Chapter 750: The duel between master and disciple, an unexpected result
Translator: 549690339
“Ah? A duel?” CEng Liang’s dead fish eyes were still wide open as he read this to BA Jiao calmly.
“That’s right! Let this bird-like student be the judge!” BA Jiao pointed at Xiao Tan.
“I’m sun …” Even though he felt like he should not say it, Xiao Tan still corrected him.
“Then … It’s finally time to teach this conceited disciple a lesson …” BA Jiao ignored the reactions of the two people and said to herself. The next second … She took off her shirt.
His kimono was a one-piece, because there was a belt around his waist. Even if he undid the upper half of his clothes, the entire piece would not fall off.!!
“The final profound …” BA Jiao stood up straight with his arms bare and legs apart. Then, he raised his hands and straightened his palms, parallel to his forearms. Then … Like a crab waving its pincers, he swung his arms up and down and said with a constipated expression,”take this! Matsuo’s thousand-hand Guanyin!”
“It’s just two hands …” Xiao Tan looked at the man’s playful expression and could not find the energy to mock him.
“Hahaha … You must be shocked.” BA Jiao smiled smugly and looked at CEng Liang.”This move … Uses the high-speed movement of the hands to create layers of afterimages and turn into the appearance of the thousand-hand Guanyin …”
“I already said I only have two hands …” Zeng Liang replied coldly.
“Eh? Didn’t you get more hands?” BA Jiao was stunned.
“No…” Xiao Tan used a tone of certainty to reply.
Upon hearing this, BA Jiao increased the frequency of her waving hands.””Then what about this?”
“It’s no use …” Xiao Tan gave a more complete rejection.
“Is that so … Is that so …” BA Jiao mumbled thoughtfully, and the movements of her hands gradually slowed down.”Then … Forget it …”
At this point, he put on his clothes again in a flash and showed an expression of inspiration. He said,””There it is! Let’s use a poem to decide the winner!”
“This turn of events is too sudden!” Xiao Tan was shocked.”By the way … If you move your hands at the speed you move when you put on your clothes, you might be able to create an afterimage!”
“Hehehe …” BA Jiao ignored Xiao Tan’s words again. His face turned dark and he said in a scary tone,”the rule is … From now on, all the conversations between me and Zeng Liangjun will be conducted in the five-seven-five format …”
“So, you’re the one who set the rules,” Xiao Tan mumbled.”I thought it was me who was the judge …”
“Alright! Let the match begin!” BA Jiao did not let Xiao Tan finish and interrupted loudly.
On the other side, CEng Liang was as calm as ever and quickly said,”I say, banana (5). What do you like to eat (7)? what are they (5)?”
“I love eating sea urchins.” BA Jiao almost blurted out.
After the two finished speaking, silence descended …
About five seconds later, BA Jiao flew into a rage out of humiliation and shouted,””Not yet! I haven’t lost yet!”
“Er … I should be the judge to decide whether we lose or not …” Xiao Tan’s lips twitched as he continued,”but honestly … Do I really need to judge such an obvious result?”
“At this point …” BA Jiao still ignored Xiao Tan. She rushed to Zeng Liang and said,”…Swimming is the only option! Let’s use swimming to decide the winner!” He pointed to the side and said,”let’s fight in the small river over there. Whoever can swim to the big stone upstream first wins!”
“Alright.” CEng Liang replied calmly.
“Eh?” Xiao Tan was not worried about the young and strong CEng Liang, but … BA Jiao was not that reliable.”That’s too much! Bajiao Mulberry!” He also looked at the river.”The river’s current is very fast!”
“Stop being so long-winded!” BA Jiao pulled on Xiao Tan’s wings and ran to the river.”I want to compete!”
…………
Two minutes later …
Wang Tanzhi, Matsuo Basho, and hehe CEng Liang … Arrived at the river.
Although it was in a town, such a small river still existed. As it was connected to the sewage pipes in the city, the river was not clean and the flow was quite rapid.
“Let’s cut the chit chat. I’ll be the one to call the ready!” The three of them had just stood by the river when BA Jiao impatiently walked to the front.”Everyone, take your places …”
Before he could finish his sentence, one of his feet had already stepped into the water. In less than half a second … His entire body slid down, and he even inexplicably shouted,””Let’s go out!”
“A shot outside?” Xiao Tan repeated with uncertainty and watched as the banana tree … Was washed away by the water.
“Argh! The water is so urgent!” BA Jiao, who had been carried away by the water flow for more than ten meters, finally revealed a look of panic.”Wait a minute … What the hell is this? He couldn’t swim! I’m not playing anymore! Hee…Hee …”
Seeing this, CEng Liang, who was standing by the shore, spoke to Xiao Tan in a neutral tone,””Did you see that?(5), Matsuo banana was in the river (7). It was washed away (5).”
