Chapter 78: Escort Competition (2)
Yin Bin thought for a while and said, "He didn't know how to go out before the escort. Uncle Xue probably wouldn't teach him the Dharma sword technique on the way out. However... he seemed to say during dinner last night that the senior of the Iron Blood Changhemen not only taught him boxing skills, but also improved his sword technique."
"What's the surname of that senior Iron Blood Changhemen?" Wang Jingwu asked curiously.
"Secret..." Yin Bin scratched his head: "I drank too much wine yesterday and couldn't remember it."
"It seems that the surname is Geng, and he lives in... in Longmen Town." Wang Xuan answered.
"So it's this senior!" Wang Jingwu suddenly realized.
"Uncle Wang knows me?"
"Geng Po, known as the Blood Cook, was once the logistics manager of the army led by Ye Daxia. It is said that he was once a disciple of the Luoyang Kuaidao Sect. Later, he was carefully trained by Ye Daxia. His sword skills were rarely rivals, and countless barbarians died under his sword." Wang Jingwu sighed: "When I was young, I wanted to go to Longmen Town to ask for advice from him, but later I heard that many people from the martial arts world who asked for advice were beaten badly by him. It often took several months to improve, so I didn't dare to go. As a result, I haven't been able to see this old senior yet. It's a pity!"
"Uncle Wang doesn't have to regret it. Since A Chang is very familiar with Senior Geng, if he recommends him in the future, it should be no problem for you to see Senior Geng." Yin Bin said, seeing that Yu Dongge had already walked into the venue, the worry on his face was much less: "It seems that A Chang should be no problem for Yu Dongge."
"It should be." Wang Jingwu was a little moved after hearing Yin Bin's words. He thought that when today's competition ended, he asked Yin Bin to help him mention this matter to Xue Chang.
During the scene, Xue Chang bowed and bowed: "I have long admired the name of the escort master, please give me advice!"
Yu Dongge, who had a serious face, did not return the gift. He glanced at the wooden knife in Xue Chang's hand and said in a deep voice: "Please take the call." After that, the wooden knife in his hand stabbed straight towards him like lightning.
Xue Chang seemed not to have expected the other party to make a sudden move and did not react immediately. Seeing the narrow and curved wooden waist knife about to stab him, Yin Bin and Wang Xuan couldn't help but scream.
At this time, Xue Chang quickly lifted the wooden knife in his hand, blocked the tip of the other party's knife with the wide back of the knife. Then he flipped the wooden knife, pressed the other party's blade body, and cut it horizontally.
Yu Dongge made an iron bridge and bent his waist backwards to avoid Xue Chang's wooden knife. When he got up again, the two sides happened to exchange positions.
Yu Dongge looked directly at Xue Chang, his eyes burned, and he shouted: "Come again!"
He jumped up and slashed hard.
Xue Chang held a knife to block it horizontally.
When the knife was about to collide, Yu Dongge suddenly changed the lower slash to a straight stab. The weight of his entire body was added to the wooden knife, making the forward slash more quickly and headed straight for Xue Chang's head.
This change of move was indeed beyond Xue Chang's expectations. In the critical moment, Xue Chang's body leaned forward quickly and flew out on the ground. It was the light skill of the leaves falling and the warblers flying.
Yu Dongge pointed the tip of his sword and came to the ground with his strength.
Xue Chang slashed sideways.
Unexpectedly, Yu Dongge's thrust turned into a thrust.
Xue Chang used old moves, so he had to use the leaves falling and flying leaves again, rolling over the other person's head.
Yu Dongge used the power of horizontal cutting to drive his body to turn around quickly, and another straight stab was made.
...
Back then, Zhou Kenan, the founder of the Tiandao Sect, was gifted and talented. At a young age, his sword technique was already invincible in Bashu, but he was still not satisfied. As a native of northern Sichuan, he loved the magnificence of the Shu Road and the mountains and rivers. He often lamented that "the Shu Road that dozens of miles and a line of sky is caused by the great power of heaven and cannot be done by manpower." So he built a hut on the mountain peak next to the Shu Road, experiencing the mountain trend day and night, and figured out the sword technique. Later, he realized the method of the Heavenly Sword and created the Tiandao Sect. The Heavenly Sword technique emphasizes strangeness, weirdness, heroism, and danger. The sword is used as a sword envoy, and the sword turns into a knife to chop is one of the major characteristics.
Now, Yu Dongge's sword technique has performed this very well, and Xue Chang's Shaolin sword technique itself has great flaws. Although he has made considerable improvements with Geng Po's help, he obviously cannot match the Tiandao. After more than ten moves, he fell into a passive state and often hesitated to determine whether the opponent's move was stabbed or chopped, resulting in slow moves.
