Chapter 247: Sword Saint's Wish
The Ice Sword Master didn't answer directly, but beckoned to the side: "Lim, come over here." ”
The other party didn't hesitate, just walked over obediently, still with the same expressionless face.
Such a well-behaved Lim is indeed rare. Except for Lu Xi, the three no-girl girls basically don't listen to anyone, including Orucello.
The female swordsman patted Limu's head affectionately, and the latter did not object, not even react with rejection. This grandmother-level beauty with a supermodel body is more than half a head taller than the petite and delicate Lim, and she makes intimate movements so naturally, but she looks like a mother and daughter.
"The more I look at this girl, the more I like it." The female sword saint looked at the girl with affection and even a hint of maternal gaze: "I have also officially accepted her as an apprentice." It's really unexpected, when I was alive, I didn't meet a successor, but after I died, I met such an excellent disciple, and it was really good to be able to become a heroic spirit. ”
"It's also an honor for Lim to be recognized by you!" Lu Xi glanced at Limu. It's just that I haven't seen it for a long time, and the strength of the three no-girl girls has broken through the first order, and it is only half a step away from breaking through the golden position.
It seems that Lim also received a grandpa, no, grandma's gift package!
"She's got a very solid foundation and she's very talented. After half a day, it was like a sponge absorbing all the knowledge I had taught her. I have nothing left to teach her, and the rest is up to her to comprehend. ”
"You're too much of an award." Lu Xi couldn't help but say, "The name of the Sword Saint is not something that can be called casually. Your casual swordsmanship can make an ordinary swordsman enjoy it for a lifetime, and even if Lim is a genius, it is impossible for him to get all your true inheritance in a short period of time, right? The compliment is too much. But it will teach the child badly. ”
Unless Lim also has a cheating system like ours, and has millions of experience points and hundreds of skill points. Instantly max out all of your old skills. By that time, of course. Your reaction is not to feel the genius of the other person, but to cut it open and study it, right?
"Did I think I was teaching her swordsmanship?" The Sword Master smiled and shook his head, "How could I use the method of carving wood to carve beautiful jade?" Besides, even if I wanted to teach it one by one, I didn't have time at all. I sparked Lim's anger and taught her all the experience I'd learned about the enemy and some tricks. In the field of swordsmanship, only the sword skills that you have comprehended in actual combat practice are the most suitable moves for yourself, and the only way for the sword holder to break through the door of the 'Dao' is also the only way. It's like planting a tree. All I did was to plant a seed, and whether it will grow into a towering tree or a crooked neck tree can only depend on her own efforts and chance. ”
Although this statement sounds a bit mysterious, Lu Xi feels that it is quite reasonable, and he also knows that what the female sword saint taught to Limu can never be as simple as "experience and skills in facing the enemy", it must be the real essence and core of the sword. He bowed to the Sword Saint and said in an unprecedentedly sincere tone, "Thank you very much for cultivating Lim. ”
"Thank you, Teacher!" Lim also bowed deeply. The big emerald eyes were full of emotion and gratitude. She is a three-nothing girl, and she doesn't know much about those high-sounding polite words, but who is genuinely good to herself, she is more sensitive than most people.
"Don't rush to thank me just yet." The female sword saint smiled and helped the two of them up: "I said it." I have something to do with you, and of course, it has to do with Lim. ”
"Oh?" The female swordmaster and Lim are masters and apprentices. But in the strict sense of the word, it has not been known for a day. She has been dead for half a century, what can she have to do with Lim, who is less than twenty years old?
The female sword master seemed to see Lu Xi's question. He made a gesture to be quiet, and then said, "You probably know, too. Not only am I not a Nord nobleman, I wasn't even born in Virginia, but I grew up in an orphanage in the Dominion of the Frozen Valley. ”
Lu Xi nodded. The background of the Ice Sword Saint Phines is naturally not a secret, in fact, she was born as an orphan girl and eventually became the greatest swordsman of that era, which can be called one of the most inspirational legends in human history.
"I don't have parents, but maybe it's a great luck in misfortune, the orphanage that adopted me is funded by several kind-hearted chambers of commerce, and the grandmothers who manage it are a bit old-fashioned, but they are also good people, all in all, my childhood and adolescence were also quite happy." The female sword master smiled and said, "After I became an adult, because I still had some confidence in my swordsmanship talent, I chose to become an adventurer and became a profession, and finally gradually achieved the reputation of 'Sword Master'. It's a pity, in my whole life, not only did I not meet a successor worthy of cultivation, but also I did not meet a good man worthy of temptation. ”
“…… Yes, is that so? Isn't that an adult? Lu Xi scolded the overlord who was "passing on the merits" to Artoria.
