Chapter Seventy-Eight: Ling'er Practices Martial Arts
Chai Zhiheng escaped from the valley and chose a path that was flooded with weeds and rarely walked to find Ling'er and Dieyi. Before Chai Zhiheng returned to Huanshan Village to rescue the villagers, Chai Zhiheng hid Dieyi and Ling'er in a stone cave in the mountains, leaving them plenty of food. Dieyi and Ling'er looked at the sky and saw that it was getting late, and they hadn't seen Chai Zhiheng come back, they were very anxious, Dieyi and Ling'er hid in the cave according to Chai Zhiheng's instructions and didn't dare to come out, so they could only look out through the gap in the mouth of the cave overgrown with weeds, so that until the night was very dark, they still didn't wait for Chai Zhiheng to come back. Ling'er looked at Dieyi with tears in her eyes, and Dieyi also had an ominous premonition in her heart, feeling that something might have happened to Chai Zhiheng. Ling'er said in a trembling voice Sister, is Uncle Shi unable to come. Ling'er wiped away the tears in her eyes, and the tears slowly seeped out of her eyes, and Dieyi no longer had miserable tears, allowing her and Ling'er's tears to fall silently in the night, and gently fell on the stones on the ground and fell apart. Dieyi said that Uncle Ling'er's martial arts are so strong, how can those bad guys be Uncle Shi's opponents, Uncle Shi delayed time in order to rescue the villagers, and Uncle Shi is estimated to be back tomorrow. Ling'er innocently said to Dieyi, Uncle Shi's martial arts are so strong, why can't he save his father and mother, why did he take us to run around? Dieyi said that there were too many bad people at that time, and Uncle Shi couldn't deal with them alone, but this time you can rest assured, in this place full of mountain peaks, with Uncle Shi's martial arts, hide somewhere like us, and those bad people will not be able to find Uncle Shi.
Ling'er listened to Dieyi's words, her heart became full of happiness, and she lay in Dieyi's arms, and said Sister, do you say that Uncle Shi is like us and is now lying in the cave thinking about us sleeping. Dieyi choked up and said, yes, how much Uncle Shi feels sorry for our lovely Ling'er, now he must be lying in the cave thinking about Ling'er, and then slowly falling asleep with Ling'er in his thoughts, so, Ling'er, you have to go to sleep quickly. Ling'er nodded her chin, closed her eyes with an "um", and fell asleep in Dieyi's arms. After Ling'er fell asleep, she still looked at the entrance of the cave outside from time to time, and in her knowing disappointment, Dieyi didn't see Chai Zhiheng walking into the cave. In the middle of the night, Dieyi estimated that Chai Zhiheng would not be able to come back, and comforted himself that there were too many peaks here, and there was no road at all, and Uncle Shi must have been lost in that place, with Uncle Shi's martial arts, even if he got lost and met wolves, insects, tigers and leopards, those beasts could only be the master's mouth, and there would be no danger. Dieyi's eyelids began to blink and close, and after repeating it dozens of times, Dieyi fell asleep leaning against the stone with Ling'er in her arms.
The sun shone into the cave sporadically, Dieyi woke up from her dream, opened her eyes, looked at Ling'er who was still asleep, and gently put Ling'er on the grass on the ground, and then gently walked to the entrance of the cave, and put her head into the drooping grass to see if Chai Zhiheng came to them. Disappointment, another sensible disappointment strikes Dieyi's brain. The clever Dieyi thought that something must have happened to Uncle Shi now, but the fantasy in her heart found reasons for Dieyi to be lost, Uncle Shi was chatting with the villagers, etc., took out a small bowl from the pocket next to him, and went to the bottom of the rock in the cave to catch the dripping spring water. The water dripping from the crevices in the rocks falls into the bowl with a crisp sound. Dieyi silently watched the dripping water, and for about half an hour, the bowl was filled with clear spring water. Dieyi picked up the bowl and gently drank a little spring water with her small mouth, and the sweet spring water moistened Dieyi's throat and moistened Dieyi's entire body. Still dry and thirsty, Dieyi picked up the water bowl and walked to Ling'er's side. At this time, Ling'er woke up, rubbed her eyes, and asked if Uncle Dieyi was here. Dieyi smiled and said, silly boy, it's just early in the morning, Uncle Shi has just gotten up, how can he come to the cave in a while.
Ling'er nodded and said thirsty. Dieyi handed the water bowl to Ling'er's mouth, Ling'er took the water bowl from Dieyi's hand, and said that Uncle Shi said that from now on, he will have to do what she can take care of herself. Dieyi said half-tearfully and half-happily that Ling'er is sensible now and has grown into a big girl. Ling'er said Sister Dieyi, don't you know martial arts? Dieyi said that she learned a little bit of martial arts from her master and master. Dieyi stretched out two fingers and pinched a small pebble from the ground and said figuratively. Ling'er said that in order to make herself grow faster, she would avenge her father and mother as soon as possible, and begged Ling'er's sister to teach her martial arts. Dieyi thought about her humble martial arts, how could she let Ling'er avenge her master and mother? But thinking about it in a blink of an eye, Chai Zhiheng may not be able to come back, where else can Ling'er learn martial arts, although he is martial arts, but in this deep mountain and old forest, where wild beasts are infested, teach Ling'er some martial arts, at least let her survive better in the wild, if Uncle Shi comes, or one day can meet a good master, then Ling'er has this foundation, and she will learn faster, so she promised Ling'er and said, my sister can teach you martial arts, but practicing martial arts is a physical work, and you must fill your stomach before you have the strength to practice, and said that she went to the burden and took some things for Ling'er and herself。 Dieyi and Ling'er were hungry and sat on the grass bunk to eat food. After Dieyi and Ling'er were full, Dieyi carefully broke two branches from the entrance of the cave, and handed one to Ling'er and said, The most famous swordsmanship of our Huashan faction, especially the Dugu Nine Swords, is a unique swordsmanship in the world, so today we will practice swordsmanship. In this cave, we have no weapons, and Uncle Shi's sword is on him, so we first use the branch as a sword to learn the swordsmanship of the Huashan School.
Dieyi doesn't know much about martial arts, and she doesn't know the importance of basic skills at all, so in order to teach Ling'er a little martial arts she knows as soon as possible, she asked Ling'er to follow her to learn swordsmanship moves at the beginning. Dieyi taught a set of simple Huashan swordsmanship to Ling'er, lying down Ling'er holding a branch and gesturing, in order to increase his martial arts, protect Ling'er, and be the master. Shi Niang took revenge, and she also practiced martial arts with a branch on the side. Although Ling'er is young and the Dieyi teaching method is inappropriate, Ling'er is naturally smart, and those moves are quickly memorized, and when she is two hours old, Ling'er can already play swordsmanship with a trembling stomach on her own. Dieyi looked at Ling'er happily and said Ling'er, you are so smart, you learned the swordsmanship that your sister only learned in a month so quickly, and the revenge of the master and the master can be avenged by you in the near future. Ling'er happily "um, um", her heart was full of infinite expectations.
