Chapter 199 How Ironic

The master and the disciple chatted very casually.

Because both parties wanted to get to know each other, they were very relaxed when chatting.

After chatting for about an hour, it seemed like we had met too late.

Now the second brother is somewhat glad that he met him on the road, otherwise, Yan Shenjue’s information would be extremely wrong.

Because the elder man is obviously a person who still has ambitions for fame and fortune.

Of course he is too.

So the two of them had a really good chat.

It's not that they won't serve the country and the people, but they will never serve the country and the people selflessly and without asking for anything in return. They all want to be in high positions and hold power, and they don't think it's cool to be crazy and wanton.

To restrain one's temper, or to be self-disciplined in order to achieve one's goals, is something they recognize as a sacrifice.

So drunkards and the like should just be an illusion.

At this time, seclusion should be just a retreat to advance? Or a strategic retreat?

But the elder didn't say anything, probably because the time was not right and he didn't need to or it was not convenient to know, so he didn't ask in detail.

So he was thinking that maybe his two senior brothers were also people like him, who looked like gentlemen on the outside, but were actually strategic, resourceful and scheming people in private.

Yan Shenjue probably didn't have a close relationship with him, so only a superficial impression was left.

He felt that the child Yan Shenjue gave him a deep sense of contradiction.

He has a very sharp grasp of the world, and can understand extroverted people like Doctor Yuan, but he has no idea what to do with relatively introverted people like Mr. Yuan, and he seems to have no idea about some very daily things.

He is indeed a very strange person.

As soon as I thought of Doctor Yuanshen, Doctor Yuanshen came over.

At this moment, the two of them had already chatted for a long time and then took a break with some tea.

Doctor Yuan asked, "Old Yuan, I heard you accepted a disciple?"

"That's true," said the elder, "but I'm not very satisfied."

Doctor Yuan Shen naively comforted him: "It's almost enough. You can keep him as a disciple to relieve your boredom."

"Well," said the elder, "I just said that Xiao Jue is not my disciple, and I didn't teach him anything. But Rong'er, he doesn't need me to teach him anything... He learned it by himself. It's really annoying to think about it."

Doctor Yuan: “……?”

The second elder brother said modestly: "Master, you are too kind. I have only studied for three years, but I have wasted three years. I am not even sure I can pass the county examination."

"There are still three or four months left, which is enough," said the elder. "A genius doesn't need to compare his time with those mediocre people."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly knocked his head and said, "Huh? Wait, isn't the exam going to be held in February next year the county exam?"

The second brother cooperated with his performance: "Yes, Master."

"Master is getting old and confused," said the elder, "I thought it was the college entrance examination!"

Doctor Yuan: “……?”

His show was so roundabout that even the straightforward Doctor Yuan took a long time to figure it out... So what Mr. Yuan meant was that with Tang Shirong's current level, it would be no problem for him to pass the examination to become a student. Even if he wanted to pass the examination to become a scholar, it would only take three or four months of study?

Is this what you mean?

Although he was shown off, Doctor Yuanshen was not angry. After all, he felt that this matter had nothing to do with him.

So he said, "I think the effect of your medicine will be almost gone by the twelfth month. If you finish the game in February next year, your body should be fine! You can hold on!"

The second brother said, "Thank you, second uncle."

The elder Yuan said again: "I heard that you made a bet with Xinbao?"

Doctor Yuanshen nodded.

Elder Yuan said, "When the time comes, you will call Xinbao Master, what will Rong'er call you? What will Xiaojue call you?"

He was just teasing him, but Doctor Yuanshen didn't notice he was being teased. He pondered for a moment, "I don't know. How about we discuss our own issues?! Tang Xiaoer!! Anyway, I would rather die than call you Uncle Master!"

The elder man laughed and said nothing more.

Doctor Yuan Shen took the pulse and left. The second brother smiled and said, "Second uncle has a very lovely personality."

The elder nodded and said, "I think when Xinbao grows up, he might be very similar to him. He's just smart when it comes to medicine, but a little dumb at other times."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Yes," the second elder brother couldn't help but laugh, "Xinbao is very well behaved, but a little silly. However, Xinbao is not only smart in medicine, she is also very smart in matters of plants and trees. She just doesn't like to study. She wrote a letter to my father yesterday, which was very difficult for the little girl. I still complained about it when I thought about it today."

The elder Yuan said in surprise: "Xinbao can actually write letters now?"

"It's not really a letter. It's just a few words," the second brother said with a smile, "one word is as big as a fist, but my father keeps it like a treasure."

He remembered and asked him, "What did Xinbao mean by 'wife sword sad'? I thought it was just a child's words, but when I asked it this morning, it seemed like there was some secret behind it from the way they looked."

The elder man's smile disappeared.

He was silent for a long time before he said, "It's okay to tell you about this. Now that you know it, you should pay more attention to it in the future."

After saying this, he was lost in thought for a long time before he slowly said, "Actually, I never thought that Xiao Jue would become like this. He looks... like an ordinary child."

What does it mean to be almost like an ordinary child?

The second brother was puzzled.

The elder said with a gloomy expression, "I don't know martial arts, and I don't understand these things about martial arts. I just heard that the sword technique they practiced is called Ai Mo Sword. I heard that it is the only sword technique in the world that can produce sword light, and it is very powerful. It is said that the person who created it had a miserable life. After that, others practiced it to madness, but they could never master it. Then someone killed his wife and children and actually mastered it. After that, many people followed suit..."

This sword technique is extremely powerful and is coveted by everyone in the martial arts world. This is because there was a man who killed his wife and children to practice it first. Therefore, due to rumors, more than one person wanted to hone his mind through this crazy method... So gradually, this evil name, the Sword of Killing Wife to Prove the Way, spread.

Yan Shenjue's father was a crazy and perverted sword fanatic. He claimed to be a gentleman and said that he could not bear to kill his wife. It happened that his son Yan Shenjue was unlucky and was not liked by his family, so he used this son to practice swordsmanship.

The most disgusting thing was that he felt that if he had no feelings for this son, then when it came time to "kill his son", he would not be able to temper his state of mind.

So, he was nice to his son at first, and when he gradually developed admiration for him, he suddenly turned against him, locked him up in a small room, and used him to practice sword skills.

Because he was afraid that he would be killed immediately and he would not be able to practice sword skills and waste this opportunity, he used him as a human target, attacking him again and again, observing his pain when he was on the verge of death, and tempering his own state of mind... One imprisonment lasted for several months! And this torture was not even repeated.

When he found that he really couldn't hold on and was about to die, he put him back, gave him medical treatment, and did everything he could to be nice to him, making him think that he was possessed and he didn't really want to hurt him... When he finally forgave him, another nightmare began.

When he was finally found, the six-year-old child was as thin as a cat, with sword holes all over his body, new wounds overlapping old ones. The new wounds were only two or three inches deep, but there was not even much bleeding!! His father even looked innocent, thinking that he was much better than those who killed their wives and children, saying that his son was so unlucky, but he still spared his life, which made him a kind father!!

No one thought that Yan Shenjue would survive, but he did.

The elder said: "Do you know why? Because he has mastered the Aimo sword technique."

He sneered repeatedly: "His crazy father has been madly pursuing this path all his life. He has tried every possible way for decades, but he has not even touched the edge... But Xiao Jue, a child who is only six years old, actually realized the most miserable thing in life and practiced this sword of sorrow that is greater than the death of one's heart! How ironic! How ironic!!"
