Chapter 24: The Dawn of the Edge
1.
In the blink of an eye, the military training of freshmen at Jinghai Normal College gradually came to an end, but the actions of the mastermind behind the scenes seemed to be disrupted by the rebellion of the ghost, so that from the last nightmare incident to the present, no abnormal situation has happened.
The other party doesn't come to find his own stubble, and Lin Xiao doesn't bother to speculate about what kind of calculation others are playing in their hearts. But it is undeniable that the saying "pressure is motivation" is true, and the current tense environment of the great enemy has allowed him to open up the third meridian - the chong vein in a short period of time.
It's a pity that despite his strength increasing several times, those memories of him in the Quadruple Building show no signs of triggering again.
During this period of time, Lin Xiao went to Ye Wuxin every day to continue his cultivation in addition to military training - he also personally went to verify her identity and confirmed that his Xiao Ye teacher was the sword idiot in the current Quadruple Building.
In addition, there are daily quarrels with Hong Chen, chatting with Yun Mengze and Yun Mengyao, and learning about the strange things in each major building in the process of talking.
There are only three days left before the end of military training, and after these three days, it will be a seven-day National Day holiday. Just when Lin Xiao began to think about the arrangements for the holiday, a sudden incident disrupted all his plans after that.
2.
"What did you say?" Lin Xiaozheng and Chen Xiao were playing the peace elite double row online, and after hearing the news, the two of them raised their heads from the screen in unison, forgetting even the operation; Chen Xiao was even more trembling, almost throwing the incendiary/bottle at his feet.
"This ...... What the hell is the martial arts conference?" Su Yiqing raised his eyebrows, "What kind of medicine did the chief instructor take again?"
With a lollipop in his mouth, Hong Chen walked to the top bunk with a vertical step, sat down on the edge of Lin Xiao's bed, and habitually hung down his two slender legs and swayed. "Haven't we been teaching military boxing lately? I heard that it seemed that a few girls from the Department of Economics and Management of the School of Economics were not serious about practicing boxing, and they were scolded by the instructor and said that this thing was as flashy as radio gymnastics, but the chief instructor who passed by the inspection heard it. β
Lin Xiao blinked and said, "I think these girls are right...... Especially the 'flashy' wording, which is simply not too pretty!"
Hong Chen sneered: "It's because there are too many people who have this idea, the chief instructor will let them go and say - let them come up with all kinds of tricks, even if they are together, he can beat them with a military body fist with one hand! As a result, those girls said that he bullied the small with the big and bullied the women with the men......
Zhou Yi's pen tip slammed on the homework paper: "These people have been transferred, right......?" If you are so slippery, you should come to us to study Chinese well, there is no reason to run to learn economics and management!"
"So......" Lin Xiao rolled his eyes, "He's going to find a few people of our age from their training base to teach them how to behave?!"
"It's not about them, it's about teaching us ......"
"At most, it will eliminate the reputation of 'bullying the small with the big', not 'bullying women with men'. β
"There are men and women from the training base. It should be men beating men, and women beating women. β
Lin Xiao and Chen Xiao glanced at each other, and then said in unison: "It's diagnosed-it's just a pain in idleness!"
Su Yiqing said: "What the hell, the chief instructor has read too many martial arts novels, and he can think of such a second-year activity, and this kind of brainless brute force flow activity is an alternative discrimination against our College of Humanities......"
But the righteous and stern look on his face was immediately replaced by another obscene expression: "But there is one thing to say...... It's also great to see girls spanking girls!"
"Eh~ This is reliable!" Lin Xiao and the three laughed together.
Hong Chen looked at the four of them speechlessly: "I'm not mistaken, which side are you on?"
Lin Xiao raised his head and looked at her with an almost ambiguous look: "Don't you want to see how your dear roommates use those tactics of scratching their faces, pulling their hair, kicking their crotches, and tickling to deal with the girls who have received regular fighting training in the training base?"
Hong Chen was silent, and after a while:
"Well, it's excellent!"
This is the end of the unnutritious conversation. When Lin Xiao got up and walked out of the dormitory to exercise his muscles, Hong Chen also came out with him, pushed his elbow behind his back a few times, and said, "Will you participate in that afternoon?"
"Take part in a yarn. Lin Xiao stretched his waist and sneered, "Just watch the excitement, what are you going on!"
"It's not up to you. Hong Chen said, "At that time, everyone must think like this, if no one is on it, the chief instructor will definitely order someone, what if it hits you?"
