Chapter 352 Showing off and breaking the skin, asking for the moon
The midsummer sun shines through the dense shade of trees and falls on the bluestone-paved courtyard. The spots are like an Impressionist painting, casual and harmonious.
Wei Ba was dressed in a plain gauze singlet with big sleeves fluttering, and he was slowly crossing his fists in the yard. He learned boxing from Zhao Yun and practiced hard for about two years. The murderous intention contained in those simple and direct boxing techniques had already been
Melted in the blood, but what he is practicing now is not the kind of boxing that is as straight as an arrow and as fast as a spear, but a new type of boxing developed from Yunshou.
Speaking of which, it's a bit like the miraculous Tai Chi in the previous life, but Wei Ba's boxing method is not that complicated. He just turns the straight boxing into a curved boxing, and turns the fixed cloud hands into moving cloud hands. His two hands are constantly moving.
Drawing circles, moving his feet forward and back at a certain pace, looking left and right. Although the moves are simple, once practiced, the power cannot be underestimated, especially when the opponent knows nothing about his boxing skills.
When Wei Ba was learning martial arts from Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun specifically said that no truly practical boxing technique would have too many movements. The simpler the boxing technique, the more powerful it would be, because when fighting the enemy, the slightest difference would determine the outcome.
It is impossible to give you too much space to make a judgment. However, the simple appearance does not mean that the kung fu is simple. On the contrary, the simpler the kung fu, the more attention is paid to the subtleties. Sometimes, the fist is an inch higher or lower.
Even an inch can make the difference between life and death.
When you practice boxing to a certain point, you will lose all your moves. The so-called new ones are definitely not new ones. Since you have lost all your moves, how can you get new ones?
The newness of boxing techniques lies in the newness of thinking.
For example, Wei Ba is now turning straight into music.
Martial arts these days are actually very simple and simple. Most of them focus on strength and speed. Whoever can develop stronger strength and faster speed is the master. The secrets of each family are not about moves, but about training.
Methods and techniques for generating energy. The techniques are clear, but the strength is invisible.
Boxing like Wei Ba's, which uses circular turns as a method of generating energy, is groundbreaking. Unless you are a master who has experienced hundreds of battles and practiced to the transformation state, you will mostly suffer when you encounter him. This is the case for Ding Feng and Wang Shuang.
Their strength is not necessarily worse than Wei Ba's, they are just not familiar with Wei Ba's boxing techniques.
Following the instinct of a technician, Wei Ba used mechanics to provide a theoretical explanation of this boxing technique. With theoretical support, the more he practiced his boxing technique, the more flavorful it became, and the more he practiced it, the more he understood it.
Now, when he practiced this boxing technique, he was as slow as flowing clouds and as fast as rolling wind and thunder, which was enough to make Ding Feng, Ling Dang and others stunned.
Not only Ding Feng and Ling Dang were amazed, but even Xia Houhui was also surprised. The first time she saw this kind of boxing was not from Wei Ba, but from Xiahou Mao. At that time, she thought this kind of boxing was beautiful, but now
Comparing it with Wei Ba, she felt that Xiahou Mao's Yun Shou practice was just good-looking, while Wei Ba's practice of this boxing technique was a combination of hardness and softness, and a balance of yin and yang.
Moreover, she seemed to feel that Wei Ba had realized something from this boxing technique.
That's right, Wei Ba has learned some truth from this boxing technique. This truth can be summed up in only four words: insinuate attack.
Just as you can make innuendoes in boxing, you can also make insinuations in political struggles.
Zhuge Liang talked a lot with him, and Xia Houhui also talked a lot with him. The starting points of the two were different, and the results were of course very different. However, Wei Ba had his own ideas. He believed that Xia Houhui would not harm him intentionally, but he knew better.
Xia Houhui is branded as a Wei State person. Regardless of whether she is married or not, she will inevitably look at issues from a perspective that is beneficial to the Wei State.
Everyone has his or her own position, and only he will consider the future from a perspective that is beneficial to him.
Zhuge Liang wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to be rewarded for military exploits and trap him in Chengdu, with Liu Chan, a useless emperor, while Xia Houhui hoped that he would use his strengths on the battlefield, resolutely grasp military power, and continuously increase his strength.
Take the road of hegemony instead of moving forward according to Zhuge Liang's plan. It cannot be said to be unreasonable, but the intention of going against Zhuge Liang is also obvious.
Wei Ba has no such plan yet. He has no intention of confronting Zhuge Liang so early. Obviously, the conditions are not suitable yet. He wants to use Zhuge Liang's fear to consolidate his foundation, but also does not want to be tied up by Zhuge Liang. He
We must find a way to make insinuations and leverage our own strength. Xia Houhui's opinions can be consulted, but we cannot be led by her. We must use her, but we cannot be used by her.
With an idea in his mind, Wei Ba practiced his boxing a little slowly. Every move seemed to have invisible resistance, making it look extremely solemn.
Looking at Wei Ba who was immersed in his own world, Xia Houhui was happy and worried at the same time. He was happy that Wei Ba could listen and understand at the same time, but he did not follow blindly. He had his own opinions and had the thinking characteristics of a strong man, but he was worried about Wei Ba.
She was still wary of her, and it was difficult for her ideas to be realized. However, despite being worried, she felt inexplicably relaxed.
