Chapter 32: Erlong is seriously injured
Long Yuan smashed his fist on the ground, he was unwilling, even though he had been practicing desperately for half a month, he still ended up in a miserable defeat against a second-order martial artist. However, Long Yuan is not a person who can't afford to lose, he has lost many times since he was a child, and it is not bad this time. Moreover, he would have suffered a loss in the competition under such restrictions.
After reining in his emotions a little, Long Yuan retreated.
The spectators in the gladiatorial arena never paid attention to the loser, so when Long Yuan came out of the arena, their eyes turned to the other two.
Long Yuan retreated to the place where the contestants were resting, and half an hour later he was back in his race.
After wrestling with his opponent on the stage for less than a quarter of an hour, Long Yuan was defeated again, and he was also injured. However, he did not look discouraged, but thoughtful.
Long Yuan had almost forgotten that his reflexes and agility had only improved after countless defeats to his senior brothers, and the real reason for his improvement was that he had been thinking and pondering after his failures. The victory of the previous day carried him away.
Long Yuan pinched his chin and walked out of the gladiatorial arena, not paying attention to other things along the way.
After returning to the room, Long Yuan walked straight to the iron man pile, and hit the iron man pile with both hands while stepping on the space step, this time Long Yuan did not go back to the clouds and rivers of the past, but was repeatedly hit by the pile man in the process of hitting the wooden man pile. However, this did not make Long Yuan stop, he seemed to have a hint of enlightenment.
Previously, he had used space steps to maneuver or mountain walls, but he hadn't integrated them into his attacks.
After practicing like this for an hour, Long Yuan took a step back and raised his foot to kick the pile hand, and as soon as he launched his whole body, all the pile hands of the iron man pile moved, and Long Yuan also struggled to block the attack of each pile hand with his feet.
He finally realized his shortcomings, if his feet could be faster than Li Jiangyuan's stick, then he would have already severely injured Li Jiangyuan before the attack of the water and fire stick fell on him.
When Long Yuan practiced until his legs were numb, he turned over the three feet of the Zhen Domain's interception fist.
"It's still not enough training, the book says that the limit of human normalcy is to be able to punch and kick people without seeing the shadow. Speed and burst are the key to shaking the three legs. Long Yuan touched his forehead, and immediately sealed himself in the sea of qi, tied the Xuantie to his body, and went out to carry the stone burden, squatted down, and jumped up like a toad.
It looks very funny.
When the first rays of the dawn shine on the earth, it also shines on a one-legged toad in the mountains.
"Huh......" Long Yuan's originally bruised face turned red, and when he jumped back to the room, he threw down the stone to untie the Xuantie, grabbed his clean clothes and ran to the side of the mountain stream.
Thump.
Long Yuan got into it naked, and when he saw the reflection in the water, Long Yuan's brows couldn't help frowning.
"Yesterday, the little junior sister said that the fifth senior brother invited everyone to eat roast pheasant today, I was afraid that the wound on my face would be seen by her and she didn't dare to open the door, what should I do. Long Yuan touched the bruise on his face and grinned.
"Let's go to the little sister and get some gouache and wipe it. ”
Long Yuan went ashore to wipe his body, got dressed and went to Ling Qinglan's residence.
After looking around, Long Yuan pushed the door and entered Ling Qinglan's boudoir.
"Hey, where is the little junior sister's gouache?" Long Yuan searched for it in Ling Qinglan's locker, and there was only rouge in it, but the gouache was missing.
Squeak.
At that moment the door opened.
"Senior brother, you ...... Why did you come to my room early in the morning, people...... What if people don't go out and change their clothes inside. After speaking, Ling Qinglan's voice lowered because of shame.
"What did you say?" Long Yuan didn't hear clearly, and subconsciously turned his face to look at Ling Qinglan.
"Ahh ”
Long Yuan was frightened by the scream, and immediately covered his cheek with his hand and was about to go out.
Ling Qinglan pulled it back, her eyes flushed, and she said hurriedly, "Senior brother, what's wrong with you all this time, why are you always injured?"
Long Yuan's hand was ripped off by Ling Qinglan, and a face that alternated blue and red was exposed.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. Long Yuan whispered.
"Okay, if you don't say yes, I'll tell my dad to go. Ling Qinglan saw that Long Yuan didn't speak, and suddenly turned around and went out.
"Little junior sister, don't!" Long Yuan immediately stepped forward and grabbed Ling Qinglan's wrist and pulled it back. Long Yuan was basically self-proclaimed Qi Sea for a while, and at this time, his Qi Sea suddenly increased a lot after connecting his body, which also caused Long Yuan to lose his weight, and he actually pulled Ling Qinglan into his arms.
"Little junior sister, don't tell Master. Long Yuan's eyes were full of pleading.
Ling Qinglan had rarely had such intimate contact with Long Yuan since she had grown up, and an organ in her delicate body was throbbing violently, and it was only after a while that she hummed softly with shame.
"Little junior sister, why is your gouache gone?" asked Long Yuan.
"I ran out of them, and I just went to the street and bought some. Senior brother, you want to cover your wounds with gouache, right?" Ling Qinglan said as she took a half step back.
