Chapter 28: Night Talk
A cold light flashed in Huzun's eyes, and he slowly walked out of the cave, and his figure slowly disappeared into the dense forest.
......
About three hours passed, it was almost dusk, Jiang Chi's injuries were almost healed, he exhaled a long breath of turbidity, and slowly opened his eyes.
Not far away, Ji Mengxue was sitting against a tree, resting quietly, as if she had realized something in a trance, she opened her eyes at the same time, and in an instant, the two of them met their eyes.
Jiang Chi nodded slightly in thanks, then looked away, his gaze focused on the sweaty girl, and frowned slightly.
As if stimulated by something, Su Wan practiced knives and worked much harder than usual.
Looking at the footprints on the ground, it should have been practiced for a long time, her steps were vain, and her strength was already exhausted, she still gritted her teeth and persisted, repeating the three knives over and over again.
Sighing slightly, Jiang Chi waved his sleeves and got up, walked in front of Su Wan, gathered the aura of heaven and earth in his palm, blocked her knife under his palm, and said, "Rest for a while." ”
Looking at Jiang Chi beside her in a daze, Su Wan's face was overjoyed, and she was stunned, a trace of guilt flashed in the depths of her eyes, and she whimpered: "I don't want to bother you anymore......"
While speaking, Su Wan recalled that when Jiang Chi was hiding in the dense forest, when Jiang Chi was bullied by the enemy, he had the intention to rush out, but his limbs were dominated by fear, his body trembled so much that he didn't dare to move, and he couldn't even hold the knife steadily.
As soon as she thought of this, she seemed to be in the scene again, and the guilt of cowardice and the sense of powerlessness in the face of the crisis came to her heart, and Su Wan's eyes were red and tears were in her eyes.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Chi sighed in his heart, but with an indifferent expression on his face, he said coldly: "Take back your tears!"
Where had she seen him like this, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak, she swallowed her tears, and her eyes were hazy.
Looking at her immature little face, tears were about to fall, Jiang Chi couldn't help but have a headache, and he didn't know what kind of face to treat her.
As if rooted in the depths of her soul, although she has a terrifying talent for fighting, her personality is too cowardly, and she is often dominated by fear and cowardice, and she does not dare to face it at all.
Treating her gently, as usual, may encourage her cowardice...... Moreover, from the way she looked at herself, Jiang Chi vaguely found some bad signs.
Does it really have to be as said in the class in the previous life, so that a strict teacher can produce a high apprentice?
Does it really take persecution to give her the power to protect herself?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, Jiang Chi's expression was cold, his disappointment was overflowing, and he said, "If it weren't for the old people's trust, I wouldn't want to take you with me." ”
Hearing this, Su Wan lowered her head and didn't dare to look at him anymore, and a stronger sense of guilt gradually came to her heart, and she couldn't hold back her tears - he said that he wanted to take the tears back.
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Jiang Chi's heart softened, and he immediately erased Fang Cai's thoughts, and comforted him softly: "Okay, I'll teach slowly, you learn slowly, be obedient first, and rest for a while, okay?"
Facing this girl, Jiang Chi had to put on a black face and scold him sharply, but he really couldn't do it.
Hearing the words of relief, Su Wan's tense heart suddenly relaxed, and the sky swirled for a while, and her eyes were dark, and she fainted.
Busy catching her, Jiang Chi sighed lightly and helped her to the side to rest.
At first, he was frightened in the dense forest, practiced swordsmanship hard because of guilt in his heart, and finally was reprimanded by people who valued him, and no one could hold their minds.
Fainting at this moment may be the limit of her spirit.
Jiang Chi is good at cultivation, but he doesn't understand human feelings, and he never thought that today's words would be like a seed, quietly buried in the girl's heart.
......
At night, the full moon gradually hangs, the cool breeze rises suddenly, and the night crows chirp.
