What the nameless boy didn't expect was that before he got the answer, what he got was a question first.

"What is strong?"

The little giant asked.

"What is a strong ......?"

The boy was silent for a long time, and he was speechless for a while.

It's not that he doesn't know how to answer, but there are too many answers to this question - although he is still just a homeless person who has just found a place to live, the bloody experience that destroyed his family has also given him a lot of insight.

If there was no escape from the famine before, his whole family was still living a good life in Yangzhou, at that time, in his eyes, the gentleman of the academy would definitely be the strongest. As for why you think so...... Of course, it was because the gentleman of the academy would beat him with a ring ruler, and even beat him several times.

But later, he also saw that in the face of those officials who came to the door, even if it was a gentleman, he had to speak politely.

They're probably stronger, at least better than him.

At the time, he thought so.

But as the steppe people went south, everything changed, the husband died, and the officials also died, they once swore to defend the city, but in the face of the knife swung by the steppe people, they finally became corpses.

The steppe people are very strong, very powerful, I am afraid that no one in this world can cure them.

However, after that, these steppe people also lost, and their troops were defeated, and the appearance of retreating all the way was even more embarrassing than that of the outcasts, and those strong men wielding fierce blades only needed to wave their swords, and these routs would fall to the ground in pieces.

The Jianghu who can control the evil spirit is strong, and they can kill others casually, which is undoubtedly a strong proof.

But is that the only explanation?

In fact, it's not, after all, Jianghu Ke itself is a general title, and it is specific to each Jianghu Ke, but it is varied - like Wang Tonggong is the kind of family with a big business, like Hu Sanbian is superb, and like those Songzhou people will organize secret societies to help each other, and for example, Song Yan, the golden knife man who was killed before, was originally a bandit leader......

Everyone is so strong that they have their own origins, and they are so strong that they have their own reasons.

"Probably...... These are all strong, right? ”

After thinking about it, the young man simply said everything he thought of.

"It's better than me anyway."

"That's a big problem."

The little giant's brow furrowed slightly.

"How do you know that they're all better than you?"

"I ......"

The boy choked on the spot.

Do you still need to ask about this kind of thing?

Why are they all better than him? Of course, because they are just stronger than him. There is no need to ask about this kind of thing, it is an objective fact in front of us.

He has no family business, no skills, and no brother who can treat each other with all sincerity and is willing to help him, and he has no courage to be a traitor, let alone be a thief, he is just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who has nothing.

Who can an ordinary person with nothing be better than?

"Do you really have nothing?"

It was at this time that the little giant suddenly spoke.

This couldn't help but make the teenager slightly stunned.

He was obviously just thinking in his heart, but he didn't say it, how did this little giant know......

"Do you really have nothing?"

The little giant spoke again.

"Think again, think again."

"I ......"

The boy wanted to refute something, but suddenly saw the kitchen knife on the side of the board, and when he retracted his gaze, he met the eyes of the little giant in front of him.

The moment they looked at each other, the young man suddenly sweated.

It's too early, he doesn't seem to have nothing, at least if the little giant in front of him really picks up a kitchen knife, it seems that he can really cut dozens of catties of meat from him - although he was well taken care of by his parents and didn't come into contact with some shady things, but during this time he helped in the post station, facing those Jianghu people every day, but he also heard a lot of small stories like "not envious sheep" and "and bone rotten", which happened in the distance.

"I ...... There's still something about it. ”

The boy barely managed to squeeze out a smile.

Although he also knew that this little giant couldn't do such a thing, he still couldn't help but shudder a little when he saw the kitchen knife.

It also made him more and more frustrated.

He is just an ordinary person, a timid ordinary person, compared to those strong people, he has no ...... at all

"Knowing how to be afraid shows that you are sensitive enough to danger."

In front of the young man, the little giant actually nodded again and again.

"That's what I want to ask, the power of will, or rather, part of that power."

“…… Yes? ”

The young man was stunned.

It was the first time he had heard that someone could describe timidity so openly.

But if you think about it carefully, what this little giant said is actually right, it is precisely because he is timid enough that he can stay away from danger again and again, but if he is bold, he will be in the wilderness at his age, I am afraid that he will have become a corpse long ago.

But didn't he have the courage to do so?

It seems that there is, that was when he saw the big man with the golden sword, and that was the only time, he knew that he would definitely die, but he still stood up - although he already regretted it the moment he stood out, as an ordinary person, he was not qualified to do it with the master of evil qi at all, but he rushed up to do it as soon as his mind was hot, this is simply ......

"Oh, you said that."

Hearing the boy's chatter, the little giant spoke again.

"That's actually a good thing, it shows that you have sufficient execution, although your judgment and specific planning are still a little lacking, but at least you dare to do things and dare to stand up."

"Ah......h

The boy began to scratch his head.

It was the first time he had received such praise, and even the bad could be said to be good, and although he was grateful for the little giant's encouragement, it was a bit ...... no matter how he thought about it

What's more, he's here to ask questions, why did he suddenly talk about this?

"Didn't you ask me? What is the power of will? ”

The little giant spread his hands.

"That's what you're going to ask, I've already answered you once, that's the power of will, it's something that everyone has."

"Everybody...... You mean everyone? ”

The boy subconsciously raised his head.

"Everyone? Even someone like me can ......"

"Yes, everyone."

The little giant nodded.

"It's a power that everybody can grasp."

“……”

The boy didn't know what to say.

When the little giant in front of him said this, he was too serious and too serious, and it was difficult for him to take this sentence as child's play—but the fact that everyone can control power is a bit too outrageous to hear.