"You yourself said that it was just in case, isn't there 9,999 out of 10,000 left? β
"I don't think you dare......"
"Radical generals?" Lin Xiao sneered, looking very disdainful, but then said with a straight face: "I was really right, I really don't dare." β
"Damn!" Hong Chen couldn't help but scold, "I said do you want to be so cowardly?!"
Lin Xiao also involuntarily amplified his voice and said, "What are you kidding! You really think that those who came out of the military academy training base are all covered." If you go up and can't beat it, a whole year of people will watch it - I don't want to lose face, right?!"
Hong Chen sneered: "People who came out of the military academy training base didn't build it, do you think that the people who were taught by your sword idiot Ye Wuxin were built it?!"
"That's even worse. β
"What's the point this time?"
"Shouldn't you save your strength and hide your identity at this time, otherwise it will be exposed. β
"You've read too many rotten novels, haven't you? Which third-rate author would dare to arrange the plot like this?!"
Lin Xiao waved his hand impatiently: "You just don't think I'm too lazy to do it." If you call me by name, forget it, if you don't call me, I don't like to join in the fun. After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment, and then turned his head and added: "You people from the Quadruple Building have almost made my life the same as a novel, if I don't make a few more choices by myself, can I still be in charge of my future tense?!"
3.
I don't know if it's a rumor that was handed down by a bastard in ancient times, saying that "golden autumn September" must be "autumn high and refreshing". If you look at the sun in September this year, if you take a closer look, you will find that the temperature it exudes is not inferior to the scorching heat in July and August.
Especially the scene at about two o'clock in the afternoon was enough to make every student who participated in military training worse than dead!
In the very center of the playground has been set up a simple ring, four instructors stand in four corners, the ring is very similar to the format of Western boxing, giving people the feeling of ancient Chinese martial arts.
There were also two rows of bronze figures standing neatly next to the ring, both men and women, all in army green vests and camouflage trousers, which seemed to be the students brought out by the chief instructor from the training base to give themselves long faces.
"Who's coming first?"
The chief instructor stood under the ring, and the sound was like a bell.
No one responded, including the girls who were able to lift the bar before, and no one dared to squeak casually.
Hong Chen looked back at Lin Xiao who was standing in the back row of boys, and used internal force to force the sound into a line, which came into his ears: "Don't grind, can't you go up?"
Lin Xiao saw that Hong Chen's lips could not be opened, but he could transmit the voice into his ears so clearly, it seemed that he was speaking in the way of "transmitting the sound into the secret", and immediately responded with a lip shape: "I am in love with you." β
On the other end, the chief instructor had already started his usual routine: "Didn't any of you all be very tough when you spoke before? Why is there no one now! Since there is no one, then I will randomly select people!" As he spoke, his gaze drifted over the faces of the girls in the previous management department, and they were so frightened that their faces were completely bloody.
Lin Xiao said: "I bet a hundred yuan, and he will definitely choose those women from the management department." β
Hong Chen replied: "Bet, I'll bet he will choose you!"
As soon as the words fell, I heard a voice: "You go up!" I saw the chief instructor suddenly turn around and point his finger to the position of the Chinese Department of the College of Humanities.
Hong Chen's eyes widened: "I?!"
Lin Xiao was also stunned, and after reacting, he couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.
"There's a good show to watch!" Seeing Hong Chen stand up and walk into the ring with a fierce attitude, he didn't forget to turn around and glance at himself fiercely. Lin Xiao touched Chen Xiao next to him and Su Lei in the dormitory next to him with his elbow: "Look at it." β
The two of them looked worried: "What are you looking at?"
"She can hit ten at a time!"
"Really?!"
"Have you ever seen a crazy tigress spit out bones after eating someone?"
The two were so shocked by Lin Xiao's strange description that they couldn't close their mouths. At this time, Hong Chen had already stood in the ring, and the chief instructor pointed to the two rows standing on the edge of the ring: "You can choose one yourself." β
Hong Chen didn't look at it, and pointed casually: "Him!"
The woman at the head of the first row came out of the queue, but Hong Chen waved her hand: "Eldest sister, it's not you, it's the one behind you." The woman, who was about to move her muscles, froze in place, and looked behind her mechanicallyβit was a strong man with biceps that looked bigger than his head.
The audience was in an uproar, and even the chief instructor didn't react to what the situation was.
