Chapter 52: The Sword

"It's not a knife technique, it's a society now, where is that kind of thing. What I'm telling you is not a systematic knife technique, nor is it a secret technique, you think that those gorgeous knife skills like those in movies and anime are very wrong. It's just something that an old man has come up with, and personally, I think it might be of some use to you, so I'm telling you. Bai Yi explained.

"The old man called this thing ...... Knife Momentum! Bai Yi said, falling from the air with a straight slashing knife, and then suddenly hovered in the air.

"This is the most basic knife position!"

The most basic knife position?

Everyone watched Bai Yi's movements, and after watching for a while, they didn't know why they were at all. The so-called most basic will not be the next split. Bai Yi saw the blank appearance of a group of people, and suddenly felt very eager to laugh, thinking that at the beginning, he obviously followed the old man to learn cooking, but he learned a bunch of these messy things.

Hong Qihua looked at Bai Yi's movements, and suddenly her eyes lit up, completely still!

"Is it still?"

"Someone finally saw it, yes, this is the most basic control of the knife, if you can't even do the stationary of the knife, there is no need to say anything else." Bai Yi said, signaled again, and his right hand was held flat in the air with the knife in this way, without the slightest movement.

Hong Qihua also drew one of her short knives, and then held it flat in the air. Her two short knives were less than twenty-five centimeters, and their weight was also very light, which was completely incomparable to Bai Yi's straight chopping knife. But when Hong Qihua was held in the air, she immediately noticed that her own muscles were trembling involuntarily. It's not exhaustion, it's not that it's too heavy, it's the muscles that tremble automatically, not obviously, but it's there.

When the others saw Hong Qihua's movements, they also raised their knives. Everyone, like Hong Qihua, suddenly found that when he held his knife, his arm was always shaking slightly. And no matter how they change their positions, this shaking is always there.

Bai Yi didn't directly tell Hong Qihua how to exercise, but beckoned to Mo Mo.

"Momo, you try it too!"

Mo Mo looked at Bai Yi, and after a while, she nodded happily.

"Hmm!" Mo Mo replied immaturely, and clumsily picked up the short knife that Bai Yi had chosen for her. This short knife is also a straight chopping knife, only more than half a meter long, but for Mo Mo, it is a long knife, and even small hands need both hands to grasp the handle. Bai Yi also didn't tell Mo Mo what to do, just watched Mo Mo clumsily fiddling with the straight chopping knife there.

Sha Pei watched from the side, suddenly opened his mouth widely, yawned, and then continued to lie on the ground, looking at Bai Yi and the others lazily. And the pet pig Puff was separated by a distance from the Sand Skin, and the round body was also lying on the ground. As Bai Yi said before, the creatures that parasitize living xìng cells have become more intelligent...... Even if it's a pig.

After a while, Bai Yi smiled in Mo Mo's watery eyes, and taught Mo Mo how to hold the knife hand in hand. After Mo Mo clenched the straight slashing knife, Bai Yi looked at everyone. Only Hong Qihua was not distracted at all by the movement just now, and kept holding her right hand flat, her eyes watching the movement of her right hand.

"There is no absolute stillness, even if it is truly still, it is just the eyes deceiving you, what you need to master is to clearly grasp every pulse of your muscles." Bai Yi pressed the straight chopping knife against Hong Qihua's short knife.

Hong Qihua immediately noticed that the short knife in her hand was not moving. However, it doesn't feel like leaning on a stationary object, but as if Bai Yi's movements are adjusting with the trembling of his muscles. However, this kind of change, embodied in absolute stillness, is unusually weird.

The others looked over, and Bai Yi also demonstrated them one by one, and then Bai Yi sat down slightly tired. The injured body is so troublesome that the slightest movement can't hold on.

"I want you to understand that when I let you choose a knife, I don't mean that you have to use a knife."

"What's that for?"

"Body!"

"The knife is just an extension of the body, and what I want you to master is your gradually stronger physical strength. It doesn't matter if you want to, with an axe, a stick, an empty-handed fist, or anything, essentially, as long as you master and exert your own great strength. The reason why you choose knives is that knives are easier to obtain, and in the early days, it is certainly much safer to have a weapon than to be empty-handed. ”

After everyone heard Bai Yi's words, they nodded slowly, thoughtfully.

"Uncle Bai, you are a chef, it turns out that you need to learn so many things to be a chef?" Hong Qihua asked curiously. The others also looked over, if the chefs were so good, then how could they still mix.

