……
A gust of sea breeze blew past, and Bai Yifeng, who was only wearing a pair of boxers, woke up in a daze. What entered his eyes was a vast sea, except for the " island " that was about two square meters.
"Yes, it must be a dream. I'll wake up in a while."
There was nothing else…Three hours later
After slapping himself, pinching his thigh, and even peeing into the sea, Bai Yifeng finally recognized reality. He had clearly been sitting on his bed after reading the martial arts novel, enjoying the dream of flying over roofs and walking on walls, wandering the martial arts world, but he did not know how he suddenly ended up here!
"Does the system have a novice gift bag?"
"System, change the channel for me."
" System, your grandmother's leg!"
After another two hours of torment, even the small saplings on the island that looked like bean sprouts were not spared, but there was still no reaction. Bai Yifeng, who was in despair, finally stopped. He lay down and stopped moving.
After several times of fainting and waking up from hunger, it had been about two days…Bai Yifeng, who was in despair, saw a lonely boat floating over.
He didn't complain anymore. Even though a lone boat like this couldn't withstand a small wave in the sea, it was still a glimmer of hope. Perhaps he could float and meet a boat. Even if he died like this, wouldn't it be more poetic to die? He used the last bit of strength in his body to climb onto the boat…
There was a loud noise in his ears, as well as the sound of a ship approaching the shore. As far as the eye could see, it seemed like they were at a dock. The crowd was a little strange. Some of them were dressed in suits and leather shoes, with short hair. Most of them had long braids from the Qing Dynasty. Only then did Bai Yifeng take notice of himself. His hunger was gone, and he felt refreshed. He realized that he was also wearing a suit and a gentleman's hat, looking like a foreigner.
He searched his entire body. Other than some money in his suit, the only thing that was special was a short flute. It did not match the other things on his body. It looked like a jade flute, but there were traces of bamboo joints in the middle. Other than that, he could not see anything special. Bai Yifeng did not probe further.
After walking around the area, he figured out that this was probably the end of the Qing Dynasty. He had experienced the island before, so Bai Yichen did not doubt the authenticity of where he was.
" Extra! Extra! Hero Huo Yuanjia was killed by the Japanese!"
" Extra, extra! Huo Yuanjia of the Martial Arts Sect was defeated and died in the arena. He vomited blood!"
……
Bai Yifeng's IQ of 249 instantly knew where he was. How could he not learn something in this chaotic world? Since he was already here, how could he not meet Chen Zhen? He immediately got on a rickshaw and headed to Jingwu Sect. On the way, Bai Yifeng bought some things for mourning.
The Jingwu Sect was located in the future Hongkou District, not far from the Japanese's Hongkou Dojo. It was less than 20 minutes away. When he arrived at the Jingwu Sect, he saw a white cloth hanging on the door. There was no one in front of the door except for a disciple with a gloomy expression. When he saw someone visiting, he raised his head and asked,"And you are?"
Bai Yifeng cupped his fists and said," Hello, big brother. I'm Bai Yichen. I've returned from overseas. I heard that something happened to Master Huo a few days ago, so I came to pay my respects."”
The disciple was about the same age as Bai Yifeng. Seeing that he was dressed like someone of status and hearing that he was here to mourn his master, he immediately had a good impression of him. He returned the greeting and said,"Sir, please come in. I'll inform you.”
After entering the martial arts sect, the disciple asked Bai Yichen to wait for a moment before he went into the house to report,""Eldest Senior Brother, Uncle Nong, there's a gentleman who came back from abroad to pay his respects to Master.”
"The visitor is a guest, let him in."
In the middle of the mourning hall, Huo Yuanjia's posthumous photo was placed. Incense was burning and a young man in mourning clothes was kneeling in the hall. Beside him stood an uncle dressed like a councilor. There were also many disciples standing on both sides. When they saw Bai Yichen walk in, their gazes fell on him.
Bai Yifeng knew that the young man was Huo Yuanjia's son, Huo Ting 'en. The middle-aged official was the housekeeper of the Fine Martial Sect, Nong Jinsun. "I'm Bai Yifeng, a martial arts enthusiast who just returned from overseas." When I was abroad, I had long heard of Master Huo Yuanjia's fame. I never thought that I would hear the news of his unfortunate death as soon as I returned, so I specially came to pay my respects.”As he spoke, his eyes turned red."Please accept my condolences."
Bai Yifeng's sincere appearance, coupled with his neat and extraordinary suit, and the heroic spirit between his brows, gave everyone a good impression of him. Huo Ting 'en stood up and cupped his fists at him with gratitude.""Brother Bai, you're so thoughtful."
As soon as he finished speaking, a disciple walked up to him and handed him three incense sticks. He also received the gifts he had brought.
Bai Yifeng was not in a hurry to receive the incense. Before he came, he had already planned to join the Jingwu Sect. However, he had been taught by his grandfather since he was young and really hated kneeling. Hence, he said,"When I was young, I heard that Master Huo defeated the strong men of the United Kingdom and Russia overseas. From then on, I yearned for our Chinese martial arts. In fact, I came back to the country this time to learn from the Jingwu Sect.”After a pause, he said sincerely,"So, I wonder if you can let me take Master Huo as my master and let me kneel down as a disciple.”
The reason was very simple. The dead had already passed away, and kneeling was only once.
Bai Yifeng's words stunned everyone in the hall. Huo Ting 'en said anxiously,""How can this be? My father has already passed away.”
Nong Jinsun could not help but frown."Little brother, if you want to join our martial arts sect, of course we are willing. However, Huo Laosi had just left. How could he acknowledge a dead person as his master? Why don't you wait a few days? It won't be too late to come back after the funeral. The person in front of you is the new hall master of our Essence Martial Sect. When you acknowledge him as your master, you will also be considered to have joined our Essence Martial Sect.”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yifeng immediately launched a monetary attack. He took out a thick stack of pounds from his suit and said,""Please forgive me, Uncle Nong. I know this is not appropriate, but it has been my wish to become Master Huo's disciple since I was young. Even if I can't receive his teachings, even if it's just a title, I'm still very willing. This money is a gift from me as my disciple and also a little bit of my sincerity. I hope Uncle Nong and Brother Huo can help me!”
The disciples didn't know him, but Nong Jinsun was born a businessman. After some discussion, they decided to accept Huo Tingen as a disciple on his father's behalf. "I, Bai Yifeng, pay my respects to Eldest Senior Brother and Senior Brothers and Sisters.”Bai Yichen was delighted that his goal had been achieved. He quickly cupped his fists and bowed, confirming his identity. He could be considered to have settled down in the Jingwu Sect.
