One of the few attempts in Aying's life to resolve conflicts through communication and conversation was shattered.She finally gave up the fantasy, recognized the facts, and found that violent struggle was more effective.

It happened that there was a knock on the door outside the house, and someone wanted to come in.Yuan Zimo had already put on the magic weapon on the pinna again, and waved his hand when he heard the sound, and unlocked the door.

The door was pushed open.A Ying suddenly charged up and exploded, and rushed to the door of the room in an instant.Like a shadowy bat, it turned sideways and was about to slide past the passerby.

The person who opened the door reacted quickly, stretching out his arms subconsciously, turning his hands to block and twist, as if the sound of gold and stone colliding came from the place where the two torsos collided.Aying's puppet's right arm, which hadn't fully adapted to it yet, froze slightly at this moment, and the arm was firmly clamped, unable to move.

Aying can bear this grievance, she has mastered grappling since elementary school.

As soon as he pulled it, an extremely fierce force burst out from his thin body, almost throwing the whole person over his shoulder.There was a trace of surprise on the face of the visitor, and he was forced to relax his strength.A Ying was free, and suddenly broke free from the restraints.

She got rid of the shackles and didn't love to fight. She immediately shrunk her body and turned over to the eaves above.Seeing that the black shadow lurking under the eaves could escape smoothly, the feeling of being attracted by a magnet came again, fishing her out of the shadow.

Yuan Zimo stood calmly in the room, his eyes were clear and unkind.He didn't think there was anything wrong with one-on-one battles, he hid aside and used his control skills secretly as a hindrance.

Ah Ying knew that she would definitely not be able to escape from the shadow.A sudden gust of wind came from behind, and the man clung to her again, each attack going straight to her right side.Under the offensive like a torrential rain, the puppet iron arm became a burden again.Just a slight freeze and stiffness can be found immediately.After two or three rounds, Ah Ying was imprisoned again.

This time, Ah Ying finally saw the face of the visitor clearly.She is an honest and kind-hearted swordsman who was slightly surprised when she found out that A Ying was a girl.Facing Aying's furious eyes, he actually showed a shy smile——

Then the strength on the arm tightened a little more.

Ah Ying, who was just thinking about taking the opportunity to escape: "..."

Where did Jianzong's insanity come from? It's really bad luck at noon.

Yuan Zimo also came over, and simply wrote a few words with magic.Jianxiu looked over curiously: "So, she is that foreign disciple who knows the fate of Taiyi?"

A Ying tilted his head coldly.She didn't, she wasn't, don't talk nonsense.

She never admitted that she was from Taiyi.

A Ying's dark skin and blue eyes clearly showed her foreign identity, but this sword repairer, like Yuan Zimo, did not show any curiosity and amazement towards foreigners, as if she had been used to it for a long time .

The sword cultivator showed a pure and simple smile, and said in a broad and friendly tone: "I am Shi Chen, a disciple of Kunwu Sword Sect, and I am an old acquaintance with your master. I just came back two days ago, and I heard that Zimo accepted a Use the puppet to continue to connect the Taiyi disciple with the broken arm. So come here today to help him tidy up the house, and help him adjust his arm by the way."

A Ying looked indifferently at this sword repairer who was pretending to be an honest person, but who was imprisoning her arm but did not spare any effort, and said sarcastically, "You Jianzong are just so leisurely, don't you have anything else to do?"

Shi Chen didn't care about the thorns in her words, and explained kindly: "I'm just an ordinary disciple of Jianzong, and I'm only responsible for some miscellaneous things. I just finished the task two days ago, and I'm really fine right now."

A Ying's eyes darkened slightly.

An ordinary disciple of Jianzong?

When she was in the prince's sect's martial arts test before, in the daytime when there were few shadows, she was able to almost draw with Fu Xiao who had already arrived in Yuanying.The Jianxiu and Lu Bai in front of him are good friends, so they must not have escaped the curse of Suihe's 20-year Wuyuanying.A mere sword cultivator with the most golden core cultivation could make her so embarrassed.

Aying knew why.

Because of her right hand.

The puppet forbidden technique allowed the iron arm to move, but after all, it still couldn't return to the nimbleness and agility of the hands of the top assassins before.There is no inconvenience in daily life, just like a normal arm.But when it came time to quickly disassemble and counterattack as before, the subtle abnormality would immediately put her at a disadvantage.

Shi Chen noticed Aying's loneliness for a moment, thought for a while, and let go of the restraint on her.

