Martial Arts Master

Naturally, Lou Cheng had no way of knowing about Tang Zexun's change of mind, and had no interest in knowing about it. After spending a few days with Yan Zheke, he sent the girl on her way back to Xiushan.

After two more rounds of competition, this top professional competition finally came to an end. The Longhu Club lived up to expectations and won the title of "No. 1 in the world". Lou Cheng, because he only played three main games, seemed to lack a sense of recognition. , secretly determined to play a more important role in the new competition after the Spring Festival.

For this reason, he gave up other arena competitions in January and planned to relax, polish his blade, and accumulate edge.

In addition to this goal, he also wants to select the key points in the new round of the five major title battles, attack with all his strength, strive for a breakthrough ranking, and even compete for the right to challenge!

This is a goal that "King Ming" Zhihai failed to achieve even one and a half years after he achieved Waigang. Only a few people such as "Martial Saint" Qian Donglou have achieved it.

However, to use Lou Cheng’s words to Yan Zheke to explain:

If a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a salted fish?

In early January, Yan Zheke returned to Huacheng, and Lou Cheng took her on a six-day self-driving tour in Guangnan. The couple washed away the mental fatigue accumulated in the previous year and glowed with new brilliance.

After making an appointment to celebrate the New Year together in Kangcheng, Lou Cheng said goodbye to the little fairy again and began to meet the Dragon King, Luo Queen and others one by one to wish them a good year and plan to return home early to spend more time with his parents.

Before that, he flew to the northern city of Huiyuan to meet his best friend while he had some free time.

This is the hometown of "King of Mouths" Cai Zongming. It's not a big place, but it's not a small place. You can't get there directly by flight, so you have to take a high-speed train.

Xiao Ming, who always dressed simply but not simply, waited for the exit with a look of disgust on his face. He looked at the disguised Lou Cheng and said angrily:

"Can't you go a few days earlier or a few days later?"

"Tsk." Lou Cheng expressed his contempt and deep meaning in his tone.

He knew that Qingsheng's girlfriend Fangyuan should be on vacation these days.

However, isn’t this effect pretty good? Lou Cheng chuckled to himself and followed Cai Zongming to his dark black SUV without noticing anything else. He opened the trunk and put his luggage in.

"Try our special barbecue first?" Cai Zongming suggested.

"Okay, don't you always say that Huiyuan's roasted lamb tail is one of the best?" Lou Cheng recalled what Zui Wang had boasted about before.

Cai Zongming turned the steering wheel familiarly and said:

"You'll know if you try it! The meat is very lively, tender, and fragrant. Once you bite it, oh, that feeling... When I was in middle school, I spent three days fishing and two days drying nets to practice martial arts. After self-study in the evening, I often I was so hungry that I would order ten skewers of sheep tails outside the school instead of going home. Ten skewers... Tsk, that taste is something I will never forget in my life."

"Come on, you used to have a lot of pocket money... When I was in high school, if I didn't save for a few days, how could I afford kebabs? Let alone junior high school, I even had breakfast on credit." Lou Cheng sighed. The content is not the point at all.

"Please respect a rich second generation." Xiao Ming answered concisely and concisely.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, he drove to a busy commercial street and found a barbecue restaurant at the back.

"Twenty, forty skewers of sheep tails, uh, do you want a big kidney?" Cai Zongming picked up the menu and looked at Lou Cheng with an ambiguous smile.

"What's your expression?" Lou Cheng made a contemptuous gesture.

"You sleep next to me tonight. I'm afraid you'll eat too many kidneys and attack me at night." Cai Zongming made a dirty joke.

Then, he rattled out a list of dish names to the waiter.

While waiting for baking, Lou Cheng expressed concern as a guest and junior:

"Hey, Mouth King, how is your father's health lately?"

"He looks better, but he refuses to listen. The doctor asked him to stop drinking, but he refuses to do so. He has to drink one drink at noon and every night. When he tries to persuade him, he blows his beard and stares, saying that there is nothing left to live like that. I mean, I would rather die." Cai Zongming spread his hands and said, "What can I do? I am also desperate."

"There shouldn't be any problem if you drink a little, as long as you don't overdose." Lou Cheng knew nothing about similar aspects, so he could only comfort him casually.

Following this topic, Cai Zongming talked about his life in recent months:

"...I find that doing business is really tiring. I have to force a smile every day, socialize with people I don't want to socialize with, and say things I don't want to say..."

"Have you learned how to be sentimental?" Lou Cheng comforted him in a joking way.

Cai Zongming suddenly became happy:

"Are you here to talk to me about cross talk? But, my family's business has been going downhill in the past two years. Hey, the entire industry has entered its twilight period, and smaller ones have closed down one after another. I want to take advantage of this opportunity. Slowly liquidate the business, let those relatives and friends see which direction the wind is blowing, withdraw by yourself, or take over if you want, I can transfer it directly to them."

"What happens after that? Won't you become a vagrant?" Lou Cheng teased.

