Chapter 34 The knife is more handsome than the sword! !

"Teach me swordsmanship." Su Changan said.

Yan Ruyu was stunned for a moment, then looked at Su Changan: "I can't teach you."

Su Changan was a little unhappy.

But before Su Changan could speak, Yan Ruyu shook the red goose-feather knife that had been undrawn from her waist, and said, "I use a knife."

Su Changan was speechless for a moment, but he remembered that on his first day, he saw Yan Ruyu practicing with a sword in the yard, so he asked, "Don't you know how to use a sword?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "I wanted to learn it a while ago so I learned a little bit, but I just saw that Mr. Yuan decided to give up."

After saying that, Yan Ruyu frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "It's not that Mr. Yuan is wrong, I just feel that a knife is indeed stronger than a sword."

Su Changan was silent.

Because I don't understand.

The literal meaning is definitely understood, that is, Yan Ruyu thinks that those who play with knives are better than those who play with swords, but if you think about it carefully,

Um!

I can't tell the difference.

Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan in confusion, and after thinking for a while, she said, "You can understand it as edge. I haven't drawn my sword for a year and a half because I need to keep it in the scabbard to maintain its edge. So if I don't draw my sword, it won't have an edge. A sword doesn't need to be maintained. On the contrary, the sharper the edge, the better. Although Mr. Yuan didn't bring his 'Tu Shui Sword' with him today, at his current stage, he already has the edge of a sword. Although it is restrained, one can feel its sharpness."

Su Changan blinked and said, "Speak in plain language that I can understand."

Yan Ruyu pressed the hilt of the knife at her waist with her hand: "Mr. Yuan can't beat me."

Su Changan suddenly realized, and then gave him a thumbs up and said, "As expected of you who protected me, you are really amazing."

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "It has nothing to do with this. It's because of the rank. I'm rank eight and Mr. Yuan is only rank six, so he can't beat me. If the ranks are the same, I can't beat him. My mother once said that Mr. Yuan suddenly gave up swordsmanship to practice calligraphy, and then took another path of swordsmanship, honing calligraphy, using the horizontal, vertical, left and right strokes of calligraphy as swordsmanship, and honing calligraphy experience as sword tactics. The road is difficult, but if you can get through it..."

At this point, Yan Ruyu hesitated and said, "I don't know what will happen then. But Mr. Yuan's move is worthy of respect. The way of martial arts is harder to create than to learn, and it is harder than ascending to heaven. It may be like this for the rest of your life. If Mr. Yuan had not taken this path, I am afraid he would be at least at the ninth level now, or even have reached the end."

Su Changan had a lot of questions, but after thinking about it, he felt that the end was too far away from him, so he just looked at Yan Ruyu and asked, "Want to discuss something?"

Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan and said, "Miss Changan, please give me your orders. I will do my best to do what I can."

Su Changan pursed his lips and said, "I don't think I can learn your sword skills. They are too advanced. So why don't you teach me the sword skills you said you knew? You don't plan to learn anyway, and this way I will have some self-protection ability. Otherwise, you will be so tired. And just think about me holding a sword, and I think it's pretty cool."

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu was stunned for a moment, then bowed to Su Changan with a fist clasped: "Miss Changan, please don't speak against your conscience."

Su Changan was shocked: "Ah?"

When did I speak against my conscience?!

Yan Ruyu stood up again and looked at Su Changan seriously: "The knife is more handsome than the sword."

Very good, I didn’t expect this girl to be so persistent.

But on second thought, Su Changan immediately asked: "So you want to teach me how to use a knife? I think it's okay! I think I'd look pretty cool holding a knife."

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "I can't teach you. I'm just telling you that a knife is more handsome than a sword."

Su Changan was a little anxious: "You've been dithering for so long, why don't you teach me a word! You're an eighth-rank master, but you're even narrow-minded than that fat kid Su Zhaoxin."

Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan and said, "Your Majesty has not ordered me to teach you, so I cannot teach you."

Su Changan was unhappy and blurted out: "Why is she so nosy!"

Yan Ruyu looked at Su Changan without saying anything, but her silence was more powerful than words, as if she was saying, "How can she be so lenient?"

