Chapter 15: Fortune

The scholar has been in Pingyang City for a long time, but he is still barely fed.

When he glanced at Yu Yanke standing in the distance, with a slight hesitation, the corners of his lips hooked, and he stretched out his hand to Yu Yanke to greet him.

Yu Yanke stood there for a while, and then walked over decisively.

Although he made up his mind to come to talk to the scholar, when he really saw the poor scholar, Yu Yanke inevitably remembered the powerlessness of facing this person in the Flower Temple that night, and even a trace of fear that Yu Yanke didn't want to admit.

It's just that Yu Yanke has always been a person who will not give up if he has made up his mind.

He trusts his instincts a lot, and he trusts that scholars will not work against him.

Because he knew that such a character like an ant in the eyes of scholars, except for a little luck, there was no place to attract scholars.

And that's exactly what happened.

If it weren't for his luck that attracted scholars, it is estimated that scholars would not have noticed him, even if he is really talented, but it will take a long time to precipitate before he grows to the point that scholars have to step up for him.

The current Yu Yanke, a character of the level of a scholar, will not care.

Yu Yanke stood still in front of the small case of the scholar's side, looking at the scholar who was lazily leaning on the old locust tree, and there was actually a trace of uncertainty in his heart.

But he still asked: "Sir......"

The scholar didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and interrupted him: "You haven't even figured out what your situation is, so don't ask those trivial questions." ”

Yu Yanke was stunned, not knowing why this person said this.

The scholar thought about it, stood up, packed up the things on the small case, and after cleaning up for a while, he saw Yu Yanke standing motionless in place, and immediately scolded: "Stinky boy, why are you standing there without helping me pack up my things?"

Yu Yanke didn't know what was going on, but he still helped him pack his things.

The scholar held a hug of rolled calligraphy and paintings, and he threw the small case under the locust tree, and then walked forward.

Yu Yanke didn't know what he wanted to do, so he stood still and didn't follow.

"Let's go?"

The scholar walked a little way and turned around and shouted.

Yu Yanke frowned slightly, and quickly followed.

The two of them walked one after the other, and slowly arrived at the Flower Temple.

The scholar put down his things, found a place that he thought was most comfortable in the temple of flowers, and sat down.

Actually, it's just a slightly larger and thicker futon.

The scholar sat there and motioned for Yu Yanke to sit too. Yu Yanke sat down on the spot and looked at him suspiciously.

"Come to me. ”

The scholar glared at Yu Yanke and said angrily.

Yu Yanke felt that this person was really weird.

But he still moved to the scholar's side.

The scholar smiled and said, "There are some words that I can't understand in that person's eyes, so I took you to this flower temple." ”

Yu Yanke nodded, he didn't know why the scholar only showed the appearance of a senior master in front of him, but thinking about it, he had no malicious intent. So Yu Yanke didn't bother to think about it.

The scholar reached out and shook his hand in front of Yu Yanke, who was shocked to see that he suddenly pulled out an illusory little snake in his body.

Its golden light was shining, and there was a mist around it, and it was pinched out by life, and it looked a little annoyed, and it was roaring silently at the scholar.

"Little thing, the head is so perverse before the horns are born, if you really get the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and turn into a real dragon, wouldn't it be even more rebellious?

The scholar slapped the little snake that the mist turned into a slap and scattered it, and when the little snake reorganized, it was already much more honest, and Ai Ai looked at the scholar in anticipation.

"Sir, this is ......."

What happened in front of him made Yu Yanke's scalp tingle, and he had never heard of it.

The scholar looked at the little snake and said to Yu Yanke: "This is the luck given to you by others, it's just that the appearance is a little unpleasant, it has been consumed these days, and although your martial arts cultivation has improved rapidly, it still lacks stamina at a certain stage." ”

Yu Yanke was stunned for a moment, and said: "The realm of a hundred tricks is a bottleneck, what Mr. said, the kid doesn't understand very well." ”

The scholar shook his head: "Bearing luck, what is the bottleneck, if you are a true son of fortune, there is no such feeling that you have no way to enter." ”

When Yu Yanke heard this, his face was thoughtful.

"In fact, your own qualifications are only medium, someone gave you heavenly luck, which invisibly improved your qualifications, but these are not important, the important thing is that this luck is not yours, and you actually have no connection with it, you are like a person who is empty but does not know it, which makes people envious and makes people ridicule. ”

The scholar said something different from what he said before, and Yu Yanke vaguely grasped some.

He said, "Sir, you said earlier that I was consuming this luck, and now you say that it has nothing to do with me, so how can I consume it?"

"Because it can't be replenished, it can't grow, it's like water without a source, it will slowly dry up eventually. But after all, it is in your body, improving your qualifications, so you can rise overnight, but it can't grow, and it can't form a connection with you, and you naturally lack stamina. ”

The scholar thought for a while and added: "In other words, your change is actually not given to you by this luck, but was left by someone unintentionally, and you are now almost gnawing away from that old book, so your entry has slowed down." ”

"Consumption is actually its self-consumption in order to grow. The scholar explained carefully, for fear that the young man would not understand.

Yu Yanke listened carefully, and suddenly remembered what the ancestor said, remembering that day the ancestor clearly said that he wanted him to seize the time to stabilize the opportunity, at that time he didn't know what it meant, but now after the scholar's explanation, he roughly understood.

