Wang Lingzhi is very yearning for the martial arts that Shen Xi said.

Shen Xi firmly grasped Wang Lingzhi's mentality, and gave the martial arts to the next level, such as leg pressing, vertical fork, bending waist, shoulder pressing and other basic martial arts movements set as the fourth level, and gradually deepened, the highest is the "White Crane Drying Wings", "Black Tiger Stealing Heart" and other moves just now, in order to make Wang Lingzhi feel that there is no end to learning, and he can continue to provide himself with paper and pen.

Shen Xi taught Wang Lingzhi several tricks on the spot, including leg skills, waist skills and shoulder skills, which were all basic skills that Shen Xi learned when he participated in the martial arts club in college. After a while, when Wang Lingzhi finished learning, Shen Xi was ready to teach him to practice Zama step and standing on plum blossom piles, which, in Shen Xi's words, were the basis for acquiring superior martial arts.

Wang Lingzhi saw that Shen Xi was playing well, so he also drew a gourd and followed the comparison.

After practicing so-so twice, Shen Xi waved his hand: "It's almost time, you go back to logistics and practice, and tomorrow I will teach you how to use these moves in actual combat." However, you can bring some rice paper and pen and ink tomorrow, so that I can write down the martial arts secrets for you. ”

"Senior brother, do you really have martial arts cheats? Is it true that if you learn it, you can defeat one against a hundred? "The royal tomb is leisurely fascinated.

Shen Xi smiled faintly: "Even if you have martial arts cheats, whether you can learn it or not depends on your creation!" The master leads the door to practice in the individual, and the people in the martial arts practice three times in winter and three times in summer, and they must study hard to make a difference...... By the way, it's better to be literate, otherwise even if I dictate the cheats to you, can you understand it? ”

Wang Lingzhi scratched his head: "This ...... Still want to read? ”

Shen Xi said: "It doesn't matter if you read or not, if you have words that you don't know or don't understand, I can teach you." ”

Wang Lingzhi nodded in agreement.

But he is also a little clever, and muttered in his heart: "This kid is so poor when he sees that his family is tinkling, where can he have the money to study?" I'll give him a pen and paper tomorrow to see if he can write...... If he can write it, it means that he has another chance, maybe he really has the guidance of a famous teacher, and the martial arts cheats must be true. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Lingzhi learned Shen Xi to clasp his fists and salute, and then took his bamboo stick and ran away.

At dinner in the evening, Shen Mingjun asked people to bring a message and said that he would not return home until later. There were only Zhou, Shen Xi, and Lin Dai at the dinner table, Lin Dai looked at Zhou, and stopped talking, Zhou quickly noticed something wrong and asked, "Dai'er, do you have something on your mind?" ”

Lin Dai glanced at Shen Xi and was about to make a small report, but was stepped on by Shen Xi under the table. Shen Xi preemptively said: "Mother, the taste of the dishes made today is a little bland, and it may not be very suitable for Dai'er's appetite, or ...... Mother go add some salt? ”

Although it was troublesome, Zhou, who felt sorry for his son and daughter-in-law, still stood up and complained: "You two little ancestors are really not good to serve." If you are in Peach Blossom Village, you can't eat an extra grain of salt...... Fortunately, now we are alone, and I only came back in the morning from the market to buy some salt. ”

Waiting for Zhou to leave with the green vegetables, Shen Xi pointed at Lin Dai and threatened: "Don't talk nonsense, otherwise I won't help you fight the bad guys in the future." ”

"Hmph."

Lin Dai turned her head sideways and snorted, quite disapproving, but in the end, she didn't tell the Zhou family about Wang Lingzhi.

The next morning, Wang Lingzhi had already come over to learn martial arts, carrying a thick stack of rice paper in his arms, holding pen and ink in his hand, the ink was the best Hui ink, very rare. It seems that the Wang family attaches great importance to the education of the children in the clan, and one or two can be known from the equipment of the four treasures of the study.

"Senior brother, I brought the things, didn't you say that you would write the martial arts cheats to me? I'll first see how you engrave the martial arts cheats. ”

Wang Lingzhi deliberately tried it, and Shen Xi noticed it after a little aftertaste.

But Shen Xi looked at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone sent by Wang Lingzhi and was very satisfied.

With these papers, Shen Xi's money-making plan was half achieved by simply pressing it into thick paper that could be engraved with calligraphy and painting with a special process. When the calligraphy and painting are finished, they have to be old, and when the time comes, those materials such as lime and charcoal that are lacking can be found by Wang Lingzhi.

