5256 Rootless
The experience since childhood forced Zhang Shiye to understand the mentality that children of the same grade should have than the general mentality that children of the same grade should have. Children without umbrellas can only run hard. This is a creed that Zhang Shiye always knows.
Zhang Shiye ran from the village to the east to this place. It was actually easy to run back in the direction he came.
However, Zhang Shiye was young and didn't know much, not to mention that it was already late now, so Zhang Shiye could not find a way home, so he had to run around aimlessly alone.
Zhang Shiye didn't know how long he had been running, and there was no familiar feeling along the way, which means that he didn't find the way he came, so Zhang Shiye was a little tired.
Zhang Shiye simply stopped leaving, sat down on a stone on the side of the road, quietly admiring the moonlight.
"It's already late at night, why are you here alone?" A middle-aged man's voice suddenly came from a distance, which sounded very kind and didn't feel any danger.
However, the originally quiet earth suddenly sounded the sound of people talking. Zhang Shiye, who was immersed in the moonlight, was shocked and stood up quickly and looked in the direction where the sound came.
It was very dark and I couldn't see what kind of person was talking, but the man was slowly walking towards Zhang Shiye.
Zhang Shiye, who has been excluded since childhood, feels very weak in security. Even if the man's voice sounds malice, Zhang Shiye still raised his vigilance. If he is a bad person, he must fight back.
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." The man finally got close enough that both sides could see each other's face clearly. Seeing the child's appearance, the man smiled and said in a very kind tone.
"Ha!" Zhang Shiye remembered that his mother said that she could not trust strangers easily. She suddenly came to talk to her in this wilderness and probably was a bad person. Zhang Shiye rushed up and punched the man in the stomach.
"Ah!" The man probably didn't react. He didn't expect the child to suddenly attack him. Before he could think so much, he was punched and his stomach suddenly hurt and he almost couldn't stand firm.
"What do you want to do? I tell you that I'm not easy to mess with!" Zhang Shiye deliberately pretended to be aggressive and stared at the man in front of him viciously and said, gritting his teeth.
"I'm not too young at such a young age. I've given me such a big gift. Why is this child so angry?" The man was not angry after recovering, but returned to his kind appearance and said with a smile.
In that man's opinion, this is just a child's fight and it's not worth getting angry. If you compete with a child, it would be wrong for you. Moreover, it is a good thing for the child to have such a sense of prevention, which means that this is a smart child.
"Hmph, don't get close to me. I'm not that stupid. I warn you to stay away from me, otherwise I won't blame you for being rude!" Facing the man's smile as always, Zhang Shiye could not trust him. He kept not changing his previous skepticism and raised his fist and continued.
"Hahaha." The man did not answer directly, but suddenly burst into laughter. Perhaps the child in front of him looked a little funny, maybe this was the child's cuteness.
"Why are you laughing at? I didn't joke with you!" Zhang Shiye felt that he seemed to have been insulted. This is the shadow left by the people in the village since he was a child.
After Zhang Shiye finished speaking, he clenched his fists again and rushed towards the man, preparing to punch him again to teach him how disrespectful he was to him.
However, Zhang Shiye is still young and lacks strength and speed. An adult can completely block it. He was hit before but unexpectedly, and he had no time to react.
This time, when the man hit him in front of him, he had enough time to react and naturally would not be injured so easily. He directly stretched out his right hand and grabbed Zhang Shiye and hit him at him.
"Hahaha, you kid is so interesting. I decided to accept you as your disciple!" The man smiled to the sky, as if he was amused by the kid like this. He likes his personality very much.
"Who wants to be your apprentice is beautiful." Zhang Shiye didn't give the other party at all, and said directly, his tone was very arrogant, and he did not feel a little awe because the other party caught his punch.
"I even insist on accepting you as my disciple." The man continued to laugh, probably because the more the child said that, the more interested he was in the child.
The man's name is Wugen. He once practiced on the top of the light, but later went down the mountain and wandered around the world. He became a wandering swordsman, running around alone.
Wugen has been gifted since childhood, and has been practicing at the top of Guangming for many years and has a strong strength far exceeding most people. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a peerless master. In addition, he has been wandering in the world for so many years and has accumulated a lot of practical experience. He is definitely a master among masters.
The reason why I am interested in Zhang Shiye is because Zhang Shiye has a very similar personality to himself. Seeing this child is like seeing himself when he was a child, he feels particularly intimate.
After wandering outside alone for so many years, I will inevitably feel empty and lonely. If I could have a little apprentice following me and talking to me at any time, wouldn’t it be a very happy thing?
"I don't want it!" Zhang Shiye said proudly with his head raised, and after that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
"You go, I will let you sit on my apprentice sooner or later." Wugen smiled and said.
Zhang Shiye did not continue to answer, turned around and left, while Wugen followed him quietly.
Zhang Shiye kept walking forward, looking back from time to time, probably confirming whether Wugen was following him.
Wugen's ability is profound, so how could he be easily noticed? Wugen, who has been following behind, saw Zhang Shiye turning his head from time to time to confirm whether he was following him, and became even more interested in taking this disciple.
Most children of this age are not as mature as Zhang Shiye, and are not as smart as one-tenth of him. If he is his apprentice, he will definitely do a good job.
Zhang Shiye walked until he was sure that he was not followed behind him, and then stopped. He once again found a big stone on the side of the road, sat on it, and admired the moonlight.
