Wang Yunlong did not contact Lu Cheng from the word "Lu". After all, there are thousands of people in the world with the surname Lu. Besides, Lu Cheng looked in his early twenties at this time, so he could not be the legendary fifteen-year-old servant Lu Cheng.
Wang Yunlong waited for Lu Cheng to leave, and glanced at Lu Cheng's bed. Seeing a bag beside the pillow, his eyes flashed, but he quickly took his eyes back. Wang Yunlong thought he was doing something hidden, but everything about him was already under Lu Cheng's control. Lu Cheng was secretly alert in his heart. It seemed that his adoptive father's warning was still right. The world was dangerous and we must be careful at all times.
But Wang Yunlong did not act further, which made Lu Cheng feel no disgusted with him. He just regarded Wang Yunlong's gaze as curious. After all, he was a little curious when he looked at the props on Wang Yunlong's back and the two monkeys. But he could use his sensation to observe, but others could not know.
Although Lu Cheng was secretly alert to Wang Yunlong, he did not show it. There was nothing else in his bag except some broken silver and a few sets of changing clothes. Lu Cheng had already handled the things he brought from the three major families and buried them in a woods outside the city.
When Lu Cheng returned to the room, the waiter had already laid a bed for Wang Yunlong. In fact, it was just a floor, but it was a piece of wooden board on the ground and a thick layer of straw. Although it was not good at looking, it was warm. On a cold night, having a warm and heavy bed was a kind of enjoyment.
"Brother Lu is back?" Wang Yunlong said enthusiastically when he saw Lu Cheng coming back.
"Yeah." Lu Cheng nodded. He has been a servile servant since he was ten years old and has been chopping wood outside the Songjiazhuang. He rarely communicates with people. Especially in front of people like Wang Yunlong, he seems particularly immature.
"What kind of business do Brother Lu do?" Wang Yunlong didn't care about Lu Cheng's coldness. He tied the two monkeys to the corner, sat cross-legged on his floor, and asked with a smile.
"I... am here to visit relatives." Lu Cheng made up a reason casually. He originally thought that Wang Yunlong was just an ordinary person, but just now he used his senses to scan it and found that Wang Yunlong was actually a warrior of the third level of internal strength.
He was very surprised. What is wrong with the warriors with the third level of internal strength doing? Why do they want to be monkey-showers? Can they be an artist in the martial arts world, and their income is higher than being a guard? Of course, he will not ask these questions now.
"Why didn't you stay at your relative's house when visiting relatives?" Wang Yunlong asked. Although he had first met Lu Cheng, he could understand Lu Cheng's details in just a few words.
"The relatives are gone." Lu Cheng said sadly. He suddenly thought of the three fathers. Although he destroyed all the three major families, the melancholy in his heart did not disappear because of this.
"Life, death, illness, death, illness, death, is a common human nature, brother Lu, don't be sad." Wang Yunlong comforted him and said that he was a person who was used to life and death, and would not be sad because of life and death.
"I'm fine." Lu Cheng said embarrassedly. This was the first time he showed his true emotions in front of outsiders.
"I wonder what Brother Lu's plan is next?" Wang Yunlong asked casually.
"I don't know, just take one step at a time." Lu Cheng said that his current goal is to improve his cultivation.
Now he urgently feels the importance of becoming a strong man. In this world, if you cannot become stronger, you will only be bullied by others and be considered as a matter of course. The weak will not be sympathized with by others. The world of warriors never believes in tears.
"I wonder what business Brother Lu did in the past?" Wang Yunlong asked again. He now knew that Lu Cheng came to Datong County just to visit relatives, and his relatives were no longer there.
"I used to be a traitor." Lu Cheng said honestly.
"If Brother Lu doesn't dislike me, you can follow me. I dare not say that I have a good time. At least I can have enough food and clothing." Wang Yunlong felt moved and said enthusiastically.
"Let's talk about it." Lu Cheng's goal is to improve his cultivation, and he doesn't need to worry about life problems.
The next morning, Wang Yunlong left. He was not like Lu Cheng. Although he seemed free, he actually had to work hard to survive every day. When Lu Cheng was having breakfast in front, he suddenly heard Wang Yunlong's voice. He was next to the inn, holding two monkeys in one hand and a whip in the other. With the shouts, he quickly circled around.
Wang Yunlong kept waving the whip in his hand, and the two monkeys were in charge, doing all kinds of funny and interesting movements. They drilled into the fire ring, walked tightropes, wheelbarrows, balance beams, somersaults, and even walked standing like humans. Their behavior made others laugh.
Monkeys sometimes flicker and sometimes jump, especially when they are walking on tightropes, swaying left and right, and seemingly falling off at any time, making the bystanders sweat for them. In fact, their skillful movements are just to create a tense atmosphere.
Lu Cheng then walked over, stood in the crowd, observing the performance of the two monkeys with interest. The monkeys were quick and had a strong balance ability. Lu Cheng quickly thought of the body technique he had been experiencing. Although the monkeys were not warriors, their steps of flicking left and right, and their steps of moving forward and retreating made Lu Cheng very interested.
"Brother Wang, let me help you." Lu Cheng made a quick decision and followed Wang Yunlong for the time being. These two monkeys were trained, and their body movements were also suitable for performance, but in Lu Cheng's opinion, their body movements are the most worthy of reference for themselves. Their body movements are different from those of the monkeys on Datong Mountain. They are always under the threat of Wang Yunlong's whip, and dodging and retreating often appear in their body movements.
Wang Yunlong didn't say anything, just nodded. Lu Cheng became Wang Yunlong's follower. Lu Cheng didn't have much work, he was just responsible for setting up props such as fire rings and steel wires. At the right time, just hand over a prop to the monkey.
"Brother Lu, you seem to be very interested in Dabao and Xiaobao?" Wang Yunlong keenly noticed Lu Cheng's thoughts.
"Yes, they are fun." Lu Cheng said casually.
"If you want to learn, I can teach you." Wang Yunlong said with a smile. This is his old profession, but he is not willing to learn much. After all, playing monkeys requires sleeping in the open.
"No need, I just like watching you play monkeys." Lu Cheng shook his head gently.
Wang Yunlong didn't say much. He felt that Lu Cheng was kind-hearted and he really needed a helper. Lu Cheng used to be a chore, so it would be fine to endure hardships. In this way, Lu Cheng began to follow Wang Yunlong. Originally, Lu Cheng thought that Wang Yunlong would stay in the county town for a few more days. In this way, he could find a way to leave as long as he became familiar with the monkey's body skills. But unexpectedly, Wang Yunlong left in the afternoon, and Wang Yunlong was going to be Songjiazhuang.
