Cosmic Professional Gladiator Chapter 8: Back home


A few days later, the Jiangnan Provincial Training Team returned, and Xu Jingming also left the Xingkong Dou Pavilion, preparing to return to his hometown.

In the afternoon, Binhai North High Speed ​​Rail Station.

“You are alone in Binhai City, take care of yourself.” Xu Jingming and Li Miaomiao hugged and separated, Li Miaomiao was wearing a mask and was accompanied by a female assistant. Although Xu Jingming has entered the World Martial Arts Competition twice, once in the top sixteen and once in the top eight, but after all, he has rarely shown his face publicly, and few people can recognize him when he walks on the street. But Li Miaomiao is different. She is very popular. Even if she is very Buddhist and only broadcasts live once a month, she still has millions of fans. If she does not wear a mask, she is afraid that she will be recognized quickly.

“I estimate that there are still two or three days left. All arrangements will be made, and then I will be able to go back. Sister Kong has already gone to Mingyue City ahead of time, and their houses are all rented.” Li Miaomiao said, Sister Kong It is one of Li Miaomiao’s two assistants.

“Xiao Zeng, you must take good care of your boss these days.” Xu Jingming said to the thin female assistant ‘Xiao Zeng’.

“As ordered.” Xiao Zeng immediately answered with his chest up.

Xu Jingming nodded with a smile, and hugged his girlfriend again.

“Send me a message when you get home.” Li Miaomiao urged.

“Okay, I’m off.”

Xu Jingming turned around, carried a backpack, passed the checkpoint, and went to take the high-speed rail.

Li Miaomiao took the female assistant and watched Xu Jingming’s back disappear into the passage before leaving.

******

On the high-speed rail, Xu Jingming was sitting in his seat, with a three-foot light curtain suspended in front of him.

The light curtain can only be seen clearly from the angle of Xu Jingming, other angles are not bright enough and will be deformed.

“Dear relatives, friends, brothers and sisters, from now on, I will settle in Mingyue City! Welcome everyone to visit Mingyue City, I will definitely entertain you all the way!” Xu Jingming sent a message in the social circle, and soon there were Reply one by one.

“Junior Brother, a smooth journey!” This message is Senior Brother Fang Xinglong, the owner of Xingkong Dou Pavilion.

“Old Xu, have you left Binhai?” This is the former teammate of the national team and a good brother “Heng Fang”.

“Senior brother, you have finally returned to Mingyue City. Brothers have long been eager to see it!” This is “Zhu Tong”, the junior brother of Mingyue City’s Bajimen.

“I’m back, but come and see me earlier.” This is “Dai Tongda”, the doorkeeper of Mingyue City, and one of Xu Jingming’s two masters when he was young! When he was young, Xu Jingming’s enlightening master was his father, and then under the guidance of his father, he worshipped Dai Tongda as his teacher.

“I heard that Mingyue City is a very beautiful city. If you have the opportunity, you must go to travel.” This is Mickie “Hunter”, a world-class martial arts master from abroad. Mickie once studied in Xia State and is proficient in Chinese.

“The master is going back to his hometown, so he must treat a guest to dinner. Many old classmates want to meet you.” It was Wu Wei, a high school classmate.

Over time, one message after another appeared.

There are old classmates, relatives, teammates in the provincial and national teams, some masters and friends in the world martial arts circle who do not know each other, and some martial arts circle agents, coaches, and apprentices who have taught themselves. .

Xu Jingming looked at these messages, smiled, and responded to his friends one by one.

In the capital, a Chinese-style villa.

Liu Hai, who was eating the third meal of the day, was also looking at the social circle on the light screen. When he retreats every year, he usually looks at the social circle when he eats to learn about the outside world.

“Jing Ming left Binhai and returned to Mingyue City?” Liu Hai knew, “I was forced by Cheng Zihao from Tiger Shark Group.”

“National key cultivation list.”