"Open open ...... What an international joke!"
Several boys were so shocked that they couldn't speak, Lin Xiao sighed, and manually closed the mouths of a few friends around him: "I said it, normal people can't do her kind of thing...... Especially the girls!"
The chief instructor also digested this information vigorously for a while, and when he spoke again, he was about to stutter: "Look...... See clearly, he ...... It's a ...... It's a man. β
Hong Chen pinched the knuckles of his fingers so that they "crackled", and said indifferently: "What's the point of a woman beating a woman, it's fun to beat a man." β
The chief instructor was almost speechless by this god-like logic, and he couldn't think of any reason to say that there was anything wrong with it, so he had to wave at the strong man and shout: "No. 1, go on!"
No. 1 obviously didn't figure out what the delicate-looking girl on the stage was thinking, if it was to find an excuse for herself to lose, wouldn't it be the same for everyone to choose? If you want to say that a normal college student can beat the military academy training base, then it is not normal!
Could it be that she wants her subordinates to show mercy?
No. 1 shook his arms and legs, simply moved his hands and feet, and got on the stage in a fog. He looked quite rough, but he was quite a gentleman, and after taking the stage, he took the initiative to put his right hand behind his back, obviously to let the other party have one hand, and it was indeed a preparatory format for military boxing, without any fancy.
"You only fight military boxing?"
"Hmm. β
"Can I fight whatever I want?"
"Hmm. β
Hong Chen suddenly smiled and said, "Then you should go down early!"
No. 1 obviously didn't react to what the other party meant, and then saw Hong Chen raise his leg and kick it in front of his chest. He didn't think that a girl's kick could cause him any kind of damage, and he didn't even have the heart to fight back, but he was lucky in the chest to make this move.
Offstage, Lin Xiao covered his eyes. Chen Xiao touched him hard: "What are you doing?"
Lin Xiao ignored him, and muttered: "Three." β
"What the hell?"
"II. β
On the stage, Hong Chen's legs were already halfway up.
Lin Xiao snapped his fingers: "One!"
With a muffled sound, Hong Chen's foot was in the chest of No. 1, and with Lin Xiao's "one" exit, I saw No. 1's face turn iron-blue, and then, his whole person flew out directly with his feet off the ground, and his back hit the rope on the side of the ring hard, but did not bounce back, but directly flipped out and fell off the ring directly under the action of inertia.
At that moment, there was silence.
A moment later, the applause and cheers of the audience resounded throughout the campus.
The girl's screams tore at everyone's eardrums, and the boys all covered their mouths, looking at the much smaller figure on the stage, but the picture of being kicked out by her involuntarily came to mind.
At this time, the expression of the chief instructor in the audience - in Lin Xiao's words - was like swallowing a piece of alive. The No. 1 got up from the ground with a grim face, and the expression on his face gradually changed from dazed to angry.
He jumped over the rope of the ring and rushed towards Hong Chen, at this time it was no longer a military boxing routine, but a Muay Thai jumping rush knee top.
"Watch your back!" exclaimed someone in the audience.
Hong Chen turned around slowly, not taking the other party's menacing attack seriously at all. She was about to kick him off the stage again, when the number one suddenly paused in mid-air, and then he flew backwards a second time and fell out of the ring, as if he had been thrown straight down.
The applause and screams of the girls became louder.
"Did you see it! Did you see it!" Chen Xiao excitedly touched Lin Xiao beside him with his elbow, but he couldn't even touch anyone after a few stretches, and when he looked back, the position was already empty, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "What about this kid?"
Su Lei was looking at the stage dumbfounded: "Above." β
As early as when No. 1 got up and turned over the rope and rushed towards Hong Chen, Lin Xiao had already jumped up from the ground and left the queue with an arrow step, and followed No. 1 on the stage like a ghost, twisting the back of his neck with his right hand, and the true qi in his body rose with it, penetrating his whole arm.
No. 1 only felt that the breath in his neck was suffocated, and his whole body seemed to be leaked in an instant, and his hands and feet were suddenly sore. Lin Xiao's steps were staggered, and he threw him directly from the ring with a move of "Meteor Catching the Moon" at the starting point.
The chief instructor was about to cry, he just wanted to take the opportunity to teach a few usually disobedient thorns so that they could train well in the last time, but he didn't think that he would be so casually pointed, and actually pointed out two masters, and beat the people he brought over as if they were playing.
