Chapter 402: Visitors at night
The moonlight is like water, the sky is like ink, and a crescent moon hangs in the sky. The light moonlight dissipates, adding a touch of soft light to the yard.
Lanterns are hung on the corridors and dripping eaves in the yard, so the light in the yard is not dim.
Su Chen sent Xu Cainu away, practiced swordsmanship in the yard for a while, and insisted on it every day without stopping. This is his way to save his life and should not be slackened.
In ancient times, the law was not so perfect, and criminal investigation methods and technical activities such as coroner were relatively backward. Therefore, every state and prefecture accumulated some unsolvable murders, missing cases, etc., and the news was blocked and unfavorable traffic affected the case resolution and the maintenance of justice.
These are all things that cannot be done. Su Chen lives in this era and wants to save his life. In addition to mastering power and wealth, he is also prone to having enough self-protection in emergencies.
In addition, practicing martial arts can also strengthen the body. In ancient times, there were no special medicines, good anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, etc., and scanning instruments without the initiative, and it is easy to die if you get infected with wind and cold. Therefore, practicing martial arts can strengthen the body's functions and avoid fever and colds.
Su Chen used a knife in his hand and unfolded the Hu family's sword technique. His steps were erratic and his sword was powerful. White lights flashed around him, making him extremely cold.
"Kill! Kill!"
Su Chen kept shouting lightly, using the knife became more and more skillful. He was practicing the knife alone, but it was like fighting, breaking the wind quickly and fiercely.
Cut, cross cut, rotate, obliquely chop...
The sword technique is exquisite, open and close, very practical, and not too fancy.
This is what Su Chen has learned after many actual combat killings.
Without such a sword technique, it would be difficult for him to escape danger in those few dangerous times.
Therefore, he became even more determined to practice sword skills.
At this time, a hunched figure walked out of the corridor of the yard. It was Hu Bo, who was holding a wine pot in his hand. After taking a sip, he looked at Su Chen, nodded slightly, and also discovered Su Chen's progress.
When Su Chen completed the sword technique three times in a row, he held the knife and stood up, his momentum was steady and his posture was upright, and his whole body had a kind of explosive power.
"Yes, it seems that this trip to Jinling has gained a lot. It has changed for you in just one month."
Su Chen looked at Hu Bo. Although he didn't know his specific origin, since he got along very well with Ling'er and seemed to have a distant relative, he also maintained this respect for Hu Bo.
"There are indeed some situations, but they are all very dangerous. They were almost attacked and killed several times, so they have some more insights."
Thinking of being intercepted and attacked several times, fighting between life and death, it is extremely dangerous. Only after the disaster can one experience the value of life and understand more things.
Swordsmanship and martial arts are also included.
Hu Bo nodded and said, "Well, on the edge of life and death, it can indeed stimulate potential. Now your breath is no longer empty, your feet are rooted, your middle plate is steady, your arms are strong, and your strength is used to pinch and pinch it accurately, making the knife more and more introductory."
Su Chen smiled and nodded. He could still inspire him by gaining recognition from the old man.
"By the way, Hu Bo, what other sword techniques can you continue to teach me?"
Hu Bo shook his head and said, "Just concentrate on practicing a sword technique. At least this year, you have been doing this. Only by practicing it until you are too mature and you can control it to the point of being small. If you are perfect and you can understand some of the killing moves of the Hu family's sword technique, will this stage of perfection of sword technique be."
Su Chen sounded quite mysterious, but unfortunately he couldn't understand it now. He shook his head and said, "It's a bit profound, so I have to accept it slowly."
Bo Hu took a sip of wine, sucked his lips, and said with a sneer: "Practicing martial arts and swords can not be achieved overnight. Without long-term accumulation, without hard practice year after year, day after day, how can you practice kung fu and comprehend the deep truths and techniques in it!"
After saying that, Hu Bo turned around and left, saying no more.
He was far less careful in teaching martial arts to Su Chen than to Yang Ling'er. Su Chen also realized this, this is a real relative.
At this time, a servant who was guarding the gatehouse came to report that someone came outside the door to ask for a meeting.
Su Chen showed some dissatisfaction: "It's midnight, who is still here to disturb me so late?"
"Yes, it's the eldest lady of the Bai family..." the servant reported truthfully.
"Miss Bai family... Su Su, is she here so late?" Su Chen was a little surprised, but the relationship between them was special, so he immediately asked the servants to open the door.
If it is during the day, Bai Susu can enter the mansion without having to pass it on.
But at this moment it was night, and the three o'clock in the middle of the night, the servants didn't dare to make decisions, so they ran into the courtyard of the mansion to ask the head of the family first.
Su Chen said awkwardly: "Miss Bai is not an outsider, please come in quickly."
"Yes!" The servant hurried back to the doorman.
Su Chen hesitated for a moment, put the knife in the sheath, placed it on the weapon stand, and then walked to the front door to greet him.
Bai Susu, dressed in a long light green dress, is noble and elegant. Under the reflection of the big red lanterns hanging on the eaves, her skin is white and red. When she comes here with stars and moon, she is like a flower bud blooming at night, bright and gorgeous.
"Su Su, why are you here so late?"
"I just finished my business and checked the accounts in the restaurant. I heard Bai Lang talk about you, so I want to come and visit you immediately."
"Are you worried about me?"
Bai Susu was slightly stunned, but she didn't expect Su Chen to suddenly mention this topic.
"Is there a little bit!" Bai Susu answered calmly.
Su Chen asked with a smile: "Hehe, I haven't seen you for a month. Do you miss me? Come here in such a hurry!"
"I miss Qingqing."
Bai Susu mentioned Qingqing, which was one of the reasons why she was rushing to come to Su Mansion, but perhaps it was not the most important one.
But Bai Susu didn't want to admit it so easily, nor would she cooperate with Su Chen's proud expression.
Su Chen told the truth directly: "Qingqing has drunk too much tonight and has already fallen asleep. Do you want to wake her up?"
Bai Susu was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised, but the corner of her mouth was filled with a smile that was not easy to detect. She nodded and said, "Since she has gone to bed, I won't call her anymore. Please chat with me for a while. I'm very interested in talking about Jinling!"
