Chapter Ninety-Five: A Former Rival
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Lou Cheng left the "Volcano Laboratory", wiped his forehead and face with a white towel, and took the elevator back to the exclusive lounge - as a person who pays more attention to his image, he will not evaporate sweat at will, so as not to affect the breathing quality of nearby creatures.
"I'm ......" Lou Cheng unscrewed the door and stepped inside, but the words that were about to be said were blocked back into his throat by the quiet atmosphere.
In the office-like room, the golden sunlight shines through the floor-to-ceiling windows, dyeing everything in brilliant and brilliant colors, and even Yan Zheke's black hair is shrouded in halos one after another, which has a feeling like an oil painting.
The girl was looking intently at the computer screen with one hand on her cheek and the other on the mouse, next to a stack of papers with the contents on it.
Sometimes she frowned, sometimes she picked up a pen, bit the end of the end, sometimes crackled and typed on the keyboard, sometimes she wrote something on the paper, completely undistracted, even if she noticed her husband coming in, she only glanced at it with her beautiful black eyes.
Lou Cheng smiled dumbly, simply sat on the sofa, didn't say anything, just quietly stared at the little fairy busy, staring at her unconsciously biting the pen.
I don't know how long it took, Yan Zheke suddenly let out an "oops", raised his head, looked at Lou Cheng, and asked half-stunned:
"What time is it?"
"It's going to be a little bit faster. Lou Cheng pressed on the phone screen, and the afterglow swept over the numbers.
Yan Zheke pursed his lips, turned his head to look to the side, and suddenly said to himself with a little embarrassment:
"I'll just say I always want to eat something......"
"Haha, it's not too late, it's not over lunch yet. Lou Cheng stood up and walked towards the little fairy.
"Well, I want to eat crab roe buns, I want to eat white sugar cakes, I want to eat shrimp dumplings, I want to eat ......" Yan Zheke replied with a chatter, and even couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
Then she put away the paper, pens, etc., and raised her hand and said:
"I'll get the rest tomorrow!"
Lou Cheng took her hand and echoed with a smile:
"I'm going to continue tomorrow as well. ”
............
In the afternoon, Lou Cheng and Yan Zheke, who were full of food and drink, walked out of the restaurant side by side and took the escalator to the ground floor.
"There are a lot of people ...... there" When it settled, the girl looked through the window and found a group of people gathered at a certain door on the left side of the street, not knowing what they were looking at.
Lou Cheng followed her line of sight, and only saw a figure of black pressing, so he proposed with great interest: "Let's go over and take a look." ”
Even if he is a strong outsider, he also has curiosity and onlooker genes.
"Okay!" Yan Zheke was also in high spirits.
Down to the ground floor, the small couple first out of the mall gate, around 100 meters, before arriving at the crowd gathering place, found that the upper and lower floors here are decorated for a consistent style, light and elegant, deep connotation, very Dongying characteristics.
"Raven Dojo. Lou Cheng read out the name of the sign.
"Sounds like Dongying's martial arts hall......" Yan Zheke guessed thoughtfully, "I think I've heard of them, they are some ancient genre." ”
Lou Cheng looked out and saw a lot of women in kimonos, standing side by side at the door, forming a beautiful landscape, which attracted the attention of passers-by, and on the tables on both sides, there were several katanas of different lengths.
"It is indeed a dojo for martial arts training. Lou Cheng made a positive judgment.
Yan Zheke's eyes rolled up, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Does this count as stealing our jobs?"
Up, Erha, kick their pavilion, smash their cards!
When the girl was staging a rich inner drama, Lou Cheng just smiled slightly and said, "It's nothing, don't there are so many martial arts halls in the United States?
"Well, in this day and age, everybody likes novelty. Exotic martial arts, unusual atmosphere, and if you have a long history, it's hard not to be popular. Yan Zheke bit his lower lip lightly, and Li Vortex smiled lightly.
After a few idle words on this topic, she pointed to the door and said, "Go in and have a look?"
"Forget it, if I go up like this, I'm not kicking the gym but kicking the gym, and I'm bullying the weak. Lou Cheng hesitated for two seconds.
Yan Zheke puffed out his cheeks, nodded invisibly, and said, "Yes...... And this kind of dojo facing the public is not very beautiful. ”
On the second floor of the Raven Dojo, a girl in a red and white kimono walked to the window and looked out of the bustling commercial district nearby.
She is in her early sixties, with baby fat on her face, and her eyes are clear and deep, as if she is Dongying, a beautiful girl genius who is known as once in 3,000 years, and Tang Zexun, the successor of "Xinzhai Liu".
