Chapter 99 Boundary

Chapter 99 Boundary
Cheng Zitong took Chen Chuan and walked behind the man and said, "Lao He, I brought my student here."

He Xiaoxing turned his head to the side, and the hair on his shoulders fluttered in the wind, revealing his strong and resolute facial features. Then he turned around and his penetrating eyes fell on Chen Chuan.

Chen Chuan also looked at him at this time.

The strong body of the man opposite gave him a strong sense of oppression, especially after he turned around to face him. He could feel a power from this man that could erupt at any time, as if it was a volcano that had been silent for years, waiting to erupt, or like a deep vortex brewing under the sea, calm but unpredictable.

Cheng Zitong said, "Xiaochuan, this is Lao He, He Xiaoxing. You can call him Teacher He. The school wanted him to be your teacher, but he didn't seem to be interested at the time. It wasn't until he heard that you chose Zhou Yuanjin that he seemed to change his attitude."

He Xiaoxing spoke at this time, his voice was very broad and powerful, as if every word was hammered out, "Martial arts is a very personal thing. If a fighter is only influenced by the outside world, instead of being firm in his own choices, he won't go far."

Cheng Zitong agreed, but he also said with emotion: "Old He, you are right. You can say that, but how many people can clearly know what they need? How can we know that we are right? After all, the experience of our predecessors cannot be completely discarded. Even if I consider myself a person of individual enlightenment, I am no exception."

He Xiaoxing raised his head at this time and looked at Wen Guotang not far away. His eyes were deep, but it seemed that his aura just suppressed all the storms.

“Three years ago, I accepted Shen Zheng as my student here. He chose Xuan Xiang Jin at that time, but he made this choice because it was the school’s expectation, and I, his teacher, also practiced this Jin method.

But I know this is not the best choice for him.

He actually knew it, but his burden was too heavy, and he never wanted to disappoint others, so he made this choice. At that time, I knew that his road was destined to be full of ups and downs. If he wanted to climb to the upper level of power, he would either crush others or be crushed by others. "

Cheng Zitong said: "He is very talented. As I recall... you only taught him for half a semester, right?"

"To be exact, it was three months. Afterwards, I went to the wilderness to practice, leaving him only a guide notebook. It was up to him to learn everything."

He Xiaoxing said in a deep voice: "Later, I heard the news that he had an accident. I was surprised, but not surprised at the same time."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment and asked, "Teacher, Teacher He, I heard many senior students in the school mentioned this senior, but none of them wanted to talk about it in detail. I wonder what happened at that time?"

He Xiaoxing didn't say anything, he just stood there in silence.

Cheng Zitong said, "Well, it's time to talk to you about this, especially since you've passed the weapons license exam, so you're eligible to take the next one. This matter is also related to this license. I originally wanted to let Lao He talk to you when he was guiding you, but now that Lao He can't stay, I'll explain it to you here."

He paused and said, “Usually if you follow the routine assessment instead of taking the selection test, it will take about two or three years to get a weapons license, which makes it difficult to take other certificates.

But if you pass the selection test, like you did, then you have plenty of time to take other exams, and one of them is called the 'Unlimited Defense Certificate'."

At this point, he emphasized, "You should be able to understand the meaning from the name. With this certificate, as long as you find that someone is persecuting you, or you feel that your life is in danger, you will automatically have the right to unlimited defense.

And after being granted this certificate, in times of national emergency, one can automatically obtain the power to participate in limited law enforcement, so it is also called a 'law enforcement certificate' by some people."

In the past few decades, this "Unlimited Defense Certificate" has been monopolized by recommended students, because with this certificate in hand, they can better obtain the "right to legitimate defense". However, even without these certificates, the children of power have many ways to do this, but they still want to get it, do you understand?"

Chen Chuan thought about it and nodded to show his understanding. Defense has always been passive, but with power, the boundaries here can be blurred.

In fact, after having power, getting this certificate is just icing on the cake. It is not so important whether you have it or not. What is important is that once the certificate is monopolized by the recommended students, other A-grade students will certainly not be able to get it.

So if we look deeper, this is a kind of precaution to prevent people from other classes from breaking the rules and restrictions, and the original intention of granting this certificate is probably to give people from certain classes the weapons to break the rules.

Cheng Zitong sighed and said, "Back then, Shen Zheng was just like you. He passed the weapon certificate very early. In fact, before him, due to some reasons, the atmosphere in the academy was very bad. Many A-grade students ordered B-grade students around like servants. The mutual aid society constantly absorbed outstanding students as its own people, and used agreements to restrain them after graduation. The management was also restrained by the entrusted club. The situation was very bad.

If they wanted to change the situation at this time, they had to break it within the student group first. He saw this and led the students to form the "Fenxin Society".

He did not confront the mutual aid society head-on, but led a group of like-minded students to try to correct the trend of Grade A students oppressing Grade B students, provide guidance and help to lower-level students, and train young people outside the school who wanted to apply for Wuyi.

