Merry Little Farmer

Wang Xiaobing heard that Hong Dongmei was good at fighting, but he had never seen her do it, so he didn't know if it was true or not.In the Tao, the vast majority of people don't have any kung fu background, they just fight quickly with their eyesight and hands.Hong Dongmei took out a piece of cardboard that was the length of a palm, to test Wang Xiaobing's reaction speed.

"Like this, put the four fingers together, keep the thumb parallel to the other four fingers, and keep a distance of one centimeter." Hong Dongmei made a demonstration and asked Wang Xiaobing to extend his right hand.

Wang Xiaobing stretched out his right hand as she said, and then Hong Dongmei put the piece of cardboard in the parallel space formed by his thumb and other four fingers, making the top of the cardboard level with the index finger, and said: "Look at my Eyes, I will let go at any time and let the cardboard fall. After I let go, you can grab the cardboard, only with your fingers, not your wrist."

Wang Xiaobing nodded, staring at Hong Dongmei's eyes, feeling a little embarrassed.But he knew that the moment she let go, her eyes would definitely change.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

It wasn't until the tenth second that Hong Dongmei let go and let the cardboard fall freely.In an instant, Wang Xiaobing saw a slight change in her pupils, and immediately put the five fingers of his right hand together, just pinching the cardboard in the middle.

"Your reaction is good, you can learn sword skills!" Hong Dongmei said pleasantly.

"Sister Hong, do you know sword skills?" Wang Xiaobing asked curiously.

"I know how to use daggers. My father was a soldier, and he learned a set of dagger skills from his comrades-in-arms, and passed them on to me." As he spoke, he pulled up his trouser legs, revealing a tied saber on his calf, and pulled it out , as if playing acrobatics, the general's sword is like the wind.

The first time Wang Xiaobing saw that Hong Dongmei really had two brushes, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide.

Hong Dongmei said: "Using a dagger is mainly for melee combat. Using a dagger is different from other long knives. The dagger is very short, and the main thing is to use strength from the wrist and palm." After speaking, she played it again, and then sheathed the general saber , holding it in his hand, said: "You try to grab my saber."

Wang Xiaobing took a step forward, grabbing the saber with his right hand, but Hong Dongmei turned her wrist, and the general saber stabbed towards Wang Xiaobing's palm, if it hadn't been sheathed, it would have pierced through.I tried to grab it more than a dozen times in a row, but without success.

Immediately, Hong Dongmei said with a smile: "With a dagger, the point of strength is on the wrist..." After she told Wang Xiaobing the trick, she added: "Now, I will teach you five moves."

"The first trick: the long dragon goes out to sea."

"Second trick: Shenlong wagging its tail."

"The third trick: the dragon's claw bottoming out."

"The fourth trick: Kanglong has regrets."

"Fifth move: The dragon is born in the sky."

Every move seems so simple, but it also contains infinite murderous intentions, Wang Xiaobing is also fascinated by it, and when Hong Dongmei finishes fighting, he still has more ideas.

"The name of the move is so nice!" Wang Xiaobing laughed.

"It doesn't matter, in fact, it can be called by other names." Hong Dongmei explained: "If you are familiar with these five moves, then when you meet ordinary gangsters, you can deal with five or six of them with a single dagger."

It's like watching a gymnastics performance. Watching other people's movements are so light and simple, as if it's not worth mentioning, but it's all done after countless hard training.The five sword moves are the same, in Hong Dongmei's hands, practice makes perfect, but in Wang Xiaobing's hands, they can't.After all, every sword move requires not only the wrist to pinch the sword, but also the footwork to keep up. If the footwork is wrong, the power will be greatly reduced.

"Let me learn the first trick first." Wang Xiaobing didn't dare to be too greedy.

"Okay, let me demonstrate it to you again." As she said, Hong Dongmei stabbed forward with the saber again, and before the move became old, the tip of the knife raised upwards. There are three hidden changes in this move.At this time, you can cut horizontally, vertically, or stab back behind you.

Wang Xiaobing took the saber and fiddled with it like a gourd. It looked good, but it didn't have any power.Hong Dongmei boasted: "Your comprehension ability is quite good! You learn this trick first, and when you are proficient, I will teach you the second trick."

"Okay!" Wang Xiaobing wanted to learn some kung fu a long time ago, but no one taught him.

"You have a good physique, are very agile, and you are a good swordsman." Hong Dongmei put her hands on her hips, "Whether you are on the road, doing business in the future, or a farmer, it is better to know a few tricks than not to know them. It can also resist the enemy. It is just right for self-defense. I have carried this saber with me for ten years, and now I give it to you."

"I'd better buy one." Wang Xiaobing was embarrassed to take her treasure.

"You keep it." Hong Dongmei's eyes were firm, unable to distinguish.

Wang Xiaobing knew that if he said more, it would make her unhappy, so he accepted it, and imitated her previous appearance, tied the saber and scabbard on his calf, and put down his trousers, so it was not easy to see.Caressing this Swiss-made saber, he seemed to be stroking Hong Dongmei's skin, wondering why she gave him the saber she carried with her as a gift, but was it really out of concern for herself?Or does it mean something else?He thought about it for a few seconds, then calmed down.

"Let's go, let's go outside." Hong Dongmei took out a cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and said.

Wang Xiaobing didn't know where she was going, so he followed her, went downstairs, and went out to the gate of the karaoke hall in Ye City.At this time, some shops in Shanshi Bazaar were closed, but some were still open.The night sky was clear, the clouds were light and the wind was clear, and it was a little cold, but only about ten degrees Celsius, which was not bone-piercing.

There are very few pedestrians on the street. Even in normal times, there are no passers-by between 10:30 and [-]:[-], not to mention that it is only the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and people have already gone home to enjoy themselves.

The two walked almost side by side, and Wang Xiaobing took half a step back consciously.He thought to himself that she might want to go for supper.

But after walking tens of meters, she actually walked into a clothing store.It was a large store that sold both men's and women's clothing.The female shop assistant obviously knew Hong Dongmei, she was very polite to her, and the service was very thoughtful. She showed her the trendy women's clothes, and praised her earrings while introducing the clothes.

Hong Dongmei waved her hand and said, "I don't buy clothes."

Although the female clerk was disappointed, she didn't dare to show it and had to put on a smiling face.However, Hong Dongmei pointed at Wang Xiaobing and said, "Help him choose some sets." The female shop assistant was really elated when she heard this.

At first, Wang Xiaobing thought it was Hong Dongmei who wanted to buy clothes, but he couldn't give any advice, so he followed behind, three or four steps apart, and pretended to look at the clothes. When he heard her say that she wanted to buy clothes for himself, he was really surprised and couldn't believe it. .He felt warm but also puzzled, he couldn't figure out whether she loved him or really treated him as a younger brother.
