Chapter 02 The prologue has been unveiled, and the curtain has opened
"You're the blind masseuse who delivers food every day?" The high-spirited female voice is clear and beautiful, and there is a kind of careful maintenance in the words.
"Exactly down there." The young blind man is not frizzy, but more bookish, and his tone is grateful.
"Okay, then let's talk about the expenses of the year, after all, you can't eat our food for nothing, don't you, this grinding tofu also requires labor, why don't you work in our house?" The woman seemed to be tapping on the abacus, and the sound of the abacus plucking occasionally sounded.
In fact, the woman was also taking care of Qin Xiya's perception, but what she said was not very good.
"It's not impossible." Qin Blind thought for a moment and nodded.
To stay in this world for three years, this is only the first year, it is good to sharpen more martial arts in this frost flag town, he is not a stunned young man, and he also knows what it means to sharpen a knife and not cut wood.
"That's good, my name is Li Lingyu, the bell is my sister, you will call me Li Shopkeeper in the future, after all, in addition to selling tofu, our family is also a small restaurant, and then if there is a chicken and duck slaughter, etc., it will also be handed over to you, three dollars a month, two dollars of silver, two dollars of actual payment, including food and accommodation, open the door at the time of the hour, close at the time of Shen, do not interfere with the time outside of your closing, what do you think?"
"Naturally, too." Qin Xiya still swallowed water like warm water.
"Well, let's sign and draw first, but you can't see it, you can just draw it."
The paper is turned.
Considering that Qin Xiya couldn't see, she pushed the note and the ink clay forward a little, but the blind man had already heard the sound and found the location of the two things.
After the neat painting was postponed, he replied: "Actually, although I can't see, I can still write." โ
"Work that can be done by writing, probably won't hire something that can't be seen." Li Lingyu said regretfully.
"Indeed." Qin Xiya was noncommittal, and then said, "Shopkeeper, please bear with me, slaughter ducks and chickens, I also have to learn it." โ
"It's easy." Li Lingyu just said, before she finished speaking,
The blind man heard a drunken scream.
"Where's the money?!" It sounded like a man, rummaging and smashing, followed by a roar, "Where's the money!" โ
"Get out of here and earn it yourself!" Li Lingyu was not used to it, and scolded sharply, "You don't want to get a penny from me!" โ
"Fuck! Mean woman! Although he was angry, he still walked away.
Then Li Lingyu sighed: "Let you see the smile." โ
"Nothing to laugh at." Qin Xiya got up neatly, "I'll help you grind tofu first." โ
Then he paused and asked, "By the way, what about Bell Girl?" โ
Li Lingyu laughed when she heard this.
"Isn't she always by your side?"
"Jingle bells."
In the crisp bell sound, it seems to be a little shy.
โโ
The knife fell, the chicken blood overflowed, and gradually overflowed the small half bowl, and the chicken in the palm gradually lost its vitality.
After boiling water, a smell of chicken rose, and Qin Xiya plucked chicken feathers.
Disembowel, remove the internal organs, chop the bones into pieces, and start with a sharp hand.
Chicken blood is used to make blood tofu, as for the chicken and chicken offal is used for stir-frying, sometimes it is killed and cannot be used up, and meat can also be opened at night, but it is rare, after all, the business is booming, and there is an endless stream of visitors.
However, for the blind man, the biggest gain is actually the low-level true spirit obtained by killing chickens.
Low-level true spirits are not at the level, and low-level true spirits can be synthesized to obtain D-level true spirits, and over this period of time, the synthesized D-level true spirits have been used to upgrade their own skills.
The true spirits of twenty-five chickens or ducks can be combined into a D-level true spirit, and if they are familiar with the "Eight Duan Brocade", the internal qi in the body will be strengthened by one point, and the control over it will also be improved to a higher level.
He didn't use the other D-level true spirit that was synthesized, because his grandmother once said that he would be prepared for everything.
There is not much fancy effect, and the internal qi of "Baduanjin" is actually just a simple and simple way to strengthen the body, but for the [fast] based reverse hand knife, simple and simple can also be said to be the best match.
