Next, Zhao Mingyuan followed the two of them to where they lived.
This is just a shabby house that has been abandoned for a long time. It is drafty on all sides and has a big hole in the roof.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling looked at Zhao Mingyuan with slightly blushing faces.
After all, just by looking at the clothes and accessories, you can tell that Zhao Mingyuan is definitely used to living a wealthy life, but now he follows them to this miserable place. The two of them naturally felt a little embarrassed.
Zhao Mingyuan naturally didn't say anything.
In fact, Zhao Mingyuan is not short of money, and he is used to living in a comfortable place.
However, traveling around the world, even sleeping in the wilderness, is a common occurrence. Of course this is nothing.
Along the way, Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling had already talked about their situation.
Although Zhao Mingyuan had already roughly guessed it, but now listening to the two people telling it in person, he felt very different.
I have to say, being able to be the protagonist is really something special.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were both orphans, just two gangsters who depended on each other for their lives.
But the two of them were able to realize that if they don't study, they will always be at the bottom.
I was even more able to force myself to persevere and go outside a private school every day to eavesdrop on an old master’s lecture.
This is very remarkable.
Zhao Mingyuan remembered that at this age, he seemed to be still in elementary school. Every day when he went to school, it almost killed him.
But the two of them, without the supervision of outsiders, were able to take the initiative to learn on their own, which is really unparalleled.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "I can tell you good news. Not only do you two have good qualifications, but you also have excellent luck."
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling couldn't help but look happy.
Just listen to Zhao Mingyuan continue to say: "You have excellent qualifications, and you can practice thousands of miles in almost any martial arts.
Of course, good qualifications can only make your practice progress quickly in the early stages.
To become a top master, in addition to martial arts qualifications, you also need understanding, perseverance and opportunity.
I think you two are quite clever, and your understanding must be the same.
As for perseverance, you two are so young that you are able to persist in eavesdropping and studying. Your perseverance is also very good.
By this chance, you two can meet me, which naturally proves that you have a good chance. "
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling became more and more happy as they listened.
But Zhao Mingyuan continued to say: "Of course, I said your good luck doesn't stop there.
Because the most important period of martial arts practice is the ten years from five to fifteen years old.
This is the time when people are the youngest and most energetic. Practicing martial arts at this time will get twice the result with half the effort.
This is the destiny of practicing martial arts. Anyone who wants to become an outstanding master must start practicing from childhood.
Once this time is exceeded, the door to martial arts will almost be closed. No matter how talented you are and how hard you practice, you will still get twice the result with half the effort, and it will be difficult to become a top master. "
When Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling heard this, they couldn't help but feel scared. Fortunately, they were really lucky and it was not too late to meet Zhao Mingyuan.
Zhao Mingyuan looked at the expressions of the two people and continued: "There are only a few techniques in this world that can break through this obstacle.
Fortunately, you are lucky and it is not too late to meet me now.
Of course, you are better off because even if you are older, you will not be afraid when you meet me.
Because, it just so happens that I have the technique in my hand to break this iron law. "
The two took a deep breath and finally felt relieved.
Zhao Mingyuan's heavy breathing shocked the two of them. If they were told that they had superior qualifications first, but then they were overage and unable to practice, then the two of them would be in pain and despair.
After the joke, Zhao Mingyuan said seriously: "Since you want to become a disciple, let me tell you about my disciple's situation first. I am originally from the Huashan Sect."
Kou Zhong's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said: "Huashan, I know. It's the Huashan of Xiyue. As one of the Five Mountains, the Huashan Sect must be very powerful!"
Zhao Mingyuan glared at Kou Zhong and said, "Have you ever heard of the Huashan Sect?"
The two seemed to have figured out Zhao Mingyuan's character and knew that he had a good temper. Even if he was stared at, Kou Zhong was not afraid and continued: "We are ordinary people and have not entered the world. How can we know about these things in the world?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Don't talk about you, no one in the world has heard of the Huashan Sect.
In short, forget it, just think that the Huashan Sect is a hermit sect. There is no need to go to Huashan to look for him in the future, there is no one there either.
Later, I became successful in cultivation and left Huashan. Later, by chance, he became the leader of Xiaoyao Sect. "
Zhao Mingyuan showed the Seven Treasures Ring on his hand and said: "This is the Seven Treasures Ring, the leader's token of the Xiaoyao Sect, which represents the inheritance of the Xiaoyao Sect.
I, the Xiaoyao sect, have a vast inheritance, medicine, divination, astrology, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, mechanics and handyman, trade and planting, drinking and singing, ordering and riddles, Five Elements Bagua, Qimen Dunjia, farmland water conservancy, economic and military strategy, everything is omnipotent, and I am expert in everything. .
The Xiaoyao Sect has always acted in a chic and low-key manner, so few people in the world know about it.
The Xiaoyao sect's martial arts emphasize lightness and elegance, elegance and purity, and infinite power. If you get one of these, you can be invincible in the martial arts world.
