"The light of dawn dispels the night in the sky and illuminates my heart..." The melodious singing sounds came from the girl's mouth and echoed in the woods. The slightly sonorous and powerful tone was added to the girl's tenderness after the girl sang it, but it also made people hear from the song that the girl has an extremely firm and brave heart!

Although Tolia's granddaughter as the village chief still needs to go to a wide field or orchard in the woods to help with work every day, and in order to realize his ideals, Tolia also takes out some work to practice sword skills after finishing his own work every day.

Especially after accepting the "secret book" given to her by Sui Yu, the girl even practiced using the sword posture recorded in the secret book as soon as she had time, so the girl lived a very fulfilling life every day.

The secret book sent by Sui Yu is not profound, and there are only a few words in the whole book. Even if Tolia cannot understand the square words on the secret book, it will not affect her practicing the sword skills, because each page of this book is drawn with an exquisite human figure in various postures (don't think wrongly). Moreover, when quickly turning the pages, the human figure in the book is like coming back to life, demonstrating several sword skills for Tolia over and over again.

Because it is easy to understand, Tolia learned very quickly. In just one day, Tolia could use sword skills completely according to the movements recorded in the book. But then, even though Tolia was working hard every day, she always felt that something was missing. Moreover, these sword skills that should be very powerful in theory do not seem to have much power.

In this regard, Tolia did not suspect that Sui Yu used fake sword skills to deceive her, because one of the sword skills Tolia had seen Sui Yu use with his own eyes (Sui Yu once rescued Tolia but was attacked by an archer. The sword skills used by the arrows that rushed to fly and gallop during the sprint were one of the tricks in the record. Of course, because he couldn't understand Chinese, Tolia did not know that the name of the move was called sweeping).

However, although she had seen Sui Yu use sweeps to fly the arrows shot by the enemy, Tolia always felt that this move was very slow and the attack power did not seem very strong. Even if Tolia tried hard to follow the movements recorded in the book, the sword skills she used were still at the same level. It seemed that she had reached a bottleneck when she exercised this set of sword skills left by Sui Yu.

As time went on, Sui Yu, who said he would be back soon, disappeared, especially when Tolia heard the news that a shocking murder occurred in Bryce Town, and the perpetrator was a young man with black hair and black eyes, Tolia was frustrated and thought that Sui Yu might not be able to come to her because of a murder.

Fortunately, Tolia was self-aware. Although she felt regretful that Sui Yu did not come to find her, she did not resent or anything. She was originally begging Sui Yu to become a disciple, but if they disagree, they would not agree. This is their freedom.

So Tolia's life returned to the past. The only difference was that she had clear sword skills every day for her to exercise. At the same time, every day Tolia would go to the place where the sword was inserted in the stone to try to pull out the sword.

However, even though Tolia worked hard to exercise every day, the sword was inserted there without moving, and even the most powerful adults in the village could not pull it out.

At this time, some people in the village had already speculated that the sword might be a prank left by Sui Yu when he left, or they wanted to use this unpulled sword to inspire everyone to grow.

However, no matter Sui Yu's intention, the sword inserted in the stone became the biggest secret of Jim Village. Even the villagers who joined other villages in Jim Village because their village was destroyed by those slave-captured people did not know this secret.

But it is difficult to keep the secret, especially when there are many people who know this secret...

At this time, while humming a song, Tolia walked along the mountain road towards Jim Village, subconsciously turned her head to look into the direction of Bryce Town, hoping to see the figure that she wanted to see in her dreams from the end of the path. Even though she felt a little uneasy because she did not complete Sui Yu's instructions, she still hoped to become a disciple of Sui Yu and gain the strength to protect everyone.

Obviously, at the end of the path, Tolia saw nothing.

However, when she turned around, she suddenly found a man wearing rope armor holding a long sword and standing not far behind her!

