"Good morning!"

When Chen Qing walked from the Nanba District where he lived to Songshan Road, where the Tiger Gate was located, the sky was already bright, and the sun slowly rose from the other side of the mountain.

The morning sun shone on one side, and the streets were full of toiling figures begging for life.

Among these people, there are stalls selling steamed buns, flour pancakes and other early vendors; There are farmers who pick fresh melons and fruits, chickens, ducks, geese and livestock to sell; There are also shops that rent and open stores and sell various goods; and carpenters, bricklayers, and so on, who stand in a certain corner, waiting for their employers, and so on.

Of course, it is also indispensable to get up early in the morning to buy the restaurant shopkeeper and the guys; Office workers commuting to work and eating breakfast here; As well as ordinary people who have a shortage of homes to buy their daily needs.

In the midst of the comings and goings, there are occasionally one or two rickshaws pulling people passing through here.

These people weave together on this side of Songshan Road to form a short bustling morning market.

In the midst of such bustle, the tiger-shaped gate also opened its doors to welcome the morning of the day's plan.

When Chen Qing arrived, there were already two teenagers wearing loose practice clothes with white upper bodies and black lower bodies at the door of the tiger-shaped gate, holding brooms to clean the door.

These two people, Chen Qing, also met yesterday, and they were among the dozen or so teenagers who practiced in the front yard.

He took the initiative to say hello, and the two teenagers looked back at him and said "good morning" in return.

Since we didn't know each other's names, we didn't talk to each other.

Walking into the door, Chen Qing saw that the other teenagers were distributed in the front yard, middle yard, and back yard to clean.

Yang Ming was not there, only another equally strong young man named "Ren Yan" was there.

At this time, this young man named "Ren Yan" crossed his arms and kept walking in the front, middle and back yards, urging the group of teenagers to clean up.

When he saw Chen Qing, he also ordered politely: "You go to the kitchen to find a rag, and follow them to wipe the piles in the front yard." ”

After hearing this, Chen Qing didn't say anything, went straight to the kitchen to find a rag and came out, joining the three teenagers who were already wiping the piles in the front yard.

"Hey, new kid, what's your name?"

During the cleaning process, one of the three teenagers who followed Chen Qing to wipe the piles asked curiously.

Chen Qing glanced at him and replied briefly, "Chen Qing." ”

"My name is Fang Yu, what are you doing?"

The man smiled and introduced himself, then asked again.

Those who can afford to pay hundreds of yuan a month to come to the martial arts gym have some strength at home, so there is no shortage of precocious minds who want to explore and make friends in it, after all, there are many friends and many roads, maybe they can be used in the future?

As an adult, Chen Qing naturally saw through the thoughts of this young man named Fang Yu at a glance.

After thinking about it, he chose to "tell the truth" and replied: "I didn't do anything, and it didn't take long for my family to move from the countryside to Qianyang." ”

If you tell a lie, you need countless lies to make it round, and Chen Qing now just wants to concentrate on practicing boxing and training his body, and he is too lazy to do useless socializing, so he simply "blew himself up".

Really!

Hearing that not long after Chen Qing's family moved from the countryside, the young man named Fang Yu said "oh", and instantly lost his interest in talking and stopped talking.

The other two's gaze was also retracted.

Later, Fang Yu and the three of them talked occasionally, but they didn't pay attention to Chen Qing anymore.

Chen Qing was also happy to be quiet, silently wiping the pile.

Soon, after the front yard, middle yard, backyard and human piles were almost cleaned, Ren Yan shouted loudly after inspecting: "Okay, put away the broom and rags, come over and gather, practice!" ”

When everyone heard the words, they quickly put down their things and came to the front yard to gather in front of the pile.

Because he didn't know this group of teenagers, Chen Qing chose to stand at the back.

Ren Yan didn't care about him, and after glancing at the assembled people, he shouted again: "Everyone is in place!" ”

When everyone heard this, they ran to a personal pile and stood up.

Chen Qing was stunned, because he had not practiced in front of the human pile.

And after everyone stood in front of the human pile, Chen Qing found that the human pile in the front yard was already full!

He immediately stepped forward and said to Ren Yan: "Senior brother, there are no more superfluous piles. ”

After Ren Yan glanced at him, he said: "There have always been how many people are in the door, how many people are placed, you only came yesterday, your human pile has not been done yet, Yang Ming is not here this morning is looking for someone to make your human pile, you will practice against the air first." ”

As soon as these words came out, the other teenagers standing in front of the stake immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha!"

