The devil relies on the cat

Chapter 14 Girls Know Swords?
"Good sword, really good sword!" Looking at the sharp edge of the knife, Jiujiu was full of praise when he recalled the ruthlessness and quickness of the young man's strike.

"Could it be that girls also understand swords?" The young man's decadent eyes are like stars in the night, looking at Jiujiu can sparkle a little light.

"Hehe, I understand a little, I understand a little." Jiujiu smiled shyly and mysteriously.

What a joke, in the past she only slept and ate, and it was rare for her to see her master and senior brother practice swords when she passed by the backyard.Understand?Probably, apart from being able to distinguish which sword is more beautiful and which one I like more with Jiujiu's aesthetics, I have no other cognition.
Kui Jiujiu still felt embarrassed and couldn't exaggerate too much, but she didn't expect that if she released the water at this point, it would really wipe out the glimmer of hope that the boy had finally raised.

"Oh, I just understand a little bit. Then you don't know anything after all." After speaking, the young man put away the sword in disappointment and put it back into the scabbard.

"Hey, hey, what are you talking about! Who doesn't understand? After all, my master and senior brother are all masters of swordsmanship, and I have practiced more than you even if I've heard it by ear!" Immediately became impatient.

"Are you a master? How tall is it?" The young man turned around, taking advantage of the shining moonlight and the weak light on the bullock cart, and looked at Bai Jiujiu for the first time.

All she saw was her coarse clothes, scattered and ragged.Apparently the family was struggling.Looking at her swollen face, it should be because of being beaten too much.The more you look at it, the less it looks like a piece of material protected by a master.Only the intact skin on the neck can prove that this girl is indeed a delicate skin.Oh, and those fingers, even though they were dirty and disfigured, they were also pointed and quite delicate.

Really... There is an expert master and an expert brother?The boy muttered in his heart.

"What are you looking at! Have you never seen a beautiful woman! Have you never seen a down-and-out beautiful woman?"

Seeing the boy looking at him suspiciously, Jiujiu felt even more dissatisfied.What if it's dirty?All this is not my fault!So I yelled back immediately.

Seeing her domineering appearance, she felt more and more like a truth teller.The boy smiled.

"Then how good is your master and brother? Can you take me to meet them?"

"Seeing them? Don't you see that it's because I got separated from them that I became this sloppy?" Jiujiu cursed, how stupid this person must be.If master and senior brother were by his side, would he have made his life so miserable?
"Uh..." the young man choked.A look of disappointment climbed back to the face that had only ignited hope once more, and said awkwardly: "Then be careful on the road, I still have to leave first."

"Hey, where are you going? Let's go together if you drop by." Jiujiu hurriedly called to him.

This person is not familiar with the place, and finally met someone with strong martial arts, how could he let him go so easily.Immediately ran up two steps, and grabbed the boy's clothes.

The young man turned around and said, "It's not on the way. I'm going to a far, far place to learn from a teacher." As he said this, he wanted to let go of the little hand that was holding on to his clothes tightly.

"Apprenticeship? Learning swordsmanship?" Jiujiu didn't let go, and if the one was let go, he used the other to grab it. In short, he just didn't let go.

Seeing the boy nodding, he hurriedly said, "I'll teach, I'll teach you!"

"You?" The boy looked at her suspiciously.

"That's right. Don't think I'm powerless to protect myself, it's just because I'm weak and not suitable for sword practice. As for those methods and tricks, the master taught me a lot. Besides, I was watching when my brother practiced sword. "

Although there was a lot of water in these words, Bai Jiujiu still said it sincerely.I really hesitated what a young man said.

Although he was sixteen years old, apart from occasionally going out to hunt with his father, or going to a famous temple in the suburbs to offer incense in the car of his family members, this was the first time he went out alone.

When it comes to preparation, it seems that there is nothing but a stack of bank notes in his arms.Not to mention where to go to learn from teachers.

Looking back at that day, although it was already midnight, the night was very good tonight, and even the guards above the city gate were in high spirits, patrolling back and forth energetically.

The young man thought over and over again, and felt that there was no hope of going out of the city now, so why not just play with Bai Jiujiu.If she really has a few brushes, then she has found a treasure.If she was completely playing tricks, then I would just play a game with her to pass the time.So said.

"It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day. You can teach me now."

"Now? Okay, okay." Bai Jiujiu was wondering how to urge him to start construction as soon as possible, and now seeing him offer it, he was immediately overjoyed.He said while pulling the rope leading the bullock cart.

"Come on, it's inconvenient for people to come and go here, let's go to that forest to practice."

People come and go?The young man is silent.This girl is too exaggerated.Although the shops on this street are next to each other, it is midnight now, except for a few big gambling houses and brothels that are still lit, let alone people, not even a dog barking.Why do people come and go, do you think that the people in this city are like you, who like to go to the market with an ox cart in the middle of the night?What if I hadn't happened to pass by and saw you fell into the hands of three street thugs!
The boy gave her a contemptuous look.This girl is really ignorant, she is even more foolish than doing things herself!

Then follow Bai Jiujiu to raise her finger casually to look, wow, I almost jumped!
"Why are you going there?"

Looking around the entire capital of Qinghong Kingdom, apart from the palace being built next to the mountain, the buildings within the city gate seem to be the Kang Mansion, which is next to a small forest that doesn't look like a mountain, nor a hill like a hill.And walking through the forest is the backyard of Kang Mansion.It just so happened that a certain boy left there not long ago.

"Look how forgetful you are at such a young age!" Bai Jiujiu lost the look that you were an idiot, and explained again, "Don't underestimate that forest. Although the road is far away and it may be hard to walk there, it But it is a good place to practice swords."

The young man sneered, "I've never heard of sword practice that pays attention to the place. Besides, that place is just an ordinary forest under an ordinary hill."

"Normal? Oh, let's just say that you seem to be working hard and striving for improvement. Why can't you practice swords well! It turns out that you are just practicing deadly." Jiujiu showed a look like this, looking regretfully Looking at the boy, he shook his head.

After being told by her, the young man suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment when he thought about those masters he had hired at a high price.He dismissed it lazily, turned his head to look at Bai Jiujiu and said, "You really know how to teach?"

"Nonsense, anyway, I am also the apprentice of the Hermit Master. Why do you always doubt me? Besides, my master and senior brother love me so much, I am afraid they will come here before I teach you a few days. The worst is I will intercede for you, and let you also worship under my master."

"Well, I hope everything is as you said." The young man looked again at the closed city gate not far away, and then at the dense and familiar forest.With a feeling of taking a gamble, I made a decision.
