Chapter 277 Progress
At five o'clock the next morning, Chen Chuan got up, washed, and packed up, ready to leave. After putting on his clothes, he seemed to have sensed something and looked towards the door.
He adjusted his collar, walked over and opened the door. Surprisingly, an unexpected person was waiting there, Gao Qiu, a fighter from the Wilderness School.
He said, "Senior Gao?"
Gao Qiu didn't have any bandages on his body. Apart from the fact that he was missing a hand, his mental state seemed no different from when he went on stage yesterday.
He said solemnly, "Student Chen, I learned your address from the cruise ship management, and I came here specifically to thank you. If it weren't for you yesterday, I would have died there."
As he said that, he threw something over.
Chen Chuan grabbed it, unfolded it, and saw that it was a polished, round, and smooth fang pendant.
"If you are interested in practicing in the wilderness, you can come to us with this thing. The people of the wilderness sect will welcome you."
Chen Chuan nodded, and he looked at Gao Qiu's empty right arm again. After losing an arm, the Wilderness Clan would not use any implants, so his future combat effectiveness would probably be greatly reduced.
Gao Qiu noticed his gaze, but he was very calm and said, "If we could find the broken bones and reconnect them, they could grow back, but now it seems that it is impossible.
But it doesn't matter. I've fought with all my might. The experience of failure is also a treasure. I will teach it to the younger generations and let them pass it on. The Wilderness School is not just about one person, but everyone. Remember, those who fail will succeed."
He looked aside and said, "It seems someone is here to see you. I'm leaving now. We'll see each other again sometime."
Chen Chuan turned his head and saw Lu Shiqi walking towards him from one end of the cabin corridor. The difference was that after a night, the broken arm had been restored to its original state. It was unknown whether it had been reconnected or replaced with a new one.
The advantage of implants lies here, in some places things can be replaced and implanted through surgery.
This man and Gao Qiu nodded to each other when they passed each other. Although they were opponents in the fighting arena, there was no deep hatred between them.
Lu Shiqi walked up to Chen Chuan and said, "Student Chen, I'm not very good at speaking, but I'm here to thank you on behalf of the company. In the company's words, you've saved the company's assets." He handed over a card. "This is the company's token of appreciation. I hope you can accept it."
Chen Chuan took it and looked at it. It was a gold card from the Wansheng Group. Was it a direct payment this time? The gratitude from the Lushiqi Company seemed very practical.
He put the gold card into his pocket and said, "Then I'll take it."
Seeing that he accepted it, Lu Shiqi said nothing more, nodded to him, and turned away.
Chen Chuan returned to his room and continued packing. At 6:30 in the morning, the four of them left the Rhino Horn Cruise and took a speedboat back to the port. In front of them, Pan Xiaode was eager to try and said, "Classmate Chen, we've never competed before. How about we find a place to compete now?"
Tan Zhi said: "It's not good to be harmonious, we have to compete."
Pan Xiaode held out a fist. "We fighters communicate with our fists. Only after being punched by our friends can we develop true friendship."
Chen Chuanxin said, "It seems I have to use my fists next time."
He said sincerely, "I want to fight with Pan, but the timing might be hard to manage. I've already made an appointment with the teacher, and I can't keep him waiting. Let's make an appointment another day."
Pan Xiaode agreed. He felt that his level was similar to Chen Chuan's, so the fight would definitely last an hour and a half. If it was a draw, it might take the whole day. It was really hard to control the time. Besides, he couldn't let Qi Huixin not participate in the fight with Chen Chuan, right? So he had to find a good time.
He said regretfully, "Then we'll have to wait until next time."
After parting with the two, Chen Chuan took Tan Zhi's car back. This time he did not go back to Xuangong Building, but asked Tan Zhi to take him directly to Teacher Zheng's house.
He said goodbye to Tan Zhi in front of the house and went inside. He met Teacher Zheng and greeted him. Teacher Zheng smiled and said, "Did you have a good day off?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "There are many surprises."
Teacher Zheng said, "That's good. You young people should be nervous when you need to be nervous, and relax when you need to relax. Well, today's training is still about defense. Follow me."
Chen Chuan followed him into the training room. After exercising for a while, he saw that Zheng Tongtong was already ready.
The previous two training sessions were about parrying heavy swords and light swords respectively. However, this time, Zheng Tongtong held two swords in each hand. After she reminded them, they realized that the two swords were one light and one heavy, but they looked exactly the same on the outside. Even if they were told in advance, it would be difficult to tell them apart.
It stands to reason that when a person carries two knives of different weights, there would be slight differences in the center of gravity and pace, but Zheng Tongtong could not see any difference when he was moving.
Just from this one move, it can be seen that her strength level is extremely high, otherwise she would not be able to achieve this level. If he could also do this, then Xiong Jianyi would not be able to judge the next move by observing his movement rhythm.
