Chapter 38: I sincerely pray for my apprenticeship
Chapter 38 Sincerely Begging to Become a Disciple
Seeing that Zhang Fei was finally convinced, Liu Zhang quickly helped him up and said: "Get up quickly, we brothers, don't talk about this."
"Hehe!" Zhang Fei said with a silly smile: "My eldest brother is still powerful. I don't know what kind of boxing method he used to make my brother so aggrieved. I heard from the master that I am born with supernatural power, and ordinary people can't beat me! But I am so big.
I am so strong that I can't fight back under my brother, it's really amazing."
"This boxing technique is called Tai Chi!" Liu Zhang said with a shameless smile: "This is my own boxing technique, and it has miraculous effects on people like you who have natural supernatural powers!
"Uh?!" Zhang Fei said in shock: "No wonder I can't beat my brother. It turns out that my brother's boxing skills are specially designed to restrain me! No! My brother has to teach me this set of boxing!"
"If you want to learn it, how can my brother be stingy?" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "However, this boxing is easy to learn but hard to master. Let me show you how to do it once!"
Liu Zhang showed Zhang Fei each Tai Chi move and explained it to him, but before he was halfway through the fight, Zhang Fei shouted: "Brother, you are not fooling me! Can this kind of boxing also hit someone?"
Forget it! Let’s go back and have a drink!”
After listening to Zhang Fei's complaint, Liu Zhang secretly laughed in his heart. Tai Chi is an internal martial art, which emphasizes the combination of movement and stillness, and the natural flow of breath. It has a Taoist taste of tranquility and inaction. With Zhang Fei's fiery temperament, if he learns Baji Beng
He may be very interested in boxing or Hongquan, but Tai Chi is really not to his taste. Unfortunately, Liu Zhang only knows a little bit about Bajiquan and Hongquan, having seen his father practice them in his previous life.
After staying at Zhang Xiong's mansion for two days, Liu Zhang asked someone to report back to Liu Yan immediately, saying that the son of Zhang Xiong butcher Zhang in Zhuo County was a boy he valued and would become a general in the future. Liu Yan didn't care about Butcher Zhang.
Who is his son? He believed in Liu Zhang's vision. As a result, it didn't take long for the whole Youzhou to know that there was a butcher Zhang in Zhuo County who should not be messed with, because behind him was the little fierce god Liu Zhang!
On the third day, Liu Yan's reply came, and Liu Zhang stopped staying. He was walking and playing on the road, which had already delayed a lot of time. It was a very bad behavior to keep Tong Yuan, a master, waiting for a long time. On the road
Before, Liu Zhang pulled Zhang Fei and said: "Brother, you not only have to practice martial arts, but also study hard. From now on, my brother will take you to the battlefield, so you don't have to worry about anyone bullying you! My brother is a clan member of the Han Dynasty!"
Zhang Fei was still young and didn't understand the concept of Han clan clan, but Zhang Xiong knew that they were relatives of the emperor. Now that he was hugging Liu Zhang's thick legs, Zhang Xiong had no other thoughts. What's more, Zhang Fei
The relationship with Liu Zhang developed rapidly in the past two days, and Zhang Xiong was shocked that Liu Zhang, a seemingly thin young man, was able to compete with Zhang Fei.
You know, every time Zhang Xiong 'educates' Zhang Fei, he will be a little uncomfortable with Zhang Fei's huge power. In his opinion, Zhang Fei can surpass him when he is only fifteen years old. Zhang Xiong has always been worried about Zhang Fei's future.
He knew that people who rely on force to show off their strength often end badly. That Xiang Yuyong was so brave, but he didn’t even leave his body intact in the capital!
Now that he has Liu Zhang, Zhang Xiong is relieved! What's more, Zhang Xiong also knows that Shi A beside Liu Zhang is a disciple of Wang Yue, and Liu Zhang is a disciple of Tong Yuan. He is a disciple of the two great masters in the late Han Dynasty, and he can't discipline Zhang Fei.
