After hanging up the phone, Lou Cheng was still confused. Why was he sent to Pingjiang City for no reason?
One worrying thought after another popped up in his mind, what kind of human traffickers, pyramid schemes, does Mr. Shi have another "part-time job"?
Will there be any danger in going there?
Cai Zongming saw that Lou Cheng looked wrong, so he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Chengzi, go out and have a smoke."
After thinking about it, Lou Cheng followed him out and came to the living balcony. He leaned on the railing with his hands and looked down at the courtyard of Building 7. It was still early for the lights to be turned off. There were many students coming and going, some carrying hot water bottles, and some holding water bottles.
Some were holding books, some were holding supper, and some were in pairs, lingering outside the gate under the bright eyes of the dormitory supervisor.
The dormitories in Songda all form their own micro-communities, with four units in one building just surrounding a courtyard, with flower beds, street lights, and table tennis tables. The second unit of the building where they are located happens to be facing the gate.
"What's the matter, Orange, is something wrong?" Cai Zongming took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth without lighting it.
Yesterday, Lou Cheng told his roommates that he had started to quit smoking. Cai Zongming regarded it as a joke and made a mean comment during a video chat with his girlfriend. Then he was shamefully forced to quit smoking by his girlfriend. He said he was a good example to follow Lou Cheng!
Lou Cheng decided to reveal a little bit: "Love Sage, uh, forget it, let's call you Mouth King, lest you keep nagging, didn't I sign up for the special training of the martial arts club before? Half of it was for chasing, you know, half of it.
When I was standing on the yin and yang pile, I discovered that I had the talent of keeping quiet, and then Old Man Shi also discovered this and planned to focus on cultivating me."
Cai Zongming's mouth twitched:
"Chengzi, if you don't brag, we're still good friends."
"Really." Lou Cheng tried his best to make his eyes look sincere.
Cai Zongming stared at him and said, "Really?"
"Really!" Lou Cheng's tone was extremely determined.
"Okay, I can't tell, Chengzi." Cai Zongming knew Lou Cheng's personality and finally believed it. He reached out and patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Wealth and wealth, don't forget each other! If you can become a martial arts club in the future
I am the pillar of support, and if I say it, it will give me more face. It seems that there is a saying that is right, it is easy for people to be quiet when they are stupid and simple-minded."
"Can't you say something nicer?" Lou Cheng glanced at him.
"Yes, yes, people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured. I have eyes but cannot see Mount Tai. Brother Lou Cheng, no, Uncle Chengzi, let me hold your thigh!" Cai Zongming said in an exaggerated performance.
The two laughed for a while, and Lou Cheng continued: "Old man Shi called me just now out of nowhere and asked me to book a train ticket and go to Pingjiang City with him tomorrow night."
"Pingjiang?" Cai Zongming asked subconsciously, "The capital of Shanbei Province?"
"Yeah, I don't know what to do, so I'm a little worried." Lou Cheng sighed.
"Old man Shi was personally invited by the principal, so there should be no problem. Besides, Cheng Zi, you have no appearance, no talent, no money, why are you abducting you? Maybe it's because of the University Martial Arts Association, Shanbei University
In Pingjiang." Cai Zongming damaged the building.
"It makes sense." Lou Cheng nodded.
Could it be that Mr. Shi wanted to investigate the details of Shanbei University, the champion of last year’s University Martial Arts Tournament, so he took his cheap disciple to enjoy a trip at public *expense*?
But why do you have to pay for the tickets yourself...
Seeing Lou Cheng heaving a sigh of relief, Cai Zongming suddenly changed the subject and said with a lewd smile: "I heard that some perverted old men are particularly obsessed with the bodies of children or young people of the same gender because their bodies have aged and they want to reminisce about the past. , tell me, will Old Man Shi..."
"Bah!" Lou Cheng almost vomited just thinking about Cai Zongming's description, but he felt a little more fearful and worried for no reason.
What if?
Don't be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst case...
Cai Zongming laughed so hard that he laughed, and then said scornfully: "But Chengzi, don't worry, even if Old Man Shi is a pervert, his target should still be Lin Que. I won't take a fancy to someone with both talent and appearance." your."
"Thank you for your comfort!" Lou Cheng said through gritted teeth.
After being interrupted by Cai Zongming, he regained his mood. He washed his face with the hot water left in the bottle, soaked his feet, then brushed his teeth and went to bed. He didn't dare to turn on the computer, fearing that he would be tempted by this little *bitch* and not want to sleep.
Lying down, taking out his mobile phone, Lou Cheng went straight to QQ without even browsing the forum.
"Let me tell you a piece of gossip." Lou Cheng gave Yan Zheke a laughing expression.
After dozens of seconds, Yan Zheke replied: "What gossip? From high school?"
