Wang Xiaotian's mind was like electricity, and according to what he said, he imagined it, and sure enough, he had a lot of insights.

He relaxes his arms and wrists, reducing the force and amplitude of his swing. Every time the sword is released, it is no longer deliberately required to have a fixed height and a fixed angle, but to hand over the control of the sword to the muscles. All I have in mind is the target of the attack.

What the heart thinks, the sword goes, in this way, the speed of the sword has increased by three points.

Zhou Ziheng knew that Wang Xiaotian's basic swordsmanship was very solid. This is the foundation he laid with countless sweats.

These days, he found that Wang Xiaotian spends at least one hour every day to hone his sword skills, splitting, chopping, stabbing, picking, wiping, hooking, hanging, pointing, and teasing.

The foundation is solid, and that's a good thing. However, these basic sword skills have been practiced for a long time, and although they are extremely familiar, they have also formed a fixed program, and the angle, strength, and direction of each move and style are fixed, just like a sophisticated machine.

If he continues to practice like this, Wang Xiaotian can become a master of swordsmanship, but he can't become a master, let alone a grandmaster.

Zhou Ziheng has long wanted to find an opportunity to teach Wang Xiaotian how to live and apply and change flexibly. However, if he taught Wang Xiaotian when he practiced swordsmanship in ordinary times, because there was no actual combat environment, it would make Wang Xiaotian confused, unclear, and even shake Wang Xiaotian's determination to practice the foundation.

Therefore, he has been lacking an opportunity, an opportunity to fight the enemy. This opportunity came just in time.

After Zhou Ziheng's guidance, Wang Xiaotian's perception of swordsmanship rose in a straight line and improved a lot.

Three minutes later, more than a dozen octopus monsters turned into scrap copper and rotten iron. His sword skills are no longer the same, and the rules remain the same.

Every sword he used began to become light and lively, unrestrained, and every sword made people feel like a whimsical, antelope hanging horns, coming and going without a trace, the moon and the wind were light, and the clouds were light and the sky was high, leaving many possibilities.

For example, in the middle of the old era, the ink landscape paintings of Danqing masters were left blank, and the meaning was still unfinished.

Five minutes later, more than twenty octopus monsters turned into scrap copper and rotten iron. Wang Xiaotian's swordsmanship gradually echoed before and after, harmonious and self-consistent, and looked pleasing to the eye.

Zhou Ziheng smiled and said, "Well, I already have the appearance of being a teacher when I was young. To practice swords, you have to practice in actual combat to gain something, and practice by yourself every day is just familiar with the moves. The harvest of your actual combat today, even if you practice for a year, you will not get it. ”

Cao Lianyou saw that Wang Xiaotian was engrossed in practicing swords, and his heart was itching. She waved her arms, imitating Wang Xiaotian's moves.

It's just that Wang Xiaotian's speed is too fast, and she can't keep up at all.

With a few waves of his arms, Cao Lianyou stopped, pouted and asked Zhou Ziheng, "Teacher, when can I practice swords?"

Zhou Ziheng hurriedly comforted Cao Lianyou softly and said, "Don't worry. After three months, you'll be almost able to practice swords. When the time comes, let Wang Xiaotian be your sparring partner. The teacher will ask him to teach you all the things he has learned today. ”

Cao Lianyou clapped her hands happily and said, "Great, great." Teacher, you have to talk about it. ”

Zhou Ziheng said angrily: "When is the teacher, it doesn't matter what you say to Lianyou?" As he spoke, he turned his head to Wu Ling'er and said, "You go back and take care of Lianyou, and let Wang Xiaotian try it alone." ”

Wu Ling'er said with some concern: "Is this okay?"

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it. Small tree, pay attention to the octopus monster. ”

There are less than six octopus monsters on Zhou Ziheng's side, and he is easy to deal with. He didn't use a sword anymore, and every time the octopus monster approached, he scurried over with a ghostly body and kicked far away.

The octopus monster also has no memory, it got up when it was kicked away, and then quickly crawled over here, and then was kicked away by Zhou Ziheng.

Repeat the cycle.

Shen Shuming heard Zhou Ziheng greet him and immediately put away the battle knife.

