Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong have been having a hard time recently.
Different from Qin Wushuang's situation, they left Wu Tongyuan but came back without any achievements. To put it bluntly, they were Qin Wushuang's foils.
Especially Hu Ziyan, one of the only two aristocrats in Donglin Town, the Hu family and the Qin family were both from a poor family, and secretly wanted to compete with the Qin family.
Fang Xiaozhong, as Hu Ziyan's companion, is a distant relative of the Hu family. He has roots in Donglin Town. Although his family is relatively well-off, he is only from a civilian family and does not have a noble seat.
Therefore, his status can be said to be the lowest in Wutongyuan, and he is also the most despised. This has also developed his somewhat timid style.
If it weren't for the nonsense surrounding him, Fang Xiaozhong would not have the capital to gain a foothold in Wutongyuan.
After being scolded by the clan elder for several days, Hu Ziyan's initial passionate enthusiasm had cooled down a lot. Think about it, was he really too impulsive?
But he also knew that he would not have a good life if he stayed in Wu Tongyuan.
On this day, Fang Xiaozhong sneaked into Hu Ziyan's house. The two exchanged glances for a while, understood each other, walked out and went straight to the Qin family manor.
After Wu Tongyuan dropped out of school, these two people had regarded Qin Wushuang as the core figure in their small circle.
After arriving at the Qin family manor, I learned that Qin Wushuang had gone out early to climb Dacang Mountain.
The two of them missed each other, felt frustrated, and were about to leave. Suddenly Qin Xiu walked out of the manor and said with a smile: "Hu Ziyan, Fang Xiaozhong, why did you leave so soon after you came?"
Both of them knew Qin Xiu, and both greeted him: "Sister Qin Xiu."
"Come into the manor and have a seat. Wushuang will be back soon." Qin Xiu welcomed them into the manor with a smile.
The two of them were a little reserved in front of Qin Xiu.
Qin Xiu couldn't help but lead them into the manor, one by one with each hand, and ordered his servants to prepare a lot of snacks and food.
The Qin family in Donglin Town has a strong industry and is second to none in Donglin Town. Even the wealthy Xu family in Luojiang County is jealous of their industry, which shows how big their family business is.
The snacks were put out, and there were so many that even Hu Ziyan rarely ate them.
Qin Xiu greeted: "Eat quickly, just like at home. I have something to ask you."
Seeing Qin Xiu's cordiality, the two of them relaxed a little. Qin Xiu had some sex and asked about their situation at Wu Tongyuan.
The two of them answered questions and ate while gradually getting to know Qin Xiu, and the young man's character gradually emerged. Especially Fang Xiaozhong, knowing that what Qin Xiu wanted to hear must be Qin Wushuang's deeds, he was very happy and gushing.
Especially the scene where Qin Wushuang fights Zhang Xian, after processing, it is even more magical.
Qin Xiu smiled and asked, very happy.
During the excitement, Qin Wushuang's voice sounded from outside the village: "Fang Xiaozhong, I haven't seen you for a while. Your bragging skills have improved."
Hearing Qin Wushuang's voice, Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong both stood up.
Qin Wushuang walked into the manor and said with a smile: "You two must have been scolded a lot when you went home, right?"
Hu Ziyan chuckled, and Fang Xiaozhong rubbed his hands repeatedly, admiring Qin Wushuang's ability to do things like a god.
"Okay, Wushuang is back, you three brats, let's play together." Qin Xiu knew that they had a lot to talk about when they were young people, so he left with a smile.
"Wushuang, I heard from Sister Qin Xiu that you climb Dacang Mountain very early every day?" Hu Ziyan asked.
"Well, if the young man doesn't work hard, the boss will be sad. What plans do you two have?" Qin Wushuang could see that the two of them had not yet adapted after returning from the Wutong Academy.
"We can only do some basic training in the family. It's a pity that for a poor family like ours, there are too few martial arts lessons at home." Hu Ziyan said with emotion.
Fang Xiaozhong blinked: "Brother Wushuang, you were very powerful in beating Zhang Xian to death. I saw that your training methods in Wutong Academy are also very unusual. Why don't you let us train with you?"
Qin Wushuang was silent for a moment.
Hu Ziyan also looked forward to it: "Wushuang, how about taking us together?"
Qin Wushuang smiled and said: "My method is not suitable for you. If you really want to learn, I will develop a method for you that suits your situation. As long as you persist, your results will definitely be the same in the martial arts test three years later.
That’s the difference.”
"Why is Brother Wushuang's method not suitable for us?" Fang Xiaozhong felt very strange.
Hu Ziyan thought thoughtfully: "Idiot, Qin Wushuang's cultivation level is higher than ours. If we follow him, we will be held back."
After inspecting the details of the two people, Qin Wushuang immediately formulated a training plan for them and asked them to follow this plan for one year.
"Remember, cultivation is all about perseverance. This plan must be completed every day. If you slack off one day, don't come to me after a year!"
