The business done by the Silver Mountain Mercenary Group is roughly divided into two kinds, the first is to go to the nearest beast punishment forest in Beast Mountain Town to hunt monsters, and obtain the fur, claws, and magic crystals on the monsters. and then sell it. The second is to accept a quest from the Mercenary Guild and get a reward for completing it.

On this day, the Silver Mountain Mercenary Regiment received an escort mission from the Mercenary Guild to safely escort a caravan that had come to trade in Beast Mountain Town to Iron Horn City. After obtaining the certificate of completion of the mission, Qin San, the great fighter who led the team in this mission, asked the members of the team to purchase some materials in the city, and then returned directly to Beast Mountain Town without stopping.

The way back was easy.

But just when he was halfway through the journey, the mercenary who was at the front of the team and was responsible for exploring the path hurriedly ran to Qin San and reported: "Third brother, there is a person lying in the middle of the road in front, bleeding a lot, I don't know if he is dead or alive. ”

Qin San frowned when he heard this, and said secretly in his heart, "Could it be that you have met a bandit?" ”

"Let's go! Check it out! As soon as the words fell, Qin San turned over and dismounted, and came to the front of the team with the mercenaries who came to report.

Sure enough, in the middle of the road not far away, a man fell face down in a pool of blood, not knowing whether he was dead or alive.

Qin San habitually looked around first, and suddenly became puzzled, there was no trace of a fight around, and there were only two clear ruts on the road, not like the scene after the bandits appeared.

Let's go over and have a look.

Qin San took two quick steps to the injured man and turned him over. When I looked closely, the injured man turned out to be a handsome young man. And the location of the injury is in the abdomen of the palace. Qin San frowned, and immediately stretched out two fingers and pressed them on the young man's neck, feeling a slight tremor from the fingertips, the serious expression on Qin San's face was only then soothed, but fortunately, the young man still had a breath.

"Go get some wine and knife medicine." Qin San turned his head and shouted at the mercenary behind him.

After the mercenaries fetched the things, Qin San used spirits and powdered knife wound medicine to treat the young man's wounds briefly, and then placed him in the carriage containing the supplies.

After everything was arranged, Qin San shouted towards the team, "Brothers, speed up your march and try to get back to the town before it gets dark!" ”

When Lin Xun woke up, he found himself lying on a large soft bed, and the air was filled with a strong smell of herbs, he looked around in confusion, and subconsciously wanted to sit up.

"Ahh

A cry of pain.

Just as he was about to sit up with his hands propped up, a tearing pain suddenly came from his abdomen, and the sudden pain made Lin Xun suddenly gasp.

"! What the hell is going on?! Lin Xun lifted the quilt in a bit of a panic, and what caught his eye was that he **** his upper body, but there were layers of white bandages wrapped around his waist.

The situation in front of him was obvious, he was injured, but it seemed that the wound had been taken care of.

But...... Where is this? Hospitals?

In desperation, Lin Xun could only endure the pain and let his thoughts go back little by little......

******

Lin Xun had never met his parents, and for as long as he could remember, he had lived with a dirty and strange old man every day. And blame the old man for letting Lin Xun call him master.

Lin Xun remembered that since he was six years old, he was dragged out of bed by the strange old man every morning before dawn, and then he only did one thing in the whole day, practicing martial arts!

In short, it was the blame that the old man asked him to do something, and if he didn't do it well, he would be beaten up, so he practiced in a daze, and it wasn't until Lin Xun was twelve years old that the blame old man told him something.

The strange old man's surname is Hu, and he is the only heir of the Hu family's knife technique in the world. Moreover, the moves that Lin Xun practiced every day before he was twelve years old were actually just for the sake of playing basic skills. What he really wanted to teach Lin Xun was a knife technique called "Quick Knife".

As the name suggests, the strongest thing about this knife technique is that it is fast! Extremely fast! It's so fast that the enemy is defenseless!

It sounds like it's very simple, but when it comes to really practicing, only Lin Xun himself can understand how much knowledge there is. Indeed, if you want to swing a knife quickly, this is very simple. But if you want every knife to be fast, the knife is fast! Fast knife return! It's fast! This requires not only strong physical strength, but also eyesight, reflexes, and complete control of every joint and muscle in the body to achieve the effect of "knife fast".

It wasn't until Lin Xun was twenty-two years old that the strange old man finally nodded, indicating that Lin Xun had reached the height he expected, and at this time, Lin Xun's knife was already as fast as it was.

When Lin Xun and the strange old man were eating that day, a fly flew over, Lin Xun went from finding the fly to putting down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand and picking up the knife on the table, pulling out the knife, waving the knife, and putting the knife back into the sheath, the whole action was done in one go. It wasn't until he picked up the chopsticks again that the fly, which had been cut in two, fell to the ground from less than a meter in the air.

And the strange old man watching from the sidelines also showed a look of relief in his eyes for the first time in history.

But not long after, the strange old man suddenly disappeared, leaving only a note for Lin Xun, which read, "If I don't come back within seven days, then I should have arrived at the Hades Palace, so you can go out and make a living by yourself." Don't forget to practice knives. ”

Lin Xun has been waiting for a month, and there is not a single grain left at home, and even in the last few days, Lin Xun has filled his stomach with wild fruits. In the end, Lin Xun finally realized that the strange old man might not be able to come back.

He put all the things in the house that the strange old man had used in his life into a box, carried the box to the highest mountain nearby, dug a pit, buried the box in it, and then piled up a grave bag in the place where the box was buried, cut off a big tree with a knife, and erected a wooden tablet in front of the grave. Originally, I wanted to write something on the stele, but the old man only taught him to use a knife, but not to teach him to read, so only a smooth wooden tablet was left in front of the grave.

Lin Xun knelt in front of the grave for three days and three nights, and when the sun rose on the fourth day, he kowtowed three times in front of the grave, got up and took a knife and left. When he returned home, Lin Xun packed up a few simple clothes, packed up the dozens of yuan left by the strange old man before his death, and left the house like this.

After leaving home, Lin Xun ran around, but he didn't expect to run to the provincial capital, Lin Xun, who had never left the village, felt strange when he saw anything in the big city. But just three days later, his situation can be described as downcast. A person who doesn't even know a word, has no education, no skills, and the only thing he knows is to use a knife, and it's not the kind of knife that a chef has, it's a knife used to kill people.

But where can he use a knife in the actual modern metropolis of 21? Yes, gangsters.

It was like a joke played by God to him, Lin Xun hadn't eaten for two days, and he was walking on the street hungry alone.

Suddenly, a panicked scream in the distance attracted Lin Xun's attention, and following the sound, he saw more than a dozen young people in black vests, each holding a machete in his hand, chasing and slashing a middle-aged man in a black suit and wearing a large gold chain.

This kind of scene is obviously a conflict between the underworld and the underworld, where do ordinary people dare to care. But Lin Xun didn't say a word, drew his knife and rushed forward. It's not that he is brave and brave, but he thinks it's unfair for so many people to fight one.

So he rushed directly into the crowd, and without saying a word, he protected the middle-aged man in a black suit behind him, while resisting the knives of the dozen or so young people, and the scene was chaotic for a while. But just a minute later, more than a dozen fierce young people on the side who were originally slashing people all fell to the ground and wailed, and these people had more or less bloody knife wounds.

The middle-aged man who was protected by Lin Xun had a full view of the whole process, and his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw Lin Xun, just like seeing a baby.

Since then, the middle-aged man has taken the opportunity to keep Lin Xun by his side. After living in the city for a year, Lin Xun has completely adapted to the current life and met many new friends, although most of these friends are not good people in the eyes of ordinary people.

But in such a glamorous life, what Lin Xun likes the most is computer games. Perhaps Lin Xun has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his reaction speed is extremely fast, which makes him show a different kind of talent in the game.

Among the many computer games, Lin Xun's favorite is an online game called "League of Legends", when he is familiar with the rules of the game and the characteristics of each character, he quickly becomes a master player of this game, and it is the kind of action.

There are many characters in the game "League of Legends", but if you want to say that Lin Xun's favorite is the king of the barbarians, Tedamir, perhaps because in a strict sense, the hero of the barbarian king is the only character in the entire "League of Legends" game who uses a "knife", which makes Lin Xun feel sorry for him.

However, on a very ordinary night, Lin Xun was still playing the game intently in front of the computer, using his favorite hero, the king of the barbarians, and when he was about to break through the enemy's high ground, the computer "boomed" and exploded.

Concentrated on the game, he never expected such a situation to occur, so when the computer exploded, he didn't have time to react, and could only watch himself being swallowed up by the bursting flames.

******

Thinking of this, Lin Xun suddenly opened his eyes in horror, as if he was still immersed in the terrifying moment of the computer exploding.

It wasn't until a long time later that Lin Xun finally calmed down. But at this moment, he suddenly remembered the note left by the strange old man, and the extremely clear words in his mind, "Don't forget to practice the knife", made Lin Xun feel endless guilt in his heart at this time.

I'm sorry, master. I have failed your hopes......

But fortunately, I'm still alive, and when the injury heals, I'll continue to get up early in the morning and practice the knife! Thinking of this, Lin Xun suddenly realized that he hadn't touched a knife for a long time.

"These hands are used to wield knives, but I use them to play games, it's really stupid......" Lin Xun spread his hands out and raised them in front of his eyes, looking at his hands seriously.

"Huh? Wait a minute! ”

Lin Xun seemed to have suddenly discovered something unusual.

This!

This...... It's not my hand!!
