Chapter 39: The Yue Nu Sword
After the golden ape took a stance, a shepherdessman stepped forward with a bamboo stick in her hand and also made a starting gesture in swordsmanship. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Lao Jin looks at the sword!" The girl screamed, her wrist trembled slightly, and the bamboo stick conjured up seven or eight illusory shadows that were difficult to distinguish between true and false, and attacked with a sneering sound, and the end of the rod shrouded many vital points on the ape's body.
Chen Yi, who was hiding in the distance and peeking in the distance, secretly cheered, although this girl did not have any true qi cultivation, but the swordsmanship she used was extremely varied, and she also had good power with her moves alone.
Compared with this shepherd girl, the performance of the golden haired ape was even more jaw-dropping to Chen Yi. It seems to be well versed in the principle of "preemptive strike" in martial arts, and when the girl makes a move, it still maintains its original posture motionless, and a pair of slightly yellowed smart eyes look at the attacking stick shadow without blinking.
Until the girl's sword momentum was no longer able to change, the ape suddenly made a move, and the bamboo stick passed through the illusion of the opponent's bamboo stick like lightning, and the end of the stick accurately captured the wrist joint of the girl's right hand with a slight touch.
The girl felt a numbness in her wrist, her five fingers opened involuntarily, and the bamboo stick in her hand fell to the ground.
When the girl picked up the bamboo stick and retreated with a little unwillingness, another girl stepped forward with a stick to fight the ape, but it was also difficult to be the power of the ape's sword.
One by one, the girls stepped forward, but none of them were able to take the ape's move.
Chen Yi took this result for granted. Although he couldn't see the ape's body, and he didn't know if it had evolved into a spirit monster after practicing qi, but in terms of swordsmanship alone, this ape had really reached the realm of supernatural transcendence. And those girls obviously don't have a foundation in martial arts, although they have learned some swordsmanship moves, their understanding and use of sword moves are 108,000 miles worse than that ape.
I don't know if there are too many failures to get used to it, the girls didn't show much disappointment and frustration, but they all held bamboo sticks and put down cruel words to the ape, saying something like continue to practice hard and beat you tomorrow.
On the contrary, after the ape abused the vegetables and won a great victory, there was no expression of joy and pride, and the eyes full of wisdom and emotion like human beings showed a look of disappointment and sadness.
The maidens chattered and laughed as they walked towards the huts, and the apes turned and flew up to the treetops a few times before disappearing into the twilight.
Chen Yi turned around and quietly followed behind those girls, seeing that they had gone to visit Bai Wufang as they had said before.
More than a dozen girls crowded into the thatched hut where Bai Wufang was, and the small thatched hut was immediately bustling and lively.
Chen Yi heard Bai Wufang and the girls ask each other about each other's experiences of being taken captive, but they were all the same, and there was nothing new to discover.
The girls also talked about the daily sword competition with the ape, Bai Wufang was very interesting, and confidently assured the girls that they had a foundation in martial arts, and they would be able to practice swordsmanship as soon as possible to defeat the ape, and everyone would be free.
Later, they talked about the white-clothed young man who took them captive and made such a strange request, Chen Yi was a little speechless to find that most of these girls actually had a good impression of the young man, and when guessing the young man's intentions, several girls shyly guessed whether this was his unique way of choosing a partner, and there was quite a sense of longing.
Then the girls started to cook together. The young man in white was very considerate, and actually prepared a lot of rice, flour, grain, oil, fish, meat, vegetables and vegetables in every thatched hut.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yi also understood why these captive girls were a little happy. They will come out to shepherd the sheep, and their families will inevitably not be rich, and they will not have to work and hunger on weekdays.
Now that I have come to this paradise with beautiful mountains and rivers, I have no worries about food and clothing every day, I am not lonely with my partners, and I can also shepherd sheep and practice swords as a pastime. In addition to not being allowed to see their parents, relatives and friends, this is really a happy life comparable to that of the gods for them.
The girls each took out their skills to hold a small reception dinner for Bai Wufang, and even brought a small jar of wine for each person to drink, and they were happy.
When Bai Wufang was the only one left in the room, she first cleaned up the cold and messy cups and plates on the table, and then sat down with her cheeks under a not very bright oil lamp, and after a moment suddenly slapped the table with her hand, and scolded angrily:
"I thought that the kid surnamed Chen had some ability, but it turned out to be an embroidered pillow that was useless! Seeing that this girl couldn't be rescued from captivity, it had been so long that he couldn't even track him down here!"
Her words fell, and Chen Yi's voice came suddenly: "The white girl said this, it is inevitable that she is a little wronged. ”
A look of surprise and joy appeared on Bai Wufang's face, and he turned his head to look at the voice, and saw Chen Yi, who had sneaked into the room at some point, lifted the "invisibility spell" and appeared in shape.
Seeing Chen Yi appear out of thin air from nothing, Bai Wufang opened his mouth and stammered, pointing at him and stammering: "You...... You're ......."
Chen Yi smiled: "It's just some tricks, it's not worth mentioning." The next morning, he followed the white girl here, and during the day he inquired about the situation in the valley, and only then did he have the opportunity to meet the girl. ”
Bai Wufang thought of his complaint to Chen Yi just now, his face flushed slightly, and he immediately said vigilantly: "That young man in white doesn't know where he is, aren't you afraid of being discovered by him here?"
"Don't worry, Miss Bai," Chen Yi had already made a decision, "I just used a little trick to seal this thatched hut, and people outside can't hear the movement inside." ”
Only then did Bai Wufang put his mind at ease, pointed to the wall and said, "Chen Gongzi came just in time, I have something to show you." ”
In fact, without Bai Flawless Guidance, Chen Yi had already noticed when he came in that the walls on the four sides of this thatched hut were covered with countless palm-sized humanoid patterns. These patterns seem to have been carved with sharp weapons, and each picture has only a few brushstrokes, but it is vivid and expressive, and it can be clearly seen that it is a girl dancing with a sword.
Chen Yi guessed that the shepherdess girls who were going to be captured by the young man in white were practicing these swordsmanship carved on the wall, and immediately looked at them, and sure enough, he found some sword moves that he had used when he saw those girls fighting with apes before.
Because these sword moves were so exquisite, Chen Yi gradually became fascinated, and it wasn't until Bai Wufang woke him up that he realized that he had almost forgotten his business.
Bai Wufang asked with a little smug expression: "Gongzi Chen, you are a master of the Pure Land Temple, you may recognize which school and sect of swordsmanship are on this wall?"
Chen Yi's heart moved, knowing that since she said so, she must know this swordsmanship. If he knew the ins and outs of swordsmanship, it would be very helpful to speculate on the identity of the young man in white, and he immediately made a ashamed gesture to coax Bai Wufang to be happy, and said: "I am lonely and unheard of, but I have never seen this swordsmanship, and I have to ask the white girl for advice." ”
Bai Wufang smiled smugly: "I once listened to my father explain the martial arts of all sects and factions in the world, and when mentioning swordsmanship, I once emphasized a swordsmanship that has been handed down from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the present, which is called 'Yue Nu Swordsmanship'!"
