The old man still sells wine in his seventies, and there are thousands of pots and jars of flowers at the door.
The elm pods along the road are as clever as money. Are you willing to pick them and sell them for wine?
——"Asking the Man from Huamen Restaurant" Cen Shen (Tang Dynasty)
…
After consultation between Bai Fu and all the hall leaders, many adjustments were made to the teaching contents of the two camps.
Surprisingly, the first class in the Assassin Camp was a calligraphy class!
…
At dusk that day, after a day of copying calligraphy, all the disciples of the Tang Sect were so tired that their backs ached, and they felt that it was more strenuous than a day of fighting.
Tang Lanzhou collapsed on the wicker chair and complained: "Where is this assassin camp? People who don't know think it is the Hongwen Pavilion!"
Tang Jingqiu said: "Keep your voice down. If General Bai hears it, be careful to punish you. It is said that this course was requested by him."
Tang Lanzhou muttered: "Third sister, it's not like you don't know that since I was a child, I haven't loved music, chess, calligraphy and painting. I only like flying over eaves and walls, dancing with guns and sticks.
Now I practice this ghost-drawing talisman every day and I am bored to death. Is it possible to decapitate the enemy just by writing?"
Tang Lanzhou was talking happily when he suddenly realized that everyone was silent. Only the younger sister Tang Kou kept blinking at him.
When Tang Lanzhou stuck out his tongue, he felt that something was going to happen to him.
When he turned around, he saw Bai Fu standing at the door of the study with a smile, and behind him were the two frowning heads of the Tang Sect.
Bai Fu walked into the study, greeted everyone cordially, and exchanged pleasantries without mentioning anything about what had just happened.
Tang Ju, the leader of the hall, said: "Each of you, please write down your name so that General Bai can recognize you."
Tang Lanzhou thought to himself: "This is terrible. I expected to get through with my face covered, but now I was caught red-handed."
Bai Fu walked past the desks of each disciple, asked about their welfare, picked up the pen, and copied their names again next to their written names, as if to deepen his memory.
Bai Fu walked up to Tang Lanzhou, held up the calligraphy that Tang Lanzhou had been copying for a day, looked at it carefully, and smiled without saying a word.
Tang Lanzhou rolled his eyes and muttered: "My word is Dog Paddle. If you want to laugh, just laugh. No need to be sarcastic. I can bear it!"
The leader of the hall, Tang Ju, scolded: "You are so outrageous, why did you talk to General Bai!"
Bai Fu smiled and waved his hand, indicating that it didn't matter.
Bai Fu picked up the pen, splashed ink, and wrote dozens of words next to Tang Lanzhou's copybook. Bai Fu put down the pen, smiled at Tang Lanzhou, and then continued to inspect the next door.
When Tang Ju, the hall leader, walked to the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around and said to everyone: "You all should take a good look at what General Bai wrote to you. Don't be unconvinced!"
Only then did everyone realize that there must be a reason why Bai Fu left the message. They were curious and hurriedly checked.
A scream was heard, and a Tang Sect disciple shouted: "General Bai's handwriting is exactly the same as mine!"
After the window paper was pierced, the other Tang Sect disciples also compared the handwriting one by one and shouted one after another: "It's exactly the same as my handwriting!"
Everyone gathered around Tang Lanzhou's desk and saw two pieces of rotten calligraphy like dog plows on the desk. The two pieces of calligraphy were exactly the same, and it was impossible to tell which was Tang Lanzhou's and which was Bai Fu's.
Tang Jingqiu suddenly realized it and revealed the secret: "It is said that General Wei Xiaokuan of the Western Wei Dynasty was particularly good at imitating other people's handwriting. During the war with the Eastern Wei Dynasty, he forged official documents and letters from the enemy's general Niu Daoheng to create a counterinsurgency plan. In the end, he defeated the enemy without spending a single soldier.
Niu Daoheng was captured.
General Bai asked us to practice calligraphy, this is probably his intention!"
…
The subsequent inspection was an eye-opener for Bai Fu.
Thanks to the several volumes of "The Divine Strategy of Marquis Wu" that Bai Fu obtained from Liu Bei's tomb, the weapon research and development of the Tang Sect has reached a new height, which is completely different from when he was practicing in the Tang Sect. New weapons and hidden weapons
They are springing up like bamboo shoots after a rain.
The disciples of the Tang Sect showed Bai Fu the latest equipment of night walking clothes, climbing hooks and locks, various assassination weapons, poisons, anesthetics, Mongolian perspiration and other medicines.
