Chapter 148 I can be your companion in the future

Huai'er's heart was about to jump out of his throat!

Practice martial arts!

This is actually a wish that has been weighing on his heart for many years!

He couldn't help but look at Grandma Wei: "Grandma..."

Mrs. Wei did not agree immediately, but said: "You are currently studying in school. If you want to practice martial arts, it will definitely affect your studies. This is not a small matter."

A hint of hesitation also flashed across Huai'er's face.

Fan Xingru had heard from his sister about the old Taoist's skills. He excitedly stepped forward and nudged Huai Ge'er with his elbow: "This place is not too far from the county town. You can come here to practice martial arts in the morning and go to school in the afternoon. It's just that the progress is a little slow, but it's okay. I heard from my sister that some military officers in the county town have invited coaches to their homes, so they can practice martial arts in the morning and study in the afternoon."

Huai'er's eyes suddenly lit up.

He looked at Mrs. Wei with some anticipation.

Xing Xing also shook Grandma Wei's sleeve and said, "Grandma, if Big Brother wants to practice martial arts, just agree to it."

After being persuaded by her grandchildren, Mrs. Wei had already softened her heart. Besides, the one who wanted to teach Huai'er martial arts was an old Taoist priest whom she trusted deeply. In fact, Mrs. Wei did not object to this at all.

She relaxed in the expectant eyes of her grandchildren: "Alright...but I have a condition, Huai'er, you want to practice martial arts, you can't practice and then lose your temper and stop."

When Huai Ge'er heard that his grandmother had agreed, he was so excited that he nodded repeatedly: "Of course, grandma, just rest assured!"

Xing Xing also cheered: "Grandma is so nice!"

Fan Xingru looked at the old Taoist priest eagerly and asked, "Master, please look at me and see if I have the potential to learn martial arts."

The old Taoist priest looked Fan Xingru up and down, and shook his head at Fan Xingru's expectant eyes.

Fan Xingru looked shocked.

Inspired by Fan Xingru, the other brothers of the Yu family were eager to try and asked the old Taoist priest whether they had the potential to learn martial arts.

Even Xing Xing was watching eagerly, probably wanting to practice along as well.

But the old Taoist priest was very cruel and ruthless.

He shook his head: "You all have average aptitude. If you practice martial arts, it's fine to strengthen your body, but there's no need to learn it specifically."

A group of teenagers were deeply shocked.

Xingxing tugged at the sleeve of the old Taoist priest's robe: "Master Taoist, where is Xingxing? Where is Xingxing?"

The old Taoist priest pondered for a while and pinched Xingxing's little arm.

Xing Xing looked at the old Taoist priest with full expectation.

Just now, the Taoist priest pinched the eldest brother's arm and praised him for having such and such bones, which were suitable for practicing martial arts. Now the Taoist priest pinched her arm as well. Is she also suitable for practicing martial arts?

Xing Xing thought happily.

The old Taoist priest shook his head and said with a hint of smile: "Your bones are rare."

Xingxing widened her eyes in excitement.

The old Taoist priest added slowly: "Those who are rare are not suitable for martial arts training."

Xing Xing felt like she was struck by lightning, and her whole body seemed to be frozen. Then she reacted and threw herself towards Po Wei with a scream, hugged Po Wei's legs, and buried her head in Po Wei, unable to get up.

Wei Shiyan looked at Mo Ming and felt a little displeased.

He thought with a blank expression on his face, Uncle Tao is already old, but he still teases Xingxing, how disrespectful of his elders!

Huai'er said quickly: "Xingxing, don't worry, you are still young and your body is not fully developed yet. When your body is fully developed, I will come to teach you after I have learned it."

Xing Xing raised her head from Mrs. Wei and asked, "Really?"

Huai Ge'er promised repeatedly.

Even Wei Shiyan coughed and said, "I can teach you later."

Only then did Xingxing burst into laughter.

After discussing the time for martial arts training with Huai'er, Wei Pozi and the others went down the mountain.

The old Taoist priest was obviously in a very good mood. He hummed a little tune and went to the main hall to tidy up a little.

When he came out, he saw that his young master had not left. He was standing under the eaves of the main hall, leaning against the wall, holding a sword in one hand, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Let's go. This food smells really good. It will taste better if we heat it up a little." The old Taoist priest called Wei Shiyan.

Wei Shiyan stood up straight: "Before we left the capital, my parents wanted to bring you some young guards. Didn't you say you didn't want to accept any disciples?"

The old Taoist priest didn't care: "I've seen the young guards that the master has chosen, and they are just average. I'm old enough to teach you. It would be too tiring to teach them... Yu Yonghuai is different. He has a rare bone structure. If I teach him, I'll be taking advantage."

After a pause, the old Taoist's eyes fell on Wei Shiyan, and he softened a little, "Besides, the Yu Yonghuai brothers all have the appearance of being a dragon and a phoenix among men, and he is not too old. If he learns martial arts with you, he can be your companion in the future."

He had another consideration that he hadn't expressed.

He couldn't see the fate of the little girl Xingxing, and he didn't know whether she was the one who would break the impasse in the prophecy.

However, her older brother was learning martial arts here, and she couldn't avoid this relationship.

No matter what, just tie him up first!

When the old Taoist priest thought about this relationship, he felt that he was simply the embodiment of wisdom and was killing two birds with one stone!

Wei Shiyan said stiffly, "I don't need a companion. Uncle Tao, have you forgotten that I still have the mold on me? If I come into contact with it for too long, I might fall off the mountain when I go down."

The old Taoist priest said, "He has the Overlord Bone, which is an extremely fierce bone. As long as you don't come into direct contact with it, there's nothing wrong with the swords. His Overlord Bone can withstand that little bit of evil."

The old Taoist said earnestly, "Young Master, you are just too kind-hearted. You always feel that your bad luck will bring misfortune to others. But in fact, it is not your fault to bear this bad luck. You don't need to worry so much."

Wei Shiyan pursed his lips, turned away, and stopped looking at the old Taoist priest.

He strode forward: "... Let's go back."

The old Taoist priest followed with a smile, carrying a basket and said, "Let's go, let's go."

…

Several brothers from the Yu family returned to Nantuo Village with Mrs. Wei Xingxing.

Fan Xingru had never been here before, but she followed the Yu family with great interest.

Knowing that her sons would be back today, Li Chunhua, with her mother-in-law's permission, killed an old hen at home early, and used the dried mushrooms that had been sun-dried in the autumn to make a fragrant hen soup.

There were also the tofu boxes that Li Chunhua had made for the old Taoist priest earlier. She made a lot more and filled a large plate with them.

When Mrs. Wei and Brother Huai returned, there were already a lot of dishes on the table.

However, when Li Chunhua saw Fan Xingru coming to their house as a guest, she knew that this was the young master of the Fan family who had helped them find Xingxing. She also felt that the food was too peasant-like and was not enough to entertain guests.
