[Rebirth Fantasy] Seven Dragons

It was sunny and sunny.Flender moved a rocking chair and sat in the vegetable garden, squinting his eyes. It was almost noon, and it didn't take long before he heard the sound of chaotic footsteps.Flender shook the seat, smiled and thought those children came and came.

Since the first child was found that day, more and more children came here, making a lot of noise, and Flender was not annoyed. Knowing what happened, he asked these children what stories they heard last night with a smile .

The children below chattered one sentence after another, and the words were very chaotic, but the old man found it lively, and he listened patiently, and sorted out all the content and plots almost completely.

Every time after asking, some children would always ask Flender if he was a reclusive expert, and Flender always smiled and said nothing about it. Although there were some rumors about him in the inner valley, these children all I don't know, but after so many days, some children still guess that he is just an ordinary old man now, and there are many who don't come here anymore, but there are still many children who come to look for Flender every day.

Maybe they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts that Flender was a hidden master, or maybe... they were used to come to this small vegetable garden to play around during their breaks.

"What did that girl tell you again today?"

"It's 'the epee has no front, the big tricks don't work'." A child answered below.

"Oh?" Flender chewed several times in his heart, "Do you know what that means?"

After all, when Messaka spoke these sentences, he used uncommon archaisms. Most of these half-grown children only thought they were handsome, but they didn’t quite understand them. Rand laughed dumbfoundedly.

But children still have the intelligence of children.

One of the children, Old God Zaizai, took out a small book from his pocket, flipped through a few pages, and read aloud: "The so-called epee has no edge, it's so clever... an epee doesn't need a sharp appearance To modify, its power is only contained in the forward momentum of the sword, regardless of sharpness... It can also mean that when things develop to a certain level, some superficial things will be discarded and the essence of things will be pursued .”

I don't know the original name of the boy who read aloud, Flender, but I only know that he is called Xiao Qi by the children around him, he is a branch child of the Violet family, and he is also a child with a strong desire to express himself.

The first time Flender asked these children similar questions, Xiao Qi was the first child to raise his hand to answer, but in the end he made everyone laugh. Afterwards, he had such a small notebook on hand a few times later. , which recorded the explanations for those uncommon sentences, and Flender guessed that they were written down after asking the storyteller for advice.

In fact, Xiao Qi didn't ask Messaka for advice, but spent his own pocket money to buy it from Lily, who was in the same class. On the other end, Messaka just thought that Lily was interested in these sentences, so he wrote down the notes and feelings for him. girl.

The first few times when Xiao Qi read the notes, he was very confused, and he just followed the script. Later, he always practiced reciting beforehand in order to look handsome, but after reading a lot, he also read some feelings, but felt that he said these things Sister Mei, who was talking about it, was probably really some kind of unfathomable expert, so she was in awe.This is something that Mesaka, who wrote these things casually at the beginning, could not have imagined at all.

Flender praised with a smile, and Xiaoqi bowed slightly pretending to be reserved. In fact, he was already complacent in his heart. Facing people like teachers and elders, children's feelings are still very easy to satisfy. It only takes a little bit. Praise and attention.

Afterwards, Flender deliberated over his words, and then said under the expectant eyes of the children: "That person's understanding is quite reasonable, but that kind of realm requires enough experience, a little bit of talent, and a little bit of luck." ..." He said a little bit, but Flender didn't want to hurt these children and gave them hope.Otherwise, wouldn't the strong in that realm run all over the place?

"...Slashing with a sword makes you unavoidable, but you have to understand that this is something you can only do after you have mastered a large number of moves. Think about it, if you even 'cut' I can’t even use this movement well, I can break ten times with one force, I remember that person said this word..." Flender paused, looking at the children squatting in front of him, the children They all nodded subconsciously.

After getting the confirmation, Flender continued, "Well, if you don't understand the moves, you can't talk about breaking through ten games, so you should work hard in your daily life, don't be self-righteous just because you heard these things, that would be the opposite. Delay your future."

These days, these children kept telling Flender the stories they heard and what they called "martial arts experience" in the stories. Flender was once a ninth-level sword master. The exaggerated and unpractical principles in these things have been corrected, and I also tell these children some of my own experience.

The things he said are actually of little use to the children at the current level. The most important thing for children is the practical foundation, so some children will never come again.But it will be of great benefit if they can think of these again when they advance to intermediate warriors in the future.

But that Messaka-Violet is a very interesting little fellow.Flender squinted, wondering when he would meet the little guy.

**********

During the few days at the end of the night flower moon, the sky was always faint and rainy, as if it was going to wash away the heat of the whole late summer and early autumn. In this kind of weather, the junior students Their swordsmanship practice has been arranged to the indoor martial arts arena.

