Xuan Shuang knelt down in front of Li Yijie and said, "Shifu, from today on disciple will sincerely learn martial arts, I will not complain about hardship or tiredness, I will not cheat or play tricks. Shifu, please teach me with all your strength, let me become a martial art master." "How is your leg?" Li Yijie asked with concern, "How is your leg? You must not force yourself. Do you want to rest for a few more days? "Xuan Shuang said," Learning is like rowing a boat against the current, if you don't advance, you will fall behind. The martial arts are the same. Disciple has injured my leg these past few months, I have rested for a long time, I should not delay any longer. "
Li Yijie smiled and said, "Shifu is very gratified that you are so motivated. However, we who learn martial arts can bring good fortune to the world, but we can also bring harm to the Wulin world. The difference depends on a person's thoughts, we must not overlook it. Whether or not you can correct your attitude is very important. Shifu must ask the question from last time again: Why do you practice martial arts? "
Xuan Shuang repeated Li Yijie's words and said, "To strengthen my body, to uphold justice, to eliminate violence and bring peace to the people." Li Yijie clapped his hands in delight, but Xuan Shuang secretly sneered, "You say one thing and mean another, what's so hard about saying a few nice words? It's just that it's meaningless, but that's not what I think. "
Li Yijie then asked, "But what about Jiang Liechen? He is not that easy to deal with. If you see him later, how are you going to deal with him? "
Xuan Shuang's abacus was very accurate, he thought, "If I blindly say nice words, it will be too fake, it won't be in line with my nature, and it will arouse suspicion. Besides, that kind of deep enmity, if I can just say I forget it, it will seem like I am a reckless person … "He pondered for a moment and then came up with an idea. With a serious face he said," The 'Seven Evils Demon' has caused harm to the world, his blood debt is piled high, everybody has the right to punish him, naturally he must be killed. But before I have full confidence, I will not take the risk to provoke him. "
Li Yijie was greatly delighted. "Good, good," he said, "You are finally sensible. Shifu still wants you to practice the horse stance for an hour. Don't think it's too hard, this is … "Xuan Shuang interrupted, reciting Li Yijie's words from the past, saying," This is to build the foundation. When you are fighting, the enemy won't move and won't move, but will wait for you to attack. But first you have to stabilize your lower body. Later on, whether you are defending or evading, you will be in an invincible position. "" That's right! " But your feet … can you hold on? "
Xuan Shuang said, "Disciple has already decided to officially practice martial arts, so I shouldn't find any excuses. If he continued to use his foot injury as an excuse to drag it out endlessly, he wouldn't have to waste this much effort. Even if I break my leg, I won't give up halfway. " As he spoke, he turned around and ran to the side. He spread his legs outwards, bent his knees slightly, pulled his arms behind his back, placed his fists on his waist, and assumed a horse stance.
Not too long later, his back was drenched in sweat. The sweat on his forehead was like a small stream, flowing straight down his face. Several drops of sweat flowed into his eyes. It was so hot that it hurt, but he did not reach out to rub it. Not too long later, he felt as if his entire body was covered with tiny needles. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and his injured ankle was in severe pain again. There was no part of his body that did not feel uncomfortable. He wanted to cry, but he clenched his teeth and endured with all his might.
Li Yijie could vaguely see Xuan Shuang exerting himself; he was very pleased. He turned to Lu Qian and said with a laugh, "You see, I told you that this child Xuan Shuang is a moldable talent. As long as you give him some time, he will definitely mature." He did not care that these words were actually taken from Tang Yuancheng's words, so he simply took them for his own use.
Lu Qian laughed coldly and said, "Humph, you can praise him all you want. In any case, everything about your disciple is good. Just like you, huh? This only serves to show how much of a scoundrel my disciple is. "
Li Yijie was in a good mood. He saw that everything was bright and sunny. He laughed and said, "Actually, Jiahua's nature is not bad. You should have a good talk with him, turn hostility into friendship, and accomplish a beautiful thing. "
Lu Qian humphed coldly and said, "You think it's just who is not giving who face? You want to try, don't you? Fine, I'll show you. " He strolled toward Shangguan Yaohua and said with a cold laugh, "I wonder what kind of good wind is blowing today that the Xiao Wangye has the time to grace us with your presence?"