Watching the play in the shade next to it are also senior students who do not need to attend classes in various majors. One of the short-haired girls approached a tall boy next to her and asked, "I would like to ask you, President......"
"Don't ask if you know it's presumptuous......"
The girl reluctantly asked, "Do you think the most powerful people in our martial arts club can survive a few rounds if they fight them?"
The tall man thought for a moment and held up a finger.
"Ten rounds?"
"You're thinking too much...... Like them, even if we practice our ability to resist blows, we may not be able to last ten rounds. β
"There's only one?!"
"Actually...... I mean...... I can't hold it with a single move!"
"Oh yes, really?!"
That No. 1 was beaten from the ring by different people under the gaze of everyone, although the first time was a light enemy and the second time was a sneak attack, but the continuous frustration also made him angry. This person has developed an incomparably strong muscle, and his ability to resist blows is really strong enough, and he can get up on his own after being kicked by Hong Chen and Lin Xiao.
He climbed over the rope and climbed into the ring, and after scanning the faces of the other two for a while, he locked his eyes on Lin Xiao's body.
He took a kick from Hong Chen head-on, knowing that this petite-looking girl contained a powerful power in her body that was extremely incompatible with her body. In this way, only this boy who carried out a sneak attack from behind seemed to be easier to deal with.
Hong Chen poked Lin Xiao in the back: "He is observing the direction of your hands and feet, it seems that he wants to do something to you." β
"I see, thank you. β
"Didn't you say that you were squatting on the spot, why did you come up again?"
"I'm 'so fragrant'!"
Hong Chen snickered and said, "It's okay." If you pay attention to his routines, you should be a guy who learns kung fu. Those who learn this kind of kung fu must have a cover door on their body that cannot be practiced, and this place is so tender and unusually soft that as long as they touch the hard work of the whole body, they will be scattered. You can see where he is the most heavily defended, just hit that place. β
"Wouldn't that be too despicable? β
"If you are despicable, then you will stand up to him!"
As soon as the words fell, the number one over there had already locked on a gap that Lin Xiao had revealed when he spoke with his head on the side, and he flew forward in a vertical step, followed by a jump, which was a flying knee posture.
Hong Chen took three steps back to make room, and Lin Xiao stood on his feet, raised his hand to block, and stopped the flying knee of No. 1 in the air. Who knew that this flying knee was just a precursor move, and then the No. 1 two punches came directly to the head, hitting the "temples" on both sides of Lin Xiao's forehead, but it was no longer Muay Thai, but a classic trick of traditional Chinese boxing - "bells and drums sounded in unison".
A boy from the Civil Engineering College in the audience saw this and shouted: "If this is a military body boxing trick, I'll eat this ring!"
Before the crowd really began to be angry, I saw Lin Xiao suddenly let go of his hands, and then took a step forward, and the whole person crashed directly into No. 1's arms, avoiding the strike range of "bells and drums ringing in unison". Immediately after, he twisted his body, and his figure shook behind the other party.
No. 1 hit the air and flashed, and before he could react, Lin Xiao had already pressed a palm on a certain acupoint in his heart, and then his true qi was urged with internal strength. No. 1 only felt sore, his knees went limp, and he fell to his knees.
"What are you doing!" the men brought by the chief instructor on the side of the ring roared together, and two or three of them rushed up directly without holding back. Hong Chen swept to the edge of the rope and kicked them all down one by one: "There is your!"
Lin Xiao moved his hand to the vital point behind the No. 1 neck, and after resisting it, he couldn't help it: "Are you still fighting?"
No. 1 has nothing to do, as long as he shows the slightest sign of struggle, Lin Xiao will be lucky, making the back of his neck sore and unbearable. At that moment, he had to lean down and slap the ground twice with his hand to show that he had admitted defeat.
The military trainees sitting around the stage and the senior students watching the battle on the side cheered at the same time, and Lin Xiao and Hong Chen were cheered up by the students of the Chinese Department as soon as they got off the stage. The chief instructor was blushing, and he couldn't find any excuse to teach them a lesson, for fear that he would accidentally hit himself in the face again, so he had to let them celebrate.
Fortunately, the instructors of each column had a bit of foresight, and quickly sorted out the formation and took them to their respective areas for training.
4.
Jinghai Normal University, Room 305, Xiude Garden.
"You eat by yourself, I'll go downstairs to the supermarket and buy some drinks." Lin Xiao put down his chopsticks and stood up.
