Episode 56: Master and Apprentice
After many years, it is rare to see Jiang Chen again, this has been rumored to be the number one master in the martial arts world, in the teahouse, the masters in the major martial arts halls gathered, but it was a big scene that had never been seen before, and there was also a reporter Li taking pictures for everyone, which can be regarded as a fate.
Subsequently, Ip Man and Jiang Chen said goodbye and left, leaving Xu Shichang to communicate with the masters of various sects on behalf of the Wing Chun Guoshu Museum, and it was not until this time that the doubtful Reporter Li and many junior disciples had the opportunity to ask: "Who was that just now?"
"Hehe," hearing this, Tian Aoshan couldn't help but say with a little reprimand: "You little rabbits, you little rabbits, practice martial arts all day long with knives and guns, and want to become the world's first-class master, but you don't know that what you just saw is the world's first master recognized in the martial arts world today!"
"The number one master in the world?!" Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, but then they all remembered Jiang Chen, in the past few years, although Jiang Chen has not returned to Hong Kong, but because he has challenged masters from all walks of life, there will be news from time to time, the most shocking of which is that the martial arts circles around the world have publicly recommended him as the number one master in the world.
"That's right, that's my senior brother Jiang Chen!" Xu Shichang unconsciously took a little pride between his words, no way, who made Jiang Chen's aura of honor a little too dazzling.
The number one master in the world, throughout the ages, how many heroes and heroes have worked hard just to compete for this title!
Of course, there are also people who don't care about fame and fortune, such as Ye Man, as a real grandmaster, his cultivation is really high, on the way back, he just kept asking Jiang Chen about his situation over the years, about what the world's number one master said, but he didn't say a word.
Jiang Chen told his master all his experiences in 1510, including the hidden peak masters of the martial arts circles of various countries, including the cultivation of Dan Jin, the process of washing the marrow and changing blood, and now Ip Man, because of the century-old ginseng he gifted, repaired the previous secret wounds, and practiced for more than ten years, he has broken through the limit, condensed his strength, and become a strong Dan Jin, looking at the whole world, he is a first-class martial arts master.
However, after all, it is not as blessed as Jiang Chen's reincarnation talent, although Ye Man has broken into Dan Jin, he is only about to start washing the marrow and exchange blood, if he wants to completely complete this process, it will take a lot of time to cultivate, and the various insights that Jiang Chen brought back are exactly what he needs now.
Well, although as a master, in the end, it is indeed a bit regrettable that he has to rely on the apprentice's guidance in turn, but Ye Man does not mean this, he readily accepts Jiang Chen's guidance, and in the end, he asked: "Ah Chen, come back this time, do you still want to leave?"
"Go. Jiang Chen said with a little emotion: "Slowly the martial arts are endless, one mountain and one pass, I want to pursue the supreme realm of breaking the void and seeing the gods are not bad, so I am destined not to stop." ”
"Break through the void and see that God is not bad. Hearing this, Ye Man couldn't help but be stunned, and it wasn't until after half a sound that he couldn't help but sigh: "I really didn't expect that Ah Chen, your martial arts cultivation has reached such a point, since it is your dream to pursue the supreme realm of martial arts, I won't persuade you much, after all, you have always been a very assertive person." ”
"Thank you for your understanding. Jiang Chen said with a smile: "No matter whether it is possible for me to enter the legendary supreme martial arts realm in this life, I will never forget that it was the master who led me into the door of national martial arts cultivation, giving me the possibility of pursuing my dream in my heart!"
The master and apprentice chatted while walking, and from Ye Man's mouth, Jiang Chen knew a lot of things, such as Hong Zhennan was still dead, but he did not die in the ring fighting with the foreign boxing champion, but died in the arena of the battle with the disease, four years ago, because of his illness, he didn't have time to send him to the hospital, he died in his own home, and now Hong Zhennan Guoshu Society has been taken over by Zheng Weiji and renamed Hongquan Guoshu Society.
There is also about Jinshan, he is now the owner of a large fish stall, supplying fish, shrimp and seafood from half of the restaurants on Hong Kong Island, and the business is very prosperous, while several of Jiang Chen's junior disciples, Huang Liang and others, are responsible for running the factories and restaurants he organized and opened at the beginning, and the business is also good.
