Volume 2: A sudden change in the prison, a red-clothed man goes out to find a thief Chapter 236: Dugu Bufu's Spiritual Adventure
Whether Li Si is a boy or a girl, Dugu Bufu has been thinking about this question ever since he came back from shopping in the small town that day.
This made him lose his appetite and unable to sleep every day, and even seemed "absent-minded" when instructing Li Si in swordsmanship.
All I was thinking about was how to find out the truth from Li Si.
In the past, no matter how handsome Li Si was, he would not have such doubts. After all, there were many handsome men in the martial arts world, and even though Li Si was an extreme case among them, he still had an Adam's apple and a flat chest, which was not related to a woman anyway.
But after seeing Li Sisi's appearance, Dugu Bufu could no longer confirm this fact. Because Li Sisi had no Adam's apple (thanks to Banjiexian), and her chest also had a slight bulge (padded with something specially made by Banjiexian).
No matter what, Dugu Bufu found it hard to believe that a woman like that could be disguised as a man.
On the contrary, it would be more convincing to say that Li Si was actually a woman in disguise.
This is why Dugu Bufu is so conflicted. His inherent ideas have been almost completely overturned.
But it was impossible for him to really spy on Li Si to verify his thoughts, because whether out of friendship or out of his own conscience, he would not do such a despicable thing.
What if he asked Li Si directly? Thinking of the murderous look in Li Si's eyes when he mentioned Li Sisi, Dugu Bufu finally gave up the idea for the time being. He didn't want to be carried back to Huan Qingshan again.
In this case, he could only observe secretly for now.
What to observe? Dugu Bufu thought about it briefly and roughly chose three directions: one is to observe Li Si's daily behavior habits, the second is to observe Li Si's dress and appearance, and the third is to observe Li Si's subconscious movements and unconscious expressions.
If Li Si was really a woman, then she would definitely be slightly different from ordinary men in these three aspects.
This kind of observation lasted for several days, until even Li Si and Shu Hunu noticed something was wrong.
…
Dugu Bufu has been acting very strange lately; both Li Si and Shu Hunu think so.
What is so strange specifically? If we go into detail, it is roughly the following points.
First of all, Dugu Bufu always stared at Li Si, whether it was when he got up early to wash, when he was eating, or when he was resting and chatting. When Li Si couldn't stand being stared at and asked him what he was looking at, he would quickly retract his gaze and then say nothing.
Secondly, whether there was something going on or not, Dugu Bufu would always stay by Li Si's side. It was as if he had nothing to do. He would stay by Li Si's side when he was drinking tea, when he was eating snacks, and when he was practicing internal energy. He would not leave until he annoyed Li Si.
Furthermore, when practicing swordplay, Dugu Bufu would always look at Li Si's body intentionally or unintentionally. Li Si didn't care much about this, after all, it was impossible not to watch from the side when teaching swordplay. But the tiger girl was extremely alert, because she found that Dugu Bufu always stared at a few places, one was the chest, one was the waist and back, and one was the thigh. Waist and back and thigh, you said you wanted to see Li Si's strength skills, but why do you always look at his chest, do you use that to wield the sword?
Shu Hu Nu really wanted to grab Dugu Bufu and ask him, but considering the relationship between them, she held back and didn't say anything.
On this day, Li Si was practicing sword again, and Dugu Bufu stood beside him, instructing him on how to draw the sword.
It is true that Li Si has read many sword manuals, but when it comes to using the sword, he is still a novice.
He had fiddled with this thing no more than ten times since he started practicing martial arts, which made his appearance always a little awkward when he drew or put away the sword.
"Raise your hand higher." Dugu Bufu stood behind Li Si, looked at Li Si's sword stance and spoke, then stretched out his hand and lifted Li Si's wrist.
It felt a little cool and smooth to the touch, which made Dugu Bufu slightly distracted again, and he subconsciously glanced at Li Si's chest.
She's very flat and doesn't look like a woman. Am I really overthinking it?
Thinking of this, Dugu Bufu slowly frowned again.
The tiger girl who was sitting next to him couldn't stand it anymore. She took a deep breath, stood up, walked to Dugu , raised her hand and took away his hand on Li Si's hand and said.
"Mr. Dugu, I can teach you the basics. You can take a rest first."
"Ah, it's okay..." Dugu Bufu came back to his senses and was about to say that he was not tired. But the next moment, he saw the gloomy face of the tiger girl, which was almost gloomy enough to drip water.
He subconsciously took a step back and hesitated for a while, then he nodded sincerely and said.
"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Shuhu."
After saying that, he retreated to the side of the yard and sat down.
"What's wrong?" Li Si looked at the tiger girl in confusion and asked, "Why do you seem so angry all of a sudden?"
"It's none of your business, just focus on practicing your sword skills!" The tiger girl replied rudely, while at the same time she was blaming Li Si in her heart for being a fool who didn't know how to be on guard when someone took advantage of him.
Frightened to death, Li Si practiced sword skills even harder. He thought it was because of his stupidity that Shuhu girl got angry.
On the other side, Dugu Bufu, who was sitting under the eaves, sighed slowly.
He was very distressed because after observing for a few days, he found that Li Si's behavior and dress were no different from ordinary men, even more unkempt and extravagant. Obviously, this was why he had never thought that Li Si might be a woman.
Although he could not forget the appearance of Li Sisi, he could not deny the facts before him.
Maybe I'm really worrying too much?
Dugu stopped thinking like this and shook his head helplessly, not planning to think about it anymore.
He felt that during this period of time, he had too many distracting thoughts in his mind, and if this continued, it might affect his kendo practice.
It is better to get rid of these things as early as possible so that your mind is not distracted and your thoughts can flow clearly.
Thinking of this, Dugu Bufu seemed to feel a lot more relaxed. He let out a long breath and for a moment he felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
This feeling lasted until the evening, when Li Si and Shu Hunu finished practicing sword and sat back in the yard.
"call!"
After taking a gulp of cold water, Li Si put down the tea bowl, wiped the sweat from his forehead, slumped to the ground and pulled at his collar while speaking.
"The weather is really getting hotter and hotter."
Through his pulled up collar, you can see several strips of cloth tied around his chest.
Oh, don't get me wrong, this is nothing special, just some ordinary white cloth.
Talking about their origin, we have to talk about the fight between Li Si and the old monk some time ago.
When applying medicine on his buttocks, Li Si discovered that he was also injured on his back. It was a cut that was as long as a palm, probably left after crashing into a tree.
So he wrapped a few rounds of white cloth around his chest as a bandage.
Because the cut is quite big, it hasn't healed yet and it's always inconvenient for me to move around normally.
But Dugu Bufu had no idea about this. He listened to Li Si's complaints and glanced at Li Si indifferently.
Then he saw the strips of cloth.
God has mercy on him. Who knows what kind of mental shock Dugu Bufu experienced at that moment.
His eyes suddenly widened, and his mind, which had finally calmed down, became a mess again.
So, what is that?
He stared blankly at Li Si pulling at his collar with his hands, and the corners of his eyes twitched three times in succession.
Wrap, wrap cloth?
