Chapter 68: Greed
The clouds were gone, the sky was blue, and the light was pouring down.
People listened quietly, and only the voice of the young man Qingyue echoed in the empty field.
Not far away, the middle-aged elder who was replaced by Lu Qiming on the spot finally settled down.
At the beginning, when he heard Lu Xuantong's whim-of-the-moment order, he was both worried and helpless - it was not a matter of face; being a teacher would not have any loss to him, but for those children, it was not necessarily......
The family has always been extremely cautious and strict in determining the candidates for martial master-level mentors - at least to be Xiao Zhoutian for more than ten years, to be good at fighting, and to have the experience of teaching in "clan studies...... It's all about ensuring that the guidance given to the younger generations is accurate. After all, the number of martial artists in the family is the largest and the backbone.
Lu Qiming's talent is undoubted, but the conditions of the mentor are not met;
What the middle-aged elders thought before is also the voice of most people.
However, after the first martial artist came to power, the doubts in people's eyes disappeared, and as time went on, people only became more and more amazed, and later on, many people even took it as an opportunity to learn on their own.
The middle-aged elder couldn't help but think of a joke that was widely circulated -- Once upon a time, there was a young man who was pretentious and did not respect his teacher, and said wildly, "If you don't have enough experience, you should make up for it with talent." The consequence was that Jiang Lang was exhausted and lost to everyone.
But at this moment, he looked at Lu Qiming in the field, and sighed in his heart - if the same sentence is put on different people, is it still a joke?
......
In the stands, Lu Xingzhi and Lu Xuantong sat side by side, and Lu Yuankong sat under the two.
Lu Xuantong smiled and said, "Okay, your good grandson!"
Lu Xingyi has always been unsmiling, and he can't help but smile at this time, "Qiming has never disappointed. β
"The blessing of the family, the blessing of the family!" Lu Yuankong on the side shook his head and sighed, and suddenly said, "Let me say, Qiming is a good person and talent, and he is the 'young master' position!"
Lu Xingzhi glanced at him lightly, doubts flashed in his heart, and he said quietly: "No." It is not appropriate to set a precedent in this matter. β
On the contrary, Lu Xuantong was obviously a little moved, but he was too elder, so he was not suitable for interfering too much in specific affairs, so he said, "Let's take a look." β
Lu Yuankong laughed, as if he was really just saying it casually. He glanced at Lu Qiming, recalled the previous scene, and smiled at Lu Xuantong: "But Qiming's comprehension is indeed outstanding-just now you pointed out casually, and there was such an amazing progress...... Enlighten him, now all he lacks is experience. β
Lu Xuantong nodded his head, and after Lu Yuankong said this, he suddenly remembered the Jingyi Pavilion in the clan.
The Jingyi Pavilion is different from the Library Pavilion, and it is full of martial arts insights from high-level cultivators, most of which are written by the Great Zhou Tianβthis is the most precious inheritance of the family.
Generally speaking, only the clansmen above the senior level of Xiao Zhou Tian were allowed to enter, but occasionally made exceptions for geniuses - for example, Lu Qiming's father, Lu Zhan, had entered when he was a junior Xiao Zhou Tian.
Lu Xuantong looked at Lu Qiming in the field and had an idea in his heart.
......
In the past, Lu Qiming could not practice fighting too often due to his physical condition, but because of this, he had a lot of time to read a lot of books, and with his memory, all the exercises and martial arts in the library were stored in his heart.
What's more, people didn't know that his spiritual power had reached the height of the Great Zhou Tian, and at this time, it was naturally easy for him to guide the martial artists.
The next person who stepped forward was a handsome young man with a calm temperament. He seriously gave Lu Qiming a teacher salute according to the rules, but the look in his eyes was very complicated.
Lu Qiming looked natural, as if the two had just met on the road on weekdays. He calmly accepted the young man's salute, bowed his head slightly with the courtesy of brothers, and smiled: "Big brother, please." β
This young man is Lu Jincheng, Lu Ziqi's biological brother, and the eldest grandson of the Lu family.
