Start Six Maids

"Look at those people!"

Chu Ci signaled Leng Ruxue and Zhen Yu Linglong to look at the people who were chatting and laughing in the rest area.

These people were all dressed in uniform, and there was a look of arrogance on their faces from time to time when they talked and laughed with each other.

"Those people are guards hired by merchant ships."

Zhen Yu Linglong took a sized look, then pondered, "They are all magicians and martial artists, right?"

"It's just a merchant ship, do we need so many extraordinary people?"

Chu Ci looked at Zhenyu Linglong, and said aloud, "The Heishui River is not safe, everyone should be careful."

Turning to look at Leng Ruxue, Chu Ci asked aloud, "Ruxue, can you perceive their strength?"

Leng Ruxue nodded slightly, closed her eyes and meditated for a moment, then opened her eyes and said, "Three second-tier sorcerers, one third-tier sorcerer, four fourth-tier martial artists, and two fifth-tier martial artists."

Chu Ci raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and said softly, "This lineup is of a good level!"

More than good, this kind of strength configuration is already comparable to the sum of the strength of the four groups of men and horses in the Weiqing Department.

Leng Ruxue listened for a moment, then continued, "The two fifth-rank martial artists seem to be hired by the ship owner temporarily."

Looking at Chu Ci Leng Ruxue said softly, "Master, this voyage may not be easy!"

Chu Ci nodded slightly, "Understood, Ruxue, you always pay attention."

"En." Leng Ruxue agreed.

wow la la

On the Blackwater River where the merchant ship was sailing, there was a faint sound of water waves entering the cabin.

With a thought in his heart, Chu Ci got up and said, "Let's go to the deck for a walk?"

The drunk Taoist nodded, stroked his beard and said, "Okay, the last time I saw Heishuihe was several years ago."

Everyone got up and left the rest area, and went down the third cabin.

On the deck, the sailors are busy with their work.

Chu Ci walked to the deck, looked at the vast water surface in the distance, and suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Looking around, passengers in twos and threes have come to the deck to watch the scenery.

"Let's go over there!"

Chu Ci pointed to a corner of the deck and greeted several people.

The drunk Taoist leaned against the railing of the deck, grabbed the wine gourd and took a sip of wine.

"call···"

"Every time I see the Black Water River, Pindao always has the urge to chant a poem!"

"Huh?!" Chu Ci looked at the drunken Taoist and chuckled, "Master Daoist, come and show it!"

"cough!"

The drunk Taoist coughed lightly, raised his head and let out a long sigh, "The Black Water River flows to the sky, looking at the endless sky..."

"Okay, okay!"

Chu Ci quickly interrupted the poetic nature of the drunk Taoist.

"Stop reciting poems, Daoist, I'm afraid I'll have nightmares at night."

The drunk Taoist glared at Chu Ci angrily, "You brat!"

"The elegance of the poor is all spoiled by you!"

"Haha..." Chu Ci let out a long laugh, "Master Daoist, let's just shut up and enjoy the scenery."

Chu Ci stood on the deck of the merchant ship, overlooking the surging Heishui River.

The Heishui River is as wide as the sea, and equally unfathomable.

Standing on the deck and looking at it, the water of the Heishui River is as black as ink, and it really no longer has the name of the Heishui River.

"Sister Leng!"

Zhen Yu Linglong moved her steps carefully, and came to Leng Ruxue.

"Sister Leng, can you teach me how to use swords?"

Leng Ruxue was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Yes."

"Great!" Zhen Yu Linglong cheered excitedly, "Sister Leng, shall we go back to the cabin?"

Leng Ruxue shook her head and said, "Why go back to the cabin?"

Zhenyu Linglong was taken aback, "Isn't it pointing swordsmanship? I'm afraid it's inconvenient here?"

Leng Ruxue said in a cold voice, "Swordsmanship is practiced, and the space here is open, which is just right!"

"Exert the sword technique you have learned and let me see it!"

Zhen Yu Linglong hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay!"

After finishing speaking, Zhen Yu Linglong walked to the side of the deck and drew out the long sword at her waist.

Swish Swish Swish...

In the next second, the sword glowed brightly.

The sharp sword light tore through the air, and there were bursts of sharp sword sounds.

Wen Renyu looked at Zhen Yu's exquisite and moving figure, and couldn't help but become obsessed.

"Senior Sister is amazing!"

Chu Ci leaned back against the railing and said to the drunken Taoist, "Master Taoist, what do you think of Miss Zhenyu's swordsmanship?"

The drunk Taoist took a sip of wine, shook his head and chuckled, "So-so."

