Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 59

...

In the open space in the backyard of Li Yan's house.

Li Yanhu played a set of stick skills vigorously.

After finishing the fight, Li Yan casually pushed the mixed iron panlong stick into the already frozen snow, and then asked Lin Chong beside him: "How about my stick technique?"

Lin Chong glanced at Li Yan's 120-jin mixed iron panlong stick, and then at the end that was at least half a foot deep in the snow. The corners of his eyes twitched, and he thought to himself: "Brother, these iron arms must not be as strong A hundred catties of strength!"

Although he thought so, Lin Chong didn't dare to be negligent in his mouth, saying: "This set of staff skills is very good, coupled with my brother's supernatural power, even if it can't be invincible, I'm afraid there are few opponents."

Li Yandao: "I like to be straightforward, especially with my own people, so I will ask you directly, is there anything you can teach me?"

Teaching and teaching is a very effective way to get closer to each other, especially in ancient times. Don't you see, since Shan Shiqi taught Li Yan the stick method, he has gotten closer to Li Yan.

Li Yan understood this truth, and Lin Chong also understood this truth.

Therefore, Li Yan said to Lin Chong: "Brother, come to my house tomorrow morning to see my stick skills." This set of stick techniques is brilliant, but there are few changes. If you meet a real master, you may be hard to beat. My teacher was born in Shaolin and is proficient in all Shaolin stick techniques. Later, my teacher created a set of sticks based on Shaolin stick techniques. The method, named Zhou Tong's stick method, is extremely powerful and versatile, and can be used in horse battles as well as foot battles. In the past, when my younger brother studied with my teacher, he learned half of it. If my brother If I like it, my younger brother will show my brother this half set of stick techniques."

Hearing that there was only half a set, Li Yan couldn't help but feel a little bored—although he knew that the things Lin Chong took out to teach him were not bad, but he only learned half of them. What!
Lin Chong seemed to see that Li Yan was dissatisfied with only half a set of staff skills, and said: "Brother, don't worry, my master is very strong, and now he is in the Daming Mansion. If there is a chance someday, my younger brother will go to find my master in person. Teach my brother the other half of the staff."

Hearing what Lin Chong said, Li Yan immediately felt better, and said, "Then I'm sorry, brother."

Lin Chong hurriedly said: "Brother, don't be too polite. My younger brother is the chief instructor of the cottage. It is my duty to teach people martial arts!"

Li Yan asked with a smile: "Then will you teach these soldiers half of the staff?"

"This……"

Lin Chong was slightly embarrassed, and said: "This half set of stick techniques is the most real skill of my teacher's life. My teacher has a good word and cannot be easily spread. Besides, everyone's aptitude is different, not everyone is suitable to learn it. This kind of cumbersome stick method, and the stick is not suitable as a soldier's weapon..."

Li Yan laughed, and said: "Brother, don't be nervous. I didn't say to let you pass on this half of the stick technique to the outside world. What I want to say is... Thank you brother for passing on my brilliant stick technique."

Appropriate jokes help to bring the relationship closer to each other.

Moreover, Li Yan's tone was sincere.

This made Lin Chong very excited. He felt that his relationship with Li Yan was one step closer, and his future was brighter!
Lin Chong laughed and said, "It's the younger brother who is so petty...The younger brother will demonstrate this half-style cudgel for the elder brother?"

Li Yan said: "Okay."

Lin Chong didn't dare to take Li Yan's mixed iron panlong stick. He knew that he couldn't handle this 120-jin iron stick. Instead, he took a three-meter-long white wax pole he brought from the side, and then Pulling up the long lapel and tucking it around his waist, he said: "Speaking of which, it is also the fate of this stick method with my brother. There are two types of sticks, wooden and metal. My master's stick method is driven by wooden sticks, and metal sticks can also be used. Driven, there are lengths and short sticks, the longest one is Zhangba (1.3 meters), and the short one is no more than chest ([-] meters), so there are also lengths of sticks. My master's stick method is to accommodate horses and fight without losing flexibility. , specially selected a stick of Zhang Er, which is almost the same length as my brother's mixed iron panlong stick, it seems to be created by my brother."

