"Did you see that the person on the throne is our master Lu Tao! Next to him is our senior brother Nie Feng... From now on, when you see them, you must salute them, do you understand?"
The martial artist leading the way reminded Su Qin.
"I understand! I understand!" Su Qin nodded quickly.
"I've met the master, I've met the senior brother." When he came to Lu Tao, he led the way and the martial arts master saluted respectfully.
"Su Qin came to learn from his master and asked Master Lu to accept me as his disciple." Su Qin handed over the money bag with both hands.
Nie Feng on the side took it for Lu Tao without saying a word, opened it, and put it in front of Lu Tao's eyes.
"Oh, there are copper coins and broken silver. I'm afraid it's not easy to save these... Looking at you, you seem to be a scholar?"
Lu Tao glanced at the coins inside, looked at Su Qin, and guessed his identity from his long robe.
"Master Lu has a keen eye. He was indeed a scholar before I came down. I saved all this money bit by bit by teaching for the young masters of the big families in the city."
Su Qin looked at the copper coins in the purse, full of heartache and reluctance.
"Okay, you have courage. The world is not peaceful now, and it is not safe anywhere without some martial arts." Lu Tao suddenly said loudly,
"But I still have to make it clear to you. These twenty taels of silver are only enough to practice martial arts in the martial arts hall for three months. Are you still willing to do this?"
Three months... Su Qin had already inquired about this. He nodded firmly: "Disciple is willing!"
"In that case, I will accept you as my disciple!" Lu Tao turned to the eldest disciple beside him and said, "Nie Feng, pour some tea!"
"Yes, Master."
Nie Feng picked up the teapot from the table and filled it up.
"Junior brother, come here, this is the apprenticeship tea. After inviting Master to drink this cup of apprenticeship tea, you will be admitted."
"Thank you, senior brother." Su Qin took it with both hands, then stepped forward with the teacup in both hands, bent down and gave the tea to Lu Li respectfully, "Master, please drink tea."
"Yes." Lu Tao nodded, took the tea cup, and took a sip, "Okay, you will be my disciple from now on. By the way, you seem to live in the city?"
Su Qin didn't understand what he was doing, so he nodded and said, "Yes, the disciple lives in Taohua Lane."
"Well, which gang's territory is this?" Lu Li asked casually.
"Master, it's the Green Snake Gang." Before Su Qin could answer, the martial artist next to him rushed to answer.
"In that case, Fu Yu, go and tell the Green Snake Gang later that your junior brother is already a member of our backing martial arts school." Lu Li said casually, as if to mention another inconspicuous thing.
But Su Qin heard it and told the Green Snake Gang people not to take any more money from him.
'It's no wonder it's a martial arts school with a backer. Having a backer makes it different and domineering. '
'I heard before that as long as you enter the martial arts gym, you will be protected by the martial arts gym. I didn't expect it to be true. '
"Thank you, Master." Su Qin quickly bowed.
"Okay, please leave first. Fu Yu, you take Su Qin to get the training uniforms, and tell him the rules of the martial arts gym." Lu Li waved his hand, indicating that they could go down.
From beginning to end, the sparring disciples never stopped.
…
Fu Yu respectfully withdrew from Su Qin, then looked at Su Qin and raised his chin.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Fu. I have just started, so please take care of me."
Su Qin couldn't help but rolled his eyes in his heart, put on a smile on his face, and stuffed a few coins into it.
"Easy to say, easy to say." Fu Yu accepted the money, with a satisfied expression on her face, and then told Su Qin about the rules of the martial arts school.
"Junior brother, since you have a house in the city, there is no need to live in Datongpu of the martial arts school. I will go and tell the Green Snake Gang then, and they will never dare to disturb you again."
At this time, Su Qin dared to ask: "Senior Brother Fu, I live in Peach Blossom Lane, and the Green Snake Gang has always been right. Why doesn't it dare to touch the people in our martial arts school?"
Fu Yu sneered and said with a slight smile: "Junior brother, you don't understand this."
"I'd like to hear the details." Su Qin kept his posture very low. He knew that people like Fu Yu liked to be supported by others.
"Hehe, this is about the realm of the warrior. From low to high, it is divided into skin refining, bone refining, and internal organ refining."
"Although skin refining is the lowest level, as long as you can do it, you will be a martial artist. By then, both the gangs and the big players in the city will be vying for you. It can be said that you will have no worries about food and drink."
"As for bone refining, the brothers and sisters who were sparring in the training room just now are all at this level, and the leaders of the larger gangs are also at this level."
Su Qin originally thought that those gang leaders should only be at the first level of martial arts, but he didn't expect it to be higher than this.
After all, Mr. Bao, who collects money from his family members, is just a taller gangster with no martial arts skills at all.
'But Peach Blossom Lane is just an inconspicuous alley under the Green Snake Gang's territory, and it really doesn't need any big shots to control the situation. 'Su Qin understood.
"As for Lianzang, they are well-known figures in the entire Yunshan City... These people, no matter which faction they belong to, are all guests... Our master and senior brother are all such figures."
Fu Yu looked proud and proud.
"So Junior Brother, now you understand why Master doesn't take those gangs seriously."
"That's it. Thank you, senior brother, for clearing up the confusion." Su Qin sincerely thanked him.
"Hey, this is all common sense." Fu Yu said this, but his face was filled with joy, and he continued: "By the way, junior brother, you can eat at the martial arts hall from now on, and you will also get medicine every ten days. , those twenty taels of silver were not paid in vain."
Then, Fu Yu told Su Qin that senior brother Nie Feng must not be offended in the martial arts hall.
This is not only because he is the master's direct disciple, but most importantly, the entire backing martial arts school may be handed over to him in the future.
Because when a martial artist reaches a certain age, his energy and blood will decline, and his strength will no longer be at its peak.
Now in the backing martial arts gym, Nie Feng may still be stronger than Lu Tao.
Similarly, now in the martial arts hall, it is Nie Feng who teaches on behalf of the master.
…
at dusk.
Su Qin was wearing a brand-new gray training uniform with a striking word 'reliance' embroidered on the chest, and black and white-soled shoes.
This outfit is the exclusive training uniform for the disciples of the patron martial arts school.
Originally, Fu Yu came with him, but he and Su Qin separated halfway, and the head of the Green Snake Gang was no longer in the small Peach Blossom Alley.
"Today, let's celebrate."
Su Qin walked towards the only tavern in Taohua Lane, Yulai Tavern.
Walking into the tavern, there were many people sitting inside.
There are no rich people in Peach Blossom Lane. They only have a bowl of wine and a plate of food to go with the wine. Those who are a little rich can just cut the meat and eat it with condiments.
"Brother Su, why are you here today?" When we first entered the tavern, the waiter knew Su Qin and asked with a smile:
"What do you want?"
"A bowl of rice wine, a bowl of plain meat, dipped in chili sauce and eaten."
Su Qin took out five big coins in his arms.
"Ah, isn't this Mr. Su? Why are you still wearing training clothes? Come on, let me take a look."
I saw a plump woman with her hair tied up high in a hairpin walking out of the kitchen.
