Chapter 261 A Promise
Xiao Zhu rushed towards Lu Yufei and threw herself into his arms.
Lu Yu opened his arms calmly and let her lean on his chest, but he didn't have too much desire in his heart, only the joy of reuniting after a long separation.
It was not just a reunion after a long separation, in a sense, it could be regarded as surviving a disaster.
The two hugged each other silently for a while, and Xiao Zhu suddenly realized that this action seemed a little inappropriate. Two red clouds floated on her face. She broke away from Lu Yu's arms with some embarrassment and stammered: "Young... Young Master, I'm sorry... I was anxious and lost my composure..."
Lu Yu smiled and looked at her blushing face, gently stroking her little head: "No need to say these things, I have missed you these days!"
Xiao Zhu's pretty face suddenly became more flushed, but her heart was as sweet as honey.
Lu Yu leaned down and picked up the long sword that Xiao Zhu had just dropped on the ground. He found that it was just an ordinary sword used by the disciples of the clan for practice, and the blade was not even sharpened.
"I saw you practicing sword just now. Who taught you? You look quite good!" He said with a smile.
Xiao Zhu lowered his head in embarrassment.
"No one taught me... When the young master was not in the house, Xiaozhu had nothing to do. When I was bored, I remembered the scene when the young master practiced sword, so I practiced by myself like the young master in the past... In fact, I practiced blindly by myself, which made the young master laugh..."
Lu Yu's eyes lit up: "Just groping alone, you have reached such a level, which is quite good. Even the children in the martial arts hall of the clan are probably not as good as you! I didn't expect that you are a genius in cultivation!"
Xiaozhu's face became more embarrassed: "In fact, it can't be considered as groping alone... There is one thing that Xiaozhu wants to apologize to the young master. In fact, when cleaning this sword room, Xiaozhu often read the sword annotations made by the young master in the past... Xiaozhu read the classics in the sword room without the young master's consent. Please punish me!"
"Why do you suddenly want to practice?" Lu Yu asked curiously
In fact, Xiaozhu has always been in charge of cleaning the sword room here. If she wants to read the books in the sword room, she has the opportunity at any time. If she wants to practice in the past, Lu Yu will not discover her talent for practice now.
Xiaozhu lowered her head and was silent for a moment before saying: "That's because... after the young master was not in the mansion, Xiaozhu suddenly found that she was useless and could not help with anything. There were so many things at home, but Xiaozhu could not help with anything, and she was even worse than Huzi..."
Huzi was Lu Xiaohu. When he was injured by Xiang Chen during the four counties' martial arts competition, Lu Yu resolutely gave up the competition and treated his injuries, so that he understood the way of life and then realized the realm of the initial arrival of the Tao heart.
After Lu Yu's treatment, Lu Xiaohu was finally safe and sound. After this disaster, he seemed to have matured a lot and showed a more amazing talent in practice. It can be predicted that in the near future, he will become another mainstay of the Lu family.
Even when Lu Yu was on Yudie Peak, Lu Yuanshan had mentioned this in a letter to him, saying that Lu Xiaohu was talented and would become a great man in the future, and hoped that Lu Yu could plan a way out for him. The implication was to ask Lu Yu if there was a way to recruit him into the Dali Sword Sect. Lu Yu said at the time that he would consider it carefully.
Now it seems that with Lu Xiaohu's current strength, it may be difficult to recruit him into the Dali Sword Sect. It is a good choice to put him in the Wanhe Chamber of Commerce as a reserve disciple.
"Xiaozhu doesn't want to be like this, and doesn't want to be a useless person. Xiaozhu wants to continue to serve the Lu family... serve the young master..." Xiaozhu continued in an inaudible voice.
Lu Yu truly felt her attachment and reluctance to him, and couldn't help but feel moved.
"In that case, I will teach you a set of exercises. As long as you practice diligently according to the exercises I teach, you will definitely have great potential in the future!"
As he said this, Lu Yu connected his mind to the medical classics in his sea of consciousness and began to scan Xiao Zhu's body. Combining the condition of her meridians, he created a set of perfect Qi circulation techniques for her on the spot.
Combined with Lu Yu's own experience, such a set of Qi circulation techniques was soon summarized. Lu Yu carefully taught it to Xiao Zhu, without reservation, and even took the initiative to open up her blocked meridians.
Xiao Zhu practiced according to the method taught by Lu Yu, and suddenly a surge of primitive power seemed to awaken in her body, and she was shocked.
"Master, this technique is too powerful! I think even the most advanced technique in the family, the Dragon Catching Technique, is not as powerful as this one... What kind of technique is this?"
Lu Yu smiled and said, "This is a technique that belongs to you. If you like, just call it 'Xiao Zhu's Heart Technique'..."
Xiao Zhu blushed and thought that Lu Yu was teasing her. She thought that this was probably a high-level technique that he learned in the Dali Sword Sect. No matter which sect or school, high-level techniques are unique skills that cannot be passed on lightly. For example, the Dragon Catching Technique of the Lu family must be approved by the elders of the clan before it can be learned.
The set of skills that the young master passed on to her was obviously much more powerful than the Dragon Capturing Skill. Maybe he had violated the sect rules because of this, but even so, he still passed this set of skills to her...
"Young master, Xiaozhu is just a maid. How could you pass on such an important skill to Xiaozhu?"
Xiaozhu complained, but in fact, her heart was full of joy and emotion. She secretly made up her mind to keep this secret for the young master and never let him suffer punishment.
She never thought that what Lu Yu said was actually the truth.
"No matter how important the skills are, how can they be as important as you? Besides, what's wrong with being a maid? There are also very powerful maids!"
When Lu Yu said this, he couldn't help but think of Chu Hongling in his heart.
If one day he succeeded in his cultivation and became a powerful figure like Yudie Zhenren, and Xiaozhu became like Chu Hongling, not only powerful, but also equivalent to his incarnation and spokesperson, it would seem to be a very wonderful thing if he thought about it carefully.
"Master, if Xiao Zhu becomes very powerful, is it possible for her to be with you again?" Xiao Zhu asked cautiously.
Although Lu Yu has returned, she also knows that Lu Yu's identity is completely different now, and it is impossible for him to stay in the Lu family for a long time. The distance between the two seems to have become extremely far.
"Of course!"
Lu Yu said without hesitation: "As long as you practice diligently, I believe we will meet again soon!"
"Really?" Xiao Zhu said happily.
Lu Yu sighed softly: "To be honest, I am very short of manpower around me now, and I wish I could transfer you to my side as soon as possible, but the time is not ripe yet, so you stay at home for the time being and wait for my news!"
Xiao Zhu nodded, and silently made up her mind in her heart that from today on, she must practice hard and never waste a bit of time on other things, and strive to be able to return to the master's side as soon as possible.
"Then... it's a deal!"
