The battle between Ah Fei and Jing Wuming was not exciting at all, there was nothing to describe.
If I have to put it forcefully, it can be summed up in one sentence: The two of them quickly poked back and forth with their swords, and after a few moves, both of them were injured, and it was over.
If we have to exaggerate the tragedy of this battle, we can sum it up in one sentence: the two men's robes were stained with blood, and their sword-holding hands were seriously injured.
What worried Li Jiang did not appear, and Jing Wuming kept the secret of the sword in his right hand.
With the main force injured and internal instability, the Money Gang dropped their harsh words and retreated.
The three of them continued south.
Ah Fei finally opened his heart and recognized Li Jiang as his friend.
The external manifestation is that he allowed Li Jiang to treat his injuries and also used Li Jiang's holy healing medicine: Xiao Huan Dan.
He couldn't use it because his right arm was injured and the muscles and veins were injured, and the homemade gold sore medicine didn't have that effect.
Of course, if he didn't approve of Li Jiang, he would rather lose his arm than use it.
Li Jiang was very clear about this, so he had no intention of claiming credit, and his attitude towards him remained the same.
On the way to Xiangshan, Ah Fei became even more silent. He often didn't speak for a long time, and sometimes he didn't pay much attention to his questions.
Long Xiaoyun didn't understand and asked his master for advice.
Li Jiangdao: "Yun'er, what is your biggest support?"
Long Xiaoyun blinked his eyes and said without thinking: "It's the master!"
"I'm talking about you!" Li Jiang said angrily.
"Oh, is it my clever mind?" Long Xiaoyun said confusedly.
The corner of Li Jiang's mouth twitched and he said helplessly: "Okay, even if you have a smart mind. Then think about it, what will happen if you become an idiot one day?"
"Then, why not die?" Long Xiaoyun hesitated.
"By the way, your Uncle Fei is in this situation now." Li Jiang said, stroking his hands.
Long Xiaoyun said: "I understand, master. Uncle Fei's biggest reliance is his fast sword, and the fast sword requires his right hand to use, so he was depressed after being injured."
Li Jiang nodded with a smile.
Long Xiaoyun asked again: "Master, will Uncle Fei's injury be okay?"
"It will be fine. Your master and I are all experts in divination and astrology, so what's the point of just damaged tendons?" Li Jiang said proudly.
"What if?" Long Xiaoyun became more motivated to study rigorously.
Li Jiang choked and said displeasedly: "There is no chance! Even if there is, he can definitely practice his left hand."
Long Xiaoyun was stunned after hearing this.
After all, Li Jiang was actually afraid that Ah Fei's right hand would never recover. After all, he thought that his medical skills were far inferior to Zhang Wuji's.
For a person who relies on fast swords for a living, almost everything is different, so Li Jiang decided to encourage A Fei to practice left-handed swordsmanship.
That night, he mentioned this matter to Ah Fei.
Ah Fei's eyes lit up when he first heard this, but soon dimmed again. He hesitated and said, "I practiced swordplay from the age of seven until I came out this year. It took a total of twelve years. How long will it take to practice my left hand again?"
Li Jiang consoled him: "It will definitely not take twelve years. You already have the foundation."
Ah Fei thought for a while, shook his head and said, "Thank you Brother Li for your kindness. I'll wait until the injury heals before taking a look. If it doesn't work, I can only ask Brother Li to help me find my parents."
What he said was a bit resigned to fate, and he was pessimistically thinking that if his hand failed to get better and he couldn't become famous, then he would lose a channel to find his parents. Wouldn't he have to rely on Li Jiang to help him send him overseas?
But Li Jiang doesn’t know where his parents have gone overseas!
Unable to make such a simple boy sad, Li Jiang pulled his head and thought of a good way.
He changed the subject and said, "Brother Shen, what did you think after you saw me wielding my two swords in Ningbo that day?"
Ah Fei recalled it and said: "Double-sword sword technique?"
"How is it different from other sword techniques?"
