An Xin looked at the old man's proud look and said:
"Master, I remember you told me that none of the previous chief island owners of our East Island died well. You, the chief island owner, did not do a good job. You didn't even inherit the fine traditions of our East Island. Master, you Do you want my disciple to help me?"
"Rebel, what do you want to do? Let me tell you, you will also accept a disciple in the future. Be careful of retribution."
"Haha, I only have one criterion for accepting apprentices, and that is if the talent is better than mine. Otherwise, why would you accept an apprentice?"
"Well~ let's not talk about this whimsical topic. Let's talk about it more seriously. I haven't eaten yet and you asked your cook to make me some lunch."
The old man covered his face and said helplessly.
"Um, you haven't eaten yet."
"I haven't eaten yet. Go and ask your cook to make me something to eat. Let me tell you, I have a lot to eat now. Don't make me some ordinary dishes."
"Okay, Yin Ren, you go and see how to make some food for my master. By the way, make a bigger silver carp, cook the fish head in tofu soup, slice the fish body into thick slices, and use the fish tail and fish bones to make the soup. Bring to the boil and cook the fish fillets and the pickled cabbage.”
After hearing the old man's words, An Xin helplessly ordered to Yin Ren.
Yin Ren was also stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said:
"Boss, just talk about fish head, tofu soup and pickled fish first. Don't talk about useless things to make you look like you can cook."
Saying this, he ran into the kitchen without waiting for An Xin's reaction.
An Xin and the old man were the only ones left in the inn.
The old man glanced at Yin Ren's leaving figure, pondered for a while and said:
"This descendant of Xuhai Taoist is also an amazing talent. He is still young but has entered the middle stage of the Dragon Transformation Realm. This talent is considered top-notch even on the East Island."
"He's not that talented, he's just lucky. Descendants of Xu Hai, you know that there are too many people in this world who owe his family favors. Although the family has declined, it is still much better than those ordinary Jianghu guests. ”
"Yes. Is he interested in joining our East Island?"
"I don't know, but if I have a chance, I'll talk to him. My senior brother also proposed this issue to me."
The old man didn't speak when he heard An Xin's answer, but quietly drank the tea that An Xin made.
When An Xin saw that the old man was silent, he thought about it and said:
"Master, have you ever hated senior brother, senior sister and me?"
When the old man heard An Xin's question, he was stunned for a moment. Then he raised his head and looked at An Xin and shook his head:
"No, not even once. Even if none of you are obedient.
I still remember the first time I met you, you were knocked unconscious by your father using sweat medicine. At that time, I asked your father why he wanted you to study with me. At that time, Dongdao was not as strong as it is now. His martial arts skills are average in the arena. In fact, as the young master of the Divine Medical Pavilion, it is more than enough for you to become Wu Tianli's disciple. I still don't know the answer to this question. Your father always changed the subject when I met him several times.
When you were 5 years old, you were still very repelled by Dongdao. You thought about escaping from Dongdao every day, but every time you would be caught and spanked by me. I remember one time you escaped and broke into the sea of evil sharks in a small boat. If your senior brother hadn't been practicing there at that time, I guess... you would have poisoned all the evil sharks in that sea area. .
When you were 6 years old, you began to adapt to East Island. I also started to teach you martial arts. It was then that I discovered that your talent was so outstanding. No matter how difficult the martial arts was, you could learn it instantly, and your memory was astonishing. If you read any book in front of you once, you would be able to read it word for word. Write down. I remember one time, I taught your senior brother and sister the same set of swordsmanship at the same time. Your senior brother couldn't learn it, and your senior sister could barely swing it. You just glanced at it and learned the sword technique. At that time, your senior brother and senior sister were so angry that they starved themselves for a whole day.
As you grew older, you didn't disappoint me. By the time you were 11 years old, you were already in the early stage of the Dragon Transformation Realm. I have nothing more to teach you. But in order not to lose face in front of you. I will lead you to various islands to learn music theory, chess skills, medical theory, Qi Men Dun Jia and other crooked knowledge. You didn't disappoint me, you learned the crooked knowledge in just one year.
But that year, I remember it was six days before the Chinese New Year, you came to me and told me that the island owners of Dark Dragon Island and Silent Island called me a dog. Although I knew there was a traitor in the East Island at that time, I didn’t want to Let you know the cruelty of this world prematurely. I will tell you: You heard wrong.
But I never expected that you seemed to be a different person from that day on. I stopped making trouble every day and just kept flipping through the stories and manuals of those scheming people in the East Island Library.
During the Chinese New Year that year, everyone in Dongdao gathered together for a New Year’s Eve dinner. A disciple on Civic Island had a conflict with you. He was so angry that he cursed you, so you beat that disciple to death in front of everyone. After he was beaten to death, he said to everyone: You are the disciple of the chief island master. Let all those who want to scold him pay attention to their identity.
After this incident, everyone on the East Island became alienated from you. Of course, as time passed and you stopped doing anything excessive, the people on the East Island began to get familiar with you again. When you were 15 years old, you reached the peak of the Dragon Transformation Realm and left the East Island to enter the world alone. "
The old man said a lot, as if he was reminiscing and expressing emotion.
An Xin glanced at the old man and said:
"Do you know why I beat the disciple from Civic Island to death?"
"Of course I know. Of course it's to protect Master's status in the East Island. I understand everything."
The old man couldn't help but shed tears as he spoke.
"No, you're overthinking it. It's just because he snatched my favorite chicken drumsticks at the dinner table."
