Young hero, please stay! !

Chapter 15 teaches you how to practice boxing without learning!
There are only a few dozen people in Anning Village, and any news about anyone's family will be known to everyone the next day.Everyone in the village has heard that some distant relatives have come to Uncle Song's house. They are said to be wealthy families from the county. The carriage is still parked at the foot of the mountain. The villagers, who have never seen outsiders in their lives, arrived at dawn. They gathered around the door of Old Uncle Song's house, wanting to see what kind of people his wealthy relatives were.

After arriving, I discovered that Old Uncle Song had gone to the fields with his two relatives before dawn, leaving only his wife and son at home to accompany the old woman. How could those aunts and mothers-in-law who had never left the village in their lives still be there? I have seen such a beautiful daughter-in-law. The yard was as lively as a market. I started chatting with this young daughter-in-law.

Su Xiaotong had a cold temperament, so he could only deal with these aunts and mothers-in-law who would not see him again for a long time.

Uncle Song wants to teach Meng You boxing.

Meng You, who was originally in high spirits, couldn't sleep well all night, but who would have thought that before dawn, he was pulled to the ground by Old Man Song.

The whole morning was spent hoeing the ground and planting rice seedlings. By the time the sun went up, Meng You and the little Taoist priest were already too tired to straighten their waists.

Old Uncle Song sat on a boulder at the edge of the field and dozed off. When he woke up, he found that the boy was not lazy and complaining. Instead, he had been doing farm work seriously. His impression of this boy was slightly better.

They agreed on three tricks last night. At least this kid's ability to endure hardships is now barely passed. But this is only the first day. Mr. Song has seen too many characters who are hot for three minutes and grit their teeth and persist for several days when their brains are hot. , but no one has ever been able to persevere to the end without gaining anything.

This was his first test. If he couldn't hold on, he wanted to learn boxing from himself?Bullshit!Let’s have some fun!

Seeing that all the other farmers had gone home, Old Uncle Song got down from the boulder, stopped the two of them, and then performed a set of boxing skills in front of them!
The little Taoist priest watched it with great interest, and from time to time he followed Old Uncle Song to learn how to draw gourds and ladles, and he learned in a decent way.

But Meng You could only stand there and watch quietly.

Uncle Song's second rule is that he can teach boxing, but he can only watch it, not learn it!When Old Uncle Song spoke, Meng You could seriously learn boxing skills.

After finishing a set of punches, Old Man Song stretched out and shouted loudly: "Hurry up and go home for dinner. After dinner, go to the mountain to chop a hundred kilograms of firewood!"

Uncle Song's third rule is, don't ask.

After finishing his meal, Meng You, who was covered in mud, went up the mountain with his ax without saying a word.The old woman looked at the young man with satisfaction, but with such a stubborn temper that even eight cows could not control, it would be a waste of resources to not be the apprentice of her old man!
An old stubborn donkey and a young stubborn donkey!

Seeing that the little Taoist priest wanted to follow him, Old Man Song immediately stopped him: "You don't want to learn boxing, so why are you suffering? If you have nothing to do, just look at the wind, the trees, and plant crops. That stupid boy has poor qualifications. , you have to endure hardships, a guy like you who cultivates the way of heaven, just don’t get involved if you have nothing to do!"

The little Taoist priest didn't know what Old Man Song meant, but he didn't dare to refute it. Since Old Man Song asked him to just look at the wind and the trees when he was fine, that was just right. Where could he not look at it?

The two left at noon and did not return until late at night.

It's just that one is hobbling tiredly, while the other is refreshed.

Old Uncle Song was waiting alone in the yard and told the little Taoist priest to go back to the house to sleep. He only left Meng You alone. Without talking much, he repeated the boxing skills he had shown today. Like a normal person, he asked Meng You to go to the stream to fetch water and fill the three water tanks in the yard before going to sleep.

Meng You struggled to carry the pole and walked out of the courtyard without looking back.Old Uncle Song looked at his back and felt more and more that this young man was a bit interesting.

In this way, Meng You would follow Old Man Song to work in the fields before dawn, go to the mountains to chop firewood in the afternoon, and carry water late at night, without seeing anyone all day long.

Time flies, and three months pass quietly in the blink of an eye.