Li Yan said with a smile: "Maybe this is the will of God in the dark."

When he came to the middle of the field, Lin Chong stood with his feet apart, his right hand held a stick in front of his right, his left palm was slowly raised from the left side of his body until his head fell in front of his chest, in the posture of a boy worshiping Buddha, and then he sang: Live, how to hold the gun to stab the face. Squat down with the front punch, and the gun at the bottom of the stick can be taken off by the sleeve. Zhongsiping is really strange, and it is not easy to know whether it is a ghost or a ghost. It can be opened and closed at will, and the status will never move... ..."

While singing, Lin Chong performed a set of unpretentious stick techniques.

If it was Li Yan a few months ago, he must not have seen the power of this set of sticks. After learning the sticks from Shan Shiqi for several months, and with his clear ears and eyesight, Li Yan could see something of this set of sticks Knowing the skill of the law, he knew that what Lin Chong brought out was indeed dry goods.

Originally, Li Yan thought that there must be many styles in this set of changing stick techniques, but it turned out that there were only seven ways, and then it stopped abruptly, which made Li Yan feel unfinished!
After Lin Chong finished the fight, before Li Yan asked, Lin Chong took the initiative to say: "Stick moves are dead, but people are alive. The superior stick technique is all about flexibility. The stick technique created by my master is the best. The great thing is that it can be changed arbitrarily according to the enemy's moves. My brother is born with supernatural power, and using a stick as a weapon is the most suitable. The stick hits a large area, with the speed of pounding and chopping. Then, tiger's mouth to tiger's mouth, Ren Fanfei up and down, um... I will explain these to my brother slowly, these are Ge Jue and stick moves, and it is best to destroy them after my brother memorizes them." —— While speaking, Lin Chong touched the He took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Li Yan.

Li Yan took it and flipped through it hastily, and found that some ink marks were not dry. It must have been written by Lin Chong last night, and then said: "Brother has a heart."

Lin Chong hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "It's my honor to teach my brother how to stick... My brother will practice it first, and then we will correct and explain it slowly?"

Li Yan looked up at the sky, and then said: "Let's come here first today, I'll go back and memorize the Ge Jue and the stick method, and I will ask my brother for advice tomorrow... I will eat something later, and then my brother will go with me to meet someone .”

Lin Chong didn't ask who he was going to see, but said directly, "Yes!"

At this time, Bian Xiang also came to the open space in the backyard of Li Yan's house with three high-quality white wax poles.

Seeing Bian Xiang coming, Li Yan said, "Let's go."

After speaking, Li Yan walked out...

Seeing this, Lin Chong and Bian Xiang hurriedly followed Li Yan's footsteps...

……

Remnant snow and early sunshine, the sun is bright.

After breakfast, Li Yan took Lin Chong and Bian Xiang out of Shuibo Liangshan and came to the side of Dongshan Road.

Waiting until noon, the road was still empty, Bian Xiang finally couldn't help asking: "Brother, who are we waiting for?"

While speaking, Bian Xiang looked into the distance again, but still no one passed by here.

Li Yandao: "His name is Yang Zhi. Everyone in the world calls him a green-faced beast. I got a spy report. He has to pass this road today. I'll meet him here for a while."

Lin Chong asked, "But the grandson of Lord Yang Linggong of the Golden Sword won the Yang Zhishi who won the martial arts examination in the early years?"

Li Yan said: "It is this person."

Bian Xiang was puzzled and said: "Since I have become an envoy in the palace division system, I am an enemy rather than a friend to us."

Lin Chong said: "The envoy Yang originally served in the frontier army in the west of the Guanxi. Later, the official family built the Longevity Mountain, and sent ten envoys like him to the Taihu Lake to carry the flowers and stones, and went to Beijing to pay them. The envoy Yang transported Jian to escort the When Hua Shigang came to the Yellow River, the boat was overturned by the wind, and Hua Shigang was lost. He couldn't return to Beijing to take up his post, so he fled to another place to seek refuge. I didn't expect that today we would hit Liangshanbo and pass by."

