Chapter 154 Plum Blossom Double Swords
After Old Man Luo agreed to teach her the swordsmanship, she went to the Property Management Department on time at eight o'clock every morning, practiced for four hours, went back to have lunch and take a nap, and then went to the Property Management Department at two o'clock in the afternoon to practice for another four hours.
The sword technique that Old Man Luo's ancestors taught him was the Plum Blossom Double Swords. Later, he joined the army and learned the Wuji sword technique. He then combined the two sword techniques together to create an improved version of the Plum Blossom Double Swords with even more powerful killing moves.
When Xia Xiaoman was learning swordsmanship, he found that eight out of ten moves of the improved version of the plum blossom double swords were killing moves, while there were very few defensive moves.
Using this set of swordsmanship to defend against the enemy can completely kill the opponent, but if you are not careful, you can easily be injured by the enemy.
Xia Xiaoman felt that this set of swordsmanship was very suitable for her. In her opinion, offense was the best defense. If there were too many defensive moves in a set of swordsmanship, it would be constrained when fighting against the enemy.
Xia Xiaoman was not the only one who practiced swordsmanship with Old Man Luo. Most of the second-generation military personnel in the community, both men and women, followed Old Man Luo to practice.
Wang Shijin was also among them, but he was a very busy man. He was in charge of the patrol team and had to coordinate logistics and external transactions, so Xia Xiaoman rarely saw him in the property department.
After five or six days of learning knife skills in the property department, Xia Xiaoman increasingly felt that the 20 bottles of wine she gave away were well worth it.
Here, not only can she learn the plum blossom double swords, but she can also practice fighting with others, which is much better than practicing boxing and kicking repeatedly by herself.
Every time she comes to the property management department, her favorite part is the PK session, where she competes one-on-one with other students. She enjoys each game to her heart's content, and her reaction ability has also been improved through multiple sparring matches.
At the same time, the incident of the criminals invading Shuiyue Bay through the sewers has been investigated.
The gang had participated in cleaning out nearby sewers, and during the cleanup, they memorized the layout and weak points of nearby sewers.
A few days ago, the temperature dropped and it snowed, so the sewers were opened. They took this opportunity to enter the sewers.
After observing the sewers for a day, he figured out the patrol routes and guard positions of the sewer security guards. Then he took advantage of the security guards' shift change to sneak attack the security guards and snatch their pistols.
The gang of criminals originally thought that with hot weapons, they could easily take over Shuiyue Bay, but they didn't expect that Shuiyue Bay actually had bows and crossbows. They were unable to show their heads and could only flee in panic.
But their gunshots had attracted a large number of security guards. Not long after they escaped, they were surrounded by the security guards and all of them were arrested.
When Wang Shijin came to the property department to learn swordsmanship in the morning, he told his senior brothers and sisters about this matter, "I heard that the higher-ups are going to shoot these people in the open space in front of the trading point. Do you want to go?"
"Public execution? Does the authorities want to make an example of him again?" said a senior sister.
A senior brother next to him nodded and said, "That should be the case. I heard that recently many people took advantage of the dark night to rob people everywhere, especially in the alley around the corner from the trading point. People are robbed there every day."
"You guys can go if you want! I won't go. The higher-ups want to make an example of them, but I'm not a monkey, so I won't join in the fun."
"Boy, do you know how to talk? Those who came to watch the fun have become monkeys."
In a word, he offended all the seniors who wanted to watch the execution, and the end result was that he was beaten up by them.
Wang Shijin played around with his senior brothers and sisters for a while, then turned around and saw Xia Xiaoman practicing hard on the side, and said, "Xiaoman, do you want to go and watch the execution?"
"No." Xia Xiaoman concentrated on practicing swordsmanship and didn't even look at him.
What's the fun of watching others kill people? It's more fun to let her shoot and kill people.
Wang Shijin was a little disappointed. "Okay! I was thinking that if you were going too, I could take your tricycle with me and buy some potatoes from the trading point."
"Potatoes? Are they a new variety?"
Wang Shijin nodded and said, "The second batch of potatoes has been harvested and the price is not expensive. I want to buy some more to supplement the dietary fiber." Otherwise, I won't be able to poop.
"What else besides potatoes? Are there any vegetables?" Xia Xiaoman asked.
"What are you thinking? Even if there are green vegetables, will it be our turn to eat them?" Green vegetables are a luxury product. The first batch of green vegetables grown is for high-ranking officials in Floating City, the second batch is for the troops, and the third batch is for the small leaders within the organization...
After being exploited batch after batch, there are no extra vegetables left to sell at the trading points.
When Xia Xiaoman heard that there were no vegetables, he instantly lost interest and continued to practice the plum blossom double swords.
Suddenly there was a flash of white light, followed by a deafening roar.
"Fuck, what's going on? There's thunder in the middle of winter?" A senior brother scratched his head in confusion.
“Could there be an explosion somewhere…” Before the senior sister could finish her words, another white light flashed, followed by the sound of thunder and lightning.
"Oh my god, it's really thundering!" The senior brother opened his eyes wide, ran to the window, and opened it to see more clearly. As soon as the window was opened, a gust of wind blew in violently, almost blowing the senior brother to the ground.
Seeing that something was wrong, Xia Xiaoman put on her coat and opened the door. The next second, a cold wind blew in her face like a knife, blowing her back two or three meters.
Wang Shijin hurriedly grabbed her arm and said, "Where did this strong wind come from?"
Xia Xiaoman stood firm and said, "It might be a snowstorm. Tell Old Man Luo quickly and ask the people in the community to be prepared and try not to go out."
"I got it. I'll go now. Don't go out. Just stay in the property department." After Wang Shijin said that, he ran to the next office to find Old Man Luo.
Old Man Luo realized something was wrong when he heard the thunder. Knowing that there was a strong wind outside, he immediately arranged for people to notify all the owners in the community not to go out. He also asked two patrol teams to escort his colleagues from the property department home.
Xia Xiaoman stayed in the property management department for a while, and when she saw that there was no one who needed her help, she put her hands on her head, leaned her body and walked out step by step. After taking only two steps, she was frozen in place by the strong wind.
Wang Shijin arranged the staff and was about to take them out to inform the owners of the community. When he saw Xia Xiaoman standing there against the strong wind, he laughed unkindly and shouted at the top of his voice: "You are too light. You can't walk back by yourself. Come, hold our hands and we will take you back!"
Faced with the power of nature, Xia Xiaoman was unable to resist even with all his martial arts skills. He resigned himself to grabbing the hands of Wang Shijin and another patrolman, and was able to move forward with their help.
The wind was so strong that Xia Xiaoman was almost blown down several times. She couldn't open her eyes because of the wind and could only walk forward step by step based on her feeling.
I didn't know how long I walked, my hands were almost frozen, and then I heard Wang Shijin say, "We're here. Hold on to the door frame, don't let the wind blow you away!"