Jiang Chen asked about the situation at Ip Man's house again, but before Ip Man could answer, he remembered something, slapped his thigh suddenly, and said in his mouth: "Oops, it's broken!"
Seeing this, Jiang Chen hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Master, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Ye Man hurriedly laughed with a little embarrassment, "It's Yongcheng who asked me to pick up Ah Zheng from school, I forgot about it for a while, and now I'm afraid that the time is about to pass." ”
"Ah Zheng?" Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly said: "Yes, he was just born when I left, but now that so many years have passed, it is time for him to grow up and go to school." ”
"I'll take you over to see that kid, I had a fight with my classmates yesterday, but I'm skinning!" Ye Man led the way with a smile, and the two masters and apprentices walked straight to the school, although the time was tight, they were very fast, and they still arrived near the school before school.
Zhiren Primary School, is the name of the school, seeing Jiang Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart The strength of the trajectory of the wheel of fate has already changed the reincarnation of this world in a big way, I didn't expect that Ye Zheng still entered this primary school in the end.
"This is it, Ah Zheng is now in the second grade of elementary school, and school will be out in a while. At the school gate, there were already many parents waiting to pick up their children, and the two were waiting on the periphery, waiting for the school to end.
"Hey, Master Ye!" At this time, a woman who also came to pick up the child next to her saw Ye Man, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Why are you here to pick up the child today?
"Hello!" Ye Man hurriedly smiled and responded: "She has something to do today!"
The woman disagreed, "Then aren't you busy teaching boxing?"
"Ugh. Ye Man was stunned for a moment, and had to respond helplessly: "It's okay!"
"Master Ye, why are you getting younger and younger. "Women's families are like this, they like to join in the fun, plus Ip Man's reputation has always been good, and the parents next to him also came over and asked with a smile.
"Alas, then you still need to ask, Mrs. Ye's soup is moisturizing enough!"
"Yes, it's very important!" "How happy they are as a couple, how ...... like our family"
Jiang Chen on the side saw that Ip Man was surrounded by a large group of middle-aged women, but instead of stepping forward to rescue him, he quietly took a few steps back, no way, he didn't have Ip Man's good temper, he couldn't stand being teased and teased by these middle-aged women, it was better to take a step back, the sea and the sky!
"Master Ye!" Fortunately, although Jiang Chen's apprentice was not strong, Ye Man had other support, and I saw a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties walking over and shouting, freeing Ye Man from the embarrassing encirclement.
Although he was not familiar with the person who came, but at this moment, the voice of the person who came was no less than that of heaven, Ye Man hurriedly nodded with a group of middle-aged women around him, and then walked out, sighed at Jiang Chen, who had retreated far away, and then walked towards the middle-aged man, and shouted with a little gratitude: "Mr. Zhang." ”
With the information that the reincarnation watch injected to himself, Jiang Chen swept it at a glance, and after a while, he determined that this middle-aged man should be Zhang Tianzhi, the descendant of the Ryazan lineage of the Wing Chun faction.
This person has the true legend of Wing Chun, and his kung fu is very high, if Ip Man did not repair the dark injuries and break through to the realm of Dan Jin, he is afraid that he will be slightly stronger than him, and he is a real master at the peak of his strength, he is very poor, but he did not rely on his clever kung fu to steal and rob, he just relied on his own strength to pull a rickshaw to make money. Even if he went to the casino to play black boxing, in Jiang Chen's opinion, it was just a means to rely on his own ability to make money and make a living, but it didn't mean that he was a bad person.
As for a good person, he is not a good person, although he will help him when he is kidnapped, but under the threat of the casino boss Ma Whale Sheng, in order not to offend Ma Whale Sheng, in order to continue to fight black boxing, he promised to trade with Ma Whale Sheng, breaking one of Tian Aoshan's arms.
Jiang Chen has enough self-confidence, if he is in the same environment, Ye Man will definitely not be threatened by Ma Whale Sheng, and he will not agree to Ma Whale Sheng's conditions, this is the biggest gap between the two people, and it is also the difference between an ordinary martial artist and a generation of grandmasters!
