Chapter 169: It's a tower, not a pavilion
Lu An looked at Li Wu in surprise, and didn't react for a while.
In just two simple strokes, Xiao Xu's fist and his sword qi were all broken, and there was no impact.
The expected explosion did not appear, and only saw the gray light of the palpitation, and solved his strongest move at once.
This understatement really stunned Lu An in place.
Li Wu saw that Lu An was still in a daze, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and said, "Hey, hey
Lu An reacted at this time, immediately coughed twice, and immediately saluted respectfully with his fists in front of Li Wu and Xiao Xu, not daring to have any disrespect in his heart, which was out of respect for the strong.
Li Wu waved his hand and said disgustedly: "Don't come to this set, it's annoying to look at." ”
Lu An got up in embarrassment and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
At this time, Wei Yang and the three of them also ran over and asked nervously, "Childe, are you okay?"
Lu An nodded, signaling that he was okay.
Wei Yang said to Li Wu: "Master, the last move is not comparable? How should this be calculated? I think since I was interrupted by you, I think it can at least be considered a tie, right? In other words, the son has blocked it and has not lost, am I right?"
Li Wu glared at Wei Yang with disgust, and replied dissatisfiedly: "Your kid's elbow is turning out all day long, and your skin is itchy, isn't it?"
Frightened, Wei Yang quickly shrank behind everyone, poking his head out and looking secretly.
Gongsun Zhuo also helped Lu An speak at this time, "Fifth uncle, since you said the conditions, how should the situation be good now?"
Hearing this, Li Wu was even more annoyed, "You are also here to join in the fun? What are you anxious about? I haven't even said the result yet, you guys will come one by one!"
Gongsun Zhuo's face turned red, and he quickly closed his mouth, not daring to say anything more, and immediately retreated to the side, and the province continued to be scolded.
Li Wu snorted coldly, stepped forward in annoyance, kicked Xiao Xu who was in a daze, and said with a scolding grin: "It's really useless, at such an old age, you can't even handle a little doll!"
Xiao Xu sighed, looked around blankly, then turned his head to look at Li Wu, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with the fifth uncle?"
Li Wu was not angry, but leaned in and shouted, "Why are you stunned here? Why don't you go and sweep the floor quickly! Remember to mend the ground and walls for me!"
Xiao Xu understood this, immediately picked up the broom with only one handle left, and hurriedly ran out.
Li Wu then looked at Lu An, coughed lightly, and said without blushing and heartbeat: "I said before, if you can block Xiao Xu's three moves, so that you can prove that you have the strength to enter, I will let you in, but unfortunately the three moves are not finished." ”
"What?Master, are you playing a scoundrel?" Wei Yang hurriedly interrupted.
Li Wu turned his head in annoyance and glared at Wei Yang.
Li Li was also interested, and immediately covered Wei Yang's mouth.
Li Wu continued: "Although you haven't finished the three moves, you have also proved your strength, although your strength is average, it is not outstanding, but it can be regarded as barely passing." After saying this, Li Wu paused.
Lu An hurriedly saluted and thanked: "Thank you, old man, for making it complete." ”
Li Wu frowned, and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry to thank you, I haven't finished speaking, I can let you in, but you still have to promise me a request." ”
Lu An nodded, "Old gentleman, let's talk about it, as long as Lu An can do it, he will definitely be satisfied." ”
Li Wu coughed lightly and asked slowly, "What do you think of me?" ”
Lu An was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding what Li Wu's words meant, but he still replied honestly: "Li Lao's strength is all over the sky, among the people I have seen, at least the top three, and maybe even the first, but I don't know much about the strength of the grandmaster, so I can't tell the difference, but I feel this way." ”
Li Wu nodded with satisfaction, but his words were still very choking, "You kid has only seen a few grandmasters, this sycophant is not good." ”
Lu An suddenly blushed and wanted to continue to explain, but unfortunately was directly stopped by Li Wu.
