Chapter 108 Joy
He Tianshu sighed, and said: "Xiaohua, it's not that I don't want to teach you, but, one thing, the inner strength and mind method I learned is exclusively for the disciples of the Misty Sect, and no one who is not a disciple of this sect is not allowed to teach it. If you are punished by the Discipline Hall, you will also be abolished from martial arts; secondly, the cultivation of inner strength and mind method is no more than boxing, it requires more aptitude. and your life. Did your second brother tell you the same? He can’t teach you inner strength either.”
Zhang Xiaohua nodded disappointedly, and said, "Yes, the second brother also said the same."
He Tianshu touched Zhang Xiaohua's head and said, "Go back, everyone has their own destiny, and God has already arranged it, if you have this destiny, maybe in the near future, you will definitely get what you want, otherwise, No matter how hard you try, you will get nothing."
Zhang Xiaohua lowered her head and followed He Tianshu back in disappointment.
Under the oil lamp, Zhang Xiaohua carefully looked at a book. These were not boxing techniques, but some books that Li Jinfeng had left for him. During the recovery period, he had developed a habit of reading some books at night, whether it was Whether it's boxing manuals or books, if you don't read it, it seems that something is missing.
I have read all the boxing manuals I can read, and only read books. There are countless books on the left and right, enough for Zhang Xiaohua to read for a lifetime.
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua saw "reviewing the old to learn the new" and "learning from time to time" in the book, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help being moved, carefully put down the book, closed her eyes and thought about the boxing scores she had memorized by heart, and did not tell He Tianshu about these today , and there is no special reason, just like when a child gets his favorite toy, he will not tell the adults immediately. The child will show it off at an unexpected moment to surprise the adults, and then he will look at the adults dumbfounded The appearance of laughing, that's all.
Zhang Xiaohua also has such thoughts, but the most important thing is that he still has no confidence in himself, he is afraid that he will not be able to practice these boxing skills well, so he said now, it is better to wait until he really does well, before it is too late.
Fortunately, following Zhang Xiaohua's thoughts, that boxing technique is like a river, and she can still clearly recall it. However, Zhang Xiaohua's expression has not changed. She raised her right hand, looked at the medicinal cloth on her hand, and stroked her mo with her left hand for a moment. Still didn't take it off.
When it was late at night, Zhang Xiaohua turned off the lights and fell asleep peacefully.
In the next few days, Zhang Xiaohua followed Nie Xiaoer to familiarize herself with the planting of various medicinal materials during the day, and took a horseback ride at night, living a very leisurely life.
It's just that Zhang Xiaohua didn't know that he had Yu Lao, whom he hadn't seen for several months, and would come to see them every night.
That night, Zhang Xiaohua was still reading under the oil lamp when she heard someone knocking on the door.
Zhang Xiaohua was startled, it was the first time she had knocked on the door at night, so she put down her book, opened the door, and by the light of the room, it turned out to be a one-armed Yu Lao.
Zhang Xiaohua was very surprised, and said, "Hi, Mr. Yu, please come in."
After Zhang Xiaohua let Yu Lao into the room and asked him to sit on a chair, she said: "Yu Lao, I have been back for many days, but I haven't seen you, old man, are you busy?"
Yu Lao smiled and said: "Don't say you just came back for a few days, that is, the month you stayed in the villa before, how many times have you seen me?"
Zhang Xiaohua said: "I haven't seen you for several months, so I'm a little surprised. Why did you come to me today?"
Yu Lao said: "There is nothing else, I just know that you are back, so I came to see your injuries."
Zhang Xiaohua was a little flattered, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Yu, for your concern. It should be ready. I'll let Captain He take a look at it tomorrow, and then I'll remove the medical cloth outside."
Yu Lao waved his hand and said, "Don't wait for tomorrow, I'll help you dismantle it now, it doesn't matter whether the injury of this bone is good or bad."
Zhang Xiaohua was rather surprised by Yu Lao's attitude. From the first meeting, he was neither cold nor indifferent to him. Why is he so caring today?
It's intriguing.
But Yu Lao is an old man after all, and he also cares about himself, and Zhang Xiaohua respects the elderly in his bones, so Zhang Xiaohua let Yu Lao help him remove the medicinal cloth from his hand.
