Chapter 4 Gambling
The next morning, Tang Lin got up early to practice without waiting for dawn.
After running for a few weeks, he suddenly felt refreshed and light. It seems that the weak person yesterday was not himself. He beat his chest hard with his fist, sonorous and muffled, like beating a drum. He feels that his body is full of strength. Walking around the yard, I suddenly felt windy and powerful under my feet.
After a hearty breakfast, Tang Lin followed his third uncle out of the yard.
Tang Mansion is very large. Out of the yard is a winding road, and there is a pond not far away. Soon, the third uncle led Tang Lin to a particularly spacious courtyard. Before I entered, I heard a loud fight. Inside the entrance, I saw a square of more than 100 square meters, full of teenagers dancing knives, guns and sticks.
"Third brother, why are you here? Didn't you go to the pharmacy today?" As soon as he entered the door, a Tibetan man greeted him. The man was seven feet tall, with a national face and thick and straight eyebrows. And ** on the upper body, revealing strong muscles.
When he saw this big man, Tang Lin's mind suddenly showed his memory of this big man. This is little Tang Lin's fifth uncle. In his memory, this big man is a rough man who only knows how to practice martial arts. However, since yesterday, he has known that the memories that little Tang Lin knows are all superficial things. At least, Xiao Tanglin didn't know that the third uncle, who had always been arrogant and calm, would kill people!
When the third uncle saw the big man, a smile appeared on his face: "Five brother!"
When the big man saw Tang Lin, he laughed and said, "Yo, isn't this Shisanlang? How about it? Is your health all right? I heard that you and Tang Biao had a martial arts competition a few days ago, but I can't see that you are quite bold. It's good to be able to get ahead for Lingling. But you have to pay attention to your own strength, so that you won't be able to get up, hahaha!!!" The big man smiled very cheerfully and patted Tang Lin on the shoulder.
Tang Lin only felt that his shoulder seemed to have been hit twice by two sledgehammers, and he grinned in pain.
"Fifth brother, Lin'er will start practicing martial arts from today. You are in charge of the martial arts hall of the family. I am relieved to have you here. I will give him to you in the future!" The third uncle said concisely.
The big man was stunned and looked at Tang Lin and said, "Isn't this little guy hated martial arts since he was a child? Why did you suddenly decide to practice martial arts again? Little guy, are you stimulated and want to practice good kung fu to revenge on Tang Biao?
Tang Lin rolled his eyes and said, "Uncle, you look down on me too much. Why do you put a Tang Biao in my eyes? My goal in the future is to become a peerless master! Across the world!"
The big man laughed and said, "Okay, okay, okay, I didn't expect Shisanlang to have such ambition. Little guy, the fifth uncle absolutely supports you! From now on, you can practice martial arts by my side!"
The third uncle nodded with a smile, and then said, "Five brother, I'm sorry to bother you."
After the third uncle left, the big man waved to a young man in his 20s who was playing a single knife not far away and said, "Wu Zheng, come here. This is the thirteenth young master. In the next month, you will be responsible for teaching the thirteenth young master. Remember, don't let others disturb or hurt Shisanlang. If he has anything wrong, you are the only one to ask!"
The man who was called Wu Zheng by the fifth uncle had a simple face. After listening to the fifth uncle's words, he nodded and shouted obedly, "Master, don't worry, I will take good care of the thirteenth young master."
The fifth uncle nodded and said to Tang Lin, "Thirteen, I think you are full of energy and bright forehead. Obviously, you have practiced the mental formula passed on to you by the third brother. I will no longer teach you the skills of internal skills. But you are weak and can't practice powerful martial arts, so from today on, you will follow Wu Zheng to learn how to boil your body and nourish your energy. When I wait for you to enter the muscle and bone realm, I will teach you in person. OK?"
Of course, Tang Lin can only agree.
At the sign of the fifth uncle, Wu Zheng led Tang Lin to the depths of the martial arts hall until he came to a remote small yard.
"Wu Zheng, what kind of kung fu are you practicing?" Tang Lin saw that Wu Zheng was strong and had strong muscles and bones. Obviously, he had been practicing for a long time. So asked.
Wu Zheng smiled naively, "Young master, the kung fu I practiced is some shallow martial arts. You will definitely learn peerless martial arts from the fifth master and the third master in the future. You don't have to care about my martial arts.
