After I finished speaking, the expression on Kong Yuan's face couldn't help but be a little moved.
He opened his mouth slightly, as if he didn't believe it.
But I took a step forward and took his woodcutter.
"Sir, let's first take a look at how much of this sword intention I have understood..." I said.
"good!"
When I heard Kong Yuan's promise, I smiled slightly and held the rusty woodcutter tightly in my hand.
This woodchopping knife is a little heavy, and the blade on it is obviously blunted. If you are an ordinary person, you probably won't use this knife to chop things.
But Kong Yuan, a swordsman, didn't care at all!
In his opinion, as long as there is a knife in the heart, even if the hand is a woodcutter, so what?
I grabbed the woodcutter and fixed my gaze on an old tree next to me with the same leaves.
Kong Yuan glanced at the old tree I selected, seeming a little curious.
I smiled and said, "When I saw Mr. Kong Yuan choosing trees just now, he knew some truth."
"Tell me about it..."
"God has the virtue of good health. Don't practice February grass, don't kill March fish, and October is not easy. All plants and trees have their destiny..." I said.
In February, the grass that has been devastated by a winter will burst out with vitality and sprouts again. Don't trample them easily. This is also a kind of life.
In March, it is the time when fish breed and lay eggs, and the fish you eat or kill may very well have roes in its belly that have been protected for a whole winter...
When Kong Yuan was cutting down trees just now, I saw that he deliberately chose an old tree with withered leaves. Obviously, this reclusive master should be very taboo about killing.
"That's right. All plants and trees have a destiny, and all living beings are equal!" Kong Yuan showed a glimmer of admiration in his eyes.
Soon, under Kong Yuan's gaze, I approached an old tree.
I reached out and tapped the old tree gently. The material of this old tree is very hard, and ordinary knives cannot cut it at all...
I took a deep breath and quickly rehearsed in my mind every tiny movement Kong Yuan made when he pulled out the knife.
The next second, the woodcutter in my hand had already struck the place where I had just struck the old tree!
At this moment, I closed my eyes slightly. At this moment, I felt that what I was holding in my hand was not a woodcutter, but a sharp weapon!
I am not good at using knives, but for me at this time, there is not much difference between a knife and a sword. As long as you have the intention, your fingers can become a magical weapon!
In the blink of an eye, the woodcutter in my hand drew a small arc in mid-air, and then returned to its original position!
"So fast!" The Maoshan disciples behind him opened their eyes wide and their faces were full of ecstasy.
Kong Yuan on the side also had a look of surprise on his calm face...
I flicked the woodcutter, and the rusty woodcutter immediately fell into pieces in my hand.
Then, the big tree behind me also fell down in an instant.
I looked back and saw that the cuts that had been made on the big tree were neat and consistent. They were very similar to the cuts Kong Yuan had made just now. They were almost made by the same person.
There was a creaking sound as the big tree fell, and a glimmer of light flashed in Kong Yuan's eyes.
"Sir, this junior has made a fool of himself. I'm afraid this woodcutter can no longer be used," I said to Kong Yuan with a hint of apology.
The woodcutter in my hand couldn't withstand the huge force, and it fell apart in my hand.
Although the wood-chopping knife was not valuable, after all, it belonged to someone else, so I was a little embarrassed.
But Kong Yuan didn't care about his woodcutter at all!
His eyes were locked on mine and he said, "Have you ever used a knife before?"
I shook my head.
I used to be a cremator, so I had never used a knife. If I had one, it would have been a kitchen knife for cutting vegetables.
"You have never used a sword, but you still have such a deep understanding of the meaning of the sword?"
Kong Yuan didn't believe it, and looked around me several times.
Then he grabbed my hand and looked at it a few times.
Soon, he was finally convinced and said: "Most people will have a layer of thick calluses on their hands after using the knife for a long time, but there is no thick callus on your hands. It seems that you really didn't lie to me."
Kong Yuan seemed particularly interested in the move I just showed.
He pulled me aside and said with a change of expression: "Are you interested in practicing swordsmanship with me?"
I shook my head and smiled bitterly, "To be honest, sir, Senior Chen Xiao has already given me his Purple Lightning, and I have become accustomed to using the sword."
"Huh, what's the point of using a sword? I'm so young. The sword is the first weapon. It can be opened and closed, and it can cut down the enemy like a tree..."
"Sir's sword is indeed capable of cutting down the enemy like a tree, but this junior's skill is only half a bucket of water."
"No, I saw the skill you showed just now. As long as you can sneak up and learn sword skills from me, your future will be limitless..."
Kong Yuan made it clear that he was a knife fanatic. When he saw a good knife, good knife skills, or even a good swordsman, he didn't want to let it go.
Now, just because I understood his sword intention, and the sword I used had some of his style, he began to persuade me to leave Maoshan and switch to his side, saying that he had not had an apprentice yet, and it was rare to see me acting like this.
Although he has a high talent for learning swordsmanship, this is the first time he has thought about taking on a disciple.
When I heard Kong Yuan's words, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. I thought that old man Chen Mie was like this back then, and after he took me to Maoshan and became the leader, I still wiped my own butt...
I didn't explicitly reject Kong Yuan's kindness. Zhuge Wenwu said that everything and everyone has a point, and Zhuge Wenwu's point is his obsession with knives!
I helped Kong Yuan take the finished door panel back and put this brand new door panel in place.
That night, Zhuge Wenwu made several dishes for us using the vegetables and fruits he grew in his back room. Together with the rice he grew, everyone enjoyed the meal happily.
After we had had enough wine and food, Kong Yuan took me to an open place again, threw me a wooden knife, and insisted on squaring with me, saying that it had been a long time since he had seen someone with such an understanding of knives, and he would let me do whatever he wanted.
I'll discuss it with him for a while...
Under the dark night, Kong Yuan grabbed the wooden sword and first practiced his sword skills in front of me to show me, and then I performed them again. During the long dark night, Kong Yuan and I were communicating and sparring, but it didn't matter.
It's boring, I'm just sitting around waiting for the dream girl who wants to have a wild battle with me.
The night passed slowly, and when it dawned the next day, Kong Yuan was satisfied and left the wooden sword behind and went back to the house to rest, saying that he would continue the competition later.
Exhausted, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. This Kong Yuan is definitely a knife-hungry maniac. He hasn't stopped talking about knife skills since last night...
