Chapter 11, The Past

Death may not be terrible, but when you wait for death to come, but it is delayed, it is inevitable that a trace of fear will slowly rise in your heart. Now Lin Chong feels like this, obviously he has closed his eyes and waited for death, but he can't feel the pain caused by death, the right hand holding the sword has involuntarily trembled, if it wasn't for his dead support, maybe the sword would have fallen long ago.

The sky was now clear, and it could be said that the soft sunlight was shining on the island, spreading over the sea, covering the whole world with a golden sheen, and there was no sound except the gentle breeze around at this time, everything was so peaceful.

Lin Chong could feel that his heartbeat was constantly accelerating, but fear made him dare not open his eyes to see everything in front of him, and his whole person trembled slightly. After a while, Lin Chong began to gasp a little, cold sweat began to break out on his forehead, and his face involuntarily turned a little pale, but there was still a deathly silence around him.

Finally, I don't know how long it took, there was finally a voice in front of Lin Chong: "Huh?" Maybe it was this sound that made Lin Chong's tense nerves ease in an instant, and Lin Chong, who had been relieved, was very embarrassed at the moment, lowered his head, opened his mouth, panted, and supported his hands on the ground, and only raised his head to look forward after a while.

The situation in front of him made Lin Chong exclaim, he didn't expect that there was a person standing in front of Shamoke, and this person's back made Lin Chong feel very familiar, but he always felt that it was impossible. At this time, Shamoke looked at the man in front of him as if he was looking at his old friend for many years: "Butcher, I haven't seen you for many years, I can't imagine that you are still alive." The person in front of him seemed to be remembering something, and instead of answering, he lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking. Shamoko was not in a hurry, just quietly waiting for his answer.

The wind was still blowing, and the butcher's gray hair was scattered, with the wind.

He laughed, looked at Shamoko, and said, "Shamoko, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I never thought that we would meet in this situation. This voice was too familiar to Lin Chong, and the decades of the situation on Mochizuki Peak came to Lin Chong's mind at this moment, from the scene of his first meeting with the butcher to the butcher teaching him swordsmanship, and then to the butcher taking him down the mountain to practice, all of these things were reproduced in Lin Chong's mind one by one at this moment. Just, why is he a butcher!

Lin Zhong deeply remembered this title, the strong man of the same era as his father Lin Shan in the ancient sword, Yuan Ji, and Emperor Qin and Lin Shan were called the three unique ancient swords. Because of his aggressiveness, he didn't know how many killings he had committed when he was young, so he got the nickname of the butcher, and he didn't repent, and he actually committed such a heinous crime as slaughtering a city. In the end, he was expelled from the division by his master, the head of the sect at that time, Bai Mei, but because of the resentment in his heart, this guy actually killed the ancient sword alone after a hundred years, because the head of the house at that time, that is, Lin Chong's father was fighting with the Kraken with his disciples on Mochizuki Peak at that time, and it was too late to defend, plus the masters in the door were also on Mochizuki Peak at that time, I didn't expect to let this butcher kill the Feilai Peak like this, if it wasn't for Bai Mei desperately resisting, maybe even Feilai Peak would be over. And then, it was the well-known Lin Shan and others who died in the battle of Mochizuki Peak, the kraken had no strength to invade Jiangnan for hundreds of years, and the butcher was also nowhere to be seen after that, but according to the disciples of Feilai Peak who survived at that time, the butcher Yuan Ji committed suicide, but the body was not found, and it can only be said.

Lin Chong's face was full of confusion at the moment, and his eyes were full of disbelief, he couldn't imagine that the person who taught him swordsmanship, who treated him like a master and a father, was actually a sinner of the ancient sword. At this time, Lin Zhong didn't know how to describe his mood.

Yuan Ji seemed to have known Lin Chong's reaction when he knew who he was, sighed deeply, looked at Shamoke, as if he was resigned to his fate, and his tone was so lonely, and said: "Shamoke, I don't want to fight you, but if you insist, I don't mind, this little guy was taught by me after all." Shamoko knew who he was referring to, and the very ugly face laughed exaggeratedly at this time, with a strange smile, Shamoko said: "I can't think of it, I can't think of it, there is someone who is willing to be your butcher's apprentice, isn't he frightened by your murderous name? Or did you not tell him your name at all, I have thousands of descendants, and I don't care if you die like one or two, I am more happy to see you turn against each other, hahahaha......" In the end, Shamoko was speechless, only his laughter still rang out.

Smiling and smiling, Shamoko turned and stepped into the sea. Yuan Ji didn't stop him, but just watched him gradually disappear into the vast sea.

Yuan Ji walked in front of Lin Chong's eyes, looked at Lin Chong, who was still looking up, looking at the dull gaze, Yuan Ji sighed deeply again, patted Lin Chong's shoulder, and said softly: "Lin Chong, it doesn't matter who taught you swordsmanship, what matters is what you want to do with this swordsmanship." After saying these words, Yuan Ji turned around and left with loneliness.

In the distance, Yuan Ji's voice came from afar: "I am a madman in this world, why should I be disturbed by the world, disturbed by the world!"

Lin Zhong knelt on the muddy ground like this, wondering if he heard Yuan Ji's last voice.

Maybe it was a long time, maybe it was tired from kneeling, Lin Zhong moved his body and wanted to stand up. When he was about to struggle to stand up, because he knelt for too long, his entire lower body was already numb, and as soon as he moved, the whole body was crooked, and he fell uncontrollably, falling on all fours. He must have been tired, lying on his back on the ground, he had no desire to get up again, just lying like that, thinking, until the stars filled the sky, everything around him was shrouded in darkness, and only the small village not far away was still a little light, flickering and flickering.

After a long time, even the light in the village disappeared completely, Lin Zhong was still lying on the ground like that, looking at the sky, the stars in the sky were shining, bright and dark. After watching it for a long time, he felt a little bored, Lin Chong opened his mouth, smiled, and then sighed again, and so on, until Shamoke's voice sounded behind him.
