When Lin Ergou realized that he had been deceived, Xu Desheng did not hear or see his anger for a while, so he asked curiously:
"Dog, aren't you angry?"
Lin Ergou shook his head and replied:
"Angry...but, if you are not as good as others in doing something you want to do, you should not express your anger at others! Bufan is angry because of his own ignorance!"
Hearing this, Xu Desheng was very satisfied, so he said to Lin Ergou seriously:
"Dog, the path of cultivation will never go smoothly... Remember what I said today! When you encounter setbacks in the future, don't blame others, always look at yourself and look for your own problems! Only by constantly reflecting and thinking can you
It will make you progress! Don’t underestimate this kind of progress, even if it’s only a little bit, it can often save your life or... give you a great path!”
Lin Ergou nodded and remembered these words deeply in his heart.
He also suddenly realized that he had grown up. After thinking about it for a while, he found that he was flying into the sky with his master. When he saw the world under his feet, he became enlightened!
From that moment on, his perspective on things changed!
Seeing Lin Ergou deep in thought, Xu Desheng did not interrupt him. After he thought it through, he asked:
"Dog, tell Master, what do you want to learn?!"
"study?!"
Lin Ergou fell into deep thought again, because he suddenly realized that he had no specific ideas. The scope of his dream was too large, and it was difficult to summarize something like "extraordinary".
"Open your mind and go out for a walk!"
With Lin Ergou looking confused, Xu Desheng touched the few sparse beards on his chin and asked him to go out for a walk.
Hearing this, Lin Ergou hesitated a little, with a look of worry in his eyes.
Xu Desheng is a man who has lived for thousands of years. How could he not see this young man's concerns, so he smiled kindly and said:
"Don't worry! I won't leave, my master! It just so happens that you can meditate quietly during this period to recover your cultivation... Tell the people in Huangjia Village not to disturb you before your master leaves this door!"
Lin Ergou felt relieved, quickly bowed and respectfully closed the door and left.
After he walked for a long time, Xu Desheng took his eyes back from the door and said with a wry smile:
"His grandma, how could I have the thought of thanking that little bastard? Crazy! Crazy..."
After a few self-deprecating words, Xu Desheng sat cross-legged, took a deep breath and became silent. His breathing frequency was very strange, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, sometimes soft, sometimes like thunder... without taking a breath,
There would be a faint white mist flying into his nostrils from the air, and every time he took a breath, a turbid mist would come out through the crack in the door.
…………
"What do I want to learn?"
Lin Ergou walked on the road in the village in a spirited manner. His heart was already filled with this. He didn't even hear the greetings from his uncle with a playful smile, let alone the voices of the villagers.
Under the resentful eyes of the widow's neighbors, he walked straight through Huangjia Village and into the mountains and forests.
The sun sets in the west, and soon it will take away its last light and plunge the world into darkness.
Lin Ergou didn't stop. He didn't even know what he was doing. He just wanted to know what he 'wanted to learn.' Apart from this question, there was nothing else in his mind.
That time when he looked down at the earth, he changed a lot. When someone told him in a positive tone at that time what his future would be like, his state of mind was already different.
It's hard to imagine that a boy over fifteen years old would be in such a situation, considering that his peers are still fantasizing, fooling around and even getting into trouble!
In fact, it is not unexpected that this kind of thing happened to Lin Ergou, because he has wanted to change since he was a child, change himself, change his life, change everything around him... He has a dream, although he doesn't know what his dream is specifically.
; But based on the long-term brewing of seeking change, at this moment, his state of mind is like the daughter's red wine that has been opened from the seal - the ordinary wine at the beginning has become a fine wine at this moment!
Soon after, because he didn't expect it, he raised his head and looked around with doubtful eyes, watching the sun set in the west, watching the clouds rolling in the western sky, watching the tired birds returning to the forest, watching the clear wind blowing on the grass...
Finally, when he saw the grass blades bitten by ants, his eyes suddenly lit up!
He thought about it because he remembered that not long after he learned to walk, he saw people fighting outside the door, one with a sword and the other with a sword.
He remembered that the man with the sword had won, and his eyes were full of envy, because that man's victory was easy, with just one sword!
He still remembered what his father said when he had the courage to ask his father to teach him how to practice swordsmanship:
"Bah! You can't walk until you are six years old! You want to learn a sword too?! Can you handle it?! Besides, this is the Sword Tyrant Domain, the territory of the Golden Sword Sect. If you don't learn the sword, how can you get ahead..."
He still remembered how he cried and begged for a small wooden sword from his mother, and even remembered how his father stepped on it and broke it after he found it...
When he was done, he cried, cried very sadly, and after crying, he forgot about the sword!
"sword?!"
His eyes brightened. After squatting down and carefully delivering the blade of grass to the entrance of the ant nest not far away, he stood up and turned back.
