Chapter 562 News from fellow villagers
"……also?"
Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and looked with interest at the young man wearing martial arts uniforms and holding two plastic bags.
"You mean, besides us, there are other people who come to be apprentices?"
"Ah, but that was already two months ago."
The young man first answered Lin Zhongtian's question calmly, and then said with emotion: "Within two months, three people actually came to apprentice. Since that incident, such a grand occasion has been really rare..."
"grand occasion……"
Lin Zhongtian and Li Yun looked at each other with strange expressions.
Only three people came to be apprentices in two months. Can this be considered a grand occasion?
After sighing with emotion, the young man turned to look at Li Yun and Lin Zhongtian, and sighed: "As the senior brother of the Taoist gym, I advise you to give up your apprenticeship as soon as possible. Master will not accept you as his disciple."
After saying that, the young man stepped forward and walked towards the gate of the gym carrying two plastic bags of supplies.
"Wait!" Lin Zhongtian immediately called him, and after he turned around in confusion, he chuckled and said, "You misunderstood, we are not here to be a disciple, but to find someone."
"……Find someone?"
The young man frowned: "There are only two people in the whole gym, me and master. Who are you looking for - oh, I know, you must be from the Hero Association, so please come in quickly!"
Lin Zhongtian smiled and shook his head: "No need, what we are looking for is not you and Mr. Bangu, but the person you mentioned who came here to study as a teacher two months ago."
"You mean 'glasses'?"
The young man frowned and asked in surprise: "What are you looking for him for?"
Hearing the other party's words, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
'Glasses'……
What is this name?
Could it be a nickname for a hero?
Is this guy still a hero?
Lin Zhongtian and Li Yun looked at each other, and then said with a smile: "It's nothing, that guy is our fellow villager. When we came here, we originally wanted to join him, but we didn't expect that the address he told us before was no longer occupied. Well, we asked around about his whereabouts, and then we heard that he had come to the gym..."
"So that's it."
The young man suddenly realized, then shook his head and said: "Then you have asked the wrong person. I don't know where he lives now."
Lin Zhongtian said thoughtfully: "What do you mean, he didn't succeed in becoming a disciple?"
The young man shook his head and said: "Of course not. Although his attitude was very sincere, the teacher still rejected him."
Lin Zhongtian continued to ask: "Then, where did he go?"
The young man looked hesitant, his eyes passing suspiciously across their faces, as if he was still on guard against the two of them.
"Let me answer this question..."
A slightly older voice came calmly.
Lin Zhongtian had a smile on his face and turned to look at the gym behind the young man.
I saw a healthy old man with white hair and beard walking out of the gym, with his strong hands behind his back, looking at Li Yun and Lin Zhongtian at the door of the gym with bright eyes.
"Teacher, why are you out here!"
The young man quickly came over.
Bang Gu glanced at him and chuckled: "Cha Lanzi, you go in first."
Charanzi was stunned for a moment, looked at the two of them warily, and then turned around and walked towards the gym.
When Cha Lanzi's back disappeared at the door of the gym, Bang Gu said with a smile: "The two of you just eliminated the ghost-level weirdos in D City and rushed to Humble House without stopping. It seems that this young man is really important to you." It’s very important!”
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "Mr. Banggu is well-informed!"
Bang Gu smiled and nodded: "I can't help it. The people in the Hero Association attach great importance to you two. As the third S-class hero, I will naturally be notified of wooing you two..."
At this point, Bang Gu paused, and then said with a slightly bewitching tone: "I have already seen the strength of the two of you. If it is you, it is not impossible for me to make an exception and accept you as my disciple "
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in front of the gym suddenly became silent.
Li Yun looked at Banggu with an extremely strange expression, his eyes constantly wandering between Banggu and Lin Zhongtian.
If this old guy just wanted to accept him as his disciple, that would be fine, but he actually wanted to accept Boss Lin as his disciple!
This is really...
Li Yun was complaining crazily in his heart, but he was too embarrassed to actually say it.
Bang Gu was also embarrassed. He finally put down his old face and took the initiative to extend an olive branch to the two 'young people' in his eyes. Unexpectedly, he didn't get any response.
Facing Lin Zhongtian's surprised gaze, Bang Gu clenched his fist, put it to his mouth, coughed twice, and then said with a smile: "Haha, it's just a joke. Let's get back to the subject. I know the young man you are looking for. where."
"But before I tell you, I need to confirm that you have no ill intentions towards him."
As he spoke, Bang Gu's eyes became sharp, as if he had transformed from a retired old man into a prestigious silver fang in an instant.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "Of course not. If there were, how could we stand here and talk to Mr. Banggu and your eldest disciple in a friendly manner?"
Lin Zhongtian said it very politely, but the profound meaning contained in his words made Bang Gu feel a chill in his heart.
"... Such a nice and friendly person!"
Bang Gu suddenly burst out laughing, then straightened his expression and said, "Okay, I believe you!"
