Chapter 21: Swordsmanship
Early the next morning, Yu Han, who had been practicing all night, got up early, and when he saw Amy, who was still sleeping on the side, he quietly covered her with a quilt. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info opened the jar of food and saw that there were only a few sticks of black bread inside, and Yu Han's heart couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Although he had known all this through the fragments of Bill's memories in his mind, he was still sad about Amy's previous life.
Exhaled, slowly walked out of the door, and came to a small backyard, Yu Han took out the white long sword from the ring, this weapon as a seventh-order white knight swordsman, unconsciously very good, and looking at the style, it should have been the weapon of the martial artist of the East before.
Then he took out the black paint he had prepared in advance, painted the white sword black, and finally attached some dust spells, and he got a black longsword that looked very shabby.
Now that you're ready to learn swordsmanship, you have to start practicing seriously!
Due to the fact that he had studied swordsmanship with Artoria before, with his strong spiritual power in the foundation building period, ordinary people had to learn basic swordsmanship for a year or two, and Yu Han had already mastered it in a month.
"This backyard", Yu Han glanced at it, although it was small, it was enough for sword practice.
The basic swordsmanship that Artoria gave herself is different from the swordsmanship of the East, which is basically divided into basic footwork, four kinds of posture, and some special skills in attack movements.
Plough position, cattle position, top position, deception position; Slash, Thrust, Drag, Defensive Block, Rage, Crosshair, Split, Warp, Glimpse; Wrap around the sword, listen to the strength, fold the sword, and grab the sword.
These foundations must be practiced every day, and the tricks of the routine must be broken down and practiced again and again, so that ordinary swordsmanship can reach amazing power.
Yu Han held the hilt of the sword with both hands, and suddenly exerted force, the slash was both powerful and precise, with the help of the excellent physical fitness of the body during the foundation building period, the air sounded the sword roar again and again, the hilt of the sword was held weakly, and it rotated back freely, and the blade was always facing the direction of the chopping, and immediately returned to the starting posture after an attack.
Once, ten, hundred, thousand, Yu Han exerted his strength again and again, flat chopping, upper chopping, dragging cutting, stabbing, blocking, splitting the left side, stabbing the right side, simple movements are constantly repeated again and again, these simple actions are the most important tricks of Western swordsmanship.
When he practiced each movement a thousand times with all his strength, Yu Han was already sore and sweating all over his body, and in the past, he used to train with Artoria usually one or two hundred times, but now he is practicing desperately.
"Bang!" When he slashed forward with all his strength again, the huge inertia made his hand shook, and with a bang, the long sword had already fallen to the ground.
Yu Han half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, sweating all over his body, looking at the long sword on the ground.
Although I am very determined, I still want to give up when my body is extremely tired!
Yu Han raised his head and looked to the side, in the past, Artoria would have seriously criticized herself on the side, but now it won't!
"Get me up, go on!"
"Why do you have to interfere with my fate!"
"He is my mentor who has been with me and educated me since I was born, and you are nothing more than a stranger who has broken into my life."
"Stranger!"
Artoria's words rang vaguely in her ears.
"You're mine! Nothing can be taken away! There was a strong unwillingness and anger in his eyes.
"Get up! Get up for me! Yu Han grabbed his sword and stood up.
"Hack!"
Yu Han once again slashed out with all his might.
"Even if you don't want to, it's my woman!" Yu Han's eyes were red, frantically slashing and stabbing again and again, and only when he lost it would he realize how precious it was.
Once again, he practiced flat chopping, upper chopping, dragging and cutting, thrusting, and blocking a thousand times, Yu Han's whole body was covered with sweat, he fell to his knees, his hands were completely numb, and the last hundred times were completely supported by his will to the present.
At this time, the door was pushed open, and Amy came out with sleepy eyes, rubbing her eyes, and pouting to the young man lying on the ground in a big shape, "Brother, what are you doing?" ”
"Water!" Yu Han said hoarsely to Amy in a throat that was almost parched.
"Oh!" Amy shook her head helplessly, and hurriedly brought out a large glass of water from the wooden table.
Yu Han stretched out his left hand tremblingly, picked up the water cup, and drank it all in one go.
Immediately, with his eyes closed again, his hands were knotted with a strange handprint, absorbing and operating the Qing Ming Sutra in his body, deriving magic power from the Soul Gathering Banner, and constantly surging in the meridians in his body, circulating throughout his body, constantly moisturizing his body that had been completely overdrawn.
The whole body is itchy, the most obvious is his own hands, obviously, the magic is constantly being absorbed by the hungry body, the more tired he is, the better the absorption of the magic power.
Little Amy took a closer look at the sweat that was already soaked from the backyard and Yu Han.
