Pah! Zhang Yuan in the room first heard the sound of objects falling to the ground, and then there was a crackling sound outside. He stood up and pushed the door open, and saw a big carp jumping at the door! Zhang Yuan was not surprised at all. He stood in front of the railing and leaned out, and indeed found the boy floating on the water. Zhang Yuan couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Come up." The boy was Shuisheng. Recently, the other party often visited the stilt house where Zhang Yuan lived. He never came empty-handed. As the saying goes, when you give a gift to someone, you must have something to ask for.
Zhang Yuan knew very well that this guy must want to ask for his help. It was probably difficult to ask. So he used this method to impress him! And in fact, would Zhang Yuan lack this little thing? In terms of ability in the water, a hundred Shuisheng combined could not be his opponent! Despite this, Zhang Yuan decided to give the other party a chance. See what he has to say. Shuisheng climbed up the rope ladder, looking embarrassed and ashamed. Zhang Yuan didn't waste any words and asked directly: "What do you want?" He had offered money to the other party before. The boy refused. Shuisheng's face flushed red. Suddenly he knelt in front of Zhang Yuan and kowtowed: "Sir, I want to learn martial arts from you!" Learn martial arts? Zhang Yuan smiled: "What martial arts do you want to learn?" This question obviously stumped the boy. He was stunned for a moment before answering: "Whatever you are willing to teach, Shuisheng will learn!" After that, he kowtowed several times. His forehead was bruised and swollen! Zhang Yuan shook his head: "Get up, I don't accept apprentices."
He didn't plan to live here for a long time, and it was impossible for him to add a burden. Shuisheng raised his head and said with red eyes: "Sir, I just don't want to be bullied." His eyes showed stubbornness and unyielding. Zhang Yuan said calmly: "I'll say it again, you get up first." Shuisheng stood up immediately and wiped the tears from his eyes. Zhang Yuan asked: "Do you have a family?" Shuisheng shook his head: "No." "That's good." Zhang Yuan said calmly: "I have a lot of troubles. If you want to learn martial arts from me, you might die because of me one day. Have you thought it through?" Shuisheng raised his head and answered without hesitation: "I'm not afraid of death!" Zhang Yuan nodded: "Okay." The young man was overjoyed and wanted to kneel down again. As a result, Zhang Yuan held him up with his hand: "First of all, I don't accept apprentices, and you don't call me master. I don't teach you martial arts for free. You need to do things for me." He said seriously: "We are a deal!" Shuisheng was a little disappointed. But he thought this was already great, so he asked, "What should I call you then?" Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "My last name is Zhang, you can just call me Brother Zhang." Shuisheng hesitated for a moment, but still said timidly, "Zhang, Brother Zhang." "Yeah." Zhang Yuan nodded, "Tell me more about what you want to do for me." What he asked Shuisheng to do was to help him find out all kinds of news circulating in Damengze - of course, important things, not trivial and boring gossip. All the information Zhang Yuan has obtained so far is provided by Chen Qi. It's not that he doesn't trust this spy leader. It's just that there is one more source of information. Maybe he can dig out some clues to help Zhang Yuan find Yan Wushuang faster. Shuisheng is a native of Damengze. His information channels must be different from those of Chen Qi and others. Listen to both sides and you will be enlightened, listen to only one side and you will be confused, such a simple truth does not need to be explained!
As for Zhang Yuan's request, Shuisheng did not hesitate at all and agreed at once. And he promised to find ways to collect all kinds of information for Zhang Yuan through his friends. It must be said that this young man is quite smart. So Zhang Yuan first taught him the first move of "Rock Pillar Kung Fu". Zhang Yuan can't teach him many martial arts. The entry-level martial arts of the Whale Gang are definitely not good. Whether it is "Tide Palm", "Chopping Wave Knife" or "Lingbo Step", Zhang Yuan had sworn in front of the Dragon God Statue. Even if breaking the oath may not have any price, teaching it to Shuisheng is definitely asking for trouble. "Rock Pillar Kung Fu" is just the opposite. First of all, this basic martial arts for entering the power is a common one. There are many martial artists who practice it. It is not a secret that is not passed on. Secondly, "Rock Pillar Kung Fu" is a trophy that Zhang Yuan got from touching a corpse. He can teach it to anyone if he wants. In addition to "Rock Pillar Kung Fu", Zhang Yuan also taught Shuisheng a set of boxing. Subduing Tiger Fist! This set of boxing is also very ordinary. Moreover, it was the martial arts that Zhang Yuan asked others to find for him in order to complete the mission when he was in the Whale Gang. With such a martial arts technique, plus a set of boxing techniques. He was completely worthy of the river food and all kinds of messy news that Shuisheng brought every day! Although this young man did not have outstanding martial arts talent. But his diligence surprised Zhang Yuan. The most important thing was that Shuisheng's comprehension was quite high, and he basically understood everything at once, so it was not difficult to teach him. It was just that he worked too hard, and he was injured instead. Zhang Yuan had to ask the other party to stop practicing temporarily, and gave him some medicinal herbs to boil and take. Although "Rock Pillar Kung Fu" has a matching medicinal bath recipe. But it is impossible to gather all the materials on Dachen Island, and some of the medicinal herbs are expensive. It is not something an orphan can afford! Shuisheng was obedient, and the situation improved greatly after reducing the practice time. But it is obviously not a one-day effort to really get into the strength. What surprised Zhang Yuan was that this boy came to practice martial arts every day, and he never came back empty-handed.
Old turtles, river eels, river crabs, carp... The river fish he gave to Zhang Yuan were not cheap goods, and they could be sold for some money on the island. This is very interesting. Shuisheng sent another fat and fresh eel that day, and Zhang Yuan couldn't help asking: "Where did you catch it?" During this period of time, Zhang Yuan has explored all the nearby waters. He has not found such good goods. Shuisheng answered without hesitation: "These fish and turtles are all caught in one place. Brother Zhang, I can take you there now. I'm the only one who knows where it is!" Zhang Yuan was about to refuse. He suddenly had an idea and nodded and said, "Okay." These fish, shrimp and river goods are actually meaningless to Zhang Yuan. They are just to satisfy his appetite. As long as you spend money, you can eat them in the restaurants on the island. He was just curious. But Zhang Yuan also felt that the "secret place" Shuisheng mentioned might be his chance. This feeling has no reason, it's more like a sudden impulse. Or a flash of inspiration. Anyway, there's nothing to lose by going there. Why not!
