Ten thousand swings of the knife, no more, no less.
Naturally, it reminded Lin Nie of Nitro's 10,000 punches.
Maybe this could be a coincidence.
But Moyu's concentration when wielding the sword, and the calm aura that he gradually developed inadvertently, are no longer just coincidences.
Not to mention--
Just now, Lin Nie noticed that the hand gestures Moyou made quietly when he was alert were a bit like the starting gestures of Guanyin.
Or.
Lin Nie saw the shadow of Baishi Guanyin in that gesture.
"name?"
Lin Nie slowly stopped his divergent thoughts and asked Moyu's name.
Mo Wei was startled, but considering the relationship between Lin Nie and Nitro, he answered simply.
"Moyo Isaac."
"..."
Lin Nie's eyes moved slightly.
Isaac...
This last name is the same as Nitro's first name.
It seems to be related to Shingen Ryu's first generation disciple.
After asking Moyou's name, Lin Nie turned to Menqi.
Although he didn't ask again, the meaning was obvious.
Menqi immediately understood and said quickly: "Menqi Asti."
"..."
Lin Nie nodded slowly, then walked to the tree stump next to him and sat down very slowly.
It was as natural as returning to your own home.
Moyou and Menqi looked at each other.
The former felt that this elderly man seemed a bit strange.
The latter respected Lin Nie very much. Seeing Lin Nie staying at this moment, he was more surprised than other emotions.
Lin Nie sat on the tree stump with his hands lightly placed on his knees. There was no trace of emotion on his wrinkled face, and his dull old eyes looked at Poseidon on the cattail leaves.
Moyu noticed something.
Are you here to eat?
Thinking of this, Moyu didn't dare to ask any more questions.
With the way Menqi admired Lin Nie, Menqi would do his best to entertain her without Lin Nie opening her mouth.
Moyu could already predict this scene.
After all, the old man in front of him is the most powerful food hunter in the world.
Any food hunter who encounters her will only wonder if he can get advice from her.
At this moment, Menqi was indeed thinking about what kind of food to entertain Lin Nie, just as Moyou thought.
Stew, steam, braise, eat raw?
"I just made a condiment, let's eat it raw."
Menqi quickly made a decision, picked up the kitchen knife, and slashed Poseidon.
The sword flashed and the fish head separated.
Immediately afterwards, Menqi slashed the fish's body with his knife.
In just ten seconds, the work of dividing Poseidon was completed.
Lin Nie saw it but had no reaction.
Menqi removed the fattest part, cut it into translucent fish fillets with superb knife skills, and then plated it on washed cattail leaves.
The attention paid to the distribution process ensures the freshness of this fish.
Still, it's not as good as the moment I just captured.
Menqi looked at the sashimi plated on the leaf. His thoughts moved and he stretched out his hands to hang above the sashimi. The faintly shiny aura covered all the sashimi like a thin film.
"This time we must succeed!"
Menqi concentrated on activating his abilities.
Lin Nie's eyes were directed at the Qi released from Men Qi's palm, and he couldn't help but groan.
Moyu also saw Menqi's behavior, which was somewhat understandable.
But after more than half a month of development, the prototype of the capability has not yet been formed. It is basically impossible to succeed.
The facts are as Moyu judged.
Menqi failed, unable to pour her thoughts about "nian" into this plate of sashimi.
"..."
Menqi could not hide her disappointment.
Lin Nie looked at Men Qi who was gradually putting away his telepathy, and suddenly said: "You want to learn to run before you can walk?"
"I……"
When Lin Nie saw this, Men Qi had no way to refute.
Lin Nie said calmly: "You have to eat food one bite at a time, and the same goes for thoughts. Don't imagine that you can take such a big step all at once. The truth is to take it step by step."
"..."
Menqi heard this and looked back at Moyou.
Moyu nodded slightly.
Lin Nie naturally noticed their interaction and didn't care. He said succinctly:
"You have a good idea about 'Nian', but you are putting the cart before the horse. Consider the ingredients first and then the diners."
"Um?"
Menqi fell into deep thought after hearing this.
Just like Lin Nie said, her steps were indeed too big.
Should you consider the ingredients first?
Thinking of this, Menqi looked at Poseidon who was divided on the cattail leaf, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Lin Nie turned to look at Moyu.
It seems that he has the attitude of saying nothing if he can. When he wants something, Lin Nie will just keep looking at Moyu like this.
Fortunately, Moyou could sense Lin Nie's intention and brought the sashimi and condiments that Men Qi had just prepared in front of Lin Nie.