Liu Hai tapped the screen lightly, looked at the candidates on the list, shook his head helplessly, “I found a few old friends, but they all said that, but Jing Ming was still brushed out.”

“There are 20 people on the list, 12 martial arts masters, and 5 other fighting styles. Only three places can compete… In the end, these three places were won by two professional martial arts players and one professional Sanda player. .”

“Professional Sanda player, a Grand Slam player.”

“Two professional martial arts players, one has won the fourth place in the world martial arts competition! The other has entered the top eight in the world three times, and the results are better than Jing Ming.”

This time the list is too special, Liu Hai only has the right to recommend, he has tried his best.

The scenery outside the window whizzes by.

Xu Jingming raised his head and looked out the window. After chatting in the social circle for a while, he had already entered the boundaries of Mingyue City.

From Binhai City to Mingyue City, it only takes 35 minutes by high-speed rail.

“Back to my hometown.” Xu Jingming was in a good mood. At a glance, there were countless weeping willows by the river outside the high-speed rail window. The scenery of Jiangnan Water Town is refreshing.

Although in terms of economy, Mingyue City can’t compare with Xia State’s economic center city “Binhai City”, but in terms of livability, Mingyue City is much stronger. The whole city seems to be a city built in a park. The pace of the city is slow, and many elderly people from all over the country have moved here to retire.

“Mingyue City, I’m back.” After leaving the high-speed rail station and taking the driverless smart car, Xu Jingming went straight to his parents’ residence. It was a historical villa area. Before he was eighteen years old, almost all live here.

In the villa complex.

Xu Jingming was walking in the alleyway. The stone bricks on the ground had traces of time, some were old ones, some were probably damaged, and the property had replaced them with new ones. One wall had vague graffiti marks. , caught Xu Jingming’s eyes, and couldn’t help but reach out and touch it.

This graffiti was painted on the wall of my neighbor Li Da Niu’s house when I was five years old. After so many years, there are still vague traces left.

Walking down this alley, I thought of the scene when I was a child carrying a schoolbag to school, and my father picked me up to go to school. At that time, robots were not so intelligent. Mom was in charge of cooking and Dad was in charge of picking up and dropping off.

“Twenty years have passed in a blink of an eye.” Xu Jingming walked to the familiar courtyard door and pushed it gently. The door was unlocked and opened ahead of schedule.

Xu Jingming walked to the front yard. The front yard is a small courtyard of more than 30 square meters. Xu Jingming practiced martial arts here for a long time when he was a child.

“Dad, Mom.” Xu Jingming shouted.

“Jing Ming is back!”

“It’s Jing Ming who is back!”

A voice came from inside the house, Xu Jingming pushed open the door of the living room, and saw that his parents had already stood up, Xu’s mother was wearing pajamas and slippers, and Xu’s father was wearing short-sleeved pants. After all, in summer, it is also very casual at home.

“Jing Ming.” Mother Xu hugged her son happily when she saw her son, “I want to kill your mother, what about Miao Miao? Are you alone?”

“Miaomiao will be back in two days.” Xu Jingming said with a smile.

Father Xu walked out, looked at Xu Jingming, and asked, “Where’s your weapon?”

“It’s all delivered, because there are a lot of things, all of which are large and heavy, so they won’t arrive until tomorrow, and they will all be delivered to the new house.” Xu Jingming said.

Father Xu nodded.

Father Xu, whose name is Xu Hong, is about the same height as Xu Jingming, but he is much more burly and burly. In Bajimen’s stubbing exercises, it is like hitting tree stumps with arms, chest, shoulders, back, elbows, etc. There is also a one-arm handstand for the main arm. One-arm handstand is very difficult. To simplify it, you can use “handstand”, and then simplify it to “push-up pile”… There is also a Haidilaoyue exercise that exercises both legs…

The various kung fu of Bajimen is to make every part of the body have strength, fierce as a bear and tiger.

