Martial Arts Song

Chapter 313 Promise
"Thank her for what?"

After being stunned, Lin Manli asked with a puzzled look on her face.

In her opinion, Chen Qing had made things clear the last time he went with her to the "Anping Hotel" in Xicheng District.

In the other party's eyes, she has become a "bad woman", and she has accepted this result.

Now she was suddenly asked to thank the other party, she really didn't understand.

"I asked her for a favor, and she agreed for your sake, so I wanted you to thank her."

Chen Qing smiled slightly and said without hiding anything.

In fact, some of what he said to Qi Yi was not a lie.

He really didn't have the ability to organize so many people to do the big commotion in East City.

Although he had been in "Hu Hai" for more than half a year, he had not developed any power locally because of the "new rice" incident in Qianyang.

The few familiar outsiders were Lin Manli, Jiang Ying, Luo Zongping, Lu Hongfeng, and the driver "Wang Yuanfa" from whom he borrowed the cart when he was practicing.

But these people can't help in this matter.

Needless to say, Lin Manli and Jiang Ying are ordinary people, so Chen Qing never considered them.

Although Luo Zongping and Lu Hongfeng both opened martial arts schools and had many disciples, Chen Qing's relationship with them was only casual acquaintances, and it was not to the extent that he could ask them for help.

Moreover, if he really asked Luo Zongping and Lu Hongfeng to help with this matter, they would definitely ask the reason.

Chen Qing didn't want to expose himself and the Chen family.

Although judging from the contacts during this period, the two people on the other side would most likely not betray them, Chen Qing still did not want to take any risks.

To put it bluntly, it’s still a problem of insufficient trust.

However, the coachman "Wang Yuanfa" could make use of it.

As long as you give money, you can ask the other party to mobilize the rickshaw drivers they know to help you do the job, and the other party will not be tactless and ask the reason.

However, the other party was just an ordinary person after all. Not to mention that when they met for the last time, the other party had decided not to pull a cart anymore and to do small business.

Even if the other party continues to pull the cart, the rickshaw drivers he knows may not necessarily agree to his help.

There may even be a situation where they appear to agree but do not do the job after receiving the money.

After all, the other party was just an ordinary driver without any background or strength, and he had no authority to restrain the drivers he knew.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is not safe to find a driver named "Wang Yuanfa".

He had direct contact and met with "Wang Yuanfa", so if he wanted to find him, there was only a springboard between them.

With just a little investigation and tracing back to the source, you can find "Wang Yuanfa" and find him.

Therefore, Chen Qing did not look for "Wang Yuanfa", the rickshaw driver from Dongcheng.

After some thought, the person he finally looked for was "Sister Lan", the lesbian and former lover of Lin Manli who had helped her before.

The reason for looking for "Sister Lan" is also very simple.

First, the other party had "actively" asked to help him do things before, and he had a "hostage" in the form of Lin Manli, whom the other party cared about.

The second is that he is not familiar with the other party and does not need to explain the reason to the other party.

Thirdly, the other party is also a killer from the "Cloud" organization. With his vigilance and skills in hiding himself, there will be some protection and it will not be easy to track him down.

This is why Chen Qing asked the other party to help do this.

As for whether the other party has the ability to do this well, Chen Qing has no doubt about it.

He learned some information about this "Sister Lan" from Lin Manli.

When the two were together, they went in and out of various high-end places in West City. Several times at night, they even boarded the Starry Sky, a luxury night cruise ship that was quite famous in "Huhai".

In these high-end places and on the "Fanxing", many people they met knew "Sister Lan", and most people greeted them by calling her "Sister Lan".

Only a very small number of people who look very old, and those who are surrounded by a crowd and look very powerful, will call someone "A Lan" or "Xiao Lan".

Although Lin Manli still didn't know what "Sister Lan" did later, Chen Qing knew enough to judge that "Sister Lan" should have a high status in the upper circle of "Hu Hai".

A high status also means high ability.

that's the truth.

When Chen Qing found that "Sister Lan" and told her what he wanted to do, the other party did not refuse or feel embarrassed, but bargained and asked to see Lin Manli again.

