Dada tick tick... The callused big hand moved like flying, and the beads of the black copper abacus slid up and down the pole, making a series of crisp sounds.

The sun is scorching, and the Giant Rock Harbor is still lively, and there is a small dilapidated tavern in the remote area of ​​the adjacent woods. This is definitely not a high-end place. The moldy bamboo walls, the oil stains everywhere, the few tables and chairs, and there are only two people... In addition, the towering trees around it block the sun, the light in the tavern is dark, and mice are rushing to feed by the wine tanks in the corner of the wall. Compared to Zhang Kai Tavern, this nameless shop is really a hundred times dirty.

Although the tavern indicated that it was only doing business at night, Xin Lie was very doubtful if anyone would come to drink. After all, there were no less than ten tavern restaurants nearby, but seeing the dark red blood that could not be washed off, maybe this was not a place to drink.

Xin Lie looked at the counter again. The middle-aged boss sitting behind was sorting out the account book, and his mind was on the abacus, as if he couldn't see him.

After bringing him here and saying a few words to the man, Captain Baru left. He didn't want to be annoyed after staying for a long time. He just said to Xin Lie before leaving: "That guy is very skilled and can teach you what you want to learn, but his temper is very bad and his mouth is very cheap. You have to bear it! Study hard and don't underestimate you for your youth."

Xin Lie didn't know what the middle-aged boss' real name was, but according to the captain's previous introduction, "Just call him Luhu." Luhu was once the first fighting player of the Jingu. Later, he left the ship and now runs this tavern. However, he was about to re-board the Jingu and go to the south to spend the winter. They didn't like the winter of Giant Rocks and left in about half a month. It was also considered that Xin Lie was lucky. During this period, he learned as much as he could.

"What do you want to learn?" After a while, the hunched tiger seemed to have finally finished a calculation, and the hoarse voice interrupted the sound of beads colliding.

Xin Lie immediately walked over: "Learn fighting skills."

Baru said that the Huhu was a bad friend of his childhood, but the two of them looked like their peers at all. The Huhuhu had grown a little older than the captain. His hair was thin and white, his face was withered, and he was slightly hunched with his back, and he coughed a few times from time to time. His tall figure had no scary muscles, so he could only be described as thin. His unscrupulous eyes shaved like a sinister gangster, making people feel uncomfortable.

"What did you learn to do?" Luhu asked again, and Xin Lie replied sincerely: "Enhance your own strength." Luhu continued to ask, "What should I do to strengthen my strength?" Xin Lie was stunned and said seriously: "Mr. Luhu, yesterday I said something very reasonable, 'Heaven moves forward, gentlemen strive for self-improvement." Luhu laughed and filled with disdainful mockery, "Stop telling me any shitty truths. Do you want to take the exam for a warrior?"

Xin Lie remained silent, and the huhu didn't care about him. He slowly stood up and said in a sandy voice: "Yes, who doesn't want to be a warrior? I have seen too many people like you who want to become a warrior and become rich from now on..."

"I wear good clothes, live in good houses, eat good food, and fuck all kinds of beauties! There are a group of servants following me when I go in and out, and I can walk sideways. One word makes people live, and one word makes people die!"

Seeing Xin Lie frowned and opened his mouth to say something, Luhu snorted coldly and grabbed it: "You don't need to admit it! Who doesn't want to do this? Who doesn't want to be powerful, have a mansion, and have a beauty!? Well, cough cough..." He was a little anxious. He coughed uncomfortable for a while, and gradually calmed down, and his face also had a trace of memory. He laughed at himself: "I left home with Baru and I to Juyan, and I were also full of confidence and fantasy, but the result was?"

He looked around the dirty surroundings and made a scammering smile: "This is the result. When they saw the world, they knew that they were actually a bunch of the cheapest cow shit! If they couldn't pass the warrior exam, they couldn't even go back to their hometown. They could only stay in the giant rock and wait for death, without any hope."

Luhu was talking about himself and mocking him. Xin Lie was not angry. He just looked at his resentment and jealousy and couldn't help but refute: "Captain Baru is very optimistic."

"Baru can't even keep his beloved woman. He is optimistic? Do you think he's really happy if he smiles foolishly all day long? Hahaha!"

As if he heard the funnyest jokes in the world, the huhu laughed so hard that even his arched back and forth, and his laughter was very harsh. Xin Lie didn't know their past and was speechless for a moment. After finally stopping, the huhu sneered: "For so many years, Baru has only brought you here to teach me. He put all his hopes on you. Boy, did the thief tell you that you will become a warrior in the future. When fucking a woman, fuck him more? Hahaha..."

"The captain has never said that. And what you said, what you said, is not what I want to walk sideways." Xin Lie's eyes did not shine and fear. He was not angry with his words, but something to tell others and encourage himself. He said heavily: "I hate those who walk sideways the most."

