Chapter 56 Farewell to Qingyu
"Alright, that's enough!"
Suddenly, Qingyu appeared between the two, extending her hands to block their fists from the left and right!
"If you two were to punch each other like that, you'd both be seriously injured!"
After Qingyu finished speaking, Han Shuo and Xiao Zhao gradually calmed down, panting heavily. They both knew that they had gotten carried away!
"Xiao Zhao, you lost. Brother Han Shuo, that was a great match!" Qing Yu gave Han Shuo a thumbs up.
Xiao Zhao didn't speak, but he was somewhat unconvinced. He believed that if he could simply avoid Han Shuo's punch and continue fighting, the outcome was uncertain!
"Xiao Zhao, do you know where you went wrong?" Qingyu turned and asked seriously.
"Captain, where did I go wrong?"
"You lost because you didn't aim for Han Shuo's face with that last punch; you chose his shoulder instead." Qingyu could tell from Xiao Zhao's eyes that he was still unconvinced.
"Sigh, you could have won, but you still had some concerns in the end. I know you chose that position because you were afraid of hurting Han Shuo." Qingyu sighed, patted Xiao Zhao's shoulder, and her expression softened considerably as she continued.
"Although this is just a friendly spar, and your choice wasn't wrong, it's a big no-no if the opponent is your enemy!"
"You know the power of that punch. If it had hit Han Shuo in the face, he would have continued to trade blows and would have fallen before you. If he dodged it, you could have readjusted your condition and continued to fight. You still have a higher probability of winning."
"Han Shuo won because he was more ruthless than you! He chose to take your punch head-on, leaving you with no way to retreat! During the sparring, neither of you was in mortal danger, but he had already regarded you as an enemy, and his final punch was aimed at your face! Do you think you could withstand his final punch without falling down?"
Qingyu provided detailed and accurate commentary on the outcome of the battle between the two!
After listening to Qingyu's words, Xiao Zhao lowered his head. He knew that the captain was right; he had indeed hesitated at the last moment.
Two punches of roughly equal force, one to the face and the other to the shoulder, the difference in their impact and the resulting consequences, were something Xiao Zhao could analyze.
Although he was still somewhat unwilling, Xiao Zhao admitted that he was not as decisive as Han Shuo in making judgments!
"Brother Han, I lost!"
"Haha, I'm just lucky, really lucky."
Han Shuo modestly declined, but he did not feel guilty for his ruthlessness. He had always carried this ruthlessness with him since he started practicing swordsmanship.
Han Shuo needs to maintain this feeling at all times so that when faced with a crisis, he can make the most appropriate response without any psychological hesitation, relying on his instincts!
"Come on, you're still being modest. I'm completely convinced of your victory, and besides... you didn't even use a knife!" Qingyu said to Han Shuo with a smile, seemingly lost in thought.
Before Han Shuo could even reply, the soldiers who had been watching the commotion all rushed over and, without giving him a chance to react, tossed him into the air.
It falls, then is thrown up again; it falls, then is thrown up again...
They cheered and celebrated Han Shuo's victory!
At this moment, even Qingyu did not stop his subordinates.
They hadn't expected Han Shuo to actually win, especially since he won the match in such a head-on manner. This tough guy behavior only fueled their passion!
If the soldiers had previously only expressed their gratitude to Han Shuo...
And now! They sincerely acknowledge and admire them!
...
"Alright, alright, put him down now. If you keep tossing Han Shuo around, he'll get dizzy."
After two minutes of revelry, Qingyu finally spoke up, stopping his men, and Han Shuo finally put his feet back on the ground.
"Uh... everyone is really enthusiastic!" Han Shuo shook his head; the ups and downs of the past two minutes had really made him a little dizzy.
"Haha, who told you to be so eye-catching!" Qingyu praised again in a hearty voice.
"Brother Han, you will be my role model from now on. I will definitely continue to work hard!" Xiao Zhao's eyes showed some envy, but he didn't feel jealous at all.
"Young and promising!" The old soldier glanced at Xiao Zhao for a moment, then at Han Shuo. How long ago was it? He too had been just as glorious in his youth.
In the current tense atmosphere, this scene actually greatly relieved the pressure on everyone's mind!
"Alright, alright, everyone else, you can leave now! You two aren't seriously injured, but you're both bruised and swollen. Come to my room and I'll put some ointment on you to reduce the swelling!"
With a wave of his hand, Qingyu dispersed the soldiers who were watching and led Han Shuo and the other man to his house.
After quickly applying the ointment to the two of them, Qingyu checked their bodies again and, seeing that they were indeed alright, felt relieved.
...
And so, Han Shuo stayed here for another two days. Perhaps because he had shown his prowess that day, and with the soldiers' enthusiasm, Han Shuo, who was usually not good at socializing, actually became familiar with all of Qing Yu's men here!
Of course, besides Qingyu, Xiao Zhao is the person I'm closest to!
Although Han Shuo was good at using a knife, his marksmanship was truly appalling. After Xiao Zhao found out, he would often come over to give him some pointers.
Although shooting practice is not allowed here, Han Shuo has actually learned a lot about firearms in the past two days.
Han Shuo only realized that this kid was a genius when he saw Xiao Zhao's expertise. He had all sorts of skills, such as how to aim accurately, unorthodox techniques for identifying wind interference, and other miscellaneous things, which benefited Han Shuo a lot!
...
By the third day, Qingyu's ointment was indeed effective, and there were no more bruises on Han Shuo's face!
Counting the days, today is already the eighth day since Han Shuo came out of the farm!
With only two days left until the agreed-upon time with Fatty Li Shurou, Han Shuo decided to say goodbye to Qingyu temporarily and bring them back!
...
What? You're actually planning to leave?
Just now, Han Shuo told Qingyu that he wanted to leave tomorrow morning.
Qingyu was a little confused. Han Shuo had been staying here well these past few days, so why did he want to leave?
Han Shuo was also a little embarrassed, as it had been so many days since he had brought up the matter with Qing Yu.
“I have two friends far away, and I want to bring them over.”
"The distance? How far is it?" Qingyu asked.
"About two thousand kilometers?"
"Are you crazy? That's almost halfway across the country!" Qingyu was a little angry, not because Han Shuo only brought it up today, but because Han Shuo's idea was a bit willful!
Two thousand kilometers? That's too far now.
"I feel there shouldn't be any major problems. I set off from there eight days ago, and the journey was relatively safe. I'm confident I can return the same way!"
Han Shuo said resolutely that he was free here. Although he respected Qing Yu, he was only saying goodbye, not discussing this matter.
Han Shuo will never abandon Fatty and Li Shurou!
