Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 612: Duan Peng's Cruelty from the Original Novel

He Songling had long discovered that although the Duan Peng he found appeared at the same time and place as the Duan Peng in the TV series, his martial arts configuration seemed to be the same as the Duan Peng in the original novel.

Duan Peng in the TV series practices Iron Sand Palm, and his martial arts style is similar to Wei Dayong. He is a powerful player who can break stones and crack rocks. When he first met Ding Wei in the guesthouse, he remained motionless no matter how Ding Wei threw, grappled, or grabbed him.

But this is not the case with Duan Peng in the original novel of "Drawing Sword".

Duan Peng in the book is not from Shanxi, and he did not appear that early.

He did not make his debut until the 1950s, and his first appearance was when he beat up Ding Wei in a guesthouse, and he had never met Wei Dayong. Later, because of his good skills, he was appreciated by Ding Wei and introduced to Li Yunlong, who used him to form a special forces "Liangshan Squad".

The martial arts style displayed by Duan Peng was swift and sharp, and his lightness was amazing. He jumped down from a height of several meters, and the description used in the book was "landing lightly on the ground without making any sound".

When fighting with Ding Wei, he did not just let himself be beaten without fighting back, but instead displayed excellent grappling and counter-grappling techniques. His body movements were so swift that Ding Wei's attacks missed several times. Even though he was drunk, he was able to dodge Ding Wei's punches and kicks with only a very small movement distance.

Duan Peng's style of dealing with Wei Dayong's attack was exactly the same as when the battle just started.

In the end, when Duan Peng captured Ding Wei, there was no visible movement at all. Ding Wei was only seen flying several meters away and smashing the bed. Combined with the description of Duan Peng's jailbreak and stealing Li Yunlong's medal in the future, it is clear that this person is a master with fast speed and strong explosive power.

When He Songling first met Duan Peng in the suburbs near Heyuan County, he didn't even have to fight him. He could see the flow of Qi in his body with the Qi-reading technique. The light and cheerful flow of Qi reminded He Songling of his understanding of Duan Peng's skills in the original work of "Bright Sword".

After asking, it turned out to be true. Duan Peng was from Cangzhou, Hebei. Because of the invasion of the Japanese, he fled westward with his mother and finally came to Shanxi.

Cangzhou is a martial arts nest. As the saying goes, "You can't beat Cangzhou" means that no matter how skilled you are, when you arrive in Cangzhou, you have to hide your name, otherwise there will always be someone to deal with you.

Although Yanwu Hall was established in Baoding, many martial arts masters later served as instructors in Yanwu Hall, but it cannot be denied that many martial arts masters from Cangzhou ultimately stayed in their hometowns for the longest time.

The most famous one is the magic gunner Li Shuwen, who is from Cangzhou. He is no less powerful than Sun Lutang. In the circle of practicing Chinese martial arts, he is the best. Even if he is put in the whole circle of extraordinary people, he can be called the best. Take He Songling's uncle Si Chong as an example. Two Si Chongs may not necessarily be able to defeat the next Li Shuwen.

Although Duan Peng was not able to become Li Shuwen's disciple, this kid's inheritance is not simple.

As the country was in crisis, many patriotic martial arts masters openly taught their disciples. Duan Peng, a poor boy, was also able to follow suit.

In Cangzhou, he studied under Ma Yingtu and Cao Yanhai.

These two people are not as famous and capable as Li Shuwen, but they are also masters. Cao Yanhai's senior brother is called Guo Changsheng. He originally wanted to take Guo as his master, but because the age difference between the two was not very big, Guo Changsheng was regarded as a junior brother, and accepted this apprentice on behalf of his teacher.

Guo Changsheng's martial arts style is that he punches without his hands being visible, and he passes by like a gust of wind. People in the martial arts world call him "Guo Swallow". His speed is not much less than that of Yin Chengfeng, the "Forest Swallow" of Shunshi School.

As Guo Changsheng's junior brother, Cao Yanhai also lived up to his reputation. He could kick out a dozen wedges that hit the ground with his hooks. In his twenties, he was nicknamed "Flying on the Grass" and could slap people in the face with his feet. Guo Changsheng said to others, "My junior brother has three arms, and his legs are better than his hands."

Later, during the Hangzhou martial arts competition, Cao Yanhai showed his ability to "hit sideways" when facing a strong opponent. When the waiter poured tea, water splashed on the table. Li Jinglin, a guest, said, "Wipe it off." This remark awakened Cao Yanhai, and he "wiped" his opponent off the stage just like wiping water off the table. Most people at the time did not see this move clearly.

Although Duan Peng was not Cao Yanhai's direct disciple, as a student, he was obviously very good at learning. The way he attacked, whether it was the light body movements, the ghostly leg movements, or the horizontal strikes that threw Ding Wei several meters away and broke the bed without being seen, were all exactly the same as Cao Yanhai's famous fights and famous moves.

Now he rushed towards Monk Wei as fast as the wind, which was taught by "Cao Shang Fei", the junior brother of "Guo Yanzi". As for the method he used to beat Monk Wei, which required He Songling's permission to lift the ban, it was passed down from Ma Yingtu.

Ma Yingtu was even more terrifying. He learned Bajiquan, which is characterized by violence and tyranny. Ma Yingtu was even more powerful, had a temper like thunderbolt, and was ruthless and decisive. When he was young, Li Shuwen commented that "this kid is a good fighter." He was called "Lightning Hand" and "Ma Henzi" by people in the martial arts world.

When Ma Yingtu was a soldier under Feng Yuxiang, he fought with others. Before the whistle stopped, Ma Yingtu had already slashed three times from ten meters away, knocking his opponent unconscious. Later in Tianjin, he was besieged by hundreds of thugs, who beat him from the beginning to the end of the street, and the whole street was turned upside down.

Later, Ma Yingtu exchanged martial arts with Cao Yanhai's senior brother Guo Changsheng, and his strength reached a new level. He even killed a famous Russian fencer with one sword.

After Duan Peng learned this move, he dared not use it in daily fights with others. Except for killing devils, he only dared to use this kind of brutal move against tree trunks and rocks. Now when it hit Monk Wei, the hard Qigong of Shaolin Temple could not withstand it, and he was immediately pierced with several blood holes, and blood flowed out.

The injury looked horrible, but Duan Peng knew that for a warrior of Wei Dayong's level, especially one from Shaolin Temple, it was not a serious injury that could make him lose his fighting power. Since he had already started the fight, he would not hold back.

Just like Ma Yingtu, he attacked with lightning speed and was extremely ruthless. At first, he attacked the rough and thick parts of Wei Dayong's body, but later, he aimed directly at the vital points.

Even if Wei Dayong had practiced hard Qigong, he couldn't withstand such a beating. The rough and thick skin and flesh were beaten to bleed profusely, so it was impossible to test the hardness of the temples, the back of the head, the throat, the heart, and the perineum.

But at this time, he had been beaten by Duan Peng and had no way to defend himself. His fists were completely broken and he couldn't dodge at all.

"what!"

Just as Duan Peng was about to land his fist on the liver, he heard a roar, followed by a "dong" sound, like the sound of an ancient temple bell, with a deep and distant sound. Duan Peng looked closely and saw Wei Dayong in front of him, his whole body covered in gold.