"The offense and defense are decent, with few flaws."
"Actually, this is not one set of sword skills, but two sets!"
"Use one for each hand?"
"right!"
"Can this be done?"
"Of course, do you want to learn?"
"I don't know how to use a knife."
"It's not the sword technique, but the mental technique of using a set of martial arts with each hand."
"Can I learn?"
Li Jiang pretended to be mysterious and deliberately lowered his voice: "This is my master's secret method. Those who don't meet the conditions can't learn it!"
A Fei asked: "Am I eligible?"
"Of course you meet the requirements. Anyone with a pure heart can learn it. Take me for example." Li Jiang pointed at himself.
A Fei looked strange and remained silent.
Li Jiang realized that he had made a mistake, laughed dryly, dipped his fingers into the tea bowl with some water, and said, "Brother Shen, pay attention to my movements."
After that, he drew a circle on the table with one hand and a square with the other.
Ah Fei's eyes widened, as if his interest was suddenly aroused, and he asked: "Is this the secret method you mentioned?"
"Yeah, how's it going?"
"Well, well...I've been able to do it since I was a child! Not only can I draw circles with one hand and squares with one hand, I can also write different characters with both hands."
"Uh, is that right? Brother Shen is really outspoken... In fact, this is just the basics. The key is how to temper the spirit later and how to mobilize the internal force to perform different martial arts."
"Oh, so that's it. How should I practice next?"
"If you come here with your ears, the Dharma will not be transmitted to the six ears."
"good"
"You must be like this...such..."
After that night, Ah Fei finally became cheerful again and took the initiative to practice martial arts.
Long Xiaoyun was very surprised and asked his master: "Master, has Uncle Fei given up treatment?"
"You don't care what other people do! How's your reading going?" Li Jiang shocked him.
"Oh," Long Xiaoyun cried out in pain, covering his forehead and said, "There will be no problem in passing the scholar examination next year."
"That's pretty much it. The Chinese New Year is about to begin. When spring begins, we will go back and take the exam for children in our hometown. But don't be careless. Memorize more books and do more question sets. Next year, try to get a small three yuan for your master. I'm trying to save face so that your mother won't say that I'm misleading someone."
"Yes, master." Long Xiaoyun walked away aggrievedly.
Money helps Xiangshan take over the helm, and Li Jiang and a bandaged A Fei appear.
Ah Fei's left-hand sword has become somewhat successful. Although it is still not as good as the previous right-hand sword, it is enough to kill some soldiers.
That night, another huge fire broke out.
Qian helped Taizhou take over the helm, and Li Jiang and A Fei, who had recovered from his injuries, appeared.
As soon as they entered the door, they noticed a difference. Instead of the gang rushing up shouting and waving weapons, a man who looked like a scribe was waiting inside.
As soon as he saw Li Jiang, he came up to him with a smile, complimented him and handed him a gold-gilded sticker.
Li Jiang was not afraid of the poison on the post, so he took it directly and opened it, only to see that there was only one sentence written on it, sixteen characters.
On the first day of the first lunar month of the coming year, I invite you to meet at the top of the Imperial City in Hangzhou.
Li Jiang shook the post and asked amidst the clattering sound: "What will happen if I don't go?"
The master smiled and said: "The Money Gang issued a general order to hunt you down with all their strength, not limited to poisoning, assassination, siege and other means. Also, Hebei Xingyun Village will definitely not leave any chickens or dogs behind."
Li Jiang chuckled and said: "Your Money Gang has almost been crippled by me. I doubt if anyone has listened to the general order you issued. And as far as I know, Xiao Li Tanhua is also a guest at Xingyun Village. I'm afraid you won't."
I’d like to go.”
The corners of the master's eyes were twitching wildly. Li Jiang was sure that he had hit their target. In the moment of embarrassment, Li Jiang spoke again, "However, I will give Shangguan Jinhong a chance. Go back and tell him that I agreed. See you on the first day of the first lunar month!"
