Chapter 8: Missed
Hearing what the stone said, Nan Guo Min'er reluctantly raised her head and looked up at the stone. Thinking about it, this Nan Guo Min'er also hasn't slept all night, her eyes are red and red, and there are seven points of happiness and three points of disgust in her eyes.
Facing the pointing of the people around him, Shi lowered his head slightly, and took Nan Guo Min'er back to the room first.
Seeing that the two of them were leaving, the shopkeeper hurriedly asked in a loud voice: "Little lady, my shopkeeper is innocent, you have to relieve the poison on my shopkeeper's body!" ”
"It's natural to be hungry for the three-body problem." Nan Guo Min'er didn't even look back, waved her hand, and said so.
Thinking of the figure of the fat shopkeeper, Shi couldn't help laughing, secretly thinking that not eating for three days must be a kind of torment for him.
"You're still laughing, I didn't even settle accounts with you!" Nan Guo Min'er put on an angry face, crossed her hands on her hips, and said hatefully, "Tell me honestly, why do you have to stay up all night?" If you have something, you should tell us about it. Do you know what it's like to worry about someone and stay awake all night? ”
Facing Nan Guo Min'er's duties, Shi was a little embarrassed. His eyes drooped slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "I just want to go out for a walk." I'm sorry to worry you. ”
"You ......" Nan Guo Min'er can't do anything with such a stone, he looks completely innocent and harmless, as if you say a lot of heavy words to him, it is a kind of harm, which makes people unbearable. Min'er waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I have to warn you this time, if you don't say goodbye like this in the future, I will use all the poison on you!" ”
Nodding his head invisibly, Shi looked at Xiaoxi who was watching the excitement on the bed, Shi leaned over and scraped the tip of his nose, and said, "Look at your good complexion, come up, we should go on the road." ”
"Hmm." Xiaoxi sat up obediently, dressed himself, and at the same time looked at the stone, and said cautiously, "Brother Shi, do you think I'm a burden, so I don't even want Sister Min'er?" If that's the case, leave me behind. ”
Xiaoxi's rabbit-like cautious appearance made Shi feel guilty, stroked his head and said, "There won't be a next time." ”
When the three of them had packed up, they put their things in the wagon and prepared to leave the town. However, the exit of the town is very lively today, it turns out that Zhang Yuanwai set up a ring there, and he fought in the civil and martial arts, just looking for a lover for his beloved daughter.
Looking at the bustle of the crowd in front of her, Nan Guo Min'er became curious, turned around and looked at the stone and said: "You wait for me here, I'm going to go to the front to see what that daughter looks like, let her Lao Tzu use such a big battle to help her choose a son-in-law!" ”
What Nan Guo Min'er was going to do, no one could really stop it, so Shi simply parked the carriage on the side of the road and waited for Nan Guo Min'er.
At this moment, a woman wearing a white veil walked forward slowly accompanied by a maidservant.
Xiao Xi looked at the wonderful fights above, and couldn't help but admire: "Wow, they are so powerful, they can fly so high!" Brother Shi, do you think I can practice so well in the future? ”
Shi squinted at it, and then smiled: "As far as the kung fu of that three-legged cat is not worth mentioning at all, as long as Xiao Xiken practices diligently, he will definitely be much better than them." ”
The words of the stone made the woman in white yarn, who happened to pass by the carriage, pause, and looked at the stone dimly through the white veil.
"Miss, what's wrong?"
The woman shook her head, indicating that it was okay, and then moved on.
After a while, Nan Guo Min'er returned disappointed, muttering: "What, I said that I was choosing a son-in-law for my daughter, but I didn't even show up for my daughter, it's really insincere." I haven't even seen what I look like, what do you say these guys break their heads and grab an ugly monster in the end? ”
"What are you bothering about," Stone said amusedly, "maybe she hasn't arrived, or you've gone too early." Alright, we've been delayed long enough, it's time to leave. ”
"Okay, okay," Nan Guo Min'er said disappointedly, "I didn't pay attention to such a small scene, so let's go!" Jumping into the carriage, Nan Guo Min'er raised her whip, turned around, and slowly left the lively crowd.
In the center of the field, a woman wearing a white veil stood behind Zhang Yuanwai, and called in a sweet voice: "Daddy." ”
Hearing his daughter's voice, Zhang Yuanwai came back to his senses with a spring on his face, and said with a smile: "Why did you come, you come and see, today my father helped you to take a good look at several good sons and sons-in-law, and it was more than enough to be your husband." ”
Zhang Qing'e just raised her head and swept it lightly, and then said, "Dad, among those people, there is no one who can be worthy of his daughter." ”
Listening to his daughter's words, Zhang Yuanwai was stunned for a moment, and then asked unhappily: "Then who do you value?" ”
The slender fingers pointed far ahead, only to find that the carriage that had been there had disappeared.