After some hesitation, Chen Qing finally agreed.

Afterwards, the other party's work was not perfect, but it was pretty good.

So, Chen Qing also came to fulfill his promise.

"Why do you need her help?"

When Lin Manli heard Chen Qing's words, she was stunned again, and then asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"She just happened to be needed for something."

Chen Qing said calmly: "Is this matter very difficult for you? If it is difficult, forget it."

He said this, but he was actually using rhetoric to retreat in order to advance.

really!

After hearing what he said next, Lin Manli frowned and said, "It's not that it's difficult, but it feels a bit weird... I just explained it to her a while ago, and now I'm thanking her again... I'm worried that we'll get entangled in the future..."

"So that's what you're worried about."

Chen Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, she won't continue to bother you as long as I'm here. Besides, she helped you when you were in trouble. I think you should thank her, or at least say goodbye properly, right?"

After the hard part, Chen Qing started with the soft part.

He used both soft and hard tactics.

After a brief moment of contemplation, Lin Manli finally nodded in agreement and said, "What you said makes sense, but I want you to go with me."

"of course."

Chen Qing replied with a smile.

If he wasn't here, the "hostage" matter would be exposed.

This "Sister Lan" has such a high status and ability in "Hu Hai" and it would be a waste to use such a useful tool only once.

Just like that, the two of them decided to thank "Sister Lan".

Afterwards, after discussing the date of the meeting, the details, the thank-you gift and the like, Chen Qing stayed with Lin Manli for a while, supervising Jiang Ying's practice and chatting with Lin Manli for a while.

Afterwards, when it was around three o'clock in the afternoon, he got up and left, returning to the Chen family courtyard in "Sanlin Town".

……

September 8, 4 a.m.

"Ding-ling-ling~~" the sound of an alarm suddenly rang out in the dark room.

The next second, on the bed in the dark room, Chen Qing suddenly opened his eyes, then turned to the right, raised his left hand and swung it in an arc, and with a "click" he turned off the alarm on the bedside table.

Then he sat up and turned on the light in the room.

The dim light instantly illuminates the room.

Then, Chen Qing was seen sitting on the bed. He subconsciously raised his hand to rub his abdomen and said to himself, "Women really should not be offended..."

Because of the big commotion in East City these days, Qi Yi got angry and used so much force when massaging his acupoints that his biological clock, which was supposed to wake him up naturally before four in the morning, was disrupted!
These past few days, he could only wake up after hearing the alarm clock ringing.

Although the impact was not great, Chen Qing still felt that it was better to let Qi Yi calm down as soon as possible.

"Today I first mentioned to my senior sister about using those unconventional auxiliary methods to practice, and then said that I should prepare and deal with the tail of Dongcheng before starting."

After planning what he was going to do today, Chen Qing gathered his distracting thoughts and took a look at the [Spirit] value at the bottom of his left eye as usual:
【Fine: 22.30112928】

【Qi: 9.393458783】

【God: 3.512839234】

After about half a month of practice, his [Essence] value has exceeded 22.3, and his [Spirit] value has also exceeded 3.5.

As for the [Qi] value, although there is not much change in the value, the temperature of the Dantian in the abdomen is gradually rising.

After checking his own [Essence, Energy and Spirit] values, Chen Qing got up and started today's "training of spirit" and "training of energy".

He practiced until just after six in the morning. After finishing today's "training of mind" and "training of qi", he went to work on "Guoshan Road" in "Sanyang" as usual.

Although in the past few days, because of the protest, the workers on "Guoshan Road" went on a collective strike to protest together.

But after it was over, I naturally went back to work.

And after witnessing the scene of tens of thousands of people besieging the police station, the factory owners did not dare to say anything.

Some bosses even found reasons to give the striking workers a few days off, so that the system in the factory could be maintained without offending the striking workers, for fear that their factories would also be surrounded by tens of thousands of people.

Many workers from the "Roche Paper Mill" also participated in the strike protest during those days.

In response to this, Luo Zongping’s solution is that those who go to work will be paid, and those who do not go to work will be treated as on holiday and will not be paid, but their wages and attendance will not be deducted either.

