Chapter 41: A Test of Understanding
Brother Cheng sighed and said, "You can see it!" What else? Poisoned by a poisonous woman! ”
Xiao Dongshan sighed, and thought secretly: "No wonder his face is blue, he can't see ...... himself"
The two sat cross-legged opposite each other. Xiao Dongshan asked, "When did Brother Cheng suffer this catastrophe?" Brother Cheng said coldly: "You have to know what to do!" Xiao Dongshan said: "The little brother is just curious about what poison is so strong, and it won't be effective for so long." Brother Cheng sneered: "What's so difficult about this, the food and water are poisonous every day." Xiao Dongshan was taken aback and said, "Then you still eat and drink?" Brother Cheng smiled bitterly: "Isn't it dead if I don't eat or drink?" It's better to be poisoned than to die. Xiao Dongshan asked again: "Big brother, do you see that my face is blue?" Brother Cheng said: "Your beard is long and hard, covering half of your face...... But it's not blue. Hum! Thou art lowly in your skills, and thou shalt poison thou shalt do so! Do you think it's easy to make drugs? It's not worth it to waste on you. He shook his head again and again, rather disdainful.
Xiao Dongshan was not angry, but felt that Brother Cheng's words were reasonable, and complimented: "Brother Cheng's kung fu is amazing, the martial arts he used just now are wonderful and weird, it doesn't seem to be the Central Plains martial arts?" Brother Cheng said: "I was taught by a senior in the Western Regions more than ten years ago, and I haven't done it for many years, so I'm a little rusty. Xiao Dongshan asked again: "If Brother Cheng's internal strength recovers, how sure are you that he can defeat the scarface woman and the old woman?" Brother Cheng's face showed brilliance, and said: "The old poisonous woman's martial arts are not bad, but she is old and frail, but her martial arts are fierce, no matter how strong she is, she can't fight with me for a long time, as for the scar-faced girl, hum, she hasn't fought with me, but I can also see that I can subdue her within three moves at least and seven moves at most." When Xiao Dongshan heard this, he didn't think so, and said secretly: "Subdue this scar-faced woman within seven moves?" I'm afraid you have to have the same kung fu as Yao Zhongtian! This person despises the scar-faced woman a little, he has never seen her standing alone in Qingcheng in the Four Peerless Sword Formation, how do you know how powerful she is! Brother Cheng continued: "It's just that their poison is too powerful, and they accidentally catch the way, difficult, difficult!" ”
The two were silent for a while, and Brother Cheng said, "You said that the old woman took a fancy to you and wanted to take you as an apprentice, how did she take a fancy to you?" Xiao Dongshan said: "Said that he would look at what bone physiognomy me, and stunned me, stabbed me on the thigh for a while, said that it was to take the marrow, and then it forced me, hey, ......" When Brother Cheng heard him say that the marrow was taken from the thigh, his face changed slightly, and said: "I see." Xiao Dongshan noticed his expression and said, "Brother Cheng was also taken from the marrow?" Brother Cheng didn't answer, but suddenly stood up and said, "How do I know that you weren't sent by the old poisonous woman to earn me!" ”
Xiao Dongshan was taken aback, then stood up, and said, "This, this, what do you earn!" Brother Cheng said: "Who knows what tricks you have to plot to kill my miserable people!" Come on, come on, explain quickly! Xiao Dongshan saw that his face was fierce, and he would pounce and hurt people at any time, although his internal strength was extremely weak, but his moves were too superb to beat himself, he was a little scared, and said: "Big brother, it's good, what are you impatient!" I really wasn't sent by the old drug woman to earn you, you see, if she sent it, and still call her the old drug woman? After saying that, I didn't feel that I could convince people, if it was really sent by the old woman, why not call the old poisonous woman?
Brother Cheng said: "I don't know the bones, but I have a way to know if you were sent by the old poisonous woman!" Look at it. As he spoke, he took a step back, stood with his legs at shoulder level, pointed to the sky with his left hand and the ground with his right, and made a strange gesture. He continued: "This set of boxing is called Liuqi Boxing, which is the martial arts of the Western Regions, which is very different from the martial arts of the Central Plains, and has nothing to do with the foundation of martial arts. Xiao Dongshan was secretly amused, and said in his heart: "You don't know how fast I learn martial arts, you can think of such a stupid way." He promised, "Good! ”
Brother Cheng said: "I have used it once with you just now, and now it is the second time, you listen well!" Xiao Dongshan said: "Hey, how can it be counted like this, it's only the first time now, okay?" Brother Cheng ignored him, and continued: "The so-called Liuqi Boxing means that there are six changes in each punch, which can become two kinds of boxing, two palms, and two claws, just like walking at the intersection, there are six Qi roads in front of you, you look at it, after the starting style, like this, pull and hang, at this time there are six Qi, such the first Qi, such a second Qi......" He slowly demonstrated in his hand, explained in his mouth, Xiao Dongshan did not dare to fight again This is the first or second time, concentrate, while following the comparison, while silently, Carefully understand the advantages and disadvantages of various changes.
