Chapter 8 Li Xiuying [2]
Then, Xiuying said that she liked it very much and that it would be good to give it to her, so it would not go to waste
Bu Zheng naturally understood that he was very concerned about this recruitment month, as it was an opportunity for him to turn his fortunes around. His practice of swordsmanship was partly motivated by the anticipation of this opportunity
Regardless of the circumstances, when she saw the girl approaching, she was certain that Bu Zheng would definitely go over, and she was already waiting to see Bu Zheng make a fool of himself
The values are quite simple; lacking ambition, to put it simply, he is just a small-town bumpkin
Bu Zheng said a sentence, "It's not a waste for you either, how about I give you a 20% discount?" Xiu Ying turned around and left, too lazy to pay attention to Bu Zheng. In the end, Bu Zheng chased after Xiu Ying for a long time, reducing the discount from 20% to 30%, and his heartbroken expression made Xiu Ying just want to hit him.
Of course, she knows that Bu Zheng's intention is also to marry a beautiful wife, and it does not truly reflect genuine love for her, but such a statement only highlights his despicable nature even more
Regardless of the aspect, whether it is sword practice, qi cultivation, or lightness skill, he practices for the sake of living, not to compete or fight with others. His life goal is very simple: to earn money, buy land, and marry a wife
What was unexpected was that Bu Zheng did not exhibit the behavior one would expect; he did not even glance at the young girl, merely saying, "I saw her, isn't that Zhao Yuer?"
Holding the iron sword in his hand, although it is a rough iron sword, it is more than sufficient for his current needs, serving well for sword practice. He will cherish and maintain it, ensuring that this iron sword appears to be something of significance.
What left her even more speechless was that after that, Bu Zheng continued to approach the girl in front of him, and all she could say was two words: asking for trouble
Xiuying did not persuade Buzheng to give up, not because she thought it was possible; in fact, the young girl before her was closely connected with most of the talented youths in the village, and it was unlikely that Buzheng would be in the running.
Under such circumstances, coupled with his lack of affection for Zhao Yuer, how could he possibly have any interest in pursuing her
Of course, there are also battles, which are incidental during sword training
Of course, this is not because it belongs to Xiuying
Bu Zheng obtained the iron sword, and as soon as he got it, he immediately threw it down and left with Tu Shu Xiuying. This left Xiuying somewhat speechless; he really does not regard me as an outsider, not even bothering to say thank you.
This is the month of recruiting disciples that is universally acknowledged. Perhaps it will be a little later, or perhaps a little earlier; in any case, the entire world operates in this manner, recruiting disciples around this month. Of course, there are also special recruitments outside of this timeframe, which are not bound by time. Only those who qualify for special recruitment are the true geniuses among geniuses, as ordinary talents do not possess the qualification to enjoy this privilege
Becoming an unparalleled master? That is neither what he envisioned, nor could it ever be. His life has not been stimulated; although he is orphaned, it is due to accidents and the pressures of life, without any enemies.
Due to his need to gather medicinal herbs, he spends more time on body techniques than on sword practice, and his body techniques are evidently superior to his swordsmanship. However, this superiority is primarily in terms of speed, agility, and climbing, aimed at herb gathering rather than combat.
A month has quickly passed, and the little turtle must prepare for the significant event in life that is about to arrive. If successful, he will secure a good job, which for him is indeed a good job, while for others, it represents an opportunity to gain strength and thus change their fate.
It remains the same; what he has learned is all that he is currently capable of learning. For those conditions that require higher demands, he still cannot "learn" them. However, even so, he is very satisfied, as his efficiency in gathering medicinal herbs has significantly improved, and he is now able to reach some places that he previously could not access
For the time being, he remains a simple and unsophisticated person.
However, Bu Zheng felt that what he learned most from those delicate figures was not the swordsmanship, but their agility. In their battles, they employed several sophisticated techniques of movement, some being nimble, others swift, and some even deceptive. They fought from the mountain top down to the base and then back up again, making their agility the focal point.
Of course, one can go by oneself; however, the young person is not of a solitary nature. Going with others provides a sense of support, and most importantly, a group led by someone does not require a registration fee.
Unless his talent is discovered by others, he might have grander dreams, such as earning more money, purchasing more land, and taking a concubine.
"Hurry and get the sword!" Bu Zheng urged Xiu Ying, leaving her no time to ponder the reason behind this.
His swordsmanship became increasingly proficient with practice, yet it also became less and less like the original. This led him to feel that he might lack the innate talent for the way of the sword. However, he did not give up and continued to refine his sword techniques, as the practice of swordsmanship was greatly beneficial to him
She was unaware that after Bu Zheng had met Murong Qing and Ling Aoxue, ordinary stunning women could no longer captivate him. As for Zhao Yuer, he had initially valued her beauty, but now he found that this beauty had become quite ordinary, so ordinary that it was no different from Xiu Ying.
She did not persuade Bu Zheng to give up because she knew it would be futile. Additionally, she had a bit of a toxic friend vibe, enjoying seeing Bu Zheng in a difficult situation, which she did not consider as outright mockery.
At that moment, the young girl cast a curious glance at Bu Zheng, seemingly puzzled by his reaction today. However, it was just a fleeting moment, and soon she dismissed Bu Zheng's odd behavior from her mind.
Xiuying found it very strange, what is this situation? From the tone of voice, it seems as if he is completely looking at a passerby. Could it be that this kid has finally come to his senses and realizes that he has no chance with the books
However, individuals like the youth, who may even be somewhat of a hindrance, are even less likely to enjoy such privileges; he can only enter those sects through the opportunity of recruiting disciples during this month.
Forget it, I will go back to continue my training. In one month, it will be the month for recruiting disciples, and by then I want to join a good sect. By the way, I just forgot to tell Bu Zheng, but he should know, right
Those who confuse their opponents, with a body technique as elusive as a phantom, the young man did not study; he only enjoyed that kind of speed and agility, as he used it for gathering herbs, not for combat. Practicing swordsmanship was merely a hobby, and also a means to hunt wild beasts, which could provide him with extra meals
What grand aspirations can a small creature like him have? To become the best in the world, to maintain peace across the land? What he can think of is merely to eat well, live well, and dress well. Even after ensuring his basic needs are met, he may not think of anything else; he will only wish for a good night's sleep and to have sweet dreams
What the young man needs to do now is to go to the village and join everyone in going to the county town. The place for recruiting disciples is in the county town, as those sects do not come to the village to recruit unless they hear of a genius. Generally speaking, everyone goes to the county town to participate in the small trials prepared by the sects.
