Chapter 179: Martial Arts (14)
Nie Xiaoer and the others, who were teased by Zhang Xiaohua, no longer had the intention of watching the competition in the ring, and a few people stayed for a while before saying goodbye and going back.
Zhang Xiaohua watched them staggering away, and couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and secretly wondered if she had gone too far?
The quite dazzling ring in the Eagle Hall can be regarded as regaining calm, and the team leader Chang is also relieved, the noise in the morning, presumably Steward Xu also saw it, and I don't know whether his handling is appropriate, whether the deal is stable, and whether he can enter the eyes of Steward Xu?
The other children in the audience are very happy, anyone is surrounded by a bunch of people, the taste is uncomfortable, and this group of people is still the support group for their opponents, now it's okay, the sky is high and the clouds are light, clean, and you can concentrate on the competition.
Not to mention, Zhang Xiaohua's guilt, the apprehension of the team leader, and the relaxation of the children, but Nie Xiaoer and the others staggered out of the Eagle Hall, turned the intersection, and immediately straightened their waists, and someone said: "I didn't expect this Xiaohua to be so difficult now, I wanted to set his words and let him leak some words, but the result is good, it is more difficult than He Tianshu, Lao He just kept his mouth shut, he was good, and exchanged three words for eight sets of swordsmanship!"
Another person also said: "Yes, Zhang Xiaohua is not what it used to be, and she is no longer the country child we just met before." ”
"Hehe, yes, I still remember how he was bullied by Ma Jing'er back then. ”
"That's right, people also have to grow and mature. If you still look like you're being bullied, can you still mix in the rivers and lakes? Don't let you wash early, and go home to farm. ”
"That's what I said, but being played by this kid like this, I always feel awkward. Little Second Brother, do we really want to teach him a set of swordsmanship each?"
Nie Xiaoer nodded, with a "wicked smile" on his face, and said, "Weishenme, no, I promised him, why don't you teach others?"
"Pull it down, this is not the image of the wise little second brother in our minds, let's talk about it, what good plan do you have?"
"Hey, hey. Before Nie Xiaoer could speak, a smug laugh came out of his mouth, which made everyone even more itchy.
Seeing that everyone was anxious, Nie Xiaoer said slowly: "Let's talk about teaching Zhang Xiaohua's swordsmanship, but I didn't say how to teach it, there are many methods for this professor, and teaching by word and deed is only one of them, besides, as far as Zhang Xiaohua's kid's understanding is concerned, if it is still the same as before, if you teach him ten strokes, he will forget eight moves for you, and we will be tired to death." Also, let's just talk about the professor, but we don't say we have to teach him? I think there are two ways. First, in front of him, practice two sets of swordsmanship, regardless of whether he can learn it? Second, find a few sword books and throw them to him, so that he can read them by himself and learn them on his own, which is also a way to teach martial arts. In short, the ancients are good: he has a good plan, and I have a wall ladder. Zhang Xiaohua, why should I wait?"
Everyone clapped their hands and praised one, and then they were happy and walked away.
How did Zhang Xiaohua of the Eagle Hall know that she was being calculated by others again, and she was still doing something too much for herself, and she secretly felt guilty.
Alas, the ancients said well: ginger is old and spicy. No more deception.
Zhang Xiaohua's rest of the competition, to be honest, is really lackluster, although the opponent is different, but he has the same means against the enemy, the same guerrilla strategy, that, the result of the competition is naturally the same!
If it weren't for the process and the hands-on competition, his opponents, as well as the regular team leader, almost all had to discuss with him, and if they were dealt with as a tie, why waste time?
That stick of incense is also a copper coin, it's wasted, what a pity!
When the team leader announced a draw, Zhang Xiaohua and his opponent jumped out of the ring, and Zhang Xiaohua's group of martial arts competition was over.
Zhang Xiaohua completed her test journey in the martial arts conference with a record of nine battles and nine draws.
Then, Team Leader Chang and Team Leader Li were transcribing and calculating something, and a group of children next to them were staring at them anxiously, and Zhang Xiaohua, who was bored, suddenly understood that this group of children was waiting for their own test results, and they had been practicing martial arts for several years and had a difficult competition for three days.
