Chapter 10: Chopping Wood
There are not too many trees on the gourd waist island, there are fewer bird calls, there are occasional pheasants and ducks, between the rocks and fertile soil, wild grasses and wild flowers are everywhere, so there is still a noise of insects, and scattered frog talk, jumping in the grass, causing dew to fly, and the air is mixed with the fragrance of damp earth.
All this can still awaken the fun of people chasing, especially a girl who is not deeply involved in the world, a home-based girl who does not leave home, and has a strong interest in nature.
Young people don't know how to be tired, girls sleep, generally very light, those with high merit, a nap is equivalent to a long time, attracted by the free air, Xi Ting was the first to wake up, puffed out her nostrils and took a deep breath, and she was intoxicated before she opened her eyes.
Enjoying the smell of the earth, he stretched his waist, then got up and walked to the entrance of the cave, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and muttered: "Uncle Leopard, I'm hungry, see if there are any wild fruits or something, I don't want to eat gas." ”
"Okay, I'll go see if there are any wild fruits. ”
Before he could open his eyes, he nodded, Li Bao also woke up, only to find that there was a stranger sleeping opposite, I didn't even notice this night, I can dream of a snake catcher, not to be underestimated, this person must be strong in martial arts, fortunately, he holds the snake tail in his hand, when both sides have not figured out the identity of the other party, this person, should be a friend not an enemy, as long as he remains a stranger, he should have no malice Maybe he can borrow a bowl of snake soup.
Just when Li Bao hadn't figured it out, Xi Ting suddenly shouted: "Ah--there is a snake, you are not Uncle Leopard." ”
The young man was also awakened at once, and hurriedly sat up, and shouted inexplicably: "Ah--who are you?" ”
Seeing the young man get up, Xi Ting shouted even more: "Ah--there is a man, Zhen Niang is coming, my veil is coming." As he spoke, he quickly covered his face with his hands and shook his head and stomped his feet.
Qin Zhenzhen ran over in a panic, and hurriedly comforted her when she saw this scene: "Ah, there is no Ting'er, there is no veil without Ting'er, don't be afraid, it's okay to have Zhenniang here." ”
Concubine Shan Xun also ran to the front: "That's it, Ting'er girl, don't be afraid, don't you want to walk the end of the world, what does it mean to face the rivers and lakes with a veil, in the face of all these people in the world, you have to adapt sooner or later, take your hands down." ”
Li Bao also nodded: "That's right, Miss, this person has no malice to watch the door and catch snakes for us." ”
Xi Ting eased her mind and nodded slightly: "It seems that yes, I have left the art workshop for everything, and it seems that I have to face it." ”
Qin Zhenzhen also encouraged: "Yes, Ting'er, it is to take down the hand in the face of everything." ”
Xi Ting's heart was crossed, and she finally removed the cover-up, and looked down at the young man angrily: "Who are you and why did you come here to peek." ”
It was the turn of the stunned young man to exclaim, "Ah--so beautiful, are you a fairy?" ”
Xi Ting shyly hurriedly turned to Qin Zhenzhen: "Ah, Zhenniang, what should he do if he sees it." ”
Shan Xunfei smiled: "Hahaha, see it, he is saying that you are beautiful, this stupid boy is not bad, our Ting'er's appearance, there will be many such compliments in the future, girl, you have to adapt as soon as possible." ”
Although Xi Ting was born as a dancer, there are few occasions for the wind and moon, she has always been pampered and raised, and she rarely meets guests, even if she has, she is a righteous gentleman and a talented gentleman who entertains her, and people who go to Hongwulou will also pay attention to proportion, they all know that this is a club with a background, although most people don't know who the background is, there must be a lot of origin, even the government is polite.
That is, four years ago, I tried to use Xi Ting Xi Rui, and I had to learn how to run the affairs of the art workshop, that is, at that time, what kind of guests had encountered, and it was only three months before I thought there was a mess, not to mention that Xi Rui had no news, some people said that he was buried in the fire, and some people said that he was eloped and ran away with strangers.
Since then, Xi Ting has rarely been allowed to meet guests, mainly to practice and learn skills first, and when you find Liu Tianxue, you will serve your husband and children at home, don't want this art workshop.
Therefore, Xi Ting, is the kind of lady show in the past, and the princess who lives in the fairy tale world now, has never seen intrigue and deceit, has never suffered losses and been deceived, martial arts are just exercises, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers but have never really fought with people, yesterday's ring also showed too much immaturity, and the mentality of child's play is too strong, fortunately, Liu Ming and Wu Ming are interested in giving in, and it is really a coincidence that a fight has become child's play.
Hearing Concubine Shan Xun's encouragement, Xi Ting showed courage again, I am a person who wants to travel the world with a knife, the veil is destined to be taken off, how can I see a strange man, he is in a panic, and he is not Liu Tianxue, what is so terrible.
