Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 173
"What test?" the boy asked, sobbing.

"The first test is, don't cry, follow this uncle, and go back to your mother obediently, can you do it?" Xue Chang asked seriously, pointing at Guanshi Wang.

The boy tilted his head, thought for a moment, then nodded.

When Steward Wang led him out of the living room, he turned his head repeatedly.

Xue Chang looked at the two apprentices and explained: "This child is too young. I already have enough apprentices, and I really don't have the energy to recruit another one."

What Xue Chang said was the truth, Han Ying alone was enough to give him a headache, so it was fortunate that Han Xue was a role model and took him with him.And this Yue Chong is younger, Xue Chang doesn't want to become the principal of the kindergarten and spend a lot of time coaxing the children.

Xue Chang then added: "Although I can't accept apprentices, there are people who can."

"Who is it?" Fan Mastiff asked curiously.

"You guys." Xue Chang first pointed at Hu Qiudi, then at Fan Mastiff, and said, "Especially you."

"Me?" Fan Mastiff was a little surprised.

"This child is destined to be with you. Both of your nicknames are Gou'er—"

"Master, didn't you hear what Guanshi Wang said just now? Such nicknames are very common among rural children."

"His bones are thick and his body is relatively strong. He is very similar to you. In the future, he will probably focus on strength."

"Master, the children in the countryside are used to being wild, and they have helped their parents with work since they were young. Of course, they are much stronger than the children in the cities."

"He is so young, but his belief in wanting to practice martial arts is very strong. Even if we don't accept him as an apprentice, I think in the future, he will travel all over Bashu to learn from masters like you. It’s different. But even so, with his condition, the big sects won’t accept him, and even if those small sects accept him, he is just an ordinary martial artist in the end. Compared with you, he is nothing but It's far from..."

This time, Fan Mastiff didn't retort immediately, he was silent for a while, and said: "Master, even if you want to accept apprentices, according to the rules, you have to accept them first."

"Xu Xi is still too young, you are the oldest of my apprentices, you will be an adult soon."

"But Master, I feel that I am still young. I have only learned martial arts for more than a year, and my martial arts are still very low. How can I be worthy of being someone else's master?"

"It's not for you to accept him as an apprentice now, you can observe him for a few more years to see how he feels, and wait until you feel that you have the ability to be a good master before accepting him." Xue Changyu said earnestly: " Master alone has limited energy, the development and growth of the Xiaoyao Sect also requires your efforts, and more importantly, you need to pass on the martial arts and spirit of the Xiaoyao Sect from generation to generation..."

Fan Mastiff was still hesitating, but Hu Qiudi couldn't help but said: "Shouldn't I just accept an apprentice, I still need to hesitate for a long time?! Master, if he doesn't accept it, I will accept it!"

"Who says I won't accept it!" Fan Mastiff said loudly: "Do you understand what is orderly seniority? I, as a senior brother, haven't replied yet, what are you, a junior sister, grabbing!"

"you--"

"Master, since you said that the child is destined to be with me, then I will accept him as an apprentice, but it will take a few years."

"Don't worry, he is the child of a farmer from our Xiaoyao faction branch, and he will always be here." Xue Chang responded with a smile.

"Master, if I meet a suitable child in the future, can I also accept her as an apprentice?" Hu Qiudi asked.

"Of course you can. It's your right to accept apprentices, but you have to practice martial arts well. Don't mistake your disciples."

After hearing this, Fan Mastiff and Hu Qiudi were thoughtful.

The reason Xue Chang asked Fan Mastiff to accept disciples was, on the one hand, for the development of the Xiaoyao Sect, and on the other hand, it was to add burden to the disciples so that they would not be too comfortable.Especially like Fan Mastiff, who is not good enough in other martial arts except swordsmanship, let him be a master and apprentice, he will be under pressure, and want to improve himself desperately, so as to avoid being laughed at by the apprentice in the future...

In the evening, the three of them practiced in the open area of ​​the branch, and Xue Chang obviously felt that the two apprentices worked harder than before.

After practicing, Fan Mastiff didn't go back to his room to rest immediately, but went out quietly and found Yue Chong's thatched hut.Standing outside the dark house, he listened to Yue Cong inside the house pestering his father, crying and insisting on hearing the story of the knight-errant. After a long silence, he turned and left.

All of this was seen by Xue Chang who was quietly following...

Early the next morning, when the three bid farewell to Steward Wang and left the branch on horseback, Fan Mastiff looked back at the village several times.

"What happened to Fan Mastiff this morning? It feels weird." Hu Qiudi looked suspiciously at Fan Mastiff who was behind, and muttered.

"It's nothing strange, it's just that you, Senior Brother Fan, are concerned, and Qiudi will be the same when you have someone who is concerned about you." Xue Chang said softly with a smile.

"Master, you are old and disrespectful, how can you talk to your apprentice like this," Hu Qiudi spat dissatisfied.

Xue Chang quickly argued: "As a teacher, I mean that in the future, if you have your own apprentice, you will be like Fan Mastiff now. You are thinking too much! Besides, I am so young, how can I be old!"

"Anyway, it's your fault, Master!"