"Hmm. I don't want my brothers to know. ”
"Senior brother, what's wrong with you. You weren't like that before, and you never hid anything I asked you before. Ling Qinglan blinked at Long Yuan, with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
"I ......" Long Yuan hesitated for a long time, but still told the inner and outer courts about the competition with Longyin Villa, and he didn't even hide the fact that he went to the fighting arena.
Ling Qinglan frowned after hearing this, with the current situation, it was indeed possible for only Long Yuan to win the competition under the restrictions of the closed qi sea. Thinking of Long Yuan's injury for the sake of Longyin Villa, the displeasure in Ling Qinglan's heart turned into concern.
"Senior brother, I'll help you put it on your face. Ling Qinglan pushed Long Yuan to sit down, pursed her lips and said.
"Oh. I'm too ugly, you can help me. Long Yuan just wanted to smile, but the swelling and pain on his face did not go away, and the pain made him grin.
Ling Qinglan leaned slightly, and the slender jade pointed at the cold silk gouache and touched it lightly on Long Yuan's face, making Long Yuan feel that the touch on his face was extremely soft. The girl breathed softly, breathing like an orchid.
"Senior sister, you are so fragrant, unlike me and the fifth senior brother who always have a smell of sweat. Long Yuan inhaled slightly, and the girl's body fragrance penetrated into his lungs, making him feel like he wanted to get closer, which was extremely weak, far from reaching the point of rippling in his heart.
As soon as Ling Qinglan heard Long Yuan's words, her ears were as red as the sunlight shining through, and she immediately said with a slight annoyance: "Don't speak, otherwise it will be uneven." ”
When Ling Qinglan smeared layer by layer of gouache on Long Yuan's face, the wounds on Long Yuan's face had been completely covered, but Long Yuan's face was as white as a monster, but at least no one would find the scars around the bonfire at night.
"Senior brother, let's go to my father, it's too hard for you to cultivate by yourself like this. Ling Qinglan said.
Long Yuan shook his head and said, "Although my attainments in qi refining are not as good as yours, I also know that if I don't rely on the sea of qi, even the master can't do it. It's okay, these minor injuries are nothing. ”
Long Yuan got up and patted Ling Qinglan's fragrant shoulder, and walked out of her boudoir.
Ling Qinglan sat in front of the makeup mirror table and held her cheeks with her hands, and muttered, "Senior brother, it's so distressing." ”
Long Yuan returned to the room and fell asleep again. In the evening, the five of them lit a bonfire in the back mountain and ate the game that Qi Meiran barbecued, Su Donghe and Chen Yu made up an excuse not to come, and the bruises on Long Yuan's face were not found.
An hour later, Long Yuan, Qi Meiran and the others all went back to their rooms, and Long Yuan changed directions halfway and went to the fighting arena.
Still entering the gladiatorial arena, Long Yuan was not unexpectedly defeated by two second-order martial artists, but today Long Yuan was not as confused as yesterday, and when he fought against his opponent in the middle distance, he used his leg method to defuse the opponent's attack for more than ten rounds.
Out of the fighting arena, Long Yuan walked back to the villa with exhaustion.
It was a gloomy night weather, dark and starless, and the night wind blowing on Long Yuan made him feel cold.
When Long Yuan passed through an alley, there seemed to be something moving in the alley. Long Yuan's ears are not good at hearing, but his eyesight is different from ordinary people, and his eyes are comparable to those of an eagle falcon because of his cultivation. The faint movement in the alley was naturally discovered by Long Yuan.
Long Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, only to find that the black shadow in the alley seemed to be a person, to be precise, a teenager, because the black shadow's body was less than six feet long, and the black shadow's head didn't seem to have long hair.
The black shadow crawled on the ground with difficulty, and it took a long time to move, as if it was extremely badly wounded, and there was a smell of blood in the air.
Long Yuan walked slowly into the alley and asked tentatively, "What's wrong with you?"
The black shadow's movements suddenly stopped, and he raised his head with difficulty, and said in a loud voice, "Yes...... It's Long Yuan...... Brother Yuan?"
Dark alleys, dark nights, struggling figures.
Long Yuan couldn't see the face of the figure clearly in this darkness, but when the other party spoke, Long Yuan's whole body was shocked.
Lying on the ground turned out to be Erlong!
"Erlong!" Long Yuan exclaimed, and then he went over and half-knelt to pick up Erlong, as soon as he touched Erlong's clothes, Long Yuan suddenly felt that his hands were full of sticky and wet liquid, which was blood.
Without thinking too much, Long Yuan hugged Erlong and ran wildly to the location of the medical hall.
At this time, it was already late at night, and the medical hall on the street had long been closed, but Long Yuan couldn't manage much. After knocking a few times and no one answered, Long Yuan kicked the door of the medical hall open, put Erlong on the chair, and directly woke up the sleeping doctor and asked him to treat Erlong's injuries.
The doctor was shocked and angry, and was about to seize the door to report to the official, when Long Yuan stuffed a heavy money bag into him.
"Doctor, please don't blame you for offending, it's important to save people!" Long Yuan said urgently.
The doctor touched the money bag and felt that it was full of gold coins, and his anger disappeared at the moment, and he hurriedly lit the lamp to check Erlong's injuries.
At this time, Erlong fell on the chair, his face was pale, his breathing was weak, his lips were completely bloodless, and his condition was critical. Long Yuan didn't know why Erlong was so seriously injured, he didn't have time to ask at all.
