Martial Arts Song

Chapter 358 Appearance
"The one who led you and Lu Tianyuan onto this path... Senior Sister, your path is also the 'path of killing'?!"

Hearing what He Xihong said, Chen Qing's eyes narrowed suddenly.

When he was in Qianyang before, he had heard Huang Xunhu mention that when Lu Tianyuan was out looking for his own "way", he was led astray and eventually embarked on the "way of killing".

At that time, he had not yet started practicing spirit, nor had he met Lu Tianyuan, and Huang Xunhu was not dead at that time. For various reasons, he did not have much feeling about this aspect.

Although he has gone through this series of things now, his strength, mentality, and experience are no longer the same as when he was in Qianyang.

But I just kept this in mind, and my understanding of it became clearer and clearer, but I still didn't feel deeply touched.

But now, I heard from my senior sister that she had also embarked on the same path as Lu Tianyuan, and was led onto this path by the same person.

Chen Qing's sense about this matter suddenly became stronger!

"Haha, little shoemaker, you don't have to make that expression. I told you, this is my own choice."

He Xihong looked at Chen Qing's current appearance and chuckled, "You were actually outside of these whirlpools, but I dragged you into them, so I feel I have an obligation to remind you."

"Senior sister, you didn't involve me. This was my own choice."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing looked at He Xihong seriously and said, "If it weren't for you, Senior Sister, I might still be a shoe shiner on the streets of Qianyang. Not only would I have difficulty finding food and clothing, I would probably have to endure the bullying of those street thugs. It is you who changed my fate!"

He Xihong was slightly stunned by these sincere words and Chen Qing's serious expression.

After a moment, she chuckled again and said, "Yes, it seems that you are also a very thoughtful person. In this case, let's all respect our own choices. In addition, you don't have to be particularly grateful to me. I just gave you a chance, but you can get to where you are today because of yourself."

"With your personality, even without me, you would have risen if there was another opportunity. In this world, different paths lead to the same destination. No matter which path you take, as long as you reach the top, we will meet again. I just happened to meet by chance."

He Xihong's mood did not change much. After all, the two of them had only been in contact for about a month.

Although Chen Qing was always grateful and often thought of He Xihong, in He Xihong's eyes, Chen Qing was just a small shoemaker who she casually brought into the Tiger Gate.

In her life, the contact time of more than a month is not an exaggeration to say that she is just a passer-by in her life.

It’s just that compared with other passers-by in life, there is a little more affection between us as fellow disciples and as those who were brought into the school personally.

Of course, for Chen Qing, He Xihong was the person who changed his destiny. No matter how He Xihong viewed him, he would never forget this kindness.

What's more, what He Xihong said was very much to his liking.

As He Xihong said, he came from another world. Even if He Xihong hadn't led him into the Tiger Shaped Gate, he would have found ways to change the status quo.

With the supernatural power of his left eye and the many avant-garde experiences from his previous life, he will eventually achieve something whether it is making money or practicing boxing. It just depends on which comes first.

After all, there are only so many channels for upward mobility in this world, and no matter which path you take, you will eventually converge in the mainstream direction.

But one thing at a time, it is an indisputable fact that He Xihong gave him the opportunity.

Assumptions are meaningless; facts are the basis.

Therefore, Chen Qing must be grateful to He Xihong.

He just smiled and said, "Even if it happened by chance, it's you, Senior Sister."

He Xihong smiled upon hearing this, and did not continue to dwell on this topic. Instead, she said, "In short, be careful. If one day you meet someone who tries to guide you, no matter whether you feel it is good intentions or bad intentions, you must think clearly about what you want. Do you understand?"

Seeing that this matter was brought up again, the smile on Chen Qing's face faded, and he frowned slightly and asked, "So, Senior Sister, who is this person you are talking about?"

He Xihong shook her head slightly and said, "'He' can guide Lu Tianyuan and me, and his strength is above Lu Tianyuan and me. I'm not sure if the way 'he' looks in my eyes is his true appearance. In other words, when he approaches you in the future, will he use the same appearance he had in front of me? As for his name, he can just say it at random, so your question is meaningless."

