Comprehensive Martial Arts: Relying on Pili Martial Arts to Achieve Dimensionality Reduction Attack

Chapter 124 Old Man Sun, let Miss Xiaohong follow me...

The appearance of Tianyun Mountain is very special. It is basically a high peak rising from the flat ground, which is quite conspicuous.

Only a small forest can be seen five miles away from the foot of the mountain, while within five miles, there is endless yellow sand and gravel.

There are almost no green plants to be seen, only sparse weeds growing in groups of three or five. They have a very difficult time surviving and are scattered very unevenly.

It is said that because too many people from the martial arts world died in fights here, the evil spirits and resentment were too heavy, so such a desolate place appeared.

The top of the mountain is about 500 meters above the ground, and there is almost no safe, stable and flat road to get up.

It is basically impossible for people who do not practice martial arts to reach the top of the mountain. Even for people who practice martial arts, if they want to reach the top of the mountain, they will need to practice for at least three to five years to do so.

At this time, there was still more than half an hour before the Fengyun Monument was opened, but many people had already gathered at the foot of the mountain.

Lu Ping looked into the distance and roughly estimated that there were about two thousand people.

In the crowd, there was an older generation of wanderers with gray hair on his temples who was explaining relevant science knowledge to the young people. Lu Ping found it interesting, so he walked forward to listen.

When he got closer, Lu Ping realized that the old man who was giving science education to the younger generation was actually an old acquaintance of his - the old smoker, Old Man Sun, who had stayed in Taiping Town for a period of time, and his eight-year-old granddaughter.

Old Man Sun and his grandparents, Sun Xiaohong, have only been semi-settled in Taiping Town for the past one or two years, so the relationship between Lu Ping and them is just that of an ordinary storyteller and listener. They have a friendship, but it is not that deep.

But after all, this was an old acquaintance meeting again, and there was a kind of joy as if "meeting an old friend in a foreign land".

Listen to the old man Sun coughing lightly and telling the story——

"The Wind and Cloud Monument on Tianyun Mountain is one of the most bizarre things in the martial arts world of Southern Wulin!"

"Some say it was made by magic, others say it was created by machinery, but more people believe it was created by the will of heaven and earth after the earth's atmosphere on the Shenzhou continent changed drastically hundreds of years ago."

"After all, there are many strange landforms formed by the earth's energy. The Evil Valley, the Road of No Return, the Water Moon Cave, the Five Poison Swamp, the Divine Gu Peak, etc., which are well-known in the martial arts world today, all appeared in that era."

"It makes sense that there is one more monument."

Sun Xiaohong, a girl wearing red braids, blinked her bright eyes and asked curiously, "Grandpa, where is the Fengyun Monument you mentioned?"

Old Man Sun tapped the pipe in his hand, and a few sparks came out of it: "You asked me where the Fengyun Monument is? Of course it is on the top of Tianyun Mountain! Here... look there..."

Sun Xiaohong turned her head to look over there, and the people around her followed her to look over there.

"Grandpa, it's bare there, there's nothing there!"

Old Man Sun laughed: "Of course there is nothing now, because it is not yet time for the Wind and Cloud Monument to appear in the world!"

"That stone tablet only appears once every twenty years. Once the time comes, it will be erected directly on the top of the peak. At that time, the movement here can be felt within a radius of dozens of miles..."

An old man and a young boy performed comic and supporting roles, and explained clearly the origin, legends, stories and precautions of the Fengyun Monument.

Lu Ping heard it clearly and found that it was not much different from what he remembered.

It just existed for a relatively short time, only about 400 years. Research on its origins tends to suggest that it was a change in terrain caused by the earth's energy, but there is no solid evidence.

After the people around had dispersed, Lu Ping stepped forward to greet the two men.

"Old Man Sun, Miss Sun, long time no see..."

"Eh?! It's you, Brother Lu? Oh no, I should call you Niqi Lu Ren now, right?"

Sun Xiaohong started laughing as she spoke, with a teasing look in her eyes of an insider. She looked at Lu Ping as if to say: We all know that the Qi Lu Ren is you, stop pretending!

As a person who relies on his eyes and mouth to make a living, the most important thing is to recognize people and remember things.

Not to mention that they already knew each other, Lu Ping had gradually made a name for himself in the world over the past month or two, so Sun Xiaohong naturally recognized him.

Lu Ping didn't think much of the fact that his identity was revealed. He just smiled and said, "The one who hides the truth cannot be recognized. Qi Lu Ren is just a pseudonym. We are old acquaintances in person, so you can call me whatever you want..."

After the greetings, Old Man Sun looked at Lu Ping and asked, "Brother Lu, are you here just to join in the fun, or do you want to try your luck and leave your name on the Fengyun Monument?"

Lu Ping had already answered this question in his mind: "It's mainly to join in the fun. As for whether to leave a name or not, we'll have to wait and see how things go."

"I see……"

"Why don't you go up and try, Mr. Sun?"

