Chapter 20 Stabbing Sword
"A girl named Xianxian?"
Boss Cao thought for a while and finally shook his head.
Then, he asked some other questions, but all yielded no results. Li Miao had no choice but to walk out of Yuelai Inn with a disappointed mood.
Wait...
It can be seen from that letter that the relationship between Li Sanshui and the woman named 'Xianxian' is obviously somewhat unusual. As good friends, Ji Gang and Zhang Feng might know something...
Thinking like this, Li Miao's mind became active again.
But in the next second, the joyful mood dropped again.
He didn't know where the two of them lived...
He forgot to ask last time, which meant that he didn't know where to look if he wanted to find those two people, so he could only wait for them to come to his door.
Now that the clues from the 'Xianxian' girl have been temporarily cut off, what should I do next?
Stand still and stay in Zhe Mansion as before, waiting for Ji Gang and Zhang Feng to come to see if they can find some information about the 'Xianxian' girl?
Or, just be more decisive and attack the person who is following you directly to break the situation?
Li Miao is more inclined to this.
But, what should we do?
With this in mind, I was a little distracted when I was fishing at work in the afternoon.
Until I returned to my small courtyard after get off work, I still didn’t think of any safe way.
The moment he opened the door and saw Lin Daier, an idea suddenly flashed through Li Miao's mind.
How could he forget that this person exists...
So, with a smile on her face, she came to Lin Daier and said flatteringly and flatteringly: "Miss Lin, what do you want to eat tonight?"
Lin Dai'er raised her head and looked at him, and said in a neutral tone: "You smile like this, you are either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Ahem... Actually, it's nothing. I just want to ask Miss Lin for a small favor."
With that said, Li Miao told Lin Daier his plan.
Under Li Miao's expectant gaze, Lin Daier thought about it for a moment and finally nodded her head slightly.
Li Miao was immediately overjoyed and quickly expressed his thanks and flattery.
"But..."
At this time, Lin Daier changed the subject: "Now I am at a critical moment of healing. I will try my best not to do anything in the past few days, so..."
Hearing this, Li Miao said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, as long as you agree, it doesn't make much difference whether it's a few days earlier or a few days later."
……
In the next few days, Li Miao stayed quietly in Zhe's Mansion and never left Zhe's Mansion again.
Before dawn, under the watchful eye of Lin Daier, I went to work and fished and read books about sages during the day, and at night, I cooked the ingredients brought by the bun-faced maid.
Ever since Zhe Xinyi had dinner at his place, she and the bun-faced maid would appear in his small courtyard every evening. She no longer had to bother the bun-faced maid to deliver the cooked dinner to her study.<
/p>
However, when the bun-faced maid comes over, she always brings a variety of ingredients, which diversifies the recipes of Li Miao and Lin Daier.
On this day, the sky was still completely bright, just like in the past, Li Miao and Lin Daier had already appeared in the small courtyard.
"If I hold on a little longer, it will be almost a quarter of an hour."
Hearing Lin Daier's words, Li Miao, who was trying to hold on, was shocked. He gritted his teeth and insisted on walking in a standard horse stance. The two bowls on his legs slowly became calm again.<
/p>
Then, some time passed.
Tick tock!
A bean-sized drop of sweat fell from Li Miao's forehead, and then dripped to the ground.
"Isn't it enough for a quarter of an hour?" Li Miao looked at Zhe Xinyi with difficulty.
A little sweat dripped into his eyes, and his eyelids trembled a few times. It was really uncomfortable, but Li Miao did not dare to make any big movements, for fear of causing the two bowls on his legs to fall, thus defeating all his previous efforts.
Lin Daier said: "There's still a little bit left, just hold on for a while."
Li Miao continued to grit his teeth and persist.
Some time has passed again.
"This should be enough for a quarter of an hour, right?"
"There's still a little bit left, just hold on a little longer."
"This doesn't make sense. This quarter of an hour shouldn't be that long."
Li Miao looked at Lin Daier with more or less suspicion: "You are not lying to me, are you? In fact, a quarter of an hour has passed."
Lin Daier said calmly: "What's the benefit of me lying to you?"
Li Miao was startled. Indeed, Lin Daier had no reason to lie to him. Maybe it was not even a quarter of an hour. After all, in his current state, even one second felt much slower than usual.
, the sense of time is not very accurate.
I have no choice but to grit my teeth and persevere.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Li Miao can't survive, really can't survive!
Just as the two bowls were about to fall from her lap, Lin Daier's heavenly voice finally sounded.
"Okay, that's enough for a quarter of an hour."
Hearing this, Li Miao was immediately relieved. He didn't care about the two shaky bowls placed on his lap and quickly stood up straight.
Lin Daier on the side fished it out casually and caught the two bowls skillfully.
After some beating and massaging, the numb thighs finally recovered a little and stopped shaking so badly.
"Huh..."
Li Miao let out a breath, then looked at Lin Dai'er, unable to hold back the joy in her heart, and said: "Miss Lin, I can now stand on my feet for a quarter of an hour without dropping the two bowls.
Can I start learning swordsmanship from you?"
Lin Daier nodded lightly, and then threw the wooden sword she had already prepared towards Li Miao.
Li Miao took it and looked at it carefully, knowing that Lin Daier must have made it specially for him in the past few days. It can be seen from this wooden sword that she was intentional.
With a slight warmth in his heart, Li Miao thanked Lin Daier: "Thank you very much."
Lin Daier said calmly: "You don't have to say thank you to me. I'm just a little bored on weekdays and just do whatever I want."
Li Miao smiled and said nothing.
Next, Lin Daier began to teach Li Miao swordsmanship.
Thanks to the golden sore medicine Lin Dai'er gave Li Miao, the wound on Li Miao's left shoulder has healed very quickly in the past few days. It is almost completely healed and will not have any impact on his sword practice.
I saw Lin Daier saying: "Now stab me with the wooden sword in your hand and show me."
So, Li Miao clenched the wooden sword in his hand and stabbed forward with force.
Lin Daier frowned and said: "You used too much force. The main thing to focus on when drawing a sword is the combination of speed and skill, not the harder the better, and then stab the sword again."
Li Miao thrust out another sword. This sword was deliberately much less powerful than the one just now.
"The strength was suddenly reduced too much. The sword thrust out like this has no lethality at all. Increase the strength and stab the sword again."
Next, Li Miao stabbed out many swords in succession, and finally one sword was of acceptable strength.
"Hmm."
Chapter completed!
