Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 249
Chapter 249: This Brat is Not Bad
The elder smiled slyly and then looked at Xu Cheng. “Will you be able to though?”
Xu Cheng stretched his arm. “I can carry even if you add ten more grandpas on top of you.”
Then, he lowered his body. “Come on.”
The elder got onto Xu Cheng’s back and wrapped his hand around his neck. Then, he concentrated his qi into his dantian region and cemented down his force.
When Xu Cheng tried to get up, he realized that the old man was abnormally heavy. He completely didn’t expect it and almost threw his back out, and his legs even shivered a bit.
Then, he narrowed his eyes and immediately realized that this elder was no simple old man.
The elder laughed and asked, “Didn’t I warn you? You might not be able to.”
“Who said so?” Xu Cheng faintly smiled and then summoned more strength. When he slightly lifted the elder, the elder used his internal force and weighed himself down even more.
Xu Cheng instantly felt as if ten big bags of rice were added onto his body. This heavy old grandpa made him take a big breath in.
The elder smiled kindly and said, “Don’t force yourself, young man. You will get laughed at by others if you were to throw your back out.”
Xu Cheng also laughed. “Elder, I’m not good in other parts but my waist is excellent. I still want to save it to perform well for my wife in the future. Don’t worry, carrying you is just a piece of cake.”
Then, Xu Cheng gritted his teeth and multiplied his force by ten times and immediately carried the elder up as he stood up tall and firm.
The elder’s eyes slightly brightened and the corner of his mouth seemed like he was smiling but also not really. Immediately, he channeled his internal force and increased his weight again.
If it felt like 10 bags of rice just moments ago, then right now, Xu Cheng felt like a heavy-duty safe had just slammed onto his body. Completely unexpected, Xu Cheng almost coughed out blood.
“Elder, you are pretty heavy, aren’t you?” Xu Cheng took a step and found it to be particularly difficult.
The elder smiled. “My home might be a bit far from here.”
Xu Cheng gritted his teeth. “It’s fine, I told you I’m going to carry you home so I’m going to do it.”
Then, Xu Cheng moved forward, step by step, and by the time he had gotten out of the park, his forehead was already covered in sweat. Those people waiting at the bus stop all found it pretty strange to see such a young and burly guy getting this tired out from carrying a vulnerable-looking white-haired old man. It took him one second per step, and people didn’t take notice that with each step Xu Cheng made, he left behind a deep footprint, clearly showing how heavy the old man was.
The elder couldn’t help but ask Xu Cheng, “Little brat, how do you exercise normally? Your body’s not bad, right?”
Xu Cheng wiped his sweat as he said a bit provocatively, “It’s alright.”
“Oh, is that so?” This time, the elder completely unleashed all of his force, weighing down on Xu Cheng’s back.
Xu Cheng’s was walking on some stones when his foot suddenly shattered the stone slabs and his back almost completely dropped forward. When his back was bent to about 30 degrees, Xu Cheng gritted his teeth and raised his power to 15x in order to avoid kneeling.
The elder was feeling more and more satisfied as a smile hung on his face.
Not only didn’t Xu Cheng go down to the ground, he even raised his power to 20x to get his back straightened again. Then, he took a deep breath, not wanting to let this old man gradually drain his energy and damage his muscle tissue endurance, so he directly summoned explosive energy and began running.
The elder’s eyes opened up wide. This brat can actually still run in this situation?
He was slightly dumbfounded.
Xu Cheng wasn’t feeling comfortable at all though, carrying a heavy-azz old man that weighed almost a thousand kilograms while running. At this moment, Xu Cheng’s phone began ringing. He said to the old man, “Elder, can you grab my phone from my back pocket?”
The elder nodded, grabbed his phone, and picked up, “Hello?”
Lin Chuxue was a bit shocked at first since it clearly didn’t sound like Xu Cheng.
“Xu Cheng’s not available right?”
“Oh, he’s carrying me to cross the road right now. You must be his wife, right? Your man has a good waist and a kind heart.”
Xu Cheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry, mourning in his heart, “Come on, old man, you don’t have to make comments about my waist…” (TL Note: waist is tied to bed performance)
On the other end, Lin Chuxue also felt a bit awkward. “Can you let him take the call?”
“Alright.” The old man nodded and then placed the phone by Xu Cheng’s ear. Xu Cheng replied with a weak voice, “Hello?”
Lin Chuxue: “Are you on your last breath?”
Xu Cheng: “About so. This old man is not simple, he’s heavy like a mountain. I really suspect he is Buddha in disguise.”
Just as he finished, he got slapped by the elder. “Be polite to me.”
Xu Cheng didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry.
Lin Chuxue chuckled. “I know you are fine now since you can still joke around. Oh right, thank you for taking care of that thing for me. I’m already preparing my travelling visa now, I will give you a call when I’m done.”
Xu Cheng: “Alright.”
After hanging up, the old man laughed and said, “You have a wife?”
Xu Cheng glared at him. “Why do you sound surprised? Can’t I have one?”
Old Man: “Are you dedicated to her?”
Xu Cheng: “Cannot be more dedicated, she’s my childhood sweetheart, but what does that have to do with you?”
The old man patted him on the back. “Alright, just let me down here.”
Xu Cheng: “You sure?”
Elder: “Just let me down.”
Xu Cheng stopped his steps and slowly put him down. Then, completely drained of energy, he laid down on the grass by the road and panted as he said to the old man, “Elder, are you really coming tomorrow?”
The old man nodded. “Yeah, but why don’t you ask who I am?”
Xu Cheng laughed. “I can vaguely guess already. Just now, I told my wife that you are no simple old man, and besides not being simple in terms of strength, your identity is also not simple.”
The elder faintly smiled. “Identity? Just because of the Dahongbao tea?”
“Not completely.” Xu Cheng said, “At the award ceremony for the military region competition, I still remember the general commander saying that I really resemble an old friend of his and he said he would let him meet me one day. He said that friend is someone that still has a young heart despite his old age, and at that moment you picked up my phone, I felt that you are probably that old friend of the general commander, right? To be able to still know how to use a smartphone at this age and also drink Dahongpao, you are no simple old man.”
The old man laughed and said to Xu Cheng, “Alright, I will come again tomorrow.”
Then, he left.
When Xu Cheng stood up and still wanted to say a few more words, he saw that the old man had already gotten onto a bus and disappeared into the busy city.
After the elder got onto the busy bus, the guard got up and gave him the seat. The old man couldn’t stop smiling and said, “Interesting… Observation skills, insight, brain reaction speed, power, and comprehensive strength are all exceptional. More importantly, he’s a very dedicated person, and one that’s dedicated to a relationship can usually persevere. Not bad.”
The guard curiously asked, “Master, then are we recruiting him into the Dragon Division?”
The old man: “I have my plans.”
