Song Xiao

Chapter 26 Pingping in troubled times

"Sir, you can admit it!" Xiao Linglong threw the bamboo pole and clapped her hands and said, "It's not that I have to be aggressive with you. It's really those two people who miss you!"

Chu Tianya blinked his eyes and did not interrupt, but he was thinking in his heart: Listening to Xiao Linglong's words, it seems that Uncle He has any old knowledge or relatives and friends in Qixing Village?

"Old man, I'll say it again. You have the wrong person." He Bo was still not angry and said in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with the Yang family's pear flower gun? In those years, Yang Ye and Yang Lao Ling became famous all over the world and became a model for later generations. How many people who practice martial arts don't know the famous name of the Yang family's pear flower gun? It's like, the old man has eaten or recognized these precious and famous dishes you brought back today, but he can't cook them by himself.

Chu Tianya smiled and said, "Well, Uncle He means that you haven't eaten pork and haven't seen the pig run away?"

"Yes, that's the reason." He Bo turned his head and looked at Chu Tianya. The old and the young all laughed, with a little sense of embarrassment.

"Well, I don't force people to do anything." Xiao Linglong seemed to be not drunk at all. She looked at He Bo with deep and energetic eyes and said, "But I have a kind invitation."

He Bo grinned with big yellow teeth and smiled, "Young master, why don't you take a dress and put it on Princess Xiao first? She is like this, which not only leaks the spring light, but also easy to catch a cold."

Chu Tianya immediately laughed and said, "Bun He, you don't respect me!"

"You old and young are not a good thing!" Only then did Xiao Linglong realize that her chest was all wet. She hurriedly crossed her hands on her chest and turned around, and her face was also red.

Chu Tianya took off his round-neck robe and threw it to Xiao Linglong. Xiao Linglong was not polite. After taking it, she draped it on her body and at least covered the spring light on her chest.

"Princess Xiao wants the old man to do something for you?" Only then did Uncle He get to the point.

"I can't learn enough about the Yang family's pear flower gun, and it's less than 20%." Xiao Linglong said, "Since the old man has a deep understanding of this set of shooting techniques, can you teach me the full set of shooting techniques?"

"Oh, this is to steal teachers to learn art!" Uncle He laughed chatteringly.

"I'm an open student. Why am I a thief?" Xiao Linglong said, "The old man is willing to teach, but I won't force myself if I don't want to!"

"Let me interrupt." Chu Tianya said, "Princess Xiao, why do you like martial arts very much?"

"Yes, I also regard it as a hobby." Xiao Linglong said, "We women of the Khitan nationality, like men, can practice riding and shooting since childhood. Although I come from the royal family, my father and brother are both military personnel. I have loved practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I have invited many martial arts masters to teach me martial arts. I also followed my father and brother to the Four Seasons Nabo (hunting), flying eagles and horses chasing rabbits and tigers for fun.

"No wonder Princess Xiao's martial arts are many but not specialized, miscellaneous but not refined." He Bo said, "There is no shortcut to practicing martial arts. One is talent, and the other is hard work. I think Princess Xiao's talent is very good. Since she has this hobby, she must be very diligent. It's just that you practice too much, but you are not proficient in it.

"So that's why I asked the old man to teach me a full set of Yang's pear blossom shooting!" Xiao Linglong said, "From now on, I will specialize in this item until I am deeply trained!"

"Hey, I'm afraid this will disappoint you!" Uncle He smiled and said, "The old man just said that I just know the Yang family's gun, and I don't know it. The Yang family's gun, as the name implies, can only be learned by the descendants of the Yang family. You are a Khitan... hey hey!"

A trace of disappointment suddenly appeared on Xiao Linglong's face. She bit her lips and nodded helplessly, "In this case, I won't force it."

"But! ..." He Bo's words turned around and suddenly stopped again.

"But what?" Xiao Linglong's face showed a trace of surprise.

"I know another way of shooting. If Princess Xiao is willing to agree to a condition of the old man, the old man is willing to teach him all his money!" As He Bo said, he laughed strangely and kept moving his eyes and glanced at Chu Tianya.

"Why are you looking at me?" Chu Tianya blinked and said, "You two discuss things by yourself. Don't get involved with me."

"What's the condition, you say!" Xiao Linglong asked with a serious look.

"If you marry my young master, I will pass on this shooting method to you, hey hey!" Uncle He smiled very shamelessly and pulled Chu Tianya to let him stand directly opposite Xiao Linglong. "My young master's talent should also be worthy of Princess Xiao!"

"You are not ashamed of yourself. What are you talking about!" Xiao Linglong suddenly became angry, "If you don't teach, you won't teach. I don't care!"

With that, she strode towards the door. Halfway through, he took off the round-necked robe on his body and threw it at Chu Tianya, "Return it to you! - I don't know how long it has been since you took a shower!"

Xiao Linglong stepped out of the yard in a few steps angrily. Chu Tianya reached out to catch the floating dress and looked at Uncle He with a wry smile, "Bun He, you are really an old man. Who are you messing with? She is like a hedgehog, and no one can touch it!"

