Volume 1: Wild Beasts, Changes Begin Chapter 50 Normal and Abnormal
The rooster crows and the world becomes bright.
Throughout the ages, there are countless poems that chant about the rising sun, simply because that moment of sunrise has a charm that makes people suddenly enlightened and feel relaxed and happy.
At sunrise today, Fang Yunhan had already ridden a horse and led a team out of Changluohou Mansion and headed towards Honganji Temple.
There were quite a few people in the team, including more than a dozen guards, several maids, and a carriage loaded with daily necessities such as heaters, brocades, and incense.
When these people arrive at Honganji, they will book guest rooms and change into a set of daily necessities. Then most of them will follow Fang Pingbo back to Changluohou Mansion.
Only Ziyun will stay at Honganji to accompany Fang Yunhan.
If he was only accompanied by one person, Fang Yunhan thought he could still take care of himself even if more mutant creatures attacked.
Besides, this time, Fang Yunhan was also planning to teach Ziyun some martial arts.
He has not been idle these days. He has been secretly using actions such as holding hands and patting shoulders, and using a little internal force to feel the pulses of some trustworthy people in Changluo Hou Mansion.
In the end, it was discovered that among these people, Ziyun's meridians were in the best condition, which means that he had the best aptitude for practicing internal skills.
There are several reasons for this. First, Ziyun is young and has not even gone through puberty, which is the stage when the human body's qi and blood are most active, and it is also the period when a person learns the fastest in his life.
Secondly, Ziyun has been with Fang Yunhan since he was a child, and his food, clothing and daily necessities are all of the best quality, and he is well taken care of.
Thirdly, Ziyun had never experienced any strenuous exercise before, and even if he had had minor illnesses, he had no serious illness or injury. Unlike Chang Luo Hou, Steward Ma, and the guards in the mansion, they all had some hidden injuries in their bodies.
Also, the bit of ferocity that Ziyun had vaguely revealed after encountering Gu Yunfei was truly her true nature, which made Fang Yunhan feel that when he was not around, this little girl would become a kind of military guarantee for the Changluo Marquis Mansion, and she might be happy about it.
Fang Yunhan sideways glanced at Ziyun. The little girl was just learning to ride a horse. She held the reins with both hands, her legs tightly clamped around the horse's belly, her back hunched, and it looked like she wanted to lie on the horse and hug the horse's neck, like a little squirrel that was easily frightened.
"Ha." Fang Yunhan felt a little better and began to silently plan his future steps in his life.
——When we get to Honganji, I will teach Ziyun how to practice martial arts first. When she gets the hang of it, I can find an opportunity to spar with that Yue Haiwang, and then...
This plan was disrupted when their team was able to see the main gate of Honganji Temple.
Because today, in addition to the two monks guarding the gate, there was also a large chair in front of the Honganji Temple. Yue Tianen, whose hair and beard were so thick that they merged into one, sat quietly on the chair.
The old man's clothes were particularly loose, making him look thin, but he had a tall frame, and his eyes seemed half-closed and listless, but he still had the momentum of a mighty warrior.
Fang Pingbo was slightly stunned when he saw this scene, and said with a smile: "Mr. Yue, why did you go out so early in the morning and sit here? Is there any distinguished guest coming?"
"I'm waiting for you."
Yue Tianen opened his eyes. From his angle, he could take in the entire team with his eyes, but Fang Pingbo suddenly felt that the old man was only looking at his son, and felt a little puzzled.
Yue Tianen said, "Marquis Changluo, Lingmiao is waiting for you in the pavilion over there. He said he wants to have a fierce battle with you on the chessboard. Go ahead."
Fang Pingbo looked ahead and saw a pine forest about ten steps away from the main gate of Honganji Temple. Turning left, there was a stone pavilion in the forest. It was originally a place where people in the temple saw off distinguished guests. But at this moment, there were no guests there, only Master Lingmiao and two little monks, who really looked like they were waiting for someone.
"This..." Fang Pingbo felt that the atmosphere was a little strange and opened his mouth to say something.
