Chapter 124: My strength is very average. I don’t know what’s so funny.
“I suddenly have something going on here. Why don’t you wait for me a little longer? I’ll come and pick you up right away after it’s done.”
“How long will it take?”
“One to two hours. About."
"Forget it, just send the address."
"."
Lu Yuan hung up the phone, his face not showing much emotion.
Before coming, Lin Zhiqin gave him a number and asked him to contact the other party directly when he arrived at the station, and someone would pick him up.
Lu Yuan made the call on the high-speed train.
As a result, after arriving at the station, I waited for fifteen minutes before I learned that the other party had something to do and could not come.
The other party's words on the phone were very sincere, as if he was really delayed by the matter.
"Handsome boy, where are you going? Do you want to take a carriage?"
A girl wearing a hat, slender and dressed in an antique style paid attention to Lu Yuan for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ran over to ask Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was waiting for the address on the other side of the phone. Following the direction of the girl's wheat-colored arm, he actually saw a two-wheel carriage parked in the shade not far away.
The carriage is also made of the same wood as in costume dramas, with plain curtains hanging on all sides. When the wind blows, it feels like a wanderer.
"Take a tour around the outer city and pass by hundreds of martial arts schools, which will make you dream back to the ancient martial arts world."
The girl wearing a bamboo hat said in a loud voice, obviously speaking with the same skill that she had said countless times.
"Ding dong——"
Lu Yuan's cell phone rang. Lu Yuan picked it up and checked it. He was hesitating whether to experience the feeling of riding a horse across the rivers and lakes.
At this time, a middle-aged man with dark skin and a kettle in his hand intervened.
"Young man, please think carefully. This thing cannot enter the inner ring. It can only be used on certain specific routes in the outer ring.
It's slow and it's hot inside. Maybe you'll have to take a taxi. Why don't you
just take our taxi?"
"How can you be so ruthless about business?"
The girl in the bamboo hat glared at him.
Uncle Kettle looked nonchalant, "What am I trying to do to grab business? I'm just giving some suggestions. It's mainly up to the young man to make his own decision."
Lu Yuan made a decision, and finally chose to get into a taxi.
The girl in the bamboo hat wasn't upset at all. She just followed Lu Yuan and shouted, "It's okay if the handsome guy doesn't want to take the car and add his contact information."
Thirty minutes later, Lu Yuan got out of the taxi.
What appeared in front of him was an antique courtyard.
This place is quite remote. The taxi driver said that it already belongs to the suburbs.
"Linghexuan."
Lu Yuan looked at the three small gilt characters in front of the small courtyard, and his eyes flickered slightly.
There were many ancient Chinese characters engraved on the blue-gray courtyard wall. Lu Yuan stared at them for a while and found that they were actually a recipe.
Well, let’s talk about how to cook snake soup.
It was interesting.
Lu Yuan called the receptionist again, and this time he was asked to come in directly.
He stepped into the small arched courtyard and saw a stone screen.
Both sides of the bluestone path were planted with welcoming bamboos, and a cool breeze blew slowly, seemingly not leaving even a trace of the heat.
The yard was larger than Lu Yuan expected.
The rockeries, fish ponds, and pavilions are full of tranquil and elegant charm, just like an ancient garden.
It's just that he walked in for almost three minutes and didn't see anyone.
"There's no one guarding the door, aren't you afraid of thieves?"
Lu Yuan thought to himself, then he considered that this was the headquarters of the Tianshuihui Crane Sect, so there wouldn't be many thieves who would dare to sneak in and steal things.
"I forgot to call Lin Zhiqin."
Lu Yuan remembered that he had not messaged Lin Zhiqin after arriving and was about to get his cell phone.
Suddenly a voice sounded in his ear.
"Who are you? How did you get in?"
Lu Yuan was suddenly shocked. With his current sensitivity, he didn't even notice that someone was bullying him.
He immediately turned his head following the sound, only to find two people standing dozens of meters away from him.
Sound transmission through the air?
Lu Yuan was startled for a moment, and then replied calmly: "I am Coach Lin's student, and I am here to take part in the personal assessment." "
Lin Zhiqin?"
