The oriental leader wears the book

When it was time to eat dinner, looking at the plate of scrambled eggs with leeks on the table, Dongfang Bubai curled his lower lip, and slowly picked up his chopsticks.

Noticing his movements, Si Kou Lingtian looked away, then buried himself in his meal.

With a glance at him, Dongfang Bubai stopped joking.

After dinner, it was already dark, Si Kou Lingtian cleaned up the dishes on the table, and then went to practice martial arts in the open space outside the house.

When he came back after practicing martial arts, he saw that the person who should have returned to the room at this hour was still sitting in the hall.

Seeing that he seemed to be waiting for something to do, Si Kou Lingtian went in and sat next to him, pouring a glass of water to drink.

"You know all kinds of martial arts, which one do you want to learn?" Dongfang Bubai said.

"Swordsmanship." Si Kou Lingtian said without hesitation.

Dongfang Bubai didn't ask him why he chose the sword, nodded, and left a sentence, "Get up early tomorrow to practice the sword." He got up and left.

Watching him go back to his room, Si Kou Lingtian didn't move.Sitting alone in the hall, through the fading lights, he seemed to see the tall man holding the little child, holding his hand and teaching him to draw a wooden sword.

Suddenly recalling the scene he thought he had forgotten, Si Kou Lingtian closed his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, but after the oil lamp on the table was completely extinguished for a while, the figure in front of the table got up and went back to the room.

The next day, before the rooster crowed, Kou Lingtian got up and went outside, took a tree branch at random and began to practice sword moves.

This practice lasted for two hours without a break.When it was dawn, he threw the stick aside to prepare breakfast.

After eating, Kou Lingtian went outside to practice sword again. Seeing this, Dongfang Bubai didn't say anything.

At noon, after wiping off his sweat, Si Kou Lingtian went back to the house to wash his face, only to find that Dongfang Bubai was not in the house as he thought.

"Brother Dongfang!" After yelling twice, Si Kou Lingtian frowned when he found no one answered.

After walking around the house and looking up the mountain, Si Kou Lingtian went to the village to look around again.

After failing to find it anywhere, Si Kou Lingtian returned to the wooden house.Seeing that it was time for dinner, he sat at the door, frowning more and more tightly.

I wondered in my heart if he had left, but felt that if he wanted to leave, it was impossible not to say anything.

Thinking of what he asked last night, it was clear that he was going to teach himself swordsmanship next, so Si Kou Lingtian shook his head again and rejected his idea of ​​leaving.

Sitting at the door for a while, Si Kou Lingtian got up after thinking about it and went to the village.

No matter when he came back, there was always something to eat.

When Dongfang Bubai came back, it was already the last hour, and he saw the person sitting at the door from a distance.

Is this waiting for me to fail?

"What are you doing sitting here?"

Hearing the sound, Si Kou Lingtian stood up abruptly. After seeing the wine jar and some other things in his hand, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let me buy whatever you want next time."

Dongfang Bubai smiled without saying a word, motioning for him to come in with him.

Just stepped into the food, saw the food on the table, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help turning his head, "Have you eaten yet?"

"I'm not too hungry, I want to wait for you to eat together." Si Kou Lingtian said, taking the things in his hand and putting them on the side cabinet.

From practicing sword practice in the morning to noon, how could it be possible not to be hungry.

There are cold noodles, mung bean soup and a few side dishes on the table, and there is nothing to eat now.Dongfang Bubai glanced at him, went to wash his hands and sat down to have a late lunch with him.

After the meal, Dongfang Bubai handed him a long wooden box.

Si Kou Lingtian opened it, and inside was a long sword with awe-inspiring aura.

Seeing the joyful expression on his face, Dongfang Bubai said: "Go try the sword."

Hearing this, Si Kou Lingtian responded, and after stepping out, he drew his sword and began to make gestures one by one.

After he practiced the basic sword posture once, Dongfang Bubai dodged and took the sword from his hand.

