Two weeks later, at dusk.
Among the endless vines, a human figure was floating and moving erratically.
Sidestepping, stepping back, blocking, slashing, rapid shooting, every movement is well-executed, making it a pleasure to watch.
Yang Qingqing, who was sitting on the leaf sofa, was looking at Du Yu with admiration.
Especially when Du Yu drew out the arrow from his bow and stabbed the vines that were coming from behind him, his resolute look seemed to make Yang Qingqing see Du Yu's heroic figure fighting bravely on the battlefield of monsters many years later.
People say that a child's future can be seen from the age of three. Two weeks was enough for Yang Qingqing to see Du Yu's future.
The prerequisite is that the Paper Crane Disciple has sufficient talent and will not be stuck at a certain level.
Suddenly, Yang Qingqing's fingers, which were hanging naturally, moved slightly.
The muffled sound of "winter"!
Du Yu, who was strolling leisurely and easily just now, suddenly stumbled and was whipped forward by the flexible flower stem.
In a flash, Du Yu suddenly twisted his body and lay on his back on the ground.
“Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
The exquisite hunting bow in his hand fired several bullets in succession, piercing the pursuers' traps. He also kicked the ground repeatedly with his feet, trying his best to move his body backwards.
The little fire fox on the shoulder had fireballs shooting everywhere in front of its face, and the dark flame burning above its head was also stirring up whirlpools of wind and fire, helping its master to repel pursuers.
Even so, there were still some flexible flower stems that took a strange route, cleverly passed through the blockade net, and headed straight for Du Yu's face.
The small hunting bow gave Du Yu better operability. The sharp blade of the bow arm slashed horizontally repeatedly, and while he was pushing off the ground and backing away, Du Yu, who was lying on his back, noticed something was happening to his side!
"Huh?" Du Yu looked over suddenly, thinking it was an enemy attacking, but he saw the tail of a gorgeous nightgown and a pair of white legs.
It turned out that he had retreated to the leaf sofa.
Du Yu quickly drew his bow and arrow and continued to repel the pursuers.
As he kept backing away, he naturally saw the palm hanging naturally on the outside of the armrest of the sofa above him.
The slender jade finger that gently tapped was the commander of this cruel training ground and the source of all Du Yu's pain. Du Yu wanted to chop off her hand!
"Let's stop here." A cold voice came from above my head.
"Huh." Du Yu let out a long sigh, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and slowly sat up. The ferocious flower stem pursuers also swayed and slowly retreated.
Yang Qingqing leaned over and looked down at Du Yu who was standing beside the armrest: "Stretch your legs again."
"Ah." Du Yu's face turned bitter, but the firewood tree had already stretched out its soft branches and wrapped around Du Yu's ankles.
"Be gentle, Brother Shu!" Du Yu was shocked, "Be gentle~"
What does it mean to be forced to cheat
Fortunately, Du Yu is only 17 years old this year and has good plasticity. At least after two weeks of hellish special training, his muscles and bones have been fully mobilized.
Xiao Yan jumped in front of Du Yu, looking at his grinning face, then she sat down on the ground, spreading her short legs forward and backward with ease.
"Hmm~" Xiao Yan tilted her little head and blinked at Du Yu.
Through the contract, Du Yu seemed to understand a sentence: You are so weak~
Du Yu rolled her eyes in annoyance. She had learned bad things from Xiao Fen Yang!
The little firefly also floated in front of Du Yu, and seemed to want to look down on its master. However... it overestimated its own strength. It was just a ball of black flame and had no legs at all!
So awkward!
Xiao Youying reacted and bumped into Du Yu's forehead with an embarrassed look on her face, then returned to her acupuncture point home.
Yang Qingqing smiled, leaned over and picked up Xiaoyan, and put her on her knees: "Don't be naughty."
"Hmm~" Xiao Yan jumped easily onto the woman's shoulder, poked out her furry little head, and rubbed Yang Qingqing's cheek affectionately, but she dared to stop there.
After this period of training, Xiao Yan really didn't dare to act rashly when facing Yang Qingqing.
Yang Qingqing stood up and walked to the balcony, looking at the beautiful sunset in the sky, and said softly: "Don't practice extra tonight, go to bed early and get enough rest, tomorrow is the 23rd."
Du Yu, who was forced to do splits by the fire tung tree, looked up at the wall in the distance in order to divert his attention.
After the leaves retreated like the tide, the huge living room returned to its original appearance.
The wall clock showed the time, and there was also a small electronic calendar inside the dial: July 22, 996 in the Great Xia calendar.
Every time he saw the year "996", it seemed to remind Du Yu that he had come to another world. After all, in his previous life, Du Yu was a person from the 21st century, but in this other world, the year had not yet reached 1000.
Of course, this world has more than just a thousand years of history. If you trace back from the first year of the Yuan Dynasty, you can find many, many historical dynasties.
Normal times.
It’s just that people in later generations set the year when the demon spirit culture was born as the first year and started a new year counting.
This is probably the rare time when historians from the five continents can come to a consensus. To put it cruelly, the history of the five continents can be described as "fragmented".
Especially after the first year, there are many blank periods in the history of Daxia. In those ancient times when monsters were rampant, the human race, which had not yet found a way to resist the monsters, even survival became a problem.
