Mysteries of the Earthsea

Chapter 1034 Neighbor

In the dense forest, the air is filled with a pungent smell of blood. "Pu Chi Pu Chi." The sound of flesh and blood being cut continued.

Gao Zhiming, who was out of breath, raised the bloody dagger, gritted his teeth and stabbed in front of him. The already cold blood splashed onto his immature face.

He is very tired now, and his arms are very sore from the high-intensity swing of the knife.

But after Gao Zhiming glanced at Anna next to him, he didn't complain, and continued to stab the calf hanging from a branch in front of him.

This is not easy, the cowhide is very tough, the dead beef is very stiff, coupled with the tenacity of the beef tendon, Gao Zhiming has to work hard every time he stabs it.

"Don't use brute force, try to strike between two muscle groups with the knife edge, remember the feeling of cutting flesh and blood with the knife edge, you must get familiar with it as soon as possible."

"Like the little gangsters before, those who are stupid enough to cut their necks in front of you are always a minority."

"En!" Gao Zhiming nodded, continuing to sweat hard in the forest.

Anna was under the big tree beside her, silently looking at Gao Zhiming in the distance.

Although he didn't express it in front of his husband, it has to be said that compared with reading, he is still more talented in these things.

After only such a short period of practice, he already has preliminary combat effectiveness. Now if he makes a move, there is a high probability of killing an adult with a sneak attack.

The most important thing is that Gao Zhiming has seen blood, he can digest the fear of killing people.

In the matter of killing the same kind, it is completely different to have touched or not.

Just as Anna was thinking about what kind of training she was going to give him next, a voice suddenly came from the nearby woods.

Anna quickly turned around, and saw an old man with a sunburned face walking in from among the leaves carrying a fishing rod.

The old man was instantly attracted by the short blade wielded by Gao Zhiming and the bloody cow carcass.

Seeing the old white man's eyes widen in shock, Anna flicked her sleeves lightly, and the throwing knife that the mask gave Gao Zhiming appeared in her hand.

This is a familiar face, from the town, Anna met when she moved here.

The other party didn't feel the killing intent on Anna at all, but his eyes lit up, and he walked over and surrounded Gao Zhiming in amazement. "Uh Chinese kung fu? Nice!"

After finishing speaking, he took out his mobile phone, searched for a Hong Kong Shaw Brothers martial arts video in the 1980s, and asked Anna enthusiastically.

It seemed that the old man thought that Gao Zhiming was practicing some legendary kung fu and was very interested in it.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to go elsewhere, Anna breathed a sigh of relief, put her weapon back, and began to speak according to the other party's words.

Through the conversation, I learned that the old man's name was Mark Luke, and he was barely a neighbor.

He used to be a chef. After retirement, his pastime besides fishing is watching movies, which also includes martial arts movies, so he is very curious about this aspect.

"So is everything in the movie true? How did that happen?"

"Is this kid practicing Shaolin? If there are any taboos in oriental culture, you can choose not to answer."

Anna tried to fool the other party away with a few words, but Mark was extraordinarily enthusiastic. It's like a fan meets an idol, talking non-stop.

In the end, Mark even kindly invited Anna to his house as a guest.

In order not to appear too abnormal, Anna agreed. After all, it is impossible to stay in a place without contact with the outside world.

A good relationship with neighbors can also better integrate into this environment.

Mark's house is not far away, just a few hundred meters away from Anna's house. There was no one in the house except an old lady.

The completely wooden building structure is very warmly arranged, and there are not many electrical appliances except for a TV inside.

When he got home, Mark didn't see anything, and took out CDs with various martial arts stars and showed them to Anna excitedly.

It can be seen that Mark's personality is very cheerful, even a little childish, even though he is 73 this year.

"Sorry, are you feeling impatient? Hehe, that's his personality, he's been like this all his life." The kind old lady who brought the steaming baked apple pie to the table said with a smile.

She took off the thick gloves used for heat insulation, and said to her husband: "Mark, stop talking, Miss Anna came to our house for the first day, please restrain yourself, they are still children, our grandson is probably older. "

Everyone went to the table and enjoyed the food made by the old lady. The food was very rich, including roast chicken, pasta with cut sausage, fragrant apple pie, mushroom soup, and a glass of home-made wine.

At the dinner table, Mark tried to say something more, but felt his wife Mary step on the table lightly.

Somewhat puzzled, he followed his wife's line of sight and found that the girl had no left hand, and she was disabled.

His pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart became heavy. He had seen this kind of injury in movies.

"My God, is she... so young, did they come all the way from Asia because they got kicked out?"

Thinking of this, Mark immediately connected the less enthusiastic attitude between Anna and Gao Zhiming.

"I see, damn it, I wish I had found out sooner, every time I talk to her I'm rubbing salt in their wounds."

As soon as his chatter was closed, the atmosphere of the lunch seemed a little dull.

"Mr. Mark, can you keep the matter of me and my brother in the forest a secret for the time being?"

"Of course, of course." Mark said and glanced at his own movie discs, his face flushed with confidence. "I think I know a lot about some things in Eastern culture."

"Don't worry, here, your master will not come to disturb you, is that how you pronounce it?"

"Teacher?" Anna frowned slightly, she didn't know what the old man in front of her said. It seems, however, that the problem was solved in a peculiar way.

For the love of children, Mary turned her tender eyes to Gao Zhiming who was devouring. "Son, do you like to watch TV? You can watch while you eat. You don't have to be cautious. My granddaughter likes it when she comes home from summer vacation."

Gao Zhiming, a primary school dropout, couldn't understand what the other party was talking about, so he could only look at Anna for help.

But at this time Anna ignored him. She was chatting with Mark, learning about the short history of this lakeside town, and the names of everyone in the town.

"Oh~ child, there's no need to be so cautious, it's just like your own home."

The TV was turned on, and Mary took the reading glasses and pressed the remote control, wanting to jump to the animation channel for Gao Zhiming.

Just as the switch was being made, Anna, who was eating noodles with her hair up, glanced at the screen inadvertently.
