Chapter 9 Hong Zhennan Vs. Tornado

Chapter 9 Hong Zhennan vs. Tornado

Three days later in the morning, Ip Man was preparing to leave for De Nan Teahouse.

When he knew that Ye Wen planned to go alone, Hao Shuai really felt that he, as a master, was really not suitable to open a martial arts gym and be the boss! It’s such a good opportunity to promote Wing Chun (an opportunity to pretend to be a slap in the face), why don’t you take your apprentices to see it? Didn't you see the eager eyes of your disciples? Ip Man's emotional intelligence really broke Hao Shuai's heart!

If you go alone, even if you win, who will promote it for you? It's not just the big mouths of the junior brothers.

well!

Tired!

"Master, take us with you! It just allows the junior brothers to see other boxing techniques and open their horizons." Hao Shuai said.

"Okay, you guys will go too." Fortunately, Ye Wen wasn't really stupid. He came to his senses after Hao Shuai's prompting and agreed to go to De Nan Teahouse together.

At this time, the entire teahouse hall was occupied by Hong Zhennan. There was a huge round table in the middle of the hall, surrounded by inverted wooden stools.

At this time, all the famous martial arts schools in Xiangjiang arrived, and the whole hall was filled with the sound of their bragging and spanking.

While the boxers were muttering and bragging, Ip Man walked in with his disciples.

The leader, Ye Wen, was wearing a black robe and looked like a master, followed by a group of more than twenty disciples, all wearing uniform training uniforms.

Ip Man hugged his fists to everyone to say hello to the boxers. Hao Shuai led his junior brothers to stand aside.

"Master Hong." Ye Wen immediately cupped his fists and raised his hands.

Hong Zhennan directly explained the rules of the competition to Ye Wen: "Master Ye, let me tell you the rules of the competition first. You have to stand on the table and accept the challenges of the masters. If you surrender, you will lose. If you fall outside the table, you will lose. Once After the incense is burned, if you are still standing on the table, you have passed the test. If there is no problem, let’s start!”

Ye Wen didn't answer, just took off his robe, threw it to his apprentice, and slowly jumped onto the table.

Seeing Ip Man's low-key appearance, both Master Zheng and Master Luo looked at him with disdain.

At this time, Ip Man stood on the round table, cupping his hands and saying: "Hello, masters, I am Ip Man, from the Foshan Wing Chun School, and studied under Chen Huashun, I would like to ask all the masters for your advice!"

After Ip Man finished speaking, the boxers looked at each other again, but for a while no one took the lead.

Seeing that no one was playing, Hong Zhennan said, "Is there any master who wants to come up and play with both hands?"

The first one to step forward was Master Luo, who had a "slippery table" like in the movie, followed by Master Zheng. Both of them were solved by Ip Man in a few clicks.

Hao Shuai also discovered that Master Luo and Master Zheng were arranged by the director to make people laugh, just like the two Huashan elders in the Demon Cult Leader. This can be seen from the conversation between the two later in the competition between Ip Man and Tornado. .

When the boxers below saw that Ip Man was so relaxed and had won two games in a row, their expressions became unnatural. They were not as relaxed as before.

Seeing this, Hong Zhennan shouted: "Who else is interested in coming?"

Ye Wen glanced around, all the boxers, you look at me, I look at you, and then everyone drank tea and shook their heads.

Master Zheng motioned with his eyes to the boxers behind him to come forward, but they were all rejected by their hands.

Seeing this situation, Hong Zhennan stood up and planned to appear in person.

Seeing this, Hao Shuai also cheered up and prepared to observe the exciting showdown between the two masters.

Although Hong Zhennan was very fat, he jumped on the table in a way that did not match his weight.

The moment Hong Zhennan landed on the round table, the huge force pushed the round table up. Hong Zhennan did not stop, took three steps in a row, bullied himself forward, punched twice, and struck Ip Man in the face.

Ip Man used "spread his hands" to block.

The two of them fought fast and fast, and after three moves, they were half-weighted, and then they separated, each holding their fists and saying: "Please!"

The boxer below saw that Ip Man was not at a disadvantage, and was very lucky. Fortunately, he did not play, otherwise he would be embarrassed.

With a loud shout, the two fought again. Hong Fist opened and closed widely, and Hong Zhennan also shouted violently; Wing Chun fought short and close, and Ip Man used various small pushing and blocking methods to resist Hong Zhennan's attack.

Hao Shuai also saw that Hong Zhennan and Ip Man should both be in the realm of half-step strength. Hong Zhennan is tall and strong, so Hong Fist has the advantage in strength, but after all, Hong Zhennan is older and has asthma. , resulting in his poor physical fitness. Although Ip Man does not have an advantage in strength, he has high flexibility and is relatively young, giving him a great physical advantage.

Sure enough, Hong Zhennan was still able to suppress Ip Man at the beginning, but as time went by, Hong Zhennan's physical strength declined. Ip Man, relying on his youth, gradually regained his disadvantage and evenly matched Hong Zhennan.