Listening to the sound left and right, there was no one else by his side, and after washing his hands a little, he practiced the reverse knife.
After the drill was completed, Qin Xiya sat down and drank water, thinking about it, it was already half a year later.
"It's time to go out..." Thinking so, he took the chicken nuggets and chicken blood to the back kitchen, "But... Also think about how to say goodbye. โ
"It's really neat, by the way, Xiya, there is a table with only two guests, don't talk to them too much, with a knife, it doesn't look like a good person." Li Lingyu praised it, and then reminded.
"I'm provincial." Qin Xiya nodded.
"Here, this plate of chili tofu is what they want, remember, with a knife." Li Lingyu reminded again.
"Don't worry." Qin Xiya took the plate, clicked the ground with a blind cane, and went out without half a bump.
There are not many guests in the lobby, and they gather at their respective tables to drink and eat, chat and relieve boredom.
The blind man shouted: "Sharp pepper tofu, which table is the guest?" โ
"We." A muffled voice rang out from the corner.
"Okay." Qin Xiya followed the sound, and the blind cane touched the scabbard and knocked down the knife leaning on the corner of the table.
[The knife is three feet seven inches long, weighs seven pounds and six taels, and the long knife is ยทยทยท ใ
Just listening to the sound, I heard this knife out of a bit of fame.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Qin Xiya hurriedly apologized.
"It's okay." A deep male voice took over the dish, "It's not easy for you. โ
The other person put the knife back in place, leaned against the corner of the wall, and then said kindly: "It's okay, little brother, you can continue to be busy." โ
Qin Xiya smiled helplessly: "Thank you for your understanding." โ
Doesn't he look like a good person? Isn't that great?
"Oh yes, little brother, we two brothers are in the dust, and we want to find a bathhouse to rub around, do you know where it is?" The man asked again.
"I'm clear of this." Qin Xiya nodded.
"Then do you know where the secret prostitutes in Frost Banner Town are?" Another asked.
"I really don't know." Qin Xiya shook his head.
โโ
"See you again, little brother." I could tell it was the swordsman who had been touched by himself.
"It's a coincidence, and I asked the guest officer to lift his feet." Qin Xiya said gently, he had already touched the swordsman's one-legged,
Control the position with your left hand, raise the middle knuckle of your right hand, and then lower your hand with full force.
"I'm grass! Refreshing! An extremely refreshing burst of sound rang out in the lobby of the bathhouse.
"Brother Xiao Qin's craftsmanship is the second in the world, and it is estimated that no one can say the first, although it hurts, it is comfortable, and the pain is only the first mile." The guest on the side quipped, and added another sentence quite urgently, "It's the same as the big girl who got on the sedan chair." โ
"Old prostitute, do you want to teach Brother Xiao Qin badly again? He is thin-skinned and young, if his anger is vented to the Qinglou, aren't you afraid that the bell girl will stare at you? The other guests laughed and cursed.
"What are you afraid of, he can go to the bell hahahaha."
Qin Xiya had a cold face and didn't reply, just focusing on the kung fu in his hands.
The swordsman enjoyed it, and then realized that something was wrong.
"Something is wrong, why is my internal qi so active?"
The swordsman carefully perceived, but found that the internal qi gathered at the root of the acupoints on the soles of the feet, and then fed back to itself.
Yongquan, Taibai, and the three solar acupuncture points of the servant ginseng seem to be three-legged, but they steadily constitute a whole, and the internal qi circulates in this and then penetrates into the surrounding acupoints, and the other acupuncture points are used as the base nodes to form a tripod whole, and the true qi is vaguely dominated by the feet, and marches towards other acupuncture points around the body.
The internal qi is active and breeds, and it is also nourishing the dark wounds left in the body.
In the early years, the knife man was stabbed in the arm, and since then, he has been in a lot of pain every rainy weather, but now his whole body is warm, as comfortable as drinking a bowl of hot soup in three or nine days, and even the old wound and hidden pain will not recur, and it has improved a lot.
