Chapter Ninety-Eight: Sincerity and Perseverance

"I'll go! Brother Li has seen you! ”

When he saw Li Heng appear at the door of the house, Chen Zhouhe was shocked and shouted with joy.

"The rain seems to have fallen from the sky these days, and there are flash floods in many places, and I'm still worried about what you can do on the mountain."

Chen Zhouhe hurriedly invited Li Heng to his home, but found that his clothes were very dry and there was no sign of rain at all, but he didn't see him bring an umbrella.

"Recently, there has been chaos in the mountains, torrential rain and flash floods, and I heard from the Earthquake Bureau that there was a small earthquake of three magnitude!"

Chen Zhouhe didn't realize that the initiator of the earthquake was standing in front of him.

Li Heng just smiled and said, "What about you, you haven't been to the mountains for several days before the rainstorm, are you busy with something?"

"Huh~ this...... Nothing."

Chen Zhouhe stopped talking and smiled slightly embarrassed.

Then he prepared a meal for Li Heng and made a drink, and wanted to have a drink with him.

Seeing that he didn't want to say more, Li Heng naturally didn't ask too much, just drank and ate with him, chatted with Kanshan, and briefly talked about the situation in the mountains these days, of course, he didn't mention much about his unbelievable underground trip.

After all, it's very bizarre, he doesn't necessarily believe it when he says it, and there are some things that just let it sit quietly and don't need too many people to know.

After eating, drinking, and eating, Chen Zhouhe said that he wanted to make two moves with him, saying that he had tempered and improved himself in the past few days, and this time he would definitely be able to go two more times under him.

Li Heng just smiled and didn't say anything, but he never agreed to try with him.

Chen Zhouhe's hometown in Qinling is a few two-story buildings plus a set of brick houses, which are very simple and do not have the style of a former national champion.

And this simple pattern makes Li Heng quite familiar, like his hometown.

As for his parents, Chen Zhouhe has already arranged to go to the provincial capital, since that incident, Chen Zhouhe has spent all his savings on allowing him to return to the arena except for a part of his savings as his parents' pension.

It's a pity that he is basically lost, and now he lives alone in his hometown, and rarely contacts his parents, and is always looking for the possibility of regaining martial arts.

This is also what Li Heng admires about him, no matter what happens to him, at least filial piety cannot be lost.

At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and it was quite powerful.

Chen Zhouhe was stunned for a moment, then stood up, as if he already knew who was coming, and his face suddenly sank.

Before he could pass, the person outside the door had already pushed the door in, and said with a smile on his face, "Master! I'm here to see you! Look what I've got for you."

As he spoke, he unloaded a cloth bag from his shoulder and then took out more small bags from it, and said happily: "Fourth Uncle is a medicine shop!" You see, these are all Chinese medicines that he wanted, and they are all prescriptions for nourishing qi, nourishing blood, moisturizing the lungs, and soothing, which is good for you! ”

At this time, Li Heng saw that this entry was a sturdy young man of about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a slightly healthy dark skin, and a simple face with the simple complexion of a mountain doll, and his face was quite hearty.

"Let's go! There you go! Why is it coming again?! ”

But Chen Zhouhe didn't accept this feeling, and walked over with an unhappy face and was about to blast him out.

"Also, who is your master! When am I going to take you as an apprentice?! Walk around...... How many times have I told you, don't bother me, go home and go home"

Pushing and shoving, he drove the young man out of the door, showing no mercy to this enthusiastic young man.

"Oops...... Just go, let's go, let's go, don't push your forehead, Master. The young man was kicked out of the door and was not angry, but shouted in a hurry, "Don't come in, you have taken the medicine!" Accept it! ”

As he spoke, he threw a large bag of Chinese medicine directly into the hall of Chen Zhouhe's house, and then threw off his arms and ran away.

"Alas...... This ......"

