He had the illusion that if the gray wolf of the Soap Water Gang was a cruel lone wolf, then this middle-aged man was a giant beast that came out of the wilderness.

No wonder it is rumored that the gray wolf came out of the martial arts courtyard.

At this time.

The middle-aged man slowly withdrew his hand, as if he had unloaded ten thousand catties of boulders, as if the ground was trembling, and so on, before he opened his eyes, did not look at the two of them, and picked up a pot of tea from the side to drink.

The strong man licked his face and said, "Master, your old man's skills have increased." ”

The middle-aged man glanced at him and said angrily: "Don't pat yourself on the back, if you have something to say, get out of here." ”

The strong man laughed, scratched his head, and grabbed Ren Qiu: "Master, he wants to learn martial arts, I look at him very sincerely, so I brought him over for you to see." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and asked, "By the way, what's your name?"

Ren Qiu took a few steps forward and said, "In the next Ren Qiu, I have seen the master master." ”

The middle-aged man glanced at him and shook his head: "Qi and blood are too weak, practicing martial arts is just a waste of time, even if you forcibly practice martial arts, it is only half the effort." ”

Ren Qiu's heart was cold, but he didn't give up, and said: "Master, I am willing to work hard, and use other people's ten times and a hundred times the effort to practice martial arts." ”

The middle-aged man was indifferent, and said lightly: "Although it takes hard work to practice martial arts, talent is also very important, you are weak and lack of blood and qi, I am afraid that before you can achieve something, you will die of blood." ”

"Master, you can't say that, if you are weak, you can eat more, and if you eat more blood, it is enough, besides, master, didn't you say some time ago that the world is chaotic now, do you want to recruit more disciples?"

"It's nonsense. ”

The middle-aged man snorted coldly, glanced at Ren Qiu, shook his head and turned to leave.

The strong man grinned and patted Ren Qiu on the shoulder: "Okay, the master agreed, you will be my junior brother in the future, my name is Liu Zhuangzhuang, ranked third in the martial arts academy, just call me the third senior brother." ”

Ren Qiu hurriedly surrendered his hand: "Ren Qiu has seen the third senior brother. ”

As he spoke, he took out a gold bar from his waist and handed it over with both hands, Liu Zhuangzhuang took it and threw it, waved his hand and said, "Okay, this will be used as tuition, just remember to come and report it tomorrow." ”

Out of the martial arts academy, Ren Qiu took a deep breath, and a cold sweat broke out all over his body, he didn't expect things to take such a turn.

I looked back and saw the muscular strong men grinding their strength inside, and my heart was on fire.

Martial arts.

Practicing martial arts in the previous life was just a dream, but practicing martial arts in this life is more about survival.

At the mouth of the alley, a man with a restrained body rushed out: "Alas, you will ...... later"

Stopped in front of Ren Qiu and rubbed his fingers: "What about the money? The promised reward, whether it is successful or not, you have to give money, you can't rely on the debt." ”

Ren Qiu glanced at him, he was in a very good mood, and he didn't care, he took out a few corners of broken silver from his waist and threw it over.

Then bypass and leave.

The man rubbed the broken silver in his hand, looked at Ren Qiu's back, a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes, and muttered: "Did he go in, or didn't he go in?" ”

......

Before dawn the next day, Ren Qiu came to the martial arts courtyard, and before the door opened, he stood in the door and waited, and after a while, someone opened the door, and saw him frowning: "Who are you looking for?"

Ren Qiu arched his hand and said: "Hello this senior brother, I am a newcomer to learn martial arts, and the third senior brother asked me to report." ”

The man glanced at Ren Qiu in surprise, shook his head and said, "The third senior brother didn't say anything, forget it, you come in first and wait, they will come over later." ”

When I entered the courtyard, it was empty, and only a few people had already gotten up, waving their fists and feet.

The sky was bright, and people came in one after another, not looking at Ren Qiu, chatting with acquaintances in their own care, or going to polish their strength alone.

A young man with a gloomy owl walked in slowly, his eyes suddenly swept to the ground, and when he saw Ren Qiu, his face became even darker, he walked over with a cold snort, looked up and down, and sneered: "You are very good." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Ren Qiu was a little inexplicable, and the people next to him saw it and gloated: "Have you offended the fifth senior brother?"

Ren Qiu shook his head and said no.

The man was surprised: "That's not right, although the fifth senior brother is arrogant, as long as you don't mess with him, he won't deliberately target you." ”

Ren Qiu had a faint feeling in his heart, it must have been Zhou Yuan who refused to introduce him to the Martial Arts Academy yesterday, but Liu Zhuangzhuang forcibly brought him in, which made him angry and hostile.

But let him go now, that's impossible.

"Yes, the third senior brother is here. ”

The figure like a giant bear, passing through the gate, looked around, and the surrounding disciples all shouted Third Senior Brother, and then they were going to the backyard.

