Chapter 54: Rat Treasure

Dai Yue didn't react to anything at first, and waited for the wind to chill her neck, then she touched the back of her head and found that her long hair had been cut into a short hair just past her ears, her eyes were red, and she was about to cry again.

Zhongli raised his sword and said, "Don't cry, cry again and shave the rest of your hair, so that you can be a bald pig." ”

Dai Yue grinned, but she didn't dare to cry, her body twitched, and her voice became one after another: "You, what, shave me, hair." ”

"Do you want to see my swordsmanship in vain? There is no free lunch in the world, and if you see my sword, you will naturally have to pay the price. I also gave you a discount, and if you change it to someone else, you will lose not your hair, but your head. ”

Zhongli retracted his sword from his waist.

Dai Yue stomped her feet again, bit her lip again, and vented herself for a while, her body finally stopped pumping, and her voice was still very aggrieved: "If you pay the price, can't I say it first? I've had my hair for more than ten years, and you're all gone. ”

"If the price is set by you, won't I be a dog?" Zhongli walked forward again, "Miss Dai Yue, this is a river and lake that no one can take care of, not your home. Your father and mother spoil you and let you be willful, your servants are afraid of you and let you command, and outsiders have to cling to your father to please you. ”

Dai Yue followed closely: "But you also have to be reasonable." ”

Zhong Li's hand pressed on the hilt of the sword again: "The camel is the least reasonable, if you have to reason with the camel, then this sword is the truth." ”

Dai Yue felt more and more that this person was unreasonable, and he couldn't make sense of anything, so he simply didn't say a word and stopped talking.

The two walked for a long time in the moonlit wilderness, then returned to the hill, reached the peak, and entered the dilapidated thatched hut.

Zhongli picked up the fire sickle from a small table and lit an old oil lamp. Through the dim light, Dai Yue found that the grass hut seemed to have just been cleaned, there was not much dust, and the furnishings inside were simple, with a table, two chairs, and two wooden beds, one large and one small. The bed was covered with a layer of withered grass, and it looked like it had just been replaced. There are two wooden bowls and two bamboo cups on the table, which look like oil lamps for some years, and only two pairs of chopsticks look freshly cut.

"Is this his home? There are two beds, who else did he live in? Is there a man in the grave outside? Is that man or woman? If it is a woman, is it his mother or his wife?"

Many thoughts came out of his mind, but Dai Yue didn't dare to say it and ask, for fear that one of the words would annoy the camel and kill him with a sword.

"You sleep on that. ”

Zhongli gestured to the larger bed.

Dai Yue lay down on the bed. The withered grass wasn't as prickly as expected, but the bed was still a little panicked. Although the wooden sleeper has been rubbed, it still smells musty. I couldn't help but have a sour nose, and I wanted to cry: When I was at home, I never slept in such a place?

But after thinking about it, compared to the outside curtain, at least there is no snake and insect invasion here, and if it is the camel's home, the camel should not kill people at home, and it is always a lot safer.

Dai Yue's heart finally stabilized a lot, covered her empty stomach, and gradually fell asleep.

When she woke up the next day, Dai Yue smelled a long-lost fragrance, got up and looked, only to see a wooden bowl on the table filled with meat, and a cup full of water.

I don't know what kind of meat it is, it's not big, but it's delicious, you can't taste it at all, the skin is very elastic, and the taste is similar to that of meat jelly.

Devouring half a bowl of meat, her mouth was a little salty and thirsty, Dai Yue picked up the cup again, and drank all the water in it, which was really sweeter and cooler than any water she had usually drunk.

At this time, Dai Yue heard the wind outside, and pushed open the door with a meat bowl, only to see Zhongli dancing with a sword.

When I see him on weekdays, most of them are limp walking, and with the body of a rickety and curved camel, there is no sense of beauty. However, what caught Dai Yue's eyes at this moment was an extraordinarily light and agile figure. As soon as the toes hit the ground, the whole person can rise into the air like wings, and then with a dive, he will step out a distance of three feet; the body of the crooked camel no longer reminds people of a camel, it is almost like a fierce tiger that bows up; the curved sword rises and falls with the person, like a flying snake; every time he moves and turns, shifts his shape, and changes his position, there is no stagnation, and when it is almost to the extreme, people can only see the afterimage, and there is no trace of coming and going.

"Good swordsmanship, good body skills. ”

Dai Yue couldn't help but say.

