Chapter 242 — One More Time
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 4
Shen Mu roared, sealed the sword wounds on his body, and with a howl charged at the Village Chief, once more performing Sword Treads Mountains and Rivers. The next moment another figure flew out, smashing into Old Man Huo's house with a clatter.
The wall around Shen Mu was still a landscape painting.
Shen Mu was stunned. He slid down from the wall, smeared some dragon saliva on his wounds, applied the medicine, and then pondered bitterly, continuing to improve Sword Treads Mountains and Rivers. After a long while he rose again and charged at the Village Chief: "One more time!"
Crash.
Upon the wall of the blacksmith's forge appeared the imprint of a human figure, and around the imprint a landscape — utterly different from the patterns on the other walls.
Each time the Village Chief struck, the landscape was different.
In the blacksmith's forge, the Silent Craftsman poked his head out, looked at Shen Mu, and split his face in a silent grin.
Shen Mu, his face black, smeared on wound medicine and went on racking his brains, clearing away the flaws in his moves one by one, improving the sword forms.
"One more time!"
A figure flew back through towering mountains and rivers, and hung upon the deaf old man's wall.