"How so?" Zhang Qing'e muttered distractedly, "I can't hear his voice wrong." ”
Zhang Yuanwai thought that this was just his daughter's procrastination, and said dissatisfiedly: "I know, you still think about that person in your heart, but he is dead, do you want to be widowed for the rest of your life for a dead man!" ”
Zhang Qing'e bit her lip, her weak face showed a touch of tenacity that she had never had before, and said: "I know that in my father's eyes, marrying me to a clan is the best destination. But has Daddy ever thought about my feelings? Is marrying a big family really happiness? If I marry with a dead heart, I will not do anything for my father at all, but will contribute to a period of resentment, and my father thinks that you can get anything other than the contempt and resentment of your husband's family? But if I choose a husband by myself, I will naturally be willing to teach my husband and children, and in the same way, I will be willing to seek more benefits for the family. I promised my father that the husband I chose would let him check first, and if you objected, I would never go my own way. On the contrary, I also hope that Daddy will respect my opinion, and only then will it be good for both parties, right? ”
The original anger slowly passed because of Zhang Qing'e's kind words, Zhang Yuanwai looked at his daughter as if he was looking at a stranger, and said in disbelief: "You...... Is it really my daughter? ”
Zhang Qing'e smiled bitterly and said, "Sometimes, I wish I wasn't my father's daughter, so that I don't have to live with heavy shackles." ”
Hearing Zhang Qing'e say this, Zhang Yuanwai dared to confirm the identity of the person in front of him, and said: "I really didn't expect that you would also have an enlightened day." Your daddy's daughter, daddy naturally wants you to do well. In the past, you were too stubborn, and you only knew that you were holding a relationship that had passed, and you were living a lifeless life, so Daddy was looking for a husband for you. Now that you can think about it, it's naturally good. As long as you are willing to look away and accept others again, Daddy will not go against your will. Okay, I'll leave it to Daddy, you can go back and rest first! ”
"Thank you Daddy for your understanding." Zhang Qing'e bowed and bowed, and then left quietly with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
……
As the carriage jolted, Konishi looked at the stone opposite him resting with his eyes closed, and his lips moved, wanting to say something, but finally swallowed back.
"If there's anything you want to say, just say it."
Shi Shi's eyes were not opened, and he still maintained the posture just now, but as if he had an extra pair of eyes, he controlled Konishi's every move, and said quietly.
When Xiaoxi heard the sound of the stone, he was startled at first, and then thought that the stone was equipped with a stunt, so he sat upright and asked, "Brother Shi, my body has almost recovered, when will you teach me martial arts?" ”
Slowly opening his eyes, Shi smiled indifferently: "Want to learn martial arts? Then I'm going to see what your bottom is. ”
"Bottom?" Konishi rummaged through his pocket, revealing an inexplicable expression.
The corners of his mouth still maintained a perfect arc, and the stone did not say a word, and his hand was as fast as lightning, reaching out to Konishi.
Konishi instinctively dodged to the side, while protecting his head with his hands in fear, begging for mercy: "Don't hit me, don't hit me!" But the voice fell for a long time, and Konishi didn't hear the sound of the stone, so he couldn't help but look up, but saw that the other party was looking at him with a smile, and he couldn't find out the look.
The attitude of the stone made Xiaoxi confused, and he couldn't help tilting his head and asking, "Brother Shi, aren't you beating me?" ”
"Whoever said they were going to hit you, I just wanted to see if you were agile. Now, it looks like it's not bad. From now on, you will first practice the Inner Gong Mental Method. Remember, when practicing, you must have no distractions, and you can't rush for quick success, otherwise you will only get twice the result with half the effort. ”
"Internal Strength?" When Xiaoxi heard that Shi Ken taught him martial arts, he couldn't help but frown, "Isn't that a very powerful martial art?" I'm sure I'll study hard! ”
"No, that's not martial arts, it's just to let you improve your internal strength."
Hearing what the stone said, Xiaoxi couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, and asked, "Then how long will this internal force be practiced?" ”
"It depends on how hard you work." Seeing Xiaoxi's disappointed expression, Shi said soothingly, "In fact, the cultivation of internal force is also extremely important, with it, you may practice martial arts for a year, and it may be thirty percent faster than someone without internal strength." Therefore, don't just look at the immediate results, practicing martial arts is a lifelong thing, laying a good foundation and long-term flow is fundamental. ”
Although the stone was very pertinent, Konishi just nodded carelessly as if he had something on his mind.
"Now that the road is smooth, I can teach you to breathe and meditate. Come, sit down as I did, and keep breathing easy. ”
According to what the stone said, Konishi sat up cross-legged in high spirits, and between breaths and breaths, he was listless.
