1957. The first thousand nine hundred and fifty-seven chapters face to face
Cao Yuanqiu was quite speechless about Shi Zhengming's timidity.
But there is no way, who made Shi Zhengming his master?
Even if he is speechless, he must patiently comfort him, so as not to back down and eventually implicate his own bright future.
"We can't avoid it when we are with the Left Courtyard."
Cao Yuanqiu and Shi Zhengming walked side by side, walked upstairs along the steps, and whispered: "Don't worry, the leader is actually easy to talk to, as long as you explain it truthfully."
"......All right."
Shi Zhengming gritted his teeth and suppressed his thoughts of retreating.
It is a knife to stretch your head, and it is a knife to shrink your head. Since you have to face it sooner or later, it is better to just be more careful.
"Remember, don't lie, otherwise I won't be able to help you."
Seeing that Shi Zhengming agreed so simply, Cao Yuanqiu became nervous and quickly warned him again.
"clear."
Shi Zhengming spit out two words dryly.
He seemed to feel embarrassed to be taught by his disciples in this way, and forced himself to say, "I have seen countless storms and waves. I have walked more bridges than you have walked, and I have eaten more salt than you have eaten.
I don't need you to tell me how to do it."
Cao Yuanqiu couldn't help rolling his eyes.
The two arrived on the third floor soon.
At the entrance of the stairs, four tall and cold-looking young warriors stood with their hands behind their backs, their eyes squinted, and their spines were straight, blocking the road leading to the interrogation room.
"I am Cao Yuanqiu, the head of the combat department of the Tianzi Inspection Institute."
Cao Yuanqiu first reported his identity, then pointed at Shi Zhengming and said, "This is my master, Shi Zhengming, the head of the Zhengbo Martial Arts Hall. We have something to do to meet the leader of the alliance and the leader of the left courtyard. Please help me pass on it."
The four warriors' eyes swept over Cao Yuanqiu and Shi Zhengming's faces, and one of them said, "Please wait for Master Cao."
After saying that, the warrior turned around and left, while the other three warriors remained standing still.
Soon, the warrior who went to report the news returned again.
He didn't have any extra nonsense, he just turned his back and said: "Please."
"Thanks."
Cao Yuanqiu nodded in a humble and arrogant manner, and walked towards the interrogation room.
Shi Zhengming was stunned for a moment and quickly followed.
Outside the interrogation room, Cao Yuanqiu and Shi Zhengming finally met the leader of the alliance, Lin Chong, as well as the head of the Tianzi Inspection Institute Zuo Qingcang and the head of the Huangzi Inspection Institute Pei Hong.
"Subordinate Cao Yuanqiu, please pay homage to the leader of the alliance, the leader of the left courtyard, and the leader of the courtyard."
Cao Yuanqiu bowed respectfully and bowed with fists.
Feeling the actual oppression of the three people opposite, Shi Zhengming was trembling and did not dare to raise his head. He also bent down to salute like his apprentice.
"Please get up, two."
A calm and plain voice came into Shi Zhengming's ears.
"Thank you, leader."
Cao Yuanqiu and Shi Zhengming stood up straight at the same time and put down their hands.
Shi Zhengming hid behind Cao Yuanqiu and secretly observed Lin Chong from the corner of his eyes.
So young!
This is the first thought that popped up in Shi Zhengming's mind.
Who would have thought that the famous leader of the Yanhuang Martial Alliance was only in his twenties?
However, the martial arts world has always been the pride of strong people. As long as the strength is strong enough, age does not matter.
Shi Zhengming has heard many rumors about Lin Chong, some of which are true and false, some are belittled and some are exaggerated.
For example, he defeated the entire Baigui Sect with his own strength, and killed Xue Xuanyuan, the leader of Baigui Sect with three punches at the top of Heshan, and ordered Baigui Sect to be eliminated from the ten hidden sects from now on.
He also defeated Wang Hongfu, Wang Mu, Zhao Chenglong, Xu Jing and other four great masters of Danjin at the Yanhuang Martial Arts Conference, replicating the miracle of Du Huaizhen more than a hundred years ago, and showing his invincible posture for the first time.
All of these are difficult to describe.
At this moment, I finally saw the rumored person, how could Shi Zhengming not be excited or frightened?
Heshan, where Lin Chong once fought with Xue Xuanyuan, has become a holy place in the Yanhuang martial arts world. Every day, hundreds of warriors arrive at Bigang City from all directions just to see it with their own eyes.
Shi Zhengming also took his apprentice to Heshan to visit him, but unfortunately he had limited talent and had nothing to gain.
On the contrary, the eldest disciple Cao Yuanqiu seemed to have found his life goal after visiting the ruins of Heshan and traveled thousands of miles to the capital just to follow Lin Zhong's footsteps.
In the end, Cao Yuanqiu succeeded. Not only did he join the Martial Alliance as he wished, he also broke through the bottleneck of martial arts and left Shi Zhengming, who was his master, behind.
Thinking about the past, Shi Zhengming couldn't help but feel mixed emotions.
Cao Yuanqiu knew nothing about Shi Zhengming's psychological activities.
In fact, Cao Yuanqiu was also very nervous.
Lin Chong lived in seclusion, just like a dragon who saw his head but not his tail. So even though Cao Yuanqiu was a cadre of the Wu League, he didn't see him much.
Cao Yuanqiu took a deep breath, removed the distracting thoughts, and said straight to the point: "Leader, we need to report if we have something to do."
"Um?"
Lin Chong's expression remained unchanged and he made a nasal sound of questioning.
Cao Yuanqiu poked Shi Zhengming's arm and woke the latter up from his state of inability to belong to his mind.
Shi Zhengming looked at Cao Yuanqiu with some confusion, not understanding why his apprentice stabbed him.
"Master, tell me quickly, the leader is waiting." Cao Yuanqiu urged in a low voice.
"Ah? OK."
Shi Zhengming suddenly realized and told the truth according to the two of them’s previous plans.
The matter was not complicated, and it took Shi Zhengming less than a few minutes to finish his speech.
"Master Shi means that with the help of Shen Yuxuan, you accepted an investment from the White Eagle Federation?" Lin Zhongxin asked calmly.
"Help? No, it's deception, it's frame-up!"
Shi Zhengming's face turned red and he shook his head like a rattle: "Shen Yuxuan, that guy, was not at ease and clearly wanted to drag me into the water. It's a pity that I was careless at the time and didn't notice his trick in advance."
He was indignant and gritted his teeth. If it weren't for Lin Chong's face, he would have cursed all the eighteen generations of Shen Yuxuan's ancestors.
Lin Chong raised his hand and pressed down, signaling Shi Zhengming to be calm and continued to ask: "Does Shen Yuxuan and the investor make any specific requests?"
Shi Zhengming thought hard for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, they are asking to intervene in the operation of the branch office and be responsible for the recruitment of new students."
When Lin Chong heard this, his calm and deep eyes couldn't help but narrow: "Who is the investor? Have you signed a contract?"
"The investor is a fund company. I also asked what the name is, because I don't know Yangwen, and the person I talked to was Shen Yuxuan, who is the agent of the fund company in Bigang City."
Shi Zhengming said without thinking: "I originally wanted to sign the contract without signing it, but Shen Yuxuan said it was unnecessary. He believed in my integrity and character."
After saying that, Shi Zhengming suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself, with a frustrated face: "I'm so stupid. I should have known for a long time that there will be no pie falling from the sky..."
