Wooden knives clashed, and there was a muffled sound.

Belle stepped back, her body moved back a small step, and then turned diagonally, the wooden knife in her hand was withdrawn to defend herself, Belle's eyes were firmly fixed on the opponent, but her eyes could catch the opponent, but her body movements could not keep up, and the girl in black missed from her, as fast as a shadow.

The next moment, Belle's body froze, and the movement in her hand froze, and the wooden knife was not fully defended—the opponent's wooden knife was already stuck in the side of her neck.

"You're still that fast."

Belle sighed, her tense body relaxed, and the tip of the knife in her hand drooped.

She's lost again, and if it's a real fight, she's dead by now. Belle practiced her swordsmanship for a long time, but she still couldn't make three moves under Lemon's hand, and sometimes she was even killed in seconds.

Lemon withdrew the wooden knife and took a step back.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa——! Sister-in-law is mighty! Sister-in-law is mighty! Mighty - Martial ——! ”

The big men of the executive department gathered at the gate of the training ground shouted in unison, shouting and pausing rhythmically with their footsteps, they like to crowd here to watch Belle and Lemon practice swords, this is not because the martial arts in the safety zone are strong, they want to learn any tricks, but because the two girls are in good shape, their limbs are slender and concave, they practice swords with a kind of ballet-like beauty, and the outstretched arms and long legs when jumping up are very eye-catching.

However, the members of the executive department dare not have any wrong thoughts about these two, the people of the hummingbird hunting team can not be approached from a distance, not to mention that now in the eyes of the executive department, lemon is already a figure like a sister-in-law, a woman who is the boss of the big brother Lu Xun, in the muscular brain of the executive department, the woman who can be worthy of the minister of the land patrol must be the strongest, and those who dare to covet the sister-in-law must be stabbed and killed on the street.

When it's okay, the big men are crowded here to watch the beautiful girl practice swords, anyway, the safe zone is very peaceful, and they are idle.

Lemon didn't bother to chase them away, she never cared about the eyes of the people around her.

"Sister-in-law is mighty! Sister-in-law will win! ”

"Shut up!" Belle angrily threw the wooden knife in her hand at the door, and grimaced at them, "Don't crowd here! What to do, what to do, hurry up, get out of here! ”

The executive shrugged, and some of them grimaced at Belle before gradually dispersing.

Belle and Lemon sit down to rest.

"Aren't you angry that they're so?" Belle asked, "How can anyone call a sister-in-law directly?" Three nos are three nos, not a sister-in-law. ”

Lemon shook her head.

"It doesn't matter."

"Your knife skills have improved again." Belle glanced at the wooden knife in Lemon's hand, "Sanwu, you're such a pervert, what is your limit?" ”

She has been practicing the knife technique with Lemon for so long, and she originally wanted to improve her strength, but she only found out after beating Belle...... His strength has not grown much, but Lemon's knife skills are becoming more and more unfathomable.

Today's lemons are no longer confined to moves and genres, and the technique has become extremely simple and clean, and every knife is extremely deadly, never dragging mud and water. This change had only happened since the Night King's return, and she had become serene and transparent, but faster and faster.

Lemon turned the wooden knife upside down and tapped it lightly on Belle's head with the hilt.

"It hurts." Belle covered her head.

"It's not that I'm getting stronger." Lemon said, "It's that you're getting worse and worse...... You wander a lot. ”

"Oh." Belle lowered her head a little aggrieved.

"Why do you want to practice swords?" Lemon asked.

It's not the first time she's asked this question, the first time Belle came to her, Lemon asked her this question, Belle is a sniper, and she doesn't need to engage in hand-to-hand cold weapon combat with the enemy, not to mention that Belle doesn't have the ability to kill hunters with a knife. Lemon is the only one in the entire academy who needs to practice her sword, as she is the only one who has the strength to engage in close-quarters combat with hunters.

But Belle didn't answer at that time, she just stubbornly picked up the wooden knife.

Practicing knives is not an easy task, and it is even more difficult to practice knives with Lemon, who has never been a good coach, Lemon herself has never learned knife techniques from anyone, and her moves are all figured out by herself, so she doesn't know how to teach others. Lemon's knife is fast and murderous, and he is ruthless, and the stakes that are usually used as targets are cut to pieces, and Belle has often been beaten all over the body in the past two months, and his arms and shoulders are bruised, which is still the result of Lemon's strength.

Belle didn't have to suffer this.

"Sanwu, I heard them say that practicing swords can make people's hearts become single-minded and transparent, and make people very peaceful." Belle said, "Is that so?" ”

Lemon was slightly stunned.

"If you want to become single-minded and peaceful, you can meditate and participate in meditation." Lemon said, "There's no need to practice knives. ”

"I've tried, but it didn't work." Belle shook her head, "I also learned the ancients to chant scriptures and sit in meditation to face the wall, but as soon as I close my eyes, I ......"

"What's wrong with closing your eyes?"

Belle suddenly stopped talking, she changed her words, "I have tried all the other methods, but none of them worked, so I came to practice with you, every time I practice until I am exhausted and then go back, I can fall asleep in bed, and there will be no cranky thoughts." ”

Lemon tilted her head to look at her, her gaze determined and indifferent, with doubt.

Belle avoided her gaze, her eyes wandering.

"You've been a little weird lately." Lemon said lightly.

"Strange?" Belle touched her face, "What's wrong with me?" I don't blame you anymore, you don't blame you, you are a freak recognized by everyone, okay? ”

"Even I can see that you're in a bad state of mind, Belle you should go and look in the mirror, your face is very pale and your eyes are blank." Lemon replied, "You're pushing yourself and pulling yourself together, but it doesn't work very well...... You're often distracted and unresponsive when you're practicing with me, and I think others can see that. ”

Belle was stunned for a moment, and her expression slowly withered.

"Is it really that obvious?"

Lemon nodded.

Belle sighed, "It's just insomnia, my sleep quality has been very poor during this time, I often wake up in the middle of the night, and then I can't sleep again...... With my eyes open until dawn, of course my mental state is poor. ”

"What's going on? Makes you have so much mental stress? Lemon asked.

Belle looked down at the floor and was silent for a moment.

"Nightmare."

Lemon was stunned, "Nightmare? ”

Belle nodded, looked up, and whispered, "Very terrible nightmare." ”
