Chapter 3: Ants
Wang Xiaoer Restaurant
The interior of the restaurant is innovative, and behind the counter, there is a variety of liquor.
The aroma of sake fills the entire shop.
After a while, the two of them were drunk.
I saw Xingji say drunkenly: "Senior, I don't know your name yet." ”
"The autumn wind is blowing, and the autumn wind is drunk for eternity. It's a pity that I'm old, and I don't have the heroism of my youth. ”
"My name is Starmark, I have been living in the mountains, I don't even know who my parents are, when I can remember, I was alone, often lying on the top of the mountain, looking up at the stars in the sky."
The autumn wind swayed his body. Pointing to the star marks with his finger, he said, "Intentionally, intentionally." ”
Xingji eyebrows locked: "I am very eager to enter the sect, but unfortunately, in addition to not having enough gold coins, I don't even have any cultivation." ”
"Oh? That's a bad thing. But don't be discouraged. ”
"Is there any hope for me?"
"Young man, you and I are in love, I can show you a way."
"What way?"
"Of course, you don't have to spend money to enter the path of the Water Lin Sect, are you interested?"
Starmark nodded vigorously.
"Although I am an old man, I am also the mentor of the Water Lin Sect. However, all the sects in the Shuilin Sect recognize the lineage, and each of these lineages has thousands of disciples. This Red Moon Pavilion is a vein of the wind, and there are 1,200 disciples; The Imperial Sword Pavilion is the first line of the Imperial Sword, with the largest number of people, with 1,300 people; There is also the Moyu Pavilion, which is a vein of trickery, and there are more than 1,000 people. There is also a vein, which is mainly based on physical arts, and I am naturally the mentor of this vein. ”
As soon as Xingji heard this, his interest came instantly, and he asked casually, "Then how many disciples do you have?" ”
"Twenty."
"Twenty?"
"Yes, twenty."
"Then they are all the leaders of the Water Lin Sect."
Qiu Fengyang laughed: "The Autumn Rain Pavilion in the previous martial arts conferences is at the bottom, but my apprentices are all the best in physical fitness, what are you fighting for?" Do you want to worship me as a teacher? ”
"But...... I only have a hundred gold coins. ”
Qiu Fengyang smiled: "This one meal of wine is enough!" ”
After Xingji heard this, a warmth suddenly welled up in his heart, and there was such a person who could accept him in the huge Ling Kite City, and his gratitude was overflowing.
Starmark stood up from his seat, and then knelt on the ground with a thud, he kowtowed respectfully to the autumn wind, and shouted Master!
There was a faint trace of tears in Xingji's eyes, and the grievances along the way seemed to turn into ashes in an instant.
Qiu Fengyang looked at the star mark with satisfaction, helped him up, and said, "Let's go, follow me into the Water Lin Sect!" ”
In front of the Purple Star Hall of the Water Lin Sect, the queue of 10,000 people was still full.
The autumn wind took the hand of the star mark, took a proud figure-eight step, and shuttled briskly from the crowd.
Starmark felt that his pace was a little too much to keep up.
In this long line, countless eyes were on this old and young man.
"Brother Nangong, look, it's that poor boy, he's back again. Who's that old man? ”
Nangong Chen said: "It seems to be a mentor of the Water Lin Sect. ”
Jin Wenbao snorted coldly: "Yes, he is indeed a mentor, but he is the most failed mentor in the history of the Water Lin Sect, he is Qiu Fengyang." ”
"Oh, it was him!"
Most of the people in the team didn't know Qiu Fengyang, and even from Nangong Chen's words, people remembered the name of the star mark in their hearts.
A poor boy, a waste boy who has no cultivation, and such a failed mentor, at this moment, the image of this old and young man has been deeply imprinted in the minds of these people.
"Then the waste has a master."
"It's like the most failed mentor, and it's really a scene of sympathy."
Qiu Feng raised his head high, walked with a figure-eight step and didn't pay attention to the gossip of others, but walked briskly towards the Purple Star Palace.
And the star mark, he raised his head and looked at these malicious eyes fiercely, his face full of determination!
Walking to the front of the Purple Star Palace, a woman with a peerless appearance was writing down the names of the students who signed up. A few men next to him put the gold coins they received into the wooden box behind them.
At this time, Qiu Fengyang walked in front of the woman and said to the people behind: "Please borrow a light, mine is very fast, just write a name." ”
The beautiful woman looked up at Qiu Fengyang and the young man behind her, and there was a slight look of doubt in the woman's eyes.
