Chapter 147 Are you willing to practice martial arts with me?
But Xingxing invited him again and again enthusiastically: "Brother Yan, grandma really brought a lot. Auntie's cooking is also delicious. Come on. Xingxing will help you get it."
The old Taoist thought, his young master was born into a noble family, and although he had a hard life since he was a child because of the mold, he never missed a bite of delicious food. In addition, he usually didn't pay much attention to his appetite, and he was afraid that others would be infected with the mold, so he was afraid that the little girl would not be able to move him...
As a result, before the old Taoist priest could persuade Xingxing not to bother with him, he heard his young master say, "Okay."
The old Taoist priest turned his head suddenly, and he almost suspected that he had heard something wrong!
Wei Shiyan was somewhat uncomfortable. When he saw the old Taoist priest looking back at him suspiciously, he felt even more uncomfortable. He could only hide his emotions with a cold face: "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Xing Xing was oblivious to what was happening. She just came over happily and took Wei Shiyan's hand: "Let's go!"
The old Taoist stared at his young master in amazement. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he did not pull his hand away. He just walked out of the yard with the sword in one hand and Xingxing holding the other hand.
After a long while, Xing Xing turned around and saw that the old Taoist priest had not caught up with her, so she urged him, "Master Taoist priest, are you going?"
The old Taoist priest then woke up as if from a dream and quickly followed.
Xingxing carried Wei Shiyan all the way to the Wuming Taoist temple.
Mother Wei was standing in front of the hall, waiting for something to happen. Then she saw her granddaughter approaching with a very handsome boy.
The old Taoist priest followed behind them, slowly and leisurely.
Mrs. Wei was a little surprised: "Xingxing?"
Xing Xing let go and ran towards Grandma Wei: "Grandma, are you done with your worship?"
Mrs. Wei nodded and greeted the old Taoist priest, but she was at a loss as to how to address Wei Shiyan.
Xingxing took the initiative to introduce: "Grandma, this is Brother Yan that Xingxing has told you about many times."
Mrs. Wei was surprised.
She had heard Xingxing mention him several times, but she had never thought that the "shy" Brother Yan in Xingxing's words would look like this...
Huai'er and his friends were wandering around in the courtyard of the Taoist temple. When they heard the noise, they came over and saw Wei Shiyan. How could they describe it? A sense of crisis suddenly arose in their hearts, which came from the instinct of a brother.
Several brothers had an idea in their minds:
This boy is so handsome. I hope he won't kidnap their daughter Xing Xing in the future...
However, Mrs. Wei came to her senses and hurriedly invited the old Taoist to join the banquet: "Master Taoist, and this young master, this old woman brought some food made by my daughter-in-law..."
Wei Shiyan hesitated for a moment, but still stood there without moving.
But Mrs. Wei had heard Xingxing say before that her "Brother Yan" was rather shy and introverted, so she didn't care. She just enthusiastically took out the basket and handed it to the old Taoist priest.
"Oh, it smells so good." The old Taoist priest didn't bother to be polite with Mrs. Wei. He lifted the thick cotton cloth covering the basket, a look of surprise in his eyes.
Inside are two large white porcelain bowls.
A box of tofu was placed in a white porcelain bowl. The tofu was fried until fragrant, and the middle was hollowed out and stuffed with some mushrooms that they had dried in the fall. It was then poured with braised sauce and steamed. The aroma was so fragrant.
In another white porcelain bowl is a bowl of fragrant radish vermicelli meatballs.
"This is the cooking of my eldest daughter-in-law. She was worried that you might have some dietary restrictions, so she made vegetarian food..." Mrs. Wei said with a smile.
"You are so thoughtful, layman." The old Taoist smiled and thanked him. "I can tell from the smell that your daughter-in-law is a really good cook. I am so lucky to have such a good taste."
Mrs. Wei remembered something and added: "By the way, the oil used is also vegetable oil, Taoist priest, don't worry..."
The old Taoist priest laughed and said, "Don't worry, I don't mind eating vegetarian food."
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked ahead and was stunned.
It turned out that while they were talking, Huai Ge'er and his friends came over and stood right behind Mrs. Wei. The old Taoist priest met Huai Ge'er and his friends face to face.
The old Taoist took a breath of cool air.
For a moment, even the food that made him salivate with anticipation had no appeal to him anymore.
"These young friends are..."
Mrs. Wei quickly took Huai Ge'er and the others to meet the old Taoist priest: "...This is the Taoist priest who helped rescue your sister."
Huai'er and his friends bowed and thanked the old Taoist priest.
Fan Xingru had seen the old Taoist priest before, so he just followed suit and bowed.
The old Taoist priest was feeling very uncomfortable at the moment, so he simply said "wait a moment" and put the food box into the hall.
When he came back, the old Taoist priest looked a little more serious. He said to Huai Ge'er, "My dear friend, can I feel your bones?"
Huai Ge'er was shocked and stammered, "Ah? Touch, touch the bones?"
The old Taoist nodded: "Yes."
Out of trust in the old Taoist priest, Mrs. Wei said without hesitation: "Master, you are too polite. Please feel free to touch me!"
Although Huai Ge'er was a little confused, the other party saved his sister, so if he wanted to touch the bones, he might as well do it.
Huai Ge'er openly let the old Taoist priest pinch and pinch him all over his body.
It didn't hurt, but it felt a little weird.
Huai Ge'er just felt very confused.
But after touching the bones, the old Taoist priest was in a very good mood and laughed out loud: "Haha, not bad, not bad!"
He looked Huai Ge'er up and down with a very satisfied look in his eyes: "If I'm not mistaken, are you born with more strength than ordinary people, and your physical strength is also better than ordinary people?"
Huai Ge'er was a little surprised, and then he thought of another possibility: "Did Xingxing tell you that?"
Xing Xing blinked and fell into self-doubt: "Did Xing Xing say that?... It seems that Xing Xing didn't say that."
The old Taoist priest laughed out loud: "You don't need to tell me, little girl. I can guess it right after I see it. Your bones are the bones of a king that only appear once in a hundred years. Those with such bones are born to be good at martial arts!"
When the old Taoist said this, Huai'er's heart began to beat violently. He was afraid that the old Taoist was fooling him, so he confirmed again and again: "Really? Are you kidding me?"
Although Mrs. Wei didn't understand what "Ba Wang bone" meant, she was unhappy when she heard her grandson say that. She spat, "The Taoist priest is such a great man, why would he lie to a young boy like you!"
Huai Ge'er touched the back of his head and smiled innocently.
That’s right.
...Does that mean he is really born with a talent for martial arts?!
Practice martial arts!
When Huai Ge'er thought of the stories in the opera scripts about the omnipotent beings who could fly into the sky and hide on the ground, his heart began to beat wildly.
The old Taoist looked Huai'er up and down, and became more and more satisfied.
This child has a clear mind. Although he is a little older, he has the strength of a king. It is never too late to start learning martial arts!
He simply asked directly: "Boy, are you willing to practice martial arts with me?"
