Chapter 886 986. The end of July
When Zheng Shuang said the word "superpower", even Nie Wei couldn't help but be stunned. When he came back to his senses, he burst into laughter.
"How did you think of superpowers? This is obviously a magic trick." Nie Wei laughed and explained. He had thought of a thousand answers that Zheng Shuang would give, but he didn't expect Zheng Shuang to think it was a superpower.
I have to say that this girl's imagination is really too alternative and too interesting.
Nie Wei's explanation is actually not completely correct. He has never learned magic, but he has learned art. However, the techniques between the two are actually roughly the same, but magic is more fancy and art is more practical.
"Magic?" Zheng Shuang was immediately interested when he heard Nie Wei's answer, and immediately asked: "Brother, how did you do it? Teach me."
"I can teach you, but I have to do a test. Otherwise, if you are too stupid, I will waste my time." Nie Wei said with a smile. Zheng Shuang was coquettish after hearing it, but still obeyed Nie Wei's words and went to ask Teacher Huang for a pen.
"Can you spin a pen?" Nie Wei asked instead of taking the ballpoint pen that Zheng Shuang handed over.
"Yes." Zheng Shuang replied, thinking that everyone can spin a pen.
"Then spin it for me to see." Nie Wei said with a smile. At Nie Wei's instruction, Zheng Shuang picked up the ballpoint pen in her hand and tried to spin it twice. At first, she was a little awkward because she was unfamiliar with the pen, but after spinning it twice, it became much smoother.
Zheng Shuang's way of spinning a pen is very simple, that is, she uses her middle finger and ring finger to hold the palm of her hand as the bearing of the pen, and then uses her thumb to assist, but her skills are obviously not up to standard. It's okay to spin it one or two times, but if she spins it more, she obviously can't control it.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" Zheng Shuang showed off her pen spinning skills and looked at Nie Wei with pride: "Do I have talent? Am I amazing?"
"This is child's play." Nie Wei took the ballpoint pen from Zheng Shuang's hand and used the same method as Zheng Shuang. However, the ballpoint pen that could only spin one or two circles in Zheng Shuang's hand was like a spinning top in Nie Wei's hand, which made Zheng Shuang's eyes widen.
The photographer on the side also opened his mouth in surprise. He had seen many people who could spin pens, but it was the first time he had seen someone as good as Nie Wei. After he came to his senses, he quickly pointed the camera at Nie Wei's hand and took a close-up shot that lasted for several seconds.
"Do you still think you are amazing?" Nie Wei put away the pen in his hand and asked Zheng Shuang with a smile, who immediately shook his head.
At this time, including Huang Lei, as well as He Jiong and Li Yifeng who had gone out, all rushed back after hearing the news, gathered around the small table, and watched Nie Wei teach Zheng Shuang magic.
"The most important thing in learning magic is to have flexible fingers. Quick eyes and hands are the key to magic. Pen spinning is a good way to exercise fingers. Let me show you the basics."
While speaking, Nie Wei turned the ballpoint pen in his hand again, but this time he did not use Zheng Shuang's pen spinning method. After all, the most important thing about that pen spinning method is to keep the ballpoint pen loyal during the spinning, which is not very helpful for exercising fingers.
This time, he directly used the gap between his fingers to spin the ballpoint pen. Starting from the pinky and ring fingers, the ballpoint pen turned smoothly to Nie Wei's thumb. Just when everyone thought it was over, the ballpoint pen in Nie Wei's hand turned from the thumb back to the pinky and ring fingers without a pause.
And it was not over yet. Immediately afterwards, the ballpoint pen turned again. Nie Wei actually used the back of his fingers to turn the ballpoint pen to the thumb again. This time, Nie Wei held the ballpoint pen. Everyone came back to their senses from the stunned state and gave a very warm applause.
"Nie Wei, your finger flexibility is good." Huang Lei praised. He is a teacher and has seen many students playing pen spinning, but Nie Wei's level of playing is also amazing. This is not just pen spinning, it is simply acrobatics.
"Brother Nie Wei, please teach me too." Li Yifeng took the initiative to ask for the first time, because he is also a pen spinning enthusiast. He knows better than anyone here how difficult it is for Nie Wei to spin the pen just now.
