Cosmic Demon

Chapter 129 Qin Qilin, Tan Erhu

The Operations Department is the front line of the Inspection Department, and its welfare benefits are very high, only inferior to those of the officials in the General Affairs Department.

The entire floor of training ground is equivalent to a "large gym" specifically for their exercise.

There is a laundry room and shower room downstairs, and a supermarket and cafe next to it. You can use them for free and spend as you like by showing your relevant ID from the Operations Department.

It has to be said that the Inspection Department, as the most powerful right-hand man of the Security Bureau, does have sufficient funding.

"Student Qin, have you ever fought with anyone?"

Tan Cong looked at Qin Shi, who jumped lightly onto the stage and landed silently on the ground. His eyes changed involuntarily and his admiration became even stronger.

It is not an easy task to control your body well and adapt to every bit of force.

This requires repeated practice and repeated familiarity.

Not only do you have to invest a lot of time and energy, but you also have to be able to endure loneliness and tolerate the monotonous and boring process.

Even in the old martial arts schools, there are very few inheritors who are willing to persist in this kind of hard training just to dominate the body.

"No, but I've heard my master mention it a few times, so I have a general understanding of it."

Qin Shi stood on the flat platform with no protection on all sides, occupying a corner as a foothold.

The so-called "fighting strength" is the way of competition in the martial arts world in the old era.

The practitioners in those martial arts schools follow many rules and regulations.

Such as going on stage to fight and showing no mercy.

For them, going on stage and signing the petition means risking their lives, and life and death hang on a thin line.

But in daily interactions, one is excited to see prey, and when encountering a strong opponent, one can't help but want to measure who is better.

But the two had no grudge against each other, and it would be too extreme to rashly draw blood and create a feud.

Therefore, the relatively mild model of cooperation and comparison has emerged.

The former is that the practitioner hides his palms in his sleeves, and by touching and grasping them, he can tell whether his kung fu is good enough;

As for the latter, it was much the same, with both hands and arms raised, like bulls wrestling.

Release the internal strength, fight against each other, waste time, and compete in skills.

"Haha, it's okay. We are just communicating in a friendly manner. Don't feel pressured."

Tan Cong laughed heartily.

It is obvious that this tiger in action is a martial arts fanatic.

"Please give me more advice, Officer Tan."

Qin Shi was quite polite and imitated the martial arts practitioners of the old era and performed the ancient ritual of clasping fists.

"Come on! Let me see how the young heroes of the old martial arts school compare to the Qi Guangheng university students from twenty years ago!"

Tan Cong's blood boiled. He rubbed his hands, took a few steps forward, and opened his arms as if in a grappling posture.

Stand with your feet in a horse stance, slowly lower your center of gravity and focus on one point.

This is the starting move in ancient wrestling.

Qin Shi followed suit, standing on the tips of his feet, spreading his knees outward, keeping his waist and hips together, and looking the other person straight in the face.

The distance between the two men gradually shortened, and with a bang, their palms collided heavily, like a cannon being fired from a barrel, shaking the arena!
This commotion instantly attracted the rest of the operations department personnel.

Watching the fun seemed to be the nature of living things. They put down their tools one after another and gathered in groups of three or four.

It was discovered that the person standing on the ring was Tan Cong.

Some people were surprised:

"Instructor Tan! He's looking for someone to practice with again! Who is so unlucky to be abused by Instructor Tan again?"

The young man next to him frowned:
"The opponent is very young. He looks like a freshman college student? Or a high school student?"

Everyone knew that Tan Cong was not a bad person who would bully the weak, so they were very curious.

"Qin Shi, classmate Qin!"

Someone spotted another young man.

It was none other than Wei Zheguang from Chenghua Branch.

As soon as he spoke, he was stared at by several people.

"Old Wei, do you know him?"

"What's the story?"

"You are so young, aren't you? You don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is, are you going to challenge Instructor Tan?"

Wei Zheguang shook his head and said:
"Student Qin is very capable. A few days ago, Niutou was beaten to pieces, Snakeboy's head was smashed, and Gray Viper was brain dead... It was all done by Student Qin. He is a senior high school student and has already obtained a third-level temporary certificate. He is definitely a genius!"

The guy who eliminated the three evils?

Still a high school student?

This is fucking outrageous!
The rest of the people were skeptical, especially when they learned the student's identity.

It's hard to imagine the tough guy who beat the snake to death with that pretty face.

While they were talking, Qin Shi and Tan Cong, who had stepped onto the stage, had already fought for the second time.

The first time they collided, they were more of a test, not using any skills, but simply exerting their strength.

"Student Qin is very strong. His physical fitness has almost reached 50 points of vitality."

Tan Cong's expectations grew stronger and stronger. He pushed his hands slowly, as if the air was heavy and stagnant. A heavy force was flowing, trying to stick to Qin Shi and throw him off.

