Chapter 2: The old man in the martial arts hall

Tiger Roar Hall.

The three characters on the door plaque have been mottled, and the golden characters fade and become old under the erosion of the years.

This is a martial arts hall located on Xingyang Road.

When Xingyang Lane comes out, Xingyang Road is Xingyang Road. Tang Ye has passed by outside the Tiger Roar Hall many times, but has never been in.

There are many martial arts halls in Shencheng, most of which are concentrated on Feixia Road, with dozens of them arranged on both sides, which are extremely prosperous. Many martial arts halls represent many sects. Tongbeiquan, Yongmu, Baihemen, Eagle Claw Gate, etc., with many names, and their martial arts routines taught differently, and they also have strict sect rules.

It is not a simple matter to become a disciple and learn martial arts. It does not mean that you need qualifications, roots, etc. The most important premise is that you must have tuition fees.

Tuition fees are not cheap. It is said that if you get a red envelope for a disciple, you will get a silver dollar. After you get started, you will have to spend a few silver dollars a month, which is much more expensive than entering school.

Since he was a child, he wanted to learn martial arts. The reason is very simple. If he knows martial arts, he will not be beaten or bullied. But he is so poor that he can afford to learn it?

So the old man asked him to become a disciple. He hesitated for a moment and quickly agreed and was taken to the Tiger Roar Hall.

The old man's surname is Yang, and his name is "Sanshou". He is thin, has a yellow skin, has little flesh on his cheeks, and his eyes are deep and concave. He looks horizontally and vertically, but he doesn't look like he is good at martial arts.

Tang Ye thought that there was another master in the Tiger Roar Hall, but when he saw the person in the hall, he was stunned. The person in the hall was called "Wu Yishou", and he was even more withered, thin, completely skinny, and coughed all the time. Tang Ye was worried that he would accidentally cough and die. Wu Yishou even put on a crutch, and he was breathing three times, a typical twilight year.

Is this a martial arts school or a nursing home?

Tang Ye muttered in his heart.

Yang Sanshou looked very excited: "Senior Brother, this young man is named Tang Ye, and he is the disciple I just found. Now, our Tiger Roar Hall inheritance is hopeful."

Wu looked at Tang Ye up and down with his hands, his eyes were infiltrating, and then walked forward and stretched out his skinny hand to touch it.

It's exactly the same as Yang Sanshu's previous actions.

Tang Ye was furrowed all over his body after being touched.

After touching, Wu Yishou nodded slightly: "The bones are okay, the qi and blood are good, maybe they can really stand it."

Yang Sanshou smiled and said that Tang Ye was seriously injured yesterday and recovered as soon as he was once again overnight.

After listening, Wu Yishou's eyes looked at Tang Ye brighter.

Tang Ye gritted his teeth and asked, "Master, I am the only disciple in the martial arts school?"

"No, you still have two senior brothers."

This number is indeed very small, but it is better than nothing. If only Tang Ye had one, he would really doubt where the Tiger Roar Hall came from.

But when he saw two senior brothers, Tang Ye felt that he had really become the wrong teacher and entered the wrong sect.

Both senior brothers are both young and strong, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and are quite burly. But after careful observation, their eyes were dull and their mouths were tilted, and the corners of their mouths were crooked from time to time. Their hands were trembling and trembling as like leaves in the cold wind.

"them?"

Tang Ye couldn't stand it anymore.

Yang Sanshou sighed: "I won't hide it from you. This sect's martial arts are a bit strong. The first practice is very fast, but when you practice it to a certain extent, it will cause backlash. If your body can't bear it, it will turn into this. To be honest, they have already calculated this way."

Tang Ye swallowed: "That's not good?"

"All dead."

Yang Sanshou looked at him and said slowly: "My Tiger Roar Hall was once prosperous. The martial arts hall was originally opened on Feixia Road, with nearly a hundred apprentices in the door. But later, the master Wu Liushou, that is, my master suddenly died. Then several fellow disciples either grew old overnight or had a stroke and paralyzed..."