This kind of laughter is similar to the laughter after being treated with special treatment in junior high school in the previous life.

To say malicious, in fact, there is not much, but to say that there is no malice at all, it is also impossible.

When Ren Yan heard these laughter, he immediately frowned, his eyes were horizontal, and he shouted: "What a laugh!" ”

For a moment, there was silence.

Chen Qing's mind is an adult, but he was not affected by the laughter just now, after listening to Ren Yan's words to let him practice in the air, he just nodded calmly and said, "Okay." ”

Then he found an open space behind the crowd and stood there, his eyes level, as if there was a stump in front of him.

In fact, it doesn't matter if he wants a pile or not, there was no one in his drill in the Intermediate Court yesterday, and the reason why he asked was just because he didn't want to be specialized.

His emotional stability made Ren Yan slightly surprised.

It's really rare to have such a calm at such an age.

After nodding secretly in his heart, Ren Yan came to everyone and shouted, "Start practicing!" ”

With an order, the teenagers in front of the pile began to pull out the "tiger step" posture one by one, and their expressions became focused and began to practice.

And Chen Qing also started a focused drill against the air.

As the [Jing] value under his eyes began to beat, Chen Qing quickly immersed himself in the incomparably standard "Tiger Step" drill.

During this period, Ren Yan clasped his hands and constantly wandered around everyone, from time to time he either made a sound or took action to correct the movements of the teenagers who were practicing one by one.

But from beginning to end, he never went to Chen Qing's vicinity.

Because, Chen Qing's actions are too standard!

"What Yang Ming said is true, this kid really practices so well!"

Ren Yan, who was wandering, kept an eye on Chen Qing behind everyone at all times, and was amazed in his heart.

Time passes......

Soon, the sun was three poles up, and the sun slowly climbed above everyone's heads.

When it was close to noon.

Outside the tiger-shaped door, a rickshaw slowly stopped.

A figure in a suit and top hat gets out of the rickshaw.

He took out the wallet from the inner pocket of his suit, took out a five-dollar bill and handed it to the coachman, and the figure walked into the tiger-shaped door.

"Huh?"

As soon as this out-of-place figure entered, it immediately attracted the attention of almost everyone in the front yard.

It's almost, because there was one more person who didn't look at him.

This person is Chen Qing.

With the drill, after the value of the fundus of the left eye beat wildly again, Chen Qing had entered a state of concentration with no distractions.

"This gentleman, you're looking for—"

Ren Yan, as a person from the Tiger Shape Gate, immediately opened his mouth to ask the other party.

But before he finished speaking, the figure took off his top hat and interrupted with a smile: "Senior Brother Ren, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't I even know Senior Brother anymore?" ”

Ren Yan, who was interrupted, was stunned for a moment after seeing the other party's appearance clearly, and immediately shouted: "Senior Brother Yan!" ”

"It seems that Senior Brother Ren still remembers me."

The man in the suit who was known as Senior Brother Yan smiled, "Okay, you are busy with you, I came because the master has something to look for me." ”

With that, he walked towards the courtyard again.

However, while leaving, his eyes also looked at Chen Qing, who was immersed in the drill, and did not withdraw his gaze until he entered the middle courtyard.

After Ren Yan heard that it was the master who was looking for the other party, he didn't say anything, but retracted his gaze, looked at the people who were practicing the "Tiger Step" again, frowned and scolded: "Whoever told you to stop, let me continue to practice!" ”

……

The man in the suit, known as "Senior Brother Yan", walked all the way through the middle courtyard and came to the backyard.

In the backyard, in the attic on the second floor.

Huang Xunhu had already heard the movement, stood on the balcony corridor on the second floor, looked at the man in the suit with his hands behind his back, and said indifferently: "Yan Hao, why are you here in person?" ”

Yan Hao, the man in the suit, smiled slightly and said, "Master finally has something to order, how can I not come in person?" ”

"Yes."

Huang Xunhu couldn't hear the emotion and said, "Come on." ”

With that, he turned around and walked into the tea room next to him.

Yan Hao smiled slightly, walked up to the second floor, and entered the tea room together.

However, when he walked into the tea room and saw He Xihong, who was sitting in the tea room and making tea with an indifferent expression, Yan Hao's figure couldn't help but stiffen.

Then, I saw him smile reluctantly: "Senior Sister Hong is also here, didn't you go to the West Continent to study?" When did you come back? ”

After He Xihong heard this, she just glanced at him, looked indifferent, and did not speak.