"Kaoru-chan, what are you looking at?" a girl with oblique bangs slowly approached Kaoru Karazawa.
Her facial features can only be said to be clean and natural, but when she smiles, her eyebrows and eyes are crooked, and she has a sunny taste.
Tang Zexun held the sheathed sword in his hand, and replied with a relaxed expression:
"Just looking at such a downtown area, Huaguo and Mi Guo seem to be no different from us, except for the text ......"
"But the unique feeling of the person who walks is completely different......"
"Do you all talk so strangely? It feels like a real monk. The girl who asked said with a smile on her face, "Let's talk about you, why did you suddenly apply for a visa to come to China?
Tang Zexun's gaze swept across the street, confirmed several monitoring points, and suddenly said with some sighs:
"I'm here to fulfill a wish. ”
"In the last Four Nations Tournament, I was obviously promoted to their so-called 'non-human' earlier than Peng Jun of Huaguo, but I lost to him, which is due to the fact that I didn't use real weapons, and because he is really powerful. ”
"That time I told myself to really give it my all and challenge him again......"
"I broke through and returned from the war-torn area two months ago, and found that Peng Jun even surpassed my promotion speed this time......"
"I don't want to wait any longer, I'm afraid that if I continue like this, I will lose my courage......"
"So, after I mastered all the swords of Shinsai-ryu, I immediately applied to come here. ”
Peng Leyun ...... Then why don't you go directly to Hudong?" said the girl with oblique bangs with a slight frown.
"I want to take a walk, take a look, and gather momentum. Tang Zexun's gaze moved downward, and she was suddenly stunned, because she saw a familiar figure, Lou Cheng wearing black-rimmed glasses and a dark wire hat!
The air engine was traction, and Lou Cheng was aware of it, and immediately raised his head, looked at the window on the second floor, and touched a pair of eyes like ancient wells.
Tang Zexun naturally condensed his momentum, his mind was hidden and guarded, and his right hand subconsciously stretched out to the hilt.
She is like a divine soldier sealed in a box, she has endured for a long time, waited for a long time, wiped her edge from time to time, sharpened herself, and is about to shine and cut the sky.
And at this time, she only felt that Lou Cheng seemed to disappear, and in front of her was the boundless darkness and majestic stars, which would melt if they were too close, and frozen if they were too far away.
This is so vast, so magnificent, so dangerous, so terrifying, that Tang Zexun has a feeling that if he is out of the knife, he can only make a few ripples.
This is just like she used to practice swords against the stars, the target can be a waterfall, a bamboo forest, or a boulder, but it can never be the night sky, because it will be a waste of strength and will not have any effect.
Her right hand rested on the hilt of the knife and did not hold it for a long time.
The universe faded, the starry sky faded, Lou Cheng retracted his gaze, and pulled Yan Zheke to the other end of the street.
"What happened?" asked the girl, confused.
The corners of Lou Cheng's mouth were slightly outlined, and he replied in a calm tone:
"A former rival ......"
"She's also promoted to Waigang......"
On the second floor, Tang Zexun took a breath and watched the backs of Lou Cheng and the two of them go away.
I have heard about his promotion to "Waigang", and I have also watched his recent battles, so I understand his current level......
However, compared to what happened before, he seemed to have changed in essence, and it had become very strange, strange and unprecedented!
It's also strange that I can't pull out the knife......
Seeing that Tang Zexun was silent for a long time, the girl with oblique bangs waved her palm and said:
"Kaoru-chan?"
"Huh?" Tang Zexun tilted his head blankly, his mind returning.
"What are you thinking?" asked the girl with oblique bangs, thoughtful.
Tang Zexun pondered for more than ten seconds before answering:
"There are too many 'Waigang-level' powerhouses in Huaguo. ”
"Huh?" the girl with oblique bangs waited for the following.
Tang Zexun's face darkened slightly, and he continued:
"And there are too few of us. ”
Without waiting for the girl with oblique bangs to ask again, she said to herself:
"That's why we can't organize such a large-scale top-level professional tournament and title fight, and we can't be tested every week like their 'Waigang' powerhouse, and we have to constantly improve our 'Dao' and skills. ”
"That's true......" The girl with oblique bangs couldn't deceive herself and nodded in agreement.
At this time, Tang Zexun suddenly smiled, and said in a rather ethereal tone:
"Do you think I can stay in China and participate in similar competitions?"
"They now not only have sects, but also federations and clubs, so they should be able to invite foreigners, right?"