Tang Lin likes this simple man very much. Moreover, he now has a black eye on the situation around him and urgently needs a pair of eyes to pay attention to his surroundings. Isn't this honest young man in front of him a good partner? He walked to Wu Zheng, patted him on the shoulder affectionately, and said with a smile, "Brother Wu, I will follow you to practice martial arts in the future. It's better not to be so polite. Don't call me young master, just call me Shisanlang."
Wu Zheng waved his hand repeatedly: "I can't do it, young master, just call me Xiao Wu. I don't have the blessing to be your eldest brother."
Tang Lin laughed and said, "I said it's right. In the future, you will be my brother Wu!" Well, no more nonsense. You start to teach me how to survive and nourish yourself now!"
Wu Zheng scratched his head helplessly and nodded, "Well, Master Thirteen, you used to be in poor health, so let's start with the most basic five elements of boxing first!" These five-e elements boxing is the basic method to exercise the coordination ability of the whole body. It is a simple set of boxing techniques, which can well exercise breath and enhance qi and blood. After practicing the five elements of boxing, I will teach you other physical skills!"
"You have a good look. I'll show you first. The five elements correspond to the qi of the heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney, and can exercise the lungs and organs while walking!"
While Wu Zheng explained, he began to play a set of boxing skills. The boxing method is very simple, but with the flexible pace and body skills, there is a kind of flexible and ethereal beauty. Five elements of boxing, moving vertically and horizontally, refining gas to come true, five elements cycle, endless life. Practice the five elements and dare to change the internal force to true qi!"
Tang Lin looked at it intoxicatedly. He didn't expect that a simple boxing could have such a wonderful connotation.
"Yo, isn't this the thirteenth young master of our Tang Dynasty!" At this moment, an arrogant voice suddenly sounded from outside the yard, and then a group of four strode into the yard. The first one was a 15- or 16-year-old teenager, dressed gorgeously, but his face was full of flesh and fat ears. He is the one who speaks.
As soon as the teenager came in, he stared at Tang Lin with a disdainful face and said, "Just now, I heard Xiaoshi stone say that you came to the martial arts hall, but I didn't believe it. Now when I look at it, I didn't expect that the waste that I couldn't even take a move would really come. If you practice martial arts here, you want to come to me for revenge! Hey hey! Such an incompetent waste can't catch up with me even if he practices for another 100 years! Are you right?"
"Hee, Master Tang Biao's martial arts skills are unrivaled. How can this waste compare with him? This waste is not as good as Master Tang Biao even if he has been practicing for a thousand years!" Around Tang Biao, a thin underground man like a hemp rod smiled and complimented.
Tang Lin glanced at the two, as if he were watching a monkey play. He ignored them and imitated Wu Zheng's five elements of fist.
Tang Lin completely ignored their appearance and greatly stimulated their nerves. The thin hemp rod was like an underground man who rolled up his sleeves and was about to do it. But he was stopped by a young man in gorgeous clothes next to him.
"Fifth brother, it seems that the thirteenth brother is very unconvinced by the last martial arts competition. Why don't the fifth brother compare with the little thirteen again? I, Tangji, can also be a witness! Well, there is no lottery in the martial arts competition. I am willing to give a Peiyuan Dan as a prize for this martial arts competition. Thirteenth brother, if you can win, this Peiyuandan is yours!" The talking was a teenager standing side by side with Tang Biao. The teenager was handsome, but his eyes were full of treacherous look, and he knew at a glance that he was not a child of good conduct.
These four people, Tang Biao and Tang Ji are both the third generation of young masters of Tang Mansion. Tang Biao, who has a fleshy face, is the second son of the master of Tang Mansion. It was he who knocked little Tang Lin into a coma last time. In addition, the treacherous teenager named Tang Ji is the son of the fourth master. These two people have always been embarrassed and in the memory of little Tang Lin. The last martial arts competition was instigated by these two people. The other two are their lackey followers.
Originally, Tang Lin didn't care much, but when he heard the words of Pei Yuandan, he hesitated. Because he remembered the information of Pei Yuandan.
"Peiyuandan? This guy actually bet on this precious elixir. He believes that I can't win!"
Peiyuan elixir: carefully refined from some precious drugs such as ripe ground, Angelica, ginseng, astragalus, Niuhuang, Shouwu, seven-leaf Ganoderma lucidum, undead grass and sunflower. It has the effect of removing impurities in the body, dredge meridians, and solidifying Peiyuan to enhance qi and blood. It is extremely useful for martial artists below the realm of Yuanli, only some general trend. Only by refining it. Generally, if a warrior gets one, it is very precious. Generally, they are used to advance.
