Chapter 21 The so-called sword
As night fell, Emilia came to the cemetery again, took off her cloak and handed it to Garfield, who was with her. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Caiyue Pleiades, who has been silent, saw that the girl was about to enter the trial again, and the words that were suppressed in her mouth and wanted to replace the other party finally turned into a few words of worry.
"Be safe, Amilia. ”
"Yes. With a grateful smile at the other, Emilia waved her left hand, picked up the crisp sound of the bell, and turned and walked into the cemetery.
Seeing the girl's figure disappear into the depths of the corridor, Garfield and Caiyue found a big tree to block the evening breeze and began to wait for a long time.
"By the way, what did you mean when you said in the morning that the Sanctuary wasn't safe recently?" Caiyue Pleiades, who was looking for the topic, asked what he was more concerned about.
Anyway, it was boring left and right, and Garfield, who was leaning back against the big tree, folded his hands behind his head and said, "Most of the subhumans who live here are trying to escape the crusade that the kingdom began forty years ago. As the rumors of the past decade have gradually subsided, many people have moved their minds to leave. ”
"After all, not everyone is willing to lurk in this cage and spend their lives in mediocrity. The people who wanted to leave the Sanctuary gathered together and chose a Barbary Asian to be their leader. ”
The frowning Caiyue squatted down and rubbed her hands, the evening breeze tonight was a little cool. After the warm-up, he continued to ask, "And then, is this guy named Barbary troublesome?"
"Because his parents died at the hands of humans, he hated humans terribly. In addition, Mistress Emilia's trial failed. Garfield shrugged his shoulders and said in a helpless tone, "It's a simple and happy thing to kill a few humans out of anger when you're in a bad mood." ”
"I sense the malice of your subhumans. Hey, it's really not peaceful to get there. The grumbling Natsuki stood up and shook her legs, "You're not going to watch them kill me, are you?" ”
Hearing Caiyue's words, Garfield raised his eyebrows proudly, and didn't wait for him to answer. Ryuori, who ran in a panic from a distance, instantly caught their attention.
"Old woman, you're late...... Mistress Emilia has already entered. Garfield squinted at the anxious Ruori, a little confused about what the other party meant.
"Are you alright?" Ryuori, who stopped, also showed a confused expression.
"What do you call this, how can we be fine. Suddenly, Garfield, who was a little fried, began to grin habitually again.
"Then Barbary, who are they looking for?" Ryuori frowned inexplicably, pinching his chin with a palm half smaller than a normal man, and the thoughtful Ruori's eyes lit up, "Where is that swordsman named Arashi?"
……
……
"You've been sitting like this all day, you're not tired. The red lotus, which shook her head and tail, rubbed beside her partner. Ever since Emilia left, Arashi had been sitting cross-legged on the stone like this, holding her karma motionless on her legs.
"Get out of the way, I'm in Wujian. Lan, who was in a good mood, pushed Red Lotus's buttocks with her hand, but her eyes were always fixed on the calm lake in front of her, as if she could take a new look at the pond water that she had seen for a day.
"Wu Sword?!" Red Lotus came to her senses, for this earth dog who had no combat power, every time she heard such a word from Lan's mouth, she would be particularly excited, "Tell me quickly, what did you think of." ”
"Didn't think of anything. The lazy Arashi then replied, finally moving her gaze from the surface of the lake to the vast sky.
"Then what the hell is your laid-back and complacent face, Kojiro and Musashi said: they are waiting for you to go back. Give me a little sense of urgency, bastard!" Red Lotus, frowning, reiterated how tricky the situation was.
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south. Reciting a Buddha language in his mouth, Lan's eyebrows, who were suddenly solemn, frowned slightly, picked up the karma on his leg and let the hilt of the sword lean on his shoulder, and after posing as an old monk, he closed his eyes and pursed his lips and said, "So, what do you think of this appearance?"
"Damn, I'm worried about you. The grinning red lotus opened her mouth and bit down on Lan's thigh, which caused him to laugh
"Okay, okay, it's because I can't think of anything that I think it's funny. Lan smiled and opened Honglian's mouth with her hand, and said inexplicably confidently: "Don't worry, I will win." ”
"Really?!" Red Lotus turned her face suspiciously, wondering what was hidden under Lan's relaxed expression.
"Yes. Lan nodded unceremoniously, revealing an innocent smile that Red Lotus hadn't seen for a long time, "I'm very excited now, Red Lotus." ”
"What do you mean?" Honglian blinked, the confusion on her face intensifying.
"To get a glimpse of the mountaintop, you don't necessarily have to climb up step by step. If you stand at the foot of the mountain, if you go a little farther away, even if the mountain is shrouded in mist, there will be a day when it will dissipate. They may know the outline of the mountain better than the person standing at the top. Is this the case with the so-called kendo? ”
Honglian, who was completely incomprehensible, could only watch Lan stand up with a confused expression, patting the dust on her ass with her hand.
"There are seventy-four moves to resist the water flow and thirty-six moves to resist the wind flow, and there are forty-five moves that require both hands to hold the sword. Losing an arm is a complete loss of the opportunity to wield them. But so what!" Arashi, who pulled the karma out of the sheath, turned around and jumped off the stone in one step, walking towards the gloomy forest in the distance.
And Red Lotus saw that on the opposite side of Lan Qian, suddenly there were more than a dozen people who didn't know when they were lurking, and they were walking out of the dark forest step by step.
"Hey, you kid, you're the human who got in the way of the trial, right? The guy who seemed to be the leader clenched his fists and made a crunch sound of breaking joints, "Look at you, you have suffered a lot." ”
Lan seemed to hear the other party's words, his eyes moved along the smooth sword body of the karma, and continued to say to himself: "What is the sword move? What is the so-called genre? Why should I use such a framework to bind myself and the sword in this small world." ”
"Hey, are you listening to us? Are you ignoring me...... Guys...... ......" The man who opened his mouth to help his companion looked unprepared at the long sword pierced into his chest, and the panicked look of suddenly losing his life had just emerged, and it had already begun to freeze into eternity.
"A sword is just a sword. Arashi, who had pulled the karma out again, walked towards another nearby enemy, swinging his blade and slashing out a cloud of blood.
"Holding it, and following its trajectory, is enough to kill the enemy. Arashi, who didn't stop, moved in the moonlight. The karma in his hand rolled up a burst of silver sword qi, enveloping the rest of the people one after another.
There was not even time left for the other party to scream, the silent killing was fleeting, and Lan, who had already finished dealing with the enemy, returned to sit cross-legged in front of the staggering Red Lotus, and continued to mutter, "I think I've found a way to combine the water flow and the wind flow into one. ”