Shen Xi nodded: "Okay, I'll write a few tricks for you first, I'm afraid that there are some words you don't know." ”

Afterwards, Shen Xi and Wang Lingzhi walked out of the courtyard and came to the grove outside the fence of the back garden of the Wang family...... The reason why he came to such a secret place was that Shen Xi was afraid that his mother Zhou would see it, or that Lin Dai would sue him if he found out and destroy his fortune plan.

Next to the rockery in the middle of the grove, Shen Xi spread rice paper on a bluestone slab and let Wang Lingzhi study ink.

Wang Lingzhi rarely studied ink when he wrote on weekdays, and he didn't mix the ink when his hands were black.

"Stupid, look at me." Shen Xi got water from the broken rubble urn next to the bluestone slab, and started the ink with his own hands, just looking at the movements was very standardized.

Shen Xi finished the ink, dipped the pen in ink, and wrote it on the rice paper.

Wang Lingzhi read along: "The world is martial...... What, nothing is nothing, nothing is fast...... What's the word behind? ”

Shen Xi said angrily: "The world's martial arts, only strong and unbroken, only fast and unbroken, I don't even know such simple words, how can I learn superior martial arts?" When you go back, remember to learn a few more words from Mr., so that you can better study the secrets of martial arts when you come back. ”

Wang Lingzhi muttered: "No wonder my father and Mr. let me study, it turns out that I can only learn good martial arts if I can read and write." ”

Shen Xi shook his head and smiled, studying is to learn superior martial arts, and Wang Lingzhi's logic is really weird. However, this is exactly what Shen Xi needs, it is best to make Wang Lingzhi completely obsessed with martial arts, so that Wang Lingzhi can follow his instructions.

Shen Xi's engraved "Martial Arts Cheats" has not many words, all of which Shen Xi has read in martial arts novels before, and he deliberately writes the words crookedly, otherwise it will make people wonder how he can write beautiful and good words as a childish man whose fetal hair has not yet faded.

"I'll write so much today, this is a superior martial arts method, you have to memorize it...... The tricks I teach you are actual combat use, and you must combine the mental method and the tricks to be invincible and unbreakable. ”

Wang Lingzhi looked at the words on the paper, he didn't know most of them, although Shen Xi read it just now, but even if he wrote it down, he didn't understand it, and immediately made a bitter face: "Senior brother, what does this secret book say?" ”

Shen Xi was trying to put away the rice paper so as not to be seen, and after listening to Wang Lingzhi's question, he was a little impatient: "What do you think, how can martial arts be superb?" If you can practice into a golden bell jar and an iron cloth shirt, and you are invulnerable, then how can you lose? If others are fast, you will be faster than others, and the other party will be dazzled by your tricks and have no time to think about your next move. ”

Wang Lingzhi thought silently, and the more he pondered, the more reasonable it became, and soon he admired Shen Xi so much that he no longer dared to doubt that Shen Xi's martial arts were made up, and he secretly said in his heart: "If only I were lucky enough to meet this very powerful master." But it's not bad to have a senior brother to teach me now, I must study hard, and when the time comes, everyone will be surprised. ”

Wang Lingzhi put away the "Martial Arts Secret Book" and put it in his arms, and couldn't wait to say: "Senior brother, why don't you teach me a few more tricks, I'll go back and practice more, and let's go through the rivers and lakes together in the future." That's what Mr. Storyteller said. ”

Martial arts culture has developed greatly in the Ming Dynasty, with the continuous fermentation of the Wei and Jin dynasties and the six dynasties of Zhiwei novels, Tang legends and Song Dynasty scripts, by the time Shi Naixiang wrote "Water Margin" in contemporary times, it has developed to a peak, so it is not surprising that Wang Lingzhi has this ambition.

Shen Xi nodded, and then casually taught Wang Lingzhi a few moves, this time he used some basic movements of taekwondo, mainly kicking. After the performance, Shen Xi said: "Huaxia martial arts, there is a saying that the southern fist and the northern leg are said, these tricks I taught you are the essence of the northern leg, you have learned to go back and practice more." ”

Wang Lingzhi tried to kick twice, although it was not as standardized as Shen Xi, but he was still elated, and he ran home to practice after a while.

