I Became an Old Man in My Leisure Time

Chapter 223: Eyes Meet, but There Is Always a Parting

Jiang Shun laughed: "Uncle Qiu, your swordsmanship is so powerful, you must be a master outside, right?"

Qiu Wu was startled, opened his mouth, and didn't think of how to explain for a while.

After a few breaths of silence, he carefully explained: "I was just a martial artist with one round and three turns before, and I can only say that I have some self-protection power."

"This swordsmanship was taught by the adults today. I practiced it to a small degree. I was afraid that I couldn't take three swords before yesterday."

Jiang Shun opened his mouth wide: "One round and three turns is not a master?"

"A great martial artist can only be called a master after two rounds, and a strong man after three rounds. I am just a martial artist with one round, just an entry." Qiu Wu smiled bitterly and shook his head, but he didn't despise Jiang Shun for his lack of common sense.

When this child has strength, he can basically find out how many months and years he has been walking outside.

Jiang Shun just hasn't had time to contact him, but if he enters here, who knows how good this child will be in the future?

Just as Qiu Wu said just now, before he entered the sect, he could not take on the three swords of Xiaocheng Balangdao. Jiang Shun and other children also entered the Wanshiwu, and they also had their own opportunities.

Besides, being young is also an advantage.

Balangdao is much higher than the middle-grade martial arts of the owner of the hall. Seven or eight out of ten are top-grade martial arts.

With Qiu Wu's talent, if he can start practicing martial arts at around the age of ten, he will become a second-round master before the age of thirty, and have the hope of becoming a martial arts master before the age of fifty.

Jiang Shun also said just now that they entered this place three days earlier than Qiu Wu.

That is to say, they had three more days of full meals than Qiu Wu, and also practiced martial arts for three days.

Qiu Wu has traveled around for more than ten years, and he would not think that getting a Balangdao means that the War King admires him the most.

When he was a child, he found that the children in the martial arts hall who were willing to calm down and teach them from the basics were basically the relatives and direct descendants of the owner.

But Qiu Wu did not have this treatment.

Of course, at this moment, he is no longer the young man who was not as nagging as before, and he will not speak out whatever he thinks.

Zhan Wang is not the owner of the hall, and he will not secretly pit him like the owner of the hall.

But as long as he is driven out of here, Qiu Wu will regret it to death.

He has never been to a place where a pot of wine or a meal is comparable to precious medicine in his life, and he doesn't want to miss a bite.

Qiu Wu feels that it is necessary to get to know Jiang Shun and these fifteen children.

Give these children some time. Will there be someone stronger than him? The probability is not too small.

Jiang Shun was a little bit unbelievable: "But when Uncle Qiu dances with a knife, he feels so fierce, much more powerful than the leader of the Iron Tiger Gang."

At this point, afraid that Qiu Wu didn't understand, he added: "The leader of the Iron Tiger Gang, Zhao Tiehu, is said to be a martial artist. The last time I saw him kill people very quickly."

Qiu Wu laughed and couldn't help but reached out to touch the purple bamboo straight knife at his side: "This knife and the Tyrant Wave knife technique were taught by Lord Zhan Wang. There shouldn't be many martial artists who can beat me."

Jiang Shun's eyes turned: "The Iron Tiger Gang has Zhao Tiehu, and they are very brave. These days they want to capture us and sell us."

Qiu Wu was stunned, looking up and down at Jiang Shun, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder slightly: "Brother Jiang Brother, since we meet here, I will definitely help you with this little favor. "

After a pause, he said: "However, are you sure you really need us to do it after you go out? The three adults have been teaching you martial arts these days. After some time, you may be able to settle this feud with your own hands. "

Jiang Shun laughed: "I feel close to Uncle Qiu as soon as I see him. We are just children, small and weak, and we can't sleep well if we are remembered by others. "

Qiu Wu was stunned again, and couldn't help but pat his shoulder again, a little harder than before: "Good boy, if I had your brain, I wouldn't have lost this arm. "

Jiang Shun opened his mouth, hesitated, and finally resisted asking what happened to his arm.

Qiu Wu guessed what he was thinking and took the initiative to explain: "When I was in my teens, I was too straightforward and couldn't let go of my face, so I lost my arm."

"If I had acted as decisively as you did, I might have been a two-wheeled master."

"Don't worry, when I get out, that Iron Tiger will definitely become a dead tiger, and he won't have the chance to cause trouble to you again."

Jiang Shun was stunned. He didn't expect Qiu Wu to be willing to help even though he knew he wanted to kill the "tiger" with a borrowed knife.

Qiu Wu looked at his dazed look, smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, I will go to the North Desert defense line soon. Kill a few hooligans before leaving, who will chase me to the North Desert to catch me?"

