"Let's go to the store first, it's not safe to get out there at night." The shopkeeper spoke calmly, and skillfully groped his way to the door, "I took out the things stored in my library tonight and opened a meat dish for you, which can be regarded as practicing for you in advance, and you will leave early tomorrow morning, right?" ”

Xin Zi looked at the blind shopkeeper with an unexpected face, but Li Yuan was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the blind shopkeeper, wishing that he would follow the shopkeeper into his warehouse at this moment to choose food.

Takemoto quietly followed Xin Zi into the inn.

When it was pitch black outside, the picture of a few people sitting around the wooden table under the dim light of the inn became even more warm.

I didn't expect the blind shopkeeper to have a table of meals, although because of the shortage of goods in this inn, most of the food served on the table was some sauced duck, bacon and smoked fish and other foods that could be stored for a long time, but for the three of Xin Zi, who had been sleeping in the open for a month and even had no food, it was more delicious than the imperial meal in the palace, and everyone was satisfied and ate with relish.

At the dinner table, Li Yuan told the story of how he was miserably abused by Takemoto's software during the day. Takemoto silently ate the food in the bowl, and did not talk to him, nor did he poke him; The blind shopkeeper listened absentmindedly, occasionally interjecting a comment or two; Yuchen didn't look at Li Yuan, and concentrated on lying at Xin Zi's feet to protect a smoked leg of lamb in front of him, tearing it, all taking Li Yuan's words as background sound.

Only Xin Zi listened carefully to Li Yuan's every word with great interest, interacting with him eagerly.

Such enthusiasm made Li Yuan, who had long been accustomed to being cold, a little uncomfortable in the face of Xin Zi's focus on his own mind and Takemoto's contempt and ridicule along the way, and even wondered in his heart whether Xin Zi had a request for himself.

But when she thought of Xin Zi's sad appearance in the evening, she thought that maybe she was afraid that the other people at the table would be infected by her low mood, so she deliberately greeted herself, so Li Yuan redoubled his efforts to talk about his battle with Takemoto, and even talked about the situation encountered in each of the previous battles between the two.

"You should have already seen that I know how to use a secret weapon, and I am good at sneak attacks, and I think I have a good kung fu of escaping from battle on my feet. But in this battle, the emphasis is on the two of them to the point, and it is a frontal battle, and this kind of training method is extremely beneficial to Takemoto, but it is a constraint for me. Come to think of it, every time Takemoto encounters an enemy, she is like a thoughtless walking corpse, she doesn't know how to retreat at all, and she doesn't care whether the opponent's kung fu is above her or not, she will only rush forward with one tendon, she is so arrogant even in actual combat, let alone when she practices with me.

"It's so hard for me that I don't even have a place to hide.

In addition, Takemoto is good at making swords, especially focusing on flexible soft swords, it can be said that he has only specialized in this kind of weapon since he was a child, and has already practiced to the point of perfection, and when the sword is released, the soft sword seems to grow in the hand, and the body is integrated, and the direction of the soft sword blade is free according to his own ideas.

"But look at me again, everything is half-baked, except for the middle of the gap to catch the enemy's weakness to use that flying knife, it is easy not to use your own hidden weapon, most of the time when against the enemy, you rely on the weapon to take people for your own use."

"This kind of tactic is nothing more than using speed at the beginning, and it is all about the first move being fast enough and taking it by surprise.

"And after seizing people's weapons, you can boost your own prestige and weaken the morale of the other party at the same time, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"You must know that when you really meet the enemy, the mystery of success or failure is hidden in the first few moves, if you lose momentum at the beginning, your mind begins to waver, and then it will be difficult to have a fixed pattern.

"I've relied on this all the way through.

"But the problem with this routine is that I know a little bit about the eighteen kinds of martial arts, but I am not proficient in it.

"When I was training against each other, the mentality of the two of them tended to be peaceful, and there would be no hesitation or even mental shock at the moment of life and death, and my advantage was mostly gone.

"What's worse is that my surprisingly winning method doesn't work at all in front of Takemoto.

"In terms of speed and precision, I can't compare to her.

"Unless it's a collaboration with someone, let my partner in the same camp face Takemoto first, and then I'll wait and see what happens, and see the opportunity to find Takemoto's loopholes and subdue her.

"But now it's one-on-one, and I have no chance of winning......"

The more Li Yuan spoke, the more energetic he became, and he didn't forget to look at Takemoto with a look of grievance during the period.

Takemoto didn't say a word, but his face sank.

That's what she's been confused about.

Li Yuan's kung fu is not suitable for acting alone at all, he must rely on one or two reliable companions to bring his abilities to the extreme, but the dark piles are all acting alone with hidden identities, when Lord Zuo cultivated him before, did he think from the beginning that he would meet himself and cooperate with himself?

Thinking together, Takemoto was shocked in his heart.

With Master Zuo's ability to anticipate things like a god, every step should have his reason, and it would definitely not be a mistake caused by a whim to train Li Yuan with so much effort. In this way, is it really possible that he expected to find him from the beginning?

Takemoto had a big drum in his heart, but his face was even more gloomy.

Li Yuan saw that her face was not good, thinking that she was getting carried away, and she had talked a little, and half of the chat was gone, and the conversation was shallow.

For a while, everyone had their own thoughts, and the dinner table was a little quiet.

"Look, how about I be your companion and fight against Takemoto?"

Xin Zi's voice suddenly came into Li Yuan's ears, he ate half of the braised beef, and before he had time to swallow it, he almost choked himself, coughed a few times, and finally hurriedly sent a mouthful of hot soup to relieve it.

"What...... What the? ”

Relieved, he still couldn't believe his ears.

Takemoto was also so shocked that he jumped out of his mind and looked at Xin Zi with round eyes.

Xin Zi explained: "I mean, maybe you can teach me some simple fist and foot kung fu, and if I encounter danger again in the future, I will not be helpless, and I can only rely on you to rescue." ”

Listening to Xin Zi say this, Li Yuan thought about it for a while, and felt that this idea was not bad, in the future, he would not be alone in the face of Takemoto being beaten like a sandbag, not to mention, if he really encountered an enemy, one more person, one more helper, there was always a little more chance of winning.

The more Li Yuan thought about it, the more he felt good, and the confusion on his face faded and was replaced by a satisfied smile.

Takemoto frowned and looked at Xin Zi, and said coldly: "I don't think it's appropriate." (To be continued.) )
