Chapter 7 Ancient Mansions
I don't care at all if I can get a wife or not, what I care about at the moment is to coax the girl in front of me first. So, I patiently explained with a flattering face: "Still angry? I really didn't mean to, you think, when you're in the shower, wouldn't it be rude if I was casually talking or chatting next door? Also, it's really not worth it to be angry with others......"
"The happy mood is your own, and if you are depressed for a stupid person, won't you become like him?"
Under my chatter, Chen Qingxue finally calmed down, maybe from the moment she opened the door, she was not so angry. She said with a little emotion: "It's better than ...... Forget it, it's all over, honestly, what do you see? ”
I looked aggrieved and said, "As soon as I heard the door open, I was so frightened that I quickly turned around...... What else do you have time to see? ”
She stared at me and burst out laughing, and I suddenly felt that something was wrong, so I asked her, "Did you see something?" ”
She laughed and said, "I won't tell you unless you tell me what you and the little couple have said......"
I thought about it for a while, and I thought it was no big deal, so I said, "I just said, hello brother, my girlfriend has a broken foot, and there is no light in the alley, can you please do us a favor and give us a ride?" You see, I have too many things to carry her, I don't have to get in the car, just follow you, we live in the middle of this alley......"
Chen Qingxue said disdainfully: "I'm bah! It's not beautiful, but it's beautiful, your girlfriend? You don't need to change color when you lie! ”
I smiled and said: "Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills, they look like a couple, if you say this, they will have a feeling of meeting people in the same way, and it is easier to help out of compassion, don't you think I have succeeded properly?" ”
She yawned, and it seemed that she was really tired today, so I said with concern: "If you are tired, rest early!" ”
She nodded and said, "Okay, you can go to bed early!" ”
I quickly added, "By the way, you haven't answered me yet?" ”
"I didn't see anything......" she slammed the door shut.
I asked aloud, "Really?" ”
She opened the door again, poked her head out, blinked her pretty eyes, and said, "Fake! ”
Looking at my serious face, she suddenly laughed insolently again: "A big man, his ass is so ...... Hahaha...... I'm laughing to death......"
With that, I slammed the door shut again, leaving me standing in the doorway in amazement.
Early the next morning, I wore a sleeveless vest and practiced in the courtyard downstairs for a while before He Chuan walked out of the house sleepily. I said hello, and he replied, "Wake up so early and don't sleep more?" ”
I replied, "I don't sleep much, so I'll get up and move......
He glanced at my muscles and asked, "Look at the way you look, have you ever practiced?" ”
I smiled and said: "I have practiced a little, like me, in ancient times, I was a person who walked the rivers and lakes, and I definitely need to learn some skills to walk the rivers and lakes, right?" ”
He also smiled and said, "I envy you, you live a chic and comfortable life." ”
I said, "It's like that, when you have something that bothers you, you envy other people's lifestyles. When you really live with that lifestyle, new troubles come again. Nothing in this world is perfect, for example, your life may be envied by others but not obtained......"
He smiled and said no way, I think you know so much! ”
"Haha, it's just a lot of seeing, if I have a choice, I'd rather be ignorant, the simpler it is, the less troubles it will have!"
He asked me again, "What school or type of kung fu are you practicing?" ”
I replied: "I practiced more miscellaneous, when I was a child, I practiced eight-step chain boxing, lotus boxing, belongs to Shaolin boxing, and later practiced various boxing methods by myself, such as 'Eight Immortals Mianjin', Chuangjin, Gongjin, Collapse Jin, Sticky Jin, etc.; Chuangjin is straight, not easy to rise and fall; The strength is a bit rigid, and the ability to change is not enough; Collapse is rapid and explosive, the power is large but it is not easy to connect, the sticky dexterity is fast, the hand is strong, and the hair is received as soon as it is shot, which is not too laborious; I also practiced traditional freehand, grappling, and free fighting......"
He Chuan said in surprise: "It's amazing, it's easy to practice boxing, it's not easy to be able to punch?" ”
I said, "It's okay, as long as you master its operation rules, power generation methods, and force skills, and then practice more, such as ......."
As I spoke, I fell off my horse, put my fist in my waist and abdomen, and slammed a punch, and I couldn't help but make a muffled sound in my throat; Then get up slightly, turn your fist into a palm, relax the muscles of your whole body, and then kick hard under your feet, twist your waist, send your hips, and shake your arms forward, turning your palms into fists, and making a punching sound; I took another sharp step forward, stomping sideways and falling off my horse, bending my elbow at the same time.
