Wu Hou followed Mai Wenxiang upstairs and entered Mai Wenxiang's house. This is a set of four bedrooms and one living room, with a large area, almost 180 square meters, which shows that Mai Wenxiang's family conditions are good. Unlike Wu Hou's home, although it is in the same community, Wu Hou's house is only a two-bedroom apartment of 80 square meters.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a big golden retriever running towards Mai Wenxiang, raising his two front paws very affectionately and lying on Mai Wenxiang's body.

Mai Wenxiang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, there are guests, don't make trouble." ”

This big golden retriever probably remembered Wu Hou, who had jumped out of the window and came in, and was still a little hostile to him, so he shouted at Wu Hou twice. Wu Hou glared at it, and it immediately fell silent and hid behind Mai Wenxiang. Wu Hou felt funny, and thought, I treat tigers as pets, not to mention that you, a dog, dare to be fierce to me.

Wu Hou said: "I also have pets, but not here, at my grandmother's house." ”

"Really, do you like pets too? What are they? and dogs?" asked Wu Hou in surprise.

Wu Hou replied: "No, it's a tiger." ”

Mai Wenxiang was stunned for a moment, and said disdainfully: "Cut, bragging." ”

Wu Hou smiled and didn't explain much, he couldn't help but look in when he saw a room with the door open. There was a lot of gym equipment, sandbags, boxing gloves, and an antique wooden stake.

Seeing Wu Hou probing his brain and looking in, Mai Wenxiang walked in here with him and explained: "This is my dad's gym, and he will do sports here when he is fine." ”

Wu Hou looked at these equipment with envy, but he was very interested in the wooden stake standing in the corner. He asked, "Is this your dad's too?"

Mai Wenxiang replied to him: "No, this is my grandfather's, but he has been dead for a long time." ”

"Oh, sorry. Wu Hou was a little embarrassed.

Mai Wenxiang smiled and said, "It's okay, let's do our homework." ”

"Good. Wu Hou agreed.

The two opened their schoolbags on the desk, took out their homework, and wrote down seriously. Mai Wenxiang's grades are better than Wu Hou's, although Wu Hou is studying hard now, but the basic knowledge is not good, so many places have to consult Mai Wenxiang. Mai Wenxiang didn't feel annoyed, and always explained to Wu Hou very seriously.

After writing homework like this for a while, there was a knock on the door, Mai Wenxiang got up to open the door, and saw his father who was full of alcohol, supported by his mother next to him.

Mai Wenxiang asked, "Why did you come back so early today?" ”

Her mother replied, "If you come back a little later, you will have to be unconscious." ”

Mai Wenxiang's father was a little drunk, but it was okay, and he said: "Don't smear me in front of my daughter, am I the kind of person who will get drunk when I see wine? ”

"What kind of friends, why don't you come over and have a competition, select a few outstanding people from them, focus on training, and make money for yourself in the future. Mai Wenxiang's mother said angrily: "Aren't you an example, you have been fighting for half your life and got a secret injury, if it weren't for luck, someone hired you as a referee when you came back, and our mother and daughter would have to follow you to drink the northwest wind." ”

The man who was counted down was not angry, and said with a dry laugh: "It's not that I didn't drink the northwest wind." ”

His wife gave him a roll of the eyes, pushed him to the sofa, and saw Wu Hou in front of the desk. Wu Hou stood up and called out obediently: "Hello uncle and aunt." ”

Mai Wenxiang explained: "This is my classmate, who came here to do my homework with me. ”

Mai Wenxiang's mother smiled gently at Wu Hou and said, "Hello. ”

And when her father saw Wu Hou, his eyes lit up, thinking in his heart that this little guy was very strong. Although Wu Hou was wearing a school uniform, the muscles all over his body looked very obvious, so Mai Wenxiang's father noticed it at a glance. He stood up, circled around Wu Hou, nodded again and again, patted Wu Hou's muscles with his hand, and said, "The young man is good, he has exercised." ”

Wu Hou replied embarrassedly: "No, just go to school and run after school." ”

Mai Wenxiang saw her father, looking at Wu Hou like a prey, and said a little unhappily, "Dad, what are you doing?"

