Chapter 2: The Initial Trial of the Gun

With a sweep of the red tassel spear, the only thing that traversed through time was clearly stepping inside

Seeing Mingxi unexpectedly abandon his weapon and use his fists, the burly man laughed heartily and loosened his grip on the great sword, saying: "Little girl, don't say I took advantage of you later!"

I will tell you later, now hurry up!

Please go in and find me a clean spot to book a room

How does it work? How should one respond? After some thought, I would say: "In general, it combines the functions of a stick, a sword, and a knife; it can sweep, stab, and also chop"

One can sense that the Han individual harbors no ill intentions, and she feels quite at ease trying out the techniques.

The tavern is filled with a variety of people, mostly rugged mercenaries, swordsmen wielding greatswords, knights clad in full armor, agile archers and thieves, as well as the profession that is both revered and scorned, the magician

After such a long period of emotional buffering, she no longer felt like crying

Oh!

Everyone was taken aback; clearly, she had the upper hand, so why did she stop fighting instead?

This question provoked a burst of laughter from those around.

"Rely on you!" Channing suddenly lowered his voice, "You are my magical pet! My contracted servant! Oh my, this is truly tragic"

Two men faced each other on the street, and the burly man let out a loud roar as he raised his sword and charged forward, striking down directly without any embellishment

On what basis?

Mingxi truly did not find this amusing. She had known for a long time that no one here used guns and that no one was familiar with this weapon, yet she did not expect it to attract others' attention. However, it was normal for others to be curious, so she smiled gently and said, "This is my weapon, called a gun"

You consume my resources and expect my protection, what a waste of space, where does all this temper come from! Channing was furious

She waved her hand and threw the gun to Channing beside her. Channing, in a fluster, caught it while nervously pulling down his hood, clearly trying to hide from someone.

A clear smile appeared, accompanied by a hand gesture forming a semicircle, with eyes sparkling brightly

May I ask if there are any rooms available

With a clear sense of trepidation, I gazed at the bulging muscles on the arms of this giant, feeling that even without a gun, he could knock me out with a single punch. I repeatedly shook my hands and shook my head, saying, "No, no, no, I am too weak; I can only put on a show."

What the heck! With a clear and unwilling shout, Cha Ning's tone became heavy, and her body automatically complied. Although there was still a slight resistance, it was no longer sufficient to contend with Cha Ning.

Mingxi was puzzled about how he ended up in such a strange place, where not only could he speak the local language, but he also comprehended the written characters. Upon hearing this, he had not yet reacted, "What?"

This attack move is rather too rudimentary!

A clear bitter smile, where did my fighting spirit come from? Just a few days ago, I thought this kind of thing only existed in fantasy books

As the halo converged, she clearly realized that she was unable to push the stick forward even a fraction. She understood that this was a manifestation of internal energy, but why did it resemble the Golden Bell Shield and Iron Cloth Shirt so much? Could it be that internal energy serves only this purpose?

Heiri Town, as its name suggests, is a transportation hub driven by the rich magical beast treasure industry of Heiri Forest

Having clarified with just a glass of water, he casually placed the gun beside him and began to look around with great interest

It is not your name that has been called incorrectly, so why are you angry? I can call myself whatever I like

At this moment, she believed, while internally reciting the countless eulogies she had already contemplated, including her father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, uncles, aunts, friends, classmates, computer, airplane, subway, toilet, hygiene, dining, napkins... martial arts school...

The Great Han paused slightly, and not only did his body emit light, but even the great sword had a faint halo. Mingxi's heart tightened; it turned out this was a wave of energy that could flow everywhere, reinforcing whatever it touched. This was truly troublesome, as he had never practiced any hard qigong, making him fundamentally weak and unable to compete.

Little did he know that the Han warrior, instead of turning the momentum to strike again, actually turned around to raise the great sword once more and brought it down again, startling Mingxi so much that his eyes nearly popped out.

She truly wishes to speak in a numb manner like Xianglin's Wife, saying: I am foolish, I am really foolish, I only know that the magical beasts in the forest might be the lost species of Shennongjia due to my lack of experience, ... yet I do not realize that Shennongjia is not that vast or terrifying at all, where could there be beasts that breathe fire and play with water ...

Despite the lack of response, she ultimately decided to secure this place first. It is still only afternoon, and there may be availability by evening.

Channing has already realized that arguing with Mingxi leads to no good outcome. With a cold snort, he turned his head and softly said: "Foolish woman"

Yes, there is another room available. Would you like to make a reservation?

Zha He - Picture - A weak mage named Ning Chan, as soon as he exerted force, he was immediately dragged back, and he said in a harsh and menacing tone: "I command you! Come with me!"