"Look carefully!" After saying that, Dongfang Bubai danced a set of sword techniques.

Si Kou Lingtian took a few steps back, staring intently at the red figure in front of him, quickly memorizing the sword moves in his mind.

After rehearsing a complete set of sword techniques, Dongfang Bubai casually threw the sword to him, "You do it again."

Si Kou Lingtian nodded, and after a quick memory, he started. When he used a complete set of swordsmanship, and looked at Dongfang Bubai after withdrawing his sword, he saw him enter the room without saying a word. .

In this way, Si Kou Lingtian mistakenly thought that there was something he didn't like in his practice, and when he was trying to remember, he saw him coming out with a jug of wine and sitting on the roof drinking it by himself.

After looking at the roof for a while, Si Kou Lingtian continued to practice that set of sword skills, but he would cast a glance at him after each practice.

When Si Kou Lingtian finished practicing that set of sword skills for an unknown number of times, and Dongfang Bubai was almost drunk, he said, "Not bad." At the same time, he threw a bag of things over.

Si Kou Lingtian reached out to take it, and after opening the oil-paper bag, he found some delicate green pastries inside. He took a piece and brought it to his mouth, and took a bite. It was not too sweet but tasted very good.

After swallowing the pastry, when he looked up at the roof, there were only two jars left. Even looking at those two jars, he couldn't help showing a happy smile.

The days passed as Si Kou Lingtian learned the sword day by day, and the leaves gradually turned from green to yellow.

After it became less hot, when Si Kou Lingtian mentioned it, Dongfang Bubai would occasionally walk around with him.

Sometimes they go outside the village, sometimes they go to the mountains, and sometimes they go to the town.

There was a wild pear tree on the road leading to the outside of the village. Si Kou Lingtian didn't notice it at first, but when there were more than a dozen pears on the tree, when he passed by Dongfang Bubai in the future, he would pick two of them and use them with his belt. The dagger that came out was carefully peeled and handed to him.

This wild pear doesn't grow very big, but it tastes unexpectedly sweet.What's strange is that such sweet pears grow on the side of the road, and there are no children to pick them, and the few fruits they produce go into the stomachs of two people who pass by by chance.

When going to the mountains, Si Kou Lingtian basically hunted game in front, Dongfang Bubai walked slowly behind, and occasionally caught rare prey, and roasted them directly on the mountain to eat.

As for the towns that are neither too far nor too close, they go less often, but every time they go, they buy a lot of supplies that are missing.

"Today is the autumn harvest meeting in the village, do you want to go and see it?" Si Kou Lingtian asked.

Dongfang Bubai agreed indispensably, and Si Kou Lingtian assumed that he agreed, pulled his sleeve and went out.

Before reaching the entrance of the village, I heard the sound of crackling firecrackers, and then the sound of gongs and drums.

In the open space in front of the village, except for baskets of golden grain, there are excited villagers everywhere.

After entering the village, Si Kou Lingtian didn't go in either, but he and he chose a place where there were not too many people to stand and watch the excitement.

Some of the villagers were beating gongs, some were beating drums, some were dancing dragons and lions, and the children in the village were laughing and screaming around.

Seeing the two people outside the crowd, he pulled his eldest son and said a few words on Tuesday. The child nodded, took the basket and ran away quickly.

When he ran in front of the two of them, he couldn't help taking a step back. When they looked over, he stuffed the basket in his hand and ran away.

The basket was full of food, Si Kou Lingtian looked at it, and passed it to the rice sticks.

The children in the village have been reminded by their families, so they don't go to the foot of the mountain to disturb them when they usually play.

Today is a good harvest day, the adults are in a good mood so they don't care about the children at home.

So, seeing the two people who didn't fit in with the villagers, the children took a second look and saw that they also ate the same rice noodles and dried potatoes as themselves, so they surrounded them without hesitation and ran around them.

Si Kou Ling glanced aside and saw that the people around him were not unhappy, so he ignored the group of children and took a fruit from the basket and handed it over.