Li Wu suddenly showed a shy smile on his face, looked at Lu An, smiled, and asked, "Since you think I am so strong, then let me ask you, if I go to collect apprentices, what is the success rate?"
Lu An didn't think about it and replied directly: "With the strength of Mr. Li, you must accept whoever you want, and you can even say that everyone wants to be your apprentice, and it is his blessing to be able to be Mr.'s apprentice, I really can't think of anyone who will refuse, unless that person is a fool." ”
Li Wu was even more satisfied with this answer, obviously Lu An's sycophant was very comfortable, and his expression was suddenly happy, he stroked his beard, and asked expectantly: "In this case, are you willing to be my apprentice?"
Lu An sighed, looked at Li Wu in surprise, and immediately stammered, "For... Why... Is it me?"
Li Wu also saw Lu An's surprise, thinking that it should be a surprise, and continued: "Because Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to it! You also said it yourself before, it is a blessing to be my apprentice!"
"But, but I..." Lu An frowned, not knowing how to answer.
"Why do you want to refuse?" Li Wu's brows furrowed, and his face turned cold, with an unkind expression.
"Mr. Li, thank you very much for your love, but I already have a master, so I really can't worship you as a teacher anymore. Lu An declined.
Li Wu was annoyed and embarrassed, snorted heavily, his beard blew up, and then sat down directly, his head turned, and he actually sulked there.
This scene also made Lu An roll his eyes, when did he become so sought-after, alas!
The other three also felt a little inexplicable about Li Wu's desire to accept apprentices.
Especially Gongsun Zhuo, he has been in for 20 years, and for the first time he saw the Martial Academy, he actually begged others to accept apprentices, in the past, it was always the Martial Academy that picked others, and after 20 years of picking, he just picked one, but today is good, Lu An casually showed a few hands, and captured Li Wu, which was really surprising for Gongsun Zhuo.
Gongsun Zhuo immediately asked out loud: "Fifth uncle, do you really want to accept apprentices?"
Li Wu immediately blew his beard and glared back: "What do you say? Do you think I'm joking?"
Gongsun Zhuo hurriedly froze, smiled awkwardly, and waved his hand again and again: "No, no, but why did you fall in love with Lu An, fifth uncle?"
Li Wu asked rhetorically, "What do you think? Are you really joking?" After speaking, he got up directly and kicked again, and Gongsun Zhuo fell to the ground with a sigh.
Lu An suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, glanced at Gongsun Zhuo gratefully, and then clenched his fists and said, "Mr. Li, I really can't worship you as a teacher." ”
Li Wu sighed and said helplessly: "Since you already have a master, there is no way, I won't force you." ”
Lu An breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him again.
"What about entering the Library Pavilion?" Gongsun Zhuo asked again inappropriately.
Li Wu glared, "I've always been a man of words, since this kid has proved that he has this strength, then I will definitely let him in, urge and hurry, you know that you are complying!"
Lu An was instantly overjoyed and looked at Gongsun Zhuo gratefully.
Li Wu was dissatisfied again, and immediately asked: "Look at what he is doing, if you want to thank me, you have to thank me, this old boy knows how to pound paste every day, and he is annoyed to death." ”
Gongsun Zhuo immediately smiled awkwardly.
Lu An immediately looked at Li Wu, smiled, and thanked him again.
"It's pretty much the same, when do you want to go in?" asked Li Wu.
"Isn't it okay to go in with them in a few days?" Lu An replied.
Li Wubai glanced at Lu An and replied: "You don't say stupid things, you can go in whenever you want, this is not a cave, you need a fixed time to enter, don't you just open a door?" ”
Lu An was buried by Li Wu, and he could only scratch his head in embarrassment, but he immediately replied: "Then I'll go in after a little rest, okay?"
Li Wu nodded, then sat down, crossed Erlang's legs, and then looked at Gongsun Zhuo and the others, and said with disgust: "You can go, don't be here, it's an eyesore." ”
Gongsun Zhuo nodded, and Lu An also nodded at Li Li.
