A mysterious apprentice

"This guy, it's a bit of a surprise. I thought he would ask us to just throw away the things." Bai Yuan sat on the small bench, holding his chin with both hands.

Xiao Zheng stood in the yard, he seemed to be preoccupied, rather absent-minded.

"By the way, why did you suddenly remind me today, otherwise I would almost forget about it."

After hearing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head. In fact, he also suddenly remembered it, but he had an inexplicable premonition at that time, so he simply asked.

And then Liang Xihe's subtle reaction made it seem like he had some premeditated plan.

"Speaking of which, Xiao Zheng, do you know how to play the piano?" Seeing Xiao Zheng began to practice his sword, Bai Yuan suddenly stood up and walked towards him.

"Yes, it should be." He said indifferently, it seems that he really didn't take this seriously.

Bai Yuan's mouth was constricted, and he didn't dare to tell the fact that he didn't know how to play the piano, so it wasn't necessary in the first place, sons and daughters of martial arts, why must he be involved with things played by literati such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

But everyone around him seemed to know it, even Xiao Zheng, who walked out of the ravine, could do it, which made him a little unhappy.

Small inferiority complex.

"Well, that piano doesn't look like it can play well, and I always feel that Fang Shuyan may not be able to last much longer." Recalling the scarlet scene I saw yesterday, Fang Shuyan's own life is hidden in the blood The breath also flowed out, "If that Qin is nourished in such a sinister way, it will probably be very bad in the future."

Xiao Zheng nodded sullenly. He didn't speak, but just continued training numbly.

An evil piano?

It doesn't seem like that should be the case. The sadness in the sound of the piano is the sadness of the player who plays the piano. The piano just faithfully reveals Fang Shuyan's heart through the sound of the piano.

It did nothing wrong.

The wooden sword knocked away the falling green leaves, and time passed inadvertently until the ending appeared.

"That's not enough, you have to be faster and more accurate!"

In the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and the dense forest outside cast a shadow, and the two people in white clothes attacked each other at a very close distance.

The place was too narrow, and the wooden swords in their hands were replaced with small branches, simulating daggers stabbing each other.

If you only practice swords, you will never be able to practice swords well.

With this in mind, Bai Yuan pulled Xiao Zheng to start practicing other weapons. After all, he finally chose a dagger.

"In hand-to-hand combat, you can take advantage of the unpreparedness to stab out, as long as you can aim at the right position, then everything is very simple." Bai Yuan tapped Xiao Zheng's chest, and the branch scraped it twice, " But you still have to keep your distance.”

Xiao Zheng nodded clearly, and fiddled with the real dagger in his hand twice.

Looking at him, Bai Yuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The world is indeed a bit chaotic now, with all kinds of people, it's very different from before."

"It used to be, how was it?"

Bai Yuan swept out a reasonably clean place with a branch, and then sat down on his buttocks: "It's very chaotic now, there are people committing crimes everywhere, but in the past, there was always only one committing crimes, and that was the Demon Cult. There is only one in the whole world." The Demon Cult is an evil person that must be eradicated, and the others are nothing."

But since the disappearance of the big villain Demon Cult, the peace and happiness that everyone thought has not come, but more and more chaos.

"At that time, I went to the holy mountain with countless righteous knights and capable people. At that time, I really felt that I was about to kill evil for the people." He stretched slowly, and Xiao Zheng said silently. Looking at him, "It's been two years now and nothing has changed, it's even worse."

The martial arts are no longer united, and loosely started to fight internally. At the same time, there are more and more people under the banner of the remnants of the Demon Cult.

Moreover, although that was just a special case, Fang Shuyan has indeed changed quite a lot.

Sometimes change may not be a good thing, and maintaining the status quo may not be a bad thing.

No one came to disturb them until the evening, and Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng enjoyed a quite free practice time.

You don't need to worry about so many things, just exercising to your heart's content is enough.

Xiao Zheng himself is very interested in the martial arts of the Central Plains, and Bai Yuan will work even harder when he meets a comparable opponent.

It's been totally fun today.

"We can practice more in the future, there is nothing faster than sparring."

Given time, he will surely become a martial arts hero.

"If the master is happy, then I am also very happy." Xiao Zheng showed a slight smile, "But, I came to the Central Plains Wulin to find the leader."

Bai Yuan froze for a moment, and the overflowing joy subsided a lot in an instant.

