Martial Arts: Starting from a Seemingly Real System

Chapter 11 Cloth Bag and Awl

"Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!"

On the fourth floor of an apartment building in Fenghuang Community, Qiao Rui and his three companions stopped at the door of 402, and Yan Zi went forward and knocked on the door.

"Who?" A soft and gentle female voice came from inside, with a hint of vigilance.

"Aunt, it's me, Yan Zi!"

"swallow?"

After a while, the back door was opened and a woman came out. The woman was in her thirties, with fair skin, long hair, and a plain long dress. She was a little plump and looked elegant and intellectual, somewhat like Yan Zi.

"Yanzi, why are you here? It's so chaotic outside..." The woman grabbed Yanzi's hand and asked with concern. She looked at Qiao Rui and Liu Xinyue and asked Yanzi, "Are they your friends?"

"Yes, Brother Qiao and Sister Xin Yue sent me here! Aunt, I missed you so much!" Yan Zi said in a sweet voice while holding the elegant woman's hand.

"You are such a sweet talker. You have been acting like a spoiled child in front of me since you were a child. Why don't you invite your friend in to sit with you?" The woman took out her hand and nodded Yan Zi's head lovingly, then opened the door further, stepped aside to make way, and invited Qiao Rui and the others to come in.

When you enter the house, you will find that the interior decoration is antique, fresh and simple, and very elegant.

"Lao Yu, Yan Zi is back!"

A middle-aged man stood up from the dark red wooden chair in the living room. He was short and fat, and his smile was like that of Maitreya Buddha. At this moment, the man said to Yan Zi with a smile: "You are finally back. Hurry up and ask your friend to come and sit down."

"Brother Qiao, Sister Xinyue, this is my uncle!" Yan Zi pulled Liu Xinyue and the others to sit down, and introduced her uncle: "Uncle, this is my brother Qiao Rui and sister Liu Xinyue, they sent me all the way here!"

"Okay! Okay! Thank you both. Her aunt has been worried about her these past two days!" Yan Zi's uncle thanked Qiao Rui and Liu Xinyue.

"Uncle, you're welcome!" Qiao Rui quickly returned the greeting.

At this time, Yan Zi's aunt came over with a plate of cut fruits and said, "We don't have anything good to treat you at home, but we have some oranges. Have a try!"

"So sweet!" Liu Xinyue praised while eating the orange and couldn't help but eat a few more slices.

Qiao Rui also ate two slices and then stopped to talk to Yan Zi's uncle Lao Yu. Although he didn't talk much, he was calm and humorous, and he could always insert a joke or two at key points, just right.

Old Yu works in the housing management department. He is a warm and talkative person. He chatted with Qiao Rui about all sorts of things. He admired this young man very much and the atmosphere was very lively.

Seeing that Liu Xinyue was no longer eating oranges and was about to leave, Qiao Rui picked up a canvas bag he had brought from the ground next to him and handed it to Yan Zi's uncle, saying, "Here are some food and water, uncle, take them."

"No, we can't do that. It's too expensive!" The couple refused together. This big bag of food can last for many days and is particularly precious at this time.

"Uncle and aunt, please accept it. The three of us found it in the mall together. There was originally a portion for Yan!" Liu Xinyue also said.

"Hmm!" Yan Zi was still eating with an orange in her mouth and responded vaguely.

The couple looked at each other, and Yan Zi's aunt nodded. Then her husband took the big canvas bag from Qiao Rui. He felt it weighed down in his hand and almost dropped it.

Yan Zi's uncle looked at Qiao Rui deeply and thought to himself, this young man looks like he is carrying this stuff without any effort. I thought it wasn't very heavy. It seems that this man is either born with great strength or he has had a lot of luck in the past two days. No wonder he dared to carry so much food outside.

Yan Zi's uncle admired Qiao Rui's skills while carrying the bag to the kitchen. He asked his wife to sort and organize the food, and then he came out of the kitchen and sat down again. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed, "There is really not much food left at home. I was planning to go back to her hometown with her aunt in the afternoon to stay for a few days. There is rice and grain in the countryside, as well as wells and earthen stoves, so we can at least make a fire and cook. Now that we have this bag of food you gave us, we don't have to rush back. Let's stay here for a few days to see how the situation develops."

Yan Zi finished the last piece of orange, wiped her hands with a tissue, and asked, "Uncle, if there is not enough food, why don't you go to the supermarket to get more?"

"After all, your aunt and I are public officials. How can we do that?" Her uncle smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"So you guys are just going to endure it like this?"

"Yeah, what else can we do? Wait, there will always be new changes!"

"Oh!"

After chatting casually for a while, Qiao Rui and Liu Xinyue stood up and said goodbye.

After watching them go downstairs, Yan Zi's uncle asked Yan Zi: "Is your friend Qiao Rui very powerful?"

"Uh-huh!"

"How awesome?"

"Very powerful! From last night till now, he has defeated several groups of people who offended us! I think he has never lost in a fight!" Yan Zi said proudly.

"Did someone else provoke you?"

"Yes, those who provoked us, those who stole our food, and those who tried to tease me and Sister Liu Xinyue were all dealt with by Brother Qiao in no time!"

"Has he killed anyone?" Yan Zi's uncle suddenly asked.

"Kill...killed a few particularly bad ones!" Yan Zi didn't know what she was thinking of, her eyes were a little evasive, and she answered in a low voice.

The aunt came over to close the door, took Yan Zi's hand and went back to the house, and rolled her eyes at her husband, "Why are you asking so many questions? You scared my Yan Zi!"

"Nothing, I just think that boy is special!"

"What's so special about it? Why didn't I notice it?" asked my aunt.

"I feel that the young man seems to be humorous and casual, and looks harmless, but he speaks well and has clear thoughts. In addition, he has clear eyes and a handsome face. He is obviously very powerful but low-key and introverted. People like him are generally calm and composed, resolute and smart, and are good at doing great things."

"Oh?"

"Oh!"

Aunt Liu Xinyue and Liu Xinyue responded respectively.

"Don't you still doubt me? Heroes emerge in troubled times, don't you know?" said the fat uncle leisurely. "Some people may live an ordinary life in peaceful times, but when they encounter troubled times, some hidden qualities will be stimulated. Such people will often quickly stand out and shine, just like a sharp awl that stands out."

"A sharp awl and an ordinary iron bar are placed in a cloth bag. If the cloth bag is stable and motionless, the awl may be buried in these iron bars for life. But if the cloth bag shakes violently, the awl will quickly pierce through the cloth bag and appear!" At this moment, the fat uncle is like a wise man who is pointing out the way forward!

"hehe!"

"Ha ha!"

Two giggles came from the room, one with a hint of doubt, the other with a hint of pride.
