The evening breeze is lingering, the moonlight is dim, and the courtyard of the Xu family's old house is showing.
Xu Shu held a long sword and was stabbing at a piece of papyrus fixed on the tree trunk.
With a swish, the long sword thrust out, the paper torn, and a shallow white mark was printed on the tree trunk.
Jian Chi shook his head, "The sword power must be fierce, the sword intention must be empty, come again!"
Xu Shu continued to swing his sword.
According to the requirements of the sword fanatic, Xu Shu must practice until the tip of the sword pierces the paper and only breaks a small hole. The paper must not crack, and there must not be a single mark on the tree trunk.
"...To practice swordsmanship, you must first practice boxing. Practicing swordsmanship is actually equivalent to extending your arms to practice boxing. The essence of swordsmanship is an extension of boxing...
Master the looseness, lightness and flexibility, the strength of the wrist is crisp, use softness to become strong, use hardness and softness to complement each other, use softness to overcome hardness, use the body to assist the sword..."
Sword Chi is definitely a rare and good teacher. He has been practicing swordsmanship for seventy years, and his understanding of swordsmanship and sword theory is beyond Xu Shu's imagination.
What time has given to sword enthusiasts is not only profound sword knowledge, but also rich experience.
With this teacher around, Xu Shu's many detours in practicing swordsmanship were avoided.
Less than half a month passed in a blink of an eye, and Xu Shu made rapid progress.
He has easily surpassed the stage of pricking paper and advanced to pricking cowhide.
His outstanding talent greatly surprised the swordsman.
In the end, only one-tenth of the twenty kilograms of paper he had prepared was used, and Xu Shu achieved the level that Jian Chi hoped for him to achieve.
In this half month, Xu Shu's understanding of the principles of swords far exceeded what he gained from comprehending the sword intentions that Lou Hanche left in his sea of consciousness.
Now, he felt that every step he took on the sword was extremely solid.
Unlike Kongzi who understood the meaning of the sword, although he gained something, he always felt that he was high and had nothing to rely on.
Of course, he did not spend all of this half month on sword practice.
When Tian Shen asked him to write an article, he also dealt with it and successfully published one, which received a good response.
After Tian Shen sent someone to inform him to speed up the pace, he never bothered him again.
To Xu Shuna's surprise, half a month had passed and there was still no news about Duan Kuohai, and Qin Bing was nowhere to be found.
On the contrary, after Li Junhai came out of quarantine, he came to see him twice, both times to give him gifts and to establish a relationship.
Xu Shu accepted the gift with a smile and did not keep him waiting for long, but concentrated on practicing his sword.
As the principles of swordsmanship gradually became more fluent, his understanding of the swordsmanship and swordsmanship that Lou Hanche had imprinted in his mind was accelerating.
And this understanding was positively reflected in his performance of the tasks assigned by Jian Chi.
With repeated positive promotion, his swordsmanship improved rapidly.
Even the sword fanatic sighed again and again, "If I had your talent, after seventy years of practicing swordsmanship, I would have become a god by now."
Xu Shu ignored the words of praise and just followed the steps explained by Jian Chi carefully, proceeding step by step.
On this day, he was wearing cowhide at home, and Su Mingyue came over and begged him to go shopping with him.
Xu Shu was so elegant, but he couldn't afford to spend as much time as Su Mingyue, so he had to start a three-wheel drive and drive her to the most prosperous Donghai Road.
After shopping for a long time, Su Mingyue just bought some little girl's accessories and ate some snacks, spending less than half a yuan.
"Mingyue, my uncle makes a lot of money by giving tutoring lessons. I don't need you to save money for me. After shopping for a long time, I didn't even spend enough on gas for this trip. Who are you looking down on?"
Xu Shu expressed dissatisfaction.
Su Mingyue smiled crescent moon, "Shopping is about mood. Playing with my uncle is very fun. I don't have anything to buy."
Let's go, let's go to Lan Xueyuan, maybe we can catch up with filming."
