Chapter 504 Two Talents
Even a powerful person like Rong Shi praised that man highly, saying that his speed was like the wind. This shows that he was definitely an extremely difficult opponent who should not be underestimated.
Not long after they walked, they ran into Uncle Yun. When Uncle Yun saw Kong, he immediately smiled. His originally kind face was now filled with a warm smile, and he greeted him enthusiastically: "It's you, hahaha, I watched your game, it was so wonderful!" As Uncle Yun spoke, he raised his thumb, his eyes full of undisguised admiration, and he sincerely admired Kong's outstanding performance in the game.
"I was eliminated in the third round. What a pity! If only I could have lasted one more round..." Uncle Yun's tone was full of regret. There seemed to be a faint sigh in his voice, like a wisp of smoke floating in the air. He had originally had high expectations for his performance in the competition and had carefully prepared for a long time, but he didn't expect to be eliminated so early, which inevitably made him feel a little disappointed.
Paimeng's eyes widened, looking at Uncle Yun expectantly, her curiosity surging like the waves, hitting her heart one after another. "Who made it to the finals in the end?" Thinking of the previous conversation with Uncle Yun, Paimeng thought that this man was knowledgeable, had lived in this land for many years, and had a wide network of contacts. Maybe he could provide some useful information about the final opponent and help Kong in the next game.
After hearing Paimeng's question, Uncle Yun smiled helplessly. It was as if he was bent by the burden of life, and it was filled with deep loneliness. He lowered his head slightly, and said slowly with a frustrated tone: "He was the one who eliminated me. He was really amazing." Uncle Yun recalled the scene during the competition, and a trace of unwillingness appeared in his eyes. "He was agile and moved freely on the field. It was hard to predict. And he could always find the opponent's weaknesses accurately, like a hound with a keen sense of smell. Once he found an opportunity, he would attack without hesitation."
Uncle Yun sighed softly, as if he wanted to spit out all the depression in his heart with this breath, "I just didn't pay attention for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, I was knocked to the ground by him. Although I have a strong physique and am usually proud of my strength and not afraid to compete with others, I am really far behind him in terms of flexibility." At this point, Uncle Yun smiled self-deprecatingly, trying to use this laugh to cover up the loss in his heart, but that trace of loneliness still followed him like a shadow, and was clearly revealed in his words.
"But I think he is still far inferior to you. Haha!" Uncle Yun raised his head and tried to force a smile, trying to give Kong some encouragement. However, there was a hint of reluctance in that smile, like a hint of warmth forced on in the cold winter, which seemed a little thin.
After hearing Uncle Yun's words, everyone couldn't help laughing. This laughter was like a brisk breeze, temporarily blowing away the dullness in the air. Everyone said goodbye to Uncle Yun and thanked him for the information he provided. Uncle Yun waved his hand and looked at their departing backs with a little blessing in his eyes, hoping that Kong would achieve good results in the next competition.
After saying goodbye to Uncle Yun, the group continued to ask around the lively arena about other players' situations, not missing any opportunity to obtain useful information. The crowd was bustling, and everyone was talking about this highly anticipated game, but the news about the final opponent was still vague, as if shrouded in fog.
Not long after walking, a familiar figure came into view. It was one of the brothers from before. He was alone and looked a little lonely, while the other one was nowhere to be seen. Paimon had sharp eyes and flew forward quickly like an agile bird. He looked at the man with a puzzled look on his face, and his big eyes sparkled with curiosity. He asked, "Hey, where is your brother?"
After hearing what Paimeng said, the man shook his head helplessly, his face full of regret and worry. He frowned slightly, his tone full of helplessness and regret, and slowly said: "He tried to use his energy to block the opponent's fist, but was hit in the nose, and blood gushed out on the spot." Recalling the thrilling scene at that time, there was a trace of fear in his eyes, "The opponent was also frightened and panicked, and kept asking him why he didn't dodge, but he was already staggering and couldn't even speak. Why didn't he dodge... This is the kung fu of the "Lingshan School", but it has not been practiced yet. "There was a trace of self-blame in his voice, as if he also had an unshirkable responsibility for his brother's injury.
Seeing this, Kong's curiosity burned like a raging fire, and he couldn't wait to ask, "So how was your competition?" From his appearance, there was no sign of injury. Did he win the competition? Kong's eyes were full of expectation, hoping to get more information about the competition from him, especially the details of the final opponent.
After hearing what Kong said, the man became even more speechless, as if all the strength in his body was drained away in an instant, and he shrank like an eggplant hit by frost. He said weakly, "Don't say anymore, don't say anymore. After my brother was injured, I took great pains to get him on the boat back to the port. The journey was long, and there were many problems along the way. I was exhausted." He sighed deeply, and his fatigue was evident in his words. "But when I came back, I had already missed my turn... I didn't dare to tell Master about this, otherwise he would definitely scold me. I'm really sorry, I shouldn't have complained in front of you. It's just that I was so busy that I was dizzy. If you have any questions, I'm afraid I can't help you." He spread his hands helplessly, his eyes full of apology.
Hearing his words, Paimeng was embarrassed for a moment, like a stone statue fixed in place, not knowing what to do. After a while, she slowly spoke, and said softly: "Well, okay... I hope your senior brother is safe and sound, and you should cheer up too!" Paimeng's eyes were full of concern, hoping to give him some comfort.
After hearing that, the man replied, "Well, thank you..." Then the three of them turned and left. Looking at their backs as they left, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, these two are really a pair of funny people. The reaction of the man just now and Paimeng's answer made Lin Feng almost laugh to death. If he hadn't forced himself to hold back, he would probably still be talking to that person at this moment. There's no way these brothers are really a pair of funny people.