"No, no, I just returned to the dormitory after class and found that those guys had a social gathering with a girl in the dormitory tonight, from the Chinese Department, Guo Qing and the others!" Lou Cheng considered his tone and vaguely mentioned that he did not participate in the social gathering.
Yan Zheke made a "dumbfounded" expression: "What a coincidence? How did you get to know Guo Qing's dormitory?"
"Lao Qiu, our dormitory, saw someone writing a phone number for the girls' dormitory asking for friendship on the classroom table. They were afraid it was a prank, so they changed the last number and replaced it with 32 from our dormitory 302. It turned out that the dormitory opposite was Guo Qing and his friends. " Lou Cheng said exactly as he was, sharing this matter.
"It feels like the two of you are destined to be in the dormitory, so they just agreed to the friendship?" Yan Zheke asked enthusiastically.
Lou Cheng responded with a snickering expression: "Maybe it's because I just entered the school in my freshman year. Everything is new and curious about everything. I am also interested in trying this kind of random friendship. By my sophomore year, I have seen a lot of things. Yes, it will probably be difficult."
"Yes." Yan Zheke made a thoughtful expression with his hands crossed and his chin held, "If we meet in the dormitory, I will probably agree. It's quite interesting and fun."
"By the way, it is said that Guo Qing has a crush on our dormitory, Lao Qiu!" Lou Cheng revealed important gossip.
"Ah?" Yan Zheke said with eyes shining, "Really?"
"It is said that several boys in our dormitory can feel it, and their roommates in their dormitory also said so privately." Lou Cheng was not sure.
"Oh oh oh." Yan Zheke responded quickly to the news, "How is this guy Lao Qiu? I have to help Ah Qing check it!"
"The figure is relatively strong, which matches Guo Qing well. He is also more honest and easy to get along with. He is half a study fanatic..." Lou Cheng explained his impression of Lao Qiu.
Of course, Lao Qiu, as the source of dormitory seeds, is a good person who benefits everyone, so this kind of thing is not humane to him.
Based on this gossip, the two chatted happily, and before they knew it, it was half past ten. Lou Cheng endured his heartache and reluctantly said good night, using the excuse that the special training and classes every day were too fulfilling and tiring.
…………
After another sparring session, Old Man Shi announced that today's special training and Saturday's martial arts class were over, and Sunday's special training was postponed to nine o'clock because he had something to do.
This news immediately triggered a burst of cheers. For the members participating in the special training, they could finally sleep for an extra hour!
After a few days of "ordeal", most of the freshmen who were coaxed to join quit, leaving only two who are still persisting, but according to Lou Cheng's observation, it is estimated that they will not be seen next week.
At this time, he saw Yan Zheke and Guo Qing walking over hand in hand, and he didn't need to get close to them like he had in the past few days.
"Chengzi, right? It turns out that the party is in your dormitory." When they met, Guo Qing got straight to the point and said cheerfully, "It feels like a coincidence. By the way, why didn't you participate?"
"I happened to have something to do, so I asked classmate Xiao Ming, haha, Cai Zongming to take my place." Lou Cheng glanced at Yan Zheke and saw that her expression was normal.
Guo Qing didn't ask any more questions, and said with a smile: "We are both members of the martial arts club, and we are also in the dormitory, so we are very destined. Moreover, we had a very pleasant chat when we met last night. Why don't we choose another time?
This weekend or next weekend, the two of us in the dormitory will go out to climb a mountain and sing K? Or find a place with a barbecue for a picnic?"
This girl has an upright temperament and is very capable... Lou Cheng hesitated for a moment before agreeing directly, thinking about what excuses he should find for not going.
Moreover, this kind of matter must be discussed with Lao Qiu, A Qiang and the model workers. You cannot make your own decisions. However, judging from their praise of Zhuang Xiaojun, they will definitely follow suit.
Just when he was hesitating, Guo Qing turned to look at Yan Zheke: "There was Cai Zongming yesterday, so it wouldn't be good if we don't call him next time. Adding Chengzi, there are five boys. It doesn't matter if there are fewer girls.
, but you and Cheng Zi are old classmates and are so familiar with each other, why don’t you go together?”
Yan Zheke said with great interest: "Okay, this is my first time to have a friendship."
"Then it's settled! Let's go out to socialize next week or the week after!" Lou Cheng firmly agreed.
As for the opinions of Aqiang, Xiaoming and the others? Screw them!
Guo Qing's face showed joy: "Okay, let's go back and calculate the time schedule separately to see which day is more suitable."
This conversation was really enjoyable for everyone.
…………
Naturally, a group of boys in their hormonal period agreed to the request for a dormitory room without any hesitation. Cai Zongming was also very interested in similar activities.