Several people discussed, in the night, the deep mountain is more dangerous, uncomfortable and hurried, planning to repair in the same place for the night, and set off again tomorrow.
In the open space, a bonfire was burned, and every time there was smoke and dust, it was immediately dispersed by Jiang Chi.
Zi Yun, who returned from looking for food, was the body of a paper man after all, avoiding the open flames far away and taking care of the unconscious Su Wan on the side.
From time to time, he turned his gaze to the two people around the campfire.
In the sound of "crackling" firewood burning, Ji Mengxue suddenly asked, "Jiang Chi, aren't you going to explain?"
While adding firewood, the firelight was reflected on his face, and he couldn't see Jiang Chi's expression clearly, he chuckled and asked knowingly, "Explain what?"
Hearing the banter in his mouth, Ji Mengxue was anxious, her pretty face was like frost, and a silver spear suddenly appeared in her hand, across his throat, and asked threateningly: "For example, how do you know so well that my family has passed down the exercises?"
Waving his hand, signaling Zi Yun not to step forward, Jiang Chi coughed lightly, pushed away the spear in his throat, and said with a smile: "Your father is right, his daughter is really just a rude girl." ”
"Do you know where my father is?" The palace master has been away for four years, and there is no news, as a human daughter, Ji Mengxue asked eagerly.
Jiang Chi didn't answer positively, changed the topic, and asked, "Do you know what is the biggest difference between you and your father?"
"I just want to know, where is my father!!" Ji Mengxue's spear moved again, this time with a murderous aura, and the tip of the spear reached her throat.
As if he didn't realize it, Jiang Chi said to himself:
"The palace master's personality is as quiet as ice, but your personality is as impatient as fire. ”
"Some time ago, you gave me medicine inexplicably, which caused me a lot of trouble...... Your father and daughter have very different personalities, and it is indeed a miracle. ”
Hearing this, Ji Mengxue's eyes flashed slightly, put away the spear, and waited quietly for him to speak.
Jiang Chi nodded without a trace, and continued: "The palace master's emperor-level exercises, when they are completed, the silver spear is brilliant, clear as ice, and when a shot is swept out, it is a hundred steps of frost, cutting off vitality. ”
"That year, the palace master went deep into the thousands of snow-capped mountains in the northern region, encountered the siege of the barbarians, calmly responded to the enemy, and used a little trick to break through, dyed with blue blood, and beheaded three thousand barbarians. When I returned, I realized that this gun was a great success. ”
He once said that the cold and snow make the skin tremble, and the blue blood makes the heart calm. ”
Ji Mengxue seemed to have an understanding, and looked at Jiang Chi intently.
"The palace lord let me tell you, if the weapon does not follow the hearts of the people, even if it is a god-level exercise, it will be difficult to exert its divine might. ”
"His exercises can be called the blue blood washing silver gun, or the cold snow washing silver gun...... What about yours?"
As soon as Jiang Chi asked, Ji Mengxue's eyes were stunned and fell into deep thought.
After waiting for a while, Jiang Chi continued: "Let the gun in your hand fit your heart, there is no need to be obsessed with what your father has passed down." ”
Hearing this, Ji Mengxue's eyes lit up, with a silver gun in her hand, staring at her partner who had been with her for nearly 20 years.
Jiang Chi smiled happily, a flash of memory flashed in his eyes, he sighed in his heart, and said in his heart: "Old guy, the last thing, I did it for you, Huangquan Road, let's go!"
Suddenly, Ji Mengxue raised her head and stared at Jiang Chi with a strange expression.
She felt a little inexplicable, it was clear that Jiang Chi was younger than her, and his cultivation was lower than her...... But his pointing tone was like an inversion of the master-apprentice relationship between the two, she became an apprentice, and he was a teacher.
As if seeing through her thoughts, Jiang Chi looked a little embarrassed, coughed lightly, and said, "Actually, according to seniority, you should call me an uncle......"