In fact, Nie Wei did not play any difficult tricks, but the most basic things, but the more basic things, the more you can see a person's strength.
First of all, the ballpoint pen in Nie Wei's hand is not the kind of counterweight pen used for professional pen spinning, but an ordinary ballpoint pen. It is not a simple thing to find the balance of the pen.
And pen spinning is a test of the flexibility of the fingers, and the second is to be able to keep the center of gravity of the pen in your hand.
In addition, Nie Wei's pen spinning movements are smooth from beginning to end, without a pause. In Li Yifeng's opinion, such pen spinning skills can be called art. How flexible the fingers must be to achieve this.
"Basic operation, basic operation." Nie Wei said happily.
Then he broke down several movements step by step for everyone to see, and taught everyone the movements step by step, but learning the movements may be two different things in practice.
Just like everyone who plays basketball knows that when shooting, the elbow, wrist and basketball should be in a straight line as much as possible, and then the wrist should be used to push the basketball out, so that the basketball will fly straight and stable. However, in actual application, many people will subconsciously choose the way they are comfortable when shooting, and the result is that the basketball either spins violently or deviates terribly.
Just like everyone who has been taught by Nie Wei, they clearly understand the movements, but the pen always flies out when turning.
"Don't worry, this can't be learned in an hour or two. It takes time to accumulate and let your body remember these movements. Then practice makes perfect. You can buy professional pen-turning tools online in the future and practice at home."
At this point, Nie Wei couldn't help but explain the sport of pen-turning.
"Actually, pen-twisting is a very good exercise, and it is not a manifestation of ADHD as everyone says. In fact, pen-twisting can not only improve people's concentration, exercise their fingers and eyesight, but also exercise the cerebellum, and even indirectly stimulate the brain, which is good for people. It also helps with memory and, of course, prevents Alzheimer’s disease.”
"So when you see a child spinning his pen, there is really no need to deliberately stop him. Of course, the naughty kid who swings the ink pen around must teach him a profound lesson, please."
Everyone was still nodding their heads because of Nie Wei's words to correct his name, but they didn't expect that Nie Wei suddenly made a turn in the end, and the naughty kid he mentioned immediately made everyone present. With a deep sense of empathy, it is obvious that there are not a few such naughty children, at least everyone present has encountered them.
"Hahahahahaha."
"This naughty kid really needs to be educated."
"What Nie Wei said is correct."
After finishing the story, Nie Wei did not forget to teach Zheng Shuang magic. The ability to remember cards can only rely on talking. This also requires long-term training, and Nie Wei emphatically told Zheng Shuang. Tips for hiding cards.
"It turns out it's so simple." Zheng Shuang couldn't help but say after listening to Nie Wei's explanation.
"It seems simple, but if you want to be as fluent as me and change the cards quietly, it will take at least ten or twenty years of practice." Nie Wei said with a smile.
"Hmph, I'm extremely talented. Maybe I'll learn it tomorrow." Zheng Shuang was dissatisfied that Nie Wei looked down on her and said immediately.
"Maybe you can learn it tonight." Nie Wei suddenly said after hearing Zheng Shuang's words, which made Zheng Shuang a little surprised and a little happy. She wondered why this bad guy didn't hit her anymore. Did he really find out? I am gifted with extraordinary abilities. What quick and unique secrets are I going to teach myself soon?
But the next second, the little happiness in her heart disappeared.
Because Nie Wei told her that she can learn it tonight, just dream!
"You are so annoying, I won't pay attention to you." Zheng Shuang pouted and ran to his bed amidst the laughter of everyone. Obviously, he was not going to play with Nie Wei and other 'bad guys' tonight. .
"Don't be angry, let's go outside to enjoy the cool weather. You've been staying in the city and haven't seen the Milky Way yet, right?" Nie Wei waved to Zheng Shuang and invited: "Come together, the weather is good today, you should be able to see the Milky Way, I promise to let you You are stunning.”
Although he said he would not play with Nie Wei and others, Zheng Shuang still followed Nie Wei's call.
"Wow!!!!" When Zheng Shuang stepped out of the room, he glanced at the night sky subconsciously, and then immediately let out a scream of surprise.
Because it's really beautiful.
In the sky, she could see a Milky Way composed of countless stars. It was like a ribbon of stars drawing a long river from the sky. If so many stars gathered together brightly, it was a scene she had never seen in the city. .