Seeing this scene, everyone is not surprised - Lu Qiming and Lu Jincheng are brothers of the same lineage, and when they meet, they are different from the rest of their cousins. But thinking that the recent glorious affairs of the Lu family have nothing to do with him, and he has to pay a salute to his familiar cousin at this moment, people can't help but feel embarrassed for Lu Jincheng.
Indeed it is.
Lu Jincheng's feelings at this moment in his heart were so many that even he could not describe them.
As the eldest grandson, he was born with heavier responsibilities and pressures than his peers. He knew this from an early age, and he worked harder, never slacking off. But even though he tried his best, he was gradually caught up by Lu Qiming, Lu Wenbin, Lu Kai, and more people.
He always felt like a failure, just like his father.
And he, Lu Ziqi and Lu Qiming grew up together since childhood, although they are only cousins, they are no different from brothers emotionally.
Lu Jincheng sincerely regards Lu Qiming as his younger brother, sincerely hopes that Lu Qiming is good, and is sincerely happy for Lu Qiming's achievements.
However, he also sincerely hopes that this scene has never happened.
That's it. Lu Jincheng sighed silently, trying his best to dispel those unnecessary emotions and return to his state of mind.
Lu Jincheng tightened his hand holding the sword and nodded slightly to Lu Qiming.
He could only say to himself repeatedly in his heart, "Focus on what's in front of you." β
......
Lu Qiming used his spiritual power to secretly sense the fluctuations of Lu Jincheng's aura and internal force.
He knew that Lu Jincheng had reached the ultimate of martial arts in all aspects, and he was only one line away from breaking through Xiao Zhoutian, and he wanted to see if he could do it.
But it depends on what kind of martial arts Lu Jincheng used this time, Lu Qiming watched intently.
At the same moment, Lu Jincheng raised his hand and drew his sword-
The hand is three inches in front of the chest, and the initial momentum is dignified - this is the second style of Tai'a swordsmanship.
Lu Qiming sighed in his heart, Lu Jincheng's sword was opened very steadily, which was in line with his character, but Tai'a's swordsmanship was "mighty" and needed to have imperial spirit, and Lu Jincheng's use of it was inevitably a little insufficient.
Lu Qiming had an idea in his heart, and at this moment, Lu Jincheng's sword style was still in its infancy.
Lu Qiming condensed his spiritual power around Lu Jincheng, but he didn't get close. He recalled the essence of Tai'a's swordsmanship, and quickly simulated the most suitable solution for Lu Jincheng's character in his heart......
Lu Jincheng held the sword with a heavy heart.
It was just noon, the sun was excellent, his surroundings were open, there was no one in the afterglow, and Lu Qiming's peaceful expression in front of him also infected him, as if this was just a weekday exchange between the two.
Lu Jincheng's eyebrows stretched, and he felt more and more sunny.
At a certain moment, he suddenly felt something in his heart--Why do you have to ask for that fierce and domineering spirit? There are thousands of understandings of swordsmanship, and he can also go his own way.
Lu Jinchengjian's trend naturally changed according to his mind, and at the same time, his whole person's momentum suddenly showed up-
Naturally calm, righteous and bright.
Lu Qiming's eyes lit up, and he said in a very good mood: "Come again!"
Lu Jincheng was even more overjoyed in his heart -- this was his best performance! Not only that, but he also seemed to have some feelings about that layer of barriers!
......
On the high platform, Lu Xuantong shook his head and smiled: "Incompetent, incompetent, this kid is eccentric!" He was obviously aware of Lu Qiming's movements.
Lu Xingzhi and Lu Yuankong didn't feel anything, and Lu Yuankong asked.
Lu Xuantong said strangely: "Didn't you even find out?" But he knew Lu Qiming's intentions, so he didn't explain anymore, and only smiled with satisfaction: "Good boy......"
After a pause, Lu Xuantong was relieved again: "Look at it, our Lu family will soon have another new Xiao Zhoutian!"
Sure enough, as soon as the three moves passed, the fluctuation of Lu Jincheng's cultivation was already extremely obvious, and he hurriedly went back to retreat, and there were constant joys around him.
Except for Lu Xuantong, none of the people found Lu Qiming's "small actions", and only admired that the luck of the Lu family was too strong......
......
Two hours after the luncheon, the martial arts display of the martial artists was nearing the end.