"Brother, don't work so hard, your body will not be able to stand it." Amy bit her lower lip and said a little lonely, "It's all Amy's fault, if it weren't for Amy, my brother would have eaten more food and practiced more swordsmanship." ”
The little girl's warm words drowned out the anger in her heart for Artoria, and she saw a gentle smile on the corner of Yu Han's mouth, she could absorb the magic power of the outside world to replenish the consumption of her body, but it was not comparable to those swordsmen who had not broken through the fourth order.
Yu Han chuckled and touched Amy's little head and said, "Stupid Amy, don't think so much, be good, my brother will take you to eat delicious food in a while." ”
"Well, Amy will be good." Amy nodded fiercely, "Brother goes out to eat, Amy can eat at home." ”
"What a stupid thing!" Yu Han gently knocked Amy's head, "The black bread at home is almost moldy." ”
"But doesn't my brother still want to learn swordsmanship?" Amy asked curiously.
Yu Han was silent for a while, then raised his head and said to Amy with a smile: "It's okay to learn in the army, and I won't go to Master Rich in the future." ”
"As long as my brother makes more achievements in the army, those high-level swordsmanship don't need to spend money to go to the martial arts hall to learn, and the family can eat better."
"Really?" Amy asked, wide-eyed.
"Really." Yu Han smiled and nodded, and then stood up slowly, his body still a little weak.
"Amy, close your eyes."
Amy didn't know what Yu Han was going to do, but she still closed her eyes obediently because she believed in her brother.
I saw Yu Han half-kneeling, took out a guardian wooden plate with complex runes drawn from the ring, and then strung it with a red thread, carefully hung it on Amy's neck, and then kissed Amy's cheek.
"Amy, open your eyes."
Yu Han rubbed Amy's head and said, "Let's go, wash your face, my brother will take you to eat white bread." ”
Amy touched the wooden sign hanging around her neck, and a happy smile suddenly appeared on her face, for her, as long as she is with her brother, it is happiness.
"Brother, what is this?" Amy smiled happily and asked curiously.
"That's it." Yu Han looked at Amy's face similar to Bill, and then smiled softly, "This is a guardian wooden card left by a swordsman named Merry to his brother, my brother has always carried it, and now I give it to you, it contains his and his brother's thoughts, and they will always guard you!" ”
"Really!" Amy held up the wooden sign and looked curiously at the intricate patterns on it in the morning sun.
Yu Han nodded, and said with a hint of loneliness, "If your brother leaves in the future, if you take it with you, it is equivalent to your brother always being by your side!" ”
Amy puffed out her cheeks and shook her head, "My brother won't leave Amy, Amy will always be with my brother!" The little girl in front of her looked into her eyes seriously and said.
"But my brother is a soldier, a soldier, and he will go to other places to carry out missions in the future, and sometimes he will not come back for a long, long time." Yu Han looked at the sky and smiled helplessly, "Brother hopes that Amy can live happily and happily at that time!" ”
"Don't!!"
Little Amy's eyes kept flowing with tears, she threw the wooden card in her hand on the ground, and then hugged Yu Han's leg tightly, "This wooden card, Amy doesn't want it, Amy wants her brother to stay by her side!" ”
"Good, good! Brother won't leave Amy, let's go eat first! Yu Han was helpless, so he could only coax Amy first.
"Pull Hook!" Amy wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stretched out her fingers and said in a milky voice. "My brother has to promise not to leave Amy, he will always live well, and he will always be with Amy!"
"If you have a girlfriend, you can't do it!"
"Haha......" Yu Han smiled, sweating a little in his heart, as if he had underestimated Amy's intelligence.
"Smack!" Sleeping technique, Amy fell into Yu Han's arms and fell asleep.
After that, Yu Han carried Amy to the bed and hung the guard card that Amy had just dropped around her neck again.
Touching Amy's little head, Yu Han couldn't help but sigh lightly, "Actually, I'm not your brother, but your enemy!" ”
When he kept suffering from the chaos, he should go, get out of here, the north is his goal, looking at the little tears that still left in the corners of Amy's eyes, he sighed lightly, and if he didn't leave, he couldn't leave.
Then he picked up Amy and walked out.
Walk through West Street to East Street, where merchants and knights live, while searching for the kind friends who are close to Bill in their minds, but only find Hal and Master Richie, and the others are left alone.
A year later, the knight king would be officially crowned, and then ten years of war, and the Saxons as invaders would be defeated at that time, either as war slaves, or in the chaos of the British Isles and return to the European continent.
I had to find someone who had enough strength to protect Amy.
Hal has a good relationship with Bill, is Bill's comrade-in-arms, and likes Amy very much, and Amy can rest assured that he will hand it over to Yu Han.
Richie has a good relationship with Bill, but his identity is different, he is a grand knight comparable to a nobleman, and there is a fundamental difference between him and a commoner like Bill.
"Give it to Hal." Yu Han thought so, "It's a big deal to remind him to leave the British Isles within a year." ”