Lin Nie nodded with satisfaction.
For her, as long as she makes a phone call, Lin Nie Food Market will deliver any ingredients she wants to her.
But she won't deliberately pursue what she wants to eat today.
But now that she saw this good-quality Poseidon, it was equivalent to the delicacy she wanted to eat today.
Lin Nie quietly tasted the sashimi, and silently gave a passing grade to the condiments prepared by Menqi.
After a while.
All the sashimi was eaten by Lin Nie alone.
Moyu was secretly surprised.
The old man in front of him had one word that stood out in his words and deeds: slowness.
But when eating, he was not slow at all.
"pity."
Lin Nie put down his chopsticks, feeling quite regretful.
This island country has a specialty food called "sushi".
There was a deep-sea fish of outstanding quality in front of him, but there was no cooked rice to match it.
Men Qi heard Lin Nie's regretful muttering to herself and immediately came to her senses.
"Is there something I didn't do well?"
Looking at Lin Nie, Men Qi asked urgently.
No food hunter would care less about Lin Nie's comments.
Seeing Menqi's misunderstanding, Lin Nie did not waste his time answering the question directly. Instead, he directly introduced the delicacy "sushi".
After listening to Lin Nie's introduction, Men Qi looked stunned, while Mo You's eyes looked a little strange.
He was thinking that when Menqi becomes an examiner in the future, will he use "sushi" as a topic again?
"Master, I want to get some rice..."
In order to satisfy Lin Nie's needs, Men Qi wanted to get rice as quickly as possible.
Moyu nodded.
Upon seeing this, Men Qi immediately left the stronghold resolutely.
After Men Qi left, only Mo Yu and Lin Nie were left in the stronghold.
After a brief contact, Moyu knew that the other party had a habit of not speaking unless necessary, so he never thought of taking the initiative to find a topic.
Leaving Lin Nie alone, Moyu ran to the edge of the waterfall, and with plenty of time, began to practice his daily reading skills.
Meeting Lin Nie here was a good thing for Men Qi.
not far away.
Lin Nie stared at Moyou's back quietly, then stood up and walked to the Pu Ye, casually throwing a thought ball and landing on the cut fish.
Quietly, the thought ball suddenly turned into a layer of air film covering all the fish.
That air film seems to be able to lock in the freshness of the ingredients.
Two hours later.
Menqi brought back a bag of rice.
But the time it took made Menqi think about the freshness of the fish.
So on the way back, Menqi seemed very impatient.
"Eh?"
After rushing back, Menqi immediately checked the status of the fish.
To her surprise, the fish meat on the pu leaf was still fresh.
It's even fresher than when it was first delivered.
"How is this going……"
Menqi looked surprised.
She felt that this strange phenomenon might be related to Lin Nie.
But he had no time to delve deeper and started preparing the sushi that Lin Nie wanted to eat.
Now Menqi is like a contestant in a food competition.
Lin Nie, who was sitting on the tree stump, was the most important judge.
Night falls.
Lin Nie got his wish and ate sushi.
And she didn't expect that Menqi could make sushi that was above the standard just by listening to her dictation.
"good."
Lin Niegao glanced at Menqi.
The girl in front of her will definitely achieve great results in the future.
If she hadn't been a dying tree now, she might have considered letting Menqi stay with her for a few years.
However, during my stay on Potter Island, I can give Menqi some guidance in various aspects.
Just think of it as food money.
Lin Nie thought so.
When Men Qi heard Lin Nie's comments, she immediately jumped for joy.
Moyu watched from the side and felt that it would be a good thing if Lin Nie could stay for a while.
in the subsequent time.
Moyu completed 10,000 sword swings every day as usual, while Menqi, under the guidance of Lin Nie, made significant progress in developing his telekinesis ability.
According to Lin Nie’s words——
Food hunters who are willing to use "thinking capacity" for food preservation may not have any great achievements in the future.
But food hunters with great achievements will definitely apply "thinking capacity" to ensure the freshness of ingredients.
From these words, Moyu could guess that Lin Nie had similar telekinesis abilities and even tended to be an auxiliary type...
Perhaps because of this, he went to the Dark Continent with Nitro.
Anyway, for now, it seems that Menqi's mental ability development is no problem.
time flies……
Finally the last day came.
After three months of hard work, Moyu compressed the time of 10,000 sword swings into "twelve hours".
Moyu didn't know if such progress was considered excellent, but he had tried his best anyway.
"Time flies so fast."
Moyu was in a slightly complicated mood, and immediately began to swing the knife ten thousand times on the last day.
