In the outer city of Lishui, on the streets lined with courtyards, a handsome young man carried a bamboo pole and a sail, and carried a table, chair and bench. He sold a jar of ordinary spirits at the corner and walked into an inconspicuous courtyard.
"You're back so early? But the little lady from Baihualou is harassing you again?"
Not long after, a burst of shouting like a broken gong came from the courtyard, vaguely mixed with the sound of drinking wine, "Tsk, tsk, this wine is still very satisfying, very satisfying!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Sister Qiong'er just likes to have fun. They..."
The handsome young man defended in a low voice.
"Hmph, are you kidding?"
The broken gong's voice came up again and he hummed disdainfully, "Think about how many heroes and heroes back then had their bones and marrow sucked out by these bitches, and their reputations were ruined. Fortunately, I saw that you were a talented person, so I passed on your ability to use both hands to save your life. But
Don’t die in the enemy’s hands, instead of dying in a woman’s belly!”
"You...are unreasonable!"
The handsome young man was furious. You didn't need to look to imagine that his shy young face was red.
"You're shouting, and you're still talking to me?"
Po Luo's voice seemed to be extremely happy, and shouted, "Don't say I didn't remind you that a sword's heart is easy to make, but an ordinary heart can be messed up. This kind of love can make steel become soft around the fingers. Hehe, you, you are not far away from death."
Here you go!”
"Nonsense, I have never slacked off in practicing swordsmanship. I haven't accomplished my art yet, how could I...how could I indulge in love affairs?"
The handsome young man was dissatisfied.
"Haha, you still don't admit that I was right. If you hadn't been distracted, how could you have been targeted? Is there any way to know?"
Broken Gong's voice mocked.
"Um?"
The handsome young man was full of suspicion, and his spiritual consciousness, as subtle as the fallen leaves in a bamboo forest, swept around him, "Don't bother me, there's no one around."
"Senior has such a keen sense, but how do you know that I'm not here to find a drinking partner?"
At this moment, Lang Lang's questioning voice sounded outside the door.
"Who?"
Before he finished speaking, a handsome young man appeared in front of the door. The sword in his hand had not yet been thrust out. His eyes showed joy. He bowed his head and bowed, "Your Majesty!"
"The little guy has grown up!"
Wu Mingxu held it with his hand and threw the jar of wine into the courtyard.
What made his eyes narrow slightly was that the wine jar spun around in mid-air and landed firmly in front of a rocking chair in the courtyard. Lying on it was a man with no limbs and disheveled hair, whose age was indistinguishable.
The ability to capture objects with his spiritual mind shows that the opponent is at least a Grand Master, and Wu Ming, who can detect the great improvement in strength, is at least a peak Grand Master. As for the higher level, Wu Ming cannot tell it now.
"My lord, why are you here?"
The handsome young man is none other than Qingzhu, who has been living in the south for the past few years.
"Prince? What kind of prince is this?"
The man raised his broken gong and refused to drink coldly. The wine jar in front of him opened the mud seal, and the clear spring-like wine poured into his mouth.
"You'd better be more respectful, otherwise don't blame me..."
Qingzhu's face turned cold, and suddenly there was a willow-leaf thin sword in his hand.
"Scream, you're so brave, how dare you..."
The popular man's beard and hair were spread out, revealing a terrifying face with unshaven beard and one eye missing.
"Senior, don't blame me. This kid has been away from the government for many years, and his temper has become a little wild. Now he even dares to draw a sword against his master. It's up to me, senior, to discipline him on his behalf!"
Wu Ming cupped his fists and saluted.
"Haha, you finally said something that I heard. I like what you said. However, this kid really lacks education. I passed on his unique skills and didn't even call him master, hum!"
The man couldn't help being happy and raised his head pretending to be angry.
"Is there such a thing as this?"
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows and called Qingzhu, who was full of reluctance, "You learned the sword skills of your predecessors and didn't even become a master?"
"Your Majesty, I..."
Qingzhu's handsome face was grimacing, not knowing what to do, he suddenly raised his head in astonishment.
"Yes, very good. I've made a lot of money from this deal, and I finally didn't lose my face!"
Wu Ming smiled and patted Qingzhu on the shoulder.
"What? Do you dare to say it again?"
The man almost choked to death on his wine, and said with blazing anger in his single eye.
"Don't say good things a second time!"
Wu Ming sat carelessly across from the stone table. He picked up a bottle of wine and poured it down. The other party was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.
"Your Majesty, don't you blame me?"
Qingzhu approached cautiously.
"Why do you blame me? What did I tell you before I left? When you go out, the most important thing is not to suffer any loss. You, an empty-handed wolf, have mastered a set of unique swordsmanship and let those boys know it, and you are not jealous to death?
"
Wu Ming smiled.
"You, you... you..."
The man was stunned.
"It's all good teaching from the prince!"
Qingzhu breathed a sigh of relief, scratched the back of his head and said sheepishly.
"I don't want you to belong to the prince anymore. Now that I have been dismissed from my position, I am a commoner and am very free and at ease."
Wu Ming waved his hand.
This place is thousands of miles away from Tianlong River, and even many big forces may not care about this kind of thing. Although Qingzhu cares about the north, there is no huge intelligence network of Nestlé here, so it is naturally impossible to know.
"If you don't do it right, then don't do it right. With your king... Your Majesty's abilities, you can conquer the whole world, so why do you need to be trapped in one place?"
Qingzhu's complexion changed slightly, and he immediately smiled.
"Call me brother. We haven't seen each other for more than a year, and we are already separated?"
Wu Ming feigned anger.
