"If you don't practice your sword skills well, I will spank you like this every day."
"You old guy, are you being unreasonable? If I don't practice, you say I'm lazy. But if I practice, you think I'm not practicing well."
"Stop for me..."
"I won't stop. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"You brat..., why...are you running so fast now? Old man, I...can't even catch you..."
Old Wu was panting from exhaustion. He put his hands on his knees and looked at Shao Xi who was running in front and panting heavily.
"Old guy, you have been chasing me for more than nine years. I don't know if your sword skills have improved, but my body skills are definitely no worse than yours now." Shao Xi stopped, turned around and said to Old Wu with a smile.
Old Wu looked at the slender and handsome young man in front of him and couldn't help but laugh or cry. I have been teaching this boy for more than nine years, and I have been chasing this boy for more than nine years. Now I can't catch up with him. I don't know if it's because he has grown up, or because I am older.
Everyone in the Thoth Department is already used to it. For more than nine years, I have watched the old man and the young man chase each other every day. They are a pair of living treasures.
"Master Feng, you can finally outrun Lao Wu today and don't need to be spanked. Congratulations!" Su He, who was not far away, shouted to Shao Xi with a smile and a wave of his hands.
"Same joy, same joy!" Shao Xi also smiled and cupped his hands at Su He.
"You brat, let me make you proud. Let's see if you are still crazy or not." As he said that, Old Wu stood up and rushed towards Shao Xi at an extremely fast speed.
Shao Xi was talking proudly to Su He at the moment. How could he have expected that Old Wu would suddenly rush in front of him? Before he could dodge, he was knocked to the ground by Old Wu.
"Oh my God!"
The old man and the young man sat up from the ground, one was rubbing his forehead, and the other was rubbing his chin desperately.
"Old Wu, you really can't afford this! If you can't catch me, I'll launch a sneak attack." Shao Xi said, rubbing his chin vigorously.
"You brat, why do you grow so fast?" Old Wu was also rubbing his forehead.
"You lost the race today, so don't spank me again."
"Seeing as your body skills have been quite good recently, I'll let you go for now."
As soon as he heard that Lao Wu stopped beating him, Shao Xi quickly sat down next to Lao Wu and said with a flattering face: "Master, look at me now. Can I not be so old in the future?" I’m chasing you for a spanking, can’t we talk about it if there’s anything?”
Old Wu rolled his eyes and said, "When have I ever told you that you listened? You've made a good set of 'Feiyu Sword Technique' so easy to practice, and you still have the nerve to say it yourself? How have you been practicing your mental techniques in the past two days?" Have you been lazy?"
"Of course I'm not lazy! I am the most diligent in cultivating the mind method, and I have never been lazy. It won't be long before my meridians can break through the sixth star level. But there are some things that I feel are strange."
"Strange? What's strange?"
"Didn't I tell you before that I feel like there are two seas of Qi in my body? But no matter what method I use, I can't inject vitality into the other one. It's always like a pond without water. You can only watch there, it's useless at all." Shao Xi scratched his head.
Old Wu raised his hand and twirled the beard on his chin and said: "I really don't understand what's going on with this old man. Most people who practice only have one Qi Sea. You said you have two. According to my judgment, it's because of the second one." The reason for the existence of branch meridians. But why can't we inject vitality? I can't explain this. Maybe we will have the opportunity to meet Taoist Immortal in the future, and he can help us solve our doubts."
It is the twenty-first year of Long'an in the Jingyuan Empire of the Central Plains. A full ten years have passed since Shao Xi traveled to this world, and Lao Wu, the master of the second sword, has been teaching the three of them to practice martial arts for more than nine years. Now, Shao Xi's two meridians have been cultivated to close to the six-star level, and his martial arts has also been cultivated to the middle stage of the fourth level of "Qi Control Realm". As for Muren and Uzhina, they have both reached the third level of cultivation now, and it won't be long before the two of them can enter the "Qi Control Realm".
Zhuoligetu even treated Lao Wu to a drink specifically for this matter. He has been stuck in the third level of martial arts for so many years, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't enter the "Qi Control Realm". But now he was so happy to see that his two children were about to achieve something he could not accomplish under the guidance of Old Wu. I feel even more fortunate that I chose Lao Wu to be the master of my two children.
Indeed! Many martial arts cultivators cannot achieve their goals in a lifetime, but these children have actually achieved such a level in less than ten years. In the eyes of ordinary people, this is simply unbelievable. The world is like this. What you think you can get at your fingertips at any time may be a lifelong pursuit in the eyes of others.
Since ancient times, martial arts requires not only good prerequisites, but also the talent of the martial artist, hard work and some opportunities, so that it is possible to achieve success. Lao Wu has provided good conditions for several children in the early stage. Needless to say, the talents of several children. Except for Shao Xi who is occasionally lazy and lazy, the training of several people is quite hard. The rest depends on their own Chance.