?Zhang Xiong was very proud when he thought about it! However, before Liu Zhang left, he asked Zhang Xiong to recruit more heroes from the Jianghu, saying that they would be useful in the future. This made Zhang Xiong a little puzzled, but he did not ask more questions. The rich family was not recruiting dead soldiers.
A few. As for the purpose of recruiting dead soldiers, Zhang Xiong did not dare to ask. He understood that the more he knew, the faster he would die.
Liu Zhang was reluctantly persuaded by Zhang Xiong and Zhang Fei to leave Zhuo County and set off for Changshan County. After walking for nearly half a month, he finally arrived at Zhending Mansion in Changshan County! He took out the simple map drawn by Tong Yuan.
Liu Zhang finally found the mountain Tong Yuan was talking about. There is nothing special about this mountain, but I don't know why Tong Yuan chose it here.
In order to show respect for his teacher, Liu Zhang got off his carriage and walked up the mountain. Halfway up the mountain, he actually saw a thatched cottage on the top of the mountain, and there was a flat land in front of the thatched cottage. From the mountainside, it looked like someone had flattened the top of the mountain, and then
A hut was built on the flat land!
Liu Zhang climbed to the top of the mountain and immediately paused in front of the hut and said: "Master! Disciple Liu Zhang pays my respects!"
"Zhang'er is here! Come in!" The hut opened, and Tong Yuan and Zhang Ren were seen sitting inside the hut, seemingly teaching something.
"I've met senior brother!" Liu Zhang knew that there were many people in the ceremony, so it was not surprising, not to mention that he knew Zhang Ren's talents well.
Zhang Ren was also very optimistic about Liu Zhang, and he immediately stood up and returned the courtesy. The two looked like brothers and sisters, which made Tong Yuan very happy. Liu Zhang's identity was there, and based on this relationship, Zhang Ren would definitely be able to join the army if he joined the army.
Avoid many detours.
After looking at Liu Zhang carefully, Tong Yuan smiled and said: "Zhang'er, it's only half a month's journey from Jixian to here, but you've walked for a month!"
"Master, this is my first time traveling far away. It is inevitable that I will linger on the road for a while!" Liu Zhang blushed and scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "Besides, my disciple was still meddling in other people's business on the way!"
Tong Yuan smiled and said, "You are such a nosy kid!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the boy was nosy, he wouldn't have met the master, right? A good person will always be rewarded, and the apprentice is not a bad person!" Liu Zhang smiled and put Zhang Xiong's story aside, and Tong Yuan nodded repeatedly.
"I have also heard about Butcher Zhang of Zhuo County. He is quite a chivalrous man. You can save his life, which is considered his blessing!" Tong Yuan nodded and said, "However, you have a close relationship with Butcher Zhang's son.
Don’t you think it’s beneath your status to call us brothers and sisters?”
"This..." Liu Zhang hesitated for a moment and said: "Master, as the saying goes: Every time a dog is slaughtered for justice! Emperor Gaozu came from a humble background, Xiao He was just a small official, and Han Xin was just a husband. Fan Kuai, Xia Houying, and Cao Shen were just
Dog butchers, cart drivers and the like. Our ancestors did not regard them as humble, but they relied on them to achieve a lot of imperial achievements. Although I am not talented and cannot compare with my ancestors, most of the heroes in the world come from poor families. How can my disciples despise them because of their status?
?What’s the difference between judging people by their status and judging them by their appearance?”
Tong Yuan was very happy. He was unwilling to teach martial arts to the officials or the children of aristocratic families because these people always looked at people based on their status. Tong Yuan was born in a poor family, and the children of aristocratic families looked down on him. He also looked down on the children of aristocratic families. When he accepted Liu Zhang as his disciple
, thought that Liu Zhang intended to be courteous to the virtuous corporal. But as time went by, he discovered that Liu Zhang was also very polite to his servants. In this strict hierarchical feudal era, servants are the master's property. Does the master also need to be polite when using his own property? From then on,
Regarding Zhang Xiong's case, Tong Yuan was very pleased to see that Liu Zhang did not reject poor families and even intended to promote them.
