Hua Bushi smiled and said: "Among all your senior brothers, Zhu Hong is the worst in Qinggong. What's so surprising about you being better than him?"
"But she is practicing really hard!" The little girl pouted, as if she was about to cry, but suddenly she raised her eyes and saw Yang Jiangyi standing next to Hua Bushi, and said: "This sister is so beautiful.
Could it be that she is the master’s wife?”
Hua Bushi's face turned red and he said, "Ling'er, don't talk nonsense! She is Miss Yang Jiangyi from the Huashan Sect."
But Ling'er said with a "hehe" smile: "Young Master has never brought outsiders here!"
Hua Bushi looked embarrassed and said to Yang Jiangyi: "This little girl's name is Bai Yiling. She is my disciple. She is too young and can speak freely. Please don't take offense to Miss Yang."
Disciple of Hua Bushi?
Yang Jiangyi was quite surprised. When the little girl named Ling'er jumped out of the courtyard gate just now, Yang Jiangyi could see that she had a very good foundation in Qinggong and her body movements were flexible. She obviously had good martial arts skills.
.And how could Young Master Hua, who has no strength in his hands and can even walk clumsily, be her master? If this little girl and Hua Bushi were to take action, the Young Master would probably fall down just by looking at each other.
Seeing that Yang Jiangyi had not spoken, Hua Bushi said: "Miss Yang, this is not the place to talk. Let's go into the courtyard." He turned to the little girl and told the little girl: "Ling'er, go to the back and ask your senior brothers to come with you.
Come to the living room!"
The living room is very small.
There were two rows of wooden chairs in the center of the room, with a square table above them and nothing on the four walls.
Yang Jiangyi sat on a chair and looked at this room without any decoration curiously. She thought that the living room of a Jianghu gang shouldn't be so shabby.
Hua Bushi had a complacent expression, as if he were a king sitting in a magnificent palace entertaining visiting envoys from neighboring countries.
Ling'er had four senior brothers, and soon they walked into the living room one by one to greet Hua Bushi. These people were all very young, and they looked less than twenty years old. What was different from Bai Yiling was that these four
The senior brother showed great respect for Hua Bushi, and there was even a bit of awe in his eyes. This kind of awe was very familiar to Yang Jiangyi, and it was the most typical attitude of disciples towards their mentors in famous sects.
Hua Bushi introduced these people to Yang Jiangyi one by one.
Senior brother Yu Qianli is tall and has a somewhat bookish temperament. He is wearing a white gown and looks quite chic and elegant.
The strong man with a square face and big ears is the second senior brother, named Zhu Hong. This man's hands and feet are thick, and the veins on his arms are protruding, but his face is honest and honest.
Third senior brother Ximen Tong is extremely thin, dressed in black, and has a face as beautiful as jade. If he had his hair tied up in a bun and put on red makeup, he would surely be a peerless beauty.
The fourth senior brother Li Hu is a fierce man, with messy hair and an expressionless face. No one else came here with weapons, only he has an unsheathed long sword on his waist. Yang Jiangyi is practicing swordsmanship.
Naturally, I took a second look at the sword. I saw that the hilt and guard of the sword were normal, but the blade was much wider than an ordinary long sword, but it was extremely thin, and the sharp edges were swaying with light, showing that
It's an unusual weapon.
From the behavior and actions of these people, Yang Jiangyi could tell that none of them were mediocre in martial arts. This was not surprising, thinking that since Hua Bushi was the young master of the Evil Dog Sect, his subordinates would naturally be able to do it.
They are carefully selected people.
What makes Yang Jiangyi a little puzzled is that although these people are all powerful, the auras they exude are different. Generally, brothers in the same sect, because they inherit the same lineage of martial arts, practice the same martial arts.
Even if there is a slight difference in the inner strength and mental methods, they will not be too far apart. Therefore, the auras of disciples from famous sects will be similar, and the more advanced the qigong is practiced, even the perception of temperament will be similar.
This is why some experienced martial arts people can often tell at a glance which sect someone comes from.
However, the auras exuded by these brothers are completely different from each other. It is obvious that the internal skills they practice are not inherited from the same origin.
Yang Jiangyi was relieved immediately. This Evil Dog Sect is a Jianghu gang, not an authentic martial arts sect. Most of these people brought their skills to join, and they already had good kung fu before joining the Evil Dog Sect. And this
Hua Bushi is an extremely incompetent and evil young master, so how can he really teach them internal skills? The so-called master and disciple must be that this young master Hua relied on his power to forcefully accept these people under his disciples, shouting at them all the time.
Just come out and show off.
Thinking of this, Hua Bushi's image in Yang Jiangyi's eyes became even more unbearable!
But he saw that Hua Bushi was soothing to these "brothers" and pretending to tell them to practice hard. He actually acted out the majesty of the famous master so vividly that Yang Jiangyi, who was sitting next to him, almost felt nauseous!
Not long after, Hua Bushi ordered his "disciples" to retreat, and only he and Yang Jiangyi were left in the living room.
"Miss Yang, you are not very talented. I have a suggestion. I wonder if you would like to hear it?" Hua Bushi said.
Yang Jiangyi said angrily: "If you want to say it, just say it!"
Hua Bushi coughed lightly and said: "Xiao Ke wants Miss Yang to stay in my 'evil dog's courtyard' for three days. After three days, the girl can go and take care of herself. I will never force her to stay here again, and I will pay you
Five hundred taels of silver are engraved on it as compensation for the girl."
