Master Ma did not directly accept the challenge, but brought a cup of tea with a calm expression and a strange accent:
"Young man, martial arts must pay attention to martial ethics and respect the seniors. As a veteran of the world, I will not bully the small and take action against you."
"Bah! If you don't dare to take action, you just don't dare to take action! Those useless things!"
Dongfang Xiaoyu hates this kind of person. Even though she is timid, she insists on giving a bunch of reasons and puts on a posture of saying I disdain to fight you.
Fortunately, Pei Mengqing still helped her.
"Master Ma must be afraid, right? Could it be that everything just now was staged by Master Ma and his apprentices?"
However, they obviously still underestimated Master Ma's face.
Hearing this provocation, Master Ma just cursed the hired agent in his heart, but at this time he actually became silent.
Little did he know that Pei Mengqing had her mouth covered with "qi" and couldn't make a sound no matter how she shouted.
This is what Pei Mengqing thought of when solving the evil spirit on Lianggu Road. It is the malleability of Qi.
Whether it is impact or sound, it is essentially a kind of energy. As long as the energy is wrapped and isolated with Qi, the effect of physical silence can be achieved.
"He who doesn't know has no fear. Junior, please go home quickly. How can you challenge my master?"
The disciple who was knocked to the ground secretly got up, wiped the embarrassment from his face, and shouted arrogantly again.
It's okay not to show off, after all, they themselves know that the so-called "teacher" is just one of the many decorations launched by the All-Martial Alliance.
The All-Martial Arts League is a loose organization spanning the northern states, a bit like the Wulin League in martial arts novels.
In recent years, due to the increasingly frequent actions of various evil organizations, the economic situation of the entire Zhou Dynasty is not optimistic. Even the housing prices in Luoyang and Chang'an are falling, and the population is also declining due to natural and man-made disasters.
The Wulin Alliance had no choice but to think of a chain martial arts gym model, and began to recruit some entry-level and spiritual-level "outer disciples" from various sects, and then train a group of "masters" to become the disciples' teachers.
After a fixed pattern of training, the teachers each took some funds and disciples and went to various counties to open martial arts schools and recruit disciples.
The world situation is not optimistic. Being able to learn martial arts is also a way out for ordinary people. If you can attract children from wealthy business families, you can open a "Master Special Training Class" to make more money.
What's more, with the current population reduction, many houses in counties have gradually become ownerless houses, which are either gradually abandoned or occupied by homeless people. The price of housing construction continues to fall.
As long as you pay a small price, you can rent a large piece of land to build a martial arts gym in the martial arts alliance.
In fact, it is no problem for these entry-level and spirit-building-level disciples to teach ordinary people how to get started, but the so-called "Master Special Training Class" is purely a lie to fools.
Even with their own level, they can't survive in an area where evil spirits are causing chaos and teach others, haha...
"Shut up when you lose!" Dongfang Xiaoyu scolded with raised eyebrows.
With the help of Pei Mengqing's "Pao Bu", the eldest disciple actually shut up.
Physical silence!
"It turns out that Master Ma is not as powerful as his disciples. Everything before was just a show. It's so disappointing!"
"Zilima! Refund the money!"
After Pei Mengqing's humiliation, even the onlookers couldn't stand it any longer. They either started to cheer for Master Ma to challenge, or they turned around and left.
He didn't even dare to respond to the provocation of a girl, and his disciples continued to act like cowards even after being provoked by one person.
What can you learn from more martial arts schools like this? Learn the Turtle Breathing Technique?
The matter had no way to end, and Master Ma couldn't get off the tiger, so he reluctantly put down the tea cup and kept mumbling, saying things like "old man in the martial arts world", "speak of martial ethics", and "five consecutive whips".
He also laid down a bunch of battle rules, tried his best to make up for himself and gain the upper hand, and then he dared to stand in front of Dongfang Xiaoyu.
"start!"
The battle begins.
Dongfang Xiaoyu punched.
Master Ma’s eyes were swollen.
Master Ma fainted and fell to the ground!
The battle ended quickly with a comically quick result, and the surrounding crowd was completely disappointed and dispersed.
Only this martial arts gym, which was facing bankruptcy just after opening, was left here, and the "disciples" quickly took out the medicine to treat the "master".
"Hmph! You are cheating and cheating ordinary people. You really have no conscience at all! Let's go!"
Dongfang Xiaoyu flicked her ponytail and led Pei Mengqing out of the Xingyi Martial Arts Hall handsomely.
"The heroine is handsome." Pei Mengqing was half teasing and half admiring.
After leaving the martial arts hall, her anger gradually subsided, and Dongfang Xiaoyu also calmed down:
"No matter what, if you take action, it will be easier than me to kill the enemy."
"There are fewer and fewer righteous people nowadays. People have too much time to take care of themselves. How can they still have the energy and ability to uphold justice."
Pei Mengqing shook her head. It’s true that heroes emerge from troubled times, but bullshit and cheaters also emerge from troubled times.
If it weren't for the cheaters running around causing trouble, the heroes wouldn't have a chance to save the world.
After leaving the martial arts hall, there was a stall in front that was serving porridge for free.
Most of the people who had been watching next to the martial arts gym came over and lined up honestly under the supervision of the organizers to maintain order.
"It's not that there are no righteous people. Look, aren't there good people?"
"Heh, I hope so."
It wasn't that Pei Mengqing looked at everyone as a bad person, but that everyone felt that the other party had a conspiracy. The main reason was that the sign next to the porridge stall read "Ernst & Young Pawn Shop".
What does Ernst & Young Pawn Shop mean? How can the Dark Night Chaos behind it be a public welfare organization that does not do bad things but instead gives charity to the common people?
[Triggered by phased tasks: Change the evil and return to the right? ? ? 】
[Under the instruction of the Dark Night Chaos behind it, Ernst and Young Pawnshop took advantage of the rising food prices in the city and the poverty and hunger of the people to purchase a large amount of food for soup. Under this appearance, there may be a conspiracy hidden. Please investigate it clearly. 】
[Task reward: 10 points]
Pei Mengqing wrapped the words in a "bubble" and conveyed them to Xiaori and Tachibana who were sneaking in the dark.
He and Dongfang Xiaoyu approached the team. When they saw someone coming out with a bowl of porridge, they quickly stepped forward to say hello.
"Brother, please stay!"
Pei Mengqing's voice was not loud enough for the middle-aged man to hear.
The man turned around and looked at the two of them cautiously. After seeing the neat clothes of Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu, he relaxed a little.
The two of them looked like children from a wealthy family, and they didn't dress like they worked regularly. They probably didn't have any evil intentions towards him.
"What's wrong, you two?"
Dongfang Xiaoyu looked at Pei Mengqing, feeling equally confused.
"It's like this. My brother and sister traveled all night to return to Liangzhou County and are really hungry. I want to take the liberty of buying this bowl of porridge from you."
Seeing the middle-aged man take half a step back and his eyes becoming alert again, Pei Mengqing quickly added:
"I'm not lying, I'm really so hungry that I can't walk anymore. I'm afraid I'll faint from hunger after waiting in such a long line. This is fifty dollars."
Pei Mengqing took out fifty copper coins and showed them to the middle-aged man.
Although food prices are soaring now, fifty yuan is far more than this thin and watery "porridge". It's not a problem to go to a breakfast shop and buy seven or eight vegetable buns.
