Chapter 59: Run a hundred laps first!(1/2)
He stared at the weapons on the shelf for a long time, and finally his eyes fell on one of the heavy swords.
His expression became serious, and he walked over without thinking.
Thinking of Shen Chuhan holding this heavy sword last night, he felt quite invincible, and he suddenly felt that this sword was domineering and handsome.
Shen Chuhan on the side saw the look on Xuruoxue's face, and a trace of confusion flashed across his face. This was the first time he saw Xuruoxue's look like this.
Deep and calm, there is determination in his eyes.
Shen Chuhan frowned, as if someone had shot an arrow into his heart, and a strange feeling spread.
Xuruoxue stretched out her hand to pick up the heavy sword, but felt her hand sink.
Why is this sword different from what she thought? It shouldn't be that heavy.
Seeing Xuruoxue's confused look, Shen Chuhan couldn't help but chuckle.
Then he walked forward, picked up the heavy sword, and held a beautiful sword flower on his arm.
He began to dance with the sword in the courtyard. There was a hint of cold murderous intent in the young man's eyes, and he showed his coolness in every move.
Xuruoxue's heart was beating rapidly. She couldn't help but put her hand to cover her chest and looked at the young man in front of her.
The young man wearing bright clothes and an angry horse, strikes fiercely and has a sharp momentum, making people fall under his majesty.
This is the real Shen Chuhan!
"Xuruoxue, you can't even pick up a weapon, how can you talk about learning martial arts?"
Shen Chuhan retracted his heavy sword, walked slowly to Xuruoxue, and looked at her intently.
"I can." Xuruoxue said eagerly and took the epee over.
Unfortunately, the epee was too heavy for her, and she almost fell down when she tried hard.
Xuruoxue's face flushed red and her earlobes turned red.
Shen Chuhan shook his head gently: "This sword was specially made by me. It's normal that you can't pick it up."
"Your arm strength is too weak for martial arts practice." Shen Chuhan said calmly.
"How can you know if you don't try?" Xuruoxue asked back.
Holding the heavy sword in his hand, he danced a few times imitating Shen Chuhan's movements just now.
Shen Chuhan's expression was condensed and he said unceremoniously: "I don't have any talent for martial arts, so I'd better learn to ride and shoot honestly."
"You were planning to teach me just now, how could you go back on your word?" Xuruoxue said unwillingly.
Just as Xuruoxue was about to say something more, she saw Shen Chuhan's expression softening, "People who practice martial arts must have physical strength. You are not suitable now, and I don't think you can persist."
"Stop looking down on others!" Xuruoxue said loudly and unconvinced.
"I will stick to whatever I make up my mind," Xuruoxue said word for word.
There was a trace of determination in his expression that could not be refused.
"Yesterday you strode on horseback..." Shen Chuhan thought of Xuruoxue's lazy appearance yesterday and felt a little unbelievable.
Xu Ruoxue felt that Shen Chuhan looked down on her because of what happened yesterday, and she felt even more uncomfortable.
Before, Xuruoxue just thought that she only needed to cure diseases and save people, and earn a little money on the way. Learning ancient Chinese literature, riding and shooting, etc. were just trivial things.
But today, she suddenly felt that she had many shortcomings.
She also wanted to help her mother get rid of slavery, so she had to deal with Duke Xu's government.
What if the eldest lady and second lady of Duke Xu's Mansion come to trouble them again? She can't always wait for others to save her.
So when Shen Chuhan was playing with the gun just now, she thought a lot about it. She didn't have to overwhelm herself with her skills. The most important thing was to protect herself.
Shen Chuhan raised his eyebrows slightly. If he changed his mind just because he was afraid of being in danger, he still wouldn't believe it.
What's more, practicing martial arts is a very hard job, and it is impossible for Xuruoxue, a weak woman, to persevere.
Seeing Xuruo's snowy appearance, Shen Chuhan's expression softened a bit: "First run around the yard a hundred times and let me see if you are suitable."
Xuruoxue responded happily and started running around the yard.
Shen Chuhan's original intention was to let Xuruoxue retreat when she faced difficulties.
But Xuruoxue seemed to be deliberately competing with Shen Chuhan, running around the yard sweating profusely.
She had never exercised with such a strong intensity before, and by the twentieth lap, Xuruoxue couldn't hold on any longer.
After a second thought, he couldn't let Shen Chuhan look down on him, so he gritted his teeth and continued running forward, his eyes full of tenacity.