Everyone was making a fuss, and someone said: "Girl, don't worry, Kelu Duo is just a sack of straw in a burlap pillow! He can't even compete with the landlady, ha ha ha!"

A room? "How absurd," she frowned. "That scoundrel definitely won't let me sleep in the bed. Is there nothing more?"

The surface appears clear and easy, yet internally she is suffering greatly. She has little strength left, having never trained seriously at the martial arts school before, only focusing on integrating various martial arts techniques. Now that she is faced with real combat, it is astonishing that she finds herself unable to strike. Observing the robust man, his face flushed and exuding vigor, she can only weep silently in despair.

There was a buzz of discussion all around, and in the distance, some people were looking over with great interest

Before long, a rough voice interjected: "Little girl, what is this rod? Are you using it to dig out a wasp nest?"

It is already afternoon; if we leave the town now, it is unlikely that we will find any accommodation.

Although she won without using her fighting spirit and lost when she did, overall, she still lost because it is impossible for her to ask others not to use their fighting spirit before every fight

Suddenly, a commotion erupted around them; some were astonished that the burly man was actually a Level 3 swordsman, while others urged Mingxi to quickly use her fighting spirit

It is Warcraft

Thinking to myself, since I am using his resources now, it is not wrong; I might as well just listen.

Channing frowned in disgust, recalling that this small town indeed lacked upscale taverns. He could only point inside and clearly say: "Foolish woman, go in and find a clean spot and book a room for me!"

The speed is quite fast, but to just cut it down like this, without any foreplay, is it looking down on me? Mingxi felt somewhat displeased; she didn't even try to block, effortlessly sidestepping with a shift in her footwork, fully expecting the burly man to immediately pursue her.

The strong man, unwilling to back down, waved his fist and stepped forward, saying: "Do you look down on me, little girl? It's quite interesting to fight with you. Come on, let's go again!"

Inside, there were even a few dwarves holding large wooden cups drinking wine and two elves with pointed ears; however, their appearance was merely beautiful, lacking the extraordinary and ethereal qualities often described in novels.

Mingxi was startled and desperately held on, exclaiming: "What are you doing? The room has already been booked!"

Mingxi was startled by her own feelings; this woman was someone she had met for the first time, so how could she dislike her? Could it be that the contract was causing trouble again?

A faintly smug smile appeared on Mingxi's face as she turned her wrist to prepare to conclude the move. Unexpectedly, the burly man suddenly let out a loud roar, and a visible layer of yellow aura enveloped his entire body.

After playing for a while longer, Mingxi truly could not hold on any longer. He suddenly jumped back, made a stopping gesture, and shouted: "No more, no more!"

With a strange feeling, I clearly called Channing in at the door and casually pointed him to a seat.

Although she has never considered Tai Chi to possess lethal force or practical applicability, there were a few occasions during sparring when she inadvertently applied the principles of Tai Chi to turn danger into safety by using borrowed strength. Therefore, she wishes to try it again this time

The strong man, in a fit of rage, waved his fist and threatened the man: "You filthy rat, say that again and I'll beat you to death!"

After the event, both the participants and the spectators were thoroughly satisfied

She retrieved the gun from Channing and was just about to bring up the matter of the room when he suddenly grabbed her wrist and started walking out of the town

If the strong man has only these few moves, then one could evade them for a lifetime. Mingxi resolutely decided not to dodge any longer, flipped the red tassel spear, and unleashed the Shaolin staff technique. With a loud shout, he executed a move to seal the spear, using his skillful strength to thrust the tip of the staff forward, striking at the hand of the strong man holding the sword

The man was momentarily taken aback, then smiled heartily, picked up the large sword, and walked out. Mingxi followed closely behind, with a large crowd of onlookers trailing after them

The journey was through a dark forest that obscured the sky, and after so many days of walking, she had imagined various possibilities. The best scenario would be that it was this madman who had crossed over, and the two of them had been transported to Shennongjia. The worst would be that she herself had crossed over to a different world. However, this was too bizarre, and she had always been unwilling to believe it.

At first, the people around thought that Mingxi could not possibly compete with the burly man without resorting to brute force, and some even felt a sense of pity. However, after watching for a while, they could not help but be amazed. Although Mingxi's attacks were not particularly strong, his agility was commendable, and he often managed to redirect the burly man's offensive moves back onto himself, maintaining an even footing thus far

Knowing when to retreat is not a clear-cut approach; she paused for a moment, resolved to change her style, employing softness to overcome rigidity

There was a rather incongruous group of people at the table, all young and handsome men and women, except for one. Among them was a stunning beauty with long aquamarine hair, who sat quietly and serenely, yet evoked a strange emotion in Mingxi.

