Wulin martial arts hegemony record

Chapter 380
"I'm not a traitor, I just want to stay here and learn martial arts!" Liang Xiao hurriedly defended loudly.

Kong Quan stopped the shouting of the two subordinates, and looked at Liang Xiao with a serious expression: "Tell me, why don't you come back with us?"

Liang Xiao bit the bullet and replied: "I want to stay here, learn the martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect, and become... a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect in the future!"

"Oh, your ambition is not small, but it's a pity that you are already 21 years old. You have managed to practice the martial arts of our Green Water Gang, but you want to practice the basic martial arts of the Xiaoyao School from scratch. In case you fail the exam once or twice, In a blink of an eye, the 26-year-old limit for not accepting apprentices stipulated by the Xiaoyao Sect has passed, what will you do then? Become a wanderer with no food or clothing?" Zhao Ping reminded seriously.

Kong Quan then said earnestly: "Xiao Liang, what you said is right, Brother Zhao, you have to think about it carefully, your mother and sister still depend on you to support them, you just need to stay in the Green Water Gang for another year or two , you can become the leader in charge of one party's help, and your salary will increase a lot. But if you are here, there may not be any results in two or three years. How do you support yourself? And how do you support your family?!"

After hearing these words, Liang Xiao frowned, his expression was tangled, and he fell into silence. Then he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't have a chance before, but now that the Xiaoyao faction has given me such an opportunity, I'm not reconciled. I want to work hard." Give it a try, I think I can do it! Uncle Kong, just let me try, please!"

"You think you can do it, but I still think I—" Qu Laosan sneered, but Kong Quan waved his hand to stop him. He looked at the young man with clenched fists and a resolute face, and sighed: "When you were young, you were a stubborn bull. , It’s still not changed at all. Forget it, you can stay, I will discuss this matter with the leader, even if you learn art here, you are still my Lushui Gang, and the monthly salary will be sent as usual. To your mother—"

Seeing that Liang Xiao wanted to interrupt, Kong Quan emphasized his tone again: "I'm not taking care of you, but I have special requirements!"

"What request?!" Liang Xiao asked anxiously.

"I'll give you two years. If you can't become a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect within two years, you must return to the Green Water Gang. You must serve the gang with all your strength and must not betray—"

"What if I become a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect?" Liang Xiao asked again unconvinced.

"You have become a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, how dare the Green Water Gang do anything to you." Kong Quan smiled peacefully: "At that time, I hope you can remember the kindness that the Green Water Gang gave you, and take care of you when necessary. "

"Okay, Uncle Kong, I promise you!" Liang Xiao responded without hesitation: "If I fail to pass the examination and become a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect within two years, I will return to the Green Water Gang!"

"I believe you will do what you say, so I don't need you to write a proof." Kong Quan said, fumbled for a while, and took out five taels of silver: "If you stay here for two years, you will be good at martial arts. Money is not enough, you take it first, and I will send you two taels of silver every month in the future."

"Uncle Kong, I can't take this money, and you don't want the gang to pay any more money. I can earn money to support myself." Liang Xiao hastily declined.

"Take it." Kong Quan forced Liang Xiao's money back into his hands, and said earnestly: "Even if it's just the basic martial arts of the Xiaoyao School, it may not be so easy to learn, not to mention that there are many people who come here to learn. If you don't put your heart and soul into practicing kung fu, how can you guarantee to pass the examination. Don't worry, the money will come from my salary, not from the gang. I grew up with your father and we are as close as brothers. Morning, I have always regretted it, so I asked you to recruit the Green Water Gang, hoping to take good care of you, if you can become a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect and become a leader, what is this little money..."

Liang Xiao's eyes were red, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Kong Quan patted him on the shoulder: "Take care of yourself, I'll wait for your good news." After finishing speaking, he took the package and walked out of the inn room. After the military mobilization order from the Patrol Division is issued, the Green Water Gang will also be recruited. , he must rush back immediately to make arrangements for this matter.

"Xiaoliang, brother, I don't have much money, you take the one tael of silver first." Zhao Ping stepped forward and put the loose silver in his hand on the table.

Before Liang Xiao could react, Qu Laosan immediately stuffed another ingot of silver into his hand, and then the two quickly ran out of the room and chased after Kong Quan without saying goodbye to Liang Xiao.

"Zhao Ping, you are too picky, you just gave me such a small amount of money."

"Brother Qu, I have a family and a room, and I really can't afford more money. Unlike you, one person can feed the whole family without hunger."

"Hey, I'm so envious of Xiaoliang! If I could be more than ten years younger, I would definitely make a choice like him!"

"Yeah, I hope this kid can succeed! In the future, we can also boast to others that the hero Liang from the Xiaoyao faction was once our younger brother!"

"Hahaha……"

Listening to the voices coming from a distance, Liang Xiao deeply remembered the friendship between the three of them, pocketed all the money, and then went downstairs to return the room. After all, the price of accommodation in Xiaoyao Town is It's not cheap, he can save a little bit, the first thing to do next is to go to the town to sign up for the martial arts training ground.

