Zhao Zhengxiao glanced at Li Zhenzhen, then clasped his fists at the surrounding diners and said: "Dear friends from all over the world! This morning, I met an old friend by chance. I was very happy, so I decided to perform a unique trick here for everyone to join.
Be happy and happy. I am not a juggler. After the performance, I don’t expect you to reward or give me money. As long as everyone is happy to watch, don’t forget to give me some applause. It’s not in vain that I have practiced so hard.
Menjue comes out alive."
This voice came so suddenly that no one could realize what was going on.
Zhao Zheng was not in a hurry to perform directly and said these words twice.
Only then did everyone realize that Zhao Zheng was going to perform. Since it was a free performance, everyone welcomed it.
"This little brother, what unique skill are you going to perform?" one of the diners asked.
"The unique skill I am going to perform for you is called sword swallowing. As the name suggests, it means opening your mouth and swallowing a blunt sword alive. As the saying goes, asking for help is like swallowing a three-foot sword, and relying on people is like going to the ninth heaven! What it means is
, Asking others to do things is as difficult as swallowing a three-foot sword. From this, it can be seen that this is not an easy task." Zhao Zheng said, showing the bright sword blade in his hand to everyone, and then lit it up on the table.
With a hand gesture, he danced the blunt sword, flipping around on the small table and changing his stance. His movements were smooth and flowing, and the sword in his hand was danced to a bright and dazzling light.
Without waiting for the formal performance, this gorgeous action alone frightened the diners present, and some people immediately cheered.
Zhao Zheng simply showed his hand, stopped, put away his moves, leaned down, and held the blunt sword in the palm of his hand.
"This is the blunt sword I will use for the show later. There is no edge on the sword. If anyone here is worried about this sword and is afraid that I am cheating on it, you can come and check it out." Zhao Zheng said and looked around.
Looking around, smiling at everyone.
Soon two good people came over and picked up the blunt sword in Zhao Zheng's hand. They checked it up and down and tinkered with it for a long time. They couldn't find any mystery on it. Zhao Zheng asked these two people to use the blunt sword again.
The sword was shown to others for inspection. The two of them walked around from seat to seat holding the blunt sword. Many people touched the sword a few times, including even Li Zhenzhen.
The blunt sword walked around and returned to Zhao Zheng's hand. He held it in his hand, turned it over twice, and saw a few light fingerprints on it. He smiled bitterly and said: "This sword is a bit dirty. As the saying goes, disease comes from the mouth."
Put it in. It's better to wipe it before swallowing it." Then he called the waiter, got some water, scrubbed it, and then continued the performance.
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time. I will start my formal performance now. You guys are all staring at my moves to see how I can swallow this sword in my stomach." After Zhao Zheng finished speaking, he handed the blunt sword to one hand and freed up the other.
His hands tapped on multiple acupuncture points on his chest to seal them. He immediately felt a tightness in his chest, and even his breathing slowed down a lot. His entire mouth became numb.
After many days of research and study, he has begun to get a glimpse of the "knowledge within his sleeves". Now he is much more proficient in acupuncture techniques, and the effect after sealing the acupoints is also better.
Half of the credit for completing this sword-swallowing skill must be attributed to acupuncture. As long as the acupuncture points are sealed accurately, the process will be much easier.
Seeing that Zhao Zheng's sword dance was good and his acupuncture methods were impressive, Yuanyangxia and his wife looked at each other and nodded secretly. Li Zhenzhen watched intently and with great interest.
After sealing the acupuncture points, Zhao Zheng began to formally swallow the sword. He held the sword body with both hands, with the sword tip facing down and the hilt facing up. He raised it above his head, then opened his mouth and slowly sent it down.
Although it is a blunt sword, not everyone can swallow it. Just looking at this action makes people feel uncomfortable in their throats, let alone swallowing it themselves. Everyone stared at the slow sword with wide eyes.
Slowly sinking blunt sword.
This process was not carefree. Zhao Zheng frowned with a frown on his face and forced the sword down. Since he had not practiced for many days and his technique was unfamiliar, the whole process was more difficult than he imagined. He could barely do it.
Bear.
If you want to be distinguished in front of others, you must first treat others and then suffer.
Unique skills are not so easy to practice.
Under the gaze of everyone, Zhao Zheng swallowed the entire blunt sword alive and did not stop until it reached the hilt. Then he slowly took his hands away and showed it to everyone.
"Oh my god! I actually swallowed the whole sword. This is so awesome."
"This is really a unique skill. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to swallow a chopstick, let alone a sword."
"Good! Good performance!"
Everyone present cheered, and some clapped. One of the people applauding was Li Zhenzhen. She widened her beautiful eyes and looked very happy, and she clapped her beautiful hands together.
Zhao Zheng stopped when he saw that he was good, and did not embarrass himself. When the applause was loud enough, he put his hands on the hilt of the sword and slowly pulled it out. Without the blunt sword, his body suddenly felt light and relaxed.
few.
Seeing that Zhao Zheng was fine, everyone gave him a round of warm applause.
"It's embarrassing." Zhao Zheng held the blunt sword in his backhand and gave everyone a fist. When the applause stopped, he jumped down from the table, walked to the Li family's table, and sat down again.
