    Last day.

    Afternoon.

    The stillness of the room, as if ignited by sunlight, became noisy in the hazy light, rising and falling back and forth in the overlapping shadows.

    Wu Ying Xue is leaving, healed from her injuries and ready to find out the truth.

    As such, she was packing up her own belongings.

    I say I’m packing, but there’s really not much to bring.

    She had very few belongings; after all, the fall into the Xu system house at the time was supposed to be an accident.

    “No?”

    After the young girl had been busy for a while, wrapping her lance in camouflage so that it no longer looked conspicuous, she stood still, looking at the empty room for a moment.

    The hissing of the summer cicadas is nearing its end.

    The hot sunlight cuts shadows.

    The 16-year-old girl stood in the room where she had lived for almost two months.

    Suddenly there was a strong illusion of being a world away.

    Her past has 16 years, a wonderful in the eyes of ordinary people, a luxury that ordinary people can only dream of, but after living in Qingniu Town for two months, Wu Yingxue feels that that kind of life has been over for a long time.

    It’s as if it’s not two months, but a year, or even longer.

    “Inexplicably still a little upset ……”

    The young girl murmured, then closed the door and window, and by the time she opened it again, her dress had undergone a change.

    The original red and white robe was too conspicuous, if she wore it directly back, the girl was certain that it would not take long for her whereabouts to be discovered by the officials.

    So.

    She specifically asked the Xu system to find a dress.

    for her to camouflage.

    “Next, it’s just a matter of time”, Wu Ying Xue, who had finished changing, looked sideways at the hot sun outside the window.

    Wu Ying Xue was prepared to leave at night, the dark and gloomy environment was more conducive to action, and could greatly reduce the possibility of being seen by the townspeople.

    At the same time, it would cover up the fact that she was out of the Xu family’s house.

    Only.

    Right now there was still a short time before the sun set and night completely enveloped the sky.

    What to do to pass the boring time?

    Teenage girls don’t know.

    Carrying her lance on her back and her tiny bundle, she pushed open the wooden door of her room for the last time and, with a light step, stepped over the worn and age-carved wooden threshold.

    “Hoo-!”

    “Hoo-!”

    The doorway corresponded to the empty practice area in the compound.

    The Xu system still stood under the hot sun as usual, ignoring the cold and the heat, ignoring the clouds and the sun, and stood and threw punches in the same way day after day.

    Sweat drips and punches are fierce.

    Every punch, every roar of qi and blood shook the air with blurred distortions, like the high beating of a vibrant heart.

    “Mister’s punches are deeper ……”

    Wu Ying Xue sighed in her heart.

    Bewilderment flashed across the small face.

    During this time, she had been studying under the Xu system, but for some reason, the distance between her and the Xu system grew wider and wider.

    It was a bizarre growth that was neither scientific nor martial.

    It was as if the Xu system was the protagonist in a fictional talk book.

    As soon as you start practicing martial arts, the level of martial arts will rub off on you.

    “How is that kind of thing possible?” , Wu Ying Xue laughed at her own thoughts.

    She put down her lance and bag for the time being and sat on the threshold of the room, the blazing sunlight just enough to be shaded by the eaves of the roof to provide a shady spot for the girl.

    The young Sheriff who doesn’t know how to pass the time.

    made the same choice while recuperating from an injury.

    Watch the Hsu system practicing martial arts.

    Green bricks and red tiles, flying eaves and corners, with dark green unknown plants crawling all over the walls, creating a quiet and incomparable atmosphere in the time of summer and fall.

    The 16 year old girl just watched, silently watching the Xu system throw punches and looking away from the blackened mountains.

    It was an indescribable letting go.

    Completely forget about the passage of time.

    After a long time, the scorching sunlight had a tendency to subside, and the sky was no longer so bright, the young girl finally couldn’t help but ask the confusion in her heart.

    If she didn’t ask at this time, she wouldn’t necessarily have the opportunity to do so when she left Green Ox Town.

    “Sir, don’t you really get tired of practicing boxing like this every day, I’ve never seen you relax and rest any day.”

    Facing Wu Ying Xue’s inquiry.

    Xu System paused slightly in his movements, looked up at the setting sun, and slowly retracted his boxing stance.

    His answer was dry, “Of course I’m tired.”

    “Huh?”

    The overly dry answer seemed to greatly exceed the girl’s expectations, and her face showed her dismay.

    She had thought that the answer given by a hard-working martial artist like Xu would be the classic “not bitter, not tired”, “perseverance is more important than anything else” or something like that.

    However.

    Department Xu’s reply disproved Wu Ying Xue’s suspicions.

    He stood still, constantly adjusting his agitated qi and blood, his breath resonating with his heart chambers, little by little completing the circumferential cycle, answering the young girl:

    “People get hungry when they don’t eat.”

    “Man thirsts without water.”

    “People get cold without clothes.”

    “In the same way that I would get tired of practicing boxing every day, I would also find it hard and torturous.”

    “No one is perfect, without flaws and mistakes, without fear of hard work and exhaustion; people like that don’t exist, at least not me.”

    Receive the credit.

    Pingback.

    Take a deep breath.

    After Xu Xiang finished combing his qi and blood, he turned to look at Wu Ying Xue, who was sitting at the threshold.

    He never felt, he was some kind of saint, much less felt the need to boast about something.

    From the beginning to the end, Department Xu considered himself an ordinary person, only slightly more fortunate to be able to eat the multiple soft meals of his sister, disciple, and teacher.

    But the performance of the Hsu system, the words of the Hsu system.

    But it caused Wu Ying Xue to fall into a long silence.

    The light of the setting sun ran out of its last gasp as the sun slowly fell into the distant skyline, the junction rippling with gold, the ripples of bitterness in the heart of a young girl.

    She felt that her previous thinking was too childish and simple compared to the Xu system.

    It’s so overwhelming.

    She grew up in the royal residence, and King Ding Yuan named her Ying Xue, meaning that he hoped the young girl would be as quiet and beautiful as soft snow.

    But as things go, they often don’t go as well as they should.

    Contrary to her name, the young girl’s character is as passionate as a blazing fire. She grew up disliking women’s honor and loving martial arts and chivalrous books, dreaming of becoming a warrior or general who protects the country and the people.

    Peaceful life in the Imperial Capital.

    The many conveniences of Sheriff status.

    A carefree experience from a young age.

    Under the mutual influence of many factors, Wu Ying Xue’s perception of the world in her heart was shallow, with only a mere one point for the human race and demons.

    She thought that the Great Qian was good and sheltered all races.

    She feels that demons are bad and that the Hundred Thousand Mountains threaten people’s lives.

    She dreamed that she could become a chivalrous woman in the storybook, cutting through 100,000 mountains with a single sword and saving the people from the fire.

    But these ……

    “It’s all wrong.”

    After the sunset comes the rising of the full moon.

    The bright moonlight poured over the earth as Wu Ying Xue stood up from the threshold, once again carrying her lance and lifting her bag.

    “If it hadn’t been for this attack, if it hadn’t been for your teachings, perhaps, I would have gone my whole life without discovering the truth.”

    “Thank you.”
