It was noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, the dust on the official road was whitened by the sun, and the wild grass and wild flowers were so hot that they were wilting and drooping, but the cicadas on the trees beside the road were singing hard, announcing to the world that midsummer was coming.

At this time, two figures passed by the official road as fast as galloping horses. The strong wind stirred up billowing dust, blowing the weeds beside the road and shaking their heads. The cicadas on the tree were also startled and sprayed out urine.

After escaping, the originally noisy world became quiet.

The two figures ran for several miles one after the other. The former suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, turned around and said angrily: "You have been chasing me for a long time, and it's not enough?"

This man was dressed in black and wore a ghost mask. His voice was as old as if it was coming from a coffin, but it was clearly filled with anger.

The man who was chasing after him also stopped. He had sharp eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and was full of heroic spirit. He was clearly Gao Bufan. However, he was panting, sweating profusely, and steaming from all over his body. He looked quite embarrassed.

It’s no wonder that from dawn to noon, they ran at least two hundred miles. Even a top expert like Gao Bufan was a little overwhelmed. The man in black with a grimace was also not relaxed. His chest rose and fell sharply, and his eyes were filled with anger. It was obvious that

Being chased by Gao Bufan was so intense that he couldn't get rid of him.

Gao Bufan took a few deep breaths, calmed down a little, and then said: "Senior, if you don't run away, can this junior chase you for a long time?"

The man in black with a grimace snorted coldly: "Why are you chasing me? I owe you, kid?"

Gao Bufan shook his head and said: "Senior certainly doesn't owe me anything, but when he taught me the internal martial arts, didn't he say he would come back to check on my progress? Why didn't he show up again for so many years?"

The man in black with a grimace said coldly: "Did I tell you when you would come back for a checkup?"

Gao Bufan shook his head.

"Then let's get over it. I still have something to do, so don't chase me any more, or I'll be rude to you." The man in black with a grimace turned around and wanted to leave.

Gao Bufan hurriedly said: "Wait a minute, since senior is back, why don't you check on my cultivation progress?"

The man in black with a grimace said coldly: "No need, you have chased me away for a long time and even checked you. In a few years, I will no longer be your opponent. You have already mastered your skills, there is no need to check again."

Gao Bufan sweated secretly, frowned and said, "But the internal martial arts passed down by our seniors are flawed."

The man in black with a grimace said softly: "Did you notice it too?"

Gao Bu almost rolled his eyes and said unhappily: "So, this technique is indeed defective?"

The man in black with a grimace nodded and said: "Yes, this technique is my original creation. It combines the advantages of Buddhism and Taoism. It is not perfect yet, and it is normal to have flaws."

Gao Bufan couldn't help but was speechless. This old guy was unkind. He taught it to others even though he knew it had flaws. This was clearly a form of harm. Could it be that it was just like what his elder brother Qiu Bearded had guessed, that the old guy was treating himself as a guinea pig for testing the technique.

Already?

"Tell me about the situation you encountered!" the man in black with a grimace asked calmly.

Gao Bufan couldn't help but feel happy when he heard the words. From the tone of the other party, he seemed to be interested in helping solve the problem, so he swallowed back the curse words and said: "Originally, there were no problems, but after the juniors broke through in the past two years, problems started to occur.

First, it is easy to lose your mind when you are extremely angry, and then

If you continue to practice, you will become upset. Later, Bai Yunshang, a layman from Bailian Temple, taught you an article "Guan Yun Zizi" to temporarily overcome it. However, another problem appeared again after that. The inner breath would usually be suddenly interrupted, and the whole body could not lift.

Work hard, this junior has almost lost his life twice because of this problem."

The grim-faced man in black was silent after hearing this, and then said for a long time: "I don't know what the problem is yet. I will tell you when I think of a solution."

Gao Bufan asked doubtfully: "Don't seniors have encountered this kind of problem?"

The man in black with a grimace shook his head and said, "No."

Gao Bufan was doubtful: "Then why does this happen to the younger generation?"

“Everyone’s constitution and experiences are different, so it’s not surprising.”