Li Yandao: "It coincided with the amnesty, which made him see the hope of whitewashing, so he sold all his belongings and collected a load of money and things, and planned to go to the Privy Council in Tokyo to do some sorting."

Hearing Li Yan mentioned that there was an amnesty, Lin Chong couldn't help being moved!

But when he thought about the crimes he had committed, and the fact that he had offended the powerful Captain Gao, Lin Chong's heart soon turned cold again!

Bian Xiang said: "Sister-in-law's modified magic arm crossbow, we have tried it, it is really a sharp weapon, can you give us a few more?"

Li Yandao: "The production of the divine arm crossbow is cumbersome, but the key is that the materials are hard to find. The strings of the divine arm crossbow can only be made by using high-quality beef tendon with silkworm cocoons and yellow croaker swim bladder ointment. , there is a shortage of materials on the mountain, and there are not many usable craftsmen. It may be difficult to mass-produce in a short period of time. Axiu is looking for a substitute for the crossbow string. When she finds it, Brother Tang Long recruits enough craftsmen and will give you more A few of them."

Bian Xiang said sincerely: "Sister-in-law is really a god, she can even improve such sharp weapons as the god arm crossbow!"

Li Yan said: "Yeah, I didn't expect that she really has such intelligence!"

What Li Yan said was true, Liu Huiniang was so amazing in "Jie Shui Hu Zhuan", she was so amazing that she could build tanks and submarines, so that Li Yan thought she was a time traveler, so she didn't believe the introductions about her.

But as we got along, Li Yan discovered that Liu Huiniang might really have this talent—she is so smart and has the spirit of research. Li Yan even thought that if she was not allowed to do other things and let her focus on research, she might be able to become a One of the greatest scientists and inventors.

Thinking that such a smart woman is about to give birth to her own child, Li Yan felt very refreshed, and at the same time looked forward to whether her first child would be as smart as her mother!
However, Li Yan couldn't help but worry about Liu Huiniang's terrible body!
Seeing the worried look on Li Yan's face, Bian Xiang comforted Li Yan and said: "Then An Daoquan and Kong Hou both have the reputation of miracle doctors, and there are no worthy men under their reputation. It is expected that they will be able to cure sister-in-law's illness. Don't worry about it, brother." Worry."

Lin Chong had already learned that Liu Huiniang's health was not in good shape from the servant, and said, "I don't know if my brother has heard of Mou Jie before?"

Li Yan really didn't know this person, and asked, "Who is he?"

Lin Chong said: "He is an imperial physician from the imperial physician's office. He has excellent medical skills and is well-known in the capital. Sent by the government, together with several other imperial physicians, he went to North Korea to teach medicine. What he taught was women's. When I was hanging out in Tokyo, I heard that imperial physician Mou Jie could give concubines, emperors and concubines in the palace with a single thread. Ji Duan's disease can be cured with just one or two doses of medicine. I have heard about An Daoquan and Kong Hou. They are well-known, but in terms of women's medicine, I am afraid that they may not be able to catch up with them. It's Namosuke."

Li Yan secretly said: "Since this Mou Jie can represent the Central Plains to go to Korea to teach medicine, his level is naturally extremely high. What is especially rare is that he is good at gynecology. If he can also join the list of treating Axiu, Axiu Your body must be safe."

In addition, there is a lack of civil servants and counselors on the mountain, and Li Yan also wants to find someone to share the role of Wang Lun. It just so happens that there is such a great talent in Tokyo. No, to be more precise, one may be recruited by Li Yan Great talent here.

Therefore, Li Yan quickly made up his mind to go to Tokyo in person!
After making up his mind, Li Yan turned his head and asked Lin Chong: "I will go to Tokyo in a few days, brother, do you need my help?"
