Fei Jie slowly frowned. Because he believed in the blind man's power, he had never thought that there would be any problems with Fan Xian's zhenqi. But today, when he checked Fan Xian's pulse, he found something unusual.
Seeing his obscene teacher's serious face, Fan Xian knew something was wrong. He smiled and asked, "Is there a problem?"
"You're smiling like that. Aren't you afraid of going mad?" Fei Jie glared at him. "Last time, I only knew that the zhenqi you practiced was overbearing, but I didn't expect it to be this overbearing."
Fan Xian scratched his head. "Overbearing? How overbearing? "
Fei Jie answered seriously, "Very overbearing."
Fan Xian looked at him seriously. "Teacher, we're both talking nonsense."
...
...
Fei Jie was a master of poisons, not a grandmaster. Naturally, he couldn't tell what the nameless zhenqi Fan Xian practiced was, but he could clearly feel the danger of the zhenqi in the child's body. After thinking about it for a while, he advised Fan Xian to go find Wu Zhu. Unexpectedly, Fan Xian sighed and said that Wu Zhu had only listened to his mother and given him the book. Even he himself hadn't practiced it, so he wouldn't say anything.
Fei Jie was furious. "Master Wu is going too far. As his young master, why doesn't he teach you personally? Instead, he makes you learn this dangerous method without the guidance of a good teacher?"
For more than a year, he had long regarded the five-year-old boy in front of him as the greatest source of comfort in his later years. He still hoped that Fan Xian would one day be able to inherit his mantle and carry forward what he had learned. So when he heard of this matter, he began to resent the blind Wu Zhu.
"Is Uncle Wu Zhu very powerful?" Fan Xian asked, squinting like a little fox.
"Of course." Fei Jie thought about the past. "But in this world, not many people know of Sir Wu's existence. Do you know of the Four Grandmasters?"
Of course Fan Xian knew. In today's world, the four martial superpowers worshipped by the common people were the Four Grandmasters. There were two in the Kingdom of Qing, one in the Kingdom of Northern Qi, and one in the City of Dongyi.
In the present world, the Qing Kingdom, under the leadership of the Emperor, had long obtained an overwhelming advantage. Strangely, after the bloodshed in the coup last year, the power of the country had recovered, but the Emperor had instead laid down the flags and ceased to expand outward. However, it was natural for the most powerful country to have two super powerhouses.
"That's right, our country currently has two Great Grandmasters." Fei Jie sneered and said, "People are stupid and stubborn. They only know how to fight. How would they know that once poison is perfected, they can also become a grandmaster …"
Fan Xian hurriedly coughed twice to stop his teacher from boasting.
"If we exclude the most mysterious temple, of the four grandmasters, the Kingdom of Qing has two. One of them is the younger brother of the teacher of the current commander of the Jingdou garrison, Ye Liuyun of the Flowing Cloud Sanshou."
Fan Xian's eyes widened, thinking that this was a bit long, but the Jingdou Garrison was responsible for the safety of the entire capital. It was the most important position in the world. That teacher's … brother, Ye Liuyun, was probably very strong.
"There is another expert. I heard that he is in the Imperial Palace, but no one has seen him."
"Hey, teacher, we're talking about Uncle Wu Zhu."
"What's the rush?" Fei Jie stared at him. "Ye Liuyun has fought 17 duels in his life and never lost once. But when your mother first came to the capital, because she beat up Ye Liuyun's nephew, who is now the commander of the Jingdou garrison, into a pig's head, Ye Liuyun spread the word that he was going to make trouble for your mother."
Fan Xian was dumbfounded. His mother, whom he had never met, was also an arrogant character back in the day.
Fei Jie chuckled and said, "But later, for some reason, Ye Liuyun suddenly stopped caring about this matter. Ye Zhong even went to Taiping Courtyard to serve tea to your mother and apologize."
"Huh?"
"No one knows what happened. This matter has always been very mysterious. But it should be that Ye Liuyun and Sir Wu Zhu fought under the palace walls. Sir Wu Zhu was your mother's servant, so it was normal for him to stand up for something like this. "Fei Jie picked up the cup of tea beside him and took a sip.
"Who won in the end?" Fan Xian's eyes were wide with curiosity. Although he knew that the blind Wu Zhu was a powerful fighter, he did not expect him to have the experience of fighting Ye Liuyun, one of the Four Great Grandmasters.
"No one knows the result, but it should have been a draw." Fei Jie frowned and said, "I heard that after Ye Liuyun returned to his sword pavilion, he trained with a black cloth for half a year. It was after that that he abandoned the sword and developed a set of simple, unadorned sanshou. Only then did he truly become a grandmaster. I think that battle must have inspired him a lot."
He propped up his face and thought, "Four Great Grandmasters? Then Fifth Zhu was ranked fifth. Did that mean he was the fifth Great Grandmaster? "
Fan Xian's eyes shone like peach blossoms. It turned out that his blind servant was so powerful. In the future, when he ventured into the world, who would he have to be afraid of?
Suddenly, he thought of a question. "Teacher, didn't you say that these things are all secrets? How did you know? "
Fei Jie said coldly, "I am a high-ranking official of the Overwatch Council. To us, there are no secrets in this world."
For some reason, Fan Xian had always been particularly interested in the powerful figures of this world. It was as if he felt that after a decade or so, he would eventually meet those people. So he opened his mouth and asked, "Have you met the other three Great Grandmasters?"
"The other master of the Kingdom of Qing only exists in legends. According to analysis, he should be in the palace, but no one has actually met him." Fei Jie said, "As for the peerless master of the Kingdom of Northern Qi, it is naturally their Imperial Advisor, that perverted bald Ku He."
"Bald?" Fan Xian remembered that there was no Buddhism in this world, so naturally there were no monks.
"He was a monk. I heard that Ku He was an ascetic monk. He once knelt in front of the bluestone steps of the temple for three months, drinking only cold food and dew. For some reason, he moved the people in the temple. Just like that, he received the gift of God and became a Great Grandmaster." Fei Jie cursed. It seemed that he envied the ascetic monk named Ku He. "One look and you could tell that the bald man was a liar."
"Temple?"
"Temple. It is a temple dedicated to the gods."
"Teacher, you're talking nonsense again."
"... The temple is the most mysterious place in the entire continent. It is said that it is the place where the ancestors worship the gods. Unfortunately, other than a few extremely lucky bastards, no one has been able to find out where the temple is. So no one knows what it is like inside."
"Then perhaps... the temple does not exist?"
Fei Jie hit Fan Xian's little head hard. "It is one thing to mess around normally, but how can you be so disrespectful to such a holy and noble place?"
Fan Xian held his head and looked at his teacher in shock. First, he was shocked that his teacher, who had used poison without blinking an eye, would still maintain respect for the Temple. Second, he found that he had easily accepted the Four Great Grandmasters and the Temple, which seemed to be a bit strange.
It seemed that he really had adapted to this world.
