Chapter 179 Martial Arts (14)

After being teased by Zhang Xiaohua, Nie Xiaoer and others no longer wanted to watch the competition in the ring. They stayed for a while and then left.

Zhang Xiaohua watched them stagger away, feeling a little guilty and wondering to herself, had she gone too far?

The rather dazzling arena in the Young Eagle Hall has finally regained its calm. Leader Chang also breathed a sigh of relief. Manager Xu must have seen the commotion in the morning, and he didn’t know whether his handling was appropriate, whether his handling was steady, and whether he could Have you caught the eye of Manager Xu?

The other children in the audience were very happy. It would be uncomfortable for anyone to be surrounded by a bunch of people. Moreover, these people were still competing against their opponents' support groups. Now it's better. The sky is clear and the clouds are clear. , you can concentrate on the competition.

Not to mention Zhang Xiaohua's guilt, Team Leader Chang's anxiety, and the children's relaxation, but Nie Xiaoer and others staggered out of the Young Eagle Hall, turned around the intersection, and immediately straightened their backs. Someone said: " I didn't expect this little flower to be so difficult to deal with now. I wanted to trick him and let him leak some words, but the result was great. It was even harder than He Tianshu. Lao He just kept silent. It would be better for him to exchange three words for it. Eight sets of sword techniques!"

Another person also said: "Yes, Zhang Xiaohua is different now. He is no longer the country boy we just met before."

"Haha, yes, I still vividly remember the way he was bullied by Ma Jing'er back then."

"That's right, people also need to grow up and mature. If you still look like you are being bullied, can you still hang out in the world? If you don't let me clean up early, it's better to go home and farm."

"That's what I said, but I always feel uncomfortable after being fooled by this kid. Second brother, do we really have to teach him a set of swordsmanship each?"

Nie Xiaoer nodded, with a "sneaky smile" on his face, and said, "Why not? You have already agreed to him, why don't you teach others?"

"Pull him down, this is not the image of the wise second brother in our minds. Come on, tell me, do you have any good strategies?"

"Hehe." Before Nie Xiaoer could say anything, he burst into a proud laugh, making everyone even more itchy.

Seeing everyone's anxious look, Nie Xiaoer said slowly: "Let's talk about teaching Zhang Xiaohua swordsmanship, but we didn't say how to teach it. There are many ways to teach, and teaching by words and deeds is just one of them. Besides, just If that kid Zhang Xiaohua's understanding is still the same as before, if you teach him ten boxing moves and he forgets eight moves, we will be exhausted. Also, we just said professor, but we didn't say it must be taught. Him? I think there are two ways. The first is to practice two sets of sword skills in front of him, regardless of whether he can learn it? The second is to find a few sword manuals, throw them to him, and let him Seeing and teaching yourself is also a way to teach martial arts. In short, he has Zhang Liang's plan, and I have a wall ladder. What can Zhang Xiaohua do to me?"

Everyone clapped their hands and praised him, and then left happily with their chests raised.

Zhang Xiaohua from Young Eagle Hall didn't know that she was being plotted against again, and she was still feeling guilty because she had gone too far.

Alas, ginger is old and spicy. No more bullying.

The rest of Zhang Xiaohua's competition, to be honest, was really lackluster. Although his opponents were different, his methods against the enemy were the same and his guerrilla strategies were the same. Well, the results of the competition were naturally the same!

If it weren't for the hands-on competition that was required according to the procedure, his opponents and Team Leader Chang would almost all have to discuss it with him and settle the matter as a draw, so why waste time?

That stick of incense is also a copper coin. What a pity it is wasted!

When Team Leader Chang announced a draw, Zhang Xiaohua and his opponent jumped down from the ring. The martial arts competition ring competition for Zhang Xiaohua's group was over.

Zhang Xiaohua completed her competition journey in the martial arts competition with a record of nine battles and nine draws.

Then, Leader Chang and Leader Li were copying and calculating something. A group of children next to them were staring at them anxiously.

