Chapter 173: Once Upon a Time in Maple City (13)
"Lin Yun, stop!"
Just as Lin Yun's knife tip stabbed at Yan Ling, a loud roar suddenly came from the side, making Lin Yun stop the movement in his hand.
Squinting his eyes, he saw a middle-aged man suddenly appear next to him, this middle-aged man Lin Yun recognized that this person was his teacher in the Holy Sword Martial Arts Hall, Qin Wei.
Qin Wei was not young at this time, his face also showed vicissitudes, and the sideburns of his ears also showed a trace of white.
"Teacher Qin!"
Seeing Qin Wei suddenly appear, Zhou Min ran over as if he saw a savior.
The little hand pulled the corner of Qin Wei's clothes, and Zhou Min cried and shouted: "Teacher Qin, you persuade Lin Yun, he is already crazy, completely crazy!"
Qin Wei nodded, moved his gaze to Lin Yun, who was about to attack Yan Ling, Qin Wei grabbed Lin Yun's palm and said, "Lin Yun, put down the knife first." ”
Glancing at Qin Wei, Lin Yun said in a low voice, "Why should I listen to you?"
"I'm your teacher. ”
"Teacher?" Lin Yun sneered: "What did you teach me, and you are ashamed to say that you are my teacher here?"
Taking a deep breath, Qin Wei said in a low voice: "Yes, I really didn't teach you swordsmanship, and you don't want to learn swordsmanship at all. ”
Looking at Lin Yun with solemn eyes, Qin Wei's old face was very serious, "But I asked you, what did you pick up the sword in your hand for?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Yun suddenly froze in place, Qin Wei had indeed asked him this sentence when he was in the Holy Sword Martial Arts Hall before, and not only Qin Wei had asked, but even the old man of his own family had asked the same question before teaching himself.
What the hell are you holding up the sword in your hand?
Qin Wei smiled lightly: "You are capable now, I think the teacher who taught you swordsmanship must have asked the same question, right?" I would like to know how you answered him?"
Lin Yun didn't speak, and the day he begged the old man to teach him swordsmanship suddenly appeared in his mind.
......
"I want to learn swordsmanship, I want to be stronger. ”
"Why do you suddenly want to become stronger? Do you want to seek revenge on Yan Ling?"
"If you want to seek revenge on Yan Ling, forget it. ”
"It's not!"
"And what are you for, to pick up the sword in your hand?"
"I'm not so bored to find a Maple City boy to take revenge, the reason why I want to become stronger is to protect my friends around me..."
......
Taking a deep breath, Lin Yun calmed down his mood, looked at Qin Wei, who was vicissitudes, and said in a deep voice, "I don't need to tell you how I answered him. ”
"If you don't say it, I can probably guess it. Qin Wei spread his hands and said indifferently: "Then do you see that you have kept your agreement with him now?"
Lin Yun swallowed his saliva and did not speak.
Qin Wei stretched out his hand and pointed at the bleeding hair lying on the ground behind Lin Yun.
"What are you doing with your sword, your friend is like this?"
As soon as these words came out, Lin Yun was completely stunned, looking at Qin Wei in a daze.
"What am I doing?"
Lin Yun suddenly asked himself in a muffled voice.
A sense of guilt instantly surged into Lin Yun's heart, obviously Mao Zi was still saved now, obviously Mao Zi was injured for himself, but he did not suppress the anger in his heart, and the first time was not to save him, but to kill Yan Ling.
Lin Yun suddenly felt very sorry for Mao Zi, sorry for him to block that knife for himself, what was he doing?
"Whew..."
Exhaling lightly, Lin Yun calmed down his mood, hurriedly put away the long knife, turned around and picked up Maozi, and ran towards the medical hall.
Lin Yun didn't even glance at the people around him, and even Yan Ling on the tip of the knife was at a loss at this time.
Along the way, Lin Yun looked down at Maozi, who was bleeding nonstop, and kept apologizing to him in his mouth: "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Good brother... Please don't have any problems..."
With a sense of guilt, the anger in Lin Yun's heart also dissipated a lot, if he couldn't protect his best friend, then what's the point of picking up a knife?
......
At the banquet, everyone was surprised by Lin Yun's sudden movements, and the tip of the knife was about to stab at Yan Ling, but he left suddenly.
This also made everyone think that Lin Yun knew Yan Ling's identity, and they were afraid of it, so they changed their minds.
But Zhou Min didn't think so, Zhou Min knew very well in his heart that Lin Yun had long known Yan Ling's identity, and he had already killed Yan Ling.
But what she didn't know was why, after Qin Wei said a word, Lin Yun suddenly figured out that he was not killing Yan Ling.
Zhou Min pulled Qin Wei's sleeve and asked curiously, "Teacher Qin... What did you say to Lin Yun... Why did he suddenly change his mind..."
"Heh..."Qin Wei chuckled lightly and smiled at Zhou Min, "Do you remember when you first arrived at the Holy Sword Martial Arts Hall, I asked you any questions?"
"Ah..." Zhou Min tried to remember, but because the time was too long, after all, more than ten years ago, how could he remember, and finally shook his head, saying that he didn't know.
