Chapter 7, The Parrot's Lecture
This guy looks tough to deal with at first glance, we definitely can't win against him. Why don't you just say a few casual words to distract him? If we can manage to send him away, that would be best. If he doesn't leave, we can at least buy some more time... said the donkey.
The three pets gazed at each other, all feeling somewhat confused
The parrot's eyes lit up as well
Liu Yiyi was completely bewildered
The area of the Hidden Immortal Residence is quite large, with a diameter exceeding several hundred meters. She stood outside the door, suppressing her breath, and theoretically, it should be difficult for anyone to notice her. At this moment, from the implication of the person across from her, it was clear that they had already discovered her presence
It is evident that the purpose of having a master, who has never practiced swordsmanship, draw the sword is self-explanatory
"Good! It's just... how do we say it? None of us understand Kendo!" The parrot rolled its eyes.
"They do not have wings; they should be referred to as hooves..." The donkey corrected the mistake in a lowered voice
There are doubts in my heart, yet there is not the slightest suspicion
"Really can't do it? Can't even do the fake one?" The donkey pouted and said, "Haven't you seen the master chop wood? Just follow that method, after all, it's all about chopping, close enough will do!"
"Who are you, wandering here, and what is your purpose?" Liu Yiyi was taken aback, her heart filled with astonishment
Is flying not about riding a sword? Waving wings? What on earth!
Having said that, he turned to the outside and continued, "How do you wish to seek guidance?"
What should I do? Seeing that the other party was relentless, I looked again at my two friends, and the parrot seemed a bit anxious
Having been by Su Yin's side for many years, I am well aware of the latter's situation. He has consistently studied skills such as music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, but has never learned any martial arts. Even if he possesses some strength, it is unlikely to be very formidable
Fleeing may lead to the other party dealing with the master, while not fleeing poses a danger to them, making it a difficult choice
After the discussion was concluded, the old turtle gently swayed, made a circle, and flew into the courtyard, where three pets were hiding behind the door
Liu Yiyi was taken aback.
Who is this guy
Upon hearing the senior, instead of feeling angry, she truly wanted to explain the way of the sword. Liu Yiyi's eyes brimmed with excitement and turned red, standing in place, filled with longing and respect
Not wanting to miss the opportunity, Liu Yiyi steeled herself and said, "If you could personally explain the way of the sword, I would be immensely grateful!"
Truly, one who can write with the essence of sword intent is a formidable individual, instilling fear in others
Let it eat is acceptable, swordsmanship... just kidding
With a deep breath, Liu Yiyi's gaze was resolute
... ...
Upon realizing this, I bowed and clasped my fists together
It is ! ''
I am an ordinary disciple of the Zhenxian Sect, and I have inadvertently arrived here. I would like to seek guidance from my esteemed senior on swordsmanship..." said Liu Yiyi
It is this fellow who harbors ill intentions first; when dealing with evildoers, one must certainly not be courteous
Uh... Liu Yiyi thought for a moment: "If the senior could personally draw the sword, that would be the best..."
not a good person
The parrot said: "How about this, I will ask him what he intends to do. If he does not speak, then he is a bad person. I will hold him off first, and you all find a way to take the master away."
Such politeness, is it not a trouble?
Very well, I will explain it to you; how much you can understand depends on your insight
What should we do? asked the old turtle
May I ask?
Being able to explain so much to her is already a great blessing, and I do not dare to ask for too much
The parrot clenches its beak
After some thought, I opened my mouth with displeasure: "What if I don't?"
Cough cough ... ...
Just as Liu Yiyi was slowly approaching the courtyard, the old tortoise, accompanied by the parrot and the donkey, also arrived outside the Hidden Immortal Residence
Holding a long sword, with blood on his hands, it is clear he is not a good person...! ... Could it be that he intends to capture me for a burning at the stake!
At best, they are somewhat more formidable than ordinary people, but when faced with genuine cultivators... they will undoubtedly kneel
Thank you, senior, for imparting wisdom and resolving my doubts After saying this, he turned and left
When I used to grind, I heard others mention 'seeking advice.' Although the words sound pleasant, they are actually a challenge... For example, 'I have long heard of your esteemed reputation, and today I have come to seek your guidance,' or 'Your technique in killing donkeys is excellent, I would like to seek your advice.'... It is said to be seeking advice, but in reality, it is a matter of life and death!
It is just a bird
Realizing this, the parrot continued to explain, quickly recounting in detail the observations and insights it had when its owner was chopping wood. Finally, it let out a hum and said: "Alright, that's all for today. Take your time to comprehend! If you can understand, it shows you have good talent and are a fine bird; if you cannot, then you are not a good bird"
The donkey shrank its neck and said: "I have heard that the disciples of the sect are all very formidable, capable of effortlessly slaying demonic beasts... We should hide!"
Fear of death is nonexistent, so how could one possibly fear offending others! Once an opportunity is missed, the chance for revenge will be hopeless for a lifetime
What the senior said is so profound
Did we misjudge? This guy has no ill intentions; he really just came to seek advice
Indeed, there are ulterior motives
Just as I was about to knock on the door, a sharp voice sounded from inside
It is a lifetime honor to have such a strong individual personally explain it
Recalling the situation, the donkey felt anxious: "Therefore, they must be here to kill the master... Run away! Otherwise, the master has not practiced swordsmanship, what is there to teach? It is clearly an excuse!"
"It's just... with a master so weak, what is there to learn?"
Left?
Her comprehension is poor, her abilities are weak, and the explanations are too profound, which may prevent her from learning anything at all. It would be best to demonstrate the sword techniques so that she can learn something.
A donkey and a turtle nodded their heads simultaneously
Upon taking a glance, the donkey was filled with terror
The practice of swordsmanship emphasizes precision and speed. To achieve this, intention is of utmost importance. When the mind is focused, the spirit follows; when the heart has a thought, the intention is directed. Only through the combination of heart and intention can one better enhance their strength. It is akin to flying; the faster the wings are waved, the higher one can soar
The speaker is Xiao Wu, who, after responding, casts a pair of bird-like eyes towards Da Hei and Lao Man, filled with confusion
A person of this caliber, every word they utter must carry profound significance. It is not important if you do not understand; just make sure to remember what you hear, and you can study it carefully later
It is best to hide it, but if it is not prevented, it would be disastrous if the master gets hurt, as he has not yet begun his cultivation
It should be a disciple of the Zhenxian Sect..." the parrot said
Although it seems somewhat unlikely, the parrot still nodded and said: "Killing may not be the case, but ill intentions are certainly real. It is possible that they want to investigate the master's strength! Even the identity of the disciple could be false... In that case, let me ask again!"
The parrot cleared its throat and said.
Although I have never been out of the forbidden area, the attire of the Zhenxian Sect is still recognizable
The three beasts quietly took to the air and landed on the wall, and indeed saw the young man had already vanished from sight
Hello!
In any case, I am just talking nonsense; if you cannot comprehend it, it only indicates that you lack talent
Just speak freely, the more profound the better. As for whether the other party can practice it or if they might go astray, it is none of my concern
The people outside are indeed very calculating. If it weren't for Lao Man and Da Hei's reminders, I wouldn't have noticed at all