Reluctantly, Xu Shu had no choice but to launch his third round and kill towards Lan Xueyuan.
Lan Xueyuan is located in the north of the city. It was originally a farm. Later, talkies became popular in movie theaters.
Chunshen is a famous city in the Great Zhou Dynasty, an important economic and cultural town, and has always been the film center of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After the advent of talkies, people from all walks of life regarded them as gold ingots.
Movie theaters and production companies have sprung up in Chunshen.
If there is demand, there will naturally be supply.
I don’t know when Lan Xueyuan developed into a film and television base.
During busy times, more than a dozen movies are being shot there at the same time every day.
Making movies is a lively event in itself. One movie can cause such a big trend, let alone more than a dozen.
Over time, various film-related industries in Lanxueyuan have developed, and it has become a lively place in Chunshen.
In the third round, when we were still more than 300 meters away from the core area of Lan Xueyuan, we couldn't move at all.
The bustling crowd put Xu Shu in a dilemma.
He tried to move the car to the side, and then he and Su Mingyue got out of the car and walked.
The gadgets Su Mingyue bought should be stored in a store nearby.
Walking through the streets and alleys, I was dazzled.
Especially when there was an explosion scene, it was packed with people.
Su Mingyue was jumping and screaming, so Xu Shu had no choice but to escort her all the way up to a rooftop to preserve her sight and get a full view of the explosion scene.
Taking a closer look, the male protagonist is none other than Si Fengchen, an old acquaintance. The already handsome young man, whose face has been made up to look more like a painting, is saying goodbye to the female lead affectionately.
Suddenly, there was an explosion. The female lead pushed Si Fengchen away and was shot through the chest by a bullet.
The first female follower rushed forward immediately, while Si Fengchen drew his gun handsomely, and the bullets were flying amid the billowing fireworks.
When sending Zhang Xing off to join the army, Xu Shu and Si Fengchen had a conflict in the waiting station hall because of a group photo.
Su Mingyue had a bad impression of Si Fengchen, but it was always difficult for children to maintain their three views for a long time, and it was easy to follow the five senses.
No, Si Fengchen's handsome appearance and handsome shooting immediately caused Su Mingyue to scream loudly.
In fact, it wasn't just Su Mingyue who was screaming, the whole place was filled with screams, so much so that Xu Shu had to cover his ears.
After half an hour of hard work, the explosion scene was finally finished.
When Xu Shu helped Su Mingyue climb down the roof, he caught a glimpse of the female lead's follower flipping his hair out of the corner of his eye. He felt happy and quickened his pace. With a slight hook, he unloaded Su Mingyue to the ground.
Then someone shouted, "Mingyue, Mingyue..."
When Su Mingyue saw that man, she jumped and shouted.
But he met Su Mingyue's good friend Ah Ruan by chance.
Back in the station waiting hall, Xu Shu and Ah Ruan also met.
"Hello, uncle."
Ah Ruan obediently bowed to Xu Shu.
Although at first, after Xu Shu left, she clamored to be Su Mingyue's aunt.
But the little girl is not stupid. Knowing that Xu Shu has such energy, she can only try to respect her.
"Hello, Ah Ruan. Mingyue, you and Ah Ruan go shopping. I'll find a place to rest. When you're done wandering, you can wait for me at the parking place, or you can go back by yourself."
As he spoke, Xu Shu stuffed five silver coins into Su Mingyue's pocket.
Su Mingyue couldn't resist, so she waved to Xu Shu, pulled Ah Ruan and quickly rushed into the crowd and disappeared.
Xu Shu walked towards the west corner of the theater. A guard who was watching the performance rushed over to stop him. Xu Shu took a dime ticket.
Chang Hu's face immediately changed, "Please, just go ahead and watch as you like. If you need anything, call me at any time."
Soon, the number one female attendant, who was eating his lunch, stopped eating and stared at Xu Shu.
Xu Shu walked closer and sat on the steps beside her.
