I am a living immortal.
Chapter 314 I can’t laugh anymore
"Who isn't?"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Tao looked at the old goat blankly.
"Who, what? What are you talking about?"
"Who isn't good at it? It's just swordsmanship, who can't do a few tricks? Besides, my sword is pretty good."
Chen Tao looked up and down at the old goat.
If it was just about strength, Chen Tao believed that the old goat was very powerful, even a peerless master, but the sword... he had never seen the old goat with a sword, so how could he have any swordsmanship.
"Don't judge with your limited knowledge."
"How does the saying go? If you have a sword in your heart, everything can be a sword." The old goat was not pretending to be profound.
And he really did know how to do it. He'd watched Su Mu practice swordsmanship. He could even say that from the moment the old man handed Su Mu the broken sword, from the basics to maturity, from the age of nine until now, he'd witnessed Su Mu's mastery of the swordsmanship from the ground up. Even though he hadn't tried it himself, he'd already memorized those unpredictable sword moves, finding it difficult to forget them.
Up to now, although I can’t reach the level of Su Mu.
But it was more than enough to bully a martial arts master known for his swift swordsmanship.
Chen Tao was silent for a while, but he finally believed it. Although he didn't understand swordsmanship, he knew that Old Goat was not a person who talked nonsense.
But it was still incredible: "You actually know swordsmanship, why haven't I seen you practice swordsmanship before?"
"Does this require practice? Can't you do it with your hands?"
"........."
Hearing this, Chen Tao became a little skeptical again. Although talent for swordplay was important, how could one become a swordsman without practicing?
"There's a kind of person called a genius, and geniuses are often different from ordinary people. Even if you work ten or a hundred times harder than the other person, you might only be able to distance yourself from them. Besides, although I haven't practiced, I will watch, I will observe, and I will remember it in my heart."
"Why am I telling you so much..."
"Just remember, the monsters I've encountered have done countless outrageous things, some of which will even subvert your imagination."
Chen Tao agreed with this statement.
Practicing sword skills and gaining enlightenment is like doing advanced mathematics. If you can do it, you can do it. If you can’t do it, you can scratch your head and rack your brains but still can’t do it.
"Just leave it to me when the time comes." The old goat comforted.
"Actually, there's no need to wait. When I arrived, they were already heading this way. While I was chatting with you, they might have already arrived..."
Just as Chen Tao finished speaking, a voice came from outside the courtyard: "Zhao Lei, the Rain Flower Sword, has come to pay a special visit."
The voice carried far away. It wasn't as rich as one might imagine, but rather a bit hoarse and spoken quickly. This might be due to the sword he practiced.
The Yuhua Sword emphasizes urgency and speed, so fast that it is like facing an attack like a violent storm, with no way to defend or dodge. It can interrupt the opponent's momentum in an instant, completely abandoning skills and defense, and focusing on achieving "speed" to the extreme.
This person often crushes his opponent with every move. Even if the opponents are evenly matched, it is difficult for them to withstand such an attack.
This is similar to the method Qiu Cheng used when he used the heavy spear. One is to suppress everything with force, and the other is to be fast.
But it seems that he is definitely not as powerful as Qiu Cheng, judging from his voice alone.
After all, Qiu Cheng's use of force to suppress Wan Dao was not just based on force.
The key to a heavy sword without an edge and great skill without effort still depends on one's own practice.
When this shout was finished.
The surroundings immediately fell into silence.
What Zhao Lei said was not a greeting, but a visit. He didn't even bother to pretend. He just stood at the door of the old goat and shouted, as if this was giving enough face.
The old goat ignored him and just stood there waiting.
"Are you sure you don't need to reply?" Chen Tao looked at the old goat who was still feeding the koi that was as fat as a ball. The fish ate whatever he was fed. It seemed that the fish was eating endlessly.
"No, it's rude."
"Uh, I guess it won't work. Also, could you please stop feeding it? I think this fish is going to die of starvation..."
"It can't die. It might have eaten it."
"Your focus is really..." Chen Tao was a little helpless, but he didn't say anything. He just stood there quietly watching the fat koi swimming hard in the water, trying its best to chase the fish food that was about to sink to the bottom.
That clumsy look made people laugh out loud.
There was no tension in the courtyard, but outside, there was already a sense of panic. Zhao Lei waited for a long moment, his brow furrowed and his expression darkened. The other party had undoubtedly heard his call, but there had been no response, which made him feel humiliated.
A person who doesn't know what he is really thinking of as a hermit?
He had come to visit, and not even a greeting, but he hadn't even received a response. He was keenly aware that many people, though not overtly, had poked their heads out to look in his direction, which only made Zhao Lei even more angry. Zhao Lei looked to be in his forties or fifties, not slender but not strong either. However, his hands looked very powerful.
His already sunken cheeks looked even more gloomy due to the anger, like a hungry and sick tiger. It was obvious at first glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Several middle-aged men around him whispered something in his ear.
Then one of them ran over and tried to knock on the door, but as soon as he raised his hand, he was kicked out.
The force created a gust of wind that swept past Zhao Lei. He rubbed against the ground for several minutes and rolled several times before finally stopping like a dead dog.
It all happened very quickly, in just a moment.
The old goat tucked his legs together and slowly walked out of the door. "Who's barking?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Tao, who was following behind him, burst out laughing, completely oblivious to the tense atmosphere before them. If he didn't laugh, the situation wouldn't ease much, so why hold it in? A smile makes you look ten years younger.
"Is this how you treat guests?" Zhao Lei stared at the old goat's young face and said with a contemptuous and superior attitude of an elder.
"Serve the guests? Who are the guests? You? You're such a shill for yourself! Who do you think you are? Serving the guests? I have a bucket of slop, would you like to take it?"
The old goat won't give the other party any face.
"you!"
"What are you talking about? You want to bark like a dog? Get out of here. Why are you acting so high and mighty in front of me? You have no manners at all. It seems that this is how Dayu is. You can even be considered a master. It's really laughable. I'm afraid I'll get dirty if I do it. Disgusting thing."
Chen Tao was originally grinning behind the old goat, but as he listened, he couldn't laugh anymore...