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua became a little uneasy, she came to participate in this competition by herself, just to test herself, and even to put it bluntly, it was just fun! However, will it affect one of these children because of her participation?
If it does, wouldn't it be beautiful?
At this time, Zhang Xiaohua also seemed to understand that on the first day of coming, when the disciples of the Eagle Hall stared at him, he had some opinions.
However, when Zhang Xiaohua thought of her miserable record, she was relieved, how could such a result stand in anyone's way?
After a while, Team Leader Chang stopped his pen, picked up a piece of paper, had a complicated expression on his face, looked at the group of small faces in front of him, and glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, who was a little farther away from him, and then spoke: "The results of the first-order competition of cloth clothes this time have come out, and four disciples have directly advanced to the first order of cloth clothes. They are......"
Subsequently, the team leader Chang came up with the names of the four disciples, including Mu Tangchun, and the four people who called their names immediately looked radiant and happy.
The other disciples were not happy, and asked one after another, "Team Leader, aren't there five disciples who have advanced directly, why are there only four?"
Team Leader Chang explained: "Every year, it is stipulated that the five disciples who rank in the top five will advance directly, but this year's fifth place ......."
Speaking of this, Team Leader Chang pointed to Zhang Xiaohua who was standing in the distance, and said helplessly: "This fifth place is the No. 250 disciple, Zhang Xiaohua who came from Huanxi Villa to participate in our martial arts conference!"
Hearing this, the rest of the disciples all looked at Zhang Xiaohua angrily, if they changed that vision to a long sword, Zhang Xiaohua's body would immediately be poked into countless transparent holes, even if they performed ethereal steps, they couldn't escape.
And Zhang Xiaohua heard this, saying that there was no joy It would be a lie, to be able to achieve such an achievement among this group of talented disciples really made him proud and unexpected, but if it was because he accounted for an advanced index of others, it was also Zhang Xiaohua's unwillingness.
Seeing that all the disciples were about to be angry with Zhang Xiaohua, Team Leader Chang hurriedly said: "Although, there are four people who are directly advanced, according to the regulations of the martial arts conference, we can recommend two disciples with first-order strength in cloth clothes to advance, just now I discussed with Team Leader Li, considering the special nature of our group, we are ready to recommend three disciples to make up for the direct advancement index that Zhang Xiaohua occupies." ”
When the disciples heard this, they jumped up with joy, and Zhang Xiaohua also showed a happy smile.
Zhang Xiaohua walked in front of Team Chang, prepared to say goodbye, and said: "Team Chang, Xiexie, you have taken care of it in the past few days, this martial arts conference is over, and I should also go to Huanxi Villa." Hopefully I'll be able to come back next year. ”
All the disciples were dizzy, and they all said secretly in their hearts: "This guy is bad enough, it's not enough to make trouble this year, and I'm still thinking about next year." We must practice martial arts well, and wait until next year to beat him all over the ground to find teeth. ”
The team leader was very strange and asked: "Zhang Xiaohua, what do you mean by these words? You have obviously passed the first level, listen to your tone, are you going back to Huanxi Villa, are you not going to participate in tomorrow's competition?"
"There is a competition tomorrow?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and asked: "Isn't the martial arts conference over today, our competition is over, what competition will there be tomorrow?"
Only then did the team leader know that Zhang Xiaohua in front of him really didn't seem to know the content of the martial arts conference, so he patiently explained to him: "Our ethereal faction's martial arts conference is divided into three stages, commonly known as passing the three levels, the first level is the competition you have conducted in the past three days, that is, to win in the group competition and determine the order of the disciples, such as Mu Tangchun, they are now the first order of cloth clothes." The second level is by the winner of the first level, this winner does not include the disciples we just said who have been recommended to advance, and they will conduct a one-on-one competition to determine the top ten, these ten disciples, there are special rewards. Then these ten disciples have the qualification to pass the third level, and the third level is the challenge level, and these ten disciples will challenge a disciple of the previous order at will, and if they win or draw, they will obtain a higher level. ”
This time, Zhang Xiaohua understood, it turned out that she had just passed the first hurdle.