Meng You was busy every day without any complaints. Within three months, this set of work had become easy to do. Not only did the crops grow extremely well, even such good things as cutting firewood and carrying water were spread throughout the village, and every day The yards of every household are piled with firewood, and the water tanks are full every day, which makes the whole village come to visit Old Uncle Song's house no matter what, and never say a word about Old Uncle Song's diligent distant relative. relative!
But the more you praise him, the worse Mr. Song's face becomes!It's been three whole months, and as expected, that bastard boy didn't even have a single question. He just did whatever he was asked to do. He was so embarrassed in front of his wife that he couldn't even speak as hard as before!
He said that this kid would explode if he couldn't hold on for a month, but now it's been three months, and Mr. Song, who has been used to being tough all his life, doesn't even dare to express his anger recently!

It's all this bastard's fault!
Old Uncle Song sat on the boulder at the edge of the field, looked at the boy who had grown much stronger, and waved him to sit next to him.Seeing the smile on the young man's face, Mr. Song couldn't help but feel angry!

"Boy! It's been three months, and you haven't complained a single bit! Aren't you afraid that I'm a charlatan with no skills, wasting your time on me?"

"Afraid." Meng You looked at Old Man Song candidly, "But I'm even more afraid of missing the opportunity to learn martial arts. I'm just an ordinary person with no background and no talent. Can I only take advantage of hardship? Besides, we are here Living and eating for free for three months, isn't it just doing some work? What's there to say?"

Old Uncle Song looked at Meng You with a complicated expression, and said with some confusion: "Do you really want to learn martial arts? Do you really want to enter the martial arts world?"

Meng You looked at the golden wheat fields with a smile on his face: "Yes, my family runs a gambling shop, not a serious business, so my mother forced me to study since I was a child, hoping that I can get a good name in the future. , I want to be a high official! But I got sleepy when I read a book and made several enlightened teachers angry. I learned other unskilled skills very quickly. In the end, I became effeminate and just didn’t bother to care about me. I loved doing it. Just go ahead and do whatever you want!"

"You see, what everyone is naturally suitable for and what they are not suitable for has been decided a long time ago. I like to eat big meat buns, but my mother doesn't like it. No matter how hard I try, I just don't like it, so why bother? My mother If you force me to study, I just can’t get into it. I just like to listen to the heroes in the story books all day long, and then run around like crazy in the mountains. This can’t be changed.”

"Although I have met many people who made me hate Jianghu before, I just like them if I like them. Although I have no talent and cannot learn any decent skills, I just want to enter Jianghu and have a look."

Old Uncle Song looked at Meng You with a longing look on his face, and sighed quietly, as if he remembered something interesting. Old Uncle Song, who had always had a cold face, also laughed softly: "Back then, I was just a person who only knew how to run around. Silly boy, when I met my master later, I didn’t have such thoughts as you. After a month of persistence, I couldn’t stand it anymore and stopped doing any work. So I pestered my master all day long to teach me boxing and kicking, and wanted to go outside quickly. Take a look at the world.”

"My master is a blacksmith. He is stupid and can't make any great sense. He also figured out his skills at random. He accidentally got the name of 'blacksmith' in the world. I asked him at that time. Master, why do I have to fetch water and chop firewood all day long, and can’t I learn Kung Fu well and then go out and make a name for myself? But my master just laughs and still makes me repeat the task of fetching water and chopping firewood every day.”

Mr. Song seemed to miss that carefree time: "But later, I really learned kung fu and became more capable than my master. I forgot about it a little. It can be said that my state has advanced rapidly. But later I discovered Ah, it’s not a good thing to improve your realm too quickly. It’s like building a house. As long as the foundation is unstable, no matter how high you build it, it will eventually collapse. Later, something happens and your Taoist heart is damaged, let alone It’s so angry.”

"My master used to be an ordinary blacksmith, and he only believed in one dead principle, 'A hundred times can forge good steel.' Before he died, he said something to me, saying that everything in this world is not faster, the better. , Only slow work can produce fine work, and cultivating the mind is far more important than cultivating the body." Old Uncle Song said calmly: "What happened later did prove that what my master said was correct. I will tell you this today, don't worry, Step by step, steadily, is the true meaning of cultivation." Meng You listened very seriously.

"Just like a pure martial artist, whether it is the first three floors, which are regarded as the entrance, or the copper skin, iron bones, and dragon tendons at the back, as long as you are willing to endure hardships, even a farmer who exercises every day will achieve success one day. It can be said that pure martial arts has the lowest threshold in the world, so many people jokingly call the first six levels of pure martial arts as 'useless skills', and have never taken it seriously. However, I, Song Zhiyuan, have chosen this approach and have not reached the goal. To the extreme, I, Song Zhiyuan, cannot be called a pure martial artist!"

