“Mo Hua!” Bai Zisheng said happily, “Did you bring food?
“No……”
“Then you came to play with me?”
“No… I’m here to see Mr. Zhuang.” Mo Hua said truthfully.
Bai Zisheng was disappointed.
“Have you finished your homework?” Mo Hua asked.
“Not yet, almost, I don’t want to do it.” After Bai Zisheng finished speaking, he lay back again.
Mo Hua’s eyes lit up, “Do you have nothing to do now?”
“That’s right.” Bai Zisheng nodded.
“Then let’s spar!”
“Discuss!” Bai Zisheng sat upright excitedly, but glanced at Mo Hua, who was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, had meager spiritual power and was thin, and frowned and said, “What are you discussing with me?”
Mo Hua whispered: “Let’s learn skills.”
Bai Zisheng was a little uninterested, “That’s so boring.”
“If you don’t want to, forget it.” Mo Hua turned to leave.
Bai Zisheng stood up quickly, held Mo Hua back, and said: “It’s not boring, it’s not boring, it’s better than me lying around doing nothing.”
Bai Zisheng thought for a moment and then asked: “But, how can we compare? Shenfa… what can be compared?”
“I’ve learned a new body skill to save my life.” Mo Hua took out a cheap jade pendant, passed it through with a strip of cloth, tied the two ends, and hung it around his neck.
“Come and grab this jade pendant from me. If you grab it, you win.”
“Is there any prize?”
Mo Hua was a little confused: “I don’t have many spirit stones.”
Bai Zisheng waved his hand, “I don’t care about spiritual stones.”
“Then if you win, I’ll treat you to beef and a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed rice.”
“make a deal!”
Bai Zisheng was very happy that he could eat, play, and learn his body skills. He thought for a while and suddenly discussed with Mo Hua: “Let’s add another box of crabapple cakes, for Zi Xi.”
“Okay.” Mo Hua said cheerfully.
The two of them drew a boundary in the open space on the side of the big locust tree, and stood at one end.
Mo Hua said “start” and saw Bai Zisheng’s eyes change. He was dressed in white and charging straight towards him like a tiger, at an extremely fast speed.
Mo Hua’s eyelids twitched, he held his breath and concentrated, his consciousness predicted Bai Zisheng’s trajectory, he turned sideways slightly and hid. Then he touched the ground with his feet and gently exited the land of three feet.
“Huh?”
Bai Zisheng was surprised. He thought he would be able to catch Mo Hua now, but he didn’t expect Mo Hua to move away from him with just a slight movement.
“Where did you learn this movement technique?”
“Taught me by an unknown, kind-hearted uncle who was passing by.” Mo Hua said.
Bai Zisheng was confused and didn’t bother to find out what happened, but his competitive spirit was aroused and his eyes became brighter.
“Be careful!”
Bai Zisheng stepped on the ground to use his strength, and the light golden spiritual power on his body flashed. In a trance, he appeared in front of the ink painting again, reaching out his right hand to grab the jade pendant around the ink painting’s neck.
Mo Hua leaned back, and when he was about to fall to the ground, he used his spiritual power to pull his body and retreated lightly against the ground.
Bai Zisheng grabbed the air with one hand, turned around, and rushed towards Mo Hua at a faster speed.
Before Mo Hua could finish his move, his spiritual power could not circulate quickly enough. When he tried to change his body technique, it was already too late. He was thrown to the ground by Bai Zisheng, and the jade pendant around his neck was also snatched away.
Bai Zisheng pulled Mo Hua up and said a little guiltily: “I didn’t stop for a moment, are you okay?”
Mo Hua rubbed his arm. Although it hurt a little, it was nothing serious and said, “It’s okay, it’s just a discussion.”
Bai Zisheng was relieved at this, and then he couldn’t help shaking the jade pendant in his hand, and said with some pride: “Don’t forget the beef and snacks.”
“Yeah, yeah.” Bai Zisheng nodded repeatedly, and then said, still unfinished, “Are we still playing? No…it’s a competition!”
Bai Zisheng corrected him, saying that studying Taoism is a serious matter and is different from playing.
