Chapter VI Hospital Fees
By the next day, the news that four disciples had entered the Huashan sect had already spread among the Huashan disciples.
The Huashan faction has always had extremely strict requirements for accepting disciples. Every three years, a group of teenagers with good qualifications are selected to enter the mountain gate.
These teenagers were never more than twelve years old. Because you are too old to practice martial arts, it is inevitable that you will not make much progress, and it will be difficult to achieve much in your life.
In the first three months of the Huashan faction, these teenagers were not Huashan disciples, and they could not learn the authentic Huashan exercises. Just let them start with a set of rotten Taizu long punches.
If he fails to practice this set of long fists within three months, it means that his heart is not tenacious enough, and he still has to be sent down the mountain.
And there are usually no more than three pavilions left in the middle of the ten pavilions.
Those teenagers who can make it to the end receive a set of gray-yellow disciple uniforms, and they can officially enter the disciple's academy to practice.
But the four people who came this time were not only about twenty years old after the trial.
If it wasn't for the connection, what else could it be?
It is said that Huashan is a hundred years of decency, and there are countless disciples. It should be that everyone is dedicated to martial arts, and all the heads and corners are magnificent.
But when Fang Zhongjin and his party came to the martial arts practice ground in the lower courtyard early in the morning, they were surprised to find that the martial arts practice ground was empty, and they didn't even see a single person.
Fang Zhongjin was not in a hurry, and found a place to cross-knee exercise at random. Although Lord Rabbit and Ge Rongxuan have been with "Tuo Nansheng" day and night for so long, they always remember in their hearts that he was the demon who killed two masters in a row with a teacup.
Ge Rongxuan usually doesn't like to talk too much, even a person like the rabbit who jumps out doesn't dare to provoke this "Tuo Nan Sheng" more.
Ge Rongxuan found another place to sit down, and Master Rabbit stuck to his side and talked to himself.
The hour was delayed for a long time, until the sky was already bright, and still no one came to the martial arts training ground to practice.
In this way, it made the three of them feel strange in their hearts. Could it be that the place where the lower house usually practices martial arts is not here?
Finally, after a long time, I saw Gai Xing yawning and coming to the martial arts field. As soon as he saw that the three people in the same room with him were indeed waiting in the martial arts field, he showed a clear smile.
I saw Gai Xing raising his hand at the three of them from a distance, and said, "I can't see you when I get up, so I know that you must have arrived at the martial arts training ground." For newcomers to the lower house, it was like this on the first day. Haha, it's a miserable wait. ”
Wearing a gray-yellow disciple's uniform, Master Rabbit said to him with a smile: "Senior Brother Gai is early, why don't we need to practice in the lower courtyard?"
Gai Xing suddenly saw that Master Rabbit was wearing the clothes of a male disciple, and he was no longer the delicate little lady he was yesterday. But he was still whiter and thinner than ordinary men, and his eyes were round and looking at him.
Gai Xing couldn't help blushing and said, "Our lower courtyard disciples are not as good as the other two courtyards. It's not uncommon for everyone to come a little late. ”
Speaking of this, sure enough, I saw a few more disciples lazily walking to the martial arts field. As soon as they saw Gai Xing, they said in a loud voice: "Gai Xing, why did you bring your junior disciples here so early? Is this to fight for the disciples of the Middle Court?"
His words caused several people around him to laugh.
Gai Xing also smiled and said: "How can we be? We are all born to be from the lower courtyard, and we are dead to be ghosts from the lower courtyard, and we will never be able to ascend to the middle courtyard in our lifetime." These juniors didn't know the rules here, so they came early. ”
Those lower courtyard disciples laughed again, and walked to the martial arts practice hall with their shoulders hooked. They glanced at the three newcomers, turned to Gai Xing, and said, "How are they doing kung fu?
Gai Xing also grinned and said, "I don't know kung fu." ”
The rest of the people had no scruples in their hearts. The first disciple said, "Well, since they have all entered the lower courtyard, everyone will be brothers from now on." ”
Fang Zhongjin looked at this group of people and felt strange in his heart. The Huashan faction has always been known for its rigorous governance. The Huashan disciples who walked outside all had small achievements in martial arts. When people in the rivers and lakes mention Huashan disciples, most of them have to give a thumbs up.
But now that he saw these Huashan disciples, it was completely different from what was rumored in the outside world. The sky was bright, and they came to the martial arts field one after another, and there was no trace of martial arts diligence and self-discipline at all.
What's more, judging from their words, they are all people with no ambition. Although I don't know what they think in their hearts, at least they don't have the slightest intention of getting rid of this lower house in words.
The person who spoke first looked tall and muscular, but the tired and greasy look on his face was annoying.
Gai Xing also nodded with a smile and said, "Senior Brother Le Rong is exactly what he said!" He felt that he lived in the same room as the three newcomers, so he had the obligation to introduce everyone. Gai Xing first said: "This is our senior brother Jiang Lerong in the lower court. The seniority is the deepest, and the people are also righteous. Take care of a few of our juniors and disciples. As long as you listen to him, you will never go wrong. ”
After that, he turned his head and introduced the three new junior disciples one by one to this Huashan disciple named Jiang Lerong.
Fang Zhongjin and the three of them each called "Senior Brother Jiang". That Jiang Lerong was also quite proud when he heard it, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then he said in an old-fashioned manner: "Since you have entered the lower courtyard, I will naturally take care of you." It's just the rules of our lower house, I don't know if Senior Brother Gai has told you about it?"
But what Fang Zhongjin said was that the three of them were inexplicable.
Gai Xing hurriedly smiled and said, "Blame me, blame me." I forgot to tell them!"
Then he said to Fang Zhongjin and them: "Actually, our lower courtyard is also very simple. Pay 50 taels of silver every month for the hospital fee to Senior Brother Jiang for safekeeping. When something happens, Senior Brother Jiang will also help to come forward. ”
After hearing this, Fang Zhongjin and the three of them knew that Jiang Lerong was going to collect protection money. It's just that the amount of protection money is too large, and it costs as much as fifty taels of silver.
Think about the yellow group of the Shura Dojo, how many people have lost their lives for a sum of fifty taels of silver. And what Senior Brother Jiang here is, but he asks for fifty taels of silver when he opens his mouth, or he collects it every month.
The others are up for grabs. Ge Rongxuan, who is the most simple-hearted, was the first to do it. He frowned and said, "Fifty taels of silver is too much. I won't be able to pay all the money I have in a few months. In this way, I won't hand it over, and Senior Brother Jiang won't have to stand up for me at that time. ”
When those lower court disciples heard this, they all burst out laughing. Jiang Lerong laughed even more unscrupulously and said, "You are a kid with no kung fu, you are a newcomer, and I don't know how many storms we will encounter in the lower courtyard." You are not to blame for this. It's just that with your efforts, if I don't cover you, can you live for a few months?"
Ge Rongxuan said curiously: "What's the matter? Is this a sect or a river and a lake? There are still wind and waves? How big a wind and waves?"
Jiang Lerong said to Ge Rongxuan with a smile: "How big the wind and waves are, it varies from person to person. Okay, let me show you what kind of wind and waves it is. Then decide whether to pay the hospital fee or not. This is also called a clear price, Tong Su is not deceiving, isn't it?"
After saying this, several Huashan disciples all laughed wildly and gathered around Ge Rongxuan.
