Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Fake Chef with an Embroidered Spring Knife
Although Mo Tie had already eaten a table of wine and food at a street shop, his amount of food was as bottomless as his strength, so he happily sat down.
"Virtuous nephew, since Shen Lian's mother died, I saw that there were too many people in my family, so I let them all out, leaving only the old man who had been with me for half his life. Ordinary meals are outside, or at home casually fooling around, you are unlucky, today I came back late, and I didn't prepare, so I had to invite you to eat some outside meals. However, the chef's skills in this Zhiweilou are really good, and Shen Lian loves to eat when he is young. ”
Mo Tie smiled: "Whatever my uncle said, I should be disturbed." According to me, you don't need to spend so much money, we just need to deal with it casually. ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, both understanding what the other meant.
Old Shen is not stupid, a blood-stained cloth, and Shen Lian's "confession" almost clearly indicate Mo Tie's identity - a deserter.
But he greeted Mo Tie warmly, Fang Yi sat down, didn't ask about the origin, didn't mention the military, only said that Shen Lian also liked to eat the food of Zhiweilou, indicating that he agreed to the "take care of one or two" mentioned in Shen Lian's letter.
Mo Tie politely said, and then used simple words like "grandfather" to show that he was willing to believe in Lao Shen's personality.
Of course, Chang often thinks that this is a very ordinary conversation, nothing special, he just needs to serve a good meal on the side.
The wine and food of Zhiweilou are indeed famous, and just on the road, Mo Tie heard that someone met with Zhiweilou, and it was difficult to find one.
The taste is moderate, it seems that he often asked the cook to make it deliberately, after all, he doesn't know where Mo Tie is from, and he is used to eating the dishes of the capital.
Lao Shen watched Mo Tie swallow it in a big gulp, and suddenly remembered Shen Lian when he was a child, that kid didn't like to eat when he was young, he was born thin, he was always bullied, and he didn't have any friends, so he developed a stuffy gourd temperament now.
I didn't expect that the first friend was made on the battlefield.
Lao Shen once went out as a Jinyi guard with the army, and he also heard a thing or two of the intrigues in the army, and he also knew that friendship was not as simple as words.
"Virtuous nephew, Shen Lian said that you are quite powerful, I don't know where you are the teacher?" Lao Shen suddenly spoke, not waiting for Mo Tie to respond, and continued, "My Shen family also has some martial arts experience, and I also ask my nephew for some advice." ”
Mo Tie was stunned, what does this mean?
"Uncle, Brother Shen is exaggerating, I just have some strength, but I don't understand martial arts at all."
"Oh?" Lao Shen was a little strange, and said, "It's okay, let's compare and contrast after dinner." ”
Then he picked up the cup, and Mo Tie could not refuse.
Mo Tie finished the rest of the meal suspiciously, wiped his mouth, and said, "Uncle, I'm done." ”
"Okay, you come with me."
……
The back garden of Shen Lian's house is quite large, so Lao Shen changed it to a martial arts training ground, and some different weapons were placed on both sides.
Lao Shen picked a simple knife and said, "Nephew Xian, what weapon do you need, just use it." ”
"Okay."
Mo Tie didn't know weapons, he looked left and right, and he didn't know which one was better to use, not to mention, which one was almost the same in his hand, so he simply picked a long knife with a similar shape to the knife he picked up from the battlefield.
"Embroidered spring knife...... Good nephew and good eye! Old Shen said with a smile.
"Huh?" Mo Tie lowered his head and looked at the practice knife in his hand over and over again, "Is this the famous embroidered spring knife?" ”
Lao Shen didn't interrupt him, and waited until he had seen it three or five times before he said, "Virtuous nephew, look at the move." ”
When Mo Tie heard this, he held the knife in front of him as a precaution.
Lao Shen slashed Huashan with a top-down force, but in fact, there was a lack of energy, if Mo Tie was flustered, he could immediately return the knife and retreat.
Mo Tie had super nerves, he saw Lao Shen's knife clearly, and dodged with a dodge.
Lao Shen was slightly surprised, and did not wait for the knife to get old, and turned to a cross-cut halfway.
Mo Tie also saw it, but he was dodging, if he wanted to dodge Lao Shen's second knife again, he had to wait for the second foot to land, but by that time, Lao Shen's knife must have been able to touch his left arm.
Helpless, Mo Tie had no choice but to swing his knife and intercept Lao Shen from the bottom up.
He heard Lao Shen say that he wanted to learn martial arts, so he made a decision, not brute force, but "martial arts", but he really didn't know how much force he needed to use to block Lao Shen's knife without making Lao Shen's mouth numb.
So, a little less?
"Bell."
Mo Tie covered his face, and it was like this again.
Lao Shen looked at the broken knife in his hand in surprise, and smiled awkwardly: "The virtuous nephew is really good, cough, the courage is amazing." ”
Subsequently, after Mo Tie's explanation, Lao Shen understood Mo Tie's perversion.
"Virtuous nephew, you said that you cut a spearman into two parts?"
Yes.
"And cut off the thigh bone of a golden soldier directly from the buttocks?"
That's right.
"Did you use an ordinary embroidered spring knife?"
It's not clear, by the way, uncle, I brought it back, in the front yard dining room.
Lao Shen took Mo Tie's long knife that Lao Chang brought and pulled it out.
"Boom!"
"Good knives." Lao Shen touched the spine and edge of the knife, and said, "Virtuous nephew, this is the embroidered spring knife of Jinyi Wei Baihu, and the craftsmanship is special and the quality is high. ”
Mo Tie suddenly realized, no wonder this knife is so sharp, even people with bones, and it can be cut according to it.
"However, only the nephew is so powerful that he can cut off the person with the rib vertebrae after cutting off the golden iron spear." Old Shen boasted.
Mo Tie scratched his head, he couldn't help it with great strength.
"It's just, nephew. The way you use the knife is really ...... I'm afraid you've only seen a kitchen knife used by your family to cook before, right? ”
Well, that's true, uncle, what do you mean?
Since he was a child, Mo Tie has lived in a peaceful new century, and of course it is impossible to see anyone in reality with a knife other than a kitchen knife.
"Virtuous nephew, you are holding an embroidered spring knife like a fake cook." Lao Shen pointed out mercilessly.
"I really believe that you haven't learned any martial arts at all."
I've told you a long time ago, it's hard to dismantle it.
"Haha, virtuous nephew, what do you think of my Shen family's martial arts? Old Shen said with a smile.
Suddenly, Mo Tie understood, no wonder when the meal was not finished before, Lao Shen opened his mouth to learn from him, it turned out that he had long been ready to use the Shen family's kung fu as a reward for Mo Tie saving Shen Lian. It's just not good to say "I'll teach you kung fu" directly, so I said that the two of them would learn one or two.
"Uncle, Brother Shen and I hit it off at first sight, and we have no other intentions." Mo Tie is embarrassed.
The ancients valued the inheritance the most, he was a person with a foreign surname, if he learned the martial arts of the Shen family, for Lao Shen, he would also have to bear the discussion of his family.
"Don't worry, Shen Lian and I, you have your own hands, I simply can't get used to you wasting your excellent talents."
With just two simple swords, Lao Shen could see that Mo Tie had the two points that a master should have, agility and strength.
