Chapter 7: The Bottleneck (II)
Liu Shaoqing smiled and said: "Whoever cares about you depends on what you did to Xue'er, and it is true that you are very dissatisfied." However, there is a clear distinction between public and private, and we are only talking about swords now. Most of the desperate practice like you just now has encountered a bottleneck that is difficult to break through. Luo Tianchu was surprised: "Exactly, I didn't expect the owner of the village to be able to see my state just from the sword qi, it's really a god." Liu Shaoqing said: "Don't forget that I also practice swords." Although your internal skills are better than mine, your understanding and use of the sword are still far behind. Luo Tianchu admitted: "I am really ashamed of myself, and I hope that Bishop Zhuang will teach me." ”
Liu Shaoqing said: "I don't understand one or two sentences, you look at my sword." As he spoke, he turned around and pulled out the long sword on the table, and with a flick of his wrist was the three swords, and then he flicked it casually without looking, and the long sword flew back to the scabbard like a long eye, and the strength was just right, and the scabbard on the table did not move at all. After he sat down again, Luo Tianchu found that there were three shallow sword marks left on the opposite wall, each sword mark was five inches long and half an inch deep, as if carved out of a mold, and the spacing was exactly the same. Luo Tianchu praised: "Good swordsmanship." Liu Shaoqing said: "Don't you see anything else?"
Luo Tianchu was stunned, and when he looked at the sword marks carefully, he was taken aback, Liu Shaoqing's three swords were all flat stabs, how could they cause three sword marks in different positions? Could it be that his sword qi could actually turn around? Liu Shaoqing said slowly: "Don't just think about breaking through the bottleneck, sometimes the bottleneck can trap people for a lifetime. When you can't break through, you might as well think about whether there are other ways to improve your swordsmanship, which makes more sense than drilling into the horns. Luo Tianchu said: "What the owner of the village said is that the owner of the village is invited to teach." Liu Shaoqing said: "Family martial arts must not be passed on. Our methods of practicing Qi are also different, and it is useless to teach you. Besides, you are so smart, why do you need me to teach? Luo Tianchu said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice." Liu Shaoqing said: "Okay, it's time for me to go." Luo Tianchu said: "I just talked about the interest, why don't the owner sit down again." Liu Shaoqing sneered: "The guest outside the door has been in the corridor three or four times, and it will be really boring if you don't leave." ”
As soon as Liu Shaoqing left, Yeluqi flashed into the house and said with a smile: "What are you talking about?" Luo Tianchu said: "Talk about the sword." Lord Liuzhuang's swordsmanship is really good, and he pointed me out just now, and he really benefited a lot. Ye Luqi sat down and said, "Then who is more powerful, you or him?" Luo Tianchu smiled bitterly: "I just hope that I will never know the result." Ye Luqi pouted and said, "That Liu Zhuang master is arrogant and arrogant, and he doesn't seem to like me yet." Luo Tianchu smiled bitterly: "No matter who has his swordsmanship, he can be proud." In addition, who likes and dislikes is also the right of others, and we can't force it. Yeluqi said, "He's your friend, isn't he?" Luo Tianchu said: "Yes." Yeluqi said, "Your friend has a crush on your fiancée, but you are indifferent. If it had happened to us Liao, we would have dueled with each other a long time ago. Luo Tianchu said: "Don't forget that my current fiancée is you." Yeluqi said: "I'm talking about your ex-fiancée, don't you want to take her as a concubine?" ”
Luo Tianchu's face was full of sorrow, and he said in a deep voice: "There is nothing wrong with liking someone, emotional things cannot be controlled, and the owner of Liu Zhuang has not done anything wrong." You are not allowed to speculate like that in the future. Seeing that he was angry, Yeluqi was really scared, stuck out his tongue and said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong." Anyway, it's enough for you to know I'm the current fiancée. Luo Tianchu secretly sighed and said, "What are you doing here? Don't you know the current situation? If Wanyan Wushu finds out that you have entered my room, we will not be able to eat and walk around." Yeluqi said: "If you see it, you can see it, I'm still afraid that he won't make it." She saw Luo Tianchu's face sinking again, and then she explained with a smile: "Don't worry, I came quietly with Gu Yu, and no one found out." Gu Yu is now on alert downstairs, and if there is a situation, he will immediately send out a code. ”
Luo Tianchu said: "It's better that we don't meet in the past three days." Wan Yanchang is an old fox, we must be careful. Yeluqi said: "I understand what you said, but ...... People miss you, and you also said that no one can control your feelings. Luo Tianchu's face suddenly softened, and he said softly: "I want to concentrate before the big battle, and I don't dare to be distracted, I hope you can understand." Yeluqi smiled: "I understand, I'll leave now, I won't disturb you, and kissed him on the lips after speaking." ”
Zhu Yushi and Li Xiao came to the door of Luma Mansion. As soon as they knocked on the door, someone answered the door, and it was Manager Ding who opened the door, and after saying his name, Manager Ding led them into the mansion. The two found that the huge mansion was surprisingly quiet, and there was not even a single figure, Li Xiao asked, "Where have all the people in your mansion gone?" Manager Ding did not reply, but led the way and led them to Pei Zifu's study. When I went in, I saw Pei Zifu writing something on the desk, he hadn't slept all night, his eyes were covered with several bloodshots, and there was a cup of dark green strong tea brewed on the table.