"That move is too many people you hate." Luhu curled his lips and put his abacus on it, mocking him: "And one day in the future, you will even hate yourself. If you can become a warrior, don't tell me, you will live a harder life than you are now? People, this is how they hate the powerful and the other wants to be them; once they become, they will do more ruthlessly than they do..."

Although the huhu's mouth was so vicious, his words were not to be tantrums. No matter whether this was an introductory test or not, Xin Lie pondered. Why did he come to Juyan? Is it just to live a good life?

Many thoughts flashed in my mind, and I had thoughts for a long time. Xin Lie brewed some words and said calmly: "Yes, I don't want to live a mediocre life. I want to be successful, live some rich and exciting life, have the ability to not be bullied, want to travel around and see the world well! More importantly, I will not hide it from you, my parents are wandering outside, I want to find them and reunite with my family! So, I want to become a warrior."

"But, is there anything wrong with this?"

Xin Lie asked back, looking at the hunched tiger with narrowed eyes, he continued to ask excitedly: "If I had become a warrior through my own efforts, wouldn't I be proud of it? Why do you judge that if I was lucky enough to become a warrior, I would definitely become a person who wants to enjoy himself or a trash who walks sideways? Why do I judge that I want to become a warrior in order to bully the people's power, why can't it be, and can stop the evil people from bullying the people's power!?"

"I hope to be able to strengthen myself, pursue my ambitions, and pursue my dreams. Sir, tell me, is there anything wrong?"

Facing the heroic young face, listening to these loud words, the hunched tiger face was expressionless, this kid's mouth was quite good at speaking...

"Yes, who doesn't have some dreams? But children, those should be left to dreams." The huhu suddenly sneered and walked slowly towards him, saying, "You must know that the so-called dreams are just used to make some successful people praise themselves; not to numb yourself to some losers. If you succeed, that is a dream; if you fail, that is shit."

"It is definitely not the case! Maybe everyone's dreams are different. Maybe some people succeed and some fail, but they all work hard for their dreams! I think that even if people with real ambitions hide it in their hearts, they will definitely not dislike it!"

After opening the conversation, Xin Lie couldn't stop, especially the books on the ship gave him a lot of inspiration, and then said, "I read less, but I know one thing, 'The three armies can seize the commander, but every man cannot seize the ambition.' I agree very much. Everyone can, and they should have firm beliefs, right? Dreams are dreams, and they will never change because of anything! I am just like that."

"You have done a lot of**..." Luhu shook his head slightly. Even though he had always been poisonous, he did not refute Xin Lie's words, and only sneered: "I advise you to save effort and not waste your efforts."

Xin Lie said calmly: "No matter what you say, I will definitely take the assessment."

"You don't know what you are going to face!" The huhu suddenly roared, as if he remembered the past, and was in anger in an instant. He gasped and sneered: "Do you want to know? The assessment method is changing year by year, becoming more and more severe year by year. It's useless to say it. Cow shit is always cow shit."

"I didn't intend to inquire." Xin Lie also felt a little angry in his heart, and he looked at Luohu and said, "Sir, I came here to learn how to fight with you, not how to fight. Do you teach me?"

"It's also a bit of a temper, not bad." Luhu gradually straightened his body, his back was not hunched at all, and a fierce light appeared in Wushen's eyes. He waved to Xin Lie: "Come and hit me." Xin Lie immediately raised his eyebrows, and Luhu said lightly: "Take out all your abilities and hit me with all your strength, so that I know what to teach you. If you beat me, what else can I teach you?"

Xin Lie nodded, his heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably. He seemed to like this feeling of fighting more and more...

The hall of the tavern was empty enough. The two of them came to the open space in the middle. Xin Lie walked around the huhu for several times. He had no idea of ​​his specific strength at all. He only knew that "the skills were first-class." But seeing that he was lean muscles, Xin Lie felt that he still had the advantage of strength, so he decided to adopt the battle strategy of killing Cha Jun!

"Drink—" Xin Lie suddenly punched him straight and tried the depth first!

However, he did not expect that the hunchhu seemed to be able to predict what happened in a few seconds, and all the routines could not escape the gray eyes. He quickly defended himself, tripped away, and grabbed Xin Lie's shoulders with both hands, bang! He fell down with a trip, and then said lightly, looking at Xin Lie who was stunned on the ground, "Slow, too slow."

"The punch is too slow! The legs are too tight! The side is too slow! The reaction is too slow! The avoidance is too slow! The rise is too slow! The slow--"

Bang, bang, bang, a few bangs, the muffled sound of heavy objects hitting the ground in the tavern, and sweat had already ticked down, soaking the worn-out floor.