After staying in Sword Valley for nearly a month, Mesaka has fully adapted to life in Sword Valley. During this time, her strength has grown rapidly, and she has reached the level of a second-level warrior. After being tested by Alva that day, the other party's silent expression Let Messaka feel comfortable just thinking about it.

Most of the students in the class still have a cold war with her, only a few girls have a good relationship with her, but they are probably afraid of being rejected by other students because of her involvement, so they don't talk to her very often in front of others.Mesaka, who once walked the road alone with monsters, naturally doesn't care about this sense of isolation, but no one likes this kind of person.

So every time after practicing, Mesaka would go back to the dormitory alone, where there was a cute little girl waiting for her every day.After getting along with Lily for a month, she really likes this little girl who is too cute and cute.

But what Mesaka didn't expect was that Lily had a small problem of being greedy for money. A few days ago, she saw the little girl secretly stuffing a dozen gold coins under the bed.

More than a dozen gold coins is not too little. An ordinary family of four earns [-] gold coins before tax and about [-] gold coins after tax.But it’s okay for the little girl to secretly hide some private money. Messaka was planning to pretend not to see it, but she didn’t expect the girl to hand over the gold coins with both hands, and frankly said that the gold coins were written by her before. Those things for girls are resold to classmates.

Mesaka did not expect that Lily would make reasonable use of the resources around her to make money at a young age. Should the girl be said to be a money fan or a money fan?

But when Lily handed over the gold coin, the cute little face wrinkled like a bun almost made Mesaka unable to restrain himself from wanting to rub the girl in his arms and love her a lot.

In addition, speaking of Lily's classmates, they are also a group of interesting children.At first, Messaka was forced to tell books, er, to tell stories, but later it evolved into entertainment in her spare time.Later, I heard that those children really found a hidden expert, and they went to ask questions during their lunch break all day long, but Mesaka also heard that most of what the expert said was a bit too profound for them to understand.

Lily also relayed to her what they had heard, and it was really true.Mesaka was a little surprised at that person's level of martial arts, but Mesaka thought that the so-called hidden expert might be some boring Neigu disciple who came in the mood to point and point and play with those children.

It was raining outside, pattering, Mesaka gathered her damp black hair, opened her umbrella and walked towards the student dormitory. The indoor martial arts field was still a certain distance from the dormitory area. When she walked less than half the distance, Mesaka Ka saw an old man standing under a rock that protruded from the mountain face to take shelter from the rain.

There are few people in Sword Valley who have never practiced fighting qi, but that old man is completely just an ordinary old man in Mesaka's eyes.After being reborn, Mesaka can now detect everyone's ability level without testing, and the old man has neither fighting spirit nor magic fluctuations, which makes Mesaka a little surprised.

The old man was leaning on the agricultural tools at his feet, and he seemed to have come from the vegetable garden. His trouser legs were stained with muddy water, and he was probably a little cold. He stood there with his arms around his shoulders.

"Do you need help?" Mesaka walked up to the old man holding an umbrella and asked.

The old man froze for a moment, then smiled on his face and kept saying "thank you".

It was just a matter of convenience, Mesaka was going to send the old man home, but before walking a few steps, he met Lily who was also walking back.

"Lily." Messaka called out.The girl turned around, "Second Miss! Grandpa Flanders!"

"Grandpa Flender?" Mesaka was wondering, and the old man beside him responded with a smile: "So you are Lily's friend."

Lily was very popular in the valley, and Mesaka was not surprised that Lily knew the old man beside her. Mesaka handed the umbrella to the old man whom Lily called Grandpa Flanders, and said, "I live in the same dormitory with Lily. , I will give you this umbrella. We can just hold an umbrella."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for the other party to refuse, he trotted and hid under Lily's umbrella.

Lily, who was holding an umbrella with Mesaka, seemed a little nervous. She always tried her best to lean the umbrella towards Mesaka with her arms, and as a result, half of her body was drenched in the rain.Seeing this, Messaka simply grabbed the umbrella, hugged the girl in his arms and walked back.

At first Lily was a little shy and nervous, but as she talked, gradually, her small body against Mesaka became softer.

"I heard that Grandpa Flender was a very powerful person before, but he got injured and became what he is now..." Lily used to live in Neigu, and she also heard about Flender I talked about it, and now I babbled it to Mesaka in order to divert my attention.

Mesaka can feel the girl's mood. At this time, in order to let the girl relax, she also deliberately made a look of sudden realization to cooperate with Lily, and said, "So it is like this."

The two walked back while talking. From a distance, they looked like real sisters, with a warm color.

On the other side, Flender held an umbrella in one hand and farm tools in the other, said in a low voice, "They're all good boys," and then walked unsteadily towards his own residence.He didn't expect that the girl who gave him the raincoat just now was the girl who told the story that he wanted to meet not long ago.

In the rain curtain, Jian Valley was silent amidst the sound of rain.Time passed by the night flower moon without haste.
