Chapter 15: A Year Later
Time passed quietly, so quiet that it would not alarm anyone, and more than ten months passed in a blink of an eye.
In the Yixin Dojo, a group of junior disciples sat in two rows, with their hands on their knees, and looked at the two figures who were fighting fiercely in the field.
Needless to say, the duels that are now going on are naturally Zoro and Guina.
Ian also sat on the side at this time, watching the two fight.
Calculating the time, it has been a year since Zoro came to this heart dojo, compared to when he first came to the dojo, the original bear child who could only make brute force like a wild boar was gone, and was replaced by a second-class swordsman who was already very powerful.
No one in the dojo made a sound, only the crackling sound caused by the exchange of bamboo swords between the two was heard, Zoro and Guina had been fighting for more than a hundred rounds, and both of them used their best strength to fight.
Taking Zoro to exercise every day, Ian is aware of Zoro's changes, from being solved by Guina two or three times at the beginning, to now fighting for so long without a winner, which makes Ian secretly nod for Zoro.
However, it is a pity that although Zoro has become stronger, Guina has become stronger than Zoro, and just when everyone thought that the two were afraid that they would have to fight for a while, Guina suddenly lowered her head and stabbed towards Zoro with a bamboo sword in both hands!
As soon as Zoro saw Guina's movements, he hurriedly swung his sword to block, but unexpectedly, Guina's straight stab was a feint at all, and after attracting Zoro to change his move to reveal the gap, Guina directly made a big upper sword style and hit Zoro in the face fiercely!
Another red mark appeared on Zoro's face, Guina's move was really powerful, Zoro had been slapped in the face by her more than once......
"1 point! Call it a day! Guina wins! Teacher Zuo Jie shouted: "2000 wins and 0 defeats!" ”
Seeing the winner and loser, Ian couldn't help but sigh, this year, Zoro this guy has frequently challenged Guina, after every exercise, he feels that if he makes a little progress, he will definitely come to such a time, two thousand times a year, an average of five or six times a day, I really don't know where he got such a lot of tenacity.
So many challenges, if you want to say how many times you win, you can forget it, but you haven't won once, Ian now understands Zoro's thoughts a little, it's a shame to lose in the hands of a girl, not to mention losing so many times, this is also Zoro's stupidity, if it were someone else, I'm afraid it would have been hit to the ground.
"Yes...... Damn it! Sauron staggered to his feet.
Guina pointed at Zoro with a bamboo sword and said playfully, "You are really weak, Zoro, how can you be so useless?" It's a boy......"
The junior disciples in the dojo whispered for a while, and said, "Zoro is not weak, okay!" Except for Senior Brother Ian, he is the strongest among the boys, and even the adults have won the battle......"
Maybe it was a little louder, but Gu Yina heard this, turned her head to look at them and said, "But he is still weaker than me, even if he uses two swords, the weak guy is weak!" ”
After saying that, Guina left everyone behind and walked out of the dojo.
When Ian saw this scene, he couldn't help but smile slightly, Guina is still so strong, every time she defeats Zoro, she has to stimulate him so much......
Zoro didn't know what he was thinking, and after standing up in silence, he patted the dust off his body.
Master Koshiro walked up to him and said, "Lost again, Zoro, obviously you have really become stronger......"
Before Zoro could speak, Master Koshiro was surrounded by a group of junior disciples and shouted, "Master! Shouldn't you be secretly training her just because she's your daughter? "That's right, it's too bad!"
Master Koshiro hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, I won't do that kind of thing, Zoro has indeed become stronger, but Guina has also become stronger and stronger." ”
At this time, Zoro walked towards the door without saying a word, with a red mark on his face.
Everyone was looking at him from behind, and Master Koshiro called him, but he didn't expect him to calmly drop a sentence: "I'll wash my face!" And then he walked straight out.
Koshiro sighed and said to Ian, "You go and see him!" ”
Ian nodded, and walked out as well, only to see Zoro holding water and pouring it desperately on his head.
"Damn, why can't I win against Guina!" Sauron said something to himself, and then suddenly roared, "Why!?" Why!? I'm going to be the strongest man in the world, why is this happening!? ”
Ian saw that he was emotional, so he didn't step forward, but just hid behind a tree and watched him.
