In the next few days, Lu Jian was called by Elder Meng to reprimand him for destroying the facilities of the Heavenly Book Pavilion and fined him some silver taels, but he also lived a quiet life.

Lu Jian told Jiang Shang the secret of Shi Ping's reversal.

The two teenagers couldn't suppress their excitement for a long time.

He also knew that the matter was very important, and he did not dare to talk about it again, for fear that it would be ruined if he was heard.

Time passed day by day, and the New Year was coming soon.

There was some joy on everyone's face, after all, the Chinese New Year is the most important festival of the year.

Red lanterns were hung everywhere in the sect, and all kinds of wedding posts were everywhere.

It is also because of the Chinese New Year, some disciples are going to take leave to go home, and Jiang Shang is also one of them.

Jiang Shang originally invited Lu Pressure to go back with him for the New Year, but Lu Pressure thought that their family was a famous family and had too many rules, so he was afraid that he would not be adaptable, so he rejected him.

The people who live with me have all gone one after another in the past few days, and Lu Press, who is only one person, is a little lonely.

However, he has been coming over this kind of day since he was a child, and after a while, he got used to it.

The lively sect has become much deserted, and only a few disciples have chosen to spend the New Year in the sect.

Lu Quan's daily life is still the same, reading books, practicing boxing, and practicing swords.

On this day, Lu Jian was practicing boxing in the practice field, and he didn't dare to practice the reverse boxing method he had realized, but he just practiced it in a conventional way, but in terms of the qi method, he used the reverse method.

Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the fist style has not changed, but I always feel that the fierce style has changed slightly.

Lu Jian fist walks like a dragon, agile and agile.

Suddenly, a voice shouted, "Look at the fist!"

A figure flew from nowhere and smashed into Lu Jian with a fist.

Lu Jian didn't have time to think about it, and the fist style was naturally swung out, and it was smashing into the flaw of that punch.

"Huh!" With a sound, the person who threw the punch quickly retreated, and was able to avoid Lu Pressure's punch.

Lu Jian instantly woke up and quickly raised his eyes.

I saw Elder Meng covering his left arm and looking at Lu Jian in surprise.

Lu Press's heart is not good, is it exposed?

He hurriedly saluted Elder Meng and said, "Elder is good!"

Elder Meng looked at Lu Jian and asked suspiciously, "Your kid's fist style just now is a bit strange, you can actually subconsciously punch and sweep my arm!"

Lu Jian said in a panic: "Elder forgive the sin, the disciple just added some disciples' body methods to the fist method of this sect, so it may be slightly different from the authentic fist method of this sect, don't blame the elder!"

Elder Meng shook his head and said, "I know that you have a very powerful set of footwork, you can't be too rigid in practicing martial arts, it's a good thing to be able to add your strengths to your boxing techniques and make changes, but everything must be done step by step, don't rush it!"

Lu Jian nodded yes.

Elder Meng stroked his beard and smiled: "It's really old, I wanted to test your boxing skills, but I was hit by you, hey, I can't do it if I don't accept old age!"

Lu Quan said embarrassedly: "It's the disciple who is messing around, he didn't punch according to the normal routine, and the elder Duo Haihan!"

Elder Meng waved his hand and said, "Between the fight of life and death, there is no conventional routine to punch, naturally it is a good punch that can hurt people! I'm just afraid that your foundation is not stable, so you forcibly add something else, which will make your foundation bad!"

Lu Jian knew that Elder Meng cared about him, and he was moved in his heart and nodded yes.

Elder Meng said to Lu Quan: "I came to you to ask where you are going for the New Year, if you don't have a place to go, you can come to me for the New Year!"

Lu Jian said gratefully: "Thank you, Elder, I celebrate the New Year by myself every year, and I'm used to it, it's okay!"

Elder Meng's eyes kicked and said, "Since there is nowhere to go, then come to me for the New Year, so it's decided!"

Lu Jian saw the old man's eyes glaring, and knew that he couldn't shirk it anymore, so he agreed.

Elder Meng chatted with Lu Jian for a few more words and left.

Lu Jian secretly wiped the sweat on his head, these little secrets really can't be exposed!

As the New Year got closer and closer, Lu Jian also went to the mountain to buy some supplies, and by the way, he also made some wine as a gift for Elder Meng.

In the blink of an eye, it was the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and Lu Pressure came to the hut where Elder Meng lived early in the morning with his gifts.

Elder Meng had already prepared a table of food, which was very hearty.

After the old and the young sat down, poured the wine, and began to chat.

Lu Jian has rarely celebrated the New Year with others for so many years, so he is still quite excited.

Elder Meng took a sip of wine and asked Lu Quan, "You know, there are so many new disciples, why do I look at you differently?"

Lu Jian also took a small sip, shook his head and smiled: "The disciple is ignorant, I don't know!"

Elder Meng smiled, "Maybe I think you are the most like me when I was younger!"

Elder Meng took a mouthful of food into his mouth and said, "I just entered the sect that year, and I was full of spirit, and I always wanted to change something!

As he spoke, Elder Meng sighed.

Lu Jian saw the sense of loss in the old man's eyes, and he didn't know how to persuade him.

