Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland

Chapter 40 He doesn’t recognize me, but he is my master
"Beiyou, you are very good."

"You are both a warrior and a hunter. You will work hard in the black market from now on. If you encounter any trouble, just tell me."

Although Lu Beiyou is only a new martial artist and is still not worth mentioning compared to him, he can indeed be regarded as a young underachiever worthy of attention and support.

"Mr. Tang is in good health. It is the greatest help to us that you can continue to operate the black market."

The platform you can provide as leader is my opportunity... Lu Meng adapted a sentence in his mind to respond.

Of course he would not be so naive as to stab Old Tang in the face whenever something happened.

If you report too many troublesome things, you will become troublesome to yourself.

It’s just that Old Tang obviously found Lu Meng’s answer very useful.

"You are young, you have strength, and most importantly, you are polite and humble. You will definitely have a bright future in martial arts in the future." He kept silent about his previous assertion that Lu Meng had "no future" and continued to encourage the underachievers. if.

"I don't know if you know it clearly, but if you want to continue to improve, you have to work harder on your martial arts.

"Beiyou, don't blame me for speaking outright. You should also know that your sword skills are rough and you are actually a wild man. Why don't you learn boxing from me in the future?"

Listening to his words, he actually had the intention of accepting Lu Meng as his disciple.

——With the strength of the martial arts masters of the old Tang Dynasty, he is indeed qualified to be a martial artist's teacher.

The so-called martial arts master is a teacher who teaches and learns karma and solves doubts. Of course, strong strength is a prerequisite, but being able to speak well and teach others is the real skill.

This shows that he has recognized his own path and summarized successful experiences into routines that can be practiced and reproduced.

Although it may mislead others, in the end, I have my own experience.

Lu Meng once thought about why the title of level 40 in actual combat should be titled "teacher".

If he were to choose the name himself, he might as well just call him "Great Warrior"!Anyway, he didn't care about this when he was leveling up.

Later, he came to a simple conclusion, that is, the first person to take this title must be a teacher. He had many disciples and disciples, so everyone agreed and kept calling him "Teacher".

And the person who calls himself a great warrior becomes an alien, silently insisting on his title...

Now, Lu Meng stood with his hands folded, seemingly humble.

But he didn't want to become his teacher.

The masters and apprentices here are like knights and retinues in the Middle Ages, craftsmen and apprentices in city guilds.

With the collapse of ancient civilizations, systematic educational institutions such as schools and colleges have long ceased to exist. The transmission of knowledge often relies on word of mouth, and the traditional family inheritance and apprenticeship relationships have also slowly recovered.

It is no longer an era where even artificial knowledge barriers cannot stop information exchange and equitable development.

Nowadays, apprentices have to serve their masters for several years or even more than ten years. If they want to learn true skills, they are often kept hidden.

Lu Meng himself is obviously more comfortable and even faster when using the panel skill, and does not need a master riding on his head at all.

What's more, Old Tangtou is good at boxing, which is where his nickname "Iron Wing" comes from.

Perhaps for someone with Lao Tang's status, being willing to teach you is a huge opportunity. It doesn't matter what foundation you laid before, you just need to start over from scratch.

But for Lu Meng, it's just that he doesn't like being taught how to play games by designers.

He also doesn't like someone changing his life plan with just a casual word.

These thoughts have been rehearsed countless times in Lu Meng's mind, and at this moment, they just respond to the opportunity but can't act in an instant.

He immediately rejected Old Tang.

But the reasons he said were not what he had in mind.

But:

"Thank you Mr. Tang for your support, it's just a pity...

"I already have a teacher."

"Who is your respected master?" Old Tang frowned.

"The teacher doesn't let me mention his name to ordinary people," Lu Meng said calmly, "but obviously you, Mr. Tang, are an exception."

"My teacher is Lei Bo, Mr. Lei." He said a name that no one present had heard of.

"Lei Bai..." Old Tang searched for relevant memories in his heart.

"Teacher, he has also admired you for a long time. He also said that he hopes to have the opportunity to cooperate with Mr. Tang in the future."

Lu Meng looked solemn.

"It's getting late, so let's say goodbye first."

While Old Tang was still thinking and his attention was not on him, Lu Meng decisively ran away first.

Tie Bangtang was really surprised. What kind of person could be Lu Beiyou's teacher so that he could resist the temptation of becoming his apprentice?
Although being one's own apprentice means being bound together.

The reason why Old Tang wanted to take Lu Beiyou as his disciple was because he wanted to add a warrior to the black market.

But you have to know that this is not bad. Being his apprentice means you are at least the second-in-command in the black market. Even if you are not able to act unscrupulously, you can still be considered as the one who controls the wind and rain.

Unless a better option awaits this journey north.

The teacher he was talking about, Lei Bai, was at least the same martial artist as himself, or had a greater background behind him.

Is it Fangshi?But as far as he knew, there was no big shot named Lei in Fang City.

Unless it's those rumors...

At Old Tang's level, with his years of management at the hub, he also knew a lot of sporadic information.

Things are not as peaceful behind the scenes at the hub as they appear.

Old Tang looked at the young warrior who left, his back gradually becoming blurry and illusory in the dark night.

He found that he seemed to have never seen through this young man.

……

Leiber.

Names that never appeared.

Huo Buyang had never heard of it, but Lu Meng didn't mention it, so he didn't ask any more questions.

The words Lu Meng said to Old Tang just now, such as "I already have a teacher", were naturally made up, but they were just excuses.

It's just that Lu Meng said it so seriously. Old Tang didn't believe that someone dared to tell such a lie in front of him that would be exposed as soon as it was verified. Instead, he didn't think about it for a while.

But the person "Lei Bai" was not made up by Lu Meng.

He is the general contact person of the Lang Ninja Group stationed at the hub in the world background.

That is, the real owner of Liangshui Hongshang and Xizhen Tavern, and the immediate boss of "bartender" Wei Hong.

There is a high probability that he is also the mysterious person who taught Master Lu Yong how to make crossbows.

——That is, the maker of the crossbow in his hand.

It's also a coincidence.

The hand crossbow he used before was bought from the Xizhen Tavern, so it should also be the work of this person.

One is exquisite but flashy, the other is simple but contains hidden murderous intent.

Two crossbows with completely different styles, both made by the same person.

The headquarters of the Lang Ninja Group is in the north of the Holy Kingdom, and their activities in the south must be in a state of secret development.

But just the few clues they leaked were enough to scare Old Tang.

After all, although it is at a disadvantage, it is an organization that can at least give a powerful country like the Holy Kingdom a headache.

But Lu Meng was very concerned about it.

With the participation of these forces, what will happen to the hub?