"Who are you?!" Tolia was shocked and held the sword in her hand tightly (the weapon that had to be self-captured slave group) in a defensive position.

Seeing Tolia so vigilant, the man who blocked Tolia's way showed an ugly smile and replied in a rough voice: "It doesn't matter who I am! Little girl, please take me to find the sword that no one can pick up!"

"How do you know the secret of the sword in the stone?!" Tolia was shocked, and at the same time, many thoughts arose in her mind. One of them was that this person was sent by Sui Yu to retrieve the sword he placed here.

But the burly man's next words denied Tolia's guess: "It turns out to be called a sword in stone! Could it be a sword inserted into a stone? From this point of view, this sword may not be a good thing. It turns out that ordinary people cannot pull it out because it is inserted into a stone!"

Seeing the burly man's disappointed expression, Tolia felt relieved. It seemed that because she accidentally let her mouth go, the guy who was obviously paying attention to the sword in the stone had already lost interest in the sword.

However, just as Tolia relaxed slightly and tried to quietly bypass the burly man, she did not expect that the burly man stretched out his thick arm to block Tolia's way and said to her: "No matter what, take me there first! Since the command of the leader who has violated the leader's orders, he has to do some benefits! Even if it is really an ordinary sword, I will admit it!"

Without saying a word, Tolia lowered her head and skillfully penetrated the man's outstretched arm and ran away!

Although Tolia has practiced sword skills for a long time and has even had practical experience in theory, Tolia instinctively felt that the strength of her and this mysterious man was very different. If she fought with her, she would probably have no chance of winning.

"Want to run?" The burly man looked thick and might not be fast, but he seemed to have expected Tolia to move and grabbed Tolia's collar as if he raised his hand.

However, Tolia was not easily caught. The moment the man grabbed her collar, the sword light flashed, and the man had to let go of his hand because Tolia actually launched an attack with the sword. If he continued to hold on, his hand would probably be cut off by Tolia!

"Interesting! You seem to have a good foundation in using the sword posture, and your physical fitness is also very good. You should have completed the Black Iron Blood Stage and officially entered the level of the Bronze Body. However, if you have not entered the Silver Stage, you are like a harmless child in front of me!"

The man seemed to want to say something, and at this moment a sinister voice suddenly sounded from the void behind Tolia: "Boss, what are you talking about to this village girl? Just grab her and force her to say where the sword is inserted?"

The space fluctuated, as if walking out of the void, a man wearing leather armor and a masked black scarf appeared and blocked Tolia's escape from the other direction.

"Oh no! He is a thief profession!" Tolia's heart sank. Although he knew from the passing bard that the thief profession focused on secrets and was not strong enough, Tolia felt the threat from this thief that was no less than the burly and strong man on the other side!

"But..." After removing the invisibility operation, the thief man seemed to look at Tolia and chuckled and made suggestions to the burly man: "This little girl seems very delicious. Do you want me to use the gentlest way to conquer her body and mind, and then let her lead us to find the sword obediently?!"

"Damn it!" He could easily guess what the so-called gentlest method was in the thief's mouth. Tolia cursed in his heart and waved his sword to slash at the thief's man. However, due to the huge gap in agility between the two sides, Tolia's offensive was easily dodged by the thief's man. Even in the battle, the abominable thief's man stretched out his hand from time to time to touch Tolia's pretty face!

Tolia became more and more desperate as she had completely realized how huge the gap in strength between the two sides was. At this moment, Tolia's eyes flashed, and a big hand had already grasped his arm, and then gently twisted it, Tolia's right hand was twisted behind her and could not move - the burly man took action!

Just as the burly man said, Tolia was really like a harmless child in front of them, and had no power to fight back!

The burly man took off the long sword from Tolia's hand and twisted Tolia's struggling left hand together. The thief man who had just teased Tolia for a long time took out the rope and skillfully tied Tolia.

"Okay! The game ends here! If you don't want to be too painful, tell me the location of the sword!"

