【0014】 Brother and brother
When the identity of the successor of the Wind Control Swordsmanship spread throughout the Swift Wind Sword Sect, the progress of Yasuo's [The Most Wandering Man] mission jumped a lot, directly reaching 86%, and Yasuo immediately saw the dawn of victory.
Sure enough, they didn't realize my strength before - Yasuo thought happily, without further thinking about the reason why everyone didn't realize it.
Anyway, now Yasuo has decided that the title of [Inheriter of Wind Control Swordsmanship] will be exchanged with the title of [Little Genius of the Swift Wind Sword Sect]. It is estimated that after two more times, his mission will be completed directly.
Just like that, in the evening of that day, when the pleased Yasuo was about to go back and rest early, Yongen came to him and expressed that he wanted to talk to him.
Seeing that Yongen, who usually practiced swordsmanship until late at night, took the initiative to find him during his daily practice time and wanted to talk to him, Yasuo nodded in surprise.
……………………
Following Yongen to the outside of the dojo, Yasuo looked at the silent Yongen and said curiously: "What's wrong with you? Are you stimulated? I have always been a genius - you don't have to worry about your difficulty in catching up with me.
I feel any loss because of my footsteps——"
"No, that's not the case." Yongen ignored Yasuo's playful smile and shook his head seriously, "Yasuo, my brother, I will never feel disappointed because you are more talented than me. On the contrary, I
I will only be proud of it - I will be proud because I have a genius brother."
"Then what are you doing?" Seeing Yongen's unprecedented solemn posture, Yasuo also put away his smile, "What? Are you worried about something?"
"I'm indeed worried." Yongen couldn't help but sigh and handed a seed to Yasuo, "I'm worried about you."
Yasuo took the seed.
The round seed was wrapped in a coat that looked like cicada wings, and Yasuo recognized its identity at a glance - the seed of a maple tree.
And Yasuo knew that the seeds of the maple tree represented a humble admonishment for the Gale Sword Sect: a seed is just a seed, and only after a long period of cultivation will the beauty inside it be known to others.
Yongen was really worried about Yasuo. He saw the whole process of Yasuo and Elder Souma fighting. Like Elder Souma, he also felt the determination contained in Yasuo's last sword.
A decisiveness that should not appear in a fight with one's own master.
"Are you worried about my pride?" Yasuo obviously understood what Yongen meant. "Are you worried that I can't control myself because of my pride? Are you worried that I will make a mistake that I will never forget because of my pride?"
Yongen nodded silently.
A smile appeared on Yasuo's face again. He stuffed the seed into the bag on his waist and sat down with his back against a maple tree.
"I admit, sometimes I am indeed very proud." Yasuo looked at Yongen, who still looked worried next to him, and shrugged helplessly, "But to be honest, the move I chose to use just now did not come from him.
Pride or impulsiveness - because from the very beginning, I knew that although that move was dangerous enough, it would not cause any trouble to Elder Suma at all."
"Why?"
Yongen was a little unbelievable - he really thought that Yasuo was evenly matched with Elder Summa within six swords, and now Yasuo suddenly said that move was useless, which was completely beyond his expectation.
.
"Do you still remember the third trial we went through when we were in Zephyr Village?" Yasuo motioned for Yongen to sit next to him. "At that time, the sword guard said that we should follow the spirit of the wind to find the key point.
"
"Remember." Yongen nodded, "You made a lot of noise that time, but the elders and the sword guards kept it secret afterwards."
"That time, I borrowed the Sword Guard's sword." Yasuo's tone sounded like he was remembering the past, "Then I struck a sword similar to the one just now."
Yongen, who was sitting next to Yasuo, widened his eyes in disbelief.
Yongen had never doubted his brother's talent, but he never imagined that Yasuo could master such a terrifying move at that time!
"Don't get me wrong." Yasuo seemed to see what Yongen was thinking and waved his hand towards him, "I didn't master any wind sword skills at that time. It was just that for the sake of the trial, the wind spirit was too active.
That’s all.”
After hearing what Yasuo said, Yongen finally nodded.
"Then, Elder Suma was on the outskirts of the trial." Yasuo recalled the situation at that time, full of emotion in his heart, "He didn't even draw his sword, but he eliminated the storm I had stirred up - so just now,
I know very well that that sword can only break two wooden swords, and there will be no danger, so I took action like this."
Hearing this, Yongen finally let out a long breath.
"If everything I did at that time really came from impulsiveness and recklessness." Yasuo stretched out and patted Yongen on the shoulder, "How could Elder Souma let me go so easily——
Although he is a bit narrow-minded and saves face, he is not afraid of being threatened by me just because of such a trivial matter..."
"As for why I work so hard..."
"That's another thing - don't worry, my brother, at least I have never been a reckless person, nor a betrayer."
"A lot of times, I just have an unusual sense of urgency."
After stretching, Yasuo twisted his arm and finally helped Yongen to stand up.
"My right arm is really feeling a little uncomfortable. I'm afraid I need to take a medicinal bath - remember to tell Elder Yuanlan for me. I'm afraid I need to take a leave from today's evening class."
After saying that, Yasuo happily returned to the dojo, went to the bathhouse to apply for a medicinal bath, and also changed into new clothes.
Yongen, on the other hand, sat under the maple tree and stared at the sunset in silence for a long time.
He remembered something he once asked Yasuo when he was a child.
"Is the wind hiding or chasing?"
What about Yasuo?
Where does his sense of urgency come from?
Is he hiding or chasing?
It wasn't until the evening class bell rang that Yongen got up in a hurry - when he returned to the dojo, he suddenly had an enlightenment and finally a smile appeared on his lips.
No matter whether you are hiding or chasing - the wind is always the wind!
The rope can never tie up the strong wind. The only thing that can resist the strong wind is the strong wind.
After thinking about everything, Yongen made his own decision. This time, he did not help Yasuo ask for leave.
The next day, Yasuo was hung up and beaten by Elder Souma because he was absent from evening classes for no reason. During the whole process, Yasuo tried to defend himself, but it had no effect.
As for why Elder Suma, who has always doted on Yasuo, did this uncharacteristically...
