Chapter 12 The Forest, the Woodcutter, and the Lone Sword

"You are wielding your sword everywhere you go, what's the purpose?" The woodcutter grinned, and his white teeth were exposed in the middle of his thick beard, just like his fair skin, which made Li Tianzhao feel strange every time.

Why is a woodcutter who cuts trees every day so white?

"I'm practicing martial arts!" Li Tianzhao answered with confidence.

"Then you never thought that I was practicing martial arts too?" The woodcutter looked at his eyes with a strong smile.

"...It makes sense. Who said that you can't cut down trees to practice?" Li Tianzhao couldn't help laughing.

It was strange that he practiced his own exercises. His footwork made him in a state of rotation and movement, because he thought that with this kind of rotation, he could achieve the "fastest curve" miraculous effect of body movements. In this way, seeing his body movements are always very large, but in fact, in conjunction with the movements of the sword, it is always faster than pursuing the minimum distance and movements.

If he practices so well with his body skills and sword skills, he believes that his combat power will be improved to a new level.

But, it's not that easy.

There is more than one curve faster than a straight line, but how can you always reach or infinitely close to the fastest curve?

This is difficult, and you have to practice various moves over and over again.

But what is even more difficult is that the external environment, such as terrain, obstacles, and even the size, strength, and direction of the wind will cause the fastest curve to change in each movement.

Even if you stand in the same place and wave the same movement, wind direction, and wind force, it will change the fastest curve path.

He must practice his body skills and sword moves over and over again, and also focus on mastering the changing rules of the fastest curve under the influence of various environments and the climate.

In fact, this is a bit too much pursuit of perfection, because Li Tianzhao only needs to do it faster than a normal straight line.

But he was not satisfied with this because he had an imaginary enemy in his heart.

If one day, when he meets the enemy who defeated his mother, and if that person also knows the mystery that the curve can be faster, then how can he win?

Only by making every change in his body movement and every sword reach the closest to perfection can he be invincible.

So he has been practicing, and he has practiced both body skills and sword moves while walking. In the endless repeated refinement process, he has pursued the most perfect curves.

The woodcutter said he was always practicing swords, and it was the same.

Li Tianzhao watched the woodcutter grab the axe and walk towards another tree, lifted it up and cut it down.

After normal times, he won't bother, but he has been really lonely recently.

When I walk by, I tease the children and chat with the women for a while, and there are always people talking.

Now there is no one else, he can only say to the air.

In Baishan Town, besides him, there is only a living person like the woodcutter.

"Where do you live? The people in the village know you, but no one knows where you live."

"Among the mountains, deep clouds." The woodcutter laughed, but it still didn't explain it clearly.

"Everyone has moved away, and there are only two living people in Baishan Town. No matter how far you live, I will have the leisure to chat and talk to you. It is even more boring to have a meal together." Li Tianzhao walked casually, waved his sword, and spoke in his mouth, but did not delay practicing.

The woodcutter cut down the tree and replied, "Life is originally lonely, and it will be better to adapt early. For those who are used to loneliness, the most terrible thing is that they suddenly have a companion, and this companion is destined to leave one day in the future. Gaining and losing again is much more painful than never getting. I think it's good now. I occasionally meet and chat for a while, and there is no need to worry about not seeing it."

"I heard from them that you have been in the forests of the mountains for many years. What kind of pain have you experienced to do this?" Li Tianzhao said with emotion: "After my parents died in battle, I have been practicing hard. I cannot get close to the girls I like, I cannot participate in the fun of my friends, and I did not participate in the activities that everyone gathers together. I always remember that I cannot relax. I have to practice hard so that I can have the ability to step into the Palace of King Wu to resurrect them faster in the future."

The woodcutter listened, and was not surprised. It was not surprising that Li Tianzhao, who suddenly fell in loneliness, would talk about his heart abnormally.

"At that time, I felt lonely, but I thought I was not afraid of loneliness. When I came here, I adjusted very quickly. Until everyone left, I realized that it was not true loneliness at all. Every day when I was having dinner, I saw everyone in the village, listened to them, and talked to them. Recently, I couldn't even see people and could not hear people's voices. This was really lonely, and the taste was so unbearable!" Li Tianzhao didn't like this sense of out-of-control fragility, but had to admit that he couldn't face this loneliness calmly immediately.

"After a long time, I will always get used to it." The woodcutter's tone seemed to be the most concise summary of those who have experienced it.

"I think so. Before that, I was idle anyway, and maybe I would wander to your place where I live one day. If there is any disturbance, please forgive me."

The woodcutter smiled and said, "I have heard of Duoduo, but it's fresh if you want to give me a little."

"Please give me more for no reason. I always feel that it is too unreasonable; if you are a little tolerant, you won't feel too uncomfortable. Once you can't stand the disturbance, I can adjust and restrain myself if I say it." Li Tianzhao has long been accustomed to practicing and not being disrupted by others' plans, nor does he like to disturb the woodcutter's living habits.

