Chapter 057: Zhao Yun accepts the apprentice and asks for a ticket to the three rivers)
After several months of long-distance running training, coupled with nutritional supplements, Wei Ba's body has made great progress and he began to practice martial arts. As Dun Wu said, he is too old and it is difficult for him to practice to a high level.
However, it is still possible to become an ordinary master by strengthening his body, so he works very hard and spends an hour every day practicing martial arts, starting with fists and kicks, and then like Wei Wu, he starts to practice the Wei family's wood chopping knife.
Law.
But what makes Wei Ba very depressed is that in his previous life, he always heard people say that the sword skills are not difficult to practice, but he found that the sword skills he practiced were really easy.
Chopping firewood is about the same, but I can't find the feeling no matter how hard I practice. Compared with Wei Wu, he is far behind. Every time he practices swordsmanship with Wei Wu, he is greatly shocked. If he hadn't changed his mind now and is very able to persevere,
I'm afraid I gave up long ago.
Early in the morning, after Wei Wu successfully cut a thousand cuts, he happily held the porridge bowl and squatted aside, watching Wei Ba sweating like rain, while he cut, he muttered: "Three hundred and three, three hundred and three."
Four, three hundred and five..." He couldn't help grinning and said in amusement: "Brother, you don't need to count, just look at the time. You can't cut a thousand cuts without the shadow of the tree falling to the root of the wall.
"
"Shut up!" Wei Ba yelled angrily: "Save some for me. If you finish drinking all the meat porridge, see how I deal with you."
"Hehe, don't worry, I'll keep it for you." Wei Wu drank two big mouthfuls of porridge, then picked up a large cake and took a bite.
It’s all gone. In order to make you strong as soon as possible, my father spent a lot of money to get you meat and eggs every day. My eldest brother and I have never enjoyed such treatment before."
As he spoke, he knocked a chicken on the edge of the bowl. He didn't see how his fingers moved. He just wiped it twice and the eggshell was peeled off cleanly. He shook his hand and threw the egg.
In mid-air, he raised his neck, bit it, and then disappeared.
"You still know how to take advantage of me, so you are still standing by to attack me?" Wei Ba was subconsciously shocked when he saw the scene of Wei Wu swallowing eggs. Although he had seen Wei Wu do this countless times, he was still worried about this
Foodies will one day choke on a whole egg.
"I didn't hit you, I just told a few truths." Wei Wu buried his head in embarrassment and drank his porridge like a storm.
"Don't you know the truth is sometimes more hurtful?" Wei Ba was panting, and his arms were as heavy as a thousand pounds. It was difficult to lift them with all his strength. However, more than half of today's appointments were still unfinished, and he refused no matter what.
stop.
Wei Wu finished eating the porridge, took the cloth handed over by Peng Xiaoyu and wiped his mouth. He looked at the pale Wei Ba and frowned: "Brother, take a rest. Martial arts training cannot be completed in one day.
If it's too strong, it's easy to get hurt."
"No, one less chop today will mean two less chops tomorrow, and one hundred less chops the day after tomorrow."
"But……"
"No but." Wei Ba gritted his teeth, "I still don't believe it. You can practice it, but I can't?"
"That's not necessarily the case." Zhao Guang came over and caught Wei Ba's words. He smiled and said hello to Wei Wu. Even when Peng Xiaoyu saluted him, he bowed his head in greeting and then walked to Wei Ba.
, his hand gently rested on Wei Ba's right wrist. It looked light and airy, but Wei Ba couldn't move. "Let's rest for a while. Martial arts cannot be practiced in one day. It must be done step by step."
Wei Ba knew current affairs and knew how to advance and retreat, which left a good impression on Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Qiao easily completed his task and was very happy. He came to hang out with Wei Ba every now and then. He usually did not come alone, and was always around him.
There were several companions, sometimes it was Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, sometimes it was Zhang Wei, Feng Jin and others, and more often it was Zhao Guang.
Zhao Guang doesn't talk much. He always smiles and is very gentle. He is not as showy as those powerful children. Wei Ba likes Zhao Guang very much. They have become close friends with Zhao Guang over time. In the past two days, Zhuge Qiao went to escort the shipment.
When food and grass were ready, Zhao Guang would sometimes come alone.
"What do you mean, you said I'm not martial arts material?"
"I didn't say that." Zhao Guang still smiled, "I just said that you might not be suitable for practicing your Wei family's sword skills?"
"I am a member of the Wei family. I am not suitable for practicing our Wei family's sword skills. Am I suitable for practicing our Zhao family's spear skills?"
People in later generations say that Zhao Yun is a white horse and a silver spear. In fact, at this time, the most commonly used long weapons were spears and halberds, and there was no such thing as a spear. However, spears were similar to the spears of later generations, except that the spearhead was longer and heavier than the spear.