Fortunately, the yard is not very big, so I can run a hundred laps.
After running more than sixty laps, Xuruoxue was already a little exhausted, and her pace was becoming more and more unsteady. Now the only thing supporting her was the thoughts in her heart.
Xuruoxue gritted her teeth, she would definitely persevere.
At this time, Xuruoxue's pink clothes were covered with dust, and Shen Chuhan lowered his eyes, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
"Master, will something happen to the young lady? She looks like she is about to die." Zhui Feng couldn't help but say.
Shen Chuhan's deep pupils turned with faint light.
"Xuruoxue, don't run away." Shen Chuhan's eyes darkened.
"I can definitely do it." Xuruoxue breathed heavily.
Xuruoxue recited the numbers silently in her heart: ninety-eight, ninety-nine, one hundred...
Her vision blurred for a while, and she fell at Shen Chuhan's feet with only a sense of faith, muttering: "Brother Six, I did it."
Shen Chuhan took a deep look at Xuruoxue and remained silent.
Xu Ruoxue thought he was going to regret it, so she panicked and grabbed Shen Chuhan's trouser leg: "Brother Six, you won't regret it, right?"
It took a lot of effort for her to persist until now.
Just as Shen Chuhan was about to continue speaking, his eyes fell on the figure at the door.
So, he quickly raised his hands and called: "Mother."
Xuruoxue gasped for air and turned her head to look over: "Godmother..."
Xu Yan looked at the scene in front of her and looked at Shen Chuhan with dissatisfaction: "Did you bully your sister?"
"No, no, Brother Six didn't bully me." Xu Ruoxue quickly let go of Shen Chuhan's legs and sat on the ground.
Xu Yan quickly stepped forward and helped Xuruoxue up: "Aren't you kids learning archery? Why are you in such a mess?"
Xuruoxue leaned into Xu Yan's arms and took a deep breath: "Brother Six was teaching me martial arts just now."
Xu Yan glared at Shen Chuhan: "You can't roll on the ground while practicing martial arts!"
"Brother Six was inspecting me just now. It's okay, godmother." Xuruoxue said with a smile.
After speaking, he looked at Shen Chuhan, winked at him and said, "Sixth brother has agreed to accept me as his apprentice, right? Sixth brother?"
"Is that true?" Xu Yan looked at Shen Chuhan. This son rarely got close to others, and it was already very strange to teach Xuruoxue archery. Unexpectedly, he would directly accept her as his disciple, which was a bit incredible.
Shen Chuhan received Xu Yan's suspicious look, nodded helplessly, and said in a low voice: "That's it."
Xu Yan stared at him with a cold face and disapproval: "Even so, we can't ignore Xue'er's body!"
Shen Chuhan stood aside obediently and listened to Xu Yan's admonishment.
"Your sister is a girl, so you should be gentler to girls..." Xu Yaner said.
"Son, I know." Shen Chuhan responded knowingly.
Xuruoxue also took the opportunity to say: "Godmother, my mission for today should be completed, I will go back first."
Hearing this, Xu Yan quickly followed Xuruoxue and said, "I'll take you back."
In this way, Xu Ruoxue was helped into her room by Xu Yan. After resting for a while, she finally calmed down. Her legs were trembling all the time.
Xu Yan gently squeezed her legs: "You must have a good rest."
"Thank you, godmother, I understand." Xuruoxue felt warm in her heart and thanked her softly.
"I thought I was going to see how you were doing in archery. Why do you want to practice martial arts?" Xu Yan asked in confusion.
Xuruoxue said with a smile: "I just feel that I am too weak and want to learn some self-defense methods. Fortunately, Sixth Brother does not dislike me."
Xu Yan sighed: "You and your daughter have suffered so much over the years. Since you have your heart, I won't stop you. Don't work too hard and take care of yourself."
"I understand." Xu Ruoxue nodded obediently.
"If your sixth brother treats you badly, tell me and see how I deal with him!" Xu Yan said seriously.
Xuruoxue blinked and couldn't help laughing: "Well, if Brother Six dares to bully me, I will tell you."
"Okay, you have a good rest first. If you feel uncomfortable, you can rest for the rest of the day." Xu Yan said with some distress as she looked at Xuruoxue's trembling legs.
"No, no need." Xuruoxue quickly refused, "I'll just take a rest."
Xu Yan warned her a few more times before leaving with peace of mind.
In less than a day, everyone in the General's Mansion knew that Xuruoxue wanted to practice martial arts.
