Chapter 25: Reunion

Zhang San did according to his words, at first the tide of thought fluctuated, it was difficult to calm down, but according to the old man's method of breathing luck, after a long time, he gradually felt relaxed and happy, and a warm air in the dantian gradually rose. After sitting quietly like this for more than half an hour, he opened his eyes slightly, and saw that the old man was sitting next to him meditating, his eyes slightly closed, but he seemed to know that Zhang San was looking at him, and said slowly: "Peace of mind." Zhang San's face flushed, he closed his eyes according to his words, and unconsciously more than an hour passed, only to hear the old man suddenly say: "The essence of that move is not in the strength, but in the freedom to send and receive from the inside out, which is what we often call inches." This trick is used to send and receive, and the strength of hitting out is ten, but the strength left in oneself is still twenty points. Chinese martial arts is broad and profound, you are still just ignorant, and one day you understand the taste of this, this trick will be completely learned. It's like an old wine, not spicy in the mouth, but mellow in the aftertaste. ”

Although Zhang San was puzzled at first, when he heard the old man talk about the old wine, he nodded with great understanding, and then said: "I understand, uncle, when I was a child, my mother often gave me medicinal wine, and this is how I feel." The old man squinted his eyes and said: "No wonder you have deep internal strength, I expected that you are young, if you don't have an adventure, you will definitely not be able to practice such internal skills, I think it is related to the medicine and wine you drink, otherwise how can you have internal strength but don't know how to make it." Zhang San muttered: "It turns out that the medicinal wine that my mother gave me to drink is to help me increase my internal strength. Thinking of his late mother, his eyes were slightly red, and he lowered his head. "Alright, alright, it's not too early. The old man said, "As long as you always remember the method I taught you, I will ensure that you rescue Miss Chen, and the old man should also leave." After saying that, without saying a second word, he got up and walked away.

Zhang San hurriedly chased after him, but the old man's body was so fast, Rao is Zhang San had good legs and feet, and he couldn't find the other party in the blink of an eye. Zhang San chased out of the pine forest and shouted, "Uncle, uncle!" Seeing a figure flickering by the pine forest, the old man came over and scolded: "You stupid boy, what are you still pestering me for? If you want me to teach again, it will be even more difficult." The old man sees that your kid has a good heart, so he taught you, which is already a great fate. Zhang San said: "You have taught me so much, and the disciple is satisfied, how dare you be greedy, but you have never thanked your old man for his great kindness." As he spoke, he knelt down, "knock", and knocked his head several times. The old man's face changed, and he shouted: "Stop! I'll teach you kung fu, that's because you and I are destined, I see that you are a good kid and likable, we don't have half the status of master and apprentice, don't think that the old man asked you to apprentice to you before, it was just to laugh with you." He knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang San. Zhang San was shocked when he saw this, and hurriedly knelt down and returned the salute. The old man stretched out his hand and hit his acupoint. Zhang San's knees were slightly bent and he couldn't move. The old man kowtowed to him several times. Only then did he unlock his acupoint and said, "Remember, don't say outside that you kowtow to me and worship me as a teacher." Zhang San realized that he had a strange temper, so he didn't dare to say it again, but his face showed reluctance. Seeing that the old man wanted to leave, he said, "Uncle, the disciple still doesn't know your old man's name." The old man saw that his face was sincere, so he said: "The old man's surname is ......" Before he finished speaking, he shook his head and turned to leave.

Since separating from the old man, Zhang San rushed all the way towards the town, at this time it was late, there were few pedestrians on the road, and it was indeed not easy to find the whereabouts of a few purple-clothed men. Just when he was at a loss, there was an inn not far away, and there were a few horses tied to the stables nearby, Zhang San recognized the mounts of several men in purple, and he was overjoyed, and he walked to the inn without thinking about it. Seeing that a guest arrived, the store companion hurriedly came out to greet him, and asked: "Is the guest officer a tip or staying in the store" Zhang San was hungry for a day, and wanted to eat something first, but when he thought that he didn't bring any silver, he said: "I'm looking for someone." After saying that, he ignored the shopkeeper and walked straight to the upstairs guest room.

