A new teacher

A boy could be seen bringing water from the stream nearby. He put down buckets and asked, "What's different in this water than the one I carry in my water packets?"

"Nothing," said the middle-aged man, laughing. "It's just that I am used to this water." He put the water in and added some vegetables and meat before putting it over the fire. Then he started walking, saying, "Follow me; it will take some time for food to be ready. In the meantime, show me your skills."

The boy followed him, and they both soon appeared near the edge. There were some training dummies on the other mountain, while there was a valley in front with a pond. The middle-aged man stood there with his hands behind his back. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the cold wind blowing his long hair before turning and looking at the boy.
