Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 1036: heavy hope

With money on hand, pandas naturally have confidence in their hearts.

He did not change his appearance, but walked on the street in the image of this "strong wizard". After walking around for a while, I found a busy restaurant in the busy city and walked in.

It was almost noon now, and the meal was approaching, and the restaurant was quite lively. Panda came in, and the man greeted him to sit down at a table by the corner, and then asked him what he wanted to eat.

"I'm a foreigner, and I'm not familiar with your side." Panda knows that the guy has a good eye, but he has no idea of ​​hiding, "Is there any local specialties, or the dishes that you are good at, show me. It looks good."

The guy glanced at him, nodded, and asked him if he wanted a drink.

"I don't need wine, I don't have the habit of drinking." Panda replied.

He did not have the habit of drinking, although he did drink sometimes, but it was completely different from Linghu Chong, who had no spirit without wine.

Speaking of which, Panda has actually quit drinking, more than once.

When he was studying martial arts, the master once said, "It's better to drink less wine." Even if he can’t quit all of them, he will quit once in a while, for ten days and a half months, and there will always be no harm.

"Why do you want to quit drinking? Isn't second brother Wu just the more you drink, the more powerful you are?" He was still young at the time, wondering and curiously asked.

"How do you compare Brother Wu to yourself? What a face! Brother Wu is the reincarnation of a demon star who can kill a tiger with his bare hands. We mortals can't compare to him!" At that time, the master said very unhappily, " When you can kill a tiger with your bare hands, it won't be too late to learn Wu Er brother again!"

Obviously, there is absolutely no **** on earth who can kill a tiger with his bare hands. The heavy punch of a human martial artist is probably similar to the slap that a tiger usually plays. If you want to kill a tiger with this kind of fist, even if you have to. First tie up the tiger, and then punch and kick the key for half an hour.

The pandas at that time didn’t understand this. He heard from the master that if he could kill a tiger with his bare hands, he could learn martial arts, so he enthusiastically went to practice the stele hand, a kind of horizontal practice qigong, because it is said that if you practice deep, you can It is named after the punch that broke the stone tablet.

Later, the senior brother couldn't see it, and gave him a private lesson, talking about the insurmountable physical gap between tigers and people, and he realized that he was just delusional.

Not to mention that a stele-opener might not be able to break the stele even if it is practiced. Even if it can break the stele, it is only equivalent to the strength of a tiger playing, so what's the use?

After a few more years, he realized that there is a reason why the master often persuades people to quit drinking.

Many years ago, a friend of his master's ancestor, the direct master of the Yue family's Sanshou, was assassinated in the bathhouse because he was drunk and lost his guard.

If the master was under normal circumstances, the dozen or so strong men with swords might not be able to trap him. As a result, he lost his life because of drunkenness.

After knowing the reason for the incident, the panda really listened to the teacher's teaching. Over the years, although he hasn't really stopped drinking, he has been drunk very rarely, barely... It can be regarded as meeting the master's requirements.

Pandas eat and drink while reminiscing about the past.

The guy was also very interesting, and all he sent were big pie and big meat, and the weight was full. Coupled with the stewed milky white fish soup, this table is really a big fish and a big meat.

And their price is also worthy of the reputation of this "big fish and big meat".

At least when the panda was paying, he was taken aback.

He never imagined that an ordinary meal would require four gold coins without seeing anything special!

In most cities in the Western World, ordinary strong men are full of fish and meat, as long as they don't drink alcohol, it is nothing more than five or six silver coins. He didn't eat this meal like a big eater eats a buffet, why did he eat so much money?

Where is the hope of this "city of hope", he can't see it for the time being, but the high price really makes people unable to "hope"...

Panda ate a meal for a long time. After paying, it was past noon, many guests had already left, and the restaurant was no longer busy.

Since the shop was no longer busy, he was not in a hurry to leave, ordered another pot of tea, and greeted the guy to come over and ask if there was anything to pay attention to in the city.

It is also a custom to go to the rivers and lakes after eating first and then inquiring about news.

The guy was not surprised, he was not busy, he simply sat across from him and introduced him.

"Our city of hope is very famous." As soon as he opened his mouth, he first praised the city. "Not only is the land rich and products rich, but more importantly, it is adjacent to Mount St. Francis."

"Is there anything special about this 'St. Francis Mountain'?" Panda asked curiously.

"The mountain is nothing special, but the people who live on the mountain are special." The man smiled mysteriously and said, "On this mountain, there lives the wizard."

Panda was stunned for a moment and asked, "Wizards? Don't they usually hide their whereabouts from mortals? How can you even know that they live on that mountain?"

"Because they recruit apprentices every three years." The man smiled. "That's why our city got its name."

Panda suddenly realized - the "hope" of this "city of hope" refers to the hope of becoming a wizard.

"A few years ago, I tried my luck." The guy added, "Unfortunately, I was eliminated in the first round."

"The first round? Wizards recruit apprentices, how many more rounds will they be tested?" Panda was stunned for a second—according to his impression, when wizards recruit apprentices, they should directly test their aptitude.

"Of course it will take several rounds of testing." The man put on an insider's stance and said, "The first is to test the will, and those who are not strong enough will be eliminated directly. Then the intelligence and aptitude are tested together, and both must reach a medium level, or a high level. Only a low class can be selected."

He sighed, with a look of regret on his face: "I was timid at that time and shrank in the face of danger, and as a result, I didn't even have a chance for the second round of testing. If you can give me another chance, even if I die in the test Inside, I will never back down!"

"Then why don't you try a second time?" Panda asked.

"No way, we ordinary people must be under fifteen years old to be able to take the test. I'm already in my early twenties, so I'm not eligible to sign up." Hope."

"Besides, even if I could sign up again, I wouldn't be able to pay the registration fee." He said with a wry smile, "In order to get me to sign up, my parents saved five or six years of money. Now they are old and need to be taken care of. I am old and young, and I can't save any money at all."

He sighed again and said, "Maybe... When my child grows up, I will try to save money and let him give it a try..."

Looking at his regretful yet hopeful expression, Panda didn't say anything, but frowned inwardly.

The "hope" of this "City of Hope" is too heavy for ordinary people!
