Chapter 3: Handsome Master

The first rays of sunlight in the early morning secretly shone into the dim cave, and the birds in the trees were also chirping, Shen Linfeng didn't sleep all night, as long as he closed his eyes, his mind was full of Xia Ziyan's beautiful figure. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Maybe I can help you. The words she said always echoed in Shen Linfeng's ears.

"How will she help me?"

The rising sun had already illuminated the entire cave, Shen Linfeng sat up and carefully looked at the place where he had lived for six years, the cave was five or six feet deep, and the bed under him was covered with a little hay on a shabby wooden plank, and a pair of shabby bedding covered it.

On the opposite side of the bed, several stones were built into a simple stove, a rusty iron pot was placed on it, and in the deepest part of the cave was a smooth and heavy stone slab, Shen Linfeng had dreamed countless times that an old man in white came out from behind the stone slab, took him as an apprentice, and taught him martial arts.

But whenever he woke up and looked at the empty cave, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.

At noon, Shen Linfeng walked out of the cave, holding a sharpened wooden stick in his hand and heading towards the waterhole under the waterfall.

Shen Linfeng stood on the bluestone with a pair of eyes staring at the fish in the water, he rolled up his trouser leg and groped down to the depths of the pool, and then held the center of the wooden stick with his right hand and raised it high, a carp in the water shook its body and swam unscrupulously, Shen Linfeng saw the right time to insert the wooden stick into the water, and when he pulled it out, the fat carp was pierced by the wooden stick.

At this time, a burst of silver bell-like laughter sounded in the flowers behind him, Shen Linfeng looked back, but saw a girl out of the flowers, between the gaps in the verdant trees, revealing her skin as white as snow, and a pair of big eyes looked at Shen Linfeng opposite.

"Zi Yan?" he exclaimed.

Xia Ziyan slowly walked out of the flowers and looked at Shen Linfeng in the water with a smile on her face.

"I didn't expect you to be pretty good," she said with a smile, pointing to the fish on the stick.

Shen Linfeng groped his way to the shore and said while putting the fish into the bamboo basket: "Of course, I'll catch a hare to cook it when I see it at night." ”

Xia Ziyan "giggled" and laughed: "So I have another mouth today." ”

"Haha......" The two of them laughed and walked towards the cave, half an hour later, the smell of grilled fish spread in the cave, Shen Linfeng rotated the fish body while adding firewood to the fire.

Xia Ziyan was walking back and forth in the cave at this time, she looked at the cave carefully, and suddenly a stone slab not far away attracted her attention, she walked straight over and gently knocked on the stone slab with her hand.

Seeing this, Shen Linfeng said softly: "It's just a mountain rock, nothing." ”

"Oh, how do you know?" asked Xia Ziyan.

"I thought that this smooth slab should not be in this cave, so I chiseled it with a hammer for two whole days, and it was still like this. Shen Linfeng said dejectedly, Xia Ziyan looked down at the deep pit at the bottom of the stone slab and didn't speak.

"Miss Ziyan, where are you from, why did you come to this Lujia Village?" asked Shen Linfeng while chewing on the grilled fish.

Xia Ziyan hesitated slightly, but quickly replied, "Me?" hehe...... I am the daughter of the Xia Mansion in Longshan Town, my father is in the medicinal materials business, and I am going to this ten miles and eight villages with my father to buy medicinal materials. ”

Shen Linfeng was skeptical when he heard it, but he thought in his heart later: "This girl is dressed in silk brocade, and at first glance, she was born in a rich and noble family, but she is just ...... Yesterday's martial arts did not look like an ordinary person. ”

Xia Ziyan looked at Shen Linfeng, who bowed his head and pondered, and said, "Hey, you won't believe me, will you?"

Shen Linfeng was taken aback by the sudden words, and waved his hand again and again and said, "How... How, I was just thinking about something else. ”

Xia Ziyan moved in front of him and stared at him with big eyes: "Then what are you thinking?"

Shen Linfeng said suddenly: "By the way, Miss Ziyan, your martial arts are so powerful, can you... Teach me a one-and-a-half-trick?"

After these words, the cave returned to calm, Xia Ziyan looked at him motionlessly, and Shen Linfeng's face was slightly red when she stared at her, and he couldn't help but lower his head.

After a while, Xia Ziyan said leisurely: "Okay!"

The spring breeze blew on the two of them with a hint of warmth, Shen Linfeng stood on the top of the mountain with a wooden stick in his hand, while Xia Ziyan stood in front of him with a short sword in his hand and said solemnly: "Today I will teach you a few simple but very practical swordsmanship, this swordsmanship is called "Ling Bo Chop" Now teach you three tricks first, and I will demonstrate it to you." ”

The first move: "Immortal Pathfinding" Xia Ziyan jumped up in the air, her body turned forward, and the short sword in her right hand swung forward sharply, and there was a stake in front of her.

With a "poof", the sword sank into the stake, and then her body flipped in the air while turning the sword with her right hand, only to hear a "click", and the stake was torn apart.

The second move: "embattled" The soles of her feet just landed, and then she lowered her body and swept her legs, and the sword in her hand also rotated together, and the stakes where the sword light went were all broken at the waist, and then her legs rotated hard and her body went straight to the sky.

The third move: "Divine Dragon Enters the Sea" Xia Ziyan in the air stabilized her body and then turned over, dived down, and the short sword in her hand kept swinging, and the sword light smashed the broken wooden stake.

Shen Linfeng looked at Xia Ziyan who landed lightly in a daze, and his face was full of bitterness at this time.

"How's it going?" Xia Ziyan smiled playfully at him.

"I... I... I don't even know the most basic light skills, how can I be as powerful as you?" Shen Linfeng said embarrassedly.

