Chapter 32: Acid
"I heard that the epiphany in the backyard has bloomed recently, and it must be beautiful, so I came and have a look." Xiao Ziyan is clearly talking nonsense.
"Okay." Xiao Qizhen smiled.
Chunli and Xiao Qizhen came out, Xiao Qizhen said: "I've been cracking the chess game recently, and there is an endgame that is very interesting, are you interested in playing with me?" In fact, Ji Chunli is not interested at all, but Xiao Qizhen has helped him several times, so Ji Chunli can't refuse.
Oh, my God!
It's a terrible feeling to be pinched by someone's little tail. All the secrets of Chunli were known by Xiao Qizhen, and Chunli was even more taboo.
"I heard that you are playing chess with the third prince, who will be drawn as a pig if you lose?" Ji Chunli couldn't help laughing, the third prince Xiao Ziyan was so gloomy, she didn't dare to imagine what Xiao Ziyan's face was like after being painted as a pig.
"What, you want to play with this?" Xiao Qizhen shook his sleeves, and something similar to a brush fell into it.
The reason why it is similar is because the two ends of the thing are round, and then Xiao Qizhen took out a thumb-sized bamboo tube from his sleeve and shook it.
Unscrewed it and saw that it was black ink, and it also exuded a fragrance of osmanthus, Ji Chunli was shocked, Xiao Qizhen's handiwork was very powerful, the one that was cylindrical at both ends was indeed a brush, and he made a perfect cap to protect the tip of the brush inside.
Ji Chunli held the brush and ink cartridge and looked at it, and couldn't help laughing, "What you can do is so good, only by being a prince can you have time to do this, if you really be a poor person with quail clothes, you still have to find a way to support your family every day, where is the leisure to study this?" ”
"If I really become a pawn of a peddler, I am the only one in my family, how much food is enough? I have even more free time. Xiao Qizhen said.
Hearing this, Ji Chunli didn't know what to say, "But if I meet a suitable one, I will consider being with him." Hearing this, Ji Chunli smiled.
The endgame was quickly laid out, and when Ji Chunli saw it, his head suddenly buzzed! Oh, my God! What kind of endgame is this, this is the "Twenty-Eight Methods of Random Chess" that my mother often plays.
Chunli's mother is from the south of the Yangtze River, she has been playing chess with Chunli's grandfather since she was a child, and she can play against overage people since she was three years old, and she is already very powerful at the age of eight or nine, and then her mother married her father, so she doesn't play chess much.
But Ji Chunli really didn't expect that the "endgame" in Xiao Qizhen's mouth was actually taught by Ji Chunli's mother a long time ago, and the so-called endgame in front of him was only one of the "Twenty-eight Methods of Random Chess", and the later advanced ones were even more powerful, this was just an introduction.
"What, you've seen this?" Xiao Qizhen noticed that Ji Chunli's eyes were very strange, and asked.
Chunli couldn't cry or laugh, but she couldn't pretend that she could do anything, she could only shake her head: "You can give it a try, but if the second prince also loses, if there is an extra pig on your face, will the emperor kill my head?" ”
"I have a lot of pigs on my face, I like to bet with eunuchs and maids every day, even my father knows that I am a profligate person, how can my father kill your head? Besides, Chunli. Xiao Qizhen smiled evilly, and a kind of happiness was overflowing in peach blossom eyes: "You and I are friends, I still need you." ”
"It's fine."
Ji Chunli could only pretend that she didn't understand at all, she was extremely puzzled, staring at the black and white who could lie on the chessboard, it was completely a layman's move, "You go this way, the slave will go this way." ”
"If you go this way, the slave will come the other way."
"You go over there, and the slave and maid will come over here." But a quarter of an hour later, Ji Chunli died of Xiao Qizhen, Xiao Qizhen looked at the sunspot he had eaten, and then looked at Ji Chunli who seemed to be scratching his ears and cheeks on the other side, but was actually very calm.
"Chunli, you're so amazing."
"Did I win?" Ji Chunli obviously hadn't reacted yet.
"If you win, let's draw a pig for this king." Xiao Qizhen dipped the brush and handed it to Ji Chunli, although Ji Chunli held the brush, he never dared to draw a pig on the prince's face, but drew one on his own face.
In this way, Xiao Qizhen was unhappy, "You pig is not good, you should draw a curly tail, a pig without a tail is not good-looking." Xiao Qizhen said while adding a curly-haired tail to Ji Chunli's buttocks.