Lu Yuan's eyesight was very good, and he saw the leader in the distance with his combed hair. The middle-aged man with a ruddy complexion seemed to be twitching his lips.
Then he turned his head and said a few words to a young man behind him who looked to be in his early twenties, turned around and left.
Lu Yuan stood still, watching the young man following behind him walking towards him.
"You're taking part in the personal examination, right?"
The young man has short hair and an average appearance. There are traces of a piercing on his left earlobe, but nothing is hanging on it.
"Let's go, I'll take you in, so you don't have to wander around here."
The young man had a slightly weird expression when talking to Lu Yuan, and his eyebrows were slightly bent, as if he was smiling, but he didn't know what he was laughing at.
Lu Yuan keenly sensed that the young man's mood seemed to be a bit fluctuating.
Especially when it comes to personal assessment.
He probably guessed something and didn't say anything, just silently followed the young man.
The young man took him all the way into the courtyard until he met a middle-aged man with a short ponytail and white clothes and black trousers in a hall.
Taking advantage of the situation, I left Lu Yuan to him.
"Master Uncle Lin's disciples must be entertained. They spent a lot of money to come here." The
young man half-jokingly told the pony-tailed middle-aged man, then smiled at Lu Yuan and turned to leave.
"It's a long way, sorry." As
soon as the young man left, the middle-aged Ponytail explained to him apologetically: "Senior Brother Tang happened to be here when you got off the high-speed rail, and I really can't spare the time to pick you up." "
Tang Senior brother, is that it?"
Lu Yuan described the appearance of the middle-aged man with his back he just saw.
The middle-aged Mawei nodded, "Yes, that's Senior Brother Tang. The one who just brought you here is Senior Brother Tang's candidate for this election, named Wang Xu."
No wonder.
Lu Yuan nodded and asked, "What should I call you?"
"Just call me Liu Si."
The pony-tailed middle-aged man smiled at Lu Yuan and then led him further inside.
The inside of the house seems to be larger than the courtyard outside.
There are antique furnishings, screens, calligraphy and paintings, and antiques everywhere.
Liu Si led Lu Yuan all the way to the innermost place and stopped in front of a room next to the corridor.
There is an ancient patio next to it, with pines and bamboos planted around it, and stone tables and benches in the middle. The environment is still very good.
"I feel sorry for you to live here these days."
Liu Si opened the door and gave Lu Yuan a key.
There is also an elegantly decorated room inside, but at a glance, modern facilities are also available, which is almost better than a hotel.
"Three meals a day will be specially delivered to you. You can also go to the restaurant to dine. It's the penultimate hall you passed when you first arrived.
If you need anything, you can call me at any time."
Liu Si told Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan thought for a while and asked, "Can I walk around if I have nothing to do?"
Liu Si hesitated and replied, "It's okay at the door and nearby, but try not to go further away. The owner likes to be clean and hates people the most. Just wander around in front of him. It would be bad if you get bumped into."
"Oh."
Lu Yuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
Liu Si left quickly.
Lu Yuan walked into the room and tried the light in the room and the faucet in the bathroom. There was no problem, so he sat down on the bed.
He is quite satisfied with the living conditions.
He picked up his cell phone and reported to his parents that he was safe, saying that he had checked into the hotel and that he came out this time to trick his family into traveling to Weishan.
Then he called Lin Zhiqin, but no one answered.
I simply sent a text message directly.
No wandering around, no wandering around, there isn't even a TV in this room.
Lu Yuan felt a little bored, thought for a while, closed his eyes and entered the conscious space.
Deep in the quiet bamboo forest.
A small stream meandered past, making the sound of gurgling water.
With the gentle sound of the wind blowing in the bamboo forest, there is a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
In front of the stone table by the stream, Lin Zhiqin and a middle-aged woman with neat short hair sat opposite each other.
"Back then, you disobeyed the teacher's order and secretly let him go.
Now that he's back, he will most likely come to you, or at least meet you once.
The teacher can't tell what his attitude is.
But look. She still looks like she can't take this breath."
