Chapter 353: Li Mochou's arrangement
The flames were soaring into the sky, and the smell of scorching lingered for several miles, only to see the carriage in the distance slowly coming, it was Hong Qigong and the others who had finished dealing with those stragglers.
"Mother~" Before the carriage arrived, a figure fell from above, lying on the ground and crying.
Feng'er and the girls hurriedly got out of the car to check, and saw that his palms and knees were bruised, and when he took out the handkerchief and was about to bandage him, the young man broke away from the girls and ran towards the burning village desperately.
Yang Guo clamped his arm and scolded, "Are you looking for death?" His eyes couldn't help but look at his strength, and he was shocked: "Why is there no knife wound on this child......'s neck?"
"You...... You let go of me, I'm going to find my mother. The young man tried his best to break free of Yang Guo's grip with his other hand, his little face was already flushed, but his strength was not much worse.
"Your mother is not inside, I have set up a tombstone for her, come with me!" Yang Guo didn't care whether he agreed or not, so he pulled him over.
Fortunately, this village is surrounded by mountains and rivers, but it is a rare feng shui treasure land, it is said that the mountain is in charge of people, and the water is rich, and it can be buried here, at least for the younger generations, it can be regarded as a kind of comfort!
Yang Guo pointed to the wordless tombstone and said indifferently: "Your mother is buried here, cry hard if you want to cry!"
When the young man, who was still in tears, heard this, he choked for a long time, but he didn't cry again, only to see him grit his teeth and kowtow three times to the grave, and the flesh and blood on his forehead were already blurred.
As if he had made up his mind in his heart, the young man suddenly turned to Yang Guo and said, "Benefactor, please, please take me as an apprentice, I want to avenge my mother and fellow villagers." ”
Yang Guo was stunned, shook his head and said, "I don't have the idea of accepting apprentices for the time being, but if you want to apprentice, I can let you worship the most powerful people in the world today, how about it?" He still has a lot of troubles in the future, and he really doesn't have time to teach such a child, let alone delay him because of this.
The young man gritted his teeth, his face was stubborn, and he would answer Yang Guo's words.
At this time, Guo Jing led Huang Yaoshi and his colleagues to rush over, saw the wordless tombstone in front of him, and thought that it was his own incompetence that failed to save this woman, and he repented in his heart, and bowed down to this tombstone again.
Yang Guo saw that he didn't seem to give up, and he didn't believe himself, so he hurriedly introduced: "These seniors are all a few of the martial arts on the rivers and lakes, maybe you haven't heard of it, but you should have heard of Guo Daxia stationed in Xiangyang City! The one standing next to you is Guo Jing Guo Daxia, and these seniors behind me, every martial arts is not bad Guo Daxia, if you want to worship them as teachers, I will intercede for you and promise to let them take you into the door." ”
Sure enough, after hearing Guo Jing Guo Daxia's name, the young man's eyes flashed slightly, and then he couldn't help but fall silent, kneeling on the ground and still couldn't stand it.
Seeing this scene, everyone who came afterwards also understood, it turned out that this little guy wanted to worship Yang Guo as a teacher, and Yang Guo was unwilling to accept him, but listening to what he said, if he accepted this young man, it would be equivalent to changing Yang Guo's favor, and this deal was still a bit cost-effective.
With Yang Guo's age and talent at the moment, his future achievements are limitless, and it can be said that it is a matter of time before he becomes the number one in the world.
Hong Qigong has always been used to being casual, but he has always been concerned about the master of the beggar gang, but since Huang Rong, there has never been any disciple with decent martial arts talent in this beggar gang, and it will inevitably decline in the future.
With such a calculation in his heart, Hong Qigong spoke: "Child, how about you worship me as a teacher? Don't look at the tattered clothes I wear, even Guo Jing is an apprentice taught by me, if you worship me as a teacher, the old flower will definitely teach you and keep you to become a first-class master in the rivers and lakes." ”
Hong Qigong expected that no matter how stupid this child was, he would not be as stupid as Guo Jing back then, and even Guo Jing could be taught by him, so this child was naturally no problem.
Who knows, this young man didn't even raise his head, Yang Guo couldn't help frowning, and said clearly: "What's the matter?
The young man immediately trembled with fright, raised his head and bowed to Hong Qigong, and said, "Thank you seniors for your kindness, I'm ...... I still want to worship this big brother as a teacher. ”
"Ahem...... Okay!" Hong Qigong couldn't help coughing a few times and said with a little embarrassment.
As for the old naughty boy, he really has no idea of accepting apprentices anymore, unless Yang Guo asks for it in front of him, but seeing that this kid probably has no intention of worshipping others as teachers, he naturally won't join in the fun.
Huang Yaoshi knew that it was impossible, but seeing that this kid's eyes were full of ruthlessness, and his personality was quite resolute, he was a rare good seedling, and he also had a heart of love for talent, so he said: "Boy, why don't you follow me? If you want to become a martial arts master, I can pass on your lifelong learning, and it is not a problem to cross the martial arts; if you want to avenge your relatives, I can also teach you the five elements of the formation. It is enough to go to the court to be a general on the battlefield, or if you want to be rich and rich for a lifetime, I can teach you thaumaturgy to get rich. ”
After being reprimanded by Yang Guoshi, the young man didn't dare to ignore the words of others anymore, and bowed to Huang Yaoshi's direction, saying, "Thank you seniors for your kindness, I want to worship this big brother as a teacher." ”
He was born in poverty, in a poor rural area, he had never read poetry and etiquette, and he didn't know how to be tactful when he spoke, so he bluntly refused, regardless of how the two of them felt.