Jiang Shun's face was a little red, and he felt ashamed of his little thoughts: "Uncle Qiu, I..."

Qiu Wu waved his hand: "If you don't mind, you can call me Uncle Qiu, and I will call you Jiang Xiaodi, how about it?"

Jiang Shun hesitated and nodded: "Uncle Qiu, thank you."

"No, wait until I really kill that Tiehu, you can thank me later." Qiu Wu laughed, picked up the chopsticks again, and quickly scraped the remaining half bowl of rice.

He couldn't help but feel lucky in his heart: Fortunately, this meal today is a meal, and it can be eaten warm, otherwise it would be a pity to talk so much and the noodles would clump together.

Gu Ke noticed the exchange between the big and the small in his mind, and was not surprised by Qiu Wu's excessive "enthusiasm".

Perhaps it was the effect of the heaven and earth in Jiang Shun, or it could be that Qiu Wu saw Jiang Shun in the eye.

Just like Gu Ke thought these two were okay, he didn't mind giving them some benefits.

It was expected that Qiu Wu would help Jiang Shun solve some imminent small hidden dangers.

In fact, the biggest problem of Jiang Shun and his friends was that they had no martial arts foundation.

Giving these little beggars a few months to besiege a round of warriors is a waste of talent.

However, Xiaoman took action today and used blood and energy to remotely cripple the two minions of the Iron Tiger Gang. Jiang Shun and others are likely to be retaliated.

At this time, Qiu Wu took action to protect Jiang Shun and others once, which is the best.

Of course, Qiu Wu lost an arm, and based on his own strength of one round and three turns, the risk of making this promise is actually not small.

But this man has a heroic spirit after all - that is, what he said, "too straightforward, can't put down his face."

Even though he has been wandering around for these years, he has not lost this heroic spirit, otherwise there would be no hope for the third round, let alone the opportunity to enter this Wanshiwu.

Therefore, even if it was just a first acquaintance, Qiu Wu was willing to take the risk to help.

I wonder what will happen to these two people in the future? This thought flashed through Gu Ke's mind.

Unfortunately, things in the world are unpredictable, not to mention that now is a time of chaos and demons.

It is normal that there will be no chance to meet again in this life after just one encounter, and it is useless to think too much.

In the lobby on the first floor, after finishing his meal, Qiu Wu chatted with Jiang Shun during the lunch break.

The two also went to see the children's "playground" together.

Unlike Jiang Shun, Qiu Wu was amazed at the generous amount of money after just a general look at the tools, materials, and books.

Needless to say, the quality and function of the materials and tools are extremely outstanding, but what really impressed Qiu Wu were the books.

Whether it is the Wujing Zongyao that covers the key points of martial arts training, or the various craftsmanship skills, they can be used as heirlooms outside, and the kind that will not worry about food for eight or ten generations.

In this Wanshiwu, they are like the most ordinary sundries, allowing a group of children to read and use them.

Oh, no, I am not a child, but I also enjoy the same treatment. Qiu Wu took the Wujing Zongyao and felt that the key points of practice easily solved the doubts in his martial arts training for many years. He felt like he was dreaming, and his heart was inexplicable.

If this thing is in the hands of the owner, he will never be able to see it in his lifetime - because the owner has a son.

After lunch break, Gu Ke and the three women came downstairs.

Qiu Wu came forward to greet him, and said nervously that he had looked through those books without permission.

As a result, Gu Ke just waved his hand and said that these things were for public use and he could do as he pleased.

Qiu Wu was surprised and happy, and buried his head in the pile of books after thanking him.

Jiang Shun just said that the Wanshiwu would only be open until tomorrow noon, when he and the group of children would have to leave.

As for the Balangdao, Gu Ke had already given it to him, so he could find a place to concentrate on studying and practicing after leaving tomorrow.

Half a day passed in a flash, and when he woke up, it was the last half day in the Wanshiwu.

Gu Ke did not completely cancel the morning classes for the little beggars. Instead, he waited until after lunch and called them and Qiu Wu together: "We met after thousands of miles, but we will have to say goodbye. The five-day deadline is coming. From now on, you must practice martial arts diligently, work hard, and do your part to kill the monsters."

After a pause, he continued: "Finally, I will give you a little gift. Take them and go."

As he said this, he waved his hand, and all kinds of small things flew into the hands of Jiang Shun and others. They were some of the small items they made in the past few days.

There were clothes, boots, belts, hats, and bamboo and wood swords, guns, sticks, and clubs, all of which were the best quality.

Gu Ke and the three women took a short rest, completed the manufacturing, added attributes, and finally stamped the war seals one by one.

These small things became weapons with different functions.

In the Yulong Valley, these small things were not worth mentioning, and they would not be taken back to the warehouse.

