Chapter 10 He's too easy to deceive
Look at the sword!
Look at the legs!
Look at the flying sword!
These three moves seem to be imprinted in Xingqiu's heart forever, and at the same time, they also open the door to a new world for him.
For the first time, he knew that he could fight like this.
"Like, you won?" Shi Lan took off her protective gear and said with a sense of loss.
Although his last wave of attacks was very strong, before that, he had already had a lot of "wounds" painted on Xingqiu's body.
From the abdomen to the shoulders and the position of the heart, there are more than a dozen sword marks, large and small, if it were put in reality, he would have bled to death a long time ago, and there would be no follow-up at all.
There is no way, after all, Shi Lan relies on brute force and instinct, and he can't compare to Xingqiu's professional swordsmanship.
"No, you won." Xingqiu took off his helmet, and there was a striking sword mark on it, which was the mark of being slashed by Shi Lan at the beginning when he raised his hand.
"You made me understand that those so-called fancy shelves are useless...... On the real battlefield, this will only give the enemy a chance to take advantage of it. ”
"Right, that makes sense."
Shi Lan unceremoniously accepted this compliment.
He also secretly admired Xingqiu's talent in his heart, and in just half a year, he had such combat power, which couldn't help but remind him of the bold words of Qiu three years ago
"The best kendo warriors will surely defeat the Vision wielder."
Perhaps, when Xingqiu grows up, he can really do it.
Xingqiu seemed to think about it, his face was much better than just now, and his mood gradually recovered, and he said to Shi Lan: "You have strength and speed, and lack skills, otherwise, you will go to the Guhua Sect with me to learn swords, right?" ”
"Learn the sword ......" Shi Lan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head: "I prefer to use my fists and feet to Hanfeng iron... However, I still understand that two fists are hard to beat guns and swords. If the Guhua School has a two-handed sword course, I can go and learn it, and the feeling of heaviness in my hand is also very good, and the one-handed sword is enough......"
Xingqiu shook his head in disappointment: "It seems that the Guhua faction does not teach two-handed swords, but if you want to learn two-handed swords, you can communicate with Chongyun, he uses two-handed swords." ”
"Uh-huh." Chongyun smiled and nodded, indicating that he was highly skilled.
He ...... Will it work? Shi Lan will be skeptical.
Chongyun is a demon exorcist He knows it, and he also knows that he has achieved a lot of results, but he has never seen Chongyun really make a move.
Seeing that Chongyun hung his head in frustration, Shi Lan's words changed: "But I'm still very willing to learn simple skills, as long as you have time to teach me..."
"That's fine!" Chongyun was happy again, no one recognized his martial arts and was not needed, he was very depressed, and now that he had this opportunity, he was very willing to teach him: "I will be at home every night, and I will be at home if the weather is hot, you just need to come, I can teach you everything I will." ”
"That's a word!"
Waving goodbye to Xingqiu, who was applying ointment to his face, at nine o'clock in the evening, Shi Lan finally collected the three hundred questionnaires.
"Next, go to the Moon Sea Pavilion to find Ningguang, and you can earn 4,000 Mora for this trip."
4,000 Mora is already a good income, enough for a family of three for about a week's daily necessities.
Especially Daddy Shishan has to stay in bed all this time, and this income is very important.
Yujing Terrace and Yuehai Pavilion are places where Liyue's high-level officials handle affairs, such as Ganyu and Ningguang, and up to the Seven Stars of Liyue, where you can get a glimpse of the dignity of the superiors.
Even though Ningguang is not a seven-star now, her prestige and status have reached its peak, and it is rumored that this generation of Tianquan Star has already established Ningguang as the next generation of Tianquan*, and next, as long as Ningguang performs well in the election, Tianquan's position is basically nine out of ten.
So even if Shi Lan doesn't have much eyesight, she knows that she has to hug Ningguang's thigh, follow the big guy, and be able to eat and drink spicy food.
"Stop! Who? "The Millelith Army of Yuehaiting spotted the boy with a cloth bag and stopped him.
Shi Lan took out the exclusive pass issued by Ningguang: "I'm here to find Miss Ningguang." ”
"Hmm...... The pass is true, wait a minute, Lord Ningguang is taking care of the important business, I'll go and report it. ”
The soldiers of the Millelith Army came quickly, and the process of reporting did not make Shi Lan wait too long.
"You can go in."
Shi Lan spread his hands: "I said, I come here every day and I am an acquaintance, you don't need to stop me all the time." ”
The Millelith soldier shook his head: "The rules still have to be followed." ”
"Okay, I respect your work."
Shi Lan sorted out her appearance, held her head high, came to the door, and knocked on the door.
"Come in." It was Yelan who opened the door.
She was much taller than Shi Lan, and Shi Lan had to raise her head slightly to look at her.
"Good evening, Sister Lan."
"Actually, it's too late for you to hand in the task tomorrow." Yelan crossed her waist to look at him.
She's talking to Ningguang about something.
"It's okay, I don't mind." Shi Lan looked familiar and strode into the Moon Sea Pavilion.
Yelan held her forehead: "You're really welcome......"
The decoration here is splendid, no matter how many times she comes, Shi Lan will be dazzled every time.
The floor is paved with high-quality red cherry wood, which is said to be only available on Inazuma's side, and the hanging lamp in the middle of the hall is inlaid with night stones, and the four corners of the house are also lined with candlesticks, and the cold and warm lights correspond, although the room is very bright, but Shi Lan is not used to this light.
