Chapter 144 Martial Arts + Technology = Superman? "Oh, ahem, I'm Du Ruo. This is the first time I've been recognized. Hello, are you a martial artist too?" It was the first time that Du Ruo was looked at in this way. The point was that the other person was a beautiful woman. Needless to say, this feeling was quite good, so he quickly stood up and led the way. If nothing else, just because the other person was a fan, he had to be more enthusiastic, right? "Come on, I'll show you around the house, and by the way, I can introduce you to any kind of food you want to know about." "Well, I also practice martial arts, but I don't practice like Boss Du, um, traditionally." Long Zhirou smiled, obviously very happy to see Du Ruo, and even took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Du Ruo. "Sister Zhirou is a Wuying-level athlete and has won the national championship in Tai Chi and Tai Chi sword." The girl next to her looked Du Ruo up and down, but didn't seem to see anything special. She didn't understand why Long Zhirou had the same expression as if she had seen her idol, so she added a sentence. "Wow, that's amazing. I'm sorry." Hearing this, Du Ruo couldn't help but look at Long Zhirou again. She is a Wuying-level athlete. This is very impressive. The last Wuying-level athlete Du Ruo had seen was the martial arts star Wu Jing.
And Du Ruo didn't mean anything else when he said that. He really admired them. Even though the other party practiced routines, in the eyes of real martial artists, these Wuying-level athletes were not that great, but being able to practice routines to the top was also a remarkable achievement. What's more, the opponent is practicing Tai Chi, which is a technique that can be used to train strength. As long as the opponent studies it in depth and practices the basic skills a little, he can become very powerful. It's no wonder that Du Ruo couldn't tell whether the other party was practicing dancing or martial arts. In fact, it was difficult for Du Ruo and others to tell if the other party was just practicing routines, because the other party's strength had not yet been developed. "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Boss Du. Boss Du is the real expert." Long Zhirou smiled and followed Du Ruo towards the villa. Those who only practice routines but not basic skills and fighting methods are very different from martial arts masters who practice traditional methods like Du Ruo. From the shot of Du Ruo seen in the video this morning, we can see Du Ruo's skills, which are definitely not comparable to hers. "Are you here for tourism? Or for filming?" Du Ruo didn't discuss this matter too much, but started asking about other things. "Both. I'm a small anchor and I often shoot some videos online. This time I wanted to come to Huangshan to shoot and travel at the same time." Long Zhirou always smiles when she speaks. "That's great. When you come here, besides climbing the mountain, you can't miss the tavern. There are many medicinal wines in the tavern, and you can eat at the small restaurant across the street. I can't say much about other things, but the hygiene and food are absolutely guaranteed." Du Ruo introduced it to her and also mentioned some nearby attractions and recommended them to her. Du Ruo was talking and laughing with the other two, but some people were not so happy. Xiang Yuanyuan came back from the river with a bamboo pole in one hand and a bucket in the other. Maomao followed her slowly, occasionally rubbing against Xiang Yuanyuan's feet. There was only a river shrimp in the bucket and nothing else. After all, it had only been there half an hour, so Xiang Yuanyuan couldn't help but catch the fish. When Xiang Yuanyuan came back, she saw Du Ruo and Long Zhirou talking and laughing as they walked towards the villa from a distance. For no reason, he felt a pang of sourness in his heart. Just at this moment, Maomao ran away for a while and rubbed Xiang Yuanyuan's hand. "╭(╯^╰)╮Hmph, you lick my dog!" Xiang Yuanyuan slapped Maomao's head in annoyance and muttered something. This jealousy came out of nowhere and even made Xiang Yuanyuan a little nervous.