He asked curiously: "Team Leader, I just came to Huanxi Villa to participate in the martial arts conference, and it does not involve the advancement of your Ethereal Sect disciples, do you also participate in the next two level competitions?"
Team Leader Chang nodded and said: "Since you participated in our group's competition, I have specially checked the previous records, although there have been no outsiders participating in the martial arts conference in the past few decades, but a hundred years ago, there were still many outsiders who actively participated, and many people entered the second and third levels. However, there is one point, I have read the record, most of these advanced outsiders, most of them are people who have a certain reputation in the rivers and lakes, after joining the Lotus Dart Bureau, participating in this martial arts conference, their martial arts themselves are quite high, and the results, to be honest, are much better than you. ”
Zhang Xiaohua nodded, did not deny her results, and said, "That is, I have to participate in tomorrow's competition?"
Team Leader Chang smiled and said: "Of course, why don't I remind you? However, according to your results, it's okay not to participate, in the next two levels of the competition, one level is limited to three sticks of incense, and the other level is not limited to time, your way of competition, may not take advantage of it anymore, anyway, you can pass the first level, it is already good, I suggest that you still don't have to pass the next two levels." By the way, the two disciples of the Lotus Dart Game who came with you to participate in the martial arts conference had already withdrawn from the competition yesterday. ”
In fact, Zhang Xiaohua didn't know that there would be a competition tomorrow, and she didn't plan to compete with this group of children for any places, however, she just got the token of the Pharmacy Hall from He Tianshu this morning, if she didn't compete tomorrow, it was estimated that she would have to return it to others tonight, thinking about the vitality of the Pharmacy Hall, Zhang Xiaohua was a little reluctant, and this regular team leader is also, you don't tell me that there will be a competition tomorrow, you first told me, and then persuaded me not to participate, isn't it that I always have a draw, thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua was a little unhappy, and asked: "Then, if I participate, if I make it to the top ten, will I have to occupy a place in your Eagle Hall?"
Team Leader Chang likes Zhang Xiaohua very much to ask this kind of question that does not know the height of the sky, just to be able to study his knowledge, so he said: "No, the record on the gang is very clear, if you can enter the top ten, you will be given a place alone, and the disciples of our Eagle Hall will still choose ten disciples." ”
Zhang Xiaohua listened to it and said categorically: "Then I will come to participate tomorrow." ”
"Oh?" Team Leader Chang was a little surprised, and said, "Are you sure?"
Zhang Xiaohua frowned and said: "Of course I'm sure, it doesn't matter if I lose, if I win, I can compete with the second-order disciple of Buyi, and I don't suffer any losses, why don't I come?"
Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua had already decided, Team Leader Chang stopped persuading him, telling him that he would just come to the Eagle Hall as usual tomorrow, and Zhang Xiaohua said goodbye.
Out of the Eagle Hall, one of Zhang Xiaohua's thoughts was to go to the Pharmacy Hall, but after thinking about it, his second brother was still in the Ethereal Sect, and he had no reason to go somewhere else first, so he had to go back to Zhang Xiaohu's residence along the same road.
Zhang Xiaohu's small courtyard, the gate was still closed, Zhang Xiaohua walked to the door, patted the door, saw no movement, and shouted impatiently: "Second brother, it's me." ”
Sure enough, the door opened, Zhang Xiaohua walked into the door, and said unhappily: "Second brother, as for you, the door is closed every day, if they keep coming to you to pat you, will you close the door for the rest of your life?"
At this time, Zhang Xiaohu's face was covered with sweat, he wiped it slightly, and said: "Alas, I don't know, let's close the door first, my martial arts at this time are too inferior, I can't raise my head in front of others, there is really no way, only this." ”
Zhang Xiaohua noticed that the second brother was sweating profusely, and asked in surprise: "Second brother, why are you sweating so much?"
"What are you doing?" Zhang Xiaohu smiled bitterly, walked to the open space in the small courtyard, and practiced his handy Liuhe boxing method one move at a time.
Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to disturb him, so she sat on the small stone bench and watched quietly, but after watching it for a long time, Zhang Xiaohu played over and over again, without stopping, and the sweat flowed down like pulp.
Zhang Xiaohua felt that something was wrong, so she shouted: "Second brother, second brother, stop and rest." ”
But Zhang Xiaohu turned a deaf ear.
Zhang Xiaohua watched, anxious, jumped up from the small stone bench, jumped into the range of Zhang Xiaohu's tricks with an arrow step, blocked Zhang Xiaohu's fist with his left hand, and attacked Zhang Xiaohu's side with a move of the Big Dipper God Fist with his right hand, Zhang Xiaohu saw his brother's fist close, and did not answer, and waved his fist to meet it, Zhang Xiaohua did not avoid a blunt touch, feeling that the second brother's fist was very heavy, it seemed that he was really going to use all his strength, Zhang Xiaohua was afraid, and his hand was also a little heavier, so the two fought together.
After all, he now has a lot of strength in his arms, and he doesn't need any internal force to do it, but Zhang Xiaohu is not, he used to have internal strength as a foundation, and now he has completely abandoned the low-level internal strength method, and now he is fighting Zhang Xiaohua with physical strength, where is Zhang Xiaohua's opponent? If it weren't for Zhang Xiaohua's intention, Zhang Xiaohu would have been knocked to the ground by his younger brother.
Seeing that the second brother's fist was no longer as heavy as it was at the beginning, and his face was already tired, Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to fight anymore, he sold a flaw, showing a gap under his armpit, just facing Zhang Xiaohu's fist, he heard a "Peng" sound, Zhang Xiaohua fell out in response, and shouted in his mouth: "Ouch!"
This cry of pain fell on Zhang Xiaohu's ears, and he immediately collected his moves, ran to Zhang Xiaohua, carefully helped him up, and asked anxiously: "Is it injured in the armpit, how is it, is it painful?"
Seeing the second brother's anxious appearance, Zhang Xiaohua smiled secretly in her heart, but she didn't dare to show her flaws, she only frowned, and said: "Second brother, I am kind enough to accompany you to feed the tricks, why are you so ruthless, I am your own brother, you have high martial arts and don't bully me like this, ouch, it hurts." ”
Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly said with a smiling face: "Xiaohua, it's all my brother's bad feelings, my brother is in a bad mood today, if you're not careful, you take a deep breath and see if your chest is suffocating, if not, let's go to the pharmacy hall quickly, don't break you." ”
Zhang Xiaohua deliberately took a deep breath, then spit it out, closed her eyes for a while and said: "It's okay, second brother, it seems that there is nothing uncomfortable in the chest, but the place where you hit hurts, hey, second brother, why are you in a bad mood?
Zhang Xiaohu thought about it and nodded silently.
Zhang Xiaohua touched her armpit and said, "Second brother, you help me over, let's sit on the stone bench and talk about it." ”
Zhang Xiaohua looked injured, and Zhang Xiaohu had to carefully help him to the stone bench.
After sitting down, Zhang Xiaohua said again: "Second brother, I've been competing for a day, can I give some water to drink?"
Zhang Xiaohu listened, and silently took the teacup and tea from the house, Zhang Xiaohua took it, poured out two cups of tea, handed it to Zhang Xiaohu, and said, "Second brother, you can drink some too." ”
Zhang Xiaohu looked at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "You can drink it too." ”
When Zhang Xiaohua picked up the cup, Zhang Xiaohu drank it.
Both of them drank water and put the cups down, and Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "Second brother, what is going on? Let you keep practicing boxing as soon as you come back?"
Zhang Xiaohu looked up at the sky, as if he was thinking about something, and then poured another cup of tea, and said while drinking: "Actually, Xiaohua, it's nothing, it's just, alas, it's just that I feel very useless, you look at you, you don't have an apprentice, and you can't learn the boxing method completely, but you still persevere in practicing martial arts, piecing together those incomplete boxing moves, and actually practicing successfully, and, you look at your current martial arts level, even the disciples of the Ethereal Sect are not opponents, they are much stronger than me, I, I feel very useless." ”
