Hu Die Lan
Chapter 371 Earnest Teachings
As the saying goes, the observer sees more than the player. While the brother who fell to the ground hadn't figured out what was happening, everyone watching, even the Oathless Sword crew, saw it clearly.
They thought Gu Fei had just kicked his opponent down quickly. But in the eyes of experts, Gu Fei's kick was perfectly timed. It seemed he had predicted where his opponent would step, and his foot was already there. It was as if his opponent had deliberately stepped into his kick.
"Your Jade Ring Step is too precise," Gu Fei said calmly to the fallen brother.
The brother on the ground immediately understood. He was using the Jade Ring Step to launch the Mandarin Duck Kick, but Gu Fei had deciphered his steps after only three steps. He stubbornly continued to follow the sequence and stepped on the fourth step. Since Gu Fei already knew where his foot would land, the more precise his step, the more unlucky he would be, as Gu Fei was waiting right there.
This fall didn't reduce his health much either. But their exchange was no longer a life-or-death struggle of an online game, but a competition of kung fu skills. Like the previous one, this person was thinking: If this were real life, and I was swept off my feet with my opponent standing right in front of me, with his skill, he could kick my head into pieces. I lost. I really lost.
The man stood up from the ground, stared blankly at Gu Fei, and retreated without a word.
If they still couldn't see that Gu Fei was very good and very strong at this point, then they wouldn't dare to call themselves experts. This person was undoubtedly a trained martial artist like them. Just listen to the professional terms he casually threw out. Look at the confused faces of the crowd around them, and you could tell they were no longer on the same level.
The remaining three who hadn't yet fought glanced at each other and then at the two who had already suffered. Like Oathless Sword, the five nodded slightly. The three of them walked out side by side. This time, they were extremely serious. They clasped their hands together and bowed to Gu Fei: "Please enlighten us."
"Please enlighten us," Gu Fei returned the salute. The three rushed forward immediately, forming a triangular formation. They circled Gu Fei slowly, looking for an opportunity to attack.
Surrounded by the three, Gu Fei remained calm and composed, with an air of a master. His appearance made the people from Cloud Piercer who intended to help him give up their plan. At this point, they could finally understand why Gu Fei was so strong.
He and the mercenaries from the Hundred Battles Guild were the same kind of people, but clearly at a higher level. If those people were petty thugs, then he was a big boss; if those people were from a martial arts gym, then he was at least the master of the gym; if those people were veterans, then Gu Fei was a super-excellent soldier who wanted to retire but wasn't allowed to.
As everyone was thinking wildly, the three opponents suddenly shouted and charged at Gu Fei, the one in the center swung his fist, the others kicked, and the warrior stabbed with his giant sword.
Gu Fei just smiled slightly, confident. He took two steps to the side, twisted his body, and the three suddenly found that their target was gone. The warrior had used the Charge skill with his stab, and was about to stab his own teammate. He quickly canceled the skill. Fearing it was too late, he frantically raised his sword over his head. The tip of the sword flashed past the eyes of his own brother, scaring the guy into a cold sweat.
Then they heard Gu Fei slowly say behind him, "The one with the sword, are you new to this?"
The warrior immediately opened his mouth wide, embarrassed and unsure what to say, like a child caught doing something wrong.
"The Three Roads Flying requires the cooperation of three people, which is already very complicated. How could a beginner like him coordinate with you?" Gu Fei turned back and lectured the other two, then turned back to the warrior and said, "Those two have too solid a foundation, so solid that they don't know how to adapt. You, on the other hand, are just a mess! Did you think using the Charge skill in the game would be powerful? Do you know that the flaws are all exposed by you? You stepped wrong in the Plum Blossom Step not long after you started circling, and you didn't even know it? Then you made a mistake after mistake, seventeen mistakes in a row, and then you use Charge, and you still want to hit someone?"
The warrior was stunned by Gu Fei's words, his head drooping lower and lower, almost buried in his crotch. Seeing that he seemed to know he was wrong, Gu Fei turned to the other two and said, "His level is completely different from yours, how could you cooperate on the Three Roads Flying? Why don't you two try the Two Roads Walking?"
"Two Roads Walking...we haven't practiced that!" the two said embarrassedly.
"You haven't practiced Two Roads Walking, yet you started practicing Three Roads Flying?" Gu Fei widened his eyes.
The two blushed and said, "Actually, we haven't really practiced. We just read the boxing manual, found it interesting, and then practiced it privately. Then we occasionally tried it in the game."
"Oh, it's not easy to get to this level. But you still need to go back and practice the Two Roads Walking first, otherwise your Three Roads Flying won't improve," Gu Fei earnestly taught. "Some things must be done step by step. If you force yourself to skip this step, the result will be like the brother just now, stepping wrong in the Plum Blossom Step once, and then making eighteen mistakes."
