When he was pulling out the arrow last night, he heard her reminding him to be prepared, but he didn't feel any pain at all. After the sword was pulled out, he didn't even lose too much blood.

When he woke up in the morning and found that the wounds on his body had healed at an amazing speed and had already formed scabs, he became even more certain that this girl was extraordinary.

But he was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he didn't dare to ask or investigate. He just pretended nothing had happened and wanted to see what other magical things she had.

Sure enough, he discovered something else. If his father, who loved swords like his life, saw this sword, he would definitely spend all his money to get it.

"Alas... If you don't agree, there's nothing I can do. You have to know that I have no more medicine after I use them up. I can't find more, so the price is very expensive. Let me calculate. I have used a lot of medicine on you, almost two-thirds of all my medicine! If this medicine is converted into silver, it is impossible to be less than a thousand taels! Either you take the money, or you teach me swordsmanship! Now!"

Su Qiuyi suddenly realized that he had been fooled by this man, but he was still eager to negotiate terms with him and he quit.

She should take the initiative, how could she let him lead her by the nose?

After saying this, he looked over proudly and stretched out his hand, ready to take the money.

The meaning is obvious: either teach her swordsmanship or give her money for medicine.

Chu Mingxiao listened to the little black girl asking for a high price of one thousand taels for the medicine but he didn't think she was asking for an exorbitant price at all.

He felt that one thousand taels was too little for such a good medicine.

Besides, he had saved his life. Could one thousand taels buy his life? Obviously, it was too little.

Su Qiuyi looked at the man opposite her who didn't say anything when she stretched out her hand, and hesitated, wondering if her price was too high.

But before she could find a way to lower the price, Chu Mingxiao finally spoke.

"Okay! Then let's do as Miss Su says! But Miss Su, please don't complain about being tired!"

"Deal!" Su Qiuyi spoke quickly, fearing that the other party would go back on his word.

Chu Mingxiao pursed his lips and looked up with a smile.

Looking at it this way, although the little black girl is a little dark, her facial features are quite...

"It's a deal! Starting tomorrow, you will be my master!" Su Qiuyi didn't care what Chu Mingxiao's expression was now, and he wanted to confirm the master-disciple relationship first.

Chu Mingxiao nodded slightly, "Yeah!"

Gave Su Qiuyi an accurate answer.

Su Qiuyi immediately took out today's antidote. Otherwise, he would have given it to him. If he took it at noon, it would be just the right time. He had taken it at midnight last night, which was twelve hours later.

Chu Mingxiao was still a little surprised when he looked at the crystal clear and flawless white pill in his hand in the sunlight.

It didn't look like medicine, but more like pearls, but the toxins in his body were slowly being cleared, and he couldn't deny that it was indeed an antidote.

"This antidote... can it cure any poison?" Chu Mingxiao swallowed the pill and said something inaudibly, as if he was asking Su Qiuyi, but also as if he was only talking to himself.

Su Qiuyi heard it and shook his head, "Not necessarily!"

Chu Mingxiao looked up in surprise, but saw that the little black girl had already entered the cave and was no longer paying attention to him.

The feeling of emptiness in his hands made him realize that he had just been staring at a pill in a daze, and he didn't even notice that the girl took the sword from his hand.

……

The next morning, just after dawn, Su Laosan's voice was heard.

"Yiyi, it's time to get up!" Su Laosan shouted across the cubicle.

The real reason was that his daughter had told him before going to bed that as long as Chu Mingxiao called her, she should ask her father to wake her up.

Su Qiuyi was still dreaming when he was awakened by his father. He got up, feeling the slight chill in the early morning in the mountains, and went out with his sword in hand.

Chu Mingxiao was waiting at the entrance of the cave. When he saw someone coming out, he raised his chin slightly and said, "Go run five kilometers first!"

Su Qiuyi was shocked. She wanted to learn swordsmanship, but why did she start by running five kilometers?

She stood still, and Chu Mingxiao was not in a hurry and spoke slowly.

"What do you want to learn swordsmanship for?"

Su Qiuyi quickly stood up and answered confidently, "Protect yourself and your family!"

"So, without strength, the sword in your hand is just a show of strength! If you don't train your own strength, everything you have is a waste!"

Chu Mingxiao suddenly put away his lazy attitude and became serious.

The serious look made his temperament even more solemn, and Su Qiuyi was inexplicably affected by it.

The whole person became serious and solemn.

She understood that Chu Mingxiao wanted her to build up her physical strength. If her body could not keep up with the high-intensity combat, she would only be chopped by others even with a sword.

"Okay, I'll run! Take it!"

She threw the sword at Chu Mingxiao and ran towards the woods.

Su Laosan had been listening to the two people talking in the cave. He knew that his daughter wanted to learn swordsmanship and become stronger, and he had no objection at all.

Firstly, my daughter has had a fortuitous encounter, and if she can become stronger, she can protect herself.

Secondly, the sword in his daughter's hand appeared suddenly, and he knew it must have been given by that person. Perhaps, learning swordsmanship was also that person's request.

So he could only support her, but he didn't object to his daughter learning some skills. Once his daughter got married, her destiny could not be in her own hands. If she had the ability to protect herself, that was what he wanted to see most.

There is just one thing, my daughter ran into the woods again, this is not okay...

"Yiyi, don't run into the woods..." Su Laosan didn't care about anything else and quickly ran out of the cave and shouted.

Su Qiuyi paused in his running, thinking about what happened in the woods. Maybe those bandits would come back to check whether Chu Mingxiao was dead or not.

It is indeed not safe for her to go in now.

She turned and ran to the west. Today, she would run around the area where everyone was stationed. The conditions were limited, so she didn't want to take any risks.

This was a good thing. As soon as everyone got up, they saw Su Qiuyi running alone.

After asking, they learned that she was learning swordsmanship from her cousin. Those men and young boys were eager to try.

Qin Kui even followed Su Qiuyi.

"Yiyi girl, how far are you going to run like this? Uncle Kui will run with you!"

He looks full of energy and energetic early in the morning.

In comparison, Su Qiuyi was already out of breath and couldn't run anymore after running two laps.

My legs and feet feel a little weak.

As Qin Kui ran away, his two younger brothers, who always obeyed their elder brother's orders, followed him.

In the Qin family, only Qin Kui is married, while his two younger brothers are still not married. One is eighteen and the other is seventeen, which are considered adult men in that era.

If they hadn't been fleeing, the two would have been discussing marriage.

Su Qiuyi looked at the three men running after him, and suddenly felt that he could run...

After running another lap, I saw more people and more people caught up with the team.

In addition to the Qin Kui brothers, there was also Su Yunsheng and several men of similar age in the village.

They consciously formed a small team behind Su Qiuyi. After a quick count, there were actually more than ten people.

Su Qiuyi's team was getting bigger and bigger, and Chu Mingxiao, who was sitting at the entrance of the cave stroking his sword leisurely, was a little shocked.
