Chapter 39: A Model of Acting Tough
"Don't worry, you are already Third Brother’s master, he will definitely treat you well in the future, are you afraid there will be no money?" I smiled and signaled Third Brother.
Third Brother originally wanted to refuse, but seeing my look, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the old beggar and called, "Master!"
Third Brother had always been at ease with my words because he knew that I must have a reason for doing this and wouldn't harm him.
Sure enough, seeing Third Brother kneeling and kowtowing, the old beggar smiled and nodded, "Although your aptitude and foundation aren't good, you are still diligent. With me teaching you, your future will be limitless. Besides, you have already become my apprentice, so I will teach you some!"
After saying that, the old beggar touched Third Brother’s head just like before. Not long after, Third Brother opened his eyes and looked at the old beggar in disbelief, feeling like he was dreaming. Finally, he reacted and knelt on the ground again, "Thank you, Master!"
This time Third Brother was truly thanking him. Originally, he thought this old man was purely a liar, but he didn't expect him to be a real expert, and it also refreshed his worldview.
After Third Brother finished speaking, he looked at me suspiciously, as if waiting for my answer. I nodded, and Third Brother knew that all of this was actually true, and sighed, "Damn, I really feel like I’m dreaming today. This is too incredible, it can’t be explained by science at all!"
"Forget it, science? You don't even study much! What do you know about science!" I looked at Third Brother irritably.
"You guys are still too young and have shallow knowledge. Go out and see the world more in the future, and you will find that there are many things that are incredible to you!" The old beggar smiled.
"Master, when can we practice to your level?" Third Brother asked happily.
"You guys, with your current situation, it will probably take seventy or eighty years of practice to reach my level!" The old beggar looked at us and said.
"What? Seventy or eighty years? Then what’s the use of practicing this thing!" Third Brother said disappointedly.
"You know nothing. If you practice this for a few years, ordinary people will not be your match. Unless you meet the same kind of people, you can walk sideways. It’s no problem for one person to beat dozens of people!" The old beggar said proudly.
"Ah, only beat dozens? I thought I was invincible!" Third Brother curled his lips, obviously very dissatisfied.
"Damn, do you think this is cheating? And you’re directly invincible? Why don't you fly to the sky? Also, I’ll remind you, don't use the Wu Gong moves I gave you easily, unless you encounter life-threatening danger or meet the same kind of people! These are the rules of the Jianghu, so you must remember them!" The old beggar warned.
Then, when we wanted to say something else, we found that the old beggar was already gone, and we couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, it was the demeanor of an expert.
Third Brother looked around, searched for a long time, and finally didn't find the old beggar, and said enviously, "Sigh, when can I reach this level? It’s too cool, it’s simply coming without a shadow and leaving without a trace, a true expert’s demeanor!"
I smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, one day you will!"
These days, Zhuge Yue would appear whenever she was free to find Zhang Yinuo and me to eat together. However, those boys also looked at me with envy, jealousy, and hatred. But some people were also full of gratitude towards me, because of me, they were able to see Zhuge Yue.
Although I had tried to understand Zhuge Yue’s situation these days, from beginning to end, I only knew her name and her deeds in school, and nothing else. Every time this topic was brought up, she could always bypass it appropriately. After a few times, I knew she didn't want to talk about this, so I didn't understand it anymore. After all, doing so would make others dislike me.
The techniques and Wu Gong moves the old beggar passed on to us were really quite good. After two days of breathing and exhaling, I clearly felt that my whole body was much lighter, and my whole body was exuding unusual power. The 10,000-meter morning run didn't make me pant heavily anymore. In short, the effect was still very great. Perhaps, as the old beggar said, after practicing for many years, I might become a big boss.
This day, when Third Brother and I were eating at noon as usual, Zhuge Yue appeared in front of us as usual.
Seeing Zhuge Yue’s arrival, Third Brother shouted excitedly, "Come sit here, sit here!"
However, he was still rejected as usual, but Third Brother was already used to it. Wang Xiaopang was also there, because these days he found that as long as he followed Third Brother and me to the cafeteria to eat, the probability of meeting Zhuge Yue was quite high. Although the goddess had never looked at him directly, he didn't care at all, as long as he could look at Zhuge Yue from afar, he was satisfied.
Zhuge Yue sat beside me, her expression lost its usual spirit. I looked at her suspiciously and asked, "What’s wrong? Did something happen?"
Zhuge Yue looked at me and said, "You might have something to do today!"
"Me? What could I have to do?" I looked at Zhuge Yue in confusion and asked.
"Chen Zhen invited people from outside the school, and he also found quite a few people. Today he might come to trouble you, be careful yourself!" Zhuge Yue frowned and said.
"Chen Zhen, damn, that coward still dares to come? If he dares to come, I’ll be the first to slap him to death!" Third Brother cursed with disdain. For Chen Zhen, Third Brother had always looked down on him.
"Oh? Is that so? I’d like to see how you slap me today!" Suddenly, a sentence came, attracting everyone’s attention.
It was Chen Zhen and more than twenty people. This lineup was even stronger than last time, and there were quite a few with tattoos. At a glance, they were little hooligans from society, holding sticks and iron bars in their hands, looking like they were prepared to kill us.
"Does the school allow people from outside to come in?" I whispered to Zhuge Yue.
"They usually climb over the wall, or they are quite familiar with the security guards and come in!" Zhuge Yue didn't expect the other party to come so quickly.
"Damn, they really dare to come!" Seeing this scene, Third Brother couldn't help but curse.
Chen Zhen looked at Third Brother with a dark face and cursed, "Xu Hongzhi, today I’ll see you prepare to wait for death!"
Third Brother looked at these twenty-something people with disdain and said, "Is that all the people you brought? Call everyone you can call, I’m afraid these people won't be enough to beat later!"
Before Chen Zhen could speak, a bare-chested man holding a stick walked over and was about to make a move on Third Brother, cursing, "Damn, what are you acting tough for?" ===== CHAPTER 40 =====
