Lin Zhennan put down his sword and wiped his sweat, feeling indescribable satisfaction and joy in his heart. This feeling was only felt when he was sixteen or seventeen years old when he followed his grandfather to learn martial arts, and watched his martial arts grow rapidly every day. And after taking over the dart game, his martial arts stagnated, and this feeling has never been felt again.

Lin Zhennan soothed his body and slowly recovered his strength; While thinking about how to improve by continuing to cultivate.

First of all, it is natural to practice the internal strength of the mind diligently, and now this internal force can also exert the kung fu of a cup of tea. This is far from satisfying the needs of actual combat.

Secondly, Lin Zhennan felt that the weight of this sword seemed to be a little too heavy. In the past, the sword move made it slow and didn't feel anything, but now that it's fast, I immediately feel that the sword is a bit heavy and cumbersome. It seems that it should be replaced with a lighter sword.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhennan immediately left the martial arts training hall, beckoned his subordinates to open the Hidden Sword Pavilion, and instructed his subordinates to take out the swords he treasured one by one for him to try.

The Lin family itself is famous for its swordsmanship, and the business of the Fuwei Dart Bureau covers ten provinces, and it is very generous. Over the years, Lin Zhennan has collected countless swords by himself and given by others, all of which are treasured in the Sword Pavilion.

These swords were as short as a foot, and as long as a man. The amount also ranges from one pound to dozens of pounds. The provenance of the sword is even more varied, from as far as the pre-Qin period to the contemporary era. Not to mention the domestic, there are also a lot of overseas. The kingdoms of Guizi, Annam, Goryeo, Wa, Daeshi, and Cheonju...... There are also many Western swords from countries such as Western Franc and English.

Lin Zhennan probably tried a few handles, and he had a general range in his heart. Let the servants put aside those that were too short, too long, and too heavy, and pick out the swords that were three or four feet long and light in the hand.

picked and picked until the two little guys who carried it were tired and out of breath, and Lin Zhennan picked two swords that he was basically satisfied with. These two swords have a peculiar style, with wide hilts and extremely slender blades like reed leaves. It is the foil of Western swords.

The sword surface of the foil is a narrow triangle, and the ultra-thick root of the sword becomes an ultra-thin tip. The root of the sword can be used to block, and it is worse in slashing, mainly based on stabbing, and the style is light and agile. The traditional swordsmanship of our country is mainly based on "splitting, stabbing, wiping, teasing, pumping, uncovering, horizontal and inverting", which pays attention to chic and elegant.

Coincidentally, there are very few slashing moves in the seventy-two ways of warding off evil spirits, and most of them are click and stab. It coincides with Western foil.

In fact, this is not a coincidence, the swordsmanship of Western foil is also fast. Among the swordsmanship moves, the speed of stabbing and clicking is the fastest. The shortest straight line between two points. The slash requires a large arc, which increases in power but decreases in speed.

Lin Zhennan probably made a few strokes in his hand, and he was still very satisfied with the sword bodies of these two Western swords, the softness and hardness were moderate, and the material was also good. The only thing that made him look down on him was the large and cumbersome gauntlet of the hilt. The handguard of the Western sword is large because of the move that is blocked with the handguard in swordsmanship. Lin Zhennan's cultivation of the sword technique to ward off evil spirits does not have this need.

The more he looked at the gauntlet of the Western sword, the more unpleasant he felt, and immediately asked his subordinates to take the sword and find the most famous blacksmith in Fuzhou City to urgently replace the hilt with a Chinese-style sword.

"What are you tossing about?" Lin Zhennan's troubles in the Hidden Sword Pavilion attracted Mrs. Lin, and when she entered the door, she saw a mess in the ground, all of which were swords that Lin Zhennan regarded as treasures in the past.

"Huh!" Lin Zhennan was in a good mood, and replied with a smile: "I was about to inform my wife that I had a breakthrough in swordsmanship in the past two days, and the original sword was a little out of my hand, so I came over to pick up two new ones." ”

"Western sword?" When Mrs. Lin saw that the sword that Lin Zhennan picked out was actually a Western sword, she couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "When did you start playing Western foil?" I don't know at all. ”

"Hehe," Lin Zhennan didn't know where to start in the face of his wife's sudden question, so he had to roughly explain: "It didn't take long to be the last one." I don't want to play Western swords, but the other swords I have at hand are not suitable, but this one is somewhat suitable. Don't we have some Uzi steel left, I'll draw the pattern. Let the blacksmiths of Quanxingzhuang tailor a few handles. By the way, Ping'er has recently practiced two-handed swordsmanship, I watched it today, and it's really quite good. See what he needs, and build him two suitable swords. ”

Speaking of her son, Mrs. Lin's attention immediately turned away, thinking that Lin Pingzhi had been practicing martial arts hard recently, and she had to make up for him.

The Western sword was replaced with a hilt, and the transformation was very fast. On the second day, Lin Zhennan got the transformed sword. He tried it, and the light and heavy sizes were not bad. So according to the style of this sword, the moves combined with the sword technique to ward off evil spirits were changed, and a sample drawing was drawn for people to use to create a new sword.