"You really live up to the saying, 'We should treat each other with admiration after seeing each other for three days.' I didn't expect that after a year of not seeing each other, you would actually practice such a unique skill." Li Zhenzhen raised her bead-like thumb and praised.
"There was no way. If I couldn't imitate this unique skill at that time, I couldn't take Luo Xing away." Zhao Zhengdao.
"Not only is this a unique skill, I can see that the sword moves you showed just now are also quite sharp, and you have a hint of inner strength. It seems that your cultivation level has improved a lot. Tell me, what level of cultivation have you reached now?"
"It has reached the fourth heaven." Zhao Zheng replied truthfully.
"You have also reached the fourth heaven?" Li Zhenzhen was quite surprised. "I thought you were only a little above the third heaven, but I didn't expect that your cultivation level is as high as mine."
Zhao Zheng originally wanted to say something teasing, but seeing that the two knights were sitting next to him, he did not dare to make any mistakes. He suppressed this thought and continued honestly: "You practice three days in the summer and three nines in the winter. I finally lived up to this."
Thanks to the hard work, I can say that I have reached the fourth level of heaven."
"When we met, I was in the third heaven and you were in the second heaven. I was much better than you. I didn't expect that time would pass by and that when we met again, you would be on my level. If we meet again next time, is it possible?
Will you surpass me?"
"Haha, you can't say that for sure."
"That's not okay, I can't let you surpass me." Li Zhenzhen said childishly.
"Practice hard if you are afraid of being surpassed by your peers. What's the use of just talking about it." Li Yuanzhan took the opportunity to teach him a lesson. Seeing his daughter being overtaken by a waiter in an inn, he, as a father, felt a little hateful.
Iron cannot become steel. But at the same time, he had to look at Zhao Zheng with admiration.
Being able to practice from the second heaven to the fourth heaven in just over a year is already a very fast pace of cultivation. I am afraid that not many young people in the entire world can do it.
"Zhao Zheng, you must have heard about the emergence of Zichu Sword while you are out there. Now that your martial arts skills are not bad, and you like to use swords, do you want to go to Luoshu Villa with me to try your skills? We are a family of three.
The purpose of this trip is to take me to Luoshu Villa to get the token for participating in the competition." Li Zhenzhen heard that Zhao Zheng had reached such strength, so she naturally brought up this topic.
Zhao Zheng was stunned for a moment, and then he figured out the purpose of the Li family's outing. Unexpectedly, Li Zhenzhen also wanted to participate in the competition to win the Zichu Sword.
Li Zhenzhen specializes in using swords and comes from a martial arts family. It is reasonable for her to want to compete for Zichu Sword. However, Li Zhenzhen is not included in the list that Zhao Zheng knows. I am afraid that even if Li Zhenzhen goes, it will be in vain.
.
He knew these words in his heart but could not say them out loud.
"I do want to capture the Zichu Sword, but there is no need to go to Luoshu Villa because I just came from there. As for the token, I have already obtained it." Zhao Zheng wanted to show the token to the Li family
, but the brass lump has already been stored in the system warehouse and cannot be taken out in public.
"Have you got the token?" Li Zhenzhen was surprised again. Zhao Zheng brought her too many surprises today.
"Senior Sword Slave has set up a dead-end sword formation in Luoshu Villa. Whoever can break through the sword formation will get the token. I was lucky enough to get through and got one of the twenty-three tokens. I will take it.
I came down and was planning to go to the Sword-making Villa to participate in the arena competition to compete for the Zichu Sword. If you can also get the token, we can talk about it in the arena in the future."
"I can't believe that more than a year ago you were a waiter at an inn, and more than a year later you are already a young swordsman who is passionate about the world." Li Zhenzhen said with emotion.
"Yes, time has changed, the sea has changed, and who can predict the events in the world? Maybe in a few years, I can become a famous hero like Li Daxia." Zhao Zheng was filled with pride for a moment, and he was speechless.
Zheba said such big words.
Although it was a big statement, no one had any doubts about it.
Zhao Zhengneng became a young swordsman from a waiter in a shop, and he can also change from a young swordsman to a great hero in the future.
At his age, he is at the age where he can create miracles and achieve brilliance.
The heroes who are now famous in the world were just fledglings back then.
Looking at Zhao Zheng sitting next to him, Li Yuanzhan vaguely saw himself when he was young.
He is upright and passionate, acts uninhibitedly, and is full of enthusiasm for life. No matter how many times he hits the wall, he will not look back. Even if he is covered in blood, he can still talk, laugh, and sing over wine.
"Well said! You should have high aspirations when you are young. If you don't have any ambition at all, what's the difference between you and the old man." Li Yuanzhan suddenly became interested, summoned the waiter, ordered a pot of strong wine, and drank with Zhao Zheng.
Pour a glass and drink together.
Zhao was a junior and immediately offered a respectful toast.
This group, one big and one small, one old and one young, each held a wine glass, touched it lightly, and drank it all in one gulp.
When the strong liquor enters the throat, it brings the taste of the rivers and lakes, as warm as the light of swords, and the aftertaste is like lingering grudges. After all the feelings disappear, all that is left is pleasure. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote
