The busy day passed like this. Zhao Zheng was lying on the wooden bed, looking sideways at the moonlight outside the window. His heart was full of emotions. Although his body was exhausted, his spirit was still in a state of excitement and he could not fall asleep.
This small room was specially prepared for the waiters. Except for Song Kuaizui, the eldest waiter, the other three waiters lived here, crowded under the same roof. The other two waiters fell asleep not long after they lay down. , snoring quite noisily, only Zhao Zheng was still awake.
Zhao is thinking about stealing the "Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing". This task line is divided into several steps. The first step is to become the waiter of Hongchen Inn. This has been achieved. From now on, it is time to focus on the second step. Step two.
If you want to steal the "Nine Meridians and Six Elements Sutra" from the person in the evil way, the first condition is that the Qinggong reaches a certain level, otherwise the stealing will not be successful. If the person in the evil way is alerted in the process of stealing, Not only will you not be able to steal the secret book, but you will also lose your life. You really can't be careless.
The innkeeper Shen Luoxia knows a middle-level Qinggong called "Luo Yanbu". Only by learning this Qinggong from her can we meet the conditions for stealing the "Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing".
To please Shen Luoxia and learn the "Luo Yan Step" from Shen Luoxia is the second step of the task. This step is easy to say but very difficult to do.
Shen Luoxia will not teach others "Luo Yanbu" for no reason. Unless he can become her apprentice or establish a very deep friendship with her, there is no way.
In the game, it is easy to please Shen Luoxia. You only need to complete a few tasks issued by Shen Luoxia and trigger a hidden plot. However, in reality, it is not that easy. Not to mention Shen Luoxia She would not let Zhao Zheng do something for no reason. Even if she really asked Zhao Zheng to accomplish something, Zhao Zheng didn't have the strength now, so he could only find another way.
Regarding the matter of pleasing Shen Luoxia, Zhao Zheng didn't think of any good ideas for the time being, so he could only put it aside for the time being. He would work hard here first and get familiar with the environment here.
Zhao Zheng was thinking hard until this point, and sleepiness finally appeared. His mind became heavier and heavier, and he fell into sleep unconsciously. In the dream, he dreamed of his former family and friends, as well as his previous living environment. He thought He wanted to reach out and touch those familiar scenes, but those scenes were getting further and further away from him, until they disappeared.
…
Time flies, years fly by, and seven days have passed in the blink of an eye.
During these seven days, Zhao Zheng went to bed early and got up early every day, working from morning to night, and was exhausted every day. Due to his hard work and hard work, he had been recognized by shopkeeper Shen and became an official waiter in the inn.
Although the work at Hongchen Inn is hard, it is also a good training. In addition, the food here is very good, and every meal has meat and vegetables. After these days, Zhao Zheng has become a little stronger and has gained weight. I lost some weight and my cheeks became plumper and rosier.
The life here is definitely a hundred times better than wandering outside. It's no wonder that so many people want to be waiters in this shop.
These days, whenever they have free time, Wang Er or Song Kuaizui will take the time to teach Zhao Zheng, telling him some rules in the inn or on the rivers and lakes, as well as the prices of various dishes. Zhao Zheng has learned very carefully and has already taught Zhao Zheng I remember the price of the food, and I recite it in my mind every night to deepen my memory.
However, Wang Er and Song Kuaizui did not mention the shady things about this inn, apparently still treating Zhao Dang as an outsider.
Zhao Zheng knew that it was only a matter of time before these people showed their cards against him, and he was already mentally prepared.
In fact, although Hongchen Inn is a black shop, it has its own principles. It will not kill innocent people indiscriminately, but only kills those who deserve to be killed. In the game, only players with negative good and evil values will be attacked here.
Players with positive values will not encounter any trouble here and will be entertained.
Because of this, Zhao Zheng chose to join the Hongchen Inn. He came here not only because of the "Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing", but also because the people in this black shop were all righteous people.
In addition to Zhao Zheng's work and study life, something worth mentioning happened in this inn these days.
The shirtless man who ordered "Wedding Night" has never come out since he entered the female shopkeeper's room, and has disappeared since then. Since no one is there, the money and luggage left behind will naturally be used by the inn.
The room where the shirtless man had stayed had already been vacated, waiting for the next guest to check in.
The shirtless man was traveling alone without a companion. After his disappearance, he did not attract much attention. Only a few people mentioned it. Whenever anyone asked, shopkeeper Shen claimed that the shirtless man was there after the spring supper that night.
He left overnight. The other guests had no friendship with the shirtless man, so naturally they would not inquire in depth, and the matter soon fell into disuse.
