Chapter 47 Visiting Tong Yuan
Bingzhou, Penglai Mountain.
Qin Mo rode the White Dragon Horse all the way from Xiangping County to this place, accompanied by ten Youyun Iron Cavalrymen.
It’s not that Qin Mo wants to show off, or that he really needs the protection of cavalry. It’s just that the world is like this. There are many people who hate him, and bringing cavalry can dissuade many people from thinking so.
Saves a lot of trouble.
At the foot of the mountain, someone built a simple teahouse for passers-by to rest.
There were many players sitting in groups of three or four inside the teahouse. When they heard the sound of horse hooves, they all looked up and saw Qin Mo and his party appear on the official road.
"It's Qin Mo!"
Qin Mo is already a household name, not to mention the iconic White Dragon Horse.
"Wow, so majestic." Some people envied.
"Bah, why are you showing off? It's just a game, but you're obsessed with it." Some people are jealous.
"Could Qin Mo also be here to look for the gun prodigy Tong Yuan?" someone worried.
"Not necessarily. I heard that Qin Mo is an expert in swordsmanship. Considering his status as the governor of Liaodong, I think it is more likely that he is here for Zhao Yun. Is he going to visit him three times?" someone analyzed.
Tong Yuan, also known as the Penglai Spear God, has three disciples: Zhang Xiu, the Spear King of the North and Marquis of Wancheng; Zhang Ren, the Spear King of Yizhou and Xichuan; and the last one is Zhao Yun.
His marksmanship is unparalleled.
Therefore, it is not surprising at all that so many players gather at the foot of Penglai Mountain.
Some of them wanted to become Tong Yuan's apprentice because of his reputation as the God of Spear; others wanted to recruit Zhao Yun, the only one who had not yet left the mountain, on the orders of their boss.
Unfortunately, nothing was achieved.
Qin Mo's arrival immediately caused a shock.
Regardless of envy or jealousy, no one can deny Qin Mo's status as a big dragon. The advantages he possesses are unmatched by other players.
Qin Mo didn't even stop at the teahouse and went straight up the mountain.
However, the ten Youyun Iron Cavalrymen who were accompanying them stayed in the teahouse and found two tables to sit down. They all looked straight ahead, with neat military appearances, and were also very eye-catching.
The tea shop owner naturally welcomed us warmly.
…
Qin Mo soon arrived at Tong Yuan's residence halfway up the mountain.
Under the shade of green pines and cypresses, a large wooden courtyard is built against the mountain . There are gurgling water, chickens and duck coops, and the faint sound of martial arts training.
A balance of movement and stillness.
Dismount and knock on the door.
A boy opened the door and saw Qin Mo with a cold expression: "I've already told you that my master doesn't accept disciples. Please go back." As he said that, he pointed to a new wooden sign outside the gate.
It reads: "No entry for strangers!"
It seems that Tong Yuan is being harassed by the aliens and has no way to deal with it.
"I'm not here to become your disciple." Qin Mo said.
The boy's face tensed and his attitude became worse. "Are you planning to attack Senior Brother Zhao? That's even worse. Please get down the mountain quickly, or I'll let the dogs bite you."
The routine is quite familiar.
Qin Mo smiled and said, "Go and report to your master and tell him that Qin Mo, the governor of Liaodong, is here to pay a visit."
"Jiedushi of Liaodong?" The boy was surprised. Seeing that there were no soldiers around Qin Mo, he looked puzzled. "Could he be a fake?" He had heard from his master that there was a strange man who was appointed as Jiedushi by the court.
I also kept lamenting that the world is becoming more and more corrupt.
Qin Mo handed over the badge. The boy took it and looked at it. His expression changed again. He said in doubt: "Wait a minute. I will report to the master right away."
A Jiedushi is really not easy to deal with.
The boy closed the door, came to the main courtyard, bowed and said, "Sir, there is a strange man outside the door who claims to be the governor of Liaodong. Should we invite him in?"
Tong Yuan was startled and asked subconsciously: "Did that man bring any soldiers with him?"
"No, only one person." said the boy.
"Please let him in." Tong Yuan frowned. Here came another plague god who was difficult to get rid of.
After a while, Qin Mo was invited to the main hall.
"What do you want from me?" Tong Yuan deliberately did not mention Qin Mo's identity as the governor.
"I want the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix spear technique." Qin Mo was also straightforward.
He has already mastered the basic shooting skills and is in urgent need of a book on advanced shooting skills. Hearing that Tong Yuan is a gun master, he naturally makes him the best choice to learn shooting skills from.