This is a relatively moderate approach, neither offending nor pleasing anyone.

Originally, the factory was mostly used as a warehouse and only worked half a day. Many workers who worked here would find another job after get off work at noon.

It's equivalent to an extra salary for free!
Although the Luo's Paper Mill only works half a day and the wages are the lowest among the many factories on "Guoshan Road", many people just want this job where they can work half a day and then find other work.

Therefore, after the strike protest subsided, the "Roche Paper Mill" quickly returned to normal without any other incidents.

Chen Qing spent a dull morning at work. After getting off work at noon, he immediately left the factory and went to the "Sanyang" ferry, where he took a boat to Xicheng.

Then, he took a rickshaw to Yunguang Road in Jiangwan District, got off the rickshaw, bought the wine needed for practicing, and carried it to the hotel called "Shumian".

“Here we go again.”

When the hotel proprietress saw Chen Qing coming, she smiled and greeted him, then sighed, "It's good to be young. I haven't gotten tired of it even after half a month."

Chen Qing did not respond to the other party's teasing, but just nodded slightly, then walked along the corridor on the second floor and came to room 210 at the end.

After skillfully taking out the key and opening the door, Chen Qing placed the four jars of wine in his hands on the table, then sat on the bed, waiting for Qi Yi to arrive.

About ten minutes later.

Chen Qing, whose [God] value had increased to 3.5, moved his ears slightly and heard footsteps coming from the corridor outside the room.

From far to near, and finally stopped at the door.

The next second, Chen Qing heard the sound of the key being inserted into the keyhole and turned.

"Click."

With the sound of unlocking a door, Qi Yi pushed the door open and walked in.

"hurry up."

Qi Yi walked into the hotel room and said with a cold expression.

At the same time, she closed the door.

"it is good."

Seeing that she was still in a bad mood, Chen Qing responded first, then stood up and walked to the table, split the wine he bought for practicing, and then drank a jar.

Afterwards, when he was opening the second jar of wine, he said, "Senior Sister, if I want to use the training methods you mentioned before, what should I pay attention to?"

Qi Yi, who had originally looked indifferent and flexed her knuckles, seemed to be "ready to fight". After hearing his words, she was startled at first, then narrowed her eyes and said, "Why? Do you want to practice with those methods?"

"Ah."

Chen Qing nodded and said with a smile: "In fact, I didn't agree to it right away because I was not familiar with you at that time, and those methods sounded dangerous, so I was a little scared. But during this period of time, you have been helping me practice so selflessly every day, I think we should be familiar with each other. I believe that you will not harm me, so I think I can try those methods you mentioned."

"Yeah."

Qi Yi heard this and said something noncommittal at first, then continued with narrowed eyes and said: "Why do I feel that you want to use this matter to please me because you feel guilty?"

"Senior sister, you still don't believe me."

Chen Qing sighed helplessly and said, "The big commotion in East City was really not caused by me!"

"hehe."

Qi Yi chuckled, then opened her squinting eyes, her expression returned to being cold again, and asked, "Are you sure you really want to use those external conditions to assist in practicing? I remind you, once you start, there is no turning back."

"determine."

Chen Qing nodded and said, "However, I still have some things to deal with. I wonder if Senior Sister can wait for me for a few days?"

"What's going on in East City?"

Qi Yi suddenly said another sentence.

Upon hearing this, Chen Qing could only sigh helplessly again: "Senior Sister..."

"okay!"

Qi Yi interrupted him directly and said, "I don't want to listen to your excuses. Tell me when you're done. Those methods also require some preparation time. Let's start practicing today."

Speaking of this, she urged Chen Qing again.

Chen Qing, who was interrupted, opened his mouth several times, but in the end he only uttered one word: "Okay."

After that, Chen Qing drank the second jar of wine, took off his shirt, shoes and socks, and lay flat on the bed in the hotel room.

Qi Yi also rolled up her sleeves, took out a rubber band to tie up her hair, walked to the end of the bed, and started today's acupoint massage.

And sure enough!
After Chen Qing agreed to use those unconventional auxiliary methods to practice, today Qi Yi's acupoint massage intensity was finally not that strong...
