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

Chapter 66 Life circumstances determine character
Lu Ping had meat to eat, but the others were in a miserable situation. The last time they got supplies was three days ago.

Originally according to the calculation of walking speed, they should have been able to reach the town ahead to rest today, but they were delayed due to yesterday's heavy rain. As a result, they now have to face a food crisis and have to cut back on their clothes and diet.

In fact, the cold steamed buns and cold biscuits they had with them were not without their fill, but they tasted dry and had no taste at all. Compared with what Lu Ping brought, they pale in comparison.

The world's technological development is quite fast, to the point where we even have things like cameras, but progress in pasta-making techniques has stopped at the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Seasonings and other things had not yet been fully developed, so snacks like modern Shandong pancakes and whole grains were out of the question.

Gulu——! !

In the silent temple, someone let out an earth-shattering roar.

After all, the delicious food was in front of them, and the young people from Wudang and Emei who had just started out and had never suffered any hardship were the first to succumb to the strong protest of their stomachs.

The sound of his stomach growling was so loud that Lu Ping, who was heating wine and meat, was stunned.

Turning around, I saw that the Emei female disciples were sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed in meditation, as if they had no idea what had just happened.

But...

Lu Ping had sharp eyesight and could tell at a glance that the girl with her back to him had red ears, while the people around her had their mouths slightly raised, obviously because they were distracted by the noise just now.

This is the outstanding disciple of Emei, the direct disciple of Miejue?
You deserve to be punished for being so distracted while meditating!

Lu Ping looked down at the half boiled chicken and half roast duck in front of him and felt a little hesitant.

According to normal reasoning, if you walk over and actively share food with others at this time, in addition to increasing their favorability, it should also trigger a system task.

What made him hesitate was that if he really did that, what if he was considered a bootlicker?
And with so many people present, it would not be good to only give food to one person and not to another. But if everyone took two or three bites, what would I have to eat?
For a time, Lu Ping was caught in a dilemma between morality and satiety.

In the end, kindness triumphed over selfishness.

"Cough cough..."

Lu Ping coughed dryly, attracting the attention of the others in the temple: "I have some wine and meat here. Friends from Wudang and Emei, would you like to come and have some with us?"

As if they had not expected Lu Ping to be so hospitable, the voices of several Emei disciples were heard.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, little brother, but since we don't know each other, it's not right for me to eat your food for free, so let it go. Thank you for your kindness!"

Lu Ping could tell that the person who spoke was not very confident, but her voice was loud and loud, which seemed to be forced.

This is the style that a noble and upright family should have!

With a generous attitude and clear voice, she neither agreed hesitantly nor pretended that she was not hungry. Instead, she clearly expressed, "We are not familiar with it, so we won't eat it."

This kind of behavior is countless times better than those so-called "ladies of noble families" who usually abide by etiquette but abandon their image at critical moments, or those "noble fairies" and "cold and beautiful chivalrous women" who appear to be indifferent to worldly affairs but are actually easily provoked.

It is said that a gentleman has integrity and will not accept food given out of pity. It seems that the children of Jianghu are no less worthy...

Lu Ping really admires such people.

So the more the other party refused, the more he would treat them to a meal!

【System prompt】

[Activate side quest: Invite others to share delicious food together]

Okay, okay...it turns out that even the system is on the same page as me. Now I have to treat everyone to a meal!
Lu Ping was still thinking about how to continue the invitation, when he turned around and saw Song Qingshu who had just stood up but shrank back because of these words. The corner of his mouth twitched immediately.

No way, brother, are you so impatient?
After all, he is the second best among the younger generation of Wudang. How can he not be better than a girl?

Compared to Song Qingshu's retracted action, Zhang Wuji seemed much more sincere. He clasped his fists towards Lu Ping, smiled and said thank you, and then...

He stood up, walked over and sat down in front of Lu Ping.

"Brother Wang is so kind, so I won't be polite!"

Good man, you are not pretending at all!
While he was silently complaining, Zhang Wuji turned around and looked at everyone in Emei, and said loudly: "Sixth Master Aunt and all the sisters have been hungry for a day, so come and eat with us!" "If you feel sorry for it, this favor will only be counted on Wuji!"

Lu Ping was shocked.