"It's okay, communicate with your classmates. He turned his head to look at Wu Hou again and said, "Little guy, my name is Mai Weili, I used to be a boxer, and now I am a referee of Tough Guy Co., Ltd., are you interested in playing in our company?"

Wu Hou wondered in his heart, this Mai Wenxiang's father was too hospitable, and he invited himself to his company as a guest when they met for the first time. He replied with some embarrassment: "No, uncle, I'm still in school." ”

"It's okay, I'll pick you up when I have time. "Mak Weili seems to have made a decision for Wu Hou.

Wu Hou looked at Mai Weili, who was full of alcohol, and thought to himself that he must have drunk too much, so I better leave quickly, so he said goodbye to Mai Wenxiang and left in a hurry.

Mai Wenxiang, who closed the door again, pouted and said, "Dad, you see you scared people away." ”

Mak replied absentmindedly: "How so." ”

Mai Wenxiang was a little unhappy and went back to the room. Her mother came over and sat down next to Mak Weili and said, "Don't be full, you have nothing to do, he's still a child." ”

Mai Weili, who was thinking about things in his heart, heard his wife's words and retorted: "What's wrong with the child, my father taught me boxing since I was walking, and later if it wasn't for the poverty of my family, I changed my career to boxing, maybe I would have opened a martial arts gym now." This kid is good, the layman can only see that he is strong, and the insider can see at a glance that he has a foundation. ”

Mai Weili's wife asked, "What do you mean, he practices martial arts?"

Mai Weili nodded and said: "Well, I can see that the steps are light and powerful, I used some strength when I slapped him just now, but this kid didn't move at all, and the lower plate was very stable, if it was another child, I would shoot those two times, and I would have to stumble a few steps without lying on the ground." ”

"I really can't see it, Xiangxiang still has this classmate. Mak Weili's wife couldn't believe it.

Mai Weili was about to go to the toilet to wash, and before getting up, he said: "I was seen by a layman of yours, I have been boxing for all these years, and I have fought in vain." ”

During the day the next day, Wu Hou, as usual, ended his day at school. When he met Mai Wenxiang in the morning, Mai Wenxiang asked him if his father's arrogant appearance made him unhappy yesterday, and Wu Hou told her that he didn't, so she was relieved.

After school in the afternoon, Mai Wenxiang made an appointment with a few girls to buy posters of popular stars together, and Wu Hou had to go home by himself. But when he walked out of the school gate and had just run a short distance, he ran into Mak Weili.

Mai Weili sat in the car, rolled down the window glass, and shouted at Wu Hou: "Get in the car, uncle will take you to a place." ”

Wu Hou wanted to refuse, but Mai Weili was gracious, so he had to obediently get in the car. Mak Weili drove around and around and took Wu Hou to the bottom of a building.

Mak Weili parked the car, Wu Hou also got out of the car, and walked into the building through the gate on the first floor under the leadership of Mak Weili. This building is so large that it is estimated to rank among the top three in the city. Mak Weili introduced to Wu Hou: "This is our company, mainly training some young people... Well, how to put it, is to train young people and make them physically stronger. ”

Wu Hou listened to this explanation and laughed a little dumbfounded. I thought to myself, although I haven't been here, I've heard more or less about what your company does.

Mai Weili took Wu Hou to visit the company, there is a gym, a lounge, a bathing room, and there are many empty rooms with sponge pads. In addition, there are several floors on the upper floor, and he did not take Wu Hou to visit, saying that it is used for competitions. In the end, he took Wu Hou to his office, asked Wu Hou to sit down, and then solemnly explained his thoughts to Wu Hou.

Mai Weili looked at Wu Hou's somewhat immature face and said, "Little guy, uncle can see it, you have a foundation, have you practiced? Without further ado, Uncle will discuss something for you, okay?"

Wu Hou asked, "What's the matter?"