Then Gu Ke waved his hand, and golden light sprinkled out and sank into the minds of Jiang Shun, Qiu Wu and others.

Jiang Shun and Qiu Wu were given three special martial arts, namely the Black Evil Palm, Sky Net Hand, and Water Floating, plus one battle book skill.

The rest of the children were given two special martial arts and one of the agricultural and industrial skills according to their different talents and habits.

While they were stunned, Gu Ke led the three girls to the passageway in the counter.

With a casual move, the lanterns and transaction books hanging on the wall of the passageway were taken down.

When the four people walked into the second floor, the light in the hall on the first floor immediately dimmed.

Immediately, the entire hall fluctuated like a phantom in the water, gradually becoming virtual, transparent, and disappearing.

In Xuanwei Prefecture City, the dim light of the sky in the winter afternoon fell on Qiu Wu, Jiang Shun and others, and the cold wind blew.

They suddenly woke up and found themselves in an empty alley.

Jiang Shun looked around and murmured, "This... is the alley where we met the two Iron Tiger Gang thugs a few days ago?"

Hearing this, a group of children also remembered it and echoed it.

Qiu Wu clenched the purple bamboo straight knife in his hand, took it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully, then touched his chest, felt the real touch of the "Balangdao", and then he breathed a sigh of relief - everything in the past two days was not an illusion.

Immediately, his heart began to beat.

The Wanshi House disappeared, and Gu Ke's harmony with heaven and man no longer existed.

At this time, Qiu Wu's mood was completely normal. The joy of obtaining exclusive martial arts and top-grade swordsmanship was so unbearable that he wanted to laugh up to the sky.

After a while, he finally suppressed the impulse and patted Jiang Shun lightly: "Jiang, this place is not far from the street, not a place to stay for a long time, let's find a place to settle down first."

With the help of Qiu Wu, who was mature and powerful, Jiang Shun and his group of children did not return to the original broken house, but found a secluded courtyard to live in.

A few days later, a heavy snow fell, and Xuanwei Prefecture in the north was much quieter.

Those weed-like seedlings are hiding under the heavy snow, quietly waiting for the arrival of next spring.

Back to the cave they had been away from for a long time,

Gu Ke, Xiao Ping'er, and Saranzhu didn't feel anything special.

These few days in the Wanshiwu, only Xiaoman couldn't come back, but they still withdrew their spiritual thoughts every day and worked in the valley.

Teaching Jiang Shun's group of children is a bit novel, but it's just novel.

After all, Xiaoman is not a teacher. He can endure for five days because he doesn't want to lose the dignity of "Mr. Xiong" in front of the children.

At this moment, he felt like a trapped beast out of the cage, running around happily, and then diving into the hot spring pool, turning the river upside down and splashing water.

Gu Ke shook his head and let her go.

This time, he met Jiang Shun and the others in the Wanshiwu. Xiaoman and the other two served as teachers for a few days, and he couldn't help but have some new ideas.

Perhaps, it's time to compile a set of three-year literacy and five-year introductory textbooks for Dawu's children.

The martial arts classics are just an outline, but if it corresponds to the previous life, it is at least a junior high school level knowledge outline.

And Dawu does not have a set of pre-school + elementary school textbooks and outlines.

There may be some in the major forces, but first of all, there is a focus, such as the Bihaimen's training from a young age, and it will be much easier to learn the Bihai Qingtian method when you grow up.

The Lieyang Sect first selects children who are suitable for practicing the Lieyang Sutra, and those who are not suitable can arrange other martial arts in advance.

This teaching model is quite mature, and the level of talents cultivated is quite excellent.

But... it is too expensive.

This process is similar to a private academy that does not recruit students from outside, and there are not many students.

After selecting talented students, the teacher will soon adopt a private teaching mode, specializing in a few or even one student.

This is a typical elite education, which effectively separates the upper and middle classes.

And what does Gu Ke want most? It is the "nine-year compulsory education" of Dawu martial arts, which benefits the people who occupy the vast majority of the population.

In the past few years, the reputation of Xianshan among the people was not so high, and the number of sincere people was not so high.

Pushing this plan forward is a bit like forcing the growth of seedlings.

The timing is not yet ripe, but it is entirely feasible to set up an "experimental primary school" in the places of the direct lineage, observe the effects and problems from the actual implementation, and accumulate experience.

Time flies, November has passed, and December has arrived.

As the cave is gradually improved, Saranzhu can adjust the climate to a certain extent.

As the saying goes, spring grows, summer grows, autumn harvests, and winter stores, the four seasons cycle is the law of nature, and it is not a bad thing for various plants.

So, the long winter snow in the Yulong Mountains fell into the cave, covering most of the ordinary fields.
