CHAPTER XII

"Someone like me?"

Greatsword listened to Sulfona's words and suddenly fell silent. The expression on her face www.biquge.info was sad and joyful, and she looked very strange. Sulfona suddenly stopped, she was a little frightened, for fear that the big sword would kill herself in a fit of rage. Unexpectedly, Dajian suddenly put down the sword in his hand, grabbed Sulfona's waist with both hands, and pressed her to the ground. Sulfona was about to struggle, when she suddenly felt an invisible pressure on her.

That's actually the demonic aura of the Great Sword. When he first encountered the big sword, the big sword was weak, and naturally there was no extra demonic energy to be released. After that, Greatsword was also very careful not to let his demonic energy oppress Sulfona. Now that she is no longer suppressed, Sulfur's feet suddenly weakened. Sulfona gasped for breath, and suddenly her hands were raised by the great sword again.

"You don't want to learn? I'm going to teach you. I want you to engrave this set of swordsmanship deeply in your bones, so that you will never forget it again. Okay, this is the first trick, it's called 'get up in the morning and get dressed', have you learned it? ”

"What kind of swordsmanship are you! I don't want to learn! ”

Sulfona shouted, but suddenly felt her arm go numb. The big sword didn't know what joint it was pinching, and Sulfona felt that her whole body was not her own. She wanted to resist, but she felt powerless, so she was at the mercy of the big sword. The greatsword pulled Sulfona up from the ground again, letting her put one hand in front of her.

"It's called 'a glass of water after waking up'!"

Later, Dajian taught Sulfur to "go out in the morning and step on her left foot", "walk on the road and fall", "see the fruit tree hit a shot", "squat down to pick up fruit", "see the stream and take a sip", "jump down the stream to touch the fish", ...... In this way, there are a total of sixty-four moves, which sound like they are all movements of everyday life. Maybe the real sword moves of the big sword are so weird, or maybe the big sword is just angry and thinks of some temporary actions to teach Sulfur Na. Which one it is, Sulfura doesn't know, and she doesn't want to ask Greatsword. After she was dragged like this two or three times, the big sword suddenly let go of her hand. Sulfona only felt dizzy, and her body involuntarily rehearsed sixty-four moves at a time according to inertia. The big sword saw it and clapped his hands repeatedly.

"Okay, okay, have you learned my 'fool sword technique'?"

"What kind of dogskin swordsmanship are you!"

Dajian didn't get annoyed when he heard this, he just smiled.

"Now that you have learned my swordsmanship, I will be your master. Come, hurry up and kneel down and kowtow to Master. ”

"The ghost will kowtow to you!"

Sulfur slammed her neck, and saw that Dajian's face darkened again. She wanted to say a few more words, but she felt a strong force pressing on her shoulder. I saw that the big sword didn't know when he put his sword on Sulfona's back. The sword was almost as tall as Sulfona, and it was made of solid iron, and it was deadly heavy. Sulfur felt that her two shoulders were pressed by the sword, her legs and stomach were trembling, and her body was almost pressed directly to the ground. But Sulfona gritted her teeth and insisted on standing up. She spread her legs slightly, pressed one hand to her knee, and held her sword up.

"I'm not going to kowtow to you."

"Oh, the little idiot still has some skills." Greatsword looked at Sulfur and nodded, "You hate me so much, don't use the swordsmanship I taught you." ”

"Who used your dogskin swordsmanship?"

"Isn't that what you're using now, 'squat down and pick up fruit'?"

Sulfona was stunned for a moment. She looked at her posture, her knees spread, and one hand was placed on her knee, which was indeed the "squatting down to pick up fruit" that she had just learned before. Those sixty-four moves had unconsciously melted into Sulfona's body, and Sulfona did it unconsciously. Thinking of this, Sulfona got angry and took her hand off her knee. She was reluctant to use the moves of a great sword. Although this was only a simple move, as soon as Sulfona's posture changed, she felt as if the weight on her shoulders had increased several times. With a pop, Sulfona fell to her knees.

"Good, good, good kneeling." Dajian clapped his hands and laughed, "Little fool, you have worshiped your master now, you need to know your master's name." Do you know my name? ”

“……”

"Hmph, you remember. My name is Simona, and I was given a nickname called 'Rock Sword'. ”

"Is it because you are cold-blooded and ruthless, and your heart is like a rock?" Sulfona said coldly.

"There's a reason for that, and you're right." Simona wasn't angry, she looked Sulfura up and down a few more times, and nodded, "Very good, very good." I'm done here, and it's time to go. ”

"You're leaving?"

"Don't you want me to go?"

"How is that possible?" Sulfur immediately shook her head, "You cold-blooded monster, it's better to leave as soon as possible!" ”

"You're right, Sulfona. It's better for a cold-blooded monster like me to leave early. ”

Sulfona was stunned when she heard this. On weekdays, Simona either calls her a "little idiot" or a "silly girl", and when she gets angry, she directly calls her a "stupid". Sulfona thought she didn't know her name. Unexpectedly, the big sword knew that Sulfur was called Sulfona, and Sulfur didn't know that Sulfur was called Simona. Thinking of this, Sulfona's heart softened, but she still frowned and continued to speak coldly.

"Then why don't you hurry up?"

