Chapter 8 Peerless Master
"Young master, our family has everything we need. Why do you want to go hunting with those people? It's very cold in the mountains at this time." At the Yang family, Jiang Nu persuaded Yang Chong while packing equipment for him.
In Jiang Nu's opinion, her young master's plan to go into the mountains to hunt was pure nonsense. The Yang family had no shortage of prey. What's more, it was hunting, sleeping in the open air. It was okay during the day, but it was very cold in the mountains at night, and there were insects and scorpions everywhere. Most people couldn't stand the hardship, but now, Yang Chong was asking for trouble.
"Hobby, hobby, little guy, you don't understand." Yang Chong laughed. He couldn't say that he went into the mountains to find a secret place to practice the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, right? So he could only classify all this as a hobby.
"Young master, do you have such a hobby?" Miss Jiang wanted to say something, but then she thought that those words might make the young master angry, so she could only swallow the words that were already at her throat, and her little face turned red.
It seemed that she swallowed the breath too loudly, and a wisp of air could not be swallowed, and it rushed directly to the tear glands, and in an instant her eyes became tearful.
"What's wrong? Why are you still crying?" Yang Chong pinched Jiang Nu's cheek. The girl's childishness dissipated between his fingers. Youth is indeed invincible.
"No, I didn't. Master, you must be careful. I heard that there are tigers and black bears in Dalong Mountain. Those beasts are very powerful. Even the most powerful hunter can get caught if he is not careful." Jiang Nu pushed Yang Chong's fingers away. She felt that although Yang Chong did not use much force, her cheek that was pinched was very hot. There were obviously more intimate times before, but the throbbing feeling just now was unforgettable. After all, she had to grow up.
"Don't worry. I might make a tiger skin skirt for you when the time comes." Yang Chong looked at Jiang Nu's slender waist. Although it was not as perfect as Jingwei's, it was also pleasing to the eye.
"Tiger skin skirt?" Jiang was slightly startled, unable to react. Why were they talking about tiger skin skirts again? And why would a girl like her wear such overbearing clothes?
"Well, it should be pretty good. Okay, I won't say any more. Just wait for me to come back at home. I might be gone for a long time this time." Yang Chong said.
This time Yang Chong is not just here for hunting. If he cannot master the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, he cannot easily leave Dalong Mountain. This damn time node does not give him any chance to develop. He actually encounters the world's top killer at the very beginning. Fortunately, Luo Wang has other plans instead of just stabbing him in the face. Otherwise, Yang Chong would have to think about whether he still has a chance to travel through time.
"Master, please be careful." Miss Jiang warned again.
"I got it, I got it. Are the things I want ready?" Yang Chong asked.
"A roast chicken, thirty kilograms of millet, a jar of wine, and a kilogram of salt are all ready. Young master, are these things going to be given to Uncle Li again?" asked Miss Jiang.
"The old man is waiting for these things, otherwise he might starve to death at any time." Yang Chong said.
"Young Master is such a good man." Jiang Nu praised, feeling that her young master was simply the best man in the world.
"Of course, I'm a very good person. Of course, I'm also a very smart person. Well, a very smart person." Yang Chong said without any reservation.
After saying goodbye to Yang Lin, Yang Chong walked out of the house with his things. As for Ms. Jiang, he forced her into the room. He wanted to deliver something to Old Man Li, so he might talk about some secrets that even Ms. Jiang couldn't hear.
Not long after, Yang Chong came to a slightly dilapidated house. This was the only house without a courtyard wall in Xiliu Village, and Old Man Li lived here.
"You are finally here, I would have starved to death if you hadn't come." Yang Chong was greeted by a lame old man with disheveled hair and beard. Under his ragged clothes, there were scars that were difficult to hide. Obviously, he was a man with a story, at least that's what Yang Chong thought. "Aren't you still alive and well?" Yang Chong threw the thing to Old Man Li, and his seemingly powerless hand steadily caught the dozens of kilograms of things.
Yang Chong always felt that this old guy had a big secret, so he was able to build friendship with him over the years and gave him a lot of food and drinks. Even though he had not yet awakened his memories of his past life, he still wanted to leave Xiliu Village and go to Xinzheng, so martial arts became the thing he wanted most, and Old Man Li made him, who was still young at the time, see such hope.
The most important thing is that the lame old man does have some abilities, and sometimes he can even pretend to be a master, which makes Yang Chong more and more convinced that he must have a big secret.
"He's dying, dying, he won't live for many days." Old man Li nimbly entered the room, not looking like an old man at all. He swiftly opened the things that Yang Chong brought, and without even washing his hands, he directly tore off a chicken leg and started chewing it.
"I'm going into the mountains to hunt with the village's hunting team this time. I guess I won't be back until it snows." Yang Chong followed him into the room, pulled over a mat made of wheat straw and sat down.
Old man Li only cared about eating and drinking.
"I've suffered a huge loss in the past few years." Yang Chong's temples twitched when he saw this. What an old fool.
Old man Li was only concerned with eating and drinking, and Yang Chong was too lazy to say anything more. After all, he had been losing money for so many years, so this little bit didn't matter.
It seemed that they had almost finished eating. Old Man Li suddenly changed his cunning and rogue look and asked Yang Chong: "Do you want to see the wonders of Xinzheng, or even the whole world?"
"Are you some hidden master?" Yang Chong looked at the lame old man in front of him with messy hair and beard who seemed a little unfamiliar. Could it be that I really had a keen eye for talent all those years and discovered a master in this mountain village?
The image of an old beggar emerged in his mind. Perhaps he would take out volumes of peerless martial arts secrets at the next moment. Although he already had the Nine Yin Scriptures, who would complain that he had too many martial arts skills?
"What peerless master?" Old man Li frowned.
"Is it the kind that can pull out a bunch of martial arts secrets at any time, such as the Nine Yang Divine Art, Six Meridians Divine Sword, Great Shift of the Universe, Tathagata Palm? No, I really don't have this." Yang Chong asked excitedly.
“I’ve never heard of Nine Yang Magic Art or Tathagata Palm. As for martial arts, I was not as good as you are now when I was young.” said old man Li.
"You finally admitted it. For so many years, you pretended to be a master in front of me. I thought you were some hidden master. For this reason, I gave you so many things, and you accepted them with pleasure every time. Now you tell me that you are not as good as me?" Yang Chong widened his eyes. Although he is no longer short of martial arts, this old man has cheated him of many things in the past six or seven years. It can be said that the old guy can live so long, which has a lot to do with the things given by Yang Chong.
"Have I ever told you that I'm the kind of expert you think I am? Have I ever told you that I know those Nine Yang Magic Skills and Tathagata Palms that you mentioned?" Old man Li looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. Anyway, he had already eaten all the things that Yang Chong had sent him over the years. What could Yang Chong do to him?
"Fuck, you are shameless. You even lied to a child. I was only ten years old at that time. Ten years old!" Yang Chong, who felt that his IQ was insulted, pretended to be extremely sad and angry.
"Hey, there are so many things in your house, and I haven't eaten you out of poverty. Is it necessary to do this? But do you really want to learn martial arts?" Old man Li gnawed the chicken leg in his hand and wiped his beard, making his messy beard shiny.