"It looks good. This kind of scene can only be seen here." Nie Wei didn't know when he had walked to Zheng Shuang's side. He also raised his head and looked up at the sky. He was deeply fascinated by the bright Milky Way.
In fact, the conditions for the Milky Way to appear are not harsh. As long as the weather is clear, the air is good, and there is not much light nearby, you can generally see the dazzling Milky Way in summer and autumn.
But even these simple conditions have become a luxury for people living in the city.
"Come here, it's better to lie down and watch the Milky Way." Teacher Huang sat on the wooden slump in the yard and called to the two people standing in the yard looking up at the night sky.
"Here we come!" Nie Wei pulled Zheng Shuang, who was still immersed in the brilliance of the Milky Way, to the wooden collapse together, and then the two of them found a place to lie down.
Standing and looking at the night sky is a different feeling than lying down and looking at the night sky.
Without that down-to-earth feeling, people will feel dizzy, and what they are looking directly at is the night sky with the dazzling Milky Way, as if the whole person is about to fly up, and the Milky Way in the night sky seems to be leaving all of a sudden. It brings everyone much closer.
"It's so beautiful." Zheng Shuang looked at the night sky and murmured in admiration.
"It would be great if there was an astronomical telescope at this time." Nie Wei said with some regret, which also aroused the approval of the others.
"You should know the Big Dipper. How about I teach you how to recognize another constellation?" Since he was idle anyway, Nie Wei took Zheng Shuang aside to chat about the constellations.
In Zheng Shuang's agreement, Nie Wei pointed to the three stars lined up in the sky and introduced: "See the three stars in the direction of my finger? It's the three stars over there that are lined up. Then They are Rigel, Rigel and Betelgeuse in the constellation Orion. If you look along these three stars to the lower right, there is a particularly bright star, which is Rigel in the constellation Orion..."
"Finding this constellation, we can also follow it to find Canis Minor, and the familiar twelve constellations Gemini and Taurus are also nearby."
"Where is the Leo?" Zheng Shuang suddenly asked, because she is a Leo girl.
"Leo is better in April, when its brightness is the highest. It is in the south of the night sky..." Nie Wei looked at the starry sky and carefully identified it. He really found the trace of Leo, and then excitedly said to Zheng Shuang beside him: "There, it looks like an upside-down question mark, that is the tail of Leo."
"At the tail of July, you are Leo, and at the prelude of August, you are Leo..." Just as Nie Wei was helping Zheng Shuang identify Leo, Teacher He, who had been listening to Nie Wei's constellations, couldn't help singing it subconsciously when he heard Nie Wei's "The tail of Leo".
The teaching atmosphere suddenly became funny.
"Nie Wei, you seem to know a lot about constellations." After everyone laughed, Huang Lei couldn't help asking.
"When I was a child, my favorite place to go was the planetarium. Every time I went there, I would stay in the planetarium for most of the day, and I would not leave until I was hungry. My parents would always teach me to recognize various constellations at that time." Nie Wei said with nostalgia.
"I will also take Duoniao to the planetarium more often in the future. Children in the city probably don't know what the Milky Way looks like."
"Teacher Huang, you can actually bring your child to participate in a show." Nie Wei smiled and suggested after hearing Huang Lei's words.
"She is still too young, only four years old. Bringing her will cause too much trouble. I have to work, and I don't have time to take care of her. But I can take her to the countryside more often in my free time. The city has its advantages, and the countryside has its wonders." Huang Lei was a little tempted, but he stopped thinking about it because of the child's age.
On the contrary, after Nie Wei made this suggestion, he suddenly thought of a variety show.
That is naturally the famous "Where Are We Going, Dad?"
This variety show has already met the production conditions. Nie Wei is going to wait for the end of a program recording, and then talk to Ma Dong about this matter, and try to present this variety show as soon as possible.
Everyone talked about the stars for a long time, and they were all sleepy unknowingly. He Jiong suggested that everyone go back to the house to wash up and prepare for bed.
As the only girl, Zheng Shuang enjoyed the only single bed in the room, while the remaining four men had to choose whether to sleep on the kang or another double bed.
But before going to bed, Teacher He's words made everyone stop what they were doing.