Then the three of them left first.
Lu An found a place and rested.
After a while, Lu An opened his eyes, looked at Li Wu, and said respectfully, "Old Li, I'm fine." ”
Li Wu was dozing off in the chair, and when he heard this, he stretched, "Let's go." ”
Lu An hurriedly followed behind Li Wu and came directly to the back mountain.
Along this road, after walking for a short time, Lu An saw a nine-story tower.
"This is the Library Pavilion?" asked Lu An.
Li Wu nodded, "Actually, it's called the Library Tower, there are nine floors, the lower three floors are dominated by various literary classics, the fourth to seventh floors are the so-called martial arts classics, you don't have to go up to the eighth or ninth floor, of course you can't go up if you want to, so boy, you want to go in so much, do you want to see something?"
Lu An shook his head and replied embarrassedly: "I just heard that there are a lot of lost things here, so I want to see if there is anything suitable for me, no matter how long it is, it is better to have a long experience." ”
Li Wubai glanced at him and scolded, "Stinky boy, you don't even want to go to the library without even looking at the ground, what is your mind thinking?"
Lu An smiled, didn't dare to speak, and scratched his head in embarrassment.
Li Wu sighed again, showed an expression of pity, and slowly spoke: "Since you don't have a goal, then I'll point you one, how about it?"
Lu An nodded immediately, and a smile appeared on his face, he didn't know anything about this library tower, but Li Wu knew it very well, if he could provide a suggestion, it would probably be a good thing inside, and it was likely to be a very precious thing, of course it was a good suggestion for himself.
Li Wu then said: "The words I said earlier are not used to bluff you, the evil qi on your kid's body is too heavy, for ordinary people, there should not be such a heavy evil qi on the body, others may kill more people than you, but their evil qi is not as heavy as you, the evil qi on your body is the kind that has accumulated over time and will not dissipate at all, do you understand what I said?"
Lu An nodded as if he didn't understand, "Old Li, do you mean that other people's will dissipate over time, but my will not, only more and more?"
Li Wu nodded and asked suspiciously, "Haven't you felt anything for so long?"
Lu An paused and asked, "What does the strangeness mean?"
"Killing, Scarlet, the body suddenly lost control, fell into madness, didn't know the pain, wasn't afraid of bloodshed, only thought about attacking. Li Wu replied with a frown, as if he had thought of something again.
Hearing this, Lu An nodded subconsciously, his heart trembled suddenly, and he slowly spoke: "Yes, there have been twice." ”
Li Wu's eyes dimmed a little when he looked at Lu An, "Have you already done it twice?"
Lu An nodded in fear and asked timidly, "Twice, is it already considered serious?"
Li Wu replied: "There is no difference between once and twice, the key is that it has already begun, if you don't control it now, you may really be stunned in the future." ”
Lu An retorted, "But I think I felt very good at that time, these two times suddenly broke out when my life was in danger, and I survived by relying on these two times, so is this state really as serious as you said, Old Li?"
Li Wu immediately scolded: "You know a fart, once or twice, you feel comfortable, and then you will slowly like this feeling, and when you want to suppress it at that time, you won't have a chance." ”
Lu An was stunned and asked rhetorically, "Really?" The expression on his face was very puzzled.
Because these two times Lu An only appeared when he was on the verge of death, although his consciousness was not so clear at that time, he also guessed that it was because of the evil qi that he saved his life, so Lu An didn't feel that this evil qi would hurt him a lot, and even felt that it was saving himself.
After thinking about it, Lu An only thought of one possibility, that is, his desire to survive was stimulated.
And Lu An remembered that Xiao Wu once said that his evil qi could be used for it, which was different from others.
Therefore, Lu An does not feel that the evil qi on his body is a hidden danger, more precisely, it is a way to save his life, but he doesn't know how to control it for the time being.
Now that Li Wu said that evil qi would affect him, Xiao Wu and Li Wu's statements were contradictory all of a sudden, which really made Lu An feel a little confused.