However, now I am the only disciple of Xiaoyao Sect left in this world.
You will be considered disciples of Xiaoyao Sect from now on. "
Kou Zhong asked: "Master, is it so careless to become a disciple? Is there no need to place an incense table? I heard that there is also a ritual of three bows and nine knocks, and inviting people to witness these rituals?"
Zhao Mingyuan said: "No need, those are just false etiquette. We Xiaoyao Sect have never recognized this. We only need to know and approve it in our own hearts. Why do we need other people's witnesses?"
Zhao Mingyuan thought for a while and then said: "However, since you have joined the sect, you need to learn the sect's rules.
Well, there are only three sect rules for now. Remember them:
First, we cannot bully our teachers and destroy our ancestors.
Second, we cannot fight against each other.
Third, we must not harm nature.
For the time being, these are the three things you need to remember. "
Xu Ziling said: "Master, why do these sect rules sound like you made them up now?"
Zhao Mingyuan hit him on the head, and Xu Ziling groaned and hugged his head.
Zhao Mingyuan said: "Nonsense! I am the leader, and my words are naturally the rules of the sect. Do you have a problem?"
"No, no." The two shook their heads hastily.
Zhao Mingyuan continued: "The Xiaoyao Sect pays attention to doing what one wants. Therefore, too many rules can only restrict you. In fact, if you really want to do something, no matter how strict the rules are, they can't stop you."
The two hurriedly shook their heads again, saying that they would never violate the rules.
However, they were secretly thinking that the bottom line of this sect was too low. Could it be a demon sect? No wonder I've never heard of it.
Zhao Mingyuan saw the expressions of the two people changing and said, "Are you wondering whether our Xiaoyao Sect is a demon sect?"
Seeing the change in the expressions of the two men, Zhao Mingyuan continued: "That's right. In fact, in the previous generation, there was indeed a demon among the masters.
He once roamed the Western Regions with his poisonous skills, and even made a sneak attack and knocked his master, the leader of the previous generation, off a cliff.
In the previous generation, there were also incidents of family members killing each other.
Therefore, I have made it a sect rule to deceive one's master and kill one's ancestors, and to kill fellow sect members. As for the things that are harmful to nature, I did it myself. "
Seeing that the faces of the two people in front of him, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, became increasingly strange, Zhao Mingyuan continued: "We even have a skill called Beiming Divine Skill.
Although it is a Taoist technique, some of its effects are more terrifying than magic techniques. You can absorb other people's energy for your own use to enhance your own skills.
There was once a person who practiced this technique when he was nearly 20 years old. Within a year or two, he became one of the three strongest people in the world. "
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were so frightened that they were actually from the Demon Sect.
But Zhao Mingyuan's voice changed and he continued: "I said, the Xiaoyao Sect is about doing whatever you want. Whether you want to be a saint or a hero, you can do it. Likewise, if you want to be a devil, no one will stop you. As long as it's your true intention, there's nothing wrong with it."
Xu Ziling suddenly asked: "That's why Master insisted on asking us what our dreams are. That's why, right?"
Zhao Mingyuan smiled casually and said: "It's not actually the case, that's just to scare you.
No matter what your answer is, it's the same.
People's desires will change over time, and those are just your thoughts at the time.
By following my teachings, you will be able to learn a lot of skills and gain more. No one can tell what you will want in the future.
I just hope you can remember your wish at that time and don't forget your mood at that moment. "
In the end, Zhao Mingyuan took the two of them out of this dilapidated house and bought a large manor in Yangzhou City.
Nowadays, the city of Yangzhou is populated by hundreds of civil and military officials, which naturally drives up the price of land.
Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan would naturally spend a lot of money to buy a manor.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingyuan has not worried about money for a long time.
Gao Zhong and Xu Ziling watched Zhao Mingyuan spend a lot of money, their eyes widened, and they couldn't recover for a long time.
After all, even a fraction of it was enough to last them a lifetime.
When the two of them walked into the manor, put on new clothes, and were called "Master" by the servants and maids, the two of them seemed to wake up.
Seeing the changes in the expressions of the two people, Zhao Mingyuan understood that this was an indispensable lesson, and the money was not wasted.
After all, both of them were born into poverty and were easily deceived by wealth. Therefore, I have always yearned for the prime minister and the general.
In this case, Zhao Mingyuan let them live a life of wealth first.
After all, a happy childhood can heal a lifetime; an unfortunate childhood takes a lifetime to heal.
Let them feel happy from now on.
If you are not happy yourself, how can you bring happiness to others?
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling cannot learn martial arts yet. After all, they don’t understand the meridians and acupoints, nor do they understand many Taoist scriptures.
Zhao Mingyuan started teaching from scratch.
Fortunately, the two of them are already literate and have great talents. They can learn everything quickly and can even draw inferences from one example.
Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan is not very tired when teaching.
