Chapter 97 – Long Tao? Parkour?

Rocks, trees, fences, benches, anywhere he could find, Wei Xiao Bei did somersaults.

After a series of these, many people close by had started gathering around.

“This young man should be part of the of the Beijing opera right? It’s as good as watching the Long Taos,” a gray haired old man stared wide-eyed and exclaimed with praise.

Hearing the old man’s praise, a senior high school student was not as pleased, “Gramps, you’re out! This is not some Long Tao of Beijing opera. This is parkour! It is the most popular and coolest exercise method! If I could do that, how great would it be!”

Hearing the senior high schooler’s voice, young people who had never seen parkour before took out their phones and began taking pictures of Wei Xiao Bei’s movements, some even taking videos.

In short, from their point of view, coming to the park tonight was worth it. Just a picture alone would be more than enough to increase their followers on Weibo.

Nowadays, anyone could be a newscaster. As long as they found something appealing, interesting, or fun, anyone could become famous and popular.

As for parkour, Wei Xiao Bei had only previously glanced at it, never truly learning anything about parkour beforehand.

Parkour was originally an extreme sport that made everyday environments a sports field. People would rely just on their physical capabilities and quick speed to perform various feats.

This sport did not only train the body, it also trained a person’s flexibility and reaction time which was needed in order to minimize the risks.

According to some studies, people who learned parkour would have 20 times the survival rate of a normal person during fires, earthquakes, attacks, car accidents, etc.

In reality, Wei Xiao Bei’s current movements were not that different from parkour. The only thing different was that he had not tied it to parkour at all.

Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei was currently using the monkey style of Bajiquan. He borrowed the monkey style’s nimbleness, speed, movements, strikes, reaction and other intents.

After moving around the park a few times, Wei Xiao Bei felt that the people around him was still increasing. How could he still continue? In a flash, he leapt up to the trees using the branches as footholds, and quickly disappeared from everyone’s view.

When he disappeared, the people watching regretfully left, but they did not cause any disturbance.

Wei Xiao Bei returned to his apartment. He took a bath to clean off the sweat and laid down on his bed to think.

In his run or so called ‘parkour’, he had fully used his all.

It was truly different from his previous self.

The speed that had decreased due to increasing his muscle and sturdiness, had increased further.

If it was the previous Wei Xiao Bei who wanted to run around the park and perform somersaults, he would have quickly become a laughing stock

Whether it was his flexibility, reaction time, balance, or eye strength, everything had increased.

If Wei Xiao Bei was previously a brown bear, he was now an orangutan that could climb up trees.

When he was doing parkour in the park before, Wei Xiao Bei had also made a few mistakes. Luckily, he was able to use his strength to make up for it, adjusting his position when needed.

However, if he wanted to take another step to grasp his strength, he needed to increase the sub-attributes under agility to at least 15 points.

This was not a small number.

Wei Xiao Bei sighed. He got up the bed, thinking that now was not yet the time for sleep .

Moreover, he had just slept. Even if he wanted to sleep again, he was not sleepy at all.

He picked up the leg hair on the ground, opened the room door, and walked out.

It was late at night, so even if the neighbors saw what he was holding, it would only create a small problem.

Wei Xiao Bei was worried that the glossy leg hair that shone under the light would be seen by everyone.

However, leaving it in the room was not good either.

After thinking about it, he pressed the thicker end of the leg hair on his waist and used his strength to bend the leg hair around his waist.

The four meter long leg hair was enough to wrap around his waist a few times, leaving the soft end which was used to tie a knot.

At first glance, people would only think that Wei Xiao Bei had a big belly, or a hula hoop.

He returned back inside the apartment and changed the black sleeveless shirt for a jacket, making his best attempt to hide it.

It was already autumn and cold air was continuously blowing into the city. As a result, wearing a jacket would not be strange.

After leaving the gate, Wei Xiao Bei patted his belly and smiled with satisfaction.

Luckily, the leg hair was very flexible; else, it would not have been as convenient to bring it with him.

When he reached the road, he hailed a cab with an excited expression.

Once his great spear is finished, bringing it around would also be convenient.

Wei Xiao Bei got down once he reached the dojo.The doors were closed, but he did not want to disturb his master and senior apprentice brothers with a phone call. He retreated ten steps and then used all his leg strength to stride forward. When he reached the wall, he stepped on it with his left foot and jumped up. His form was like a monkey jumping up, and once he was over the wall, he lightly supported himself and landed like a bird.

“Who!”

What he never imagined was that when he had not yet even landed, a familiar voice sounded. Soon a shadow charged over.

“Third senior apprentice brother, it’s me.”

Following Wei Xiao Bei’s voice, the shadow stopped. The fist that he was brandishing had almost hit Wei Xiao Bei’s nose.

“Why didn’t you call?” His third senior apprentice brother, Yao Wu, withdrew his fists. He threw away his usual reserved state while fixing his eyes on Wei Xiao Bei’s fattened appearance.

“I was afraid of disturbing your sleep.”

When Wei Xiao Bei answered, two more shadows leapt out from the central hall.

Yao Wu’s question and alertness had startled the master and the big senior apprentice brother who were playing chess. As a result, they both came.

Seeing Wei Xiao Bei return, Cheng Bi Wu nodded his head, “There are still leftovers in the kitchen. If you are hungry you can heat it up.”

After saying this, Cheng Bi Wu turned around and prepared to continue his match with Liu Jian Cheng. He never imagined that Wei Xiao Bei had brought him a pleasant surprise.

……

“Master, do you know anyone who would be able to make a great spear?”

Wei Xiao Bei pulled his master and apprentice brothers into the indoor practice ground and awkwardly asked.

In reality, Wei Xiao Bei did not want to expose the leg hair of the Citizen of Long Bo, but other than his master and apprentice brothers, he did not know who to ask for help.
