I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 21 Relationship
Practice sword skills in the yard.

Then today, because it was early, I took a shower, washed off the sweat, and then ate a bowl of millet porridge.

Pei Ju could never feel full with the porridge his grandfather cooked at home, or rather, even if he did, he still couldn't keep himself from getting hungry. When he was growing up, it was not enough to just drink porridge.

So, I often buy meat buns outside to eat.

After eating Zhou You’s big meat buns for two consecutive days, he no longer looks down on other small buns.

But it’s probably impossible for Zhou You to buy it for himself now.

Carrying a flat wooden stick and a schoolbag, I bought two meat buns and a steamed bun on Qianmen Street at the entrance of the alley and headed towards school.

Along the way, he looked at the pedestrians on the street and the students going to school, which made him feel like a new life.

Last night he followed his uncle in wandering around the world, experiencing all kinds of intrigues and fighting with knives, just to earn a bite to eat. Although making money was no longer his uncle's first goal, it was still dazed compared to what he saw now.

He reached out and gripped the handle of the stick at his waist to calm himself down.

I walked quickly all the way and entered the classroom before the bell rang.

Most of the people in the classroom were already there. He walked into the classroom as the bell rang and saw Ye Youruo sitting there. He couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here so early?"

They have been sitting together for a few days and are quite familiar with each other. Last night, they even took a class together in another place.

"I was taking the bus and saw you walking on the bus." Ye Youruo replied.

"Oh!" Pei Ju was a little surprised that she actually took the bus by herself.

On the other side, a girl with golden hair in the middle left position also looked back at him. He felt it but did not meet her eyes.

Class, get out of class is over, class, get out of class is over.

I listen to the teacher's chatter in class and play with classmates after class.

The boys loved to play around in the corridor, especially at the beginning of the semester when everyone hadn't yet established their status and loved to use play to establish their authority. Of course, no one picked on Pei Ju.

Because a tall and strong classmate came to play with him before, and he had heard that Pei Ju was very powerful, so he wanted to test him, so he reached out and hugged Pei Ju. Pei Ju was not shorter than him, but he was thin, while the other party was very strong.

If someone was hugged, it would not be easy to break free, so when Pei Ju was about to hug the other person but had not yet closed his arms, he turned sideways and took a step back. The other person thought that Pei Ju was retreating, so he took a step forward.

At this moment, Pei Ju bent down and pushed into his arms, and at the same time, his foot blocked the foot that was moving forward. His feet suddenly floated, and his body was pushed up again, and he immediately lost his center of balance. Pei Ju only exerted force to the side with his hands, and he fell to the ground.

After that, no one played with him again until that day when Yuan Baiyi came to find him. Then, Yuan Baiyi was beaten by him in the sword club and had to change schools.

When he was lying in the corridor, there was suddenly another person next to him.

It was Liu Yijiajia.

"Pei Ju, what are you looking at?" Liu Yijiajia asked in a clear and cheerful voice. Pei Ju turned his head to look at her. Her hair seemed to be glowing in the sunlight.

"I was thinking it would be nice if people could run on this wall." Pei Ju didn't try to avoid her deliberately.

"How is it possible for a person to run on a wall?" Liu Yijiajia said in surprise.

"This world is so crazy, maybe someone can do it." Pei Ju sighed.

"Ah, Pei Ju, have you seen him?" Liu Yiji looked at Pei Ju with curious eyes blinking.

Pei Ju shook his head.

At this time, the bell rang and the two of them had to go back to the classroom immediately.

I had lunch at noon and had a Chinese language test in the afternoon. The composition topic was one that hadn’t appeared in a long time.

My dream.

When I was young, I wrote an essay with a topic like this.

I am now in the first year of high school. Last semester, I took my first Chinese language test and the questions were also like this.

However, he remembered that his dream he had written before was to become a swordsman.

Now he writes about wanting to grow up quickly. [I want to grow up quickly]

This is the title of his composition.

That day, when he came back from his mother's place, he saw his grandfather sitting alone on the sofa and dozing off. Thinking that his grandfather was still waiting there when he came home so late, he felt that he was a burden to his grandfather, so he wanted to grow up quickly.

After school in the afternoon, he met Zhou You.

Zhou You passed by him, then stopped and said, "I've figured it out. It's not your fault. It was me who didn't sign my name. I've written another letter this time."

When Pei Ju first heard Zhou You stop to talk, he was very happy, because he thought Zhou You was a good person and he didn't want to lose such a classmate and friend. After all, they were classmates in junior high school.

Moreover, he would buy himself some buns and reflect on himself.

However, he actually wrote another letter, which made Pei Ju a little resistant. He was afraid of causing some misunderstanding, and Liu Yijia had already told him clearly that day. If Zhou You continued to send love letters every day, he would think that Zhou You was a little bit weird.

"Are you also sending Liu Yijiajia?" Pei Ju asked.

"No, doesn't Liu Yijia like you? I think Wang Xiaoxia in your class is also very good. Can you help me deliver it?" Zhou You took out a letter from his pocket. This time it was on blue paper.

He was a little afraid to look at Pei Ju.

"Have you written your name?" Pei Ju suddenly didn't know what to say, but he still took it.

"I've written it." Zhou You said quickly.

"Okay, I'll have someone take it for you, but school is over now, so we have to wait until tomorrow."

"Okay, let's do it tomorrow, but you can't lose it. You'd better return it to me first, and I'll give it to you tomorrow." Zhou You asked for the letter back. It was not known whether he was really afraid that Pei Ju would lose it, or if he was afraid that Pei Ju would peek at it.

"Come on, I'll take you." Zhou You said happily.

"Okay." Pei Ju naturally did not refuse.

But before they had ridden for long, a group of people caught up with them. Among them was a blonde girl walking alongside them. She looked at Pei Ju and shouted, "Pei Ju, where's your bike?"

"It was stolen." Pei Ju answered while sitting in the back of the car.

"Ah, where was it stolen?" Liu Yiji asked again.

"North District, Niuma Street." Pei Ju said.

"Oh, you went there too. It's fun there, with lots of snacks. Let's go there again someday." Liu Yijiajia said with some excitement.

"I may not have much time." Pei Ju said.

"Then, can I come to your place to play with you on Saturday and Sunday?" Liu Yijiajia asked again.

"This Saturday, I'm going to a place to practice sword." Pei Ju said.

"Ah, I'll go wherever you practice." Liu Yijiajia said immediately.

So Pei Ju said that he was going to practice sword in order to get the swordsman certificate, but Liu Yijiajia still said that she wanted to practice too.

Zhou You, who was pedaling the bike in front, said nothing, but his back was bent more than usual.

When he returned home, Zhou You was already sweating all over.

After Pei Ju thanked him, he just said, "Just help me deliver the letter tomorrow."

Pei Ju felt that he had a very good mentality.

Entering the yard, I saw an old man sitting in the training hall, accompanied by a young man.

"Juzi, you're back! Your grandfather has been waiting for you to come back." The young man said with a smile.

Pei Ju looked at his grandfather, who said, "Come with me into the hut."

"Okay." Pei Ju became a little excited. When Xiao Qiu came before, he was about to go in, but in the end he went into the [Mountain Jun Temple].
