"You stinky guy, why don't you get in the car? I won't take you with me later!!"
At this time, Xiang Yuanyuan stuck her head out and shouted out the window.
Everyone looked towards the tree nearby, where a clouded leopard was fertilizing a small tree with its tail erected straight and its butt facing it.
"Meow~~"
Seeing that everyone was looking over, Clouded Leopard finished peeing slowly, and then started to accelerate from a distance, as if he was going to jump directly into the car. Seeing this scene, Xiang Yuanyuan and Li Qiyao couldn't help but lean forward in their seats.
This clouded leopard was quite heavy, and it would be very heavy if it jumped onto her body, especially since Xiang Yuanyuan was protecting her belly tightly.
The clouded leopard just jumped up and flew in the air before getting on the car, and then it stopped in the air strangely.
"Meow~"
The clouded leopard cried out in confusion, and then slid its limbs a few times as if paddling water.
"You just peed, at least shake yourself off!"
Du Ruo sat in the driving seat, turned his head to look at the clouded leopard suspended in mid-air, and said something unhappily.
As Du Ruo spoke, it was as if an invisible air current was blowing across the clouded leopard's body. The dirty dirt on the clouded leopard's body and the urine on its fur all automatically fell off the clouded leopard's body and onto the ground.
Then the clouded leopard floated in from outside the car and gently landed on Xiang Yuanyuan's legs.
"Let's go~"
After doing all this, Du Ruo drove away.
“Even though I’ve seen his miraculous operations many times, I still find them amazing and incredible.”
The fox held the A4 paper in her hand and couldn't help but sigh, but no one around talked to her.
Not long after, two armed soldiers carried a man down the mountain and transported him away in a vehicle, while the fox was taken away directly by an armed helicopter. Of course, someone took care of the follow-up of the earthen mounds on the hillside and dismantled all the sheds and the like. Before leaving, they did not forget to sow a handful of flower seeds.
Soon, the mountain returned to calm. A breeze blew, and some wild flower petals were blown off and drifted in the mountains. The two mounds on the mountainside were quietly enjoying the mountain wind and the rare freedom under the blue sky and white clouds.
"Qiqi, what's the matter?"
In the car, Xiang Yuanyuan was playing with the clouded leopard's tail with her fingers out of boredom. When she saw Li Qiyao standing silently beside her, she asked in a low voice.
"No...nothing."
Li Qiyao subconsciously shifted her gaze from the sword handle on the passenger seat and looked out the window.
But soon, Li Qiyao turned her head again, but this time she looked at Du Ruo who was driving in front:
"Boss Du, can I learn martial arts from you?"
"Learning martial arts? What's wrong? Have you encountered rogues again recently?"
This was Du Ruo's first reaction. Li Qiyao looked so weak and fragile that she seemed too easy to bully. Moreover, she had a precedent, which made Du Ruo think about this.
"Qiqi, has anyone bullied you? Tell me and I'll support you."
When Xiang Yuanyuan heard this, she immediately let go of the clouded leopard's tail and went over to ask Li Qiyao. Her first reaction was the same as Du Ruo's. When she heard Li Qiyao say that, she immediately thought that the other party had met a scumbag again.
"No~"
Li Qiyao rolled her eyes when she heard this, then thought for a moment before continuing:
"I just thought that practicing martial arts can strengthen the body, and judging from Yuanyuan's complexion, the effect is much more reliable than yoga, so I want to learn it."
Hearing this, Xiang Yuanyuan said nothing more, but looked at Du Ruo with Li Qiyao. She would not make the decision on such matters.
"Then practice. We will stay at your house for a few more days and let Yuanyuan teach you Tai Chi. We will leave after you have learned it."
Du Ruo said indifferently.
He has already taught Fox some basic martial arts today, so he doesn't mind teaching a few more people.
Because he knew that no matter how much these people practiced, no one would be able to reach his level in the end.
"What I mean is, I want to follow you to Huangshan and study there, like being your disciple."
Li Qiyao shook her head and spoke with her lips pursed, her tone revealing a rare stubbornness.
"???"