Mo Hua thought for a moment and shook his head regretfully, “No, the gap between our cultivation levels is too big. Even if we play several times, we will lose.”
Bai Zisheng was born in a big family outside Lizhou. His spiritual roots, martial arts and Taoist skills are all excellent. He is also a leader in his family, and his understanding is also very high. Although he sometimes looks careless, his strength is definitely good. .
Mo Hua had just circled around a few times with the passing water step, and he knew very well that with his current body skills, he could not compete with Bai Zisheng no matter what.
What’s more, Bai Zisheng’s realm is much higher than him.
Mo Hua couldn’t help but sigh.
Bai Zisheng saw that Mo Hua was a little disappointed and said, “I’ll compare my cultivation with you.”
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, “Is this okay?”
“Since it is a competition, it must be fair. Relying on your cultivation to be strong is bullying others.” Bai Zisheng said plausibly, “And what we are competing for is body skills, so we cannot rely on our cultivation, otherwise it will be boring. ”
Mo Hua nodded and said, “That’s okay, but you have to wait until I take a rest.”
Mo Hua rubbed his arms again, looked at Bai Zisheng and couldn’t help but ask: “Zi Sheng, are you a physical practitioner?”
Bai Zisheng was not happy, “You have to call me big brother!”
Mo Hua gave him a roll of his eyes.
Bai Zisheng had no choice but to secretly say:
“I plan to practice physical training, martial arts, and Taoism, but I cannot tell outsiders about this. I only told Zi Xi, and I didn’t even tell Aunt Xue.”
Mo Hua was speechless for a moment, thinking that with your character, everything is written on your face, it would be strange if Aunt Xue didn’t know…
“I heard that some geniuses from some families can cultivate both spirit and body. Can’t you?” Mo Hua asked in a low voice.
Bai Zisheng was a little disdainful, “What’s the point of dual spiritual and body cultivation? It’s neither fish nor fowl. It’s not as pure and refreshing as physical cultivation! One strength can defeat ten masters, one punch can break all kinds of magic. It doesn’t matter what dual spiritual and body cultivation is. If you mess with me, I will Break their noses with one punch!”
Mo Hua looked a little envious, he also wanted to defeat all magic with one punch.
Qian Xing had caused trouble before, and if Mo Hua had Bai Zisheng’s strength, he would have broken his nose with one punch.
It’s a pity, I can only think about it…
After Mo Hua rested, he competed several times with Bai Zisheng who had suppressed his cultivation.
The result is completely different.
Bai Zisheng’s cultivation has reached the fifth level of Qi Refining. Even though his skills and body skills are of good quality, he still lacks the support of his cultivation. Each move is obviously much slower than before.
The spiritual consciousness of the ink painting can be seen clearly.
Most of Bai Zisheng’s moves can be predicted by Mo Hua’s spiritual consciousness, and he can dodge them with a fleeting step. Occasionally, there are some extremely tricky moves, and Mo Hua has no time to dodge, so he can only admit defeat.
The two agreed that there would be twenty rounds to decide the outcome. If he could grab the jade pendant, it would be Bai Zisheng’s victory. If he couldn’t, it would be Mo Hua’s victory.
Until the evening, the two of them exchanged wins and losses. The outcome was roughly 50-50, but Bai Zisheng should still be better.
Bai Zisheng had a great time playing, and Mo Hua also gained a lot of understanding of the passing water step.
Bai Zisheng still wanted to continue the discussion, but Bai Zixi whispered “homework” on the side, which was like a cold water poured on him. Bai Zisheng had no choice but to give up. He had to finish his homework quickly while it was still dark.
Mo Hua said goodbye to them and agreed to come back tomorrow. Following Bai Zisheng’s numerous instructions, he agreed to bring wine, meat and crabapple cakes.
Everything under the big locust tree was seen by the puppet elder in the bamboo pavilion on one side.
The old man looked at Mo Hua’s retreating figure with a meaningful look in his eyes, “Is the Zhang family passing by…”
The fifth update is completed.
Happy May Day everyone.