"The matter starts from a year ago. At that time, my gym was still full of people and disciples..."
Bang Gu rambled on about the past for the two of them.
It was roughly how brilliant his gymnasium was before and how outstanding his disciples were. Until one day a year ago, his chief disciple Hungryang suddenly took advantage of Banggu's outing and violently injured people. Not only did he defeat Banggu's gymnasium's All the disciples were beaten to a bloody head, their livers and gallbladders were split, and they even had unspeakable fear and psychological shadow of hungry wolves.
Although Bangu finally defeated Hungry Wolf easily and drove him out of the gym, the things Hungry Wolf did had already planted deep fear and shadow in the hearts of the gym disciples.
Since then, the disciples of Banggu Gymnasium have left one after another. Only Cha Lanzi, who escaped because of skipping classes at that time, became the only remaining disciple of Banggu Gymnasium...
The above are all plots in the original work, and Lin Zhongtian and Li Yun naturally know them very well.
However, in order to know the whereabouts of the fellow, they still listened with a grim face.
Finally, after a long period of preparation, the story in Banggu's mouth developed to two months ago.
"Two months ago, the young man suddenly came to my gym and wanted to become a disciple. I looked at his qualifications and found that he had certain martial arts abilities, but because he was too weak at the time, I was worried that my traitor who had defected would destroy this good seedling, so I verbally rejected him."
"However, I didn't say anything. I just suggested that he switch to another gym. The owner of that gym is my brother, Bump, the founder of Whirlwind Slayer Iron Fist..."
"As for now, he should have become my brother's disciple!"
Having said this, Bang Gu breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a satisfied look on his face: "No one has been able to listen to me so patiently for a long time. You two come with me. I will write you the address of my brother's gym. !”
"..."
Lin Zhongtian and Li Yun stood in front of the stone steps with dark faces and did not move.
Bang Gu was startled for a moment and said in surprise: "Are there any other questions?"
"What a big problem!" Lin Zhongtian couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Why are you talking so much about something that can be explained clearly in one sentence!"
Bang Gu said with a smile: "Aren't I afraid that you don't understand the cause and effect..."
Lin Zhongtian's lips twitched: "Is there a possibility, I mean possibility, that we just want to find someone, and we don't need to understand the cause and effect."
Bang Gu blinked: "So...if you don't want the address of my brother's gym?"
"found it!"
Li Yun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up.
Banggu was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned around and saw Li Yun holding a mobile phone and handing it to Lin Zhongtian.
Lin Zhongtian took the phone, looked at the location of Bangpu Gym on the map app, then nodded, raised the phone up, and waved provocatively towards Banggu, who looked slightly stunned.
"Welcome to the 21st century!"
After saying that, Lin Zhongtian turned around, regardless of Banggu's reaction, and called Li Yun to leave together.
Looking at the two people leaving, the expression on Banggu's face gradually changed from shock to a smile. Then, he took out his mobile phone with a smile and dialed his brother Bangpu's number.
"Wai, is it Onii-chan? I'll send you two more good seedlings..."
"No, no, no, I know you already have hundreds of disciples in your gym, but these two are really good prospects and extremely powerful. I don't think you can conquer them..."
"You asked me why I didn't keep them. Of course it's because they have no intention of becoming a disciple. They came to find someone from you."
"That's right, that's the young man from two months ago... So if you want to keep them, it depends on your methods, brother!"
After saying that, Bang Gu hung up the phone, turned around with his hands behind his back, and walked into the gym happily.
He didn't really want Lin Zhongtian and Li Yun to become Bangpu's disciples. He was just out of boredom and wanted to see his brothers suffer a bit!
The life of the elderly is so simple and boring.
…
…
Different from the deserted dojo next door, Bump's dojo can be said to be a real bustling place with thousands of disciples.
As soon as Li Yun and Lin Zhongtian approached, they could hear the energetic shouts coming from the gym.
Lin Zhongtian walked into the gym first and found that there was a dedicated reception desk in the lobby on the first floor of the gym.
Seeing this scene, the two looked at each other with strange expressions, and then walked over.
As members of the Traveler Alliance, although the two have never cared about clothing, the clothes they can buy from the alliance, even ordinary clothes without any abilities, are also extremely expensive customized clothes in the ordinary world.
Therefore, after seeing the appearance and clothing of the two people, the female receptionist at the front desk brightened up and spoke enthusiastically.
"Welcome to Teacher Bump's dojo. Do you two plan to become a disciple or find someone else?"
"..."
Lin Zhongtian was slightly startled, looked at Li Yun in surprise, and then said calmly: "Looking for someone."
The female receptionist's expression did not change, and she still asked enthusiastically: "Then what kind of person are you looking for? Our gym has a large number of talents, and the disciples are also very strong. Whether you two plan to hire bodyguards or for your own The child is looking for a martial arts tutor, and we have absolutely suitable candidates for both of you to choose from..."
