Two years later.
Shen Qiu and Bai Mucheng walked together on the winding path in the dense woods.
"Where are we going?"
"You'll know in a moment."
Bai Mucheng said calmly.
Although Shen Qiu was very curious, he still followed Bai Mucheng silently.
Not long after, the two came to the depths of the woods, where they saw a spacious and solemn martial arts arena. The entire building and walls of the martial arts arena were made of wood, which looked very charming.
There is a natural waterfall in the area to the right of the martial arts field.
The rushing waterfall water keeps rushing down, and in the middle of the edge there is a waterwheel that keeps rotating.
At this time, the closed wooden door of the martial arts arena was pushed open, and two women in loose black work clothes saluted respectfully.
"welcome."
Bai Mucheng led Shen Qiu inside with an expressionless face.
Shen Qiu looked curiously at the interior of the martial arts field. After entering the gate, he first came to a spacious courtyard. The courtyard was surrounded by various lush trees and the ground was paved with stones. On both sides of the courtyard were neatly arranged training equipment, with swords, sticks and various weapons on them.
At the innermost part there is a very spacious wooden house with a high raised roof.
"Not bad, you can find such a niche place. But it doesn't seem to be very busy here, I don't see any other customers."
Shen Qiu said in surprise.
"This martial arts arena is private to me and is not open to the public. I come here occasionally to practice."
Bai Mucheng explained calmly.
When Shen Qiu heard this, he was also slightly stunned, with an incredible expression on his face.
"Don't be so surprised. We are here to practice swordsmanship and sharpen our minds at the same time."
Bai Mucheng said to Shen Qiu.
"good!"
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
…
One month later.
In the martial arts arena and courtyard.
Shen Qiu and Bai Mucheng looked at each other while holding their specially made wooden swords.
At the edge of the courtyard, a waitress was watching curiously.
The two men saluted each other at the same time, then both bent their bodies slightly, slowly moved their right feet forward, stared at each other, and performed the standard white sword drawing technique.
"start!"
Following Bai Mucheng's announcement.
Shen Qiu rushed towards Bai Mucheng like a wild beast, swinging the wooden sword in his hand towards Bai Mucheng.
Bai Mucheng remained calm and waved the wooden sword towards Shen Qiu.
clang!
With a dull collision sound, the two men drew back their wooden swords at an extremely fast speed at the same time.
Shen Qiu immediately took a step ahead, raised the wooden sword in his hand domineeringly, and slashed it diagonally again.
Bai Mucheng did not choose to confront head-on, but instead stepped back lightly to avoid Shen Qiu's attack.
Shen Qiu kept swinging his wooden sword, launching a storm of attacks on Bai Mucheng. Unfortunately, Bai Mucheng kept retreating, accurately dodging all of Shen Qiu's attacks.
However, just when Bai Mucheng was about to have no way to retreat, she suddenly steadied her body and stopped retreating, then rushed forward forcefully, swinging the sword in her hand towards Shen Qiu.
As Bai Mucheng wielded the wooden sword, it was like an afterimage, attacking the vital points of Shen Qiu's body with incredible precision.
Shen Qiu's eyes could hardly keep up, and he could only rely on his beast-like instinct to continuously make defensive blocks.
Although Bai Mucheng's attacks were not particularly overbearing, each sword attack was closely linked to the next one.
Shen Qiu felt more and more exhausted and was constantly forced back.
Bang!
As expected, Shen Qiu was hit on the arm.
Shen Qiu then tapped the ground with his toes and jumped back to create some distance.
Bai Mucheng did not pursue, but bent his body slightly, staring at Shen Qiu, making a leading posture, his momentum constantly rising.
Seeing this, Shen Qiu also did the same action. At this moment, he was under tremendous pressure.
"The light flows through the sky!"
Bai Mucheng's pupils shrank, and his aura exploded instantly, attacking Shen Qiu at an extremely fast speed.
“Well done!”
Shen Qiu also gradually became excited, and at the same time burst out all his strength, heading straight towards Bai Mucheng.
Click!
The two intertwined.
Shen Qiu was hit hard, and the burning pain stimulated his nerves.
"You were still too eager, so you lost."
Bai Mucheng said calmly.
At this time, Shen Qiu's left hand was clenched into a fist, and the excited smile on his face gradually turned into a grin, and he couldn't help but let out a neurotic laugh.
"I, I didn't lose. How could I lose?"
Bai Mucheng frowned immediately, and at this moment Shen Qiu suddenly turned around and rushed towards Bai Mucheng, swinging the wooden sword towards her with great domineering power.
Bai Mucheng raised the wooden sword in his hand to block.
Click!
The huge force of the collision immediately made Bai Mucheng retreat.
"Calm down!"
"Ha ha!"
At this time, the smile on Shen Qiu's face became more and more crazy, and he swung the wooden sword wildly, with both speed and strength reaching the extreme!
Bai Mucheng blocked with great effort and kept retreating.
As a result, Shen Qiu swept his sword with all his might.
Snap!
The wooden sword in Bai Mucheng's hand flew out of her hand and stuck into the ground not far away!
However, even so, Shen Qiu did not stop attacking Bai Mucheng, and continued to swing the wooden sword at her frantically.