Sure enough, with this new sword, it was more appropriate for Lin Zhennan to perform the sword technique of warding off evil spirits. Not to mention anything else, the practice time before the internal strength is exhausted every day has increased by 30%.

Lin Zhennan was excited, and practicing the new evil sword technique would be more energetic. In less than four or five days, he had passed the seventy-two tricks, and even his internal strength had grown considerably.

Lin Zhennan, who realized that he had achieved great achievements, invited his wife to the practice hall and showed her his new achievements in a show-off manner.

After reading it, Mrs. Lin was silent for a long time, and muttered after being shocked: "It turns out that your Lin family's evil sword technique is really so powerful!" I thought you used to make that ......"

When Lin Zhennan heard this, he couldn't help but blush, and he didn't hide it in front of his wife: "Alas! Don't hide it from my wife, my father died early, so I had to take care of the business of the dart board early. In terms of martial arts, it is inevitably a little lacking. It was only recently that I suddenly figured out a trick, and this is where we are now. ”

"The trick? What's the trick? Mrs. Lin was a little curious, and asked casually, but immediately retracted: "Stop, stop, this is your Lin family's heirloom, don't tell me." ”

"Hehe," Lin Zhennan didn't care, "You and I are one husband and wife, what can't I know." In fact, to put it bluntly, it is worthless. It is the set of internal strength and mental methods left by my grandfather, although it is a little simpler, but after the introduction of cultivation, the power of the evil sword technique can be greatly improved. ”

"Oh, I see!" Mrs. Lin suddenly realized, "It turns out that this is your family's heirloom secret, and it's not a big deal." I don't understand, why do my father and brother keep thinking about it? ”

"Your father and brother always remember the secret of the sword technique to ward off evil spirits?" Lin Zhennan was taken aback, it was the first time he had heard about it.

"Well, they didn't say it explicitly, but every time I went back they asked me a lot of questions. I replied to them every time, we don't know if my grandfather Yuantu Gong has any secrets, but I know Lin Zhennan's martial arts well, and there is absolutely no secret. Mrs. Lin did not hide it from her husband, and told the situation 1510.

"This is strange, the Wang family is a sword, our Lin family is a sword, and the two families are Qin and Jin's good, why did your father and brother inquire about the secret of the evil sword technique?" Lin Zhennan was surprised and a little puzzled.

"I don't know, I asked them, and they didn't say." Mrs. Lin was also speechless, "It seems that my grandfather is famous for his prestige, and no one can stop him from fighting off evil swordsmanship, so there are always people in the rivers and lakes who covet it." Plus your strength...... Hey! ”

When Mrs. Lin said this, she picked Lin Zhennan with her eyes, and the unfinished words were self-evident.

"What's wrong with my strength?!" Lin Zhennan couldn't help blushing at his wife's contempt, and strongly defended: "You also saw just now, with my current swordsmanship, how many people in the rivers and lakes can stop it?" ”

"Your current swordsmanship is okay," Mrs. Lin hit the nail on the head, "But your previous swordsmanship, hehe, looks like a lot of flowers, and you can bluff people, but in fact it's not as powerful as my golden sword!" ”

Lin Zhennan was speechless, so he had to stop talking. Seeing this, Mrs. Lin could only say comfort.

"Okay, okay, such an adult is still like a child. You yourself said that going to the rivers and lakes depends on friendship, and managing the dart game depends on relationships, so what does it matter if your martial arts are good or not? ”

"Originally, I thought the same way," Lin Zhennan was not really angry, but in the face of his wife's ridicule, he couldn't get over his face, he held his wife's Rouyi and expressed his worries.

"But I've been looking back on the past lately, and I've found that although our game is getting bigger and bigger, it's also getting more and more dangerous. There are few good players in the dart game from top to bottom, but it has to account for the business of ten provinces. My grandfather has been dead for a long time, and his prestige has faded into oblivion. With my strength to support such a big scene, it is really a bit dangerous. In addition, you told me today that there are people on the rivers and lakes who have the idea of warding off evil spirits, which makes me feel even more dangerous, and I can't help but tremble. ”

"The soldiers are coming, and the water is coming! What are you afraid of? Mrs. Lin is also a heroine among women, with a heroic personality, and she disagreed with Lin Zhennan's worries: "The dart game should be supplemented with some good hands, we have silver, and if we scatter it out, there will naturally be masters coming to the door." And your and Ping'er's strength has soared, and there is nothing to worry about! ”

"Madame is very right. But I'm a little worried. When Lin Zhennan said this, Mrs. Lin said this, and his heart was relieved a lot. At this time, he remembered something and asked casually: "By the way, madam, didn't you go to the head of the Nanhai faction to talk about Ping'er, how is it?" ”

"Don't you say I almost forgot, what is going on with this woman. I'll go to her tomorrow and ask about the situation, and even if the Nanhai faction has no eyes, they should at least give an answer. "Mrs. Lin is an anxious person, and as soon as she is reminded, she can't wait to rush to the other party's house immediately.
