Volume 1 Mortal Chapter 21 Smell the Rooster and Dance

Three days passed, and early in the morning, more than a hundred new disciples were gathered in the martial arts arena. A sturdy martial artist in his forties stood in front of the group. There were five outer disciples standing in the back as assistants.

"Quiet!" the martial artist's voice was deep and loud, shocking and terrifying. The new disciples immediately fell silent.

"From today onwards, I will teach you foreign kung fu for six months. You are only candidate disciples of Tianluomen, and after six months, you will have to go through the entrance examination, and those who pass the examination will become official outer disciples. Those who can't pass the assessment will either go home or become a handyman at the outer door. Those who become a handyman can take the introductory examination every year until the age of sixteen. If you don't want to become a handyman, you must practice hard and not slack off. After the martial master finished speaking, he glanced at the candidate disciples.

Hearing his words, the disciples were in an uproar. Taichu Chu also muttered in his heart, not all of these people don't understand martial arts like him, and many of them come from martial arts families. If you can't pass the assessment and be driven back, then how to explain to your mother. Although they can still participate in the assessment in the coming year, how can those slaves still have time to practice martial arts? If they stay as slaves, they will have no future.

Ah Gou said: "It seems that when I was bought, I was used as a slave!" This is not unreasonable, even if those children of the family fail the exam, who will be willing to stay here as a slave, they will naturally go home. But Ah Gou is different, he was bought, and even if he failed the examination, he was not allowed to go home, and that was not arranged for him to be a slave in the first place! Ah Gou's fellow villagers were nominally going to accept disciples, but in fact they were going to buy slaves, just to save face and give them a chance to become outer disciples. But there is almost no chance that they will pass the test.

Taichu naturally understood what Ah Gou meant, he was not much better than Ah Gou, and he stayed here as a slave, so he was naturally not afraid of being chased and killed by the Shenji Gate, but what about his family, how to avenge his relatives, Zhai Yu couldn't die in vain. He straightened his chest to encourage Ah Gou, and at the same time encouraged himself: "Brother Dog, don't worry, isn't there still half a year's chance? ”

The martial artist and the five outer disciples expected that everyone would be in a commotion, and they were very patient to watch everyone talk about it. They don't lack time, these martial artists don't seek to improve, they are not young anymore, they are in this deep mountain and old forest, and the biggest problem every day is how to spend time.

After a cup of tea, the candidate disciples gradually quieted down. The martial artist continued: "Okay, instead of worrying about talking here, let's hurry up and train. The main purpose of our training is to improve the five basic qualities of your body: endurance, strength, agility, precision, and basic moves. After speaking, the martial artist led everyone to the martial arts arena. Pointing to the training equipment in the field, he continued: "Endurance, which is completed by running around the Tianluomen station, waking up in the morning no less than three laps of running training every day, this running is different from ordinary running, but running with weights. At this time, one of the outer disciples came over and gave everyone a demonstration. He took off his outer disciple's clothes, revealing his inner shorts and shorts. I saw heavy sandbags strapped to his legs, arms and waist. This is a lot of physical exertion for ordinary people. The candidate disciples were inevitably in a commotion.

This time, the martial artist didn't wait, and shouted, "Silence, I'll talk about the second training." The second outer disciple walked into the martial arts arena and picked up the two stone piers, lifting them horizontally and vertically, and dancing the two stone piers like flying. The two stone piers, each of which weighs at least more than 30 catties, which is still light, and the big stone piers are 100 catties each, and it is difficult to lift one, let alone dance two.

"You have all seen it, the strength training is through the stone piers in this battle. The warrior said, pointing to a row of stone piers in the middle of the field.

"The third training is agility. When fighting against others, you must listen to the six directions, see the eight directions, and quickly dodge the opponent's attacks. The martial master said, making a gesture, and the third outer disciple walked into the Flying Stone Formation. Touching the mechanism, the flying stone tied up with a rope wandered around and threw it at the disciple. The disciple dodged left and right, and eight stones flew around, but none of them could touch him.

The disciple jumped out of the stone formation, and the martial master continued: "The fourth training is precision training, and the method is very simple, use a wooden sword to pierce the hanging ring. The fourth disciple came out and picked up a wooden sword, and he slapped the ring with the wooden sword, and the ring immediately swung up. Then the disciple made different postures, and each sword stabbed into the ring accurately. The rings were the size of a fist, and they didn't look difficult.

The candidates finally breathed a sigh of relief, and they began to discuss it chaotically.

