Chapter 4 Apprenticeship
Xiao Xiangzi brushed his sleeves away, obviously with no intention of accepting apprentices. Zhang Lei sighed helplessly: "If you want to gain a foothold in this world, you must become stronger, and only if you are strong enough will you not be trampled on." Zhang Lei's words drifted in the wind, and the people had ridden away from the tiger.
Everyone understands the principle of the jungle, if it weren't for Zhang Lei's rescue, I'm afraid I would have become a dinner for the beast, and next, I don't know where to go. I feel very lonely after coming to this strange world. I decided to go to the bamboo forest and find the old man, no matter what kind of person he is, I want to worship him as a teacher.
So, I walked back from memory, but every time I felt that I had walked to the previous place, I did not see the bamboo house, and in such uncertainty I went around three times, and finally stopped in front of the bamboo forest with a little dejection.
"How so. I smiled wryly.
The leaves rustled in my ears, and I shook my head and was about to leave. At this time, a deep voice floated into his ears from behind, "Young man, are you looking for an old man?"
I nodded happily, "Uncle, I want to worship you as a teacher." ”
"Oh, have you figured it out?" the old man appeared in front of me out of thin air from the empty space in front of me.
"Young man, come and sit down. ”
When the old man saw that I was stunned, he reminded me. I nodded and followed the old man into the house. The old man appeared out of thin air just now, it really scared me, it seems that the master is not wrong, this old man must be very good× the furnishings in the room are still the same, a table that is not very big, and a few bamboo chairs, a man similar to the man in the costume film, making wine and tea at the table and chair in the compound.
The old man said that his name was Leng Qing and he was a mute, according to the old man, he was the only one who lived here, and then he inadvertently saved Leng Qing. That day, the old man heard a movement in front of the hut, and saw a high-ranking creature attacking him, so he rescued him, and he had nowhere to go, so he took care of his life here.
During the conversation, I found that the old man was very good at talking, but there was a sense of vicissitudes between his words, and I suddenly thought of how this room suddenly appeared just now. According to the old man, it was a gossip array, and ordinary people couldn't get in at all. The gossip changes endlessly, and Lao Bobu's is the innate gossip formation.
"I was surprised that you were able to walk in last time, so I wanted to take you as an apprentice. ”
The old man took a sip of tea and said.
What the old man didn't know was that I just walked in by accident, and I didn't know anything about gossip. I immediately knelt down, "Junior's name is Li Yunfei, meet Master." ”
The master squinted and laughed, "You can't learn anything from the teacher." ”
"A teacher for one day, a teacher for life, Yunfei didn't complain. ”
I hugged my fists.
Master gave me a brief introduction to the distribution and characteristics of the nearby towns: to the north is the Cangxi Empire, a large country with a population of one million. The southern part (where we are) is a civilian area, which belongs to most of the ordinary people who have no martial arts, and of course there are a few strong people. The northwest is a place where strange beasts gather, and there are many dangers. To the east is the World Trade Alliance, a grand alliance that controls the economy of the entire continent.
After listening to Master's introduction for a long time, I also had a preliminary understanding of this world, and when I inquired about Xiaoxiangzi with Master, a trace of coldness flashed in Master's eyes, and it disappeared in an instant.
The master said that he didn't know him, but I always felt that the master knew Xiao Xiangzi, and there seemed to be some contradiction between the two.
Master introduced me to some basic martial arts moves, according to Master, the continent of gods and demons is a piece of peace, since the appearance of strange beasts, people began to study a variety of martial arts methods, gradually the rise of various sects in the world, martial arts moves are varied, martial artists, is the most in this world of the world, followed by demon cultivation, is a long-range combat people, because the ability is not as good as the martial arts, so many people choose martial artists, and the only thing that can distinguish the depth of strength is the true qi, the true qi is a gas naturally formed in the body of the martial artist and the demon cultivator, is the basis of the martial arts mind, the true qi is divided into 9 layers, each weight is extremely difficult to cultivate, the martial artist with strong true qi can shake the mountains and rivers, one to hundred.
It was getting dark, and Master said to take me out of the city to go around, I was very tired, where to go at night!
"Master, where are you going so late?"
"Just come with me. Master said without looking back. Where are you going so late, the master is such a weirdo. The mountains were overgrown with trees, and the moonlight was not enough to penetrate the dense foliage, so I followed Master one foot deeper and one foot shallow.
When I came to a relatively wide place, the master raised his right hand to signal me to stop, I just wanted to speak, the master covered my mouth, the master asked me to hide behind a big tree, and then look at the master, at this time standing between heaven and earth with my hands in my hands, there is a big feeling, the world is big, who else can I be.
The wind in the forest blew quietly on my face, and gradually sleepiness hit, and just when I was about to fall asleep, suddenly the wind blew fiercely, and I couldn't open my eyes. The wind came and went quickly, and when the wind subsided, I looked at Master again, and I almost scared my pee. I saw a blood-colored python coiled in front of the master, the python was as much as five meters in diameter, and there was a horn on the snake's head.
I have seen this kind of strange beast in the book, but I didn't expect to see the real thing now, how can I not be excited, and at the same time a little scared, fortunately, there is a master, I think the master should be able to deal with it. The book says that the python cultivated for a thousand years and transformed into a dragon, and the Jiaoxiu transformed into a dragon for a thousand years. Presumably, the creature in front of him was about to turn into a dragon, and he vaguely saw the feet of the dragon's abdomen.
The master did not move, the dragon stared at the master with a pair of copper bell-like eyes, a man and a beast were so deadlocked, then the master suddenly attacked, flew up in the air, and suddenly moved sideways and kicked the dragon in the head, and then saw that the dragon was kicked by the master and actually lost its center of gravity, and a huge snake head smashed down, and the snake head smashed right next to the tree where I was hiding.
I was stunned by this sudden change, at this moment the dragon has seen me, if he attacks, I think the master will not be able to save me, but the strange thing is that the dragon seems to be not interested in me, it shook its head, and swam towards the master, a few meters away the dragon suddenly accelerated, like a sharp arrow flew out, the master did not move, I secretly pinched a sweat for the master.
The imaginary scene of the master being knocked into the air did not appear, but only the place where the master was standing, and an afterimage was slowly dissipating. I didn't expect Master to be so powerful. Just when I was sighing at Master's speed, I heard a 'bang' and Master flew out.
It turned out that Jiaolong couldn't hit it with a blow, and threw the master away with his tail. In this way, one man and one beast fought for nearly an hour, and the victory and defeat were indistinguishable. Master suddenly came up to me with a backflip and said to Jiaolong, "Okay, let's stop for today." Looks like you're about to transform into a dragon, and I'm throwing in the towel. ”
I looked at the master in disbelief, and then looked at the dragon, the dragon seemed to understand the master's words, only to see it nodded at the master, and then went into the ground, the strange thing is that the ground is intact, if you don't see it with your own eyes, who would believe that just a moment ago, an old man and a dragon were fighting inseparable.
Master said that he and that Jiaolong had known each other for a long time, and Jiaolong, who had cultivated for thousands of years, just couldn't speak, but his IQ was much higher than that of ordinary people. I finally saw the strength of the master, and it seems that I did not worship the wrong master. After a day of tossing, I felt very tired, and after going back with Master, I hastily freshened up and fell asleep.
