Endless Rebirth

"That box is the master's secret treasure. In order to make the master regret it and teach him a lesson, I secretly stole it out of the master's room the next night." Uncle Haizi said lightly, "After all the hard work, When I opened the box, I realized there was only one book inside."

"A book full of diagrams," he turned to look at Chen Feng and said, "It's the secret book that you young people today talk about."

Chen Feng grinned and said nothing.

"At that time, I was very surprised. Although the master was not rich, he was not a man short of money. Why did he attach so much importance to this box or this atlas? So I flipped through it and found that the records on it were all unheard of exercises. method."

Uncle Haizi said softly, looking at his raised right hand.

"For a chef, knife skills are undoubtedly very important. I had been practicing for ten years and I was very confident in my knife skills because no one in the restaurant was better than me, even the chef."

"But the things in that book opened my eyes. As a young person who has ambitions and wants to be a top chef, it is so attractive." Uncle Haizi's tone gradually became more serious, Chen Feng It was obvious that he seemed to be deep in memories.

"After I came out of the restaurant, I ran towards the suburbs all night, and the next day I took a ride to another city. After practicing with the map for less than a year, I made great progress, whether it was cutting shreds or using a big knife. When it comes to films, even Wheat Flower Knife, I have reached the point where I can do whatever I want."

"My hand speed is getting faster and faster, and I can even do better than the average chef with my eyes closed. At that time, I felt huge satisfaction and confidence in my heart. With this confidence, I returned to the place where I have Master’s city.” Uncle Hai murmured,

"In the late autumn of [-], I secretly went back to look for the restaurant where I had stayed for nearly ten years, but when I arrived, I found nothing."

"What happened?" Chen Feng couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know. I asked a lot of people, but no one gave me the answer." Uncle Hai shook his head, "Some old neighbors and friends couldn't tell the reason. They only heard that something happened and the chef gave up the restaurant. He went out and then disappeared."

"I am a traitor. I betrayed my sect and my master." Uncle Hai's eyes were full of sadness. "I deserve to be like this."

"Uncle Hai!" Chen Feng shouted.

"I'm fine!" Uncle Hai's eyes were a little moist. He said, "Did you know? When people do something wrong, the most fearful thing is that they don't know how to regret it. The saddest thing is that they know they regret it and have no chance to correct it. Make amends, get forgiveness.”

"I never gave up looking for my master. From that day on, I wandered around the world while doing business, looking for any clues about my master. I found my former senior brothers, but unfortunately they didn't even let me in. I found them. The busboys who were in the restaurant back then, they didn’t know what was going on.”

"It wasn't until later that I met the woman I loved most in my life, and that's when I stopped." When Uncle Haizi said this, his eyes were filled with memories, and his face was softer than ever before. He even got up and went to the room next to the kitchen and took out a Small wooden box.

"This is her!" Uncle Hai showed Chen Feng a photo. The yellowed photo showed a black and white figure wearing simple work clothes. She had a sweet smile and was very beautiful.

"I lived in a big restaurant in the north, and she was a busboy. It was at work that our feelings came together little by little, and then we got together." He said, "Those days were the happiest days in my life. Many Many memories come from there and often come into my dreams.”

"What happened next?" Chen Feng asked with concern.

"Later... later..." Uncle Hai muttered, his face suddenly changed, there was resentment, anger, and murderous intent in his eyes, but he did not say it in the end.

Chen Feng didn't ask either.

After a while, Uncle Hai said, "Later, some changes happened. I offended a powerful person and had to run away again. Then I met Brother Xiong and stayed with him for all these years. ”

"I won't talk about it anymore. It's all in the past. Talking too much will only make me sad," he said.

"Uncle Hai, haven't you ever thought about going back?" Chen Feng asked, after all, it's the new century.

"What are you going back for? There is nothing worthy of my nostalgia there. I have no worries. How can I live a comfortable life with Brother Xiong." Uncle Hai said calmly.

"Okay, I've finished listening to the story, and I have to cook." He took out the old atlas from the wooden box and handed it to him, "This is the atlas, take it, you can take a look at it. If you want to understand the secrets inside, it proves that you are talented, don’t bury it.”

"Uncle Hai..." Chen Feng looked at him at a loss. He had never thought about it that way.

"Take it, it's useless for me to keep it. Don't you want to see something? Stop being pretentious!" Uncle Hai said and threw the book to him.

Chen Feng hurriedly took it and put the book away carefully.

"Didn't you say you wanted to eat noodles?" Uncle Hai's voice came from behind.

