Chapter 18: Night Watch (1)

Although the conditions for students to enter the outer courtyard are strict, there are still many benefits after entering.

It's the same as Zhao Tieshan said: when you catch fast, take the moon, sleep in a big tile house, build a cotton mattress, have new clothes to wear, and have advanced kung fu learning.

Xu Shan took off his soaked clothes, put them on the shelf, and changed into a newly-collared martial arts uniform embroidered with red edges on a black background.

The trouser legs of the martial arts uniform are slightly wider, the fabric is very tough, which is very suitable for movement, and the waist of the blouse is quite tight, which is quite comfortable to wear, and there are some small pockets sewn on the inside of the blouse, with a row of hidden buttons, which is very suitable for loading things.

Xu Shan hid the hairpin and broken silver, sorted it out a little in front of the bronze mirror, and went out with an umbrella, trotting all the way to meet Tianquan.

The two of them each held an umbrella and walked on the uninhabited bluestone path, with towering pine trees on both sides, drizzling rain and breeze, full of antiquity.

"Senior brother, what about the other senior brothers?"

"Either in the county government or in the outer courtyard, I only come back every day, and I don't come back occasionally."

"Senior brother, are the other senior brothers who live here also the king's boss?"

"No, now among the disciples of the Boiling Blood Realm in the outer courtyard, there are only you and my senior brothers."

"Senior brother, do we have a library here?"

"The library is in the southeast corner, and you can enter it by turning around and holding the entry and exit certificate."

"Senior brother, I see that there is a stove in the dormitory, do we need to cook the food by ourselves?"

"Ordinary meals naturally have specially invited cooks, but it is best for the junior brother to go to the city to make a good pot in the iron shop, and the foreign beast meat received every month is best stewed and eaten by himself, the foreign beast meat is valuable, don't go through the hands of others."

"I made a note of it! Senior brother, in the future, I should be like other senior brothers, running back and forth between the outer courtyard and the county office, right? ”

"If you are a fast catcher, you will naturally have to go to the county government as an errand, as for the outer courtyard, you don't have to go to it usually, the teaching there is like Wu Shan, and it is just an open bone realm, teaching some little guys who have not yet boiled blood, usually you can go back here, Wang Touer also explained to his brother in the letter, and he can teach you for his brother. However, on the first and fifteenth days of each month, you must go to the outer courtyard, and in those two days, Zhao Zhenren, the dean of the martial academy, will personally teach the new disciples martial arts, which is a benefit that only the disciples of the Boiling Blood Realm who have just been admitted to the academy for a year can enjoy, and they can't miss it. ”

"I made a note of it! Senior brother, how strong is a real person? ”

"Very strong, very strong...... Senior brother, don't be ambitious, at the moment, you still need to be skilled in three knives to protect yourself from being injured during the night patrol, so that if there is no accident, you can open your bones in a year. ”

"Senior brother, I don't know much about open bones, and I have to bother my brother to solve my doubts."

"After cultivating the "Great True Body Refining Technique", the strength of the body will infiltrate into the bones little by little, so that over the years, a unique strength will be formed to run Zhou Tian, and after that, the bone strength will naturally breed, diverging from the inside out, and it can also be collected and released invisibly and unintentionally, completely isolating the evil qi from the body, which can not only defend oneself, but also hurt the enemy, which is the opening of the bones."

"I see! That brother, ......"

Tian Quan's temper is really good, no matter what questions Xu Shan asks, he answers them patiently, thanks to his blessing, Xu Shan, who was originally blank about martial arts, now finally has a bit of a martial arts entry.

The dining hall of 'Xuanyi' is located in the partial courtyard in the northwest corner, which is quite far away from Xu Shan's 'Ding Er'.

He followed Tian Quan and walked in and took a quick look around.

This dining hall was a little smaller than the one in the county office, with only seven or eight round tables, each with chairs next to it, and the smell of food wafting out from behind the curtains.

Tian Quan found a table and sat down, shouted behind the curtain, "Steward Liu, let's serve the food." ”

Xu Shan sat on his right hand to avoid eating a bowl of blood.

Two men and a woman in their forties, wearing aprons around their waists, walked out quickly, each holding a red plate with a square wood jujube in their hands, one plate with the fragrance of stewed meat, and two small basins on the other.

It's a real clay pot, and it just fills the plate.

Under Xu Shan's stunned gaze, the two set up the vegetable basins, hurried back to the kitchen, and came out with a few more plates and bowls.

Sauce elbow, stewed fish, stewed chicken, green vegetables, corn, two large pots of rice...... The food in the dining hall is quite abundant! Better than what he eats in his own home!

Tian Quan rolled up his sleeves slowly, and said happily: "Senior brother, eat more, otherwise the more you practice, the more you will lose your qi and blood." ”

Xu Shan looked at the pot of rice in front of him with some embarrassment.

"Senior brother, you need to remember that you can maintain your demeanor at all times, but not when you eat, the food is the greatest reward for us, we must eat happily, eat to the fullest, and learn the ...... of the dolphin arch."

This metaphor is very wonderful, Xu Shan responded vaguely and began to move his chopsticks.

Almost an hour later, he hiccuped, followed by Senior Brother Tian, and left the dining hall.

The table was empty, and only a pile of broken bones remained.

Out of the dining hall, Senior Brother Tian waved at him and went south by himself.

Xu Shan retracted his gaze, held an umbrella and walked back the way he came, walked slowly all the way, returned to his room, sat on the chair for a while, picked up the long knife, went out to the school field, and continued to practice those two moves.

He still couldn't feel the feeling of the third trick "burning".

And the first two knife moves make it very stiff.

It's not okay to practice too much.

The afternoon rain gradually stopped, but the sky did not clear, it was still overcast and a cool breeze was blowing.

An autumn rain and a cold seem to be the same no matter where you are.

Xu Shan sweated like rain, his hands holding the knife were wrapped in a thin layer of cloth, the calluses on his hands were worn out, and the tiger's mouth and palms were hot and painful.

This layer of white cloth was asked by Senior Brother Tian to wrap it, but it should not be wrapped too much, so as not to affect the feel of holding the knife.

This whole afternoon has passed in such an ordinary way.

At the time of unitary, night falls.

Outside the dining hall, Senior Brother Tian instructed Xu Shan: "Go back to the room to rest for two hours first, and come to the gate to gather at the time of the day, remember to bring healing medicine." ”

Xu Shan kept nodding and holding a large number of small bottles in his arms.

These healing medicines were all given to him by Senior Brother Tian just now, some are detoxifying, some are hemostasis, and some are hanging......

Senior Brother Tian turned around and left.

Xu Shan didn't stay, hurried back to his room, closed the door, first stuffed the large pile of bottles and cans into the pockets of his clothes, re-smeared the medicine on his two hands, and re-wrapped the cloth.

He sat in the dark, looking at the long knife in his hand, and his heart was a little unsure.

I practiced the sword technique for a day today, but in terms of effect, it should be at most the level of "proficiency", and it is estimated that this is why Senior Brother Tian gave him so many medicine jars.

He got up, paced around the room, was silent for a while, went to the courtyard to fetch a bucket of water, went back to the room, took off his clothes and shoes, washed up a little, and then lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and calmed down.

Isn't it the Night Watch? Come on! I'm not the same person I was yesterday!