Unfortunately, such a wonderful duel ended when the table broke and the incense time expired. The two ended in a draw.

Amid the applause and cheers of the audience, Ip Man undoubtedly joined the Hong Kong martial arts community and could officially open a gym to teach apprentices.

Hong Zhennan also asked Ip Wen to pay membership fees every month, but Hao Shuai agreed before Ip Wen could, and did not let Ip Wen, a man with negative emotional intelligence, slap everyone in the face in public.

On the way back, Ye Wen was still a little angry that Hao Shuai easily agreed to pay the membership fee, but Hao Shuai told Ye Wen about Hong Zhennan's character and actions, so he didn't say anything.

…

"Wing Chun fights Hong Quan, the two factions fight hard, and the outcome is unresolved. 》

The next day, the report of Wing Chun Ip Man's draw with Hong Quan Hong Zhennan made the headlines in Hong Kong newspapers.

Looking at the newspaper, Hao Shuai had a faint smile on his face. Knowing how to hype, Hao Shuai used his money ability to generously buy the headlines of all newspapers in Hong Kong.

So Wing Chun became popular, and Ip Man became popular too.

On this day, Ip Man's martial arts school officially opened.

As the news continued to ferment, more and more people came to the martial arts school to learn martial arts. In less than three days, the number of people who came to learn martial arts exceeded 100. That is, the newly rented martial arts school is big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people to learn martial arts at the same time.

Now Ip Man is happy every day, as if his life is already very fulfilling.

After watching the duel between Ip Man and Hong Zhennan that day, Hao Shuai felt deeply inadequate and directly handed over the chores of the martial arts school to Huang Liang. He practiced hard every day and practiced martial arts without paying attention to anything outside.

On this day, Hong Zhennan came to visit Ip Man as usual. Before leaving, he gave Ip Man two tickets for the boxing match in the evening, hoping that Ip Man would take time to watch it.

Since Hao Shuai told Ye Wen about Hong Zhennan's behavior that day, Ye Wen also understood Hong Zhennan. The two martial arts schools were not too far apart, and Ye Wen often visited him. After a while, the two became good friends.

After dinner in the evening, Ye Wen saw that Hao Shuai had been practicing boxing a little too much recently, so he asked Hao Shuai to watch the boxing match together.

Hao Shuai didn't want to go out at first, but after knowing that it was Hong Zhennan who gave him the ticket, he knew that it was the time when Hong Zhennan was killed by Tornado in the evening. Hao Shuai immediately decided to watch the match and save Hong Zhennan at the last moment.

The boxing match in the evening happened just like in the movie, where Tornado rushed onto the ring and injured everyone in the martial arts school, and insulted Chinese martial arts. Hao Shuai looked at the arrogant Tornado and almost couldn't help but kill him directly with his telekinesis, but he finally endured it. Tornado was the stepping stone for Ye Wen to become a master of Huajin, and Hao Shuai didn't want to destroy it.

As the boss of Hong Kong martial arts, facing Tornado's provocation, for the honor of martial arts, Hong Zhennan challenged Tornado.

At the beginning of the game, in the first round, Hong Zhennan, who was full of energy, relied on his rich experience and the Hongquan style of fighting to suppress Tornado. Unfortunately, Tornado took advantage of his super physical fitness to resist all of Hong Zhennan's attacks and failed to cause effective damage to Tornado.

At the end of the first round, Hao Shuai took the opportunity to ask Ip Man: "Master, who do you think will win?"

"It's hard to say. If Master Hong can fight quickly, there is still a chance. Otherwise, Master Hong is so old, and with his physical fitness, he probably can't last a few rounds." Ip Man said cautiously.

Ip Man's vision is still very sharp, and he saw the problem of Hong Zhennan at a glance. And Ip Man didn't know that Hong Zhennan had asthma.

As expected, just as Ip Man had analyzed, after the second round began, Hong Zhennan was able to fight Tornado on equal terms at first, but in the second half of the round, Hong Zhennan could not keep up with Tornado's speed and was hit several times in a row.

When the third round began, Hong Zhennan was already panting and could not keep up with Tornado's punching speed at all. He was constantly beaten by Tornado and was finally hit in the face by Tornado with a heavy punch. He fell to the ground and lay on the ground unable to get up. The referee next to him also began to count down.

When the count reached six, Hong Zhennan moved his fingers. Feeling that Hong Zhennan was about to get up and continue fighting, Hao Shuai took the opportunity to use telekinesis to press him directly to the ground, making it impossible for Hong Zhennan to get up. As a result, he was judged to lose after a ten-second timeout.

I don't know if Hao Shuai didn't control the strength of telekinesis well, or if Hong Zhennan just had an asthma attack and fainted on the stage. His apprentices felt up and carried him down to the hospital.

Although Hong Zhennan lost the game, at least he survived. If Hong Zhennan died, how would his wife and the whole family live in the future?

And someone will protect the honor of the martial arts world for Hong Zhennan.

Hao Shuai looked at the arrogant Tornado on the stage, then looked at Ye Wen next to him, and smiled meaningfully.
