Chapter 034: Sword Intent
A poor middle-aged scholar in a white shirt was walking on the bluestone road. His steps were small, he didn't walk fast, and he kept stopping.
When he saw someone selling flowers on the roadside, he would smell them; when he saw any fresh food, he would buy it and try it; he would even watch people playing chess. Then, because he did not watch the game in silence, he would be driven away in disgust.
The dark-skinned man just followed him, not daring to disturb the gentleman's interest.
Maonanbei was actually not wrong. The gentleman came down the mountain just to have fun.
The reason why he was unwilling to go back to the mountain was very simple: he just hadn’t had enough fun.
As for accepting a new disciple... compared to traveling and sightseeing, it's just a small matter.
"Sir." The dark man rushed to his side and said softly.
"What's the matter?" asked the gentleman.
"I don't understand why you set such a rule for accepting disciples?"
The rules that the dark man was referring to were naturally jumping off a cliff.
"It was just what I said casually when I was standing on Jieying Peak that day." The gentleman waved his hand, acting very casually.
The dark-skinned
He has been following the Master for many years and has long understood the Master's personality. It seems that the Master has his own reasons for setting such seemingly impossible conditions, he just doesn't want to say it.
But the dark-skinned man just couldn’t figure out how his junior brother managed to jump off the cliff without dying.
This immediately aroused his curiosity.
Mao Nanbei once told Lu Xun that Third Senior Brother loved to cook, but the food he cooked was extremely unpalatable.
In fact, she didn't tell the whole story. The reason why the third brother's cooking was bad was because he loved to innovate and was always tinkering with new dishes on his own.
The third senior brother of the small study loves to explore new things and is also the best at research.
He looked like a farmer and had a rough appearance, but his mind was full of endless curiosity and a lot of new ideas.
Therefore, the dark-skinned man immediately became interested in Lu Xun.
He even thought about capturing his junior fellow apprentice and studying him carefully after returning to the mountain.
When he thought of this, a simple and honest smile appeared on his face.
…
…
At this moment, in the back mountain of the Demon Sect.
Lu Xun had a nightmare.
He woke up from his dream, covered in cold sweat.
"call!"
The night wind blows, and fireflies fly freely outside the house, harmonious and quiet.
"Have you been under too much pressure recently?" Lu Xun rubbed his temples.
But when I think about it carefully...I don’t seem to be under any pressure recently!
He eats well, sleeps well, and a lot of people call him "ancestor" when they meet him . He lives a very comfortable life.
Apart from the slow pace of experience point growth, there aren't many troubles, except that Mao Nanbei is a little difficult to deal with, as I have to satisfy her oral desires every day.
After Lu Xun adjusted his emotions and calmed his mind, he tried to continue sleeping.
As a result, the nightmare began again.
“How the hell is a dream divided into two parts!” Lu Xun woke up again, gasping for breath.
To be exact, this dream is like an endless loop.
As soon as he closed his eyes, a vague shadow chased him until he was killed and woke up from the dream.
The shadow was blurry and Lu Xun couldn't see it clearly.
He didn't think much about it. After all, it was just a dream. It was normal for people to not remember the details of the dream once they woke up.
He didn't even remember how he died. He only remembered that a shadow was chasing him, and then he died.
Many people may have had this experience, clearly realizing that they were dreaming, but they may only remember the beginning and the end of the dream.
After taking two deep breaths, Lu Xun frowned and felt something was wrong.
"This is my dream, I am the master!"
"No, I want to fight back!"
Being killed twice in a row actually aroused Lu Xun's inexplicable desire to win!
As soon as he closed his eyes, the black shadow appeared again.
He thought that in his dream, he was the creator and could do everything, but he was once again defeated and left with nothing.
"Depend on!"
Lu Xun sat up from the bed. He was not a fool, so how could he not know that there must be something fishy going on!
He checked his character attributes, and the character status showed:
——【Sword Intent】!
"Sword intent!?" Lu Xun was a little surprised.
"Was it the sword intention that just killed me in my dream?"
This is a high-end gadget that ordinary swordsmen do not have.
This is a small study in the back mountain. Apart from Lu Xun, there are only Mao Nanbei and the second senior sister on the mountain.
Mao Nanbei used a knife, Lu Xun had seen it on that rainy night.
The two small bells on the wrists can be transformed into two short swords. At that time, the sword energy was so strong that it could kill hundreds of ghosts in seconds!
"So, this sword intent... should be the work of Second Senior Sister?"
Does Second Senior Sister use a sword? Why can’t I see her sword in the bamboo forest?
The most important thing is, why did the second sister do this? Was it special training?
As soon as I thought of this, the game system actually triggered the task.
"【Trigger the mission, Gu Xiaoman's sword training, do you accept it?"
Lu Xun clicked to accept without even thinking about it.
After checking the mission details, he found that the mission was not to ask him to defeat the Second Senior Sister's sword intent, because this was simply unrealistic, but to persist for 30 days while being entangled by the sword intent!
And this sword intent is actually only a tiny part of the second senior sister's tremendous sword intent.
Now it’s good. For a whole month, I couldn’t even sleep well.
"Could it be sudden death?" Lu Xun said with a wry smile.
However, he was reluctant to refuse this mission because the reward was too tempting.
——【Kendo Aptitude +1】!
Lu Xun found it hard to refuse such a rare special attribute, even though... he didn't even have a sword now.
In fact, even if you don’t choose the path of sword cultivation in the future, it won’t hurt to have more special attribute points.
"Tian Chen" follows the principle of "know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles". Even if he does not learn sword in the future, with this little talent in swordsmanship, he will be able to restrain sword cultivators when he encounters them in the future.
Just like his previous life's main character, he obtained [Gun Qualification +1] by chance through a hidden quest. Although he did not take the path of practicing gun, every time he encountered an NPC or player using a gun, he could often deal about 10% more damage!
As for what he practices with his big trumpet?
What we practice is a stick, a big stick.
