Advance the future and become a martial saint on earth!

Chapter 16: A real man has already taken up the knife, why bother looking back and forth, he should take the slave's body and son as his bond, and fight for the vastness of the sky and the sea!
Early in the morning.

The sky is bright.

Duan Chenzhou, who had developed good habits, held the sword with one arm and performed a set of exercises.

It made the whole body's blood boil, and even a thin layer of "membrane" grew on the surface of the skin, visible outside, as if wearing a "fairy robe".

"This boy"

"I'm a little uncomfortable with the sudden disruption of time."

He sat on a stool with a large carriage, wearing a black suit with exquisite sewing skills, and he glanced at the door from time to time.

The murmured words had just fallen.

next moment,
The copper and iron door was pushed open.

"Hmm? It seems you haven't slacked off yet."

"This is the best swordsman I have ever seen. I hope he won't be worn down by the vicissitudes of life. Otherwise, it will be a pity."

Seeing the familiar figure, Duan Chenzhou nodded.

He had nothing to hope for in his life. Living in this quiet little courtyard and practicing martial arts all day was just a habit he had developed over decades.

It is quite interesting to see a young man making obvious progress in swordplay practice every day, and to give him some advice from time to time right under my nose.

"Master Duan, I'm getting excited."

"Well, light the stove first, then do it."

"and many more."

"What did you say?"

When Ji Xiu held a wooden sword, he walked in respectfully and spoke.

At first Duan Chenzhou didn't care much. He was just about to give orders according to inertia, but the next moment.

His eyes narrowed, and he slammed the table and stood up, his eyes like sharp swords, looking up at Ji Xiu.

When Duan Chenzhou discovered that this kid's muscles seemed to have a force that was constantly flowing through his body, increasing his blood and sharpening his muscles and bones, he immediately revealed the secret:
"Strength comes from the tendons, just like taking chestnuts from fire!"

"The first step in strengthening the tendons is to control the strength."

"You have made some progress in swordsmanship. Did you get the 'sword power' yesterday?"

"Good boy."

His eyes lit up, his black suit flashed, he raised one arm, pinched Ji Xiu's muscles up and down, and found that it was indeed good, so he exclaimed in amazement:
"If you really have mastered the martial arts, then yes, yes."

"In half a month, the Tianhe Sword has achieved minor success, and I have become a martial artist."

"Such progress is not surprising for those noble families and large clans who have laid a solid foundation since childhood."

"But you are a poor boy, born as a horse slave, and you have managed to cultivate to this level by taking some time out of your busy schedule."

"If this gets out, not to mention the faraway places, the famous 'three major gangs and four major halls' in Anning County, 500 miles away, and the so-called true disciples therein will probably find a piece of tofu and hit themselves to death."

Pace back and forth twice.

Duan Chenzhou looked at Ji Xiu and found that he did not have the temperament of someone who becomes arrogant after becoming a warrior.

Instead, you have to carry firewood and light the stove, and be able to pick up and put down.

For a moment, his eyes sparkled and he couldn't help but whisper, feeling that it was even more rare and precious:
"He has mastered the skills and is still so stable. It's hard to believe that he is from a poor family."

"In ancient times, there were saintly kings who started out as dog walkers in the streets, and great emperors who started out as beggars, eating tree bark to survive, before they had a pair of iron fists and crushed all the heretics."

"It is recorded in the history of martial arts that the more humble one starts from, the more resilient one is, the more likely one will rise to the top and even be given a title, and the greater their future, fortune and luck will be!"

"If I had seen this kid twenty years earlier, I would have snatched him away even if I had to rob him. What a pity."

His eyes dimmed for a moment, then he calmed down and shouted at Ji Xiu:

"Ji Jiazi, you don't have to work today. Breaking into the martial arts class is a great joy for you. Now, let's talk about your future."

"Come here and sit down."

Duan Chenzhou slapped the stone table and said to Ji Xiu earnestly:
"Now that you have entered the game, you should consider your future."

"The first step in strengthening the tendons is to control the strength. This depends on practice and understanding. Some people are too stupid to learn it in their entire lives. This is normal."

“But after this difficult period,

"How do we nourish the blood and strengthen the tendons?"