The two were busy for more than an hour, and finally finished teaching a set of Liuqi boxing. After Xiao Dongshan finished studying, he stood by the wall and slowly reminisced, and Brother Cheng didn't bother him, standing on the side and watching him. After a while, Xiao Dongshan said, "Okay, you teach it a second time." Brother Cheng said: "This is the third time!" As he spoke, he began to talk about it from the beginning. This time he spoke much faster, Xiao Dongshan couldn't help interrupting him and asking him what he was puzzled about, Brother Cheng listened to the question he asked, knowing that he understood very deeply, and his face showed surprise. It took another hour, and the two of them learned a set of Liuqi boxing again.
Brother Cheng said: "Let's try!" As he spoke, he hit with a punch, and it was a punch in the Liuqi fist that turned into a palm to hit Xiao Dongshan's left shoulder, and Xiao Dongshan's mind flashed with various strain methods, and he responded with a straight punch. The two of them dismantled the moves like this, and they came and went for another half an hour, Xiao Dongshan's moves were still a little rusty at first, but gradually became more and more skillful, and slowly became two percent offensive.
Brother Cheng suddenly shouted: "Stop! He took a step back, hugged his chest with his left hand and put his right hand on his cheek, as if he had thought about something. Xiao Dongshan said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, you taught me this set of boxing techniques, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to beat me again?" Brother Cheng said: "This set of boxing techniques is just a good test of your understanding and qualifications, if you want to say that you are facing the enemy, this set of boxing methods is not first-class, so why teach you." Xiao Dongshan thought secretly: "This person likes to brag a little." He said: "Brother Cheng, do you think I have learned, this understanding and qualification can make the old poisonous woman not look away?" Brother Cheng said: "It's not just that you haven't lost your eyes, it's just a big luck!" When I first learned this set of boxing, I learned it at dawn in the morning, and it would be dark, and I was not as skilled as you, and the predecessor of the Western Regions also praised me for learning martial arts quickly, which is rare in the world, but I didn't expect that you were much faster than me! Awesome! It's a pity! ”
Xiao Dongshan was overjoyed in his heart, and said, "What is a pity? Brother Cheng said: "It's a pity that you can't escape, most of you have to die here, it's a pity!" ”
It was not early at this time, and both of them were grunting hungrily. Xiao Dongshan walked to the rice bowl and water bowl, suddenly picked it up, and fell all down the cliff at once! He put down the empty bowl and said, "Brother Cheng, this rice is poisonous, don't eat it anymore, I'll go get mine, and I'll share the food between the two of you!" When Brother Cheng heard this, he nodded again and again.
Xiao Dongshan climbed back to his stone room, took the rice plate, climbed back to the next door, he held the plate in one hand, climbed with the other, although it was much slower, but he could still make the trip, took the rice bowl, and came back to get the water bowl, and then when he entered the next door, Brother Cheng was a little moved, and said: "Brother has worked hard!" Xiao Dongshan said: "Brother Cheng, your and my lives are closely related, why bother talking about trivial matters?" Brother Cheng nodded silently.
The two sat down, Xiao Dongshan picked up the chopsticks, swiped them in the leftovers, divided them into two parts, handed the chopsticks to Brother Cheng, and said, "Brother Cheng, you eat first, don't use the original chopsticks, use mine." Brother Cheng didn't answer, and said: "Brother, this is your food, it's already a great favor to give it to me, how can I eat first, what is this!" There is no reason for this! If you don't eat first, I won't eat! Xiao Dongshan stopped pushing, picked up the chopsticks, and ate half of it. Brother Cheng said: "Brother eat more, I have a small amount of food." Xiao Dongshan didn't eat much, just half of it, so he handed it to Brother Cheng and said, "One and a half, don't say much." Brother Cheng took it and ate it. The two drank water again.
