Starting from a short stick, becoming the master of the universe

Chapter 41 Six Consecutive Kills

Jiang Cheng was deeply moved when he heard what Mrs. Chen said.

However, it is not easy for Mrs. Chen to make money, not to mention that what he lacks is not a small amount of money.

"Mrs. Chen, there's no need to be so anxious. Just go ahead and buy a premium membership."

He smiled and said, "After purchasing a regular membership, I don't have to worry about being robbed by those thugs on the way back. Even if I meet the Wild Wolf Gang, they won't do anything to me."

"So that means there's still a shortfall of 3,000 yuan?"

Mrs. Chen seemed not to hear and continued talking to herself.

"Okay, wait a minute, Sister Chen will go back and get the money for you."

"Hey! Mrs. Chen!"

Jiang Cheng was startled and quickly stood up and grabbed her.

"Mrs. Chen, I really didn't lie to you. Ordinary membership is enough, and if you want to become a senior member, you just need to pay the difference later. With my current income, I will definitely be able to get it together before the end of the month."

"Yes, Mrs. Chen, you have helped us so many times, you really don't need it this time." The old man also advised.

Three thousand yuan is really not a small amount of money.

"Xiao Cheng, since you said that you can get the remaining three thousand by the end of the month, then I will give you the three thousand first, and you can go directly to buy the premium membership. Isn't it better to get it all in one go?"

Mrs. Chen asked back.

"This one……"

Jiang Cheng was a little at a loss for words.

Because that’s the truth, it’s indeed the truth.

but……

"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry." Mrs. Chen continued, "I've saved a little money over the years. Even if I lend you this 3000 yuan, it won't affect Xiaoyue and I's lives. Besides, you'll pay it back in a few days. What else do you have to worry about? Or do you not trust Mrs. Chen?"

"No, no, Mrs. Chen, how could I not trust you?"

Jiang Cheng withdrew his hand with a helpless expression.

"My grandmother and I have already troubled you so much, and we feel bad that we need your help again this time."

"What's the big deal? Our two families have been friends for decades. Isn't it normal for us to help each other?"

Mrs. Chen smiled and said, "I'll be back soon."

After saying that, she turned and walked out of the house, heading towards her home.

"Mrs. Chen is a good person."

The old man looked touched.

Three thousand yuan, I can lend it to you at any time.

I'm afraid there won't be another person in this world who treats them like this.

"Yes."

Jiang Cheng didn't know what to say.

He told Mrs. Chen about this just to let her know, and had no intention of lending her money. As a result, he owed her a favor again.

But thinking back carefully, the reward I gave was just a pound of pork and a pound of eggs last night.

"I still have to make more money. Things will be much better by next month." Jiang Cheng said to himself.

"Small town."

At this time, the old man asked worriedly, "Is that senior membership really that powerful? If I buy this, I don't have to pay the Wild Wolf Gang anymore?"

"Yes, grandma, the gangs are afraid of those martial arts schools on the street." Jiang Cheng explained.

"That's good."

The old man nodded, but he still felt a little uneasy.

The main thing is 5,000 yuan, which is too much.

Not to mention that three thousand of them were borrowed.

She was afraid that Jiang Cheng would encounter a scammer, but she felt relieved when she thought that even Mrs. Chen agreed with this decision.

In less than three minutes, footsteps were heard outside the house.

Mrs. Chen went and came back. After entering, she carefully closed the door, then took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and after opening it, a stack of banknotes appeared.

"Xiaocheng, here are three thousand yuan, count them."

"No need, I trust Sister Chen." Jiang Cheng said hurriedly.

"It's not a matter of belief or not. What if I counted less and you're short of one or two hundred?" Mrs. Chen urged.

"Ok."

Jiang Cheng had no choice but to take inventory.

Not more, not less, exactly three thousand yuan.

"Is that enough? If not, just tell me."

"Enough is enough."

Jiang Cheng nodded repeatedly in fear, "I have saved two thousand yuan in the past few days, plus the three thousand from you, Sister Chen, it's exactly five thousand."

"That's good."

Mrs. Chen finally smiled. "If you can buy a premium membership, then buy one. It's so convenient. At the end of the month, you don't have to pay the management fee or the booth fee. On the way back, you don't have to worry about being robbed. Your grandmother and I will feel more at ease. You can keep the money and come over after breakfast."

"I'll wait until there are more people before I go over. It's just a little after seven o'clock now." Jiang Cheng glanced at the time.

"Okay, hide the money on the way there, and keep a natural expression so that no one can tell anything," Mrs. Chen advised.

"Ah."

Jiang Cheng responded.

After breakfast, Jiang Cheng rested for a while and then continued to practice double sticks.

Time passed little by little, and when it was almost nine o'clock, the level of double sticks had improved to proficiency.

At this moment, a large number of memories appeared in his mind again. It seemed that he had been practicing with these two sticks for a year.

He already felt extremely proficient in simple combinations, such as slashing down four times in a row, and he swung them around like a windmill.

At the same time, I also learned more complex combinations of techniques.

For example, the closed six-stroke chop.

In the previous four-stroke chop, the preparatory posture was open.

This time, the preparatory posture is closed, which means hiding one stick under the armpit like holding a nunchaku.

First, chop straight with the right hand and place it on the left shoulder, then chop back with the left hand, and then go around the head with the right hand and chop straight and place it under the armpit. This returns to the closed style, but it is a mirror image of the previous one.

Then chop forward with your left hand and place it on your right shoulder, then chop backward with your right hand, and finally chop forward with your left hand around your head.

After completing these three steps, you return to the initial preparation position and repeat the cycle over and over again.

When practicing for the first time, every movement must be in place and able to make a sound of breaking through the air. Later on, the movements became continuous, like an electric fan, so fast that only the afterimage could be seen.

Jiang Cheng exhaled slowly.

If you master this move, it can be likened to a double-blade meat grinder. The efficiency of knocking down the enemy is far beyond that of a single short stick.

After resting for a while, he tried to practice it. The movements between every three chops were smooth, but there was a pause when connecting them.

If it is really in actual combat, it is better to use double downward chops, double upward chops, double horizontal sweeps and four-way chops smoothly.

"Xiaocheng, it's nine o'clock. Should we go to the boxing gym?"

The old man glanced at the clock on the wall and reminded.

"Well, I'm ready to go."

Jiang Cheng smiled and put the two sticks behind his back and pulled down his clothes to cover them.

He walked to the bed, opened the box, took out all the money inside, checked his pockets to make sure there were no holes, and then put the money back in.

"Grandma, I'm coming."

"Go ahead and be safe on the road."

The old man followed him out of the house and watched Jiang Cheng leave.

When passing by the next door, Jiang Cheng also said hello, then walked towards the street with his head held high.
