Chapter 100
Yu Deyi, who was left behind, was puzzled. She asked, "Granpa Qu, why are you so nice to him?
You even let him borrow the martial arts school's manual? "
The Third Master Qu smiled and said, "Have you seen the martial arts school's manual?"
Yu Deyi said, "I haven't."
The Third Master Qu asked again, "Then why haven't you seen it?"
Yu Deyi asked curiously, "Why would I look at the manual?
Don't the martial arts school's masters teach me? If I were to look at the manual wrongly, then it would be a matter of life and death during a fight.
Aiya, I understand now. Granpa Qu, the older the ginger, the spicier it is. You gave a useless manual to Zhang Xiaohu as a favor for no reason. "
The Third Master Qu smiled and said, "That's right. You have to consider everything carefully. You can't just look at the surface. I brought Zhang Xiaohu from being a bodyguard to the martial arts school with the intention of roping him in. I'm using this as a favor for his younger brother. He will definitely remember my kindness.
Moreover, how can someone like him, who has no foundation, learn a profound inner strength cultivation method if he enters the martial arts school?
Won't he still have to follow me? "
Yu Deyi also smiled and said, "I understand now. Granpa Qu, if he listens to you, then you will teach him a profound inner strength cultivation method. Otherwise, you can just find someone to teach him a normal cultivation method. In any case, any inner strength cultivation method will be out of his reach."
The Third Master Qu smiled proudly and praised him, "You are a promising child. However, you left out two things. First, whether it's a profound inner strength cultivation method or a normal inner strength cultivation method, this Zhang Xiaohu will never be able to master it. He will always be under the control of our escort agency.
Secondly, his younger brother's hand is already crippled. Even if I show him the inner strength mantra of the martial arts school, he won't be able to learn it, let alone a mere fist manual, and an extremely ordinary one at that. "
Yu Deyi's face was full of regret as he said, "Granpa Qu, I didn't expect you to be so talented."
The Third Master Qu twirled his beard and chuckled. It was as if his name was "Proud".
How would Zhang Xiaohu know about this?
He only cared about pleasing his younger brother so that he would have something to do and not have time to think about his injuries.
The collection in the martial arts center was very rich. There were many saber manuals, sword manuals, and so on. Of course, most of them were the fist manuals, which filled up the entire shelf. Zhang Xiaohu scanned through them and found that there were at least a hundred manuals. He could not help but feel surprised and happy at the same time. He was surprised that there were so many fist manuals. If the Bodyguard Agency's collection was only this much, then what about the ones circulating in Jianghu?
He used to be a frog in a well. Even though it was good to specialize in different techniques, he would still take a look when he had the time.
He was happy that there were so many fist manuals, which would probably be enough for his younger brother to read during this period of time. Even after he recovered from his injuries, it would still be enough for him to read for a while.
However, he immediately felt a little sad. Once his injuries were healed and his younger brother knew that he could no longer practice martial arts, would he still look at these fist manuals?
Looking at so many fist manuals, Zhang Xiaohu did not know how to choose. However, after thinking about it, he still took the first one on the top. Actually, it didn't matter. He planned to let Xiaohua pass the time anyway. Any one would do. If not, he would let him read one by one. Hehe. However, looking at the shelves full of books, Zhang Xiaohu felt a headache coming on. He could not help but shake his head. How could it be?
He took out the fist manual and the person in charge casually flipped through it and recorded it in a booklet. He did not ask much and let Zhang Xiaohu take it away.
With the fist manual in his arms, Zhang Xiaohu hummed a country song and walked back to his room with relaxed steps.
As soon as he opened the door, he heard Li Jinfeng talking to Zhang Xiaohua, "Xiaohua, I don't want to praise you, but you are really too damn smart. I advise you to give up on martial arts and pursue literature. What's so good about practicing martial arts? Fighting and killing every day without a single peaceful day. Then you can study literature, read books, and write poems. You won't be blown by the wind or drenched by the rain. Isn't that great?"
Zhang Xiaohu heard this and was baffled. He said, "Young Master Li, what's going on?"
When Li Jinfeng saw Zhang Xiaohu enter the room, he happily pulled his hand and said, "Zhang Xiaohu, help me persuade your younger brother. He is still a child. Why should he suffer so much to learn martial arts?
