An unexpected change happened again. Except for the people in Cai's mansion, all the other members of the escort team actually gave up resistance. The escorts who were wearing weapons took off their swords and threw them on the ground, while the pawnshop clerk who didn't have any weapons. They also got off the station and stood aside.
"You..." Lei Ming frowned when he saw this situation. He shouted sternly at these people: "The opponent's number is less than half of ours. Are you going to surrender?"
Surrender can describe the behavior of these people at this time, but it is not accurate.
Because the object of surrender is to the "enemy".
At this moment, the giant man Wei Kui came over carrying Cai Zheng. He likes to carry people around recently. The servants responsible for protecting Cai Zheng were punched by Wei Kui and then fainted on the ground. They were put under unified supervision by the people brought by He Nan.
Talking about twice the number of people is actually useless. At this point, apart from He Nan and his group, the only people standing in this large circle were the martial artist Lei Ming and the two servants who were riding in the same car with him.
He Nan glanced at Wei Kui. He knew that Wei Kui would definitely ask for a "one-on-one challenge", so he let him go.
As expected, Wei Kui walked to the middle, took off the two halberds he was carrying and stuck them on the ground. He hooked his fingers to Lei Ming and said, "Come on, come out and challenge me. If you beat me, I will let you go."
Dongfang Tuo glanced at He Nan, as if asking him what to do if the other party won, but He Nan shook his head at him, not knowing what he meant.
Lei Ming frowned, but like Wei Kui, he still took off his waist knife and threw it aside. He knew that if the other party swarmed him, he would not be able to escape unless he was a Da Luo Jinxian, but since the other party took the initiative to make this request, there was still a glimmer of hope.
There are a lot of rules to follow in a serious one-on-one match.
Swords have no eyes, so you have to decide whether to use the weapon; fists can also kill people, so you have to decide whether to end it or live and die... In short, this is a very troublesome thing, and sometimes there is no time to set the rules. It takes longer than a real sword fight.
But, this can also be said to be reasonable - for reasons, everyone needs "fairness", but for Qing, it's not a big problem to say a few words before taking action.
Don't you see that before two groups of hooligans get into a fight, they have to scold each other for a while and wait for a middleman to "settle things". They really can't wait any longer before taking action?
Jianghu is not about fighting and killing.
The rivers and lakes are buzzing.
Wei Peng was born in the army, and Lei Ming had already withdrawn from the "jianghu", so the two of them didn't have so much nonsense to talk about. They already made their attitude clear by throwing down their weapons.
Thunder Palm's momentum is like thunder, and its strikes are like lightning. Lei Ming uses a move of lightning to fly into his hand, directly hitting Wei Kui's chest.
To put it bluntly, this is actually a straight punch, but the advantage is that it is extremely fast.
Wei Kui's body was more than a circle bigger than Lei Ming's, and he was two heads taller. This was why Lei Ming didn't hit Wei Kui's face directly... he couldn't hit him.
But Wei Kui wanted to hit Lei Ming's head, but it was very easy. He directly raised his elbow and cut in, at the cost of a fierce straight punch from the opponent in his own chest, just to defeat the enemy with one blow.
Exchanging blood for blood and winning with one blow, this is Wei Kui's martial arts.
It's a pity that he underestimated Thunder.
It is true that Lei Ming was only a second-rate master before he quit the arena, but it should be noted that in the chaotic world of the arena, the situation of second-rate masters is relatively the most dangerous.
why?
First of all, let’s make it clear – second-rate, this level is very embarrassing.
At the top, they are almost first-rate, first-rate. These people have enough hard power and most of them have backers. They can operate in any situation. If their fists and feet are not balanced, they can rely on their background; at the bottom, they are third-rate or even not first-rate. Martial arts training is purely for entertainment. I also know that I don't have the strength, so I will bully the common people and give in when I encounter tough problems.
There is only the second-rate level, and he can't get up or down. He feels that third-rate or even inferior people are not worthy of playing with him, but he wants to get up, but he can't get up, and he can't beat other first-rate masters, so he is stuck here.
After talking about hard work, let’s talk about making a living.
A first-class master will always have a place to go. The disciples taught by the sect will flourish in the sect. When they go to work outside, some people will pay a high price to hire him to control the place, and even the court will issue a decree to recruit him. You can be a lone ranger if you want. At least you can ensure that one person has enough to eat and the whole family is not hungry. If you become famous, you will even be specially entertained by people wherever you go.
What about third-rate martial artists? You know what your level is. Those who are more lucky are employed as guards for landlords and squires. Those who are less lucky are shameless and perform on the streets. Those whose moral standards are not that high either work as thugs in thieves' villages or hang out with local gangsters. .
As for the second-rate masters who come from the big sect, at least they have the sect to support them.
