After leaving the Crown Hotel, my father took me to the shore of Lake Glo.

I smiled bitterly. I must have become attached to Lake Gulu. I came here three times in two days, and there were stories every time.

I don't know what will happen this time.

There was no one around, so I thought it was time for my father to tell me the truth.

He sat on a stone and stared at the lake for a long time, and finally looked away and looked at me.

"Son, you will enter the military camp tomorrow."

"Dad, I don't want to go, and I also know that you don't want me to go at all."

The father sighed, "No way, you can go to the military camp tomorrow. Remember, you must go to the wilderness with Wood."

"Go and catch those stowaways?"

"It's not catch, it's release! You have to do everything you can to help those stowaways escape capture. If possible, you have to rescue them."

"Dad, I don't understand something."

"Let me tell you slowly, do you remember the man in the fisherman hat you met on the street today?"

"Of course, if you don't tell me, I will still ask, who is he and what kind of skill he used."

"His surname is Du, his given name is Shen, and his courtesy name is Xinwu. He is considered unique among the martial arts masters I have come into contact with. Like Guo Yusheng of Half-step Bengquan, he is also a martial arts fanatic. He was initiated by the veteran Yu Hu at the age of thirteen. He only

He learned all Yu Laodao's basic styles in one year. Yu Laodao had nothing to teach him anymore, so when he left, he told him that if he wanted to reach a higher level, he needed to remember the four words "see the wise and think of the same". On the thirteenth

When he was 18 years old, he creatively posted signs everywhere asking for a teacher: "If you are not talented, I sincerely seek a teacher. But if you have to compete, the one who can beat the rest will be rewarded with a large sum of money. I will never break my promise."

"Later, a friend wrote to him recommending an unprecedented master. He was very interested when he heard what he did. He came to teach a few days ago and specifically told him to be respectful."

"Du Xinwu was overjoyed and looked forward to this master every day. Suddenly one day, the man finally came, but he was not a master, but a dwarf. This man's surname was Xu. He stood only a head taller than the table.

Du Xinwu couldn't help but look at this dwarf who claimed to be an expert, so he took some silver and wanted to spend it away."

"The dwarf said that he was here to be a master. Didn't you say that as long as he can beat you in a martial arts competition, you would be rewarded with a daughter's fortune?"

"Du Xinwu said to that man that you are short in stature and are as big as a martial arts student. How can you have amazing artistic achievements? Besides, if I take a dwarf as my teacher, won't I be ridiculed by people in the world?"

"The dwarf was furious. I came all the way here to teach my disciples, but I didn't realize that your desire to be a teacher was not only dishonest, but you also judged people based on their appearance and looked down on you. I was so angry that you didn't want me to teach you.

The number cannot be less than one cent!"

"Du Xinwu was young and energetic, but he also turned his face. Although I am young, I am not mentally retarded. Seeing that you are not a famous teacher, but more like a charlatan. You are here to defraud money, so I asked my servants to kick this dwarf out.

"

"Unexpectedly, when Du Xinwu was practicing in the courtyard the next day, the dwarf climbed up the wall at some point, sat on the wall and made irresponsible remarks about his Kung Fu posture. Du Xinwu was furious, you said I can't practice well, then come and try

Try. The dwarf laughed loudly, you haven’t given me a thousand pieces of gold yet, why should I teach you? After seeing your flower display, you asked me to teach you, and I didn’t teach you anymore. What can a smoker do?"

"It turns out that Du Xinwu has a bad habit, which is smoking. I heard that dwarf talk about it and didn't take it seriously."

"Du Xinwu saw that there were no martial arts masters coming to teach, but he wanted to study outside. He studied martial arts without abandoning literature. He went to Yupu Academy to study, read classics and history, and practice calligraphy. Because he had a strong memory and was very diligent, he won the favor of his teachers.

They thought highly of him, so they asked him to go to Lizhou to take the imperial examination. Unexpectedly, Du Xinwu got into the top ten. After that, everyone thought that Du Xinwu was going to become an official, but they didn't expect that this guy was obsessed with hunting tigers.

Just like you."

"Du Xinwu practiced the tiger fork and went hunting for the tiger with great interest. He didn't catch the tiger, but he hunted a wild boar. Du Xinwu wanted to carry the wild boar back, but found that he was unable to do it. He thought so hard that what the dwarf said back then, a wild boar.

