Chapter Eighty-Three: Wang Li's Pursuit
"Master Wang, do you think I have any talent in martial arts?"
While stuffing vegetables into his mouth, Liu Hao asked Wang Li, who was eating silently and not speaking.
"Gifted."
Wang Li nodded, to be honest, among the people he had seen, Liu Hao was not the most talented in martial arts, but he was definitely the one who worked the hardest.
If you want to talk about talent, it's actually very mysterious, what exactly does it mean, let alone Wang Li, I'm afraid that even the old man who has achieved innate innate can't say it.
But as long as you are willing to be diligent and hardworking, in Wang Li's view, everyone has talent, and this talent is nothing else, but depends on a person's heart.
Those who have a pure heart can devote themselves to everything, and they will naturally make rapid progress, and everything will have a multiplier effect with half the effort.
This kind of person is called a gifted person.
Of course, there are also some martial arts schools that pay more attention to the quality of all aspects of the body depending on the talent, the so-called suitable for martial arts, it depends on whether your body is suitable or not, but there is no absolute, the body is suitable, but the heart is not necessarily suitable. The sect can see a person's physical fitness, but it can't see what a person's mental nature is.
Just as Liu Hao ran to Shaolin Temple before, but was driven out by that group of monks, this does not mean that Liu Hao has no talent, it can only mean that Liu Hao does not meet the requirements of Shaolin Temple.
But in front of Wang Li, Liu Hao already belongs to the kind of rare talent for martial arts. After all, in this impetuous society, there are not many people who can calm down and devote themselves to practicing martial arts.
Therefore, listening to Liu Hao's question, Wang Li almost did not hesitate, and nodded directly in affirmativeness.
"Really?"
Liu Hao didn't expect Wang Li to answer so directly and so refreshingly, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, after all, he just hoped to convince his sister with Wang Li's comments.
It's just that he didn't expect Wang Li to give face like this.
Of course, from Wang Li's expression, he could also see that Wang Li was definitely not talking casually, let alone giving himself face, but was very sure of his talent.
Suddenly, his mind became very complicated.
You must know that in the entire family, except for his sister, who still supports him, everyone else looks down on him, saying that he is not even as good as a few cousins, and he only knows how to waste family resources and does not benefit the family at all.
If it weren't for the fact that he had a good sister and a father who was the secretary of the municipal party committee, I am afraid that there would be no place for him in the family for a long time.
He has been practicing martial arts for so many years, only his sister has never said anything, but the only thing that affirms that he has a talent for martial arts is Wang Li's three words that are very sure.
It was these three words that almost didn't make him cry.
After several years of persistence, only these three words affirm his efforts all the time, indicating that everything he has done is not just a waste of resources, but doing it right.
"Master Wang, you're not perfunctory to me, are you?" Liu Hao's voice trembled a little, and he couldn't help asking.
"What am I doing with you?"
Wang Li glanced at him angrily, a little strange to his excited look, and couldn't help but say: "You can practice the Iron Armor Fist to that level without anyone's guidance, which already shows your talent, isn't this enough to show it?" Or maybe you don't have confidence in yourself? ”
"It's not that I don't have confidence, but I've been hit too hard." Liu Hao shook his head, with a smile on his face that he had never had before, as relieved, which made Wang Li's eyes disappear.
"Okay, okay, isn't Wang Li sure of you, with his level, he won't lie to you as a child."
Only Liu Shengnan understood his brother's thoughts at this time, and while he was happy for him in his heart, he glanced at Wang Li gratefully and said.
"Yes."
Liu Hao smiled more satisfied.
And hearing Liu Shengnan's words, Wang Li was moved in his heart, what is his own level, could it be that this Liu Shengnan has investigated himself, or has he heard something from Liu Hao?
Just when Wang Li was puzzled, Liu Shengnan said with a smile: "Master Wang, before this, I want to congratulate you, in Linhai, you are now a big man with a name and a surname." defeated taekwondo master An Mingxuan, there are already people who are on a par with taekwondo master Li Minghan. ”
"Li Minghan?"
Wang Li's eyes flashed, and he thought of the origin of this name, Zhang Xueyi had said before that the number one master in the country of sticks, that is, the master of An Mingxuan, seems to be called Li Minghan, right?
"It's just a false name, it's just a false name."
Wang Li shook his head, he was a little expected to become famous in Linhai after defeating An Mingxuan, but he still didn't like this kind of false name.
After all, there is an old saying that people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, once you become famous, it is equivalent to being exposed to everyone, and it is not so convenient to do anything in the future.
Just like before, he thought about pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger to do a vote, compete with others and win a sum of money, but now I think about it, I'm afraid it's impossible.
With his record of defeating An Mingxuan, it is estimated that few people in the entire Linhai dare to challenge him, An Mingxuan can have a huge reputation, and it is played game by game.
Wang Li was able to defeat An Mingxuan, which naturally established his strength to be unshakable, those whose strength is not as good as An Mingxuan, where do they dare to compete with him, isn't that looking for death?
