Chapter 8, Year
Chapter 8, Ten Years
Ten years is not a long time for angels with long lifespans, but Binghua's life seems extremely monotonous to her parents.
In their opinion, Binghua spent the whole day hiding in the grove behind the manor practicing swordplay. For this reason, Binghua's mother complained to Binghua's father, Yougeni, about why he taught her swordplay.
Now Binghua no longer looks as delicate and pitiful as a female angel. Rather than a girl, she looks more like a heroic boy.
Not only was he exposed to cold metal all day, but even his clothes had changed to short-sleeved T-shirts and black trousers.
Her wrists were wrapped in layers of white bandages, and her long hair was casually tied into a ponytail behind her head. This might be the only thing that made Binghua look like a girl.
Binghua is now 24 years old. She has finally grown out of the petite range and into a graceful young lady.
On an open lawn in the lush woods, a girl wearing a white shirt, black trousers and a white bandage on her forearm was waving a cross sword in her hand.
This is exactly the Binghua of today. She is no longer as young and tender as she was ten years ago. Now she has a beautiful oriental face mixed with a hint of heroic spirit. The eyes under her delicate eyebrows give people a sharp feeling, perhaps due to years of sword practice.
These characteristics taken individually would only make people feel amazing, but when they are combined together, they become Binghua, a beautiful girl with a heroic temperament.
Binghua wielded the long cross sword in one hand. Every move he made was the most basic swordsmanship moves such as stabbing, chopping, splitting, sweeping, swinging and lifting.
Although the moves are simple, when used by Binghua they give people a feeling of being honed through thousands of trials and tribulations.
After Binghua mastered the basic sword techniques of stabbing, chopping and splitting, Yougni taught her other techniques, such as sweeping, swinging and lifting.
Sweeping is a method of using the sword to push away or sweep away the enemy's weapon, which requires eyesight.
If you draw your sword too late, you will not have a chance to draw your sword because you have already been pierced through by your opponent's sword.
Drawing the sword too early will create a flaw for the opponent, and even if he wouldn't be stabbed before, he might end up being stabbed.
Swinging, without the big opening or the big swing, is a method of swinging the sword that uses the flexibility of the wrist to quickly chop the weak point of the enemy's block in order to break the opponent's block.
"Teasing" is a move that takes advantage of any opportunity. These are the original words of Yugni. It is to tease the opponent's weapon from bottom to top. If you follow up with a straight stab, you might get an unexpected reward.
These are some basic moves, and then Yugni taught some other moves.
For example, the sword-wielding methods such as intercepting, collapsing, pressing, and stirring are just telling Binghua how to practice, and the rest depends entirely on Binghua's own comprehension.
In Yugeni's words, his swordsmanship is only suitable for him, which he learned on the battlefield and is not suitable for Binghua to practice.
Therefore, Yugni only taught Binghua the training method, and everything else had to be created by Binghua himself.
Just like the stabbing move, there are many ways to stab, such as straight stabbing, oblique stabbing, sprinting, downward stabbing, upward stabbing and so on.
What Yougni first asked Binghua to practice was not various stabbing and sword techniques, but to create a target and have Binghua keep stabbing with the sword until she was 100% sure.
Because in a fight, no matter how many tricks you use, it's useless if you can't hit the person.
Now, every time Binghua swings his sword, he can stab or chop where he wants, without any mistake.
At the same time, these basic sword moves were integrated into Binghua's body memory. This was discovered by Binghua herself when Yugeni suddenly had a whim and was dueling with Binghua.
When her father's sword pierced through the air, before Binghua could react, the sword in her hand had automatically been held horizontally in front of her body, blocking the tip of the sword in an emergency.
Binghua practiced all the basic sword moves several times before putting down the sword. This was something she did every day.
Because swordsmanship is something that relies heavily on physical instinct. If you don't practice for a long time, the swordsmanship imprinted in your body will gradually become unfamiliar.
At the same time, practicing swordsmanship every day can make Binghua more familiar with the basic swordsmanship moves, making her sword-wielding more flexible and faster.
For example, if there are two people with the same physical fitness, one practices sword swinging frequently and the other rarely practices, then their sword swinging speed and continuity will be very different.
"Sister He Xi, I have thoroughly studied the light and shadow refraction algorithm you transmitted. Do you have any other knowledge? I have recently finished reading all the books at home on micro-wormhole transportation technology, dark energy conversion overview, etc."
Bing Huayi picked up a piece of white cloth to wipe the cross sword in his hand without a trace of stain, while contacting He Xi who was far away in the City of Angels through secret communication.
He Xi is the silver-haired angel sister that Binghua met in the City of Angels ten years ago. During these ten years, Binghua and she got along very well.
In addition, Binghua knew very well that sweet-talkers get candies, so she started calling her "sister" a long time ago.
He Xi, who was at the Melo Academic Branch far away in the City of Angels, was sitting in a pavilion with two other female angels beside her.
"You have mastered the subject so quickly. It has only been three months. I really underestimated you. Let me think about what knowledge to pass on to you first."
He Xi lowered her raised white legs and tapped her temples with her fingers, obviously in distress.
Binghua had already learned the simple ones, but she didn't quite understand the more profound ones, which made He Xi a little confused. Could it be that after just a few years of hard work, the knowledge in her elder sister's head would be emptied out?
"Oh, Binghua, I remembered a basic energy conversion algorithm that I researched a long time ago. It seems to be an algorithm for converting electrical energy. I'll send it to you through dark communication right now!"
He Xi called up the genetic computer of his dark dimension, then packed up all the research knowledge and theories on power conversion algorithms in the database and threw them all to Binghua who was far away on the other side.
"Binghua! My sister has something to do for now. I'll contact you when I have time."
After He Xi packaged the knowledge and transmitted it, he quickly spoke and pretended to be in a hurry and hung up the secret communication.
A blonde female angel wearing a beige long skirt with some exquisite metal floral decorations on it spoke with a smile.
"Hey, He Xi, who are you whispering to? Even Liang Bing and I are not allowed to listen."
The female angel, whose long golden curly hair fell on both sides of her cheeks, revealing only a part of her beautiful face in the middle, leaned back on the white seat behind her and asked with a smile.
"Sister, do you think He Xi is talking to that sissy who has been pursuing her?"
A brown-haired female angel named Liang Bing spoke jokingly.
"How is it possible? How could I contact him? I didn't even tell him my secret communication number!"
He Xi immediately retorted, and then realized that Liang Bing was trying to trick him.
Hearing He Xi's answer, Liang Bing laughed. "Fortunately you were not moved by him. I felt sick when I saw his sissy look."
