Chapter Eighty-Six: Boxing
It was getting dark, and I felt dark and went back to the barracks.
The soldiers were about to fall asleep, but Levine was excited to prepare for tonight's training.
Seeing me return, Levine was eager to try.
"Since you don't want to teach you what I taught you, why did you teach him anyway?" Leo asked.
I said, "Because he needs this." β
"Huh!" Leo smiled and stopped talking.
"Vice Captain Bihon, you're back!" Levine whispered.
I said, "Have you cleaned up all the rooms?" β
"It's been packed up a long time ago!" Levin's face was full of smugness that he couldn't hide, "And I'm not tired at all!" β
"Alright, let's get started." I say.
"Good!" Levine was even more excited, "What are you going to study today?" β
I smiled: "There is no new one, just practice yesterday's again." β
"Huh?" Levin seemed a little disappointed.
I said, "Practice with me!" β
Then, together with Levine, I started doing push-ups.
By the time he reached fifty, Levine couldn't hold it anymore.
I made two hundred, felt my arm hot, slightly sore, and stopped.
Levine looked at me in amazement, and I said, "Aren't you going to learn something new?" Let's do it to the extent that I'm talking about it first. β
Levin suddenly made a bitter face and said, "I know, in fact, there is no magic secret to becoming a strong warrior, the most important thing is to keep training!" β
"Yes!" I was somewhat relieved, "Come on, next item, sit-ups." β
"It's still ......," Levine began to complain.
"Then you give up." I say.
"Ah no, I'll do it, I'll do it!" Levin quickly lay down.
By the time he reached forty, Levin finally couldn't hold it anymore.
Seeing his pitiful appearance, I said, "Don't worry, as long as you persevere, sooner or later you will be able to practice." β
Levin nodded, but his face was still worried.
I said, "Well, you can go around the training ground a few more times, and it's okay to slow down." β
Levine started jogging and I continued to do mine.
I did more than 200 of them, and for me, it was just a warm-up.
Leo said: "Actually, you should let him jog a few laps first, and then do some difficult exercises, although you minotaurs are much stronger than humans, these general rules should be interconnected." β
"Yes," I said, "anyway, I had been training for a long time to get used to it." β
Levin was too tired to do so, and I said, "Go and rest first, and I'll wake you up tomorrow morning and learn something new." β
Levin nodded, didn't say a word, and went back to his room.
Leo said: "The fighting technique that I told you today is more powerful than military physical boxing, now you want to start learning?" β
I said, "Come on! β
Then, just as he had taught me push-ups and military boxing, Leo taught me the odd-sounding and supposedly powerful martial arts.
What Tai Chi, Bagua, Xingyi, Baji, it doesn't sound like a thing in this world when it sounds like a name.
Especially what Tai Chi boxing, it doesn't look like a fighting technique at all, and the movements are even softer, and compared to other kinds, it is not lethal at all.
What's even more strange is that Leo actually asked me to relax my muscles and prolong my breathing during the exercises, completely restraining my fighting intent and killing intent.
Halfway through, I said, "No, no more!" It's not as good as military boxing! You must be lying to me! β
Leo said: "I said that I wanted to learn, but now I don't want to learn, you are really getting older and going back, no wonder an underage chick can play you around, I haven't reminded you in the past two years, your head is afraid to return to the state of a little child, right?" β
"You don't come to this set!" I said, "You can't anger me anymore, don't think I don't know what you're up to!" β
"What other bad ideas can I have?" Leo said, "Isn't it just for you to study hard?" As I told you, if I could occupy your body, I would have learned these things three years ago! You know, on the earth, I haven't been able to learn these true martial arts, and now I know it, but I can only watch you learn it, do you know how envious I am? β
I said: "If you want to talk about military physical boxing, it is really useful in battle, but what kind of Tai Chi boxing do you say, if you continue to practice like this, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness will be lost!" β
"Hmph, to be honest, there are many people on the earth who think so, and in fact, many people can't practice at all." Leo said.