"Your strength is far superior to that of you and Lu Tianyuan, Senior Sister?"

Hearing He Xihong's words, Chen Qing's brows gradually furrowed, "Peerless master?"

Lu Tianyuan and He Xihong are both in the first echelon among the great masters of "Three Huas Transformation".

If the strength of this guide is even higher than that of He Xihong and Lu Tianyuan, then he can only be a peerless master!

As for a peerless master, his identity should be easy to confirm...

He Xihong obviously saw through Chen Qing's idea.

She only said: "There are more than just our country in this world, and there may be more than just Master Cang and Master Jue among the peerless masters in our country. So, it seems that 'peerless masters' are easy to find, but in fact they are the hardest to find."

"Is this so..."

Chen Qing frowned more and more tightly, "A peerless master from another country?"

"do not know."

He Xihong shook her head again and said, "Although in my eyes, he is indeed a blond and blue-eyed young man from Western Land, his deception is so powerful that even I find it difficult to distinguish the real from the fake. That's why I said that I'm not sure if the way he looks in my eyes is his true appearance."

However, when Chen Qing heard this, his heart moved.

Things like "eye-catching tricks" are difficult for others to distinguish, but for him, he can basically see through them at a glance with the help of the special power of his left eye!
Based on what He Xihong mentioned, the other party's behavior.

Combining the two, the "he" that He Xihong mentioned did not seem to be particularly dangerous in his eyes.

Of course, although such a thought flashed through his mind, on the surface, he still kept a frown on his face - the power of his left eye was his biggest secret, and he could not reveal it even to his senior sister.

After frowning for a while, Chen Qing took a deep breath, exhaled, and then said, "Okay, I understand. I will be more careful. Thank you for your reminder, Senior Sister!"

"Ah."

He Xihong heard this, smiled and nodded again, saying: "I'm glad you understand."

"Sister..."

After discussing this topic, Chen Qing smiled and wanted to reminisce with He Xihong and talk about what happened in the past year.

But just as he opened his mouth, the [Spirit] value in his left eye began to jump rapidly!

As the [Spirit] value in his left eye jumped, He Xihong beside him also disappeared instantly!

Chen Qing was startled when he saw this, and his expression suddenly became serious.

He realized that at this moment, he had fallen into a "trick"!
"Senior sister!"

Chen Qing shouted loudly, and at the same time, he turned his head back and forth and looked at both ends of the alley repeatedly, trying to use other senses to find He Xihong's figure. Just now, he saw He Xihong, and then walked all the way into the alley. The [Spirit] value in his left eye did not jump, which proved that everything just now was not an illusion of "eye-catching tricks".

Only at this moment, his senses were mesmerized by the "eye-catching trick".

In other words, He Xihong who was next to him just now was real!
And since the He Xihong just now was real, then the "blindness" that he was caught in, if it was not the "he" that He Xihong mentioned just now, then it was cast by He Xihong himself!
No matter which one it is, it would not be wrong for him to find He Xihong first.

"Hey, you're pretty quick in seeing through the 'smoothing trick'."

After Chen Qing called out to He Xihong, He Xihong's voice was heard: "Or is it that my use of the 'eye-catching trick' is not mature enough?"

After hearing He Xihong's voice, Chen Qing was able to confirm that this sudden "eye-catching trick" was done by He Xihong.

But even though He Xihong spoke, the "eye-catching trick" around her was not solved.

In Chen Qing's field of vision, the alley was still empty, and the [Spirit] value in his left eye was still jumping rapidly.

However, Chen Qing noticed that the fluctuation of the [God] value was slowing down.

As the [Spirit] value in the left eye continued to slow down, He Xihong's voice rang out again: "Just now I just wanted to let you feel how difficult it is to distinguish the truth from the false of the 'eye-catching trick', but I didn't expect you to see through it at the first time. It seems that you have really learned a lot from the people from the other three halls. Let's leave it at this for now, I'm leaving first, don't come to look for me, I just started to lose consciousness again, it might be dangerous for you to come to me..."