Shangguan Yaohua coldly said, "What? Do you think this training field is your territory, that other people cannot enter?"
Lu Qian had always thought that he was good at self-control, but now that he was provoked, his temper flared up. He opened his eyes wide and angrily said, "You, this kid, are looking for death …"
Shangguan Yaohua said, "Stare, stare some more! Be careful not to stare until your eyeballs pop out. " Lu Qian did not want to make a fool of himself. He forced himself to calm down and said, "Why are you with the Lord Baylor Ling?" The two of them hated and feared each other, but they stubbornly supported each other. No one could see that they were reluctant.
Shangguan Yaohua said, "The Lord Baylor Ling is the future Crown Prince. What's wrong with this Prince befriending him? In short, no matter who I'm with, it's better than hooking up with you. You don't have any ability, you only know how to use sneak attacks to hurt people. How shameless. "
Lu Qian coldly laughed and said, "So you're trying to curry favor with that kid because of this? You're someone who came later. Those who don't know are not guilty. You say he's the future Crown Prince, but I'm the real future Emperor. He's just a little kid. If you follow him, you won't have a future. Why don't you come back and follow me? No matter how many times you eat the grass, you'll always be a good horse. What do you think? "
Shangguan Yaohua said, "Is that so? You think I'm a person who only cares about profit, who wavers at any time? "Lu Qian laughed and said," Aren't you? "
Shangguan Yaohua said, "Very good! Then wait until you're the real Emperor, then you can talk to me again. Before that, I'll have to trouble you to keep your mouth shut! "
Lu Qian let out a long laugh and said, "Good, you really are the Cheng Jiahua! This kind of fence-sitter has always been his trademark. "
Shangguan Yaohua said, "When people make friends, it's all for profit. Why make a fuss about nothing? If you have no power or influence, who would be willing to be your follower? You think too highly of yourself. Master Lu, this is not your Qingtian Stronghold. You don't have to show off in front of me. Nobody will listen to you. Benwang understands the pain of losing your disciple and won't bicker with you. But if you insist on forcing me, I won't be polite. Benwang is not your disciple. I don't deserve to be scolded like a grandson, and I'm not a soft persimmon that you can bully. "
Lu Qian couldn't take it anymore and started scolding back. Shangguan Yaohua didn't want to be outdone either. The two of them talked back and forth. In the blink of an eye, the martial arts field was filled with a foul atmosphere. Li Yijie tried to persuade them but couldn't. He just smiled bitterly.
From that day onwards, every time Xuan Shuang came to learn martial arts, Shangguan Yaohua would accompany him. He would also quarrel with Lu Qian. It was as if the two of them were born to be enemies. Whenever they met, they would quarrel. At first, Li Yijie was wholeheartedly trying to persuade them. But later, he felt that it wasn't a bad idea to listen more, so he just let them be.
However, the two of them didn't care about anything. They just wanted to be happy. They didn't want to quarrel enough in the martial arts field. In the end, when it came to Tang Yuancheng's class, they also chattered non-stop. Their topics covered a wide range of topics. Even one star or one month could be used as a debate.
Tang Yuancheng was good at adapting to changes. One time, he suddenly had an idea. He taught Xuan Shuang to listen carefully to the two people's words. Then, he quoted from a wide range of sources and came up with a new opinion. He used one sentence to overwhelm the two people. Xuan Shuang was greatly interested. He racked his brains and sure enough, the words he said were astonishing. Li Yijie didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He could only sigh that the logic of literature didn't work in martial arts.
Xuan Shuang followed Li Yijie and studied martial arts for more than a month. What he learned was the same old routine. He kept repeating it over and over again. His patience was getting weaker and weaker. One day, Li Yijie gave him the same instruction, "Run five laps around this field. Go over there and practice the horse stance for half a sichen. Then do some leg stretching. After that, review the first style of Huashan Fist."