Li Wu saw that Lu An was still like this, and knew that Lu An was very disapproving of what he said, and then he was angry and scolded: "Stinky boy, you can't feel it now, it's your fate, it all appeared when your life was in danger, so if this kind of change occurs in the future for no reason, what should you do? At that time, you can only become a person who has no humanity and only knows how to kill, then your life will be over, do you know?"
To be honest, Lu An has never considered this consequence, Lu An is very conflicted now, I don't know who to believe, one says that he can control it, and the other says that he can't control it, the two of them have completely different statements, it would be good if both of them were there, let them confront them face to face, so that they don't have to be indecided.
After thinking about it, Lu An still wanted to listen to Li Wu's suggestion, "Old Li, why do you know so much about this? Have you seen it?"
Li Wu didn't expect Lu An to ask such a question, so he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly stopped talking.
Seeing this, Lu An knew that Li Wu must have seen it, and judging by the reaction, it may be someone who is very familiar with him, so the impression is so deep and strong.
As soon as Lu An wanted to open his mouth and continue to ask, Li Wu took the lead in speaking, "That's right, I've seen it, and it's very familiar, I watched him become like that step by step, and became what I said." ”
Lu An was also silent at this time, looking at Li Wu quietly, waiting for him to continue to speak.
Li Wu took a big breath and said slowly, "Do you remember the person Gongsun Zhuo said earlier?"
"Is that the apprentice that the Martial Academy accepted twenty years ago?" Lu An asked tentatively.
Li Wu nodded, his tone became extraordinarily deep, even with a hint of sadness, "It's him, I watched him walk into that abyss, and never came out of it again." ”
Lu An asked in a low voice, "What about him, now?"
Li Wu lowered his head and smiled dismally, "Maybe I'm dead, I was seriously injured, I threw it down the mountain with my own hands, and I died." ”
Hearing the word death, Lu An didn't dare to continue to ask.
The two fell into a strange silence, neither of them speaking.
Before he knew it, he walked to the bottom of the library tower, Li Wu stopped, and Lu An also stopped.
"Old Li, what should I do now?" Lu An asked out loud.
Li Wu replied in a low voice: "Although I don't know why you are so sure that you will not be affected by the evil qi, I still think that you should make some preparations in this regard, not to mention elimination, at least to suppress it, and not let this evil qi grow so unscrupulously." ”
"Is there something relevant in this that can be suppressed?" Lu An asked.
Li Wu nodded, and continued: "You go up to the fifth floor, there is a copy of "Pure Heart Jinglu" in it, this thing is used to concentrate and practice qi, it is good for your sea of spiritual consciousness, and it can suppress evil qi, if it weren't for the fact that you are a good kid, I won't tell you so much, you can go shopping by yourself for the rest, stay for three days at most, and then another group of people will come in, you can just come out at that time." ”
Lu An hugged his fists and thanked: "Thank you Elder Li." ”
Li Wu waved his hand, looked at Lu An with disgust, and signaled not to do this, "Annoying, you are not my apprentice, why do you always worship me, hum!"
After saying this, Li Wu immediately walked to the door, knocked on it with a bang, and shouted in his mouth: "Fourth, open the door." ”
It took a while for the door to slowly open.
"Who, knock again!" said the white-haired fourth angrily.
"It's me!" Li Wu glared directly.
"Oh, oh, it's the fifth. The fourth glanced at Li Wu and then at Lu An on the side, and said puzzledly: "Will you go in alone this year?"
Li Wu explained: "Under special circumstances, let him in for three days, you don't have to worry about it, and after three days, I will bring someone again." ”
The fourth child frowned, nodded dissatisfiedly, pulled Lu An in, and then closed the door.
Lu An looked at the old man in front of him cautiously and did not speak first.
The fourth child glanced at Lu An with disgust, and said slowly: "My surname is Zhao, ranked fourth, you can watch it yourself, you are only allowed to look at it, not to copy it, and not to take it out." ”
