Chapter 120: Bao Ding (7)
The nameless hand and the corners of his mouth twitched inexplicably, but in order to hide this subtle movement, he quickly put the sword in his hand back into the scabbard and said coldly:
"Since it's you who I want to kill, and you don't want to kill me?"
"Isn't it good to live, if you don't kill me, I won't kill you."
"But I'm going to kill you?"
"I wanted to kill you just now, so why wait until now."
"I want to kill you, but I'm sorry, I never kill a nameless, especially a weak person like you, who doesn't deserve to die under my sword."
"You ......" Hearing this, Bao Ding really couldn't calm down, and felt that he was greatly insulted, and told him in his bones that he was not a swordsman, and he must have the dignity of a swordsman.
"He's crazy!" This time it was Qiu Yu's turn to pull Bao Ding away, but the strange thing was that Bao Ding couldn't say anything, and there seemed to be no reason to leave.
He knew that the person in front of him was very strong, stronger than he imagined, ten thousand times stronger than the few big men guarding the door in the land of the broken army, and ...... Thinking of this, my heart was inexplicably sour, what was I in front of him.
A seed to become a strong man was planted in Bao Ding's heart early, maybe it was innate, maybe it was the rules prescribed by the times, and it couldn't be grasped and seen, and now after listening to the nameless words, this seed grew wildly.
It's been a long, long time......
Bao Ding said word by word: "I want to learn the sword from you." ”
"Why should I teach you?"
"When I finish my studies, I'm worthy of a sword fight with you."
"And then kill me?"
"You can't kill me!"
"Hahahaha~" Nameless looked up to the sky and laughed, jumped off the Jianhe Bridge, Bao Ding chased after him to take a look, only to see Nameless already standing on a fishing boat, and heard Nameless say: "Want to learn swords?" Let's talk about the sword first! ”
Bao Ding looked sad and asked: I have a sword, how can I find you?
Nameless: Nameless.
Nameless, the seaside on the outskirts of Nancheng is also the place where the first swordsman of Nancheng is buried.

Chapter 12: The dignity of a swordsman
The starry sky is bright and the moon shines brightly.
On this deep night in the sky, the person who came was not Bao Ding, but Bao Ding's adoptive father Bao Chenggang.
When he was on top of the nameless place, a salty and wet sea breeze blew in front of him, and in front of him stood a drunken earthen house, a half-crushed earthen house, and the owner could not take care of his dwelling, and even the roof collapsed.
There was no light in the room, but there was a man, who sat on a dead log in front of the house, and drank a jar of wine, and when the wine was gone, his hand kept going up, and his mouth kept reaching the mouth of the altar.
"Let's go back!" Nameless didn't even look at Bao Chenggang, and said a word drunkly, but when Bao Chenggang threw over a jar of new wine, Nameless seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and with a gentle wave of his hand to catch the wine jar, he drank it in a big gulp, until he fed the wine worms in his stomach, and Nameless said, "Please go back." ”
There was only one more word "please" in the two sentences, and Bao Chenggang did not have a surprised expression, but just looked back at the abrupt earthen bag beside the tree with a crooked neck, and a tombstone was inserted on the earthen bag. There are five large characters chiseled on the tombstone.
"You're nameless." Bao Chenggang found the other end of the dead wood and sat down, "Since you have a deep grudge against him, why would you rather be his grave keeper." ”
"Who told you that I have a grudge against him?"
"Isn't it, then you don't even let Bao Ding go."
"Oh? It seems that you know the whole truth of the facts? ”
"I don't know"
"Then how do you conclude that I have a grudge against him, and you won't let Bao Ding go?"
"Resentment can't be hidden, you have these two words written on your face, and these two words are branded in your heart!"
When Bao Chenggang said a sentence fiercely, Nameless suddenly got up, smashed the wine jar, and responded: "Yes, I hate, I hate why he shows mercy every time, and I hate that I can't bear half of his moves, do you know what is the most important thing as a swordsman?" The sword, the wine, and the life in the palm of the hand...... It's not all about dignity! Even if he dies, he must die by someone else's sword, or even if he draws his sword, and I ......"
As he spoke, the ruthless Nameless suddenly seemed to be out of control, kneeling on the ground, his hand grabbed his chest, under the moonlight, he could see a cross scar on his chest, he wanted to cry very painfully, that little bit of old wound was nothing at all, even if it was the closest part to the heart, and the real pain was the loss of dignity, the dignity of a swordsman.
"Once and twice, what is he, what am I?"
"Why didn't he kill you, why couldn't you kill him?"
Obviously it was a question thrown by Nameless himself, Bao Chenggang threw it back to him, but now he replied unceremoniously: "For the peerless first, my hands are already stained with blood, and these eyes are blind because of fame, only one step away, only one head!" ”
When he suffered the first scar, Li Chengfeng's sword did not pierce Nameless's heart, and the second time it was still the same, with different scars horizontally and vertically, the similarity was that Qian Chenglang did not pull out his sword, and the weapon that caused the scar turned out to be Nameless's own, and his subordinates showed mercy twice, although Nameless did not die, and then for seventeen years, he lived outside the gate for a full seventeen years.
"The sword is merciless, people are different."
"The sword is a man's sword, and man must use a sword, what's the difference?"
"People who use swords are different." When Bao Chenggang said this, Nameless was silent, he himself wanted to have his own name, every stroke and every painting was bloody, all so ruthless, and in the end it was still "Nameless", the ruthless swordsman was burdened with too much resentment and too much ruthless indifference, and the swordsmanship would stop forever when it reached a certain level, and this could be the gap between the first and the second?
"The grievances of the previous generation are not about the next generation." Bao Chenggang's words have come to this point, there is no need to say more, and in the end he only said a word and left, leaving a nameless person, alone to spend the night when there was no wine in this wine jar.
From this point of view, time has not eliminated the "resentment" in the nameless heart, but has become deeper and deeper, like an endless abyss, and it is impossible to extricate himself when he looks at the abyss.
In seventeen years, he broke through the bottleneck of swordsmanship outside the gate, making himself stronger and more ruthless, the old man who was talented in the past is no longer there, and he can completely dominate the martial arts with his current swordsmanship and become the strongest swordsman, but he will not do this, and even misses the old man a little, so he is more determined to return to the original intention of returning to the Central Plains, and even "sees" the near future - the person who inherits the sword of glory will come after all. Maybe when that day comes, Nameless will be able to regain the dignity he once lost.
