"Thank you for your praise, Mr. Qi. You are in better health now." Long Yi walked slowly towards Mr. Qi, speaking as he walked.
At this time, there were three people standing next to Mr. Qi. In addition to the two personal guards, there was a tall, resolute-faced middle-aged man standing three meters behind him. The military rank on his shoulder was three stars, the rank of general.
It must be Qi Zhixing who rushed back from the army, and also Qi Yinghao's father.
"Mr. Qi called me here in such a hurry, I guess there is something wrong?" Long Yi said with a smile after entering the Qi family mansion.
"Haha," Old Qi laughed heartily, "Can't I just go find Master Long and catch up on the past if I have nothing to do? That's right, Master Long is now the new lord of the Central Plains, so it's normal for him to dislike an old man like me."
Long Yi laughed in silence. It seemed that Old Qi was still upset about him breaking Qi Yinghao's legs.
No matter how hopeless Qi Yinghao was, he was still his grandson. After Long Yi broke one of his legs, it was like slapping the entire Qi family in the face in public.
But since Mr. Qi can joke about it openly, it proves that he no longer intends to care about this matter.
"It seems like he needs something from me. Otherwise, why would he not even care about his own grandson's broken leg?"
Long Yi seemed to be lost in thought. After taking his seat, he couldn't help but look at the middle-aged man sitting next to Mr. Qi, Qi Zhixing, who was dressed in a military uniform.
Elder Qi got straight to the point and said cheerfully, "Master Long guessed correctly. I asked you to come here this time because I do have a favor to ask of you."
"Well, just say it directly." Long Yi said calmly.
Mr. Qi stopped talking, but Qi Zhixing beside him slowly spoke:
"Master Long, rumors are circulating throughout the four provinces of the Central Plains that you are a master of martial arts, boasting a record of defeating Heavenly Realm masters in just three moves. Is this true?"
Long Yi's eyes were filled with indifference, and he said with a half-smile: "It's all just exaggeration in the martial arts world. But what does my strength have to do with you, Mr. Qi?"
"This... Master Long, could you show it to me?" Qi Zhixing obviously didn't expect Long Yi to answer like this, and could only ask with an embarrassed look on his face.
Long Yi smiled slightly. He had always wanted to find an opportunity to intimidate the Qi family. Now that it was delivered to his doorstep, he naturally agreed without hesitation.
"Mr. Qi, there are many ways to demonstrate. If I just randomly perform a set of boxing moves, it won't be very convincing. I see you have a gun on your waist. How about using it as a prop?"
Qi Zhixing was slightly stunned. He couldn't think of how Long Yi would demonstrate his strength with a gun. Could it be that he was demonstrating his marksmanship?
But what the army has the most is sharpshooters. If Long Yi is only good at shooting, then he will be greatly disappointed.
"Master Long, you may have misunderstood. I wanted you to demonstrate your strength, not your marksmanship."
Long Yi remained noncommittal and said calmly, "I didn't say I was going to show off my marksmanship. Now shoot at me and see if I can take the bullet easily."
"Ah? Master Long, this is a real thing on my waist, and it's a large-caliber revolver." Qi Zhixing exclaimed in surprise.
This gun is definitely among the top three in terms of power among pistols. If you are hit by it, it will cause a wound as big as a bowl. If it hits a vital part, there is a 99% chance that you will die on the spot!
Long Yi repeated, "It's okay, I still have this confidence, shoot."
Qi Zhixing was worthy of his military background. Seeing Long Yi's firm attitude, he no longer hesitated and directly took out the pistol from the holster.
"Well, Master Long is indeed very courageous!"
He aimed the gun at Long Yi's left leg, so that even if Long Yi couldn't take the bullet, he would not die on the spot.
Qi Ke, who was standing by, was so frightened that her face turned pale. She quickly stepped aside, covering her pretty face with her hands, and only dared to take a sneak peek through her fingers.
"Master Long, I will shoot when you are ready." Qi Zhixing gripped the gun tightly and said solemnly.
"Shoot!" Long Yi sat calmly on the chair, without any tension on his face.
"Mr. Long, you must be careful!" Qi Ke warned in a low voice, feeling as if his heart was being tugged at.
Not far away, Elder Qi's expression was also more solemn than ever before. He said sternly, "Master Long, we are all family. Don't be arrogant. Do what you can."
Even though there were rumors that Long Yi caught a bullet with his bare hands at the Zhulu Conference, it was just hearsay after all. Now that they saw this scene with their own eyes, they couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Bang!
As Qi Zhixing pulled the trigger, a large-caliber 12mm bullet whizzed out, tearing through the air with sonic booms.
At the critical moment, dazzling sparks suddenly appeared half a meter in front of Long Yi. The bullet seemed to be embedded in the steel plate, instantly losing all kinetic energy and strangely suspended in the air.
The next second, Long Yi actually stretched out his right hand, grabbed the bullet floating in the air, and played with it like a toy.
"This... I know that those above the Heavenly Realm are not afraid of bullets, but I never thought that it would be so easy to make bullets hover in the air." Boss Qi was horrified, his old hands trembling slightly with shock.
"It's incredible!" Qi Ke was shocked, but also felt relieved for Long Yi, and her pretty face flushed.
Qi Zhixing was the most deeply touched. He was the only one who knew the power of this pistol, so when he saw that Long Yi could take the bullet so easily, he was naturally shocked.
He secretly thanked his lucky stars that he did not offend this martial arts expert because of his son's affairs, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Long Yi said calmly, "I wonder if the strength I have demonstrated can impress you all?"
"Of course, of course!" Qi Zhixing put it back to his waist, bowed respectfully to Long Yi and said:
"Master Long, I won't beat around the bush. I invited you here because I want you to be the chief instructor of the Red Dragon Special Forces!"
"Chief Instructor Red Dragon?" Long Yi was slightly stunned, as if he had heard this name somewhere before.
After a moment, he laughed in his heart. Wasn't this the Red Dragon Special Forces what Xu Tiancheng had been talking about before?
That guy boasted to everyone that he had become a Red Dragon candidate and that he would definitely achieve the highest achievements in the army in the future.
Little did they know that Long Yi was directly invited by the military district commander to be the chief instructor of Red Dragon, without even having to take any assessment.
"Master Long, it was Commander Liao of the Beijing Military Region who recommended you as the chief instructor. He said you previously led the Tianlong Brigade to victory in an international martial arts competition, winning first place..."
After Qi Zhixing's detailed explanation, Long Yi finally understood the whole story and the specific situation of the Red Dragon Brigade.
The military districts in each province of Longguo will train their own special forces brigade. The one in the capital is called the Tianlong Special Forces Brigade, and the one in Yandu is called the Honglong Special Forces Brigade.
