he walks in the world

Chapter 28
After leaving Shuixi County and entering the border of central Sichuan, Du Ruo really realized the saying "There is no rain for three days and it is sunny". Three days of ferrying on the river, a full three days, and the addition of back and forth when there is no rain But two hours.

On the fourth day, there was already a faint musty smell soaked in rainwater on the boat. Du Ruo and the others were considered to have reached the Lianwu Lake area, with mountains and rivers and canyons. If it wasn't for the fact that Luo Dabeard often shipped goods, he would have known about this area. , I am afraid that getting lost in it is a very normal thing. Thinking of the fact that the government has nothing to do with the thirteen villages, this natural moat accounts for most of the reasons!

The canopy boat moved slowly between the canyons. There was little fog on the river in the heavy rain, but the vision was blurred. Looking up, there was a vast fog from the mountainside in the majestic mountains. .

Du Ruo was leaning against the window of the ship, some charcoal fire was still burning under the table, there was faint rain and mist falling on his face, the tips of his hair were slightly moist, his eyes were far away, and his thoughts were farther away. At this time, Meng Qingping was biting an apple, holding He walked over with a white robe in his arms, put it on Du Ruo, and said, "Boss Du, you made this robe well. How did you come up with it? You even sewed a hat on it, it just looks a bit like your daughter's house." wearing."

Du Ruo gently stretched his hands into his sleeves, straightened his crumpled robe, and said, "I'm weak. Even in May, when it's raining heavily, I still feel a little cold, and I'm prone to migraines, so I thought In order to protect my head, I thought of adding a brow-length hat on top."

"That's good too. Cover your head, and you can hide yourself on special occasions." Meng Qingping took a bite of an apple, then chewed and said, "However, Boss Du, your body is really weak. You can find an apple." Cultivate your inner strength and mental method that suits you. At your age, you don't want to achieve any achievements, but it is still very useful to strengthen your body."

"Inner strength method?" Du Ruo shook his head slightly, and said, "You also know the preciousness of inner strength method, and it really can't be bought with money. .”

"That's true," Meng Qingping said, "You can only get it if you can join a certain sect and be recognized. However, with your habits, you are probably not willing to be subject to so many restrictions on entering a certain sect."

Du Ruo is actually very interested in martial arts, but as Meng Qingping said, at his age, his roots have already been settled. Even if he has acquired inner strength and mental skills, it is difficult to practice without a great opportunity. He joined a certain school for the sake of inner strength and mentality to give others a saddle, and it was indeed too embarrassing for him.

Du Ruo chuckled, but didn't speak.

Because there was a brazier under Du Ruo's feet, and Meng Qingping didn't feel cold, so he sat a little farther away from Du Ruo, raised his legs, and said suddenly: "Hey, Boss Du, how about I introduce you to my father, you know?" Yes, my father did not create any sects, so there are not so many rules, you worship my father as a teacher, and with his character, he will definitely teach you profound martial arts secrets!"

The more Meng Qingping talked, the more he felt that it made sense. He slapped his thigh and said, "That's it, let me tell you, my father is a man who admits death. I'll go back and tell my father that you saved my life, and then just happened to You admire my father very much, and we share the same interests, so I took my father’s place as an apprentice. What did you say, raw rice is cooked, and with my father’s temper, even if he doesn’t want to, he will recognize you by holding his nose How about this disciple, do you want to do it?"

Looking at the enthusiastic Meng Qingping, Du Ruo suddenly felt very sorry for Meng Ziyun, why did such a foolish thing happen to him!
However, Mencius Yun's method is indeed a good one.

However, Du Ruo shook his head and refused, saying: "Qing Ping, although you and I have known each other not long ago, we have hit it off, I don't want to use affection for profit, do you understand?"

"Oh, it's okay," Meng Qingping said indifferently, "Which one of us is with whom? I've already told you that you've been my only friend for so many years. Anyway, I can't inherit my father's mantle." , he scolds me every day as a waste, why don't you help me share the pain?"