Ever since Lao Wu knew that Shao Xi was of civil and military background, he, like Guo Youde, advocated that he could be both civil and military. He didn't want Shao Xi to become a martial artist who could only wield swords in the future, but wanted him to become a man with both civil and military skills. So over the years, Old Wu had entrusted people to exchange many classics and historical books from the Central Plains with the caravans passing through the grassland. Come back and read to Shao Xi. Shao Xi didn't worry much about this aspect, maybe because he didn't have to practice while reading?
"We should go." Old Wu said suddenly.
"Let's go? Dinner hasn't started yet! Old Wu, are you hungry so soon?" Shao Xi said while waving to Muren and Uzhina who were walking in the distance.
Muren has now grown into a young prairie boy with a strong build, dark skin, and strong features. And Uzhina who followed him has now become a slim, graceful and beautiful prairie girl.
The two of them were walking towards this side while waving to Shao Xi and Lao Wu.
"I mean, it's time for us to leave and go back to the Central Plains." Old Wu's voice was not loud, as if he was saying to himself.
"What? Back to the Central Plains?" Shao Xi looked at Old Wu with wide eyes.
"Yes, we must return to the Central Plains to do some things."
Lao Wu didn't say anything more, got up and walked towards the felt tent, leaving Shao Xi sitting there stupidly.
"Go back to the Central Plains..." Shao Xi said to himself.
It has been ten years since Shao Xi traveled through time. Now, in this world, he has grown into a sixteen-year-old boy. He knew that he was actually thirty-six years old now, but he had lived on this grassland for ten years. During these ten years of living with these simple grassland people, he felt that his mental age had not grown much. I still feel like I am still the same person I was ten years ago. He has become accustomed to this place and regards it as his home. He feels that everyone here is like his own relatives, and Muren and Uzhina are like his brothers and sisters. But today, Lao Wu suddenly told him that they were leaving, leaving the place where he had lived for ten years, and leaving these people who had been with him day and night for ten years. At this moment, Shao Xi couldn't explain how he felt in his heart. He knew that there were many things waiting for him and that he would have to leave here sooner or later. But when all this came to him, he didn't know what to do.
Muren came over, sat down next to Shao Xi, and punched him on the shoulder.
"Why are you dazed? Did you get spanked by Master again?"
Uzhina came bounding over, put her hands behind her back, twisted her upper body back and forth and said, "Muren, be careful with this bad boy, he might be holding something bad in his stomach."
Muren raised his head and looked at Uzhina and said seriously: "Don't talk about my Anda like that. Don't forget that he is still your senior brother."
Uzhina curled her lips, looked at the sky and said mischievously: "Yes! Your Anda! He is the senior brother who is chased and spanked by his master all day long."
Muren looked at Uzhina, who was unable to get enough of her, and shook her head helplessly.
"We should go." Shao Xi said suddenly like Lao Wu just now.
"Where are you going? Today's practice has not been completed, where do you want to go and be lazy? Muren, don't let him lead you astray." Uzhina reminded with two big eyes.
"Lao Wu just told me that we are going back to the Central Plains. I don't know if we will come back, let alone when." His voice was not loud, as if he was talking to himself.
"What?!" Muren and Uzhina asked almost in unison.
Muren's words were out of tune, and Uzhina's expression looked as if she was about to rush over and grab Shao Xi's collar and slap him in the face.
Shao Xi looked at the two of them with a "can you please stop making such a fuss" look and said, "What are you doing? Want to eat people? We have to leave sooner or later. Even if we don't leave now, we will leave in the future."
Muren grabbed Shao Xi's shoulders and asked solemnly: "Are you serious?"
"Do you think I'm joking? I thought Old Wu was joking just now." Shao Xi said weakly.
This time, before Muren could speak, Uzhina said in a red-faced voice, "Why do you leave just like that? Who did you tell me in advance? I won't agree."
Shao Xi looked at Uzhina with a dumbfounded expression and said, "Isn't that what I'm telling you right now? Besides, it's not up to you whether you agree or not. I can't let Old Wu go back alone this time. Right? And I really need to go back and figure out a lot of things ten years ago.”
"I don't care, I won't agree to it anyway. I'll go find the master and ask him. If he doesn't explain it to me, I won't let you go."
After saying that, Uzhina turned and ran towards the felt tent where Shao Xi and Lao Wu lived. From her back, she could vaguely see that she was running and raising her hands to wipe her tears with her sleeves.
Shao Xi shook his head helplessly, not knowing what to say. Although this girl usually quarreled with him, Shao Xi could feel how much she cared about him.
Muren grabbed Shao Xi's shoulder, squinted his eyes, gritted his teeth and asked, "Are you going back for revenge?"