Elder Meng may not have talked to anyone for a long time, and when he talks about the past, he can't help it.

"Back then, Elder Kong, I, and two elders called the sect the Four Uniques, we cultivated together and resisted the enemy together. At that time, the Horse Temple did not have its current reputation, and it was only a small sect in the rivers and lakes, but because of our blood and because we fought for our ideals, the Horse Temple became stronger and stronger!"

Lu Jian saw that the old man recalled the past, and he couldn't bear to disturb, but just filled the wine glass in front of him.

"It was really a time of passion, although our cultivation was not very high, but we united and defeated many invincible enemies, and let many enemies who were far stronger than us fall at our feet. ”

Elder Meng's eyes lit up, as if he had returned to the era of the Prancing Horse and the Wild Sword Flower.

Lu Jian was also moved by the old man's tone, and unconsciously took a sip of wine and praised: "Good boy!"

Elder Meng took a few more sips of wine, his face flushed, but his eyes glowed.

"In the rivers and lakes at that time, what a glory it was to mention that empty dreams were not crazy"

Lu Quantou heard these four words and asked, "What does this empty dream mean by not being crazy?"

"It's Lao Kong, me, Xiao Bu, and Crazy 。。。。。。 ”

When it came to the last name, Elder Meng couldn't say any more.

Lu Jian found that Elder Meng's face suddenly turned pale and he was a little distracted.

Elder Meng took a sip of wine, choked all at once, and coughed.

Lu Jian cautiously asked, "What about later?"

"Later, as the sect became stronger and stronger, these four people fell apart, hey!"

Speaking of this, Elder Dream let out a long sigh, seemingly extremely sad.

Elder Meng wiped his face, and said to Lu Jian embarrassedly: "Boy, as soon as people are old, they love to remember, and when they are older, what are you talking about here, come, drink!"

Lu Jian smiled and said: "Everyone has good memories, I actually love to listen to them, and I also yearn for the demeanor of the elder at that time!"

Elder Meng was overjoyed by Lu Quan's words, and said with a smile, "I said that I like you, just because you have a simplicity that is different from other disciples, these disciples all want to be prominent, and they do not hesitate to use all kinds of means, but they completely lack the heart full of hope for the future!"

Lu Jian smiled: "You are praising me too much, in fact, Jiang Shang and they are also full of expectations and responsibilities for their own family and our sect!"

Elder Meng nodded and said, "They are also motivated, but their utilitarian spirit is too strong!"

Elder Meng took another sip of wine, rubbed his fingers on the edge of the wine glass and said slowly, "Boy, I have something to ask you, you must be honest with me!"

Lu Quan's heart suddenly sudden, and he pretended to be calm and said, "Elder, please ask, I must know everything!"

Elder Meng opened his mouth, as if he didn't know how to speak, hesitated for a long time, and sighed: "Forget it, don't ask, some words are wrong as soon as they come out!"

Elder Meng stared at Lu Jian a few times, and looked at Lu Jian restlessly.

Elder Meng suddenly said, "I'm just advising you, don't use the punch you threw at me today in front of anyone!

The old man's face was grim and even a little nervous.

Lu Quan's face changed, thinking that the old man might know something, but he nodded and shook his head.

Elder Meng didn't mention this topic anymore, he just drank with Lu Press.

At this time, it was already time for the child, and suddenly firecrackers rang out outside, which was deafening.

Lu Jian smiled and gave the old man a salute and said, "Happy New Year!"

Elder Meng laughed and said, "Happy New Year, Happy New Year!"

After speaking, he took out a small red bag from his arms and handed it to Lu Press: "Take it, this is the custom here!"

Lu Jian took it over and thanked him with a smile!

Elder Meng drank a little too much, he got up and pulled Lu Lu to walk out of the door, and said, "Let's go, go see the cannon!"

Despite his staggering steps, Elder Dream was still in good spirits.

The old and the young took each other and came to the courtyard.

At this time, up and down the mountain, firecrackers rang out, the firelight flashed one after another, and the dazzling fireworks exploded the night sky, raising bursts of smoke.

Up and down the mountain, constantly lit up by firecrackers.

Elder Dream looked up at the sky and was silent for a long time.

Lu Jian rubbed his face, which was a little numb by the cold wind, with his hand, and sighed: "It's so beautiful!"

Elder Meng muttered, "Yes, such a peaceful day, I don't know how long it will last!"

Lu Jian looked at Elder Meng puzzled, not knowing why he had such feelings.

Elder Dream didn't explain, just stared at the night sky, and it seemed that at this moment, he was back to the hot-blooded rivers and lakes of his youth.

The cold wind outside was getting stronger and stronger, and gradually, snowflakes fell in the sky.

At first, it was small, and after a while, it got bigger and bigger, and finally, the sky was full of fist-sized snowflakes falling down, and soon, the mountain was all white.

"It's snowing!" Lu Quan shouted excitedly.

Elder Dream stretched out his hands to catch the snowflakes in the sky, and at this moment, he did as he did when he was a child.

"Back then, it was also such a heavy snowfall, it's a pity, it's a pity!" Elder Meng muttered to himself.

There is no trace of heavy snow, and there are traces in the heart.
