22. The teaching of Beidou
Xiang Wan gently moved his thighs that were a little raw from the Zama Step. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his body, he looked at Beidou and asked, "What other exercises do I need to do next?"
Seeing Xiang Wan's extremely anxious look, Beidou shook his head helplessly and sighed, "I know you are anxious, but you must not rush for quick success in your cultivation."
"As far as I know, you can become a strong person even without the Eye of God."
"What's more, the eye of God is not something you are born with."
"I……"
Xiang Wan lowered her head slowly, but Beidou caught the flash of sadness in her eyes. She took Xiang Wan's hand and walked towards the practice room.
Soon, the two of them arrived on the deck, and the warm sea breeze blowing in front of them carried a faint fishy smell.
"How does it feel?"
Feeling the sea breeze, Xiang Wan opened his arms and slowly closed his eyes. The hem of his clothes rustled in the sea breeze, and his tense nerves completely relaxed.
Xiang Wan took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly. He faced Beidou who was leaning on the railing and looking at him with interest. For some reason, he saw in Beidou's eyes the endless tenderness and the kind of love a big sister has for her younger brother.
Pamper.
This feeling was very strange. Xiang Wan's cheeks were slightly red. He gently stroked his cheeks and asked doubtfully: "Sister Beidou, is there something on my face?"
Beidou looked at Xiang Wan quietly. She didn't know why, but from the first meeting, she could always feel some inexplicable kindness from Xiang Wan. Even after years of sailing with Beidou, she had seen all kinds of people.
She is a human being, but she has never met someone like Xiang Wan who can bring her kindness and stability just by staying with him.
Unlike Xiang Ling's innocent enthusiasm, Xiang Wan's ability is not emitted independently, but can only be felt after contact with it. However, Xiang Wan, as the person involved, is not aware of this charm.
It's like Xiang Wan's innate ability.
Looking at Xiang Wan's handsome appearance, Beidou stretched out his hand and placed it on Xiang Wan's cheek. Although she had been practicing swordplay since she was a child, her hands were very well maintained and very soft, and the intensity when stroking and kneading was also very moderate. She was pinched by Beidou
Xiang Wan actually felt very comfortable on her cheeks.
At first, Beidou just wanted Xiang Wan to relax her mood, but once she started using it, she found that Xiang Wan's cheeks felt surprisingly good to the touch, soft and fleshy, and then she couldn't put it down.
After touching it for a long time, Xiang Wan returned to normal. Beidou actually felt a little embarrassed, so she slowly withdrew her hand.
"Don't be impatient, I will help you..."
Looking at the coast in the distance, Beidou held the railing, exerted a slight force on his hand and then slowly released it, a smile flashed in his eyes.
"Sister Beidou."
"Um?"
"Give me another sip of wine."
Beidou handed the wine bottle to Xiang Wan, and then patted Xiang Wan on the shoulder.
"Figured out?"
Picking up the wine bottle, Xiang Wan took a slow sip of the wine, gargled it in her mouth, and swallowed it mixed with the faint smell of blood.
"I really can't be too tired. I have to go back to cook for Hutao in the evening~"
The tenderness in his eyes gradually dissipated, and Xiang Wan stretched out while holding the wine bottle.
"Sister Beidou, I want to hear your story."
"Tell me~"
"my story?"
Xiang Wan nodded.
"Once I start telling my story, I can't finish it for seven days and seven nights. I wonder which part you want to hear?"
"Can one really become a strong person without the Eye of God?"
Taking the wine bottle from Xiang Wan's hand, Beidou took two big sips and then made a comfortable sound.
The majestic twin peaks on the chest look particularly spectacular under the sunlight.
"Of course you can, provided you put in enough effort."
Beidou rubbed the wine bottle while she looked into Xiang Wan's black eyes.
"Although this may not be appropriate for me to say, I think I can be your goal at this stage."
"When I cut down the sea and mountain with one sword, I didn't have the eye of God."
Beidou picked up the Eye of God hanging on his belt. There was no emotion on his face, and his eyes were unwavering, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth could clearly show Beidou's state of mind at the moment.
In Beidou's view, the Eye of God is just the icing on the cake.
Even if it doesn't, it won't affect a person's strength.
After going home after drinking yesterday, Xiang Wan was chatting with Hu Tao at night and heard many rumors about Beidou from Hu Tao. Among them was the story of Beidou carrying a sword on his back and heading straight to the sea mountain, and then slaying him with one sword.
At that time, Hutao looked like a little fangirl of Beidou. She praised Beidou so much that she wished she could sail with Beidou every day.
"Sister Beidou, thank you."
Beidou chuckled. She stood up on her tiptoes and held Xiang Wan's neck, pressing Xiang Wan's whole body into her arms.
"Just drink with me next time."
"You must drink so much that you can't be found!"
"Isn't Beidou-sensei just Bei?"
Beidou was stunned for a moment, then rubbed Xiang Wan's hair with his big hands, looked up to the sky and laughed.
"Even if you are like this, I will not show any mercy during training!"
"Please be strict with me."
"How much do you like that girl Hutao?"
Xiang Wan thought for a while, and then the room fell into silence.
"Why haven't you spoken? Are you unable to answer?"
"I'm overjoyed and speechless."
"Good boy, I didn't expect you to have a glib side."
"It seems that Hutao has trained you well."
"But that girl is too restrained in front of me. She doesn't look like the rumors at all. Do I look fierce?"
Beidou touched his chin, a faint doubt flashing in his eyes.
After getting in touch with each other in the past two days, Xiang Wan not only saw Beidou's cute side when he was drunk, but also saw Beidou's stern side during practice today. When he comforted Xiang Wan just now, Xiang Wan saw Sister Beidou's gentle thoughts. As for now, Beidou revealed
The confused look on his face made him look a little naive and a little silly.
"No way. Sister Beidou is so powerful and so beautiful, and her mind is as broad as the boundless sea. She admires you, Hutao!"
Beidou's cheeks turned red quickly as he listened to Xiang Wan's explanation. She turned her head and looked at Liyue's ancient and shy face.
"Isn't this something you just made up to please me?"
Xiang Wan waved his hand.
"How can it be!"
"After I went back after drinking yesterday, Hu Tao's little face was full of excitement when he mentioned you."
"You also asked me when I can have dinner with you again."
Beidou combed his bangs and tucked the hair behind his ears.
"Yes...is it...?"
"Did she really tell you that?"
Xiang Wan kept nodding his head, and he could feel that Hu Tao's admiration for Beidou came from the bottom of his heart.
"of course!"
"Why don't you, Sister Beidou, come to my house for dinner tonight?"
"Hu Tao will definitely be very happy."
"Before that, please accompany me to Bubu Lu."
