Chapter 502 Sword
Driven by a warrior's instinct, he suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed the hand holding the sword.
"ah--!"
A short, low cry was heard from the carriage. Nan Yan was so frightened that her hand trembled and the dagger in her hand fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty..."
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't say anything, but frowned as he looked at her pale little face. Then he lowered his head and saw the sword lying on the car floor.
A small wooden sword.
He reached out to pick it up: "What is this?"
Nan Yan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. This, this is a wooden sword and cannot hurt anyone. I am not—"
It seemed that she thought she suspected her of assassination.
But at that moment just now, even he almost thought he was being assassinated, if he hadn't seen that the person holding the sword was her.
Zhu Feng coughed lightly and said, "I ask you, what is this for?"
"A wooden sword...for self-defense."
"Self-defense?"
"Yes, Xiaoyu gave it to me." Nan Yan looked up at him and said softly, "Before, I asked Xiaoyu to teach me some self-defense methods. In this way, if I encounter danger, even if I can't protect the emperor, at least I won't drag him down."
“…”
"So, she shaved this for the slave."
Zhu Feng didn't say anything for a moment.
Just looking at her cautious and serious look, I felt a little angry and a little funny.
After a while, he said, "What can you do with this thing?"
After saying that, he threw the wooden sword aside.
"Why!"
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment. Before she could say anything, Zhu Feng had already pulled out a dagger from his waist and handed it to her.
"You, use this."
Feeling something heavy in her hand, Nan Yan looked down and saw a short sword made of fine steel. As she drew the sword from its sheath, a flash of cold light shot out.
The sword's blade is thin and sharp.
You can feel an invisible but oncoming sharpness.
Even a layman can see that this is a good sword.
Although it is only as long as my arm, if it is longer, I may not be able to hold it.
Nan Yan looked up at Zhu Feng in surprise: "Your Majesty, this——"
"This is called a sword, you know."
Zhu Feng rolled his eyes at her and pulled her in front of him: "I'll teach you."
Feeling his chest pressing against her back, a breath belonging only to him suddenly enveloped her. Nan Yan became a little nervous and held on tighter.
Zhu Feng lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "When wielding a sword, use force on your wrist so that it can be flexible."
He took her hand and taught her to hold the hilt of the sword
"The main ways to use a sword are to strike, stab, point, lift, block, and stir... You can't remember too many, so these few are enough."
“…”
"The sword is not heavy, nor does it require strength, only dexterity and agility."
“…”
At this time, Nan Yan was both nervous and excited.
Sweat kept pouring out of her forehead, but she gritted her teeth and tried her best to remember what Zhu Feng said to her.
Zhu Feng held her hand, then the sword, and taught her every striking technique, saying, "Those dancers you see dancing with swords are just fancy moves. In actual combat, you don't need so many moves."
“…”
"If you make those moves, someone can hurt you with just one sword strike."
Nan Yan bit her lower lip and nodded slightly.
Do as he taught you step by step.
Although the carriage was spacious, it was just a carriage after all. It would be difficult for a person to use a sword in it. She could only try her best to understand what Zhu Feng taught her.
Just as she thrust her sword with precise force and Zhu Feng nodded slightly, the carriage stopped.
"Your Majesty, we have reached the north of the city."
