Chapter 218 Tianlong 8 Part 32
How could Ah Zhu not know that this man was the protagonist of the Zhenlong Chess Game, and one of the three main characters in the drama Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, the second brother of Qiao Feng and the second elder brother of Duan Yu.
If Duan Yu and Qiao Feng are considered geniuses among geniuses, then Xu Zhu can definitely be considered the child of destiny among them.
The other two learned martial arts through various means. Xu Zhu was directly infused with Wuyazi's internal energy, which made him the head of the Xiaoyao Sect. Later, he inherited the internal energy of Tianshan Tonglao and Li Qiushui, and learned many martial arts secrets of the Xiaoyao Sect.
It can be said that the first half of his life was ordinary, but the second half was like a soaring success!
Xu Zhu was not asleep, so he was lying on the ground observing the place when Ah Zhu came over.
Just then Ah Zhu came over, and the two looked at each other. Xu Zhu quickly stood up and saluted with his hands clasped together.
"Hello, benefactor. May I ask where this place is?"
Ah Zhu looked at the silly little monk in front of her, who looked so plain and simple. No wonder Wuyazi in the play looked down on him at first.
After all, given Wuyazi's obsession with looks, Xu Zhu really has no advantages.
Ah Zhu's eyebrows curved, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"I guess you are the one who solved this chess game? Come with me."
Xu Zhu didn't know who this fairy-like woman in front of him was. When he saw Ah Zhu's smile, his face instantly flushed.
Xu Zhu immediately lowered his head, not daring to look Ah Zhu in the eye. Ah Zhu didn't care and she brought Xu Zhu to Wuyazi.
"Master, this young master is the one who cracked the Zhenlong chess game this time."
After saying this, Ah Zhu stepped aside. Wuyazi was already very satisfied after seeing Ah Zhu. This chess game took him so much time to set up, and he knew very well that ordinary people could not crack it at all.
Not only that, Wuyazi didn't believe that his luck could be so good. First there was Azhu, and then there was a genius.
Therefore, after Azhu became his disciple, Wuyazi no longer had much hope for today's Zhenlong chess game, so he never mentioned the chess game outside and instead introduced the affairs of the Xiaoyao Sect to Azhu.
I also hope that Ah Zhu can understand more about the sect, so that she can avoid a lot of trouble when she takes charge of the sect in the future.
Who would have thought that someone would come in at this time? Wuyazi was still happy about his good luck in his heart.
But after seeing the people Ah Zhu brought, the disappointment was beyond words.
Looking at Xu Zhu's silly look, Wuyazi felt something was wrong. How could such a person crack his Zhenlong chess game?
Coupled with Xu Zhu's ordinary face, he even blinked his eyes, as if the person in front of him could have a handsome face.
"So he's a little monk, oh! He's an ugly monk at that. I knew God wouldn't be so kind to me. Just one step he got a talented and handsome disciple, and the next step he got a genius."
When Ah Zhu heard this, she felt that Wuyazi's words were a bit impolite. Even if he didn't like her, he didn't have to say she was ugly so directly, right?
She quickly looked at Xu Zhu, and was relieved to see that he was not angry.
Xu Zhu stepped forward and clasped his hands together in greeting, "This humble monk Xu Zhu greets you, senior."
Wuyazi felt a little embarrassed when he saw that Xu Zhu was sincere and was not angry because of his previous words, but considering his obsession with looks, Xu Zhu really did not meet his standards.
Wuyazi lowered his head helplessly for a while, and then he thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.
"You can crack my chess game, which proves that your intelligence must be extraordinary. Let's put it this way, little master.
I'll give you a gift, and you take it and leave here, what do you think?"
Xu Zhu was very clear about his situation. If no one helped him, he would definitely not be able to get in, let alone accept this gift.
Xu Zhu waved his hands repeatedly, "To answer your question, Senior, I am unworthy of this gift. I am not good at chess, and I did not solve the chess game myself. How can I dare to accept your gift?"
Wuyazi raised his white eyebrows slightly, adding a bit of seriousness to his face.
"Oh? Tell me in detail."
Xu Zhu stood in front of Wuyazi and respectfully explained why he intervened in the chess game, how he started playing chess again at Su Xinghe's request, and even how someone was directing him from behind. Xu Zhu explained everything honestly.