I asked him, "Do you see any difference between the three moves I played?" ”
He Chuan said: "Although I haven't practiced, but my grandfather used to be very powerful, so he can barely understand it, the muscles of the first punch are tense, and he exhales very violently and directly, but you hold back and don't roar." The second punch seems to be relaxed, but you kick the ground first and break your leg, by which time you have already exerted your strength, but that power will not be sent out until you reach your waist and hips. Finally, the landing elbow is to use the sudden gravity and impact force to concentrate and burst forward. ”
I exclaimed, "Yes, the physics is good!" ”
He Chuan smiled and said: "It's just that I have seen and listened a lot, and when I was a child, my grandfather would insist on practicing martial arts every day when he was still there." ”
I explained: "The first punch is strength, which belongs to mechanical force in terms of physical explanation, and the second type belongs to inch strength or shaking strength, which lies in precise strikes, fast delivery and quick receiving, and it is also more energy-saving." The action of the final elbow belongs to the collapse force, the blow force is very large, and the instant burst is not easy to retract. ”
He Chuan praised: "Amazing! If my grandfather is still here, you must be very chatty, he is best at 'bench skills' and 'Qimen short sticks'.
I was surprised and said, "It's a shame that these are almost lost." ”
He Chuan said: "Yes, fewer and fewer people practice the more famous boxing, not to mention these not well-known." You say, if there is a fight? Which one is more powerful? ”
I smiled and said, "It's all great to practice to the depths, the so-called 'Wen Wu first, Wu Wu no second'." But in today's society, all the fights and brawls are not bad, and when the police uncle comes, they all pack up and take them away......"
He Chuan laughed and said, "Yes, although you can't fight, you can participate in the competition!" ”
I said, "That's different, you also said, it's a game, and competitive competition is the same as tug-of-war and kicking, it's just a kind of sports competition, with its own set of rules, and there are many forbidden moves and forbidden parts." Even if it's called 'decathlon', mixed martial arts has its rules, and there are no worries about real fights or fights. For example, if a punch hits a vulnerable part such as the larynx bone or cervical spine, the fight can easily end. ”
After chatting for a while, we cooked the 'mung bean flour' we bought yesterday for breakfast. After adding some fried sauce, chili sauce and green cabbage leaves, the taste was really good, and I took a big bowl upstairs, which was prepared for Chen Qingxue.
Finally called her out of the room, she yawned lazily and said, "Actually, I woke up a long time ago, but I was too tired to get up yesterday." ”
"Looks like you've finally had a good night's sleep!"
"It's alright!"
"I cooked the 'mung bean flour' I bought yesterday with He Chuan, let's eat it while it's hot!"
She rubbed her eyes: "I'll go wash up first......"
I grabbed her and said, "Eat it first and then go, it won't taste good after a while!" ”
She smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you." ”
Before she finished eating, Chen Qingxue received a mobile phone message, and after reading it, she said: "My dad sent me a message and asked me to find someone, are you free for a while?" If so, can you come with me? ”
I smiled and said, "If I'm free, even if I don't, I'll be very idle when you need it......"
She gave me a blank look and said, "It's becoming annoying, isn't it?" ”
Almost half of the bowl of mung bean noodles was eaten, Chen Qingxue put down her chopsticks and said that she couldn't finish it. I said, "It's okay if you can't finish eating, but waste is not good after all, I can finish it for you......"
Chen Qingxue glared at me and said, "Do you want to be so disgusting?" ”
I deliberately looked surprised and said, "Girl, how can you say that about yourself?" That's the ...... you've ever eaten."
Before I finished speaking, I quickly picked up her remaining half bowl of 'mung bean flour' and ran downstairs. Because I saw her bend down to take off her slippers, and I didn't have to think about it to guess what she was going to do next. Sure enough, when I was still going down the stairs, I heard her loud and beautiful voice: "Zu Junyang, you wait for me......"
We went around and finally found the address located in the northwest of the ancient town, because Chen Qingxue was coming to the ancient town to 'respond to the robbery'. Therefore, I have long consulted a lot of literature about the ancient town, and I have made up all kinds of related knowledge, whether it is scientific or unscientific, and I have not let it go.
In front of us is a closed compound, the old stone lion at the entrance has a lot of moss, and the maroon red gate is a sign that has been repainted in recent years. The patina on the copper ring, as well as the mottled plaque, all prove that it is a genuine ancient house.
Chen Qingxue said that this is one of the few old houses in the ancient town that has been preserved relatively well. According to literature, this old mansion was one of the largest families in the town during the Qing Dynasty. I looked at the plaque at the door, and there were only two words: 'Zhao Zhai'.
It may be because of the age, and the handwriting does not look very clear.
