Quan Ge'er was suddenly attacked, but he did not panic. He blocked it with his sword. Xie Wanyun suddenly lowered his wrist and stabbed his lower body with the candlestick.
Quan Ge'er jumped up lightly, and before he landed, the candlestick in Xie Wanyun's hand hit his calf heavily.
Quan Ge'er was unable to dodge this time. He let out a cry of surprise, but quickly used the sword in his hand to support his body and fell to one knee with a thud.
All this happened in a flash, and the speed of both of them was dizzying.
Liu Yun'er was so frightened that she screamed and rushed over.
Xie Wanyun raised his elbow to block, but Liu Yuner bumped into him headfirst. She felt a surge of blood in her chest and was unable to move even a step.
Quan Ge'er struggled to his feet, still a little unconvinced.
Xie Wanyun slammed the candlestick down on the table, his eyes stern as he said to him, "Do you know where you went wrong just now?"
"I'm not familiar with the sword moves, and my changes are not fast enough." Brother Quan wiped the sweat off his forehead, bit his cheek, and his little face was puffed up.
"Wrong. Your mistake is that you shouldn't think about what moves to use!" Xie Wanyun deliberately didn't finish his words, waiting for Quan Ge'er to figure it out on his own.
Sure enough, Quan Ge'er's face was full of confusion, and he asked hesitantly, "Madam, I don't understand. Shouldn't I use the most sophisticated moves to defend against the enemy? Otherwise, why would I practice sword moves?"
"Let me ask you, why do you practice martial arts and swordsmanship?" Xie Wanyun asked coldly, "Is it to look good and to show off your reputation, or is it to fight in battle?"
Quan Ge'er puffed out his small chest and shouted, "Of course I want to go into battle and kill the enemy! When I grow up, I want to be a general!"
"In battle, you rely on agility, strength, and reflexes. A split second can decide life or death, so where's the time to use sword techniques?! When I stabbed you in the lower body, you dodged it, which was good, but after you leaped up, instead of attacking me from above, you tried to confront me with the sword techniques you'd just practiced. This robbed you of the opportunity to strike first. Do you understand?"
Xie Wanyun's expression was stern, and his voice was like ice crystal, clear and cold. Yet, it also carried a hint of tenderness and a subtle expectation.
The sound was like snowflakes from the sky, slowly falling and seeping into Quan Ge'er's consciousness.
Quan Ge'er almost held his breath, opened his eyes wide, and listened carefully to every word she said.
Gradually, his eyes became brighter and brighter, as if something new had entered his mind. He blinked and thought.
Xie Wanyun just looked at him quietly, without urging him. Some things cannot be taught, and can only be understood by himself. Whether he can understand, and how much he can understand, depends on his individual karma.
Like painting, music, and literature, some people can become masters at a young age, while others can only become craftsmen even if they work hard all their lives.
This is determined by talent and cannot be achieved by human power.
Suddenly, Quan Ge'er put his hand on his chest and said loudly, "Madam, I understand! The moves are to train my reaction and speed. When I really face the enemy, as long as I can defeat the opponent, I can use any moves, even no moves, right?!"
A smile appeared on Xie Wanyun's lips.
Quan Ge'er understood. Her careful instruction these days had paid off. This child had a good understanding and was a natural for martial arts.
She patted Quan Ge'er on the head and said, "You're right!"
She has always been strict with Quan Ge'er and rarely praises him. At most, she nods to indicate that he is okay.
Quan Ge'er was so happy to receive such affirmation that he almost jumped up! Turning around, he found Liu Yun'er still standing there in a daze.
Liu Yun'er felt like her heart was being fried in oil, she was in pain and anxious.
Seeing that her son was so dependent on Xie Wanyun, he even ignored her as his own mother.