He couldn't say it outside just now, but now that he was in front of his master, Xu Zhu felt that he didn't have the nerve to take credit for other people's achievements.
As for the final result, he is willing to bear it.
"That's the way it is. I know I don't meet your requirements, so I don't dare to ask for anything. But if you need my help, I will do my best."
Wuyazi and Azhu, one has lived to such an old age, and the other has experienced several lifetimes. Although they cannot be said to be old foxes, they can be said to have experienced a lot of worldly things.
They could naturally tell whether Xu Zhu's words were true or false, and Wuyazi's impression of Xu Zhu improved because of this.
He pretended to be angry and said, "Humph! You are honest."
"I dare not deceive you, senior."
Wuyazi thought for a moment and said, "Your original intention was to save people. It's not bad that you have such a chivalrous heart at such a young age. But..."
Wuyazi's face flashed with a trace of entanglement. "It's just that whether it's chess or martial arts, it doesn't matter if you don't learn them well. It's just that your appearance really doesn't meet my standards!"
Wuyazi's sigh made Xu Zhu at a loss for what to do for a moment. Xu Zhu touched his head, thinking that since he had already made everything clear, it was not appropriate for him to stay here any longer.
"Senior, I will take my leave now."
"Wait!"
When Ah Zhu saw Wuyazi calling Xu Zhu to stop, she thought about the situation in the drama and believed that Wuyazi would still accept Xu Zhu as his disciple. However, she didn't expect that Wuyazi was actually asking Xu Zhu about the situation outside.
"Young Master, who are the people who are here to solve the chess game today?"
Xu Zhu thought for a moment and replied, "There is my great-uncle Xuan Nan, Master Duan from Dali, Master Murong from Gusu, and the four evil men from Xixia Yipintang. Oh, and there is also a Master Jiumozhi."
Wuyazi stroked his beard and looked outside through the light.
"All the masters in the martial arts world will be here soon!"
Xu Zhu nodded. It was also the first time for him to meet so many world-famous masters.
Thanks to today's chess game, he was able to barely match those names.
"I heard that in recent years, many heroes have emerged in the martial arts world, especially a man named Qiao Feng. It is said that this man is very outstanding. Has he come?"
"No."
Wuyazi looked somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, and looked at Azhu beside him, thinking that he should not be too greedy. It was good enough to have one disciple, so how could he have two such good disciples at once?
Wuyazi took out a small jade bottle from his body and flicked his finger, and the jade bottle was in Xuzhu's hand.
"Young Master, there is a Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill in here. No matter how badly you are injured, it can save your life. This pill is for you."
"Senior, this is unacceptable. I cannot accept a reward without merit. How can I take such a valuable thing from you?"
Xu Zhu strode over with the small jade bottle and wanted to return it to Wuyazi, but Ah Zhu stopped him.
"Little Master, take it. This is your reward for cracking the Zhenlong chess game. Master will never take back anything he gives away.
If you don't want it, even if you return it, my master will throw it away, so just keep it."
"Lost? Such a valuable thing, it's a waste."
Xu Zhu muttered to himself, but finally accepted the Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill.
Seeing Xu Zhu leaving, Wuyazi said jokingly, "How come I didn't know that I was so rich that I could throw away such a precious elixir."
"I know!"
Ah Zhu had no embarrassment at all about being Wuyazi's master, after all, Wuyazi was the one who offended her first.
Thinking of Wuyazi asking Qiao Feng about what happened just now, Ah Zhu rolled her eyes at Wuyazi in annoyance.
"It seems that the master is not satisfied with my new apprentice! Otherwise, why would he chase after the young master and ask questions to the heroes who came to participate in the Zhenlong chess game?
I guess Master is thinking about the leader Qiao Feng all the time."
Wuyazi smiled awkwardly, "My dear disciple, don't be angry. I never thought that I would have a disciple as smart, clever and beautiful as you."
"So after you accepted me as your apprentice, you were still asking?"
Wuyazi looked a little embarrassed, "Don't I have to take a look at some young talents in the martial arts world before accepting a disciple?"
Ah Zhu wanted to laugh at Wuyazi's words, "So you're still picking one secretly by yourself?"
Upon hearing this, Wuyazi did not refute but agreed with Azhu's words. After all, taking in disciples is a lifelong thing, and he still needs to have a simple understanding of some people in the martial arts world.
