Chapter 8 Not cowardice, from the heart!
New York's Chinatown is located in the southern end of the Mehattan district, in the same district as Li Congxin's house, not too far away, and it didn't take long for Marcus's police car to arrive.
Li Congxin found this Chinese martial arts hall called "Nalan Martial Arts Hall" according to the address sent by Old Cook, and as soon as he entered the door, a Chinese girl behind the bar next to the door saw Li Congxin's eyes light up.
It's not that this girl looks beautiful, it's just that after such a long time, it's the first time I've seen my compatriots, and I can't help but feel a little more intimate. And compared with those enthusiastic and unrestrained foreign girls, the appearance of Chinese girls looks more comfortable.
"Hello, is this gentleman planning to come to our martial arts hall to practice martial arts?" The girl is not only cute, but also speaks nicely.
Li Congxin smiled politely back, and then asked, "Hello, may I ask what kind of kung fu is taught in the Guiwu Pavilion?" ”
The girl said, "It depends on what kind of kung fu you want to learn." The kung fu taught in our martial arts hall is divided into two levels: ordinary class and elite class. ”
"The ordinary class teaches some simple and practical practical skills, 10 US dollars per party class, and 30 students in a semester."
"The elite class teaches the North Leg stunt, with 40 US knives per class, and the same 30 lessons in a semester."
"New students can take two free trial classes, and if they want to continue their studies, they will have to pay one semester's tuition at once, including the previous two classes."
Hearing this price, Li Congxin couldn't help but be secretly speechless.
A class of 40 US dollars is 1200 US dollars in a month, and in 98 years, the monthly salary of ordinary office workers may not be able to reach this figure.
Sure enough, he is poor and rich, and he really can't afford to learn without money!
After the girl finished speaking, without waiting for Li Congxin to make a decision, she added: "If you just learn some simple martial arts to defend yourself, I suggest that you still apply for the ordinary version, which is short, quick and economical." ”
Hearing the words "time is short", Li Congxin couldn't help frowning, and his face sank.
"Smack!" After taking out the bank card from his wallet, Li Congxin slapped it on the counter and said: "If you want to learn, of course, you have to learn the best, I will apply for the elite class, I will pay the money now, swipe the card!" ”
Received +6 impression from Nalan Bai!
Hearing the prompt of the system, Li Congxin was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he had been rude before, but it was too late.
"Cut! People kindly gave you advice, but if you don't appreciate it, forget it, and give me a face, it's really ungraceful! The girl complained dissatisfiedly while quickly going through the enrollment procedures for Li Congxin.
Have you really offended people?
But there's no way to explain it!
He can't tell the other party that he has caused a scandal of 9.58 seconds, so he can't hear the words "short time" in front of others, right?
"Name!"
The girl took out a form and asked without raising her head when she was about to fill it out, there was no longer the kindness she had before.
Li Congxin shrugged his shoulders helplessly, this matter was his fault, so he could only answer obediently: "Li Congxin, Muzi Li, do what you want from your heart." ”
"It's quite able to drag." Complaining in her mouth, the girl had already filled out the registration form, stuffed it into a file bag, and then directly left the file bag on the counter: "Go upstairs and turn right, the second room is the classroom of the elite class." ”
Li Congxin reached out to grab the file bag, but he didn't pick it up when he took it.
It turned out that the girl had already pressed her right hand on the file bag at some point, and at the same time stared at Li Congxin and said: "Ugly words are said in front of you, if you want to learn real kung fu, talent, hard work, and perseverance are indispensable, and it is difficult to achieve anything in the short term. ”
"Don't think that you're done with the money, if you can't endure hardship by yourself, or if you waste your efforts because of other things, you may not even be able to beat the students in the ordinary class after a semester. At that time, don't say that we don't teach well, ask for a refund or something. ”
"So, it's too late for you to regret it now."
It can be seen that this girl is a knife-mouthed tofu heart, although she is very angry, she can't help but remind Li Congxin again.
However, Li Congxin didn't want to play a ticket-style study and pull it down. Learning martial arts is a deliberate choice he made, and there are many ways to gain power in the Marvel world, but for him, the most reliable thing is to learn martial arts for the time being.
Moreover, the compatibility of martial arts is very strong, even if you get other ways to become stronger in the future, mastering a good fighting skill will not seem redundant.
Looking at those superheroes and supervillains, how many of them don't know how to fight?
Even Tony, who is rich and relies on technology, has learned Wing Chun, and a generation of supreme mages Gu Yi is a master of martial arts!
Of course, there are negative examples, such as the "invincible" Hulk, who was taught to be a man by Thanos Army's body boxing.
Shaking his head, Li Congxin said very kindly: "No need, I came here to learn real kung fu, and it is my own problem to learn not to learn, and I will not ask for a refund of tuition fees." ”
According to the girl's instructions, Li Congxin quickly found the classroom of the elite class.
The classroom was large and empty, and there were only seven people inside, one black, one white, and five yellow. One of them, a black man, a white man, and four yellow men were kicking sandbags, wooden stakes, or air, while another short-haired young man, who looked to be about twenty-five or sixteen years old, was dressed in a Tang costume and had his hands behind his back, observing the movements practiced by others with a scrutinizing eye, and from time to time he stopped someone to point out a few words and demonstrate the standard movements.
Seeing Li Congxin walk in, the short-haired young man took two steps forward and asked, "Hello, I'm Nalan Qing, the coach of the elite class of the Nalan Martial Arts Hall, is there anything wrong?" ”
Li Congxin sent the file bag and said with a smile: "I'm here to sign up for martial arts, this is my registration form." ”
Nalan Qing opened the file bag, took a look at the form, looked up at Li Congxin again, and asked in an uncertain tone, "Your name is ...... Li Yi? ”
Hearing Nalan Qing's words, the other four yellow people in the classroom were stunned for a moment, and then immediately continued their own training, but it could be seen from their movements that these guys had shifted their attention from fists and feet to their ears.
Li Congxin explained helplessly: "My name is Li Congxin, Muzi Li, and I do what I want from my heart." So, can you give me a look at the registration form? ”
Hearing Li Congxin's words, the bodies of the other four yellow people were already trembling unconsciously, obviously holding back a smile, and it was the kind that was holding back very hard, which made Li Congxin depressed for a while. Nalan Qing had a strange face, and handed over the registration form to Li Congxin without saying a word.
After receiving the registration form, Li Congxin finally knew what the problem was.
The girl's handwriting is very beautiful and delicate. It's just that when she filled in the column of Li Congxin's name, it was obviously a horizontal form, but she had to write vertically, and she still used the technique of writing and writing, so that people who are familiar with it will not admit mistakes, but people who are not familiar with it are likely to regard the two words from the heart as one.
By the way, that Nizi can't be intentional, right?
Judging from Nalan Qing's expression, she must have done it on purpose!