Fang Yunhan suddenly smiled and said, "Father, the guest should follow the host's wishes. How can we keep Master Lingmiao waiting for so long? You should take these people over there first."
After hearing what he said, Fang Pingbo led his men in that direction, but he turned back after only a few steps, and the worry on his face became more and more obvious.
The gate of Honganji Temple is nearly five meters high and more than three meters wide, so it is not difficult for four people to walk in side by side.
But after Yue Tianen opened his eyes, although he was sitting alone in front of the door, it was as if he had blocked the entire door, and it even made people inexplicably think that he was about to break through the frame of the door.
Fang Yunhan remained calm and said, "I thought I would visit Mr. Yue in a few days, but I didn't expect to see him here."
"I didn't expect that you were Fang Pingbo's son." Yue Tianen said, "I heard that his son was seriously ill and he accidentally swallowed a pearl from overseas not long ago and recovered. But I didn't expect that you have such skills."
Yue Tianen stretched out a hand, palm up, five fingers naturally open, and said: "Come on."
Fang Yunhan was startled: "What?"
Yue Tianen said as a matter of course: "Come and fight."
Fang Yunhan thought for a moment, then laughed again and said slowly: "So, Mr. Yue discovered me yesterday."
"Hahaha, staring at me like that and thinking I won't notice you, how arrogant do you have to be."
Yue Tianen laughed three times, then suddenly stopped smiling and said solemnly, "You are indeed someone who dares to challenge me."
What challenges?
Have the old man and the young ever met or talked before today?
No.
But for some people, communication does not require language.
When Fang Yunhan rushed to Honganji from Changluohou Mansion yesterday, he saw Yue Tianen killing the tiger. He was so happy to see the prey and his blood was boiling that he stayed for a moment longer and looked at Yue Tianen for a moment longer.
After Yue Tianen killed the tiger yesterday, he suddenly felt a gaze, like a blade just pulled out of the stove, sweeping over him. So, following this feeling, he turned his gaze and saw a figure from behind.
In Yue Tianen's opinion, these two one-sided gazes were enough for them to complete a silent communication.
"I want to fight" "Then come on"
So Yue Tianen moved a chair and sat here early this morning, waiting for the challenger to arrive.
At that time, he didn't know the other person's age, appearance, name, or background, but he didn't care about these things.
He only sees whether that person dares to come today and whether he will come.
Since you're here now, why not fight now? When will you fight?
Fang Yunhan also understood it completely. He whipped his horse whip and said, "Right here?"
"No, where you stood yesterday."
Yue Tianen stood up, and the two monks guarding the gate saw a shadow rising in front of them, and then...
Just disappeared!
The old man sitting in front of the door and the young man on the horse in front of the door disappeared from their sight almost at the same time.
It seemed that only two winds were left, and the tails of the winds touched each other in the air, causing the fallen leaves on the ground to scatter.
Chang Luohou, who was sitting in the pavilion, stared at the scene in amazement, totally unable to understand.
Of these two people, one is his friend, a master with an excellent reputation, and the other is his son, who is usually polite.
They are clearly elders and juniors, and should have a friendly meeting. Why did they start fighting when they first met?
This is not a question of whether it is impolite or not. This is something that is completely unpredictable after a normal person's thinking and speculation about their personalities .
"Is this reasonable?"
Chang Luohou stood up and wanted to leave. He chased after him to see what was going on, but Master Lingmiao stopped him.
The old monk looked relaxed: "My Lord, birds of a feather flock together. People like them cannot be judged by their usual perspective and thinking. Maybe they can understand each other when they do things, but we cannot understand them. What can you do if you follow them?"
"Well, even if both of them are good at martial arts and have a friendship, they should at least sit down and have a chat first, talk about what they want to compete in and when to stop." Fang Pingbo frowned.
"So, Lord Marquis cannot understand them." Master Lingmiao placed the first piece on the chessboard and said with a smile, "In this case, why not choose to believe them?"
"I believe that this fight between them will also have a good result."
