Because Wu Lun wanted to teach Liu Jizu for a long time, he moved his family from another county in Xinzhou three years ago after seeing that Liu Jizu had potential, and built an ordinary house next to Mr. Tian's garden. Wu Lun's background is very pitiful, when he was ten years old, his family met bandits and were killed, and he was met by his master by chance, killed those bandits, and later accepted him as an apprentice.

His wife is not from the rivers and lakes, but the daughter of an ordinary peasant family in Wu Lun's hometown. Wu Lun saved her by chance, and the two got married. After getting married, Wu Lun restrained a lot, acted more low-key, and didn't take on those high-paying tasks very much. It's just that because I owe Mr. Tian a favor, I haven't been able to repay it, and I admire Mr. Tian's knowledge and am willing to learn from him, so before teaching Liu Jizu, I would come to Mr. Tian's house to live for a period of time every year.

Wu Lun has a total of two sons, the second is a material for martial arts training, Wu Lun handed him over to a junior he is familiar with to teach, and now he is paying tuition for his teacher. The boss is not suitable for martial arts training, and he is not willing to learn literature, so Wu Lun took out some money, bought him a house and land in his hometown, and guarded his parents-in-law at home to live a living in agriculture, which can be regarded as filial piety for them. These are all things that Liu Jizu only learned after getting along slowly for a long time.

Liu Jizu started a new training, and the training content was greatly adjusted, in addition to the regular physical training, a lot of special training equipment and training methods were added. In particular, the breathing and exhalation methods, the exertion methods, the training of special parts of the body, and the coordination of these techniques with each other, etc.

The rest of the training was not difficult, and what made Liu Jizu most uncomfortable was that Wu Lun tied a lot of weight bags to him. He was not allowed to take it off when he slept, it was very uncomfortable, and there were more and more heavy bags, and the contents were getting heavier and heavier. Liu Jizu gritted his teeth and endured it, from being uncomfortable at the beginning and not being able to rest to later becoming accustomed to it, and slowly adapted.

There is no time in the mountains, and seven years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Liu Jizu has grown into a young man. Because of his ability to keep up with nutrition, his exercise is diligent, and he has inherited the family's excellent genes, he has grown almost as tall as his father Liu Zhu. It is estimated that if this trend continues, he will be taller and stronger than his grandfather in two years.

But this kind of strength is different from the body shape of his grandfather and father, who had worked hard for a long time in the farm. Rather, it is similar to Master's body shape, with well-proportioned and coordinated muscles, strong and strong bones, a tall and strong body, full of energy, and refreshed. Even after a long period of exercise, the temperament of the whole person has changed.

During this time, in addition to the regular teaching content, Mr. Tian also taught Liu Jizu a lot of knowledge other than textbooks. For example, simple medical skills, the geography and customs he traveled, and even the agricultural economy, border wars, and court pasts, etc., greatly enriched Liu Jizu's knowledge and broadened his horizons. With the help of Mr. Tian, he also obtained the reputation of Xiucai, and his family took the opportunity to put the field in his name, and within 100 acres of land, he could be exempted from paying taxes and forced labor, which greatly reduced the burden on his family. And he can also move around the country freely in the name of study tours, and he can enjoy the treatment of Jianghu people without going to the government to open a station, which is too convenient in that era.

Wu Lun was also very envious of this, he said that the people of the rivers and lakes could only move around by relying on the official government's offices, degrees or documents signed by the sect, but it was easy to expose their identities when they entered the city by relying on these things. But Xiucai's identity is different, not only will he not be suspected, but he will also be treated preferentially everywhere, which is really enviable.

But how many of those who can be admitted to Xiucai are willing or able to go to the rivers and lakes? It is already good to be able to learn well, and it is very rare to be both civil and military. Liu Jizu is because he has memories of his past life, and learning cultural knowledge is not a burden for him, so it is easier to learn.

Both of his martial arts have been mastered, and now even if he is tied to a weight bag, his movements are extremely fast, far beyond ordinary people, and when he takes off the load bag, his speed will be even faster. Due to long-term boxing, his hands are obviously thicker than ordinary people, and the bone joints are protruding after clenching his fists, and there are thick calluses on them. When fighting against the master, the punches are full of power, the tiger is vigorous, and with the swift footwork and legs, the tricks are so fast that people can't see clearly. The strength is also very great, it is really like a wild beast fighting.

In addition to the two martial arts, Liu Jizu also taught him a little hidden weapon technique with Wu Lun, although he didn't learn it systematically, he could only throw one stone at a time. But in order not to break the rules, there is only so much to teach. It's a little difficult to use this to beat people, but it's good to use it for hunting, and Liu Jizu also used this as an excuse to move Wu Lun to teach him.

After all, Wu Lun was in his fifties at this time, and his strength and speed were a little unable to keep up with him. You must wear arm guards and inner armor, and rely on experience and other martial arts to fight him to a draw. But even if he was wearing arm guards and inner armor, every fierce physical collision brought a lot of pressure to Wu Lun.

