After hanging up the laundry, Lou Cheng locked the door, went back to his room, lay on the bedside, his thoughts were fluctuating, he couldn't calm down for a long time, and he had the urge to tell.
He took out his mobile phone and sent Yan Zheke a message:
"After eating barbecue today, something happened..."
He described his relationship with Wang Xu, his thoughts when he witnessed him being chased, and the change of mood after having a deep chat with him, all in a normal tone.
Yan Zheke cooperated with asking questions from time to time, didn't say much, and did not say seriously until the end of the speech: "Chengzi, I think, it's still the old saying, everyone has their own future, not necessarily studying, not necessarily martial arts... say At this point, I remembered that I told you this before, and then you will be able to defeat the ninth rank of the professional class in four months... It's over, I have no face in front of you!"
She immediately made an emoji crouching in a corner and drawing circles.
Lou Cheng's gloomy mood was diluted a little, and he couldn't help laughing and said: "Actually, I felt that what you said was quite reasonable at that time, and I never thought that I would be able to approach the professional level so quickly."
"Don't interrupt, do you still want to listen to me?" Yan Zheke said with a fierce expression.
You were the one who interrupted... Of course, Lou Cheng didn't dare to answer like that, and said with a "simple smile", "Teacher Yan, please tell me!"
"Everyone has their own destiny. We are not gods, immortals, or gods. It is already remarkable to be able to change the few who are most closely related. As for the others, 'do your best and obey the destiny'. I can't make decisions for them, and I can't forcibly reverse their will." Yan Zheke didn't show any expression when she said this.
Lou Cheng breathed out, and pressed the keyboard: "I understand this truth, but I always feel powerless and depressed. The friend who was once such a good friend is now in a completely different world, and I can't do anything but watch. .”
"Chengzi, the vast majority of people are selfish, and so am I. I draw a circle with myself as the center, and the innermost ones are my parents, who are immediate family members who have a good relationship. They must be more important than the girlfriends and good friends who are slightly outside , and friends are also divided into two categories, one can be friends for a lifetime, and the other can only accompany you through a certain stage of life, just like two non-parallel lines, they have intersected at a certain point, but because of the concept, Because of choice, because of personality, because of different encounters, sooner or later they will drift away, meeting is worse than missing, Wang Xu should be classified in this category for you." Yan Zheke typed a lot of words.
It was the first time for Lou Cheng to see her seriously explaining her three views like this, and the impression of her in his mind seemed to be a little more vivid.
"Then where is your future spouse?" He subconsciously asked this question.
Yan Zheke sent a squinting expression: "I won't tell you~ Are you listening carefully! Throwing the table!"
"Yes, yes, coach Yan, continue!" Lou Cheng replied with a smile.
After some gags, he felt that his mood seemed to have recovered a lot.
"Friends who can make good friends for a lifetime must have a certain fit with themselves, but Wang Xu is obviously not. Are you willing to give up your studies for him and go to the underworld to fight your life? You are willing to cause a lot of trouble for him, and even affect your own life. Family?" Yan Zheke asked back.
Lou Cheng thought about it seriously and said, "I don't want him to affect my current life."
Yan Zheke used an expression of nodding frequently:
"So, as you said yourself, you are already in completely different worlds. If he doesn't look back, the gap will only widen. Sooner or later, there will only be memories left. To put it coldly, he is just a part of your life For an episode, it is enough that you have helped him wholeheartedly within your ability, regrets are inevitable.”
"My grandfather and grandma taught many disciples, some entered the police force, some joined the army, some worked hard in the professional martial arts circle, some got mixed up in the business world, and some also went astray. Such people There are even quite a few of them. Heroes use martial arts to violate the ban. My grandfather and grandmother used to be saddened by this, could not sleep because of it, and were furious because of it. Later, they finally figured it out and tried their best to stop them and save them. Enough is enough, no need to worry about it."
"It's hard to be perfect in life, just want to be ashamed of your heart."
Lou Cheng watched quietly, lost in thought, took a deep breath after a while and said, "I understand, it's good to be ashamed of my heart, I'm a freshman student, if I can save his life when I meet him, I can be sincere Persuading him to withdraw has already done his best, so don't worry about it anymore."
"That's right, a child can be taught." Yan Zheke sent a proud expression of pushing her glasses, "Actually, you handled things quite well today. You saved people and didn't get in trouble. I used to fantasize that I would become a chivalrous man after being advanced in martial arts. Righteousness, I yelled at the injustice on the road, but I was also worried about whether this would violate the ban with martial arts, and whether there would be a lot of follow-up troubles, what you did today satisfied all my fantasies about this kind of thing."
Lou Cheng was suddenly a little proud and happy, and said with a smirk, "It's all about Coach Yan, you teach well, 'Yan' teaches by example, and 'Yan' teachers make outstanding disciples!"
"Pfft! You're getting better at using words!" Yan Zheke replied with a dumbfounded expression.
After such narration and teasing, Lou Cheng's mood completely recovered, and he even put on his signature smirk, and chatted until after ten o'clock before reluctantly going to brush his teeth and take a bath, and prepare to go to bed on time.
After he finished all this, he lay down on the bed and found that Cai Zongming had finally returned home, logged on to QQ, saw the message, and responded.
