As for the origin of the name Di Que Lame Tiger, it was because Kuangtu Yan had seriously injured his right foot in successive battles, leaving him disabled. Because it is caused the day after tomorrow, it is called earth deficiency. Because the sword technique he practiced was the Five Tiger Gate-breaking Sword, he was nicknamed Lame Tiger.
During the chat, Jiang Fan also learned about the origin of the camel lion.
This old man is not from the Chinese ethnic group, but from the Western Regions. He was born into a slave. But he was a powerful fighter in the Western Region. Later, he followed the caravan to the Central Plains. On the way, he was injured by a gangster. The master disliked it and gave it to Ren Yazi to sell it.
By chance, he was met by Zhang Zaifu. Zhang Zhiling saw that he was a good-looking big man, but he was covered in ulcers and was dying. He bought it out of sympathy and sent someone to take good care of him, and finally recovered.
After that, Zhang Zhiling discovered that he was a rare martial arts prodigy, so he secretly invited masters to teach him martial arts, and also found the Lion King's secret knowledge as a gift to him.
The camel lion lived up to his high expectations and made rapid progress, and finally became a saint at the age of forty.
Tuo Shi has been following Zhang Zaifu since he was twenty-four years old. Now he is eighty-five years old. He has been loyal for sixty-one years and would die for Zhang Zhiling.
Tuo Shi had long forgotten his Western name, so Zhang Zhiling gave him a Central Plains name, Zhang Tuo.
Because of his Heavenly Saint's hunchback, it became even more obvious after practicing the Lion King's secret skills, so he was given the title of Hunchback Lion.
The crippled camel lion in the sky and the lame tiger in the earth are the two super masters around Zhang Zhiling. They have followed him around the world for decades, and they are loyal and never complain. Speaking of it, Zhang Zaifu felt that they had given up most of their lives because of their ideals, and he always felt that he owed them a lot.
"It's a shame, I've been working hard all my life, but I've always accomplished nothing. It's tiring for everyone and myself -"
Jiang Fan disagreed: "Why did the master say this? Not to mention that the two seniors were absolutely willing. Even the disciples believed that the master had made outstanding contributions to the world. After thousands of years, who else can do what the master has done and become the prime minister of the five countries?" ?”
"It's all a false name. All my life, I just want the world to be unified and the people to be happy, but in the end I never got what I wanted."
Jiang Fan shook his head and said: "Master, that's not what you said. Doesn't this world just need people like you to work hard for it, and the people also need people like you to seek happiness for them. I want to ask, who can guarantee that everything will be successful? Knowing that there are difficulties but facing them, knowing that you can't do something but doing it, is a sign of great courage. In my disciple's view, success or failure should be put aside, but anyone who works hard should be respected by the world."
Zhang Zhiling chuckled and said, "You will feel relieved for the master."
Jiang Fan said: "This is not reassuring. You are not alone. You represent a group of people in the world. A group of people who worry about the world first and rejoice after the world's happiness. In the eyes of my apprentice, your courage and deeds cannot be kept low-key. , and it must be publicized in a high-profile manner, which will definitely directly inspire countless latecomers to follow suit and fight for the great cause of the world."
Zhang Zhiling also made him feel refreshed. This kid always had the ability to confuse people. He was aroused by him in Linjiang Pavilion, and it is the same now.
The sentence "worry first when the world is worried, and then rejoice when the world is happy" simply hits people's hearts.
And what he represents is not himself, but an example for the world, which touches Zhang Zaifu's heart. Yes, what if there are ten Zhang Zhiling, a hundred, or a thousand Zhang Zhiling in the world?
For a moment, Lao Zaifu's heart surged with pride.
"Boy, I have to say that the old man asked you to instigate me again. Anyway, since I have accepted you as my disciple, let's go and see the country you want."
Jiang Fan smiled and cupped his hands: "I dare you to invite me, master, to paint my eyebrows for this country."