Father Xu, even with a strong back, he stood there with a domineering aura.

“Dad, you are going to lose weight.” Xu Jingming said, “You are over two hundred pounds now.”

“It’s two hundred and ten pounds.” Father Xu shook his head and said, “I can’t help it. I’m getting old and my back hurts frequently, so I have to take it easy when I practice. I only practice for two hours a day. If not, my weight will increase. In the past, I have been kept at 190 pounds.”

“If you have less time to practice, I will let you eat less, or eat and eat, can you not gain weight?” Xu’s mother’s figure is enough to be envied by many young girls, only with wrinkles on her face and some white hair on her head , revealing Xu’s mother’s age.

Xu’s mother is a painter. She traveled all over the world with Xu’s father when she was young, and later settled in Mingyue City together.

“I’m used to eating, but I can’t control it.” Father Xu smiled.

“You, you were too aggressive when you were young. You went to visit those fighting schools around the world, and you often have to learn from each other.” Xu mother shook her head, “You were injured all over, you can handle it when you are young, but you are old when you are old. You can feel it. It hurts here and there. Jing Ming, you should take this as a warning.

“Yes, fighting with weapons in martial arts is very dangerous.” Father Xu nodded as well. When his son was 20 years old, his leg was broken by his opponent in the arena of the World Martial Arts Competition. The couple panicked when they saw it off the field.

“Don’t worry, Mom and Dad, I have already settled down in Mingyue City. Who should I go to fight?” Xu Jingming said with a smile.

“Jing Ming is back?” A voice came from upstairs.

“Grandpa?” Xu Jingming was very happy.

“Your grandfather knew that you were coming back today, so he came here early in the morning. He was sleepy in the afternoon and took a nap on it.” Mother Xu said, “I guess he heard our chatting.”

Xu Jingming put down his backpack, walked to the atrium of the villa, and saw the white-haired old man walking down, his footwork was fairly steady.

“Grandpa.” Xu Jingming walked to the stairs.

“It’s good to be back, isn’t Mingyue City more beautiful and more comfortable than Binhai City?” The white-haired old man narrowed his eyes with a smile~IndoMTL.com~ Of course he was very happy when he saw his eldest grandson.

“I won’t leave when I come back this time, and I will spend a lot of time with Grandpa.” Xu Jingming also felt sorry for Grandpa.

Grandpa, whose name is Xu Guishun, came from a rural family and became a professional e-sports player when he was young. The game nickname is “Unknown Master”.

Back then, it was still a mobile game! Grandpa also won Fmvp once, and his career income was quite high. Later, he became a game anchor after retiring, and he saved a lot of money over the years. Only then did the Xu family save the foundation.

It’s just that Grandpa is eighty-eight years old, and his health is getting worse and worse.

“Come on, eat some fruit.” Dad and Mom, holding two large fruit plates, grapes, bananas, and watermelons, are all ready.

“Eat the fruit.” Mr. Xu was also in a good mood. He sat down and picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Xu Jingming, “Try the watermelon from my hometown. These are all local melons.”

“Grandpa, I’ll do it myself.” Xu Jingming also sat down and picked up the watermelon.

I still remember that when I was a child, my grandfather often took him to play. At that time, when my mother was very young and my father was in his prime, he often took a group of apprentices to practice martial arts.

Now, my grandfather is old, wrinkled, and age spots on his face.

My mother also has a lot of gray hair, and the wrinkles are hard to hide. Although my father was burly and stout, but after all, he was sixty years old, and he also had twilight.

“No one can stop you from getting old, sick and dying.” Xu Jingming thought, “I am growing up, but my parents are getting old, and my grandfather is a year younger.”

When I got home, I felt the warmth of my family, but Xu Jingming felt the ruthlessness of time even more.

“These fruits were bought by your father just this morning. They are all the freshest.” Mother Xu said.

“It’s delicious.” Xu Jingming ate, smiling happily.
