Chapter 10 Light Sword Art
Chapter 10 Light Sword Art
The snow has all melted, and the sky has a transparent blue. Seeing that spring is coming soon, the plum blossoms have already fallen, and the petals are falling on the thin snow.
At the foot of Mount Mei, a confusion circle has been set up. The guards guarding the emperor from a distance only thought that the little emperor was standing and looking at the flowers, but they didn't know that Xiao Yan had already taken off his thick cloak, and he was wearing a tight-knit waist and sleeves underneath. Riding clothes, wearing neat black boots on the feet.
The Lich appeared first to absorb the resentment, and then stretched out his slender bony hands towards the air.
Xiao Yan stood there, watching that white but strange bone hand stretched out in the air with some obsession, and unexpectedly saw indescribable elegance in those dry bone fingers.
The lich stood with his back straight, his large robes were covered with gorgeous patterns, and a large piece of magical gemstone was dropped. The flowing of precious light showed that he was indeed of noble birth, well-educated, and demeanor calmly and gracefully.
The gem ring on the bone finger was shining, and amidst the flying fine snowflakes, a slender sword with brilliant silver light appeared in the bone hand. The blade was three-edged, thin and sharp, and the handle of the sword had exquisite The flower-shaped silver thread semicircle gauntlet, it can be seen that it is to protect the wrist of the sword bearer, and the gauntlet is inlaid with crystal clear gems.
This is the first time Xiao Yan has seen such a gorgeous light sword style, but somehow feels that if this sharp and thin long sword really stabs the opponent, it will definitely cause deep and destructive penetrating wounds.
"This is a saber made of magic mithril. A demigod-level elf blacksmith made it for me. It is very light, but it has strong hardness. It is suitable for you... The sword is also engraved with protection. The gem can block three fatal attacks for the sword-wielder, and it also has a blessing magic that increases the power of the sword-wielder, which is very practical."
The Lich easily twisted the sword in the air and handed it to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan took the sword and held it cold in his hand. It was really light. He whispered: "This is too precious... I can't have..."
The Lich said: "Take it, I used it when I was a human magician. After becoming a Lich, I don't need it anymore." Xiao Yan looked at him, puzzled, and the Lich explained: " The elves are a race full of vitality, and their blessings will not affect undead creatures."
But it was a gift full of love from his loved ones, so he kept it in the storage ring.
Xiao Yan stood up holding the sword upright, imitating the way the guards danced swords that he had seen on weekdays, and slashed forward with both hands holding the sword.
The Lich glanced at him and said, "That's not the case."
With his bone hand, he undid the mithril buttons on the mage's robe, and the mage's robe suddenly disappeared. He was still standing there with a tall and straight figure, but he changed into a set of slim casual clothes.
Snow-white and thin shirt, with layered silk scarves tied around the neckline, layers upon layers are like fragile and short-lived epiphyllum petals blooming at midnight, setting off the paleness of the lich's face like moonlight, the lantern cuffs are trimmed with gorgeous and thin white wide lace, all the buttons are They are all exquisite jewel buttons of the same color.
The dark blue vest is inlaid with golden and complicated patterns, showing his narrow waist, long and straight legs, and long leather boots on the calves, and the pointed leather boots have shallow square heels.It was a style of clothing that was completely different from this world, with exquisite details and elegance.
He stood there holding a sword in his right hand and hanging his left hand. He wore a gemstone ring on his bony hand. Slightly smiled: "Look, I will demonstrate once."
Xiao Yan watched Lich with almost fascinated eyes, retracting his sword and standing it on his chest, and then he stabbed forward. His limbs stretched out, his body was tall and his arms were long, his waist was thin and his legs were straight. He was agile and full of strength. The graceful figure is revealed to the utmost, the slender and sharp silver blade draws smart and gorgeous lines in the air, fierce and indomitable.
Where the bright silver sword pointed, there was a sleet of snow and wind, causing the nearby plum branches to shake, and the petals fluttered down, as if a plum blossom snow had fallen for a while.
Xiao Yan looked fascinated, and there was only one thought in his mind: No wonder his relatives would rather use the forbidden technique than keep him.
What a bewildering demeanor it will be when the lich boy is in the mortal body!
The demonstration didn't take too long, Lich only demonstrated a few preliminary fencing moves, and then began to teach Xiao Yan to move his body first, and then taught him to hold a sword.
It is inevitable that the icy bone hand will touch Xiao Yan, but the Lich is very measured, and they will break up with the touch.
But Xiao Yan only regretted that he couldn't let the Lich hold his hand for a longer time.
The song was wrong Zhou Langgu, but he didn't want to show his clumsiness to the Lich and disappoint him, so he studied very seriously.
Although the Lich didn't talk much, he was also an excellent teacher. He quickly taught Xiao Yan the basic footwork and the most basic sword moves of holding a sword, and then let him practice.
Xiao Yan practiced earnestly for more than an hour, until he was soaked in sweat and out of breath, he put on his cloak again and went back to the dormitory to take a bath. At first he was worried that the servants would notice his sweat-soaked obscene clothes, but the Lich just As soon as I pointed it out, the clothes all over my body were dry and soft, and there was no peculiar smell at all.
The extra meal brought by the Lich this night was a whole roast leg of lamb.
Charred on the outside and tender on the inside, it is fragrant and fragrant, sprinkled with precious pepper and spices from the Western Regions.
Xiao Yanquan, who practiced swordsmanship all afternoon, ate that leg, and then he was frightened by his own appetite. He never thought that he would have a day to eat a leg of lamb.After all, cherishing blessings and nourishing one's health, eating less and talking less, is the usual method of health preservation in the palace.
Fair-skinned and weak, gentle and noble scholar-bureaucrats are the fashion nowadays, sweating profusely, yelling wantonly, drinking in big cups, eating large pieces of meat, which is the behavior of the lowest-end peddlers.
Xiao Yan was indeed indoctrinated with this kind of concept in the past, maintaining his dignified and graceful manners, and never refused to speak loudly or anxiously.But as he grows up day by day, he has gradually felt that a monarch who lacks energy and blood, feels dizzy when he moves, and is unable to watch affairs in front of the court, even in the history books, is a sign of a subjugated country.
And the founding kings of each dynasty, whether they raised a three-foot sword to slay a white snake, from a beggar to a hero, they all have one thing in common, that is, they have extraordinary force, hold military power, and kill a bloody road in the grass. Raise your arms and call out, heroes gather under your command.
Although it was just a hazy idea, in the past one or two years, he has realized ignorantly that being kind on the surface does not necessarily treat him well. Only common interests can make people stand together, but , once interests conflict, the weaker side will be abandoned and betrayed without hesitation.
And if he is in good health, governs the country well, and can grow into a wise king, he will no longer need the empress dowager, prince regent, and assistant ministers.
Xiao Yan began to look forward to the food fed to him by the Lich every day, and cherished the time in Meishan every day, and got enough meat and exercise. After performing a set of light sword techniques, he can obviously feel the muscles in his arms and legs become firmer and stronger, and he has more energy, and he no longer feels sleepy and tired while reading.
The Lich has already started sparring with him, and he only knew the wonder of this sword technique during the sparring. The Lich said that the nobles there would fight with swords, sign a life-and-death certificate, and the duel would find witnesses, life and death. conceited.
The world is so big, but he has been confined in this small palace, saying that he is the emperor, but he has no ability to travel the world.
His physical strength began to nourish his ambition gradually. He has the strength to go further and stand taller.