Zheng Tongtong waved his two knives and said, "Brother, are you ready?"
Chen Chuan raised the knife, stood firmly, and nodded.
Zheng Tongtong didn't say anything, he just leaned forward, picked up two knives and slashed at him in turn.
Because Chen Chuan only had a knife to use for defense, Zheng Tongtong's pace was slow at the beginning, but as he adapted, the pace became faster and faster. For a while, the field was filled with flying knives and continuous clanging sounds.
He soon discovered that such resistance was extremely difficult, because he not only had to change his strength, but also increased his speed. Often, he had just released the heavy sword when the light sword came up and chopped him down, or he could barely block the light sword, but had to busy changing his strength to resist the next heavy blow.
He needs to change the rhythm reasonably between the two different coping methods and respond quickly and timely, especially since he is standing still and cannot dodge, which makes it even more difficult.
This time, it took him two days to adapt.
On the third day, Teacher Zheng called him over and taught him a set of breathing techniques to adjust and change the strength.
And told him that he would beat the rhythm with his palms next to him, and every time he struck, Chen Chuan had to deal with the light sword in the same way as he dealt with the heavy sword, and deal with the heavy sword in the same way as he dealt with the light sword. And when he stopped striking, he needed to go back to the normal way, and there couldn't be any confusion.
There was no need to worry about the collision caused by the reverse use of force, because Zheng Tongtong would change the force one step ahead. If the method he used was correct, there would be no problem.
In fact, it is okay to simply deal with the changes in the sword slash, but when it is necessary to cooperate with Teacher Zheng's high-five, it becomes very difficult because it will disrupt his rhythm.
The clapping sounds were sometimes sudden, sometimes slow, sometimes only intermittent, and sometimes suddenly continuous, and kept changing, and they were specifically made when the rhythm of his breathing changed. If you were not careful, everything would be messed up easily.
But even so, Zheng Tongtong didn't make even a single mistake, and her breathing could change at any time, which was quite amazing. It seemed that she was already very familiar with this kind of change.
Another two days passed before Chen Chuan finally grasped the trick of this breathing method and was gradually able to keep up with the changes in rhythm.
However, this was just the beginning. Teacher Zheng then changed his method and told him that when he hit the table with his fists, he should block it with the same method as he would with a heavy knife, and when he hit with his palms, he should block it with the same method as he would with a light knife.
Through repeated training of this kind of changes, Chen Chuan's defensive skills are constantly improving, but this is only the basics, because at this point, all the attacks are just horizontal cuts.
So on the sixth day, Teacher Zheng asked Zheng Tongtong to add changes in the strength of the knife.
This is actually more difficult than dealing with heavy swords and light swords, because before contact, it is impossible to judge what the force is like, and it can only change at the moment of contact. In addition, Zheng Tongtong's two swords are flying back and forth, and the sword moves are constantly changing, which tests his ability to deal with it.
This time, it took me three full days to barely catch up.
Seeing that he had adapted and that it hadn't taken him long, Teacher Zheng was quite satisfied. He said, "You've made rapid progress. You've already mastered the basics of defensive techniques. This month's training will stop here. Next month, we'll start the next phase, and I'll teach you how to attack."
Chen Chuan nodded. These days, although it seemed that all the alienated tissues in his body were sore and tense after he went home every day, the feeling of growing every day was very good and fulfilling.
He had only experienced this feeling of continuous improvement when he first started learning martial arts from Yu Gang. It was really a long time since he had experienced this feeling.
In addition to Teacher Zheng's dedicated teaching, the sparring partner Zheng Tongtong also took every step very seriously. Such a good sparring partner is really rare.
He expressed his sincere gratitude: "Thank you, Teacher Zheng, and thank you, Senior Zheng."
Teacher Zheng smiled and said, "You're welcome. I'm a good student, so I can teach you easily. You can also think about it more on your own. What the teacher teaches you is just teaching you. Only when you understand it yourself can it be yours."
Chen Chuan said hello, said goodbye to Teacher Zheng and his daughter, and then left Teacher Zheng's house. He arrived at the station and before he got on the tram, he received a message from the Jiepian Processing Bureau.
This is to inform him that the period of Yaoguang exposure is scheduled for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Let him choose a time by himself and the processing bureau will arrange it for him.
He thought about it and realized that the day after tomorrow was a holiday, so he would set it for tomorrow. He quickly confirmed the time and submitted it directly through the boundary certificate.
Just five minutes later, another voicemail arrived, showing the source was Canglong Company. After accessing it, a voice rang in my ears:
"Hello, Mr. Chen. I'm Yin Fang, Assistant to Director Sun of Canglong Company. We've received an application for luminous illumination from the Processing Bureau with your name on it. According to Director Sun's instructions, we'll be giving you an additional three hours of allotment per month. The receipt has been mailed, so please check it."