Ah Ying couldn't believe it, she didn't understand how she let her go so easily.But he saw the sword cultivator on the opposite side open the sleeves of his hands calmly.

Under the sword robe, there are two arms made of black black iron.

A Ying was taken aback.

In the brief confrontation between the two before, except for the abnormal noise of torso colliding, Aying did not notice at all that this smooth-moving swordsman actually used prosthetic limbs.

Before it was over, Shi Chen drew out the long sword carried behind his back, and tapped his left leg lightly.Where the scabbard collided, there was a clanging sound like the impact of gold and stone.

His legs are also fake.

He used to be a sword cultivator with broken arms and legs.

Shi Chen didn't change his face: "Actually, there are other places, but it's not convenient to show them."

A Ying temporarily gave up the idea of ​​escaping.She didn't like to talk originally, and the shadow guard's training also required her to keep silent.But the iron arm on Jianxiu's body now made it difficult for her to contain her inner curiosity: "Is this also... a puppet?"

Shi Chen nodded: "In Jianzong, there are more than a dozen other people like me. Unfortunately, they are all in Kunwu territory right now. I will introduce them to you when they come back."

more than ten?

A Ying hesitated: "But... puppet life is not a forbidden technique for weapon repairers? And only highly talented weapon repairers can learn it."

Shi Chen nodded: "So Qixiu [Suihe 20 Years Without Nascent Soul]."

A Ying was stunned for a moment.

Twenty years ago, almost all talented weapon cultivators imposed puppet life on sword cultivators with severed limbs at the cost of not being able to advance in the future.

Therefore, in the 20th year of Suihe, there is no more Nascent Soul in Qixiu.

She suddenly thought of something, and turned her head to glance at Yuan Zimo behind her.

Shi Chen explained: "Oh, he has never used puppet. He is too weak to use the forbidden technique. He did it for some other reasons."

The dumb and deaf puppeteer looked at Shi Chen expressionlessly.

Compared with the rough-skinned and thick-skinned swordsman, of course anyone's health is poor.

Yuan Zimo clapped his hands and outlined the next arrangement.In the next month, Shi Chen will continue to practice and try to simulate all the situations he will encounter as comprehensively as possible, so that A Ying can adapt to the characteristics of the iron hand as soon as possible.

Yuan Zimo will constantly adjust and optimize the details of A Ying's arm through the observation of A Ying's movement habits during the day and night, and the feedback after the two people practiced.Until this prosthetic hand truly integrated with Yuan Yuan's body.

A Ying was visibly moved.Just at this time, the servant boy came to deliver the letter.In the letter, Song Jun said that she already knew that Aying's arm conditioning took much longer than expected.

She told Ah Ying not to worry about time, and she just wanted to follow the sword repair here to improve her cultivation.She will wait for her return at the previously arranged accommodation.

Hearing the words, Ah Ying finally felt at ease, and expressed his thanks a little awkwardly.Shi Chen's good temper was in a mess, and he didn't take the previous conflict between the two of them seriously.He looked up and felt that the weather was good today, so he could find a place to practice with A Ying right away.

Yuan Zimo forbade two extremely destructive people to fight near his work room, and let Shi Chen and A Ying leave first.After inquiring, Shi Chen found out that A Ying was using a pair of knives, and followed up with his own house, and found two weapons of similar shape in Yuanzi's ink room.

Shi Chen took Aying to a disused martial arts arena on Shuangming Peak, barely meeting anyone along the way.I happened to meet a few young sword cultivators who seemed to be about the same age as A Ying, and I was obviously not familiar with Shi Chen.After realizing his seniority, he saluted simply out of etiquette.

A Ying couldn't help looking at Shi Chen who was beside him who didn't care.It seems that, as he himself said, he is just one of the hundreds of sword cultivators in the Kunwu Sword Sect, with ordinary talents and ordinary qualifications, who can only do some trivial chores, the most mediocre group of people.

When the two arrived at the empty martial arts arena, Shi Chen handed A Ying the pair of sabers he had picked up from Yuan Zimo.

Aying took the weapon with a little excitement, thinking that he could start fighting.This time finally no weapon cultivator secretly stopped her from sneaking into the shadows, she must have avenged her shame.

As a result, Shi Chen in front of him just glanced strangely at A Ying who was eager to try, and didn't intend to draw his sword at all: "First, do the most basic set of exercises you have learned."

A Ying: "..."