It's also harder to get up.
"You can say that." Zhao Guang pulled Wei Ba aside. Peng Xiaoyu came up and wiped Wei Ba's sweat with a wet hand towel. She raised her little face and wiped it carefully, even on her neck and armpits.
After wiping it, he handed him a cup of hot water, and then handed another cup to Zhao Guang. Zhao Guang took the water in his hand, took a sip, turned to look at Wei Ba and said: "The sword technique is about domineering. If it means sweeping thousands of people,
The army is invincible, so strong physical strength is the foundation. Without enough physical strength, no matter how hard you practice, you will get half the result with half the effort. But the spear method is not the same. The spear method emphasizes that the center goes straight in and hits the target with one strike. There is no competition with the opponent at all.
The forceful spear method is not called spear method, it is called stick method."
Wei Ba blinked and felt that what Zhao Guang said seemed to make sense.
"Furthermore, what kind of martial arts to practice is also related to each person's temperament. Wei Wu is bold by nature. He is best suited to practice this fearless sword technique. He also has enough physical strength to support him. When he comes to the battlefield, he can fight hard for half a day.
You can't do this without showing fatigue. This is not because you don't work hard, but because you don't have the foundation he laid since childhood."
Wei Ba was a little frustrated. He sat down and hung his head. Zhao Guang is the son of Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun is known as the most unfathomable general of the Shu Han Dynasty. Of course what he said is not wrong. In this way, I will definitely practice
No longer a master?
"Brother Wei, on the other hand, makes decisions before taking action. As soon as he finds an opportunity, he strikes directly at the vital point. This kind of temperament is not suitable for practicing swordsmanship, but it is suitable for practicing spears."
"Spear training?" Wei Ba smiled bitterly: "You teach me?"
Zhao Guang shook his head and said with a smile: "How am I qualified to teach you?"
"That's not for nothing." Wei Ba didn't think much about it. These days, martial arts are the heirlooms of warriors, just like the knowledge of Confucian scholars. They will not be passed on to those who are not the closest ones. Wei Yan's sword skills will not be passed on to outsiders.
Even the elite members of the Wei family cannot obtain all his sword skills. Currently, only Wei Feng has received all his teachings. Wei Wu has not learned them all. It is hard to say whether he will learn them all in the future. The same is true for the Zhao family's spear skills.
It would be very inappropriate for him to rashly ask to learn about the Zhao family's heirloom.
Zhao Guang sat on the horse that Peng Xiaoyu brought and looked at Wei Ba without saying a word. Wei Ba felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at him and rolled his eyes angrily: "Zhongde, what are you looking at?"
?Are there any flowers on my face?"
"You don't have any flowers on your face." Zhao Guang shook his head, "But you do have a rough skin."
Pupi refers to the stone skin wrapped around the beautiful jade. Wei Ba understood this meaning, but he did not understand what Zhao Guang meant. Zhao Guang said that he was a beautiful jade that had not been carved. Was he being polite or was he sincere? If he was being polite
, it seems that there is no need to say it so solemnly. But if he is sincere, he just said that he is not qualified to teach?
Wait, he is not qualified to teach, but there is someone more qualified than him. Could it be... Wei Ba suddenly became excited, and all the fatigue in his body was swept away. He raised his head suddenly, his face turned red, and his voice trembled: "
Zhong Jian, are you saying that General Zhao... is willing to..." He was so excited that his voice was a little dry, and he couldn't say the second half of the words, for fear that Zhao Guang would shake his head and fall from the clouds again.
Zhao Guang lowered his head. After a while, he raised his head again and smiled slightly. "Yes, my father has a good impression of you and wants to meet you. However, to teach you martial arts, it is not just his willingness;
Let’s see if General Zhenbei is willing.”
"How could you not want to!" Wei Ba jumped up, his face flushed with excitement, he pressed Zhao Guang's shoulders and shook him hard, dragging him away: "Zhongde, come with me, I will beg you right away.
Father, Xiaoyu, prepare a gift for me. I am going to become a disciple. I am going to become a disciple. Hahaha..."
Looking at Wei Ba, who pulled Zhao Guang stumbling and running away, Wei Wu glanced at Peng Xiaoyu and shrugged. Peng Xiaoyu was also smiling, wiping his hands on his apron, turning back and forth twice, muttering in his mouth
He said murmuringly: "Oh, General Zhao is willing to accept the young general as his disciple. This is a great thing. The gift is too light. What should I give him? I don't have anything good enough here."
"Silly girl, for such a big thing, why is it your turn to prepare gifts?" Wei Wu was angry and funny: "My father will prepare it. You prepare two good clothes for my brother and let him dress neatly.
Just go see General Zhao at one o'clock."
"Yes, yes, yes, look at me, I'm so happy and confused." Peng Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized, stroked her forehead, and couldn't help laughing.————
