Chapter 587 A Dream of Nanke (Part 2)
"How did things turn out this way?"
Looking at the three people standing by the lake, gesturing earnestly, Xiang Shaolong was confused and puzzled.
Didn't he just stumble upon Fusu's world by accident and stop by to check on him? How did he end up... becoming the teacher of three little ones?
Let's rewind to the time when Fusu said he would give him advice.
For some reason, Xiang Shaolong was led astray by Fusu. Wanting to prove himself, he asked seriously, "What idea? Tell me."
Fusu circled around him twice, his tone relaxed: "It's very simple. You said you're my senior master, so theoretically, you must know everything I know, right?"
Xiang Shaolong nodded. "That's right."
"So in other words, I should have learned everything you know?"
Xiang Shaolong thought for a moment and said, "Indeed."
"Very good," Fusu clapped his hands lightly, "Then show me what you can do, and let me see if I can do it?"
"A display?" Xiang Shaolong sensed something was off.
Before he could figure it out, Fusu interrupted his thoughts, saying confidently, "That's right! How can I know if you're just all talk and no action if you don't show me? I must have some skills to grow this tall. If you don't have skills, why should you be my senior master?"
"Logically speaking, while a senior master might not necessarily be more skilled than a master, shouldn't he at least be more knowledgeable, judging from the way he's addressed?"
"Hmm?" Upon hearing this, Xiang Shaolong couldn't help but smile. What a great opportunity to make Gao Yao's apprentice think he was even more capable!
Haha, he wasn't taking advantage of Fusu's amnesia; he was just fulfilling his junior nephew's wish!
"OK!"
Xiang Shaolong nodded, stood in front of the three of them, and eagerly asked, "What do you want to see?"
Zhao Tuo and Wu Rui exchanged a glance, their guard down considerably. This guy, so easily fooled by the eldest son, was nothing to fear.
There's an old saying that goes, "Like father, like son."
Don't be fooled by Zhao Tuo and Wu Rui's seemingly simple-minded demeanor in front of Fusu. When dealing with outsiders, especially when trying to deceive them, they are remarkably in sync.
So, Xiang Shaolong, who had only simply demonstrated a set of fist techniques, then, amidst the cheers of the three, demonstrated a set of sword techniques, and then, amidst their praise, demonstrated his previous body movements, followed by body tempering techniques, stargazing techniques...
By the time Xiang Shaolong realized what was happening, he had already gone beyond simply demonstrating; he had picked and chosen, teaching all the three of them what they wanted to learn.
From demonstration to teaching, watching the three little ones practice so well, Xiang Shaolong felt that he couldn't be blamed for teaching them everything in such a short time, pouring his heart and soul into it.
Because it wasn't just him who demonstrated it; the three of them also demonstrated their health exercises and swordsmanship. The talented and well-behaved child looked at him with admiration. Who wouldn't be confused?
"Senior Uncle, do you think I'm doing this right?"
Fusu suddenly turned his head, looking at him expectantly with a pair of big, watery eyes. Xiang Shaolong instantly lost all his hesitation and happily stepped forward to give him guidance.
Gao Yao didn't get to enjoy that kind of treatment, hehe—
From the afternoon until the sun began to set, Xiang Shaolong was still reluctant to stop teaching, but he also felt the pull of time and space.
"I have to go now."
Xiang Shaolong spoke with some regret. He had entered this world by accident, and he knew it was rather fragile. But he hadn't expected it to be so fragile as to reject him so quickly. He blamed himself for being too powerful!
Where are you going?
Fusu and the other two stopped what they were doing and looked at him with some reluctance.
Xiang Shaolong sighed and patted his head: "I need to go back to where I belong."
"Will I ever see you again?" Fusu was even more reluctant to part, as he hadn't yet exhausted his resources.
Xiang Shaolong's heart stirred, and he patted him on the shoulder with emotion: "We will meet. Fusu, you are so outstanding, we will definitely meet in the future."
How can someone who learns stargazing in just two hours not be considered a prodigy?
Xiang Shaolong was somewhat annoyed. He should have said that he was Fusu's master. He really wanted to snatch this disciple!
"Uncle-Master, I will miss you."
Fusu looked at him longingly, and Zhao Tuo and Wu Rui behind her quickly added, "Yes, yes, we will all miss you."
"They are all good children."
Xiang Shaolong was deeply moved. He rummaged through his pockets and pulled out a whole bunch of good stuff, handing it over: "This is a set of military battle formations that I developed myself, this is a more universally applicable sword technique, and this is soft armor that can withstand attacks from firearms..."
Fusu and the other two looked at each other, and sure enough, there were more good things!
"Thank you, Uncle-Master! You're so kind!"
"Don't worry, Uncle-Master, we will take good care of the eldest son!"
"Uncle-Master, please take care!"
The pulling sensation intensified, and Xiang Shaolong emptied his pockets. Finally, he waved to the three of them and said, "Take care, and we'll see you in the future!"
Then, it disappeared right before the three of them.
"Is he really from the future?"
As soon as Xiang Shaolong disappeared, Zhao Tuo's expression changed instantly, and he looked at the place where Xiang Shaolong had vanished with some confusion.
"Who knows?" Fusu shrugged indifferently, looking at the things in his hand and revealing a smile. "Who cares where they came from? Anyway, I have them."
“That’s true,” Wu Rui looked down, somewhat curious, “Young Master, is he really your senior master?”
“It won’t hurt to call him that,” Fusu said casually. “Besides, I don’t even know his name.”
"Um... I think he mentioned it," Zhao Tuo said uncertainly, "Xiang... what was it again?"
Zhao Tuo looked at Wu Rui, who shook her head blankly. "I was too busy memorizing the moves."
Zhao Tuo nodded. Who wouldn't? Of course, one's mind should remember important things! And since no one knows where he came from or when he will leave, naturally all one's attention is focused on what he is teaching.
Thinking about it this way, I feel a little guilty.
"It's alright!" Fusu waved his hand. "Just treat him as his senior uncle!"
Zhao Tuo and Wu Rui nodded. That would work too. Anyway, he always seemed happy when he heard that!
At this point, Xiang Shaolong lost his name.
Gazing at the sunset's reflection on the lake, and then at the various precious books and items in her hands, Wu Rui's voice was ethereal: "It feels like a dream..."
Fusu put his arm around their shoulders and said, "That must have been a beautiful dream. I loved it and I hope we can have another one."
Zhao Tuo: "Me too."
...
"Old Gao! Old Gao! Guess what I'm going to do..."
“You’re back,” Gao Yao said lazily, lying on the recliner. “Male mother.”
"Who wants to be a male mother!"
Xiang Shaolong, who had been approaching, jumped three feet away and shouted that he refused.
Gao Yao shook the cradle beside him, looked at the sleeping baby inside with his eyes closed, and glanced at him sideways: "Not a male mother, so you've given everything away?"
"What... wait..." Xiang Shaolong paused for a moment, then realized what he meant and his eyes widened instantly. "This was also part of your plan? Am I your backup plan?!"
Gao Yao blinked innocently, "Hmm... how can it not count?"