At first, when he saw these octopus monsters, they were overwhelming, countless, and he didn't know the level of combat power, so he didn't keep his hand, and he started killing as soon as he came up.

When he later found out that these octopus monsters were no longer increasing, but slowly decreasing, he also slowed down.

When he saw that Zhou Ziheng asked Wang Xiaotian to make a move and use the octopus monster to hone Wang Xiaotian's sword skills, Shen Shuming understood and began to paddle and fish.

Now Zhou Ziheng said directly, let him keep some octopus monsters for Wang Xiaotian to practice swordsmanship, of course he was happy and relaxed, no longer moved, but moved his feet like Zhou Ziheng, and kicked away whenever he was close.

By doing so, they were controlling the number of octopus monsters around Wang Xiaotian.

Wu Ling'er put her mind at ease, her figure flashed, and she went directly to Cao Lianyou's side. The two octopus monsters she was blocking immediately besieged Wang Xiaotian.

Wang Xiaotian was attacked by the enemy on his back and abdomen, and immediately rushed to take care of one thing and the other, and was almost caught by the octopus monster several times.

The situation immediately became critical.

Zhou Ziheng immediately instructed: "Hold steady and don't panic." Although there are many of them, they are slower than yours, so you have to move and make good use of your speed and distance to break them down. ”

"Yes, that's all. In the future, if you encounter a multi-person siege, if you don't have a wide range of skills, or if you can't use them, you have to use speed and distance to play the time difference and break them down. ”

Zhou Ziheng is a good teacher, and his guidance is always so critical and sharp.

Wang Xiaotian is also a good student. Under the guidance of Zhou Ziheng, Wang Xiaotian walked flexibly and shuttled lightly, and the octopus monsters used their tentacles to weave a net of heaven and earth, with precise control of the distance, and seemingly random stabs, points, wipes, and slashes, at critical moments, cut off the tentacles that threatened him the most, or kill a lone octopus monster, and break their siege.

It seems that it is not so many octopus monsters chasing and intercepting him at all, but he is holding the noses of the octopus monsters and calmly playing in them.

Twenty minutes later, Wang Xiaotian drew his sword from the round head of the last octopus monster.

Zhou Ziheng stepped forward and smiled: "It's not bad." However, it was still a little bit worse than when he was a teacher (he stretched out his index finger and thumb and measured the distance of about an inch). Keep working hard and you'll soon be able to catch up with the level of the teacher. ”

Wang Xiaotian wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked innocently, "Master, what year was it? How old were you?"

This time, it directly poked Zhou Ziheng's sore spot. Wang Xiaotian is not yet seventeen years old. Not to mention how the Force is (more hurtful than this), Zhou Ziheng thought to himself, his sword skills, can reach such a level, and his age must be no less than twenty years old.

The corner of his mouth twitched, and he kicked Wang Xiaotian's ass, "Stinky boy, don't learn well, just learn to brush your mouth." ”

Although Wang Xiaotian tried hard to dodge, he couldn't dodge, and he was kicked firmly on his buttocks. He groaned and hurriedly ran to Cao Lianyou's side.

Cao Lianyou looked at him with little stars in her eyes, and said happily: "Brother Jian, you are so powerful!"

The corners of Wang Xiaotian's mouth curled up to the sky, "Of course." ”

Cao Lianyou suddenly asked seriously, "But why were you still kicked in the ass by the teacher?"

Wang Xiaotian's smile suddenly froze.

Everyone laughed when they looked at Wang Xiaotian's embarrassed appearance. Cao Lianyou looked at everyone a little confused, not knowing why they were laughing.

Wang Xiaotian's face fell, and he looked resentful, "Pity, you have learned badly." ”

Cao Lianyou's eyes widened, with an innocent expression, "I'm just telling the truth." ”

Wang Xiaotian clutched his chest and looked pained, "Your honest words are so hurtful." ”

Cao Lianyou's face was dazed, "Yes, why don't I think it?" Auntie, do you think there is?"

Wu Ling'er looked at Wang Xiaotian, then at Cao Lianyou, and said, "It's okay, you haven't gotten used to fighting the sword." Fighting the sword, Mercy didn't mean to play tricks on you, she was unintentional, you just got used to it. ”

Wang Xiaotian looked at Cao Lianyou, who had an innocent face, and nodded helplessly.

