Chapter 11 Grassroots Should Have Dreams

I wondered if I should go to the second gun hall and have a look. I had expected that if I went to the chaos gate and was not selected, or the exercises there were not suitable for me, then it would be good to go to the gun hall to see, and the weapon I wanted to use the most was also a gun, and since I was a child, I imagined that I was a man and a horse holding a spear against the scene of thousands of troops, at that time, the village chief's grandfather also carved a wooden stick for me to play. The owner of this gun hall Guo Dong is said to be the apprentice of the gun god Luo Chengyong, speaking of Luo Chengyong, it is a legend, holding a spear called Tianlong to break the city in the Sun Dynasty at the most dangerous time to stand out of the city to meet the enemy, single horse to break the enemy more than 300 people all the way to the rebel tent, the rebel leader fled in panic is really called the head of the army from it, if it is not for the fear that the later comrades will not be able to keep up with his rhythm, the battle line is too long, he is afraid that he will really chase hundreds of miles without killing all the vows not to return. It is precisely because of this battle that Luo Chengyong became famous in one battle and led several dynasty city defense troops to take down three cities in two days, which created that this year's Sun Dynasty is not a lonely city. At the beginning, they all thought that Luo Chengyong would be named the general of the dynasty, and then start a new round of southern and northern wars, the reigning emperor is in high spirits, and he is the only one left in the lonely city who is suppressed, and he is also the one who can be expected to regain the world in the Central Plains again, but who would have thought that on the day of the enthronement, Luo Chengyong openly disobeyed the imperial decree in front of the civil and military officials to refute the emperor's face and said that he was not here, when the Sun Dynasty faced life and death, it was natural for the people of the Sun Dynasty to stand up, this is the promise we made earlier, but I only want to climb to the top to see the scenery of the heights, and then drifted away。 This is a very early example of a warrior who can determine the king's spirit, and then more warriors practice martial arts in the hope that one day they can also rely on their skills to become kings and generals.

In fact, the legend also has a lot of water, at least there is history to check, and it was not Luo Chengyong who went out of the city to meet the enemy at that time, but a whole commando of 500 people. Luo Chengyong is not just a warrior, he is also a formation master, his five hundred people formed a sharp spear formation, with him as an arrow to break thousands of enemies, only he alone is three hundred, for this kind of legend, folk nature is what version there is, like this kind of story is also easy to be praised by the people in the market, after all, this kind of heroic deeds is most suitable as a conversation after dinner, and it can be regarded as a good appetizer for the heroes of the rivers and lakes. But in the current situation, I really don't know whether I should go or not, I have already touched a nose of ash, if I go again and hit a wall, in terms of my temperament, it is estimated that I will be bored for a long time, just when I hesitated, I only heard my stomach began to rumble, and when I looked up and saw that it was noon, these days in Mr. Bai and the Jin family have been taking care of comfort for too long, and I am not used to preparing for dinner.

I just walked to the door of a restaurant, this restaurant is two stories high, looking at the few diners, I think the sound should not be too good, I am not a picky eater, I want to be clean and good, so I walked in. It wasn't until I walked to the counter that Xiao Er came to greet me: "Guest officer, you are one, right? If you are one, you see that we are also spacious, you can sit wherever you want......

Although I have been to the county very few times, and I have never been to the restaurant twice, it should not be this attitude if it is a place to serve people. Xiao Er looked at me with a puzzled face, and said: "Guest officer, everything here is based on our own ideas, I want to lead you to sit in the position in case you don't like it, it's not a rare trouble, you must be satisfied with the position you picked, right? ”

I was stunned that this sharp-toothed shopkeeper had nothing to say: "Cheng Chengcheng, then Brother Lao will take me upstairs to find a place by the window to sit and walk." ”

Xiao Er smiled and said: "Guest officer, look at what you said, come on, come upstairs, please, see what you want to eat, this is the menu, our signature dish here is spicy shredded chicken, see if you want to try it? ”

"Cheng, little second brother, look at it, anyway, I'm alone, you can bring me a pot of wine, just come and make do with two dishes." ”

"Well, the guest officer, wait a minute, this wine and meat will be served to you immediately, come on, drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst first. "The shopkeeper poured me a cup of tea and went downstairs, this is what I began to look at the decoration of this restaurant, it is also very strange, the location of this restaurant is also good, the decoration looks quite high-grade, how can this meal be so bad, the entire second floor except me, there is only another old man who is sitting at the table opposite me and bowing his head and drinking, not even a decent dish, just a plate of peanuts, an empty plate to drink a pot of wine seems to be very tasty.