As the words came to an end, the fluctuation of the [Spirit] value in Chen Qing's left eye gradually slowed down until it finally stopped.

When the [Spirit] value in his left eye completely stopped, there was still no sign of He Xihong in Chen Qing's sight. Only the ferry outside the alley was still bustling with people.

Seeing this scene, Chen Qing understood that He Xihong was using "smokescreen" to trap him and then left early.

The reason might be as He Xihong said, that during the conversation just now, the other party gradually became unconscious.

Or maybe there are other reasons.

In short, He Xihong didn't reminisce with Chen Qing or say goodbye, she just left.

Looking at the empty alley, Chen Qing realized that it was not a "smooth trick" and frowned slightly, not in a good mood.

He Xihong embarked on the same path as Lu Tianyuan, and the fact that he was being targeted by a "peerless master" made his already tense nerves even more tense.

Just at this moment, three young hooligans wearing short-sleeved shirts and long pants, wearing baseball caps and with their heads lowered suddenly turned in from the alley intersection.

As they walked in, the three men quickly pulled up the cloth tied around their necks, covered their mouths and noses, and then took out shining daggers from their clothes.

Then, one of them laughed and said, "My friend, you look very tired carrying two suitcases. Let the three of us help you lighten the burden."

Chen Qing, who was already in a bad mood, looked at the three hooligans who came in, and his eyes instantly turned cold...

"Killing! Killing!"

Screams of terror erupted from the crowd, attracting the attention of everyone passing by.

Soon, a patrol officer came over after hearing the noise.

"What happened?"

The patrol questioned the person who made the terrified cry.

Then he pointed at the alley next to him with a look of fear on his face and said, "I...I saw someone killing someone in there!"

Upon hearing this, the patrolman and the people around immediately looked towards the alley.

Afterwards, everyone saw three figures lying crookedly in the alley, with bright red blood all over the ground.

"what!"

In an instant, panic spread.

People around the alley left quickly, causing a commotion.

The patrolmen who arrived immediately blew their whistles to call their companions and began to cordon off and deal with the situation here.

During this commotion, in an alley some distance away, Chen Qing came out with two suitcases in his hands, looking cold, and left the Gangqiao District ferry terminal with the crowd.

……

After leaving the Gangqiao District Pier, Chen Qing directly hailed a rickshaw and returned to Sanyang District.

After leaving the dock, although he still looked a little strange carrying two suitcases, the rickshaw driver was an honest and decent man, otherwise he would not have fallen to the point of pulling a rickshaw.

So, the journey back to Sanyang District was safe and sound.

When the rickshaw arrived in Sanyang District, Chen Qing changed to another rickshaw in the district and returned to his home on Yunshan Road.

When he got home, it was beginning to get dark.

But when he got out of the car and took the key to open the door, he still caught Jueying's attention immediately.

Jue Ying came to the window of the room and looked towards the door just like he did yesterday. After finding that it was him, he retreated.

In the next two days, apart from his usual practice, Chen Qing only did one thing.

That is to buy supplies!
He began to buy batches of rice, flour and daily necessities in small quantities in a way that would not attract attention from many grain and oil shops, grocery stores and other places in Sanyang District and several nearby districts. He hired different people to bring the goods back to "Yunshan Road" and stored them in the basement.

Moreover, the time he chose to pull back was almost always after dark.

With such cautiousness, and the fact that there were not many actual residents in the garden houses on "Yunshan Road" and the residents were very scattered, it did not attract anyone's attention.

Although the Chen family was surprised by Chen Qing's behavior, after experiencing what happened with Qian Yang, Chen Zhengzhong, Yang Ying, and Chen Yang all believed in Chen Qing unconditionally, so they did not ask too many questions.

Correspondingly, Chen Qing did not hide his plan from the other three members of the Chen family. He just wouldn't tell them until he had finished shopping and felt everything was ready.

Because now is the time to race against time.

Just as Chen Qing continued to purchase supplies.

The deep part of the East China Sea where the city of "Hu Hai" faces.

Warships flying Ryusakura flags slowly appeared at the end of the horizon...