Saturday afternoon was a rare rest period for Lou Cheng. He browsed the forums, read novels, chatted with Yan Zheke, and played games online with his roommates who had not gone out. He felt the relaxation and comfort he had not seen for a long time.
At five o'clock, he stuffed a change of clothes into his schoolbag, went out and took the school bus to the city, and then booked a ride online to go to the train station.
"Fortunately, my mother paid 800 more this month, otherwise the money would have been really not enough..." Lou Cheng followed the crowd and walked through the security check step by step, and touched his wallet.
When he arrived near the ticket gate, it was only early six o'clock. He was chatting in the forum and QQ group while waiting for Old Man Shi to arrive.
At 6:40, old man Shi arrived wearing his old cultural shirt and praised Lou Cheng:
"Not bad, very on time."
During the morning practice, Lou Cheng was very focused and didn't ask much about his trip to Pingjiang. When he saw Old Man Shi, the perverted words Cai Zongming said suddenly flashed through his mind, and he involuntarily took a step back and distanced himself.
"What's that look in your face?" Old Shi looked at him doubtfully.
"No, it's nothing, I'm just curious about what to do in Pingjiang." Lou Cheng said dryly.
Damn it, this guy Xiao Ming is talking nonsense, which makes me think a little bit wildly!
"I'll let you know when it's time to know." Old Man Shi didn't care much.
When he arrived at the check-in point and got on the bus and took his seat, Lou Cheng was always uneasy and unusually restrained. He only answered every question asked by Old Man Shi.
Fortunately, the tickets for the two of them were not in the same carriage, so he let out a long sigh of relief.
It only takes an hour and a half from Songcheng to Pingjiang. Lou Cheng arrived at this historic provincial capital after sleeping for a while.
After getting into the taxi, as expected, Old Shi's destination was Shanbei University. Regarding this, Lou Cheng relaxed a little, but soon he tightened his heartstrings again because the two of them stepped into a guest house-like hotel.
If it was a standard room with two beds, a room... Lou Cheng felt a little nervous.
"Two rooms." Old Shi took out the money and documents.
After hearing these words, Lou Cheng finally calmed down and cursed Cai Zongming in his heart for talking nonsense!
"Start at the same time tomorrow." Old Man Shi ordered before entering the room.
After a silent night, Lou Cheng could occasionally hear the heartbreaking cough next door. At 5:40 the next day, he finished washing, left the hotel with Old Man Shi, and entered the campus of Shanbei University.
Arriving at the corner of a large playground, Old Man Shi observed for a moment, pointed at a boy in the distance who was slow-playing and exercising, and said:
"Did you see that person?"
Lou Cheng looked intently and saw that Shanbei University was still submerged in the night scene. Under a ginkgo tree, with yellow leaves flying, a boy wearing a white martial arts uniform was practicing boxing. Because the sky was dark, he could hardly see clearly.
From his appearance, one can only feel the opponent's profound martial arts level from his punches and kicks.
"I saw it." He replied inexplicably.
Did you come to Pingjiang just to see this boy?
Old Man Shi laughed: "His name is Peng Leyun. He entered Shanbei University last year. At that time, he had already achieved the level of becoming a great alchemist and generating qi from his own body. He was an eighth-level professional. He then defeated the president of the Martial Arts Club and led Shanbei University to break through to the semi-final level.
, won the National University Martial Arts Championship.”
"Is he Peng Leyun?" Lou Cheng was told this name several times in the forum, but he never expected to see the real person today.
This man is said to be a genius among geniuses, an outstanding talent who is expected to reach the third level.
Old Man Shi nodded slightly: "He is a direct descendant of the Shang Qing Dynasty and the nephew of Qian Donglou, the current 'Martial Saint'. He has been fond of thinking since he was a child. He often said, 'Martial arts requires learning from nature, and what is nature, physics and biology?'
,So, last year, he shockingly chose to enter university, Department of Physics, Shanbei University."
"My teacher brought you here just to show you that this kind of real genius, a genius with an identity and background, has no slack in martial arts, no matter how much he loves to play, go to bars, or love...
The game will also start on time at 5:30 every day. No matter what day you come, you can see him. You see, we just came here on an impromptu basis and still saw him."
"Such geniuses are working so hard. If you want to catch up with them, how can you do it without suffering more and being more tired?"
Lou Cheng was first surprised by Peng Leyun's background, but was gradually shocked by Old Man Shi's words. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, and if he had been mentally prepared, such a scene might not have had such an effect. However, when he and others suddenly thought of it,
When I came to Shanbei, I still saw Peng Leyun getting up at five o'clock, wearing the stars and the moon, insisting on exercising, and his heart was shaken.
Only when there is comparison can there be enlightenment!
This is a true genius, he is like this, let alone himself?
"I see, I understand, then go back." Old Shi turned around and left with his hands behind his back.