Zhang Xiaohua, who was bored, suddenly understood that these children were waiting for their results in the competition. They had practiced martial arts hard for several years and competed hard for three days. Didn't they just want to pass the test of the first-level commoner?

Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua became a little uneasy. She came to participate in this competition just to test herself. To put it bluntly, it was just for fun! But, will his participation affect any one of these children?

If it were affected, wouldn’t it be very beautiful?

At this time, Zhang Xiaohua also seemed to understand. On the first day, the disciples of Young Eagle Hall looked at her with some opinions.

However, when Zhang Xiaohua thought about her disastrous record, she felt relieved. How could such results block anyone's way?

Not long after, Leader Chang stopped writing and picked up a piece of paper. With a complicated expression on his face, he looked at the group of upturned little faces in front of him, and then glanced at Zhang Xiaohua who was a little further away from him in a strange way. Then he spoke: "The results of this first-level commoner competition are out. Four disciples have directly advanced to the first-level commoner competition. They are..."

Afterwards, Leader Chang called out the names of four disciples, including Mu Tangchun. The four people whose names were called immediately glowed and beamed with joy.

The other disciples were unhappy and asked one after another: "Leader Chang, weren't there five disciples who advanced directly? Why are there only four?"

Leader Chang explained: "Every year, the rule is that the five disciples with the top five scores can advance directly, but this year the fifth place..."

At this point, Leader Chang pointed to Zhang Xiaohua standing in the distance and said helplessly: "The fifth person is disciple No. 250, Zhang Xiaohua who came from Huanxi Villa to participate in our martial arts competition!"

After hearing this, the remaining disciples all looked at Zhang Xiaohua angrily. If that look were replaced by a long sword, Zhang Xiaohua's body would immediately be poked with countless transparent holes, and they would not be able to escape even if they used Piaomiao Step.

After Zhang Xiaohua heard this, it would be a lie to say that he was not happy. He was really proud of being able to achieve such results among this group of talented disciples, and it was unexpected. But if it was because of his own Zhang Xiaohua was unwilling to give someone an indicator of advancement.

Seeing that all the disciples were angry at Zhang Xiaohua, Team Leader Chang quickly said: "Although there are four people who have advanced directly, according to the rules of the martial arts competition, we can recommend two disciples with commoner first-level strength to advance. Just now I After discussing with Team Leader Li, considering the special nature of our group, we are going to recommend three disciples to make up for the direct advancement indicator occupied by Zhang Xiaohua."

When the disciples heard this, they cheered again, and Zhang Xiaohua also showed a happy smile.

Zhang Xiaohua walked up to Leader Chang, prepared to salute and say goodbye, and said: "Leader Chang, thank you for taking care of me these days. This martial arts competition is over, and it's time for me to return to Huanxi Villa. I hope I can come to participate in the competition next year."

All the disciples were stunned and thought to themselves: "This guy is bad enough. This year is not enough to cause trouble. He is also thinking about next year. We must practice martial arts well and beat him to pieces next year."

The team leader Chang was very surprised and asked: "Zhang Xiaohua, what do you mean by these words? You have obviously passed the first level. From your tone, you want to go back to Huanxi Villa and are not going to participate in tomorrow's competition. ?”

"There will be a competition tomorrow?" Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and asked: "Isn't the martial arts competition ended today? Our competition is over, what competition is there tomorrow?"

Only then did Leader Chang realize that Zhang Xiaohua in front of him seemed to really not know the content of the martial arts competition, so he patiently explained to him: "The martial arts competition of our Miao Miao sect is divided into three stages, commonly known as passing three levels. The first level It is the competition you have conducted in the past three days, which is to win the group competition and determine the level of the disciples. For example, Mu Tangchun and others are now the first level of Buyi. The second level is determined by the winner of the first level. This winner Those who do not include the disciples who have been recommended to advance as we just mentioned. They will conduct a one-on-one competition to determine the top ten. These ten disciples will receive special rewards. Then these ten disciples will pass the third level. The third level is the challenge level, where these ten disciples can challenge one of the disciples from the previous level at will. If they win or tie, they will get a higher level."

