Chapter 477 The beehive has arrived, Qiqi, get it together!
Back to the Lingzhu Inn, the main building of the third floor is still frozen by the ice, looking at this posture, the current temperature is absolutely impossible to melt, so I have to wait for the spring of the next year.
After a whole day of cleaning up in the backyard, the state is far better than Hua Duxiu imagined.
Seeing a lot of onlookers pointing at the Lingzhu Inn on the street, there were many discussions, Hua Duxiu hurriedly pulled Ding Qiqi into the backyard.
I met the shopkeeper in front of him, and the shopkeeper led a few guys to work all day, and at this time he leaned on the door of the room to smoke and rest silently, looking tired.
Hua Duxiu smiled and said, "Brother, are you tired today?"
Shopkeeper Cha rolled his eyes, spit out a puff of white smoke and said, "Naturally, he is not as chic as a playboy." ”
Hua Duxiu looked left and right and asked, "Where will we stay at night?"
The shopkeeper pointed in a direction angrily: "The room against the outer wall." If you're still fighting tonight, I highly recommend jumping out the window and going outside. The inn has frozen into ice lumps, and if you tear down the backyard, we'll all have to sleep on the street tomorrow. ”
Hua Duxiu smiled awkwardly: "Don't worry, this time I have a number, if there are still people who don't know each other and come to find trouble, I will strike first, and rush out directly to beat them away." ”
The shopkeeper was too lazy to say, "Anyway, you just have to know it in your heart." ”
Hua Duxiu asked again: "Brother, I asked you for something in the morning, I don't know ......"
The shopkeeper said: "You said that the beehives were bought, and it took a lot of effort to find a beekeeper." ”
Hua Duxiu was overjoyed and asked, "Yes, that's great! Where did the beehives go?"
The shopkeeper said, "In your room, it's too cold outside, and if you let it go for a day, all the bees will freeze to death." ”
Hua Duxiu thanked for a while, and seeing that the shopkeeper had no intention of chatting, he quickly pulled Ding Qiqi back to the room.
Not to mention, the backyard room space is much larger than the upstairs, of course, the room furnishings, decoration, etc. are also much worse, after all, the rooms here are for the staff's own use, there is no need to get it according to the room standards.
Of course, Hua Duxiu doesn't care about these little things, if he puts it in normal times, food, clothing, housing and transportation, he will be very careful and particular about everything, but now, this room is not exactly for sleeping, but for waiting for the enemy, and a place to practice swordsmanship.
It's better to keep it simple, especially if there's plenty of space.
Hua Duxiu instructed his men to light the stove and add a few pieces of charcoal, and after a while, the temperature in the room was getting higher and higher, Hua Duxiu took out a delicate small copper stove from his back like a trick, winked at Ding Qiqi, and put the copper stove on the beehives.
The two took off their cotton clothes and threw them on the bed, Ding Qiqi moved his wrist and asked, "Hey, when did you buy the incense burner?"
Hua Duxiu held the little red sword, shook the sword flower lightly, and said with a smile: "Although sword practice is a sacred thing, it is not enough to burn incense and bathe." I borrowed the incense burner from the shopkeeper and returned it to him when I was finished. ”
"Qiqi, do you know why the sword technique I created is called the 'Attracting Bees and Butterflies Sword Technique'?"
Ding Qiqi said: "You said, didn't you just use a sword to sting bees and butterflies?"
Hua Duxiu shook his head and said solemnly: "No, no, that's a narrow statement." Seriously, it is a dreamlike body to dance with bees and butterflies among the flowers. ”
Ding Qiqi: "......"
Hua Duxiu said: "Although the bee is small, it is also life, how can I be such a person who loves nature and cares for small animals, how can I kill and injure a large number of innocent little lives in order to practice the sword for myself? ”
Ding Qiqi asked, "Then what if you don't practice well?" Hua Duxiu shrugged: "Then it is inevitable that a few will be killed." ”
Ding Qiqi said angrily: "Isn't it equivalent to talking nonsense for half a day!"
Hua Duxiu smiled: "Okay, it's warm in the house, close the doors and windows, let's start." ”
Ding Qiqi locked the doors and windows as he said, stood aside with a dragon-patterned sword, and watched Hua Duxiu demonstrate the "Recruiting Bees and Butterflies Sword Technique".
Hua Duxiu lit a piece of sandalwood, gently inserted it into the brass incense burner, pretended to bow down, and put the incense burner under the beehive.
He took off the insulating mat from the beehive and set it aside, then slowly retreated to the middle of the room and stood still, silently waiting for the bees to come out.
The green smoke of sandalwood rose faintly, and many of it gradually seeped into the cracks of the beehive.
After a while, some small black spots crawled out of the lid of the beehive, which were bees that had been stimulated by incense and burrowed out of the bellows.
Hua Duxiu breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it can be smoked out, I'm afraid that the bees will fall asleep in the winter, if there is no bee swordsmanship, you can't practice, it's difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, you can't wait for the spring to teach Qiqi to make a sword, right?
It's okay, it's okay.
After waiting for a while, bees flew out of the hive one after another.
Unfortunately, it's winter, and normally bees enter a special state similar to hibernation, and are reluctant to fly out of the hive. Fortunately, the room was very warm, and there was incense underneath, and the bees finally staggered and flew outside, flying around the room.
It's like getting drunk en masse.
Hua Duxiu coughed lightly and said, "Remember, it's best not to practice with murderous intent when practicing swords, otherwise the murderous aura will be too heavy, and the bees will attack you in turn." ”
"When the time comes, you will be stung all over your head, and you will just wait and cry. ”
Ding Qiqi snorted lightly: "Just kidding, how could I Ding Qiqi be stung by a bee?"