At this moment, Du Yu did not reminisce about the past with the number "996", but instead set his sights on the date of July 22.
Tomorrow will be the day he enters the Shadow Gu Tower.
With the special training of Youth Teacher and the sparring of Huotong Tree, Du Yu, who practiced hard day and night, finally got the chance!
There are countless blanks in the history after the first year. Perhaps this suddenly appearing Shadow Gu Tower can help people add a line of text in the history books.
Everything depends on tomorrow.
"Your Xiaoyan has made great progress. Although she is at the peak of the mortal level, the output strength of her demon skills is at the top silver level." Yang Qingqing held Xiaoyan in one hand and gently touched her nose with her finger.
Judging from the sparks alone, the size of the fireball can be used to determine the level of the demon skill.
Heroic Bronze, fireball diameter less than 10 cm.
Unyielding Silver, fireball diameter 11~20 cm.
Although the sparks released by Xiao Yan were of Heroic Bronze quality, their scale and output strength had already reached the highest level of Indomitable Silver quality.
Yang Qingqing looked at the little fire fox wagging its tail happily and said softly, "I'm not sure whether you should take her into the Shadow Gu Tower."
Du Yu: "Ah? Hiss..."
As he spoke, Du Yu changed from forward and backward splits to sideways splits, with the fire tung tree pressing his back and his chest to the floor.
"嘤!" Xiaoyan could already understand human language. As smart as she was, her face suddenly fell and she jumped out of Yang Qingqing's hands.
Yang Qingqing was surprised. This was the first time Xiaoyan took the initiative to leave. Usually, as long as the little guy was allowed, he would be eager to stay by her side.
Xiao Yan ran to Du Yu's face in a flash, gently bumped her forehead against Du Yu's, and turned into a breath of fire demon, which merged into Du Yu's body.
Seeing this scene, Yang Qingqing felt helpless.
The relationship between the master and the pet is very deep. Am I the bad guy
Du Yu said with a grin, "She is still at the peak of the mortal level, and is still within the mortal level range. There should be no problem. Master Qing... Hiss, it hurts, it hurts."
Yang Qingqing: "Be gentle."
Hearing this, the branches that were tied to Du Yu's ankles slowly lowered Du Yu's legs back to the floor.
Du Yu was really about to cry because of the pain. Why are you making candy figures here
I practice martial arts, not gymnastics. Do I need to bend my joints when stretching my legs
Du Yu lay weakly on the ground in the shape of a Chinese character "土". He said in a trembling voice, "I really need Xiao Yan. After all, she can break through all the defenses of the demon-controlling disciples. She is much stronger than my offensive ability and can also seamlessly connect with my arrows."
"Well, I'll think about it again." Yang Qingqing said, and walked towards the stairs.
But as soon as she stopped walking up the stairs, she suddenly said, "Du Yu."
"Ah?" Du Yu supported himself on the ground with one hand and stood up with a grin. Since it was Yang Qingqing who took the initiative to summon him, the fire tung tree did not stop Du Yu.
Yang Qingqing's face showed a hint of appreciation and relief: "During this period, your performance has been very good, and your teacher is very satisfied. Don't be too stressed about tomorrow's task, just do your best."
Du Yu opened his mouth and finally said one word: "Yes."
Until Yang Qingqing's figure disappeared on the stairs, Du Yu was pressed to the ground by Huotong Tree on his back.
This time, Du Yu had no intention of grinning.
Because this is the first time that Yang Qingqing calls herself a "teacher". So... I am officially accepted by Teacher Qing and accepted as her disciple
Du Yu was secretly happy in his heart, he knew that he had reached a new level!
You know, there are huge differences between demon spirit students.
Ordinary students are more like college students, taking classes in groups, self-study courses, and elective courses, and listening to whatever teachers are available.
The relationship between Du Yu and Yang Qingqing is more like that between a graduate student and his supervisor, or that between a master and his apprentice in ancient times.
He only needs to be responsible to Master Qing.
Du Yu's sweaty forehead rested against the floor, a happy smile on his face.
Teacher Qing is a good woman. Her previous worries about being "set in difficult situations" were completely groundless.
She is powerful and rich, and most importantly, she has so many rare preserved fruits at home...
Although she was overly polite and always gave people a slight sense of alienation, as they spent these days together, their relationship naturally became closer.
Wow~ I am so lucky!
In the future, under her protection, I will become a god... Eh
"Eh?" Du Yu was still immersed in the beautiful dream of being Master Qing's direct disciple, when he suddenly felt himself soaring into the air
The fire tung tree actually tied up Du Yu's hands and legs, stretched him and lifted him up!
"Hiss... It hurts, it hurts, please tear me apart!!!"
Upstairs, Master Qing's voice could be heard faintly: "Be gentle."
The fire tung tree was unusually well-behaved, and slowly put down the little sugar man that had been kneaded so wantonly.
Du Yu looked at the firewood tree with resentment on his face, "You broken tree, wait for me! I have just entered the sect, wait for me to become Master Qing's beloved disciple in the future..."
I'll peel off a layer of your bark!
Heat some oil in a pan, then apply some salt and pepper powder on it and feed it to Xiao Fen Yang as spicy chips!
