Six years later, in Monroe, Monroe wanted to be in a private school.

In the garden, an old man with a half-foot-long beard was holding a ring ruler in his hand and admonishing the group of little babies in front of him.

Why?

The reason is very simple, because this group of little babies took advantage of the old gentleman's outing, skipped class to catch fish fry in the small river next to the private school, and refused to admit their guilt and shield each other after being discovered by him, and even put forward the excuse that a student fell into the river and they went to rescue him. The old gentleman was so angry that he broke off the branch as a ring ruler on the spot, and scolded them loudly with a red face, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he could absorb the river water in one bite.

And after seeing Mr.'s cannibalistic posture, this group of little babies had to confess the reason and admit their mistakes on the spot, which made Mr. half of his anger disappear.

In order to prevent this group of them from sincerely admitting their mistakes and dying, the old gentleman decided to give them a certain punishment as a warning, and this was the beginning of the scene.

"Master... Pedant! Grandpa Lee! We know it's wrong, so you can spare us, I can't hold on. ”

I don't know if it's because the sun is too fierce, which caused this group of little babies to work hard for a while, and they were already sweating profusely. Especially that face, it is not as good as the monkey ass. One of them, in fact, was seven years old, but his physique could be compared with that of a teenager.

Seeing the man begging for mercy, the rest of the little babies began to wail, and for a moment the whole garden was like a prison filled with the sounds of torture and wailing.

"Humph! Little rabbit cub, is it okay, the old man still doesn't know? Less in this set! Another half a pillar of incense time! Don't be lazy! ”

The old gentleman deserves to be called an old gentleman, and as soon as these words fell, the wailing of the entire garden came to an abrupt end.

After a few more breaths, the old gentleman saw that no one had any complaints, but a few people showed aggrieved looks, and couldn't help but soften their hearts.

"It's a child, after all."

The old gentleman thought so, so he brought a small stool and sat down beside him to supervise it.

The sun became more and more violent, and the scorching sun scorched the young faces of the babies, and beads of sweat the size of beans poured across their cheeks like money, dripping from their chins and slipping through their necks, all of which soaked through their clothes. But even so, a dozen or so six- or seven-year-old children, even if their cheeks were red or their feet were shaking, they insisted on not falling.

The gentleman looked at the burning pillar of incense, only a quarter had passed, and there was still more time, but he couldn't hold back his words anymore, so he looked at the students in front of him and coughed lightly: "Ahem." ”

"Do you know why you are allowed to take a step every time you are punished?"

The old gentleman sat beside him, and when he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and looked like he was waiting to be asked. But after a few breaths, there was still no response in the garden. Thinking that he hadn't heard, he quietly half-opened his right eye, and saw that the students were still blushing and walking steadily, the old gentleman pursed his lips slightly embarrassed, closed his eyes, took a breath, and repeated:

"DID YOU KNOW?!"

One breath...

"Report to the master, the disciple doesn't know!"

As if he couldn't stand the old gentleman's childlike temper, a group of little babies dragged out of their mouths word by word with a weak voice.

"Hmm." The old gentleman who heard the reply was very satisfied, nodded proudly, stood up and said:

"This is to stabilize your foundations."

"Huh?" "Foundation?" "What is a foundation?"

When a sentence was spoken, the whole garden became lively, and more than a dozen small voices rushed to ask what it meant.

The old gentleman snickered with fun, but still put on a serious look, and waved his hand to signal quiet. After the students quieted down and tied their horses, the old gentleman stroked his beard with satisfaction:

"The so-called foundation is just a metaphor, laying a solid foundation, also translated as cultivating dantian. This dantian is the place three inches below your umbilicus, the place where the essence is hidden, and it is the necessary acupuncture point for those who cultivate ability in the future. ”

The old gentleman stroked his beard and nodded his head.

"Master, what is a capable person?"

Just as the old gentleman was about to get up to quench his thirst, a little baby blushed and squeezed out such a question from his mouth, which immediately stopped the old gentleman. He first turned his head to look at the student, then hissed and turned around with his body, and asked with an incredulous expression:

"What is a capable person, didn't the old man explain it before?"

"Nope!" "Master, you said last time that the time had not come, so tell us to wait for the next time!"

Seeing that they didn't look like they were joking, the old gentleman couldn't excuse himself, and after waving his sleeves, he said, "Ah, yes, yes, now is the time." When the old man comes to drink saliva, he will explain to you. ”

He gestured inside, then rolled up his sleeves and walked inside. After a while, he came out with a cup, took a sip of tea, put it on the stool, cleared his throat, and said:

"According to legend, in the primeval years, our Lingzhou continent was still connected. At that time, in the Lingzhou Continent, monsters were rampant, disasters were continuous, and wherever the monsters passed, no one survived and there was no grass. At that time, the weapons in the hands of human beings were only freshly picked up stones or wooden sticks, and even the clothes were spliced from the leaves picked from the trees. Therefore, the meaning of the people's existence at that time was to serve as part of the food of the demon beasts.