So Xi Ting turned around and looked at the man again: "Bold, I am beautiful, how can you praise me, what else do you see, who are you Why do you sleep here Hulujiao Island is so big, where do you sleep but sleep here." ”
The voice was also good, the brittle bell-like warbler was pleasant, and the young man was a little stunned and didn't know what to answer: "I see, I also see the fairy." ”
Called an immortal for the second time, Xi Ting was naturally used to it, and she was a little proud, she nodded: "Don't be so frivolous anymore, I know that I am very beautiful, since I am an ordinary immortal, you can't have anything to know, this immortal is a famous flower and a master, this has nothing to do with you, say who you are, otherwise you are good-looking." ”
Saying that, Xi Ting shook her fist with a straight face.
She pretended to be warm and angry, and the aunt next to her was also like a fairy sister, why did I get to the fairyland, the young man was still dreaming: "I, I, you just call me a gourd baby." ”
Concubine Shan Xun also asked: "Hulu baby, this is not your real name, we are asking about your name, tell me who you are, who sent you, and whether you are also here to steal the blood-drinking knife." ”
"Knife, what kind of blood, what do you want to drink, it's disgusting, what do I want to do with that, I have my woodcutter. ”
Saying that, the young man let go of the snake in his hand and touched the two short knives pinned to the back of his waist with both hands, Xi Ting instinctively took a step back, this move has been closely stared at by Qin Zhenzhen next to him, and the young man didn't care and directly held the double knives in front of his chest to make a cross, but he didn't expect Qin Zhenzhen to kick it over and reprimand in his mouth: "Bold fanatic, what are you going to do." ”
You should be able to feel that the young man is not malicious, but the act of releasing the snake is of course a little rude in front of the girl, and the person who likes to provoke trouble says that you can do it on purpose, not to mention that you are taking out a knife, Qin Zhenzhen just kicked it falsely, but he didn't expect the young man's behavior to be really a little surprising, and he didn't turn back just a little on his knees, and he withdrew backwards six or seven meters away, and then leaned on the ground and raised his head and said: "No, beware of hurting, this knife is extremely sharp and not to be joked." ”
The unprepared posture can jump out of several meters, and Concubine Shan Xun, who is watching, also frowned: "Oh, young man, your kung fu is good, tell me quickly, what kind of person are you." ”
The young man didn't get up, and raised the knife to his chest with both hands: "I, I'm a gourd baby, I just want you to see my knife, why did you kick me." ”
Qin Zhenzhen also felt strange: "Nonsense, I didn't kick you at all, you want to hide." ”
Unexpectedly, the young man was quite polite: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm just afraid that your foot will be cut by a knife, and you're relying on me, this is not a joke." ”
Concubine Shan Xun nodded: "Young man, look at your martial arts skills, but you are by no means a person who walks the rivers and lakes, and you don't even know how to deal with people, why do you have a big name, what do you do, and why do you appear here." ”
The young man put away the knife and scratched his head: "The seniors saw it, I really haven't seen anything, I should say that I haven't seen anything in the world, I have been living in seclusion in the mountains with Uncle Hulu, and I haven't seen anyone, especially the two fairy sisters who are so beautiful, but I don't know martial arts at all, I have always wanted to learn but Uncle Hulu doesn't let me, there may be some skills, sharpening knives and chopping wood." ”
Li Bao couldn't help it: "I also said that I don't know martial arts, I must have magic skills to protect my body when I catch snakes in my dream, and it is not overnight to see the dodge just now, and I am holding two chopping knives here to make a blind comparison whether I want to scare people or deliberately humiliate me." ”
This is to say that the role of internal strength is the vigilance of the highly, and the kung fu is high to a state where sleep is carried with gong, which seems to be very calm, but in fact, the real sleep is also very fragrant, but it is a sensitive response, just like a conditioned reflex.
For example, we ordinary people sleep, and some of them sleep to death and give him a slap and don't know how to wake up, but those who are highly meritorious, don't say that you can jump up by blowing your breath, anyway, your slap can't hit him, and you can still avoid it without waking up.
There are more powerful people in the familiar environment for the danger of the sensitivity, is also very high, mosquito bites do not matter, scorpions and poisonous snakes can quickly dodge, and even burst out of the danger of popping up.
Let's make an analogy about this sensitivity, it is easy to understand that it is a bench, no matter how long it is, it is the width of the palm anyway, not to mention that it is not easy for ordinary people to lie on it when they sleep, but those who are highly meritorious, how to turn over on the top can not fall to the ground, and they sleep very soundly, which is not the same as sleeping on the rope to keep a posture unchanged.
are all experts who can naturally see a person's kung fu, and Concubine Shan Xun is also very curious, why do I know less and less things about the king of Pepsi, Zheng Ying's kung fu breakthrough, the existence of Wuzhen Sect, Xi Ting's defeated sword, these are all things that have just been figured out, this is another snake catcher in the dream of divine power and body protection, he circled around the young man, and looked up and down carefully.
Its appearance is not good, it looks good, it looks so-so, but there are no disadvantages, the eyebrows are not thick, but they are not light, the eyes are not big, but they are not small, what nose and mouth are quite ordinary, the figure is quite strong and flexible, but it just lacks such an aura, and there is no cleverness.