Just like those two compliments just now, this is more like an encouragement, a kind of praise, just like when I was in school before, my husband would say, "I already know a hundred words, it's amazing", even if it sounds comfortable, but it itself is not nutritious.

After all, there is a world of difference between people.

He has no proud family business, nor has he shown talent in any craft, he has no innate identity, and he does not have the courage to fight.

Taking 10,000 steps back, his thin arms and legs are far inferior to the little giant in front of him.

"Will the power of will make me as big as you?"

The boy subconsciously spoke.

"As tall as you, as big as you."

"Theoretically, as long as you want."

To the boy's surprise, the little giant in front of him actually nodded.

"Since you have said so, then let me ask you, do you know how to make yourself taller and bigger?"

“…… Eat more meat? ”

The teenager instinctively responded.

After all, that's what everyone says, eat more meat and you can grow stronger.

But even if he eats more meat...... Can you grow so strong?

"If you have an idea, try it."

The little giant patted him on the shoulder.

"In the future, I will prepare more meat for you every day, remember to eat more, so that you can grow your body."

"Uh......"

The boy began to scratch his head again.

Although he didn't get any answers to what he wanted to ask, he at least got a daily meal, so it seems...... Seems like a good thing?

Not to mention, he was fleeing the famine some time ago, it's good to have a stutter, don't say anything about gruel and hard buns, he has even gnawed a few bites of grass root bark, and now he can eat a mouthful of meat, or every day, which is simply great.

"Alright, let's play."

Seeing that the young man was already overjoyed, the little giant patted the young man on the back and signaled that the young man could do what he should do.

At present, there is a lot of labor in the post station, and there is no need for child labor, and the task of this young man has become to supervise the work of the captives with a small whip, which itself is just a toy, but as soon as this thing sounds, a brick will fly out of the back kitchen and smash it precisely on the person who wants to be lazy.

"You! What are you doing in a daze! ”

Perhaps because of his good mood, the young man immediately found out that Hu Sanbian was lazy, so the whip in his hand was raised high, and he was about to pull out the sound.

Hu Sanchang, who was still silently reciting something in the same place, was trembling when he landed.

"You can't do that!"

Hu Sanbian hurriedly lowered his voice.

"We all have a common secret, and we are all brothers when rounded, how can you put such a heavy hand on your own brother? You ......"

"Who is your brother?"

The boy shook his head repeatedly, but he remembered clearly that this old liar was completely different from him.

He is just an ordinary person, how can he be qualified to be a brother and sister to such a master of evil spirit?

"Don't ...... Other! Eldest brother! I know it's wrong! ”

Hu Sanbian hurriedly continued to pull up and grind diligently, shouting while pulling.

"I've been smashed three times today! If you smash your head again, you'll be smashed! You can do it, let me ...... this time."

“…… Okay, too. ”

Glancing at Hu Sanbian's bruised head, the young man put down the whip in his hand.

But immediately, the boy was stunned.

The little giant seemed to be telling the truth.

At least for now, these evil masters seem to be no different from him, they will also be timid, they will be afraid, they will beg for mercy, and they will also be lazy - indeed, when they wield their evil energy, they are all invincible, they can kill all sides, but now?

Now, they don't seem to be any different from him.

Even, he is still above these evil masters.

Of course, he also knew that what these evil masters were afraid of was not him, but the little giant in the back kitchen, if the little giant was not there, it was just these ordinary halters and ropes, which could not bind these evil masters at all - but at least in this situation, these evil masters were no different from him as an ordinary person.

"The power of will, the power that everyone can master......"

Recalling what the little giant had just said, combined with the evil qi masters in front of him, the young man vaguely felt that he understood something, but he didn't seem to understand anything.

Such an abnormality naturally attracted the attention of these evil qi masters.

"What did you just say?"

Hu Sanbian, who was born as an old liar, heard the gnat-like sound for the first time.

"What holds power?"

"Nothing."

The boy shook his head decisively, he still remembered the agreement between them.

No one should reveal that secret to others, and words must be counted.

But the size of the little giant can't be considered a human being strictly speaking, so if you say it, there shouldn't be any problem?

Anyway, as long as these people don't know, it means that he didn't leak the secret, and besides, the little giant won't tell the outside world about it, and the other party obviously knows this better than them.

Thinking of this, the young man's face became much calmer.

"I'm thinking about the secret I said before, I'm thinking about this power, can I learn it."

"You? Ha. ”

The captives in the backyard burst into laughter.

Although it is somewhat excessive to laugh at a young child, it is difficult for them not to laugh in the face of this kind of speech - just an ordinary person like a beggar, one has no family business, two has no talent, three has no inheritance, four is not fierce enough, nothing is nothing, even his arms and legs are skinny and bone-like, just such a child, he still says that he wants to master power?

"You can."

In the end, it was the old liar Hu San who opened his mouth, and he decided to praise the kid for a few words.

"You'll be able to do it, work hard."

"Huh? Do you think I can do it too? ”

The boy's eyes lit up.

"Then I might be able to do it...... I'll try! I lend you good luck! ”

With that, the boy ran away, leaving only a group of captives shaking their heads in place.

Shaking his head is inevitable, just an ordinary person who actually wants to be like them...... This kid is just too whimsical.

But what they didn't expect was that after just ten days, everything began to change.

"Here I go again!"

The young man, who already had a faint muscular outline, carried a string of heavy-looking iron whips, and gnawed his elbow as he walked into the backyard.

"I'm really getting stronger!"