After the burly man finished speaking, the thief added: "If you want me to see, just leave it to me directly. You can definitely ask the secret in one hour!"

"It takes an hour so long? I think you'll be enough for five minutes!" The burly man despised the thief man and waved to the thief man repeatedly: "Go and go! Stay there, you just want to have fun once, don't think I don't know! We don't have much time, otherwise our brothers will not be able to hold back when we pursue it!"

"yes……"

After dealing with the thief man, the burly and strong man tied Tolia a rope to a big tree and took out a dagger to put it on Tolia's neck and said viciously: "Little girl, be honest and just tell me, otherwise I wouldn't mind cutting you into a skeleton with one piece of meat! Perhaps, starting with your fingers is a good note, what do you think?"

"Kill me! I won't tell this secret!" The sword in the stone was not only a gift from Sui Yu to Jim Village, but also a trial for her. How could Tolia give it to these guys who were not good people at first sight?! So at this time Tolia's eyes were full of determination and stubbornness, and even her strong desire to die moved the two mercenaries who were accustomed to life and death.

He gently patted the burly and strong man's shoulder, and the thief man sighed and said, "Forget it, your threat of this level is useless to her. If she hadn't understood how to commit suicide in this situation, she would have died in front of you long ago! Speaking of which, this little girl is also a genius. With the strong desire to die just now, it probably won't take long before this little girl can inspire the power of will and gain silver dignity!"

"Silver dignity?" The burly man chuckled and shook his head and said, "Indeed, surpassing the fear of death is indeed a shortcut to obtaining silver dignity! But I still have a way to force him to tell the secret!"

"What's the solution?"

When she heard the thief man ask, the burly man replied: "It's very simple! Go to the nearby village to catch some children or young people, and then as long as she refuses to answer once, we will kill one person, and see how many of her friends she can watch can be killed by us!"

Tolia roared at the burly man with a wide eyes and a look of grief and anger: "Despicable! You devil! You are more hateful than a devil!"

"Thank you for the praise!" The burly man gave a very awkward gentlemanly gift to Tolia and waved his hand to the thief man and said, "Come with me and help me catch a few more young people. Soon this stubborn little girl will tell the secret she knows! Unless she has the heart to see that everyone in this village dies in front of her! Even if the village in the deep mountains and forests disappears, no one will care!"

The burly man in his words was full of murderous aura, and Tolia had no doubt that these guys could do anything to destroy a village in order to obtain an optional secret!

But her inner persistence made Tolia grit her teeth and not want to compromise because she was worried that even if she compromised now, the village would still not be able to be kept in order to cover up the bad things they did (these two guys would definitely kill people to silence them)!

These two professions gave Tolia a strong sense of crisis. Even if the village had formed a militia and were equipped with weapons from the slave hunting regiment (Sui Yu only picked up the explosion props through the system and was completely dismissive of those weapons and equipment), he would definitely not be able to stop the killing of these two professions!

Thinking of this, Tolia believes that she must find a way to save the Jim Village crisis at this time! Of course, we must first start with how to get rid of the predicament in front of us...

Fortunately, recently, many children hope to learn swordsmanship from the swordsmen in her village, Tolia carried a knife with her to cut the wooden sword. The knife was inserted into the belt on the back of her waist. At this time, her hands were tied behind her back to get the knife.

Soon, with the dagger in hand, Tolia quickly cut the rope that bound him with a dagger, and then planned to run towards the village in hopes of warning everyone.

After just two steps, Tolia stopped because she suddenly thought that if she ran along this road, the first thing she encountered would be those two professionals, and there was also a thief who was good at hiding. At that time, she might just crash into the arms of the thief man invisible, and finally she would not be able to warn her and fall into the clutches again!

"Then, I can only bet!"

After thinking it through, Tolia left the path and entered the woods, and the direction of her advance was where the sword in the stone was located.
Chapter completed!
