A few days later, the white-robed Fried left with Ye Yunfeng. Before leaving, Ye Yunfeng gave Lin Luo all the two packs of cigarettes and a lighter in his bag.

Lin Luo laughed: "You are a champion who actually brought so many cigarettes. ”

Ye Yunfeng smiled embarrassedly: "I was going to go to an all-night session with my classmates, hey......"

"Thank you then!"

"Brother, I want to thank you! I don't have anything I can come up with, only cigarettes. Ye Yunfeng smiled, as if he was looking forward to his future life, "I'm leaving, brother!" Come to me if you have the chance! ”

"Good!" Lin Luo waved goodbye.

After Ye Yunfeng left, Captain Ande gave Lin Luo a piece of paper, on which was written something like 'Adventurer Solicitation Order'.

Just listen to Captain Ender explain: "Because you are not a citizen of the principality, you cannot join our border guards in the usual way. This is the Adventurer's Solicitation Order, after you fill it out, I will hand it in, and you can be certified as an adventurer. Staying here as an adventurer is the same as our treatment. ”

Lin Luo smiled, a little grateful to the big man in front of him. Captain Ander added: "You have another advantage in doing this, that is, you can leave if you want." Of course, we won't rush you. ”

Lin Luo signed the solicitation order and handed it to Captain Ande. Half a day later, Captain Ander gave Lin Luo a small bronze sign and advised: "This is your adventurer's proof, you have to put it away yourself." ”

"Okay, thank you." Lin Luo thanked him, held the small copper sign in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

"Okay, you'll start training with us tomorrow."

Since then, Lin Luo has been training with the border guards day after day. He would also wander around the village in his spare time, and the people in the village were basically finished.

Lin Luo seemed to have fantasies about the girl in Celia, but although this girl talked to people with a smile on her face, she had a heart that rejected people thousands of miles away. Blacksmith Linus once taunted Lin Luo: "Boy, you can't catch her. ”

"Why?" Lin Luo was puzzled.

"She's waiting for someone." Linus tapped his wooden pole to smoke, put some tobacco in it, lit it and continued smoking.

"Who?" Lin Luo wanted to ask clearly.

Linus stared at his little stove and didn't speak.

Daily training, daily sword practice, so that the youth who grew up in this city have a sense of natural health. Although Lin Luo does not have the affinity of magic and cannot absorb magic power, in the past six months, he has also practiced a good physique.

Lin Luo still didn't listen to Linnas's words, and went to help Celia carry things if he had something to do. When Celia goes to the forest to pick fruit, she will also go with her.

At first, Celia didn't notice Lin Luo's purpose, but as the days went by, Lin Luo's mind was discovered by Celia.

One day, when Celia went to the forest to pick fruit, she called the forest out.

Some of the soldiers saw it and joked: "Yo, yo, yo, boy, is our Elwin's first beauty in love with you?" Why do you call you together every time you pick fruit? ”

Lin Luo smiled embarrassedly, pulled his legs and ran away, causing the soldiers behind him to laugh.

The sun shines through the leaves and shines on the grass in the forest, and Celia walks in the forest, countless butterflies fluttering around her, and frolicking birds chirping happily around her. She is like a fairy in the forest, a fairy in the flowers.

Lin Luo was fascinated by it, and his heart was beating nonstop. But when I saw Celia holding the basket, she suddenly turned around and asked with a smile, "What are you looking at?" ”

"Uh...... It's nothing...... It's nothing. Lin Luo's face turned red.

Celia put the basket on the ground and sat down; She looked at the flying butterflies, pursed her lips, and was silent for a long time, but finally said: "I know your intentions, but ......" The girl paused, sighed, and still said: "I, hey...... But I'm waiting for someone, waiting for that person to come to me. She expressed it very tactfully, hoping that Lin Luo could understand what she meant.

Black beetles crawled up and down the trunks of the trees, and small spiders with patterns weaved webs beside the forest. Lin Luo was very disappointed, and ridiculed himself: Are you too inflated yourself, are you confused when you read novels, do you take it for granted that as soon as you stand on your own, countless beauties will post them?

Lin Luo looked at the girl's beautiful face, and raised his head to look at the green leaves dyed with gold edges. Rustling, rustling, black beetles gnawing on the bark; Fluttering, fluttering, a flock of red-billed and green-feathered birds flew from the trunk. The forest was so quiet that you could only hear the sounds of animals and the wind blowing the leaves.

Lin Luo closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suddenly figured out - why do others have to like him? Why do you take it for granted that you have the spirit of a king? Oh, it looks like you've been blown away by the flood of information, right? It's the real world, and everyone has their own thoughts; It's a world of magic, and if you don't pay attention, it's gone.

Lin Luo lowered his head and smiled calmly: "Well, I know, I will treat you as a friend like Captain Ender." ”

Celia grinned, revealing her white teeth. She didn't say much, just nodded.

Lin Luo felt a little embarrassed, so he asked casually, "Who is the person you are waiting for?" ”

Celia pursed her lips and thought about it, and said, "I don't know who he is, I just remember his face." It's been a long time, it seems like a long time, I just vaguely remember his face......"

Lin Luo's fantasy ended in this forest, but it made him see his own heart - there are some things that there is no need to force.

It's still a daily training.,But there's one less person wandering around the girl.。 After another half a year, Lin Luo had learned all the sword skills in the army taught by Captain Ande, and the whole person had undergone earth-shaking changes, becoming more resolute and pure.

