Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1677 - 1674: Training
But before leaving home, Lin Tian left behind the Heavenly Tribulation Sword. Although Secret Master Yasuo had already been seriously injured and taken away by Xu Feibai, he couldn’t guarantee that something unexpected wouldn’t happen.
Lin Tian arranged to meet Qiao Xiaoyi at the small grove by the lake, located in the center of campus. It is said that the lake was not originally this large and was expanded several times to have the current vast water surface.
By the lake, there are willows, pavilions, grasslands, stone paths, and small groves, making it a great place for students to enjoy romantic evenings. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
Walking on the stone path by the lake, Lin Tian encountered several couples, who looked at him strangely as if saying, "What are you doing here, single dog?"
Entering the small grove, there were no couples anymore, probably because it’s late at night, and they were afraid of snakes appearing. Imagine, the scene of two people touching each other and then finding a snake; it would probably become a lifetime shadow.
The small grove was somewhat dark, as the streetlights outside were blocked by the trees, only vaguely letting in some light. But it made no difference to Lin Tian.
Almost reaching the center of the grove, subtle sounds came from behind a large rock. Lin Tian listened carefully, almost bursting into laughter.
"Zhiyong, let’s leave. It’s so dark here. I heard from my sisters that this grove is haunted." A girl’s voice vaguely emitted, very small with a frightened tremor.
Zhiyong is likely the boy’s name, and then a boy said, "Xiao Yue, don’t be afraid. With me here, even if there is a ghost, I’ll protect you. Come, give me a kiss."
This is probably the boy’s trick, taking the girl to watch horror movies or go into dark places. When the girl gets scared, he can take the chance to hug her.
"No, I’m really scared. Let’s leave. It really feels haunted." The boy’s comforting failed, and the girl was still scared.
"What are you afraid of? If people block me, I block people; if ghosts block me, I block ghosts. I’ll slay one if one shows up, and I’ll slay both if two show up. With me here, ghosts have to hide..." The boy said confidently, then realized a shadow had appeared before him, stopping his words abruptly.
"Who... who’s there?" The boy stuttered, even more trembling than the girl just now.
"Didn’t you say you’d slay one if one showed up, slay both if two showed up? I’m here..." The shadow’s voice stretched long, seemingly with a peculiar tone.
"Ghost..." The boy shouted, ran away without a trace, abandoning his girlfriend despite showing bravado earlier.
The girl seemed to be stunned with fear, standing still without shouting or running. This shadow was, of course, Lin Tian; he just wanted to scare them away to free up the site for training, unexpectedly turning the tough guy into a softie.
Did I do a good deed or a bad one? Lin Tian was very speechless. At the critical moment, the girl saw her boyfriend’s true colors. But on the flip side, this might tear a couple apart.
Lin Tian walked up, just about to explain something when the girl suddenly said, "Are you... Lin Tian?"
"Damn, you recognize me even like this." Lin Tian muttered, thinking his reputation was this well-known?
"It really is Lin Tian. You’re a famous figure at school. How would I not recognize you? It’s not completely invisible here." The girl said very calmly.
"Then I scared away your boyfriend..." Lin Tian pointed in the direction the boy ran away, feeling somewhat guilty.
"Forget him; he runs faster than I do. I’ll break up with him when we get back." The girl said decisively, showing none of the fear from before.
Lin Tian thought carefully; the girl was probably pretending to be scared to test her boyfriend’s courage, unexpectedly finding Lin Tian the "ghost."
Life indeed has tricks everywhere; the boy thought that when the girl got scared, he could take advantage, but unexpectedly, he was tested for his sincerity by the girl.
"Lin Tian junior, you came to the grove by yourself at night. Are you here for a date too?" Xiao Yue senior curiously looked at Lin Tian.
Lin Tian pretended to cough twice, vaguely saying: "Cough cough, sort of..."
As soon as the words fell, Qiao Xiaoyi walked in. Seeing Lin Tian, he jogged to his side, a bit embarrassed, saying: "Brother Lin Tian, sorry to keep you waiting..."
Xiao Yue senior widened her eyes, staring dumbfoundedly at Lin Tian and Qiao Xiaoyi standing "intimately" together, her expression full of excitement: "You two..."
"Xiao Yue senior, let me explain..." Lin Tian immediately understood what Xiao Yue senior meant; she actually misunderstood the two men having a date! This misunderstanding was huge.
Xiao Yue senior quickly waved her hand: "Junior, no need to explain, I get it, I get it, you guys date, I’ll leave first."
Saying so, Xiao Yue senior walked out, taking two steps and then turning back: "Oh, I forgot to say, I’m not called Xiao Yue, I’m called Mi Yue, Mi like Mi Yue, Yue as in pleasure, paleontology major, I’m your academy’s senior, bye-bye."
Paleontology major? Lin Tian was surprised, then suddenly remembered the legend of the Academy of Life Sciences, with only one descendant in every generation studying paleontology, which was a legendary major, even making the news. Unexpectedly, he encountered it here.
"Brother Lin Tian, do you know that girl?" Qiao Xiaoyi asked strangely.
Lin Tian then turned to look at him, very helplessly saying: "That Xiao Yue senior suspected the two of us were dating."
"Ah, no way..." Qiao Xiaoyi was also dumbfounded.
"Forget her, let’s start training." Lin Tian didn’t waste any more time, decisively said.
"What are we training?" Qiao Xiaoyi asked puzzledly.
Lin Tian walked around him twice, thought for a moment, and said: "I want to first check your reaction ability and then formulate a one-shot combat technique for you."
"One-shot combat? That’s unlikely, right?" Qiao Xiaoyi looked shocked and didn’t quite believe it. He would believe a master could achieve it, but with his own level, it seemed impossible.
"Hum..." Lin Tian hummed a laugh arrogantly: "Huaxia martial arts are broad and profound, with many techniques to defeat the stronger with the weaker. Acupoint Kung Fu, have you heard of it?"
Qiao Xiaoyi scratched his head, embarrassed, saying: "I’ve only seen it on TV and novels."
"The human body has three hundred and sixty-five acupoints, many of which, when struck, can cause dizziness, disability, or even death, such as the fontanel on the forehead, which when hit can make one faint, like the temple, when hit lightly can cause fainting, heavily can cause death..." Lin Tian briefly introduced some key acupoints to Qiao Xiaoyi.
However, Qiao Xiaoyi’s face kept changing color as he listened, for his kind heart never intended to do such dangerous things to people.
"Brother Lin Tian, I... I’d rather not learn this. It’s bad if anyone gets hurt." Qiao Xiaoyi hesitated to say.
"Hurt someone?" Lin Tian chuckled lightly, shaking his head: "It’s not that easy to hurt someone. If it’s this easy, people would be in danger all the time. Those dangerous acupoints need a certain skill level to exert force before having an effect. You can’t achieve it, nor do we need it. Today, I’ll teach you just one non-lethal acupoint."