Such a precious elixir, even a young master like Tang Ji, can only have one elixir, and it is also an elixir given by the elders to let them advance.
Thinking of this, Tang Lin turned around and asked, "Tang Ji, do you really want to bet on Pei Yuandan?"
Tang Ji's slender eyes flashed with cunning thief light and shouted, "Of course, I have never taken back what Tang Ji said. As long as you win, I will never regret it!"
Tang Lin shouted decisively, "Okay, I'll take this martial arts competition!"
Tang Ji glanced at Tang Biao and saw the joy in the other party's eyes. He thought to say to him, "This silly boy still can't stand the excitement. Last time, he promised to the martial arts competition in a few words. Unexpectedly, he would not change after suffering a loss. This time he must die ugly. Moreover, if you win this time, you can ask stewer Liu for a Peiyuan Dan. Thinking of Mr. Liu's gloomy face, even Tang Ji, who had always been scheming, was frightened.
Tang Biao smiled and stepped forward and shouted, "Okay, have courage. Let's go to the martial arts competition!"
"Wait!" Tang Lin shouted and said with a sarcastic smile, "You won't be stupid to think that I promised to play martial arts with you now, will you? Do you think I'm really stupid? Just woke up from a seriously injured coma, can't wait to compare martial arts with someone in the same level as yourself? That's not a martial arts competition, but a search for death! I promised to have a martial arts competition a month later. Now, how far you can get out of me!"
Tang Biao was furious when he heard this: "Kid, how dare you fool us! You are looking for death!"
Tang Ji also looked gloomy: "Tang Lin, don't want to make a toast and don't eat punishment. Just now, you promised to fight. Now you dare not fight, but you can't help it! Wang Fu, Li Stone, go up and catch him and take him to the martial arts platform!"
The thin subordinate and the short and fat man beside Tang Ji answered and rushed up like a hungry tiger and sheep.
Tang Lin immediately took a step back, stood behind Wu Zheng and shouted, "Wu Zheng, it's up to you!"
Wu Zheng, who had been silent, saw Li Stone and Wang Fu rushing up. Without saying a word, he rushed up and hammered his fist as big as a casserole, like a crazy tiger. Li Shitou and Wang Fu were shocked by Wu Zheng's madness. As soon as they were discouraged, their feet softened and were beaten by Wu Zheng.
Tang Biao saw that the situation was wrong and shouted angrily, "Waste, get out of the way, let me do it!" He said he was going to join the regiment.
At this time, a delicate shout suddenly sounded at the door of the yard: "Tang Biao, Tang Ji, what are you doing? This is the martial arts hall, not the place where you fight! Stop it all!"
Tang Lin followed the voice and saw a young girl in purple practice clothes standing at the door. Her graceful figure was outlined by the practice clothes, which was concave and convex. A pair of apricot eyes opened angrily on the broken face, and the long hair was simply tied behind the head, and the whole person showed a heroic temperament.
Tang Biao and Tang Ji were shocked when they saw that a girl came in. Tang Biao originally punched to fight, but as soon as he saw the girl, he immediately stepped back and shrank back like a quail.
"Fourth sister!" Tang Ji and Tang Biao shouted in a low voice.
The girl's eyes swept, came in with a frosty face, and scolded the two people, "Tang Biao Tang Ji, you are really getting better and better! The strength has not improved, but the ability to provoke trouble and fight has increased every day. Isn't it enough for you to beat your thirteenth brother into a coma last time? Come to bully him again today! Don't you want to have a martial arts competition? My hands are itchy today. How about practicing a few tricks with you?
Tang Ji shrank his shoulders and said with a bitter face, "Fourth sister, you're kidding. With your strength to increase our two realms, isn't it looking for death if we fight with you?" It's a misunderstanding today. We're just betting! It's not true, it's not true! Look, it's getting late, and it's time to have lunch. Well, we'll withdraw first!"
Tang Ji pulled Tang Biao and shouted in a low voice, "Don't go yet!"
Tang Biao reacted, hurriedly retreated with a smile, and escaped from the yard in confusion. Li Stone and Wang Fu, two lackeys, naturally followed closely.
From afar, Tang Ji's voice came: "Tang Lin, ten days later, it will be the annual intra-ethnic big comparison in our Tang Dynasty. If you really have the courage, we will see you!"
