Chapter 457 Eight Dragon Subduing Palms
There is a saying: "Chu Sai meets the Three Xiangs, and Jingmen connects the Nine Rivers."
As the most central area of Donghuang, the E-Chu region occupies a very high position in terms of human geography, economics and education.
"Octopus bucket hot dry noodles~" (Is it really not fishy?)
“Authentic green onion duck neck~” (Green onion duck: “Still won’t let me go? (╥﹏╥)”)
"Steamed pork with rice flour~" (This one really tastes good!)
Cao Wei followed Master Guo on a plane for more than 800 miles and finally arrived in the E-Chu region and came to a local snack street.
"Wow, I think it will taste good."
Looking at the dazzling array of food stalls and the pedestrians on both sides of the road who were holding plastic bags, umbrellas and other items with their fingers but still eating hot dry noodles in paper bowls, Cao Wei couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Cao Wei was already hungry and confused. He had just encountered the incident with Shuijun at noon, and ended up flying to the E-Chu area in the afternoon.
This time was different from the previous times. The flight was very complete, but there was no time to rest. The meals provided on the plane were not enough to fill you up. So Cao Wei couldn't walk as soon as he arrived in the downtown area.
"This is just the beginning. This place is most famous for its scenic spots. These are the treasures of our country for thousands of years."
Guo Wenxia's vanity was slightly satisfied when he saw Cao Wei's appearance. He then dragged Cao Wei, who was already intoxicated by the incense, away from a roadside stall. He wanted to reach the Jianglong Gym as soon as possible.
It was not easy to trick him into coming here, and it seems that this kid has a unique talent and is definitely a good candidate for specializing in Fighting-type Pokémon.
My wife and I have been working at Jianglong Dojo for more than ten years. At the beginning, it was fine. The couple managed the dojo together and had no problem taking care of it. We could even go out for a trip occasionally to relax our body and mind.
But it is no longer possible now, because the Jianglong Gym is about to have a little burden.
That’s right, Master Guo’s wife is pregnant. Under this circumstance, the energy required to manage the gym has become dozens of times more than before, which is also not conducive to her physical maintenance.
Although Gym Master Guo's wife once said that it was okay and that she could still face the challengers in gym battles even if she was pregnant, Gym Master Guo was unwilling to do so.
Then, an idea popped into Master Guo’s mind.
"Why can't we find someone of equal ability and decent character to be the acting gym leader?"
Unlike Liu Li who directly inherited the position of gym leader, the acting gym leader only has the title of gym leader. No matter whether the alliance holds a meeting or any other project, the acting gym leader basically has no say.
Not only do you have to face the fierce challengers who appear every day, you also have to have a stable win-loss ratio. You can't win all the time, nor can you lose all the time. You can't fight too easily, but you also can't show that you are struggling. You also have to teach the challengers a lesson.
It can be said that there are no rights at all and no responsibilities at all.
Of course, it's not that there are no benefits at all. At least the salary is very high, generally more than 20,000. If you play well in the gym competition or become famous, you will get a little bonus. . .
The above are the responsibilities and remunerations of the acting museum owner. In other words, this is the position that Guo Wenxia wants Cao Wei to take.
In fact, if we only consider the salary, there are still many people who want to do this job. After all, no one can resist money.
But all of this requires a prerequisite: you have a home!
The job of acting museum owner basically lasts for a year or so. Not to mention going home, you can't even make a few phone calls when you're busy.
It can be said that this job is like the future of civil engineering students in university, with almost no home to speak of.
In this way, those who have a family and do this job might find their home robbed when they get home, and those who don't have a family will find it even more unlikely that they will have one after taking this job.
Cao Wei was stunned when he heard this. He knew that nothing good would happen if he followed this museum owner, but he didn't expect that the other party would directly give him a big shit.
"No, Master Guo, you treat me like Sunday?"
"I don't want to do this crappy job even if you give it to me for free!"
"No, brother Cao Wei, I really think you are gifted, so I don't want a piece of jade to be buried on campus." Guo Wenxia said without blushing.
"Come on, you obviously think I'm easy to fool!" Cao Wei pointed out with great dissatisfaction.
Master Guo, whose thoughts were exposed, did not feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he explained, "But Brother Cao, no one is more suitable for this job than you."
"Look, from what I know, you once studied under Ms. Lu, the owner of Piaoxiang Dojo. Your combat ability is beyond reproach. You are definitely qualified to be a dojo owner."
No matter how many holes there are, flattery never gets worn out. Guo Wenxia has indeed been a few years older than Cao Wei, and he immediately started to brag.
"And based on your Blazing Roaring Tiger, if we talk about who is the strongest of this generation, this title belongs to you."
This is true. Not to mention the Blazing Roaring Tiger, even the weakest Morubi in the team is not someone that anyone can touch.
"Moreover, unlike other acting gym leaders, our Jianglong Gym not only pays very high salaries, but also provides the secret techniques that have been passed down from generation to generation in our gym!"
"Secrets of moves?" Guo Wenxia's words immediately caught Cao Wei's attention. He remembered what Deoxys had said before and immediately followed what Master Guo said and asked:
"What secret moves?"
"Ahem, I can't tell you this for now, but I can assure you that this is definitely a very powerful move, otherwise it wouldn't have been passed down from generation to generation in our gym."
Seeing that Cao Wei was moved, Guo Wenxia turned around and went to get the contract for acting gym leader, determined to keep Cao Wei in Jianglong Gym today.
To be honest, Cao Wei was fooled.
It sounds good, but Cao Wei still sensed something was amiss, but he just couldn't figure it out.
Finally, after signing the contract and seeing Guo Wenxia take out the secret manual of martial arts, this feeling of uneasiness finally took shape.
I saw that the secret book of fighting skills was in tatters. Unlike those books that were very old and could not be well preserved, the one in front of me looked more like a book that had been aged to make others believe it was an old book.
If you want to know how I can tell, it’s because the book didn’t even have the QR code torn off, so it looks like it has existed for decades.
I saw a few large words stamped in gold on the tattered book:
