Chapter 292: Old treacherous and cunning

Except for Li Mu, all of you here are martial artists. Hearing Cheng Yanjin talk about this, Dugu Jiu was a little unconvinced, and said: "Uncle Cheng's words are biased, although the internal skills are difficult to practice, but the benefits of practicing are great. As the saying goes, people don't rely on their muscles and bones as their ability. However, if the internal strength is cultivated at home, it can be done in the opposite way. Ordinary martial artists, when they are over forty years old, their strength is becoming more and more decaying, and whether they can pick up a sword is a question of whether they can pick up a sword when they are over forty years old. But after cultivating internal strength, even if you are too old, you can still fight. ”

Dugu Jiu's father, Dugu Xiude, and Cheng Yanjin's peers have a relationship, and this 'uncle' is also a matter of course. Cheng Yanjin was refuted, but he was not angry, he looked at Dugu Jiu, and said with a smile: "That virtuous nephew, have you practiced internal skills?" ”

"Uh......" Dugu Jiu choked up and said, "No." ”

"Still!" Cheng bit the gold stall and said, "You only say it's good, but you don't practice it, is it convincing?" ”

Dugu Jiu argued: "There is a reason why I don't practice, I like swordsmanship, swordsmanship pays attention to the three words 'fast, accurate and ruthless', the faster the move, the more tricky the move, and the greater the victory." This has nothing to do with internal strength, so I don't practice. ”

Cheng Yanjin smiled and said, "It's not that it's not unmatched, but it's unnecessary." It is undeniable that any move is blessed with internal strength. But the difference is whether it is necessary or not. This is like cutting people, with the blessing of internal strength, cutting the stomach is one knife to death, without the blessing of internal strength, cutting the stomach has to be killed twice. However, if you cut your neck, you will die with a knife if you have no internal strength. In this case, instead of practicing the internal skills that I don't know if I can achieve, it is better to practice the quasi-"

As he spoke, Cheng Biting Jin glanced at Li Chongyi, who was bored and eating meat, and was indifferent to the content of the chat, and said: "If you are like this stupid big man, you are born with divine power." Then there is no need for any internal strength, ordinary people, even if they have practiced internal strength for eighty years, can they have his strength? His axe, as long as it touches it, it will be killed by a knife wherever it is cut, whether there is internal strength or not, and what is the difference? ”

He looked at Dugu Jiu again and said: "The virtuous nephew's sentence 'people don't take their muscles and bones as their ability' is right, in my opinion, the internal strength is just to offset the loss of strength in old age, if you really want to say that it has an effect, in addition to offsetting, there is also growth, unless this person is long-lived and 100 years old, maybe it can be done." Otherwise, it's not much use, besides, who is still dancing with knives and guns in their seventies and eighties, and it's a bit miserable, right? ”

Dugu Jiu was silent, although he didn't practice internal skills, but he saw Sun Simiao's methods today, and he longed for internal skills. He is a martial arts idiot, as long as he can improve himself, he is willing to try anything. For example, the Dugu family, whose ancestors were emperors, has more than one method of cultivating internal strength hidden in the family, if he wants to practice internal strength, he can do it at any time, just now, he did have this idea.

But the idea only came to mind for a moment, and he rejected it. He still cares more about swordsmanship than internal strength. In terms of swordsmanship, he always felt that his realm still needed to be improved, and before swordsmanship went further, he couldn't waste time on ethereal internal skills.

Li Mu listened to it for a long time, and probably understood the meaning. This is like the two sword qi sects of the Huashan faction in "Smiling Proud Jianghu" that he watched before. The Sword Sect believes that the key point of the Huashan School's martial arts is the "sword", and the swordsmanship is a success, even if the internal strength is mediocre, it can defeat the enemy. Therefore, the kung fu of the Huashan Sword Sect is easy to achieve quickly, and the effect is extremely fast. According to Feng Qingyang, a character in the play, the kung fu of the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect have each practiced for ten years, and it must be the Sword Sect that has the upper hand, each practicing for twenty years, and each is good at winning, and it is difficult to distinguish between the top and the bottom. Twenty years later, Qi Zong's kung fu gradually became stronger and stronger. By the time he reached the age of thirty, the Sword Sect's kung fu would no longer be able to look at the Qi Sect's back.

When "The Legend of the Tang Dynasty Heroes" was set, a lot of Jin Yong's elements were referenced. For the setting of internal strength, it is also roughly the same. Because the internal strength is rare, the explosion rate is extremely low. Therefore, for the sake of balance, the internal power is set to the situation of 'pit dad in the early stage, imba in the later stage'. To put it bluntly, this is for RMB players. If you want to become the hegemon in the server, you can't do it without superior internal skills. And practicing this internal skill requires a huge amount of resource investment. The game is definitely not able to get so many resources, you have to use money to buy, so it is in line with the company's slogan: create happiness with heart, no money to play JJ.

