Chapter 110 People Will Be Hungry if They Don’t Eat
Last day.
In the afternoon.
The quiet atmosphere in the room seemed to be ignited by the sun, becoming noisy in the hazy light, rising and falling in the overlapping shadows.
Wu Yingxue is leaving. After recovering from her injuries, she is ready to find out the truth.
So she is packing her belongings.
It's just packing, but actually there isn't much that needs to be brought.
She had very few belongings. After all, it was an accident when she fell into Xu's house.
"No more?"
After the girl was busy for a while, she put a camouflage on her spear so that it would no longer look conspicuous. She stood there and looked at the empty room, feeling a little dazed for a moment.
The cicada's neighing is coming to an end.
The scorching sunlight split the shadows.
The 16-year-old girl stood in the room where she had lived for nearly two months.
Suddenly, I had a strong illusion that I was in another world.
Her past spanned 16 years, which was wonderful in the eyes of ordinary people and a luxury that ordinary people dreamed of. However, after living in Qingniu Town for two months, Wu Yingxue felt that such a life had passed for a long time.
It seems that it is not two months, but a year, or even longer.
"I'm still a little bit reluctant for some reason..."
The girl murmured to herself, then closed the door and window. When she opened it again, her clothes had been changed.
The original red and white robe was too conspicuous. If she wore it directly back, the girl could be sure that her whereabouts would be discovered by officials before long.
therefore.
She specifically asked Xu Xi to find some clothes.
for her to disguise.
"The only thing left is time." Wu Yingxue, who had finished dressing up, looked sideways at the scorching sun outside the window.
Wu Yingxue was preparing to leave at night. The dark and gloomy environment was more conducive to movement and could greatly reduce the possibility of being seen by people in the town.
At the same time, it can also conceal the fact that she came from the Xu family.
only.
There is still a short period of time before the sun sets and night completely covers the sky.
What should we do to pass this boring time?
The girl didn’t know.
She carried a long gun on her back, picked up a small baggage, pushed open the wooden door of the room for the last time, and stepped forward with light steps across the old wooden threshold full of scratches from time.
"call--!"
"call--!"
The location corresponding to the door is an open practice area in the courtyard.
Xu Xi was still standing in the scorching sunshine as usual, ignoring the cold and heat, ignoring the clouds and sunshine, and punched in the same stance every day.
Sweat dripped, and the punches were fierce.
Every punch, every roar of blood made the air blur and twist, like a vigorous heart beating loudly.
"Sir's boxing skills are more profound..."
Wu Yingxue sighed in her heart.
Confusion flashed across his face.
During this period, she had been studying with Xu Xi, but for some reason, the distance between her and Xu Xi became wider and wider.
It was a bizarre growth that was neither scientific nor martial arts.
It's as if Xu Xi is the protagonist in a novel.
As soon as you start practicing martial arts, your martial arts level will slowly rise.
"How is that possible?" Wu Yingxue laughed at her own thoughts.
She temporarily put down her spear and baggage and sat on the threshold of the room. The blazing sunshine was just blocked by the eaves, providing the girl with a shaded place.
A young princess who doesn't know how to pass her time.
Made the same choice he made during his recovery period.
Watch Xu Xi’s martial arts training process.
The green bricks and red tiles, cornices and dark green unknown plants climb all over the walls, creating an extremely quiet atmosphere at the intersection of summer and autumn.
The 16-year-old girl just watched like this, quietly watching Xu Xie's punches and looking at the dark mountains in the distance.
That was an indescribable let-down.
Completely forget about the passage of time.
After a long time, the scorching sunshine had a tendency to diminish, and the sky was no longer so bright. The girl finally couldn't help asking about the confusion in her heart.
If she doesn't ask now, she may not have a chance when she leaves Qingniu Town.
"Sir, you practice boxing like this every day, don't you really feel tired? I have never seen you relax and rest for a day."
Faced with Wu Yingxue's inquiry.
Xu Xi paused slightly, looked up at the sunset, and slowly retracted his fist.
His answer was simple: "Of course I will be tired."
"Huh?"
The too straightforward answer seemed to be far beyond the girl's expectations, and her face showed a look of astonishment.
She originally thought that the answer given by a hard-working warrior like Xu Xi would be the classic "no hardship, no tiredness" and "perseverance is more important than anything else".
However.
Xu Xi's answer overturned Wu Yingxue's conjecture.
He stood there, constantly adjusting his surging Qi and blood, his breath resonating with his heart, completing the cycle bit by bit, and answered the girl:
“If you don’t eat, you will be hungry.”
"If you don't drink water, you will be thirsty."
"People will get cold if they don't wear clothes."
"Similarly, if I practice boxing every day, I will feel tired, hard and tortured."
"No one is perfect, without shortcomings and mistakes, and without fear of hard work and fatigue. People like that don't exist, at least not me."
Call it a day.
calm.
Take a deep breath.
Xu Xi finished sorting out his energy and blood, then turned to look at Wu Yingxue sitting on the threshold.
He never felt that he was a saint, nor did he feel the need to boast.
From the beginning to the end, Xu Xi thought that he was an ordinary person, but he was slightly luckier and could enjoy the good fortune of his sister, disciples, and teachers.
But Xu Xi’s performance and Xu Xi’s words.
But Wu Yingxue fell into a long silence.
The light of the setting sun exhausted its last strength, and the sun slowly fell into the distant skyline. Golden ripples appeared at the junction, which were the bitter waves in the girl's heart.
She felt that compared with Xu Xi, her previous thinking was too naive and simple.
It was so unbearable to look back.
She grew up in the royal palace. King Dingyuan named her Yingxue, which means that he hopes that the girl will be as quiet and beautiful as soft snow.
But the development of things is often not what people want.
Contrary to her name, the girl's personality is as passionate as fire. She has disliked female celebrities since she was a child, and only loves martial arts and chivalrous novels. She dreams of becoming a female knight or female general who protects the country and the people.
Peaceful life in the Imperial Capital.
The many conveniences of being a princess.
A carefree experience since childhood.
Under the mutual influence of various factors, Wu Yingxue's understanding of the world was very shallow, and it was only divided into pure humans and monsters.
She felt that Daqian was good and protected all races.
She felt that demons were bad and that the Hundred Thousand Mountains threatened people's lives.
She dreamed that she could become the chivalrous woman in the novel, cut off hundreds of thousands of mountains with one sword, and save the common people from fire and water.
But these...
"They are all one-sided and ignorant ideas."
After the sunset, the full moon rises.
The bright moonlight poured down on the earth, Wu Yingxue stood up from the threshold, once again shouldered the spear and lifted the baggage.
"If it hadn't been for this attack, if it hadn't been for your teachings, perhaps I would never have been able to discover the truth for the rest of my life."
"thank you."