"Don't think it's easy, it's the hardest of the five trainings. Okay, let's move on to the fifth exercise. As a martial artist, you must learn the basic body movements. Tianluomen has compiled a set of introductory boxing methods specifically for the purpose of training everyone's body movements. This set of basic boxing techniques includes most of the basic martial arts movements such as jumping, rolling, and spinning. You have to practice this technique diligently. Every day, an outer disciple will come here to lead everyone to contact the beginner boxing method. As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the fifth inner disciple came out and played a set of introductory boxing techniques.

"Alright, let's start training, these five disciples are responsible for guiding you in the essentials of your movements. After saying that, the martial artist left without looking back.

These five days are not exactly the training, but these five outer disciples teach everyone the essentials of training. Those martial arts families naturally learn quickly, and some people don't need to learn at all. But dozens of people such as Taichu and Ah Gou don't know martial arts, and they learn much slower, and many people who don't understand go to those senior brothers for advice. Those disciples saw that they did not know martial arts, so they discriminated against them and did not teach them at all, and even scolded them angrily and drove them out of the field. Those outer disciples naturally understood in their hearts that almost all of these people who didn't know martial arts were going to be slaves, and they were the lowest status in the sect, and they couldn't compare with their status as outer disciples. A look of disgust.

The candidate disciples of Taichu and Ah Gou were also helpless, so they could only stand from afar and watch them practice and imitate. There are five disciples who don't know martial arts at all, in addition to Taichu and Ah Gou. At the beginning, he was the best, at least he practiced some external routines by himself, and he never stopped doing intensive training at home. He patiently instructed Ah Gou and the five disciples. Several people have also practiced on their own.

Five days later, when the outer disciples left, Taichu and Ah Gou got up at midnight (3 o'clock at night) every day, an hour earlier than others, and conducted ten laps of endurance training, which was more than three times as intense as the other disciples. Taichu understood the truth that the stupid bird flies first. If you are worse than others, you have to put in more effort, and hard work is more important than the golden key. These ten laps are an hour, and it is already five o'clock in the morning. This is the time to practice the introductory boxing technique in groups. Tatsushi and Shishi contact the assassination sword, take lunch breaks, and practice agility training in Flying Stone Tepe with Shinshi, followed by a quarter of an hour of meals. The training of stone piers is carried out in the unitary time and the 戌 time. Go to bed at 9 p.m.

These trainings are arranged by the sect, except for the introductory boxing method, which is always so punctual, no one cares about the rest at all. It is your own freedom to practice or not. In the first few days, there were still many people training, and the resources were insufficient, and Taichu and Ah Gou often couldn't grab the training equipment. After a few days, there were fewer and fewer people training, but after a little practice in the morning, the people disappeared. The Golden Nest is also a hero's mound, they have no pressure to survive, no ideals, no goals, and naturally no motivation to train. The start is not so important, the gap in life has already started here!

The huge martial arts training ground was where Taichu and Ah Gou trained. Those five disciples who don't know martial arts were simply appointed, and they were miscellaneous servants, so why did they suffer from this. Ah Gou also retreated several times, and asked Taichu to pull back to train with him. Ah Dog is also a diligent person, affected by the beginning, it is not easy to persevere, every day as before. What has happened in the past six months, only the two of them know.

Half a year has passed. On this day, everyone gathered in the martial arts arena, and the lecturer came again. Today is the day of the assessment. It is also the day that determines the fate of the primordial.

First, some inner disciples issued iron swords to the candidate disciples, one for each person. Then the martial artist took everyone to a cave to the west of the sect. The cave had an iron fence. Outside the cave is a gladiatorial arena with a radius of more than 300 meters, which is seven or eight meters deep and has ten ropes to climb up and down. If this was half a year ago, it would have been a problem for Taichu and Ah Dog to climb this rope, but now it is not a problem at all.

The martial artist said in a loud voice: "Today's entry assessment is a real battle of life and death, there are a hundred crypt wolves in this cave, anyone who can kill a crypt wolf in a quarter of an hour can become an official outer disciple." ”

After he finished speaking, he instructed several outer disciples to pull up the ropes tied to the cave fence. The fence door was pulled up, and a crypt wolf howled and rushed out, and then the outer disciples quickly closed the cave.

This crypt wolf is very ferocious, and a single crypt wolf can bite five or six hunting dogs to death. It is the most vicious beast in this mountain. Usually, the sect catches these crypt wolves and kills them to improve the lives of the sect's disciples. The sect assessment was actually to kill a vicious wolf, and the five disciples who didn't know martial arts first shouted: "I quit, I am willing to be a slave." ”

The martial artist said: "Those who are willing to take the initiative to withdraw from the assessment stand behind me!" Suddenly, more than a dozen people ran behind the martial artist. Naturally, those five were among them. Ah Gou also had the intention of retreating.