So... Qin Mo is here.
"You want to take me as your master?" Tong Yuan said.
He only accepted three disciples in his life, and Zhao Yun was his last disciple. He would never accept any more disciples.
The Jiedushi can't do it either.
Qin Mo shook his head: "I have a master, so I cannot become his disciple." Although he traveled through time, he was still practicing the "Shenxiao True Method", so he was still a disciple of the Shenxiao Sect.
How can I take someone else as my teacher?
Besides, Tong Yuan, a strong man in the Body Tempering Stage, is not qualified to be his master.
"So you want to get the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear Technique for free?" Tong Yuan's face darkened. He had never seen such a domineering person before.
He is not an ordinary person.
Not to mention that both his disciples Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu were from aristocratic families, his wife Yan Yu's Yan family was also an aristocratic family from Guandong, Hebei. Seriously speaking, Tong Yuan was not afraid of a Jiedushi.
Moreover, he was appointed as the governor by bribing the Ten Eunuchs.
Qin Mo was not so overbearing, and said calmly: "You haven't comprehended the true meaning of martial arts yet, do you want to see it? Just treat it as an exchange."
"You, what did you say?" Tong Yuan finally lost his composure and spoke incoherently.
"Walk!"
Qin Mo was not a talkative person. He stood up and walked to the yard. He drew the Black Snake Sword from his waist and calmed his mind. He was ready to show Tong Yuan the true meaning of the sword art that he had comprehended.
The second level of the Star-Breaking Sword Technique can now be performed with difficulty.
"Wait!" Tong Yuan said.
"????"
Tong Yuan said directly to the boy, "Go quickly and call your senior brother."
Qin Mo suddenly realized that Tong Yuan wanted to buy one get one free, so he didn't mind and just considered it as a good relationship.
Soon, Zhao Yun was invited.
Good boy!
He was eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a broad face and a heavy chin, and he looked very majestic.
"master!"
Zhao Yun bowed and Tong Yuan asked him to stand still and watch carefully.
Qin Mo stood still again, his mind and body united, man and sword united as one, a sword intent slowly rose from his body, sharp and bright, eye-catching and dazzling.
The Black Snake Sword was swung gently, but as smooth as flowing clouds and water.
Wherever the sword passed, the air seemed to be cut in two, leaving only a few starlights.
As brilliant as the upside-down Milky Way.
Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun were both stunned. The boy, on the other hand, overestimated his own abilities and became dizzy after a short while. He could not bear the strain and fainted on the ground.
Qin Mo put away his sword.
Tong Yuan seemed to have just woken up from a dream. He said nothing and just sat cross-legged, as if he had realized something.
Zhao Yun was different. He felt so excited that he couldn't express it in words. He found an open space in the distance and began to practice the "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix" spear technique.
Played it over and over again.
Qin Mo did not disturb him and carried the boy into the house to rest.
This wait lasted half a day.
When the sun was at its highest point in the sky, Tong Yuan woke up slowly. Without saying anything, he turned and went into the house. He picked up a handwritten copy of "White Bird Facing the Phoenix Spear Technique" and handed it to Qin Mo.
"I think you will not let this spear skill down." Tong Yuan's attitude changed drastically. He already regarded Qin Mo as a peer and no longer mentioned the idea of accepting him as his disciple.
It's just a joke.
"Thank you!" Qin Mo took it with a fist and put it into the dimensional space.
Zhao Yun had also put away his spear, and ran over and said excitedly: "Master, my Seven-Probe Coiled Snake Spear is done." This was the famous skill he created.
"Very good, you can go down the mountain." Tong Yuan sighed in his heart.
This disciple had no idea what kind of opportunity he had just missed. Instead of trying to comprehend the true meaning of spearmanship, he was thinking about creating his own unique skills.
Really misguided.
"Thank you, Master!" Zhao Yun was still young and excited.
Qin Mo's mind moved, and he asked tentatively: "Since Zilong has already left, are you willing to take up a post in Liaodong?"
"Liaodong?"
However, Zhao Yun didn't know Qin Mo's identity.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, Tong Yuan rushed to say, "Okay." He thought, as long as Zhao Yun stayed with Qin Mo, he would always have the opportunity to comprehend the true meaning of martial arts.
This opportunity cannot be missed again.
Seeing that his master had already agreed on his behalf , Zhao Yun had no objection and bowed to Qin Mo.
Qin Mo laughed.
It was really worth the trip!
