The First Beastmaster of the Nine Realms

Chapter 9 has a far greater impact on Jian Baisan than yesterday

Jian Baisan was woken up the next day by rhubarb's barking.

She only remembered in a trance that she was shocked and angry last night, thirsty and tired, and her whole body ached.She just caught the rhubarb thrown by Luo Xiaoyu, her mind suddenly relaxed, her vision went dark, and she lost consciousness.

But now she was lying in an empty hut, with soft straw under her body, and a blue cloth robe covering her body.It's this cloth robe, no matter how you look at it, it looks like the lunatic senior brother wore it yesterday.

She moved her wrist and found that the wrist was intact; when she sat up, the pain in her internal organs was gone; she touched her forehead again and found that it was quite smooth, and the mud from kowtow last night was gone—as if the unilateral pain last night The fight was like a dream.

Could it be that the senior brother brought her back and settled her down?But he was so ruthless yesterday, what reason is there to send her back with good intentions?

She sat quietly for a few seconds, and the knocking on the door came back softly and regularly, and Rhubarb immediately barked again.

Jian Baisan said: "Dahuang, don't bark."

After finishing speaking, she stretched out her hand to hold the knife on her waist, and walked carefully to the door.I was afraid that the one who opened the door would be Luo Xiaoyu, the senior brother who beat her whenever he saw her.But when it comes to senior brother, she can't even remember his appearance, she only remembers the fish he was sitting on, under the water light, his head turned slightly through the wet long hair, and he bounced her away. An understatement with a finger on the knife in his hand.

Gloomy, scary, even a little crazy - these are all her impressions of Luo Xiaoyu.

Be mentally prepared to open the door, but instead of the wet, imaginary person on the door frame, there is a boy leaning on it.

The young man has a pretty baby face, looking at only sixteen or seventeen years old, he is not aggressive at all.His hair was tied up, he was wearing a crimson satin dress embroidered with gold, and he was holding a birdcage in his hand, shaking it lightly in boredom, like a nobleman waiting for his sister next door to go shopping.

A large pink-haired bird in the cage was annoyed by his shaking, and kept flapping its wings, but its claws were tightly clasped on the beam, glaring at him angrily.He also looked at the bird, his eyes bent, and a clean smile appeared on his face.

Seeing her open the door, the young man turned his head, faced the sun, squinted his eyes, and showed a slightly embarrassed smile to Jian Baisan, as if he hadn't talked to the girl much—"Don't come again It's going to be cold for breakfast."

Jian Baisan didn't understand the meaning of Rhubarb's low growl, nor why a young boy suddenly appeared in the morning to wake her up for breakfast, so she had to remove her hand from the handle of the knife first. , Leng Leng asked: "Who are you?"

There was an unmistakable surprise in the boy's smile, and he said, "Don't you recognize me? I'm Luo Xiaoyu."

As soon as Luo Xiaoyu finished speaking, Jian Baisan's heart trembled, and he secretly scolded himself for being reckless, without daring to delay at all, he immediately drew out his two sabers.

I saw that he didn't react to the pair of knives pointing directly at him, but frowned and commented on her posture: "Didn't the person who taught you the knives say that? When you really fight, you can't draw both knives at the same time."

Jian Baisan: "Huh?"

Luo Xiaoyu said: "A person who is good at using two knives can attack with his knives, smash jade to cut steel, and swim dragons to twist snow. You are far from reaching this level, but you insist on drawing knives at the same time. It's a flaw. If you want to fight, you have to defend it with one hand, and give the spirit beast a reaction time. Wait until the defense is complete, and then draw another knife. Remember?"

"Remember, remember."

"Also," the young man stretched out his hand towards her raised wrist, and Jian Baisan's hands trembled a little, for fear that this hand that could fly steel knives would poke her fragile wrist.

Luo Xiaoyu only grasped her hand vaguely, adjusted his posture slightly, and said: "In this way of opening the hand, you have to drop an inch, the wrist is drawn inward, and the blade is slanted towards the enemy."

After hearing the instruction, Jian Baisan tried to swing the knife reflexively, and found that it was indeed more convenient.

Before Jian Baisan could continue, the black carp from yesterday appeared beside Luo Xiaoyu.He sat up sideways and said, "Let's have breakfast first, it's cold."

Jian Baisan silently put away the two sabers, and Da Huang followed up, each of them a bit stupefied.

The small room given to her was on the west side of the courtyard. After walking forward, she saw Luo Xiaoyu parked beside a set of open-air stone tables and chairs. The stone table was covered by a huge pine tree, and she could smell it from a distance. The dish is fragrant.

A little further away, there is an osmanthus tree growing in the corner in the yard.

