Early in the morning, Gu Jianqiu went out before six o'clock as usual, and came to Wuguan Street carrying his gauntlet.
Today is May 20th, and almost a month has passed since Gu Jianqiu woke up from that long doomsday dream.
Fifteen wins and two losses, this was the result of his closed-door discussions with the coaches at Wuguan Street during this period.
The first defeat came on the fifth day after Gu Jianqiu defeated Hong Sheng's Master Liu Tong. Gu Jianqiu, who had a splitting headache from reading Ghost Rules, once again tried to kick the gym and chose a state-run ancient military training center.
At that time, Gu Jianqiu's ECG was only nine points, while the other party was a martial arts instructor who had been immersed in Liuhe Spearmanship for many years. He had 25 standard ECGs and was going to take the formal Level 1 Heavenly Official Examination in the second half of the year.
The opponent was not as polite as Liu Tong, and his attacks were ruthless and deadly. A two-meter-long power gun was like mercury pouring down the ground. Gu Jianqiu, who was only wearing a pair of arm armors, was almost unable to fight back. The two sides fought for ten seconds. Many minutes. Gu Jianqiu still couldn't get close, and he didn't want to exchange injuries for injuries, so he had no choice but to admit defeat.
This martial arts instructor always had a cold face and immediately issued an order to expel the guest.
In another defeat, Gu Jianqiu chose Baihe Sect's main branch in Jiangning. His opponent was named Gan. He was an old man in his fifties and could not tell the level of his heart rate. When he saw that Gu Jianqiu was only wearing gauntlets, he offered to use a pair of apprentices In the training Iron Finger Tiger duel, the two of them exchanged hundreds of moves, and the old man killed Gu Jianqiu until Gu Jianqiu's middle door was wide open, and it was almost difficult to deal with it.
Coupled with Gu Jianqiu's unconscious blocking movements and observation of steps when attacking the old man, this old man should usually use two swords to fight the enemy, not a tiger. It can be seen that the old man did not use all his strength.
So Gu Jianqiu was convinced and took the initiative to admit defeat. The old man didn't say much and just gave Gu Jianqiu the apprentice finger tiger in his hand.
This is of course not a valuable thing. Begonia has always had a tradition of being given by elders and not willing to refuse. Gu Jianqiu only regarded it as a memorial and accepted it respectfully.
Except for these two people, Gu Jianqiu won easily.
Now, Gu Jianqiu's ECG has reached the 14th standard ECG, and he has already memorized the book "Nvqing. Ghost Rhythm" by heart. When he went out today, his steps were sloppy again, his face was pale, and his head seemed to be buzzing with strange electric waves, and from time to time he heard hallucinations like the murmur of a female ghost.
As long as he has another hearty battle with the people of the old religion and digests the so-called "six days of old energy", Gu Jianqiu will definitely be able to break through the fifteen standard ECG. At that time, he can really use the double-arm armor...
It's just that today's Wuguan Street seems different from the past.
The entrances of every martial arts school are wide open, and their disciples are lined up, forming an Arhat formation. Even the state-run military training center, which has always had an official background and has not been involved in political affairs, also opened its doors. Several young apprentices stood upright with stern faces, as if they were waiting for something.
Gu Jianqiu pretended not to see him, and walked to the corner of Wuguan Street with his gauntlet in hand. A corner of simple cornices was exposed at the intersection in front of him. Gu Jianqiu turned the corner and suddenly saw what appeared in front of him. It was a simple and elegant restaurant, but it also showed a few... A dilapidated martial arts dojo.
On the pear wood plaque in the middle, it looks like an iron painting with silver hooks, and there are four characters "Huangdi Chuan Yi" written in it.
The so-called art taught in the Huangdi Neijing is Five Elements Boxing.
This is the last martial arts gym on Wuguan Street that Gu Jianqiu visits.
Like other martial arts gyms, this martial arts gym also opened its doors. What Gu Jianqiu didn't expect was that the courtyard of the martial arts gym was actually full of people, including Hong Sheng's Master Liu Tong, Da Hongsheng's Master Zhang, including the man who defeated him Yes, the cold-faced instructor from the Ancient Military Academy was also among them.