Except for this shirtless man, no one else has gone missing among the guests staying in the hotel these days. The charming female shopkeeper also stopped and stopped trying to seduce the guests in the store. This shows that the crime was committed in this black shop.
The frequency is interval, and every once in a while, a single customer will be selected to start.
…
In the early hours of this morning, it was still dark, and even the usually diligent rooster had not crowed yet.
After a night of washing, the heat in the air has subsided a lot, with a hint of coolness. The night sky is clear and cloudless, and the waning moon hangs above it, quietly emitting a bright light. The earth is silent, and there is something in the forest in the distance.
The light of fireflies flickers on and off at several points.
The night in this world is clean and pure, without any noise.
Zhao Zheng opened his eyes drowsily. He was awakened by the urge to urinate and planned to go to the latrine for a while. He sat up in the dark, grabbed his clothes and put them on his body. Under the dim moonlight, he walked to the table and took the
A bamboo tube-shaped fire fold appeared.
Zhao Zheng opened the lid of the huozhezi and blew on it hard. Sparks immediately ignited inside. He used this spark to ignite the celadon oil lamp, and a larger fire light lit up, illuminating the room.
It was a small room. On the other two beds, the two waiters slept like dead pigs, snoring and snoring.
Zhao Zheng held a simple celadon oil lamp in his hand, and under the light of the light, he left the house, walked through the corridor, and arrived at the backyard from the back door. As soon as he walked out of the back door, he saw a figure in the open space in the courtyard.
This man was squatting in the night, motionless, with several small sandbags hanging on his arms, swinging leisurely in the air. Because it was too dark, his face could not be seen, and he could only vaguely see the helmet on his head.
Wearing the waiter's hat.
There are only four waiters in Hongchen Inn. Besides Zhao Zheng, there are two more who are sleeping. The only remaining waiter is Song Kuaizui, the eldest among the waiters.
Judging from the posture, Song Kuaizui should be doing a horse stance.
All martial arts are the result of hard work. It is normal for martial arts practitioners to get up early to practice. It is not surprising to see Song Kuaizui practicing at this time.
Song Kuaizui had obviously noticed someone coming into the courtyard, but he ignored it and continued to practice without even looking back.
Zhao Zheng looked at Song Kuaizui who was walking forward, and immediately came up with the idea of learning martial arts from Song Kuaizui. Whether it was to activate the sleeping system in his mind, or to learn the "Nine Meridians and Six Yuan Jing" in the future, he had to work hard to learn martial arts.
Only then. Martial arts is the most urgent need for him at the moment.
In the game, you only need to click the mouse and keyboard to release martial arts. Although Zhao Zheng has played "Jianghu Jianghu" for several years, he actually has no martial arts attainments at all. If he wants to learn martial arts, he has to start all over again.
Among the people in the inn, Song Kuaizui is cheerful and talkative, and he is relatively easy to talk to. Asking him for basic martial arts is a good choice. If you ask other people for advice, you will probably hit a wall.
After making up his mind, Zhao Zheng took the oil lamp and hurried to the latrine to solve the three urgent problems. Then he went straight to the backyard to strike up a conversation with Song Kuaizui.
Since Song Kuaizui was practicing in such a public place, he was naturally not afraid of being seen. It would not be considered stealing if he joined in, and he would not break the rules of the world.
Zhao Zheng held an oil lamp and walked up to Song Kuaizui. He saw Song Kuaizui was stuck in a horse stance, his body was shaking slightly, and there were a lot of sweat beads on his forehead and temples.
Song Kuaizui is about forty years old. He is outspoken and talkative. He is the most talkative person in the inn. He has taught Zhao Zheng the most these days, and he has become quite familiar with Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng put the celadon oil lamp on the ground and stepped forward to greet him: "Good morning, Brother Song. Looking at your posture, you must be practicing kung fu, right?"
"It's not a practice, do you think I'm taking a shit?" Song Kuaizui is indeed Song Kuaizui, and he is not forgiving when he speaks.
Zhao Zheng knew that Song Kuaizui always spoke like this, so he didn't care. His smile did not change and he said: "Haha, then I will train with you. My body and bones are not as good as yours now. If I can train my body better, I will be able to do it."
I'll share some more chores with you, Brother Song." After that, he imitated Song Kuaizui's posture and squatted down, stretching his arms forward.
Zhao Zheng kept saying that he would share the chores with Song Kuaizui. If such words fell into Song Kuaizui's ears, of course he would find them sound.
"You are good at talking. When you come to the front hall in the future, you will definitely be able to be a good waiter in this shop." Song Kuaizui said while maintaining a striding posture.