Although the Fenxin Society also charges fees, it allows repayment after graduation without any interest, and does not have the harsh conditions of the Mutual Aid Society. Even if you fail to successfully enroll, the repayment period can be extended to more than ten years, and you can also recommend talented relatives and friends to study together. "

Chen Chuan thought about it and realized that if it was just about reversing the unhealthy atmosphere, then that had nothing to do with the Mutual Aid Association. However, providing guidance to lower grades and helping applicants with training without any special conditions was almost like digging up the roots of the Mutual Aid Association.

He said with certainty: "If he does this, he will definitely come into conflict with the Mutual Aid Association." Cheng Zitong said: "You are right. The Mutual Aid Association has had several conflicts with him because of this incident, and even had several fights on campus."

Chen Chuan roughly guessed that things would develop in this way, because this was the simplest and easiest way. Everything Shen Zheng did was undoubtedly based on his own prestige and military force.

But this is also very fragile. All you need to do is find someone to defeat him and undermine his prestige. You know, except for a few students with firm beliefs, most of the rest are wavering and are just being swept forward by the torrent.

Cheng Zitong sighed and said, "It's just that the mutual aid association failed because even the senior recommended students who were eligible to go to the central city at that time could not beat him in a duel."

Chen Chuan thought that this senior Shen must have something to rely on to do such a thing, but he didn't feel very optimistic, because it is easy to dodge an open attack but difficult to guard against a hidden sword. He may not be able to defeat you openly, but he has plenty of other means to deal with you secretly.

Cheng Zitong lowered his voice again and said, "Now we are going to get to the point. The event that happened two years ago was probably caused by him applying for the Unlimited Defense Certificate and successfully obtaining it."

He paused, looked at He Xiaoxing who had been standing silently, thought for a moment and said, "I have only heard about the investigation results regarding the following events, but I am not sure if it is true or not.

Shen was found in an abandoned factory. He was already dead when he was found. The report said that all the injuries on his body were inflicted by himself and no one had abused him. But we still don't know why he did it.

What is certain is that he was not the only one present at the time, but there were many people, and even the school was able to frame it as a certain group of students, but they could not convict them because they did not take any action in the process and were only released after being questioned for a day.

The investigation report explained that Shen Zheng was eager to achieve success and practiced the Jin method to drive himself crazy, so he died of self-mutilation. Of course, this pale and weak explanation is just to cover up the case file. Everyone knows that it is not the case. "

At this point, he said to He Xiaoxing: "Afterwards, a group of people were still on guard against you, the instructor, returning to take revenge. Some people in the school were also nervous for a while."

He Xiaoxing said in a deep voice: "That was the path he chose, and he should be responsible for it to the end. He took on responsibilities that he shouldn't have taken on. Some of the burdens were beyond his ability, and I'm not surprised that he was crushed.

Since those people have chosen to take action, it means that they have already prepared everything. My coming forward is just jumping into the trap prepared by those people. There is no meaning except that I am one more person. But as long as I am still here, I am like a knife hanging over their heads at any time. The more powerful I am, the more uneasy they will be. "

Chen Chuan nodded. Mr. He’s choice was right. The outburst at that time might have played into the hands of some people, but he could have chosen to take a step back temporarily. That would give him room to maneuver. Moreover, everyone knew that this matter was not over yet. As the person in front of them continued to grow stronger, it would undoubtedly be a long-lasting torment for those people.

Just like after today, when the news of Tan Wang being expelled comes out, some people may lose sleep again.

Cheng Zitong sighed and said with regret: "This student Shen Zheng really did a lot of things, but his sense of justice was too strong and he had too many things to bear, so he almost shouldered everything by himself.

After him, there was no one to take up the responsibility in the Fenxin Society, and many people left the society because of this. The remaining members have been hoping that someone like this could come forward and lead them back to the way they were before. "

As he spoke, he looked at Chen Chuan with a serious expression, "Xiao Chuan, now that you have obtained your weapon license, it should not be difficult for you to obtain your armor license in the future. If you just stop here, then there is no problem.

But if you decide to take the unlimited defense certificate exam, then those recommenders and the forces behind them will be alert. Especially with Shen Zheng's example, their reaction may be even greater, because this is not only competing with them for immediate interests, but it is also likely to really harm them in the future. The higher your ability, the greater the threat, do you understand?"

Chen Chuan nodded, "Teacher, I think I understand."

Cheng Zitong looked at him and said, "So, what is your decision?"

He Xiaoxing, who was standing there, also looked at him at this time.

The night wind blew, and the clothes and hair of the three people were fluttering.

Chen Chuan looked at the lights at the foot of the mountain, then at the vaguely discernible starry sky, and slowly said, "Students will break free of those things that bind them one by one. If they can't even overcome the difficulties in front of them, then how can they talk about the future? If we look to the future, I think what we are facing now should be the easiest to face, right?"

Cheng Zitong couldn't help but laugh, "Well, Lao He, what did I say? This is my student! My student, Cheng Zitong's student!"
