Pirate Alliance

"Qiubai... what kind of person is he?"

Although Ryoma changed the final itinerary because of a temporary decision, to be honest, he didn't have a deep understanding of Qiubai, and his behavior was impulsive.

At this time, Qiu Bai had been chopping down stones of different heights, shorts, fats and thins for three days in a row. To be honest, the progress of his cultivation was not so smooth. At the beginning, this slow progress even made him feel anxious like a "wow" under the sun exposed to the high temperature. After all, the time of the dragon horse was extremely limited, but later he recovered to the current state. This calm is like "a clear spring" on the top of a snow-capped mountain.

There are natural reasons for his change of mind.

Because in the front and back of the port town, Ryoma's house is "inaccessible". There are only three people from beginning to end, including him. Qiubai is working on iron and his self-evaluation is estimated to be meaningless, so it can be done here. Ain was the only one who answered Ryoma.

Stand alone.

It is more appropriate to use these four words to describe Qiubai's words, but Ain obviously does not want to use such a word with a positive meaning to describe him.

Ain was sitting on a chair not far away, so he could just watch the light flowing through Qiubai. Objectively speaking, Qiubai was a bit of a wind, some dreamed, sometimes crazy, sometimes lost, and sometimes he sang...

After rejecting the words maverick, Ain changed to a more pleasing statement:

"Qiubai, it's probably a... 'nerve'."

She has enough to save face, at least she didn't say "illness", didn't she?

"…"

Ryoma's complexion is not white, but his hoofs are now facing west. He obviously did not expect to hear such a magical comment from Qiubai's companions.

In fact, Qiu Bai didn't know about such a thing. He thought he had always maintained a positive image, but he didn't think that he was already 5 degrees crooked to the ground.

After all, the essence of a person will always be exposed to the people around him inadvertently.

Qiubai was still engrossed in chopping rocks. At this time, he already fully understood what Longma had said before... He felt and listened to all things, which stunned Qiubai. At first, he thought those words were very tall. Yes, but if you think about it, isn't that the case?

Ryoma said such a thing, the impossible is to ask for more concentration before the sword, to achieve the multiple integration of eyes, ears, heart, body, mind, and soul, and to use the sword to break the target in the moment of seeking the flaw. .

However, after changing the simple statement, it does not mean that the practice is easy. The difficulty of this matter is that the so-called practice relies on a rather illusory and unmeasured feeling.

What angle, what strength, and when to use the knife to achieve the best effect is extremely dependent on experience, and Qiubai obviously lacks such experience.

In the past three days, he has occasionally been able to "break in two" cleanly and effortlessly, but the number of times is very rare, the probability is almost negligible, a bit like a blind cat meets a dead mouse, but three days later, he Really starting to catch that feeling.

As for getting rid of the initial state of anxiety, it was because he figured it out later... No matter what he does, greed is the worst state of mind.

It was quite "accidental" to meet a swordsman like Longma and get the opportunity to learn, and I was very fortunate. Maybe the two sides will not get along for a long time, but there is no need to be too obsessive about it. Learning a little bit more from each other is a bonus.

As for wanting to learn everything you want to learn within a month, or even clinging to the illusory "domineering", it's actually a bit ridiculous. No matter how talented people are, there will be limits. Some things are not short-term. can learn.

After thinking about this, Qiu Bai's mentality naturally relaxed.

Expressed in a tone of indifference, Longma's life has come to an end, and Qiubai's journey has just begun. Even if he loses the current opportunity, there will be new Longma waiting for him on the sea in the future. Whether the attitude of the opponent is pro or enemy, he can get new learning opportunities.

This is what Qiu Bai pursued step by step. Before, his attitude was a little lost and eager, but fortunately, he adjusted it in time.

Qiubai no longer asked for anything, but continued to practice step by step, and time passed so peacefully.

More than 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Ryoma's physical condition has declined at a speed visible to the naked eye. This is the so-called "end of time".

"How's it going?" Ryoma asked Qiu Bai, who was still busy, holding the knife. He was already having some inconvenience.

"I've already caught what I'm taking with you, but it's still far from what you said about using only half of the power. As for folding the power in half..." Qiubai shook his head, even if he did have that day, Longma would definitely see it Not anymore.

"Compared to the technical improvement, I feel that my wrist strength has improved faster."

Then Qiubai made an inappropriate joke.

"However, your body..."

To be honest, watching a person aging is definitely not a good experience, it will only make people feel that life is irresistible... Maybe using Ain's ability can prolong Ryoma's life for a while, but Qiubai didn't mention this. thing.

The "regressive fruit" of the superhuman system can even restore Ryoma to its peak strength...

Qiubai's silence was definitely not for reasons of confidentiality, but because he knew that Ain should have already told Ryoma about this matter in person, but the state of the other party at this time could show that he rejected such a proposal... Whether it is a swordsman or other, the so-called strong must have a strong heart, trying to free themselves from the suffocation of life, for them, it is the fear of death, which is the greatest cowardice and failure, so Longma disdains it.

Even if his life was extended for a while, Ryoma would lose his dignity as a swordsman—that was something he would never accept.

But the temptation to return to the top is definitely not trivial, but Ryoma still chose to refuse, so Qiubai himself felt respect and even admiration for his choice.

"I still have some time, so come with me." Ryoma said suddenly.

"...?" Qiu Bai was a little confused.

"Since I met you, in fact, I haven't given you anything substantial, including your current practice... From beginning to end, what you have done is just a test of your xinxing, in order to observe whether you have further study. Qualifications." Ryoma said.

Qiubai blinked his eyes, and after listening to Duan said, he suddenly understood some things that were inconsistent with him... No wonder he always felt that things went too smoothly at first, and later practice was too simple and monotonous, although practice is beneficial Yes and he is improving, but he feels a little awkward.

Now this sense of disobedience is finally understood. It turned out to be the legendary test.

Actually, if you think about it carefully, this is also very easy to understand. You have to pick and choose when buying bundles of vegetables. If someone like Longma buys vegetables...you have to pick and choose.

The thought he had when he saw Qiu Bai for the first time turned into determination and determination until now.

"Your reaction was beyond my expectations. It was too calm... Did you expect the 'test'?" Ryoma asked.

"No, it's just that I think your statement is very reasonable." Qiu Bai said, only ghosts would think that people who are about to throw themselves into the street will bother to do any tests.

"Then, I'll teach you something different next."

Longma put Qiushui on his waist again, he walked in front to guide Qiubai, and then opened the door of the "dojo" again.
