"Zhiruo!" Liu Hu saw Zhiruo running out and started shouting from a distance.
Zhiruo didn't expect to see her uncle today. She was very happy and quickly ran to the carriage.
A male classmate who was close to her saw Zhiruo's appearance and said to her righteously, "Zhiruo, how could you get on a carriage of unknown origin? Didn't the teacher teach us not to talk to strangers?"
"Hmph, you are the stranger, your whole family is a stranger, this is my uncle." Zhiruo raised her nose and spoke.
The little boy was a little surprised that Zhiruo had such a relative. Everyone in the surrounding villages knew that Zhiruo's family was extremely poor. If she had such a rich relative, how could she be bullied?
Not only the little boy didn't believe it, many of the children around him didn't believe it, and some children who didn't have a good relationship with Zhiruo looked at Liu Hu's carriage and said jealously: "This isn't your stepfather, is it?"
"Sure enough, your mother is not a good person."
"Fox spirit!"
Children are always tactless when speaking, not to mention that Lan Xin is pretty. Some women in the neighborhood have long disliked Lan Xin and often say bad things about her.
If these people said something else, Zhiruo might not care.
But now that she was talking about her mother, Zhiruo would not pretend not to hear. She waved her fist, showing her little fangs and said viciously: "If any of you talk nonsense, I will smash your mouth."
Zhiruo was a little bully in normal times, and these kids had all been beaten by her. Now seeing Zhiruo getting angry, they didn't dare to look her in the eyes. One by one they pretended not to see her and ran towards the carriage in shame.
The carriage owner glanced at Liu Hu, nodded, and then hurriedly urged the children to get on the carriage.
The carriage owner was also arranged by Liu Hu. Because he wanted to be alone with Zhiruo, he had to drive away all the troublesome children.
Looking at Zhiruo's majestic appearance, Ah Si said with great satisfaction: "The little girl is really amazing, she has the style of me in my youth. If she is willing, I can teach her martial arts."
"Haha, just you?" Luo Fanchen immediately laughed when he heard Asi's words.
"After learning from you, she will be muscular. Who will dare to marry her then? I think it's better for her to learn from me and learn some inner sect skills."
Ah Si also knew that girls should not learn his martial arts, but because he really liked Zhiruo, he said dissatisfiedly: "I can also teach him other things, at least he can strengthen his body."
After Zhiruo ran over, they both stopped talking and quietly stepped aside. After all, Liu Hu wanted to be alone with Zhiruo and didn't want too many people around them.
"Uncle, it's so early." Zhiruo climbed onto the carriage very skillfully, touched the sword inside the carriage and said, "Uncle, your sword seems to be a top-grade sword."
"Yeah." Liu Hu nodded slightly, not expecting the little kid to know so much about the sword.
He was not against Zhiruo learning martial arts. On the contrary, since he himself could not learn martial arts, he was very willing for his daughter to learn it well.
But when he thought of his own talent, Liu Hu was afraid that his daughter would be like him and would be disappointed, so Liu Hu did not dare to show too much excitement.
Zhiruo naturally didn't know what Liu Hu was thinking. She touched her sword and asked, "Uncle, what level of master are you?"
"Uh." Liu Hu didn't expect his daughter to ask him this question. He was not even at the first level, but it would be embarrassing to say it now, so Liu Hu chose not to speak.
Zhiruo was not willing to give up the topic and continued, "I see that uncle's sword is made of top-grade steel. Only masters above the fifth level can unleash its power."
"Uncle, why don't you teach me martial arts?"
After hearing this, Liu Hu's head became even bigger. He knew a lot about the theory of martial arts, but if he were to actually teach others, wouldn't that be misleading?
Seeing Liu Hu's embarrassment, Luo Fanchen flashed to Zhiruo's side and said gently: "Everyone's martial arts are different. Your uncle's martial arts may not be suitable for you. How about I check you out and see what martial arts are suitable for you to learn?"
"Okay." Zhiruo was a little excited when she heard that Luo Fanchen wanted to check whether she could learn martial arts.
I have always wanted to learn martial arts, but my mother wouldn't let me. Besides, learning martial arts would cost too much money, and our family didn't have enough money, so I kept delaying it.
Normally, some rich people would learn martial arts, but she would just watch secretly from the side, and what she learned was only a superficial understanding, which was of no use at all.
Liu Hu reached out and grabbed Luo Fanchen, squinting his eyes and asked: "You must check carefully and don't make the little bun sad."
Luo Fanchen was very smart, so he naturally heard the hidden meaning of Liu Hu's words, and immediately nodded heavily and said: "I am not Ah Si, I know the limits ."
"He was aiming at me. Why did you just talk? Why did you step on me on purpose?" Ah Si said dissatisfiedly from the side.
After all, they have been friends for many years and have no scruples about joking with each other. Asi will naturally not let Luo Fanchen go easily.
Luo Fanchen glanced at A Si, signaling him not to speak, then held Zhiruo's hand and tried to use his internal strength to sense Zhiruo's talent.