Shen Xi took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone back to his home, and looked carefully before entering the door, and found that there was no one in the yard, so he took three or two steps to the utility room with the door open, opened the wooden box prepared in advance, and put the things in, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't want to expose his plans too early, except that he couldn't explain that he could read and write, and that before things were done, nothing good would come of them except to provoke ridicule.

Now that Zhou has not gone to the tailor shop to do needlework, if he goes to work every day in the future and only Lin Dai and him are left at home, it will be much more convenient to do things.

In addition, it is best to have special tools for paper pressing, Shen Xi lacks tools and can only take local materials, so he has to spend time soaking the rice paper with water, first laying a layer in a flat place, and then overlapping layer by layer, preferably with four layers, and finally pressing it with a clean weight, and then taking it to the sun to dry.

Doing these things can't be done overnight, anyway, he is still young, and he doesn't have to do anything if he stays in the city, at most he can clean the yard with a broom. When Zhou goes to work, if even Lin Dai is brought over to learn needlework, he can have no worries.

Early the next morning, Zhou really took Lin Dai to the tailor shop, and Shen Xi was finally free.

From this day on, Wang Lingzhi would come over every day to learn martial arts, and by the way, he would bring a stack of rice paper.

At the beginning, Wang Lingzhi was still a little resistant to Shen Xi, worried that he would be fooled, but as he learned more and more, Wang Lingzhi admired Shen Xi so much, and the two were already as close as real brothers, and even Wang Lingzhi took the initiative to help Shen Xi press paper.

"Senior brother, what's the use of making these papers so thick? Isn't it all writing, isn't it possible to write more words on thinner paper? Wang Lingzhi didn't understand the paper pressing, so he couldn't help asking.

Shen Xi pretended to be mysterious: "You don't understand, this is the method of cultivating the mind and cultivating the mind given to me by the master, and when you have learned the martial arts, you must also cultivate a peaceful mind." Got it? ”

Wang Lingzhi is a child who knows how to play, and he doesn't care about his temperament. But he felt that what Shen Xi said was so reasonable, and he actually dreamed of the "heart" that he didn't know anything.

In this way, more than ten days have passed, and Shen Xi has painted several paintings with pressed paper, all of which are imitating the works of Wang Meng, one of the "Four Yuan Families".

Wang Meng, the word Shuming, the number Huanghe Shanqiao, Huzhou people. Maternal grandfather Zhao Mengfu, maternal grandmother Guan Sheng, uncle Zhao Yong, and cousin Zhao Yanzheng are all famous painters. In the early years of this dynasty, Wang Meng served as the governor of Tai'an, but died in prison due to the involvement of Hu Weiyong's case.

Wang Mengneng poetry, calligraphy. Especially good at painting landscapes, and can also be a figure, calligraphy and painting in the dynasty is widely spread, admired and private collection of people are very many, plus the transportation is inconvenient, the age is a little older and others are difficult to verify the authenticity.

If you want to take the kind of hand-me-down masterpieces that have been handed down for hundreds of thousands of years as a fake, firstly, it is impossible for Shen Xi to make the old seamless with the tools at hand, and more importantly, others will not believe that such a heavy treasure will appear in the small county town of Ninghua.

In the first few paintings, Shen Xi was not very satisfied. Although with his skills, it is difficult for ordinary collectors of calligraphy and painting to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, but what he wants to pursue is excellence, and he must come up with a work that cannot be distinguished from the original without distinguishing the authenticity from the fake, so that it is the highest level of fake.

It's easier said than done.

Seeing that it has been almost half a month in the city, Zhou has also worked in the tailor shop for more than ten days. That afternoon, Zhou went home and dragged Shen Xi to the room: "I discussed with your father, tomorrow there will be an old gentleman in the west of the city to teach the children who have not been enlightened to read and write, and you will go too...... You must study hard and live up to your mother's expectations, you know? ”

"Hmm."

Shen Xi nodded.

Lin Dai pouted aggrievedly: "Mother, Dai'er also wants to learn literacy." ”

Shen Xi saw Zhou's face change, and hurriedly said: "Dai'er, do you think this will work, I'll go to the school to learn literacy, and I'll teach you when I come back...... What do you think? ”

Zhou was very happy when he heard this, and patted Shen Xi's little head: "You are quite smart, why didn't I think of it?" That's right, you learned to come back and teach your sister, so that there will be one more literate person in our family, and you won't have to ask for help to write letters in the future! ”
