Chapter 9: First Chance

However, eating at other people's homes is still very reserved, especially for a person like Zeng Kui who has a big appetite.

Uncle Jiu didn't just ask Zeng Kui to come for dinner on the spur of the moment. He asked Wen Caitou to prepare twice as much food early this morning. Considering Zeng Kui's body, he would definitely eat a lot.

Zeng Kui didn't know what happened while he was eating. Usually, his appetite is larger than that of ordinary people.

But today he couldn't eat enough. He felt like his stomach was like a bottomless pit. After six bowls of rice, he wasn't even half full.

He really wanted to eat all the food on the table, but his self-cultivation prevented him from doing so, so he could only resist the desire to eat and put down his rice bowl.

"Zeng Kui, you must be full. Don't be polite here." Uncle Jiu said to Zeng Kui.

"I've already eaten. Thank you Uncle Jiu for your hospitality." Zeng Kui replied.

Uncle Jiu looked at Zeng Kui while holding the bowl, and then asked another question he had asked last night.

"Zeng Kui, are you sure you haven't practiced kung fu?"

"Uh... I'm pretty sure I've never practiced martial arts." Zeng Kui replied sincerely.

The only "martial arts" he had ever been exposed to was probably [Tai Chi] he learned in physical education class in college, and until the end of the physical education class, he could not finish a set of Tai Chi neatly.

"I think your martial arts talent is very good, but you are too old." Uncle Jiu said with some pity, it would be great if Zeng Kui was his disciple.

Zeng Kui has great talent and a very good personality and will be a very good apprentice.

However, age is a big limitation for practicing martial arts and Taoism. Most people can only achieve success if they start from a young age.

Of course, this is not inevitable. There are also people who become monks halfway and still achieve great results.

That's just a very small part. It takes a very big chance to reach that level. Ordinary people don't even have to think about it.

Just like Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng, who have been by his side since childhood, they have not achieved anything yet.

Although in the eyes of Uncle Jiu, Zeng Kui is a talented person, but compared with ordinary people, a unique martial arts wizard may exist, but he will not be the current Zeng Kui.

But we may not know for sure in the future.

"Actually, it's not too late now." Suddenly Zeng Kui said, and then looked at Uncle Jiu with eyes full of hope.

As long as Uncle Jiu gives him a signal, he will immediately kowtow and become his disciple.

But Uncle Jiu has no intention of accepting a disciple. Now Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng have given him a headache. Besides, Zeng Kui is really too old and it will be difficult for him to achieve anything even with his guidance.

Moreover, after becoming his apprentice, you will inevitably face all kinds of demons and ghosts. Scorpions are very dangerous to ordinary people.

So Uncle Jiu didn't take Zeng Kui's advice.

"Wen Cai, after dinner, go and inform Qiu Sheng to go to the Ren family. Zeng Kui, you have taken over the job of the Ren family and stayed with me for the past two days. I will tell Mr. Ren." After finishing speaking, Uncle Jiu put down the bowl.

I went to put my chopsticks away.

Zeng Kui lowered his head, this was a lost opportunity.

Becoming a disciple of Uncle Jiu is easy to say, but difficult to actually do.

Because becoming a master and accepting a disciple are not trivial matters in this era.

Uncle Jiu would not make this decision easily.

As for shamelessly begging Uncle Jiu to accept him, this kind of thing can only be thought about.

Because doing this is not 100% successful. If it fails, it will minimize Uncle Jiu's impression of him, and then there will be no chance at all.

After breakfast, Zeng Kui followed Uncle Jiu to Ren's house.

After arriving at Ren's house, Uncle Jiu was invited to the living room, and he could only stay in the yard of Ren's house. Everyone who had received money from Ren's house yesterday also gathered here.

Naturally, it will be there on Wednesday.

"Brother Kui!"

After seeing Zeng Kui on Wednesday, he quickly ran over to say hello.

"How did you sleep last night?" Zhang Zengkui asked on Wednesday. He wanted to know whether Zeng Kui was satisfied with his house.

"Very good. I have to thank Brother Sancai for what happened yesterday. I have a place to live in a foreign land." Zeng Kui patted Zhou Cai on the shoulder and said.

Next, Zeng Kui chatted with Wednesday Cai and others while waiting for the work arrangements of the Ren family.

During the chat, he led the conversation and slowly began to understand information about the world.

The imperial court, warlords, foreigners...this information made Zeng Kui a little confused. This was very different from the era when he knew the Republic of China.

Because he had not heard of the existence of the [Qing Dynasty], the current ruler of the land of China was actually the [Dawu Dynasty]. He had never heard of the [Dawu] dynasty.

Of course, the current [Dawu Dynasty] has lost complete control over the land of China. Various warlords, remnants of the previous royal family, reformers, ritualists, revolutionaries and other political parties and factions have appeared on the land of China.

These factions compete and restrict each other, and even fight each other with swords and swords, but everyone follows one principle: to ensure that the land of China is a whole.

No matter who can win the final right to rule, the land of China cannot lose an inch of land. Anyone who dares to violate this bottom line will become the enemy of everyone.

"So this is a world where history has changed." Zeng Kui thought in his heart.

No matter what kind of world this is, it is very strange to him, and his starting point is still the same.

Now he is just a very insignificant person. These things have nothing to do with him and can only be treated as fun.

Men's favorite thing when gathering together is to discuss current affairs, which makes Zeng Kui very comfortable. Of course, one thing he has to pay attention to is that he cannot believe everything these people say. Most of the information may not be consistent with the facts. After all, Renjiazhen

Just a town.

"(⊙o⊙)Wow!"

Suddenly the men all looked in one direction and let out a sound of exclamation.

Ren Tingting, who was wearing a foreign dress, walked into the courtyard. Although women wearing foreign dresses could be seen in other towns, there were no such beautiful women as Ren Tingting.

Of course, what the men looked at was not Ren Tingting's face, but her proud snow-white peaks.

Everyone present has seen many beautiful women, but they have never seen such a "bold" woman as Ren Tingting.

Ren Tingting came back from the provincial capital and was dressed very avant-garde.

However, Zeng Kui also looked at Ren Tingting for a few times and then looked away.

In his eyes, Ren Tingting was just a beautiful woman, and not much else.

He had seen too many beauties in the previous world, and Ren Tingting could only be considered above average.

The most important point is that Ren Tingting and him have nothing to do with each other, and he has no illusions about Ren Tingting.
