Ling Chen looked at Du Kang in surprise, not understanding why he would say that.

"Old Du, did you know Ji Gang before?"

Du Kang nodded and said, "I think back then, when I was young, I went out to learn art and visited famous teachers everywhere. When I went to the residence of a hidden master, I found a person kneeling at the door, and he was Ji Gang. Ji Gang hoped that the hermit master could accept him as an apprentice and teach him advanced martial arts. However, the hermit master was unwilling, he thought that Ji Gang's character was not suitable for inheriting his martial arts. However, Ji Gang is a person who does not admit defeat easily, he knelt in front of the door of the hidden master for ten days without eating or drinking, and finally fainted due to exhaustion. ”

"I happened to be there at the time, and I couldn't bear to see him die, so I healed his body. Since then, he has been grateful to me and treated me like a friend. It's just that the good times don't last long. At that time, the hidden master actually fell in love with me and said that he would pass on what he had learned all his life to me. This is tantamount to a heavy blow to Ji Gang. Although he didn't say it, I could clearly sense his alienation from me. Soon after, Ji Gang said goodbye to me, saying that he would continue to visit famous teachers. Wait until the two of us are successful in learning, and then come to learn martial arts and compete with each other. ”

"After Ji Gang left, I have been staying with my master to practice martial arts, and it has been more than 20 years in the blink of an eye. Until I was in my forties, I didn't see Ji Gang again. However, when I was walking in the martial arts, I heard a lot of rumors about Ji Gang. After Ji Gang left the school, he immediately challenged the heads of various sects, and almost none of them were defeated, and even some hidden masters were not his opponents. It's just that Ji Gang is very vicious, but anyone who loses in his hands will either have his arm cut off or have his martial arts abolished, without exception. ”

Because of this, people in the martial arts are extremely afraid of Ji Gang, especially those who are strong in martial arts, for fear that Ji Gang will come to the door to challenge. Suddenly, Ji Gang became a frightening demon. Although I haven't seen him for decades, I want to persuade Ji Gang with the friendship back then, hoping that he can change. It didn't take long for me to find Ji Gang through a friend in the martial arts and persuade him with good words. However, I was still too naΓ―ve. I thought that Ji Gang was still the same Ji Gang back then. Who knows, more than twenty years is enough time to change a person's heart. ”

"When I persuaded Ji Gang, Ji Gang made a request, hoping to compete with me. If I win, he will follow my advice and never hurt anyone's life again. In a merciful heart, I agreed to his request and tried to persuade him to do my best to do good. ”

Speaking of this, Du Kang took a sip of wine and sighed, "It's a pity...... I underestimated Ji Gang's strength, or rather, I believed too much in the friendship back then. In that battle, I tried to keep my hands and didn't use all my strength. However, Ji Gang did not have the slightest intention of showing mercy to his subordinates. Finally, at the time of one hundred and thirty moves, I was forced out of my anger and adopted a two-way move. However, at the last minute of the move, I chose to give up. But what I didn't expect was that instead of keeping my hand, Ji Gang took the opportunity to seriously injure me and almost lost my life. ”

"Since then, I have known that Ji Gang is no longer the Ji Gang who calls me a brother, he has completely changed as a person. Fortunately, I was seriously injured at that time and was rescued by a disciple of Tianji Pavilion who was passing by, and I was able to pick up a life. However, due to the severity of the injury, he was left with a hidden illness that had to be suppressed by alcohol. Because of this, I got the title of the fairy of wine. ”

After listening to Du Kang's story, Ling Chen said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect Ji Gang to be so insidious and ruthless. ”

"Knowing people and faces but not knowing hearts, it's me who has looked away. For this, I paid a terrible price. Therefore, the reason why I am willing to help you this time is to repay your kindness to Tianji Pavilion, and secondly, to break off the grievances of the year. ”

After a pause, Du Kang continued: "Ji Gang has a very strong personality, and he thinks first no matter what he does. He can pay any price for this goal. I suspect that this must be the reason why he was willing to cooperate with God's organization. ”

"For what, to be number one?"

Du Kang nodded and said, "As far as I know, Ji Gang once lost to one person, and it was a fiasco. Since then, he has been lost from news and his whereabouts are erratic, and he is believed to have joined the organization of God at that time. ”

Ling Chen asked curiously, "Lost to whom?"

"That man...... You won't know that that person is too far away for you now. What I can tell you, though, is that guy is in the top five of the Heavenly Rankings. ”

Hearing this, Ling Chen secretly exclaimed.

The top five masters on the list!

Indeed, this kind of person is too far away from him.

"Du Lao. Ling Chen changed his words and asked, "Then what are your rankings on the Heavenly List?"

"Me? I'm similar to Ji Gang, both of whom belong to the bottom of the list. A few years ago, there were less than five people on the heavenly list, but now the heavenly list is already full. It can be seen that there are many masters hidden in Huaxia Kingdom. In my opinion, the number of masters on the Heavenly List must be more than ten people on the Heavenly List, there are more, but they are just unwilling to be born. Ling Chen, you are still young, the future is promising, as long as you calm down and cultivate well, sooner or later there will be your name on the heavenly list. ”

Ling Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Old Du, don't say that, I'm not self-motivated, as long as I can enjoy life comfortably." For people like me, it's better to stay in the world of flowers. ”

Du Kang took a sip of wine, shook his head with a smile and said, "There are many things that you can't decide, maybe you don't want to do them, but the reality forces you to do them." ”

"We'll talk about that then. Du Lao, come, drink!"

After pouring two bowls of Moutai wine in a row, Ling Chen's face was flushed with a hint of wine red, and there was a hint of drunkenness in his eyes.

Seeing Ling Chen's appearance, Du Lao smiled slightly: "Your alcohol consumption is not good, you still need to exercise more." ”

"That is, you are a fairy in wine, how can you compare with your old age, I can drink at most one bottle of this wine, no more. Speaking of this, Ling Chen suddenly thought of something, and asked with the strength of wine: "Old Du, there is something I want to ask, I went to Yangxin Pavilion that day, why did Huang Zheng and Liang Tian rush to accept me as an apprentice?"

Du Kang smiled meaningfully: "They robbed you as an apprentice, naturally for the sake of benefit." As for what the benefits are...... You're not from the Heart Cultivation Pavilion, so it's inconvenient for me to tell you. Don't ask, you didn't agree to their request anyway, and you better not know about those things. Moreover, it is better if you don't participate, so as not to lose your life when you get it. ”