He is a person who is willing to gamble and lose, and at this moment he asked Ji Chunli to draw a pig for himself, Chunli could only do so, everything was done, Xiao Qizhen held a brush and drew a tail on his pig's buttocks.
After playing for a while, it was already quiet in the dead of night, and Ji Chunli retired.
After getting away from Xiao Qizhen's sight, Chunli stepped to the lake to clean his face, reached out and washed off the pigs on his cheeks, and the ripples on the water surface had just calmed down, and Chunli saw the reflection of the water surface.
"Ahh Chunli looked back and realized that it was Xiao Qiyu who arrived, when did he come, could it be that he was following him?
"Shizi!"
"Can you draw pigs? Will you be obedient? Xiao Qiyu's tone was not good at all, so he almost didn't scold Chunli with a ring ruler, Chunli also knew that he had played a little too much tonight, but he didn't know where to start if he wanted to explain.
"From today onwards, this king will teach you martial arts."
"At this moment?" Ji Chunli was still about to go back, Xiao Qiyu nodded, "Start with the basics, let's take a horse step." Xiao Qiyu was obviously very angry, and showed it to Ji Chunli, Ji Chunli didn't dare not learn, to be honest, even if Xiao Qiyu asked Ji Chunli to learn to call Ji Chunli a dog, he didn't dare to disobey.
"That's not a horse step, that's a lunge!" Xiao Qiyu immediately corrected that Ji Chunli was a layman, he only saw that others had flower embroidered legs but didn't know that there were also a lot of doorways in the flower group embroidered legs, Xiao Qiyu saw that Ji Chunli had poor imitation ability, and he hated iron a little
Ji Chunli suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and before he could react, he saw that the head of a snake was shaking in front of his eyes, Chunli was the most afraid of snakes, and at this moment the six gods had no master, "Ah, Shizi, don't intimidate Chunli, Chunli just learn hard." ”
"Now that you know how to study?" Xiao Qiyu's voice was cold, as if a hurricane had swept through Ji Chunli's ear piercing.
This night Ji Chunli had a nightmare, even the dream was a poisonous snake harassing herself, she didn't understand Xiao Qiyu at all, when he was cold, he could freeze the surrounding mountains, rivers and plants, but when he was childish, it was simply annoying.
Because of last night's punishment, Ji Chunli alienated Xiao Qizhen from the second day, even if he accidentally encountered it in the courtyard, he just casually saluted and ran.
Xiao Qizhen is so strange.
Another day passed, and that night Ji Chunli went to see Xiao Qiyu, Xiao Qiyu's courtyard had some more weapons, what swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks were there, displayed on the weapon rack, it looked shining, Xiao Qiyu stood in front of the weapon rack.
"Slave and maid, let's learn a simple one." Ji Chunli thought that Xiao Qiyu threw herself a multiple-choice question, but Xiao Qiyu had no expression at all.
Shen Ji next to Ji Chunli coughed, breaking the embarrassment, "Chunli, you have to learn all the eighteen weapons, and you have to master them all in a year." When Ji Chunli heard this, she tilted Xiao Qiyu, where is this indicator that she Ji Chunli, a layman in martial arts, can master?
"I can't do it!" Ji Chunli said.
"Hands!" Xiao Qiyu was a little annoyed.
Ji Chunli said: "I can't do it, I can't do it if you break my hand." Ji Chunli looked at Xiao Qiyu pitifully, Xiao Qiyu held the ring ruler and was about to start, but found that Ji Chunli was staring at him defiantly, as if he was not afraid at all.
"You don't have a choice." Xiao Qiyu said indifferently: "I still have plans for your future, and this plan will start with Wu, do you know?" ”
Ji Chunli also knew that she had a long way to go, she looked at her shoulder, and what was picked up on her immature shoulder was the life of her mother and sister, her own future, her father's blood feud, and the glory and reputation of the family.
None of this allowed her to back down.
"I see." Ji Chunli has never promised anyone anything, but once Chunli agrees, she will do her best, she is a person who starts and finishes well.
"Tonight, let's start with the basics." Xiao Qiyu pointed at Shen Ji, "Let Shen Ji start teaching you, this king will wait and see what happens, this will be a little bit wrong, don't blame this king for being polite." ”
