The master's words were extremely clever. From the beginning to the end, he was elevating Xiao Zheng and lowering his own posture. In addition, he used the word "teach" and "learn from each other" instead of "challenge". To a large extent, this was like a chance encounter between two enlightened monks. One of the monks admired the other's profound knowledge and requested to learn from the other's Dharma. This wasn't a malicious request in itself. In fact, it was even an honor for the person being requested. Who had a reason to refuse?
Not to mention Xiao Zheng, even the head of the family, Dong Bijun, only said, "Don't be rude."
In the face of the master's suggestion, Xiao Zheng's face showed an unexpected but reasonable expression. After holding it in for a few days, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore?
She had followed behind him several times to spy on him. She was probably waiting for this moment, right?
"Mr. Xiao is an honored guest. How can I learn from you so casually? "Li Jing saw the master's intention and stood up with a calm face. "If you want to learn from each other, let me accompany you."
Although Li Jing was not as famous as Lin Chaotian in the capital, in terms of martial strength, she was one of the few masters in Yan Jin, the ancient capital of five dynasties. Letting her come out to fight was giving the master enough face. It made his trip worthwhile.
Hearing this, the master shook his head and said, "Aunt Jing is a senior master. How can a junior like me dare to learn from you?"
The reason why he chose to make this suggestion in this situation was because he had thought of all the countermeasures. He knew that Li Jing was a senior master and her strength was also very outstanding. Of course, the most important point was that he dared to be ruthless towards Xiao Zheng, but not Li Jing.
First, Xiao Zheng's identity was not clear. Even if he was favored by Feng Mingshan, it was not stable. Even if he "accidentally" hurt him, it didn't matter if he was punished. But if he caused too much trouble with Li Jing, it wouldn't just be offending an old nun, but the entire Ye family.
He couldn't bear this responsibility.
Although Li Jing had heard of Xiao Zheng's achievements, she also believed that Xiao Zheng's strength was definitely not weak. But after interacting with him for this period of time, she felt that Xiao Zheng was a kind and kind-hearted person. Although he was a little glib, he was very opinionated and kind when it came to important matters. Li Jing, who had experienced the world, clearly understood that the most frightening thing about a battle between experts was not the fact that one's strength was inferior. Instead, they lacked wisdom. Once one side naively thought that it was a spar, and the other side intended to kill. Even if Xiao Zheng's true strength was superior to an expert's, it was very likely that he would be at a disadvantage.
This was also the reason why Li Jing immediately jumped out to stop him when Master made this suggestion. As Ye Yuhua's personal maid, she was an elder who had watched Lin Huayin grow up. She was very satisfied with this new son-in-law. Not only was he cute and interesting, but he also respected her, a servant who had no sense of existence.
These days, there were many people on the streets who said one thing in front of others and another behind their backs. However, it was rare to see a young man like Xiao Zheng who sincerely treated others well regardless of their status.
"Aunt Jing is a senior expert. You don't dare to spar. Do I count as the same generation as you? "
At some point, Lin Huayin, who had been standing at the back of the crowd, quietly appeared. Her expression was as cold as ever, and her eyes were as calm as ever. It was impossible to see her joy, and it was impossible to distinguish her emotions. But as long as she was willing to stand up, in any situation, in any environment, she was destined to be the only focus.
Do I count as the same generation as you?
Lin Huayin's words were like a powerful bomb, fiercely smashing into the expert's heart. Do I count as the same generation as Lin Huayin? Definitely in terms of age, but in terms of status — —
He didn't even dare to touch Li Jing, a maid by Ye Yuhua's side, much less the high and mighty Miss Lin of the Lin family? It should be known that although he personally served Dong Bijun and listened to all her orders. But who was his real master? And who ordered him to obey Dong Bijun?
It was Lin Chaotian.
Lin Huayin's biological father.
And as far as he knew, in this world, the only person who dared to challenge Lin Chaotian, and Lin Chaotian wouldn't get angry, was this Miss in front of him.
Spar with her?
He wouldn't dare even if he had a hundred guts.
"Men talk. What are you getting involved in? "Xiao Zheng calmly glanced at Lin Huayin. He displayed the demeanor of a man. And it immediately shut the mouths of all the onlookers.
In Xiao Zheng's eyes, even Lin Huayin couldn't stand up and speak. Who else had the qualifications? It should be known that Lin Huayin was his little sweetheart, a big beauty, a little wife who shared his bed and dreams. Xiao Zheng even dared to scold her, so who else would dare to stand up and show off?
Dong Bijun made an expression as if she wanted to say something, but then calmly stood to the side. Waiting for the development of the situation.
Although Xiao Zheng's words were directed at Lin Huayin, Li Jing also very naturally took his place. Involuntarily, she took two steps back. She didn't think that Xiao Zheng's words were harsh, but she was sincerely worried for him.
Everyone was silent. Lin Huayin also walked back. Although her face was still calm, there was a trace of unwillingness hidden in the depths of her eyes.
She wouldn't embarrass Xiao Zheng in this kind of situation. Even if the price was a little grievance. But as a woman, she had this kind of awareness. Just like at home, Xiao Zheng would accommodate her in everything. If she tried to suppress Xiao Zheng at any time and on any occasion, Lin Huayin believed that in less than a week, Xiao Zheng would torture her with his unique mouth.
Xiao Zheng settled all the people with one sentence, and then a harmless smile appeared on his face. He looked at the expert and said, "Xiao Gao, you think too highly of me. I'm just an ordinary person. I've been a soldier for two years. How can I compare notes with a professional like you? "
Looking at the momentum, listening to the tone, this was obviously a humble excuse.
The expert could hear it, so he didn't take it seriously. He just squeezed out a smile and said, "It's just comparing notes. Mr. Xiao doesn't need to be too serious. "
Xiao Zheng took advantage of the situation and agreed to the expert's invitation in a seemingly casual manner.
"Here?" The expert asked tentatively, but there was a strange light faintly jumping in his eyes. This light was a mixture of revenge and malice, soul-stirring.
"No." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "The temple is a quiet place, not suitable for fighting. Let's go outside. "
"Okay." The expert didn't say anything else and walked straight out the door. But the moment his back was facing the crowd, the coldness on his face was completely exposed. He was like a ferocious wild dog, or like a jackal in the deep mountains.
A fierce person who could even slap his own face until his teeth fell out, what kind of attitude would he have towards an enemy with deep resentment?