"Seeing that you are so reasonable and knowing to think about it for me, I will reluctantly make it a little bit. Please forgive you." The woodcutter laughed and seemed quite happy.

Li Tianzhao watched another tree fall down. When he saw the woodcutter cutting off the branches and leaves, he focused his attention. After he practiced in one place for a long time, his footwork became a mechanical repetition, so he took the opportunity to walk away.

For a moment, he returned with his sword waving, but found that the woodcutter had left.

The two trees were gone.

He looked around and there was no trace of capture.

‘The villagers all said that this woodcutter is very capable, and it seems to be true. With two trees, how could he not touch other branches, leaves, bushes and other traces?’ Li Tianzhao observed and looked at it for a long time, but there was really no clue to follow.

However, it was not the first time that the woodcutter came and walked suddenly.

Li Tianzhao waved his sword and continued to practice his skills, swaying around in the mountains and forests.

Every time someone who transports supplies in the city comes, Li Tianzhao will ask if there is a letter and why the merit documents have not arrived yet.

The man said that the person who gave the merit documents was sick on the road and returned, and had to wait for the place where he was originally there to re-arrange the person before sending him. In terms of process, it might be another half year.

Li Tianzhao had already been so angry that he had no temper. He deliberately targeted him these actions. How amazing.

He has objections to the result of the reward of merits and to sue, he must base it on the specific content of the document.

But he couldn't even see the merits and documents, so what basis was he used as a basis?

He couldn't just sue, he was the only one who made a contribution, so why did he reward so many people?

His original solo skills cannot reach the level of a hundred battle generals!

Obviously, those who targeted him were wary of his troubles and could not send his merits and documents, so he could not leave his job without permission.

This matter has been dragged on for so long.

When will he leave here and have the chance to sue, but when will he leave?

As the days pass by, Li Tianzhao ponders his body skills and sword moves every day, which is equivalent to relying on the fastest curve as the core and exploring and creating by himself.

There are often new gains, and I can't stop thinking about things in my mind.

The power of the Battle Seal replenishes physical energy, and makes him more efficient in practicing than before. He has to be more at ease before, and he will take a look when he is tired.

Now he often practices until the early morning, and he is completely tired because he tries a subtle trick. He does not feel his head light and falls asleep until the result is finally verified.

Many times, he really slept in the tree.

The woodcutter appeared under the tree, looked up at Li Tianzhao who was sleeping and holding a sword, shook his head, went straight away, and selected trees suitable for cutting.

The woodcutter left behind Baishan Town met one after another, but the worst was the first one, and then Li Tianzhao, because they were all alone in guarding the border.

The woodcutter did not expect that Li Tianzhao could practice diligently every day and could last for so long.

In this case, no one appreciates or praises the daily practice, and there is no practical verification of whether to become stronger or not. There is no merit or a sense of accomplishment.

There is nothing, but Li Tianzhao can still practice overdrawing energy every day.

The woodcutter knew that he was going to step into the Palace of King Wu in the future to resurrect his parents. Zhao said that he was hating, but Li Tianzhao did not have the look of hating the world.

On that day, Li Tianzhao slept on the tree again. When she woke up, she looked for the stream nearby to wash it, but saw a woodcutter roasting pheasants beside the stream.

More than one more.

The woodcutter pointed to a pheasant and said, "I'm going to sit next to the fire next time, and said, "I'll be hunting some wild game for you next time, I just don't know when I will meet you, and I'll make an appointment?"

"When are you ready, I will come after smelling the incense." Li Tianzhao really didn't believe the woodcutter's words.

"This is too irritating. How far can your nose smell?"

"Far beyond your estimate." The woodcutter was not joking. Li Tianzhao couldn't help but be skeptical, and asked seriously: "Really?"

"No kidding. I will definitely smell it whenever you bake it."

"I really need to have a long experience!" Li Tianzhao really didn't believe it, but she felt too anxious. Perhaps the woodcutter would calculate his idea, so it wouldn't be sniffing the fragrance from his nose.

So Li Tianzhao endured the impatient mood and decided to draw lots eleven days later.

He prepared the things, picked a place, set up a fire and started to roast it.

The place is a temporary intention, and time is a decision to draw lots. Is there any unique ability to smell the aroma of barbecue through the mountains?

The meat is gradually ripe.

Li Tianzhao looked around, not only not believing it, but also hoped that she could really return to her knowledge.

However, the mutton was cooked and the aroma was everywhere, and it would be baked if it was roasted.

Looking around, where are the woodcutters?

Li Tianzhao shook her head, took a piece of meat, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I actually used jokes as a serious matter! After preparing so much meat, I can only let go of my belly and support it!"

As soon as Li Tianzhao put the lamb legs to his mouth, he suddenly realized something was wrong behind him. He couldn't help but brows sank, jumped forward quickly, turned around, pressed the sword, and turned around.

A series of actions were completed in one go!

Behind him is a woodcutter.

He really came, and it was abrupt, and there was no movement that should have happened in the process.

Li Tianzhao bit the leg of lamb in her mouth, held the sword in her hand, pointed at the woodcutter, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
