Water Margin farming to become powerful

Chapter 44
Sun Li gasped and said, "Wait a minute, brother, I just learned that there is someone who wants you to meet."

"Who?"

"I just heard that Master is back."

Zhou Tong is now nearly sixty years old, and he has been teaching martial arts to people in various places for most of his life, and he has also been in the shogunate of many big men as a teacher in a boxing gym.

When Sun Li went to Dengzhou to teach boxing, Laba learned from Zhou Tong for three months. He also saw that he should use a powerful short weapon because of his long hands and feet, so he passed on a set of double whips to him.

As for Sun Xin, at Sun Li's begging, Zhou Tong accepted him as an apprentice and guided him for more than a month. Although the time was short, he learned quite profoundly. It took more than a month to become enlightened.

It is different from other apprentices, because Sun Xin and Sun Li were discovered at the end of Zhou Tong's martial arts at that time. At that time, the two people's families were poor and naturally they couldn't afford any training, but Zhou Tong magnanimously accepted them. As apprentices, although they only studied for a few months, they did pass on the skills of the two of them to live and live. In the end, when Zhou Tong left Dengzhou, he specifically asked them not to send Shu Xiu.

This means that Sun Xin and Sun Li are the real disciples of Zhou Tong. According to the rules of the Jianghu, it is needless to say that if Zhou Tong becomes successful in the future. When they came to their home, they wanted to treat Zhou Tong as his own father to the end of his life.

When Zhou Tong came to Dengzhou, it was no different from the two parents who came to Dengzhou. Hearing that the master had returned to Dengzhou, Sun Xin had to prepare gifts and come to see him immediately.

Sun Xin, Hu Sanniang and Xie Zhenjie Bao hurried back on horseback, because it was too late to disturb Master's rest, so they first stayed at Sun Li's house for a day, and the next morning the two brothers went outside to buy a lot of gifts, and then Only then walked to the inn together through the wind and snow with the gifts.

The inn was full of people. Zhou Tong had been teaching apprentices in Dengzhou for two years, and there were at least dozens of disciples and grandchildren. After all, even the underdeveloped registered disciples like Sun Xin were nearly 20 years old. In addition, the children brought by these apprentices and grandchildren Family members, this time when Zhou Tong came to Dengzhou to visit him, the entire inn was already packed.

Before Sun Xinlai, he also carefully understood Zhou Tong's life. His master Zhou Tong was a bit like a collection of historical facts and novels, not as legendary as in romances.Although Zhou Tong in this time and space is known as a hero, he usually does chivalrous things, but firstly, it hinders the vision of people at this time, and secondly, he is just a reckless man who has only learned martial arts and has not read many books. And it is impossible for the great chivalrous man to serve the country and the people as in the legends of later generations.

Although Zhou Tong's reputation is true, he still needs to rely on apprentices to pass on his skills to support himself.

When the two squeezed into the room, they saw that Zhou Tong was surrounded by several people who looked like rich men, looking at a child's bones.

Although the old man is old, he is still in good spirits. Because of his travels, his body and bones are much stronger than those of the old Hu Taigong and Zhu Chaofeng, who are also warriors. His shoulders are broad and his back is as wide as an ordinary 40-year-old. The level of a man.

Zhou Tong touched the child's arm and touched his shoulder blade, then nodded in satisfaction and told the rich man who sent the child some good things about the child, his words were full of praise.The rich man smiled all over his face, thinking that he wanted to send the child to Zhou Tong's school to learn some boxing.

The two brothers took the gift to the serving junior brother, and stood obediently by the side of the room waiting.

A white-faced man as tall as a white jade tower saw them and stood in the distance to greet them.

Sun Li hurried over, the white-faced man smiled and said, "You two brothers are here too."

Sun Xin vaguely remembered this person's name from his memory, Tie Bang Luan Tingyu, a rather masculine nickname.

Another Water Margin character.

According to the records of the Water Margin, in a few years he will go to Zhujiazhuang to be a gun and stick instructor, and then he will show his prowess in the three strikes at Zhujiazhuang in Liangshan. One of the most powerful fighters on Liangshan, Qin Ming fought for more than [-] consecutive rounds, and finally used ambushes to capture Qin Ming alive.

If it hadn't been for Sun Xin and Sun Li's Dengzhou Legion to enter Zhujiazhuang under the cover of their seniors and open the gate for Liangshan, Zhujiazhuang led by Tie Bang Luan Tingyu might not necessarily lose to Liangshan.

Sun Li stepped forward and said with a smile, "Master is in a good mood today."

Hearing this, Luan Tingyu said with a smile: "This time, there is a big villa owner in Dengzhou who invited Master to go to the village to form a group of Baojia regiments, and he also recruited many teachers. Now that he just entered Dengzhou City, several wealthy households came to see him off. My own children learn spears and cudgels, and get a lot of new students, how could Master be unhappy?"

Both Sun Li and Sun Xinyan nodded, and upon questioning, Luan Tingyu had followed Zhou Tong all over the world for the past few years, and he was considered Zhou Dong's closest disciple.

Sun Xin wondered why Luan Tingyu was so capable later on. It seems that the chores in the past few years have not been a loss.

Being able to run errands for Zhou Tong's subordinates is not an honor for everyone. For example, Zhou Tong did not intend to bring Sun Xin and Sun Li with him when he left Dengzhou. Obviously, their martial arts understanding is better than that of Luan Tingyu. Still worse.

Zhou Tong sent away a few officials and rich people who came to invite his master, and then returned to the house.

The master was really in a good mood. Looking at the disciples who had arrived, he put his hands on his hips and said with a smile: "There is no outsider in this room, so I will tell everyone a good thing."

Everyone fell silent and looked at the master standing in front.

"I have taught more than a dozen apprentices in Dengzhou, who were registered, entered, and taught personally. Although everyone has different levels of martial arts, they have all been taught to some extent. It is rare to say that three or five people can't get close. , Today I accepted the letter of appointment from Wangjiazhuang outside the city, saying that Wangjiazhuang outside the city wants to build a Baojia."

"Wangjiazhuang Baozheng came to the door again and again, and his words were sincere. In addition, during this period of time, I was thinking about the theory of boxing and thought of a place where I was about to be enlightened, but it was always as unpredictable as a layer of paper. I just wanted to settle down and think carefully. Such a place is also convenient, and I finally settled down in the past two days."

"I went to Wangjiazhuang to see it. The village occupies a large area with complex terrain and requires a lot of people. Wang Baozheng and I have already negotiated the terms of the Wangjiazhuang, and we have to take five disciples to go. , every student is a teacher, and they are paid 15 taels a year at the village, including food and lodging, and they also give away two sets of new clothes and three strings of noodles every year during the New Year’s Eve!"

Upon hearing Zhou Tong's words, many apprentices in the room started talking.

Fifteen taels a year is not much for an official like Sun Li, but it is quite a lot for an ordinary person, enough to buy ten acres of land, not to mention being able to be by Master's side day and night for the next year, My own martial arts will definitely improve a lot.

Many of these martial arts disciples are just better than others, and many of them are just idlers in Dengzhou City. If they have the opportunity to earn so much money, they will naturally be excited.

Later generations like this feeling of being respected by all the children in the house, and Zhou Tong is also happy to see everyone's reaction.

His eyes scanned the bottom for a while, and soon fell on the little apprentice Sun Xin who had entered the room.