"?" Maomao was patted and tilted his head, not understanding what was going on. However, when he saw Du Ruo not far away, he ran over happily. "Yuanyuan, you're back. Let me introduce you. This is Long Zhirou, a female hero and a Wuying-level athlete. She happens to be staying at the B&B. I'll take her to her room." Du Ruo saw Xiang Yuanyuan coming over, and thought of Long Zhirou saying that she got to know him because of Xiang Yuanyuan's video, so she took the initiative to introduce the two to each other: "This is Xiang Yuanyuan, the proprietress of the tavern." "Madam boss, I'm your fan. You're such a great drinker. I've been following you before, and I came here specially to stay." When Long Zhirou saw Xiang Yuanyuan, the smile on her face remained unchanged, and the most important thing was that she was very sweet-mouthed. "Hello, Wu Ying level, that's amazing, come to the bar tonight for a drink, I'll treat you." There was no jealousy on Xiang Yuanyuan's face at all. She greeted Long Zhirou happily, as if she had seen a good sister. "Ahem, Dragon..." Du Ruo coughed and was about to speak. "Just call me Zhirou." Long Zhirou took the initiative to speak, so Du Ruo didn't have to worry about how to address her. "Okay, Zhirou, Yuanyuan has liver damage recently, so I'm afraid she can't drink." "Okay, okay, I don't drink. I'll ask Sister Zhirou to drink some good wine and I'll drink soda." Before Du Ruo could finish her words, Xiang Yuanyuan at the side shoved the bucket and bamboo pole in her hands into Du Ruo's hands and interrupted her, emphasizing her tone when she mentioned Sister Zhirou. "Then you guys chat. I'll have to look after the front desk. Yuanyuan, please introduce her to her." Du Ruo could naturally see some signs, but he just didn't understand why Xiang Yuanyuan seemed a little strange. You know, when Du Ruo and Li Qiyao first came into contact, Xiang Yuanyuan was also like this. Du Ruo had some guesses in his mind, but he didn't think too much about it. He picked up the things and walked towards the front desk with Maomao, asking Xiang Yuanyuan to introduce them to the other party. In the middle, the bucket was placed next to the stairs of the tavern. …… A small accident seemed to have happened here in Du Ruo, but people on the other side of the earth were also talking about him. "Yo~ You're pretty badly injured. Looks like you've suffered a loss." In the car, a burly man with a beard was driving. He looked through the rearview mirror at Inoue Sanzo, who was sitting in the back seat with bandages wrapped around his body, and couldn't help but make a teasing remark. "Well, I didn't expect that Boss Du is not only good at boxing, but also good at using weapons." The blond man sitting in the passenger seat couldn't help but sigh. After they finished the competition with Du Ruo yesterday, they just went to the hospital to confirm that there were no bone injuries and no need for hospitalization. They simply bandaged Inoue Sanjiro and then bought the nearest flight back to the United States. Now they just came out of the airport. The bearded driver who was driving the car was the blond man's friend. He is also the owner of the karate gym where the blond man and Inoue Sanzo are. "Mysterious oriental power." The bearded owner chuckled and muttered something, then looked at the blond man and Inoue Sanzo who seemed to be a little depressed, and couldn't help but comfort them: "You don't have to be too depressed. Times have changed. We have guns and technology these days. There's no need to worry about temporary gains and losses."
"Well, it's just a little hard to accept. My physique is definitely far superior to that of Boss Du. Moreover, I am so much taller than him and have practiced karate for so many years. How could I be defeated so easily?" As the blond man spoke, he couldn't help but look through the rearview mirror at the listless Inoue Sanzo in the back seat. His eyes seemed to be saying, "Is this a karate problem?" "Karate is definitely fine. It was inherited from the Tang Dynasty and has been studied and improved for so many generations. It's not like you haven't used karate to fight martial arts masters before. There's nothing wrong with karate, but that Boss Du is a little weird." Inoue Sanjiro touched the bandage on his chest and grimaced in pain. Du Ruo's blow had left his skin and flesh torn apart. Even after taking a lot of painkillers, he couldn't completely stop the pain. "Karate is fine, and there's nothing wrong with what you guys are doing. So why are you so worried? If you can't beat them, then you can't beat them. It's no big deal." The bearded gym owner curled his lips. He actually didn't run a martial arts gym but a fitness gym. He invited Inoue Sanzo just to enrich the subjects in the gym and meet the needs of some people. So in his opinion, winning or losing is not that important. However, the blond man and Inoue Sanzoshiro did not think that way at all. The karate they practiced was traditional karate, which included meditation, breathing, and basic exercises. Otherwise, the two of them would not have been able to practice to their current level, so they still attached great importance to fighting skills. "Tsk, how about you try technology?" The bearded owner saw the two men looking dejected and suddenly spoke. To be honest, he used to think it was stupid for the two of them to train so hard. What was the point of training so hard? He opened a gym, and the main purpose was to sell various medicines, which he called technology. What's the point of training so hard? In the end, it's no better than his various injections, such as growth hormone injections, testosterone injections, insulin injections, and cortisol injections. Just a little exercise will make your muscles stronger. If that's not enough, veterinary drugs used for animals, such as steroids and clenbuterol, are actually not prohibited for humans. He had actually wanted to persuade the blond man and Inoue Sanjiro a long time ago. Most importantly, he wanted to experiment what would happen if a martial artist was injected with technology? Could he take his technology to the next level? Although he had never seen the competition between the two and Du Ruo, he thought that the reason for their failure was that they lacked strength and speed. They only needed a shot of technology and some adrenaline, and then they would definitely be supermen. Thinking of this, he suddenly became excited. If there were two people who had practiced martial arts for 10 to 20 years, plus his technological needles, and if there was a chemical reaction, he could develop a superhuman potion and then sell it to the military or big capitalists? "Let's not talk about this for now. When we get back, I'll find you some more girls so you can relax." He couldn't calm down at all just thinking about it, so without waiting for the two to object, he began to comfort them. At the same time, he was already planning how to make them obediently serve as his experimental subjects. As for the side effects, what does it matter? Isn't it just that it is easy to die suddenly, shorten life, impaired reproductive function, and face turns purple? These have nothing to do with him. He just needs to make money. I believe that those who come to buy medicine will not care about these side effects. As he thought about it, the bearded owner couldn't help but smile, and his eyes towards the blond man and Inoue Sanzo softened. In the past, he had never persuaded the two to use technology because he knew they were unwilling to do so. But now it was different. He had discovered a business opportunity, and these two people had just suffered a blow. This was a great opportunity that must not be missed. (End of this chapter)