“What are you doing over there? Your master has been washed away by the water!” Xiao Tan roared,”and … Why are you still using the tone of five, seven, and five?!”
…………
15 minutes later …
Two kilometers downstream.
“We’ve walked so far, but there’s still no sign of him. Where did he run off to?” Xiao Tan mumbled as he followed CEng Liang.
“The river bed downstream has become shallow. It will probably stop somewhere.” Compared to Xiao Tan, CEng Liang’s attitude was even colder. It was as if the person who was washed away was a stranger … No, it should be said that … He was someone who was not even a stranger.
Before the two finished, a light green shadow appeared in Xiao Tan’s line of sight.
His current Falcon Vision was extremely powerful, and he could clearly see things extremely far away. Thus, he could tell at a glance … That it was the lower half of BA Jiao’s body that was stuck upside down in the river bed.
Long story short, with Xiao Tan and CEng Liang’s combined effort, BA Jiao soon came out of the river.
“Bajiaosang … Are you okay?” Xiao Tan looked at the disheveled BA Jiao and asked.
After going ashore, BA Jiao sprawled on the ground with water all over his body, looking as if he had collapsed.””Thanks to you, I’m saved …” He paused for a moment and explained,”my head was caught by the rocks on the river bed, which is why I’m floating in the air like I was just now.”
“I said … Bajiao Mulberry.” “You were the one who suggested a swimming duel,” Xiao Tan said.”In the end, you were washed away by the water … That’s already embarrassing enough. Don’t reveal such disgraceful details …”
“Nonsense!” After BA Jiao caught his breath, he regained his energy.”I, Matsuo BA Jiao, killed the Holy one … I jumped into the river to protect the village downstream. I used my proud muscles to withstand the current …”
“This obviously nonsense is also part of legend of banana tree,” Xiao Tan said with narrowed eyes.
However, BA Jiao’s nonsense did not stop there. He continued,””However … My disciple CEng Liangjun, who saw this, was jealous of the handsome Matsuo … Shuai Wei for short … So he …”
“I’ll paste your bear face!” CEng Liang slapped BA Jiao and shut his mouth.
“It looks like your method is still effective,” Xiao Tan said.
“That’s for sure,” Zeng Liang replied.
“Damn it …” BA Jiao was still unconvinced. He stood up with a whoosh.”Listen up … There’s still the final battle …”
“You still haven’t given up?” Xiao Tan facepalmed and shook his head.
At this moment, he only hoped to end this side mission quickly so that he wouldn’t suffer any permanent mental damage.
“Hehehehe …” The confidence in BA Jiao’s smile was simply unbelievable.”That’s right … In this final moment … Let’s use our handsomeness to determine the winner!”
He turned around and pointed at Xiao Tan.”This student, as the judge … You have to make a good decision for this match!”
“Eh? “Do you still remember that I’m the judge?” Xiao Tan was startled.”Speaking of which … I did not even have the chance to make a decision before this.”
“Are you ready? Zeng Liangjun!” BA Jiao took half a step back and looked at Xiao Tan.”Hey, this student, between Zeng Liangjun and me, who is more handsome? Please speak with your conscience!”
“Zeng Liangjun.” Xiao Tan’s answer came so quickly.
“You …” Banana dog jumped up in a hurry.”What the hell are you doing!” As he shouted, he ran toward Xiao Tan.
“Eh? What was going on? Battle?” This time, Xiao Tan was caught off guard. He had thought that in this amusing scenario, there would not be any battle, so he was not prepared …
Then, BA Jiao grabbed Xiao Tan’s collar and pushed him to the ground. Then … He reached his other hand into his hair and started to brush away the scalp.
“Feel the wrath of the God of haiku! Dancing snow in the nine Heavens!” BA Jiao Chuunibyou shouted out the name of the move.
At this moment … Xiao Tan was deeply shocked.
Looking at the bits of scalp on his face, he was speechless. He didn’t want to stand up and resist, because … He felt that it was too cruel to take this kind of funny person seriously.
“Sigh … Forget it …” At this moment, Zeng Liangjun sighed,”consider it my loss.”
“Eh?” Upon hearing this, BA Jiao immediately stopped what she was doing.”Really? Then I’m the handsome tail?”
“Ah … Yes, yes …” CEng Liang continued weakly,”wind flow tail.”
“What? I won?” BA Jiao’s expression instantly changed to one of innocence. He stopped his ‘dancing snow’ and pulled out something from his pocket. He placed it in Xiao Tan’s hand.”In any case, thank you, student …”
Before he could finish, he pulled CEng Liang away and waved at Xiao Tan from a distance.””Bye-bye!”
[Side quest completed]
[Special scenario bonus reward: Japanese flying Horse doll]
When Xiao Tan came back to his senses, the two had already walked far away, and the system audio stated … The ‘thing’ that BA Jiao had shoved into his hand before he left was the reward for this quest.