In fact, Zhang Xiaohua's injury is already healed, and the medicine cloth is just a kind of psychological sustenance. As Yu Lao said, it really doesn't make any difference if you take it off today, so although Yu Lao has a right hand, with the help of Zhang Xiaohua Next, it is still very easy to remove the medicine cloth.
Zhang Xiaohua's right hand is the same as before, except that the skin looks abnormally pale, probably due to the lack of light.
Yu Lao didn't observe Zhang Xiaohua's fingers immediately, but said, "Try clenching your fist first."
Zhang Xiaohua followed her words and tried to shrink her fingers. This action, which used to be very common, now looks extremely clumsy, and even her fingers seem to be incompetent. Moreover, Zhang Xiaohua's fingers curled up to a certain extent, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move. Can't go any further, that is to say, Zhang Xiaohua can't clenched her fists now.
Zhang Xiaohua was anxious, and said, "Old Yu, what's going on? My hands...how did my hands look like this?"
Yu Lao said with a pleasant face: "Don't worry, it's always like this after an injury. For a period of time in the future, you need to practice stretching and stretching your fingers regularly, so that you can recover slowly. Now let me show you the details of the bones. "
Then, Yu Lao used his thumb and forefinger to carefully pinch Zhang Xiaohua's fingers, observing inch by inch. It took a long time to finish the inspection. Yu Lao raised his head. Under the oil lamp, Zhang Xiaohua could not distinguish his face.
Zhang Xiaohua wanted to ask, but looking at her hand, there was nothing wrong with it, so she didn't say it.
Yu Lao didn't tell Zhang Xiaohua how the bones were recovering, but instead asked him: "Why do you want to practice martial arts?"
Zhang Xiaohua was baffled by what she heard, and answered in a puzzled way: "Of course it's to protect my family."
"Other than protecting your family, if you learn martial arts, what else will you do?" Yu Lao asked.
Zhang Xiaohua frowned, and answered honestly: "No, I haven't thought about it that much, I just want to practice boxing first."
This time, it was Yu Lao's turn to frown, and he asked again: "Then you have learned martial arts, will you be able to fight against the strong and support the weak, and draw your sword to help when you see injustice?"
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua's mind immediately recalled the scene of her father and son being bullied in Lu Town, and the scene of her elder brother and herself being trampled to the ground by strong men from Xicui Mountain. She couldn't help but spit out: " Of course I will, if I have practiced martial arts and have the ability to help others and help the weak, of course I will do it."
Yu Lao asked again: "Then are you sure that the weak are wronged and should be helped?"
Zhang Xiaohua puzzled, "Old Yu, I don't quite understand this. If the weak have no reason, why would they provoke the strong?"
Yu Lao said with a smile: "This question is a bit difficult. You are still young and don't know people's hearts. Maybe you will understand in the future."
Then, he asked again: "Then if you want to fight against the strong and help the weak, but the strong man's martial arts are stronger than yours, will you make a move?"
Zhang Xiaohua didn't know how to answer this sentence. In the case of Lu Zhen, of course, Zhang Xiaolong stepped forward, defying the strong, and the result was disastrous. To do what we can, this question is really hard to answer.
However, in an instant, an inspiration flashed, and Zhang Xiaohua smiled and said: "Isn't this the reason why I want to keep practicing boxing skills, and even internal strength?"
Yu Lao frowned, then let go, and stopped asking Zhang Xiaohua any more questions, but looked at Zhang Xiaohua's right hand, and said, "Zhang Xiaohua, although the bone in your right hand has healed, it has been destroyed by internal force after all, and it is no longer what it used to be. Yes, it’s like a broken vase. It can still be used if it is glued again, but there are still cracks inside the vase. This is not well repaired. If you are not careful, it will still break. This is very important for you in terms of martial arts. It’s a big obstacle, and you must be mentally prepared.”
Zhang Xiaohua didn't understand the seriousness of the problem, and said with a smile: "In this case, the doctor of the bodyguard bureau has told me to recover slowly. Bones can grow, after all, they are different from vases. As long as you can practice boxing, As long as I can cultivate my inner strength, I don't even think about saving the whole Jianghu."