With his brain, if he studied hard for two years, it would be easy for him to get some scholarly honor. When the time comes, he can walk on the path of an official. Wouldn't that be great? "
Zhang Xiaohu was still confused. He said, "Is Xiaohua very smart?
How come I don't know? I watched him grow up. I never heard that he was a child prodigy.
If he was smart, my father would have sent him to school a long time ago. Why would he bring him around school? "
When Li Jinfeng heard this, he frowned and said, "I don't know what Xiaohua was like when he was young. But now that he has grown up, perhaps he has been enlightened."
Zhang Xiaohu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "You should be clear. What's going on? I don't know what's going on. How can I persuade him?"
Li Jinfeng smiled and said, "I was too rash and too impatient. Hehe, you weren't in the room often these days, so I was teaching Little Blossom how to read. In the beginning, his learning speed was quite normal, just like a normal person. But later on, his learning speed became faster and faster. In this period of time, he was already able to read this fist technique manual. Also, look at his writing. Although he was sitting on the kang bed and writing with his left hand, it was actually quite standard and his improvement was godly.
His aptitude is a hundred times better than mine. It's a pity that he doesn't go to school. "
Zhang Xiaohu's heart moved. He picked up Zhang Xiaohua's writing. Sure enough, he remembered seeing him write at home before. The writing was of different sizes, like crabs crawling. The writing on the paper was neat and looked very neat. Thus, he said to Zhang Xiaohua who was sitting on the kang, "Xiaohua ah, I see that you have a great talent in reading. You were young before so I didn't notice it. Fortunately, you're not old now. I think you should go study literature. In the future, if you become a top scorer, you can bring glory to the family. Father and mother will be very happy."
Zhang Xiaohua said in a serious tone, "Of course not. Second brother, Mr. Liu and Liu Kai's knowledge is not bad. But when sister-in-law is being bullied, can they intervene?
Since I've embarked on the path of martial arts, I definitely won't give up halfway. Don't you think so, Brother Li? If I change my mind every now and then, how can I become a capable person? "
Zhang Xiaohu saw that he had made up his mind, so he didn't try to persuade him. Li Jinfeng's eyes lit up as he listened. He secretly said in his heart, "This is clearly a rare character. Even his refusal is so eloquent. How can I let him go?
Didn't the doctor say that Zhang Xiaohua can't practice martial arts in the future? I won't try to persuade him anymore. I'll just preach in detail. When he knows that he has no way to practice martial arts, won't he still come and study literature with me? "
Thinking about this, he rolled his eyes and said, "En, Xiaohua's words are reasonable. But practicing martial arts should be to strengthen the body. Fighting and killing in Jianghu is not harmonious. If you have the opportunity to study literature, you must inform your Brother Li."
Zhang Xiaohua said with a smile, "Okay. When the time comes, I will definitely learn from Brother Li.
However, I think Brother Li will definitely be disappointed. "
Li Jinfeng said with a smile, "If he's disappointed, then he's disappointed. The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment. It doesn't matter.
Now that you know a lot of words and can read the fist manual, I'll give you the ancient books that we read tomorrow. Even if you don't study literature, reading these will be very beneficial for your martial arts practice. "
"Really?
Then thank you, Brother Li. Tomorrow, bring it to me early so that I can read it. I've been reading this fist manual for the past few days. It's boring. "Zhang Xiaohua was very happy when he heard this.
Li Jinfeng said as if he had seen a fish that had taken the bait, "Since you know that the fist manual is boring, the ancient books I'll bring tomorrow will definitely make you read them with great interest. You won't be willing to let them go.
Haha. "
Then, he looked at the sky, packed his things, and bid farewell.
After Li Jinfeng left, Zhang Xiaohu looked tenderly at Zhang Xiaohua and said, "Xiaohua, I didn't know that you were so literate and had such good aptitude. I think you should consider Young Master Li's suggestion. Being able to live a peaceful life is also a good choice."
Zhang Xiaohua frowned and said, "Second Brother, why are you so long-winded today? I've never been very smart since I was young. The teachers all said so. Who knows what's going on now. Maybe Brother Li was just joking. I've never thought of going to study.