Du Ruo didn't react for a while after hearing this, and Xiang Yuanyuan was the same. She looked at Li Qiyao with her mouth open, her face full of confusion.
"No, Qiqi, if you want to learn, I will teach you. Even if I can't teach you well, your husband will teach you. Besides, if you go to Huangshan, what about your training class?"
Xiang Yuanyuan didn't expect Li Qiyao to say this. You know, she was still thinking that she hadn't gotten pregnant yet, so she half-heartedly thought about...
Who would have thought that Li Qiyao would say this now.
“I’ll leave the training class to someone else, and I can ask my cousin to go over and take a look occasionally. In fact, after I saw Boss Du flying a sword last time, I’ve been thinking about that scene.
You said that I’m not young anymore and don’t plan to fall in love. Anyway, I can’t afford to be liked by those who like me, and those I like can’t possibly be liked by a 30-year-old me. So I might as well find a better hobby and learn it.
Even if I can't achieve the ability to fly like Boss Du, it would be nice to be able to delay aging like Yuanyuan."
Li Qiyao used her little finger to push the long hair beside her ear. She didn't show much emotion when she spoke. It was obvious that she had thought about this for a long time, and she saw it very clearly. When she said this, she had a feeling of seeing through the world.
This made Du Ruo unable to help but look at Li Qiyao a few more times through the rearview mirror.
"Besides, Yuanyuan will have someone to accompany her in Huangshan. When her belly gets bigger, I can help take care of her. Besides... I will definitely practice hard at that time. If I want to become your disciple..."
Li Qiyao's eyes were determined as she looked into Du Ruo's eyes through the rearview mirror in front of her.
"You don't need to become my disciple. It's not the first day we've known each other. If you've made up your mind and really want to give it a try, then come on. It just so happens that Xiang Yuanyuan is pretty free lately."
Du Ruo interrupted Li Qiyao directly, but he didn't take what Li Qiyao said to heart. He just thought of it as giving Xiang Yuanyuan another companion. As for practicing martial arts, he didn't have the mind to do that for the time being, so he just let Xiang Yuanyuan teach.
As for whether he had any other improper thoughts about Li Qiyao, Du Ruo was not the only one who knew the answer. In fact, Yuanyuan and even Li Qiyao could see it very clearly. There was not much desire in Du Ruo's eyes at all.
When Du Ruo reached this level of martial arts training, he had more pursuits, and these pursuits were far beyond simple desires.
Otherwise, as long as Du Ruo showed his love for beautiful women, he guaranteed that he would meet all kinds of beauties the next day.
"Hey, then should we stay here longer? Qiqi, do you want to prepare anything?"
Xiang Yuanyuan was the happiest. She went up to hug Li Qiyao and spoke happily.
"I don't have anything to prepare, just take the two cats and go."
Li Qiyao also showed a smile on her face. Her parents were not too old, at least they did not need her to take care of them. Moreover, her family was well-off and she did not have too many worries, so she could take charge of her own life.
"Then...husband, are we going to go somewhere else to play?"
Xiang Yuanyuan held onto the backrests of the passenger and co-pilot seats with both hands, leaned his head forward, and began to question Du Ruo.
"Didn't you come out to play because you didn't want to drink chicken soup? Do you want to go back now?"
Du Ruo glanced at Xiang Yuanyuan. Originally, the two of them planned to stay with Li Qiyao for a while longer. Anyway, there was no place they particularly wanted to go recently. But now Li Qiyao wanted to go back with them, and they couldn't decide where to go for a while.
"Hehe, let Qiqi help with the food when the time comes. Look how thin she is."
Xiang Yuanyuan said this with a smile, and then turned around and pinched Li Qiyao's waist.
"That's what you said, so we'll stay for another day and go back tomorrow."
Du Ruo was driving and talking without much concern. As for why he left without going back, it was because Du Ruo wanted to give Li Qiyao some time to arrange things.
"Well, let's go to a training class first."
Li Qiyao had no objection. After returning from the mountainous area, the three of them went to Li Qiyao's workplace, where Li Qiyao arranged some work for them.