Chen Zhouhe looked at the energetic young man who came and went like the wind, and he was a little stupid enough to go to the hall and pick up the medicine bags, and after being silent for a while, he put them away.

"Brother Li made you laugh......"

After Chen Zhouhe came back, he said to Li Heng with a wry smile.

Li Heng said with a smile on his face: "Why smile? I only saw a sincere heart and a persistent heart. ”

Chen Zhouhe was slightly stunned, his face couldn't help but be a little stagnant, and then he sighed and walked away.

Only then did Li Heng know that the reason why Chen Zhouhe didn't go up the mountain in those days was that the old problem had been committed again, and when the climate changed, he had lung disease and old injuries, coughing and wheezing, which was why the young man went all the way to the county to ask for medicine.

As for the young man, he was also a villager from the same village as him, and his number one admirer, named Lin Shishi.

Since Chen Zhouhe returned to his hometown from seclusion, he was the first person to discover this former national martial arts champion, and he was even excited all night for this, if he hadn't been stopped by Chen Zhouhe, he was afraid that the whole township would have known the next day.

It's just that it may not be a big deal to know, now it's different from the past, Chen Zhouhe's reputation is long gone, and there are few people who even remember this name.

This young man Lin Shishi is a martial arts fan, his biggest hobby is to practice martial arts, and he has admired Chen Zhouhe, who was once the "five champions" of the world since he was a child (won five consecutive domestic championships).

Since Chen Zhouhe came back, he came to visit him at two ends in three days, asking him to take him as an apprentice, practice martial arts with him, and practice boxing and leg kung fu.

In this regard, Chen Zhouhe refused all.

But after being rejected, Lin Shishi was not discouraged, he still came to see him often, and brought him some things every once in a while, sometimes Chen Zhouhe would be surprised to find that the house had been cleaned and cleaned up, and even the weeds at the door were pulled.

In this regard, Chen Zhouhe also had to soften his heart, and occasionally began to practice with him, pointing and pointing, but he never let go of his mouth to let him apprentice.

This is his obsession, his lingering obsession.

But in the world of sports, once you start to recruit apprentices, becoming a coach or teacher means the end of your career, and you will no longer play on the field.

Once he accepted the apprenticeship, it meant that he truly accepted the fact that he would never be able to return to the ring from the bottom of his heart.

This is unacceptable for Chen Zhouhe, who is convinced that he was born for martial arts and intends to die in the ring.

He doesn't want to be a coach, he doesn't want to just lead people, he still dreams of returning to the arena to compete with players from all walks of life on the same stage.

It's not famous, it's not profit-taking, it's just for the word "martial arts"!

So he couldn't accept the fact that he had become a mere coach.

At night, the rain has stopped.

Chen Zhouhe, who couldn't sleep, got up and walked to the roof of the small building, blowing the night breeze with moisture after the rain.

He shouldn't have come out to get damp, but it could bring him a touch of coolness and tranquility, and calm his irritable mind.

Bang, bang, bang-

As he went upstairs, he suddenly heard a series of beatings, and looked intently to see that in another farmhouse courtyard not far away, a shirtless young man with his muscles exposed was engrossed in striking a rudimentary wooden stake, making a crackling sound.

It was Lin Shishi, his house was not far from Chen Zhouhe's home, and it was clearly visible from the high ground.

Chen Zhouhe couldn't help but nod his head as he watched him practice martial arts, as well as the muscle lines and bone structure on his body.

It's a good seedling, and his temperament is also very persistent, quite a shadow of his own year.

This is not the first time he has seen Lin Shishi practicing martial arts, he often can't sleep and will go upstairs, and he sees this young man exercising there, persevering without arrogance or impatience, and there is a perseverance in it.

"It's a pity......"

He couldn't help but whisper to himself.

"It's a pity that although he has perseverance, there is no one to guide him, his methods are too rigid, and most of his practice moves are not in place."

A sentence suddenly came from behind him, saying what was in his heart.