Qin Wushuang is very serious about his cultivation and will never allow any sloppiness.
The two got the practice plan and went away happily.
After three months, the two actually found that their strength had been significantly improved, and all aspects of their physical functions had also been significantly improved.
As a result, they did not dare to slack off, and for the next nine months, they persisted regardless of the cold or heat.
When Hu Ziyan's father, the patriarch, saw Hu Ziyan hanging out with Fang Xiaozhong all day long, he felt that he hated iron at first, but later he felt that the two boys were doing something very similar every day, so he did not object strongly.
After half a year, he clearly noticed the changes in his son and called Hu Ziyan to ask what was going on. He took a look at their cultivation plan and was very surprised.
Hearing that Qin Wushuang made the plan for them, the patriarch of the Hu family from a humble family was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he said: "This Qin family is not simple."
"That's right! Otherwise, how could I beat Zhang Xian to death?" Hu Ziyan muttered.
"Well, it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to walk around with him more in the future."
When Hu Ziyan saw that his father no longer scolded him, but instead encouraged him to date Qin Wushuang, he was very excited, nodded vigorously, and ran out.
One year, a whole year passed.
The changes in Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong made everyone around them feel happy.
On this day, the two went to the Qin family manor to find Qin Wushuang again. Qin Wushuang saw the two people smiling happily and looking very satisfied. He said nothing and smiled: "Tomorrow at Yinshi, come with me to climb Dacang Mountain.
!”
When the two heard that Qin Wushuang said he was willing to take them to train together, they cheered and hurried back to get ready.
As soon as the ugly moment passed, the two people came to the Qin family manor with great energy. Qin Wushuang had also arrived outside the door. Seeing that the two people had arrived on time, he nodded: "Let's go! Remember, you must follow me, who
Whoever is left behind is a coward!"
For the first thirty miles, the three of them were very relaxed. Fang Xiaozhong and Hu Ziyan were still talking and laughing.
At sixty miles, I didn't feel any reaction, but I felt my breathing was a little faster.
After a hundred miles, Fang Xiaozhong's breathing had obviously begun to quicken. After holding on for another twenty miles, even Hu Ziyan began to gasp for air, and his feet almost felt like lead.
Looking at Qin Wushuang again, he looked calm and calm, looking at them with a smile without saying anything.
This smile made Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong swallow all the begging words that came to their mouths, bite the bullet, and follow Qin Wushuang with all their lives to prevent the distance from getting further.
After finally holding on for another forty miles, Qin Wushuang finally stopped.
The two men's whole bodies were sore and weak, and their chests seemed to be pressed by huge rocks. They kept breathing in the fresh air that only living people should enjoy. Their faces were pale and their limbs were almost trembling.
"So, have you underestimated this one hundred and sixty-mile mountain road?" Qin Wushuang's face was rosy, but his breathing was long.
This route was planned by Qin Wushuang for himself. He kept circling along the mountain road of Da Cang Mountain and climbed to the top of the mountain in a spiral shape.
This one hundred and sixty mile mountain road requires at least two to three times more physical and foot strength than on flat ground.
With great difficulty, Hu Ziyan finally took a breath and sighed: "The plan you made for us is to run ten times around Donglin Town, covering more than a hundred miles. We usually run without feeling too tired. This
Mountain roads are just different.”
Fang Xiaozhong also came to his senses at this time and said excitedly: "Fortunately, we are not lagging behind and we are not cowards. Brother Wushuang, are we almost close to your level now?"
Qin Wushuang smiled and said nothing.
Hu Ziyan seemed to have discovered something, and looked carefully along the footprints on the ground. Why did he think Qin Wushuang's footprints were much deeper than theirs?
"Wushuang, why are your footprints so deep? Yes, you have something tied to your feet!?"
With curiosity, he took off Qin Wushuang's trousers, and was surprised to find that they were tied with iron bars.
The iron bars were made of special iron and were extremely heavy. Three were tied to each foot.
Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong looked at each other. They originally thought that after a year of special training, the gap between them and Qin Wushuang would definitely be narrowed, but now it seems that the distance is getting farther and farther.
"Starting from today, you will follow this route every day for one year! Okay, starting now, I will teach each of you a set of attack martial arts."
Qin Wushuang was a martial arts master in his previous life, so he naturally knew how to teach students according to their aptitude.
Hu Ziyan and Fang Xiaozhong have different approaches. One is upright and the other is flexible. The attack skills they teach are naturally different.
The "Eighteen Pans" that Hu Ziyan learned were powerful and fierce, close to masculinity; while Fang Xiaozhong taught a set of "Spiritual Snake Fights" to pursue the ingenious and tricky.
With the current foundation of these two people, they are still far away from cultivating advanced skills. Of course, Qin Wushuang will not encourage them.
There are still two years left before Wu Tong's test. If you can take them for a ride, take them for a ride! After all, they are fellow villagers, and they can be considered as having gone through adversity together.
Let them shine in the Wutong test and honor their ancestors, which is worthy of this friendship.