Ascending the spiral staircase to the second floor, Ningguang naturally has to work upstairs.
Turning the corner, a large screen in the middle divides the hall into two sections, and the outside part is where other staff handle their work, and there are a few maids cleaning on the side, these are Ningguang's cronies, only serving Ningguang alone.
"It is estimated that Sister Ningguang won't be able to live here for long, and she will move to Yujingtai after becoming a seventh star."
Shi Lan waited in front of the screen, looking at the paintings on the screen.
It's not hard to recognize the stunning scenery in the painting as a mountain among the clouds, the most beautiful scenery in Liyue.
Shi Lan made up her mind to see it with her own eyes if she had the chance
"Ningguang, Shi Lan is here." Yelan also followed.
I don't know why, Yelan didn't have a respectful attitude towards Ningguang like everyone else, but instead looked very casual.
Yelan's style and attitude made Shi Lan sometimes worry about whether Ningguang would wear small shoes for her.
"Let the little one in." There was a pleasant sound from behind the screen, accompanied by a hint of laziness.
"You can go in." Night Landway.
Shi Lan wanted to complain: "I can hear it." ”
"Sister Ningguang!"
Changing her expression, Shi Lan walked into the screen, and at a glance she could see the most powerful woman in Liyue in the future, Ningguang.
"You're done?"
Ningguang sat behind her desk, leaning forward slightly on the desk, wearing a black silk gloved arm on the table, supporting the side face with the back of his hand, and playing with a cigarette pouch with the other hand, lazy and leisurely, this appearance of Ningguang is not seen by ordinary people.
Shi Lan's expression froze, and he said seriously: "It's all done." ”
"Hehe......"
Ningguang looked at Shi Lan's pretended serious expression and couldn't help but laugh.
The sound is like a silver bell, and it is graceful to listen.
"You don't have to look serious in front of me, it's okay to be relaxed."
Shi Lan immediately put down her fake and serious appearance, took out the questionnaire from her pocket and put it on the table.
"In the afternoon, I distributed and collected all the questionnaires, and they are all here." Shi Lan smiled and said, "But I'm tired to death." ”
"It's so hard for you." Ning Guangsu picked up a questionnaire in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he simply glanced at the questionnaire, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
She was very satisfied with these answers.
"Did you really do it alone? What about 300 questionnaires, I gave you two days, I didn't expect you to be so capable, and in one afternoon, it was completed? ”
Ningguang's voice was very soft and flat, making it impossible to hear her true thoughts.
"Uh...... This ......" Shi Lan's brain was racing rapidly, and then he sighed and replied truthfully: "I asked my friends for help, and it's not just my credit. ”
Liyue couldn't hide anything from Ningguang, he still knew it, Ningguang didn't like children who lied.
This is the rich woman who finally got on the list, pointing to her for dinner.
"Hehehe...... Ningguang couldn't help but laugh again, and put down the cigarette pouch, "It's really a very reliable little guy." ”
"Okay, don't be too nervous." Ningguang lazily leaned on the back of the sofa, looking at this little guy and really couldn't help but want to tease him.
"How much did you get paid?"
Shi Lan immediately came to his senses and stretched out four fingers: "4000 Mora!" ”
Ningguang opened the drawer, pretended to be surprised, took out a Mora with a denomination of 10,000 and shook it on his fingertips: "Oh, I don't have change, give you 10,000 Mora, how about you give me change?" ”
Yelan leaned against the pillar and tilted her head, as if she had noticed something, and felt that Ningguang was going to trick people......
"This ......"
Shi Lan counted the Mora on his body, and there were exactly 6,000 left, six Mora with a denomination of one thousand.
If you make change, you can make change, but it's obviously to hand in tasks to earn pay, how does it feel like buying something and making a transaction......
(I thought the 10,000 Moras would be given to me...) )
After exchanging the money, Shi Lan said happily: "Then I'll go back first, and if I have any tasks, just let Sister Yelan tell me." ”
Yelan pouted: "I'm not an errand runner......"
The reward has been obtained, Shi Lan said goodbye, it is already late, I have to go home to sleep, there is no time to greet here, and Yelan and Ningguang are obviously talking, it will not be wrong to go quickly.
Turning around and not walking far, Ningguang suddenly stopped Shi Lan, shook the Mora in his hand, and said, "Little guy, wait a minute, what about me, I just found 4,000 Mora here, or you can return the 10,000 Mora to me?" How is it? ”
Yelan smiled.
(You can't be fooled by this little trick, right?) )
There is no suspense.
Shi Lan just scratched his head, didn't react for a while, muttered that it was really troublesome, and then took 4,000 Mora and returned the 10,000, and ran out of the door on his short legs.
Yelan was stunned, and looked at Shi Lan in disbelief that she really left like that, and couldn't help but hold her forehead and sigh softly.
"It's really you, Shi Lan."
"What are you laughing at?" Ningguang teased Shi Lan, his boring mood was much better, and he threw the 10,000 Mora to Yelan: "Send it to Shi Lan's house, his father is injured, and the one who can help is to help." ”
Then she added: "Anyway, you just drop by, it's just a matter of raising your hands." ”
"Huh? And back? Yelan's expression froze: "Then you just now?" Why is it ......?"
"I, I just wanted to tease him, but I didn't expect him to really ......"
Yelan spread her hands: "Is it fun to deceive a child?" ”
"Indeed." Ningguang looked at the questionnaire in his hand: "Suddenly I don't feel a sense of accomplishment at all... On the contrary, I feel very guilty..."