"Powerful and solid, the strength that Officer Tan has developed is really as heavy as a mountain. If he raises his fist and smashes it down, even a steel door that is more than ten centimeters thick will be smashed through!"

Qin Shi's palms felt slightly hot, as if he felt something. If he was stuck, it would be difficult to break free.

After Ren You's training, he made great progress in using his strength.

The change of strength, called "True Energy Qi", instantly runs along with the breath, fast and quick.

The fierce and ferocious force suddenly turned into lightness and flexibility. The five fingers grabbed into the air and the palm was empty, like an ocean eye swallowing up the raging waves. It actually pulled Tan Cong's sticky force away and removed it to the side!
“What a flexible change!”

Tan Cong became interested, and quickly retracted his palm, making a retreat gesture, then clenched his fist and fired like a cannon!
Boom!
The atmosphere made a dull explosion, and it was ejected like a solid iron ball and fell towards the middle gate of Qin Shi.

Because it is a competition, not a fight.

The punch was not fast, but it contained a very fierce explosive force, like a gunpowder explosion, giving people a powerful momentum that could not be stopped.

"Instructor Tan is very serious!"

The young man from the Operations Department narrowed his eyes, finding it hard to believe.

A young man who could be treated like this by Tan Cong must be very skilled.

Those combat experts in the Operations Department who thought they were the best usually got knocked down after only two rounds, and they didn’t even know how they lost.

"This punch is hard to block..."

Wei Zheguang bared his teeth. He had learned fighting from Tan Cong for some time and knew very well that Tan was a man who did not hold back when hitting. If Qin was hurt, Chen Yun, the tigress, might get furious.

"Can stop it!"

Qin Shi did not retreat. He placed his left hand on the elbow of his right arm as if to provide firm support.

The results of practicing "Inner and Outer Heroic Qigong" are instantly revealed!
As the saying goes, those who are strong inside have smooth tendons, delicate skin, and great strength.

Qin Shi, who had taken the mineral element, completely reached the level of being strong both inside and out.

It was not difficult to do what was described in the exercise: "If you put your fingers together, you can penetrate the cow's belly; if you tilt your palm, you can break the cow's head; if you put your fist together, you can break the tiger's shins." Qin Shi straightened his spine and continued to push his palm out, his breath was steady and not exposed.

The palm of his hand rotated slightly, as if fiddling with a ball. He did not catch Tan Cong's fist head-on, but wrapped it around him like a piece of cloth in mid-air, following the explosive force.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Shi's chest sank, causing his strength to dissipate by three points. He took advantage of the situation to push outwards, eliminating Tan Cong's attack.

In less than two minutes, the two sides exchanged blows, showing superb skills in using their strength.

"Great! Heroes are born young! Qin, if it were twenty years ago, Qiguang Hengda would have specially recruited you!"

Tan Cong was too excited. As a member of the old martial arts school, he could hardly contain his joy when he met a top talent like Qin Shi.

"Twenty years later, Qiguang Hengda will also recruit me."

Qin Shi smiled but didn't say what was in his heart.

When I first learned traditional martial arts from Lao Liang, he said that Hong Sheng's most outstanding physique was the "dragon tendons, tiger bones, and unicorn strength" and the "bee waist, ape arms, and mantis legs."

I am all set now.

The variability and comprehensiveness of the true energy corresponds to the Qilin power.

"Instructor Tan, I'm also a little excited, and I'd like you to take over."

Qin Shi, who had successfully resolved several attacks in succession, took a deep breath and his eyes were sharp.

He also wanted to verify the results of his recent hard training.

"Come on! Don't hold back! Qin, I'm thick-skinned, don't worry about getting hurt!"

Tan Cong was full of confidence. Even if he did not use the professional-level life field, he could withstand Qin Shi's attack just by relying on the physical fitness developed by his vitality.

After all, the gap in strength is there!

"Then I'm here."

Qin Shi listened to the advice. Since Officer Tan said so, he had to give him face.

He adjusted his breathing, and although his breath was steady, like the billowing hot mist trapped in a stove, his entire body was already scorching hot, causing his muscles to constantly tense and contract.

I saw the slender fingers lightly clenched into a fist, and then the waist and arms rotated inward and punched forward.

At first glance, it doesn't look impressive!
Everyone outside the ring couldn't see what was so powerful, but Tan Cong's face changed.

He is able to be the combat instructor of the Operations Department and can subdue this bunch of young and energetic troublemakers, so he must have real skills.

In traditional martial arts, there has always been a saying that "the lighter you practice, the looser you are; the harder you hit, the more you collapse"!

Only those who cannot control their strength will punch hard, because if they cannot hold the energy in their body, they will not be able to suppress the violent force.

A truly top-notch fighting master who knows how to use his strength can hold the power firmly. The power can flow to his limbs and he can use it however he wants. Even a strand of hair can pierce a steel plate!
"Shock hammer force!"

