At this moment, the sky was just getting bright, and even Grandma Xu, who was always the first to get up, hadn't moved yet, and a thin layer of mist remained in the yard.

Ling Xiao took Xiao Ximen's hand, came under the tall osmanthus tree, and handed him a wooden sword.The wooden sword is not long, just suitable for five or six-year-old children, but it is not light, Xiao Ximen caught it firmly with two hands before he could prevent it.

"From today onwards, swing the sword five hundred times every morning." Ling Xiao rubbed his head, leaning on the tree trunk with folded arms.

The little body stood upright, and little Ximen grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands, and swung it down forcefully with a bang.

"Slightly separate your feet, lower your body, use half of your strength to stabilize your lower body, raise your arms a little higher, hold the sword firmly, keep the tip of the sword facing straight ahead, and swing down fast!"

The little child repeated the movements of his hands again and again, fine beads of sweat covered his forehead, slid down his temples, and wet the snow-white skirt drop by drop.

The wooden sword slashed through the air and made a faint whistling sound. Little Ximen gritted his teeth and struggled to support himself. Looking carefully, his limbs were trembling slightly, and the hand holding the sword was not as stable as before. It's usually fished out.

But even so, he still didn't stop, and didn't even turn his head to cast a look at the person who had been looking at him.

The sky is getting brighter, the sun is rising, and everywhere is golden, and there are faint voices of people in the distance.

The grandfather and grandson of the Xu family had also gotten up, but unexpectedly they didn't make a sound when they saw the movement in the yard, they just watched quietly from the side.

The last sword was swung down vigorously, "Boom!" The wooden long sword fell to the ground, and the child in the snow coat couldn't hold on any longer, his knees softened, and he fell powerlessly to the ground.

With a flash of the white shadow, Ling Xiao stretched out his arms and hugged the limp child into his arms, rolled up his sleeves and carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead, his resolute lips were pressed tightly together, feeling distressed in his heart.

Mrs. Xu walked over quickly with a bowl of water on crutches, and watched him drink up the water in the bowl panting heavily. Mister is teaching him skills, but Axue is still young after all, how can she endure such suffering, Mister should be more tolerant, if it hurts her body, it will be fine."

Lianxi comforted and said: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, since I let him do this, everything is naturally within the limit he can bear, and he will be fine." Then, he bowed his head and said to Xiao Ximen: "Now it's time to let him do this." It's just the beginning, as you get older and your physical strength gets stronger, you will only have to bear more and more, can you persevere?"

Listening to the violent heartbeat in his body, Xiao Ximen nodded vigorously, "I like practicing swords."

Ling Xiao laughed dumbfounded, is this the established destiny?Even though his life has been far from the original, but some essential things still will not change!

Mrs. Xu sighed helplessly, rubbed the child's little head and said, "Grandma is going to cook porridge for you, make mung bean cake for you, and raise A Xue to be strong, so that she will have the strength to learn skills."

Hearing that there was mung bean cake, Xiao Ximen's eyes lit up instantly. He pulled Mrs. Xu's sleeve and asked, "Mung bean cake, are you going to make it today?"

"Do it today, do it today." Mrs. Xu agreed with squinting her eyes.

"Mr. Ling," a cowardly voice suddenly broke in, and Xu Baoer said cautiously, "Can I also learn martial arts from you?"

"No!" Before Ling Xiao could answer, Mrs. Xu slapped her first, "Mr. Ling is Axue's master, not yours, so how can we make him bother. Besides, we are honest farmers. What are those beating and killing things doing!"

Although Mrs. Xu was old, the strength of this palm was unambiguous. Xu Bao'er touched the back of her painful head and looked at Ling Xiao longingly with teary eyes.

Ling Xiao didn't want to talk about it at first, but when he saw his little apprentice frowning tightly, he knew that he wanted to help Xu Baoer, so he sighed and said: "Mother-in-law doesn't have to be like this, in fact, learning martial arts doesn't have to be for the sake of Fighting, killing and killing is to strengthen the body, no matter what, it is always good to have more skills."

Mrs. Xu hesitated for a moment and said, "But why bother Mr. Ling?"

"My mother-in-law is gone now. We have lived together for five years. I watched Xiao Baoer grow up. They are all a family. How can there be no trouble? Besides, I teach one is to teach, Teaching two is also teaching, and there is no need to worry about it!" Ling Xiao's words are very beautiful, after all, he has been in the mortal world for five years, and he has learned the basics of mortals.

Seeing Mrs. Xu's face was full of emotion, thanking her repeatedly, Xu Baoer was also very happy.

After this morning's tossing, Xiao Ximen's limbs were shaking, and the hand holding the spoon was shaking non-stop. In the end, Ling Xiao even fed the gruel to drink.

But even so, this difficult morning was not over yet. Just after breakfast, Xiao Ximen was dragged into the courtyard again, where he squatted in a fragrant horse stance. In this way, he was completely rested.

Although she was very dissatisfied with her performance, Xu Baoer was even worse. She squatted on the horse for less than half a stick of incense, and then fell to the ground and couldn't get up. Seeing this, Mrs. Xu was distressed and wiped tears.

Ling Xiao grabbed the child on the ground, touched him left and right, and finally sighed: "Little Baoer, your body is not suitable for martial arts, and you don't have that talent, so forget it."

Xu Baoer burst into tears, and said with a choked voice: "Mr. Ling, I, I will definitely work hard, and I will definitely be able to practice well. Don't forget it, okay?"