Is there something Second Brother wants to say? "
"Ahem," Zhang Xiaohu coughed for a while and quickly changed the topic, saying, "There really is something I want to tell you."
Zhang Xiaohua was stunned and said, "What is it, Second Brother? You've learned to keep me in suspense?"
Zhang Xiaohu mysteriously took out the fist manual from his chest and said, "Look, what is this?"
Zhang Xiaohua took it and carefully looked at it, saying, "Isn't this the Erlang Fist's manual?
Second Brother, where did you get this? "
"Erlang Fist?"
Zhang Xiaohu was stunned and quickly took the manual. He carefully looked at it. That's right, the big "7" on the cover was right there. He was preoccupied with taking the manual and didn't look at it carefully. It was fine if he didn't recognize the other two words, but he actually didn't see the "7". It was really embarrassing. This kind of lack of education was really scary.
That librarian was also the same. He actually didn't read it. Zhang Xiaohu's face was a bit red.
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's curious gaze, Zhang Xiaohu mumbled to her about what happened in the afternoon. When Zhang Xiaohua heard that Second Brother had actually found such a good opportunity for her, her eyes lit up as if they could release countless stars. She loudly said, "Second Brother, I really admire you. You're my lifelong idol. Thank you."
Seeing Zhang Xiaohua's excitement as expected, Zhang Xiaohu was happy from the bottom of his heart. However, he still said, "Let's forget about this first book. I'll immediately go get you another one."
Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't change it yet, Second Brother. We just borrowed it, so go get it changed. Don't let anyone say anything. If you don't let us borrow it, then it won't be good. Let's leave it here for now and go get it changed tomorrow."
Zhang Xiaohu could only say, "Okay, I'll go tomorrow morning."
Afterwards, Zhang Xiaohua excitedly asked about the librarian's situation. Zhang Xiaohu also explained in detail. Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua was abnormally happy and said, "That's great, Second Brother. I must read through all the fist manuals inside."
Zhang Xiaohu thought about that shelf of books and didn't have the heart to interrupt his younger brother's mood. He said, "Okay, I support you, Xiaohua."
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua asked again, "Second Brother, have you seen any books on internal strength?"
Zhang Xiaohu scratched his head and said, "I'm not very literate. How would I know which book is for internal strength?
This fist manual was also taken by someone else to find it.
However, I think that the mental cultivation method for internal strength shouldn't be shown to me or let me borrow it. They must have kept it very secretive. "
Zhang Xiaohua nodded when he heard this. If it could be easily borrowed, then what was so precious about it?
Zhang Xiaohu casually threw the Erlang Fist manual on the kang bed.
After dinner, Zhang Xiaohu was still practicing his Liuhe Fist under the oil lamp. Zhang Xiaohua watched in boredom. He was really curious. Wasn't this just a set of Liuhe Fist? There were so many moves over and over again. What was there to practice?
His Second Brother was still treating it like a treasure. He practiced it over and over again. Sometimes it was fast, sometimes it was slow. Was it really effective?
He was very doubtful.
He was extremely bored. He casually picked up the fist manual by the kang bed and flipped through it under the faint light. As he flipped through it, he suddenly made a sound. His hand stopped on a page of the fist manual. Zhang Xiaohu, who was practicing, heard the sound and quickly asked, "What's wrong, Xiaohua?"
"Oh, Second Brother, I saw a very strange place." Zhang Xiaohua explained, "Bring the oil lamp over."
Zhang Xiaohu obeyed and brought the oil lamp closer. Zhang Xiaohua carefully looked at the page in front of him. He then picked up the other fist manual that Li Jinfeng brought over and flipped to the same page. He carefully compared it and then nodded. He said to Zhang Xiaohu with certainty, "Second Brother, look at this place. This is the book that you borrowed from the library. This page is the move that I learned. Compared to the fist manual that Brother Li brought over, the side of the body is a bit stronger and the position of the fist strike is a bit lower. It's the same mistake that I made. However, the one that I remember is a bit stronger than the one you brought over."
Zhang Xiaohu rubbed his chin and frowned, "What does this mean?
Mistakes can be made in the fist manual and mistakes can be made when the master teaches. Then wouldn't the Erlang Fist that is passed down in the jianghu be different? "
Zhang Xiaohua nodded and said, "Second Brother, what you said makes sense. Moreover, this fist technique has been passed down from the past to the present. It's probably not the same as before."