"Then you still want me to practice?" I say.
"Because they're just a simplified, mutilated version of it!" Leo said, "And what I'm telling you now, it's the full version!" β
"Are you sure that after the training, it will not cause a decrease in combat effectiveness?" I'm still not at ease.
"What's in it for me?" Leo said, "If you practice this and your strength drops, even if I occupy your body, I will still be a waste, am I crazy?" β
"You still haven't convinced me." I say.
"Love to practice or not!" Leo said, "When I take over your body, don't you just spend a little more time and practice." β
"You won't wait for that day!" I said, "I'd better review the military body boxing, and this Bagua boxing is not very good, Bajiquan is quite good." β
"Well, it's up to you," said Leo, "but when you regret it one day, I'll teach you ......."
Just like that, in the moonlight, I began to practice military boxing and bajiquan.
As for the things that fool people like Tai Chi and Bagua Boxing, I still don't learn them.
I practiced more than a dozen times, and it was late at night, so I washed up casually and slept.
The next morning, I woke up, woke Levine, and started training.
Levine was already very tired last night, but when he woke up, he was back in a state of vitality.
He's come to terms with thisβhis warrior talent has worked.
Running around town with Levine, I began to teach him military boxing.
"Alright, that's it." I said, "You should go and get breakfast ready." β
"But I haven't remembered ......," Levine said.
I said, "It's okay, I'll teach you again in the evening until you learn." β
"Hmmm! I'll study hard, Vice Captain Bihon! Levin said.
"You have to keep going, even if I'm gone." I say.
"Ah, Vice Captain Bihong, are you leaving?" Levine was taken aback.
"In four days, I'll be in Thunder City." I said, "Next, I'm going to teach you all these things, and you have to learn by heart and keep practicing!" β
"Hmm!" Levin's face became cautious, and he nodded vigorously.
I was about to wake up the soldier when Bojie walked in.
Bojie's face was strange, and he looked at me unnaturally.
"Be a thief!" Leo said.
"That's a good word...... "Thinking about Bojie and Mayor Mare's plans, I actually felt a little uncomfortable - being so polite to me turned out to be just trying to make me give up the only place to join the Bloodhoof, which is indeed a bit of a thief.
Even though they didn't say it explicitly, if they really waited for the Bloodhoof to come to Sree, I'm afraid I'd really give it up.
If it wasn't Iru telling me, but Leo saying it, I might have doubted it.
But now, everything has been clarified, and I can understand that the person who really played me was the polite and righteous captain in front of me!
I didn't give him a good look, I just said, "Captain, are you here?" β
Bojie knew that he was at a loss, and nodded awkwardly: "Hmm......"
I said, "Actually, if you have already told me about the quota, I might just go to Thunder City to find an opportunity, why do you hide it from me like this?" β
"Well, actually, it wasn't my idea...... "Bojie said embarrassedly, "and I don't want to...... However, your strength ......."
"All right now," I said, "Iru has made things clear, and I won't compete with you for this only spot." β
Bojie was silent for a while, looked at the soldiers who were getting up one after another, lowered his head, and whispered: "I'm sorry, I know you look down on me, but after all, my sister is going to get married, and I am the only boy in the family, I have to get this place......"
"Forget it," I said, "I can understand your feelings, because I am also burdened with the expectations of my family, but I will not fight for it in this way." β
Bojie looked up, and the soldiers began to come over to say hello, and then line up.
Bojie said, "Leave in four days, huh?" β
I said, "Yes." β
"I wish you all the best," said Bojie, "after all, you are still a shaman." β
"I will." I say.
The whole day had been peaceful, and as we were on patrol, we passed by the town's altar and saw Iru and the old priest cleaning the altar.
In the evenings, I continued to teach Levine training.
"Vice Captain Bihong, you, are you really leaving?" Levine was very reluctant.
"Practice well!" I said, "I'll teach you all the tricks, and the rest is up to you!" β