Mai Weili saw that Wu Hou had no intention of refusing, and said seriously: "Recently, there is a very powerful large group that came to our company to recruit people, and wanted to hold a competition here, and the top three winners had a cash prize of 50,000 yuan for the first place, 30,000 yuan for the second place, and 10,000 yuan for the third place. This is not over, the three winners will receive the professional training of that big group, and in the future, they will go to a bigger ring to strive for higher glory and wealth!

When Wu Hou heard this, he thought to himself that he didn't care about any professional training, no matter how professional a person was, he didn't have his own master's specialty. But the cash reward of tens of thousands of yuan really tempted Wu Hou, with that money, Wu Hou can buy a lot of things he wants, limited edition game consoles, a computer, a mobile phone, these are all things that Wu Hou dreams of.

After all, it's a teenager, and it's fake not to be playful.

So Wu Hou thought about it for a while, stopped hiding, and said, "Can I participate in the competition? Will I be told that I am too young to participate?"

Mai Weili saw that Wu Hou was interested, and hurriedly said: "No, I will introduce you, but if you win, I will score 30% of the bonus." ”

Divided into three, that's a lot, Wu Hou protested a little, and said, "Why?"

Mai Weili laughed and said, "If you can skip school, follow those few people from the big group, receive professional training, and win more games, then I don't want these three to do." ”

Wu Hou didn't understand.

Mak continued: "Because you were introduced by me, if you win the competition and go to professional training, you can participate in bigger competitions and win more prize money in the future. Then when you win, the gang will give me a percentage of the winnings. But you're still in school, and you're too young to participate in big competitions, so you probably won't be able to go until you graduate, so I'll have to draw 30% of your prize money. ”

Wu Hou thought about it in his heart, and what Mai Weili said also made sense. However, he did not immediately agree to participate, but told Mak Weili that he would go home and think about it for a few days. Mak agreed, just to let him make a decision as soon as possible, because the match was scheduled for the next Sunday.

Before leaving, Mak Weili sent Wu Hou to the door and asked him, "By the way, who are you learning from?"

Wu Hou hesitated for a moment and said, "Can I not say it?"

Mak Weili was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, of course." ”

After Wu Hou left, Mai Weili sat down behind the table and smoked a cigarette, muttering, "Is it a secret? It seems that it is not a martial arts sect that can be seen in the eyes of the public." Could it be a family of hidden inheritance? Looking at his poor and sour appearance, he doesn't look like a famous family. ”

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Mak Weili retracted his thoughts and said please come in. Then the door was opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes came in, and when he entered the door, he said, "Lao Mai, who is the child just now?"

Mai Weili said angrily: "Who else can it be, the seedlings for your group." ”

After hearing this, the middle-aged man frowned and said, "What is your group, is it our group?" Although you don't wash your hands dry, you have been a member of the company all your life. The company he said is naturally not the tough guy company that Mak Weili now works for, but the big group to which Mak Weili belonged before.

When Mai Weili heard him correct himself, he pretended to be humble and said: "Yes, yes, Mr. Jiang is right, what you taught is a lesson." ”

The middle-aged man known as Mr. Jiang, seeing Mai Weili like this, hurriedly smiled and said: "Oh, Brother Li, don't be like this, you are an old employee, and my little brother doesn't dare to teach you a lesson." ”

Mai Weili rolled his eyes and said to himself: "Make money, making money is the last word." ”

Wu Hou, who was walking on the way home, thought about what Mai Weili said, and was a little hesitant. Although he won the White Tiger in the race, he was able to climb up and down the steep mountain wall of Pinghuang Mountain with his bare hands and only manpower, and he was more confident that with his current self, he could beat four or five normal people. But if he said that he would compete with someone who had also practiced martial arts, he was still a little worried.

He felt that he was still just a beginner after all, and he had never competed with his peers, and he had no way of knowing how deep he was, whether it was high or low, so he was at a loss at the moment.

In fact, Wu Hou didn't know that his so-called entry was the work of others for ten years. Duanmu Shenjiu opened him up at that time, he said that he started too late, and Duanmu Shenjiu helped him open his mind, saving him ten years of suffering.

The ten years of suffering that were missing were the ten years of hard work of other martial arts practitioners.
