Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 62 I am Wang Wu
The chapter "Remember to Travel the Jianghu" in "Martial Arts Enlightenment" mentioned:
When traveling around the world, if you see someone of unknown origin approaching you, you must first observe whether the other person practices martial arts, whether he has weapons or medicine bottles, etc. on him. Do not underestimate the enemy because of his appearance.

Lu Ping believed that, as a book widely circulated in the Suzaku Dynasty and a currency that only sold for 29 wen, "Introduction to Martial Arts" must have been read to pieces by everyone who traveled the world.

Even if those who travel around the country have not seen it, their elders must have seen it, and then remind them of the things they must pay attention to when they go out.

In this case, you only need to observe their actions at the moment and you can use their body language to make a preliminary judgment on their character, vision, and strength.

Just like the scene before him, Lu Ping can basically classify the people in the temple into three categories:

Those who have sharp eyebrows, arrogant expressions, and even look down on Lu Ping are cannon fodder who have some skills but are conceited and will not achieve much in the future;

Those who look alert, move cautiously, observe their surroundings from time to time, and relax their vigilance after Lu Ping's actions are all novices;
Those who have calm faces, behave nonchalantly from beginning to end, and even smile at me when they accidentally meet my eyes, are the experienced and capable old hands.

After confirming the look in their eyes, Lu Ping made a conclusion: there are not many old hands in this temple!
Lu Ping came and sat down next to the person who greeted him, then he looked at these people.

There were eight people in the temple, six of them were juniors, who looked about the same age as himself. Among them, there was an honest man and a pretty boy, and the women were all young, beautiful, smart, and slim.

The other two older ones were a middle-aged man with a kind face, and a beautiful young woman who looked to be in her thirties with a slender and plump figure and dignified and graceful manners.

If nothing unexpected happens, these two people should be the leaders of their respective teams.

"sorry for disturbance."

Lu Ping smiled and nodded to everyone as a greeting, then he leaned against the beam, took off his wet clothes, shoes and socks, and spread them out over the fire to roast.

When Lu Ping came over, the young woman and the girls had already stood up and walked to another fire and sat down, turning their heads and closing their eyes to pretend to be asleep.

Lu Ping held up his clothes to warm them by the fire, and subconsciously moved his nose to sniff the air.

Fortunately, the taste is not strong...

It was really awkward to sit by the fire in silence, so Lu Ping simply started chatting with the three people: "Thank you for inviting me! My name is Wang Wu, what are your names?"

As soon as I said this name, the pretty boy next to me started to mock me: "Wang Wu? How could someone choose such a random name?! This must be a fake name!"

You actually guessed it right!
But why are you so angry?

"Shut up! Don't be rude!"

Before Lu Ping could figure it out, the middle-aged uncle yelled at the pretty boy, then he clasped his fists towards Lu Ping and said with a smile, "Please forgive me, little brother. My nephew has been spoiled by his elders since he was young. I apologize to you on his behalf for my disrespect just now."

"It's okay, it's okay... It's normal for adolescents to have a bad temper. I forgive him."

As for the rhetoric in the underworld, if you encounter a situation like this and you really don't care, you should praise the other person for being "not fussy" or "frank and generous", etc. If you say something else, it means that the person involved really feels offended.

Therefore, the underlying meaning of the sentence "I forgive him" is "I will keep this account first."

The pretty boy ignored him and obviously didn't hear him, but the old man obviously understood and looked a little embarrassed. But even though he understood, he still had to say something polite: "...young brother, please be magnanimous."

"Why should Sixth Uncle apologize?"

The pretty boy snorted again and said, "I think this guy must have felt that he had to be careful when he went out, and didn't want to give out his real name, so he just made up a random name to get away with it."

"As the saying goes, 'A gentleman is open and honest, while a villain is always worried', and it is also said that people in the underworld 'don't change their names or surnames'. This person is not frank, so why should we talk to him more..."

"Shut up!"

The uncle shouted again, this time with a more serious tone and a hint of anger on his face, "This little brother just gave me a name, and you're talking nonsense here. What's the matter? Do you think you've become capable?"

"This world is so vast that even names like 'Mo Da', 'Zhang San', 'Yan Qi' and 'Wu Shisan' exist. How can you be so sure that there is no one named 'Wang Wu' in this world?"

"Do you feel proud of yourself outside because your master gave you a good name?"

"Another thing is, you should be cautious when traveling in the underworld. Even if others are cautious and don't tell their real names, it's understandable. For someone as stupid as you, I think you will be deceived sooner or later!"

Lu Ping found the first part of the sentence pleasant to the ear, but why did the last part sound a bit weird? Uncle, after all the scolding, you actually don't think anyone would call you "Wang Wu", right?
"Hahaha...you may have misunderstood. This is not the 'five' in 'one, two, three, four, five'. It's the 'wu' in 'abandoning literature and embracing martial arts'!"

"But if you find it troublesome, you can call me 'Wang Wu'. I don't mind."

This statement is much more clear and generous than the previous one.

After hearing what was said, the uncle and nephew realized that they had misunderstood. They were immediately ashamed and thought that they were really immature for judging others by their own mean standards!

The two men were silent, but the young man who had invited Lu Ping to come over finally found an opportunity to speak: "Excuse me, little brother. I am Zhang Wuji of Wudang. These two are my sixth uncle Yin Liting and my senior brother Song Qingshu."

Zhang Wuji?! And Yin Liting and Song Qingshu?

"Wudang..."

Only then did Lu Ping finally notice the other person's clothes, which were indeed Taoist robes.

However, Zhang Wuji at this age is in Wudang? Yin Liting is not disabled? Is there something wrong?
After a brief moment of surprise, Lu Ping figured out the reason: there was only a Sun Moon Sect in the Suzaku Dynasty, but no Ming Sect!

This world seems to have merged the Ming Cult and the Sun Moon Cult into one, and because there are so many powerful people in the world, this sect does not have the status it has in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" or "Swordsman".

Then all these things, such as Cheng Kun, the Minotaur, Yang Dingtian, Xie Xun, Xie Xun's indiscriminate killing of innocent people and his chaos in the martial arts world, and Yin Liting being ambushed, would not exist.

Even though the Zhang Wuji in front of him might be the son of Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu, he should have stayed in Wudang since he was born. At most, he had some contact with the Sky Eagle Sect. He would never go to the Ice and Fire Island, would not be hit by the Mysterious Nether Palm, and would not have anything to do with the Sun and Moon Sect's headquarters.