……

When he came out of the auto repair shop, it was already more than half an hour later. Chen Feng not only had a big pot of noodles, but also a 'secret book', and more importantly, he had mixed emotions after hearing the story.

Faced with his invitation, Uncle Hai finally refused. The two of them chatted often. Uncle Hai also knew about the people in Chen Feng's family. It was because he knew they were all young people that he didn't want to go. For He came and said that life alone is quite good.

Because Chen Feng said he wanted to eat dragon beard noodles, Uncle Hai helped make a big pot of dragon whiskers noodles and asked Chen Feng to take it home, while he ate it himself and got ready to take a nap.

Putting away his complicated emotions, Chen Feng rushed home. It was already past 12:30. The two people at home had already returned from school. Because they had talked on the phone before, they didn't cook anything and looked at the door eagerly.

When Chen Feng's figure appeared, Xu Yun even cheered, rushed out to take the big bamboo basket containing the pot, and followed Datou into the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks. Both of them were starving.

Chen Feng was also very hungry, so he smiled and joined in the noodle grabbing battle.

After having a cheerful lunch, Chen Feng did not talk to anyone more, but hid in the room and opened the book of charts given by Uncle Hai.

The spectrum is a wire-bound version, with pictures on both sides and text explanations. Although it is a bit old and the handwriting is beginning to be blurry, Chen Feng can still barely read it clearly.

This spectrum book did not have a specific name, nor the name of the author. After Chen Feng searched for it to no avail, he took a deep breath, adjusted his state, and opened the first page.

What caught my eye was a hundred or so words, which roughly introduced the content of the map. Uncle Hai was right, this was a cooking secret book, but the difference was that it specifically explained knife skills.

The content inside was an eye-opener for Chen Feng. As far as basic sword skills are concerned, in addition to the **, flat sword, and oblique sword skills divided according to angles, there are also some secret sword skills.

Each action has a detailed illustration. For example, the cutting method in the ** method includes ** cutting, pushing knife cutting, pulling knife cutting, sawing knife cutting, etc. Each cutting method has two illustrations. , which discusses issues such as strength and angle in detail.

As a qualified chef, Chen Feng easily discovered that there are many similarities and differences between the knife skills recorded above and the contemporary knife skills inherited and innovative. The reason why they are similar is because some of the knife skills have detailed names. See Looks similar.

For example, the straight cutting method literally means that the knife is cut vertically. This is used a lot in daily life, and there are many differences. In the diagram, the cutting method has not changed, but the technique has changed. From the grip There are very clear requirements for knife, knife pressing, knife lifting, etc.

And those secret sword skills are unheard of and unseen. Among them is the sword that Uncle Hai used today, which is recorded in the secret Qie Zi Jue and has written explanations.

Chen Feng was so mesmerized that he didn't even pay attention to the two people in his family saying hello to him to go to school. He started from the "cut" formula to the "chop" formula, and didn't even look at the "flat knife" at the end, so he just endured it. My hands couldn't help itching, so I turned my hands and took out the hudie knife from my pocket.

The sharp tip of the knife cut through the void, and a cold light flashed in the room, um, and then...no more, his hand cramped.

"hiss……"

Feeling the discomfort in his hands, he took a breath of cold air. Only then did he understand what the talent Uncle Hai mentioned was about. It cannot be cultivated with secret books and maps.

He just followed the first diagram and tried it casually, but because he didn't understand the method of force, he used force and hurt himself when the knife was drawn down.

Fortunately, it was not a serious injury, so he rubbed his fingers and continued to study.

The more I study, the more I feel that the method described in the picture is very subtle. It explains the different force-generating techniques of different types of knives in terms of the angle, sharpness and type of knife technique.

The techniques involved involve a lot of knowledge, especially how to use tiny muscles to achieve force conversion. Chen Feng was amazed when he saw this. This is a completely unique skill for an agent. Mastering this technique, his survivability will be several times greater. improvement.

Time passed slowly. As he continued to read and study, he gradually gained a clear concept of these sword techniques in his mind, and his thoughts on practice became firm.

And from that day on, Chen Feng's daily exercise plan included practicing sword skills. The hudie knife became the best tool, and the knife never left his body.

……

Just when Chen Feng was fascinated by knife skills, he was in the backyard bedroom of the auto repair shop.

Uncle Hai lay quietly on the bed. His right hand placed on the quilt was trembling uncontrollably. Every muscle from his fingertips to his arm was twitching, and he looked very charming.

"Defection...sin..."

He murmured, and the muscles on his face pulled uncontrollably. Although he had endured the twitching and pain in his hands for so many years, he still felt very uncomfortable.

The move he faced against Chen Feng just now put a heavy burden on his arm!
