Chapter Twenty-Nine: Learning Martial Arts (There Will Be Four Watches Today, Ask for Collection)
The next morning, Li Ce was woken up by the sound of the soldiers in the barracks drilling, he opened his eyes and rubbed his temples vigorously, he had drunk a little too much last night and still had a headache. Remembering that Xian'er was still waiting for him at home, he wanted to say goodbye.
Unexpectedly, when Chen Yaozuo heard that he was leaving, he forcibly detained him and refused to let him go, saying that it was rare to meet such a young handsome man, and he must stay for a few more days.
This guy thought about the beauty in his heart, and the military camp was so boring, how could he be willing to follow, he shirked it several times in succession, Chen Yaozuo said with a straight face: "You kid ate a big fish from the old man that day, don't say it, the old man saved your life yesterday, and took advantage of the boss to be so boring?" ”
Li Ce looked at his stiff face, and had no choice but to agree, who let himself owe other people's favors. It's okay to stay here for a few days, but you can't be so idle...... Thinking of the street fight that day, Li Ce's eyes suddenly lit up, there should be many people with strong martial arts in the army, why not take this opportunity to learn some martial arts to protect yourself?
And since he has come to the Great Song Dynasty, in this era of cold weapons, it is always beneficial to know how to do kung fu.
"My lord, it's okay for you to keep me here, but you're busy with official business during the day, and I have nothing to do, so it's better for you to find someone to teach me some martial arts, so that I can also have some self-preservation power in the future." Li Ce said.
Li Ce was originally worried about his resignation, but he didn't expect Chen Yaozuo to praise him after hearing it, he stroked his beard and said: "Our Great Song Dynasty's style of emphasizing literature and ignoring martial arts is too prosperous, because martial artists have no status, so literati only care about dancing and writing and making ink, and they don't bother to learn martial arts at all." When I was a teenager, I was also trapped in a false name, and when I woke up, I was already in my prime, and I didn't have the energy and physical strength to practice martial arts anymore, which was also a big regret for the old man. ”
Li Ce said in his heart: Don't just talk about not practicing, you should arrange a master for me.
"Oh, take it, which general you want to learn from, just take the jade pendant and let him teach it." Chen Yaozuo suddenly took off the jade pendant on his waist and handed it to Li Ce.
Li Ce was taken aback, and hurriedly excused himself and said that he would not accept it. But he couldn't help it, and secretly glanced at it, this jade pendant is green and transparent, it should be worth a lot of money, and if you can't eat it in the future, you can eat it for a long time...... This guy actually thought of this.
Chen Yaozuo said with a smile: "The old man has a fate with you, so I gave you a jade pendant, as the so-called elder receives, don't let it, take it quickly." ”
Li Ce was already itching, grinned when he heard this, and reached out to take the jade pendant.
Chen Yaozuo's jade pendant was given by his mentor when he was a teenager, and he had been wearing it for more than 20 years, if he knew that the reason why Li Ce accepted the jade pendant was because he could get it to the pawnshop for meat to eat, he would probably vomit blood in anger.
Li Ce strode towards the school with the jade pendant, and after a while, he walked into the school field, but saw that the officers and soldiers were standing in a queue, and there were four generals with spears in their hands at the front of the drill. Every time they made a move, the soldiers behind them drew a gourd and followed it again, although the number of people was large, but it was also uniform, it seemed that it had been practicing for a long time.
However, after watching it for a while, he was a little interested, and everyone practiced back and forth, that is, those few mechanical and rigid movements, which reminded Li Ce of radio gymnastics when he was in school......
At this time, several generals also found him, and came over to say hello, Li Ce was overjoyed, and hurriedly explained his intentions excitedly, who knew that the generals shook their heads unanimously when they heard it.
The reasons can be summed up: your physique is too weak to practice martial arts. Because of the martial arts they are familiar with, they all need a strong physique to support them, and a body like Li Ce can't withstand the toss at all.
Of course, Li Ce didn't believe it, he thought that the generals were hiding their secrets and were unwilling to teach themselves. Until one of the generals received his own lance, danced it and handed it to Li Ce, and let him try it too. Li Ce didn't dance for a long time, he believed that everyone didn't lie to him, this long lance weighed thirty pounds, and it was difficult to carry it in his hand, let alone wield it handily.
Li Ce sighed and asked, "Alas, I can't learn something else?" For example, swordsmanship, this doesn't seem to require a lot of strength. ”
"Swordsmanship is not suitable for battlefield fighting, it is only suitable for one-on-one small-scale fighting, so no one in the army is proficient in this way." A general said.