Being as smart as she is, she naturally quickly understood where this kind of relaxation came from. When she thought of this, her aunt's calm face would appear in front of her eyes, and she could not help but feel happy.
Xia Houhui slowly relaxed his tense body, and quietly looked at Wei Ba, who was focusing on practicing boxing, with a warm smile on his lips.
Until this warm scene was broken by Manager Zhang.
As soon as she saw Manager Zhang's round smiling face, Xia Houhui stopped smiling. From the day she stepped into the Wei family, all the censures from Mrs. Zhang were conveyed by this Manager Zhang. Seeing Manager Zhang,
Xia Houhui would subconsciously become vigilant. But then she remembered that something was different today, and then she relaxed again and looked at Wei Ba with some expectation.
Manager Zhang did not go to Xia Houhui. He walked to Wei Ba and stood quietly aside. The smile on his face did not weaken at all, but became even brighter.
After Wei Ba waited for a while, he slowly put away his fists and asked calmly: "What's the matter?"
Manager Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and held an invitation with both hands: "A message has been sent from the Prime Minister's Mansion, please come to the house to talk about it."
Wei Ba did not accept the invitation. He took the cloth from Ling Dang's hand and wiped the slight sweat on his forehead, and asked, "Am I the only one?"
"Of course not." Manager Zhang said with a smile: "Mrs. Huang also invited Mrs. Deng, Madam Deng, and Mrs. Xia Houru."
"Did you say something happened?"
"I didn't say anything, just that the Prime Minister was taking a break and the neighbors were walking around among each other. In addition, Mrs. Huang wanted to see the young master's style."
Wei Ba smiled silently, took the invitation from Manager Zhang, glanced at it, and handed it back to Manager Zhang: "I understand, at the beginning of the afternoon, I will go to Madam's place and spend time with her.
"
"Here." Manager Zhang responded, took two steps back, and then stopped: "By the way, Madam said that we are going to pick mulberries today. Please ask Madam Xia Houru to come over early."
Xia Houhui remained motionless.
Wei Ba frowned: "What kind of mulberry are you picking?"
Manager Zhang still smiled brightly: "Young master, you don't know. The Wei family moved from Hanzhong to Chengdu. The prime minister allocated a hundred hectares of fertile land and three thousand mulberry plants, which were used to raise silkworms and reel silk to provide for the family.
For food and clothing. Now that the ant silkworms have just emerged, they eat a lot of food, so all the women in the family need to pick mulberries to provide for them. If the time is delayed, today's harvest will be greatly affected."
Wei Ba rolled his eyelids: "How many people are needed to pick mulberries?"
"Everyone who can move in the village must go." Manager Zhang smiled and said, "Madam has gone to pick mulberries herself, who else can't go?"
"Then I'm going too?"
Manager Zhang's expression froze, and he said unnaturally: "Young Master, if you have something to do, you don't have to go."
"Oh, thank you Madam." Wei Ba said lightly: "Can I please tell Madam, Manager Zhang, that I really have something to do and I can't go picking mulberries with her. In addition, my mother and she also want to come with me."
You can't go out to pick mulberries. If there is any loss, it will be deducted from their monthly money."
Manager Zhang's smile slowly faded: "Young Master, do you mean that you won't go there in the future?"
"Yes." Wei Ba nodded: "I have more important things for them to do. I will explain it to Madam in detail later, so I won't bother the steward to convey it."
Manager Zhang laughed awkwardly: "That's natural, that's natural." After saying that, he turned around and walked out. Before leaving, he took a deep look at Xia Houhui. Xia Houhui smiled slightly, calmly.
Wei Ba snorted angrily, loud enough for Manager Zhang to hear: "I'm just raising silkworms, is it necessary to mobilize so many people?"
Xia Houhui couldn't help laughing, walked to Wei Ba, and put a coat on him: "Husband, you just came back, there is no need to be so disrespectful to my wife, right?"
"I'm not disrespecting her, it's just that she messed up." Wei Ba frowned slightly: "When she was in Hanzhong, she was a very knowledgeable person. How come she did such a respectable thing when she arrived in Chengdu?
Come? Are you mulberry pickers? It’s just a show and a waste of money and money.”
"A show?" Xia Houhui pondered for a moment, then understood the meaning of the word, and couldn't help laughing: "Although it is a show, there is nothing we can do about it. The Prime Minister's wife wants to show off, how can Mrs. Zhang not accompany her?"
Wei Ba was very surprised: "The prime minister's wife also picks mulberries?"
Xia Houhui smiled and nodded: "Isn't that right? Otherwise, do you think Mrs. Zhang would be willing to suffer such hardship? Even if she is enjoying the cool air in the field, it is not as comfortable as staying at home. What's more, when the Prime Minister's wife is busy, Zhang
Madam also has to grit her teeth to accompany her. Didn’t you notice that her face turned a lot darker yesterday? You didn’t touch her hands, so you didn’t see the calluses on her hands. That’s all the work of the Prime Minister’s wife.
.”
Wei Ba's eyes widened: "So, this is how you got the calluses on your hands?"
Xia Houhui looked at his hands and nodded.
Wei Ba was furious: "The Prime Minister's wife is so angry. She wants to put on a show, so she can do it by herself. Why should she make me almost skinned? No, I will go over tonight and I will argue with her."
Xia Houhui was stunned. After a while, his face suddenly turned red with shame, and he hid his face and ran away. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