A strange face that has never been seen before, and an ordinary face that does not make people have too much impression, Concubine Shan Xun nodded: "Yesterday, there was a little Xi Ting who said that she didn't know martial arts and could only dance, which really opened my eyes, and today there is a snake catcher who is sleeping with martial arts and even said that he doesn't know martial arts, and even said that there is any sharpening and chopping wood, is there such an exercise in this world I haven't heard of it, but today I met it and wanted to learn it." ”
As she spoke, Shan Xunfei gently turned her wrist and moved her body, making up her mind to fight.
The young man clasped his fists with both hands: "All industries in the world have meritorious and high skills, and they have become skilled after a long time, and the oil seller is also familiar with it, may I ask which one of the predecessors is." ”
Concubine Shan Xunfei smiled: "Haha, this is not bad, but like you, a hermit who has no experience in the world, even if you say my name, you can know, fortunately, I don't even want to say a name like you, tell you that my surname is Xunfei." ”
The young man nodded: "Oh, I really know this, it turned out to be the flower king looking for a concubine, known as Wulin Bai Xiaosheng is both a know-it-all in the rivers and lakes, and the second owner of the Eagle Wolf Villa, which is disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
Why do you want to take the title of Kao, Concubine Shan Xun was a little angry: "Ah, you know a lot and it's quite comprehensive, it seems that you and I are destined, we are destined, and we must fight." ”
The young man shook his head: "Don't dare, don't dare, the King of Freedom is proficient in the Freedom Divine Skill, the cold ice true qi is very powerful, I can't fight with you, I will suffer." ”
Li Bao pointed at the young man: "Don't you have that sharpening knife and chopping firewood skill?" ”
The young man looked at Li Bao: "May I ask who the seniors may wish to inform, so that the subordinates can know which master to talk to." ”
Li Bao frowned: "You asked a lot, in Xia Li Bao, the name is not well-known." “
The young man nodded: "The boatman who is loyal to the Lord with two guns in the river and five knives in the water fighting array is disrespectful and disrespectful. “
Xi Ting was a little energetic: "Ah, I really didn't expect you to know a lot, even Uncle Leopard, you know, then do you know me, my name is Xi Ting, what is my name." “
The young man shook his head again: "Mortals don't know what is going on in heaven, which one is the fairy." “
A little disappointed, Xi Ting pointed to the young man: "How could it be, yesterday's conference, I, Xi Ting, should have been famous, dull nerd, then how do you know Uncle Pepsi and my Uncle Leopard." “
The young man realized: "Oh, the martial arts conference, then I have to wait for Uncle Hulu to come back, everything I have is to listen to Uncle Hulu, and I won't know until he comes back, the name of the fairy's rivers and lakes." “
"You, I haven't heard of it, I haven't seen any Uncle Hulu at the conference yesterday, what does he look like, without him, can't you say a name yourself, so deal with it. “
The young man looked at Xi Ting: "Tsundere fairy." “
"Tsundere, isn't it just pride, are you praising me or hurting me, am I not worthy of pride, Uncle Leopard, give me a lesson with light words. “
Concubine Shan Xun hurriedly waved her hand: "Let me come, I really want to see what surprises this young man can make me." “
The young man hurriedly explained: "It is precisely because of being proud, I am praising Sister Fairy, why do you still fight." “
Concubine Shan Xun smiled: "It's late, I just want to fight with you today if I misinterpret the original meaning, no matter what I say, I can't escape, you just use your sharpening knife to chop firewood, let's have a few tricks, otherwise it won't be over." “
The young man shook his head again and again: "That's bullying, it's not necessary, Uncle Hulu said that my sharpening skills and chopping firewood are too powerful, and I can't easily fight with others, for fear of hurting the other party." “
Shan Xunfei was stunned: "Ah, who is bullying whom, you are still afraid of hurting me, the tone is not small, but this makes me more interested This scene is somewhat similar to what happened yesterday, Ting'er, this girl, came up and said that she couldn't martial arts, and the result was both dancing and martial arts, and it was her turn to fight, and it was a little unfair to say that her knife was too painful, so I also had to find a knife to win you." ”
Xi Ting hurriedly twisted the knife behind her: "Uncle, don't fight the doctrine of drinking blood knives." ”
Concubine Shan Xun glanced at Xi Ting: "I didn't expect you to be a child." ”
Xi Ting waved her hand: "It's not that I'm a little kid, it's a guy who is afraid of cutting off his food with a blood-drinking knife, but a chopping wood, how can he use a treasure knife, although this young man is rude, his sin will not lead to death, and it will not be good if he is injured." ”
Concubine Shan Xun nodded: "I know that you are kind-hearted, uncle, I am just joking, just a hairy boy of unknown origin does not need to work hard, I can fight with my bare hands." As he spoke, he stretched his palm and mouthed at the young man Nunu: "What kind of gourd baby, show your woodcutter, see me enter the white blade empty-handed." ”
The young man still shook his head: "No, this is unfair." ”