"Moon Dance Ji, I Qiu Fengyang accepted a disciple today, help me write down his name to the Autumn Rain Pavilion, his name is Star Trace, you can make a note, he has already passed the assessment, and there is no need to do any more tests."
"But Uncle Shi, do you want to talk to the sect master?"
"I'll just tell him myself when the time comes, you just have to make a note of it."
At this time, a deep sound came from inside the temple gate. "Senior brother, have you accepted another baby apprentice?" I saw a tall and majestic man walking out of the hall gate, the man was carrying two famous swords on his back, wearing a luxurious robe, full of grandmaster's bearing, and his face revealed a hint of banter.
"It's Senior Brother Jinsong, I'll accept such an apprentice this year, it's not as good as the thousands of disciples in your Imperial Sword Pavilion."
"Quickly write down the name of your Qiu Shibo's beloved apprentice, otherwise he will set another record in the Water Lin Sect this year, you said that no one wants to worship in the Autumn Rain Pavilion every year, and I have to find an apprentice myself."
This man's full sense of superiority made Starmark very unhappy. The autumn wind didn't care, and when he saw the name of the star mark falling on the paper, he took a figure-eight step and pulled the star mark and walked past Bai Jinsong.
Bai Jinsong snorted: "He has been the laughing stock of the Water Lin Sect for decades, but he still stays in the sect with a dead face, it is really a shame for the Water Lin Sect." ”
The autumn breeze and the stars passed through the Purple Star Palace, shuttled all the way along the deep paths in the courtyard, crossed the luxurious halls, passed through the buildings, and gradually the color of wealth and wealth slowly faded, and the scenery also seemed much darker.
"Master, aren't you angry that they are so disrespectful to you?"
"What's this, isn't it better to stay in this Water Lin Sect and endure these rumors than to sleep outside? You have to remember that people live for themselves, as long as you have a clear conscience in your heart and are worthy of yourself, what is the importance of other people's eyes? ”
Entering an antique courtyard, Qiu Fengyang pushed open the courtyard door, only to see a wide practice ground inside, in which about 20 young men and women were laughing and playing in the martial arts training ground.
When those people saw that the master was suddenly coming, they quickly stopped fighting, and all of them stood up in a smoke, and bowed to the autumn wind: "Master! ”
The men bowed as they stole a glance up at the star.
Qiu Feng waved his hand: "That's it, I brought you a little junior brother today, and I won't punish you if I am in a good mood for the teacher." Look at you, Master will become an exiled flock as soon as he leaves. ”
Those people let go of their restraints, and suddenly one of them shouted loudly: "We have a junior brother!" ”
"Welcome junior brother to join us in the Autumn Rain Pavilion!"
Everyone let go of their restraints and came to the side of the starmark, and they surrounded it and lifted it up.
"Master is happy to accept new apprentices, we have a little junior brother!"
Starmark looked overwhelmed and let them toss themselves around. Qiu Fengyang had a satisfied look on his face, and walked to the end of the martial arts training ground with a figure-eight step, he sat on an old chair and said to one of the disciples: "Yun Fei, go and make a pot of tea for the teacher." ”
"Yes, Master." Everyone put down the star mark, and one of the women in pink ran quickly to the kitchen.
Not long after, Murong Yunfei came to Qiu Fengyang's side with a cup of tea.
"Master, please have tea."
Qiu Fengyang nodded, then took a few sips of tea, and then said, "I found you a little junior brother today, you are not allowed to bully him." ”
One of the older men smiled and said, "Master, it's too late for us to love and care, how can we bully our little junior brother." ”
The man walked up to Xingji, patted Xingji's shoulder and said, "My name is Mu Siqi, I am your senior brother, just tell me if you have any needs in the future." ”
Starmark nodded, and arched his hand: "Meet Senior Brother, my name is Starmark!" ”
Mu Siqi waved his hand: "Hey, don't be so polite, this entire Shuilin Sect, only our Qiuyu Pavilion doesn't have to pay attention to so many rules." After that, Mu Siqi said again: "Little junior brother, let me introduce you to your senior brothers and sisters. ”
Mu Siqi walked up to a short and thin man and said, "This is your second senior brother, nicknamed Skinny Monkey, his name is Black-Bone Chicken." ”
The black-boned chicken smiled and beckoned to Starmark, which was considered a hello.