Xuan Shuang's anger, which had been building up for a long time, finally could not restrain himself. "Shifu," he shouted, "Are you playing with me? Every day I do leg stretching and running. I didn't learn how to run away. When are you going to seriously teach me how to fight the enemy? "
Li Yijie said, "To learn martial arts, the first thing you have to do is to have a good foundation. Only then can you practice martial arts steadily. For example, when building a house, every brick and every tile must be built firmly. Only then will your house not collapse. Your foundation was too poor. Even if you work hard these days, you won't be able to achieve it overnight. You still need to stay a few days … "Xuan Shuang impatiently said," Don't talk nonsense. Just tell me, how many days do I need? "
Li Yijie said, "Based on your current situation, you need about five or six months. Then you can start from the second style … "Xuan Shuang heard this. He did not know whether he wanted to laugh coldly or cry loudly. His eyebrows twitched. He looked like he was smiling but not smiling. Li Yijie said, "Why are you still standing here? Why don't you go quickly? "Xuan Shuang clenched his teeth and said," Okay … okay … I'll go! I'll go, okay? "As he said that, he turned around and ran out.
Li Yijie muttered to himself, "Xuan Shuang, this child, it's good to have aspirations, but he is still too weak to endure hardships and lacks willpower … not all the descendants of the imperial family are like that …" Lu Qian stepped forward and said, "Brother Li, don't look for excuses anymore. A few days ago Xuan Shuang injured his foot. You used that as evidence to prove your point. Now his foot has been healed. He has also been learning martial arts from you for a long time. Yet you can still suppress that matter in your heart and not say anything. You are really patient. "
Li Yijie was already annoyed. Listening to him, he was even more annoyed. He said, "These past few days, how can I have the opportunity to teach him well? Xiao Wangye has been pestering me endlessly. I … "Lu Qian said," Stop it. That Shangguan … that Cheng Jiahua is pestering me endlessly. What does it have to do with you? You obviously can't say anything and are deliberately stalling for time. This is not enough to make your reputation as a saint! You don't need to do useless work. "
Li Yijie's eyebrows were tightly knitted together. He said, "I … I'm not helping him escape. I think … this matter shouldn't be rushed. There will always be an opportunity to say it. "Lu Qian laughed coldly and said," That's right. If he knows, naturally there will be an opportunity! If you continue to drag things out, when His Majesty changes the edict and officially announces it to the world, everything will be too late. " Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the Shangguan Yaohua was looking at him sideways. He was listening attentively to their conversation. Immediately he turned his attention to the outside and shouted, "Hey, what are you listening to?"
The Shangguan Yaohua said, "Nobody wants to listen to you. Ben Wang only wants to ask you, what do you mean by what you said just now? What do you mean by changing the edict and appointing another crown prince? Speak! " Lu Qian said, "Ridiculous. Some people obviously don't want to listen to me, yet they still force me to speak. Isn't this self-contradictory?"
The Shangguan Yaohua said, "Don't be long-winded. Speak honestly to ben Wang." Lu Qian said, "Eavesdropping on other people's conversation and still acting so self-righteously. Some people's skin is really thicker than a pig's."
The Shangguan Yaohua said with a calm face, "Ben Wang is under imperial orders to protect the Lord Baylor Ling. I absolutely won't allow anyone to harm him. If you guys privately discuss treacherous schemes that harm him, ben Wang will not sit idly by. "
Lu Qian laughed coldly and said, "What a big tone! Could it be that you were a toad in your previous life, only knowing how to yawn all day long? "The Shangguan Yaohua scolded," Shut up! Answer ben Wang's question! " Lu Qian grabbed one of his empty sleeves and waved it back and forth in front of his eyes. He said, "Just based on your good-for-nothing appearance, what ability do you have to protect him? It's already good enough that you don't cause trouble for him. "
The Shangguan Yaohua had always regarded this as the greatest humiliation. He immediately flew into a rage and shouted, "Let go! Don't touch me! "He raised his palm and drew an arc in the air, chopping towards Lu Qian's neck. Lu Qian's wrist moved sideways and penetrated through the gap in his forearm. His palm, infused with internal energy, heavily struck Shangguan Yaohua's shoulder. He laughed and said, "Good disciple, why are you in such a hurry to finish your apprenticeship? You still have a lot to learn."
The Shangguan Yaohua staggered back a few steps, his face stiff and cold. He suddenly raised his hand, pulled out a sword from his waist, and chopped towards Lu Qian's neck. This move was extremely fast. Lu Qian's reaction was hasty and he only had time to let go of his sleeve. He took a step to the side and raised his hand to block the sword's edge, his palm tightly clenched.
