Chapter 60: The Cursed Object of the Sect Disciple
"That's about it." Chu Jingyu nodded simply.
It seems that for him, it is easier to admit than to express.
"It seems that after the fight, you snatched a younger brother from Xu Feifan." Wang Chen looked at Fang Rui.
"I don't object to you following us, but we should be leaving District 24 soon, and the place we are going to is not suitable for outsiders to enter." Fang Rui looked at Chu Jingyu and politely declined.
Taking advantage of the fact that Xu Feifan was frightened by the background he created and would not trouble him for the time being, he planned to take Lan Ruoqiao to Hongye immediately to make some plans of his own in advance.
At this time, it is obviously inappropriate to bring in an outsider like Chu Jingyu.
"I can join you below."
Maybe he let go after talking about it, or maybe he was really eager to learn something from Fang Rui.
Chu Jingyu, who seemed to be very thin-skinned, actually said such a sentence without any hesitation, which was not very sensible.
"Hey, hey, hey! Do you think anyone can join our Hongye gang?" Wang Chen, who seemed to regard himself as a member of the Hongye Gang, couldn't help but complain:
"Don't forget that you are from a sect, and you were with Xu Feifan half an hour ago!"
"If you have different Taoist views, you don't want to work together. I have completely different views from City Master Xu Shao and others. How can we be in the same group? As for the sect issue, the girl is even more worried. I have not belonged to any force yet." Chu.
Jingyu retorted with reason.
"Didn't you say that you are the 63rd generation successor of Liushui Sword Technique?" Wang Chen frowned in confusion.
She actually believed that Chu Jingyu, Xu Feifan and others were not in the same group.
Because at that time, Chu Jingyu was indeed a person who seemed a little out of place in Xu Feifan's entire team.
"Although I learn the flowing water sword technique, I am not a disciple of the flowing water sect. I am a free agent and can join other forces at any time."
Chu Jingyu explained. After explaining, he seemed to realize that he had not explained to the point, and immediately added:
"Liu Shui Sect only accepts female disciples. I am lucky enough to learn Liu Shui Sword Technique because my mother was once the head of Liu Shui Sect and she only has one son. So after her death, the current head of Liu Shui Sect is me.
Auntie, she accepted me as her personal disciple and passed down the flowing water sword technique to me.
But the rules of the Liushui Sect cannot be broken, so although I learn the Liushui Sword, I am not a Liushui person. As long as I don’t stand on the opposite side of the Liushui Sect in the future, I can theoretically join any force."
"That's it! I understand!" Wang Chen nodded knowingly.
'No wonder this boy looks submissive, his words and deeds are worse than those of women, and he has no masculinity at all. It turns out he grew up among women.'
"As long as you understand! Can I join you now?" Chu Jingyu, who didn't know what Wang Chen was thinking, looked at the former expectantly.
"Why are you looking at me? Our Hongye family is not your water sect. Women can't make the decision." Wang Chen pointed at Fang Rui with a suppressed smile.
He indicated that Fang Rui had the final say on this matter.
"Do you want to join the Hongye Gang or the sect behind me?" Fang Rui said:
"If you want to join Hongye, I can make the decision. If you want to join the sect behind me, I can't make the decision."
"Just join Hongye. I mainly want to learn from Brother Fang."
"Then you probably have to change your surname to Shui." As if something suddenly occurred to him, Wang Chen suddenly interrupted with a smile.
"Changing your surname to Shui? What do you mean, girl?" Chu Jingyu looked at Wang Chen in confusion.
"All his disciples have to change their surnames..." Wang Chen pointed at Fang Rui.
"Young lady, you misunderstood!" Chu Jingyu shook his head and explained: "I just want to join the Hongye Gang and work under Brother Fang. I don't want to be a disciple. I already have a master, and I must not be a disciple of anyone else.
.”
"Okay! Boss Fang, shall we accept this little brother?" Wang Chen looked at Fang Rui, his little sister-like attitude made Lan Ruoqiao couldn't help but cover her mouth in laughter.
"Welcome to join." Fang Rui directly extended his hand to Chu Jingyu.
Since Chu Jingyu sincerely wanted to join, he naturally had no reason not to accept it. After all, the former's talent and strength were really good.
"Thank you, brother Fang..." Chu Jingyu raised his hands and wanted to salute, but was interrupted by Wang Chen's reminder.
"It's the gang leader..."
"Yes, yes, thank you, leader!"
"Since you want to learn from me, then you can follow my two apprentices to sell cursed items." Fang Rui quickly assigned the new member Chu Jingyu's whereabouts.