This time, Zhang Xiaohua understood that she had just passed the first level.

He asked curiously: "Leader Chang, I just came to Huanxi Villa to participate in the martial arts competition. It does not involve the advancement of your Piao Miao Sect disciples. Will I also participate in the next two levels of competition?"

Leader Chang nodded and said: "Since you participated in our group's competition, I checked the previous records. Although no outsiders have participated in the martial arts competition in the past few decades, there were still many people participating in the martial arts competition a hundred years ago. Few outsiders actively participated, and many people entered the second and third levels. However, one thing I have read is that most of these advanced outsiders are well-known in the world. People, after joining the Lotus Escort Bureau, those who participated in this martial arts competition, their martial arts skills are quite high, and their results, to be honest, are much better than yours."

Zhang Xiaohua nodded, not denying her achievements, and said, "That means I have to participate in tomorrow's competition?"

Leader Chang smiled and said: "Of course, why should I remind you? However, according to your results, it's okay not to participate. In the next two levels of competition, one is limited to three sticks of incense, and the other is There is no time limit. You may not be able to take advantage of this competition method. Anyway, if you can pass the first level, it is already good. I suggest that you don’t need to pass the next two levels. By the way, with you The two disciples from the Lotus Escort Agency who came to participate in the martial arts competition together withdrew from the competition yesterday."

In fact, Zhang Xiaohua didn't know that there would be a competition tomorrow, and she had no plans to compete with these children for any quota. However, she just got the Pharmacy Hall token from He Tianshu this morning. If there is no competition tomorrow, it is estimated that tonight I want to return it to others. Thinking about the vitality of heaven and earth in the Pharmacy Hall, Zhang Xiaohua is a little reluctant to give up. Moreover, this is also the case with Team Leader Chang. Just don’t tell me that there will be a competition tomorrow. You told me first and then advised me not to participate. , isn't it because I always draw? Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaohua was a little unhappy and asked: "Then, if I participate, if I get into the top ten, will I have to occupy another spot in your Young Eagle Hall? ?”

Team leader Chang liked Zhang Xiaohua's asking such lofty questions, which could test his knowledge, so he said: "No, the records in the gang are very clear. If you can enter the top ten, you will be given alone." If you have a quota, our Young Eagle Hall disciples will still choose ten disciples."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua said resolutely: "Then I will come to participate tomorrow."

"Oh?" 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 still compete with the second-level disciples of Buyi. I won't suffer any loss, so why not come?"

Leader Chang saw that Zhang Xiaohua had made up his mind and stopped trying to persuade him. He told him that he could just come to Young Eagle Hall as usual tomorrow, and Zhang Xiaohua took his leave.

After leaving the Young Eagle Hall, Zhang Xiaohua's first thought was to go to the Pharmacy Hall, but when she thought about it carefully, her second brother was still in the Piaomiao Sect. She had no reason to go elsewhere first, so she had to go back to Zhang Xiaohu's along the original road. residence.

The door of Zhang Xiaohu's small courtyard was still closed. Zhang Xiaohua walked to the door, patted the door, but found no movement, and shouted impatiently: "Second brother, it's me."

Sure enough, the door opened in response. Zhang Xiaohua walked in and said unhappily: "Second brother, what about you? The door is closed every day. If they keep coming to flatter you, will you keep the door closed for the rest of your life?" ?”

At this time, Zhang Xiaohu's face was covered with sweat. He wiped it slightly and said: "Oh, I don't know. Let's close the door first. My martial arts at this time is too poor. I can't hold my head up in front of others. There is really nothing good about it." This is the only way."

Only then did Zhang Xiaohua notice that her second brother was sweating profusely and asked in surprise: "Second brother, why are you sweating so much? What are you doing?"

"What for?" Zhang Xiaohu smiled bitterly, walked to the open space in the small courtyard, and practiced his handy Liuhe Boxing technique one by one.

Zhang Xiaohua did not dare to disturb him, so she sat on the small stone bench and watched quietly. However, after watching for a long time, Zhang Xiaohu beat him over and over again without stopping, and the sweat flowed down like syrup.

