I am a swordsman in a strange city

Chapter 31 Shoemaker
The shoemaker's name is Xie Guolong. Although his ancestors were not wealthy, they had some special skills, but they were lost by the time his father came along. His grandfather only knew a little bit, and his father was lazy, but at least he let him learn the skills of repairing and making shoes.

It suddenly rained today, so he came back immediately. However, after getting caught in the rain, he felt uncomfortable for some reason. He was sweating as if he was dehydrated. His whole body was wet, as if he was wrapped in a layer of water. He wanted to drink water very much, and finally he sat under the tap in the toilet and splashed water on himself.

The water feels cool when it hits my body, but there is an inexplicable sense of comfort.

He didn't want to move at all. He felt like a fish on the shore, surviving on this little bit of water.

Just then, he heard something like a knock on the door.

His instinct told him yes, but the knock on the door seemed to come through the water.

He even had a feeling that he was entangled by the water.

He wanted to get up and open the door, but he couldn't move at all. The two times he moved were like the leaps of a dying fish.

Continuous knocking on the door, followed by questioning.

He couldn't get up, and at that moment, he vaguely heard someone shouting, "Hey, I'm here, Naonao is out of school. I was repairing shoes on the street in front and got caught in the rain, so I took shelter under someone's house."

"Comrade Xingwu, thank you for sending my son Naonao back home. Thank you so much. How about having dinner at my house? I'm going to stew a chicken and cook a big fish today."

"Thank you, but that's not necessary. We still have other people to send home. What's your name?" said a criminal police officer.

The shoemaker's series of words, his familiarity, and the hint of flattery in his tone immediately made people relax their guard.

However, the special forces personnel outside still asked his name according to the procedure, and he answered one by one. Even his son Nao Nao was not nervous at all.

However, Xie Guolong, who was still flushing the water in the house, was extremely panicked.

"I'm here, who's that person outside?"

"That's not me, that's a ghost. He's a spook."

However, his mouth just opened and closed, and every time he opened his mouth, some bubbles came out of his mouth, but no sound came out at all.

The criminal special forces member still followed his procedure and pressed the ghost detection sound box twice.

The other party didn't react.

So the criminal special forces team asked the other party to sign.

Everything was going smoothly and there was nothing special about it, but for some reason, Pei Ju had a bad feeling.

It’s hard to describe this feeling because it’s just a feeling.

In the temple's sacred ground, he had seen many strange things along with his 'Third Uncle'. He watched his Third Uncle slay ghosts and monsters, and he himself had practiced swordplay since he was a child, often chopping incense and meditating, cultivating a clear mind for swordsmanship.

The Pei family has actually been teaching the temple’s tradition all along.

So he has his own feelings about some things, and he now has a very bad feeling about this shoemaker.

The other person gave him a wet feeling. Moreover, he had not spoken to him since he came in until he was about to leave. He even just glanced at him, and this glance did not feel good to him because it was not the look that an acquaintance should have.

He had been holding the stick handle tightly, and the red belt had been untied. Now he couldn't help but hold the stick tightly.

Then he looked at the three criminal special forces personnel and found that they were not looking at him. It was not a good time to remind them, so he thought it would be better to tell them his thoughts after leaving here, so that everyone would be better prepared.

After that, he glanced at Ye Youruo again and found that she was also staring at the shoemaker. After Ye Youruo felt that Pei Ju was looking at her, the two of them locked eyes and knew that the other party was also suspicious, but neither of them showed any emotion.

The shoemaker signed, all in one go.

Pei Ju glanced at the other party's handwriting, but he couldn't tell whether it was any different from the original shoemaker's.

As they turned to leave, the shoemaker suddenly took out a bottle of water and said, "I'm so thirsty. Let me have a drink."

Several people couldn't help but look back at him, and saw him open a military water bottle and take a big gulp of water. However, before everyone took two steps, the water in his mouth sprayed out.

As the water came out of his mouth, it condensed and did not disperse. While turning in the air, it condensed into a dragon-shaped water wave. After another turn, it had grown into a huge dragon-shaped wave that rushed down towards the five people.

Several people were stunned for a moment, and then they all reacted immediately.

Among them, the one walking at the end was one that Pei Ju felt had very good skills. He immediately bent down and rushed over. When he bent down and rushed out, he was like a monkey, fast, agile, and decisive.

The other two had drawn their guns, one shot at Shui Lang, and the other pointed his gun at the 'shoemaker' inside.

The shots were fired almost simultaneously.

However, the waves did not dissipate, and several bullets that passed through the waves seemed to have hit deep water.

The special forces soldier who rushed out to rush to the "shoemaker" was hit by a wave of water from above.

At this moment, he felt that his entire consciousness was shocked, and there was even a dragon roar filling his head, and his body, which had originally rushed out, also slowed down.

Many spells can directly impact the consciousness, which is why no matter what kind of spell it is, it is extremely terrifying.

There is a saying in the supernatural world that only magical abilities can fight against magical abilities, and only magical abilities can fight against weird abilities.

Then he found himself surrounded by water, his whole body suddenly became lighter, and then he felt himself floating.

The other four people were two special forces soldiers and two high school students.

The other two special forces members were hit by the water jets before they had even finished firing their guns. In just a moment, their consciousness was disrupted, and then they were wrapped in bubbles and floated up.

When Pei Ju saw him spit out water waves and the water waves turned into a dragon-like wave, he knew that he could not escape.

So he immediately stood up the wooden stick and concentrated his mind.

In that temple, I followed Uncle San and witnessed him killing many monsters, but he himself never killed one.

It was not until later that he obtained his third uncle's "Ghost Killing Sword Technique". Although he did not practice it for a long time, he knew how to do it.

In fact, he had been practicing sword skills according to the method in the book since he started practicing. However, before he obtained the sword manual, his sword skills training seemed to be confused and he didn't know where the goal was. After getting the sword manual, he felt as if the fog had been cleared and he saw the way forward.

That's because the contents of the sword manual have entered his consciousness, or have been imprinted into his spirituality.

This is why only in the spiritual field can one obtain true inheritance.

What you practice outside will always be just the basics and superficial knowledge.
