"Do you want to learn from me?"
"Uncle Wang, to be honest with you, your majestic silhouette as you take down delivery masters from the night sky has deeply captivated me! I want to be a good security guard like you!"
Su Yuan said to Uncle Wang, the Security King, who was patrolling with a look of admiration.
Uncle Wang patted Su Yuan on the shoulder, and said with a tone full of experience:
"There aren't many kids as earnest as you, you've probably saved yourself fifty years of detours compared to others."
"Everyone says security work is hard and tiring, a job only for old people who can't do tough work anymore, but only after truly becoming a security guard do you realize, the glory of youth is but a fleeting glance, simplicity is the truth."
Looking at the other's expression of sighs and lamentations, Su Yuan muttered to himself, this Old Wang is a person with stories.
"Uncle Wang, you're right. I want to start working as a security guard in our community now and learn by your side."
Su Yuan said earnestly, then with a look of regret:
"It's just a pity that I'm still a student, and can only spare time after six in the evening, unable to listen to your teachings at all times."
Uncle Wang laughed heartily:
"No worries, take it slow. I'm already very pleased that you have this intention. Come, I'll take you to handle the part-time paperwork."
[Task: Recognize the Monster as Master]
[Task Progress: 30%]
After doing the paperwork in the property security department, and getting a security uniform and an explosion-proof fork, Su Yuan walked around the community with Uncle Wang, receiving Uncle Wang's teachings.
"Su Yuan, to be a qualified security guard, you need to master a good fork skill! Flying with a Fork and using the fork without injuring are just basic skills."
"When you can break all techniques with one fork, hold a thousand deliverers at bay with a fork, that's when you've achieved great success in fork skills."
Su Yuan listened seriously, and the task progress was quickly rising.
Judging by the task progress increase, Su Yuan estimated he wouldn't need to wait until his fork skills reached great success; he just needed to know all of Security King Uncle Wang's insights on fork skills to complete the task.
After Uncle Wang demonstrated his treasured Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques, he proudly said:
"Kid, just learn it! You'll be a master in no time!"
"You've come to the right place to learn from your Uncle Wang. Back in the day, Uncle Wang was the head instructor of 800,000 security guards, with students all over communities, apartments, companies, even schools, malls, hospitals!"
"Uncle Wang is impressive."
Su Yuan immediately clapped, making sure the emotional value was maxed out.
But his thoughts became active. If even one-tenth of Old Wang's bragging is true, then the number of security guards trained under him is quite considerable.
Thinking back, those security guards he saw while delivering, their moves subtly carried Old Wang's style.
Now that he had learned Old Wang's Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques... heh heh, when I deliver, having learned from the same master, there's no way they can counter me. How will they catch me?
However, when Su Yuan looked at his task progress, he found the progress bar was only at 90%, just a little short of perfection.
Could Old Wang be holding back?
Seeing that Old Wang had no intention of continuing to teach fork skills, and instead flying with a fork, leading him on patrol through the community's various points, Su Yuan couldn't help feeling a bit anxious.
After thinking left and right, Su Yuan cautiously asked:
"Uncle Wang, your Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques are indeed extraordinarily refined, but they're just external skills. As they say, practicing skills without honing the heart is all in vain; don't we have any heart method or something?"
"Heart method?"
Old Wang stopped his flying fork, looked at Su Yuan in surprise, and sudden sparks of brilliance shot out from his murky eyes, praising:
"Su Yuan, kid, your comprehension is extraordinary! Many of my disciples don't ask me this question for decades!"
"You're spot on. I do have a heart method which I don't easily teach others. But since you pointed it out, the heart method seems destined to be shared with you."
Su Yuan was dumbfounded, he just asked casually, but there really is a heart method!
Then he saw Security King Uncle Wang look around, ensuring no one was around, and then lowered his voice to say:
"My heart method at the bottom of the chest is just one sentence—listen carefully—at the right time, fork the right person."
Upon hearing this heart method mantra, Su Yuan's task panel instantly filled up, reaching 100%.
[Task: Recognize the Monster as Master (Completed)]
[Task Reward: Randomly upgrade one of your martial arts or Daoist techniques to the Perfection stage (Granted)]
However, even though the system clearly said the reward was granted, he didn't feel any obvious changes.
"When will my skills upgrade, how will they upgrade? Will there be special effects?"
Su Yuan wondered silently.
And this contemplative expression in Uncle Wang's eyes seemed like Su Yuan was pondering the true meaning of that heart method sentence.
He lightly coughed, pretended to be profound, and said calmly:
"The essence of the heart method is simple. Take those delivery workers as an example. They don't put deliveries in the locker, but instead, rush towards the homeowner's house. Is that their intention? Of course not; it's at the homeowner's behest."
"The moment these delivery workers step into the community, we should already fork them. But the homeowner's demands won't be met, so over time, would there be resentment towards us security guards?"
"But after the delivery worker delivers to the homeowner, I then fork them down. This satisfies the homeowner's interests, confirms our security guard role, and even allows delivery workers to earn a homeowner's tip... doesn't that make everyone happy?"
Su Yuan: "..."
He understood!
Complete enlightenment!
Security work isn't about fighting and killing; it's about understanding people and relationships!
The fork moved! The fork moved!
"Many of my previous disciples were highly talented, but they were also arrogant, only wanting to display power in front of deliverymen or couriers, forgetting the homeowner's feelings, often resulting in complaints."
"Su Yuan, you must take this as a warning..."
Security King Uncle Wang said earnestly, looking at Su Yuan.
But when he saw what Su Yuan was doing now, he was utterly stunned!
Su Yuan was surrounded by flying fork shadows, with the sound of dragons and tigers howling, and thunderous sounds exploding!
Direct forks have warmth, swinging forks have strength, flying forks have accuracy, raising forks has height, slanted forks have angles, every fork has attitude!
This already has the presence of a master!
He's no longer a beginner; even a fork path genius practicing diligently for over a year doesn't have Su Yuan's current fork skills!
He had just taught Su Yuan the Divine Fork Eighteen Techniques!
Security King Uncle Wang had seen many geniuses, but compared to Su Yuan, even those geniuses had to call Su Yuan a genius!
"Could it be... did he really comprehend something true from my heart method? Or is he the legendary Innate Security Sacred Body?!"
Uncle Wang murmured to himself in disbelief.