What kind of situation can a smoker become? I immediately regretted it and made up my mind to quit smoking. It is extremely difficult to quit smoking. Since the Opium War, how many people have become addicted to smoking. Of course they know the harm, but they are addicted to smoking.

The attack is so painful that it feels like being in the Abi Hell, which can only be relieved by taking another drug. For this reason, how many people have gone bankrupt and sold their children and daughters, which is really deplorable."

"But it's not easy to quit smoking. There is no one in the world who can do it. But Du Xinwu gritted his teeth and quit this evil. In an instant, everyone in the world could not stop smoking.

All of them have their thumbs up."

"Du Xinwu quit smoking and drugs, but he also fell seriously ill and his health deteriorated."

"After quitting, he became seriously ill, and his health continued to deteriorate. Thinking that his teacher, Yu Hu Lao Tao, was a Taoist, he found his teacher to regulate his body. After Yu Lao Tao used Taoist methods to adjust his body, he told him that he could go to Mount Emei, Sichuan.

, Master Xu, who is looking for the gate of nature, if he can be guided by him, he will be able to achieve great success in his art."

"Du Xinwu came to the Natural Gate of Mount Emei and saw Master Xu. He was stunned. Master Xu was actually the dwarf back then."

He had no vision and no knowledge of superiors, so he kicked Du Xinwu over and finally drove him out of Emei."

"Du Xinwu returned to Yu Laodao. Only then did Yu Laodao know the past events, but he wrote a letter and asked Du Xinwu to return to Emei. He met Xu Aizi again and presented Yu Laodao's letter, but Xu Aizi didn't even read it.

Tear him to pieces and drive Du Xinwu down to Emei again."

"Du Xinwu encountered setbacks one after another and became discouraged. At this time, a farmer and his wife passed by. The woman was angry with her man and cursed, but the farmer smiled and endured. In the end, the woman lost her temper, and the couple returned home together.

This made Du Xinwu wake up suddenly, so he went to Emei three times. This time he was determined, no matter whether Xu Xiaozi punched or kicked him, he would not leave."

"Xu Aizi still refused to accept him as his disciple, so Du Xinwu followed Xu Aizi's example when he was practicing, riding on the wall and gesticulating about Xu Aizi's kung fu. Xu Aizi was furious and cursed: If you have the ability,

, then come down and give it a try. If you lose, I will worship you as my teacher."

"Du Xinwu was waiting for these words. He immediately jumped off the wall and competed. If you lose, I will accept you as my teacher. He punched Xu Aizi. Xu Aizi ducked sideways and punched Du Xinwu back with a nosebleed.

Changliu, Du Xinwu said with a smile on his face that you won and I lost. As agreed, I will worship you as my master. After saying this, he knelt down and kowtowed, saying that the master is above him. The disciple sincerely worshiped the master and asked the master to record the door wall. "

"Then Xu Aizhi realized that he had been deceived. He was so angry that his beard stood up and Hu Laogao burst into laughter. He finally accepted Du Xinwu. From then on, Xu Aizi taught Du Xinwu all the natural skills."

"This short guy Xu is an unparalleled expert. He has been practicing all kinds of soft and hard kung fu since he was a child, including somersaults, walking on ropes, etc. He is familiar with everything from internal and external, northern and southern sects. Because of his short stature and appearance,

Ugliness is often not valued by others, and it is not just Du Xinwu. Xu Aizi was dissatisfied, so he lived in seclusion in the mountains and rivers, devoted himself to the study of martial arts. Based on what he learned, he devoted himself to studying the martial arts of various sects, and found a unique way to integrate the pure skills of each sect.

He grew up in one furnace and created a unique martial arts boxing technique, which he named himself Natural Gate."

"The basic kung fu skills of the Natural Gate include the inner ring hand, the crow's step, and the deadly kick. Du Xinwu once saw Xu Xiaozi practicing the crow's step on a big pot. He saw his feet on the edge of the pot, making perfect turns, which was very impressive.

Amazed.”

"Later, Du Xinwu went a step further based on the skills taught by Xu Aizi, simplifying the complex ones, and organized the natural martial arts into a superior internal martial arts that combines broad skills with contracting, and contracting with precision. It is actually the essence of martial arts.