"Ah...... Haha When Bai Yi heard this, he couldn't help but smirk awkwardly.

"Of course not, I guess only that old man is crazy like this. The old man I'm talking about is the master who taught me how to cook, and he was active in the nineties of the last century. At that time, ancient martial arts novels were popular, and the old man was also crazy at that time, and he blindly pondered a set of so-called 'swordsmanship'. Of course, he didn't become a martial arts master, and he only became a chef in the end. Later, when I was learning to cook, he forced me to learn a mess. After laughing, Bai Yi explained to everyone.

"However, at that time, I learned quite hard, and I thought that I had met the legendary master." Bai Yi suddenly remembered something and laughed.

"Oh, what's going on?" The others couldn't help but laugh.

"Actually, it's my own martial arts complex, before I learned cooking, I happened to watch Xingye's movie, and I forgot the name, it's the one in the palm of the gods. My dad said I wasn't doing well in my studies and told me to just learn to be a chef. I was reluctant to go, but I found that the old man who taught cooking was actually a legendary 'master', not to mention how excited I was at the time. Bai Yi said, and he laughed.

As long as it is in China, who has never had a dream of martial arts, especially for Bai Yi at that time, at the age of fifteen or sixteen, how could he not be excited to death when he met a legendary master.

After hearing this, Hong Qihua couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

Others must not understand, only Hong Qihua, who is also Chinese, understands this martial arts complex in the bones of Chinese.

No matter how strange Bai Yi's 'knife gestures' are, for now, at least they are still more useful. Maybe it doesn't have the amazing power in the movie, but just looking at Bai Yi's ability to control the knife much better than the others, you know that these things are still useful.

Bai Yi explained for a few hours, that is, the so-called 'knife momentum', not just the previous stillness, but also some other things. In fact, these things are not complicated to put it bluntly, and they are not as magical as imagined, but they are just the jīng control of the knife. In the past, people didn't care about these because there was no need, who would practice any sword techniques in modern society?

Bai Yi spoke dryly, because these theories have a very heavy Chinese atmosphere, and only Hong Qihua can fully understand. And after the translation into English, it always seems nondescript, and I don't know if other people understand it.

Seeing that Mo Mo had already dozed off slightly, Bai Yi stopped explaining and asked everyone to get ready to rest.

……

At night, everyone made simple beds in two adjacent classrooms and prepared to rest. The food in the school has basically been taken away, but there are still a lot of things such as quilts in the student dormitory, and now in this environment, you can't ask for more.

"Daddy!" Mo Mo took Bai Yi's right hand. Since she was sensible, Mo Mo has been sleeping with Bai Yi, and now she is suddenly separating, and Mo Mo is a little uneasy.

"Don't be afraid, follow Sister Hong Qihua and them, but there is one thing to remember......." Bai Yi quietly leaned close to Mo Mo's ear. "Don't wet the bed."

Mo Mo's face suddenly turned red, and the fine fluff that grew out shook and shook.

"No, no!" When Mo Mo said this, she obviously didn't have much confidence.

"Haha Bai Yi couldn't help but laugh when he saw Mo Mo's appearance. The others heard Bai Yi's laughter, and they didn't know what Bai Yi was laughing at. Hong Qihua walked over and looked at Bai Yi and Mo Mo suspiciously. At this time, of course, Bai Yi would not spread the news of his daughter's troubles, this is a secret, a secret.

"It's nothing, Momo will ask you to take care of it." Bai Yi said.

"Shapi, you also go over, be careful of the jǐng ring!" Bai Yi said to Sha Pei. Now one meter and five long, the tall Shar Pei has become very hideous and ferocious.

"Wang!" Shar Pei screamed, and followed her past the lady's classroom. Obviously, Shar Pei could really understand Bai Yi's words. After Hong Qihua took Mo Mo to the classroom next door, Bai Yi returned to the classroom where the man slept here. As soon as he entered the room, Woolf sneaked up next to Bai Yi and whispered.

"The owner of my quilt is definitely a girl, and I smell a fragrance." Woolf said proudly to Bai Yi.

“……!” Bai Yi was dumbfounded, Woolf, you guy.

"Stupid, all the bedding here is taken from the girls' dormitory." Martin complained. The two began to talk again, and soon after, they seemed to start whispering something again. Occasionally, Martin's smug voice could be heard, with words like 'bra, lace'. Bai Yi couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it beside him, but he couldn't help but interject a few words occasionally.

The girls' dormitory has always been a man's romance... Said!