He deliberately stimulated Zhou Ziheng just now, and he didn't lose that kick. But how could Cao Lianyou also play routines?

Seeing her innocent appearance, it didn't seem like she was pretending, Wang Xiaotian couldn't help but be curious in his heart, could it be that Cao Lianyou still has a poisonous tongue attribute?

The group quickly walked through the factory and came to another exit. There is a road that leads to the left and right directions, and both turn more than 200 meters ahead.

Everyone stood at the intersection and looked at Zhou Ziheng.

Zhou Ziheng pondered for a moment and said, "I saw the people of the Purification Sect going to the left, so let's go to the right." Since they left us first, don't blame us for not being righteous, if there are any good things along the way, put them up first. ”

Not long after walking to the right, a large gate appeared on the mountain wall on the left, with three large white characters on it: "Finished Product Warehouse".

Shen Shuming pushed the door open, the lights in the warehouse turned on, and everyone looked at the empty warehouse.

Immediately, everyone was relieved.

This shelter has never been officially used at all, and the machines in the factory outside have not been started, so how can there be finished products?

Continuing on, we came to a large gate with four large characters written on it: "Raw Material Warehouse".

This time, Wang Xiaotian acted as a coolie and pushed the door open. It was filled with all sorts of shelves, but many of them were empty, and only a few of them contained parts such as screws, steel plates, ingots, bearings, brackets, cables, and even the tentacles of the octopus.

Zhou Ziheng entered the warehouse and shook his head while looking at the parts on the shelves, "Although these things are somewhat useful, they are not worth much, they are really not worth it, put them in the storage space." The gains outweigh the losses. ”

After walking around, Zhou Ziheng saw two piles of metal ingots in the corner. These ingots, more than half a meter long and wide, and twenty centimeters thick, were silvery-white, the same as the metal on the outer wall of the first layer, a gray-green that looked like a rock.

Zhou Ziheng took a piece of storage space from each of the two piles of metal ingots, and said, "I have been planning to dig some samples from the wall and go back to study." It just so happens that this is ready-made. ”

Out of the raw material warehouse and continue to move forward. After a while, about two meters in front of them, Shen Shuming, who was the vanguard, had just turned a corner, and suddenly retreated back like lightning.

Wang Xiaotian was curious, and Shen Shuming said, "There are monsters again." ”

"What kind of monster? is it still an octopus monster?" Zhou Ziheng asked.

"No, this time, it's a humanoid robot. ”

Before Shen Shuming's words fell, Wang Xiaotian heard a sound of "praise and praise", the frequency was very fast, and the speed was very urgent.

Zhou Ziheng hurriedly said: "Quick! ”

Wang Xiaotian immediately picked up Cao Lianyou and rushed to the factory. The corridor was unobstructed and unobstructed, and there was not even a place to hide. There are a large number of machine tools and equipment in the factory, which forms a shelter, which is somewhat convenient.

Wang Xiaotian hugged Cao Lianyou and ran behind a huge milling machine like a whirlwind. They crouched under the workbench and looked at the entrance.

Wang Xiaotian had a hunch in his heart that the monster that appeared this time was very likely to be a long-range attack type. It's like, the first thing they came across, the calf-sized, tracked robot.

There was a loud bang. The whole world shook. Cao Lian was frightened and went straight to Wang Xiaotian's body.

Wang Xiaotian gently patted Cao Lianyou's little head and comforted her softly not to be afraid.

Hearing this explosion, Wang Xiaotian remembered that Zhou Ziheng threw the Force Bomb into the bushes, and it seemed that this time it was also Zhou Ziheng's handiwork.

Soon, Wang Xiaotian heard the sound of "Xiu Xiu", it should be a machine monster, and he began to attack them.

After a clanging sound, only Shen Shuming shouted "Damn!" and then the three of them rushed into the factory like lightning.

"What's going on?" Wang Xiaotian shouted from afar.

"That's a lot. Shen Shuming shouted: "More than a dozen were blown up, and fifty or sixty came!"

The three of them scattered to find cover.

The next moment, a group of monsters appeared in Wang Xiaotian's sight.
