Chapter 22 Senior Zhang (1)
The championship of precision shooting undoubtedly fell on Zhang Qi's head, and the subsequent applied shooting was also flawless. With perfect scores, Zhang Qi once again left the others behind by several ways, and there was no pressure to win the championship.
"Monk Hua, what's the matter? Do you want me to introduce you to someone with better calligraphy?" After the competition, Xiang Lian couldn't wait to run to Hua Shang and started to show off.
Hua Shang, who understood his character, did not answer the question, but said to Zhang Qi who was drinking water: "Hello, my name is Hua Shang."
"Damn it, Monk Hua, it's too late for you to try to establish a relationship through the back door now." Seeing that Hua Shang ignored him, Xiang Lian was not discouraged and tried to belittle him in various ways.
Zhang Qi stood up, performed a fist-holding ceremony commonly used by warriors, which was different from ordinary people, and said: "Zhang Qi."
"Huh?" Hua Shang understood the fist-holding ceremony, and his heart immediately stirred, "This is a etiquette handed down from the Spring and Autumn Period. Didn't Master say that few people know it now? Moreover, he actually used it.
, it’s a senior saluting a junior, isn’t it too arrogant?”
Regardless of whether Zhang Qi is arrogant or not, Hua Shang still remembers what his master said. Those who understand this etiquette are not simple. At least they are from martial arts families or martial arts inheritors with guidance from their ancestors.
So after seeing this gesture, Hua Shang's expression changed, but he couldn't agree with the way Zhang Qi considered his senior to salute. He was older than Zhang Qi in terms of age, so it was strange that he felt comfortable.
Hua Shang, who felt unhappy, returned a salute to Zhang Qi, which was also the salute that a senior salutes to a junior.
Ever since Zhang Qi reached Xiantian, he rarely performed junior salutes. Even with those who were higher than him, as long as their cultivation levels were not as high as Xiantian, he could interact with them as equals. After coming to modern times, he had never seen anyone practicing martial arts.
, I have seen a few martial arts, such as Hua Shang in front of me.
The ancient etiquette he performed was just a test to see if Hua Shang knew this etiquette. What he didn't expect was that Hua Shang actually knew it, and he didn't realize that he was the senior of Zhang Qi.
If this were Zhang Qi's world, it would be strange if he didn't cut him with a sword. A boy who has never developed his true energy actually dares to challenge him. He simply doesn't know how to live or die.
But this is modern times, and Hua Shang is also the first person Zhang Qi has met who knows this etiquette. At least he can be sure that martial arts still exists, and it saves Zhang Qi from going to Wudang Shaolin and other famous sects for confirmation.
"Ignorance!" Just when Hua Shang was still slandering Zhang Qi for being self-righteous, Zhang Qi bent his wrist and snapped his fingers twice. Hua Shang suddenly felt pain on both sides of his shoulders.
"You..." Just when he was about to yell, Hua Shang thought of Zhang Qi's two fingers in the air just now, and sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.
Realizing that he had met an expert, Hua Shang immediately wanted to apologize for his recklessness just now, but he found that he could not move his hands.
"Digging acupuncture points to cut off the pulse! How is this possible? Didn't Master say that no one in the Mowu era could tap acupuncture points?" Hua Shang became panicked, and his eyes immediately changed when he looked at Zhang Qi, becoming confused and reverent. This is acupuncture points, legend has it.
The point in the hole.
"What are you looking at? Didn't your master teach you the rules?" A person who has never practiced Qi actually dares to confront senior Zhang Qi. Considering that the rules may be different in different worlds, Zhang Qi will not make a big fight.
, but a small punishment is absolutely indispensable.
Hua Shang now did not dare to be dissatisfied with the condescension in Zhang Qi's words. Instead, he felt that it was appropriate and even apologized in the face of everyone's surprised eyes.
"Senior, please forgive me. I haven't seen much of the world. Please forgive me for any offence." It's such a trick. According to ancient records, this can only be done by top masters. As for how high-level and elegant it is, it is not possible.
I don’t know, but calling senior pretending to be a grandson is definitely correct.
Hua Shang's approach suited Zhang Qi's taste. Since he recognized his identity as a martial artist, he had to follow the rules of the martial arts. Moreover, it was right to count him as his senior. In the previous life of Chen Kingdom, the time was almost 1800 AD.
, you can just be his grandfather’s senior.
"Come with me, I have something to ask you." Zhang Qi told Hua Shang unceremoniously.
Only then did the people on the side react and interrupt, "Aqi, do you know Monk Hua?" Xiang Lian knew that Hua Shang had practiced martial arts, so he thought Zhang Qi knew Hua Shang's master.
Focusing on training Hua Shang, Zhang Qi didn't expect that there were a group of modern people next to him who didn't know anything about his martial arts rules. Under everyone's questioning eyes, he tried to explain, but the stupidest one didn't know how to say it.
"Well, there is an old relationship between Senior Zhang and my master." Seeing this, Hua Shang clasped his hands and stood up to help Zhang Qi. He thought beautifully in his heart, "It would be great if there is an old relationship."
"Oh." Everyone showed their original expressions. Zhang Qi and Hua Shang knew martial arts. Everyone present knew this. They were not surprised when they heard this. Instead, they were more curious about the title of senior in Hua Shang's mouth.
This is rarely seen in modern times.
Looking over with doubtful eyes, Zhang Qi glanced, and Hua Shang stood up knowingly, "People in the martial arts world pay more attention to seniority. Senior Zhang, his seniority is higher than mine."
"Haha, Aqi, then I am the same generation as you, Hua Shang will have to call me senior from now on." After hearing this, Xiang Lian happily prepared to take advantage.
Sun Mi was also smiling and ready to interrupt, but Hua Shang was immediately unhappy. If Zhang Qi couldn't beat him, even if he is a grandfather, don't let him call someone who is one or two years younger than him.
"None of you are considered martial artists, not even this kid." Zhang Qi spoke this time before Hua Shang could explain.
Hearing what he meant, everyone nodded in understanding. After Zhang Qi refused them to follow, they watched Zhang Qi and Hua Shang leave.
Back in the hotel room, Zhang Qi began to ask for information about modern martial arts, and Hua Shang told him everything he knew as if he was pouring beans.
It turns out that according to historical records, martial arts were still very powerful before the Five Dynasties Rebellion, but something seemed to have happened during the Five Dynasties Rebellion. Later, people's sense of true energy became weaker and weaker, and fewer and fewer people were suitable for practicing martial arts.
In modern times, it is even rarer.
Of course, there are martial arts in modern times, but they are mainly based on martial arts. There are only two or three kittens who can know Qi, and their cultivation level is also quite weak. As for things like acupoints in the air, it has become a legendary method. Hua
Shang even dares to guarantee that no one in the world can do it.
"There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings. Haha, you dare to call yourself a warrior. In the era of the end of martial arts, this is the tragedy of us martial arts practitioners." After listening to this, Zhang Qi said with emotion, expressing his displeasure with Hua Shang and others.