Stumbling, holding legs, and falling over shoulder! The huhu was picking up Xin Lie while laughing leisurely: "You are too weak and useless! With your level, you are still participating in the martial arts assessment. How dare you say any dreams, and you laugh so much! You should go back to your hometown to pick up cow shit! Why can you live until now? You should have been ashamed to death! It's not enough to have strength! Fighting is not plowing the field! It's too slow, landing-"

Bang! He was thrown to the floor again, Xin Lie gritted his teeth in pain and gasped. He originally thought Cha Jun was a master of boxing, but if the evil man fought with the huhu, he would not be able to walk three moves! And he was not the opponent of the huhuhu...

This fight will not take any advantage. The soldier's tricks are so sensible that he can't show it... A thought flashed by, and Xin Lie's hands, who was about to support him, relaxed his strength, and his body fell on the floor again. He half-contained his eyes, mixed with sweat, swallowed his breath, and his feet trembled a few times, but he was unable to get up again.

"So unbeatable?" The huhu's smile became more and more contemptuous, and his fists relaxed, he walked up slowly, shook his head and sighed: "Hey poor, dream, hehe, hahaha--"

With all his strength, he burned the boat and broke the cauldron! Xin Lie opened his eyes wide open, and jumped up. While the hunched tiger was completely unprepared, he leaned over and rushed forward, smashing his fist towards his abdomen, "Ah——"

Crack! There were bursts of scorching pain in the abdomen, and the eyes of the hunchhu immediately changed, like an angry beast, pretending to die? Fighting? This kid has some potential... Looking at Xin Lie, he retreated and stood still in a breath. The hunchhu was not in a hurry to attack, and said softly: "Yes, at the beginning, you could only get one round; now you can get three rounds, and I punched me just now."

"In ordinary people, few people can hurt me, you are very strong..." The huhu gently rubbed his abdomen, clenched his hands into fists again, and said, "I heard from Balu that you read the fragment of the "Seven Books of the Martial Arts", then you should have read a sentence in it: 'It is as fast as the wind, its sprint is as slow as the forest, it is as raging as fire, it is not moving as the mountain, it is hard to know as the yin, it moves as thunder as trembling-'"

In an instant, a light flashed in the hunched tiger's eyes, like a tiger that was out of the gate, making it impossible to associate him with the hunched uncle who was full of resentment. Before he finished speaking, he had already punched out and reached Xin Lie's throat in an instant!

This speed! This momentum! Xin Lie's heart suddenly jumped, as if he was about to jump out of his chest. This was a feeling of life being on the verge of crisis, just like the moment when Cha Jun attacked his head with a stone!

At this time, his neck could even touch the rough calluses on the hunched tiger's fist. If it really hits it, his neck might be smashed. This is, it's like thunder...

"Fenglin, volcano, Yinlei, as long as you do these six things, you are enough to be called a Martial Saint. Then others should hate you." The huhu's tone returned to mocking, with his fist back slightly hunched, as if he was breathing a sigh of relief. He coughed a few times and said, "Of course, when you meet a famous martial artist, you are just a pile of cow shit. If others kill you, you will get dirty. However, fighting skills will never be garbage..."

He closed his eyes, as if recalling the life-and-death battles one after another, and said, "An ant fights with an ant, and an ant who knows fighting skills wins; an elephant fights with an elephant, and an elephant who knows fighting skills wins. Even if you become a civilian warrior, your strength will be more powerful, fighting skills will still be fighting skills."

Xin Lie nodded seriously. Whether it is civilians or warriors, they are all people who are heading to the sky and feet on the ground. The same should be true for close combat. He bowed to the hunched tiger and said sincerely: "Sir, please teach me!"

"Don't show off this bird-like appearance. You are the future Martial Saint. I can't be your master." Luhu sneered. Although he was mean, this kid was indeed an uncarved piece of uncooked jade. He said: "I have taught you that the momentum is the best. I will teach you some fighting movements, ways of exerting force, and fighting skills. My fighting skills have no name, and it is not a faction. It is the thing I have accumulated over the years with fights."

"Do you know what are the vital and weaknesses of the human body? How to hit them? Do you know how to exert force so that punches will be faster and heavier? Do you know, if you fight back when you are controlled? Do you know..."

Listening to the words of the huhu, Xin Lie was completely immersed in the spirit, and another door that he had longed for was slowly opening. He silently remembered every sentence that might benefit his life. A strong force does not mean that he can exert all his strength. Hitting a vital punch is equivalent to hitting ten punches in other places...

With the sound of breaking wind with fists and feet, teaching and question-and-answer continued to be carried out in the tavern. The sun gradually moved westward and the moon rose, and the tavern opened to do business.

...

Under the bright moon, the cold sea breeze blew the huge rock harbor and blew into the cabin of the Jingu ground floor through the window. In the narrow and clean room, the oil lamp lights were floating, and a solid sandbag that was hung was shaking back and forth.

A black-haired boy kept waving his fists, his naked upper body bulged with strong muscles, and sweat slid down like rain; the sea breeze blew, turning up the wrinkled pages of a broken book in the pile of books on the wooden table.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang...!