Yang Guo couldn't help but be annoyed when he saw the child being so stubborn, and said: "I don't know how much the martial arts of these two seniors are better than me, why do you have to worship me as a teacher?"
The tip of the young man's nose was sore, and he held back his tears and looked at the monument behind him, and choked up: "If you don't accept me as an apprentice, I'm afraid that this revenge will be difficult to repay for my life, so it's better to die directly in front of my mother's monument and go with her." ”
"Okay, then you will crash to death in front of this monument, if you don't crash, how can I accept you such a big talker. Yang Guo said coldly, his eyes were full of contempt, as if he really wished that this child would die.
Guo Jing and Guo Fu were dumbfounded, and when they were about to step forward to stop them, they were stopped by Huang Rong.
At this moment, the tears in the young man's eyes could no longer be held back, and he flowed down uncontrollably, only to see him wipe away the tears with his cuffs, stared at Yang Guo's eyes viciously, and said humiliatingly: "I hate you!"
With that, he slammed into the tombstone behind him, and just as his forehead was about to touch the stone monument, Yang Guo stopped him and knocked him unconscious with a knife.
He couldn't stop sighing: "Wronged!"
To be honest, Yang Guo didn't want to accept this child, not that he felt that his qualifications were not good, but that people who grew up with hatred since he was a child would not have a good end in the future, and he didn't want to harm this child's life because of his momentary pity.
His enemy is not the Mongol soldiers he just killed, nor the centurion, but the whole of Mongolia, it is only a matter of time before Mongolia unifies the world in the future, with the power of one person, he can still destroy Mongolia, on the contrary, in the end, it will be in vain, so why let him suffer for a lifetime!
Feng'er on the side came over and took over the young man in Yang Guo's hands, Guo Jing's father and daughter realized that he was just a test for this child, and he wouldn't be really ruthless enough to force a child to death.
After Li Mochou behind the women withdrew his gaze from the young man, he looked at Yang Guo, always with a smile on his face, which was intriguing.
After some twists and turns, everyone embarked on the return journey again, Guo Fu and others also had a new understanding of the brutality of the Mongolian soldiers, if the city of Xiangyang was broken, I don't know what kind of tragedy greeted the people, and the heart was more determined to hold Xiangyang.
Along the way, Yang Guo was silent, Guo Jing knew that he was in a heavy mood, and he didn't speak, so he walked until late at night, the night was low, the silver moon was in the sky, and there was no inn in front of him, so everyone had to find an open space to light a fire for one night.
Fortunately, all the people here are martial arts practitioners, and it is common to sleep in the open air, which is not unusual, it is nothing more than that Huang Rong is pregnant, which is inconvenient, but there is a carriage for her to rest, but it will not be infected with the wind cold and move the fetus.
After a while, Xiao Tao and a few people skillfully lit the firewood, thinking that they were running around with Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi, and they were not surprised by this situation, but Guo Fu and the Wu brothers couldn't help but complain a few times.
Yang Guo lit a fire alone on the side, put the young man flat on his side, and after half an hour, he only heard a few low moans from his side.
The young man slowly opened his eyes, only to see a dark patch in front of him, and a few firelights flashed under him, and when he saw this, he got up, and just saw Yang Guo, whose face was reflected by the firelight, and couldn't help muttering: "I...... I'm not dead?"
"Why do you have to worship me as a teacher, just because I helped your mother set up a tomb?" Yang Guo faintly guessed that he was only willing to worship himself as a teacher for this reason, but seeing his determined appearance, it seemed that there was more to it than that.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard this, the young man's eyes dodged, obviously he had something to hide.
Yang Guo frowned and asked, "I don't want my disciple to even hide his motives for apprenticeship. ”
A hint of joy flashed in the young man's eyes, but when he thought of promising others, how could he tell Yang Guo when she agreed, thinking of this, he couldn't help but bow his head and be silent.
"I asked this child to worship you as a teacher!" Li Mochou walked slowly from a distance and said, she had long known that Yang Guo was aware of it, and she would definitely ask this child for the reason, rather than making it difficult for a child, it was better to come out and make it clear herself.
Li Mochou sat beside Yang Guo and looked at him with a smile on his face, not feeling that there was anything wrong with this.
Yang Guo glanced at her helplessly and said, "Why are you, my own martial arts are not at home, how did you teach this child?"
On the contrary, Li Mochou said with a smile: "This kid will definitely be able to help you do something big in the future, you just have to accept it, it will be good for you and him." ”
"Really?" Yang Guo said with some confusion.
"Seriously!" Li Mochou said firmly.
Seeing her like this, Yang Guo couldn't help but quip: "Why haven't you seen you for a few years, Fairy Li has learned fortune-telling?"
"You just believe me!" said that, ignoring him, Li Mochou said to the young man again: "You just have to follow him to learn art, whether you can avenge your relatives in the future depends on him!"
The young man's eyes responded firmly, in addition to Li Mochou's request, the reason why he only worshiped Yang Guo as a teacher was because he set up a tombstone for his mother with his own hands, so that he would not even have a place to worship the dead in the future, which can be said to be a great favor to him.
