Cao Xu saw Liu Heng lowering his head dejectedly, and his stiff voice became a little softer, "As long as you continue to maintain this enthusiasm for practicing martial arts, and add my guidance, you will definitely achieve great results over time."
Liu Heng raised his head and said seriously: "I will definitely follow the teacher and study hard."
Cao Xu nodded with satisfaction and said: "Your foundation is not weak. It can be seen that you have put in some hard work on the foundation. But the hard work on the foundation should not be wasted. Instead, you should practice more diligently.
From now on, every day, you first practice the basics with Cao Yi and others for half an hour.
You can also learn from their basic skills.
In the next half hour, I will teach you the complete Tang Shou again, and also teach you some weapons by the way."
The techniques for training the foundation are very similar, so it is not a secret that is not passed down.
But you can't exercise casually. If you don't have anyone to guide you, you can easily injure your body if you exercise without instructions.
What Cao Xu asked Liu Heng to learn was the method used by Cao Yi and others to practice basic kung fu.
Liu Heng bowed respectfully to Cao Xu, "Thank you for teaching me!"
After Liu Heng returned to Kou Ji, he said to Kou Ji who looked surprised: "I originally wanted to practice martial arts diligently and give my father a surprise. Now it seems that I have overthought it."
Kou Ji slowly came back to his senses. When he heard this, he couldn't help but comforted: "It's already very good. You are willing to work hard, and now you have met a teacher who is proficient in martial arts. If he teaches you, you will definitely become better."
Head further."
Liu Heng nodded slowly, then looked at Kou Ji and asked, "Fourth brother, you don't know martial arts?"
Zhao Yiyi covered his mouth and snickered: "He must not understand..."
Kou Ji glared at him and said calmly: "Who said I don't understand?"
When Zhao Yiyi and Liu Heng heard this, they stared, "Do you know martial arts?"
After a brief moment of shock, Zhao Yiyi looked at Kou Ji with suspicion.
Kou Ji still looked calm.
Cao Xu on the side said coldly at this moment, "Do you want me to invite you out?"
Kou Ji could only bite the bullet and step forward.
"For what?"
Cao Xu asked with a frown.
Kou Ji clicked his lips and said, "Knife..."
After a pause, Kou Ji added, "A real knife, a straight knife. The blade has been removed, leaving only the handle and blade."
When Cao Xu heard this, he was stunned.
He glanced at Kou Ji in surprise, but said nothing. Instead, he ordered someone to get a real sword.
He took matters into his own hands and disassembled the blade on the knife.
"Why……"
Kou Ji sighed.
He really doesn't understand martial arts.
But he knows how to cut it.
That was when he entered the counterfeiting business and offended someone. After being taught a lesson, he found a master and learned it specially to save his life.
He still remembers what the master said when he taught him.
"Kou Ji, you are not young now, and it is too late to learn martial arts. No matter how hard you try, it will be difficult for you to succeed. For the sake of your sincerity, I will teach you a sword.
This sword is called the common man's sword.
The common man became angry and blood spattered five steps forward.
There is no regret when the sword comes out.
Either you die or someone else dies."
The knife was handed to Kou Ji by Cao Xu.
Kou Ji held the knife and took a few deep breaths.
Looking around, I saw a lantern in front of Wende Tower.
Under the gaze of everyone, Kou Ji walked over with a knife.
He walked closer to the lamp and closed his eyes.
"suck……"
"call……"
Kou Ji's eyes opened suddenly, full of determination.
The knife comes out.
The knife rises.
The knife falls.
"Danglang~"
The blade broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.
"Boom~"
The lamp was split into two halves in the middle and fell to the ground.
Zhao Yiyi, Liu Heng and others opened their mouths and looked at Kou Ji stupidly.
Cao Xu froze on the spot.
After a long time, I heard him murmur: "When a common man is angry..."
There was nothing special about Kou Ji's sword in his eyes.
It's just an ordinary sword, but it can barely be fast, accurate, and ruthless.
But Kou Ji's decisiveness in using the sword surprised him.
He had only seen that kind of look in his eyes when he was fighting for his life on the battlefield.
However, Kou Ji's sword left a deep impression on Zhao Yiyi and others.
That's a lamp carved from a single piece of bluestone.
Cut in two.
