Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 107 Can’t speak

"Junior Brother Jiang seems to have not been here for two days."

Lin Quanliang glanced at the second floor and said to the people around him.

"Yeah, I didn't see him on the street yesterday. Could it be that something really happened?"

"No way, the Wild Wolf Gang has long been shattered, and Wu Tian and his men are nowhere to be found."

"That's why Junior Brother Jiang is in danger. If Wu Tian and his men want to take revenge on Junior Brother Jiang, they will definitely cause trouble for him before they leave."

As they were talking, a familiar sound of footsteps was heard coming from the stairs.

Several people looked over subconsciously.

"Junior Brother Jiang!"

A sound of exclamation sounded.

The person who came was Jiang Cheng.

"morning."

Jiang Cheng greeted him with a smile.

However, a few people couldn't be as calm as he was. They had too many questions in their minds.

For example, what happened when Jiang Cheng went up to the third floor that day? Did he see the owner?
After leaving, why didn’t he come to the boxing gym for two days in a row, and didn’t even set up a stall?

In fact, several people had speculated privately.

Either something happened to Junior Brother Jiang and he was ambushed by the Wild Wolf Gang.

Or maybe there is something wrong with my mentality and I am in a low mood. After all, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, so I have been adjusting my mood these two days.

Hearing several people asking questions at the same time, Jiang Cheng certainly couldn't say that he had been practicing secret martial arts at home for two and a half days.

"In fact, I went home that night and took a cold shower. The next day, I caught a cold and felt weak all over. That's why I didn't come to the gym and didn't even go out to the stall in the afternoon."

"So that's what I thought."

Lin Quanliang smiled and said, "I knew it. With Junior Brother Jiang's hardworking personality, how could he not come to the gym for two days in a row? How are you? Is your cold getting better?"

"I'm feeling better, but still a little weak. I came here today for one reason: I was afraid that everyone would worry, so I wanted to show my face. Second, I also wanted to find Senior Sister Bai and bring my family back. After all, it's not good to trouble her all the time." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

"That's right. After all, it's someone else's house."

"Most of the Wild Wolf Gang members are gone. We ran into the Iron Fist Gang members on the street a few days ago."

"The Wild Wolf Gang left, and here comes the Iron Fist Gang. Tsk tsk tsk tsk."

Several people also expressed their feelings after hearing this.

"By the way, Junior Brother Jiang, a few days ago, you went up to the third floor with Senior Brother Zeng. How was it? Did you meet the owner? Was he accepted as a disciple? If so, we have to call you Senior Brother Jiang from now on, right?" Someone asked pretending to be ignorant. After all, it would be too rude to ask directly why you were not accepted as a disciple by the owner.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng also sighed and looked helpless.

"Senior Brother Zeng did take me to see the owner of the museum, but unfortunately, my aptitude is average and I didn't catch the owner's eye."

When saying this, Jiang Cheng felt very calm and had no resentment.

After all, it is their right to accept me or not, and Senior Brother Zeng had also made it clear before going to the third floor.

Fortunately, he has already obtained the secret weapon, and in two days, he will be able to master the mental method and open the first acupoint.

"what?"

When they heard this, they were all stunned.

"Junior Brother Jiang, your physique is average? Then what is our physique? Is it extremely poor?"

"Oh my god, Junior Brother Jiang, you are so amazing, but you were not chosen by the Hall Master. I'm afraid we have no chance at all."

"It's too difficult. Who is qualified to be accepted as a disciple by the master?"

"Cough cough."

There was a slight cough.

Lin Quanliang and others raised their heads, and Jiang Cheng also turned around to look.

"Senior Brother Zhao."

"Ah."

Zhao Xiangyu smiled at Jiang Cheng, "Junior Brother Jiang, you're here. I remember you haven't been here for two days. What's wrong? Did something happen?" "I accidentally caught a cold and I feel a little better today." Jiang Cheng said.

"I see, no wonder, you should pay more attention to rest."

Zhao Xiangyu gave an instruction, glanced at the others, and then fell on Jiang Cheng, "Well, I just happen to have something to tell you, come with me."

Jiang Cheng was stunned, and inexplicably had a bad feeling in his heart.

But he followed anyway.

Lin Quanliang and others watched the two men leave, all with wry smiles on their faces.

"Even Junior Brother Jiang can't do it. It seems that there is no hope for us."

"Yeah, just think of it as strengthening your body."

"Ugh."

In a simple meeting room.

Zhao Xiangyu looked at Jiang Cheng who was sitting opposite him, and for a moment he didn't know how to start talking.

But the master's orders are hard to disobey.

In addition, for things like this, the sooner we inform them the better, so that Jiang Cheng can prepare as early as possible. If we wait until that day, it would be too unfair.

"Senior Brother Zhao..."

Jiang Cheng felt a little amused when he saw that the other party was looking at him for a long time without saying anything.

"I'm sorry, Junior Brother Jiang."

Zhao Xiangyu smiled awkwardly, "Actually, I don't know how to start. You have been a senior member of our boxing gym for a while, right?"

"About a week or so, what's wrong, Brother Zhao?"

"Actually, I asked you to come here, Junior Brother Jiang, to tell you that after two or three weeks, your membership will expire and you don't need to renew it."

Zhao Xiangyu gritted his teeth and said the last few words, his face flushed.

The smile on Jiang Cheng's face froze slightly.

"No need to renew? Senior Brother Zhao, I don't quite understand what you mean. Is the gym closed? Or are you targeting me alone and not letting me renew my subscription?"

"Yes, it's the latter."

Zhao Xiangyu was a little afraid to look Jiang Cheng in the eyes.

"So that's it."

Jiang Cheng's expression changed slightly.

In fact, ever since he started practicing the secret martial arts, he has been struggling with whether or not to renew his subscription next month.

Five thousand yuan a month is not a small amount.

In addition, the reason why he was willing to pay in the first place was that he wanted to use the boxing gym to get in touch with secret martial arts. Now that this goal has been achieved, renewing the subscription is purely for the purpose of paying protection money.

Of course, you can also choose to showdown and use secret weapons to fight against Zhao Xiangyu and others to increase the speed of gaining experience.

But this would also increase the risk, and he didn't want to be exposed.

If you don't renew your subscription, you will have to pay the new Iron Fist Gang.

Management fees and stall fees, neither of them can be ignored.

If you don’t hand it over, you’ll have to confront the Iron Fist Gang head-on.

So, Jiang Cheng was very conflicted.

But now, the boxing gym has made a decision for him and will not allow him to renew his contract.

Although Jiang Cheng didn't know the specific reason, he could guess that it should be related to the museum owner.

I don’t know what I did wrong to make the other person unhappy.

"Junior Brother Jiang."

Fearing that Jiang Cheng would ask more questions, Zhao Xiangyu quickly changed the subject and said, "I know someone at Qiufeng Sword Hall. When your membership with us expires, I can introduce you there. Their premium membership fee is the same as ours, 5000 yuan a month. If you apply for theirs, the result will be the same. Even the new Iron Fist Gang will not make things difficult for you."
