Chapter 44 Why Sister Meng Doesn’t Speak
"Snap."
Feeling the soft touch from his fingertips, Xue Jing realized that something was wrong and his face changed.
He was so excited that he didn't think too much for a moment. He only saw the distance between his fingers and subconsciously felt that there was an opportunity, so he used a finger snap.
It was really not intentional.
Just when Xue Jing was stunned, Meng Qingjiao slapped him on the chest and knocked him out.
He still used soft power.
Xue Jing stood up with a somersault and asked Meng Qingjiao with concern:
"Senior sister, are you okay?"
Meng Qingjiao shook her head.
She glanced at Xue Jing faintly, her expression unchanged. If it weren't for the barely detectable blush on her face, it would be as if nothing had happened.
The atmosphere was a little weird for a while, but fortunately Li Qi next to him spoke up to help: "Okay, let's stop today's training."
Hearing this, Xue Jing also breathed a sigh of relief.
After this happened, he felt somewhat dazed, and lost all his fighting spirit, or rather, his ‘spirit of movement’ was gone, so his punches were bound to be weak, and he couldn’t fight at all.
Li Qi, who was as experienced as he was, saw this and ended today’s training directly.
“Qingjiao, go and rest.” Li Qi said gently.
“…” Meng Qingjiao nodded, thought for a moment, walked in front of Xue Jing, and touched his head, as if to say that he didn’t need to care.
Xue Jing was stunned, and he could see a trace of maternal tenderness from the cold and pretty face in front of him.
After the short-haired beauty left, Xue Jing looked at her curvy back and thought.
‘Next time, I’ll make a big meal for Senior Sister Meng… I’ll do my best. ’
Shaking his head, Xue Jing opened the panel and took a look.
【Fitness Lv5 (827/2000)】
【Health Lv3 (468/800)】
【Cooking Lv3 (751/800)】
【Running Lv5 (699/2000)】
【Charm Lv4 (66/1200)】
【Aiming Lv3 (567/800)】
【Fighting Lv3 (520/800)】
【Power Lv4 (217/1200)】
【Visualization Lv1 (251/300)】
These three days of actual combat training have been a great harvest for him.
Especially fighting and power, both of which were directly upgraded by one level, and fitness, aiming, and health care all gained a lot of experience.
Of course, these are just the data displayed on the panel. The actual combat experience he gained in these three days and the fighting system he gradually built up are not reflected on the panel.
This is a huge improvement in combat power.
"Although I'm used to your growth rate, I'm still surprised every time."
Li Qi pinched his chin and said.
Xue Jing said modestly: "It's all because of the master's good teaching."
Li Qi waved his hand: "We martial artists must learn to 'lie' and can't always tell the truth."
"In actual combat, as long as you can deceive your opponent, you've won half the battle. The error of intelligence information is extremely fatal in a critical battle. You must remember this."
Xue Jing nodded and said: "Disciple has learned."
After thinking for a while, Xue Jing asked: "By the way, Master, Senior Sister Meng and Senior Brother, why don't you speak?"
He asked the question he had been holding since he entered the sect.
He originally thought that the father and daughter were taciturn and cold, but after spending a few days together, he found that it was different from what he thought.
When the senior brother Meng Boshang saw him, although he never spoke, he would nod at him every time, showing a smile that was not sure if it was a smile or not, which should be to express goodwill to him.
Not to mention Senior Sister Meng, she would take a few hours every day to teach him moves and training, and would touch his head, and even... she was not angry when he hit her front armor, obviously she really regarded him as a beloved junior brother.
Except for not talking all the time and having no expression, he basically has nothing to do with the word "cold".
"..."
Li Qi was silent for a while, and sighed:
"When Qingjiao was still young, something happened..."
"When Boshang was young, he followed me in the circle of the inner ring city, and he was also a little famous, worthy of the title of a young talent, and also met many rich ladies..."
"He and one of them, Qingjiao's mother, fell in love with each other, got married soon after, and gave birth to Qingjiao."
At this point, Li Qi's old and turbid eyes revealed a trace of sadness and regret.
"At that time, I was too arrogant and overconfident in my martial arts. I challenged others to fights every day. In the end, I fell and ran into a ruthless person. He broke my legs and killed the real dragon in my heart with one punch, which ruined my spirit."
"I have too many enemies. After learning that I became half a useless person, countless people took advantage of me."
"At that time, Boshang stayed by my side every day to protect me, so he inevitably neglected his family. That day, only Qingjiao and her mother stayed at home, and as a result, enemies came to the door..."
"In order to protect Qingjiao, her mother asked Qingjiao to hide and told her, 'Don't make a sound before her mother comes back.'"
Xue Jing listened silently and had roughly guessed what was going on.
"When the old man and Boshang realized something was wrong and rushed back, they only found Qingjiao, who had been hungry for several days, in the basement of the house. Her mother disappeared from then on and her life or death is still unknown."
"Since that day, Qingjiao has never spoken again."
Li Qi looked out the window.
"Boshang was originally a talkative and cheerful person, but later, in order to prevent Qingjiao from thinking that he was an alien with a disability, he and Qingjiao kept their mouths shut and stopped talking."
"In order to avoid enemies and protect Qingjiao, we left the inner ring city in disgrace, and then came to Qingcheng and opened this Canglong Dojo."
Xue Jing was silent, not knowing what to say.
But in his heart, it was inevitable that a trace of pity for Meng Qingjiao emerged.
'You must not speak before your mother comes back', this reason that made her unable to speak from then on, was too distressing.
Because he was not the person involved, he could not express any opinion on the past described by Li Qi, and could only remain silent.
"... When people get old, they are inevitably sentimental and talk too much." Li Qi suddenly laughed.
"You don't need to care about these, they are all old things, and they are over."
Li Qi comforted Xue Jing.
"Master, do you want revenge?"
Xue Jing thought about it and asked.
Li Qi shook his head: "When will the cycle of revenge end... I have caused too many things and made too many enemies, which is why Bo Shang's family encountered such a thing."
"As for the idea of revenge, it is definitely there. The only obsession left for me is to find the person who hurt Qing Jiao and Qing Jiao's mother, but..."
Li Qi shook his head: "I have too many enemies. I don't even know who to target."
Xue Jing said without thinking: "Then I don't want to think about who it is specifically. I will just crush them all in the future."
Li Qi was speechless.
"You are even more arrogant than me at my peak. My enemies are all people from the inner ring city, not small fish and shrimps in Qingcheng. It's hard to deal with them all. How can I crush them all?"
Xue Jing blinked and said seriously: "I think I can do it."
Li Qi laughed.
"Then I'll look forward to it."