"Big...brother!"
Qingzhu's eyes were slightly red.
"Hmph, what a shameless statement! What qualifications does a mere peak master have to be the elder brother of my disciple?"
Seeing the two of them chatting happily, the man hummed unhappily.
"If you don't speak, no one will think you are mute. Be careful and you will choke to death on wine!"
Qingzhu glared angrily.
"You... listen, you, the elder brother, don't care..."
There was an angry look in that man's single eye. Thinking about what Wu Ming said to Qingzhu before, how could a person who can say "A White Wolf with Empty Gloves" know how to discipline others?
"Senior, don't blame me. This little brother of mine has done a lot of dirty and dirty things with me, but his heart has never changed."
Wu Ming smiled sarcastically, cupped his hands and said, "I haven't asked my senior for advice yet, but Wu Ming, a young man in the countryside, needs to thank my senior for teaching me and taking care of my incompetent little brother!"
"Hmph, these words are barely pleasant to hear. The name is just a code name. I haven't used it for many years, so you can just call me an alcoholic!"
The drunkard curled his lips, as if he was still angry.
"Senior Drunkard lives here in seclusion. It is his good fortune that Qingzhu can meet him!"
Wu Ming beat the snake and followed the stick to the road.
"Brother, it's not me...it's him who is a deadbeat..."
Qingzhu defended in a low voice.
"What did you say?"
The drunkard blew his beard and stared.
"Ahem!"
Wu Ming coughed lightly, knowing that the story between the two might not be simple, but he didn't understand it in detail. He changed the topic and said, "Senior, the drunkard is playing in the world, enjoying himself and being carefree. It's all obvious!"
"Hmph!"
The drunkard squinted his eyes and drank, reluctantly accepting it.
Unexpectedly, Qingzhu fell to his knees, his forehead touching the ground, and he almost threw the wine jar away.
"how?"
Wu Ming frowned slightly.
"King...I..."
The back of Qingzhu's neck was wet at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he couldn't even speak.
"Just say what you have to say, why do you need to do that?"
Wu Ming was puzzled and went straight to help him, but Qingzhu stubbornly refused to get up.
"Okay, let me tell you!"
The drunkard's single eye flashed, and he looked deeply at Wu Mingdao, "If my prediction is correct, the body-building method he taught me to save me should have been passed on to you."
"Ba Duan Jin!"
Wu Ming frowned and looked at the drunkard up and down. He had no limbs and didn't look like he could learn Baduanjin.
Over the years, he has practiced a lot of exercises, but he has never forgotten what he learned in his previous life, especially Baduanjin. With this training, he can accommodate various body-building exercises, and even cultivated the Wuji Dharma, making his body different from ordinary people.
of strength.
"This kid is very stubborn. When he wanted to renounce himself for secretly teaching the Dharma, I gave up my limbs and mutilated my body to show his loyalty!"
The drunkard said calmly.
"What?"
Wu Ming was shocked, kicked the green bamboo over, and said angrily, "Confused!"
"You...you don't blame me?"
Qingzhu said happily.
"How can I not blame you?"
Wu Mingji pointed angrily and said sternly, "Is this probably the fundamental reason why your sword is unstable?"
"No wonder he always talks about you with a look of sincere awe and admiration. Even I, the person who taught him the secret of packing boxes, can't compare to me!"
The drunkard sighed.
"I also want to thank my senior for saving this idiot. Don't worry..."
Wu Ming took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
"No need, my meridians were disordered back then and I almost went crazy. This kid also accidentally hit me and gave up my body. If not, I would have been dead long ago and there is no need to continue!"
The drunkard said calmly.
"Oh, that's it!"
Wu Ming's eyes flickered and he rubbed his chin.
"What's your tone?"
A drunkard has a bad temper.
"Haha! I didn't expect that the body-building method I taught would become a life-saving straw for my seniors, and it also saved their lives. I'm so happy to congratulate you!"
"you……"
How could a drunkard and an angry man not understand the meaning behind Wu Ming's words?
Originally, the cause and effect was only with Qingzhu, but this time it was better, because he owed an extra favor, and the other party was obviously not a fuel-saving lamp, he was far better than Qingzhu, how could he be easily fooled?
"Why are you standing there in a daze? You didn't see me and your senior getting along so well. Why don't you go and prepare a table of wine and food? Today I'm going to get drunk with my senior!"
Wu Ming waved his hands carelessly, as if he were the master of this place.
Qingzhu was overjoyed and hurriedly left. He didn't expect that the big event he was worried about would pass so easily.
Still remembering the formality with which he taught the Eight-Duanjin style back then, he was really afraid that Wu Ming would pursue him for secretly teaching the technique. People who are used to wandering, the most fearful thing is to be helpless!
"Hey, when will this kid be so kind to me? Even if he dies, he can rest in peace!"
The drunkard sighed.
"Senior has an extraordinary talent, and at first glance, he is not a short-lived person. The future is long, and when the time comes, it will naturally fall into place!"
Wu Ming smiled.
"You kid, please don't look at me carelessly. The two little things in your hands are not something ordinary people can have. I don't know who you are, and I don't want to care about you, but I can see that even if I am gone, you
You can also take good care of this silly boy!"
The drunkard drank a glass of wine and said seriously, "Tell me, what do you want to know?"
Wu Ming smiled secretly, if he treated Qingzhu as a stupid boy, he would probably die without knowing how.
But this person who has read the world and experienced the ups and downs may not be unable to see it, but he probably doesn’t want to see through it!
In any case, this is Qingzhu’s blessing! (To be continued)