Lin Luo knew that the blacksmith Linus used to be a swordsman, and he also wanted to improve his swordsmanship, so he went to Linus to hang around in his spare time, wanting Linus to teach him a trick and a half.

One day Linus got tired of seeing it, and said, "Don't have anything to do, it's okay to always dangle in front of me." ”

Lin Luo scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly.

Linus may have seen what Lin Luo was thinking, so he said, "When you're fine, you can come and help me strike iron." ”

"Done!" Lin Luo readily agreed.

Lin Luo has one more job to strike iron every day. At the beginning, the iron was not smooth, and Lin Luo ran out of strength after a few blows with a sledgehammer. Linus, the blacksmith, taught: "Squat with your legs slightly, inhale as you lift the hammer, and exhale as you drop the hammer." ”

This method seemed to be very good, and within a few days Lin Luo pulled the sledgehammer out of the whirring wind.

Once Lin Luo asked Linnas for advice: "Why is this breathing method so practical, I feel that my strength has strengthened a lot." ”

Linus smoked the cigarette given by Lin Luo and said with a smile: "It's not that your strength has increased, it's that you can use your strength more flexibly." ”

Lin Luo was puzzled, and humbly asked for advice again. Just listen to Linus explain: "Because the human body has a protective mechanism, it is difficult for people who have not undergone special training to exert their full strength. The breathing method of striking iron is to be able to burst out with the strength you want in an instant, as big as you want, and as small as you want. ”

Lin Luo thought for a moment and asked, "Then is this hammer the same as a sword?" ”

"As far as the sword moves of this chop are concerned, it's the same." Linus spat out the smoke ring, a look of satisfaction.

Today's work is done, and Lin Luo is sweating profusely. Before going back to rest, Linus threw an axe to Lin Luo and said, "You will start cutting trees tomorrow, and you will go to the forest to cut them, and you will have to be big." ”

Lin Luo picked up the axe on the ground, thanked Linus and went back to the barracks to rest.

Elwin's border guards were actually very idle, and most of the time they had nothing to do except for training every morning. So except for the people standing guard, most people either sit around and drink, or go hunting in the forest.

After the training was over, he went to the forest to cut down trees with an axe. The job of cutting down trees may really require some skill, and Lin Luo is already panting and sweating profusely before he has been cutting it for long.

With a click, the lighter lit a cigarette. The woods, who had fallen to the ground, heard the sound, and turned their heads to see Linus leaning against the trunk of the tree. Lin Luo straightened up, allowing himself to sit more comfortably; He looked at the blacksmith smoking and asked, "Uncle, how long have you been here?" ”

"It's always there, but you didn't notice it." Linus threw a kettle to Linluo.

Lin Luo took the kettle and drank it with a grunt. But he heard Linus instruct: "You cut down the tree in the wrong way." ”

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

"Nothing is right! Cutting down trees is not the same as striking iron with a hammer, striking iron with a hammer, squatting slightly with both legs, inhaling when lifting the hammer, and exhaling when the hammer falls. But cutting a tree is different, the steps should be in the direction of the tree you are cutting, standing one after the other; When lifting an axe to cut a tree, maintain direction and balance with the front foot, push the ground hard with the back foot, twist the waist and turn the hips, exhale and lift the axe to cut the tree; When retracting the axe, kick the front foot slightly, turn the back foot slightly, turn the waist sideways, and inhale to collect the axe. ”

Lin Luo raised his axe and gestured, and Linus corrected a few more mistakes. Lin Luo used this method to cut down trees, and suddenly felt a lot easier, and his strength increased a few points.

Lin Luo's face was full of joy, put down the axe and asked, "Uncle, is there any name for this method?" ”

"Yes!" Linus grinned, "This is the breathing method that an old friend used to call me, and the name seems to be 'Liuxin' or something. I couldn't absorb magic either, so my old friend taught me this method, but I only learned a little bit about it, because the subsequent breathing method had to be used in conjunction with magic. ”

Lin Luo sounded a little lost, but also a little lucky. Linus looked at Lin Luo's somewhat gloomy expression and said with a smile: "However, according to this set of breathing methods, I have improved some of my own methods and changed them to methods that can adapt to those of us who have no magical powers. ”

Lin Luo listened, squatted on the ground and humbly asked for advice. Linus also did not hide privately, but taught slowly.

"Striking iron with a hammer and chopping down trees is a trick, but when facing an enemy, you need to pay attention to your own reaction and the speed of your sword. When moving quickly in small steps, breathe through your nose, and breathe short and fast; When running in a wide area, breathe in through your nose and exhale through your mouth, and breathe long and soft. ”

The blacksmith man also squatted down and continued: "Inhale as you charge, and exhale as you exert force." Hand-to-hand fighting, just between this breath and breath. So when fighting, you have to breathe fast, sniff in your nose, spit out in your mouth, be fast, and let your blood flow quickly, so that you can burst out with strength. In the intervals between fights, breathe longer, sniff in and out of your nose, and relax your body for the next attack. ”

After saying that, Linus demonstrated it to Lin Luo. Lin Luo humbly asked for advice, and after mastering the method, he practiced with Linus in this forest for an afternoon, and the two returned to the village in the evening.

Before parting, Linus said: "I don't have anything else to teach you, you practice every day, you have to get your body used to this breath, to the point where practice makes perfect, so that you can use it naturally in battle." If you have the heart, you can still come and help me strike iron. ”

"Anyway, thank you very much." Lin Luo bent down and bowed.

Linus waved his hand and staggered away.

After the sunset, the forest and the village were gilded with a fiery red halo. The sun was setting in the west, stretching the shadows of the two men very long.