After Zoro vented for a while, he finally calmed down, wiped the water stains on his face, and said secretly: "Tonight, I want to duel with her again......"
………………
After dinner that day, Master Koshiro and his younger brother Sasuke sat in their room drinking tea, and during the conversation, they inevitably mentioned the duel between Zoro and Guina during the day.
"It's only been a year since I started, and Sauron's growth is truly jaw-dropping!" Zuo Jie said: "The amount of practice he and Ian is incomparable to others, and it is true to say that this is a matter of course, but it still can't win against Guina......
After hearing this, Koshiro thought for a while before he spoke, "The female swordsman has a huge obstacle...... As it stands, I can't let him inherit the dojo yet......"
In the past, even if Master Koshiro had some regrets, he didn't say it as bluntly as he did today, perhaps because there were only two people in the room now, he and Zuo Jie, he finally said his heart, but what he didn't expect was that this sentence happened to be heard by Gu Yina, who came to look for him, outside the door.
"Father!" Guina slammed the door open.
"It's not good to eavesdrop, Guina!" Master Koshiro looked at Gu Yina with a somewhat serious expression.
Guina held back her excitement and said to Koshiro, "Father, I will definitely become the strongest swordsman in the world!" ”
Similar to Koshiro, it was the first time that Guina had officially expressed her ideals in front of his father, hoping to be truly approved by his father.
However, what he didn't expect was that after being silent for a while, Master Koshiro said in a low voice, "Gu Yina...... Girls can't be the strongest ......"
Guina looked at her father in a daze, she really didn't expect that her father was still so stubborn, and his efforts had never been recognized by him!
Without saying a word, Guina turned away, and it wasn't until the figure was submerged in the darkness that her tears began to flow......
"This ...... That's too hurtful, isn't it? Sasuke looked at Koshiro in disbelief: "Why are you so ruthless to Koina?" ”
Koshiro sighed, raised the teacup in front of him and took a sip, "Do you think so too?" Ian! ”
Ian turned out from behind the tree, he had been watching the whole process just now, and was discovered by Koshiro, he was not surprised, after coming to the door, Ian sat down and asked Koshiro with some puzzlement: "Master, why do you insist so much that girls can't be the strongest?" ”
The expression on Koshiro's face, which had been smiling, was gone, but a sad look on his face, and he spoke, "Do you know that Guina not only looks like her mother, but even this strong character is exactly the same as her mother...... I know her ideals, she wants to be the strongest swordsman in the world, but how to become the strongest? In addition to the physiological reasons, she also has to keep challenging stronger talents! If something happens, then I'm ......."
"I've already lost her mother, and I don't want to lose her daughter anymore......" Koshiro looked up at the ceiling: "I don't want her to be the strongest in the world, I just want her to grow up safely......"
Ian looked at the tears faintly shining in the corners of Koshiro's eyes, the impact of these words on Ian was actually huge, because he finally found out that Master Koshiro was not as he imagined, a person who eats the old, using girls as an excuse that they can't be the strongest, in the final analysis, in fact, he just doesn't want to let Gu Ina leave his side.
This is the deepest love of a father for his daughter, and no one dares to say that Koshiro has done wrong......
In this case, Ian didn't know what to say, so he had to stand up and say, "Master, I'll go see Gu Yina......"
Koshiro didn't speak, but acquiesced to Ian's actions, and Ian closed the door of the room for the two of them and walked out.
He wanted to go out to look for Guina, but unexpectedly, he watched Guina run towards the location of the warehouse from a distance, and out of curiosity, Ian quietly followed.
A moment later, Ian saw Guina come out of the warehouse with a sword in her hand!
That's a real guy! Ian has been in the dojo for so long, so he naturally knows what Gu Yina is holding, it is the famous sword [and Dao Yi Text]!
This knife is white all over, the scabbard is white, and the handle is also white, although it is placed in the warehouse, it is said to be a relic left to her by Guina's mother, and this is a knife that belongs to Guina!
After such a big night, Guina actually went out with this knife, and Ian couldn't help but sigh.
He knew what was going to happen next, he just felt a little sudden, he thought that his appearance might affect the development of the original thing, but he didn't expect that what should have happened would still happen......
Zoro and Guina still have their 2001st duel......
Let's go and have a look, it can be regarded as the moment when the two of them made their vows.