"'If you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach a thousand miles.' If the foundation is not solid, how can you stand out from thousands of warriors in the future and enter the realm of 'martial courage' that can move mountains and fill seas in the eyes of the world!" Speaking of this, Song said The old man looked arrogant, "They say, 'To spoil a child is to kill one', but which parent in this world doesn't care about their children, but if I had been so cruel to my own child, I don't think he would have ended up like that in the future!"

Old Uncle Song looked at Meng You. After a few months of getting along with him, he had become more concerned about this stubborn young man. Old Uncle Song, who had always been talking to each other, now seemed a little hesitant.

"Do you know why the Prairie Royal Court has never touched the Central Plains for thousands of years?"

Meng You shook his head. He knew very little about the world.

"Leave aside Korea and Zhao, and just talk about the Qin State that has unified the world now. For thousands of years, it has always had an army of 10 men guarding the north. In the decisive battle between Qin and Chu, the Qin State was known as 'undefeated in a hundred battles' Chu's hundreds of thousands of warriors also became the laughing stock of the world under the hooves of this heavy cavalry."

"The Meng family's Zhenbei heavy cavalry recruits desperadoes from all over the world every midsummer. Regardless of origin, strength, or age, as long as they are forced to a desperate end, as long as they dare to put their heads on their belts, they will pass their assessment. , and you will be a member of the Zhenbei Heavy Cavalry for the rest of your life!" The old man looked at Meng You, "If you want to continue to learn martial arts from me, then go and break into the Dragon Pond and Tiger's Den. If you come back alive, the old man can take advantage of all his skills. go!"

"If you don't dare." The old man stared into Meng You's eyes, "Then learn some skills and leave. These skills are enough for you to gain a foothold in the world."

Meng You looked at the old man, his eyes never giving in!
He must join the Jianghu!

He must become a hero!
He has too many things on his mind that others don't know, and he needs to be strong enough to see through all the mysteries in his heart!

Meng You looked into Old Man Song's eyes and said firmly: "I want to go!"

At night, after everyone had gone to sleep, Meng You quietly carried the package and left Old Man Song's yard quietly.He didn't disturb anyone, and he hated the feeling of parting.

But to his surprise, as soon as he reached the entrance of the village, he saw Su Xiaotong, who had been waiting for him there for a long time.Su Xiaotong looked at him calmly, as if she had expected him to leave without saying goodbye.

Su Xiaotong looked at Meng You holding the sickle, frowned and said, "Do you expect it to cross the Baili Desert?"

Seeing that Su Xiaotong was a little unhappy, Meng You also smiled: "Why are you here? Aren't you asleep long ago?"

"Answer my question!" Su Xiaotong said to himself, "Do you know how dangerous that hundred miles of desert is!"

"Don't worry, you won't die." Meng You looked at Su Xiaotong with a playful smile. The moonlight tonight was extraordinarily round, reflecting Su Xiaotong's heroic face with crooked eyebrows. For the first time, Meng You felt that the unsmiling woman was actually very handsome. nice.

"It's none of my business whether you die or not! There's no need to promise me." Su Xiaotong's face was cold, but her actions still betrayed her, "Take it and remember to return it to me when you come back!"

Meng You took the short knife thrown by Su Xiaotong, looked at it carefully, and said, "Where did you get this good knife? It must be worth a lot of money, right?"

"What I borrowed from you must be returned." Su Xiaotong looked at the young man who was still willing to laugh, and threatened: "If you die, I will definitely go to find you, and then I will crush you to ashes in return for borrowing the knife." No revenge!"

Meng You smiled when he heard this and said nonchalantly: "I know, I know! I will definitely come back alive and well." Looking at Su Xiaotong's appearance, Meng You suddenly said softly: "Thank you for the longevity noodles."

Su Xiaotong deliberately didn't look at him, just turned his back and let him leave.

Before, he just said casually that he was born on June [-]th, but he never thought that he would actually take his casual words to his heart.

Su Xiaotong was very angry. She never thought that one day she would actually do something embarrassing to her daughter's family.

That day, when he came back from carrying water late at night, Su Xiaotong had already cooked longevity noodles unconsciously and was sitting in the yard waiting for him.

Originally, he had a cold face and didn't want to admit his little thoughts, but seeing him eating the longevity noodles he had just learned with satisfaction, Su Xiaotong's prepared words were not uttered in the end.

Not a single word.

Meng You, who had gradually gone away, did not look back, only the sound came!

“Longevity noodles, it’s better to add more chopped green onion for more flavor!”

Su Xiaotong didn't look at his retreating figure, but just cursed 'bastard' angrily!
It seems that from now on, I really need to put more chopped green onions in the longevity noodles I make.
