Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 171 Chapter 171 Zhuge Liang's ancestral motto: Health is the capital, and the one who lives longer is the winner
"Stay, you've made a lot of progress."

He Songling exclaimed as he looked at Lu Ci who had just finished his work.

"Well, you know what. It's all thanks to me following you all the way." Lu Ci was not polite at all. After all, this was the joint achievement of both of them. Saying it without being proud also showed that it was not in vain that he called He Songling his master all the way.

"I'm still a little behind my brother now, but not that far behind. I feel like I can beat him if I try harder."

"Really?" He Songling raised his eyebrows. It was true that Lu Ci had made progress, but he didn't believe that Lu Ren hadn't made any progress at the same time and was just standing there waiting for Lu Ci to catch up. If that happened, all the effort he put into teaching Lu Ren would be in vain.

"Call your brother over here, and I'll find out about his true situation for you."

"Really?" Lu Ci's eyes lit up. Although he had a good relationship with his brother, Lu Ci still liked to see his brother, who always looked down on him, being beaten.

Lu Ci turned around and went out to call his brother, while He Songling waved his hand and sent out five Qi forces to free and awaken the five fellow apprentices.

"Oh..."

Junior Brother Zhuge covered his head and stood up, cursing: "That grandson of Lu Ci, he was really cruel."

What does it mean that if you keep company with a red person, you will be red. If you keep company with a black person, you will be black. Based on the Zhuge family's family education and the style of the Sanyi Sect, this Zhuge Junior Brother, even in the original novel, when the Sanyi disciples had their first battle with Wu Gensheng, he couldn't say a single swear word. The best he could do was to call him a "bastard".

Later on, for the sake of his brother's safety, he didn't dare to kill him. Otherwise, Wu Gensheng, who didn't dare to reveal his methods in front of the righteous masters, would be a cripple if not dead.

Now, this Junior Brother Zhuge has a foul mouth and his style is developing directly in the direction of Zhang Muzhi. It can be seen that these two bandits, He Songling and Zhang Mazi, are really useless and have corrupted all the good kids.

But He Songling did not regret it. In this era, little white flowers could not survive, and those who could live longer were those with evil hands and hearts.

"If you are new, practice more. In a life-and-death fight, you can't be defeated and then blame your opponent for taking your life. Do you really expect our old master to seek justice for you? No matter how much justice he seeks, your life will not be brought back."

He Songling shook his finger and waved to Junior Brother Zhuge: "Xiao Zhu, come here."

"Senior brother, my last name is Zhuge." Junior brother Zhuge walked over with a dark face.

"I know your last name is Zhuge, but do you think it sounds good if I call you Little Zhuge? It sounds like a nickname. Wouldn't that make you look like Lao Bai, one of the bald guy's subordinates?" He Songling said with a smile, "If I call you that, he will feel that you are insulting him, and you will also feel that he is insulting you. Why bother?"

"That's true." The Zhuge family had been used to these nicknames such as "Little Zhuge", "Rival of Wolong", and "Living Kongming" for more than a thousand years. But they were absolutely unwilling to be called such names.

"What Lu Cigang said is very right. If you study two subjects at the same time and do well in the future, you may become a talent who can master both Qimen and Nisheng. I am very optimistic about you."

He Songling patted Junior Brother Zhuge on the shoulder with an encouraging look on his face, and Junior Brother Zhuge was also flattered and kept saying "I don't deserve it".

As a result, He Songling's next sentence made him lose his defense: "It's been so long, what's your name?" "Uh..."

Not to mention Junior Brother Zhuge, even the four people over there had a grim look on their faces.

Wow, after more than a month of military training, you still don’t know what our names are?

"Of course. I haven't been in the sect for these years, so I really don't know what land the prison has taken. As for the military training before, it's meaningless to get close to you too early. It will make you less respectful. Now, report your names."

He Songling pointed at the junior fellow who was about to break through the second level and said, "Zhao Lun, forget about the other four. I was still in the sect when you came here. Why are you so gloomy? How could I not recognize you? If you have any objections, return the small gifts and money I brought you when I went down the mountain all those years ago."

"I dare not, I am wrong, I am wrong." If the relationship is broken, it is broken. Why are you still bringing things back? Zhao Lun quickly shrank his head when he heard this, and retreated behind everyone with an innocent look on his face. "Brother He, you know me. For us junior brothers, besides Master, you are the one we respect the most in the sect."

"Well, very good. I'll tell Uncle Si Chong and Senior Brother about what you said later." He Songling nodded, and then, ignoring Zhao Lun's gloomy face, he turned around and asked Junior Brother Zhuge: "Now, what's your name?"

"Brother, my name is Zhuge Yuan, and I am from the Wuhou faction..."

"Okay, there's no need to mention more. I can't remember them all. I'll accompany you to the Zhuge family someday if I have the chance. Last time I went to Sichuan, I only went to the Tang Sect and didn't visit your family because I didn't know them. It was really disrespectful."

He Songling said "I'm sorry", but his face didn't show any "disrespect" at all. He opened his mouth and gave instructions: "I heard that your Wuhou sect is different from ordinary sects. In addition to the strange magic, you need to build a foundation in advance and learn some hard skills such as oil hammer pouring on the top of the head and iron ruler shaving the ribs."

"That's what I heard." Zhuge Yuan said bitterly, "I don't know what it is, but the rules passed down by the elders in the sect require me to practice it, so I just practice it. When I was only four years old, my father forced me to practice this. Fortunately, my master went to Sichuan and took me away, otherwise my suffering would have continued. I didn't expect..."

Zhuge Yuan couldn't continue talking here, and stole a glance at He Songling. The meaning was very clear, I thought I could enter the Sanyi Sect and be liberated, but I didn't expect to fall into the hands of your senior brother He in the Sanyi Sect, which was worse than practicing those hard qigong at home.

"You know nothing. Haven't you heard about your ancestor's deeds? If he was in better health, he would have used the Seven Star Lamp to prolong his life. But he would have failed to prolong his life, leading to the downfall of the Han Dynasty?"

He Songling slapped Zhuge Yuan on the top of his head with his backhand: "So your Zhuge family has set up family mottos, the first one is to keep fit. Only those who have a good body and live long are called artists... Uh, winners, you know, if the old prime minister can live to be 120 years old, where do you think the Three Kingdoms will end up?"

"Ah?" Zhuge Yuan didn't know whether he was confused by He Songling's words or the slap in the face, his eyes were blank: "Is that so?"

"Of course!" He Songling slapped him on the back of the head again, "You youngsters, you don't understand the wisdom of your predecessors, you just complain about being tired, how can you grow up?"

As he spoke, he slapped Zhuge Yuan again, causing him to retreat aside with his head in his hands, feeling aggrieved.

The remaining three junior brothers saw this and reported their names tremblingly. He Songling did not do anything to them, which made the three secretly feel lucky.

The brothers chatted about cultivation for a while, and then they heard a call from not far away: "Brother He!"
