The protagonist crossed over unexpectedly, the system was dumbfounded, and the protagonist was confused. One system exists to survive and live more comfortably, while the other tries to avoid havin...
Ye Zi chuckled mischievously:
"Not really. Like I told them, holding a knife is knife technique, and holding a sword is sword technique."
They're actors; when filming TV dramas, they just act casually and pretend.
Ye Qingshan smiled and said:
"Hopefully they'll only be used when filming TV dramas, otherwise it will really be misleading young people."
"Don't worry, Dad. They're celebrities. They have dedicated security personnel when they come and go. It's not their place to do anything."
Besides, what era are we living in now? Martial arts are more of a gimmick than a practical skill.
"Even the most skilled kung fu master can take someone down with a single shot; that's not just empty talk."
Siqin glanced at the video playing on her phone. Ye Zi was leading Huang Jingyu and Er Ya in practicing martial arts, each carrying two wooden sticks, and they were doing a pretty good job.
He confirmed again:
"You really don't know martial arts?"
Ye Zi nodded, then shook her head and said:
"I didn't know how before, but I do now. After all, I racked my brains to come up with those moves. I don't know if they're practical or not, but I think they're pretty impressive."
Ye Qingshan watched a few videos, heard Ye Zi bragging, raised his hand and slapped him, saying:
"With the strength in your arm, even a clumsy punch would be a top-notch style of boxing."
Ye Zi chuckled, while Siqin frowned and said:
"Why is there another 'Turtle Fist'? And the name doesn't sound like a good martial art at all, it sounds like an insult."
Ye Qingshan stared blankly at his wife. Ye Zi gestured for his wife to explain herself.
Ye Qingshan explained in a very serious manner:
"Turtle fighting is a popular style of boxing, and I know it too."
This time it was Siqin's turn to be surprised, and she asked in confusion:
"How come I've never seen you practice boxing all these years? When did you start learning?"
Ye Qingshan suppressed a laugh and continued:
"This set of boxing techniques is something you're born with; to put it bluntly, it's just clenching your fists and swinging them around randomly when you're fighting."
After hearing what "Wangba Fist" was, Siqin looked at her husband with a dangerous glint in her eyes.
Ye Zi had already guessed what would happen next. Her mother was probably going to test the power of this innate boxing technique, and the only test subject could be her father, Ye Qingshan.
Taking advantage of the lull before her mother could act, Yezi took off running to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Just as I stepped out of the room, I heard Siqin call out:
"Old Ye, why don't you try my natural boxing style? Watch my punch."
Ye Zi grinned. He knew he had passed the test. From today onward, he was Ye Zi, the son of Ye Qingshan and Siqin, no longer a transmigrator who had usurped the place.
Listening to her parents' playful banter inside, Ye Zi felt a pang of envy. The two childhood sweethearts, now married with children, were still just like they were when they were young, even in middle age.
Ye Qingshan and Siqin played around for a while inside the house. Then, the couple sat down hand in hand. Ye Qingshan pulled up a video and said:
"My son probably doesn't know martial arts, otherwise he wouldn't have used this move."
Siqin looked at her phone, which was playing a video of Ye Zi attacking a wolf with a wad of phlegm.
Siqin said with a look of disgust:
"That's a bit disgusting."
Ye Qingshan nodded and said:
"It is indeed a bit disgusting. Anyone who knows a little martial arts would not have done this."
"So, the son is still the son, only he went to the wilderness and became stronger, and his personality changed a bit?"
Ye Qingshan nodded and said:
"Young people should interact more with their peers. Although he is our son, we don't have many common topics, so he seems a bit dull."
After spending two months with people my own age, I'm much more cheerful now."
Siqin nodded and said:
"If we had discovered it earlier, we should have pulled the internet cable back from the beginning. He could still go online and interact with people, instead of being bored. He might even have a girlfriend by now."
"You really want a grandson, don't you? You're always thinking about your daughter-in-law."
…………
After giving her parents a satisfactory explanation, Ye Zi felt inexplicably relieved; the biggest problem she had encountered since her transmigration was finally solved.
With internet access now available at home, Yezi can speak freely in chat groups.
His chat group only has three people: Ye Zi, Huang Jingyu, and Er Ya.
Upon learning that Ye Zi's family was building a villa, Huang Jingyu requested to see the progress via video call.
Ye Zi confidently held up her phone to show Huang Jingyu and Er Ya, and gave a brief explanation of her design.
Yellow Whale also has his own mansion, but it's a ready-made one, which is completely different from Ye Zi's self-designed one.
The yurt type of dwelling was not unfamiliar to Er Ya, but the yurt that Ye Zi was building was too big, which also aroused Er Ya's curiosity.
After a brief introduction, Yezi showed the two her family's livestock and grassland on her phone.
After the presentation, the three chatted. Er Ya had taken on a TV series, a period drama. This time, she wouldn't be playing a lady from a noble family, but rather the daughter of a military family. It just so happened that the martial arts moves she had learned from Ye Zi in the wilderness would come in handy.
Although there aren't many action scenes, at least we don't have to learn and film on the spot anymore, and the number of times we use stunt doubles will also decrease.
This is a good thing for Er Ya, because it broadens her acting range and is good for her future development.
Huang Jingyu expressed his envy, saying that he also got a role in a drama and wanted to take on a period drama role, even if he couldn't play a chivalrous hero, he could at least play an ancient soldier.
Unexpectedly, the promised period drama only lasted for a few decades. While it did meet the requirement of depicting soldiers, it still featured soldiers wielding guns and engaging in bayonet charges with the enemy.
Er Ya joked:
"Old Huang has abandoned you in his life except for the role of a modern soldier."
Huang Jingyu had no choice but to accept roles for modern military dramas; his acting career seemed to be tied to his identity as a soldier.
Seeing the distressed look on the yellow whale's face in the video, Ye Zi could only offer words of comfort:
"That's good too, after all, everyone already remembers you."
Liu Xiao Ling Tong only played Sun Wukong in his entire life, but now when people mention Sun Wukong, he is the first person they think of.
Mr. You's portrayal of Ji Gong is also unforgettable.
Mr. Yan Guanying's image as a traitor who sought to save the country through indirect means is equally memorable.
For actors, success isn't about playing a wide variety of roles; it's about being memorable.
Old Huang's image as a soldier is deeply ingrained in people's minds. If you were to ask who plays a modern soldier most convincingly, many people would think of him.
Just like Li Yunlong, the first thing that comes to mind when people hear this name is the character portrayed by Li Youbin.
After Ye Zi finished speaking, Huang Jingyu and Er Ya were stunned. After a long while, Huang Jingyu finally said:
"Ye Zi, although you're not in the entertainment industry, you have a very clear understanding of the acting profession."
“That’s right. At least Lao Huang has a military image. When it comes to modern soldiers, everyone can think of him. I’m in a bad situation. It seems like I don’t have any particularly memorable roles.”
Not only Ye Zi, but even Huang Jingyu couldn't accept this, because Er Ya really doesn't have any memorable characters.
