Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 11: Protecting the Shortcomings
It was early spring, in the evening.
Because there was no one in the intermediate and advanced martial arts training grounds on the left and right sides, the primary martial arts training ground looked particularly empty, and even a small gust of wind could bring a hint of chill.
Tang Zheng and this group of children were in a stalemate for a long time...
long time……
In at least a quarter of an hour, the group of children surrounded Tang Zheng, and none of them left.
Just as he was thinking about how to get out, a cold and delicate voice rang out from the other side of the martial arts training ground: "What are you still doing here? Why don't you go back?"
Walking over from the sidelines was a long-haired girl who looked a few years older than Tang Xiaotang.
Her round face and porcelain doll-like eyebrows were very similar to those of the little girl with a bell around her neck. However, on her slender back, she was carrying a heavy sword that was totally inconsistent with her appearance!
Every step she took raised a circle of dust from the ground.
"Ah! Teacher Meng!"
"It's over. We've been discovered by Teacher Meng."
"Hello, Teacher Meng. Goodbye, Teacher Meng. We are going home now."
The group of naughty kids seemed to be very afraid of this "Teacher Meng".
Except for Xiao Lingling, the other children scattered like birds and beasts. Tang Zheng, who was surrounded just now, showed his face as the children dispersed.
"Sister Fenghua!" Little Bell Loli pounced over and hugged the heavy sword girl's thigh.
This girl named Fenghua does not seem to be that stunning and beautiful at all. There is not a single worldly air about her and there is even a hint of childishness between her eyebrows.
Of course, the heavy sword behind her completely destroyed that innocent feeling.
Meng Fenghua squatted down gently and helped Xiao Lingling adjust the bell around her neck: " I heard your bell ring just now. Are you okay?"
"Hehe." Little Bell smiled mischievously, turned around and stuck out her tongue and made a face at Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng sighed in his heart.
Confucius once said, behind every naughty child, there must be a naughty parent.
Therefore, the one who is causing trouble now is probably that bear parent.
But if you ask yourself, if he also had a sister who looked like Xiao Lingling, he probably wouldn't be far from the evil path of Mr. Xiong...
Meng Fenghua put the bells in order before slowly standing up.
The sword on her back, which was half her length, did not affect her movements of squatting and standing up at all!
"Did my sister bully you?" Meng Fenghua frowned and looked at Tang Zheng.
"No, no!" No matter how shameless Tang Zheng was, he would not admit that he was bullied by a little girl of seven or eight years old.
"Then you bullied her?" He immediately changed the subject.
"ah?"
"Tell me! Why did you bully her?" Tang Zheng did not deny it, so Meng Fenghua took it as an admission.
“…”
"Feng Ling is so cute, yet you still want to bully her. Are you still a human being?!" Meng Fenghua took off the heavy sword on his back and slammed it to the ground.
It was really smashed!
Originally, when Tang Zheng gathered the first ray of star power, only one piece of the stone slab was broken. This time, a whole row of them broke with a series of crackling sounds.
There is murderous intent!
Tang Zheng backed away while waving his hands: "No, no, no, I'm cute too... Ah, what I meant was that I didn't mean it... That's not right... In fact, I didn't bully her at all!"
boom!
The sound of a heavy sword breaking through the air came towards him with a fierce sense of oppression!
Meng Fenghua pointed his sword at Tang Zheng: "Stop talking nonsense, show the stars!"
At the same time, behind her, a illusory human-shaped star image rose up.
A bright star is twinkling in the constellation!
After Tang Zheng came to this world, he had seen all kinds of constellations, weapons, animals, plants, daily necessities, and he had also seen the blood sea corpse king rising behind Azhi. However, this kind of human-shaped constellation behind Meng Fenghua was the first time Tang Zheng had seen it.
"Say it again, bright, star, elephant!" Meng Fenghua's long hair moved without wind. Tang Zheng seemed to see the anger level rising in her cold black pupils.
"Alas..." Tang Zheng's smile faded and he took two steps back.
It seems that this time, I really need to take deep breaths and warm up.
Since the other party is clearly here to protect his shortcomings, even if he says that he has no astrological signs, it is estimated that his "defense is ineffective."
It just so happened that he had just condensed the first ray of star power.
It seems like it would be a good idea to send someone over to fight with him?
Whether good or bad, everything can be seen as a good thing!
The heart of a funny person is so strong!
The two men stood still on the martial arts training ground.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the two people, stretching their shadows very long.
Meng Fenghua's pupils became even colder, which didn't match her baby face at all, and her heavy sword was covered with a layer of faint silver light, just like the scattered silver glow of moonlight.
"Bright, stars..." Meng Fenghua asked Tang Zhengliang to look at the stars for the third time. However, before she could say the word "star", she felt her eyes blurred and it seemed that the person in front of her had almost disappeared!
Of course, people will not really disappear.
It was just that Tang Zheng flowed that ray of star power into his feet, and his movement speed suddenly increased!
Meng Fenghua only felt a gust of wind blowing past her ears, and when she looked again, Tang Zheng's figure just passed by her...
However, after just a glance, the figure disappeared again.
Tang Zheng had already lowered his body and chopped at Meng Fenghua's lotus feet with a knife!