However, most of the second-rate masters who have become second-rate masters have learned from a bad master when they were young, or their talents have stopped there. However, people who can become second-rate masters will always be more ambitious than third-rate masters, and they may be able to impact the impact. Am I also a first-class person?
But the fact is that if you can become first-class, you have already become first-class. And if you haven't touched the first-class threshold by the age of thirty, you can only hope to fall off the cliff and meet your grandfather.
Therefore, second-rate lone martial artists do not have such outstanding skills nor strong enough backers. Although the frequency of fights is not high, the disability and death rates are definitely the highest.
Lei Ming is a more realistic person, and he is also lucky enough to fall into the Cai family's lap. But he definitely experienced a lot of fatal disasters in his career in the martial arts world - not because he had many enemies, but because even someone who was not particularly strong could kill him.
Therefore, his martial arts talent is not very high, but his fighting ability is definitely not weak.
After this straight punch hit Wei Kui, Lei Ming did not take advantage of the momentum to strike in a row, but directly took a "ghost out and lightning in" step to get away.
Lei Ming's mentality is actually very simple. No matter whether the punch hits or not, I must hide.
So the first round of the confrontation ended with Wei Kui getting punched in the chest, and Lei Ming also successfully avoided Wei Kui's fatal elbow.
Lei Ming's move worked, so in the next ten or so rounds, he adopted the "one-hit escape" tactic. Regardless of whether he missed a hit, he had to escape when it was time to escape. These fists and palms Wei defeated or Blocked or hit, but failed to catch Lei Ming.
The onlookers couldn't help but feel that this scene was like an old cow chasing away flies, maybe Lei Ming could win.
But Wei Kui knew from the beginning that the only one who could win was himself.
The first blow was that Wei Kui underestimated Lei Ming, but in the subsequent confrontations, it was Lei Ming who underestimated Wei Kui.
The reason why Wei Kui chose this clumsy method was because he was testing the limits of Lei Ming—the limits of speed and power.
It seems that Wei Kui is being led by Lei Ming, but in fact, with every attack by Wei Kui, Lei Ming's speed passively increases by a few points, and as Lei Ming focuses on dodge, the offensive aspect His energy was weakened, so except for the first few punches, it was not painful or itchy for Wei Kui.
"Your fighting style... is wrong." Seizing the opportunity for Lei Ming to move away from his fist, Wei Kui said: "Although I don't know what kind of punch you are using, but I know that this punch should be very strong. Meng, he takes the straight path."
Lei Ming did not respond to this question. Doing it all together is a habit he has developed over the years and cannot be changed overnight.
"You don't have enough physical strength to fight like this." Wei Kui added another sentence in the midst of his busy schedule.
Yes, Lei Ming also felt that he was a little weak, but there was nothing he could do.
Wei Kui didn't want to take advantage of others' danger, so he took action while Lei Ming's strength was not exhausted.
This was the first move between the two of them when they collided head-on. Wei Kui's fist came first and hit Lei Ming's fist. In the second move, Wei Kui punched Lei Ming on the right side of the ribs. Lei Ming fell over and fell to the ground and vomited two mouthfuls of blood.
The right hand where Lei Ming punched was in excruciating pain, and what frightened him even more was that he could no longer feel his lower body.
Seeing Lei Ming struggling for a few times but not getting up, most of the people watching, whether friends or foes, were surprised - it was Wei Kui who had been beaten just now, why couldn't Lei Ming survive after just one punch?
But Lei Ming, who was lying on the ground, felt a sense of sadness in his heart - this sadness was not because he failed to keep his master's property, but because he was clearly aware of the gap between himself and Wei Kui.
Wei Kui also realized something belatedly at this time.
Every decision Lei Ming made was right. He gave up the fierceness of Thunder Palm and chose to use tricks to survive until today. In today's battle, every attack and dodge made by Lei Ming was blameless.
This is a very real issue, regarding ability. It is like a chasm between ordinary people and geniuses, between geniuses and more talented people.
At this time, Wei Kui even felt that some feelings of invincibility were growing in his heart. He realized that Lei Ming's "problem" that he had just picked out had nothing to do with the fighting style, but the difference in talent between the two - Wei Kui's punch Lei Ming may not be able to do what he can do even if he punches ten times with all his strength.
This was his first victory over an opponent, but there was no joy. Without even looking at anyone else, he walked to a boulder by the road and sat down, wondering what he was thinking.
The motorcade heading to the capital did not stop, but the Cai family who were originally sitting in the carriage were replaced by Dongfang Watcher and the escort guys. Now they no longer have to be exposed to the wind and sun outside, and can take turns to rest. In the end, this shady escort team will arrive in the capital with He Nan's instructions.
He Nan and his party did not stop. He could not let go of the Cai family, but he could not kill them either. He could only temporarily ask Li Shitong to imprison them, and this matter had to be avoided by Cai Meng. Eyes and ears will do.
In short, after this step is completed, it is time to prepare to close the net.