"Absolutely, little brother, where did you learn this craft?" The swordsman couldn't help but ask.
"Oriental New Yucai Training Center School for the Blind." Qin Xiya replied bluntly.
"Huh?" The swordsman was stunned, but a strong and refreshing feeling burst out from the soles of his feet and went straight to the heavenly spirit.
It was the outbreak of the moment triggered by the thick accumulation in the early stage, and the acupoints around the body were already connected, and the internal qi was surging to break through the blockage, and the Zhou Tian cycle was self-contained.
The internal qi is constantly impacting and surging, rotating in this cycle, and also flowing through the mud pill heavenly spirit, turning through the hundreds of veins around the body,
Extreme comfort is linked one by one, and a wave is even more coming.
Until the end.
"Cool!"
The swordsman's body was full of muscles and bones, refreshed, and comfortable, as if the upper limit of life had been added a little more time.
"Good craftsmanship!" The swordsman praised from the bottom of his heart, and after the comfort, he was still reminiscing,
The blind man fumbled for tools again to prepare for a pedicure.
The swordsman took out the silver, pulled Qin Xiya's hand, and put it in the palm of his hand.
"Guest, what are you?" Qin Xiya was puzzled.
"You take these three coins of silver, if I can't only take out three coins, otherwise I will give you more, your craft is definitely more than these three coins, have you ever considered leaving this isolated town and going to Luojing to develop?"
"It's early, it's early." Qin Xiya was polite, and then asked, "But why did you come to Frost Banner Town, guest officer?" Pass by? โ
The swordsman was silent, and then replied, "Seek revenge." โ
"I see." Qin Xiya didn't say anything more.
When it was over, Qin Xiya was carrying a small wooden box and was about to leave, but the swordsman stopped Qin Xiya.
"Little brother, I want to inquire, have you ever heard of a person named [Cheng Bing]? He was also blind. โ
Qin Xiya paused, but he still opened his mouth sincerely.
"He's my master."
The swordsman also paused.
โโ
"Cheng Bing is dead?" The swordsman looked at the simple tomb and asked Qin Xiya.
"Sick and dead." Qin Xiya stood behind the swordsman with a blind cane, and stopped talking.
The swordsman saw Qin Xiya's thoughts and opened his mouth: "Don't worry, Cheng Bing is a good person, unlike other knife catchers, Cheng Bing is a good person,
I sought revenge on Cheng Bing because he killed my father,
My father is not a good person, but he is a good father, since Cheng Bing is dead, it seems that this hatred..."
The swordsman said, and Qin Xiya also relieved his heart.
But it's so close,
"Choking" is sonorous, and the knife is out of the sheath.
But a touch of silver shines faster.
The backhand knife came out, and the staff knife had already resisted the blade.
"This revenge, the father's revenge and the son's revenge, the teacher's debt will be repaid in vain!" The swordsman slashed down with all his might.
The blades collided, and Qin Xiya took two steps back, taking retreat as the force of advance and unloading.
The wind was howling, and he heard the roar of the wind.
The yellow leaves fall, and in an instant they are divided into two,
It turned out that the swordsman was aggressive and chased after him.
The backhand knife was cut out, from the bottom to the top, and the fallen leaves turned into four in an instant.
It's just that the backhand just opened the knife,
The blind man approached and stuck in front of the swordsman,
In the midst of the lightning and fire, the backhand knife was mentioned again and again, and the blade of the staff blade had been attached to the wrist of the knife holder, but it did not go further.
The scabbard of the cane also pressed against the throat of the swordman,
With a slight force, the scabbard sank into the flesh depression.
The swordsman didn't dare to come out, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
The handle of the cane slowly fell from the wrist, and the scabbard of the blind cane was also removed.
Retract the knife and return it to the sheath.
Qin Xiya left reflexively with a blind cane, never looking back, and his voice was not loud or small.
"Flowers have a re-blooming day, no one is young, and the guest officer is good for himself."
The swordsman sighed, smiled bitterly, and also took the knife and followed behind Qin Xiya.