Thinking of this, Li Mu had already made a decision in his heart. This internal skill, he wants to practice!

What is the biggest drawback of internal strength? It takes time and has the potential to fail. The so-called failure is that the meridians cannot be connected. But he doesn't have this kind of worry now, he has eaten Dayan Dan, and the meridians have been opened. Even Sun Simiao said that he is now like an empty tank, which can be filled with water. Wouldn't it be a fool to get twice the result with half the effort, and if you don't practice this?

Li Mu put away the "Taixuan Sutra", Cheng Yanjin saw it, and couldn't help but say: "Virtuous nephew, if you really want to practice martial arts, you will come to my house tomorrow." The old man made an exception and asked you to choose from the old man's collection, let me tell you, the moves of the masters of our Datang Dynasty are only what you don't know, and there is nothing that I don't have in my house, so keep your eyes open! ”

After speaking, Cheng Yanjin didn't forget to add a sentence, and said: "This is also the relationship between the two of us, how could I be so generous if I changed others?" ”

Li Mu smiled and said, "I remember, when Uncle Cheng came over the wall and quarreled with his father-in-law, he mentioned this matter. ”

"What do you mention him!" Cheng Yanjin couldn't hold his face a little anymore, and said: "Your father-in-law is the most hypocritical. I don't like him, Li Mu, the old man really doesn't understand what you think, what does it mean to recognize him as a father-in-law, if you are willing to recognize me as a father-in-law, the old man will give you the family business. As long as you nod your head, it will be settled tomorrow, will it be closed? ”

Li Mu didn't know what Cheng Yanjin thought, as long as he called him his father-in-law. Whatever you do in the future, the Cheng family will be indispensable. Compared with the Sancheng family business, the Cheng family only makes money and does not lose money. This demon king of the mixed world seems to be rude, but in fact, he is coarse and fine, and if you think about it carefully, no one can take advantage of him.

Li Mu said with a smile: "Uncle Cheng said that he was joking, his father-in-law is his father-in-law, how can he change his court?" If even the father-in-law can be changed casually, wouldn't I, Li Mu, also be a slave with three surnames? No, you can't. The Cheng family's property should be left to your son, the little nephew is blessed. ”

"Them?" Cheng bit the golden sniff, took a sullen sip of wine, and sighed: "Virtuous nephew, are you willing to beg you for nothing?" Isn't that impossible? The old man has a lot of sons, there are six, but none of these six boys have brains. Not to mention reading, even literacy...... They don't recognize a few, you say that this huge family business, when the old man is gone, won't it be defeated? ”

Therefore, the old man thought that when the old man could still move, he would save more for them. The rest is their own creation. ”

After speaking, he sighed again, Li Mu looked at him like this, and he didn't know how to comfort him. Cheng Biting Jin was in front of him, although he mostly looked like a scoundrel, but he believed these words. The six sons of the Cheng family, Li Mu has all seen them. perfectly inherited Cheng Bitingjin's rough side, and the careful side, but he didn't inherit it at all, and it is no wonder that Cheng Biting Jin has such worries.

After thinking about it, Li Mu said: "The little nephew came to Chang'an since he was beaten, and he was taken care of by Uncle Cheng. If there really is such a day, the little nephew can help, and he will not look at it. ”

"Really?" Cheng Biting Jin's intoxicated eyes revealed a hint of cunning, and when Li Mu saw it, he secretly scolded himself for being too tender, and fell for this old fox again. Do you have such a thing, even use your own sympathy!

Cheng Biting Jin laughed, stood up, and said, "With the words of the virtuous nephew, the old man is much more relieved." Okay, it's not early, the door is about to close, the old man will go back, and when your charter is finished, the old man will come again! ”

Li Mu hurriedly said: "Uncle Cheng doesn't use it, the little nephew is looking for you." ”

"It's good!"

This is all inconsequential matter, Cheng Yanjin didn't care, and signaled that Li Mu didn't have to send it off. But Li Mu couldn't send it, he sent it to the door, and watched Cheng Yanjin's car go away before turning around and entering the door.

It was already dark, and in half an hour, the door was closed. But Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien hadn't come back yet, Li Mu was a little worried, and asked, "Did Mrs. and Second Aunt Tai come back in the afternoon?" ”

Zhao Youcai hurriedly said: "No, the little one has been in the gatehouse, and I haven't seen anyone." Maybe it is from the back door to the back house, Hou Ye might as well ask Xiaozhu. ”

Li Mu called Xiaozhu again, and Xiaozhu also said that no one had ever returned.

