Chapter 388: Long Overdue

"Wow-"

A basin of cold water, still a little ice ballast, had just been brought up from the well, and it had been poured over the head of someone who was lying on the bed snoring loudly.

The effect is also obvious, just listen to the snoring even if it is dull.

"Pour it again!"

A very soft voice gave a command that was not very soft.

"Wow-"

Another basin of cold water, still with a little ice ballast, had just come up from the well, and it had been poured over the head of someone who was lying on the bed snoring dullly.

This time, the effect is more pronounced, and the snoring has completely stopped.

"Pour it again!"

The very soft voice gave the very unsoft order again.

"Wow-"

"Your Grandma's ——"

With this sudden earth-shattering roar, someone jumped up from the bed, and the icy droplets of water immediately trickled down his hair, face, mouth, and even nostrils......

At this time, someone's tiger eyes are spewing fire outward!

With a "bang", the guard who had just watered the water was so frightened that the copper basin in his hand immediately fell to the ground. Immediately, he saw the opportunity to turn around very quickly and ran out.

"Brother!"

Shen Qingluo stopped Shen Yunpeng by drinking in time, and didn't let him chase and kill the guy who dared to pour cold water on the head of him, the commander, who was obviously impatient.

But his people stopped, but they were still angry.

I saw him shake his head unwillingly, and then shook off a large splash of water, and then asked angrily, "Did you let that bastard do this?"

Shen Qingluo just pursed her lips and smiled, took two steps forward unhurriedly, and gently wiped the water droplets on her brother's face with the cloth towel in her hand.

Shen Yunpeng looked at his sister in a daze, his eyes full of confusion.

"Brother—"

Shen Qingluo suddenly lowered her gaze and whispered, "It's almost time now." ”

"Oh, it's time—"

Shen Yunpeng's thick eyebrows furrowed, and he didn't react for a while.

But in an instant, his eyes suddenly widened, and he yelled, "What?

He stomped his foot, but he was shocked to find that his feet were still bare.

Hurriedly and reluctantly put on a pair of boots handed over by Shen Qingluo, he rushed out of the door.

But just a few steps after running out, he suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at his sister, and asked in a deep voice, "You designed this?"

Shen Qingluo nodded slowly.

Shen Yunpeng glared, but in the end, he could only shake his head helplessly, turned around and walked outside the door again.

At this time, Shen Qingluo's words full of concern came from behind him, "Brother, remember to come back early!"

Shen Yunpeng's footsteps couldn't help but pause, and then he continued to walk forward, not daring to look back at the look on his sister's face.

But if he turned back at this time, he would be surprised to find that his sister's face did not have any worry or reluctance, but a touch of confidence, even a somewhat smug smile.

..............................

All the way to the overpass at the fastest speed, Shen Yunpeng was really anxious.

He feared that the ice had already left, and that the contest they had agreed upon would be over.

In this way, in the eyes of the world, he has become a coward who breaks his word and retreats, and he will never face the Queen Mother and his brothers again.

At the same time, Shen Yunpeng couldn't help but keep thinking, why did his sister do this?

Last night, Qingluo must have been drugged in the wine and food on that table, so that he would fall asleep, so that he missed the time of the competition.

If Qingluo's purpose is just to prevent him from going to a decisive battle with Han Bing, then why not let him stay asleep and miss this competition completely?

But she asked people to splash him up with cold water, and even specially reminded him that he had missed the time for the competition.

Moreover, seeing that he still insisted on rushing to the martial arts arena, she did not show any intention of obstructing him.

What's going on with all this?

Shen Yunpeng only felt that his brain was like a lump of paste at the moment, hearing the sound of the wind "whirring" in his ears, and seeing the pedestrians on the road screaming and dodging to the side, he actually had a feeling that he was still in a dream.

And this weird feeling actually lasted until the moment he stood on the overpass.

Seeing that the dawn of time had come, Shen Yunpeng, the belated commander of the Praetorian Guard, finally appeared on the overpass.

The spectators, who were already a little disheartened and upset, suddenly became excited, cheering loudly and exchanging happy glances with each other.

However, when they completely turned their attention to Shen Yunpeng and really saw his image at the moment, they couldn't help but be stunned one by one, becoming silent.

I saw that this commander not only had a crooked hair and scattered sideburns, but also wore a close-fitting white middle coat!

His appearance was not at all like a master who had come to participate in a life-and-death battle, but like a prisoner who had just escaped from prison.

Seeing Shen Yunpeng's unbearable embarrassment, Han Bing's eyes couldn't help but flash a gloating smile, but his face still showed an angry look.

I only heard him deliberately ask in a rough voice: "Shen Yunpeng, you only appeared at this time, but did you come to kneel down to beg for mercy?"

Shen Yunpeng was stunned by his question, and shook his head a few times in succession, but he still did not completely ease up.

Because until now, he still hasn't gotten rid of the feeling of being in a dream.

He stood there, obviously seeing Han Bing on the other side talking, but he felt that the voice he heard was quite unfamiliar, and it didn't seem to come from the young man's mouth.

He looked at Han Bing for a long time in a daze, but he couldn't see the reason at all, so he had to say angrily: "I just accidentally overslept, but I'm not here to admit defeat to you!"

When Han Bing heard this, he just sneered, but he didn't mean to make more plans with Shen Yunpeng.

He stood solemnly and saluted the commander with a fist, which was regarded as greeting the other party according to the rules of the rivers and lakes, and he was about to make a move at any time.

Shen Yunpeng originally wanted to wait for this kid to open his mouth to speak again, so as to further confirm whether he had auditory hallucinations just now, and actually heard another person's voice.

But now it seems that Han Bing doesn't want to give him this chance to confirm at all.

But it's no wonder that this young man is so impatient, according to the time of the competition agreed with each other before, Shen Yunpeng has been late for a whole hour.

That is to say, Han Bing has been blowing the cold wind for a full hour on the flyover alone, no matter how much patience he has, it has already been worn out at this time!

Although Shen Yunpeng was a little disappointed by this, he also felt that he was at a loss.

So, he didn't dare to say more, so he only solemnly hugged his fist to Han Bing and saluted back.

After that, the two of them began to concentrate their strength, allowing the true qi to circulate in the meridians around their bodies, preparing to launch a powerful attack on their opponents.

Because he came in too much of a hurry, Shen Yunpeng not only did not wear the strong outfit of the competition, but also did not bring his sword that never left his body.

However, when he received the challenge from the cold ice, he, the Commander, had already made up his mind that he would not use any blades in the upcoming competition.

His idea is actually quite simple -

First, the flyover is a royal forbidden place, and it shouldn't be dancing and swords on it.

Second, as far as he knew, Han Bing didn't carry any blades on his body. Then he himself should also fight with the other party with hand-to-hand, so as not to lose fairness.

Because Shen Yunpeng still clearly remembered that when he came to give him a war letter, Han Bing personally said that he would have a fair, just and open contest with himself.

Although due to the secret manipulation of some people, the originally extremely simple competition has become a life-and-death battle, but it cannot change the fairness of this competition.

Shen Yunpeng firmly believes that as a martial artist, he must respect the spirit of martial arts, and even if he knows that he will lose, he must also defeat above board.

And in fact, he was ready to be defeated and die, and his heart felt open and fearless.

At this moment, he stood proudly on the overpass with such a calm and open-minded mentality, ready to fight with Han Bing, a rare peerless master.

However, just when Shen Yunpeng gathered all his strength, the muscles in his body tightened, and the whole person had entered a state of strongest attack, Han Bing, who was standing on the opposite side, suddenly bared his teeth and smiled at him......