The warrior raised his head after seeing that Gu Fei was no longer talking about him, but he didn't expect that he would be mentioned again in the blink of an eye, so he quickly lowered his head again, muttering to himself, "Didn't you just say seventeen steps?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Fei had sharp ears and heard it immediately. He was very annoyed and said, "Isn't it exactly eighteen steps if you count the first wrong step? You're still talking back after doing something wrong! If I didn't see that you were a beginner, I would have PKed you long ago! Go back and practice the basics before coming out to show off!"
The warrior was submissive, not daring to breathe loudly.
Gu Fei glanced at them one by one. None of the five spoke to him, so Gu Fei had to encompass all five of them with his gaze and asked, "What other advice do you have?"
The five seemed to wake up from a dream when they heard this, and finally realized what they had come to do. Unexpectedly, they had been stunned by Gu Fei in just a few moves. They dared not question Gu Fei at all. This person was not only extraordinary in skill but also far surpassed them in knowledge. He was a man of great importance!
The five thought to themselves and quickly replied, "None for now. We'll come again later, we'll come again later."
Saying that, the five had already turned around and fled, no different from players who had been miserably PKed. But in fact, the five's health was unusually full at this time. What damage could Gu Fei's unarmed attacks do? Moreover, Gu Fei didn't even lift a finger against the last three. He just flashed out of their circle and then defeated them with a verbal lecture. This kind of defeat was truly convincing.
"Hey! Where are you going? When are you coming back? Bring more experts with you!!" Gu Fei was still shouting at the five, straining his voice! It was unclear whether the five heard him, but they fled quickly anyway.
When Gu Fei turned back around, the players of Cloud Piercer were all staring at him.
"They all ran away...sigh!" Gu Fei explained to everyone embarrassedly.
"You all were using...kung fu?..." Obviously, what everyone cared about was not whether they ran away. Everyone had just suddenly discovered that if you want to become stronger in the game, besides getting equipment, leveling up, and grinding skills, there seemed to be another way. Moreover, this method was very powerful. It could create a superman like Gu Fei.
"Does this guy really know some kind of bullshit kung fu?" Han Jia公子 muttered. In fact, this group of people who were most familiar with Gu Fei had long known that he was different from others, and Gu Fei had also told them directly that he was a kung fu expert. It's just that in this era, kung fu has become so insignificant that it can be ignored. In reality, no one has the opportunity to experience what kung fu is like. Most people's understanding only comes from fancy literary and film works, as well as equally fancy martial arts performances. Everyone knows that those novels and films are fake, and those performances are not much different from gymnastics. It is difficult for ordinary people to see this kind of truly practical and offensive kung fu.
Now that they had personally experienced such a miracle, who would want to miss it? After a moment of surprise, the crowd suddenly surged towards Gu Fei, waving their hands and shouting, "Thousand Miles bro, teach me, teach me!!!"
This was a scene that Gu Fei was very happy to see. But he knew even more clearly why these guys suddenly had so much enthusiasm. If they thought that martial artists would only care about the inheritance of kung fu without asking for a reason, then they were wrong.
Don't forget that this is essentially a technique that teaches people how to hurt or even kill. Saying that it's for self-defense and health is just self-comfort. Self-defense is also based on the means to attack the other party. Kung fu is full of offensiveness from beginning to end.
So don't think that Gu Fei usually seems to be eager for everyone to practice kung fu. But in fact, when someone wants to ask him to teach them, he must first examine the other party's intentions and see the other party's character.
Take Coward Savior for example. Although he initially hung around with a gang in Moon Night City, Gu Fei could easily see that this person had a simple personality and was definitely not a bad person. He could teach kung fu to such a person with complete confidence. That's why he carefully guided him in the Seven Star Mantis Fist. Facts proved that Gu Fei was not wrong. Coward Savior was already a bit grounded, and with Gu Fei's guidance, his strength was not something that ordinary people could deal with. But this guy was still simple and happy, and he never thought of bullying others with his skills. He didn't even have the desire to deliberately encounter injustice to test his skills. Even Gu Fei was ashamed of this. If he had this state of mind, he wouldn't have appeared in the parallel world.
This large group of people in front of him had all discovered the secret of Gu Fei's strength, and they were all sincerely asking Gu Fei to teach them. But who knows what they would do if they learned this skill? Gu Fei would not teach them randomly until he understood these things.
It's just that everyone's enthusiasm was really high at this time. Seeing that he might not even have a chance to explain, Gu Fei could only avoid the brunt of it for now. After instantly moving to distance himself from the crowd, he turned around and ran.
