Chapter 65 Shooting yourself in the foot
The Lawrence family mansion.
Jiang Yi finished his sparring with Eula and looked at Noel, who he had forcibly pulled over to avoid cleaning.
He walked aside and whispered to Eula.
"I might not be able to come tomorrow night!"
Youla raised her eyebrows: "Why? Are you going on a date?"
"You were about to run off to meet someone else, but you stood me up. I'm going to hold a grudge!"
Jiang Yi was completely speechless after hearing this.
What do you think about day by day?
You're addicted to beating me, right?
Can't you have some private time?
Ben wanted to say to Eula again, "Don't tell Amber."
But when I think about it, saying this sounds like doing something shameful, so I forget it.
So that they don't think too much.
It's just a fight between young people after school. They want to finish the fight early, get out of the fight early, and go home early.
If the other party keeps the information confidential well, not many people will know about it.
"Noelle!"
"You look uncomfortable. I won't pull you tomorrow! When your training is over, go back to the Knights!"
Jiang Yi thought that there would be trouble in arranging a fight, so he sent Noel away in advance.
To avoid a fight, she used the Eye of God to sweep away the enemy alone.
"Okay!" Although Noelle agreed promptly, he secretly looked at Jiang Yi with a strange look.
The two-handed sword seemed to have handed him a wooden plate! Could this sudden remark be related to this?
Keep this matter in mind.
Hesitating whether to go and see Jiang Yi, who was obviously trying to hide a secret.
After chatting, they separated and went home.
In the evening, Jiang Yi read for a while.
Thinking about tomorrow's events, I feel they are so exciting and fresh that I can hardly fall asleep.
In his entire life, he had only had fights when he was a child, wrestling in a rainy field, before he traveled through time.
One on one, we won.
Tomorrow, I don’t know how many people will come from the other side.
Do I need to make some preparations?
However, my youth is gone and I am no longer a child.
Now, with the sword in my hand, I am invincible and it seems that I don’t need any preparation.
As soon as you get ready, your momentum weakens and your mood is ruined.
The way of martial arts is to be brave and strong, to be fearless and powerful.
What is fought is the will!
The passion of a boy is the best way to temper my heart and spirit for martial arts.
If there is an accident, solve it.
He placed the edgeless sword beside the bed and fell asleep on his side.
The thoughts quieted down.
Sleep without dreams, breathe without breathing, like a divine tortoise resting.
One hour can provide enough energy for a day.
In the morning, birds are singing.
Fischl still hadn't returned from his adventure mission, so I brought him breakfast.
Today there is only one portion of fisherman's toast prepared by Amber.
"call!"
Take a breath of the cool northwest wind and practice the knight's breathing method.
The entire lung is clear.
Without even taking a breath, I arrived at the training ground.
Tai Chi maintains health, military training nourishes the mind, and Xifeng swordsmanship cuts wooden stakes.
After one set, other trainees arrived one after another.
The two-handed sword trainers looked at a wooden stake standing in the middle of their field, with the word "war" engraved on it in the common language of Teyvat.
"This kid actually dares to agree!" Glancing at Jiang Yi who was looking over there, a man picked up a big sword and cut off the wooden stake.
The word "war" is divided into two parts.
"Instructor, we lost the sparring match yesterday. We will go back and learn from our mistakes. We hope to intensify our training. It would be best if we could learn from the one-handed swordsmen and develop a good relationship with them!"
A good proposal, hiding a sinister malice.
As long as they could use up Jiang Yi's energy, they would endure a little hardship.
A hundred exhausted people cannot defeat one weak person.
Moreover, he had secretly instructed the family's dietitian to prepare 100 servings of Northern smoked chicken to restore physical strength.
While pretending to be away, I ate in the grove at the side door and relied on the weak power inside to replenish my strength.
Many people, plenty of energy, one on one.
The advantage is mine!
When the instructor heard that the trainee asked to be abused, he waved his hands happily.
"Someone get on the sandbags!"
"Tied up his hands and feet, and carried on his back."
"Running with weights, practicing swordplay with weights!"
Many people's faces fell after putting them on.
What a bad idea.
Which idiot suggested this!
After a morning of training, my whole body was in so much pain that I couldn't lift my hands, feet or legs. My hands were shaking as I was holding the knife and fork to eat.
"Hurry up and tell the instructor to take it easy in the afternoon!" A group of people passing by the man complained in unison.
"I can't stand it! We don't know if Jiang Yi is tired or not, but I think his hand holding the chopsticks is very steady."
"We need to rest! We need a massage!"
The man also felt pain in his hands and feet, and looked worried: "How would I know that this is what intensified training means? I thought it was just about chopping off a few more stakes and practicing swordsmanship a few more times."
"How about! We postpone the duel?" someone suggested in a low voice, and many people's eyes lit up.
"You said to postpone it, so what? We may not be able to gather so many people next time. If we change our mind after we have finally agreed on something, won't that outsider look down on us?"
"I'll inform my family. If it succeeds, I'll give everyone a meal of Northern smoked chicken."
In the afternoon, take it a little easier.
The trainers breathed a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yi felt that the intensity of the morning training was just right.
It can really squeeze out the body's potential.
In the afternoon, it was too relaxing.
As thin as a transparent piece of wood, it was skimmed out from under the sword blade.
Cut wood like cutting tofu.
Silky, smooth, and unobstructed.
The instructor's requirements were finally met.
"Noelle, I'll take you to the car!"
After a day of training, Noelle looked at the one-handed sword with confusion, which was clean, and the two-handed sword, which was covered with piles of sawdust.
The maid's soul urged her to clean up quickly.
No matter how I looked at it, I felt uncomfortable.
Jiang Yi pulled Noelle, who took three steps forward and three steps back, around the corner and pushed her into the carriage.
He handed over Mora and shouted to the driver, "Headquarters of the Knights of Favonius!"
"Make the horse run faster!"
Wave goodbye, pull down the curtain.
I returned to the training ground where everyone had dispersed and sniffed!
"It's delicious!"
“I always feel like someone is eating chicken!”
"How about we go to the Deer Hunter and order a few portions for dinner tonight?"
Jiang Yi sat cross-legged on the wooden box and waited.
The street lights in Mondstadt lit up, and the aroma of various dishes wafted in the wind.
He couldn't help swallowing.
"Why haven't these guys who were scheduled to fight come yet? No way, they went to eat without telling me? They stood me up?"
Jiang Yi frowned and could only drink the tea provided to their trainers to fill his stomach.
"Jiang Yi, you keep your word. You are worthy of being a future knight. You are really admirable."
"Our people are here! Are you ready?"
The man secretly wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth and came in from the side door with a sparse group of people, smelling the aroma of meat.
Oh my god! This is not a martial arts ethics!
Jiang Yi looked at the two-handed sword trainers who were exhausted before leaving but full of energy when they came back.
The other party obviously stole dinner, and the food he ate was not ordinary dishes.
I took another sip of tea in anger!
The breath of life surges.
"Duel, the winner takes everything from the loser!"
"I don't ask you to take out much, but not having any stakes at all doesn't meet the requirements of a duel!"
Jiang Yi took out a piece of paper.
"The sacred contract of Morax, signed by both parties in the duel, stipulates the stakes."
"The contract is made, and those who break their promises shall be punished by eating rocks!"