"Oh my... please don't torture my old bones..."

Old Man Sun smiled bitterly and said, "The era of old men has long passed. There are many young people as capable as you in the martial arts world now..."

Lu Ping just smiled faintly when he heard this.

Considering his age, even if Old Man Sun had participated in the Fengyun Monument, that was in the previous session. And the martial arts world undergoes a revolution every ten years. When he says that his era has passed, he may not be being modest.

Speaking of young people, Lu Ping couldn't help but think of his main mission of "Young Jianghu". Now this has reached the "God" level, and he needs to find four more people next.

However, it is not easy to find four young and talented people who are willing to join his organization and become his younger brothers. After scanning the crowd, Lu Ping's eyes suddenly fell on the little boy in red clothes beside him, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

The right person, isn’t he right beside you?
Lu Ping suppressed the evil smile on his face, pulled Old Man Sun's sleeve and asked, "Old Man Sun, are you willing to let Miss Xiaohong learn martial arts as well?"

Old Man Sun's face changed: "What's the point of a little girl learning those fighting and killing martial arts?"

It is obvious that he doesn't want his granddaughter to get into trouble.

"That's not what I meant. Learning some martial arts is good for your safety!"

Lu Ping shook his head and said, "Besides, traveling with you is not an easy thing in itself!"

"Little Hong is grown up now. She will definitely be more beautiful in a few years. There are many evil spirits in the martial arts world. If she doesn't know martial arts, won't she be bullied in the future?"

"Hmph... With my old bones, I can still protect a granddaughter, right?"

Lu Ping chuckled when he heard this: "Who just said that his time has passed and there are many young people like me in the world?"

"To be frank, you may not even be able to take me down, let alone others?"

The resentment on Old Man Sun's face gradually subsided, and his brows were wrinkled like a chrysanthemum.

Seeing that the other party was somewhat relaxed, Lu Ping simply struck while the iron was hot: "Besides, you can't always follow her. There will always be a time when people are alone, right?"

"Which is safer, relying on others to protect you for your whole life, or practicing martial arts to become stronger? If you look at Li Xunhuan's wife Lin Shiyin, you should have the answer, right?"

If at the beginning, Old Man Sun only felt that Lu Ping's words made 50% sense, then after hearing Lin Shiyin's example, he felt that the truth increased to 100%.

As a storyteller, he knows the most about the gossips and anecdotes in the martial arts world.

At the beginning, Lin Shiyin was just a weak woman who didn't know martial arts, and everyone always had the stereotype of her as "Li Xunhuan's woman."

Later, she learned the "Lianhua Baojian" and became a top master in the martial arts world in just a few years. From then on, she transformed herself into a praised female hero and a role model for young girls in the martial arts world.

Even in recent years, Lin Shiyin's reputation in the underworld has almost surpassed that of her husband Li Xunhuan.

The most important thing is that even Sun Xiaohong herself admired Lin Shiyin very much and once sighed, "If you want to be a good person, you should learn from Lin Shiyin, and if you want to marry, you should marry Li Xunhuan."

"That's all...what you said does make some sense."

After careful consideration, Old Man Sun sighed, "If a person does not get involved in the mundane world, the mundane world will get involved in him... Just learn it. When I return, I will pass on my unique skills to you!"

“No way…” Lu Ping’s face was full of disgust.

"what happened?"

"You let a little girl learn to play with a short stick? What are you thinking?"

What happened to the short stick?
Is there still gender discrimination against people who learn to play martial arts in the underworld?

"What are you thinking? I don't understand! Come on... my dear granddaughter, come here."

Old Man Sun waved his hand and called Xiao Hong to his side, then squatted down and asked, "Grandpa is going to pass on his kung fu to you, do you want to learn it?"

"…Isn't it enough for me to have grandpa protect me?"

Sun Xiaohong hesitated.

Old man Sun felt disappointed.

Isn’t the resistance so deep?

You must be too young to know how powerful this Tianji stick is...

"My dear granddaughter, listen to what Grandpa says..."

Old Man Sun wanted to say something, but Lu Ping interrupted him.

"Hey... Old Man Sun, Xiaohong doesn't like playing with sticks, so why are you forcing her? Isn't it good for a girl to learn some Qinggong and swordsmanship?"

Anyway, you will have plenty of opportunities to learn how to use the Tianji Stick when you grow up.

Maybe if she first has a foundation in internal strength, swordsmanship and other martial arts, she can then apply what she has learned to other situations, and make rapid progress in her practice by playing with a stick, and even be able to draw inferences about other situations by learning from one example!
"Lu family boy, is there something behind your words?"

Old Man Sun looked at Lu Ping with an increasingly hostile look in his eyes: "Tell me the truth, what are your intentions towards my granddaughter?"

"Don't say it so harshly..."

"It's just that I saw that she has a very good understanding, so I wanted to find another disciple for my master to inherit my martial arts."