Later, I don't know if it was, the wanton rampage of the demon beasts angered the gods, or the results of the people on the land praying for the blessings of the heavens, one day there were four humans who had the power of the gods and could compete with the demon beasts, and the people at that time thought that they were the messengers sent by the gods to save mankind, so they worshiped them one after another.

But a pot of porridge is difficult to divide a monk, there are only four divine envoys, but there are too many ordinary people in the Lingzhou Continent to count, and there are many demon beasts, but where there are a few will go together, these divine envoys are all going back to the divine realm, so they decided to teach more people how to master the power of the gods, so that in this way, there will be more people who can resist the demon beasts, and even if there is a great tide of demon beasts, the human race will not be extinct.

So, these four divine envoys began the journey of preaching and teaching confusion and solving karma, starting from the eastern continent, all the way to the west, and in addition to preaching, they cleaned up the demon beasts. In this way, the number of people who have mastered the power of God has expanded from zero to 100 and then to thousands, and finally along the entire Lingzhou Continent, at least half of the people have mastered the power of God.

After that, human beings began to compete with the demon beasts, and were no longer in dire straits due to their dangers, so that the people could live and work in peace and contentment, and only then did they begin to divide the tribes and establish various countries and city-states. And the first four orais, after completing the westward preaching, disappeared without a trace, and the people at that time said, ah, this is the completion of the mission, back to the heavenly realm.

After thousands of years, the power of the gods was also renamed the battle power, and the people who had the war power began to be divided into the power. This capable person, at that time, some joined the army to defend the country, some formed gangs to form forces, and some traveled incognito. Anyway, what do you want.

Later, because the number of capable people who joined the army every year was too small, some officials proposed to vigorously build a dojo to test the combat ability of boys and girls between the ages of six and ten every year, divide the combat ability level and attributes, register the information and keep files, so that when they reach adulthood, the state will select some of the people to join the army.

This programme has become a tradition since it was implemented and implemented. And this is the past and present life of the capable. ”

Before he finished speaking, the old gentleman picked up the water cup and brought it to his mouth, and as soon as he finished speaking, he sucked away half of the hot tea. With a long sigh, he looked into the distance, as if he was still immersed in ancient history, unable to extricate himself for a long time.

"Master."

"Master!"

After a few calls and no answer, the student began to shout by the neck, and finally woke up the old gentleman: "Ah, ah? What's the matter? ”

"Master, this matter has nothing to do with Zamabu!"

As soon as the words fell, Mr. Rao felt a little speechless, he hurriedly flicked his sleeves, signaled the classmates to be quiet, and then did not forget to glare at the classmate who spoke: "You talk a lot." ”

"What did the old man say just now, the dantian is the place where the essence is hidden, and this essence and spirit are the foundation of combat energy, if you want to give full play to and use combat energy, the cultivation and cultivation of this essence and spirit are indispensable. In the same way, the dantian in this place of hidden essence is also very important. ”

As soon as the explanation came out, all the students were relieved, and those who were still dissatisfied also stretched their brows, and the work under their feet was also a little more solid.

"Master, you said before that the time has not come, and now you have explained it to us in such detail, is it possible..."

Hearing this, the old gentleman suddenly quieted down, looked meaningfully at the child who asked the question in front of him, and nodded for a long time: "Yes, there are three more days, which are the days stipulated by the state, when boys and girls between the ages of six and ten go to the gym for testing, which is also the focus of the old man's words today."

After school ends today, you should ask your parents if they agree with your test in three days, and if they agree, they will practice well for the remaining three days, and if they have any objections, please return and drop out. ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire garden fell silent. Even young people like them knew that this conversation was particularly important, so they didn't dare to leave out a single word, and they took it to heart.

But in the next second, someone in the group of students shouted: "Master, the incense is burned." ”

Immediately, there was a commotion, and more than a dozen students fell to the ground, wailing all over the field.

Seeing this, the old gentleman was not in a position to say anything more, and thought of leaving the school, but he was surprised to find that there was still one person in the group of students who was still in the posture of Zamaga, and he approached to watch, but found that the boy had his eyes closed, his breathing was orderly, and he seemed to be asleep.

The old gentleman was so angry that he immediately started to use the ring ruler, but he found that there were other students around him watching, so he had to wave his sleeves and say, "Leave school!" ”

For a while, the students galloped away like wild horses on the loose.

Here, the old gentleman also rolled up his sleeves, and the old hand patted the boy's shoulder: "Baby, how can you sleep." ”

Seeing that the boy didn't react, the old gentleman clenched his shoulders and shook it: "Your age, how can you sleep at your age?!" ”