Ren Qiu hurriedly walked over and saluted, "Ren Qiu has seen the third senior brother. ”

"It's you. ”

Liu Zhuangzhuang patted his head: "I almost forgot about you...... Senior Brother Huang, come here. ”

waved his hand, and a person trotted over: "Third Senior Brother, what's wrong?"

"He's over to you. ”

After saying that, he strode to the backyard.

The person surnamed Huang looked at Ren Qiu with a cold expression: "My name is Huang Sheng, just call me Senior Brother Huang, come with me." ”

The two came to a corner, Huang Sheng looked at Ren Qiu, and shook his head: "Your physique is too poor, your qi and blood are too weak, and you are not suitable for martial arts training at all, especially our martial arts academy, I am afraid that if you can't survive for three months, you will be dismissed." ”

Trimester?

Ren Qiu arched his hand: "Senior Brother Huang, what does three months mean?"

The corners of Huang Sheng's mouth curled: "Literally, our martial arts academy, the fundamental practice of rolling stones, such as a big stone rolling down, the more you go back, the greater your strength, if your physique is not good, your qi and blood are weak, and the enemy is not killed, I am afraid that I will be wasted first." ”

"So the master and his old man set a rule, if you can't get started in three months, you will be dismissed. ”

"The entry is also very simple, just need to pour qi and blood, and pick up a hundred catties of boulders like light hair, even if you are getting started. ”

Huang Sheng glanced at him: "As for you, I don't think it's easy." ”

No wonder there are so many senior brothers, all of whom are quite strong and muscular, and it turns out that the root cause is this.

Thinking of this, Ren Qiu asked, "Senior Brother Huang, do we teach swordsmanship in our Martial Academy?"

"Swordsmanship?"

Huang Sheng pursed his lips disdainfully: "That's practiced by the girls, it's light and fluttering, it's useless, our martial arts academy doesn't teach this." ”

"Okay, I won't tell you more, I'll teach you the basic swallowing and exhaling first, and after three months, if you don't get started, then leave by yourself. ”

After that, he played a set of boxing techniques in his own eyes, and then supported his hands like hugging a boulder, moving slowly.

"For martial artists, qi and blood are fundamental, and you can figure it out for yourself. ”

After practicing a set of exercises, Huang Sheng left without looking back.

Ren Qiu's face was not very good-looking, he could see that Huang Sheng was perfunctory to him and was very cold to him, but it was only for the sake of Liu Zhuangzhuang's face that he patiently taught him.

didn't complain, spit out, took a few points that he had just written down, carefully scrutinized them, and practiced them by himself.

At the third pole of the sun, the middle-aged man walked out, followed by Liu Zhuangzhuang.

"Master~"

When the disciples saluted, the middle-aged man nodded: "Continue to practice martial arts." ”

......

Half a month later, Ren Qiu wore a gray robe and walked through the market to return home, Ren Ying pounced: "Brother, look at ...... you look"

The little hand handed over a withered horse, waiting for Ren Qiu's praise.

After playing with her for a while, I let her play alone.

Standing in the courtyard, concentrating and exhaling, suddenly his hand shook, and a cold light flashed out, like lightning, and in an instant, there was an afterimage of the Dao Dao in the void.

"In the past half month, it has not been without harvest. ”

Ren Qiu muttered to himself, pinched his arm, and actually had some muscles, and he had grown a lot taller.

The martial arts academy will provide a unique decoction every day, and after drinking it, the whole body will be hot, such as entering the stove, and the result will be twice as effective with half the effort after practicing.

Even with his weak body, the effect is very great, and now his whole person looks not much different from a normal teenager.

"There are two and a half months left, so I have to buy more meat, and I have to inquire about that unique medicine. ”

In the past half a month, he was inconspicuous and not outstanding, he only cared about practicing martial arts by himself, and he didn't go to ask Huang Sheng for advice, let alone Liu Zhuangzhuang.

It was as if the two had forgotten about him.

He can see that most of the people who can enter the martial arts academy are some of them, and even the children of the wealthy gentry in the county are practicing martial arts here.

The fact that he was able to enter the martial arts academy to practice martial arts was completely a contradiction between Liu Zhuangzhuang and Zhou Yuan, which made him pick up a bargain.

Thinking of this, I thought of the more than ten gold bars.

There is also swordsmanship, I still have to inquire, as for the county martial arts, there is no one to teach swordsmanship.

"Little sister, is anyone coming over today?"

"Yes, there were people who came in over the wall, and I hid and didn't notice me. ”

Ren Ying is a big ghost, tilting her head and proudly showing her two little tiger teeth, but she didn't bring Ren Qiu a smile.

Ren Qiu sighed, touched her head, and fell into deep thought.

......
