beyond eight

Chapter 1

In October, the golden carp transforms into a dragon, and the leaves and flowers fly.

A girl stood in front of the window and looked at the bustling crowd below. While she was lost in thought, she was suddenly hit on the head from behind by a thick menu.

"manager!"

She turned around and saw the manager with a dark look on his face. He was glared at fiercely again. Only then did he realize that there was a customer greeting him. She hurried over with an embarrassed look on her face. The girl's name was"Liu Xin", and she was only 20 years old. Years old, tall and with a pretty face, she was a freshman in college and worked part-time in this coffee shop during her seven-day holiday.

"Hello, what do you need?"She said seriously

"Little girl, do you know how to get to the gym upstairs?"

A young couple was sitting in front of Liu Xin, and the man was speaking.

"This is really not clear."She smiled slightly. In fact, she understood best in her heart. She just didn't want to waste more words.

"Pay the bill."

After the young couple left, she looked at her watch and saw that it was her time to get off work. After clocking in and changing clothes, she bought three cups of milk tea in the mall and headed to the gym on the top floor.

The shop where Liu Xin worked was in a medium-sized commercial building Inside, the so-called gyms are actually several bright practice halls, which are impressive because they occupy an exaggeratedly small half of the floor. The entire top floor is the private club of the local richest man. Since catering and entertainment are all available, it is very impressive. It gives people the illusion of being open to the outside world. However, if you want to get to the top floor, you have to pass the face recognition in the elevator. Even though there are clear instructions on the billboard, it still accidentally arouses the curiosity of some people, and some even deliberately get involved. , but she would always be stopped by the receptionist when she went down the stairs. In the past few days, there have been several inquiries like that couple asked her. If she answered too many questions, she would not bother to explain and avoid trouble.

"The lady is off work! Let me get it for you."A female receptionist at the elevator entrance said with a smile.

"Need not"

"Why? Miss"

"What's wrong?"She turned around and asked

"Mr. Liu asked you to call him back."

"Huh, I'm too lazy to reply to him, okay, got it."

After looking at each other and smiling, she walked towards the practice hall. From a distance, she saw the people inside squatting. The practice hall is located on the west side of the seventh floor. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was shining brightly, and the entire floor-to-ceiling windows were basking in the sun. There is no cover underneath, and the instructor has specially turned off the air conditioner in order to train the students' willpower. At this time, the inside is like a steamer. Even if you don't move, you will sweat, let alone the students who have been practicing for a long time.

"‘"Liangyi Zhuang" is one of the basic skills of"Bajiquan" and is the foundation of the foundation. Internally, pay attention to concentration and breath control, and focus on guarding the Dantian; externally, you need to hold your chest and straighten your back, push your elbows with your arms, raise your buttocks and tuck in your abdomen, buckle your knees inward and squat naturally. The squatting range is not as deep as Nanquan. Look at the knees from the side. It should be kept parallel to the toes, and there are 16 words of the chant. At the beginning, you should silently recite it in your mind to find the feeling."

The coach is a 25-year-old handsome guy named"Chang Sheng", who is 185 years old and very energetic. He is patrolling among them while explaining and correcting their movements.

‘Only ten minutes...’He saw that they were all covered in sweat and their legs were shaking. He looked at his watch and helplessly called for a break. As soon as he finished speaking, the 50 or so shirtless students all relaxed, and there was a sound in the hall.

"Always prosperous!"Liu Xin pushed open the glass door.

"Holy shit! milk tea."Chang Sheng was thirsty for a long time. He saw the milk tea in her hand and walked towards her. Knowing the curator's taste, he took another cup and drank it in big gulps.

"How are these students doing? she asked

"Hey, I can only say that it’s okay. It will take a while to practice well."

"Then take care of them."

The two laughed and chatted for a few minutes. Chang Sheng called the students to continue training, and she turned and walked to the next door.

Next door is the curator's room. When the curator is there, he will usually pull down the blinds, and the area of ​​more than 30 square meters is decorated. It's pretty good. There are expensive solid wood floors, and a book shelf is placed against the wall. There are a few martial arts books and CDs scattered on it. Others are a large number of canned rock teas. A picture of"Open the door" is hung on the north wall. The large characters of"Bajiquan" and the continuous characters are framed with fine nanmu. Below is the desk, which is also a log case for drinking tea. It is surrounded by 6 hospitality chairs and a red tea mat. A set of high-end tea sets and a kettle, a laptop and a high-end Bluetooth speaker, and a separate luxury bathroom at Mr. Liu’s request. At this time, the speaker played old songs of more than 10 years, and the curator"Long Feng"" He was leaning on the back of the chair with his eyes closed and puffing away, enjoying the leisurely time alone.