"Oh!" Amid Yin Bin and Wang Xuan's screams, Xue Chang hurriedly made the leaves fall and the warblers fly, and once again thrillingly avoided the wooden knife that Yu Dongge waved, but a piece of her clothes was cut off.
After the beard flies, Ye Piao then goes away from his opponent. Xue Chang just lands. He glances at the fragments of clothes not far away, and his heart sank: Yu Dongge's sword technique is weird and changeable, and it is really hard to defeat. Is it going to lose this game?
Xue Chang wouldn't care about paying a few taels of extra money, but he just felt that he should be able to deal with it. He was always a little unwilling to do so, mainly because he was competitive.
He didn't dare to think too much, looked forward intently, and saw Yu Dongge running towards him with a knife, and was about to step forward to meet the enemy, but his heart suddenly moved: Yu Dongge's attack was sharp and fast before, which made him almost breathless. Even though he used Ye Luoying Fei many times, the opponent was chasing him closely. It can be seen that his light skills are good, but when he had the advantage just now and almost injured himself, he actually started walking. Could it be...
Xue Chang changed his mind: If we look at the ability that Yu Dongge showed just now, he should at least be on par with Wang Jingwu and is the top escort in the Shujiang Escort Agency, but the fact is not the case. What is the reason?..."
When Xue Chang was thinking, the wooden knife had arrived. In order to verify what he was thinking, he did not fight with the other party, but instead jumped behind him, and used leaves to fall and warblers to fly away, to distance the two sides, and to carefully observe the other party's actions.
Sure enough, after slashing the sky with a knife, Yu Dongge did not immediately chase after him, but instead paused for a moment.
Although he didn't dare to be completely sure, he had a little bit of confidence in his heart. Xue Chang roared, circulated the true energy in his body, and quickly walked forward. Before Yu Dongge could make a move, he directly swept his knife horizontally, and the thick-backed wooden knife mixed with the sound of the wind, swept towards the other party.
Yu Dongge did not take the initiative, jumped up and stabbed the wooden knife.
When Xue Chang swung his sword, he deliberately left three-pointers and directly turned the horizontal cut into an upper cut.
Yu Dongge quickly changed the stab to a lower chop.
Xue Chang's whole body did not move in place, but just shook his wrist, raised his blade, held the knife in both hands and lifted it to his head.
Yu Dongge's body was falling and he could no longer change his moves. He only heard a dull sound of "bang" and the two swords collided.
Xue Chang was still in the same place, and Yu Dongge had already flew backwards.
It worked!... Xue Chang was very calm in his heart, took two steps forward, and took advantage of the opportunity to make an ordinary horizontal cut.
Yes, Xue Chang has changed his battle strategy and no longer uses Shaolin sword technique.
During the time when Xue Chang was practicing sword skills with Geng Po at the Jinya Restaurant, Geng Po most often used not the Kuangsha Quick Sword that he relied on to become famous in the early days, but the eight heavy sword techniques. No matter how Xue Chang used various killer moves around him, he always used the simplest blocking, chopping, chopping, cutting, cutting, picking, etc., and used the basic moves in the knife technique to easily block Xue Chang's attack and counterattack back.
Although Geng Po did not teach Xue Chang the Eight Methods of Heavy Knife to Xue Chang, Xue Chang still learned some in his constant practice and systematic practical training. Although he did not have the mental method of Heavy Knife, nor did he have the strong internal strength and the use of the sword as freely as his hands, under the special circumstances in this world, he could achieve miraculous effects by using similar fighting methods like the eight methods of Heavy Knife.
Xue Chang used the most basic sword moves to make it easier to see the opponent's sword moves clearly; he started to retain his strength when he used the sword, so that he could change his moves faster; he no longer made leaps, but just moved forward step by step, so that he could accumulate strength onto the wooden sword faster.
So after Xue Chang changed his playing style, the sound of "bang!bang!bang!" kept ringing on the field, and every time the knife and the knife touched, it affected Yu Dongge's speed of his knife production.
"Bang!" Another muffled sound, Yu Dongge could no longer resist the force coming from the opponent's wooden knife. The wooden knife flew away from his sour right hand. He had a gloomy face and turned around and ended.
"What a pity!" Wang Jingwu, who was watching the game on the sidelines, sighed: "There are many martial arts people in Bashu who know the sword skills of the Tiandao Sect, but not many people who can switch and stab and slash so freely like Xiao Yu. However, the internal strength consumes a lot of internal strength. Xiao Yu is not strong and cannot fight for a long time. If he can have good internal strength, or even the real internal strength of the Tiandao Sect, then the future is really unlimited! Alas, it is too difficult for a jianghu like us to be able to continuously improve his martial arts in an all-round way!"