Yes, after all, Xiao Zheng didn't come here to learn martial arts. To put it bluntly, he worshiped him as a teacher because it was more convenient for him to find the leader.

So after finding it, leaving is also a matter of course.

Aware of Bai Yuan's loneliness after a while, Xiao Zheng frowned in confusion. He thought he didn't say anything wrong, but he also knew that he must have said something wrong.

Otherwise, how could it make Master unhappy?

"I will help you. After this matter is over, I will definitely help you find the missing leader. Don't worry about this, and, no matter what, I hope that you can remember I am your master."

After walking forward dully for a while, Bai Yuan finally choked out a few words.

Xiao Zheng suddenly realized the truth, and he immediately replied: "Thank you, Master, the leader and I will thank you. Moreover, I don't plan to return to the Holy Church."

"It's nothing, this is what I should do. You don't plan to go back, that's okay, I also... Hey? What, what did you say?"

Bai Yuan was so depressed that he could only follow Xiao Zheng's words, but after he was stunned for two seconds, he suddenly heard the key point, starlight appeared in his eyes, and his eyes were tightly locked on Xiao Zheng.

"En." Xiao Zheng nodded solemnly to affirm Bai Yuan's doubts, "I want to continue to learn from Master. Master's words can bring me more things."

The more Bai Yuan heard it, the more he felt that there was a fire burning on his own face, but the burning became stronger and stronger, which made him a little embarrassed to look up.

Xiao Zheng is very good at bragging about his master, and he doesn't know how to reply one sentence after another.

The two returned to Wanhe Villa with their own thoughts, but before they could sort out the thoughts running around in their heads, an unexpected thing happened suddenly.

The little boy suddenly jumped out from the side of the path, his whole face was weeping, and he kept slapping his face.

"What's the matter, what's the matter with you?" Bai Yuan hurriedly bent down to hug him, and wiped away the tears on his face with his hand.

The little boy quickly grabbed Bai Yuan's sleeve, and he couldn't say enough words: "Brother, brother, master, master, master... I beg you, please save my master, please!"

Despite their doubts, Bai Yuan and Xiao Zheng rushed over immediately.

However, before they got close enough, they could already smell a very bad rancid smell at the door.

"Master." Xiao Zheng stepped forward to stop Bai Yuan, and took the initiative to lift the curtain for him.

The old man lay down on the bed quite painfully, his breathing sound was extraordinarily heavy, and he looked very weak.

Xiao Zheng frowned, but Bai Yuan didn't hesitate at all: "This won't work, we have to call Zhao Xuyu over immediately, otherwise something might happen."

Just as Bai Yuan expected, what the old man suffers from is not a simple disease, but a purer one, a kind of poison.

Zhao Xuyu barely suppressed his pain at this time through acupuncture, but he could not do anything about further treatment.

"I need a very important medicinal material to do it." She frowned, in addition to being puzzled, "and the area where this medicinal material grows is very narrow, as far as I know, only Liu Fengrou's hometown, It is near that village. And if the next arrangement, it may be just right."

With the end of her words, Bai Yuan also stood up.

Indeed, it is too much of a coincidence why this poisonous medicine happened to be there.

"Sister, Master will be all right, will he be all right?" The little boy stood beside him trying not to shed tears, his eyes turned into walnuts from crying, and his hair was messed up.

It's really pitiful, I should have been terrified, the only master I could rely on collapsed without warning, but I couldn't do anything.

"It's going to be fine. Don't worry, we will definitely find a way, boy." Bai Yuan looked at him and couldn't help but comfort him, then stretched out his hand to gently smooth his hair.

Xiao Zheng glanced at the two of them silently, but did not speak.

The old man has been released from the previous pain, and now he has fallen into a drowsy sleep, and even his breathing has become much more stable.

Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at his face and hands covered with age spots.

It can be felt, although it is very faint, although it should not exist, but it can be felt from him that there is a trace of the breath belonging to the holy religion.

But due to the poor imitation, that pure breath was also infinitely distorted, to the point where he couldn't fully perceive it.

Master, what have you done in the past five years, and where are you now?

Have you found the legendary man?Have you figured out the true meaning of the legend?

The question was hidden in his heart, when Bai Yuan raised his head to look over, Xiao Zheng naturally showed a comforting smile.

Xiao Zheng didn't know how to say this, and Bai Yuan didn't need to know these things about the holy religion.

It's not necessary, and I don't think it's necessary.

As long as Bai Yuan is his master, his... is fine.