Long Feng, everyone close to him calls him"Feng". He was born in an ordinary family. At the age of thirteen, due to fate, He practiced"Bajiquan" and was somewhat idle after working at the age of 24. It was only in recent years that he opened a martial arts gym with the support of"Xiaoyu". Chang Sheng was his junior brother and he was specially seconded from the Mengcun martial arts gym. Coming

"Even if I can't see you again, you're the only one……"The ringtone of an incoming call interrupted the song on the speaker. He squinted to look for his cell phone on the tea table, but unexpectedly he suddenly found Liu Xin sitting quietly opposite.

"when did you come?"He was shocked

"I've been here for a long time, but I saw you squinting and didn't dare to speak."She said innocently

"Won't you knock on the door when you come in? Like a ghost, I will be scared to death sooner or later by you." He complained while answering the phone:"Hello"

"Are you okay tonight?"

"Something happened"

"Okay, have some drinks tonight"

"What, you're back?"

"I just got off the plane, it’s about 9 o’clock, by the way, Ajian and Siliang are shouting together if they have time."

"Okay, let's see"

"Hey, that damn girl has been honest these past two days, right?"

"she? Feng looked at the opposite side with confusion, and saw her clasping her hands together, begging for mercy,"I don't know, you don't know how to ask yourself?""

"she? He has ignored me since the last argument."

"Call her that night"

"I get annoyed just by looking at her, why do I still call her?"

"Okay, give it up."

After Feng hung up impatiently, Xiaoxin breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and complained to him about Xiaoyu. Generally speaking, Xiaoyu was getting more and more strict with her, and even bribed her classmates to spy on her because she was out of reach.

Feng was very She had long been accustomed to the way their siblings communicated. They had been quarreling since childhood and sometimes they acted like enemies when they met. He listened absentmindedly while drinking tea, and sometimes responded with something that only aroused her resentment, often Sheng also came over to rest after class. The two men listened to her angrily and slapped the table and yelled from time to time. Time passed very slowly, but finally it was evening.

"Let’s eat first."

Feng glanced at the time and it was already 5:30. Both he and Chang Sheng had calluses on their ears. Xiaoxin was tired from nagging. He and Chang Sheng agreed in unison and rushed out. When choosing between Chinese or Western food , Chang Sheng, who won the guessing game, chose the restaurant to sit down.

Feng's appetite was the least, Chang Sheng was at least twice as much as him, and Xiaoxin was also a big eater. She always showed off in front of her friends that she didn't get fat no matter how much she ate..While watching them devouring their food, Feng’s phone rang.

"Master! ?"He told them to keep their voices down when they didn't get through. After adjusting, he answered the phone:"Master"

"Feng, are you not busy?"

"I'm not busy. What's wrong, Master?"Feng sat up straight and asked seriously.

"You are a new junior sister. She said she was going to your place to do some errands and wanted to visit you by the way. I gave her your contact information. You can take care of anything."

"Good Master, don’t worry, Master"

"Is Chang Sheng good?"

"Very good. If the martial arts school is busy, let him go back at any time. Master, I will let him pick it up. Feng said and handed the phone to Chang Sheng. He immediately cheered up and started chatting with the master.

"...Master, do you have anything else to do? Do you still use Brother Feng to answer the phone?"

"It's okay, no need. After hanging up ,

Xiaoxin burst into laughter,"I think it's like a mouse meeting a cat when you two make a phone call. Is that what it's about?""

"Oh, that's because you haven't seen other brothers, those are just like mice."

Chang Sheng said as he handed a cigarette to Feng. Unexpectedly, Feng's phone rang again. This time it was an unfamiliar number. 'So soon?' He guessed it was something the master had just told him.

Sure enough, it was the junior sister who called. Yes, and she would arrive at night. Because she was unfamiliar with the place, she wanted Feng to pick her up. After confirming the time to get off the bus, she agreed immediately.

"I'll go home first and meet downstairs at 9 o'clock"

"Oh la. Feng stood up with a cigarette in his mouth. Chang Sheng's mouth was still full of meat, but Xiaoxin lowered his head to eat but had no reaction. He reminded Chang Sheng,"By the way, she has to pay. Everyone on the floor knows, who knows?" Sign her a contract and deduct double her salary."

"What!"Xiaoxin put down her chopsticks and cursed Xiaoyu again. Feng turned around with a smile and walked out the door.