"Haha, I still can't remember all the food prices now. When I do, I will definitely go to the front hall to help you."
"It's not difficult to memorize the prices of vegetables. You can memorize them with a little effort. Your biggest problem now is that you don't have enough arm strength. When you are a waiter, you have to be responsible for serving food. It's not a big deal to serve one plate of food, but it will be difficult to serve more. Just rely on it.
Your small body must be too much for you." Song Kuaisui glanced at Zhao Zheng beside him with a look of disdain.
"My arm strength is not strong enough, how should I exercise? Please give me some advice from Brother Song." Zhao Zheng withdrew his flower stand and made a long bow to Song Kuai's mouth.
"Hey, you open your mouth and shut up and call me big brother. I can't let you call me brother in vain, so I'll teach you some basic kung fu." Song Kuaizui shook his arms, gathered the sandbags on his arms into his hands, and then stood up
Got up.
"Thank you, Brother Song, for your advice." Zhao Zheng raised his eyebrows in joy and made another long bow.
"Let's just practice as we say. Once you get your posture right, I'll tell you how to practice. The posture you just put up is full of loopholes and it's not right at all." Song Kuaizui put ten sandbags on his shoulders and waved to Zhao Zheng.
.
"Yes!" Zhao Zheng was very thirsty for knowledge about martial arts. Even if he learned some superficial kung fu, he felt very happy. He followed the instructions and once again put on the zamabu posture. Although it looked stylish, there were many differences in the details.
Error in place.
"The Kung Fu I practice is called 'Zha Ma Gong'. It is the most superficial internal martial arts method in the world. Once practiced, it can condense internal strength and strengthen leg strength. Don't look at this internal martial arts method as simple and superficial.
, everyone can do it, but if you work hard to practice, you can still achieve great achievements, which should not be underestimated. Moreover, the cultivation method of this mental method is very stable, and there will be no danger during practice, unlike those evil mental methods.
, you will easily become possessed while practicing.”
Song Kuaisui shook his head and explained Zha Ma Kung, then circled around Zhao Zheng and took up the teacher's role.
"When practicing Zha Ma Gong, the most important thing is the standing posture. There is a set of tricks in this regard, which are 'head hanging', 'zhongzheng', 'back pulling' and 'breast holding'. Follow these tips and the posture will be right."
It can’t be wrong.”
Whenever Song Kuaizui said a trick, he stretched out his hand and tapped Zhao Zheng hard. His fingers fell on Zhao Zheng's head, neck, back and abdomen respectively. His hands were very strong, so he pressed harder on Zhao Zheng.
, Zhao Zheng naturally changed his body posture in response to this.
After Song Kuaizui's instructions, Zhao Zheng's posture suddenly became much more standardized.
Not long after Zhao Zheng squatted, he felt the peculiarity of Zamabu. His legs felt vaguely laborious, and his waist began to heat up due to the tightness.
Song Kuaizui looked at Zhao Zheng who was squatting down, nodded and said: "Well, the posture is basically correct now, but there is still one thing missing."
"What's missing?" Zhao Zheng asked.
"Two sandbags missing!" Song Kuaizui said and hung two sandbags on Zhao Zheng's arms respectively, making it more difficult to do the Zama Step. He explained, "Practice the Zama Kung Fu can only improve the strength, but for the
The improvement in arm strength has little effect, so I have to tie additional sandbags on the arms. Only in this way can the arm strength be exercised. You have just started practicing, so I will tie you two one-pound sandbags step by step."
The weight of two kilograms may seem inconspicuous, but if it hangs on the raised arms for a long time, it will become a heavy burden. After a while, Zhao Zheng's arms began to swing up and down, and sweat appeared on his forehead.
beads.
As a mental method of internal strength, Zha Ma Gong not only has skills in practice postures, but also has skills in breathing and exhalation. Otherwise, no matter how long the Zha Ma Gong is performed, it will not make any progress in internal strength.
Song Kuaizu walked around Zhao Zheng, explaining the breathing method as he walked.
Zhao Zheng adjusted his breathing according to this method. He didn't feel anything at first, but after a while, he found that there was an extra bit of strength in his body, the burden on his arms was also reduced, and the amplitude of the shaking decreased instead of increasing. Martial arts such as this
Something really magical.
Zama Kung Fu is a hard skill with no shortcuts. If you want to achieve success, you can only learn and practice step by step. Song Kuaizui spent half an hour teaching all Zama Kung Fu to Zhao Zheng. After that, he
Continue to practice, hang the remaining eight sandbags on your arms, and squat side by side with Zhao Zheng.
The two men, one senior and one young, practiced hard in the yard, and time passed quietly as sweat dripped down.