Zhu Yushi said: "Lin Xiuwen, Guo Zijun, entrusted by my eldest brother Lin Xiuwu, came to visit Boss Pei. Pei Zifu put down the pen in his hand and motioned for the two to sit down, and said with a smile: "If my guess is right, Your Excellency is Zhu Yushi, right? This should be Brother Li Xiao." Last night Lord Loburg introduced you to you. Li Xiao smiled: "Boss Pei guessed well. Pei Zifu smiled: "Don't call the boss, we are already people in the same boat, and brothers are commensurate to be in the same boat." Zhu Yushi said: "Yes, Brother Pei." Pei Zifu smiled: "Did the two of you find that there is something wrong with the mansion?" Li Xiao nodded and said: "Why don't you see a subordinate in such a wide mansion?" Pei Zifu said: "This morning, I asked the account office to pay everyone half a year's salary, and they were all sent home." This matter is uncertain about life and death, and we must take care of the aftermath first. I am now writing letters to give up all the Pei family's property, and as soon as our dart cart leaves the city, I will send it out, and give it to the people who are now taking care of it, and I will not let them serve me for many years. ”
Zhu Yushi said: "It's really sad to be so involved with Brother Pei." Pei Zifu waved his hand and said: "There are not many opportunities for people to do great things in their lives, compared to the ambition of Lord Luobao, my little family property is nothing." I have no wife, no children, no worries, and I want to change my life. Li Xiao gave a thumbs up and said, "Brother Pei is really refreshing, we are here to obey Brother Pei's dispatch." Pei Zifu smiled: "I have ordered the nearby town to send a carriage to come." Xiao Yan has also gone to Hulukou to discuss with Lao Hu Da about borrowing a boat, and we can only sit and wait for news. At noon, I invited three trusted dart masters in the dart game to discuss the matter of transporting treasures, after all, fortune treasures rely on the efforts of the executioners, and some people in charge should always know the inside story, so the two of them also participated together. Zhu Yushi nodded and said: "Of course, there is no problem with Brother Pei's trustworthy person, but the fewer people who know the inside story, the better, people die for money, I am afraid that someone will do something unexpected." Pei Zifu smiled: "Well said, people die for money." As long as you promise heavy profits, there will also be people who will work hard. ”
At noon, the three dart masters came to Pei Zifu's study together, they were all dressed quite elegantly, brocade clothes and jade belts, swords and jade pendants, but the skin on their faces was dark and boring, only people who had been exposed to the sun for a long time would have this kind of complexion, and their hands were also dry and thick, and the calluses were two inches thick, showing a side that did not match their gorgeous clothes. After seeing Pei Zifu, he saluted at the same time, and found that there were two other people, but they didn't know each other, they were both wearing ordinary nursing home clothes, and they both looked at each other in surprise, not understanding how the big boss would invite the nursing home to attend.
The two "nursing homes" are naturally Zhu Yushi and Li Xiao. Pei Zifu first introduced them to the three dart masters. The dart masters are even more strange, according to the etiquette is to introduce the lower ones to the higher first, could it be that the identities of these two nursing homes are more important than themselves? )