Gao Bufan couldn't help but frown: "Physique is understandable, but what does it have to do with the encounter?"

"Of course it has something to do with it. Just like I was originally a normal person, but later became a cripple. Although you are extremely talented, you have no experience of becoming a cripple. Besides..."

Gao Bufan was moved in his heart and asked: "What else?"

The man in black with a grimace said calmly: "Nothing, just stretch out your left hand and give me a pulse."

Gao Bufan stepped forward and stretched out his left hand. The man in black with a grimace put two fingers on his pulse gate, closed his eyes and said, "Let your blood circulate."

Gao Bufan did as he was told, staring at the ghost mask of the man in black at close range, and couldn't help but have an idea in his heart. If he suddenly took action at this time, he might be able to take off the other person's mask!

Gao Bufan hesitated again and again, but finally gave up. At this time, the man in black with a grimace had already checked his pulse, took back his hand and said calmly: "Why didn't you do it just now?"

Gao Bufan was slightly shuddered. It seemed that his thoughts just now had been reflected in the circulation of Qi and blood. The man in black with a grimace had already noticed it. Fortunately, he was not impulsive just now, otherwise he would definitely not get any advantage.

"Who is the senior? Why should we teach the younger generation the skills?" Gao Bufan had to get straight to the point and said: "There is no free lunch in this world. Seniors shouldn't just do it just because they like it, right?"

The man in black with a grimace said coldly: "Yes, I do have my own purpose in teaching you the skills."

"What purpose?"

"I want to use you to accomplish a big thing."

Gao Bufan said in surprise: "With the skills of the seniors, what big things can't be accomplished by oneself? We have to rely on the juniors. You must know that the juniors were just a boy from the mountains back then. They can't be successful in martial arts."

The man in black with a grimace chuckled and said: "High martial arts does not mean omnipotence. Some things cannot be accomplished by martial arts alone. Even if you are as strong as Zhang Zhongjian, the bearded man, you will still be powerless when facing thousands of troops."

Gao Bufan couldn't help but ask: "What exactly do you want me to do, senior? You might as well make it clear that if it's within my ability, I won't refuse."

The man in black with a grimace said coldly: "I can't tell you now, and it's not possible with your current ability. Don't worry, I will naturally find you when the time is right."

"Senior, are you sure that I will agree to your request?" Gao Bufan raised his eyebrows.

The man in black with a grimace flashed his eyes and said cheerfully: "If that time comes, you will definitely not refuse, because it is also a good thing for you. Come on, I won't bother you anymore. What's your situation?

I understand, and I will let you know when I have a solution to the shortcomings of the exercise." After saying that, he turned around and started to go.

Gao Bufan dodged and stopped in front of the man in black with a grimace. The latter's eyes darkened and said: "What, do you still want to fight with me? With your current ability, I'm afraid you are not my opponent yet. You can practice for a few more years."

."

Gao Bufan stared at the mask of the man in black and said, "Junior just wants to see the true face of senior. Maybe we know each other."

The man in black with a grimace said calmly: "Don't worry, I will be honest with you the day I make a request to you. Don't waste time here anymore. Although Xu Shiji is a handsome man, Zhang Xutuo and Yang Yichen are not ordinary people. They will never go back."

, be careful not only to lose your wife but also to lose your troops." After saying that, he jumped up and was a few feet away.

Gao Bufan hesitated for a moment and finally gave up the pursuit. The man in black with a grimace moved very fast and disappeared around the bend of the road in a few breaths.

"From a normal person to a cripple?" Gao Bufan looked at the direction in which the man in black with a ghostly face disappeared, and couldn't help but fell into thought. It was obvious that the man in black with a ghostly face was a person with a story. However, even if he had wine now, he would still

I definitely don't want to tell the story.

For some reason, Gao Bufan always felt that the man in black with a grimace had a smell that was familiar to him, but he couldn't tell where this feeling came from. Anyway, since the other party said that he would be frank on the day he made the request, so

Sooner or later the truth will come out.