Li Mu was a little more worried, and was about to go out to look for it, but Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien came back. Li Muhu stood at the door with a face, watched the two get out of the carriage, snorted angrily, turned around and left.

Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien glanced at each other, and secretly said in their hearts, Husband is angry. Regardless of fatigue, he hurriedly chased into the house.

"Husband, husband......" Li Mu walked extremely fast, Bai Qiaoqiao had to trot, she was tired for a day, ran a few steps and was out of breath, and finally caught up with Li Mu, stopped in front of him, and said, "Why is Husband angry?" ”

"Why am I angry?" Li Mu looked speechless and asked the sky, deliberately did not look at Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien, looked up at Fang Liang, to show his anger, and said, "What time is this?" Well? You two just came back? Ben Hou returned to the mansion, and no one was seen, do you say that you two still have a bit of a way to be wives? It's all that shop, and it'll be closed tomorrow! ”

"Husband, ......" Bai Qiaoqiao heard that Li Mu was going to close the shop, tears filled her eyes, she looked at Li Mu pitifully, and begged: "Husband, I know it's wrong, I shouldn't have gone home so late, but isn't it busy today, just opened, one thing may not delay much work, but I can't stand all kinds of things piled up together, and I forget the hour when I get busy, husband, don't be angry, okay, the store has just opened, and it can't be closed like this." ”

Li Zhien also whispered to help: "Yes, master, you can't close ......"

"Can't?" Li Mu was originally tempted, but seeing that Bai Qiaoqiao's voice was so weak, he deliberately said loudly: "What can't you!" Why not? opened a broken shop, Lao Tzu didn't even have a quilt to cover, how would he live? Not! It's not open! ”

"Husband......

Bai Qiaoqiao was about to beg softly, and suddenly a voice came in from outside the door: "What is he doing?" Afraid of what he will do? ”

Li Mu turned around and saw Zhang Tianai standing at the door, about to be angry again, when he suddenly saw her holding a whip in her hand, swallowed and spit, chose tactics to avoid, and said, "You, why are you here?" ”

"I'm your fourth aunt, and this is also my home, why can't I come?" Zhang Tianai walked into the house, protected Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien behind him, looked at Li Mu and said, "If you have something to say to me, don't bully Qiaoqiao." What temper do you have to have? Qiaoqiao is tired and tired of living outside to earn money, and you are idle all day long and have fun at home. When you get home, you lose your temper, why are you? ”

Li Mu stiffened his neck and said: "Where am I idle, how busy I am this day, I ......" Li Mu suddenly couldn't make a sound, and he didn't remember what he did today.

Zhang Tianai snorted and said, "Just now I came in from the front gate and watched your two brothers barbecue, this is what you are busy with?" ”

Li Mu simply broke the jar and said, "No one cooks, don't barbecue and starve to death?" Anyway, this is not good, so before the store opened, I made a rule that it would be open for two hours a day, why didn't I go home so late? It's you who don't keep your word first, and you can't blame me for cheating. ”

Bai Qiaoqiao couldn't help but say: "Husband, people can't be busy......"

"If you're too busy, you can recruit people!" Li Mu glared and said: "Tomorrow I will go to Datang Daily to publish a recruitment notice, I need to recruit two, in short, I can't let my wife fall into this broken shop all day long, I can't stand it!" When I returned to the house, I couldn't see my wife, it was like I had no soul, I couldn't live this day! ”

Li Mu said it carefully, but the third daughter heard the meaning. made such a big turn, this is sympathetic to Madame. Bai Qiaoqiao was ashamed, and Zhang Tianai and Li Zhien were a little surprised. is busy working in the store, but the three of them are busy working together, why do you feel sorry for only one, it's too unfair.

Just as he was about to play a little trick, Li Mu suddenly put on a smiling face, rubbed his hands and said, "The three ladies are tired, right?" Today I went to Dr. Sun Shen, and specially learned a set of massage methods, why don't we take a bath together, and I can help you press it? ”

"Ignore you, there's no seriousness anymore." Bai Qiaoqiao glanced at Li Mu, took Li Zhien's hand, and said, "Husband, we haven't eaten dinner yet, let's go eat something first, and I'll talk to you later." ”

Zhang Tianai shook the whip in his hand and followed.

Li Mu was bored, so he had to go back to the front yard and accompany Dugu Jiu and Li Chongyi to continue the barbecue.

Dugu Jiu's alcohol consumption was not good, he was already a little confused, he kept yawning, but he was embarrassed to leave Li Chongyi alone, and when he saw Li Mu coming, he could be regarded as a replacement, so he stood up and went back to his room to sleep.

Only Li Mu and Li Chongyi were left, and the two of them raised their wine bowls and touched them, and each took a sip.

"How's the recruitment?"
