74 Acting Helper (3)
The five of them talked about it until late at night, and they all felt that the arrangements were well-arranged and flawless, so they rested separately. Li Xiangru, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" pavilion, did not sleep well all night, and saw his father and mother covered in blood for a while, and saw them beheaded by two executioners for a while, but the onlookers laughed, he screamed in fright, and woke up, only to realize that it was Nan Ke's dream. His body was covered with sweat, and when he looked up, the sun shone in through the window, and it turned out that it was already bright.
As soon as I was about to get up, I heard a knock on the door, and then someone whispered, "Helper, helper." It was Zhang Shi's voice. Li Xiangru turned over and jumped out of bed, yawning and said, "What's the matter?" Zhang Shi said outside the door: "Elder Hao ordered me to call the helper to get up, he will teach you martial arts today." Li Xiangru frowned, walked over and opened the door, and said, "What kind of kung fu to learn, there are big things to do in the past two days, and it's not too late to learn when things are done." ”
Zhang Shidao: "Elder Hao said, kung fu can't be left behind, help master, your foundation is not enough, first teach you a few tricks of self-defense." Li Xiangru waved his hand and said, "Learn, learn, but I just got up and haven't washed my face yet." Zhang Shishi said: "Wait until I fetch water to wash the helper." So saying, he ran out. No, I brought a basin of hot water and a towel. After Li Xiangru washed, he lazily came to the courtyard and saw Elder Hao standing in the courtyard, holding a bamboo pole and looking at the sky with his back hand, and the other three elders standing solemnly aside.
Li Xiangru pretended to cough, and several people came to greet him when they saw him coming. Li Xiangru said: "In terms of theory, several elders are seniors, so these gifts will be exempted in the future." Elder Hao said: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, the gang leader as the leader of the beggar gang, stand up for virtue and prestige, if you don't even want the most basic etiquette, then what kind of system, how will the gang leader lead the beggar gang in the future?" Li Xiangru heard a bunch of theories from him, and knew that he couldn't talk about this bad old man. Then he opened the topic and said, "What martial arts does Elder Hao want to teach me today?"
Elder Hao put his hand on the ground and said, "As the leader of the beggar gang, according to the practice of the gang leader for thousands of years, each of the four elders in the gang must pass on his skills to the new gang leader, and I will teach you today." Li Xiangru said: "I don't know what kind of martial arts Elder Hao passed on to me?" Elder Hao said: "I have been in the rivers and lakes for decades, and I am fortunate to be able not to die so far, all relying on a set of 'Dragon Palm' for self-defense, and now I will teach you this set of palm techniques." As he spoke, he pulled a frame. Elder Zhu and the others retreated with interest. This is the rule in the rivers and lakes, if you watch it without the permission of others, it will be regarded as stealing the teacher, which is a taboo in the rivers and lakes.
Elder Hao shouted: "Now I'll show you this set of palm techniques, you have to see it clearly." As soon as the words fell, I saw him jumping and moving, running all over the yard, flying like a feather on the ground, standing tall like Mount Tai when it was heavy, the palm shadow flying, and the palm wind whistling, which dazzled Li Xiangru and couldn't help but applaud.
After Elder Hao finished practicing a set of palm techniques, his face was not red or panting, and he asked Li Xiangru: "I have a total of thirty-two palm techniques, how much have you memorized, help master." Li Xiangru said: "You fought so fast, I don't remember it, but Elder Hao, you practice very well." Elder Hao said: "It's useless to look good at martial arts. That's it, since you haven't memorized a single move, I'll teach you slowly from the first move!" said that the left palm was slowly patted, the right palm was fluffed to the side, the left foot was slightly bent forward, the toes were on the ground, the right foot was half squatting, and the mouth said: "This move is called 'Dragon View the World', which can be attacked and defended, advanced and retreated, although the move is not complicated, but there are no flaws." Li Xiangru was always worried about robbing the prison to save his parents, where did he have the heart to learn martial arts, followed him to compare and draw, looking absent-minded, he came down early in the morning, and only learned four or five tricks, which made Elder Hao so angry that his face turned green and his lips turned white, but it was inconvenient to get angry.
Li Xiang was already the leader of the gang at this time, and his status in the gang was supreme, although Elder Hao's qualifications were old, he was his subordinate after all, and he had to listen to him in everything. Elder Hao said angrily, "Helper, you are not attentive, how can you remember the moves that have been taught to you, let alone comprehend their essence. You have your father and mother in your heart, we all know this. However, as the leader of a gang, you must do what you can't do, and you must practice until you are attentive and undistracted, so that you can take on the great responsibility of a gang. Besides, if you practice martial arts well, and then go to save your father and mother, it will also have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort. Li Xiangru said: "I didn't want to be the head of this beggar, you forced me to do it, I don't want to do anything now, I just want to rescue my father and mother as soon as possible." ”
Elder Hao's face sank, and he said: "The helper's words are wrong, since Lu Jiutong and Uncle Lu and his old man have passed on all the steps to you, which shows that he has high hopes for you, you don't cherish the name of the helper now, but you also have to take into account Uncle Lu's hard work." Li Xiangru only remembered that a few months ago Lu Jiutong taught himself the "three tricks to save his life" and "three tricks to escape" in Shimenxia in a hurry, he said that he was in a hurry and hurried away, now in retrospect, it was when the gang leader Tong Jinlong disappeared, and he thought that Lu Jiutong was anxious about the disappearance of the gang leader, and now he became the acting leader of the beggar gang by mistake, and how much he reported Lu Jiutong's kindness to himself, if he regrets it halfway now, wouldn't he be sorry for Lu Jiutong?
Thinking of this, he immediately said to Elder Hao: "Elder Hao is right, I am indeed concerned about my parents, but since I have agreed on a way to save me, I should calm down and learn martial arts well, so as to live up to the painstaking efforts and expectations of the beggars." Elder Hao said happily: "It's good that the helper understands this truth." We've learned again. Only then did Li Xiangru make up his mind and seriously follow Elder Hao to learn.
Elder Hao's set of palms has thirty-two palms, but each path contains three palms, for a total of ninety-six palms. Li Xiangru is extremely talented, and now he has come up with knowledge, and he learned 16 roads in the afternoon, plus what he learned in the morning, he learned 20 roads in one day, and Elder Hao was so happy that he couldn't stop praising him again and again.
Li Xiangru had practiced the "Nanhua Heart Sutra" before, and learned the cloud steps taught by Lu Jiutong, and already had a certain martial arts root, but no one called him out to practice internal strength. Now Elder Hao taught him only some moves, although the palm is ingenious, the moves are mysterious, but after all, they are some flower fists and embroidered legs, which are useless, and they can be used to protect themselves, and it is useless to attack and injure the enemy.
On this day, Li Xiangru learned Elder Hao's 20-way palm technique, and Elder Hao thought that he would be able to complete all the 32-way palm technique in another day, as for the subtlety and mystery of the palm technique and the depth of the skill, he had to rely on his own heart to comprehend and practice diligently in the future.