"You are really amazing, how did you recognize me?"
The number one female attendant put down her lunch box, her eyes full of inquiry.
Xu Shu smiled slightly and stretched out his hand to tease his temples.
He had a small head, and when he made this move, he was actually a bit charming, which made the number one female attendant burst into laughter, and he was full of charm.
"Miss Yan, how about eating this for lunch? It's too miserable."
Xu Shu glanced at the lunch box. The staple food was brown rice, and the side dishes were a stir-fried loofah and a stir-fried cabbage stick. There was no meaty taste at all.
"It's good. I've lost weight recently."
Yan Zi picked up the lunch box and took a big bite, "I have two more scenes in the afternoon. If you have something to do, leave as soon as possible. Don't waste my time."
Xu Shu clicked his tongue and said, "I don't know, I got to play the leading female role for you, and you plan to hang out like this? I admit that you have great stage talent and first-class acting skills, but playing a small role is not a long-term solution."
Yan Zi chewed the cabbage hard, "Who can be a bit player all their life? Why can't I be a star?"
It's not like you haven't seen Si Fengchen's battle before. He is a wealthy businessman who talks and laughs, and has many dignitaries in his dealings.
Besides, there is no shame in eating based on your ability. Why, do you look down on actors?"
Xu Shu waved his hand, "Young Master is on the line. What I mean is that you are showing off your talents here.
Besides, in this world, if you want to get ahead in any profession, you will have to fight tooth and nail, but I don’t know if you, Miss Yan, are prepared."
As he spoke, with a smile on his face, he pointed to the west, where a fat, strong man with a big belly was walking towards this direction.
The strong man had sparse hair on his head and his eyes were dirty, and he was always glued to Yan Zi.
He is a well-known steward here, his name is Zhang Biao, and he has always been accustomed to being in awe.
In order to get involved in the entertainment industry, Yan Zi did not dare to look ugly even if she put on pretentious makeup. She also wore rough clothes to cover up her elegant figure, otherwise she would really outshine the heroine.
Zhang Biao held two boxes of lunch in his hand, stepped forward with a smile, and handed one to Yan Zi, "Xiao Xu, come and eat this. Are you satisfied with this role?"
No matter how many people came to me, I didn't give them anything.
Who can be hurt, my brother has a clear mind."
"Thank you, Brother Zhang. I will be your host another day and treat you to a drink."
Yan Zi said with a smile, and took the lunch box, which was filled with chicken legs and braised pork.
"Why do you want to change the day? It's better to choose a different day. Just tonight. How can I be willing to ask my sister to pay for it? Hey, where are you from? Why have I never seen a pony, a pony..."
Only then did Zhang Biao find Xu Shu next to Yan Zi, and he suddenly felt unhappy.
The field guard who let Xu Shu in earlier ran over and apologized without any words, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Brother Zhang, don't worry, I'll drive you away immediately."
As he said that, he patted Xu Shu on the shoulder and said, "How did you sneak in? You don't have eyes, so get out of here."
While scolding, he winked at Xu Shu.
"Brother Zhang, this is my little brother, coming to see me..."
Yan Zi tried to smooth things over.
Xu Shu was not happy, "I can be who I am."
With a gentle pull, Chang Hu spun around and fell to the ground.
"Oh, there are really people who dare to call me in my territory."
Zhang Biao got angry and said, "Come on, come to me on horseback. Someone will cause trouble."
Yan Zi sighed and glanced at Xu Shu angrily. Shi Shiran sat down and ate the meaty box lunch instead.
Unexpectedly, he opened the lunch box and was picked up by Xu Shu, "I'm still hungry. You're a big girl and you don't control your figure well. How dare you eat a double portion?
By the way, would you like to lend me something and say hello to me?"
Xu Shu took the chicken leg in his mouth, pulled it gently, and sprinkled a large piece of meat.
Yan Zijun blushed, knowing that Xu Shu was talking about her false surname of "Xu".
