Chapter 32: Waiting
In the second level of the wilderness, deep in the forest, in front of the rumbling waterfall, there was a small house, and there was a young man in white who was slowly wielding his sword skills in the open space in front of the house.
He couldn't remember how long he had been here.
It seems that he had been walking east for a long time after saying goodbye to his few friends, and then deciding to settle here after seeing this huge waterfall.
Practice swords, practice swords.
Practicing swords day after day, going out hungry to fight monsters and hunting for ingredients, no Jian Yuan went out to sweep around and came back, although with the improvement of swordsmanship, the demand for Jian Yuan is getting higher and higher.
Except for sword training, there is no other adjustment in his life.
The boring and simple life made him enjoy it very much, and for a long time, his heart was not so thorough.
How long has it been?
Forgot.
It doesn't matter, it's enough for him to have a sword in his hand.
At the beginning, his swordsmanship was very fast, killing thirteen swords, and in just a few seconds, he was able to cast the first sword to the thirteenth sword.
Suddenly, from one day onwards, his swordsmanship began to slow down.
Slower and heavier, heavier and heavier.
Now his swordsmanship, just swinging a sword, it takes a few minutes, the first sword to the thirteenth sword, it took a full hour to wield, an hour, enough for others to send hundreds of thousands of swords to stab him into countless holes, but the boy still kept dancing slowly, as if his sword was sinking into the quagmire.
No beast dared to approach this place, and although the beasts of the forest were all refreshed AI, a fear had been engraved into that data and could not be erased.
So the place is still quiet, and there is nothing but the sound of the waterfall.
Something sharper than the sword power circulated in the boy's body, and the answer given by the system called it, sword qi.
Sword Qi.
The term once made the boy in a trance, and then he was convinced again that he was living in this world, and that he was pursuing what he had never been able to pursue.
There is no breakthrough in the cultivation realm, the Ming Sword Realm is still the Ming Sword Realm, and the young man does not know how to break through this realm.
He just ran the sword cultivation technique over and over again, took out the sword vein chapter every day to understand the three words on it, and then followed the figure in his mind to practice the sword.
He loves this life.
Deep in the forest, no one disturbed his life.
Except for the regret that Jian Yuan is becoming more and more insufficient, the rest is very beautiful.
Cycle after cycle, tempering again and again, the strength in the young man's body became more and more condensed, but his appearance still maintained that thinness.
Sword intent.
The boy didn't choose a name for his sword intent, what is the only sword intent, the only sword intent, the self-forgetting sword intent.
Because he felt that his sword intent had not yet reached this level, the young man liked the feeling when he cast his sword intent, it was an indescribable concentration, as if he had staked everything on his long sword, this sword intent was so cold, but it was incomparably compatible.
So when he practiced the sword, he often attached his far immature sword intent to the long sword and tempered it, although after each use, due to the rapid loss of mental power, it would always cause a severe headache, but the young man still enjoyed it.
Time passed little by little, until one day, a chime sounded in the boy's ears.
【Mission Update-Branches】
[On the twenty-fifth floor, find the whereabouts of the magic sword Kirkod]
【Reward Unknown】
The boy just let the sound echo in his ears, and he quietly swung his long sword, finished the rest of his sword moves, and slowly sheathed it.
Exhale a long breath gently.
With a muffled sound, the long grass at the young man's feet suddenly broke in two, and the young man raised his head, and his indifferent eyes circled this place, which he had spent an unknown amount of time, and even knew the location of each stone well.
I went to the wooden house to pack up my things, went out, turned around, and took a deep look at this place where I had lived the longest since I came to this world.
Then leave.
After the teleportation was completed, and the next direction was discerned, Ye Ran walked towards Karin's grocery store.
The originally lively second floor has disappeared from the player, and there are only one NPC NPCs who keep walking back and forth, living in this world. There should have been a lot of layers, Ye Ran judged.
When I walked to the door of the grocery store, I was still so small that it seemed to shatter at the slightest touch, sleeping alone on the table.
I haven't seen him for a long time, but Ye Ran doesn't feel any strangeness.
Walking to the counter, Ye Ran just looked at the girl quietly, until the girl's body trembled, and then said with a smile: "Still pretending to be asleep?" ”
"Hmph~" The girl stretched her waist and made a greasy sound, not caring at all that her slender waist was exposed in front of Ye Ran, she just said with a slight smile.
"Welcome back."
didn't receive the spike he imagined, Ye Ran was stunned for a moment, and then replied softly: "Ah, I'm back." Then he was stunned, and a warm current flowed in Ye Ran's heart, and it lasted for a long time, this feeling always felt so nostalgic.
Ye Ran walked into the store, stood by the counter, looked at the sky, and asked, "How long have I been away?" ”
"About five months."
Karin just supported her chin with her right hand, looked at Ye Ran blankly, and replied blankly.
Looking at Karin's appearance, Ye Ran was a little funny and a little moved.
He understood a long time ago that this store existed solely for him. And with Karin's temperament and character, it is simply impossible for her to take the initiative to go out, which means that Karin is alone in this store, waiting for him to return without knowing when, and has been waiting.
"What a fool..."
Ye Ran's nose was sour, he stretched out his hand and rubbed Karin's hair, and said with a smile in her dissatisfied and puzzled eyes, "I'll go make you dinner." ”
"Dinner!"
Karin was in good spirits, and she didn't mind Ye Ran rubbing her hair in a mess, she just followed behind Ye Ran with saliva and walked into the kitchen, waiting anxiously.
Tian Zhi said that in the past few months, she has been eating takeout all day and is about to become insane, and after tasting Ye Ran's food, other dishes are just used to fill her stomach.
Soon, when night fell, Ye Ran also brought the food to the table in the backyard.
Seeing Karin keep picking up vegetables, Ye Ran just took two bites of rice, then stopped the chopsticks and looked at her quietly.
Then she saw that Karin's eating movements were getting slower and slower, and her originally white face was gradually dyed red, she finally couldn't help but put the bowl on the table, and glared back at Ye Ran a little annoyed: "Why do you keep looking at me, and don't let people eat!" ”
"I'm sorry."
Ye Ran's eyes crossed Karin, turned to the sky composed of mountain walls, and his frank voice came into Karin's ears with some fluctuation, and said, "I've been waiting here alone." ”
Karin's palms clenched suddenly, her eyes and face drooped, her closed lips trembled, and she bit her lower lip in silence.
"I, I'm full."
Pushing the bowl, Karin quickly left the place and walked to the second floor, Ye Ran, who had his back to Karin, did not see the crystal in Karin's eyes, but it did not hinder his understanding of Karin's action.
"Sure enough, it's a fool."
The murmur echoed in the backyard, and Ye Ran got up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.