"This is the third Chen Wending, the fourth Huo Siyuan, the fifth Zhao Yuanyi, and the sixth Qi Xinbao......" After the introduction, he said to the woman beside Qiu Fengyang: "Your little senior sister Murong Yunfei." ”
Murong Yunfei Shi Ran walked to the side of the star mark, she leaned in front of the star mark, looked at the star mark carefully, and suddenly said: "I found that our little junior brother is definitely the most handsome in our Autumn Rain Pavilion except for the clothes he wears a little shabby!" ”
"Yo, little junior sister has a good eye, then who is more handsome than your wolf brother?"
"The wolf is just a piece of wood, how can we have a handsome junior brother?"
Mu Siqi quipped: "Then don't secretly run to the Red Moon Pavilion to have a private meeting in the future." ”
Murong Yunfei flew up and kicked at Mu Siqi: "Mu Siqi, you bastard, who went to the private meeting?" ”
There was a harmonious color on the martial arts training ground, and Xingji, looking at these honest senior brothers and sisters, the loneliness in his heart actually began to slowly fade.
Qiu Fengyang on the side suddenly coughed a few times and said, "You all know the star traces, so let me talk about the business." ”
The crowd stopped frolicking and stood quietly.
"Three months later, in order to welcome the new students, a freshman martial arts test will be held. Your junior brother has no foundation at all, so you should help him a lot and strive not to get hurt at the martial arts trial. Do you understand? ”
"Little junior brother has no foundation at all? This is quite dangerous, so it is better for you to tell the sect master, master, and don't let the little junior brother go. ”
Qiu Fengyang suddenly slapped the table: "Although our Qiu Yu Pavilion is not strong, it will never be a bad seed!" If the star mark of this martial arts test conference is not gone, won't it make people laugh at us. ”
I saw Qi Xinbao muttering in a low voice: "Anyway, we haven't been laughed at once or twice." ”
"What, Starmark, you come to the teacher's side."
"Yes, master!"
The black-bone chicken whispered in Xingji's ear: "Master, I want to see your talent and teach you exercises according to specific talents. ”
Starmark sighed, and came to the side of Autumn Breeze.
The kind old man reached out and placed his hand on Starmark's forehead, then closed his eyes.
A warm spiritual sense swam in the body of the star mark, and Qiu Feng's brows began to tighten more and more.
After a while, Qiu Fengyang opened his eyes, sighed, and said, "It's a pity, the bones are clear, but the pulse is flat, and the power of the five elements in the body is flat." Child, you have no talent, and your path of cultivation is very difficult! ”
The senior brothers and sisters present sighed and regretted for a while.
Qiu Fengyang smiled at the star mark: "However, you don't have to be discouraged, your bones are extremely tough compared to ordinary people, and your arm bones are more than ordinary people, perhaps, this is also where your talent lies." As a teacher, I thought that maybe there is a book of exercises suitable for you, Tiangang Ba Formula! ”
"Tiangang Hegemony Physique? This is an exercise that even the master has not practiced, so it will be too difficult for the junior brother. ”
", who said that if you can't practice the exercises for the teacher, the junior brother can't practice them?"
Star Scar asked, "Master, what kind of exercise is the Tiangang Ba Body Technique?" ”
"If you cultivate your physical body to the extreme, you can break through the limit and cultivate into the Immortal Thanos Body, but it will be extremely difficult to practice this Immortal Body, and it will take decades or even hundreds of years to practice this kind of exercise. However, everything is contingent and cannot be forced. This exercise is the main defense, and if practiced in three months, it can at least protect the physical body from harm to the greatest extent. ”
Murong Yunfei patted Xingji's shoulder and comforted: "Junior brother, don't be discouraged, if you can cultivate the Tiangang Hegemony Physique, at least fighting anyone will be five or five." ”
Qiu Fengyang smiled slightly: "That's right, okay, let's get here today, Mu Siqi, arrange a quiet courtyard for Starmark and rest early." ”
At nightfall, the star mark was arranged in a courtyard closer to the practice ground, and due to the scarcity of the number of apprentices in the Autumn Rain Pavilion over the years, each person could have a separate courtyard.
Starmark found a ladder and followed it to the roof, where it had always been a habit to lie in the place closest to the stars every night.
Looking at the starry sky, in addition to an inexplicable sense of closeness, you can also empty your mind.
Starmark lay under this starry sky and said to himself: "Master said that I don't have the talent of the five elements, and if I only rely on the Hegemonic Body Technique, I can only have the ability to protect myself on this continent. What should I do if I meet someone who needs my protection? ”
Suddenly, a red light faintly shone from the bones in Starmark's body, and a voice came from his inner body: "Boy, today I finally figured out your body, your talent belongs to the five elements, and your real talent is the endless space in your body!" ”