The Swordmaster shrugged, "Aizel is a friend to make and a lord to follow, but I really don't feel that way about him. Besides, it is enough for one person in the family to be strong, and one more person is sure to turn the sky upside down. If I could, I would rather find a good man who could tolerate me, be considerate of me, and serve me hot meals when I got home. ”
Tsk, to put it bluntly, is it just to find a family to cook men? This is a typical leftover woman mentality who stands and talks without backache, and you will definitely not be satisfied if you really want to get a little man when the time comes. Well, how did it turn out? Silly, right? I never got married.
Although the above-mentioned belly slander flashed in Lu Xi's stomach, there was naturally no change in his expression, and Phineth continued: "What I want to ask you to do is to find my daughter. ”
"You...... Your daughter? Lu Xi couldn't help but be dumbfounded: "Didn't you say that you haven't met a good man worth tempting?" ”
Just like what the Sword Master himself said, whether it is the official history or the wild history, the female Sword Master has no history of marriage, it can be said that as the most popular idol in the minds of contemporary Nord people, she is very dedicated. But now, she herself said that she also has a daughter...... Could it be that there is a plot of a bloody eight-o'clock series behind it? Could it be that I just got involved in a shocking gossip that happened half a century ago?
Maybe Lu Xi finally couldn't keep the calm on his face, and the female sword saint immediately slashed at her face door with a hand knife.
No wonder he is so attached to Lim, and even the reaction is exactly the same.
"Where do you think you're going?" The female sword saint said angrily: "It's my adopted daughter." Warriors like us who pursue fighting blood, no matter how exciting life is, always need a place to call 'home' where the body and mind can rest. And my home is naturally the Aster Orphanage where I was raised. No matter how busy I am, I go back to the orphanage at least once every three years to bring some gifts for the children and leave a sum of money for the orphanage. Later, I met a child who was particularly close to me and adopted her as my adopted daughter. ”
I see...... Tsk, stories without gossip are just too boring.
"It was a very talented child, and I had made up my mind to make her my heir, but unfortunately it didn't happen."
"This ...... Why? ”
"Isn't this nonsense, of course because I'm dead? When I died, she was only ten years old, and her body hadn't even grown yet, so it would be good to do some basic training at most, how could she learn my sword skills? ”
…… That's what I'm going to say.
In other words, when the female sword saint met this adopted daughter, she was already in her old age.
"Do you want us to go see her on your behalf?" Lu Xi asked.
A trace of remembrance flashed on the female sword saint's face, and she muttered and said slowly: "The one I can't rest assured of the most is her." If I can see her living well, I have no regrets. ”
“…… Your adopted daughter, if she were still alive, would be an old lady of almost sixty years old by now. For more than half a century, the vicissitudes of life have been people, and the time to find and paint has gone to the sea. Lu Xi was a little distressed: "Besides, even if we find it, knowing that her children and grandchildren are happy, we can't inform you?" ”
"I can know." The female swordmaster smiled.
"Huh? What do you say? ”
"If you can find her, then I'll know."
"That sounds like an unconvincing ......"
"I know it's not convincing, but it's a mystical feeling, a feeling that is difficult to explain even with divine power. In short, if you take her to my grave to burn paper, and let her say, 'I'm doing well,' then I'll know." How? Don't understand? Hehe, you'll understand when you become a father. The female sword saint laughed and patted Lu Xi's shoulder: "Of course, you must inform me when the time comes, who the child's mother will be." ”
…… There is certainly not just one child, and there will not be only one mother. However, who is going to sue you for a faint soul!
"I left a sum of money for the child, and in addition to that, the sword 'Two-Headed Dragon' that I used when I was young also left with her, as well as some other gadgets. If you can find her, give it to Lim as a gift. Otherwise, I, as a teacher, wouldn't even be able to give a meeting gift, and it would be disgraceful to spread it. ”
Listening to the name, you know that it is not ordinary, and it is estimated that it is Limu's most capable double sword.
"Thank you for your kindness, but Lim already has a sword flame meteor." Lu Xi replied.
"My heir, how can a pair of swords be." The female swordmaster patted Lu Xi's shoulder vigorously again, her eyes brightened, revealing a proud and sly smile. (To be continued......)
PS: Does this count as two shifts today? Well, I suddenly felt that once I lost it, it was really difficult to pick it up.