"Then you have to invest a lot of money, eat, and refine. Only by spending a lot of money can you see the results."

"I see that after you became a warrior, you are neither arrogant nor impatient, and you can still maintain a normal mind."

"This is good."

"Many people, after achieving a little success, become arrogant and short-sighted. Such people are not worthy of their own weight and cannot go far."

"But you are different." "You have fallen behind a lot since you were a child. When I first saw you, you were skinny as a skeleton."

"It's a little better now, but it's still far behind the muscular warriors who eat meat every day and have a lot of food."

"So, what you need to do is to catch up quickly, go to the Lin residence to get your 'slave contract', and go to the government office to change your nationality and save your life."

"When you are free, you can find a place to make a living, a boxing gym, or a shop, and use your skills to exchange for money. From the beginning as a 'worker', to a 'customer', to yourself, in one word, that's the truth!"

Duan Chenzhou's argument was clear and each sentence was insightful, and he explained clearly the path that Ji Xiu would take in the future.

His eyes lit up, he stood up, bowed his head, and saluted:
"Yes, Master Duan, I am here to tell you the good news. After that, I will go to the Lin residence to get the slave contract and change my status to a slave!"

"only."

Ji Xiu thought of what happened yesterday, his heart sank, and he hesitated:

"I am penniless now, so I want to ask my employer for my bonded servant and redeem myself at the government office. Is that right?"

Snapped!
A big hand slapped his shoulder, and Duan Chenzhou frowned suddenly:

"I told you to keep your heart, not to look ahead and behind!"

"At the age of sixteen, what are you afraid of?"

"When I was your age, my knife would have been stained red!"

"It's written in black and white in the government office that you can change to a military officer if you are admitted to the rank of rank. How can a warrior like you be someone's slave?"

"Be bolder. If you don't work hard and try your best, how will others know what you are capable of?!"

"If you hesitate and lack ambition all your life, you will never become a 'Qigong master' in your lifetime!"

He clenched his fingers with one arm and grabbed Ji Xiu's shoulder blade hard, which made him shudder. All the fatigue from practicing sword skills all night was swept away in an instant.

in an instant,
Ji Xiu couldn't help but get angry.

Yes.

He is already a warrior and has reached a high rank. It would be a joke if he became a slave!
And then again.

If the Lin residence was peaceful, he could spend two days honing his sword skills and strengthening his foundation in the stable, but...
Someone is so aggressive, as if demanding your life!
If the beating yesterday was real.

If I go back today, I’m afraid I’ll be severely punished!
In this embarrassing situation.

To endure is nothing more than to receive two more whips!

"Master Duan, I understand!"

"Come back in the evening, and I'll light the stove and cook for you!"

With his blood boiling, Ji Xiu took a deep breath, and without stopping, he walked as fast as the wind, and then he fell into the vast fog!

Duan Chenzhou's frown didn't relax until the figure faded away.

So he sat back on the mat, his face calm, and drank hot tea.

Half a quarter of an hour passed.

Lu Yu, dressed in brocade clothes and with a look of joy that could not be concealed, knocked on the door, stepped in impatiently, and said with a smile:
"Master Duan, I..."

"Has the bone-tempering technique in the book been practiced yet?"

Duan Chenzhou glanced sideways and then drank his tea calmly.

Lu Yu was stunned, then he started laughing:

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from your pair of sharp eyes."

"Yes, I have succeeded in hardening my bones today, all thanks to Master Duan's guidance!"

"I"

He didn't finish his sentence.

Then he saw the one-armed warrior in black clothes knocking on the stone table three times, interrupting his announcement, and said leisurely:

"Xiaoyu, what a coincidence."

"I have something I want you to do."

Looking towards the direction of 'Lin's Residence' where Ji Xiu was going.

Duan Chenzhou's eyes are deep.

And the other side.
In front of Lin’s house, servants were sweeping fallen leaves.

Ji Xiu stepped into the house and headed straight for the stable.

However, from a distance, he could see the old man Yao and his apprentice bending over, as well as.
A middle-aged man in a blue shirt with a stern face, holding a whip, followed by a group of bodyguards, came in an aggressive manner and behaved in a rude manner.

Suddenly, he felt a chill in his heart.

Rain is coming
The wind is all over the building!