……

The three rode horses and led the big green mule, talking and laughing all the way, heading south along the east bank of the Shu River, and entered Jiazhou City three days later.

"Senior brother, there is a restaurant in front, why don't you go and see what's delicious?"

"Why am I going again! I was responsible for finding the inn to stay in and taking care of the horses and livestock. Now you are the best at finding a place to eat, so you should go."

"Oh, senior brother, you are going to be a master now, and you still care about this with my junior sister and me."

"you--"

"Okay, Qiu Di, don't always use your senior brother as a cow, you go and have a look, if the food inside is good, we will eat here."

"Yes, Master."

After a while, Hu Qiudi came out of the restaurant: "Master, the environment inside is not bad, and the food smells pretty good. Oh, by the way, there is actually Mala Tang here."

"Oh, you have to go in and taste it."

So, Xue Chang walked into the restaurant with his two apprentices.

The lobby area of ​​the restaurant is not small. There are ten dining tables, and half of the diners are seated. Xue Chang took a second look at one of the tables: the four of them were all dressed in strong clothes, with short knives on their waists. It is estimated that it is a newly built restaurant. Disciple of the sect.

Xue Chang sat down at an empty table, and Hu Qiudi immediately called the waiter to order.

Because martial arts practitioners eat a lot, Hu Qiudi ordered five dishes and one soup in one go, half of which were meat dishes.

After a while, all the food was put on the table. After walking for a day, everyone was hungry. The three of them picked up the bowls without being particular, and started to eat voraciously, including Hu Qiudi.

After eating two bowls of rice and eating most of the dishes, the three of them slowed down.

"Master, this Malatang can't compare with ours. The Ma La Tang is a bit numb, but not too spicy." Fan Mastiff said.

"It's not an easy task to make the spicy taste well, and it's pretty good to be able to do it like this." Xue Chang commented in an expert tone: "The chef of this restaurant is actually very skilled. It is fried very crispy, and this steamed catfish is very tender—”

"Guest officer, you haven't paid yet!"

"I forgot to bring money today, I owe it first, and I will pay you back when I come to eat next time."

"This...customer officer, I'm really sorry, this store does not accept credit, and it is clearly written on the door."

"Kid, you can see clearly with your eyes wide open. Our brothers are from the Yuyumen, and we still need your meal money. If we say we will give it next time, we will definitely give it next time!"

……

The quarrel coming from the side caught the attention of Xue Chang and the three of them. The store clerk stretched out his hand to block the way of the four well-dressed men, and said without any fear: "I don't care if you are the minnows or the flying fish gang. You have to pay for the meal, otherwise you will go to the Yamen with me!"

"Brother Sun, you and I are both members of the sect now, explaining to this kind of young man is disrespectful, leave him alone, let's go." Another man with a fierce face finished speaking and strode out.

The store clerk was in a hurry, so he stretched out his hand to pull him: "Don't go, get the money first—"

"You kid dare to touch me, you want to die!" The man waited for this moment, swung his left fist and swept across.

The shop clerk had nowhere to dodge, screamed out of being smashed, and flew out. Seeing that he was about to hit the dining table where Xue Chang was, Fan Mastiff jumped up and reached out to catch the clerk.

"Thank you... thank you..." The shop clerk covered his chest with his hands, his expression was painful, and he even had difficulty breathing.

"Son, how are you? Are you okay?!" The shopkeeper rushed out from the counter with an anxious expression on his face.

"He may have broken ribs and injured his lungs, so take him to a doctor!" Xue Chang reminded that he had been supervising his apprentices fighting with others at the side of the martial arts field for the past two months. Have some knowledge.

"Oh, good, good..." The shopkeeper was anxious, he quickly helped his son up, and walked out of the shop.

"Master!" Hu Qiudi looked at Xue Chang with piercing eyes.

Xue Chang took a bite of the food, and said in a deep voice, "According to the school rules, you can do whatever you want."

"Yes!" Fan Mastiff and Hu Qiudi responded in unison, both showing excitement.

Fan Mastiff took a step ahead, stepped on the wooden stool, jumped up, jumped over the heads of the four people who had already walked out of the store, and stopped in front of them: "I said that the four elder brothers will not pay for food, and they will not know martial arts. The clerk in the shop was seriously injured, and it is too unreasonable for you to do so."

"That's right! Since you claim to be a member of the sect, you should know that there is a strict order from the Martial Arts Supervisor that martial arts people are not allowed to oppress the common people! You violate the law and want to run away after you hurt someone, just dreaming!" Hu Qiudi, who arrived afterward, also shouted sharply.

"Two little bastards who came out of nowhere, dare to meddle in the affairs of the elders, are you tired of living? Get out!" Before the man with a fierce face finished speaking, he swung his left fist horizontally.

The diners next to me couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

However, the tragedy did not happen again. Fan Mastiff's right hand easily blocked the incoming punch, and quickly took a step forward. His left hand melted into a sword and pierced straight into the opponent's chest. The thorns in the Hundred Flowers Fist will bloom. With Fan Mastiff's strength, the opponent's chest is really about to bloom.