In fact, in her painting training place, sales people get commissions based on the sale of courses, and the same goes for the teachers. The commissions they get depend on how many children they teach and how many classes they give. The whole process is mature.
So even if she was not there, there would be no trouble, and she was already prepared to transfer it. If someone was willing to take over, she would just ask her cousin to go and talk to them.
Anyway, she didn't have much expenses at that time, and she had a lot of savings in her bank card. As an only child, her family also had a lot of real estate, so she would not starve no matter what.
At noon, Li Qiyao took the two of them back home.
Li Qiyao's parents are very open-minded people. They used to worry about Li Qiyao's physical and mental health, but ever since she got over her past, she looks much more cheerful and lively. Looking at their happy daughter, they no longer have too many extravagant demands.
As for love, marriage, blind dates, etc., they dare not even mention it. After all, they only have one daughter, so they just spoil her.
Although they didn't quite understand what Li Qiyao said about going to Huangshan to practice martial arts, but after hearing Li Qiyao's happy expression when she talked about the scenery of Huangshan, they didn't say much and just said that they would definitely go there for a trip when the time comes.
Although they couldn't see their daughter every week, it didn't matter since she was healthy and happy now. The two elders just talked a lot to Xiang Yuanyuan and Du Ruo, asking them to help take care of Li Qiyao.
In the evening, the three of them did not stay for dinner, but returned to Li Qiyao's apartment.
Xiang Yuanyuan helped Li Qiyao pack some things, such as cosmetics, clothes and so on.
Du Ruo took out the newly bought A4 paper and started copying the martial arts skills in his mind.
But today he didn't stay up all night. After writing for a little after ten o'clock, he went into his room to sleep. However, he slept alone, while Xiang Yuanyuan went over to sleep with Li Qiyao.
……
"What about the back?"
In Kyoto, Mr. Wang looked at the A4 paper in his hand and turned to the end of "Xingyi", but did not see what he wanted to see. He could not help but ask the middle-aged secretary beside him.
"There is no follow-up. This is all that Consultant Du gave me. It's not just this Xingyi that has no follow-up. The same is true for Tai Chi and Bagua. It seems... this is all."
The middle-aged secretary said.
"Just do as Du Ruo asked, rebind it and send it back to him. As for these, make a few extra copies, find a professional to take a look first, and then tell me the results before the meeting."
Mr. Wang put down the A4 papers.
"Okay, I'll arrange it now. The meeting is scheduled for the evening, but there is a department meeting in the evening that needs you to chair."
The secretary looked through the itinerary.
"Just let Deputy Minister Zhang preside over it. Today's meeting is very important and may have to continue tomorrow. Before the end of the meeting, if you have any arrangements, postpone them if possible. If you can't postpone them, arrange for someone else to attend on my behalf."
Mr. Wang waved his hand. It was he who proposed the evening meeting, and the main purpose was to discuss one thing.
That is, whether they should promote the martial arts given by Du Ruo, and if so, how to promote them. Anyway, this is not a trivial matter. One move will affect the whole body, and all decisions are not made on a whim.
It will take a long time of planning and discussion before it can be implemented.
But no matter what, the military will definitely give priority to promotion and trial at that time. As for whether to promote it nationwide, that is the main content of discussion.
"Yes!"
After hearing this, the secretary no longer hesitated and went out to arrange and dispatch work.
"I hope this is just the beginning. It's a good thing that Du Ruo is willing to take these out. If he can take out more..."
Old Wang leaned back in his chair, thinking more. Du Ruo had already sent out friendly signals, and they had no reason to ignore it. During the meeting, they would definitely discuss how to treat Du Ruo.
……
Du Ruo and the others went out, and came back within two days, just in time to catch the chicken soup that my mother sent over every three days.
So, Xiang Yuanyuan drank soup and Li Qiyao ate meat, and the two of them got along quite well.
Next, Xiang Yuanyuan was accompanied by Li Qiyao, and Xiang Yuanyuan was very happy to teach Li Qiyao martial arts.