"Zhang'er, you didn't come alone!" Tong Yuan said with a smile: "Ren'er, take your junior brother to choose a room, and also choose a room for his entourage!"
"Master, no need!" Liu Zhang said with a smile: "Huang Xu and Shi A are both my brothers, just let them live with me!"
"Okay! Okay!" Tong Yuan said with a smile: "You have worked hard all the way, hurry up and clean up! Tomorrow, my teacher will start teaching you martial arts! If you don't have a rest today...hehehe..."
Looking at Tong Yuan's sinister smile, Zhang Ren and Liu Zhang couldn't help but shudder. Zhang Ren quickly took Liu Zhang down to clean up the house, so as not to have to be tidied up by Tong Yuan tomorrow when he was really weak.
"I said! I no longer accept apprentices!" While cleaning up the room, Liu Zhang and others heard someone talking outside the house. They immediately walked out of the door and saw Tong Yuan standing not far away, saying something to the two children. The two
But a child is kneeling on the ground, as if you don't agree and we won't get up.
Liu Zhang asked in surprise: "Senior brother, what's going on?"
"Hi! Two children who want to be apprentices have come three times! I don't know why the master doesn't take them in!" Zhang Ren said with a smile: "However, the master appreciates them very much. All this may be a test for them by the master.
"
Liu Zhang smiled and said: "If this is the case, it seems that we will have two more junior brothers!"
"Oh? How does junior brother know?"
"Things can only be done in three ways!"
"..." Zhang Ren was stunned.
"By the way, senior brother, what are the names of these two people?" Liu Zhang suddenly remembered that Tong Yuan only had three apprentices, Zhang Ren, Zhang Xiu, and Zhao Yun. Zhang Ren is here and Zhang Xiu is in Liangzhou. Among these two people, very few
One of them might be Zhao Yun! Liu Zhang's eyes flashed when he thought of this. Unfortunately, Zhang Ren didn't know the names of these two people. Not only Zhang Ren didn't know, but maybe even Tong Yuan didn't know.
"Humph! If you want to kneel down, then kneel down! No one will care about you if you kneel to death!" Tong Yuan snorted coldly and walked away, leaving only the two children kneeling there.
Tong Yuan became angry, and Zhang Ren and Liu Zhang quickly retreated into the house. Although Liu Zhang wanted to speak for the two children, he knew that it was not the time yet. Tong Yuan must have liked these two children, otherwise he would have killed them long ago.
Suddenly, Liu Zhang suddenly realized that maybe Tong Yuan settled in this mountain just for one of these two children! Then... Liu Zhang made up his mind.
The next day, Liu Zhang and Zhang Ren were woken up by Tong Yuan early. When they came to the front yard, they saw that the two children were still kneeling there. It was obvious that they had been kneeling all night. Tong Yuan stood in the yard and looked at them carefully.
Zhang Ren and Liu Zhang explained the Hundred Birds Chao Feng Gun, and the two little guys kneeling aside seemed to be listening attentively. Tong Yuan ignored them. After explaining, he went back to the house and asked Liu Zhang and Zhang Ren
Practice by yourself in the yard.
On the third day, it was still the same, except that the two children were already a little drowsy. In the evening, they finally couldn't support themselves and fell to the ground. Upon seeing this, Liu Zhang hurriedly reported to Tong Yuan. Tong Yuan immediately hugged the two
When he entered the house, he just wanted to see the two people's perseverance, and did not want to kill them.
After a night's rest, the two children finally recovered their vitality. When they saw Tong Yuan, they immediately struggled up from the bed, knelt on the ground and begged: "Sir, we two are really sincere disciples, please take him in with mercy!"
