"I'm sorry, it's precisely because of Louise that I can't do some dangerous jobs."
Luo Hongyun, who was silent for a moment, still shook his head. The hand he kept stroking Louise's hair subconsciously showed that he was not at peace in his heart.
This is a dilemma. If he doesn't work, he won't be able to raise Louise. If he works, he won't be able to take care of Louise. If something unexpected happens to him, Louise will be worried and even left without a friend.
"No, I think you misunderstood, Uncle Luo. I was referring to teaching me how to fight. I want to hire you as my fighting teacher. Is that okay?"
Xia Xu looked at him with a smile.
He had never thought about asking Luo Hongyun to be his bodyguard now, and he had no intention of asking this from the beginning.
Originally, Luo Hongyun was unwilling to engage in combat. Now that he has a daughter, he probably only wants to live a peaceful life.
At this time, if you want him to do a job like a bodyguard, let alone 45 points of favorability, you may not agree if it is doubled, unless it reaches 100 points - assuming that 100 points is the full value.
But there shouldn't be any problem just asking Luo Hongyun to be a fighting teacher. After all, it's just teaching and not requiring him to do it himself.
Originally, if his favorability was slightly higher, he would most likely agree, but now that he has the financial need to raise a precious daughter, it is even more impossible to refuse.
His only specialty is this. Teaching people to fight is much easier than going out to do odd jobs and doing hard work. He can also spend a lot of time with his daughter.
"Just teaching fighting?"
Luo Hongyun was obviously moved after hearing this.
"Yes, fighting teacher, the monthly salary is 10,000, but the premise is that you must give me all your efforts."
Xia Xu nodded.
Although self-study is a bit slow, you can never have too many skills to defend yourself and save your life.
Knowing that there are dangers in this world and that he often participates in various plots, combat skills can be said to be something that he must learn sooner or later. It is better to rely on himself than to rely on anyone else.
"Isn't it a bit much?"
Luo Hongyun hesitated slightly.
Nowadays, various martial arts schools only have 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a year. If you simply ask him to teach fighting, you don't need to offer a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan.
It's not that he thinks it's too much, but he doesn't want to owe a favor.
Any kind of debt is easy to repay, but the debt of favor is the most difficult to repay. Especially for a person like him who only specializes in fighting, repaying the debt of favor often requires working hard or even risking one's own life.
"Just think of it as protection money. I believe Uncle Luo has already understood that I live here just so you can take care of me a little bit."
Xia Xu said, seeing that Luo Hongyun was hesitant to speak, he raised his hand to stop him and said: "Don't worry, if there is any danger, it will be for me. I don't want Uncle Luo to insist on you."
You can’t protect me, I just hope you will try your best to support me when you are sure, and if you are not sure, call the police for me."
Luo Hongyun was silent for a while again: "...I need to know where your danger comes from."
Originally, he didn't actually mind Xia Xu living next to him, and would basically lend a helping hand if there was danger.
A skilled man is bold, he just doesn't want to fight anymore, but that doesn't mean he will be afraid of danger and fear of fighting.
But things are different now, he is no longer alone.
"I said I actually don't know what it is, do you believe it?"
Xia Xu shook his head with a helpless smile, took out his mobile phone and showed it to Luo Hongyun. The page frozen on it was this morning's news bulletin.
"It can't be a stray dog infected with rabies."
Luo Hongyun frowned after just one glance, and made the same judgment as Xia Xu, asking: "Do you think you will encounter the same attack as them?"
"Yes, it's hard to say the specific reason, but the probability of me being attacked may be much higher than others, and I suspect that this is probably not a normal creature."
Having said this, Xia Xu paused and asked: "Uncle Luo, you must be a retired special forces soldier, right? Have you ever encountered similar situations? Or other creatures that are beyond the norm?"
Luo Hongyun is also the King of Soldiers after all, and may have access to a much higher level than him, so he wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about information to confirm what is going on in this world.
It's a pity that he was disappointed. Luo Hongyun just shook his head: "I haven't encountered it either. I have heard that there are some special situations in some war-torn areas in the past two years, but they are just rumors. I have not seen it with my own eyes."
"What special circumstances?"
Xia Xu asked reluctantly.
Luo Hongyun said seriously: "It is said that there are people who can match me in close combat."
"?"
Xia Xu repeatedly checked the strange look on Luo Hongyun's face, and finally confirmed that he was not telling a cold joke.
It seemed to him that it was only natural that no one could match him in close combat, and that it would be an unbelievable situation.
However, through these two days of contact, he could completely feel that Luo Hongyun was not that unruly character.
"Uncle Luo, are you an ordinary person?"
Xia Xu looked hesitantly at Luo Hongyun again.
"What else can I be if I'm not a human being?"
Luo Hongyun chuckled.
Xia Xu explained and added: "I mean ordinary people, have you never practiced any martial arts secrets, or taken any special drugs?"
"Read less martial arts novels."
Luo Hongyun thought that Xia Xu wanted to be lazy and get quick results, so he laughed dumbly and said: "Do you really think that there is any inner strength in martial arts in reality, that you can practice it by meditating, and that you can improve quickly by taking a panacea?
If you want to learn fighting, abandon these unrealistic fantasies and just train honestly and supplement your nutrition."
"No, I just... have a new understanding of how powerful you are, Uncle Luo."
Xia Xu said seriously.
He did have a new understanding of Luo Hongyun's strength. This five-star talent, especially the double five-star talent of weapon fighting and fighting, is probably far more terrifying than he imagined.
A person who is not unruly or arrogant will subconsciously think that it is unbelievable to have an opponent who can match him. How much strength and how many victories does it take to build this confidence?
The reason why I just asked Luo Hongyun if he was an ordinary person was because he guessed that Luo Hongyun might have practiced some martial arts secrets, national arts, or taken some medicines, or received some black technological transformations. Through these, he was far beyond the scope of normal human beings, so he became
I feel incredible that someone can match me.
But now it seems that this is not the case. There is only one situation. Luo Hongyun has probably never suffered a defeat in melee combat and even showed a crushing level gap from beginning to end. Countless victories have created his subconscious mind.
of absolute confidence.
This is very scary. If this happens, not to mention that he is invincible in the world in terms of melee combat, at least he is definitely the best in the country.
Perhaps in this modern technological society, what is more important is the power of weapons and equipment, and what is more needed is teamwork and numerical superiority, but it is undeniable that this is also an unparalleled achievement.
And...in this Xia Kingdom city, he is probably invincible.