After a while, Xiao Er delivered the meal, and I learned from the Jianghu knight to take out one or two pieces of silver and threw it at the shop: "Little Second Brother, the money for this wine and food should be enough, even if I thank you!" This time it was the turn of the little second brother to be very confused, first looked at me and then looked at the old man who was drinking, and the old man happened to look at him in between, and then turned to me and said: " Little brother, I don't think you look like a child of a rich family, I don't know if you understand the truth of not revealing money when you go out, in addition, I estimate that this money is not earned by yourself, you are a casual person but threw away the harvest of the croppers in two months, our wine and food may be a little more expensive, but it is definitely not your law, it is not easy to make some money, I will go down to find the money for you and send it over. After saying that, Xiao Er went downstairs by himself, and the old man looked at me in a daze.

After a while, Xiao Er found me half a tael of silver and a large handful of copper plates, and went downstairs without speaking. At this time, the old man said to me, "Little brother, you are not from Youzhou, are you?"

"This old gentleman, how did you tell that I wasn't from Youzhou?"

"There are a few children in Youzhou, there will be such a person to eat a common meal and throw a tael of silver, this is neither the imperial city nor Jingzhou, Youzhou and Axe Prefecture are more passable than public security, but it is not uncommon for small people to be small, if you let the villain see it, I am afraid it will be a disaster for you, and the children who grew up in Youzhou will definitely not be able to do such a thing, so I see that you are not from Youzhou, I don't know if you come to Youzhou but have something to do or come to join your relatives. ”

"Sir, you still see it very accurately, I am indeed not from Youzhou, I am from Axe State, the family has no money, I am left alone in the family due to natural disasters, I have loved martial arts since I was a child, maybe the talent is not very good, but I have always persevered, since I was a child, I have listened to the martial arts legends here in Youzhou, it is indeed a longing for a long time, and now I am alone, I have nothing to worry about, I just want to seize this opportunity, follow the caravan to Youzhou, want to find a good sect to learn art, not to mention the achievement of a generation of heroes, it is good to realize the dream。 ”

"Judging from the way you came up, I'm afraid the little brother has hit a wall, why didn't the apprenticeship go well?"

"Mr. Hui, I heard before that the most famous sect in Youzhou is the Chaozhan Gate, since I am practicing martial arts, I definitely want to go to the strongest, but I went to apprentice, and the disciples who guarded the door didn't even let me in. ”

Do you know where the Chaos Gate is? The chaotic war gate is basically the training ground of the Youzhou big family now, it is no longer the chaotic war gate that sprung up in the past, the contemporary door owner Xiong Tian is indeed a character, you have to say, the original chaotic war gate has nothing but a little fame, and the current chaotic war gate is different, and the Youzhou military has also signed a directional agreement, all the people who go out of the chaotic war gate to the Youzhou army are exempt from the assessment is a hundred households, do not look at the qualifications and do not look at the merits, how can the chaotic war gate ask you to enter a foreign child who has no money and no power. Now the chaos of the gate may be said to be less spiritual than before, but in Youzhou's status or wealth, it is completely different from before, now in Youzhou in advance of the chaos of the gate who does not know, a door of four good fields are thousands of acres of high-rise mansions, and the disciples who went out of the army went to the Youzhou army and those officers who climbed up with a knife and a gun by themselves, and they became a faction in the Youzhou army, and they were also considered to have a prominent position in the Youzhou army. However, as far as the old people of our Youzhou are concerned, they still prefer the original chaotic battle gate, born for martial arts, and dedicated to martial arts, that is the pursuit of masters, and now it is contaminated with this worldly atmosphere, and it has changed its taste, little brother, you really want to practice martial arts, don't go to this chaotic war gate. ”

"In that case, does the old gentleman have a suitable place to practice martial arts, the kid really wants to learn some kung fu, but now I really don't know how to do it when I encounter a situation like this. ”

"I, how can an old man know where you are going, and besides, if you practice martial arts, you have to go to a place that suits you, even if I have an acquaintance who is the head of martial arts, it may not be what you want to learn. In addition, the young man listens to me, which may not sound good, but the truth should be correct. You are a child from other places, there are no relatives in Youzhou, you want to seek refuge in a famous teacher can be said to be difficult to ascend to the sky, you think that you have neither beyond the muscles and bones of ordinary people nor extraordinary talent, even if we don't talk about these, you are also rich and powerful, you say that anyone who is a little more motivated, he faces two boys with mediocre bones, he will choose the one with better family conditions, or choose the one with poor family conditions? It's not that there must be no heroes at the grassroots, and the grassroots should also have dreams, but it's best to be close to reality, start from yourself, don't be too ambitious, don't set your goals too high, life is not long, but it's not short, you should move forward step by step, young man, do you make sense of what I said?"

I stood up and bowed to the old gentleman: "What the old gentleman taught is that the kid really understands now." Thank you for wasting your time to talk to me so much. The kid can't repay it, so I'll bow to you. ”