The latter's talent and strength are all right, but his temperament really needs a lot of polishing. Going out to do business with Fire Snake and Thunder Monkey should be a good choice.
"Oh, right!"
Wang Chen seemed to have thought of something again, looked at Chu Jingyu and interjected:
"We are all our own. You don't mind me asking you what your cursed object is, right? I was particularly curious before. You and Fang Rui were so anxious, why didn't you use your cursed ability..."
"My cursed object?" Chu Jingyu was stunned for a moment, and then he generously materialized a waterweed in the palm of his hand.
"This is my cursed object 'Life-Destroying Water Plant'. The curse's ability is similar to that of the sister in red from Xiaochou Pavilion before. It haunts the opponent."
"Why does it look weak and sound even weaker?" Wang Chen frowned slightly in disappointment.
Shouldn’t the cursed objects of sect disciples be very powerful?
"They are indeed quite weak, so I didn't use it when I was competing with Fang... and the gang leader." Chu Jingyu did not deny that his cursed object was indeed very ordinary.
"Actually, when sect disciples first choose cursed objects, they always choose weak ones." Lan Ruoqiao, who knew what Wang Chen was wondering about, explained.
"Ah? Why? Aren't the stronger the cursed object, the better?" Wang Chen looked confused.
"This is indeed the case for cursers, because their main means of combat are cursed objects and curse abilities, but for sect disciples, it is exactly the opposite."
Lan Ruoqiao gave Wang Chen a popular science guide:
"Because the core fighting method of the sect disciples is actually ancient martial arts. If the curse ability of the cursed object is too strong, it is easy for the sect disciples to be distracted by the cursed object, or even overly dependent on the cursed object. This will actually be detrimental to their study of ancient martial arts.
It does more harm than good."
"But if the disciple's self-control is strong enough, or the talent is sufficient, the stronger the cursed object will be, the better, right?" Wang Chen still couldn't understand why the disciples of the sect would choose weaker cursed objects.
"Unless there are special circumstances, no matter how talented a disciple is, he will not choose a cursed object that is too powerful in the early stage." Lan Ruoqiao shook her head.
"why is that?"
"Because the curse ability of the cursed object is too strong, it is not conducive for them to advance to B level." Lan Ruoqiao said the key points.
"Shout!" Wang Chen suddenly shouted out.
Unlike the vast majority of cursers who don't know what the threshold for promotion to B-level is, as a top student at District Three Military Academy, she has early access to this information.
Therefore, she knew very well that the most critical step for a cursed person to advance to B level was to understand the new curse ability and use the new ability to conquer the original ability of the cursed object.
Since the disciples of the sect can use ancient martial arts to ensure their strong combat power in the early stage, they should naturally choose weaker cursed objects to ensure that they can definitely be promoted to level B.
"In addition, there is another point that is also very crucial." Chu Jingyu, a disciple of the sect who already regarded himself as a member of Hongye, added:
"When we learn ancient martial arts, what actually matters is that we start practicing from an early age.
That is, when you are very young, you need to face the problem of how to make the cursed object recognize its owner.
Therefore, generally our elders will choose some cursed objects for us that are suitable for the curse type and are very weak.
In this way, the risks we face when becoming the host of cursed objects can be minimized.
Of course, there is a more important reason."
Speaking of this, Chu Jingyu suddenly looked fascinated and said:
"If you are talented enough and have a unique understanding of ancient martial arts before you reach B level, then you have a chance to create a curse ability that complements your ancient martial arts when you reach B level!
At that time, the cursed object will no longer be useless to you, but will become your best partner!"
"Bullfrog! It makes me want to learn ancient martial arts!" Wang Chen's emotions were moved by Chu Jingyu, and he couldn't help but cast his eyes on the latter.
"Sorry!" Chu Jingyu was so frightened that he quickly raised his hands and explained:
"Miss Wang, although my Flowing Water Sword Technique is passed down from female to male, it cannot be passed on to any girl. Firstly, you are not a member of my Flowing Water Sect, and secondly, the type of curse may not be a water curse, so,
You’d better not think about my flowing water swordsmanship.”
"Hey! If I want to learn, I won't ask you to learn from me!" Wang Chen looked at Fang Rui.
"Can't teach." Fang Rui shook his head.
"Why?!"
"Didn't you hear what Xiao Chu said?" Fang Rui pointed at Chu Jingyu, then said with a suppressed smile:
"In ancient martial arts, you should start practicing from a young age. You are too old..."
"Fang Rui?! I...ah! Ruoqiao, let me go! I want to duel with him!"