Looking at Wuyazi's expression, Ah Zhu told him everything she knew about Qiao Feng.
"As for Qiao Feng, you should stop thinking about him. He is indeed tall and mighty, with extraordinary aura, and is highly skilled in martial arts. Not only that, he is also generous, mature and steady. He can be regarded as a person who combines both character and martial arts in the martial arts world today.
But, Master, if you think about it, you will know that people like this have been trained since childhood. How can it be your turn to take advantage of them?
If he really becomes your apprentice, you don't even need to teach him martial arts. He can kill Ding Chunqiu right now and bring him to you.
So, don't expect too much. You'd be very lucky to have me as your disciple."
Wuyazi saw that Ah Zhu's words were getting more and more outrageous, and she even came to burn incense, so he knew that Ah Zhu was angry.
He quickly waved his hand and asked Ah Zhu to come closer, "My dear disciple, come quickly, how can other people's disciples compare with my disciple Wuyazi?
Our Xiaoyao Sect has countless martial arts books. With your intelligence and talent, after a few years of study, you will definitely be as good as Qiao Feng."
"That is."
Ah Zhu accepted all of Wuyazi's praise, thinking about the spiritual spring water and the transformation of her bones over the years.
If this is the case, and she is still not as good as the protagonist in the story, then she has lived in vain in all these lives?
"Master, don't worry. After I've learned for a few years, I will definitely bring Ding Chunqiu's head to you so you can take a good look at it."
When talking about Ding Chunqiu, Wuyazi's excited expression gradually calmed down.
Wuyazi thought about his own body. Although he had accepted a new disciple, he could not teach her personally, which undoubtedly made Wuyazi feel a little regretful.
However, he had already made up his mind not to continue living a miserable life, so Wuyazi looked at Azhu.
"Girl, with my current body, it is impossible for me to avenge myself. You are the only one who can help me do this.
But don't worry, your master won't let you go like this. I plan to pass on all my seventy years of skills to you.
This way, whether you are dealing with Ding Chunqiu or other enemies in the future, you won't be at a disadvantage due to your internal strength."
Ah Zhu thought that this matter had finally happened. She knew that Wuyazi passed his inner strength to Xu Zhu, but that was because Xu Zhu's martial arts skills were shallow and he was a simple and kind person.
But I am different. I have martial arts skills. I have the Three-Finger for long-range attacks. Although I don’t have any particularly famous close combat moves, I also have the Xiao Wuxiang Gong, plus the number one escape skill, Lingbo Weibu.
Finally, there are various poisons that are difficult to detect. It is not easy for ordinary people to kill her.
Therefore, Azhu was not prepared to accept Wuyazi's internal energy initiation, as it would not have any benefit other than accelerating Wuyazi's death.
And with what he had seen in the martial arts world these days, Ah Zhu also had a new goal.
She knew that she would not stay in the Xiaoyao Sect for the rest of her life, so there would not be much conflict between her and her master Wuyazi.
On the contrary, Wuyazi is often needed to help him with some work behind the scenes.
So Azhu directly rejected Wuyazi.
"Master, I am not taking you as my disciple just to think about your inner strength. If you are willing, please give me a few years. Then I will personally bring Ding Chunqiu to you to apologize.
Instead of just accepting me into the sect and then leaving, I know that you, Master, are not clear about my strength.
But it doesn't matter, I can call my senior brother in, and I will spar with him, so that you can see my strength and understand that I am not just bragging. "
Wuyazi was not too surprised by Azhu's words. After all, people who could sneak in under the watchful eyes of the public were usually quite powerful.
But he didn't object. Since Ah Zhu didn't want to, he would take advantage of the fact that his old bones were still useful to teach Ah Zhu well. This was also his duty as a master.
"Well then, let me see your strength."
When Ah Zhu went out, the party outside had already dispersed. Xu Zhu did not hide the fact from his uncle-master and told Xuan Nan that he had obtained a Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill.
Those in the front row were all masters of the martial arts world. Even though Xu Zhu's voice was very low, with their internal strength, they could hear him effortlessly.
The Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill, a medicine that only exists in legends, is very important to those who practice martial arts.
After all, there are so many fighting and killings in the world, and no one can be sure when they will be injured or die.
If that time really comes, having a Nine-Turn Resurrection Pill would definitely be more effective than anything else.