"Ah, I'm just going to show you a demonstration, I'll teach you light skills from tomorrow, but ...... Can you teach me that ......," Xia Ziyan said, pointing to the slingshot on Shen Linfeng's waist.

"What are you doing here?"

"It's fun......" After speaking, Xia Ziyan went down the mountain step by step.

In the evening, two figures lay on the ground in the grass on the side of the mountain, staring intently ahead, and not far from them a pheasant was burying its head in search of food.

Xia Ziyan was struggling to aim with a slingshot in her hand, while Shen Linfeng had been chanting beside her, chattering about shooting skills.

The more Xia Ziyan listened, her brows furrowed, and then she scolded in a low voice: "Oh, can you close your mouth first." ”

Shen Linfeng turned his head to the side in amusement, Xia Ziyan was just about to let go of shooting, but Shen Linfeng muttered again: "This is our last chance, as long as we can't fight anymore, we will be hungry tonight." ”

Xia Ziyan turned her head and smiled at him and kicked him fiercely, and then her right hand was released, and a stone rushed forward, and finally landed lightly at the feet of the pheasant, and the pheasant was frightened and ran away.

Shen Linfeng jumped up and said dissatisfiedly: "I said why are you so stupid." With that, he snatched the slingshot and began to aim.

Xia Ziyan slowly stood up and gave him a hard look, and then with a flick of her fingers, a stone caught in the strong wind and headed towards the pheasant's head, followed by a miserable cry and the pheasant fell to the ground.

Xia Ziyan looked at Shen Linfeng, who was still aiming stupidly, and left with a "hum" in her mouth.

After the meal, the sun has completely disappeared, the stars in the sky seem to open their eyes and blink, and occasionally a few meteors will pass by, adding a touch of beauty to this gorgeous night sky.

Xia Ziyan looked at Shen Linfeng, who was constantly waving a wooden stick in front of her, and shouted, "Hey, are you going to stay here all the time, don't you want to go out and have a look?"

Shen Linfeng stopped his movements, sat next to her, looked up at the night sky and said, "I think, when I learn martial arts, I will go out to avenge my father and mother." Xia Ziyan stopped talking, shook her head and smiled.

The next day, Shen Linfeng was still asleep, and a sound of "dangchang" in the cave woke him up, and when he got up to look, he saw Xia Ziyan pinching his waist with both hands and glaring at him angrily.

"Hey, is there an apprentice like you, the sun is drying your butt and you can't get up!" Xia Ziyan said dissatisfiedly.

Shen Linfeng smiled apologetically, and then found two white cloth bags under the bed.

He pointed to the cloth bag and said, "What is this?"

Xia Ziyan turned her head to the entrance of the cave: "From today onwards, you must always carry these two cloth bags, and you are not allowed to take them off when you sleep." ”

Shen Linfeng stretched out his hand and lifted it, the weight was not light, he opened it and saw that it was stuffed with rough pig iron.

"What does this mean?" Shen Linfeng looked at the pig iron and was puzzled.

Xia Ziyan ignored him and walked straight out of the cave, and Shen Linfeng hurriedly got up to follow.

Next to the waterhole, a basket with a diameter of about two meters was placed there, and the basket was full of sand, and Shen Linfeng looked at Xia Ziyan who was constantly circling around the basket in confusion at this time.

I saw her lightly jump onto the basket, walking back and forth along the edge that was only two fingers wide, looking at the stunned Shen Linfeng, the corners of her mouth smiled slightly and said: "The superior light skill pays attention to controlling with qi, and you can soar the clouds and control the fog, but you have no internal strength at all, so let's start practicing from this most basic first." ”

She jumped off the basket and stood beside Shen Linfeng: "You tie the cloth bag to your legs first." ”

Shen Linfeng tied two heavy cloth bags to his calves, then stood up and looked at Xia Ziyan with straight eyes, she was a little impatient by Shen Linfeng and then yelled: "Oh, why are you looking at me, go on!"

"Oh!" Shen Linfeng suddenly realized that he slowly climbed onto the basket, and it was difficult to stand still on the narrow edge of the basket, let alone walk on it. He stood on it step by step, and the heavy pig iron on his legs made it even more difficult for him to walk, only to see him fall to the ground for a while, and fall into the basket for a while, which provoked Xia Ziyan to laugh.

Despite constantly falling, Shen Linfeng never gave up, and there was always something in his heart that supported him to get up, and that was hatred.

He walked faster and faster on the rim of the basket, from walking to running, and his confidence increased as the sand in the basket gradually decreased.

In this way, from the warm spring to the hot summer, day after day, the two of them either practiced martial arts by the pool, or practiced swords on the top of the mountain, sometimes caught fish in the river, and sometimes caught rabbits in the grass.

One day, Xia Ziyan sat on a high tree fork and watched Shen Linfeng running fast, at this moment the sand in the basket was completely gone, if you want to keep the balance of the basket from being trampled over, you can only run faster and faster, so that you can be as light as a swallow.

Shen Linfeng turned over and landed on the ground, picked up the wooden stick on the ground and waved it, and when he saw Xia Ziyan on the fork of the tree, he lifted his breath and stepped on the trunk of the tree and easily fell to Xia Ziyan's side, and the two sat side by side and watched in the distance.

As the sun set, the sky was flushed, the glow shone on their faces, the evening breeze ruffled their long hair, the clothes were fluttering, the sound of running water beneath them, the rattling of leaves, and the occasional bird chirping in front of them.

Xia Ziyan's face was slightly red, and she muttered to herself, "It's so beautiful......"

Shen Linfeng turned his head to look at her, and said the same: "Yes, it's so beautiful!"