The short-haired woman with long eyebrows and narrow eyes, a white face without wrinkles, whispered in a low voice, picked up the clay pot on the table and poured Lin Zhiqin a cup of tea.
Lin Zhiqin's face was solemn and his brows were furrowed.
The short-haired woman sighed softly, and then persuaded: "This is such a good opportunity. If you seize it, the teacher may forgive you. Junior Brother Lin" Lin Zhiqin was silent for a while, then slowly said: "If he comes back to
me , I will definitely report it to the teacher."
The short-haired woman frowned, but then she heard again.
"But it's not to ask for forgiveness from the teacher. I did nothing wrong in that matter. Even now
, I will still do that."
"Junior Brother Lin!"
the short-haired woman shouted, with a slight sullen expression on her face. .
Lin Zhiqin lowered his head and remained silent.
The short-haired woman suddenly looked helpless again, waved her hand and said, "Forget it, do whatever you want."
Then she changed the subject and asked, "How is Momo?"
Lin Zhiqin's shoulders moved. This time he spoke.
"Surgery next month."
"Just make an appointment for the surgery."
The short-haired woman nodded and said, "I paid Xinlan some money. You don't have to worry about the surgery fee." "
I"
Lin Zhiqin pursed his lips. Just when I was about to say something, my phone suddenly vibrated.
He took out his cell phone, glanced at it, and quickly put it down.
"The disciple I recommended is here."
The short-haired woman's expression moved slightly and said, "Is it the one who spent 20 million?"
Lin Zhiqin glanced at the woman and nodded: "Yes. But even if I didn't have 20 million, I would still I'll bring him here."
The woman's eyes flashed, she picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip, moistening her lips.
"I heard Qin Feng say that you are very optimistic about him?"
"Yes."
Lin Zhiqin nodded, and his face seemed to glow a little.
"His physical talent is very good, and his understanding is also extremely good.
A month ago, I only taught him the Zhuang technique, and he actually understood the true posture from it." "
How many times have I seen him?"
"Once. But privately, he may not have a second chance. times."
"Perhaps we met by chance."
"That's amazing enough.
Except for that person, I have never seen such an outstanding martial arts embryo."
"It's just what you think."
The short-haired woman looked calm and said: "Perhaps this kid's talent is as outstanding as you said.
But don't think about it this time. The direct position is almost settled."
"What do you mean?"
Lin Zhiqin frowned.
The short-haired woman looked at the purple clay pot in front of her and said calmly: "Second senior brother has accepted a disciple for the teacher. At a
young age, he has already entered Zang training, understood a real skill, and has developed He Jin.
This so-called assessment , It's just a formality."
"Every aspect that is on the surface is much better than yours." The
short-haired woman turned to look at Lin Zhiqin, "Tell me, why should the teacher choose You don't choose him?"
Lin Zhiqin looked stunned as he listened to the woman's story.
Suddenly there was a feeling of dejection in his body, and he held the stone table with both hands without saying a word.
The stream gurgled.
The short-haired woman took Lin Zhiqin's tea cup and spilled the already cool tea inside into the running water at her feet.
consciousness space.
"Huh-chih-huh-"
Lu Yuan breathed steadily, his veins bulging, and his chest, with strips of muscles as tight as steel wires, rose and fell rhythmically.
The big green and black hand, as thick as a giant python, tightly held a figure in his hand and held it in the air.
The latter's body swayed feebly, and his fists and feet kept beating Lu Yuan's arm, but it had no effect at all.
Instead, it looks like a fish struggling to its death.
His fair face had already turned red, and the piercing in his left ear was quite conspicuous due to congestion.
"Click——"
Lu Yuan casually broke the young man's neck and threw it on the ground next to him like trash.
"My strength is very average. I don't know what's so funny."
"Crack-click--" There was
a continuous sound of bones, and Lu Yuan's figure returned to normal size.
"Let's try the one named Tang again."
Lu Yuan thought, exiting the consciousness space.
After briefly recovering, he closed his eyes again.
But this time the [Imaginary Enemy] target became the middle-aged man surnamed Tang with slicked back hair and a rosy complexion when he entered.
I heard that he seems to be one of the descendants of the Crane Sect.