Huang Xunhu, who sat back at the tea table, said: "Ah Hong only came back yesterday, it's normal that you don't know." What about things? ”

When Yan Hao heard this, after reaching in and taking it down with his left hand, he grabbed the top hat that had been in his hand, took out a document bag that had been folded several times from the top hat, and then stepped forward and put it on the tea table.

After putting it away, he quickly returned to the place where he was standing just now, and glanced at He Xihong.

Immediately afterwards, I only heard him say: "After the investigation, my people still have the information in the Nanba patrol room, Master, the family you investigated is just an ordinary person who moved from Sanjia Township, which is more than 60 kilometers away from Qianyang. The man is a carpenter, the woman helps in the back kitchen of a restaurant, and has two sons, one is studying at Jiuhua, and the other is shining shoes on the side of the Grand Cross Street. ”

After a pause, he asked curiously, "Master, what are you doing investigating this family?" This is an ordinary person who can be seen everywhere in the Nanba District. ”

"It's none of your business."

Huang Xunhu reached out and picked up the folded document bag on the tea table, and while slowly opening it, he said, "Say, the purpose of your visit today." ”

"Alas, Master, what you said hurt my heart a little."

Yan Hao sighed: "I just haven't been here for a long time, and I miss you, so I took this opportunity to come and see your old man!" ”

"Really?"

Huang Xunhu looked at him, and said with a smile: "Then you have finished reading it now?" Can you go? ”

Yan Hao was speechless for a moment

Then I saw him sigh and said, "Alas, Master, don't rush me away, I and Lao Cao have already had a lot of trouble, let me enjoy the rare friendship here." ”

When Huang Xunhu heard this, he squinted his eyes slightly and said, "I said a long time ago that I will not interfere in the affairs between you and Cao Rongwu, so don't beat around the bush here, go back." ”

As soon as this sentence came out, Yan Hao couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, and the expression on his face slowly converged.

However, he quickly thought of something, and after glancing at He Xihong in the tea, he sighed "alas" and said, "Master, can you bear to see such a thing as cannibalism happening?" ”

Huang Xunhu seemed to be poked by this sentence, his brows frowned inadvertently, and then he heard him say: "If you really get to that point, you can come to me, and I will try my best to save your life." ”

“……”

Yan Hao was speechless.

After a long time, he chuckled, bowed to Huang Xunhu, and thanked him: "Then thank you, Master." ”

With that, he straightened up and left the tearoom without looking back.

After Yan Hao left, He Xihong, who had been making tea without speaking, suddenly spoke: "Master, he had a big rebellious thought just now. ”

As she spoke, a burst of cold murderous intent appeared in her indifferent eyes.

When Huang Xunhu heard this, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, we don't care about our deeds, anyone will have evil thoughts for a while, as long as you don't do it, don't care about him." Moreover, if he is really going to die, the entire Nanba will be in chaos, and many people will be killed. You're not in the right state to do that. ”

After He Xihong heard this, she didn't speak, but the killing intent in her eyes gradually calmed down.

……

"Senior Brother Ren, I'll go first."

Leaving the backyard, passing through the middle courtyard, and coming to the front yard, Yan Hao, said to Ren Yan with a smile.

After Ren Yan heard this, he politely said, "Senior Brother Yan, it's noon, let's eat again." ”

"No, there's still something to do."

Yan Hao smiled, and then looked at the young man who was focused on practicing the "Tiger Step" and had never looked at him from beginning to end.

It wasn't until he got to the door that he withdrew his gaze away.

And this incident, for Chen Qing, who was immersed in the practice of "Tiger Steps", was just a small episode during the practice.

In the next period of time, Chen Qing immersed himself in the drill "Tiger Step".

Every morning, I got up at dawn and walked from my home in Nanba District to the Huxingmen in Yunyang District, where I cleaned and then practiced.

I practiced from morning to noon, took a short break after eating, and continued to practice in the afternoon until I went home after dinner in the evening.

When I got home, I had a simple meal, and then I went to sleep, and I slept until dawn the next day.

And so on and so forth.

And after he "blew himself up", the fact that his family moved from the countryside quickly spread among other young students, so these students, who had some assets in their families, did not come to "befriend" him, which made him happy and leisurely, and he was able to concentrate more on practice.

Time whirled, and a month passed in a flash, from June to July.

And in this month, Chen Qing's practice effect has also improved by leaps and bounds, and the whole person has changed very much unconsciously!
