There was already a servant waiting anxiously for the two little ones at the gate. When he saw them return, he quickly welcomed them and said,"Oh my, my young master, you're finally back. Old Master has been waiting for you in the hall for a long time. It seems like he has something important to announce.”
"Brother Spring, don't make a mountain out of a molehill to scare people. Daddy dotes on brother the most and won't be angry.”When Little Liding returned home, he deliberately imitated those scholars and cupped his hands with a smile, looking like a little adult. The Lu family was considered a wealthy family in Jiaxing. They were born in such a noble family, so some etiquette was inevitable from childhood.
"Hehe…Alright, stop pretending. I feel awkward!”The older child laughed and patted the small tripod, then crossed the threshold and walked into the courtyard. Brother Spring and the small tripod followed closely behind.
As soon as he entered, he heard a charming woman say,"Yuan 'er is back, come and greet daddy and old boxer He.”In the middle of the hall sat a middle-aged man in his forties and an old man in his sixties. The woman who spoke was standing beside the middle-aged man.
"This child pays his respects to father and old boxer He.”The child cupped his hands and bowed to his father and Fighter He, then stood aside and waited for his father to lecture him. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart,[I've been in this world for two years, but I'm still not used to this kind of etiquette.]
Lu Changzong nodded and turned to Old Fighter He,"This is my son, Lu Zhanyuan."
Old Fighter He smiled kindly," Haha…not bad, not bad. Your son has excellent root bone and is smart. He is a good material for martial arts."”
"Alas, it's a pity that Yuan 'er doesn't seem to be interested in martial arts. Since he was four years old, he has liked to study some Zhouyi medical skills, Sanskrit Buddhism, Taoist classics, and so on. Now that he has reached the age to practice martial arts, no matter what, he has to learn some martial arts so that he won't lose his life in the future.”Lu Changzong's face was full of regret.
Lu Zhanyuan stood at the side and pursed his lips in his heart. He was Lu Yuanba in his previous life. How could a person as combative as him not be interested in martial arts? In his previous life, Lu Yuanba was a warmonger, so he was naturally obsessed with martial arts. He also liked martial arts novels and television shows. As a famous martial artist, Jin Yong was naturally his first choice. He just didn't expect to have the opportunity to come to the martial arts world that he had once envied. When he first came here, he thought that his current name was just a coincidence. He actually had the same name as the " Heartless Man " Lu Zhanyuan from the " Condor Heroes ". However, once, when his father was telling him about the Jianghu people, he actually mentioned the Five Uniques of the World in the Sword Competition at Mount Hua. Lu Changzong, who was full of admiration, did not notice that the four-year-old Lu Zhanyuan's saliva had soaked his chest.
Combined with Li Mochou's age in the Condor Heroes, Lu Zhanyuan should be about the same age as Guo Jing. In that case, he should be in the world of the Legend of the Condor Heroes. When Lu Yuanba found out that he had come to the world of the Condor Heroes, he was filled with yearning for the hot-blooded Jianghu and coveted the top martial arts manuals. The reason why he did not like martial arts was that he disdained the saber techniques passed down in his family. Even though he had never practiced internal energy in his previous life, he could tell that the saber techniques were ordinary. If he practiced the third-rate internal art passed down in his family, wouldn't he be killing himself? Furthermore, his studies of Buddhism, Taoism, Sanskrit, and medicine were all for the sake of preparing for the future top-notch secret manuals. As the saying goes,'prepare for a rainy day.' Chances were always left for those who were prepared. This principle was known to all in his previous life. He did not believe that top-notch secret manuals could be understood by just anyone. For example, the Black Wind Duo Demons were even the disciples of Old Evil Huang. They had practiced the Nine Yin Sutra in a mess, and Mei Chaofeng had even paralyzed his legs from practicing it.
If he wanted to learn top-notch martial arts, he had to know the acupoints of the human body. He could not show his interest in martial arts, so he could only start with medical skills. Also, the Nine Yin Sutra was in Sanskrit, and the Nine Yang Sutra was also in the Sanskrit Lankaya Sutra. How could he not learn Sanskrit? As for the women in the world of Condor Shooting, Lu Yuanba had been busy calculating the secret manuals and martial arts for the past two years and had not considered them. Besides, he was only six years old now. He was busy pretending to be young, so he did not dare to show too much.
"Hehe…It's alright. Although the world is not very peaceful now, it doesn't mean that one has to practice high martial arts to protect themselves. Since you have entrusted Yuan Er to me, I will definitely teach him strictly and not let you down.”Old Fighter He cupped his hands and laughed.