Seeing that the time was almost up, Hua Duxiu shook the little red sword in his hand, and his eyes began to become sharp.
"The purpose of the sword is not to kill the bees, but to learn how to control precision and power in extreme moments. If you can't put it away freely, you can move as you like, even if you have a strong power, you can't win in the face of top masters. ”
Hua Duxiu explained while slowly dancing among the bees.
Yes, he seems to be playing with a sword, but he is actually dancing, but there is no routine in his dancing posture, but it looks like he has a natural feeling of high mountains and flowing water, high sky and clouds.
Ding Qiqi listened carefully while watching the flower show dance.
If you look closely, you will find that even if the bees in the room have flown quite densely, every time the little red sword in his hand dances, he will never touch any bees, but the blade of the sword will definitely point at a certain bee, and even touch it lightly with the tip of the sword.
And this bee can't be avoided at all.
Is this dancing?
Ding Qiqi didn't know, she just felt that Hua Duxiu at the moment seemed to be simply writhing around in the bee colony, like a neuropathy, but if she looked at it seriously, there was a special taste in it.
As for what it tasted like, Ding Qiqi couldn't figure it out for a while, but Xiaohua's kindness to her was absolutely unreserved, and since she promised to teach Qiqi to practice swords, she would definitely come up with the most pressing things at the bottom of the box to teach.
Ding Qiqi emptied his distracting thoughts and just looked at it seriously.
Time passed moment by moment, and the more real Ding Qiqi looked, the more creepy he felt.
Where is this dancing, this is clearly practicing one of the weirdest swordsmanship!
Xiaohua didn't lie, this is really a kind of swordsmanship!
Hua Duxiu danced, and inadvertently bloomed a little bit of sword intent, Ding Qiqi only felt that he was in the middle of the mountains, with crisp and pleasant birdsong in his ears, and pleasant flowers and plants in spring beside him, cloudless, blue sky, Hua Duxiu was the most beautiful dancer in this world.
And those bees that fly like headless flies seem to have become partners who dance with him, and even their flying tracks are inexplicably graceful.
Ding Qiqi was stunned.
Soon, the sandalwood burned out, Hua Duxiu put away his sword and stood still, and the flying bees flew in a mess, and returned to the beehive one after another to get in.
The room was back to what it was not so long ago.
Ding Qiqi rubbed his eyes, saw Hua Duxiu looking at himself with a smile, and returned with a big smile. Hua Duxiu asked:
"How's that, do you understand?"
Ding Qiqi scratched his head: "I seem to understand something, but I don't seem to understand ......"
Hua Duxiu said: "Don't worry, sword training is not achieved overnight, and you don't have any foundation yourself, so it is impossible to improve quickly in a short period of time." ”
"You can see a little bit of meaning just now, you're already very talented, I can see something in your eyes, you're smarter than most people. ”
Ding Qiqi recalled the strange feeling just now, and asked, "Then you say, is it necessary for me to learn a set of introductory swordsmanship from scratch? You know so many exquisite sword moves, why don't you pick one that suits me and teach me?"
Hua Duxiu shook his head: "The world of swords is like a vast ocean, practicing swords is like driving a boat floating on the sea, the sea is boundless, and the swordsmanship is endless. ”
Ding Qiqi was a little unhappy: "Fart, stinky little flower, how old are you? Seeing that you are so good at swordsmanship now, have you started practicing swords since you were born?"
Hua Duxiu said: "That's not true. ”
Ding Qiqi said: "That's right, if you can do it, I can do it too, and the masters and uncles praise me for learning everything at a point, you can achieve the current level in a few years, and I will definitely be able to!"
Hua Duxiu shrugged: "How many years? Not so fast." Although I wasn't born to practice swordsmanship, I started to learn Hua's swordsmanship from my father at the age of five, and when I was fourteen years old, I was sent to the Demon Stream Mansion by my father, and when I was seventeen years old, I went to Mobei Jizong, do you think I got to this level in a few years?"
Hua Duxiu originally wanted to say that the most important thing was to retreat a few times, and relying on the cooperation of Xiao Tiantian in the supernatural world, he could have the realm where ghosts and gods are difficult to distinguish now.
It's just that it's inconvenient to talk about this matter casually, after all, in the city of Bailong County, a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands, if there are any high-ranking people staring at him in the dark, wouldn't he listen to all the secrets?
Hearing Hua Duxiu say that he started practicing swords at the age of five, and it has been thirteen years since he pinched his fingers, Ding Qiqi was a little deflated.
Hua Duxiu patted Ding Qiqi on the shoulder: "Qiqi, if I start learning the Five Elements Control Technique from you now, do you think I can reach your current realm in a few years?"
Ding Qiqi's eyes lit up, and he said, "It's up to you, I'm 'manipulating' the Dacheng realm, the youngest person in the history of Hongmen to reach this realm, your words...... I'm afraid it's no drama in 20 years!"
Hua Duxiu said: "Look, even you said that I can't reach your current realm in 20 years, but you want to reach my current realm in 35 years, is it possible?"
Ding Qiqi was deflated again: "Then what else do I have to learn...... Alas. ”
Hua Duxiu smiled: "I didn't say that you should reach my current level. I mean, you can grasp some of the essence of using a sword, and then combine it with your Five Elements Control Technique, and you can attack from a distance and defend closely, which is the right direction of martial arts. ”
Ding Qiqi thought for a while and said, "Okay." And now, should I start learning how to sting bees?"