Zhang Xiaohu said, "En, yes. Although the big things won't change, the small details will definitely change a lot."
"Hahaha." Zhang Xiaohua faced the sky and let out a long laugh.
Zhang Xiaohu stared blankly and said, "Are you crazy?
Why are you laughing so lewdly? "(Ignore. Spoof.)
Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said, "Second Brother, Captain He said that my fist technique was wrong and always corrected me here and there. However, I just couldn't change it. Now it seems that as long as the moves are correct, there's no need to think so much about the details. In fact, no matter how much you think about it, what Captain He learned might not be the most correct. What do you think?"
Zhang Xiaohu nodded and said, "You're right. Then, you're going to …"
Zhang Xiaohua said, "I think that when I practice in the future, I'll rely on my memory. What I remember is what it is. What I remember is what it is. What I remember is what it is. I don't plan on correcting it."
Zhang Xiaohu patted his head and mocked him, "That's right. You can't change it even if you want to. If you don't do it this way, how can you do it?
You're just finding an excuse for yourself. "
Zhang Xiaohua grinned and said, "Maybe."
The knot in Zhang Xiaohua's heart was untied. He slowly flipped through the manual and tried to memorize more moves. In fact, when Li Jinfeng brought the manual over, he had already tried to memorize more moves. Unfortunately, at that time, he had a deep impression of it. When he recalled it the next day, other than those two moves, there was no trace of the other moves. It was just like when he practiced in the Huan Xi Mountain Villa. Therefore, when Li Jinfeng praised him for being smart, he didn't dare to respond. This kind of memory was one in a million. It would be good if he didn't say that he was mediocre. How would he dare to wear the hat of being smart? If he was exposed one day, it would be very embarrassing.
However, when it came to Li Jinfeng's teaching of literacy, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but feel proud. Just like Li Jinfeng said, he remembered it clearly and used his left hand more smoothly. However, just as Zhang Xiaohu said, he was already a teenager. He didn't need to be so proud of learning things that children taught him.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a "plop" sound. Zhang Xiaohua looked up and saw that it was Zhang Xiaohu who had fallen to the ground. He couldn't help but become anxious and shouted, "Second Brother, what's going on?"
Falling to the ground while practicing boxing was not a good thing. Could it be that he had gone mad?
Who would have thought that Zhang Xiaohu would jump up like a carp. His posture was still confident and at ease. He patted the dust off his body and said, "It's nothing, Xiaohua."
Only then did Zhang Xiaohua let out a sigh of relief.
Zhang Xiaohu explained, "Just now, when I hit a spot, there was still a gap in front of my fist. I suddenly thought of what you said just now. This boxing technique might be wrong. Thus, I extended my fist forward and my body leaned forward. My feet were still preparing to change to the next move. My waist didn't twist and I lost my balance. Hehe, I fell down."
When Zhang Xiaohua heard this, he raised his thumb and said, "Second Brother, you really are a genius. Since ancient times, you are the first person to be able to fall down while practicing boxing. Although it can't be said that there won't be anyone in the future, this is something that no one has ever done before."
Zhang Xiaohu spat and said, "That's what you get for your glib tongue."
Then, Zhang Xiaohua stopped smiling and said sternly, "Second Brother, what I said just now was just a guess. You can't take it seriously. Don't take it to heart. The Liuhe Fist or Erlang Fist has been passed down for so many years. Many people have practiced it, so it must have its benefits. If you suddenly change the style during a competition, you might be courting death.
Moreover, everyone's martial arts path is different. At first, when I saw that you were so good at practicing only one set of Liuhe Boxing, I wanted to learn from you. Moreover, there are probably other people in the escort agency who want to learn from you. But, look at me, I can't even remember the complete set of Arhat Boxing. How can I only learn one set of boxing techniques? "
When Zhang Xiaohu heard this, he nodded slightly.
Zhang Xiaohua continued, "So, your path is not my path, and my path is not your path. I changed the move because I couldn't remember it. You don't have to. You have practiced this Liuhe Boxing for so long, how can you change it?
Moreover, you don't know how to change it! "