Mrs. Xu was worried and heartbroken, and persuaded: "Bao'er, Mr. Ling said forget it, it's okay if you don't have talent, we don't have to practice martial arts, don't everyone in Ping'an Town have no martial arts? Just give up, huh? Just be an ordinary person and just do your duty!"

Xu Baoer became stubborn, "I don't! I want to practice martial arts, and I don't want to give up! Mr. Ling, I'm sure I can do it well."

Seeing that he didn't listen to persuasion, Mrs. Xu was so angry that she wanted to slap her again. Fortunately, she was stopped by Ling Xiao, and he quickly said: "Okay, okay, mother-in-law calm down. Since he wants to learn so much, let him learn, in fact He just lacks aptitude, and it will be difficult to advance to the ranks of first-rate masters in the future, but as long as he works hard, second- and third-rate masters are still fine."

When Xu Baoer heard it, she smiled happily, and said loudly: "I will definitely work hard."

Seeing that he was so persistent, Mrs. Xu let him go. After all, she was her only grandson, and she was very precious on weekdays. She still couldn't bear to let him feel unsatisfactory in the slightest.

Xiao Ximen glanced at the man who had squatted again, dragged his heels, and walked limply to Ling Xiao.Ling Xiao curled his lips into a smile, bent down and hugged his petite body into his arms, the fragrant and soft sweet smell came to his nostrils.

Little Ximen put his hand around his neck, and whispered in his ear, "Master also help me touch it to see if my aptitude is good? Will I become a first-class master in the future?"

Ling Xiao suppressed his smile, and pretended to grope his body for a while, Xiao Ximen twisted his body in fear of tickle, but tried his best to restrain himself.Ling Xiao patted his fleshy little butt vigorously, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "Well, little Axue's aptitude can't be a first-class master!"

"Ah?" Little Ximen's expectant face instantly collapsed, his eyes depressed.

Ling Xiao slowly leaned into his ear, and said in the same low voice: "Because, my little Axue is a superb master, and will become the number one swordsman in the world in the future!"

"Really?" Xiao Ximen's eyes lit up instantly, "Is it better than a first-class expert?"

Ling Xiao nodded, "Better than a first-rate expert!"

'

Little Ximen smiled happily, the smile on his face was brighter than the sunshine in the sky.

The warm aroma of mung bean cake wafted in the small courtyard, and Ling Xiao didn't know where to go. Xiao Ximen and Xu Baoer lay on the table alone and stared at the mung bean cake on the plate, drooling.

Both paws stretched out towards the pastry at the same time, trembling and trembling, if it wasn't for the white and smooth skin, one would almost think it was an old man on the verge of decay.

After all, Xu Bao'er swung the sword five hundred times less than Xiao Ximen, and his movements were obviously more comfortable than him.When little Ximen saw that there was a piece of pastry missing from the plate, his eyebrows furrowed fiercely.

He glanced at Xu Xiaopang, who was eating well, and shouted: "Come here!"

"Huh?" Xu Bao'er looked at him in confusion, her cheeks were puffed up, covered with crumbs of the pastry.

"Wipe your face clean and sit here." Xiao Ximen said, pointing to the place beside him.

Xu Baoer knew that he was very clean, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of his mouth and hands, then got up and slowly moved to his side.

Little Ximen pouted the corners of his lips, and said as it should, "Feed me!"

"Why do you want me to feed you?" Xu Baoer looked aggrieved, "You can eat by yourself, I'm so tired."

I am also very tired!Little Ximen hid his trembling fingers in his sleeves, and said with a cold face: "You are my bride, I will tell you to feed you and do as you please, don't you dare not listen to me?"

Xu Baoer's heart trembled, she didn't dare to refute, she obediently took a piece of mung bean cake and fed it to his lips, seeing how contented he was eating, Xu Baoer rubbed his stomach, drooling.

Finally, when he finished eating one piece, Xu Baoer couldn't wait to pick up another piece and stuffed it into his mouth. The sweetness of the pastry spread on the tip of his tongue, making him sigh with satisfaction.

A plate of mung bean cake was quickly eaten by the two of you, and the last piece was carefully wrapped in a handkerchief by Xiao Ximen, and slowly stuffed into his arms under Xu Baoer's reluctant eyes.

The two of them sat for a while to digest their food. Little Ximen picked up the wooden sword that was leaning against the table, walked to the osmanthus tree step by step, and swung it again.

Seeing this, Xu Baoer stomped her feet, and squatted on the side.In the morning, he had to spend several times on the horse stance, which was a stick of incense. He was really unqualified. There was no way, his physique was too bad.Don't say it's Xiao Ximen, even compared with ordinary people, he is much worse, it's really not material for martial arts.

When he fell to the ground with trembling legs again, little Ximen finally couldn't see it, walked up to him and said, "You'd better go and rest for a while."

Xu Baoer stubbornly shook her head, trying to get up from the ground, but failed.

Little Ximen simply squatted down and asked suspiciously: "Why do you have to practice martial arts? It's obviously not suitable."

Little Ximen's words were just pure doubts, without any malice, but his eyes suddenly dimmed, and he whispered: "I heard from them that my parents were killed by bandits, I, I just want to be It’s good if I know martial arts, at least, at least I can beat bad people.”

Little Ximen was silent. The breeze blew up and lifted the hem of their clothes. He poked the little fat man's fleshy cheek and said domineeringly, "I'll help you! You are my bride, and I will protect you from now on." of!"
