Early the next morning.

Before dawn, Ning Shan was already standing in the yard, like a sturdy cypress tree.

"Master!"

Xiaonan's small figure stood in front of him, bowed, and called out respectfully.

The weather is cold now and many adults can't get out of bed, but Xiao Nan can persist every day. It can be seen that this child really wants to learn martial arts.

In addition to her excellent talent, Ning Shan became more and more pleased with her the more he looked at her.

He said calmly, "You have been following me for a while. This is a welcome gift from your master. Please accept it."

As he spoke, he took out a wooden sword he had carved from behind his back. He had become her disciple in a hurry and had not had time to prepare a gift for her, so he made up for it today.

Xiao Nan took the sword.

As soon as she held it in her hand, she felt its heavy weight. It was made of very good wood, and the blade was very sharp. It was polished very smoothly from beginning to end, without even a burr.

The master also carved patterns on the scabbard, and it was obvious that he had put a lot of thought into it.

After putting away the gifts, the training officially began.

"Let's start with the first item, running." Ning Shan said calmly, "First, run ten laps around the entire yard to warm up, and then we'll come back for the second item."

Xiao Nan nodded obediently, and without saying anything else, started running.

In addition to warming up, running can also exercise perseverance and endurance. After the warm-up, you need to start squatting to shape your body immediately.

Xiao Nan has been doing these exercises for the past few days. She would also review her lessons while doing horse stance. This was not a difficult task for her.

After the warm-up, the sun's shadow appeared on the horizon. At this time, the villagers gradually got up and went to the fields to prepare for work.

People from the village patrol team also came over one after another.

Because Xiao Nan has officially become a disciple of a master and is considered an inner disciple, the management is more strict and he needs to start practicing before dawn every day.

The patrol team members were just there to teach, so there was no mandatory time limit for them to come, as long as they came after sunrise.

These men in the village usually need to work, and the patrol team will come to Yun Zhenzhen's house to help in their spare time, or go to the town to find some work.

Coming here early every morning to practice martial arts is a good start to the new day without delaying anything. The most important thing is that learning martial arts here does not cost money, which is a great thing for the villagers.

Even some little kids in the village who are curious about martial arts would follow those uncles and learn from them.

When the sun rises completely, the morning practice is over.

Xiao Nan walked to the backyard, sweating all over, to take a shower.

Yun Zhenzhen looked at her with a smile: "Are you tired? If you feel you can't hold on, you can give up now. No matter what decision you make, mother will support you."

Xiao Nan immediately became energetic: "Mom, I'm not tired. I have enough energy now. I can continue studying after I take a shower."

Yun Zhenzhen couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, you didn't like to sleep at noon before, but now you have to exercise and study. From now on, you must sleep for a full half hour at noon every day, otherwise mother will be angry."

Xiaonan nodded obediently.

After cleaning up, Yun Zhenzhen walked into the yard and chatted with everyone for a while. Many people surrounded her and asked questions.

"Sister Yun, are you short of people in your workshop?"

"Yes, whenever you need help, call me. I'm strong and I promise to take care of everything for you."

"And me, I'm strong and careful, so I'm perfect for work..."

Everyone was talking when Ning Shan, who was standing at the edge of the yard, suddenly moved. He picked up the broom by the door and flew out, hitting the outside of the courtyard wall, and two wailing sounds were heard.

The men standing by the door immediately ran out, exclaiming, "Oh my God, there are two people squatting here stealthily. I don't know what they are doing."

"I don't think they're from our village, and I haven't seen them in the nearby villages either. How did these bastards sneak in?"

"Where's the patrol? What's going on..."

The two people at the foot of the wall were listening attentively, but were suddenly stunned by a broom falling from the sky. Before their brains could react, their legs had already taken a step.

run!

After Ning Shan noticed it, he stepped directly onto the stool and jumped hard, flew into the air, spread his legs apart, and kicked the two men with both feet.

The two people outside the door flew two meters away and fell to the ground. The men who ran out of the yard to catch them were stunned.

"Master Ning, you...you are so powerful. You flew out directly."

"I saw it too. Oh my god, it's amazing."

"With such a powerful master teaching us, the safety of the village depends on us."

"..."

Ning Shan was a little uncomfortable with such direct praise, so he could only say calmly, "Xiao Nan, go pick up your mother's broom and put it away."

Xiao Nan also had a look of admiration on his face. He picked up the broom and put it away neatly.

Ning Shan continued, "Madam, these two are not ordinary farmers. Their breathing is even and their reactions are quick. It's obvious that they have martial arts skills. To be on the safe side, we should tie them up first and then interrogate them."

Xiao Nan was a little dazed: "You can tell someone has kung fu just by their breathing. Master, how did you learn this? Can you teach me?"

Ning Shan was somewhat helpless: "You will understand when you learn it. Some things can only be understood but not expressed in words."

Song Shang quickly ran home and got a hemp rope. With the help of several people, he tied the man up like a dumpling in no time.

Yun Zhenzhen walked up to them and said, "Tell me who sent you here, don't force me to do anything."

"Let me be clear. Between the two of you, I can only let one go. Whoever tells me who's behind this first will go. As for the other person, I'll torture him with all sorts of torture until he's left with neither life nor death..."

At this point, she showed a wicked smile: "I'm going to start the countdown, three... two..."

Before she could utter the last number, two voices were heard at the same time.

"I said!"

"I...I said!"

Hearing the two of them speak at the same time, they looked at each other and actually saw a hint of accusation in each other's eyes.

"We are sent by the Xu family."

"He's the eldest master of the Xu family, Miss Xu's uncle."

"The master asked us to find out some news about the Yun family."

"It's best to find out more clearly. If there's a chance, we can just kidnap Miss Xu and take her back."

"If you can't tie it up, steal it. If you can't steal it, knock it out. As long as you can get it back, anything is fine."
