Chapter 222: Child, you still need to practice.
Xiao Ning's mouth twitched.
She thought he wanted to compete with her to see who could pee farther.
Xiao Ning thought about it and nodded in agreement. It just so happened that she was itching to stretch her muscles.
"Then see you in the training ground this afternoon."
Xu Chong put his hands on his hips and said, "I've figured out a new set of moves. I'm sure I can defeat you this time!"
Xiao Ning was very disdainful when he heard this: "Really? Then I'll wait and see."
After saying that, he left.
The brother who had been peeing with Xu Chong earlier came over, hooked his arm around his shoulder, and asked, "Why are you so keen on defeating the general?"
Xu Chong said: "Why not a competition between men?"
"And every time I fight a general, I can find my own shortcomings and correct them..."
"General is my lifelong goal. I will defeat him sooner or later!"
Xu Chong clenched his fist, full of fighting spirit.
"Then I think you will never achieve this goal in your lifetime."
Xu Chong glared at the man: "What do you mean?"
The man looked at Xiao Ning's receding back and said with a click of his tongue, "The general is an insurmountable mountain. No one can move him."
"That's right, for heroes like the general, we can only look up to them."
Xu Chong: "...Get lost!"
He slapped his brother's hand away and turned back to the barracks.
He needs to take a good rest and must defeat the general in the afternoon to let these bastards see who is the boss!
It’s true that the general is a hero, and he’s not a bad guy either!
Afternoon.
As soon as they heard that Xiao Ning and Xu Chong were going to fight, the whole camp was in an uproar.
The training ground was surrounded by three layers of soldiers, making it airtight.
On the training ground, two men stood facing each other, holding spears in their hands.
"General, I'm about to begin!"
Xu Chong swung his spear and rushed towards Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning rushed forward with a gun.
The two men fought evenly and were inseparable, which was a great pleasure for everyone to watch.
Most of the spear techniques used by Xu Chong were taught by Xiao Ning, so the long spear he thrust out could always be easily blocked by Xiao Ning.
"You can't defeat me like this."
Xu Chong gritted his teeth and chuckled without saying anything.
The spears collided, making clanging sounds and occasional sparks flying. The two men moved quickly, raising a cloud of dust.
In the flying dust, the two figures moved faster and faster.
Almost only the afterimage remains.
All the crowd could hear was the clang clang sound of the spears colliding.
The two have always been anxious and evenly matched.
Until Xu Chong suddenly used the shooting skills he had recently studied.
Killed Xiao Ning by surprise.
The spear nearly slipped out of her hand, so she used the force to pull back and shifted the spear to her left hand.
Xiao Ning shook his numb right hand.
Good job!
This guy actually learned to play dirty tricks!
Xu Chong didn't give her time to react. He rushed forward with a gun in hand, his lips raised high, as if he was sure of victory.
Xiao Ning snorted and rushed forward with the gun in his left hand.
Pretend to be defeated.
While dodging, he observed Xu Chong's new shooting skills.
I have to say that Xu Chong has a pretty high talent for martial arts.
But Xiao Ning has more practical experience.
She quickly mastered Xu Chong's spear skills, and in the subsequent battles, she was the one who cracked Xu Chong's spear skills step by step until the spear was placed on Xu Chong's neck.
Xu Chong: “…”
Xiao Ning raised his lips: "Kid, you still need to practice."
After saying that, she put away the gun, and the gun drew a beautiful arc in the air. She held the gun in her left hand and put it behind her back.
My right hand hanging by my side was still slightly numb.
Xu Chong glanced at her right hand, which was trembling slightly at her side, and said, "Why is your left hand more flexible than your right?"
If she hadn't changed her hand, he would have won!
Xiao Ning: "Because I am the God of War with Two Guns."
Xu Chong: "...You can kill the enemy with two guns at the same time? How is that possible!"
He had seen people wielding dual swords, but he had seen people wielding dual guns...
Wouldn't the two guns just start firing on their own?
Xiao Ning coughed lightly: "This gun is not that gun."
Xu Chong pressed on: "If it's not this gun, then which gun is it? Are there any other guns?"
Xiao Ning: "...You still don't understand even if I tell you. Why did you make such a fuss about wanting to compete? Now that you've lost, what are you going to say?"
Xu Chong clasped his fists and said, "My skills are inferior to yours! General, if you have any requests, please let me know and I will do it!"
"You are punished by filling all the water tanks in the kitchen with water today."
This task is indeed a heavy one.
Xu Chong gritted his teeth and nodded: "I will obey your command!"
At this time, someone shouted excitedly: "General, a letter! A letter from Shengjing!"
Xiao Ning turned around when she heard that and saw the messenger holding up the letter and calling her.
Xiao Ning raised the corners of his lips and strode towards the messenger. The soldiers watching in the parade ground spontaneously made way for him.
It wasn't until Xiao Ning left that Shen Zhiyi came back to his senses.
This was not the first time he had seen Xiao Ning fight, but every time he saw her fight, he couldn't help but be attracted.
Such a dashing one.
Like the freest wind, with untamed wildness, wanton and dazzling.
Shen Zhiyi had never seen such a person.
Everyone says that the young master of the Shen family is bright and handsome, and is as sharp as a knife and as polished as a jade.
But he has been pressured by Shen Xiang to learn various things since he was a child.
His character was carved out bit by bit.
While other children of his age were still being held in their mothers' arms and gently coaxed, he was being taught calligraphy by Shen Xiang.
He also didn't let him get close to his mother.
Once he secretly went to see his mother and was almost strangled to death by her.
Not long after that, my mother died...
When he grew up, he found out that he was not the Shen family's child, but the princess named Shang Xi was.
And he was the orphan of the previous emperor who was replaced.
Shang Xi's sister died because of him.
Chen Xiang said that in order to protect him, many people died, and he even abandoned his own children.
The heavy burden of gratitude made him feel suffocated.
He could only follow the steps and learn various things according to Chen Xiang's requirements.
He was thirteen years old when he learned the truth, and Concubine Rong had already died.
At the Grand Princess' birthday banquet, he secretly glanced at Shang Xi.
He is so handsome, not like a boy at all. He just sits quietly on the side with a cold face, ignoring everyone.
A princess of similar age murmured about him.
The sound was not loud, but not small either. Not only Shang Xi, but even he could hear it.
Shang Xi didn't look up, but threw the cup on the table, hitting the princess's feet.
Broken porcelain flew everywhere, and brown tea smudged on the princess's moon-white palace dress.
The princess screamed and jumped away.
Before the princess could react, Shang Xi said coldly, "Sister, do you know what I'm saying about you, Your Majesty?"
It is well known that the emperor favors Shang Xi.
The princess was so angry that her face turned blue, but she had to suppress her anger.
Because from childhood to adulthood, no matter what happened, as long as it was related to Shang Xi, it was someone else's fault.
No one was talking.
Shang Xi stood up, glanced coldly at everyone present, then turned around, lifted her skirt and left.
Shen Zhiyi followed him as if possessed by some mysterious force.
Young Shang Xi turned around and stared at him coldly.
"Why are you following me?"
The young Shen Zhiyi whispered: "On the way..."
Shang Xi looked at him and turned away.
He stood there, watching him leave, his heart aching.
He looked at his back, bit his lip, and whispered, "I'm sorry..."