——
A few days later, the group came to the border of Shanxi and Xia.
On this day, Jiang Fan was preparing a meal for his master. The staple food was barbecue, and he also made some fruit juice to make a drink.
Over the past few days, Zhang Zaifu has long been conquered by this boy's cooking skills. After two meals, the old man refused to enter the restaurant again and always asked Jiang Fan to cook it himself.
Lao Zaifu praised more than once that there are people in the world who understand the essence of gourmet food so well. He even said that if ranked in terms of gourmet food, Jiang Fan can definitely be ranked first in the world. Not to mention Xuanyuan Invincible, even the Three Immortals of Taihua and the Five Elders of Taiyue , and even the Kunlun Earth Immortals are hard to come by.
Jiang Fan is quite a stinker, he finally has the best in the world, right?
However, after careful consideration, Mr. Jiang, who was always on the wrong side, felt that not only was he the best in the world in terms of food, he was also the best in at least two other things.
The first one is that the wife is the best in the world. Who dares to be the empress’s husband?
The second one... is a little hard to say, but who dares to say that laziness can compare to this young master?
Therefore, Mr. Jiang believes that he should have three bests in the world, collectively known as the three bests in the world, and Jiang Xiaoyao, the three bests, will be fine.
Only when he heard the two No. 1s in the world behind him, Zhang Zaifu was speechless and almost kicked him into the gutter.
I didn't do well in the meat test, and a sloppy scholar ran over.
Jiang Fan glared at him angrily: "I can't see you when fighting, but eating comes first."
The sloppy scholar sneered: "I'm going to do some work, and then I have to track down those great masters. It's a lot of hard work..."
Jiang Fan snorted and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Zhang Zaifu looked at Yaoguang thoughtfully.
Yaoguang saw this and stepped forward to salute: "Under the command of King Xiaoyao, Yaoguang has met the old prime minister."
"Yao Guang..." Zhang Zaifu looked at him: "Yao Guang is one of the seven stars of the Big Dipper."
Jiang Fan chuckled: "Have you never seen this person before?"
Zhang Zaifu said calmly: "Between his eyebrows, he looks a bit like an old friend."
Yaoguang laughed and said: "Public face, public face."
Jiang Fan secretly scolded him for being a stinker. Who has such a handsome face? You are definitely ranked among the top three handsome middle-aged and elderly men.
"Have you found those people?"
Yaoguang said: "Ah, I followed him for several days, but he was still discovered later. I had no choice but to evacuate. That old monk is really a bit outrageous."
"Old monk?" Jiang Fan was startled.
Yaoguang said: "Yes, three of them are bald donkeys, especially the one with the head. He is old and haggard, looking like a mummy."
Jiang Fan's expression changed and he looked at Zhang Zaifu: "Did you talk about the dead wood Zen skill that day?"
Zhang Zaifu nodded: "Yes, the person used is indeed the Dead Wood Zen Technique, at least a Jiazi cultivation level."
Jiang Fan frowned slightly and thought deeply: "Withered Wood Zen Technique...Shaking Light, who in Buddhism today practices this technique?"
Yaoguang said: "This technique has been sitting for decades, and it looks like a dead tree. I have never heard of anyone practicing it throughout the ages. If there is, I am afraid it is only the eminent monks of the northern and southern sects."
Jiang Fan remembered that when he was pretending to be a young master in Dafo Mountain, there was indeed an old monk named Cijue who looked like a dead tree and had profound cultivation. At that time, my uncle said that this old man had better luck than Master Cihang.
Could it be...
Jiang Fan's eyes turned cold. It seemed that he was right. The one responsible for the trouble was indeed the Demon Slayer Alliance?
Jiang Fan was a little puzzled that the Demon-Slaying Alliance acted like this. The Empress had just defeated Lu Yan and her reputation was at the height of her power. It was a bit strange that the Demon-Slaying Alliance still dared to act like this.