Wu Lun didn't understand this in his heart, because he didn't feel that his physical strength had dropped so much. But Liu Jizu's progress is really fast, when he is as old as him, he definitely does not have such strength and speed, I wonder if this is the so-called boxing fear of being less strong? Or is Liu Jizu's talent far superior to himself? But no matter what, he is very happy that his apprentice has chosen the right one.

Soon after Liu Jizu's sixteenth birthday, Wu Lun pondered how to say goodbye to Mr. Tian and take Liu Jizu back to the sect.

Before he could open his mouth that morning, he saw Lao Liao Tou hurriedly come to the back garden, saying that Mr. Tian wanted to talk to them.

Wu Lun and Liu Jizu were both nervous after hearing this.

Mr. Tian is old, and since Liu Jizu achieved the fame of Xiucai, he has stopped teaching students, and he has been in poor health recently. The two were worried about whether something was wrong, so they hurried over. I saw Mr. Tian sitting alone in the hall, getting thinner and thinner, and his face was a little pale. Seeing that the two were coming, Mr. Tian let the two of them sit.

Wu Lun asked with concern, "Sir, how are you doing?"

"I'm in my old age, and my body can still be done. In the past few days, I have obviously felt low on energy, and I guess time is running out. I came to you today to explain to you what happened to me. ”

Wu Lun and Liu Jizu were shocked when they heard this. After more than ten years of getting along, they and Mr. Tian have established a deep relationship, and they can't help but feel sad when they hear it. Mr. Tian saw it very openly, and he said: "In this world, it is rare to live to my age. I have lived a worry-free life, no illness or disaster, my daughter is married, and my wife is gone, which can be regarded as a good death. You don't have to be sad! The property and slaves of my Xinzhou City have been disposed of, and the money has been left to my daughter and granddaughter. This house and a hundred acres of land were also left for them in case of emergency. After my death, the land was entrusted to Xiao Liao's family. I calculated, we have water here, the fields in the valley are quite fertile, and the yield of wheat per mu is about 250 catties. In addition to the taxes to be paid after my death, there are still more than 220 catties left, and let him pay 100 catties of rent per mu every year. Converted into money, it is 100 yuan per mu per year, and 100 acres of land is 10 taels of silver per year.

Xiao Liao is my scholar, who has followed me since he was a child and has a deep relationship with me. Their family's room here, they are willing to live in it forever, help me clean and take care of this house, just don't waste it. I also built a house for them on the edge of the field, and I also went to slavery for their family, and you can help me take care of it if you have the chance. ”

After speaking, he looked at Wu Lun and said, "It's hard for you to be ungrateful for decades and do your best for my affairs." My step-ancestor has been released, and my kindness to you will be repaid, and you will no longer owe me anything. ”

Wu Lun didn't speak, but with tears in his eyes, he stood up and saluted his husband respectfully.

Mr. Tian was also very moved, and asked him to sit down before continuing: "You and I have been kind, but the friendship is still there, and we are still friends of father and son." As for my step-fathers, you have received my true lineage, and I am very satisfied. I entrusted Wu Lun to buy a set of equipment for you, and I also prepared ten taels of silver for you, which can be regarded as a little heart for the teacher. I hope you will not forget your oath and fulfill your promise, and I will die blindly. ”

When Liu Jizu heard this, he also shed tears, knelt down and promised to kowtow to his husband.

Mr. Tian didn't get up, let him get up and sit down, his voice was a lot weaker, "I heard from a friend who came to visit me that the faint prince is old, but he favors the noble concubine, the prince has been deposed for many years and has not been re-established, and the four adult sons are kings outside and do not restrain and discipline, this is the way to take chaos." If it goes on like this, Da Zhou will soon be in chaos, I hope my estimate is wrong. The other day, I had a premonition that my deadline was approaching, so I had someone send a letter to my daughter and ask her to come. Please help her take care of the funeral for me, and I'll be buried here. The coffin of the cemetery has also been bought, and I have already moved the graves of my wife and two sons, so I can be buried with my wife. That's all I can arrange. ”

Wu Lun and Liu Jizu cried while listening, and Mr. Tian was a little tired after speaking, so the two carried him back to the room to rest.

During this time, Liu Jizu didn't go home anymore, and waited by the side all day long.

Two days later, Mr. Tian's daughter and granddaughter arrived, and Mr. Tian was very weak by this time. Seeing that his daughter and granddaughter were coming, he called Wu Lun, Liu Jizu and Lao Liao Tou in a strong spirit, and explained the aftermath intermittently in front of his daughter and granddaughter.

That night, Mr. Tian passed away smiling, surrounded by his relatives, friends, and students.

Wu Lun, Liu Jizu and Lao Liaotou's family helped Mr. Tian's daughter and took care of the aftermath according to Mr. Tian's arrangement.

Wu Lun held the nephew ceremony, and Liu Jizu and several classmates held the disciple ceremony for the funeral of Mr.
