Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

Xu Damao didn't seem to care about the other party's rejection and insisted on showing it.

So Xu Damao and his companions came to the overpass. It was indeed more lively here than other places: the sound of storytelling could be heard from the teahouse under the overpass, and all kinds of stalls were set up outside.

The dazzling array of goods is dizzying; there are even several groups of performers along the way showing off their unique skills.

Faced with such a lively scene, Xu Damao was full of anticipation. He took a deep breath and prepared to start his performance.

"Xiao E, do you have any money with you? Go buy some bamboo chopsticks."

As Xu Damao spoke, he parked his bicycle steadily under a big tree on the roadside. Then, he turned to look at Lou Xiaoe and told her to go buy something.

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e asked in confusion, "What are you going to use the chopsticks for?"

Xu Damao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a mysterious smile, and answered confidently: "Of course this is for the performance later! You will know it later, and by the way, I will let you see my true strength. Listen to me, go quickly, it's sold at the stall over there."

Hearing Xu Damao's insistence, Lou Xiao'e sighed helplessly, but still walked towards the stall next to her as he requested. After a while, she returned with a new pair of chopsticks in her hand.

"Here, I bought it for you. But, Damao, are you sure you can do it? Why don't we stop bothering with all this? I believe you are very capable."

Lou Xiao'e frowned, her face full of worry, and tried again to persuade Xu Damao to give up the idea of ​​performing for a living.

However, Xu Damao did not back down. He patted his chest confidently and assured: "Don't worry, there will be absolutely no problem! Let's get started quickly. Everyone is waiting to see my performance."

Xu Damao stood steadily in an open space. He bowed frequently and rhythmically to the people around him, while turning his head to speak to Lou Xiao'e.

Seeing Xu Damao being so stubborn, Lou Xiao'e had no choice but to smile bitterly and shook her head gently. She would no longer try to persuade him to change his mind.

At this moment, the people watching the fun noticed that this tall, handsome young man was bowing in all directions, and they knew that he was a street performer.

Everyone stopped and gathered around to find out what was going on.

Among these onlookers, there were mostly young women and married women. They stared at Xu Damao intently, with an indescribable look in their eyes, as if they couldn't wait to swallow this handsome young man into their stomachs.

Among the crowd, an experienced matchmaker caught a glimpse of Xu Damao standing in the center, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

I thought to myself, "I wonder if such a handsome young man is married? I will definitely go up to him and ask him later. If I can help a girl find a date, I will definitely get a lot of money!"

Thinking of this, the matchmaker couldn't help but show a proud look on her face.

Since Xu Damao was surrounded by many young and beautiful women and graceful young women, the men not far away couldn't help but feel very curious when they saw so many girls with heavy makeup and bright clothes, as well as young wives with graceful figures and pretty faces gathered here.

Some of them came to admire Xu Damao's performance skills, or simply wanted to catch a glimpse of the beauty, so they all came forward to join in the fun.

In the blink of an eye, the crowd around Xu Damao became denser and denser...

"Ahem!"

"I can travel anywhere, from mountains to rivers to lakes and seas. It's no problem to drive away the Japanese, and it's even more powerful to beat up the Americans. Fellow countrymen, nobles, please turn your eyes to this place!"

Xu Damao bowed to those around him and shouted in a clear and loud voice.

He knew clearly in his heart that most of the people present were just there to see the novelty and join in the fun; while those young men were more concerned about whether it was interesting and fun. If he only focused on showing off his skills but was not good at speaking and did not know how to please the audience, he was afraid that he would not make much money in the end.

"Dear guests, please don't miss it if you pass by! Today I am not here to sell the powerful pills or medicine for injuries. I just want to show you my skills. Please come and watch."

"However, if you think my performance is quite brilliant, and I happen to have some extra money in my pocket and am not tight on money, you might as well reward me with some money as an encouragement. After all, who would be hard on money? Hehehe..."

As soon as Xu Damao finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter all around, especially from women. As the clear and melodious laughter of these young girls and young women spread, more and more men were attracted.

At this moment, Lou Xiao'e was standing quietly beside Xu Damao, with her head lowered and a small wooden basin tightly held in her hands.

She thought to herself: This is really embarrassing!

The two big eyes were meowing around, as if they wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it immediately...

"Please look carefully, what I am holding in my hand is a pair of bamboo chopsticks that I just bought from the stall next door!"

After Xu Damao snatched the chopsticks from Lou Xiao'e, he turned around and showed them to the people around him who were watching.

Having just finished the demonstration, Xu Damao did not delay any more. He quickly pulled out a chopstick with his right hand and swung it violently. With a crisp "bang" sound, the chopstick disappeared in an instant. When he looked closely, he found that it had been firmly inserted into the trunk of a huge paulownia tree ten meters ahead, and the tail of the chopstick was still trembling slightly.

"good!"

“That’s amazing!”

"You can penetrate the wood three inches deep. Your arm strength is amazing!"

At this time, a man who happened to be standing next to the sycamore tree walked forward and pulled out the chopsticks. When he saw the deep marks left on the chopsticks, he couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement: "In my opinion, this kind of skill cannot be achieved by brute force alone, there must be some clever tricks!"

"I didn't see it clearly just now, let's have another one."

The crowd around was surging, clamoring for Xu Damao to perform on stage again.

"Since you are all so supportive, I will respectfully obey your orders and show you my skills!"

At this moment, Xu Damao held several chopsticks in each hand, his eyes fixed on the tall and straight tung tree about ten meters ahead, as if all the strength in his body had been gathered here, and he would rush out like an arrow when the opportunity came.