Zhang Xiaohua felt something was wrong, so she shouted: "Second brother, second brother, stop and take a rest."

But Zhang Xiaohu turned a deaf ear.

Zhang Xiaohua looked at it and became anxious. She jumped up from the small stone bench and jumped within the range of Zhang Xiaohu's moves. She blocked Zhang Xiaohu's fist with her left hand and struck Zhang Xiaohu's side with the Fist of the North Star with her right hand. When Zhang Xiaohu saw his younger brother's fist coming closer, he didn't reply and raised his fist to meet it. Zhang Xiaohua did not shy away from the harsh blow. He felt that the second brother's fist was very heavy. It seemed that he was really going to use all his strength. Zhang Xiaohua Although he was afraid, his hands were a little heavier, so the two of them fought together.

It took him two more sticks of incense to hit, but Zhang Xiaohua didn't feel that it was very strenuous. After all, his arms were very strong now, and he could still punch without using any internal force. However, Zhang Xiaohu was not like that. He had it before. Internal strength is the foundation, and now the low-level internal strength and mental skills have been completely abandoned. Now I rely solely on physical strength to fight Zhang Xiaohua. Who is Zhang Xiaohua's opponent? If Zhang Xiaohua hadn't deliberately given in, 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 looked tired, Zhang Xiaohua did not dare to fight any more. He used a flaw and exposed a gap under his armpit, just in time to meet Zhang Xiaohu's fist. , with a "Peng" sound, Zhang Xiaohua fell out and shouted: "Ouch!"

This scream of pain fell in Zhang Xiaohu's ears. He immediately stopped his moves, ran to Zhang Xiaohua, carefully lifted him up, and asked anxiously: "The injury is under the armpit, how is it? Does it hurt?" ?”

Seeing her second brother's anxious look, Zhang Xiaohua secretly laughed in her heart, but she didn't dare to reveal her flaws. She just frowned and said, "Second brother, I kindly accompany you to feed you. Why are you so cruel? I'm your relative." Brother, you are so good at martial arts that you wouldn’t bully me like this, oh, it hurts so much.”

Zhang Xiaohu quickly said with a smile: "Xiao Hua, it's all my fault. I'm in a bad mood today. I accidentally happened. Take a deep breath and see if you feel tight in your chest. If not, let's go to the pharmacy as soon as possible." 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, there seems to be nothing uncomfortable in my chest. It's just that the place you hit is sore. Hey, second brother, how do you feel?" What’s bad? You’re going to be cruel to your brother. By the way, you sweaty guy, have you been practicing boxing since you came back in the morning?”

Zhang Xiaohu thought for a while and nodded silently.

Zhang Xiaohua touched her armpit and said, "Second brother, help me over. Let's sit on the stone bench and talk."

Zhang Xiaohua looked injured, so Zhang Xiaohu had to carefully help him to the stone bench.

After sitting down, Zhang Xiaohua said again: "Second brother, I have been competing for a day, can you give me some water?"

Zhang Xiaohu listened and silently took the cup and tea from the room. Zhang Xiaohua took it, poured out two cups of tea, handed it to Zhang Xiaohu, and said, "Second brother, you should drink some too."

Zhang Xiaohu looked at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "You can drink too."

After Zhang Xiaohua picked up the cup, Zhang Xiaohu started to drink.

Both of them drank the water and put down the cups. Zhang Xiaohua asked again: "Second brother, what's going on? You are asked to practice boxing non-stop as soon as you come back?"

Zhang Xiaohu looked up at the sky, as if thinking about something, then poured another cup of tea, and said while drinking: "Actually, Xiaohua, it's nothing, but, alas, I just feel useless, look at you, You didn’t become a disciple, and you couldn’t learn all the boxing skills, but you still persevered in practicing martial arts, pieced together those incomplete boxing moves, and actually practiced successfully. Moreover, look at your current level of martial arts, you can’t even compete with Miao Miao Sect. None of my disciples are any match for me, they are much stronger than me, and I, I feel very useless."