Su Yiqing was still chewing a few pieces of pig tongue in his mouth, and said vaguely: "You are the main master, don't go, just change someone." β
Lin Xiao waved his hand: "It's okay, I'll go for a walk, and by the way, I will eliminate the accumulated food." β
Tonight, the boys of the Chinese Department spent money together to buy marinade and barbecue for a small dinner in the dormitory, saying that it was to celebrate Lin Xiao and Hong Chen slapping the instructor's face together this time, in fact, they were taking this opportunity to eat and drink nonsense. Lin Xiao didn't have to pay for it anyway, so he went with the flow and became the main master, accompanying them to eat and drink until now. After sitting for a long time, I felt a little bored, so I excused myself to go out for a walk.
Lin Xiao went downstairs and walked around casually, then went to the door of the supermarket for a while, and then went to the freezer for a little tangled, and finally picked out a large bottle of Coke, thinking that there was nothing to buy, so he went to the cashier to pay, and went out to go back to the dormitory.
After going out of the door, he didn't take a few steps when a strong fist wind hit from the back of his head. Since Lin Xiao cultivated True Qi, the sensitivity of his five senses was very comparable, and he sensed the danger at the first time, and immediately turned sideways to avoid the punch, and at the same time, his right foot quickly kicked back, and the kick kicked on the chin of the black shadow behind him with great speed.
The dark shadow was very burly, and it seemed to look familiar on closer inspection. It's just that the man's face is backed by light, and in such a dim environment, he can only tell that he is a man, and I really can't see what he looks like.
Lin Xiao's kick implied an inch of strength, if a normal person was kicked by this kick, the bones of his jaw would definitely be broken. But the man continued to force forward as if nothing had happened, but Lin Xiao's heels shook a little sore.
Lin Xiao was shocked in his heart, and his thoughts in his mind turned sharply and quickly made a judgment - this person should be a cultivator, and it may be the person he has been guarding against for the past few days, hiding in the shadows and asking for his life!
Finally, did you still find the door?!
Lin Xiao took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, and suddenly raised his hand, and the large bottle of Coke burst under the urging of true qi, and the drink was all poured on the face of the black shadow. Lin Xiao saw that he had a successful move, and took advantage of the fact that the other party was fascinated by the soda, turned around and ran away.
According to the previous analysis of Hong Chen and Yun Mengze, it is very likely that the person who manipulated and killed people behind the scenes was a direct descendant of the Ziyang Divine Sect. If that's the case, then he, a newcomer to the cultivation path, is definitely not an opponent.
Damn! I can't afford to mess with him, can't I hide it?!
Lin Xiao's body was flexible, and he came to an empty wasteland behind the dormitory building with a few jumps. The black shadow chased after him violently, and just around the corner, he was smashed on the head by Lin Xiao, who was hiding on the side, with an empty soy sauce bottle.
From ancient times to the present, apart from the hooligans and gangsters on the streets, who has a sect of disciples would do this kind of thing hiding in the dark and doing the black hand? This black shadow was caught off guard, although he practiced kung fu all his way to the house, and he didn't smash the blood this time, but after all, Lin Xiao made a secret move, and it really made him dizzy for a while.
The black shadow shook its head and came back to its senses, roared angrily, and pounced on Lin Xiao again. Lin Xiao sneered, clenched the bottle thorn in his hand, and his wrist was strong, just waiting for the flaw to be revealed when the other party pounced, he wanted to defeat the enemy with one move.
The rushing figure suddenly stopped in midair, only to see a cold light suddenly pass through his chest, and the next moment a silver-white long sword directly pinned him to the ground.
The horizontal practice is broken, and the blood is flashing.
The man was pierced by a long sword, and there was no movement on the spot.
Lin Xiao looked up in amazement and looked at the person who suddenly appeared behind the black shadow in the last second......
"Teacher Xiaoye, how do you know I'm here?"
Standing in front of him was Ye Wuxin.
"I don't know, I came with him. Ye Wuxin pulled out the Huangquan Sword on the corpse, "Ten minutes ago, he came to the library to attack me, and I chased him here. β
Lin Xiao nodded in understanding, and at the same time squatted down beside the corpse. The corpse was facing down at the moment, and Lin Xiao pulled him over by the shoulders and turned him over.
At the moment when the corpse was facing up, Lin Xiao suddenly jumped up, and cold sweat came down in an instant.
The corpse - it's Number One!