You are so good, Zhang Wuji, you are trying to curry favor with me, right? You invited your aunt and sisters, but you don't care about your uncle and brothers, right?

Lu Ping blinked and quickly figured out the key.

In fact, the reason is very simple. As long as no one starts it, no one will do this kind of thing of eating other people's food. Once someone takes the lead, the people behind will naturally follow suit.

Therefore, although Zhang Wuji's behavior seemed to have embarrassed himself, it actually gave other people present a way out. Those who benefited from it later would naturally be grateful for his efforts.

Another thing is that among all these people last night, it was Zhang Wuji who talked to him the most and could be considered a half-friend. If something like this was to be done, it would naturally be most appropriate for him to come forward.

Apart from anything else, his quick wit and emotional intelligence are at least much better than the indecisive guy in the original book who has experienced countless storms but is always fooled by women.

After Zhang Wuji's appearance, others began to become interested.

Song Qingshu's face immediately showed visible regret and jealousy towards Xiao Zhang: Damn Zhang Wuji! Why didn't I think of this just now? !
Several Emei disciples discussed in a low voice, and then sent a woman over.

"In this case, I would like to thank Brother Wang for his hospitality on behalf of all the senior sisters!"

She is Zhou Zhiruo? !
Hearing the familiar name, Lu Ping couldn't help but look at the other person a few more times.

Judging from her appearance alone, she is somewhat similar to the one in the ▔OO version of the film and television drama, equally beautiful and elegant, with extremely beautiful looks, but other than that, her movements, expressions, words and deeds are all very different from the description in the original novel!
At least when she said those two sentences just now, there was no sign of being introverted, reserved, or coy. Instead, she had the demeanor of a valiant and upright chivalrous woman.

She is actually Zhou Zhiruo? !
Lu Ping couldn't believe his eyes and even suspected that there was something wrong with the image of this person in his memory.

What he didn't know was that Zhou Zhiruo in this world had not experienced the childhood trauma of "the Yuan army killing her father", and she was not brought to Emei by Zhang Sanfeng.

In this world, Zhou Zhiruo lived as a boat girl when she was young, following her father Zhou Ziwang, a boatman.

One day, she was spotted by a passing Emei elder, who judged her to be of "extraordinary talent". He also thought the girl was smart and beautiful, so he took her to Emei to learn martial arts.

After many twists and turns, Zhou Zhiruo finally became the disciple of Master Miejue.

Different life experiences will naturally lead to very different personalities.

"It's okay. The meat is ready. Please feel free to eat as you like, Miss Zhou." Lu Ping smiled kindly and stretched out his hand, making a 'please' gesture.

"Thank you!"

Zhou Zhiruo didn't hesitate to thank him. Suddenly she remembered something and said, "I heard you chatting with Senior Brother Zhang yesterday. It seems you know some martial arts?"

Lu Ping blinked, not knowing why she suddenly brought up this. He just nodded without saying anything.

Zhou Zhiruo smiled slightly: "I think my martial arts skills are pretty good among my peers. If you don't mind, we can exchange some ideas on the way."

Then he took some of the meat back and shared it with the Emei disciples.

[Side quest completed...]

The subtext of Zhou Zhiruo's words is already very obvious -

I know you covet the martial arts of our Emei, Wudang and other fighting sects. It doesn't matter. Although our martial arts cannot be passed on to outsiders, I can teach you some basic punch and kick techniques.

Later on the road, if you want to learn martial arts, you can come to me and I will teach you for free as a way of repaying you for the meal.

Lu Ping was stunned: "..."

Did you misunderstand something? I was talking about a genuine martial arts exchange, not trying to steal your martial arts! Why do you all think I want to learn Wudang and Emei martial arts? !
Aren’t the disciples of these big sects a little too arrogant?
However, Lu Ping changed his mind and realized that Wudang and Emei already had a high status in the martial arts world, and Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo were outstanding disciples of their sects, so it seemed normal for them to have such ambitions.

It's like you are a passerby who didn't continue your studies after graduating from high school. One day, you meet a top student from the mathematics department of Peking University or Tsinghua University on the street. The top student is the kind who was admitted to graduate school and doctoral program. You say you want to discuss the solution ideas of math problems with him.

Of course, people will think that you want to learn mathematics from them.
