Chapter 8: The Sacred Sword Samurai
Luo Di immediately had a strange feeling in his heart, this middle-aged man in front of him must be a samurai! And based on Luo Di's feelings, he must be a swordsman! Luo Di himself couldn't tell where he got this feeling from, but he was so sure!
The middle-aged man seemed to be quite interested in Luo Di, and he smiled faintly: "Okay, I heard that you are a swordsman, let's try your swordsmanship first, do you have a sword?"
As soon as these words came out, Roddy's face couldn't help but turn red, and then he remembered the long sword he had picked up last night, and immediately straightened his chest again, and said loudly: "I'm not a full-fledged swordsman yet! But I will......! I have my own sword!, but last night...... They took it away!"
The middle-aged man nodded, smiled and glanced back at Nicole, who didn't speak, just nodded. So the middle-aged man said in a loud voice: "So, okay, which of you is going to take this little swordsman's sword back to him?"
It seemed that the status of this middle-aged man was really not low, and immediately a servant ran away, and after a while, the servant came back with a long sword, which was the same sword that Roddy had taken last night.
"Is this your sword?" the middle-aged man smiled, his gaze sweeping over the rust on the sword as if inadvertently.
In good conscience, this sword is not bad, you know, in the territory of the empire, not everyone can wear a weapon on the street. The sword looked a little older, but it was still sharp—after all, it was a good weapon given by the fat man in the bar.
Roddy's face couldn't help but blush, but the arrogance of the boy made him unwilling to lose face in front of Nicole, so he puffed up his chest and said loudly: "This is indeed my sword! I have a better one! But I didn't bring it today!"
The middle-aged man nodded, pondered, and said, "So, okay, let me see your swordsmanship, you use your sword, I will shoot at you, let me see how long you can support it, okay?"
"Good!" Roddy immediately agreed with his sword in hand. Beauty is at present, let alone asking him to do it with people, even if he wants Roddy to kill a dragon, our little virgin will not frown.
The middle-aged man smiled slightly, bent down and picked up a wide big sword on the chair, glanced at Luo Di, and said lightly: "Okay, you pay attention, I'm going to make a move!"
Luo Di stared at the middle-aged man attentively, his body tensed, and he was ready to take a defensive posture.
"Left!" the middle-aged man snorted softly, and slashed at him with a sword. The speed of this sword was terrifying, and Luo Di couldn't see the opponent's sword clearly, only feeling a white light flashing towards his left, and he could only instinctively block it horizontally with his sword.
With the sound of the bell, Roddy felt as if he had been hit by a running horse, and Tengteng took several steps back to stand firm. The middle-aged man didn't wait for him to come back to his senses, and shouted, "Right!" and then a sword slashed down again!
Roddy didn't have time to adjust his posture, and in a hurry, he grabbed the hilt of the sword with both hands to fight. This time the force was greater than the last time, and Roddy retreated to the wall before he could stand. But a face was already red.
The middle-aged man stood still, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "It's okay, your strength is okay, and your reaction is good, but the defensive posture just now is a little too tight, so it's not flexible enough." ”
Luo Di let out a long breath, took a step forward, and said loudly: "I let you attack just now, this time I will replace me!"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "You?"
Before Roddy could say anything, he noticed that Nicole was already in the chair behind him with a mocking smile on her face. Roddy looked down and realized that the blade of the sword in his hand had been cut into two gaps. Roddy's face immediately changed - oh my God, this sword is worth a few silver coins! Although it is not as good as Roddy's own sword, Roddy was going to sell it for a little living expenses when he ran out of it!
He was distressed, and couldn't help but gently stroke the blade of the sword with his hand, this time it was better, his hand just pressed on the blade, and the sword suddenly cracked in an instant, and then clanged into seven or eight pieces, and fell to the ground, leaving only a sword hilt in Roddy's hand!
At this time, Roddy's face turned completely white, and his heart was extremely depressed.
The middle-aged man smiled faintly, gently put the sword in his hand back into the chair, turned to Nicole and smiled: "He's good! According to his age, it's already rare to be able to catch my two swords......
Roddy cried and said, "Yes, you will break my sword with two swords!"
Nicole glanced at Luo Di and said coldly, "Shut up! What do you think you are? Do you still think you can beat Mr. Qiu? Mr. Qiu is the top swordsman in Yanjing! He is recognized as the most likely candidate to reach the Holy Sword Warrior!"
"Mr. Qiu!!" Rody exclaimed, "You are Mr. Qiu!!"