At this time, the male waiters around saw this scene and rushed forward to stop it.
"stop!"
As soon as they approached, Shen Qiu turned his head and looked at them ferociously, then rushed forward, swinging his wooden sword and knocked down one of them with one sword.
When the waitresses saw this scene, they screamed in fear.
When Bai Mucheng saw this scene, her cold face moved slightly. She rushed up at an extremely fast speed, grabbed the wooden sword stuck in the ground, and rushed towards the out-of-control Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu instinctively sensed the danger and immediately turned around to look fiercely at the attacking Bai Mucheng.
Bai Mucheng then burst out with all her strength and swept her sword towards Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu raised the wooden sword in his hand and swept it wildly.
Snap!
The two wooden swords broke with a loud bang.
Bai Mucheng immediately let go and threw away the wooden sword, then grabbed Shen Qiu's arm and kicked his leg, knocking him to the ground. Then he pressed his whole body on Shen Qiu and kept shouting.
"Shen Qiu, look at me and calm down!"
Shen Qiu also struggled constantly, while Bai Mucheng tried his best to hold him down.
Shen Qiu, who was struggling at this time, suddenly exerted his strength and sat up. Like a mad dog, he bit Bai Mucheng's neck directly, and blood flowed out.
Bai Mucheng's face showed a trace of pain under the mask, but she continued to call Shen Qiu's name.
"Shen Qiu, Shen Qiu..."
At this time, Shen Qiu's bloodshot eyes gradually regained clarity, his tense body gradually relaxed, his eyes slowly closed, and he fell asleep.
…
The next day.
When Shen Qiu woke up, he found himself lying on a bed, covered with a thin quilt.
Shen Qiu lifted the quilt and sat up from the bed.
He touched his forehead and felt a slight pain in his head. He remembered that he was sparring with Bai Mucheng, so how could he end up in **
Shen Qiu walked to the door with a headache, and he pushed open the wooden door. Just as he was about to walk out of the door, he heard a low voice coming from outside.
"Miss Bai, that man you brought here is so scary."
"He was like a psychopath, attacking like crazy. Several people were injured, even Miss Bai was injured."
"I really don't understand why Miss Bai wants to make friends with this kind of person. It's really too dangerous."
"Forget it, Miss Bai doesn't allow this matter to be mentioned."
…
When Shen Qiu heard this, his expression became even more silent. He knew without thinking that he was sick again.
In the past few years, his illness would flare up from time to time, causing a lot of trouble for Bai Mucheng. During this period, Shen Qiu also went to see many doctors and took a lot of medicine, but it didn't work.
That's why Bai Mucheng brought him here to practice.
But she didn't expect that it not only had no effect, but also caused her harm.
For a moment, Shen Qiu's mood became increasingly heavy. He turned his head to look at his backpack in the room. After hesitating for a while, he walked straight over.
Not long after, Shen Qiu walked towards the gate with his backpack, ready to leave.
"Where are you going?"
Just as Shen Qiu walked to the gate, a cold voice came from the right.
Shen Qiu stopped, looked at Bai Mucheng with a twisted look, and spoke hesitantly.
"I… "
"If you feel guilty about that incident, there's no need to feel guilty. It's not the first day I've known about your situation."
Bai Mucheng said calmly.
After hearing Bai Mucheng's words, Shen Qiu was touched, but he still had some concerns.
"But… "
"No buts. If you feel bad, just treat me to a meal. I've been practicing in the mountains for a while now, and I haven't had any meat during this time. I'm a little craving for it."
"good."
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
…
night.
In the Lan Mei restaurant, Shen Qiu and Bai Mucheng sat in a quiet corner.
A handsome waiter came over with a menu and asked with a smile.
"Sir, Miss, what would you like to eat?"
Shen Qiu handed the menu to Bai Mucheng and said with a smile.
"You can have some."
"Um!"
Bai Mucheng did not refuse and ordered a few dishes.
"Sir, Miss, what would you like to drink?"
“Any recommendations?”
Shen Qiu asked.
"Yes, we have a drink called Dream Dew, which has a very soft taste and is very suitable for women to drink."
The waiter highly recommended the drink Monroe.
Shen Qiu glanced at the prices on the list and his mouth twitched slightly. The price of a single bottle was 2,000 Red Alliance Coins.
Bai Mucheng said to Shen Qiu calmly.
"No need to drink something so expensive, just some beer will be fine."
"It's okay, this is it."
Shen Qiu shook his head and made up his mind. He specially invited Bai Mucheng to drink to apologize, so there was no way he would lose face.
"Right to you!"
The waiter's eyes lit up and he immediately went to make arrangements.
Soon a bottle of pink wine and dishes were served.
Shen Qiu opened the bottle of wine and poured two glasses quickly.
“I’m not a very good drinker.”
Bai Mucheng said softly to Shen Qiu.
"It's okay, just drink less."
Shen Qiu replied with a smile.
"good!"
Bai Mucheng didn't say much.
Shen Qiu then picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.
"Let's drink to our friendship."
"good!"
Bai Mucheng picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Shen Qiu.
Shen Qiu then drank it all in one gulp. The Dream Dew was slightly sweet and had a very mellow taste. It was indeed very good.
