Chapter 17: One Night

"Xu Yuan?"

Looking at the familiar figure at the gate of the courtyard, Chu Mu thought about it and groaned.

But then, it was a little sudden.

In his memory, compared with the faltering father of the original owner, Xu Yuan's father obviously has a much broader future.

After only a few years in the inspection office, he took the position of team leader, and before he died, there was also news that he was going to be promoted to captain.

Obviously, Xu Yuan has enjoyed his father's legacy, otherwise, how could a new recruit who has only been on patrol for a few days participate in the core matter of interests in front of him.

After observing for a moment and keeping the general face in mind, Chu Mu turned around and left without hesitation.

The night is dark and the wind is high, unarmed, Chu Mu is alone, but he doesn't dare to use his own safety to test people's hearts.

"Does that count...... Walking too much at night...... Got a ghost? ”

Chu Mu had a whim, and then, he couldn't help but smile secretly, this metaphor should not be wrong.

For the people of Qinghe County, his patrol skin should be no different from a ghost.

After thinking about it, it didn't take long for Chu Mu to return to his small courtyard, and the courtyard door was closed, as if he was isolated from the world.

The lights were lit, and there was a little more light in the dim courtyard.

Although it was late at night, according to Chu Mu's work and rest time, it was obviously not time to rest.

The long knife was unsheathed, and with the saber in his hand, Chu Mu walked out of the bedroom.

Standing still in the courtyard, after a while, Chu Mu came out with a knife.

Chop, chop, tease......

The knife technique in memory is meticulously used.

With the experience of that "Spiritual Blessing", Chu Mu naturally knew very well where the focus of his current practice of sword art was.

Any other aspect of the knife can be put on hold.

The most important thing at the moment is to control the knife in his hand.

A long knife weighing several pounds can't be well controlled, and the weight of the long knife is enough to completely deform any of his knife styles.

It's a very simple analogy, that is, a knife split, the weight and the inertia brought by the force of the split, he can't control it at all.

As for changing to a lighter knife...... A person who does not have any foundation in martial arts, even if he takes a branch, it is impossible to achieve perfect control of the strength and change the knife...... It doesn't make much sense.

The thought was just a flash, and Chu Mu completely devoted himself to the blade in front of him.

There is no connection of moves, just a simple split, slash, and flirtation......

Several basic knife styles, one move, one style repeated.

Tedious...... And firm.

Before you know it, sweat slowly oozes out.

The clothes on his arms were slowly soaked, and the sweat between his eyebrows spilled with the swing of the blade.

Time also passes bit by bit.

In his previous life, it was hard for Chu Mu to imagine that he would insist on such a boring practice.

Even at present, Chu Mu doesn't know what this seemingly ordinary knife technique can finally practice.

But everything strange in this era gave him too much insecurity.

And every bit of increase in the skill value on the light curtain panel can give him an inexplicable sense of security.

"Hoo ......"

Pastor Chu exhaled, put down the long knife, and sweat even seeped through the handle of the knife and dripped along the blade.

[Name: Chu Mu.] 】

【Skills:

Basic Knife Technique (Beginner's Practice)48/100】

[Radiance: 15.2%]

The light curtain panel appeared in the field of vision, and Chu Mu looked at the skill value after the sword technique in a daze.

After more than half an hour of practice, the value has increased by as much as three points.

After so many days of practice, Chu Mu naturally figured out the effect of proficiency values for a long time.

His proficiency value is not the proficiency panel in the online article he read in his previous life, but it is just a reflection of his own skills.

In layman's terms, it means how far he has practiced his skills, and to what extent it will be reflected in this light curtain panel.

The role of proficiency is nothing more than the increase of one's own skills, which is reflected in numerical values.

But what is obvious is that you can see the return of your own efforts in the most intuitive way, and this alone is not terrifying.

After all, what people are most afraid of is useless work.

If everyone can see the return after paying in such an intuitive way, it is estimated that they will have to become the king of volumes.

After thinking for a moment, the light curtain panel disappeared, Chu Mu glanced around the small courtyard, put down the saber in his hand, and moved his body.

Chu Mu didn't know any ways to soothe and relax after exercise, so he simply shook his hands and kneaded and kneaded by himself.

Whether it has any effect or not, Chu Mu doesn't know very well, after all, exercising this kind of thing, it will last for a few days of soreness at the beginning, and then get used to it, as long as it is not overloaded, basically you can recover after a sleep.

After relaxing for about ten minutes, he went into the house to rest for a while, and then Chu Mu returned to the courtyard with a bucket and clothes.

A few buckets of cold water were splashed, scrubbed and washed, changed into clean clothes, and then entered the bedroom, and the flickering candles in the house were finally extinguished.

Chu Mu fell asleep, and the night was also fleeting......

……

Early the next morning, when the sky was still dark, Chu Mu had already gotten up, washed up as usual, and came to the courtyard with his saber.

After a night's sleep, the fatigue accumulated throughout the day also dissipated, waving the long knife, Chu Mu could be described as energetic.

One move and one style, but also a little more power.

It was not until the rising sun that Chu Mu put down the long knife in his hand.

Glancing at the light screen panel, Chu Mu couldn't help but be happy.

However, after half an hour of practice, this time it has increased by five points of proficiency for the first time.

"Not bad, not bad, not a small progress."

Chu Mu smiled, at this pace, it was estimated that it would not be long before his sword technique skill would break through to the next stage.

He casually put the long knife into the sheath, touched his empty belly, and then walked quickly to the bedroom, changed into his armor and hurried out the door.

Originally, according to Chu Mu's impression, in this era, the food must not be as good as his previous life, after all, just the wide variety of seasonings is enough to crush the food of this era.

But the truth is not as Chu Mu guessed, the basic seasonings are almost readily available, but due to the different worlds, some spices have different names.

And the type of food has become extremely prosperous because of the cheapness of food.

A simple breakfast, there are dozens of vendors on the street, and most of them are of different types.

After all, the basic price of one copper is still quite cheap compared to the price of grain.

Even if it is a beggar on the street, it is estimated that they can afford it, not to mention, there are hundreds of inspections in Nanshan Town that go out early and return late.

After eating a big bowl of steaming rice noodles at a roadside stall, Chu Mu slowly walked towards the inspection station.

If Chu Mu remembers correctly, yesterday He Ergou said that today is the time to pay.

"The salary will be paid at the beginning of the month, and the preparation is really good......"

Chu Mu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and his steps sped up a lot......