…………
Lin Ergou only saw Xu Desheng in the evening of the next day. After he came back yesterday and found that the door was still closed, he stopped and stood in front of the door to help his master guard the door.
After Xu Desheng finished breathing, he felt Lin Ergou standing staggeringly outside the door. He was shocked and quickly opened the door and helped him in.
He was about to scold Lin Ergou by saying, "If you are weak, don't act recklessly," but Lin Ergou grinned and said to him:
"Master, I want to learn...sword!"
Xu Desheng was stunned, with his mouth wide open as he stared blankly at his cheap apprentice.
Although he had already seen that Lin Ergou was serious, he still couldn't help but ask:
"Why?"
Lin Ergou chuckled and replied:
"Disciple, I remembered that when I was a child, my mother-in-law made me a wooden sword, but my father stepped on it and broke it... I want to have another sword, a sword that will not break!"
Hearing this, Xu Desheng laughed and said:
"good!"
Having said that, his words did not end:
"Although I am not a swordsman, I still have a lot of talent in my mind, hehe..."
Having said this, he put his head next to Lin Ergou's ear and whispered:
"My master knows a...god-level swordsmanship!"
Seeing that Lin Ergou didn't understand, Xu Desheng added:
"The sword technique that can kill gods!"
"Really?!"
Lin Ergou suddenly broke away from Xu Desheng's support and supported Xu Desheng instead, eyes wide open.
"real!"
Xu Desheng nodded solemnly, and continued without waiting for Lin Ergou to ask further questions:
"My good disciple, go and rest quickly! Master went to hunt a spiritual beast and came back to replenish your body. In a few days, Master will teach you the art of breathing and breathing and the sword technique!"
"yes!"
Lin Ergou agreed wholeheartedly and immediately walked into the house and lay down.
Xu Desheng turned around and walked out. As soon as he walked out, his face fell. He had learned a lot, but he didn't know anything about swordsmanship... not even a slightly advanced one.
Don't talk about god-level or not.
The reason why I deceived Lin Ergou was just because I didn't want to disappoint him...
"What should I do? I can't let my disciple down! I can teach him the art of breathing and breathing, my "Hetian Art", but the sword technique..."
Xu Desheng was distressed and walked into the mountains in great distress.
…………
Early the next morning, Xu Desheng walked out of the forest carrying a big wild boar that was bigger than a thatched house.
"Look!"
"Oh my God! That's..."
"Spirit...spirit beast?!"
…
When Xu Desheng came out, the villagers had already gotten up. Because it was summer and too hot, they planned to do more work before sunrise.
Since there are no ferocious beasts in this area, people like them settled here. There are not even ferocious beasts nearby, let alone any spiritual beasts.
At first, no one recognized what it was. It wasn't until the village chief, who had a foundation-building level of cultivation, arrived that he recognized it as a spiritual beast, but didn't know its specific name.
It's a coincidence that this spiritual beast once chased and killed Xu Desheng and was hated by him. I didn't expect to encounter it this time when I entered the mountain.
The hunting place is not close to here, but now Xu Desheng's cultivation has returned to the Nascent Soul stage, and the cultivation in the past few days has also restored his spiritual energy to 77788. It doesn't take two moves to kill this kind of spiritual beast.
Recruitment is enough.
"Master!"
Lin Ergou's feet were weak. He did not expect that this cheap master could be so capable. He could kill at will. In just one night, he would appear in front of him with tens of thousands of kilograms of spiritual beast meat.
Bang!
"hey-hey!"
Xu Desheng's face was full of joy, and he could be said to be proud of the spring breeze. He didn't want to delay for a moment. After putting the big wild boar down, he said what he thought of:
"Disciple! Find some villagers to come over and help with the processing. Each of them will have meat as big as a fist! Remember to ask them to punch out their blood for you to drink! Also...can you ask if anyone in the village knows how to do blacksmith work? If so?
Let him help forge ten swords!"
Having said this, Xu Desheng wiped his face with the towel handed over by his obedient disciple, and then continued:
"The first handle is the weight of an iron pan; the second handle is the weight of two iron pans...increasing in order."
"yes!"
Lin Ergou turned around and went to work without hesitation. Xu Desheng was very satisfied, because this kind of apprentice who doesn't ask "why" is a good apprentice!
He was so relieved that he couldn't help but want to say those damn words again - thank you, little bastard!
Thinking of these words, Xu Desheng jumped up suddenly and shouted to the sky:
"Don't even think about it! Little bastard! Just wait for me!"
This roar was so sudden that Lin Ergou and the villagers in the distance were startled.
"snort!"
After Xu Desheng scolded him vigorously, Lin Ergou clenched his fist tightly and said in his heart:
"Little bastard! One day, I, Lin Ergou, will definitely skin you!"