"Hey, here you go, be on time. I just said..."
Liu Tong slapped his chest, as if he was proud of something.
"Excuse me……"
"No need to say more. Ahem, cough, cough~ I know you are here to play."
A middle-aged man with a thin face and glasses walked out of the inner hall. He walked to the middle of the yard, looked at Gu Jianqiu for a while, and then said:
"I am the owner of this Five Elements Boxing Gym, Fu Nanzhi."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two martial arts disciples closed the red-black door tightly, and the whole courtyard was quiet except for the cough of the owner Fu Nanzhi.
"My surname is Gu, Gu Jianqiu."
"Master Gu, we are all guests here. Let's have a cup of tea and discuss it later."
A young man about the same age as Gu Tianyu came to Gu Jianqiu with a cup of hot tea, his eyes filled with vague hostility.
Gu Jianqiu came to play at the gym. He was used to seeing this kind of look, so he pretended he didn't see it.
Almost all the famous masters in Wuguan Street are here, so there will be no problem with the tea. Gu Jianqiu picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, then saluted according to the rules of the world: "Master Fu, let's talk in court."
Narrating in the hall means discussing things behind closed doors.
"No need, let's decide the winner here."
Gu Jianqiu was stunned: "This..."
He looked around and saw that everyone present had actually fought against him. Since they were all gathered together, there was nothing to avoid. Gu Jianqiu vaguely felt that he had accidentally gotten into some trouble, but he would have to fight it to find out.
"Oh well."
Gu Jianqiu agreed.
The Five Elements Boxers were noisy in the distance.
"That's him? Are you kidding? He doesn't look older than me!"
"I see he only has fifteen ECGs."
"Fourteen, you can't go wrong."
"We picked fourteen martial arts schools in a row in one month, and only Cheng Ying from the Ancient Military Academy won."
"Hit someone with a pair of gauntlets with a spear? With a quasi-heavenly official background, asking a young man with less than fifteen ECGs to beat him until he is sweating profusely and not even touching a hair on the person. Is this called winning? He really If you win, you won't withdraw from the Tianguan exam in the second half of the year. It's obvious that you will be beaten to a broken heart. I took the initiative to admit defeat to save face for the Ancient Military Academy."
"I heard that other masters were beaten to the ground or lost their weapons. Master Cheng Ying is already considered decent."
"Master Fu, please."
"It's not my father who fights you, it's me who fights you."
Gu Jianqiu looked in the direction of the voice. He saw that the person speaking was about the same age as himself. He had long black eyebrows, pink eyes, a high nose bridge, slightly pursed lips and red lips, but his face was cold and covered with a layer of frost. She wears a white arrow-sleeved dress, showing her tall figure, with a bright red collar and waistband, and a thick black long ponytail falling straight to her waist, without any unnecessary decoration.
After saying this, she fell into the field with a few steps like a crane, picked out a charged tiger-headed eyebrow stick from the weapon rack, and held a stick flower towards Gu Jianqiu.
"Master Gu, please!"
"This is my daughter Fu Lemei. Although she is young, her attainments in Five Elements instruments are already better than mine. Master Gu, let her compete with you."
"Honored."
Just as Gu Jianqiu was about to put on the gauntlet, he was stopped by Fu Nanzhi: "Master Gu, I heard from several masters that your gauntlet is quite extraordinary. It doesn't seem to be an ordinary mining gauntlet."
Gu Jianqiu nodded: "Yes."
"If I were to play in person, I would never say anything like this because of my old age, but I only have an only daughter in my old age, and I am afraid that the magic weapon will have no eyesight and hurt her life. I am thick-skinned. I beg you, Master Gu, if you can change a weapon to duel with my daughter? My dojo is fully equipped with all kinds of weapons. In addition to fists and kicks, does Master Gu have any other equipment that he is good at?"
Fu Lemei took a step forward and was about to say something when her father stopped her with his eyes.
Gu Jianqiu thought for a while, and when he saw the long stick in Fu Lemei's hand, a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.
"I have experience in both sword and stick skills. Why don't you ask the gym owner to pick out a long rechargeable stick of the same model as Qianyuan for me."