Although this inn is not big, there are more than 20 rooms on the second and third floors, and each door is closed, it is not easy to find those people, and he aims to find Chen Rongying, as long as the woman in purple does not appear, he can't startle the snake. While thinking about it, the door of a room at the end of the third floor suddenly opened, and Zhang San hurriedly retreated to the staircase to check. A young girl walked out of the room and walked straight in his direction. Zhang San looked at it and was surprised, he also knew this woman, it was the woman who had a relationship in Yanjing City a few days ago. These days, from time to time, he would remember the girl's look back at him and smile, he was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, he had lived with his mother since he was a child, and he knew very little about men and women, but the girl in front of him was born handsome, just like a person in a painting, and since the first time he saw him, he thought in his heart how good it would be if he could see such a smile again in the future. I'm afraid he doesn't even know it, but in fact, he has unconsciously liked the girl in front of him. Seeing the person he was thinking about coming towards him, he was stunned for a moment, and when he reacted, he wanted to dodge again, but it was too late. The girl was also shocked when she saw Zhang San, her face was flushed with a hint of blush, and then she returned to normal, smiled slightly, and said, "Childe is so coincidental." Zhang Sanke never expected that she would remember herself, and stammered nervously: "Yes, Qiao, I, we are here, see, see." The woman smiled again and asked, "Is the son here to stay in the hotel?" Zhang San didn't know how to answer, so he casually agreed, and then asked: "The girl also lives here?" The girl nodded and replied: "I came with my father, my father has already slept, I think the room is stuffy, go out to breathe." After saying that, he smiled again and went downstairs.

Zhang San looked at the woman's back and was stunned for a while, then he thought that he hadn't found the residence of the man in purple yet, and secretly scolded himself for being useless, why didn't he take the opportunity to ask the girl just now, she knew that it was good, even if she didn't know, she could talk to her more. Thinking about it, I unconsciously went to the window of the corridor, and saw that the girl just walked out of the inn, and under the moonlight, the girl's back was even more graceful. Not far away, two figures walked towards the inn and approached the girl, and then passed by, and when they came to the front of the store, they didn't know what to say, and turned around and walked towards the girl. Through the light in front of the inn, Zhang San could clearly see that these two people were none other than two of the four men he had seen during the day.

Zhang San saw that the two of them were sneakily following the girl, and thought that there must be some conspiracy, so he hurriedly went downstairs and quietly followed behind the two men. The girl walked in front, two purple-clothed men followed, and there was a trailing Zhang San not far away, and these four people kept a distance not far away. After walking for a while, Zhang San saw the girl stop in front of a building, looked up, and saw clearly through the moonlight, it turned out to be a ruined temple. The girl strode in, and two purple-clothed men hid outside the temple gate. Zhang San saw that the other party didn't take any action, and it was inconvenient for him to show up, so he had to hide under a tree nearby, anyway, the sky was dark, and no one could see him.

The girl entered the temple, walked to the Buddha statue and folded her hands, passed for a while, and said: "Guanyin Bodhisattva, who saves suffering, I made three wishes in front of you on my fifteenth birthday this year, the first is to hope that my father can be healthy and live a long life. The second is to hope that one day our father and daughter can have a good home, and we don't have to wander the rivers and lakes every day. The third is ......" She paused for a long time before she said quietly: "I hope to see him again in my lifetime, but I didn't expect to be able to meet a gentleman today, and the little girl is here to make a wish in front of you." With that, he knelt down.

"Tut-tut, the little lady is just fifteen years old, and it's not good to be so spring-hearted. "That's right, hey, hey, I don't know whose kid this little girl is thinking, and ...... gentleman" The two purple-clothed men walked in in a weird way. The girl was startled, and looked back to see two men and women looking at her with a grin.