Lu Xuantong looked at the yellow-shirted girl who had just come to the stage, frowned and asked, "She is the child whose qualifications are second only to Qiming?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, Lu Xuantong frowned even deeper, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart: "How can you be a first-order martial artist?
In fact, this is also Lu Qiming's heart, how to make Lu Ziqi work harder has always been one of his biggest headaches.
Lu Ziqi himself didn't feel it at all. She stepped briskly on the stage, happily saluted Lu Qiming, and said in a crisp voice: "Brother!"
Lu Qiming immediately smiled back, and when he saw her little apple-like face, the determination that had just been firm instantly softened. He thought with a wry smile, "That's it, Xiao Qi'er is still young, I'll talk about it later...... No one would dare to bully her anyway......"
Lu Qiming shook his head and smiled a little helplessly: "Xiao Qi'er, let's start." β
Lu Ziqi stuck out his tongue with some confidence, and stretched out the hand behind his back - with two small steamed bun-like fists!
There was an instant silence around - everyone looked at this delicate girl in amazement. The sharp-eyed immediately whispered - isn't this the dragon power fist that was auctioned a few days ago?!
They already felt that "Lu Qiming bought Longli boxing gloves" was discordant enough; who knew that it was actually bought for Lu Ziqi, a little girl?!
The only person who wasn't surprised was at the seat of the Tatsu family - Tatsumi involuntarily touched his left eye, and his face suddenly turned red inexplicably......
The corners of Lu Qiming's eyebrows jumped, and he couldn't cry or laugh -- this girl, don't look at what kind of occasion this is? Even if she takes this boxing glove to eat and sleep, it has only been touched for seven days...... Why, aren't you afraid of being scolded by your elders?
Lu Ziqi was seen by people as weak-hearted, muttering "start early and finish early", gritted his teeth, and rushed out quickly with a fist-
King Kong Dragon Tiger Fist!
The surrounding audience couldn't help but let out a burst of good-natured laughter - this is clearly a masculine boxing technique, most men can't practice it well, let alone such a delicate little girl?
Lu Qiming didn't laugh, he looked at Lu Ziqi's boxing technique, and was surprised in his heart -- Lu Ziqi is not only not bad, but can be said to be excellent and profound! To be able to do this in such a short period of time, Lu Ziqi's talent in boxing is really excellent!
Lu Qiming's expression instantly became serious-since this is the case, he naturally has to guide him well as an elder brother.
As for whether Lu Ziqi can marry in the future, Lu Qiming never thought about it-if Xiao Qi'er fell in love with someone, just say - see who dares not to marry!
Lu Ziqi actually thinks it's weird for girls to practice boxing, but somehow, she just likes it!
The punching technique went straight and straight, and when it was knocked down, it was called a hearty and refreshing feeling......
This scene made others look very surprised, everyone present had eyesight, and they could see that Lu Ziqi's King Kong Dragon and Tiger Fist was really excellent - even ranked in the top three among martial artists!
In the stands, Lu Mingyue touched her big bald head and said in shock: "Talent! My little cousin is really a man!"
On the other side, Lu Xuantong's expression also softened, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "This little girl, the momentum is overwhelming!" He smiled and said, "It's really a cute little girl......
......
The sun is shaking, and when the curtain is about to come to an end on this wonderful day, Elder Taishang announced an even more exciting news - the top three in the comprehensive results of the clan competition can enter the Jingyi Pavilion to have a look!
Unexpected, reasonable.
It is conceivable that tomorrow's battle will be more intense!
It's also more exciting.
......
The crowd dispersed.
Lu Qiming was about to return to the hospital, but suddenly saw Lu Zai walking in his direction with an uncertain expression.
There was no one else around--Lu Qiming raised his eyebrows--When did this uncle take the initiative to talk to him?
Lu Zai stood still in front of Lu Qiming, his face was very complicated, but he didn't speak immediately, as if he was hesitating about something.
Lu Qiming smiled and said, "Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Unexpectedly, Lu Zai's face immediately became gloomy, and he said angrily: "Enough!
Lu Qiming frowned: "What do you mean?"
Lu Zai snorted coldly, turned around and left, and sighed after taking two steps, and said in a low voice: "No matter what you want to do, don't be insatiable!"