There was no expression on Du Ruo's pale face, but there was indeed a hint of emotion in his eyes. After a long while, he still sighed and said, "To tell you the truth, last time I was killed by those two from Yijianmen, I am now I am very yearning for martial arts, and I am very moved by your proposal, but I really can't do this, well, Qingping, stop this matter here, and don't bring it up again in the future!"

After finishing speaking, Du Ruo opened the "University" on the table and started to read it slowly.

Meng Qingping bit the apple, but stared straight at Du Ruo for a long while, then turned his head to look at the river, biting the apple hard, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, Du Ruo gently closed the "University" on the table, then turned around and asked, "Oh, by the way, Qingping, your father is a famous hero in Sichuan, you have followed him since childhood, you must have been fascinated by it." , do you know how to distinguish the masters in this arena?"

"Distinguish?" Meng Qingping turned his head and said, "It's easy to distinguish. Either fight or fame, just like my father. Many people know his reputation under the name of Meng Ziyun in Sichuan, and they all know that he is a master. "

"That's not what I mean," Du Ruo said, "I mean, there can be a clear division of realms in one journey of martial arts, for example, first rank and second rank!"

Meng Qingping smiled and said: "How is this possible? At most, there is one kind. There are three thousand ways in the world. Those who choose one of them to enter the Tao are the innate masters, and this is the only realm. But, what is the way? No one knows, but only knows that there is an essential difference between a congenital master and an ordinary warrior, so he is a master."

Du Ruo frowned slightly, and said, "But, I read that some heroes in the scriptures mentioned a first-class master... What does this mean?"

Meng Qingping shook his head, and said: "This is not an evaluation of the realm of martial arts. How could there be a division of realms? It all depends on fame and performance. Just like the Zhuo Bufan you met before, he relied on his name of the Twelve Heroes. First, everyone in the world will sigh, this person is also first-class in Jianghu, but others say that my father is not the first-class in the world, but you have to let Zhuo Bufan try to fight with my father, I can guarantee that he will be beaten to death. My mother doesn't even know her."

"The sentence of being first-class in the world is respect for others. Think about it, if martial arts are divided into realms and can be judged by realms, then why are there so many fights in this world? When you want to fight, just show it Realm is enough, but also play a fart!"

"What's more, everyone's strength is really hard to judge, just like the people in the Thirteen Villages. If it is really about martial arts, my father alone can pick all of them, but the fact is that my father treats them all. I’m very afraid, because the Thirteen Villages actually escaped from the Five Poison Sect in Miaojiang, Yunnan, and the methods of using poison are very high, and if you don’t pay attention, you will die without a whole body.”

"There are many external factors in the struggle between the rivers and lakes, just like the so-and-so in Yijianmen some time ago, just that woman, rushed into your Juyi gang and started killing, if it wasn't for the iron-cutting sword in her hand , How many people can she kill? It's no wonder you don't get hacked to death by your Juyi Gang!"

Meng Qingping sighed, and said: "For the evaluation of a person's martial arts, most of them are based on one thing for comparison, such as my father, just because of one sentence, he is almost invincible by nature, and many people who want to challenge him are discouraged. , because this is really recognized by the masters, and for example, Senior Mu, the head of the Thirteen Villages, and my father also admitted it personally. With Senior Mu's poisonous methods, if the two of them fight to the death, the winning rate is definitely [-]-[-], but Well, if the Grandmaster evaluates Senior Mu, he will definitely not get such a high evaluation from my father, the reason is very simple, the poison of Senior Mu is almost useless to the Grandmaster!"

Du Ruo frowned deeply. Although Meng Qingping's words did not break his worldview, they opened another door for him.

"Then, Qingping, according to what you said, even if I have missed the best time to practice martial arts, it is not impossible to achieve certain achievements in the world?"
