Gao Rui woke up from his sleep, opened his eyes in a daze, and rubbed his eyes. only to find that the scene in front of him seemed familiar. Tao'er sat opposite, dragging her chin and looking at Gao Rui, quietly waiting for him to wake up.

"How long have I been sleeping, it's getting dark. Oops, I said I was going to urge you to practice, but I fell asleep myself. Tao'er, what do you think, did I disturb your practice? Gao Rui was a little apologetic.

Tao'er smiled and stretched out her little hand and shook Gao Rui's hand. Gao Rui felt that there was a true qi secretly surging between his palms, and then he was overjoyed to see Tao'er's ruddy complexion, as if the meridians were much smoother.

"Peach, it seems that what I said is really right, just one day, it has already worked!" Gao Rui was overjoyed and emotional. took Peach's hand, took Peach's arms, and hugged Peach's thin waist tightly. Tao'er was startled, the incident happened suddenly, and she was defenseless. Instinctively pushed his hands away, his eyes stared at Gao Rui, and Gao Rui's eyes were full of affection. Tao'er stopped resisting, and wrapped her hands around Gao Rui's waist. The two of them hugged each other, staring at each other, as if time stood still.

It took a long time for Peach to remember the meal that had been prepared outside. pushed Gao Rui away, took Gao Rui's hand and ran to the front hall. Gao Rui saw a table of sumptuous meals, and his heart warmed. His appetite increased greatly, and he devoured it. During the meal, I didn't forget to put a bowl of chicken soup for Tao'er and handed it to Tao'er.

"Tao'er, you must be tired after a day of practice, drink this soup to replenish it, and rest early in the evening. I see that your body and steps are much lighter today, and even your complexion is much better than before. It's like a rebirth, like a phoenix being reborn. If you continue to practice like this every day, I am sure that it will not be long before your martial arts will be perfected. Seeing that Tao'er is no longer the weak woman who is bullied, she can finally protect herself. I sighed very much, God has the virtue of a good life, and gave me such a good girl. "After staying with Tao'er for a long time, Gao Rui has also let go a lot. confided his sincerity with Tao'er, and he was no longer the young scholar he was at the beginning.

Tao'er took the words to heart, and thought: "Thanks to Childe, I can comprehend the essence of this internal strength." If I hadn't met Childe in this life, I'm afraid I would have gone down to the underworld a long time ago and would have been accompanied by that lonely ghost. I owe Gao Rui too much, and I can't repay it in this life, I just want to be able to stay by his side and use up the rest of my life. Childe, do you know that the person I want to protect most in this life is you. ”

Tao'er blushed slightly and smiled.

A few days later, in the courtyard, Gao Rui was practicing sword moves with Tao'er.

"These two ritual swordsmanship pay attention to lightness and softness, continuous, heavy and not gravity, beautiful and chic. Cooperate with the heart method, gather the qi of yin and yang, and exert its force. No matter how heavy the sword is, it can also shrink freely from near and far. Gao Rui solemnly explained.

Tao'er comprehended, so she pulled out the Meridian Seven Star Sword, and practiced this move with the picture in the book. The tip of the sword is unsheathed, and the edge flashes. The sword qi rippled, and the sword edge was clear. Peach's body is light and her steps are light. The long sword danced, not feeling bulky, but agile and ethereal.

When Gao Rui saw the scene in front of him, he was a little obsessed, and clapped his hands, "I didn't expect Tao'er to dance with a sword, but she didn't have the masculine domineering spirit of a chivalrous man, but she was like a fairy descending to earth that day, intoxicating the heart of a king." ”

Intoxicated, he found that Xu Hui was in a hurry.

"Young master, there's news." Xu Hui didn't even breathe, so he ran to the front hall to pick up the teapot and gurgled a whole pot.

"Don't rush, take your time." Gao Rui and the three of them sat down in the front hall and listened to Xu Hui speak slowly.