Yin Bin could not understand Wang Jingwu's sigh, and was just thinking in his heart: If you have strong internal skills, how could you stay in our escort bureau for a long time?
At this moment, Xue Chang on the court did not shout the words "I'll invite the next one" again, because this fierce battle really consumed a lot of his physical strength and internal strength. He had to come out to rest for a while before he could continue to fight again.
When he was over, Xue Chang was full of joy because of the system's prompts: through hard battles, he discovered the opponent's weaknesses, changed his tactics in time, defeated an inmate with strong strength, and obtained 80 prestige points.
……………………………………………………………………………………
Since Xue Chang still has something to do, the day's martial arts training ended before dusk. What made him feel the most tired was not the fight with the bodyguards, but the conversation with Yin Dezai while having dinner at Yin Bin's house at noon.
The friend's father mentioned indirectly that Shangguan Yi, who defeated Yang Lei at the Jincheng Escort Agency yesterday. If you want to know his origin and his relationship with Xue Chang, Xue Chang could only respond to the words of several friends before; and then said, "Xue Chang and Yin Bin are friends who grew up together. This kind of friendship is very rare. You should continue to help each other and support each other..." You must know that in the past, he, like Xue Chang's father, often pulled Yin Bin out to fool around, and had no good face...
Fortunately, Yin Bin was making jokes, and this so-called family dinner that made Xue Chang uncomfortable finally endured it.
However, this dissonant episode did not affect Xue Chang's happy mood. Although today's battle made him pay more than 30 taels of silver, he gained 380 prestige points, which made him worth 565 points in the system. He can already buy powerful martial arts secrets in the system mall.
However, in today's nine games, he also lost one. The martial arts of Liu's stint is comparable to that of Wang Jingwu. He is good at using swords. It is said that when he was young, he was appreciated by an old Taoist in the world of games and passed on his unique skills. After hard battles, Xue Chang still couldn't turn the decline and was defeated.
It can also be seen that the martial arts skills of the escort masters are uneven. Some are good at it, but some are not good at it. Most of them are not disciples of the sect. Either they have no choice but to practice some ordinary martial arts that are easy to obtain in the world, such as Yizi Chuan, Hu Family Fist, Zhongping Jian, Tiandao..., and stand out with perseverance and talent; or some people are lucky enough to be personally taught by people from the sects, just like Xu Xi, Fan Yu and others. These martial arts people are unwilling to live in a place without a fixed place to wander around the world, so they choose to join the escort agency because the court has special policies on the escort agency and look forward to a future where they will make a name for themselves.
After Xue Chang and Yin Bin and Wang Xuan discussed tomorrow's competition and training plan, they politely declined their request to go to the restaurant to arrange a dinner and returned home alone.
The first thing to do when you get home is to check the learning status of your apprentices.
Under Xue Chang's serious look, Xue Yuting stammered and finished the performance of the other people. In summary, it was just two sentences: Everyone has a very positive attitude and is very serious in studying.
It seems that it is effective to let the little girl practice martial arts, at least she did not lower her head and whisper... While being satisfied with Xue Yuting's performance, Xue Chang did not believe her words: "You can do all the words Xue Yuting taught today?"
"Yes, Master, I basically know it." This is Fan Ya's confident answer.
"There are still some words that I haven't remembered." This is Xu Xi's answer.
"Can... know some..." This is Xue Wu's answer.
"Xiao Di, where are you?" Xue Chang turned his head and asked Hu Qiudi, who was gloating aside.
"Master, I want to learn too?"
"Of course, although I ask you to help your junior sister, you also need to learn words that you don't know."
"Master, I understand everything, I know everything."
"Well..." Xue Chang looked at the apprentices with different expressions and said slowly: "Since you have all learned and written the words Xue Yuting taught you seriously, I'll give you a small test to see how you learned."
"Test?!" Everyone was shocked.
Xue Chang pretended not to see him: "Little sister, I'll give everyone paper, pen and ink."
"Ah... OK... Xue Yuting is a little panicked.
"Now I announce the start, little sister, you will read out the 60 words you teach today one by one. If you read one, you will write one. If you don't know how to use a brush, I allow you to dip your fingers ink." Xue Chang said with a serious expression: "But, during the test, no one is allowed to peek around, let alone talk to each other, otherwise I will never let you go! Do you understand?!"
The disciples quickly said, "I understand, Master."
Xue Chang looked at Xue Yuting: "Then let's start."
Chapter completed!