"Oh?" Yang Jiangyi was stunned after hearing this, wondering what the young master was up to.
Hua Bushi said: "In these three days, you only need to practice one martial art according to my method, which is the 'Sword Technique of Subduing Demons with Power'. Apart from practicing swordsmanship, I will never force the girl to do anything else, but she doesn't know
What do you think, Miss Yang?"
Yang Jiangyi lowered his head and groaned, speechless.
Hua Bushi added: "The 'Powerful Sword Technique of Subduing Demons' was once one of the seventy-two unique skills of the Shaolin Temple. Although the sword manual spread out is slightly incomplete, it is also a rare authentic Zen swordsmanship. Practice it."
I won’t humiliate the girl. I think I spent a lot of money to get this sword manual with great difficulty..."
"Why do you think that this 'Vigorously Conquering Demon Sword Technique' is suitable for me to practice?" Yang Jiangyi interrupted Young Master Hua's words without politeness and asked aloud.
Hua Bushi said: "Miss Yang doesn't know something. Xiao Ke has loved medicine since he was a child and is very proficient in the art of 'recognizing people by physical appearance'. That day at the Wangyue Tower by the Xiangjiang River, I performed the 'physical observation' technique on the girl.
I know that the girl has extremely high qualifications in martial arts, and is especially good at such fast and swift sword techniques. The day before yesterday, I also used the method of 'measuring the meridians with a ruler', which made me even more sure."
"A ruler to measure the meridians?" Yang Jiangyi's complexion changed slightly, as if she had some realization: "It turns out that the tailor Zhenniang called yesterday was also colluding with you. No wonder it took so long to measure just one skirt!"
Hua Bushi smiled and said: "Zhou Xiangfu, the owner of the silk and satin shop, is also one of my creditors. It's natural for me to ask him to do some small favors."
Seeing that she was being tricked by this young master again, Yang Jiangyi felt bitter in her heart and was speechless for a moment.
Seeing that Yang Jiangyi didn't speak, Hua Bushi added: "This technique of 'knowing people by physical appearance' includes four methods: looking at the body, taking pulses, feeling the bones and measuring the meridians. If Miss Yang is still not at ease, I can use it."
The 'bone touching' method will be tested again. We only need to touch all the bones and joints of the girl's body to fully determine what kind of martial arts the girl is suitable for. At that time, we can..."
How could a girl's family let this evil young master touch her whole body? When Yang Jiangyi heard this, she was furious, her face darkened, and she wanted to violently break all the bones and joints of this thief!
Fortunately, Hua Bushi was very good at looking at faces. Seeing Yang Jiangyi's unkind intentions, he hurriedly changed his words: "It's just that there are differences between men and women. Of course, this method... hehe... is not very convenient. Even so, after using that'
Xiao Ke is also 70% to 80% sure about the techniques of "looking at the body" and "measuring the meridians with a ruler."
Although the Huashan sect has strict rules, Yang Jiangyi's master Hua Qingzhen is an extremely open-minded person. He has no objection to the swordsmanship of other sects. Instead, he often says to Yang Jiangyi, "Stones from other mountains can be used."
Attacking Jade" and so on. It's just that Yang Jiangyi has always lived on Mount Huashan and had no chance to learn the martial arts of other sects before.
When Hua Bushi saw that Yang Jiangyi was still silent, he added: "Miss Yang is here for the 'Five Tiger Heroes Conference'. Anyway, the conference is still nine days away. She will stay in my house for three days."
There won’t be any losses, and you can easily earn five hundred taels of silver, so why not do it?”
This Huada young man is obviously well versed in business, and he talks endlessly about sales: "Although my 'Evil Dog Courtyard' is located in a back alley, it is a rare and quiet place, and the backyard wing is even more...
It is extremely spacious and comfortable, and it is perfect for self-cultivation. The flowers are in bloom in the garden now, and the scenery is extremely beautiful. You only need to take a look and you will not want to leave, even if you stay here for several months.
It will feel boring…”
"Okay, I promise you." Yang Jiangyi, who had already experienced Hua Bushi's eloquence along the way, quickly interrupted him and said.
If he didn't stop him in time, this young master from Huada would probably keep talking for several hours and he wouldn't give up.
Hua Bushi was overjoyed when he heard this and jumped up and said: "In that case, Xiao Ke will take the girl to the backyard to see the sword manual now!"
The two of them left the living room and walked straight to the backyard.
Following Hua Bushi's footsteps, Yang Jiangyi discovered that although the courtyard of this house was very inconspicuous and the front hall and living room were quite shabby, the inner courtyard was huge. Each of the three courtyards was dozens of feet in diameter.
There are many wing rooms on the four sides, and there are courtyards on the east and west ends. It is more than enough to accommodate even a hundred and eighty people.
Although the place is large, it is also extremely quiet. Not a single maid or servant can be seen along the way. It is actually three points emptier than the old Chinese house where Yang Jiangyi lived two days ago. Every time you enter the center of the inner courtyard
There are several martial arts training grounds, in which stone locks, sandbags, wooden figures and other tools for practicing martial arts are all available. There are also some utensils that even Yang Jiangyi does not recognize.
In the innermost courtyard, Yang Jiangyi also saw a large square pool that was three feet long and wide and eight or nine feet deep. The pool was filled with clear water. It was so blue that it was unknown what its use was.