.After practicing to a certain level, there is no set pattern at all, the steps change easily, and the entire body posture, footwork, and hand gestures are completely free and easy, making the natural martial arts style unique."

"After learning the skills, Du Xinwu worked as a bodyguard, a guard in the Forbidden City, and even went to the Sichuan-Guizhou border to kill the gangster Li Boss who ran a black shop, and rescued several women. His reputation as a knight-errant spread far and wide."

"People thought he was starting a sect, but they didn't want him to quit his post as a guard in the imperial city and study hard behind closed doors. Later, after being introduced by Song Dezun, he took the Japanese ship Kobe Maru in Shanghai and traveled east to Japan, crossing the sea to study. He was admitted to Tokyo

Agricultural major at Imperial University, he had a deep friendship with Song Dezun, Wu Yuzhang and other revolutionaries, and was deeply influenced by them. It is said that when Lafayette sent people to Japan to assassinate Sun Xing and Song Dezun, it was Du Xinwu who cooked them."

"When Annie and I escaped from China and traveled to Japan, we had a chance encounter with Du Xinwu. At that time, Saito was the arrogant Saito who challenged Chinese people in Japan to fight in Hibiya Park in Tokyo. He was extremely arrogant. You were so young at that time

We were still young, and our family was on the run, so we had to endure our anger. Here, we saw someone jump onto the ring. After just a few glances, the man grabbed Saito's belt, lifted him up, and threw him off the ring. Later.

, I met Du Xinwu and competed with him in martial arts."

"Today, I saw that his actions in arresting Saito were exactly the same as before, so I concluded that he was Du Xinwu. I didn't know why he came to Australia, so I simply followed him."

"After meeting and talking, I found out that Du Xinwu has joined the Revolutionary Party. Naturally, he needs money to fight for the revolution. Du Xinwu's trip is to escort a group of craftsmen to Australia. Since the discovery of gold mines in Australia, people from all over the world have come to dig for gold. The Chinese

There are also many people from Hong Kong, but they are all doing the hard work of mining. There are probably countless Chinese who have died of exhaustion and illness, but none of them have made a fortune."

I asked: "Dad, where are these craftsmen going to Australia?"

My father looked at me for a long time and finally said, "You want to grow vegetables at our house?"

I was confused, "Artisans grow vegetables? Is it wrong?"

The father smiled bitterly, "Do you remember that I dug out a piece of green ore from our vegetable field a few days ago? After I asked someone to identify it, I found out that it was rare turquoise. If it can be processed into jade, it can be

There is a lot of income.”

I said happily: "Dad, you mean our family is going to get rich?"

The father shook his head and said seriously: "I want to give this money to the revolutionaries!"

My heart was pounding and I looked at my father, "Dad, have you also joined the Revolutionary Party?"

The father shook his head, "No, but you and I have always been Chinese. Mr. Lin, who sold cigarettes in the past, once said that the country of Juli is about life and death. How can we avoid it because of blessings and misfortunes? If these jade articles can help the country more

, is also good.”

I nodded, "Dad, I understand."

My father grabbed my hand and said, "I didn't want to tell you this at first. It was an emergency, so I asked you to join the army. You have to keep this secret. No one can tell it." After a pause, he continued: "Including Anne!

"

I was shocked again, and realized that the matter was serious. My father looked at me with doubtful eyes and sighed, "It's unclear whether this matter is a blessing or a curse, so we shouldn't let Annie worry."

I made up my mind and finally agreed to my father.

Father stood up and patted my shoulder, "Okay, let's go find Annie."

Annie and Piyou bought me many daily necessities, enthusiastically took us back home, and even arranged dinner.

The dinner was extremely sumptuous, and the table was full. Piyou knew that his father was Chinese, so he asked his father to hire a chef from a nearby Chinese restaurant to cook.

Piyou also ran out and brought back a jar of Chinese liquor. After opening the jar, the aroma of the wine filled his nostrils, and his father felt very happy.

At this time, the old father walked in and said, "Miss, Mr. Stantil is here." I felt happy, why did Qian Yan come over so late?

Piyou frowned, "Why did he come here?" and then walked out.

Annie looked at Piyou with a smile and said to me: "Tell mom, how did you deceive this little beauty?"