After all, Liu Hu's talent is there, so even if Zhiruo has no talent at all, Luo Fanchen will not doubt it at all.
Because Zhiruo was still young, Luo Fanchen didn't dare to check her in an ordinary way. If he hurt Zhiruo's meridians with his internal force, Liu Hu would definitely not forgive him.
Besides, Luo Fanchen himself likes Zhiruo very much, so how could he bear to hurt her?
Therefore, Luo Fanchen carefully examined Zhiruo's eight extraordinary meridians, hoping to find some advantages of Zhiruo.
However, when Luo Fanchen examined Zhiruo's body, he unexpectedly discovered that Zhiruo was actually extremely talented. Not only was her talent in inner sect amazing, she could also practice outer sect.
After knowing the result, Luo Fanchen looked at Liu Hu deeply, as if to say: "Boss, are you sure this little girl is your daughter?"
Liu Hu had no idea what Luo Fanchen was looking at. He just thought that Zhiruo's talent was very poor. He didn't dare to show it too obviously. He ran to Zhiruo's side, picked her up and said.
"Martial arts are not suitable for girls to practice. If you are willing, uncle can teach you something else."
Zhiruo seemed not to have heard Liu Hu's words. Although she was picked up by Liu Hu, her eyes were always fixed on Luo Fanchen, wanting to hear Luo Fanchen's result.
At this time, no matter how dumb Ah Si was, he could see that the opportunity might not be good, and he laughed aside and said, "Boss is right, it's a bit of a waste for girls to learn martial arts. I have some moves to strengthen the body. If you like, I can teach you."
"Yes, your uncle is quite strong in the outer sects. Why don't you learn from him?" He didn't expect Zhiruo to be so stubborn. Looking at Zhiruo's little eyes, Liu Hu was a little scared.
I didn't expect Zhiruo to be so similar to me. Her eyes were exactly like his own. For a moment, Liu Hu didn't know what to do.
When Luo Fanchen told Liu Hu that he could not practice martial arts, it took him a long time to get over it. Now that his daughter looks so much like him, Liu Hu doesn't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing.
Just as Luo Fanchen was about to speak, Liu Hu held Luo Fanchen's hand and said, "Have you thought about what to say?"
"Boss, you're overthinking it." Luo Fanchen looked at Liu Hu's nervous expression, shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If possible, Luo Fanchen hopes that Liu Hu will reflect on whether Zhiruo is his daughter, instead of worrying about whether Zhiruo can learn martial arts.
Liu Hu thought Luo Fanchen had some other methods, and he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's right, even if Zhiruo can't learn martial arts, I have a lot of elixirs."
He remembered the secret book Tang Ya had given him before, and what Luo Fanchen had said about marrow cleansing and body replacement. Zhiruo was still so young, and if she really wanted to learn martial arts, Liu Hu wouldn't mind letting Zhiruo cleanse her marrow and body replacement.
“Little Baozi, you are very suitable for practicing martial arts. You can practice both the outer and inner sects. But you are still young now. If you want to practice, you can find a better teacher.” Luo Fanchen said realistically.
Neither himself nor Asi is a qualified teacher. The poison techniques that he practices can only be learned by people from the Luo family. As for Asi's skills, they can basically be ignored.
Therefore, if Zhiruo wants to learn martial arts, she needs to seek help from someone else.
When Liu Hu heard Luo Fanchen's words, he kept winking at Luo Fanchen, confirming over and over again whether Luo Fanchen said that to make Zhiruo happy, or whether it was really like Luo Fanchen said, that Zhiruo was very suitable for practicing martial arts.
Luo Fanchen saw Liu Hu's concern and nodded heavily at him.
When Zhiruo heard Luo Fanchen's words, she was not as happy as she had imagined. Instead, she said "Oh" and then sat aside obediently.
She knew better than anyone that her family could not afford the high cost of martial arts training. Besides, hiring a martial arts teacher was simply beyond the imagination of an ordinary family.
Liu Hu didn't understand why Zhiruo was unhappy, and he didn't dwell on this issue. If Zhiruo really wanted to learn martial arts, then she must choose this teacher carefully. Ability was secondary. The key was that the person had to be upright. Only in this way would the students taught by her be chivalrous and courageous.
"You don't have to go to your master's place today. I have already asked for leave for you." Liu Hu touched Zhiruo's little head and said casually.
"Wow! Let's go fishing. I'm very good at fishing." Zhiruo was so happy to hear that she didn't have to go to the master that she almost jumped out of the carriage.
Liu Hu pushed Zhiruo onto the carriage and warned her, "No, you have to study hard here today. You are so much worse than the other kids."
"Oh." Zhiruo was helpless. She thought she could play without restraint, but she didn't expect that she still had to learn. Looking at Liu Hu's appearance, Zhiruo smiled evilly and said, "Uncle, do you know how to do it? Teach me."
"Hmph, you'll know in a moment." Liu Hu snorted coldly, took out a book, and began to teach Zhiruo word by word.
