

"Holy!"

Zhou Xuan is about to collapse, is this girl's history class handed in by the physical education teacher? Don't even know the anti-Japanese hero Qi Jiguang?

At the moment, I only have patience, first popularize historical knowledge for the little girl, from how Qi Jiguang cheated, to how Ma Deyuan is the eleventh generation of the double knife stream, and then to how Ma Deyuan forced himself to apprentice Yunyun......

Xiao Manxue's eyes widened when she listened, and she was half incredulous.

"So, you are the twelfth generation of Qi Jiguang?"

Zhou Xuan nodded, Xiao Manxue snorted: "Even if what you said is true, what does it have to do with what you just said that I am your girlfriend?" ”

"It's a big deal!" Zhou Xuan looked back and whispered, "You want to!" I am Ma Deyuan's apprentice, if you are my girlfriend, even if he is half an apprentice daughter-in-law, when he teaches me, maybe he will teach you two tricks, if you have nothing to do with me, according to the door rules, this knife technique cannot be passed on, it will be difficult if you want to learn, understand? ”

Xiao Manxue nodded as if she didn't understand, and after that, she asked a very in-depth question, which stumped Zhou Xuan at once.

She asked, "Why am I only half of my apprentice's daughter-in-law, and the other half?" ”

Speechless......

"What are you two muttering in front? Aren't you saying bad things about my old man? Ma Deyuan spoke.

"Where? We are discussing, when I finish the business at hand, I will go to the capital to help your old man find his granddaughter, so that you don't have to worry about it all day long. ”

Zhou Xuan hurriedly responded, he was not casually perfunctory, he thought this in his heart, since he had worshiped him as a teacher, he should share his worries and solve problems for his master.

Xiao Manxue was surprised: "You really want to go to the capital?" ”

Zhou Xuan nodded.

Ma Deyuan was silent for a while, and laughed: "Okay! Count your kid still a little conscientious, and when I have some time, I'll teach you some basic moves of the double knife flow first. ”

Zhou Xuan was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, master...... No, thank you old horse! ”

After saying that, he rushed out, swept and smashed, and killed a few bloody corpses attracted by the old man's heroic laughter.

"Where the hell are we going? In front of it is Dongfeng Avenue. Xiao Manxue grabbed the spear and rushed up to ask.

Zhou Xuan pointed into the darkness with a hammer: "It's just ahead, it's coming soon." ”

The three of them walked all the way, and killed a lot of monsters on the way, and these monsters were basically all attracted by Ma Deyuan, because among the three, he had the greatest living aura.
