Chapter 265: Pretending to be calm
Xie Zijin hurriedly asked, "What flaw?" Not even someone as demanding as my master has ever mentioned it! β
Shen Huaijin was stunned for a moment, "What are you asking for?" β
Xie Zijin raised his neck proudly, "Naturally, when the master praises him as a proud protΓ©gΓ© in the future, you can pour some cold water on him!" β
Shen Huaijin: "......"
"Who is your master? And how did you meet him? Shen Huaijin decided to change the topic.
Xie Zijin said, "It's a loose cultivator, and I don't know which sect it comes from, but the knife technique is really good, and it is very labor-saving to chop wood." β
Shen Huaijin was slightly stunned, "Didn't he tell you about himself?" β
Xie Zijin thought of the person who was always expressionless, and rolled his eyes in his heart, "The master doesn't even say much, let alone tell me about his past." Although it wasn't for him, I would have died in the wilderness, but ...... He treats me, but he doesn't care. β
Shen Huaijin saw that her expression was slightly lost, but he said in his heart, no, he just has such a personality, he just pretended not to care......
It's like a long time later, he learned from Xie Zijin that Blade Feihua was full of praise for him, and even said that he looked like a person sent by the gods.
In the past, Blade Feihua was stingy with even a word of praise - no, it should be that in addition to teaching, it is difficult to get a response from him with a word.
This feeling made Shen Huaijin feel like he had been reborn.
He paused for a moment and said, "Maybe your master is just a cold-faced and enthusiastic person, and ordinary people in the rivers and lakes deliberately disguise themselves as that. β
"After all, they must have a reason to wander outside, and if they get too close to someone, they will not only bring danger to this person, but also to themselves."
Xie Zijin smiled lowly, "I didn't expect that the prince would also think about others." Indeed, listen to what the prince said, and then go back and think about him...... It seems that so. Otherwise, how could he have given me such a cherished sword? β
Shen Huaijin said, "When did he leave you?" β
"I don't know, when I was very young, he left."
Xie Zijin's pupils flowed with an indescribable emotion, "It's been so long, he really hasn't come back, no one knows where he went, I was only a little over eight years old at that time, and my memories after that were interrupted here for some reason." β
Shen Huaijin said in his heart, he knew about the past.
In fact, it was precisely because Xie Zijin became the owner of the village in Tulong Village that a robbery was aimed at Xie Yinzhi, who was passing by Fuyao Mountain in Youzhou at that time, how Xie Yinzhi didn't recognize his sister, and he had to bring her back to the capital no matter what.
At that time, Xie Yinzhi only hated that he couldn't escape his heart and treat this sister.
Even after Xie Zijin saw a child from a relative of the Zhou family, he changed her identity and made her betrothed to the Zhou family in the name of it.
Although the Xie family died because of the Zhou family, the relatives of the Zhou family were not the real Zhou family after all, so Xie Yinzhi was also relieved.
But the Zhou family found out her identity for some reason, Xie Yinzhi was out of town at the time, and failed to rush back in time, Xie Zijin was humiliated and decided to go to the Zhou family to withdraw from his relatives, and he actually met the killer of the Zhou family halfway.
At that time, Lin Hanzhang arrived in time after learning the news and rescued Xie Zijin, I am afraid that the grass on Xie Zijin's grave is already several meters deep today.
Thinking of the person in his arms who finally survived, Shen Huaijin naturally cherished it very much.
He rested his chin on Xie Zijin's head, and couldn't help but hug her tighter, "Those memories will be remembered one day." β
Xie Zijin shook his head, "I always have a hunch that it must be a very bad memory, otherwise how could it disappear for no reason." I only remember that I woke up in the Dragon Slaying Village at that time, and the master was by my side, saying that he was leaving again. β
"At that time, I didn't know how many years had passed, and I thought it was my young self, but when I heard him say that he wanted to leave, I was very reluctant, so I said with him, I would not allow him to go, and if I really wanted to go, I would give me the knife."
"Normally, when the master listened to my words, he would stay for a few more days, but on that day, as if he had something urgent, he left the knife to me without saying a word."
When I reached out to pick it up, I realized that I had grown so much and asked him why I had lost my previous memories. And the master said, I won't want to know, because ...... It was a not-so-good memory. β
With that, he departed. And when he left, he never came back. Xie Zijin laughed miserably, his voice was a little choked, "If it weren't for this knife, I would have thought that the man at that time was my hallucination." β
Shen Huaijin stayed in the palace for a long time, and he never understood why Blade Feihua agreed to enter the palace to teach him knife skills.
It wasn't until he met Xie Zijin and knew such a past that he slowly pieced together the pieces in his mind and came to a conclusion.
Maybe the master is ...... is here to investigate Xie Zijin's life experience, and even more so - according to Shen Huaijin's gradually deepening understanding of him, the blade is flying, maybe he is here to avenge Xie Zijin.
Thinking of this, Shen Huaijin was a little afraid.
Fortunately, he was not Sima Heng, if he was the queen's child, Blade Feihua might have been ready to attack him from the beginning.
Xie Zijin continued, "I really want to know if he is alive now......" She paused, "I heard outsiders say that you don't learn and don't know how to do it, and your swordsmanship is even more of a mess, so when the time comes, I will teach you a few tricks, and you will also defend yourself when you encounter danger in the future." β
Shen Huaijin laughed secretly in his heart, and continued to listen to Xie Zijin's chatter, "I have said so much today, and I am tired again." β
By this time it was already dawn.
Lin Hanzhang put on his clothes, stood outside Xie Zijin's house, raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door, "Miss Xie." β
When Shen Huaijin heard this voice, he hurriedly got into the quilt, and desperately squeezed his eyebrows at Xie Zijin.
Xie Zijin had no choice but to cover him with a quilt, raised his voice and said, "Lord Lin, what's the matter?" β
"Can the prince be here?"
Xie Zijin lifted the quilt and saw that Shen Huaijin shook his head, so he had to say, "Not here." β
Lin Hanzhang hesitated, "In that case, can Lin come in and say a few words to Miss Xie." β
Xie Zijin had to put on his clothes, opened the door, and said horizontally at the door, "Lord Lin." β
Lin Hanzhang's gaze fell on her slightly red and swollen lips, and he glanced at the quilt in the room again, and finally sighed and said in a deep voice, "Lord Wang." β
Shen Huaijin reluctantly poked his head out of the quilt and said coldly, "What do you have to do, Lord Lin?" β
Xie Zijin smiled awkwardly, moved his body away, and let Lin Hanzhang walk in.
There is really an embarrassing scene in the house that is inexplicable.