So, Xiang Yuanyuan drove the clouded leopard to the mountains. It’s not that Xiang Yuanyuan no longer liked the clouded leopard, but she just wanted the clouded leopard to go to the forest more often, so as not to keep it at home every day and raise it into a domestic cat.
During this time, Du Ruo secretly took Xiang Yuanyuan to see the clouded leopard mother. The clouded leopard mother was still on the familiar boulder, but alone, and the other little clouded leopard beside her was gone.
It seemed that it had been driven away by it. In fact, of the two little clouded leopards, the one sent to Du Ruo's home was relatively weak at the time. Perhaps the mother clouded leopard was worried that this one could not survive alone, so she gave it to Du Ruo to raise.
In the next few days, Du Ruo watched Xiang Yuanyuan teach Li Qiyao martial arts in the morning, basked in the sun and drank tea in the afternoon, and in the evening, he continued to copy the skills in his mind.
Xiang Yuanyuan was really generous and even taught Li Qiyao how to meditate at night. However, she did not teach her the Hunyuan Qigong at the beginning. She simply asked her to meditate and calm down. She thought that after Li Qiyao got used to it, she would teach her those exercises as well.
Du Ruo didn't say much about this. He had already sorted these out by himself, so what was the point of handing them over to Li Qiyao? No matter what, he and Li Qiyao still had some feelings for each other. At least they could be considered good friends.
There was even one time when Yang Chenguang came over, Du Ruo generously showed these to Yang Chenguang and told him that he could learn whatever he wanted.
However, Yang Chenguang only watched the basic exercises and finally refused on the grounds that he was busy making money.
Du Ruo glanced at what Yang Chenguang was looking at. It was the famous "Twelve-Way Tan Leg". This martial art was very famous and was known as the representative of northern leg along with Chuo Jiao.
However, the requirements for basic skills are not low. Even those who have studied dance for many years will cry when watching it, not to mention a greasy man in his thirties like Yang Chenguang.
Stretching his muscles and hips could kill him.
Learning martial arts is not easy. Either you are like Xiang Yuanyuan, who has a large amount of medicinal liquor and elixirs as resources, or you have a master like Du Ruo to give you personal guidance and arrange a special training route for you.
Either you have a system or plug-in like Du Ruo, otherwise you have to work hard to strengthen your body and start from the basics.
……
"Mr. Du, this is the bound secret book. I sent it to you."
A few days later, the fox brought the reprinted and bound books to Du Ruo.
Du Ruo flipped through it and found that the materials used were the best, and the contents were exactly the same as what Du Ruo had copied.
"Well, that's great. I can put it in my study. I've written a lot these days. You should take it. When the time comes, just print and bind it like this and bring it to me."
After Du Ruo flipped through it, he closed the secret book and let him take the remaining A4 paper away.
"Okay, this is what I brought this time. I wonder if Mr. Du is interested in it."
A look of joy appeared on the fox's face, and he nodded quickly to print it. Then, seeing that Du Ruo had no other instructions, he took out a file bag, which was the familiar brown paper bag.
"Just tell me what's going on."
Du Ruo looked at the familiar brown paper bag and couldn't help but frowning and rubbing his head. He really couldn't go out and do that anymore.
Last time he had no choice but to choose to transform his body in the midst of crisis and bullets, but he doesn't have these thoughts now.
"Oh, this is the information about the man we caught last time. Because he has some relationship with Zhang Aimin, I brought it to Mr. Du."
Seeing that Du Ruo didn't take it, the fox put the brown paper bag away again and gave a brief introduction of the contents inside.
"Oh? Tell me?"
Du Ruo suddenly became interested. The reason why he didn't kill the other party last time and just knocked him out with his sword was because the other party's peeping had no malicious intent. That's why he let the fox take the other party away. He didn't expect that this person would be related to Zhang Aimin.
"Yes, that man is Zhang Aimin's junior fellow apprentice. Zhang Aimin was arrested because he saved him. After he escaped, he eventually returned to China through various means. He placed the bouquet of flowers there."
The fox knew that Du Ruo didn't like long speeches, so he spoke very briefly.