Speaking of this, the old man's eyes were blurred and tears flashed. Obviously, those sad past events were engraved in his heart and would never be forgotten: "Later I learned that there was something wrong with this martial arts."

“What’s the problem?”

Tang Ye asked.

Yang Sanshou replied: "This martial arts is called "Santong Tiger", which is an extremely fierce and tough move in the Xingyiquan school. When Wu Liushou entered Shencheng with bare hands, he lost more than ten famous masters in a row with this skill, opened up a situation and laid the foundation for the Tiger Roar Pavilion. At that time, he was only twenty-five years old and was the youngest opening owner in Shencheng history."

"So how old was he when he died?"

"forty."

After hearing the answer, Tang Ye stopped talking.

Yang Sanshou glanced at him: "As far as I know, the problem with this martial arts is that it has overbearing and sharp characteristics, and it requires very high physical conditions for practitioners..."

Tang Ye couldn't help asking again: "How high should it be?"

Yang Sanshu shook his head: "I don't know how high it needs to be, but obviously Master Wu does not match it, and our first-generation disciples do not match it, and the new disciples he recruited later also do not match it. Now the Tiger Roar Hall has fallen and cannot continue to gain a foothold in Feixia Road, so he has to move here. Moreover, the saying that if you don't die if you don't die, it's been widely circulated in the martial arts community in Shencheng, and no one dares to come and apprentice to his master."

Tang Ye finally understood why the other party took the initiative to collect himself and didn't have to pay the tuition fee. It turned out to be like this: "Master Yang, why do you want to tell me this? Are you afraid that I will be scared away after hearing it?"

Yang San thrust his back and looked solemn: "I am a martial arts practitioner, not a despicable person who cheats. I have said everything I should say. If you don't want to get started, I will never force you."

Looking at his wrinkled face, Tang Aoxin was moved and suddenly asked, "I'm very hungry. Do I have food to eat in the restaurant now?"

Yang Sanshou smiled: "Of course, not only food, but also meat."

Although the Tiger Roar Hall has failed, it has accumulated some wealth, and ensuring food and accommodation is also the most powerful condition for absorbing new disciples. Otherwise, who would be willing to learn it? It is really terrible to learn martial arts and become useless, or even die.

The few disciples of the new generation were all found by Yang Sanshou, who specialized in searching for them in slums and choosing strong people. They were basically orphans and used as hardworking materials. Unfortunately, these disciples are careless and look so timid, but they are actually difficult to create. They can't practice for a long time and become useless people.

Seeing that the inheritance was about to be cut off, and the Hu Xiao Pavilion was about to close, Yang Sanzhao was anxious. What might he do? He had to continue searching in various slums. Yesterday, when he passed by Xingyang Lane, he happened to witness Tang Ye being beaten by the people from the Evil Wolf Gang.

Yang Sanshou has seen such things for a long time, and he has been used to it. He left after watching it for a while. But today he got up and went out. He accidentally heard that Tang Ye was not dead and was still ready. He couldn't help but feel moved and came to him quickly. He felt inexplicably that Tang Ye, a physique with an amazing recovery speed, might be able to practice "Three Tong Tiger". The requirements are not high. As long as he can be like the few brothers of his seniors, it would be enough to last ten or eight years before he fell down. In that case, the Tiger Roar Hall could also regain its prestige.

When the meal was served, Yang Sanshou saw Tang Ye and then he pulled a large bowl of rice into his stomach. He had not chewed a piece of vegetable yet. In a blink of an eye, Tang Ye was about to make the third bowl of rice, and a plate of meat was missing. Following this momentum, this pot of rice and three plates of dishes was not enough for this kid to eat alone.

Yang Sanshu has seen many people and has seen many fierce eating habits, but compared with Tang Ye, those people are all wise men. He immediately became anxious and quickly opened his throat and shouted: "Lao Wu, Lao Wu, come and have dinner!"

After a while, someone came in from outside the door. Tang Ye looked up and couldn't help but be stunned, even forgot to eat the meat.

Because this person did not come in, he crawled in, put his hands on the ground, his hair disheveled, and looked like a dog.