"It's not possible." He Bo grinned with yellow teeth and smiled, "A girl like her is actually a knife-mouthed and a tofu heart. The tougher and cold-looking she is, the hotter and affectionate her heart is. However, the old man could see that the girl had a heavy heart and had suffered a lot of emotional wounds, so she would resist whenever she saw a man. In the final analysis, she is just a poor person with a ruined country and a troubled life. In such an environment, if she didn't protect herself like a hedgehog, she wouldn't be able to stand here today.

Chu Tianya suddenly smiled, "I can't see that Uncle He is still a great love saint!"

"Hey hey, it's not a love saint." He looked at the empty door and said meaningfully, "But the old man was also young after all. Who doesn't do a few stupid things when they are young and frivolous? ...By the way, this Princess Xiao is actually good. If anyone can walk into her heart of a woman with such a personality, she will be loyal and willing to sacrifice everything for the other party. Young master, if you have a chance, you must grasp and cherish it.

"This is a boundless thing." Chu Tianya smiled indifferently and said, "She just doesn't look at me right. If you don't see me quarrel with me once, I will be Amitabha."

"That's why I answered the sentence 'Isn't it that the enemy doesn't get together'!" Uncle He smiled and said, "Young master, you are not young. On the day of his life, the master hoped that your marriage would be delayed as soon as possible, but he closed his eyes and didn't look at it. Unfilial piety is the most important thing. It's time for you to consider this matter.

Chu Tianya smiled bitterly, "It's going to be a disaster. How can I have time to talk about love? - Don't mention this matter for the time being. I have another thing to say to Uncle He.

"Young master, please speak."

Chu Tianya told He Bo about his experience in the past two days, and told him that Wang wanted to take him as an apprentice and teach him the shooting of the Wang family. Then he said, "Actually, I know myself. When it comes to the talent of practicing martial arts, I am not extraordinary. But Wang's kindness made it difficult for me to refuse, so I agreed. Seeing that the war is about to start, how can I practice any profound shooting skills day and night - I don't know Uncle He, do you have any quick martial arts skills that can guide me?"

"Hey hey, so that's it. It's a good thing!" He Bo laughed and said, "The Wang family gun is from the five generations of famous gun Wang Yanzhang. Although it is not as good as the more famous Yang family gun, it is still good. However, Wang Yu probably didn't mean to drink wine. He took a fancy that the young master's martial arts qualification was fake, and it was true that he appreciated the young master's talent.

"I don't have any academic talents!" Chu Tianya laughed.

"It is not easy to rely on the young master's courage to go against the Jin people against the current. How many young people are there nowadays who have the insight and courage like you? Uncle He smiled and said, "Old man, as I said, the biggest reliance of people is ultimately wisdom, not fists and feet. Otherwise, why are people in charge of everything in the sky, not tigers, lions, bears and cows? - However, since the young master is interested in learning some martial arts, it is not a bad thing. As the saying goes, if you practice guns for a long time, the shooting skills can't be done quickly. It is difficult to become a big weapon without more than ten or twenty years of painsive polishing. Just like Princess Xiao, her Yang family's pear flower gun is not enough to learn and practice well. It's okay to squat. If you really meet a gun-using connoyant, you will be defeated in three or two moves. I think she has practiced for less than half a year at most.

"Since she is so obsessed with Yang's guns, she should have learned this shooting recently?" Chu Tianya frowned and said, "Are there any descendants of the Yang family in Qixingzhai? Otherwise, who can teach her how to shoot in the near future?

"Who knows, hey hey! It's none of our business." He Bo laughed and said, "The young master wants to practice some martial arts to defend himself, and he has to do it quickly - I'll teach you a few boxing skills!"

"Good!" Chu Tianya hugged his fist happily and worshipped, "When you are born in troubled times, you can't be overwhelmed by your art!" Then Uncle He will teach me how to do boxing! In this case, Uncle He is also my master!"

"Oh, I dare not do it, I dare not do it!" Uncle He quickly waved his hand, "I'm a subordinate, how dare I be the chief of the young master? If the young master is willing to learn, the old man will teach him; it's like the young master is hungry, and the old man will cook for you, but don't get involved in the relationship between master and apprentice.

"Okay, just follow the old man's wishes, and we won't stick to those vulgar principles!" Chu Tianya laughed.

"Young master, you'd better call me Uncle He. I can't get used to the name of the old man, hey hey!" He Boba squeaked his mouth for a few times and thought for a moment, and said, "I'll teach the young master to practice a set - Guanzhong Red Fist!"

"Red Fist? That's a great name!" Chu Tianya exclaimed, "It is said that it was created by Chen Qian's ancestor?"

"Where, he also learned from others. It's just that it is said that the name 'Red Fist' was named by him, which means 'the world'. He Bo said with a smile, "Red boxing has a long history. There were people practicing it in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Qin Han Dynasties. Xue Rengui and Guo Ziyi, famous generals in the Tang Dynasty, have practiced red boxing and are masters. However, Red Fist has formed a complete routine and developed various genres, which is indeed in this dynasty - we don't have to care about these things. Practicing martial arts can strengthen the body and protect itself in troubled times. Anyway, it is good. And the young master is full of strength in his youth, which is a good time to practice boxing!"