Su Changan was helpless, because he thought of...

The empress is really capable of taking care of so many things.

Yan Ruyu glanced at Su Wan'er who had already sorted out the calligraphy and ran over, and said softly, "If His Majesty agrees, I can teach you."

After saying that, he thought for a while and added: "You can also ask my mother. If my mother agrees, I can also teach you the sword of our Yan family."

Hearing this!

Su Changan decided in his heart that he had to appease the empress as much as possible.

But thinking of Yan Ruyu's mother, the commander-in-chief of the Chixia Army and the Huanglong Guard, the personal guard of the Imperial Empress, said: "Why do you listen to your mother so much?"

Yan Ruyu was silent for a moment, as if hesitating whether to answer or not, but after a long while she said softly, "If you don't obey, you will be beaten."

After a moment of silence, Su Changan patted Yan Ruyu on the shoulder and said, "Don't be sad. I understand how you feel. But if you think about it, this is actually quite good. At least you still have a mother to beat you, right?"

Yan Ruyu was stunned and immediately thought of Su Changan's life experience.

But what should I say?

Su Wan'er has already run over.

And right at the gate of the yard, Maomao walked in with a bunch of things in his arms, followed by five servants of the Su mansion.

Look at those things.

Including the cat, there are six people.

Four people were holding the things Su Changan wanted, and the other two were holding baskets full of medicinal herbs.

Su Changan narrowed his eyes and looked at Maomao.

You took a lot of medicinal materials in my name, didn't you?!

…

Since the ingredients have been brought here, there is naturally no need to wait any longer.

Let’s put aside the matter of learning martial arts for now. The most important thing right now is to make the empress happy. This is the big deal.

When I got to the kitchen, I saw that the charcoal and firewood on the ground were still a little hot, so I knocked them a few times to get the cool parts down.

I picked it up, found a piece of paper and scribbled a few lines on it.

Not the right one, but good enough.

After all, Su Changan didn't study painting specifically in his previous life. He was just curious at the beginning, so he learned a little bit of sketching and basic comic operations.

The drawing is not good, but it's good enough.

He clumsily took the carbon black and began to draw sparsely on the paper, recalling the appearance of the empress.

On the side, Su Wan'er, Yan Ruyu, Maomao and others watched curiously.

The three people have already seen that Su Changan is going to paint, although they don't quite understand what kind of painting method this is, but.

Looking at the woman who appeared on the paper, although she was not very good, she looked realistic.

but

Immediately, Yan Ruyu and Maomao were a little stunned, because when they looked at the woman under the carbon black Su Changan, she looked like an empress?

Especially the teardrop mole that Su Changan deliberately drew at the corner of his eye.

Su Wan'er had never seen the empress, but she felt that her elder sister had used such a strange way to draw a woman. Although it looked a little strange and the lines were crooked, she always felt that she was a little pretty.

Although in the girl's opinion, she is still not as pretty as her older sister.

only

The girl was a little confused as to who this person was and why she asked her elder sister to draw him like this.

Not long.

Su Changan looked at the "Empress" he had drawn and said with some satisfaction: "Well, not bad. Perfect."

Yan Ruyu was already exhausted from watching it, but she was sure that the painting was of the empress. After all, it had all the characteristics that an empress should have, but...it didn't look like her.

Maomao couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he went back to mess with the herbs he had just gotten.

Su Wan'er looked at the painting and originally thought it was pretty, but now at the end, she felt that the little bit of beauty was gone, and it felt even weirder.

Yan Ruyu already knew that Su Changan was probably going to send the empress away, so she said, "It's better not to."

Su Changan was stunned for a moment, then looked down at his work: "What's wrong? Isn't this good?"

Yan Ruyu was helpless, but still said truthfully: "I'm afraid that person will be even more angry."

After all, Su Wan'er was there, so some things couldn't be said explicitly, but Su Changan could also hear it.

but

Before Su Changan could say anything, Su Wan'er already knew that this was a gift from her elder sister. Although the girl was wondering who this girl was who could have such a great person like her elder sister paint her for her.

Can.