"Yuan 'er, hurry up and greet Master. He is a Shaolin disciple. It is your great fortune to have you as his disciple. You must study hard in the future, or I will not forgive you!”Lu Changzong pretended to be serious.
This was how the feudal society was like. Heaven, earth, the monarch, and the teacher were all related to each other. Confucianism was too serious. Parents invited their teachers home without even saying hello, and they did not even ask for the opinions of the people involved. Lu Zhanyuan was originally very unwilling to acknowledge this old man as his master, but when he heard that he was a Shaolin layman disciple, it was a different matter. This was a super shortcut to sneak into Shaolin Temple. He hurriedly bent down and kowtowed. As the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the romans do. Although Lu Zhanyuan was unwilling, he could not avoid kowtowing. Who asked him to enter this society?
"Nephew, please wait and bow!" Old Fighter He stopped Lu Zhanyuan who was about to kneel,""Hehe…although I've taught you, it's not appropriate for me to ask you to join my sect. After all, your family's saber art is not inferior to my fist art, so there's no need for you to become my disciple.”
"How can this be? It was only right for Yuan 'er to become his disciple. Why not? Could it be that Elder Brother thinks that there is something wrong with Yuan Er?”Lu Changzong's expression changed slightly as he said anxiously.
"Hehe…Brother, you worry too much. Although we are as close as brothers and don't care about the gains and losses between us, your Lu family is also a prestigious family in the pugilistic world. Your family's martial arts are not inferior to mine. Although we don't care about reputation and only want our child to have another skill, we have to take into account what outsiders say. We can't let people say that your Lu family's martial arts are not good enough and let your child take someone else as his master, right?”Old Fighter He stroked his beard and explained.
" This…" Lu Changzong looked at Lu Zhanyuan with a troubled expression. He hesitated and wanted to say something. Although he still wanted his son to learn more skills, he had to be careful since it involved the Lu family's reputation.
"Hehe…don't worry, my dear brother. I like Yuan 'er. Even if he doesn't want to be my disciple, I will teach him fist techniques.”How could Old Fighter He not see through Lu Changzong's thoughts? He didn't mind and smiled as he made a promise to ease his heart.
"In that case, thank you, elder brother! Yuan 'er, hurry up and thank Uncle He!”Lu Changzong saw that his goal had been achieved and that his family's reputation was not damaged. He was happy but did not show it and quickly asked Lu Zhanyuan to thank him.
"Thank you, Uncle He!" Lu Zhanyuan cupped his hands together and thought to himself, This change of address is really fast. Just now, he was urging me to call him master. Now that it involves my family's reputation, he is urging me to call him uncle, as if he is afraid that he will go back on his word. "Although Uncle He doesn't want me to acknowledge you as my master, I will still treat you as my master."”Lu Zhanyuan thought to himself that he should say a few more nice words to please him first so that it would benefit him in the future.
" Haha…" Old Fighter He stroked his beard and laughed heartily,""I didn't expect Yuan 'er to already know how to respect his teacher at such a young age. Good, good, good. Brother, I really envy you for giving birth to a good son.”
"No, no, don't praise him too much, elder brother, lest he becomes arrogant.”Lu Changzong waved his hand modestly, but he was still very happy. After all, the person being praised was his son.
Lu Zhanyuan stood at the side and was sweating profusely. He knew what kind of person he was. Although he was not extremely evil, he was still far from respecting his teacher. In his previous life, he was a triad boss.
"Alright, alright, the two of you don't need to be so polite anymore. Since the matter has already been discussed, I will go prepare lunch. I will take my leave first." Auntie Lu saw that if they continued to be polite, it would seem like they were strangers, so she quickly came out to smooth things over.
After lunch, Lu Zhanyuan used the advantage of being a child to pester Old Fighter He to tell him about Jianghu, but he obviously had other intentions. Perhaps it was a common problem with old people, but Old Fighter He happily talked about his glorious achievements in his youth. When he talked about the sword competition at Mount Hua, he was not as full of admiration as Lu Changzong. Instead, he said disdainfully,"If it wasn't for the fact that the Shaolin Temple had been sealed for more than a hundred years, how could there be only five unique skills in the Huashan Sword Competition?”
Lu Zhanyuan's eyes lit up. He thought that he had finally gotten to the main point. He quickly asked,""Does the Shaolin Temple have masters like the Five Uniques?”