Among them, thunder bombs and trace fire bombs modified from firecrackers aroused Bai Fu's great interest.
Thunder fire bombs are firecrackers with steel balls inside. Although their lethality is generally limited, if they are thrown to the eyes of the enemy and horses using the Tang Sect hidden weapon technique, even if the enemy is wearing heavy armor, they can still hit people and horses.
His eyes were severely damaged.
Tracing bombs are used for escaping, and are particularly effective in the dark. Once thrown, a strong flame will instantly explode within a range of ten feet, producing a huge sound and a pungent smell. It can dazzle the enemy, cause ringing in the ears, and temporarily cause deafness and blindness.
Destroys the hound's sense of smell.
What shocked Bai Fu even more was the Tang Sect's unique art of disguise, which, through a series of complex makeup techniques, could make a person look like another person, and even change gender, voice, height, and fatness.
In the next few months, Bai Fu humbly asked for advice and learned the use of new weapons and other unique skills of concealment and assassination from Tangmen, and he quickly became comfortable with them.
Teaching and learning were mutually beneficial. While studying, Bai Fu discussed ways to improve with his Tang disciples.
Among Bai Fu's original Qing Gong, there is a body method learned from Flea, which can skillfully use internal force, abdominal and leg muscles. Once used, one can move several feet in an instant.
Combining this technique with fire-tracing bullets can increase the chance of successful escape several times. Bai Fu passed this technique on to the Tang Sect, and his disciples were overjoyed.
The leader of the hall, Tang Ju, said to Bai Fu: "The biggest weakness of Tangmen disciples is that they rely too much on weapons. Once they fight with bare hands, their combat effectiveness is greatly reduced. Bai Shaoxia is very powerful in martial arts. Please teach us more fist and kick skills."
Bai Fu nodded in agreement.
Three days later, Bai Fu combined swordsmanship with Shaolin fists and feet to create eighteen styles of unarmed grappling and fighting techniques.
Make full use of your fingers, palm edges, elbows, knees and other parts to attack the enemy's throat, spine, lower body and other vital points. Defeat the enemy with one move and kill him with one blow.
The moves designed by Bai Fu are clean, sharp, fierce, and extremely suitable for spies and assassins. They are highly praised by Tang Sect disciples.
At the end of the story, Bai Fu said: "There is another part of our body that, if used well, can be regarded as a deadly weapon."
After that, Bai Fu pulled out a hair from his head and twisted it in his hand with two fingers. The true energy from his fingertips surged to the hair, and the hair was as hard as steel wire.
Bai Fu used his hair to move back and forth, and easily opened the shackles and handcuffs used for demonstration.
Bai Fu flicked his fingertips, and his hair flew out like a silver needle, nailing a buzzing fly to a beam.
Such domineering and powerful strength made all the disciples stunned.
Tang Ju, the leader of the hall, sighed: "Young Master Bai, we don't have as strong innate power as you. Although this method is clever, it is difficult for us to do it."
Bai Fu nodded and said: "I realized softness from Gao Lishi's whisk and Wu Daozi's brush.
I teach you how to use Zhenqi in one way. You can gather Zhenqi in your hair for a moment. If you use water to moisten your hair, although it will not reach the strength of Gangqi, it still contains strong internal energy. If you use it correctly,
You can use softness to overcome strength, and at critical moments, you can unleash an unexpected blow."
After that, Bai Fu asked Tang Huan, who was at the helm of Chang'an of the Tang clan, to demonstrate.
I saw two people pretending to be jailers and tying Tang Huan to a torture device. Tang Huan pretended to be injured and fainted, shaving his head and leaning on it.
A jailer cursed and poured a ladle of water in front of Tang Huan's door, trying to wake him up.
Tang Huan's eyes suddenly opened, his head and neck shook, and his wet braid was suddenly thrown out like a whisk, hitting the jailer's chest in the middle of the body. The man fell down at the sound.
Before the other person could come to his senses, his long hair like a python whip wrapped around the person's neck and pulled him to Tang Huan's side. Tang Huan's neck exerted force again, and the person's eyes began to turn white, and he slowly collapsed to the ground.
…
Such a way to get out of trouble is incredible.
The usually supple black hair, under the gentle strength imparted by Bai Fu, resembles a tiger's tail, like a snake's python, and turns into a long whip with infinite power.
In a life-and-death fight, this is an indefensible weapon! (To be continued)