You gave me all the knives, so you let me do this?

The most basic set...how basic?Do you want to start with Zama step?

But as a top assassin who can fight against Fu Xiao, she can actually understand Shi Chen's intentions.The arm made by the puppet actually has the greatest impact on the basic movements.Through the most basic moves, the deformation and offset of movements can be seen most clearly and intuitively.

As a shadow guard, she has excellent obedience to orders.No complaints, just started practicing from the simplest moves like a child who has just started.

"stop."

Just after practicing three movements, Shi Chen stopped him: "You care too much about your right arm."

A Ying remained silent.I am afraid that only those who have also received the gift from the puppet can see the subtle difference in her movements just now.Indeed, although he ignored it as much as possible rationally, he instinctively reduced the strength of his right arm swing.

"You need to treat the puppet arm as your original blood-connected body. Do it again."

A Ying withdrew the knife and honestly started from the beginning.

This continued until dark, when Shi Chen took Aying back to Yuanzi's ink room.Yuan Zimo's servant boy has already packed up a separate bed for A Ying.In order to observe the movements at night, she will share a room with Yuan Zimo.

"Don't worry." The puppeteer with a beautiful and delicate face wrote in the air expressionlessly: "I look at your body, just like looking at a pair of sword puppets."

A Ying: "..."

She doesn't really have a problem with being in the same room.When she was in the army with Song Jun, sometimes the conditions were harsh, and she would sleep in a military tent with other soldiers.The only problem is that when she usually falls asleep, she is used to sneaking into the shadows, living on beams, cabinet tops and other high places where she can get a good view.But right now, she obviously had to sleep in bed.

A Ying sat on the soft bed with some mixed feelings.For ordinary people, it is a rare experience for her.

Yuan Zimo was slowly taking off his outer clothes.A Ying noticed that the steel chain in his hand was like a puppet string, extending all the way to his shoulders.It wraps the entire back, forming an extremely mysterious and complex system, like the hard shell on the soft and feeble body of a beetle.

Shi Chen's words may not be wrong.Due to congenital deficiencies, the puppet master is not only deaf and dumb, but also has weak limbs and weak fingertips.Only by relying on this sophisticated system can the movement of the body be supported.

And he happened to be an instrument repairer.An instrument that requires extremely high precision of finger movements.At that time in Dingcheng, Lu Ran once taught her how to install the parts of the sword puppet's arm.It took her a long time to put the simplest part in the right place.

A Ying is a little hard to imagine why a person like Yuan Zimo must embark on the road of refining weapons, and how he has become the chief weapon repairer of Zhan Jinzong step by step with great difficulty.

Yuan Zimo took off his coat stiffly and inadvertently exposed a piece of skin on his chest.Because I haven't seen the sun for a long time, my skin is as white as snow.Aying was born in a foreign country in the South China Sea, where most of the citizens have darker skin.Coming to the Central Plains later, it is rare to see such a cold and pale complexion as Yuan Zimo.

A bright red cinnabar is lit on the white jade-like chest.Against the backdrop of the fire, it looked like a bright scarlet gem that had condensed endless blood and tears.

A Ying looked away unnaturally.Although Yuan Zimo was a man, with such a delicate and cold face, she always felt that staring at his chest was a kind of blasphemy.

Just when she was about to close her eyes, Yuan Zimo changed her clothes, and instead walked to her side, looking at her seriously with delicate eyebrows and eyes like a puppet.

Ah Ying suddenly felt an inexplicable guilty conscience.Among the people she knew, only Zhou Qingluan's appearance was comparable to Yuan Zimo's.What's even more valuable is that Yuan Zimo can't speak.

Yuan Zimo didn't notice Aying's strangeness, moved his fingertips slightly, and wrote a paragraph out of thin air:

"Would you be frightened if someone watched you close in the middle of the night?"

A Ying opened her blue eyes, and she didn't know why she asked such a question.She is a knife trained by the Supervision Department, so she must not be able to sleep too deeply like ordinary people.It's not enough to be frightened, but someone who is close will definitely notice it.

On Yuan Zimo's beautiful face, his expression was calm and calm, and his eyes were clear and sincere: "If you wake up in the middle of the night and subconsciously want to fight back, I hope you can strike softly."

A Ying: "... what?"

Yuan Zimo said sincerely: "You look like it hurts to beat someone. Don't hit me, I'm weak."

Ah Ying didn't know what expression to make, so she turned her face and said dryly: "...I will try my best."