After Sulfona finished speaking, she didn't wait for Greatsword's answer. She looked around, and the woods were empty, and there was no longer half a figure to be seen. The sword that was still pressing on Sulfona's shoulder just now didn't know when it was taken away by Simona. Sulfona rubbed her shoulders and stood up, not knowing what it was like. During this time, although Greatsword sneered at Sulfona, he never really fought Sulfona. Sometimes she would fetch some game from the mountains for Sulfura to eat, and also taught Irona some swordsmanship that could help her chop wood and carry water.

People are like this, they will only think of the good of others after they are gone. Sulfona froze in place, her face flushed from the setting sun. The house she built for Simona hid Sulfona's shadow in the setting sun. There was also some dry food and water that Sulfona had prepared for Simona, and there were several logs next to the house that had not been used up. When people went to the empty building, the wind was bleak, and Sulfur sat in front of the house until the sun went down completely, and then went home.

When I got home, it was getting late, and Sulfona's father was already asleep. A faint light peeked through the crack in the door. When Sulfona's mother saw that Sulfura was back, she picked up the food on the table and went back to the kitchen to relight the heat. She told Sulfur to put out the oil lamp, because the stove was turned on and the lamp was not needed.

Her shadow flickered in the faint light of the oil lamp. Oil lamps are not often found in Sulfona, and to light them requires a special purchase of lamp oil at the market near the castle. Some lamp oils are made from the fat left over from the slaughter of sheep, while others are squeezed from the fruit of a tree. The light of the oil lamp divided the room into light and dark, and between those boundaries, Sulfur saw her mother's laundry resting on the table. In recent days, I have often helped Simona with work, and her clothes have been worn out a lot, and my mother should have been sewing clothes with needles and threads just now.

"Where the hell did you go when you came back so late?"

Sulfona suddenly wanted to tell her mother everything. There were so many things that had happened during this time, and the weight was even more than the sum of the ten years of life experience of Sulfona. She mentally organizes the language, squeezing it into a single sentence. Sort out the context of the sentence, and then fill in the subject, predicate, and object, all of which look so organized.

I unknowingly became friends with the daughter of the lord here, and I also learned a set of swordsmanship from the lord's daughter, and if I practiced it well, I could join the army and go to battle and kill the enemy. If he had been able to make meritorious contributions, his father would no longer have to farm, and his mother would no longer have to sew clothes. But the lord's daughter is in trouble, and she must help her, and this may provoke the lord's wife and bring disaster to the family. But it doesn't matter, I also made a big sword, and I learned the skills from that big sword in a not very pleasant way, and it was not a problem to deal with one or two mercenaries.

Sulfona took the words in her mouth, twisted them around with her tongue a few times, and swallowed them back.

"I was playing in the woods and accidentally got lost, so I came back late."

"Okay, pay attention next time."

Her mother, who was living on a hot meal, didn't think that Sulfura might lie to her, because Sulfura had never lied before.

Sulfona's mother smiled at Sulfona, and then continued to gossip with Sulfona. Sulfona smiled back at her mother, and blew out the oil lamp on the table.

Pale gray smoke flew from the oil lamp.

Sulfona finally learns to use lies after Simona is gone. She didn't feel like she had grown up or matured. There was only some sadness in her heart, like the smoke after the oil lamp had gone out.

Early the next morning, Sulfona was woken up. When she opened her eyes, she saw Tifa's hair hanging down to her chest. Tifa's hair looks much smoother than Sulfona's, and there are no split ends. Sulfona opened her mouth and was about to speak, but Tifa covered her mouth.

"Don't make a sound, hurry up and follow me."

Sulfona was dragged off the bed by Tifa. She was blown by the cold wind of the early morning, and she couldn't help but shiver a little. And Sulfona was very unaccustomed to Tifa at this distance, so she hurriedly picked up the clothes she had at hand, but was stopped by Tifa.

"Wear this one."

Tifass came over with a black and white pair, and Sulfona carefully touched it with the tips of her fingers, and felt that the texture was good, much better than her own clothes. However, Sulfur didn't know how to wear it, so Tifa came directly and forcibly stuffed Sulfur into her clothes, and then tied the straps layer by layer. A pair of everything is good, but it is a little big, and the skirt almost dragged to the ground. Sulfona rarely wore skirts, she felt cold underneath. And the skirt is heavy, and it is not very convenient to move.

"Don't worry so much! Listen, now you're my maid! ”

Tifa took Sulfur out of the window, looking at Tifa's familiar appearance, as if she had come in this way in the morning. As soon as it was getting dark, Sulfona stretched. His parents should not have gotten up at this time. Tifa dragged Sulfura for a while, and finally let go.

"Really, that's how you usually sleep in your house?"

"Where do you sleep?"

"It's just sitting on the bed and putting your body in a weird pose......"

Sulfona realizes that Tifa is talking about a "cross-legged" position. Last month, Sulfona changed her sleeping style to sit cross-legged. This is more effective than sleeping, and it can also restore some minor injuries to the body. But for some reason, Sulfona doesn't look like she's explaining anything about Simona to Tifa right now.

"It's not important, why did you pull me here?"

"That's ......"

Tifa apparently doesn't really care about this either. She opened her mouth to explain to Sulfona, but her eyes widened. Seems to see something. Tifa quickly pulled Sulfur and hid in the nearby bushes. Sulfona's newly changed clothes had been cut several times by tiny branches, and she felt a little distressed. Tifa still pressed her head down.