Yu Lao sighed, didn't say any more, just nodded, told Zhang Xiaohua to rest earlier, turned around and went out.
Zhang Xiaohua sent her to the door, looking at the old man Yu's back in the night, she was very puzzled, what was the old man doing after staying in his house for so long and asking so many questions? Zhang Xiaohua didn't think it was as simple as removing the medicine cloth for herself to see the injury.
However, Zhang Xiaohua has been thinking about it for a long time and still doesn't understand what it is for. However, time is the answer to all questions. When the time comes, she will naturally know. After thinking about it, Zhang Xiaohua fell asleep without even blowing out the oil lamp. .
The next day, in the morning, Zhang Xiaohua went to the place where He Tianshu and the others practiced martial arts as usual, stretching and stretching her fingers while walking, constantly exercising.
Zhang Xiaohua was still the first one to arrive. Instead of striding forward, he clenched his fists and tried a few boxing poses. He found that even without clenched fists, he could still complete a move without any discomfort, but in some moves, when changing between the fist and palm of his right hand, he was a little sluggish, and his fingers were a little stiff. Keep exercising, and it will gradually get better in the future.
Thinking about it some time ago, Zhang Xiaohua didn't dare to punch because she was afraid of affecting the recovery of her fingers. Zhang Xiaohua felt a little funny. If she had known this earlier, she would have started practicing boxing a long time ago, and she didn't have to watch He Tianshu and the others practice kung fu every day, but she was stunned. horse step.
However, he had forgotten that when the medicine cloth was not removed, he couldn't make a fist.
When Zhang Xiaohua was juggling with excitement, He Tianshu and others also came over, He Tianshu greeted Zhang Xiaohua with a smile: "Why does Zhang Xiaohua get up so early? Can't wait to remove the medicine cloth?"
Zhang Xiaohua stretched out her right hand with a smile, clenched her fist, and said flauntingly: "Captain He, look, my medicine cloth has been removed, but my fingers can't be fully bent yet, and I need to exercise more. "
He Tianshu laughed and scolded: "You child, you are really anxious. Didn't you agree to dismantle it today? How can you get rid of the medicine cloth by yourself."
Zhang Xiaohua said seriously: "Captain He, you have wronged me. I listened to you and planned to let you dismantle it for me today, but Yu Lao came to my room last night and helped me dismantle it."
He Tianshu asked strangely, "What's going on?"
So Zhang Xiaohua told He Tianshu what happened last night in detail. He Tianshu was also confused, but he frowned when he heard Yu Lao asked Zhang Xiaohua a few questions. It's clearly meant to be appreciated, but Zhang Xiaohua's character is what matters. Could it be that Mr. Yu wants to accept disciples?
However, He Tianshu is not particularly clear about Yu Lao's origin, but he is vaguely mentioned by others, and he can be regarded as a figure in the Jianghu. If he has a good eye for Zhang Xiaohua, it is also Zhang Xiaohua's good fortune, but Zhang Xiaohua's hand? He Tianshu couldn't help being suspicious again, and then he felt relieved, this is all other people's business, and he can't accept Zhang Xiaohua, so why worry about it?
Then, he thought of the questions Zhang Xiaohua had answered, and thought to himself, this Xiaohua is really an honest child, if he was a little smarter, he would have already climbed up the pole, not to mention the lotus flowers all over the sky. I won’t let it go, at least I have to make a statement, for the sake of justice, for peace, and for the happiness of the Jianghu people, alas, who knows that this Zhang Xiaohua knows how to protect her family, she knows how to practice boxing, and she didn’t hear the old Yu’s words. If you have something to say, if you hear it, if it is really a big horse, kneeling on the ground, desperately begging Yu Lao to include it, maybe it will be done.
What a pity.
However, if this is the case, is he still Zhang Xiaohua?
He Tianshu shook his head, this kind of Zhang Xiaohua has a vain head, but he is not the down-to-earth Zhang Xiaohua that everyone likes. This world still needs people who can do practical things.
Seeing that He Tianshu shook his head and frowned again, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help asking: "Captain He, Mr. Yu did this for my own good. You want to see my injuries. Don't be angry."
He Tianshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he glared at him and said, "Am I so narrow-minded? Are you angry that someone took your medicine cloth off first?"
Zhang Xiaohua stuck out her tongue, not daring to speak.
Then he said: "Captain He, since you are not angry, my medicine cloth has been removed, and I want to practice boxing. Look, can you give me some advice?"
When He Tianshu heard this, he immediately took a half step back, ready to perform lightness kung fu, and said: "How about this, you should do restorative exercises first, review the previous boxing techniques first, let me tell Nie Xiaoer about the new boxing techniques, Let him teach you, okay?"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhang Xiaohua's answer, she dodges, unfolds her lightness kung fu, and runs away.
Zhang Xiaohua was left behind and said strangely: "Why do you run so fast, Captain He, I didn't intend to ask you to teach me. I have memorized a lot of complete boxing techniques. I just want you to watch it from the side. Why do you just run away?" gone?"
Then, while waiting to find Nie Xiaoer and the others, they found that they were all gone?
Zhang Xiaohua was in admiration for a while, it's nice to have light skills.
Since there is no one around to give advice, Zhang Xiaohua doesn't care. There are so many boxing techniques in her mind, and each set is deeply memorized.
Thinking about it, the corners of Zhang Xiaohua's mouth turned up slowly, and she thought to herself: "After I have practiced all the boxing techniques, I will not take a dustpan to collect your dropped jaws."
So, Zhang Xiaohua picked up her posture and started her first boxing practice after recovering from her injury.
Zhang Xiaohua now has a lot of boxing books in his mind, and he didn't choose deliberately, he just randomly found a set from among them, squinted his eyes, searched for his own memory, and started fighting with the figure in his mind.
After playing the first time, it was perfect, almost exactly the same as Zhang Xiaohua's memory, Zhang Xiaohua was extremely happy in her heart, is she really not a good-for-nothing? Is Captain He's teaching method problematic? Could it be that only by reading the boxing manual and memorizing it in my mind can I truly learn the complete boxing method?
A series of questions prompted Zhang Xiaohua to play the second time immediately, and the result was very satisfactory. He did not miss any moves. Unfortunately, it was getting late and there was not much time for Zhang Xiaohua to verify the third time. He hurried to the dining room.
But Zhang Xiaohua didn't, or didn't notice at all, the figure in her mind had faded a lot, and it was no longer as clear as before.
Now Zhang Xiaohua has entered the role, following Nie Xiaoer to do some elementary work, he is very used to using his left hand, and he can do everything with his left hand very flexibly, but he is not very busy, or he feels When she has time, Zhang Xiaohua also insists on using her right hand, although her right hand is a bit clumsy. Today, he uses his right hand very deliberately, such as holding a small shovel, holding small scissors, etc., because he knows that only by training his right hand as soon as possible can he really practice boxing skills as soon as possible, because he has already completed a complete set of punches today. Fisting, thinking about it is a burst of fire in my heart.
After dinner, Zhang Xiaohua came to the boxing practice place early, but he didn't stay where he was, but walked outside for a while, away from He Tianshu and the others, but he didn't have to worry that He Tianshu couldn't find him, Although it is far away, there are lanterns hanging on the tree, which can be seen all the way.
Just as Zhang Xiaohua thought, He Tianshu and the others saw Zhang Xiaohua's lantern from afar as soon as they went out, thinking that he was shy and embarrassed to show his incomplete moves, and He Tianshu even praised Zhang Xiaohua in his heart. I know I'm shy, but I used to be thick-skinned when I punched, and I didn't even blush when I forgot every move.
Standing under the tree, Zhang Xiaohua calmed down her emotions, and slowly repeated the boxing routine that she had done in the morning, and she was able to finish the punch without missing a single move. Naturally, she was extremely happy, and finally confirmed that she could After finishing a set of boxing techniques, how can you be unhappy?
I was about to run over to announce the good news to He Tianshu, but I thought that he was also practicing kung fu, and it would be too late tomorrow, so I began to think about whether I could do a second set of boxing. , Zhang Xiaohua practiced the second set non-stop. Sure enough, the effect was as obvious as the first set, and she could still play it completely.
So, Zhang Xiaohua was very excited, and fought those two sets of boxing from beginning to end, over and over again.