If they went up to chop it, they would at most leave a slash mark on the lamppost.
Kou Ji cut it open with one stroke.
How could they not be surprised.
Kou Ji threw away the remaining hilt of the knife in his hand, walked to Cao Xu, cupped his fists and said, "Teach me, I'm done."
Cao Xu came back to his senses, glanced at Kou Ji thoughtfully, and said, "This sword...is not bad. From now on, you will follow Cao Yi and the others to build up your foundation together."
"Thanks for the teaching."
Kou Ji returned to Zhao Yiyi and Liu Heng.
The other little guys also came over.
Zhao Yiyi was shocked and said: "It's so amazing..."
Liu Heng stared at his eyes and asked urgently: "Fourth brother, have you ever killed anyone?"
Kou Ji slowly shook his head.
Liu Heng became anxious and shouted: "That knife of yours was fast, accurate and cruel. I think it was aimed at killing people. And I have seen that look just now. When my elder brother was fighting for his life."
, it’s that look.”
Zhao Yiyi didn't understand this, but he pretended to understand and nodded.
Kou Ji rolled his eyes and said calmly: "Killing is illegal."
Liu Heng pouted, "My father often kills people..."
"My fourth uncle also often kills people..."
"My brother also often kills people..."
"My dad too..."
"My father also killed..."
"My father often kills..."
"..."
Cao Yi, Zhao Yiyi and others followed and started making noises.
Kou Ji glanced at them and said calmly: "I'm from Huazhou..."
Liu Heng, Cao Yi and others were stunned.
After figuring out the meaning of Kou Ji's words, they all rolled their eyes.
"Have you said enough?"
Cao Xu growled with a dark face.
Liu Heng and others quickly returned to their positions and stood up.
Kou Ji stood there and let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, there is no shame...
In the past, he had not been able to cut the stone so smoothly. He might not be able to cut it off even if he slashed it a thousand times.
The fact that I was able to hit the target with one blow today is all thanks to that sword.
It’s also the credit of the lamp.
The lamp has been baked by lamp oil and exposed to wind and sun all year round, so it is probably somewhat softened.
Although it's embarrassing in front of a group of little guys, it's nothing.
But he has to maintain his image in the minds of these little guys.
These little guys are destined to be stationed in the imperial court in the future.
The image left in the minds of these little guys now will most likely determine their attitude towards him in the future.
He rubbed his numb palms and slowly stood up straight.
Cao Xu began to teach them one by one their martial arts skills and how to hone their basic skills.
Training the foundation and building up the strength is a hard work that requires time and accumulation and cannot be accomplished overnight.
After Cao Xu finished giving instructions, he asked Kou Ji and others to start training their foundation.
Under the guidance of Cao Xu, Kou Ji and others officially embarked on the path of martial arts.
From that day on, Cao Xu would come over and teach them martial arts for an hour every morning.
After that, life in the palace went as usual.
There is just one more martial arts to learn.
Seven or eight days have passed in a flash.
One day, when Kou Jijian woke up, he saw Chen Lin excitedly approaching him.
Before Kou Ji could speak, Chen Lin took the lead and said, "Kou Shidu, the prince's health has improved a lot..."
Kou Ji was stunned and asked, "Have you checked it?"
Chen Lin nodded heavily and said: "On weekdays, the prince can't eat, sleeps lightly, often wakes up, and is listless all day long. Recently, he can eat and sleep, and he is full of energy. Yesterday, in Concubine Yang's palace, there were many people
After eating two bowls of rice, Concubine Yang was very happy.
She asked someone to check and found that the prince's health had obviously improved.
She also said that there will be a big reward for you later."
Kou Ji nodded slowly.
"Then please thank my empress for me..."
At this point, Kou Ji paused, looked at Chen Lin, and said teasingly: "In order to help the prince to remove the poison, you often shouted at me to kill me. Now that the prince has improved, you don't plan to
Compensate me?"
Chen Lin was stunned and said quietly: "We are just slaves... How can we ask slaves for compensation?"
Kou Ji squinted and said, "When you shouted at me before to beat me and kill me, you didn't think of yourself as a slave."
Chen Lin smiled dryly and said: "How about... let's spend two days at our house and take you to see a big show to make up for it?"
Kou Ji said unexpectedly: "Big drama? Is there still a big drama in the palace?"
