15 Chapter 15: Visiting the Xingwu Gym
Translator: 549690339
Not far from the gym, there was an underground parking lot.
Chen Sheng followed Li Chenghu, preparing to go to Xingwu Gym to meet the latter’s father.
The Grand Master of Xingwu Gym, Li Xingwu.
Only with his consent could Chen Sheng officially join Xingwu Gym and become Li Chenghu’s disciple.
*Ding ding*
Arriving at a part of the parking lot, Li Chenghu pressed the remote control.
*Plop*
Seeing Li Chenghu’s car, Chen Sheng, who was drinking water, turned into a fountain.
Li Chenghu’s car turned out to be a police car.
“What are you staring at? Get in.”
Seeing Chen Sheng standing there dumbfounded, Li Chenghu opened the car door and called out to him.
“Tiger Bro… should I sit in the front or the back?”
Chen Sheng usually preferred to sit in the right rear seat when riding in a car.
But looking at the metal bars in the police car…
He felt that sitting there would be somewhat strange.
“If you want to experience what it’s like to be a criminal suspect, I don’t mind.”
Li Chenghu smiled ambiguously while taking out a limited edition silver bracelet from the car.
“I can also provide you with the gear.”
Upon hearing this,
Chen Sheng awkwardly smiled and obediently sat in the passenger seat.
“I’ll have the chance to experience it some other time.”
As soon as he finished speaking,
Chen Sheng suddenly felt that there was something odd about his words.
Before he could think too much about it,
Li Chenghu started the car and drove towards the exit of the parking lot.
“Tiger Bro, I thought your family runs a martial arts hall, so why do you have a police car?”
On the road,
Chen Sheng casually chatted with Li Chenghu.
“My family is my family, and I am me.”
“This disciple of mine is actually just a namesake; my talent in martial arts isn’t much.”
“Although you will officially be my disciple in name later on,”
“The ones who will really teach you are the people in the martial arts hall.”
So, that’s how it is…
Chen Sheng nodded in realization.
Immediately after, he raised another question.
“So, Tiger Bro, your actual job is…?”
“That’s right.”
Li Chenghu nodded.
“I am the captain of a team under the Quanjiang City Martial Security Bureau.”
“The Martial Security Bureau?”
Chen Sheng inquired in confusion.
He had heard of the police and the Cultural Bureau,
But this so-called Martial Security Bureau was new to him.
“Its full name is the Martial Arts Safety Management Bureau, which mainly targets martial artists, Qi-sensors, and Heavenly People who commit crimes using martial arts. It has the authority to supervise all humans with extraordinary individual strength. The bureau was established just a year ago.”
“Because it was recently established, and due to the high mortality rate, we have always been short-staffed.”
Hearing this,
Chen Sheng immediately understood what Li Chenghu meant by asking for his help earlier.
He suddenly fell silent.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help,
but rather whether he could be of any assistance with his current strength.
Li Chenghu seemed to see what was on his mind and explained with a smile.
“Don’t worry, we won’t ask for your help right now.”
“Facing those wanted criminals, the weak ones can be dealt with by ourselves, and if you were to face the strong ones, you’d just be courting death.”
“Just honestly practice martial arts, and you’ll have opportunities in the future.”
Hearing this,
Chen Sheng nodded understandingly, looking firmly at Li Chenghu.
“Don’t worry, Tiger Bro. I’ll be ready to help whenever you need me.”
“Just… can I run if I encounter danger?”
As soon as these words were spoken,
Li Chenghu burst into laughter.
“You’d better be able to run.”
“I’ve seen too many reckless people die at the hands of those criminals.”
“Only by surviving can you protect more people.”
“Many of my colleagues failed to understand this, and as a result, they lost their lives.”
As he spoke, Li Chenghu seemed to recall something, and his expression turned somewhat melancholic.
Chen Sheng, with his keen senses, noticed this and didn’t say anything further.
The police car continued towards its destination.
Half an hour later.
The Port District, Xingwu Gym.
The location was about twenty kilometers from Chen Sheng’s home.
Chen Sheng looked out of the window.
Gazing at the surroundings, he felt a strange sense of familiarity.
After thinking for a long time,
he finally remembered.
Wasn’t the previous location of Xingwu Gym, the Youth Palace?!
As a child, Chen Sheng had even learned Taekwondo here.
After being beaten up by his parents for secretly kissing a little girl from the neighboring art class, he refused to come back, sulking.
After so many years,
little did he expect it to have become a martial arts hall.
“Let’s go.”
