I rely on tricks to cultivate my longevity

"After that, I don't know anymore. These villagers are not willing to talk to me. I overheard these contents."

As she said that, Bai Qing suddenly showed dissatisfaction and said, "This group of villagers is also strange. They don't want to talk to me. They always call me 'water monkey fellow' when they meet. It's really inexplicable. I don't know what it means."

"Hehe." Lin Xixue's face twitched twice, not knowing how to react, after all, the water monkey was talking about her.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, this time I went to Sanyuan Temple to investigate, has there been any progress regarding Xiao Xu?" Bai Qing changed the topic.

"This matter has basically been settled, and I will go to the temple to discuss the follow-up matters only in the early morning of tomorrow."

"Then I will continue to stay here to detect the movement of the group of bull-nosed and strange insects." She pointed to the bottom of the lake, "After the group of bull-nosed entered, there was no movement at all, I'm afraid there will be some changes in the cave."

"Okay, I will cooperate with Chenghuang Temple Zhu to perform the soul-attracting technique for Zhiyi as soon as possible, and I will meet you again after the matter is completed."

"Okay, if there is a change, please contact me by chance."

Lin Xixue nodded, and suddenly glanced upwards, and said: "I have been on duty here for many days, thank you for your hard work, Ah Qing."

Bai Qing was startled at first, then she smiled slightly, and said, "You have worked hard too, you have traveled more than a thousand miles in a row."

Lin Xixue was about to leave after the two of them exchanged polite greetings, but just after taking two steps, she heard Bai Qing clear her throat twice behind her.

She turned around to look, only to see Bai Qing folded her arms around her chest, turned slightly sideways, and said, "Have you forgotten something?"

Lin Xixue tilted her head, did she forget anything?It doesn't seem to be. Hiss, the jade sword that I promised to make for Bai Qing seems to have been forgotten by me.

She pretended to be calm and said: "Don't worry, the jade sword I promised to make for you will naturally not be forgotten. Isn't it because things are complicated now, and I haven't found the right jade material yet!"

"Well, for the sake of you remembering in time, and because you are really busy, I don't blame you. It's so late, you should go back and wash up."

Bai Qing couldn't tell that she had actually forgotten, but when she thought that there were indeed too many things that were much more important than this right now, she just gave her a blank look and stopped worrying about it.

Seeing Bai Qing's reaction, Lin Xixue naturally understood her thoughts, and both of them laughed tacitly.

The two stopped chatting, and Lin Xixue quickly returned to Yunzhou Mansion to freshen up, then fetched yellow paper and a red pen, and wrote a letter.

According to Lu Er, the essence of this generational inheritance is actually just to write a letter to Lord Chenghuang in his own name, and recommend it.

So, she wrote the letter ahead of time, and when she went to see the Temple of the City God tomorrow, she saved a lot of effort.

Dry and put away the letter paper written by Zhubi, and take a nap before dawn to relieve mental fatigue.

The next day when the sky was dim, Lin Xixue got off the bed, and before she went out, she saw Qu Ruoyin waving a wooden stick repeatedly in the courtyard.

After all, Qu Ruoyin was born in a peasant family. Her nutrition was not very good, her body was thin, and she was out of breath after continuous waving, and the muscles on her arms began to tremble uncontrollably.

But she still gritted her teeth and swung the stick again and again.

Lin Xixue saw all of this, and felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Her parents had just died, and this time, Qu Ruoyin didn't cry or make trouble, so she got up early in the morning and "practiced sword".

Seeing Lin Xixue coming out, Qu Ruoyin stopped her movements, knelt down in front of her, kowtowed three times, and said, "Master, please teach me the sword technique."

"Don't call me Master, I won't accept disciples." Lin Xixue curled her lips helplessly, and asked again: "Do you really want to learn swordsmanship?"

"Want to learn!"

"Why do you want to learn and take revenge?"

Qu Ruoyin was startled, and after thinking for a moment, she replied, "My sister said that I need to defend my own life, so I want to learn sword."

Lin Xixue sighed, thinking that the Kuangjian sword manual must not be passed on to Qu Ruoyin.

This kind of insane sword move, which is close to death at the same time, how can a mortal like Qu Ruoyin use it?
If it weren't for Lin Xixue's special physical state, which is almost immortal, she would have killed herself in less than two times.

Besides, the sword manual is so weird, it's better not to pass it on randomly.

However, although this mad sword cannot be passed on to Qu Ruoyin, when Lin Xixue obtained the sword manual, she also realized the sword intent of the mad sword, and her swordsmanship skills are naturally good at this moment.

Even pointing Qu Ruoyin with ordinary sword moves is enough for her.

She broke off a branch from the courtyard, shook it in her hand, and said to Qu Ruoyin, "Use your sword and attack me."

Qu Ruoyin had seen Lin Xixue's methods before, and knew that it was impossible for her to hurt her, so she didn't hesitate, and with all her strength, she swung the wooden stick and slashed at Lin Xixue's head.

Lin Xixue didn't move much, but she stepped forward with her left foot, twisted slightly, and turned sideways.Qu Ruoyin's all-powerful blow was already in the air, her whole body's center of gravity was out of balance, and she fell forward.

Lin Xixue flicked the branch from bottom to top, and she was right in front of Qu Ruoyin's neck, but her center of gravity was already out of balance at this moment, and her neck bumped into the branch by herself.

Seeing that her neck was about to be caught by the branch, Lin Xixue grabbed her neckline with her backhand, stopped her falling, and helped her up.

"What if when I am facing the enemy in actual combat, what I hold is not a branch but a sword?" Lin Xixue asked.

Qu Ruoyin remained silent. If it was really against the enemy, she might have bumped her neck into the opponent's sword just now.

But she quickly began to think, and replied after a while: "I understand, what my sister means is that when you attack the enemy, if you use all your strength at once, you can't control it, and you will show your flaws."

"That's right. If you want to use a sword, the first step is to control the sword. Keep your feet steady and hold the sword firmly. Only then can you use your long sword like your arms and fingers, and do whatever you want."

Lin Xixue thought that Qu Ruoyin's comprehension was not bad, so she continued to give pointers. She took the wooden stick from Qu Ruoyin's hand, swung her backhand, and slashed at Qu Ruoyin's head.

Qu Ruoyin only felt a gust of wind blowing over her forehead, knowing that she must not be able to dodge this blow, so she instinctively closed her eyes.

But in the next moment, the wooden stick landed on her forehead precisely, the gap between the wooden stick and the skin on her forehead might not even be able to penetrate a strand of hair.

"This is sword control. When you can control the wooden stick accurately, you can change it to an iron stick. After you have practiced the iron stick, you can be regarded as a beginner. Once you have mastered sword control, you can practice sword moves."

"Thank you sister for your advice!" Qu Ruoyin's eyes lit up instantly, full of longing.

"Well, you practice swords by yourself first, I still have some things to deal with, if you have any needs for food, clothing, housing and transportation, you can directly explain to the maids in the mansion."

Qu Ruoyin nodded heavily, and watched Lin Xixue leave.

Lin Xixue came to the Town God's Temple, and saw the Zhike Daotong standing at the door again, went up to greet her, and said, "Little master, we meet again."

"I've seen Shangzhen, did Shangzhen come to look for Master?" This time, Daotong's words and deeds were obviously a little cautious, as if he was a little afraid of her.

Lin Xixue nodded with a smile, and said, "Thank you, little master."

Not long after, Miao Zhu came out with a smile all over his face.