The two of them went down the mountain,
The ruined temple is also getting smaller and smaller.
The next day, Qin Xiya opened the door and swept with a blind cane.
Then there were two more footsteps, and they slowly stopped.
"Little brother, thank you for not killing." The man thanked him sincerely.
"You and I have no grudges, so there is no need to create and kill in vain." Qin Xiya spoke indifferently.
"It's not necessary, it's not necessary, but if you think about it, you can't tell." The swordsman replied, "Since Cheng Bing is dead, and I am not dead, then the grudges of this previous generation will be gone, and in order to thank your subordinates for their mercy, please accept this sword book.
This is a family heirloom knife book, but our brothers are talented and blunt, and they can't learn if they can't understand it, so it's better to be a favor to you, I can see that you won't nest in this small place, maybe you need this knife book more than our brothers. โ
Qin Xiya took it.
"I can't see it."
"If you have the heart, you can always 'see' it."
โยทยทยท Excuse me, what is the name of this knife book? โ
"The Harmony Knife Chapter."
"Thank you, I really need more martial arts to help me." Qin Xiya was not pretentious.
He knew that the mundane routine of Frost Banner couldn't erase his Walker mission.
Gossiping, the brothers rode out of town.
Facing the sun, come in a hurry, go in a hurry.
There are two less uninvited guests in Frost Banner Town, but no one knows if there will be so many uninvited guests tomorrow.
or for a short stay, or for revenge,
But the sun always rises as usual.
ยทยทยท
It was night, it was quiet, all the sounds were silent, half of the packed firewood room was firewood, half of the furniture and beds were made, and there was no need to light the lamp, Qin Xiya touched the handwriting in the knife score with two fingers.
Stop for a moment, then slide again, and so on.
It is true that he can't see, but with the help of the five senses of his vision, his ears, nose, tongue, body, and mind in addition to his vision have also undergone a distinct qualitative change under the continuous and subtle strengthening of the daily life.
You can't see it, but you can hear it, you can smell it, you can feel it.
Even if you can't see it, you can get feedback by touching.
A thin book of knife books, it doesn't take much time to read through, but the sentences are quite mysterious.
It seems that "there is feng shui between heaven and earth, and there is also qi in a small world of the human body. Although the knife is a foreign object, it can also be pulled by the air machine like an arm command... and so on.
The whole text is more like theory than knife technique, but as we all know, theory requires practice,
But if you can't even enter the door, how can you practice it?
[You are studying "Japanese Knife Chapter"... You understand it, but you don't learn it. ใ
Qin Xiya knew that he was not a martial arts genius, so it was expected and reasonable that he did not learn, but he would still be a little frustrated.
"Let's watch it tomorrow night." The blind man thought and closed the book.
After putting down the knife spectrum, Qin Xiya slept with his clothes.
At night, there was a stumbling footstep, and the sound of struggle was whispering.
Qin Xiya suddenly got up from his sleep and picked up the blind cane.
The door slammed, and some people ran wildly.
Breaking out of the door, Qin Xiya shouted.
"Shopkeeper! Bell! โ
There was no response, and there was no familiar "jingle bell".
So he chased him out.
The sounds, smells are still within the range of the catch.
If you hurry up, you might be able to catch up.
He thought to himself.
But even though it's night, there are still night cats and wild dogs chasing after each other, and if you want to identify the smell, you have to choose from countless smells one by one.
The blind man eventually lost his bearings.
Qin Xiya took a deep breath and began to think.
Li Lingyu and Li Lingdang have always been kind and charitable on weekdays, and they are kind to others, and it is impossible to make enemies with others.
But if he says that it is lust, it is difficult to say, because he does not see,
With a light sniff, he also discerned many smells one by one, and finally recognized a slight smell of wine.
The taste of wine is familiar, but it is not the favorite bite of Cheng Blind, but the most low-end and cheap type of wine in the town.
He already had a direction in mind.
With a blind cane, snapping.
A little cold fell, and it was immediately melted by the body temperature.
It's snowing.
