Chapter 37: Laurent's Knife in the Heart

In the evening, the convoy arrived at a new location. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It was a small town called Crystal Town, which was once a famous gem town, and on the east side of the town there was a vein that produced many kinds of crystals, which were very popular with mages, and as we all know, mages represented wealth, and soon developed by a large number of merchants.

Gradually, a relatively prosperous small town has been formed, which could not have been prosperous for a long time by relying on mineral veins, but fortunately, this town has a good geographical location and is currently developing towards the kind of midway traveler's town.

Due to the war, the security in the vicinity is not very good.

A large number of displaced people in the west began to flee, and when the convoy approached the town, it was checked on horseback, and after the safety of the convoy was determined, it was released.

In fact, with the evacuation of the Vitans, the situation in the west became clear, and the format of the north-south confrontation was confirmed, many merchants began to run the trade route with the new gadgets they had bought from Bol City.

In recent times, the people of Crystal Town have also occasionally seen merchants passing by.

As long as there were enough profits, these merchants dared to sell goods in the face of bullets, and when the war had just subsided, many merchants who believed that time was money quickly formed caravans.

It was precisely because of the activation of these seemingly greedy merchants that they slowly began to drive economic recovery, and some wartime depressed towns began to gradually recover.

The Crystal Town is no small and is surrounded by walls.

It was a wall made of rows of logs that had been processed and not afraid of oil burning, which were supposed to be made from old trees, strong and heat-resistant, and thick logs in two rows, with reinforced planks in the middle, to make a wall comparable to that of stone.

It seems that in order to prepare for war, this town has built several arrow towers at the east and west gates of the town, and after Wang Xiaotian and them entered, they can also see various equipment for defending against the siege.

"This town looks wary! It's been a winter of war, and they still have so many armed men. ”

Noticing that there were many militiamen armed with spears at the entrance of the town, Wang Xiaotian said with some emotion that the war had made such a town vigilant.

The group found a hotel on the east side of the town, and in fact, most of the hotels were on the east side of the town.

When they arrived here, the two travelers who were traveling with them also began to separate, but the nearby hotels were all nearby, so they temporarily stayed in the hotel next to Wang Xiaotian and them.

......

The night passed, and the next morning, before the winter cold had subsided, Wang Xiaotian walked down the hotel wearing a coat.

At this time, there were some people who got up earlier than him.

"Out of the sword!"

"The speed of the sword should be fast, the sword drawing technique should be slow, but the sword should be fast!"

"Don't take too many steps. ”

"Feel the movement of the enemy, the sword momentum is changeable!"

......

On one side of the hotel, the pair of travelers were training.

At this time, the swordsman with the sword on his back was not silent, his hoarse voice seemed to be full of stories, but his deep voice was very steady, watching the girl take out the sword, his eyes were sharp, only at this time could he see his sharp side as a swordsman.

The middle-aged man did not carry the sword, he sat cross-legged on a large rock in front of the hotel, put the sword horizontally on his lap, and watched the girl train, meticulously.

The girl gritted her teeth and repeated the actions of drawing her sword, chopping, and slashing over and over again.

The morning was slightly cold, but the girl was wet with sweat, and the girl sweating in the sun made Wang Xiaotian think of the players he had seen on the court before.

Sonor!

I couldn't see the middle-aged man's movements clearly, and the sword on his leg had already whipped the girl's back.

The blow was not heavy, but this sudden blow made the girl who was drawing her sword not slow down in one breath, and staggered to the ground.

"Get up, go on!"

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and said lightly.

The girl gritted her teeth and continued to get up, the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl was wet with sweat, she was just wearing a thin coat in the early morning, from Wang Xiaotian's point of view, she could just see the girl's bumpy and graceful figure.

"The enemy's sword is uncertain, a swordsman, you should know where the enemy's sword is piercing!"

"Swordsmen don't just attack, counterattacks are also a way to draw swords......"

"When you draw your sword and the enemy draws your sword, you have to know how to fight back, the sword is a way, and the slash is not just a straight line. ”

"It's like this. ”

Saying that the sword in the middle-aged man's hand was not unsheathed, the shape was very peculiar, like a serrated sword drawing an arc, very cleverly from the left side of the sword, the right side of the sword, this should have made the girl stumble another blow but did not hit.

Sonor!

The girl closed her eyes tightly, and the short sword in her hand was like a divine help, and she turned sideways to the right side, blocking the beat, and at the same time, she retreated with her left foot, and her right hand showed no mercy, and the sword was like a dragon, stabbing the middle-aged man.

"Heart's Eye! Parry and counterattack!"

At this time, a relatively low and rough voice sounded behind Wang Xiaotian, and when he turned around, he saw that his two escort captains, Oradin and George, were standing behind him.

Oladin was surprised and looked at the two people in front of him with a solemn expression.

Sonor!

The middle-aged man turned around and slashed the sword horizontally, and his upper clothes did not tremble at all, and he easily blocked the sword.

Khooth!

A blow missed, the girl's eyes have not yet opened, her offensive is like a storm, crazy from different directions to stab at the middle-aged man, although the offensive is very fierce, but it can be clearly felt, the girl's sword is traceable, it seems to be following what trajectory, constantly attacking the middle-aged man.

"Duel Dance! And this stab! Is that really the one?"

Oladin seemed to know the two men, and he looked at them with an incredulous look.

"Olardin, do you know them?" Wang Xiaotian asked curiously as he looked at the dance-like attack below.

"My lord, you're joking, I don't know them, but my subordinates were fortunate enough to see an adult perform this secret technique. ”

Oladin looked nostalgic, as a refugee from the Northlands, when he fled to the west, he had a strong man from the Northland to protect them, and that person used such fighting skills.

"Oh?" Wang Xiaotian looked at Oladin suspiciously.

"It's the Dance of the Northland, the First Swordsman Family of the Northland, the Laurent Family!"

Oladin explained that the Laurent family, the first swordsman family in the Northland, known as the Dance of the Northland, used to serve under the Grand Duke of the Northland, and their family was the sharpest swordsman in the North.

And what that girl just used was the famous "Laurent Heart Eye Knife".

It is a strange sword technique that can parry any attack and counterattack, and combined with the secret skill of the Laurent family, "Duel Dance", it has always been known as a swordsman in the Northland.

"Why is such a nobleman here?"

Hearing Olardin's explanation, this question arose spontaneously in Wang Xiaotian's mind.