Zhongli suddenly stopped his body, also stopped his sword, turned around slowly, and said, "I said, the camel doesn't need anyone to flatter. ”

"I'm not flattering, I'm really thinking it's good. ”

"Miss Dai Yue was born in Xuanhe, and she should have seen a lot of capable people, and there is no shortage of military masters. How did the camel's martial arts get into your eyes?"

"You're not like them. Most of those people pay attention to what iron horse hard bridge, the lower plate is stable, the upper plate is solid, the gun pierces a line, the sword sweeps a fan, and what strange names are given for a move and a style, and when the competition is made, it is ugly and ugly. ”

Zhongli put away his sword and returned to his waist: "You have some vision." ”

Dai Yue asked, "What is the name of your swordsmanship and body technique?"

"Names?" Zhongli paused, "They don't have names. Perhaps, but I don't know. ”

"Then I'll give you a start. Every move must have a name. ”

"No, you don't. ”

"Why not? You practice it slowly, can I name your moves?

Zhongli hesitated for a few moments before nodding, "Okay." ”

The blade rose again, and with Zhongli's footsteps, it drew a strange arc in the air. Zhongli glanced back at Dai Yue and said, "This is the sword that shaved off your hair." ”

Dai Yue said: "Then this trick is called 'camel shaving head'." ”

Zhongli raised his eyebrows: "The way you name this is strange, it's much better than those who pretend to be elegant." When I went to the Golden Dao Gate in Yunzhou, what kind of 'golden knife appeared' did the disciples there use on me, didn't they just draw the knife and slash at it? From the shoulder to the elbow to the wrist to the knife, I could see every trajectory clearly, and I almost laughed out of my big teeth. ”

Then he swung another sword, his body soared into the air, and the blade stabbed four or five times in the air towards the same position.

Dai Yue thought for a moment and said, "This trick is called 'woodpecker'." ”

Zhongli nodded: "It's very apt - what about the next move?" Jumping into the air, his waist twisted, and there was a large whirlwind, and the blade of the sword moved up and down, up and down, like waves.

"Dragons bite!"

Dai Yue blurted out.

"And what about this trick?"

Zhongli took a step forward and stabbed out an extremely fast straight sword.

Dai Yue shouted: "This is 'hungry wolf pounces on fat sheep'!"

"So what?"

Zhongli's arms and elbows didn't move, only his wrists oscillated from side to side, and the serpentine sword slashed quickly in front of him, pumping the air into a burst.

Dai Yue said without thinking: "The rattlesnake flicks the snake tail!"

Zhongli was amazed, he had seen a lot of Qimen martial arts over the years, and he had never heard of such a strange move name, it sounded very grotesque at first glance, but when he thought about it, the image was prominent, and the characteristics were obvious. Immediately, he danced several swordsmanship in a row.

Every time Dai Yue saw a move, she shouted: "The little dog protects the bones!" "The big cat bites the little mouse!" "The chopsticks insert the rice!" "The spoon scoops up the soup and spills it out!" "The rooster goes up the tree!" "The bat hangs upside down!" "The frog sticks out its tongue!" "The little mouse rides the big cow!" "This looks good, it's better to call it ......"

Zhongli danced the sword for a while, and understood it: this Miss Dai Yue not only doesn't know martial arts, but also doesn't know poetry and books, it is estimated that she has memorized some poems, and the already pitiful ink can't be squeezed out, so she has to use the small animals or other things she has seen to add an action, and then match it with another object, which is the name of a move.

After a few more moves, Dai Yue's tongue seemed to be knotted, and she only opened her mouth, but she couldn't speak. Zhongli stopped his movements and asked, "Why is it not famous?" Dai Yue grinded the ground with her toes and said, "My head is tired, and my inspiration is temporarily exhausted, so I can't think of it." ”

Zhongli glanced at the wooden bowl in her hand and said, "This is the food I prepared for myself, but you ate it." ”

Dai Yue was frightened: "Ah, I'm sorry, I don't know ......"

Zhong Li waved his hand: "No need to apologize, you eat it, the game on this mountain is not difficult to beat, but I can't think of it, you even eat this thing." ”

Dai Yue was curious: "What is this?"

Zhongli put his hand into the bowl and lifted a long, thin tail: "When I was cleaning up the house yesterday, I found a big wild mouse, so I slaughtered and skinned it, dug a pit behind the house, burned some charcoal, and wrapped it in yellow mud and simmered it all night. I just put it in the bowl this morning, and I haven't had time to eat it yet. What, does this wild mouse taste good?"