The Xiaoyao Sect's martial arts training ground is located in the northwest corner of the town, close to Xiaoyao Mountain Villa. It was not built on the town originally, but as more and more people came to learn martial arts, the inns, shops, houses, and streets nearby have also been expanded accordingly. and eventually became part of Xiaoyao Town.

Yesterday, Liang Xiao followed Kong Quan to the training ground and participated in the apprenticeship ceremony of the Xiaoyao School. He also took the opportunity to ask about the whole process of learning art in the Xiaoyao School, so he first came to a wooden house next to the training ground. There is a plaque on the door that reads "Registration of Learning and Art".

There were already seven or eight people queuing up in the wooden house, and soon it was Liang Xiao's turn. The man in charge of registration looked him up carefully, and warned in a deep voice: "If I ask you next, you must answer truthfully without any concealment." And falsification. Because we will take the information you told to the yamen where your household registration is for verification. Once you find out that there is something wrong, you will not be able to continue practicing martial arts here, and the martial arts you have learned will also be withdrawn. Listen do you understand?"

Liang Xiao's heart trembled. Of course, he didn't think it was a false threat from the Xiaoyao faction. With Xue Chang's current distinguished status, the yamen in various places would definitely actively cooperate with the Xiaoyao faction's investigation, so he nodded seriously and said, "I understand. I'll answer your question truthfully."

"...my surname is Liang and my name is Xiao... I am 21 years old this year... I live in Liangjia Village, Zizhou Prefecture... I have joined a sect, and I belong to the Green Water Gang... Yes, I have practiced martial arts, and the martial arts I have practiced include..." Facing Liang Xiao answered all the questions asked by the man.

The man quickly filled out the form as he said, and then pushed it to him: "Check to see if the above is correct. After confirming that it is correct, sign your name and stamp your handprint."

Liang Xiao followed suit one by one.

Then the man turned around and took out something from the wooden cabinet at the back, handed it to Liang Xiao, and said, "Okay, you have obtained the qualification to learn martial arts from the Xiaoyao School, and every time you come to the martial arts field in the future, you will pin this to your chest, and guard won't stop you."

This is a round thin iron plate the size of a copper coin, with the words "Xiaoyaopai" engraved in the middle and the number "[-]" engraved below it.

"Thank you!" Liang Xiao walked out of the wooden house with joy on his face, striding towards the training ground.

The training field in Xiaoyaopai Town has a vast area. At first, this large flat grassland was chosen because it could accommodate enough martial arts practitioners in the future, so at the beginning it had no courtyard walls or even fences. Later, it was because People in the town can enter and leave the martial arts training ground at will, and often interfere with everyone's martial arts practice, so a simple wooden fence was set up.Standing outside the fence, you can still clearly see the situation inside. Therefore, people often circle the long fence to watch the excitement. This is also a scene in Xiaoyao Town.

Liang Xiao squeezed through the crowd and came to the entrance.

Standing at the door was a middle-aged man with a long sword hanging from his waist and well-dressed. Before Liang Xiao could speak, he glanced at the iron plate on Liang Xiao's chest and said, "Newcomers report over there."

The direction of the man's finger was the west side of the martial arts field. Compared with the hundreds of people gathered on the east side, there were few people there.

It is more than half a mile from the entrance to the west side. Liang Xiao strode over. Before he got close, he saw a familiar figure through the gap between the crowd. His heart beat faster, his steps became faster, and he walked over bravely. , bent down to salute: "Nvxia Xue, hello!"

Xue Yuting, who was instructing martial arts training, was a little surprised: "Aren't you going back to Zizhou this morning?"

"Uncle Kong and the others have already set off, I decided to stay here and learn martial arts." Liang Xiao said, straightening up.

Xue Yuting saw the iron plate on his chest, and she was stunned.On the way back to the Xiaoyao faction from northern Sichuan, Liang Xiao was basically taking care of him, and this young man was full of vigor and handsome. Xue Yuting had a good impression of him, and immediately said with a smile: "Welcome to the Xiaoyao faction." Learn art!"

"Liang Xiao is new here, please give me some pointers!" Liang Xiao said earnestly.

Xue Yuting was not modest, she just nodded and said, "You are from the Green Water Gang, and you should know some martial arts. Let me have a look at all of them."

Xue Yuting spoke in a loud tone, but Liang Xiao didn't feel that the other party was arrogant. After all, he had seen with his own eyes how Xue Yuting defeated the famous Bashan strange man in northern Sichuan, and she had a sparring with Kong Quan on the Xiaoyao Town ring the day before yesterday, just like a master Like guiding an apprentice, he accompanied Kong Quan through all the saber moves before easily defeating him... So the girl in front of her looks delicate, but her martial arts are amazing.

Liang Xiao's excited mood suddenly calmed down, he took a deep breath, and performed the fists and kicks he learned in the Green Water Gang very seriously.