Li Ce hurriedly said: "Isn't there a martial art that I can practice?" ”
The generals look at me, I look at you, and finally come to the unanimous conclusion: you can only learn archery!
But this arrow is not another sword, but an archery, which does not require a lot of strength and a solid foundation. And a general pointed out to him that the highest archery skill in the army was the commander of the military capital, Yiqi, and asked him to go to Guan Yiqi to teach archery.
In the early Northern Song Dynasty, taking the border army as an example, the army was organized by the commander and the army, usually 500 people were commanded as a command, and 5 to 10 commanders were an army. Guan Yiqi and Song Jingang are both commanders of the First Army.
After Li Ce asked Ming Guan Yiqi where he was, after being polite to the generals, he left and went to Guan Yiqi's place.
When the generals saw that Li Ce was gone, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, it was not an easy task to teach a literati to practice martial arts, and this person was quite appreciated by Chen Shuai, and he couldn't beat and scold, it was really a headache, but fortunately, he was finally taken away by coaxing and deception.
The generals actually knew in their hearts that with the personality of Guan Yiqi, they really didn't necessarily buy Chen Shuai's account, and Li Ce might not touch a lot of bad luck if he went, but everyone knew it and didn't break it, as long as they didn't learn from themselves.
Li Ce followed everyone's instructions and inquired all the way, and finally found Guan Yiqi's archery field.
Li Ce looked from afar, and saw that the school field here was not as open as other school fields, and the number of soldiers who practiced was not much, and there were only about five or six hundred people scattered around, and the soldiers were bending their bows and arrows at the arrow targets in the row in front.
In the open space on the east side of the soldiers, a lean man stood with his hands in his hands, staring intently at the soldiers' drills.
I saw that this person was about forty years old, and his figure was a little slender and not particularly burly, but it gave people an extremely refined feeling, especially a pair of ape arms were quite eye-catching, and it was obvious that they were slightly longer than ordinary people's arms, he had a dark complexion, was dressed in dark black armor, and his hands were behind his back, standing like a pine and cypress in the cold wind, standing proudly.
Seeing this person's dress and momentum, Li Ce thought that this person should be an official Yiqi, and after a short pause, he walked forward quickly.
"This is the commander of the official capital, right? Look up for a long time. Li Ce hugged his fists and said with a polite smile.
Guan Yiqi glanced at Li Ce sideways, his brows furrowed slightly, and after confirming that he didn't know Li Ce, he was so cold and arrogant that he turned his head away.
Li Ce was taken aback and said in his heart: It seems that this person is not very good-tempered, why didn't he notice such a number one person at last night's banquet? Looking at this official Yiqi's attitude is really annoying, but he thought about it again, it seems that most capable people like him are arrogant and arrogant, and it is normal to have some strange tempers, after all, he is here to learn art, how can he retreat because he is a little angry.
I remember that when I first came to the bank in my previous life, I didn't understand many businesses, and sometimes when I asked others for advice, others were also impatient, but I learned that it was my own, and others couldn't rob it. Thinking of this, Li Ce began to grind hard again, giving full play to his ability to stalk, just like when he was in college, the teacher didn't give him a passing grade, he just begged for nothing and didn't leave, and in the end, the teacher really had no choice, so he gave him a passing grade.
Li Ce always thought that this method was good, but Guan Yiqi kept staring at the school training ground intently, and never turned his head to look at him.
This guy said that he was spitting and flying wildly, thinking that he could say that the dead were alive and the living were dead, but Guan Yiqi was still indifferent, as if he had never heard it at all.
Li Ce saw that there was really no way, so he had to give up, and was just about to leave, but he heard someone shouting at him, and turned his head to look, it turned out to be Song Jingang.
Song Jingang quickly ran to Li Ce's side, panted and said, "I heard that Mr. Li wants to learn martial arts?" Is there such a thing? ”
Li Ce nodded, and Song Jingang said happily: "Wow, my old Song will teach you!" These thirty-six wand methods are infinitely powerful, coming and going. As he spoke, he was about to pull Li Ce away.
"Wait, you...... Is it Li Ce? Guan Yiqi suddenly turned around, staring at Li Ce with blazing eyes and asked.
"Well, yes, what's wrong?" Li Ce was a little puzzled, could it be that this official still knew himself?
"I didn't expect it to be a weak scholar, don't ......" Guan Yiqi frowned lightly and said to himself.