Jian Baisan hadn't eaten a decent meal for several days, but when he got closer, he found that the breakfast at this table was quite rich.There are two steaks with sauce, two bowls of porridge with shredded ginger, and one bowl of vegetables.There was also a low bowl in the ground, with some white meat and egg yolks in it.

Jian Baisan felt his belly growling again after eating a little Bigu Dan, and even the rhubarb next to him stopped barking, and ran to the low bowl to eat.

Luo Xiaoyu, who was sitting on the carp, winked at her and said playfully, "I made it, how about it? Eat it."

Jian Baisan did not move his chopsticks.

If the senior brother still treats her like yesterday, she will tell the master that it will be fine to change the place of residence. Left and right are just for cultivation, and anywhere is fine; but Luo Xiaoyu came over in the morning and treated her so well all at once. He taught swordsmanship, as if he was really an older brother who wanted to help her adapt to life in Chuyuanzhou.Thinking of this, Jian Baisan, who has only been away from home for a few days, has already been injured and frightened several times, suddenly feels a little wronged for no reason.

This is not something that Luo Xiaoyu, who is not familiar with this and doesn't understand his motives, can say.Jian Baisan raised his chopsticks, took a bite of food and ate.

Luo Xiaoyu on the opposite side took a sip of porridge, and suddenly said softly: "Junior Sister, I'm sorry."

Jian Baisan asked directly, "Why?"

Luo Xiaoyu was silent for a while, but still said softly: "Just think that I have misunderstood the person. I have no intention of killing you or hurting you, so don't be afraid of me..."

He repeated, "Sorry. I won't do it again."

Jian Bai and the others were a bit straightforward, but she could tell what was true and what was false.

Whether it's "a new apprentice" or "give me five kowtows, and I'll return your dog"... Luo Xiaoyu has never mistaken anyone.

The gloomy lunatic in the water might be more real than the boy holding the birdcage under the sun at the moment.

During Jian Baisan's short 13 years, most of the people he met were cottage residents who drank whenever they could and spoke out.Those with a good relationship can wear the same pair of trousers and plow the same field; those with a bad relationship always have a reason, and sometimes they can quarrel and fight.But I haven't seen two strangers who beat each other up when they meet, and they don't want to say why after the fight.

Jian Baisan couldn't figure it out.

If you can't figure it out, don't think about it.Since he doesn't want to say it, just stay away from him on weekdays.

Luo Xiaoyu finished eating first, then picked up the bird cage, stared at the bird for a while, then looked at Rhubarb, and asked, "It doesn't eat birds, does it?"

Jian Baisan replied: "Don't eat."

Luo Xiaoyu raised his hand, and the cage door opened.The pink-feathered bird inside rushed out, pecked at Luo Xiaoyu's head like a woodpecker, called twice, and flew away.

Luo Xiaoyu touched the top of her hair, and explained: "Little Shell has a bad temper."

Being locked in a cage and dangling around every day, no one's temper will get better, Jian Baisan complained.

Her senior brother suddenly asked again: "Do you like small shells?"

Before Jian Baisan could answer, Luo Xiaoyu hurriedly replied, "I must like it. Over the years, I haven't met anyone who doesn't like it."

He asked again, "Where are you from?"

Jian Baisan answered cautiously: "Great Barren State."

Luo Xiaoyu easily tugged at the hook of the birdcage and turned the birdcage like a spinning top; it seemed that he had restrained himself a lot when the little shell was still inside.

Luo Xiaoyu smiled and said, "That's right. I also learned knives before, so I have something to discuss with you. I'll teach you how to learn knives, and if you obediently let me enjoy being a master, I'll lend you two small shells." months."

"Is it okay?" He said, "Little Shell has grown up and is a Ren-level spirit beast. You can fly to the Great Barren State in ten days. Do you have someone in mind? I can still tell Little Shell to take you The word from the family is coming back."

Jian Baisan did not speak for a while.Although logically speaking, the old man Sheyang asked her to come to Xiaoyu Peak and asked her to ask her senior brother everything. He obviously trusted this disciple, and it was one of his responsibilities to teach her temporarily, but after last night, she Receiving this favor still made her feel a little strange.

Luo Xiaoyu put away a little smile, and said sincerely: "One is the responsibility of the senior brother, and the other is the compensation from the senior brother."

Jian Baisan still felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about her parents and Jian Er, she still said, "Then thank you brother for teaching me."

Luo Xiaoyu found it interesting.Whether it's a shot or a kowtow, he admired Jian Baisan's wildness yesterday. He came to communicate with her normally today. Looking at her expression, he found that she still has a bit of wonderful sensitivity——speaking clearly Straightforward, as if he doesn't understand the world, but he can immediately detect the truth and falsehood of many of his words, and can distinguish which words are more sincere.

Feeling like a wild dog, Luo Xiaoyu defined him as a junior in her heart.
