After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 420 The Secret Weapon

Jinbao and Zhouzhou sprinted back to the cemetery they had visited earlier. Jinbao leaped in first, immediately latching onto a spirit and licking it.

Only after a while did he remember Zhouzhou, turning its head to call her with a "meow" and waving its chubby paw at her.

Come on in.

Zhouzhou followed without hesitation, her eyes sparkling as she gazed at the spirits. Tilting her small head, she asked, "Grandpas, uncles, and brothers, can you teach me how to defeat my dad?"

They were all her dad's colleagues, surrounded by halos of merit, surely they must be just as formidable.

Her question took aback the spirits, then floated over in unison, astonished. "Little girl, you can see us?"

Zhouzhou nodded, pointing proudly to the three copper coins hanging around her neck. "Yes, I can! I came from a Taoist temple!"

"That explains it," an elderly spirit remarked, suddenly enlightened. "No wonder Little Wei said your incense is especially delicious."

Little Wei, the one who had sacrificed himself at seventeen.

Zhouzhou glanced at him and smiled.

The spirits had overheard the conversation between the father and daughter. Being part of the Fourth Bureau, they often roamed around and naturally knew Ye Lingfeng.

Defeating that boy wasn't an easy task.

However.

The elderly spirit eyed Zhouzhou, a twinkle in his eye. "Little girl, we can teach you, but you have to do us a favor."

Zhouzhou nodded eagerly. "Grandpa, what do you need?"

The elderly spirit pointed to her bag. "Burn some of that incense for me that you gave to Little Wei. He said it smells wonderful and makes us old folks feel good."

Spirits didn't need to eat, but incense was a delight for them.

Zhouzhou grinned. "No problem!"

She immediately pulled out a handful of incense from her bag, offering each spirit a stick.

This incense, taken from the Taoist temple, was of the highest quality.

The spirits savored the fragrance, feeling genuinely comfortable, and nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, we'll teach you."

Zhouzhou stood up straight, eyes eagerly fixed on them.

Little Wei floated over. Despite his early demise, he retained a playful air.

He circled Zhouzhou, stroking his chin before clearing his throat. "I'll teach you the first move. Follow my instructions."

Zhouzhou nodded vigorously, full of anticipation.

The other spirits floated closer, curious to watch.

Little Wei said, "First, raise your little fist to your cheek."

Zhouzhou followed, puzzled as to why she wasn't striking out.

Zhouzhou nodded earnestly. "I understand. I'll do my best!"

Seeing her determination, Director Lin nodded. "Alright, Little Wei, spar with her first. Let's see her strength."

"Okay."

Little Wei didn't hold back, cupping his hands before attacking.

Zhouzhou didn't dodge, her short leg kicking out.

The length of her kick made the spirits shake their heads, thinking it wouldn't reach higher than a knee.

However, in the next moment, Little Wei's expression changed, gasping in pain and stumbling.

Director Lin's hand froze mid-stroke of his beard, a gleam in his eye.

This girl was extraordinary.

He said nothing, gesturing to another spirit. "Little Chen, your turn."

"Yes."

A lean spirit stepped forward, engaging Zhouzhou.

Little Chen was known for his speed and agility, keeping his distance to avoid her kicks. This time, Zhouzhou found it much harder to land a blow, the fight reaching a stalemate.

But Zhouzhou remained calm, her eyes locked on him, seeking an opportunity.

Director Lin nodded in approval. She had good composure.

But her limitations were clear.

After nearly a hundred moves, Director Lin raised his hand. "Enough. Come here every morning at six. Can you do that?"

"I can!" Zhouzhou nodded vigorously.

Satisfied with her earnestness, Director Lin nodded. "Good. Go home now. We need to discuss your training plan."

"Alright." Jinbao leaped onto her shoulder, waving his paw at the spirits.

See you tomorrow, big lights.

Discovering a secret weapon, Zhouzhou was in high spirits, skipping all the way back.

At the entrance, she saw Ye Lingfeng returning with several people.

She recognized three of them: Qi Hua, Ma Yong, and Luo Jin, all group leaders.

Judging by their sweaty appearance, they had just finished a secret training session.

Zhouzhou huffed, puffing out her little chest, tucking her chubby paws behind her back, and strutted inside on her short legs.

Who doesn't have a secret weapon?

She had one too!