Initially this form of penance was undertaken in order to obtain rewards.
Now--
Moyu has decided that even if he gets the reward, he must stick to this training method.
Until he thinks he has gained something.
At noon.
Moyu swung the last knife.
There seemed to be a buzzing sound in the air, and the long knife hung steadily above the ground.
From the moment he completed the 10,000th swing of the sword, Moyu suddenly felt a surge of mental power.
At the same time, voices sounded from deep within his consciousness.
"Your week +1"
"Your righteousness. Ten thousand sword swings +1"
Not only that, Moyu also had some knife skills in his consciousness out of thin air.
It was as if it was something he was born with, and it naturally integrated into his cognition.
"Swinging the sword ten thousand times?"
Moyu was stunned for a moment.
The basic skill of using the sword was one of the rewards he could expect, but the reward of tens of thousands of swings of the sword was unexpected.
Moyu extracted the relevant information and was suddenly confused.
"Ten thousand sword swings in one year?"
Moyu didn't know what to say for a moment.
During these three months of hard training, he had originally decided to maintain the practice of swinging the sword ten thousand times.
As a result, the 10,000 sword swings just consumed were directly converted into 10,000 sword swings in a year.
This is really...
Moyu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
One year...
What are the rewards for completing it?
Advanced swordsmanship proficiency?
Zhou or hard skills +1?
Or is it the birth of a skill similar to Baishi Guanyin?
Moyu doesn't know.
But whether to start this year of sword-wielding penance still needs to be carefully considered.
When he first swung the sword, it took too long to complete, so Moyu didn't have the energy to synchronize the practice of telekinesis skills when swiping the sword.
Now the sword swing time has been reduced to "twelve hours", and I am fully capable of practicing thousands of sword swings in a "practice" state.
If this time can be reduced further...
Maybe you can complete thousands of sword swings in a "hard" state.
In this way, it can be said that it kills two birds with one stone, and it cannot be called a waste of time.
Lin Nie was tasting the stew carefully prepared by Menqi when he suddenly looked at Moyu standing at the edge of the waterfall.
"This breath..."
A look of doubt flashed across Lin Nie's eyes, and then he shook his head slightly.
When Men Qi saw Lin Nie shaking his head, his heart skipped a beat and he asked cautiously, "Does this soup taste bad?"
"..."
Lin Nie glanced at Men Qi when he heard this, and answered the question unreasonably: "Remember to take part in this year's hunter test. With your qualifications, there are no disadvantages in getting a hunter's license early."
"Well……"
Menqi breathed a sigh of relief.
After spending this time together, she had become accustomed to Lin Nie's incorrect answers to some questions.
He also found out the rules behind Lin Nie's behavior.
If you can do it without wasting the energy of speaking, you won't speak.
It also meant that in Lin Nie's opinion, there was no need to answer the question just now.
Because if it was really bad, Lin Nie would just throw the soup bowl onto the tree stump table next to him.
Menqi gave a false alarm and said with a smile: "I will go this year. Master also asked me to get the license quickly."
Lin Nie nodded, then looked at Moyu's back not far away.
interesting……
She whispered to herself.
The next day.
Moyo had no intention of wielding the sword ten thousand times a year for the time being, so he prepared to leave Potter Island.
I had previously planned to travel to Hanzo's country, but after hearing Menqi say that the residents there were extremely xenophobic, I gave up the idea.
"Do you want to come together?"
After packing his luggage, Moyu asked Lin Nie politely.
"..."
Lin Nie ignored Mo You's question, turned to look at Menqi, raised his finger and pointed at the mud ball beside the fire, and said lightly: "It's almost done."
"Um."
Menqi responded.
Moyu looked at Lin Nie who ignored his question and drooped his eyelids.
Yes, we are leaving together.
Like Menqi, he was used to Lin Nie not answering.
That means...most of them just default to yes.
After a while.
Moyu and the other three came to the beach.
There is a black spot on the distant sea.
That's the Elaine.
Soon, the Elian arrived offshore.
At the bow of the ship, the captain of the Ailian saw Lin Nie being supported by Men Qi, and his face was filled with shock.
Master Lin Nie will stay on the island for so long this time...
Could it be because of these two juniors? !
After sleeping all day, I still felt weak when I woke up. I was hungry but had no appetite for food.
I couldn't sit still, so I could only lie on the bed and code on my mobile phone. It felt like I was coding by willpower. .
After I finished writing, I didn’t have the energy to check it.
At present, I will finish my full attendance this month and then go to the hospital. I may have to be hospitalized for a while. .