Cai Zongming sneered and waved his hand boldly:

"My family still has some foundation. Did you see that commercial street just now? One-third of the shops are ours!"

"Oh no..." Lou Cheng said amusedly, "Then should I respectfully call you Cai Bancheng?"

"You can't count, it's obviously only one-third!" Xiao Ming said in reply.

Then, he sighed:

"At that time, I will be relaxed and free. I will continue to practice martial arts while doing online live broadcasts. I can live at home for half the year and stay in the imperial capital for half the year."

"Live broadcast?" Lou Cheng grabbed the keyword and asked doubtfully.

Cai Zongming chuckled and said:

"I've been watching live broadcasts of martial arts competitions online recently, and I found that many commentators not only have poor skills in moves, but are also boring and uninteresting, so I just set up a live broadcast room and planned to show them what it means to be professional and classy!"

"Haha, then I'll make a little advertisement for you later." Lou Cheng said with interest.

Cai Zongming hurriedly waved his hand: "No, not for now."

"Why?" Lou Cheng was surprised.

Cai Zongming replied seriously:

"I want to try it on my own."

Before Lou Cheng could speak, he pointed at himself: "Have you seen my handsome face? This time I want to rely purely on my own talent! This kind of pain is something that an ordinary guy like you can't understand. "

"Get lost!" Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming looked at each other and laughed.

After laughing for a while, classmate Xiao Ming wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "To be honest, it's just fun now. Let's talk about it if necessary in the future."

At this time, the first part of the skewers was delivered, and the two began to feast.

After eating and drinking, Lou Cheng praised the sheep's tail and followed Cai Zongming to the commercial street for a walk to eat.

"Here, this is where I started practicing martial arts." As we walked, classmate Xiao Ming pointed to a martial arts gym facing the street and said.

The name of that martial arts gym was unsurprisingly ordinary, it was called "Huihara Stars".

"When the kidnapping happened?" Lou Cheng recalled the past conversations.

"Well." The corner of Cai Zongming's mouth turned up, and he said with half emotion and half yearning, "Every time I pass by here, I think, if I really want to be free, I will still try to practice martial arts. I may not necessarily take this path, but at least I have to experience the taste of the elixir realm, otherwise I won’t be willing to accept it, damn, those round and bright bumps make it look like a man can get pregnant.”

The corner of Lou Cheng's mouth twitched and he said:

"King of Mouth, I think you should stop doing live broadcasts of commentary and live cross talk. Well, it will definitely become a big hit!"

Just as Cai Zongming was about to answer, an old man wearing a black woolen coat suddenly walked out of the door of the martial arts hall. He was about sixty years old, his hair was still black, and he was very energetic. If it weren't for the obvious wrinkles on his face, he would be said to be a middle-aged man. It’s not an exaggeration.

"Cai, Zong Ming." The old man glanced at him and was stunned for half a second.

"Hello, Coach Yu." Classmate Xiao Ming greeted with a smile.

Then, he lowered his voice and said to Lou Cheng: "I am the martial arts enlightenment coach."

Old Yu put his hands behind his back, walked over, looked at the former student up and down for a while, and said with a half smile and half sigh:

"You have strong energy and blood, so you haven't stopped exercising... I often tell others that the one I regret the most is you. If you had been more serious, focused, and worked hard back then, you would definitely be more than this now..."

After sighing, he didn't say anything more, just exchanged a few words, patted Cai Zongming on the shoulder, and then slowly turned around and left.

"You're a good enlightenment coach..." Lou Cheng listened quietly, looked at his back, and sighed.

It had been many years, but he still remembered the King of Mouths.

Cai Zongming chuckled and said: "Coach Yu is indeed a good person and a respectable elder. The only problem is that he is too proud and likes to take advantage."

"Ah? How do you say that?" Lou Cheng asked in a funny tone.

Cai Zongming pointed to the gate of the martial arts hall and said: "Before, our Songda Martial Arts Club was quite famous in the country. I passed by here once and saw my promotional poster. It said about outstanding students, Lou Cheng and Lin Que. Teammates... so damn shameful!"

"Haha." Lou Cheng laughed out loud.

…………

Old Yu walked down the street and subconsciously turned around to take a look. He happened to see the leaving figures of Lou Cheng and Cai Zongming, and felt that they were both equally familiar.

I don’t know him... He smiled and shook his head, and continued to turn towards the nearby community. Suddenly, he froze on the spot, and another figure overlapped with a certain strong man.

Even though he was disguised, it was definitely him!

Old Yu quickly looked back, but the figure had disappeared and there was no trace of him anymore.

He felt lost and heartbroken for a moment, just like there was a stack of money on the ground but he didn't pay attention and failed to pick it up.

This state lasted for a long time. When he returned home, old man Yu was still sighing and couldn't even taste the midnight snack made by his wife.

"What's wrong?" his wife asked in confusion.

"I didn't..." Old Man Yu scolded himself, "Oh, what a waste! What a heartache! What a good opportunity..."

"My heart aches..."
