The fat guy held the knife and played with it for a while, then brought the knife in front of me, indicating that I should also play with it. 0
"How about it, do you like it? Want to give it a try?" 0
As he spoke, the fat guy had already handed the knife to me. 0
 
 
Just as my hand was about to reach the knife, the fat man suddenly tightened his grip on the knife and, with a very agile and elegant footwork, skillfully dodged me. In the blink of an eye, he had moved three meters away from me. And with a confident look on his face, he said: 0
 
 
"Hey, never lend out your knife or your woman. Other than that, everything's negotiable." 0
The fat man's graceful movements, combined with his earlier lines, resembled the demeanor of a martial arts hero in a wuxia film, exuding a certain air of nobility. 0
I never would have expected that someone with a physique like the fat man's would one day be associated with words like 'agile' and 'elegant.' 0
 
 
I am not angry about Fatty's refusal to lend me the knife, after all, it is his master's family heirloom, and it is only natural not to let outsiders touch it. However, I am more interested in the set of body techniques that Fatty just unintentionally displayed. So I said, "Who cares about your broken knife, don't bother lending it. But Fatty, the set of body techniques you just used looks really awesome." 0
 
 
Fatty didn't get angry when I called his Peerless Treasure Sword the Broken Blade. Instead, he smiled and said, "You're talking about that footwork just now. That's one of the four levels of footwork in my Ma Family Swordplay, the 'Flash' technique. It's the most basic footwork. If you want to learn, I can teach you." 0
 
 
I was a bit speechless when the fat guy continued to act all high and mighty. But I also wanted to know what exactly this so-called "The Four Body Postures" was all about. So I deliberately said, "Hey, fatso, don't overdo it. Know when to stop showing off." 0
 
 
The chubby guy was obviously irritated by my words and immediately said impatiently, "Hey, I'm telling you, little buddy, if you don't understand something, don't pretend to be an expert. The fourth-level body technique in my Ma Family Swordplay advances step by step, which means the higher you go, the more awesome it becomes, but of course, it also gets harder to practice." 0
 
 
Fatty sheathed his knife and began to earnestly explain, "The so-called evasion technique is essentially about avoiding enemy attacks, used for escaping, especially in close combat with the enemy, allowing them to completely miss your body. There used to be a martial art called 'Eighteen Falls by Adhering to the Clothes,' have you heard of it?" 0
 
 
I nodded, and Fatty continued, "The flashing technique of my Ma Family Swordplay is derived from it, with body movement and shadow change, transformation and evasion, hiding sharpness and shifting. However, this is just borrowing the flashing technique from it. As for the attacking technique, it was created by my ancestor." 0
 
 
The " Transformation style " goes further on the basis of the "Flash Formula." The "Flash Formula" requires constant movement, with flexible and varied body positioning. On the other hand, the " Transformation style " is exactly the opposite. It does not involve moving around, but rather emphasizes the concept of "turning." Simply put, it means standing in place and allowing the enemy to attack, while the body makes corresponding dodges, reaching a state where the enemy cannot harm oneself no matter what. The "Soaring Formula" can be understood as the technique of leaping, commonly known as lightness skill. 0
 
 
Light skills are divided into two types. One type emphasizes running speed and flying close to the ground, known as "Grasshopper flying" and "water rafting." The other type focuses on ascending, with "Wudang Stairs in the Clouds" being the best example. As for my Ma Family Swordplay, the skill of "teng" combines the strengths of these two types of light skills. When mastered, one can leap to a height of five to six meters and a distance of over ten meters. 0
 
 
Finally, there is the "Nu Zi Jue," which combines the previous three body techniques and is activated by internal force. Have you seen "Duan Yu's 'Lingbo Weibu'" in " Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils "? Once the body technique of "Nu Zi Jue" is mastered, it is like "Lingbo Weibu," agile and elusive, making it difficult for enemies to harm or catch up. 0
 
 
"Practicing to the highest level can even lead to teleportation," I sighed after listening to the fat guy talk so much. "Damn, it turns out this fat guy wasn't just showing off earlier. These are all genuine martial arts secrets." 0
 
 
Although I don't quite understand, it feels really awesome. 0
So I made a meaningful "oh" sound. 0
Then I said, "Wow, is it that awesome? What level have you reached?" 0
 
 
Fatty didn't expect me to suddenly ask this. He could only smile awkwardly and say, "I practiced the basic Flash Spell for 20 years before mastering it, and I haven't even touched the threshold of the second-level Transformation style." "Damn, you're already so awesome with just the basic level," I exclaimed in amazement. "If you master the highest level, wouldn't you be able to reach the sky?" 0
 
 
"If you really want to master the highest level of footwork, reaching the heavens may be a stretch, but instantly going upstairs is definitely no problem," the chubby guy said nonchalantly. 0
"In fact, this kind of footwork is more suitable for those with a petite figure and light weight. Especially for those girls with long legs, slim waist, and perky buttocks, and especially those who can dance, they are the best candidates to practice it." 0
 
 
In history, there was a girl, called... what was her name again?" 0
The chubby guy couldn't remember for a moment, scratching his head. 0
I tried to supplement, "The Han Dynasty's Zhao Feiyan?" 0
 
 
"Ah, yes, it's that Zhao Feiyan, who can perform the palm dance. It is said that she has practiced a similar kind of lightness skill. Tsk~ Lao Bai, it's you with the good memory and education. 0
 