Besides, he is Zhang Xueyi's bodyguard, and now that his fame has spread, if someone really makes trouble with Zhang Xueyi in the future, he will definitely consider solving himself first.
In this way, it is equivalent to that he has exposed his target, and in the future, when others target Zhang Xueyi, the plan will only be more sophisticated, more important and comprehensive, and his force will be taken into account.
Therefore, on the whole, although Wang Li won two million dollars in this competition, and even won fame, it was not a good thing for him.
So much so that after hearing Liu Shengnan's congratulations, he was actually smiling bitterly in his heart.
Liu Shengnan seemed to notice the depression behind Wang Li's smile, blinked his beautiful eyes, and asked, "Wang Li, why do you feel that you are not happy?" ”
"Is this something to be happy about?"
Wang Li did not answer, but asked directly.
Liu Hao on the side misunderstood Wang Li's meaning, thinking that he looked down on An Mingxuan, but said with admiration: "Hehe, Master Wang's strength is very strong, and An Mingxuan is naturally not a problem, in my opinion, go back Master Wang, you directly challenge Li Minghan, if you win Li Minghan, it will be really exciting, and then I will see who else says that our Chinese martial arts are not real fighting arts." ”
"Li Minghan forget it, he can become the first grandmaster of the stick country, he must still have some strength, I won't challenge him, it's not that I'm afraid of him, but I don't think it's necessary." Wang Li said.
"Why is it not necessary?"
Liu Hao was a little puzzled and asked.
"Is it necessary?"
Wang Li asked rhetorically and said, "If necessary, then even if you say that even if I win the challenge, what good will it do me?" ”
"If you win, then you will be a real master, Li Minghan is so famous, people in the martial arts world all over the world know him, if you defeat him, don't everyone in the martial arts world know you, then you can be regarded as really famous." Liu Hao said as a matter of course.
"What's the benefit of being famous?" Liu Hao didn't interface, but continued to ask.
"Of course there are benefits, and then you can open martial arts halls everywhere, teach disciples, and even lead Chinese martial arts to the world." Speaking of this, Liu Hao became a little fanatical.
It's just that when his eyes fell on Wang Li's face, he saw Wang Li's calm expression, and slowly shook his head and said, "What you said is not a benefit, but a burden." ”
"Cumbersome?"
Liu Hao didn't understand it very much.
"Yes, there is no first in the text, and there is no second in the martial arts. Not to mention that my current strength is not the first in the world, even if I really achieve the first in the world, it is impossible to lead Chinese martial arts to the world. It is even more impossible to open a martial arts hall, a disciple. Wang Li said calmly.
"Why?"
Liu Hao asked loudly, in his opinion, the reason why people who practice martial arts practice martial arts is to be better than others, and then open martial arts halls everywhere, and even teach a large number of apprentices.
Just like those great martial arts masters decades ago or a hundred years ago, they established various martial arts halls, taught boxing techniques, brought out a large number of apprentices, and spread out.
"There is no why, it's still the same sentence, there is no first, there is no second, even if I defeat Li Minghan, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be a person who defeats me tomorrow, and everything I do will become a stepping stone for others." Wang Li said lightly.
"But ......"
Liu Hao still wanted to refute something, but he just looked at Wang Li's face, and when the words came to his mouth, he retracted again, holding it in his heart, uncomfortable to death.
"It's nothing, you're not at my level yet, and once you've reached it, you'll know that there's nothing more interesting than pursuing the pinnacle of life. My goal is simple, to see where the midpoint of this martial art is, to surpass those who already exist, or the legends of the powerhouses. ”
When Wang Li said this, he exuded a kind of mountain-like momentum, and his eyes were as bright as stars, as if they contained mystery.
Seeing this scene, Liu Shengnan's beautiful eyes lit up, and he glanced at him seriously, but he didn't say anything, and ate silently.
However, Liu Hao couldn't help but sigh: "Master Wang, although I can't understand what you say again, I can feel that what you said is very powerful, and it should be better than anything I know." ”
"Haha, it's really unconscious, Liu Hao, you're too funny, aren't you?" Zhang Xue, who was on the side, almost stopped laughing when she heard this, and hurriedly said.
"Yes, I just don't know when I will reach this realm of Master Wang." Liu Hao didn't laugh, but shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"My realm is not great, and it is not a big deal, as long as you can strengthen your heart and reach my level, what is it, do you know the Buddha?" Wang Li said.
"Of course I know the Buddha, isn't it enshrined in the temple?" Liu Hao looked at Wang Li strangely, not understanding why he suddenly asked about this again.
"You are wrong, there is a saying in Buddhism that everyone can become a Buddha, that is, the realm of a Buddha is nothing, everyone can achieve it." Wang Li said.
"Isn't it?"
When Liu Hao heard this, he immediately felt that the whole worldview had collapsed a little, Buddhism said so, yes, but it seems that it is just to propagate the teachings and make people good, how can everyone mean Buddha?
"Nothing is wrong, where there is a will, there is a way, this is the most common sentence, you just need to keep it in mind." Wang Li smiled and said such a sentence.
