Chapter 13 Strength

Pei Youguang had a dream.

In his dream, he had a happy family. Although his father was as serious as ever, he was always proud of him. His mother would always secretly give him pocket money without telling his father, and touch his head to tell him that she loved him. The brothers in the dojo took him as the leader, and he became a world-famous martial arts genius, attracting everyone's attention.

He would not be ignored by his father as if he did not exist, his mother was still alive, and he would not always be regarded as a foil for his genius brother who went to the inner ring city, nor would he have the experience of being humiliated and running away in the dojo.

Everything was so beautiful.

"..."

The father in the dream seemed to be saying something to him. Pei Youguang tried hard to hear it clearly, but he could not hear it.

His father said it many times, and seemed impatient, and slapped him.

"Pah!"

Pei Youguang woke up and felt his right cheek burning.

"Hey."

Xue Jing squatted down, looked at Pei Youguang, who was lying on the ground with his eyes open but still a little confused, and slapped him again. The palm prints on both sides of his face were symmetrical.

"Pei Youguang, right? You have something to ask me? What is it? Tell me."

Xue Jing said with a cold tone.

Pei Youguang: "..."

After waking up and realizing the current situation, Pei Youguang was silent for a while, with a wry smile on his face:

"No... I'm fine."

Xue Jing nodded: "I'm glad you're fine."

"But you're fine now, I have something to ask you."

Pei Youguang touched his sunken nose, and he gasped in pain, but when he heard Xue Jing's words, he hurriedly said: "You tell me, you tell me."

He was not a tough person. He had been bullied countless times since he was a child, and he had long learned to be humble and swallow his anger.

Although he had gotten used to bullying others after entering the affiliated middle school and almost forgot the past, Xue Jing’s two slaps successfully awakened his muscle memory.

He did not use his family background to threaten others. All the students in the affiliated middle school knew that he had a background. Since Xue Jing dared to beat him, it meant that he was not afraid.

Whether he was not afraid because he had someone to rely on or he was simply brave, he was defeated now.

He could only admit his defeat.

Xue Jing looked down at him and asked, "I heard that you killed someone? And bullied female classmates?"

Pei Youguang smiled and said, "No, no, it's all rumors."

"What about the girl who transferred to another school last semester?"

"...I was pursuing her, but I really didn't do that kind of thing. The girl transferred because she was too scared. If she really did it, the school wouldn't have expelled me until now."

Speaking of this, Pei Youguang glanced at the younger brothers lying beside him, hesitated for a while, and whispered, "Don't tell anyone, I'm still a virgin."

Xue Jing slapped him in the face.

Pa——

"I don't want to hear this kind of useless information."

Pei Youguang covered his face with his hands: "Yes..."

"Since there was no such thing, why didn't you clarify it?"

"Clarification may not be useful, and...with such rumors, my classmates are very afraid of me...I think it's cool..."

Xue Jing slapped him in the face again.

Speechless: "You are mentally retarded, aren't you? You want to take the reputation of a rape criminal on yourself?"

Pei Youguang didn't dare to talk back: "You are right."

"Be a good student in the future, don't do these nonsense, go back and write a self-criticism, write down clearly what you have done and what you haven't done, recite it ten times in front of the whole class during the morning reading tomorrow, and let your younger brother take a video, I will check it later."

Pei Youguang said in embarrassment: "Ah this..."

Pop——

Pei Youguang covered his face with one hand and waved his other hand repeatedly: "I will write it when I go back."

Xue Jing hummed, and asked casually: "By the way, the one where you hit the wall The punch was quite powerful, what happened? "

Pei Youguang answered honestly: "I have practiced martial arts, and I used 'strength' in that punch just now."

Xue Jing asked curiously: "Strength? Is it something like the internal force in martial arts novels?"

Pei Youguang nodded first, then shook his head: "Strength, can also be called internal force... It is not a supernatural energy, but a way to use physical strength. By mobilizing one's own muscles, tendons, blood, breathing, etc., and cooperating with each other, the technique of squeezing out the potential that the body already has is 'strength'."

Pei Youguang recalled what the master in the dojo had taught him and explained.

"To put it scientifically, the essence of 'strength' is kinetic energy. The organs inside the body move in coordination with each other, accumulating kinetic energy, and then using 'moves' to release the accumulated kinetic energy from the body. The power is much greater than that of ordinary punches and kicks."

"I heard that some powerful martial artists use strength in an exaggerated way, and can even punch through the armor of a tank with their flesh and blood. I don't know if it's true."

Xue Jing pinched his chin and said nothing.

Pei Youguang saw this and immediately understood it, and hurriedly said: "If you are interested, I can teach you, although I only know a little about the basics of strength..."

Seeing that he was so sensible, Xue Jing patted him on the shoulder and softened his expression: "Then I'll trouble you."

Pei Youguang said cautiously: "No, no, but writing a self-criticism and reciting it in class... can I be exempted?"

Xue Jing thought for a while and said: "No, but you don't have to read it ten times, just once will do."

"..." Pei Youguang felt that there was no difference between ten times and once, both of which were "dignity" lost, so there was no way to give in like this, but he didn't dare to refute, so he could only laugh dryly: "Thank you."

"Okay." Xue Jing stood up.

"That's it, I'll go to you to learn "strength" when I'm free this afternoon or tomorrow. Study hard in the future and be a serious student. Don't let me hear you bully anyone again."

Pei Youguang: "All up to you."

...

When Xue Jing left the dark alley, the younger brothers lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious slowly got up, knocked their heads, and groaned in pain, all of them looked like they had just woken up.

"Hey, Brother Pei, where is Senior Xue...Senior Xue?"

Pei Youguang sat up, touched his school uniform pocket, took out a box of wrinkled cigarettes, wanted to light one, but felt no interest, and sighed.

"You should call him Brother Jing from now on."

The younger brothers looked at each other and could only agree.

The scene was quiet for a while, and Pei Youguang looked thoughtful: 'He has never practiced martial arts, but he has this kind of physical fitness... It should be considered as a good foundation as the teacher in the dojo said...'

'Same as my eldest brother...'

I don't know if he was beaten or what, Pei Youguang had a hunch that Xue Jing was definitely not an ordinary person.

Words like 'holding thighs' and 'following the dragon' flashed through his mind, but the limits of his vision and cognition made it impossible for him to sort out the pros and cons for a while.

After a long time, he shook his head.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, I just need to get along well with him!"

Pei Youguang decided to follow his instincts.