I'm just stuck at the basic 'flash' technique for twenty years because of my body limitations. Now I'm still stuck at the bottleneck of the 'turn' technique, haven't even touched the threshold. I'm afraid I'll be stuck in there for the rest of my life." 0
 
 
"Hey, don't be disheartened, maybe one day you'll break through the bottleneck." 0
I then said, "By the way, I heard you just referred to this kind of kung fu as Ma Family Swordplay. Isn't your surname Shao?" 0
The chubby guy glanced at me and replied, "My master's surname is Ma. He's the one who taught me all these skills." 0
 
 
When I was young, my family was poor, and my parents died early. By the time I had memories, I was already practicing martial arts with my master. Later, I only completed junior high school and didn't graduate. In your cultured terms, what do you call that, "dropping out," right?" 0
I corrected him, saying, "It's called 'leaving school early'." 0
 
 
"Ah, it's all the same anyway, just so-so," the chubby guy chuckled. 0
After finishing talking about the chubby guy's situation, he turned to ask me. 0
"So, Xiaobai, why don't you talk about your past? Come on, tell us, what's going on in that head of yours that makes you so capable?" 0
 
 
I smiled and said, "My brain is just as normal and intelligent as yours, it's just that sometimes your brain's intelligence isn't online." 0
The fat guy burst into laughter after hearing this. 0
I continued, "Actually, my background is similar to yours. I've never seen my parents either." 0
 
 
I grew up in an orphanage since I was young. The director's surname was Hao, and he raised me single-handedly. After graduating from college, I visited the orphanage a few times. But in the past two years, Director Hao passed away, and I haven't been back to the orphanage since. 0
 
 
Xiao Tian is watching us chat so enthusiastically that she has already gone to the kitchen to cook. While we were having a great time chatting, she had already brought the food to the table and even brought a bottle of wine. It seems that Xiao Tian is quite considerate since she turned over a new leaf. 0
 
 
Fatty listened to me talk about my past while munching on a few peanuts. He said, "So Little Bai, you've also had a tough life. It seems we really are kindred spirits. To meet in such a crappy environment, it must be fate. Here, let's have a drink." 0
 
 
While the fat man was talking, he had already picked up the wine glass in a hearty manner. 0
I don't usually drink, but seeing the fat man so excited, and feeling a bit high-spirited myself, I decided to join him for a drink. 0
After a few drinks, the fat man started to get a bit tipsy. 0
 
 
Xiao Tian just got up and is about to go check if the food in the pressure cooker is ready. At that moment, Fatso made a mischievous smile and pinched her on the butt, causing Xiao Tian to let out a coquettish cry. I blushed and couldn't help but laugh at Fatso's lewd behavior. 0
 
 
Fatty heard me laughing, turned his head to look at me, propped his chin, and with a sudden recollection in his eyes, said, "Hey, Xiaobai, why are you laughing? That night I gave you a signal to team up and go for a fight, why didn't you go?" 0
I stuffed two pieces of braised beef into my mouth and said, "I'm not like you, an old lecher. I have no interest in that kind of debauchery." 0
 
 
The fat guy took another sip of wine, burped, and said, "Damn, what's that? Ah~ the ancient... the ancient people said, right? What's wrong with having sexual desires? It's just a normal need like eating and sleeping, how can you say it's a bad interest?" The fat guy licked a tender abalone with his tongue, then sucked it into his mouth, and continued, " 0
 
 
"In my opinion, you might still be a pullet, right? You definitely are a pullet, haha!" 0
Fatty and I were having a great time, drinking and joking around. 0
Xiao Tian came over from the kitchen with a big pot of chicken soup. 0
 
 
She happened to overhear what Fatty said, so she smiled and corrected him, saying, "It's not 'what sex what color,' it's 'food and sex are also human instincts, like drinking water and eating, it's a common human desire.'" When Fatty heard Xiao Tian say this, he immediately laughed in surprise. 0
 
 
"Hey! I didn't expect it, Sweetie, you're actually quite cultured. Looks like I need to thoroughly study you inside and out again tonight." 0
The chubby guy's teasing made Xiao Tian blush uncontrollably. Although she hadn't been drinking, her face was already flushed. 0
The chubby guy took a sip of chicken soup and turned to me with a smile. 0
 
 
"Hey, where were we in the conversation? Oh, right, pullet. Sweetie, my buddy Lao Bai is still a pullet. You've got to use your excellent professional skills to help my buddy break out of his shell and overcome his shyness." As he spoke, this chubby guy kept pushing Xiao Tian into my arms. 0
 
 
I didn't expect Xiao Tian to stumble and sit directly on my thigh. I quickly helped Xiao Tian stand up and awkwardly said, "No no no, please don't. Don't listen to this guy's nonsense. He's drunk and starting to talk nonsense." 0
 
 
Just like that, they continued to eat, drink, chat, and joke around for a while before finally ending the lively gathering. After dinner, Fatty took advantage of the alcohol and the fact that Xiao Tian had already gone to the room, and was about to start practicing some vigorous activities in bed. Because I had also had some drinks, I went to bed early. 0
 
 
I was awakened by the extremely soul-stirring moans from the next door until four thirty in the morning, so I got up and went to the living room to have a glass of water. Suddenly, I heard a very faint sound of footsteps mixed in with the sounds of the next door room. They were coming from downstairs. 0