"Sir, how shall I do it?"

Yu Yanke asked.

The scholar pondered for a while and said with a smile: "Hide from the sky and cross the sea, and turn him into himself." ”

Yu Yanke was helpless, is there any difference between saying this and not saying it?

The scholar waved his hand, pushed the little snake into Yu Yanke's body, and said: "If you want to really grow up, the comfort nest of the Yu family will definitely not work, the way of heaven has always favored the people of Limin, you have to go to the world to walk around, it is possible to integrate with the avenue." ”

"Is merging with the Tao the key to turning the other into oneself?"

Yu Yanke grasped the key.

The scholar smiled: "The child can be taught." ”

Subsequently, the scholar said: "The Yu family has played a big game of chess on you, if you don't leave the Yu family as soon as possible, there will be changes." ”

Yu Yanke didn't understand and was confused.

"I won't hurt you. The scholar said seriously: "Because I am also gambling." ”

Yu Yanke instinctively felt a chill.

"In this world, some people are using sentient beings as chess, everyone is playing against them, everyone is gambling. ”

The scholar stood up and walked to the gate of the Flower Temple, staring at the distant sky, his gaze far away.

Yu Yanke also stood up, a little at a loss.

"Remember, in this world, except for your parents, no one is really unconditionally good to you. The scholar turned his head, approached Yu Yanke, and stroked his head with his warm palm: "Including me, although I really want you to have a good life, I am still using you and making a bet with you." ”

Yu Yanke didn't know why the scholar said these words, so he just nodded in response.

"Would you like to travel the world with me?"

The scholar suddenly spoke.

Yu Yanke paused, thinking carefully, and the scholar did not urge him.

"Can you tell me, sir, why you have always treated me differently?"

Yu Yanke asked a question that he had been puzzled by in his heart.

The scholar shook his head and chuckled, but did not answer directly, but said: "You have not yet reached that realm, so talking to you is only harmful, what you need to know is that there is destined to be a fate between us." ”

This is the knowledge of the destiny of heaven.

The scholar said softly in his heart.

Yu Yanke pressed the question in his heart, saluted respectfully, and then slowly retreated.

"If you've thought about it, you can tell me and leave immediately. ”

Behind him, the scholar's voice came, but Yu Yanke did not respond and sped up his pace.

Some figured out what was going on with him, and Yu Yanke calmed down.

For the martial arts journey, more and more sincere.

He finally decided to go to a place where he could exercise himself more.

That place is called Xiping Prison

As the name suggests, Xiping Prison is the place where Xiping County used to hold prisoners.

Ordinary people don't need to build a big prison to lock them up, all the people who are locked up here are martial artists who have committed crimes.

The Jianghu people actually don't have any concept of law, and these imprisoned martial artists are all guys who have committed human lives.

Of course, it is only the part that is caught, and there is a large part, and the official forces actually have no way to deal with them.

This is also the territory of the Yunlang Empire, and the official forces have suppressed the jurisdiction of these Jianghu martial artists very strictly.

And in this world, in addition to Gou Chen, because it is the world of martial arts, and there are strong people in charge, so the people in the rivers and lakes are willing to be harmonious, and the atmosphere is excellent.

And the places outside Gou Chen, the rivers and lakes have always been places where official forces are strictly guarded against and attacked.

Many years ago, Yunlang Jianghu was extremely powerful, and people with intentions secretly contributed to the troubles, causing a sensational martial arts chaos in the world, and because of this, it led to a strong person in Yunlang's long-term deep palace.

That man is rumored to be a eunuch, but he has extremely terrifying strength, with only a pair of hands as delicate as a woman, the head of the martial arts in the cholera world at that time was defeated and retreated, and even the Holy Venerable Dharma was beaten to pieces by the eunuch, and finally the eunuch killed the saint with his fist.

The eunuch became famous in a war and was respected as a martial saint by the world.

Then, the angry Yunlang court mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress those rebellious martial artists, and later, not only the rebellious martial artists, but also those innocent Jianghu people also suffered, and the entire Yunlang Jianghu was beaten to pieces by the official forces, and those Jianghu martial artists either took refuge in the official forces or absconded, anyway, one by one, the end was extremely miserable.

And the people in the rivers and lakes finally realized how strong the power of the official family was, and for a while, the people in the whole world were silent and took it as a warning.

To this day, the Yunlang Empire's control over the rivers and lakes has not been relaxed, and the people of the rivers and lakes in Yunlang can be said to be unsatisfactory and have long lost their former sharpness.

But I also have to admit that the people on the rivers and lakes are indeed some things that only rely on personal preferences, and it is only a matter of two or three sentences from quarrels to drawing knives to killing, so countless martial artists have been imprisoned everywhere.

This is also Yun Lang, and in any other place, these reckless men will only be more rampant and ruthless.

Xiping Prison is an institution under the jurisdiction of the Yu family.

In the past few days, Cheng Jian has imprisoned no less than tens of thousands of martial artists.

Later, this place is not only a pure prison, but also a place for the children of the Yu family to exercise, but most of these sparring partners are just fierce people.

The small fight in the family martial arts hall is here, and it is really a little impossible to get on the stage.