Tan Cong's skin tightened all over. In fact, his five senses were extremely sharp, giving warning signs that Qin Shi's punch had already posed a threat!
He knew very well that the force of a hammer was more powerful than that of a cannon!

Qin Shi seemed to be clenching his fist, but in fact his fist was hollow, so it looked loose, but in fact, when he was about to die, his muscles and bones moved together, and all eight sections and nine joints of his body vibrated in coordination, as if they were twisted into one piece.

If this punch were to land solidly, even the hard bluestone as big as a calf would be broken and shattered into pieces!
If it comes to a real fight, Tan Cong can dodge, but the competition is about who can relieve the force, borrow the force, hit the force, and exert the force.

At this critical moment, he could only take a deep breath and raise his fist to meet the attack!
boom!
It was like a bolt of thunder exploding out of nowhere!

At the point where the two fists collided, the air rushed like white waves and turned into hurricanes!

Then the solid ring seemed unable to bear it and made a "crack" sound. It was torn apart by the force of the two men's footholds!

Qin Shi's body shook, but fortunately his twelve tendons were thick and tough, and he recovered and resolved the problem without moving his feet or losing his center of gravity.

Tan Cong also swayed, and his feet took root on the ground, as solid as a rock.

The strong wind blew past, clothes stuck to each other, and the faces of both parties were calm, as if they were relaxed, showing the demeanor of masters.

Everyone in the operations department below couldn't help but wonder what kind of monsters these were!

Tan Cong is fine, he has always been known as the "Martial Arts Coach" and his strength is obvious to all.

Qin Shi is of this age and this level, but he is on par with Instructor Tan.

It's simply a monster!
"No wonder I heard that the Hengzhou Martial Arts Association intends to devote all its efforts to training Qin! Your talent is indeed...unprecedented!"

Tan Cong stood up straight, with his hands behind his back, avoiding the observation of everyone in the Operations Department.

His knuckles were red, swollen and painful, and even with his professional physique, it was unbearable.

"I have benefited a lot from this exchange. Officer Tan's use of energy is very good, and there is a lot to learn from him."

Qin Shi said sincerely.

"Haha, come to the Operations Department often and we can communicate as much as we want."

Qin Shi nodded. It was a rare opportunity to meet a professional martial artist from the old martial arts school. He should ask for more advice.

"Tan Erhu! You've made it. You have nothing better to do than bully the newbies?"

Before the two of them left the stage, Chen Yun rushed into the training ground with a fierce look in her eyes.

In her opinion, it was pure bullying for the professional-level Tan Cong to compete with Qin Shi, who had not even been promoted to a professional level!
"Inspector Chen, don't be angry. My classmate Qin and I are both from the old martial arts school. We can communicate in a friendly manner..."

Tan Cong said embarrassedly.

"If you damage public property, I'll pay for it! As for classmate Qin, my buddy Lao Huang from the equipment department will pick out a level 3 bulletproof vest and a level 1 stab-proof vest later!"

Chen Yun looked at Qin Shi carefully and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was not injured and did not look embarrassed.

"You are sincere! Everyone in your Operations Division Group 2 is an elite! Xiao Qin is a specialist hired by our Group 4, so don't get your eyes on him! Xiao Qin, let's go, I'll take you to get the equipment!"

Chen Yun was in a hurry. He came and left quickly, and took away Qin Shi who was being watched by everyone.

"Old Wei, is this the pretty boy boyfriend of Inspector Chen that you mentioned before?"

Someone from the Operations Department asked jokingly.

"Bah! Stop spreading rumors! They are siblings, calling them sister and brother, you are so filthy!"

Wei Zheguang stiffened his neck, eager to explain.

"I know what you mean! It's not unfair for you to lose to such a genius! You're really abnormal. You didn't get abused even when you met Instructor Tan..."

……

……

"Sister Yun, why are you calling Officer Tan, Tan Erhu?"

After leaving the training venue, Qin Shi and Chen Yun took the escalator downstairs and sat in the cafe next to them.

"Old Tan calls himself the Tiger of the Operations Department, but above him there is another Tiger of the Inspection Department, so he can only be called the 'Second Tiger'."

Chen Yun ordered a cold drink and asked for a cup of milk tea for Qin Shi.

"The Tiger of the Inspection Department... should be Old Chen."

Qin Shi thought about it and decided that the only person worthy of this title was Chen Ruofu, the top leader of the Tai'an metropolitan area.

"My father told me that you have enrolled at the Nanhuang Dojo?"

Chen Yun looked up and asked.

"Learning from Teacher Ren doesn't count as becoming his disciple."

Qin Shi shook his head, not knowing that he was the designated next successor.

"Anyway, since you are close to the Nanhuang Dojo, you have to be careful of trouble. Twenty years ago, when the new martial arts in Hengzhou were replaced by the old martial arts, a bloody conflict broke out..."

Chen Yun reminded.