The young man blushed and said in surprise: "You are Mr. Qiu, the chief swordsman of the Yanjing Palace! God, you are recognized as the most promising person to draw the holy sword in the sword drawing conference!"
Luo Di stared at the middle-aged man, his face full of admiration - for a junior swordsman, well, no, it should be said that a quasi-swordsman, Mr. Qiu is a legendary master, equivalent to a legend-like figure! Especially for a young swordsman, what could be more admired than a top swordsman with a clear voice?
The frustration on Roddy's face was immediately swept away!
Oh my God, I actually competed with Mr. Qiu in front of him! I was able to catch Mr. Qiu's two swords hard! The other party was recognized as a quasi-holy sword warrior! In fact, as long as Mr. Qiu could pull out the legendary holy sword at next year's sword drawing conference, then he would be the fourth holy sword warrior in the history of the empire for hundreds of years! That is a legendary figure that only comes out once in a hundred years!
Mr. Qiu smiled indifferently and said, "Okay, Miss Nicole, what I promised you has been done." This young man is indeed good, if I am not mistaken, he is already close to reaching the level of a two-level swordsman, compared to ...... Compare...... Much stronger than your brother. When he said this, Mr. Qiu seemed to have a strange expression on his face.
Nicole nodded, she suddenly stood up, walked over to Mr. Qiu, leaned over, and whispered something in Mr. Qiu's ear.
After hearing this, Mr. Qiu immediately frowned, glanced at Nicole, shook his head very resolutely, and said, "No! I said that unless it is from the Tulip family, I will not accept anyone else!"
Nicole looked at Mr. Qiu's resolute expression, sighed, and said softly, "Okay then." ”
Mr. Qiu thought for a moment and said with a wry smile: "However, I can give him a little guidance, and I will come over tomorrow afternoon." ”
Roddy was still stupidly looking at Nicole and Mr. Cho - in fact, his eyes were more on Nicole. Nicole had already glared at him: "Stupid, don't you thank Mr. Qiu! Mr. promised to teach you swordsmanship tomorrow!"
Roddy hadn't reacted yet, and was still thinking about why she was so good-looking even with her eyes......
Nicole stomped her foot angrily and shouted, "Roddy!!"
Luo Di was startled, and immediately woke up from his thoughts, and Mr. Qiu had already said lightly: "Remember, tomorrow afternoon, I will come over in this courtyard." ”
After speaking, this swordsmanship master had already turned around and left.
Nicole glanced sideways at Roddy and said to the servant in the courtyard, "Take him down!
Nicole turned and walked towards the east side of the courtyard, and the two servants immediately came up and pushed and dragged Roddy after her.
At this moment, Luo Di finally came back to his senses completely, and after more than ten seconds, he suddenly said loudly: "Oh my God! Mr. Qiu wants to instruct me in swordsmanship! Oh my God! Mr. Qiu wants to instruct me in swordsmanship!"
"Shut up, you idiot!" Nicole shouted angrily.
Luo Di couldn't care so much under the ecstasy at the moment, so he broke free from the two servants who were holding him, and ran to the front with a jump, shouting: "Just now Mr. Qiu said that he wanted to instruct me in swordsmanship, is it true?
"Shut up!!" Nicole couldn't take it anymore and turned around and shouted, "Looks like I have to teach you something." She lifted her chin, slowly extended her index finger with her left hand, pointed at Roddy through the void, and then raised it slightly. I didn't see what she did, Roddy flew out with a snort, and then fell to the ground on all fours.
"First of all, when you speak to me in the future, you must add the word 'master' in front of it! Don't forget!" Nicole gave him a cold look.
With that, she turned and continued to stride forward, and the two servants hurried up to set up Roddy and follow behind.
Although Luo Di fell into a sparse manner, he still whispered stupidly: "Oh my God, Mr. Qiu wants to instruct me in swordsmanship......"
Nicole walked ahead indignantly.
In fact, she didn't know why she was so angry! She had never been a grumpy person, but she didn't know why, every time she saw that guy with a yin and yang face, she couldn't help but get angry, as if every move he made would make her angry to death - especially when he looked at him so stupidly - and when she thought of what happened last night, Nicole wanted to tear this guy apart with a knife at once!
Roddy followed Nicole to a small two-story building that looked quite old, and the two servants behind him stopped in the distance early and did not dare to follow.
Nicole glanced at Roddy and said lightly, "You go up with me!"
Roddy looked at the dilapidated little building, which seemed to have not been repaired for a long time, the withered trees and branches on the walls were slow to climb, and the two towering trees blocked out the sunlight, making it look a little shady.
There was a faint feeling of uneasiness in Roddy's heart.