Zui Taoist used to be the most talented swordsman of the Heavenly Human Taoist Sect. Although his strength is not there now, his vision is still fierce.

Although Zhen Yu's exquisite swordsmanship looks fierce and domineering, it is very bluffing.

But Chu Ci could feel that there was something missing in Zhenyu Linglong's swordsmanship.

That is the soul!

Zhen Yu Linglong's swordsmanship is very rigid, lacking the feeling of elegance and agility.

Chapter 284 Take a Slash!

On the deck of the merchant ship, Zhen Yu Linglong fully demonstrated the sword skills she had learned.

Clang!

With the long sword back in its sheath, Zhen Yu Linglong looked expectantly at Leng Ruxue.

"Sister Leng, how is my swordsmanship?"

Leng Ruxue looked at Zhenyu Linglong, and said in a blunt tone, "It's useless!"

"what?!"

Zhen Yu Linglong didn't expect that she would get such an evaluation, her eyes were reddened in frustration.

Wen Renyu at the side couldn't help feeling distressed when he saw this, and hurriedly comforted him, "Senior sister, your swordsmanship is very good, don't..."

Zhenyu Linglong glared at Wen Renyu, and said angrily, "Shut up!"

Wen Renyu's expression froze, and he quickly shut up and stopped talking.

Zhen Yu Linglong looked up at Leng Ruxue, sniffed and said, "Sister Leng, tell me what to do?"

"actually···"

Zhen Yu Linglong was silent for a moment, and then said, "My father also said this sentence."

Wen Renyu couldn't help opening his eyes wide, and looked at Zhen Yu Linglong with a surprised expression.

I didn't expect my master to comment on my senior sister like this!

Looking at Zhenyu Linglong with cold eyes as cold as snow, she said in a cold voice, "Your swordsmanship looks fierce and domineering, but in fact it is rigid and rigid, without the slightest hint of agility!"

"Practice the sword just for the sake of practicing the sword!"

"Practicing swords for the sake of practicing swords?" Zhen Yu Linglong repeated in a murmur, with a look of enlightenment.

"Sister Leng, what should I do?"

Leng Ruxue said in a deep voice, "Find your own reason for swinging your sword!"

"Reason?" Zhen Yu Linglong's face showed a hint of confusion, "Does it count as becoming stronger?"

Leng Ruxue shook her head slightly, "Becoming stronger is just the process of swinging the sword, not the real reason!"

Leng Ruxue pointed at the Heishui River, and said to Zhenyu Linglong, "From today on, I will swing my sword at the Heishui River [-] times a day!"

"Ask yourself every time you swing your sword, what is your reason for swinging your sword!"

"One, ten thousand times?!" Zhen Yu Linglong was a little dumbfounded.

"When will it end then?"

Leng Ruxue looked at Heishuihe, and pointed forward like a sword.

Clang!

A sharp sword light burst out from Leng Ruxue's fingertips!

The sword light cut across the water, and the river was forced to part, leaving a long and narrow sword mark on the river in an instant!

After ten breaths, the sword mark slowly disappeared!

Leng Ruxue put down her fingers and looked at Zhenyu Linglong who was already stunned.

"Whenever you can swing such a sword, it will prove that you have found your own way of the sword!"

Zhen Yu Linglong came back to her senses, and looked at Leng Ruxue frantically.

"Sister Leng, I understand!"

"I'm going to practice swords right now!"

Clang!

Zhen Yu Linglong drew her sword out of its sheath, stood on the deck of the merchant ship, facing the Heishui River, and swung the first sword of the day.

Leng Ruxue took Chu Ci's arm and said softly, "Master, shall we go over there?"

Chu Ci nodded, and greeted Zui Daoren, "Master Daoist, let's not disturb Miss Zhenyu's sword practice."

"Let's go!"

Chu Ci greeted, and the three of them walked to the other side of the deck as coldly as snow.

ding ding dong dong

The crisp and pleasant sound of the piano floated into Chu Ci's ears.

"Go and see!"

Chu Ci's eyes lit up, and he walked towards the direction of the piano sound.

A woman with long hair like a waterfall is holding a pipa in her arms, stroking the strings with her head down.

"is her?"

A strange color flashed in Chu Ci's eyes.

The girl who played the pipa turned out to be the singer who played the pipa in the teahouse of "Xiaoer, let's make tea" in Heishui City.

Why is she also on the merchant ship?Could it be that the captain invited him to perform?

A few thoughts came to Chu Ci's mind.

Leaning on the railing of the deck, Chu Ci closed his eyes and listened to the sound of the woman's piano.

The melody is melodious, but strange.

It should be the song she made up by herself, right?
