In the days that followed, spring came and winter, Xiao Xingying came to practice with Xingze every day, and she never was coquettish and lazy because she was a girl. Although Yin Bing has a high combat power, he doesn't know how to teach people to practice, he just copies all the procedures that Xuantong's father trained him, the only difference is that he thinks Xingying is a little girl, and he doesn't apply his original strength to her.

Xingzawa originally thought that Xingying was just curious for a while, or like the others in Hitomi City, he was only impressed by his heroic appearance when he fought against the Crystal Pupil Guard, but it was just a superficial idolatry, but after this passion, he gave up after being slapped in the face by reality.

But he didn't expect Starshadow to grit his teeth and persist in all the training. She was also in pain every time she trained, often crying while running with weights, but she refused to let her stop and rest. When she finished running, she smiled like a flower, as if she had accomplished such a remarkable life event.

Xingze sometimes doesn't understand Xingying, I don't know why she is so happy, when he was forced to practice by Xuantong's father, he often thought that it was better to die, and what supported him to persist was that Xuantong's father promised him to make braised pork buns and hot pot for him after training whenever he was about to collapse.

The food in Tongcheng in the last days was very scarce, and Xuan was not an elder at that time, just an ordinary resident. Relying on the recruitment notices issued by the Presbyterian Church or the wealthy merchants in the city, they went to do some hard work somewhere to earn money in exchange for food, and Xingze and they could not eat food processed from natural ingredients at all, and could only eat synthetic food.

Those synthetic foods only had the nutrients and energy necessary for survival, and the taste was really difficult to swallow, and Elder Xuantong got some spices out of nowhere, so he reprocessed those synthetic foods and the taste became much better.

Xingze is not greedy for these delicacies, and these spices themselves are already more precious than gold, and whenever his father makes these foods for him, he feels a feeling of being spoiled, and he relies on this feeling like a drug. There are still people in this world who are willing to spend such extravagant things for themselves, how can such love not be intoxicating.

Starshadow is different, her father is an expert in electronic engineering, and he is the most respected group of people in the last days. Although her mother died early, her father's love for her has never been lacking, and with a solid family, she can live like a princess. But I don't know what crazy she is, she has to follow Xingze to practice martial arts, and she is still happy.

Xingying wore a fat practice uniform, dragging waste tires that were more than a person tall and strung together, and walked through the streets of the slums of Hitomi City, not feeling embarrassed at all, and rushed to practice every day.

After the little gangsters who laughed at Xingze back then saw the battle between Xingze and the Crystal Pupil Guard, they all avoided Xingze with amusement, and never dared to appear in front of him again, they knew how lucky they were to be alive until now. This time, I saw a thin little girl start the same training as Xingze, and they inevitably blew the hooligan whistle in the distance, loudly teasing and saying cheap things.

Xingze wanted to teach those boys a lesson, but Xingying asked with big eyes, "Of course they treated you like this?"

Xingze nodded slightly.

Starshadow immediately became happy, "Then don't teach them a lesson, I just want to have the same training as you, so that I can be as good as you!"

Xingze really can't understand the brain circuit of this eldest lady, does she have masochistic tendencies? But her character of being able to laugh happily at any time seems to illuminate Xingze's heart that has always been gloomy and lonely. As long as you are with her, it seems that everything is not to worry about, and even if you are in the garbage heap, you can bloom gorgeous flowers.

Gradually, Xingze has become accustomed to Xingying gathering around him every day to ask this and that, and talk about the trivial things she has experienced and heard, although he is still silent, but what even he doesn't know is that the ice in his eyes is melting little by little.

Seeing that Xiao Xingying had just run ten laps around the city with weights, and the broken hair on his forehead was sticking to his face, Xingze said, "From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to run with weights!"

"Ah, why? Am I doing something badly, why didn't you let me do it!"

Xing Ze only moved the corners of his mouth slightly, and his eyes softened slightly, even if he was laughing, "You can practice sword from tomorrow, your qi is enough!"

"Ah, really?

Xiao Xingying jumped up, she suddenly hugged Xingze, hugged him, and then quickly left, running away, and her voice came from afar:

"Tomorrow will be the same time, the same place, we will see you soon!"

Xingze stood in place for a long time before dragging his legs and slowly walking back.

His legs are almost better under the effect of the crystal pupil chip, Xuantong's father once sternly asked Yin Bing to work hard to control his legs to walk like a normal person, although in this way Yin Bing has to spend several times more strength than ordinary people to control his two legs to take the same step, but this did play a very real role in his recovery, and just now he actually forgot to control his legs.

The next day, at the same time and place, Xiao Xingying looked forward to Xingze through the autumn water. Xingze found that Xiao Xingying was wearing a new dress today, a lilac jacket with a long hem that looked like a skirt, and under the coat were tight leggings, which lined her legs long and straight.

Xingze smiled like a paralyzed face again, took out something from his arms and handed it to Xiao Xingying, "This is for you!"

Xiao Xingying took it and saw that it was a short sword, with a deerskin sheath and a hilt made of brass, which was not only carved with patterns, but also inlaid with a red gem, which was very exquisite.

"Wow, this is so pretty, why did you give me such an expensive gift?"

"It's not precious, I made it, this size is more suitable for you!"

Hearing this, Xiao Xingying rubbed the short sword very cherishedly, "Then I'll take it, thank you Brother Xingze!"

Xingze later knew why Xiao Xingying had changed her clothes, she was dancing like a butterfly dancing in this outfit, beautiful.

From that day on, Little Star Shadow began to practice swords with Xingze, and time flew by, and Little Star Shadow grew from a slender little girl to a jade and beautiful girl.

This year, Xiao Xingying was sixteen years old, and Xingze was nineteen years old. Xiao Xingying participated in the Crystal Pupil Chip Candidate Selection Competition, at the beginning because she was the daughter of Chen Jinzhi, who was promoted to an elder after the former Tongcheng Councilor, some people once thought that her participation in the selection was shady, but when she beat all the challengers away in the audition stage, everyone shut up.

In the end, Xiao Xingying was implanted with the crystal pupil chip with the first score in the overall score, and Chen Biying replaced Xingying and became a crystal pupil guard.

"Master, master, what's wrong with you! Master, wake up!"

Yin Bing was pulled back to reality by the crying wolf howl of the idol ghost, and he found himself standing on the floor of the living room with a sword in one hand.

"Master, great, you have finally returned to your soul, I thought you were going to drive the crane west! You scared me to death, if you are gone, what should I do, do you want my yellow-haired dog to send the black-haired man?"