Anyone's ankle is a very vulnerable part. If you hit the ankle with a knife, as long as the speed is fast enough, it is easy to knock the person down.
Originally, Tang Zheng wanted to transfer the star power from his feet to his left hand to complete this attack...
However, after using it, he found that the speed of the flow of star power was not something he could control at all!
When he had reached the fighting position and was about to make a move, the star power only slowly flowed to his knees.
"That's nonsense." Tang Zheng had no choice but to confront it head-on.
It turns out that practice makes perfect!
If he doesn't have the opportunity for actual combat, his use of star power will probably remain at the same level as He Tian Meng for a long time!
clang!
Meng Fenghua is a one-star warrior, and his body and star veins have been strengthened to a certain extent.
Therefore, Tang Zheng's hand knife, which had no star power attached to it, chopped Meng Fenghua's ankle, but he himself was shocked, which was similar to the feeling when he faced the viper man in Fengmen Village.
"Hah!" Meng Fenghua seized the opportunity and swung the heavy sword!
At this moment, Tang Zheng's body posture was just in a low position!
Meng Fenghua held the middle sword in his hand and smashed it towards his back with a heavy fighting spirit!
"Oh no." Tang Zheng's heart sank.
The spine is very important to the human body and must not be injured!
But at this moment, Meng Fenghua suddenly realized this.
When she was about to hit Tang Zheng, she raised her wrist slightly... She deliberately put on a tough attitude in Tangjiabao for the sake of survival. If she hurt someone because of it, it was not her original intention!
However, just this small move of her letting go gave Tang Zheng space to move!
boom!
The heavy sword with silver light did not hit Tang Zheng, but fell heavily to the ground.
"How is that possible?" A hint of surprise flashed in Meng Fenghua's eyes.
When she regained consciousness, she felt a breath coming from very close behind her...
Before she could figure out the situation, she felt a huge force rushing towards her left knee like a tidal wave!
The force is completely different from the attack on the ankle just now!
Meng Fenghua's body suddenly lost balance and almost fell to the side!
In a hurry, she thrust her sword forward to support her body...
However, this action is crucial!
With just this subconscious supporting action, she lost the ability to fight back!
The next moment, Tang Zheng's knife hand was already across her snow-white neck.
…
The sun has set.
The two people remained in this position for a long time without speaking.
After an unknown amount of time, Tang Zheng slowly took his hand away from Meng Fenghua's neck: "If you are strong enough, you can use the inertia of falling to swing the sword back..."
Meng Fenghua no longer knew how to look at Tang Zheng appropriately.
"You didn't use the star power." Tang Zheng felt very sorry about this. He originally wanted to fight a few moves with a real one-star warrior, but the opponent seemed to have not used the star power at all.
"Because you didn't look at the stars." Meng Fenghua was not a child. She certainly wouldn't treat the battle in the Tangjiabao martial arts training ground as a life-and-death fight.
"Thank you for letting me go." Tang Zheng smiled and snapped his fingers, "Otherwise, I would have been seriously injured."
"You... figured it out?" Meng Fenghua was surprised at first glance.
She just raised her hand slightly, the movement was so small that it was almost invisible to the naked eye!
How is it possible that someone has such keen eyesight that he could actually notice such a subtle movement of her letting the water go?
"Big brother, I didn't expect you to be so hard to bully. Even my sister couldn't bully you!" Little Bell came over again and rubbed against Tang Zheng like a little animal.
"You still said..." Meng Fenghua looked at Xiao Lingling, and his icy eyes softened all of a sudden when facing Tang Zheng.
"Wait, what did you call me just now?" Tang Zheng quickly interrupted Meng Fenghua and looked at Xiao Lingling.
Although it was a good thing to have an actual combat opportunity, but when he thought about the cause of this battle, he really wanted to cry but had no tears!
If a grown man bullies a seven or eight-year-old child, how will he face it if this gets out?
"I call you big brother!" Little Lingling raised her head and looked at Tang Zheng with a sweet smile, making her little face round and plump.
"Be good, call me again."
“Big brother!”
"Call again."
"Big brother~~~"
"Again……"
Meng Fenghua stared in amazement as Tang Zheng actually squatted on the ground and started playing with the little bell.
The night wind in early spring is still a little chilly.
But for some reason, Meng Fenghua did not ask Xiao Lingdang to go back.
"Then, Little Red Riding Hood yelled, 'You are not my grandmother, you... you are actually a wolf.' Then, she raised her sword, and... just like that, she chopped off the wolf's head..."
Meng Fenghua became more and more fascinated as she listened to Tang Zheng's strange stories.
Not far away, a shadow was floating.
The two people who had been standing aside and watching for a long time looked at each other in the night.
"Is he the teacher that our uncle hired for us at a high price?" One of them looked skeptical. "How can a teacher have such skills? Even Feng Hua is no match for him?"
"Feng Hua didn't use any star power at all! Otherwise... she, who has two stars in one palace, wouldn't be that easy to deal with !" The other one frowned and said in a low voice, "I just came back today, so I don't know the situation very well."
"Could this person be a spy from Hidden Blue Villa and want to harm our Tang Family Castle?"
"I don't know. But the teacher's reception will be held tomorrow. We will know who is the real teacher and who is the fake teacher after a try!"
