Chapter 1693: Martial Arts Arena Battle (1)
Ling Chen had a speechless expression on his face, and the two old men actually teased themselves. Coming out of the office, Ling Chen met with Chen Junfeng and the others. Thanks to Chen Junfeng's help, this action is not only possible to express his gratitude.
After taking a short break in the Dragon and Tiger Guild Hall, Ling Chen drove alone to the martial arts hall opened by Tianji Pavilion. He Ziyun said that the martial arts hall of Tianji Pavilion was not far from the Dragon and Tiger Guild Hall, Ling Chen thought that this 'not far' was at least a few kilometers, but who knew that after the car drove a few hundred meters, he saw two stone lions towering outside a gate. There is still red silk hanging on the head of the stone lion, and a plaque is hung on the top, on which are written the four big characters of 'Tianji Martial Arts Hall', and the penmanship is vigorous and powerful.
Ling Chen parked the car and went straight to the door of the Tianji Martial Arts Hall. Presumably, because of the rush to open, a lot of painting work has not yet been completed, and at the moment there are several painters painting the walls outside, and there is a smell of paint everywhere.
Before arriving at the door, before Ling Chen entered the door, he saw two young men wearing the uniform uniforms of the martial arts hall walking out of it.
"Hello gentleman, who are you looking for?" asked a young man politely.
Ling Chen smiled slightly: "My name is Ling Chen, and I heard that the Lord of Su Pavilion is here, so I came here to visit." ”
Hearing Ling Chen's name, the other party couldn't help but be stunned, hurriedly hugged his fists, and said politely: "It turned out to be Mr. Ling, please come in." Entering the martial arts hall, Ling Chen looked all the way, and saw that there were hundreds of students on the huge martial arts arena, including children aged five or six, and teenagers. Everyone is practicing the basic skills in a proper manner.
Seeing this scene, Ling Chen couldn't help but look at Su Mei differently. All along, in his eyes, Su Mei is a very decent person, and he will never and disdain to use any improper means. However, after going through so many things, Su Mei has finally changed, or rather...... She has slowly matured. As the master of Tianji Pavilion, if it was in the era when Tianji Pavilion dominated the martial arts, her character would be suitable. However, in the face of competitors, Su Mei's character is a very big weakness.
Judging from this incident, Su Mei already knows how to use means to achieve her goals. Even if this means is not above board. A mature person in power, this is one of the necessary factors.
In fact, after the matter of Suhe was over, Ling Chen didn't want to conflict with Tianji Pavilion again. According to his plan, it wouldn't take more than ten years for the Dragon and Tiger Guild Hall to completely surpass the Tianji Pavilion. However, Tianji Pavilion was quite clever and actually saw their plan. With the opening of the Tianji Martial Arts Pavilion, the expansion plan of the Dragon and Tiger Guild had to be temporarily terminated, otherwise, even if it continued, it would not be able to get much benefit.
After a while, Ling Chen was led into the reception room by the two young men. "Mr. Ling, please wait a moment, I'll go and inform the Pavilion Master. ”
Ling Chen nodded, picked up a cup of tea and drank it to himself.
At this moment, in a room in the Tianji Martial Arts Pavilion, Su Mei listened to the reports of the two young men and waved his hand: "I know, you guys go down first." ”
Waiting for the two young men to exit the room, Su Mei turned his head to look at Du Kang on the side and asked, "Old Du, Ling Chen came to me at this time, I'm afraid he came to find trouble." What do you think we should do?"
"Ling Chen came to us alone, probably not to find trouble. Pavilion Master, if you don't want to see him, you might as well find an excuse to send him away. However, I suggest you go and meet him and find out what the Dragon and Tiger Guild thinks. ”
"Okay, I see. ”
After waiting for a few minutes, Ling Chen, who was sitting in the reception room, finally saw Su Mei coming from outside.
"Miss Su. Ling Chen stood up with a smile, took the initiative to greet him, and said hello.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. ”
"It's okay, the Tianji Martial Arts Hall has just opened, and you must have a lot to do. I've been in a bit of trouble lately, otherwise I would have come to congratulate me a long time ago. I came in a hurry today, and I didn't prepare any congratulatory gifts, so don't blame me for being stingy. ”
Su Mei smiled slightly: "I'm already very happy that you can come, sit down." When the two of them sat down, Su Mei said: "Ling Chen, I'm really sorry to rob you of the business of the Dragon and Tiger Guild, I thought you were here to ask the teacher today." ”
Ling Chen waved his hand and grinned, "Look at what you said, am I the kind of person with a small belly and chicken intestines?" I have said before that martial arts need to be injected with new blood, and only in this way can the entire martial arts develop and grow and rejuvenate. Your Tianji Pavilion is willing to abandon the old habits of the past and reform and innovate, I am too late to be happy. I believe that as long as we work together, the entire martial arts will sooner or later regain its peak. Therefore, we are all contributing to the future of martial arts now, with the same goal, and there is no such thing as grabbing business. ”
Hearing this, Su Mei was silent for a while, and then said, "I heard that you disappeared some time ago, what's going on?"
Ling Chen pretended to sigh helplessly and said: "People are floating in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed." When there are more people, there will be more enemies. But fortunately, I'm a hard person, and there is no hurdle that I can't get over. Look, don't I sit in front of you right now?"
Speaking of this, Ling Chen's words changed sharply and asked, "By the way, Miss Su, take the liberty of asking, ...... your grandfather?"
Without waiting for Ling Chen to finish speaking, Su Mei shook his head lightly and said, "I don't have any news of him, and besides, Tianji Pavilion has already severed relations with him, and what he does in the future has nothing to do with Tianji Pavilion." ”
"Miss Su, you misunderstood me, it's been so long, I don't want to pursue it anymore. In any case, Su Lao is half my master. If I could, I'd like to sit down with him, have a drink, have a chat, and let the past pass. After a pause, Ling Chen continued: "Actually, I can understand Su Lao's approach, but his method choice is wrong. Miss Su, if you have the opportunity to meet Mr. Su in the future, please help me bring him a message. A teacher for one day and a father for life, no matter what happens in the future, he is the person he respects the most. ”
Su Mei nodded and said, "Let's talk about it when I have a chance to meet him, but I personally don't think this chance is big." ”
"Okay. Ling Chen smiled, got up and said, "The martial arts hall is open, presumably you still have a lot to do, so I won't bother much, and I will have the opportunity to contact you often in the future." As long as it's okay, I'm usually in Tokai City. ”
"Then I'll send you out. ”
Coming out of the Tianji Martial Arts Pavilion, Ling Chen exchanged a few polite words with Su Mei, and then drove back to the Dragon and Tiger Pavilion.