Shaking his head helplessly, Qin Wei sighed: "What are you for, pick up the sword in your hand?
With Qin Wei's prompt, Zhou Min suddenly remembered: "My answer seems to be... In order to become a world-famous Great Swordsman..."
Zhou Min thought about it again, but still couldn't figure it out: "Usually people answer like this, what does this have to do with this matter?"
After listening to Zhou Min's answer, Qin Wei finally shook his head with a wry smile: "This may be the gap between you and Lin Yun, Lin Yun's strength back then was far below you, but now, your strength is not in the same dimension, because later, Lin Yun found the right answer." ”
Qin Wei waved his hand and taught Zhou Min: "Now you, let's do what you have to do, go and see how your husband is." ”
After speaking, Qin Wei also left the banquet without looking back, leaving Zhou Min alone and standing in place stupidly.
......
Coming back to his senses, Zhou Min hurriedly helped Yan Ling on the ground, but Yan Ling couldn't stand up alone due to the injury on her leg.
"Yan Ling... How are you... You okay. ”
Looking at Yan Ling, whose face was distorted by pain, Zhou Min was extremely concerned.
The pain in her thigh and the humiliation in her face made Yan Ling's heart rage, her fists clenched, and her eyes became extremely cold.
"Lin Yun!Lin Yun!Lin Yun!" Yan Ling frantically called Lin Yun's name three times, her eyes glared at the sky, and shouted: "If you dare to do this to me, I will definitely let you break your body into pieces!"
Pursing his lips, Zhou Min didn't know what to say at this time, so he had to help Lin Yun to walk to the room: "Let's go to the room to recuperate first..."
......
After Lin Yun bandaged Mao Zi at the doctor in the medical hall, he also brought him back to the weapon shop to recuperate.
When he returned to the weapon shop, Old Man Lin Mo had already woken up, and when he saw Mao Zi unconscious, with a tight bandage on his chest, he asked strangely, "What's wrong with this guy?"
Swallowing his saliva, Lin Yun said in a low voice: "I became like this for me..."
Slowly getting up from the quilt, the old man stretched out his hand and pointed to the kettle next to him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Hand me the water to drink first." ”
"Yes. ”
agreed, and Lin Yun poured the water in the kettle into the teacup and served it to the old man.
The old man's face looked a little pale at this time, although the doctor said that as long as the old man's body rests well, he will be fine, but he still looks very old when he is old.
After taking a sip of the water in the cup, the old man stared at Lin Yun, and immediately reached out to Lin Yun and hit a chestnut.
"Ouch!"
Lin Yuntong shouted.
"Stinky boy, I taught you swordsmanship, that's how you protect your friends?"
The old man pointed to the unconscious hair, and said with anger on his face.
Lin Yun didn't refute the old man this time, just buried his head and whispered, "I'm sorry..."
"Do you know to apologize?" the old man snorted: "When Maozi wakes up, you must apologize to him." ”
"I know..."
"Lin Yun, let me ask you. The old man looked at Lin Yun with a solemn gaze and said, "What are you for, pick up the sword in your hand?"
"Friend... Family... Everything I should protect. ”
"Did you do it?"
"I almost forgot..."Lin Yun raised his head, looked at Maozi, and said in a low voice: "Fortunately, someone reminded me, otherwise Maozi is afraid..."
"That's good..."
The old man whispered, leaned against the bed, looked at the ceiling and sighed: "You go to the cabinet and take out the black knife that I used to practice with you." ”
Although he didn't know what the old man was going to do, Lin Yun still nodded and helped the old man take out the long black knife.
The black long knife is still extremely exquisite, even after ten years, under the maintenance of a craftsman like the old man, this black long knife still looks imposing.
The old man's palm gently stroked the long knife, and the old man looked at Lin Yun: "This knife is the best knife I have built in my life, it has followed me for so many years, I am also old, no matter how powerful a person is, he can't withstand the torture of the years..."
The old man looked up at the ceiling, slowly closed his eyes, and remembered.
Then, the old man sighed and looked at Lin Yun: "This knife is a spirit knife and has human nature. ”
"Possess human nature?" Lin Yun was taken aback: "The knife can also have human nature?"
"You don't believe me?"
Lin Yun shook his head: "Of course I don't believe it, how can a knife be human, a knife is made by people, how can people create human nature empty-handed?"
"Hehe, that can only mean that you have too little knowledge. The old man laughed.
Lin Yun still didn't believe it, and quipped: "Then your old man will let me increase my knowledge, and let me listen to this knife say a few words?"
"Believe it or not, I'm old and might die one day, so I've decided to pass this knife on to you. ”
After speaking, the old man handed the black long knife to Lin Yun and said with a smile: "Treat it well, I think this knife will definitely like you very much." ”
As a result, Lin Yun, who had a long knife, immediately handed it back to the old man in the next second: "What nonsense are you talking about, don't say such unlucky words, I feel that the old man should live a long life." ”
Shaking his head helplessly, the old man smiled and said, "You kid has also learned to pat my ass?"
"This is not sycophancy, if you don't live to be 100 years old, you will really lose my Lin family. ”
"Hahaha, you stinky boy. ”
