Chapter 162: Scimitars and Power

"What if I say no?" Cangtao folded his arms: "Do you think that when I was a child in the Arabella Department, I could say 'teach me a scimitar' like you, and someone would teach you a scimitar?" ”

"So what do you mean...... I'm going to please you? Please? ”

"If you are a member of the Yan family, you are a noble daughter of the Lin family, naturally you don't need it, your status is enough for others to line up to please you, please do something." Cang Tao said: "But since you said that you want to learn everything about me becoming a king, then I think the first step on my path is to learn to please others before being pleased." ”

He waited for her to protest, or angrily thought that he was deliberately making things difficult, but Lin Yu said seriously: "I understand. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You get the idea? "Cangtao doesn't know how she can stand this grievance." Maybe you don't think it's hard to please me – but in the future, you'll probably beg a lot of people. ”

He didn't learn this at first, and even when he was just expelled from the tribe, he still held on to his pride in being Prince Gossmander, and it wasn't until he was hungry and eager to eat himself that he realized that there was no point in an empty nameβ€”it only made sense to live.

For a bite to eat, for a piece of clothing to survive in winter, for a mouthful of water, for a place to live......

He learned how to smile at everyone and show his most useful side to others.

Those hard years stripped off the layers of skin on his body, but they also made him reborn and created today's Cangtao.

He didn't know what he had learned, so he could only teach Lin Yu in one way - that is, to let her go through the path he had experienced back then.

That's why he's willing to teach her.

He wanted to be able to share everything about himself with her, including his past, of course.

He wanted to open himself up to her, to prove his sincerity to her.

"You shall smile at the man you most hate; Thou shalt flatter the man whom thou shalt scorn the most; You have to be petty with the people you hate the mostβ€”for your ends. Cang Tao was afraid that she didn't understand it thoroughly enough: "At first, it was to survive, to have enough to eat, to have clothes to wear, to not be caught as a slave for fun, in order to live better, and later, in order to learn how to kill, how not to be killed, began to have enemies, ready to take revenge, and then look for people who are consistent with your own interests, people who can help you, so that you can escape punishment...... When your interests become more and more involved, and there are more and more people around you, your power will naturally become bigger and bigger - and finally, 'snap'! You become king. ”

Lin Yu said: "This is the path you have traveled all the way. ”

"Doesn't sound that hard, does it? It sounds like it's just going through it and then it's a natural result. Cangtao said: "Of course, this is inseparable from the blessing of God. ”

As soon as he mentioned "God", Lin Yu didn't want to continue the topic: "Ah, you're going to start again." ”

"Don't be disrespectful to God, Ayu." Cang Tao was dissatisfied: "God has decided that a man will be king, and no woman will ever be king." ”

"Maybe God will decide to bless me this time?"

Cangtao looked at her disapprovingly, obviously unable to appreciate her joking with her gods.

But he still tolerated this, and decided to wait for himself to go back and pray to the gods for more blessings and atonements: "Bullying the soft and fearing the hard, seeing people cooking, brazen, and treacherous in order to protect his own interests...... Ayu, can you really do it? You could have been clothed and fed, lying there comfortably and waiting for someone to serve, so why bother yourself like this? ”

"I don't have to be able to do the same as you." Lin Yu could already ignore his "bitter heart" advice, because she could guess every word he said - "Why bother? "Don't embarrass yourself" "Isn't it good to be comfortable?" ”

Since she opened this mouth, every time Cangtao was dragged forward by her, she would take three steps back in the next second to persuade her to give up.

He had many chances to drag her back, and she only had this one chance to persevere.

Once you give up, the next time Cangtao will not take it seriously.

However, such a "well-intentioned" obstruction is just the "gentles" response of the world to her change.

"If necessary, though...... I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goals. ”

Seeing her firm tone, Cangtao wanted to say something more, but he paused and changed his words: "Then I'll wait and see." ”

Anyway, Ah Yu will give up in the end, so he just has to wait, why bother to make her unhappy?

As soon as his mind moved, he arranged a new identity for her in a blink of an eye: "Before getting married, you were the maidservant I brought from Datu to serve the bride. ”

"Your guards know my face."

"Your guards know my face."

"Oh, I'll tell them that you can walk around the tribe freely and leave you alone."

Speaking of which, Lin Yu already knew that Cangtao would try to let go.

She struggled so fiercely that he was afraid of hurting her wings, so he decided to open the birdcage in his palace and let her go out and fly freely around him for a while.

Although he was reluctant and suspicious to let go, he would immediately recapture her as soon as she showed the slightest hint of withdrawal and hesitation from the outside world.

Therefore, Lin Yu boldly faced his harsh scrutiny and never flinched.

As for what kind of things she will encounter after becoming a subordinate and leaving Cangtao's side, it is impossible to say that Lin Yu is not uneasy in her heart - but she took a deep breath and still did not waver in her determination: "Okay." ”

"In order to ensure your safety," Cang Tao took out a cylinder like a fire fold from his bosom and said, "I will give you a firework, if you are in danger, launch it, I will go to you immediately." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you. ”

Despite all the incomprehension between them, she was forever grateful for the kindness that had been done to her.

Lin Yu put away the fire fold and hung his scimitar clumsily on his waist.

"I'll change the plain scabbard for you later." Cang Tao said: "Otherwise, if someone recognizes it as my scabbard, it will delay our Miss Lin's micro-service visit." ”

After Lin Yu hung up the scimitar, he used the mode that would pull out the self-defense from his waist in the future, and pulled the knife out again.

This time was different from just now, just now her eyes were only focused on the blade of the knife, but this time, her eyes flashed on the blade and Cangtao.

Cang Tao subconsciously took a step back, "Be careful! ”

He watched her movements so unfamiliar, holding the scimitar, as if standing next to the tiger wolf with his bare hands, touching their hair, and only felt a sense of horror.

"Ah Yu, don't hurt yourself!"

"If I have a cutlass now and you don't have a weapon, what will you do when I attack?"

Cang Tao could hear the challenge hidden in her voice, it was amazing, because he never thought that one day he would see the ambition in Lin Yu's eyes and those who had tried to challenge his position.

She instinctively wanted to hide her ambition with pure curiosity, but she was a little confused, perhaps because she didn't realize what the surging impulse in her heart was.

He raised an eyebrow: "You try?" ”

Lin Yu looked at him and hesitated for a moment, as if she was assessing the possibility of her missing hand and hurting him, but she was unwilling to give up this opportunity to experience actual combat, so she tentatively slashed away, and was easily flashed sideways by Cang Tao.

He pulled a dagger from his cuff.

The dagger was so small, and the scimitar in her hand was so long, Lin Yu looked at Cangtao who was close at hand, and felt her heart beating fast.

She won't kill him, she's definitely not going to kill him. But the scene in her mind still came to her mind of her slashing the scimitar in her hand into his body.

It felt like I was scared and excited.

Is it "armed with a sharp weapon, murderous self-motivated"?

Still is...... That feeling of "I can kill you if I want" is similar to the right?