"Secret? You're not a girl. I'm not interested in your secrets, unless it's black history." Classmate Xiao Ming said with a mean expression wagging his fingers.
Lou Cheng first went back to Yan Zheke, and then he didn't care whether Cai Zongming was interested or not, and said to himself: "This time I took a detour to Yanling on the way home, and participated in a small martial arts competition called 'Phoenix Cup'. Holy ring competition, guess what result I got?"
"Damn it, you've run quite far. As for the results, you still have to guess? You already mentioned the full name of the race, so I can easily find it? Are you stupid?" the other end of the network , Cai Zongming sat in front of the computer desk, typing with both hands, habitually hurting Lou Cheng.
Lou Cheng let out a hey, and muttered to himself, this effect is what he wants! I still don't know you Cai Xiaoming
The results I took the initiative to say are definitely not as shocking as the ones you searched yourself!
Cai Zongming opened the browser, found the official website, clicked on it, and read the news directly:
"In the final, Jiang Lan vs. Wang Ye? Professional grade 8 vs. professional grade 9?"
"The third and fourth finals, Huang Zhenzhong vs. Bai Song? It's also a contest between professional eighth rank and professional ninth rank..."
Cai Zongming twitched the corner of his mouth while watching, and immediately sent a message to Lou Cheng:
"Damn it, I was deceived by you in my wise life. With the level of this competition, your name must have been buried among the masses of the people. Where can I find it!"
"Haha, look down!" Lou Cheng didn't say much, expecting Xiao Ming to find out by himself.
Cai Zongming looked at the screen in doubt, swiped the mouse, and suddenly found a piece of news:
"'No. 656' player Lou Cheng withdrew from the quarter-finals due to his exhausted body and the inability to persevere."
"Final match?" He clicked in, suspecting that they had the same name and surname.
"Pinless rank...Pine students...defeating professional rank nine..." After a while, he silently read out the key words, then picked up his phone without hesitation, and called Lou Cheng.
"Chengzi, you wouldn't ask someone to create a fake website, would you?" Cai Zongming blurted out as soon as the call was connected.
Lou Cheng smiled triumphantly: "I'll go, you're not Yan Zheke, did I make a fake website just to deceive you? Does your IQ need to be so high-end?"
"But you only defeated Wu Dao Club's senior brother Wu by running. It seems that it hasn't been long... You have gone from amateur ninth rank to professional ninth rank?" Cai Zongming couldn't hide his surprise.
Lou Cheng tried his best to keep his tone calm: "Not long? It's been three months! I've learned Blizzard's twenty-four strokes, improved my strength, speed, and body coordination, and gained a wealth of sparring experience." , I also watched a lot of Budo club competitions, and the opponents in this arena were relatively weak at the beginning. I fought one by one, and gradually mastered Blizzard's twenty-four strikes, and also mastered the listening power and the center of gravity. With a bit of luck, I finally broke into the quarterfinals."
Cai Zongming was silent for a while before he said: "...Cheng Zi, why do I think you are showing off?"
"That's right, I'm just showing off!" Lou Cheng couldn't help laughing, "Hit me if you have the ability? Hit me? Can you beat me?"
"Damn it..." Cai Zongming was annoyed and funny, "I've never seen such a cheap person like you! Just wait, I will join the special training of the Martial Arts Club next semester. With my talent and the teaching of old man Shi, I will be able to do it every minute." Catch up with you and see how you feel when the time comes!"
Lou Cheng was satisfied and ready to go to bed, before hanging up the phone, he said:
"The website has my game video, please worship it!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Cai Zongming to answer, he directly hung up the phone and went to say good night to Yan Zheke.
After the few days of the group arena, Yan Zheke knew that he got up at 5:30 every day to exercise, and she admired him deeply, and also recognized his improvement in strength a lot.
Cai Zongming took his mobile phone and was stunned for a moment, then found the game video, clicked on it and started watching it.
Watching and watching, he opened his mouth little by little, but did not close it. After each video was played, he murmured to himself dreamily:
"Is this fucking an orange?"
"I feel like I can hit me several times..."
"You won't be taken away by some old devil, right?"
Of course, such things as seizing homes do not exist in reality, only in reality.
...
At 5:30 the next day, Lou Cheng got up on time, put on his martial arts uniform, took his mobile phone and keys, and went out for a jog to the neighborhood where Jiang Fei's home was located, doing preliminary warm-ups.
At this time, the sky was dark, with no morning light, and the street lights on both sides were dim, illuminating the quietness of no one, and bringing out more desolation.
Exhaling into mist, Lou Cheng breathed evenly, arrived outside Jiang Fei's house in the icy cold, and flashed him a call to make sure he was up.
After finishing the set of moving piles on the spot, that is, the practice routine, Lou Cheng saw Jiang Fei shivering out of the community, his white martial arts uniform stretched out into strange shapes by his fat body.
He suppressed a smile and said, "Let's run to warm up first."
"Okay!" After what happened yesterday, Jiang Fei was quite looking forward to and excited about practicing martial arts, "Chengzi, where are we going?"
Lou Cheng planned the process long ago, pointed to the left: "Run to Sanli Pavilion, and exercise in People's Park."
"Sanliting? People's Park?" Jiang Fei opened his mouth wide open, his face turned pale, "You'd better kill me!"
This TM is at least ten kilometers!