Bending down and gasping for breath, in immense pain: "Where is the fun in this? When I hit you, it feels like hitting steel; when you hit me, it feels like hitting cotton. I can't kill you, and you can't kill me. Where is the fun in that!"

Somewhat frustrated, she nonetheless accepted the reality; after all, she was merely a second-tier individual back in her hometown

Cut it out! Who asked you to protect me? We only encountered a wild beast once, and I just didn't react in time. Who was it that panicked and used me as a human shield after setting the fire? Scum! You really are as despicable as they say!

It is tragic for me, isn't it! My heart is clear yet unwilling, but that contract seems to truly exist. As long as I command myself in a serious tone, unless I resist to the death, I will feel a sense of willing compliance to fulfill his orders.

It seems to be aversion, or perhaps hatred

Admiration arises from the strength of the magician, while disdain is directed towards the scoundrel Channing, who is merely a fire-type magician

"How is that possible? Are you not alone?" The waiter was taken aback, glanced down at the records, shook his head, and said apologetically, "I’m sorry, there is only one room left, and it has a single bed."

The two walked along, bickering all the while, until they reached the entrance of a tavern. This tavern resembled those found in Western films, with its wooden structure and round door. Two small doors at the entrance swayed gently, and various sounds surged forth from within in waves.

Having said that, he turned his head and clearly stated: "Girl, I won't exert any effort, just let me take a look!"

The moment Mingxi raised the gun, his entire demeanor transformed, exuding an air of confidence and authority, radiating a striking brilliance that captivated the attention of everyone in the room

Mingxi was taken aback, and they did not know. They quickly shook their heads: "Just like iron plates, just like cotton cloth..."

The burly man roared and charged forward, throwing a punch directly at the face. Mingxi nimbly dodged, as if cradling a ball in her hands, her feet moving with a graceful rhythm, effortlessly evading the man's attack. Occasionally, she exchanged blows, managing to counterattack a couple of times.

From beginning to end, the clearly unpredictable techniques took the initiative, and the simple thrust of the strong man was completely unable to withstand it; he had not even reacted before his throat was pointed at.

All kinds of shops are available here, and it is currently the breeding season for monsters. A large number of monsters are wandering around the outskirts of the Black Sun Forest in search of food, including many young ones that are not very strong but have tender and smooth meat. This truly is a festival for adventurers, which has made the town particularly prosperous.

The Shaolin staff technique flows like a stream of clouds. First, it blocks and parries, then a heart-lifting move follows, succeeded by a grand beam thrust. The final move is a rolling staff lock, lifting the leg and shifting right, the tip of the staff swiftly thrusts directly at the throat of the burly man

Stretch your body and clearly demonstrate the starting posture of Tai Chi.

As soon as she entered, Mingxi was pushed back a step by the wave of sound, and immediately afterward, she caught a whiff of a very strange odor, a mixture of various scents.

Mingxi finally gave up after seeing the scene in the small town

"It's World of Warcraft!" Hearing this, Mingxi began to space out again. Channing, feeling quite annoyed, corrected her and shot her a fierce glare.

"Gun?" This burly man appears to be a swordsman. He set down his wine cup and picked up the sword, tapping it against the red tassel spear. "It looks truly strange. How is it used?"

With clarity, she glared back without showing any weakness: "Aren't beasts and monsters all just livestock? Why are you angry?"

After completing the registration procedures, as I was about to call out to Channing, I suddenly felt an unusual sensation towards a table of people.

Steel plate ... ... cotton ... ... what is it ... ... '' The Han man scratched his head, and those around him also showed expressions of confusion

The Great Han Sword once again launched an attack, its momentum unabated, clearly demonstrating a solid foundation in basic skills

Clear and quick response: "Scum!"

Although it is unclear why Channing is in such a hurry, Mingxi indeed wants to know if his own strength here is sufficient for self-defense. Thus, with a smile, he stands up and picks up his gun: "Well then, it is better to obey than to decline, let’s go out and compete!"

In a moment of clarity amidst hesitation, he was poked by Channing, and to his surprise, he had a tense expression, anxiously saying: "Agree! Hurry up, go out and compete, quickly agree!"

The Han man laughed heartily and said, "How come I didn't notice that this stick has so many functions? Little girl, come, come, come, let's compare notes." After saying this, he began to wave his arms amidst the cheers from the crowd.

After watching for a while, I realized that it was not much different from when I read fantasy novels, so I clearly walked towards the counter, where a beautiful female attendant was smiling at her

Channing's surface appeared very clean, yet he understood deep down that this tavern could never be truly clean. Thus, he could only wear a look of disgust, sitting down in silence, ordering a mug of barley beer, and furrowing his brow, lost in thought.
