Lin Fengjin smiled. He couldn't help but glance at Lin De, who was shaking slightly with excitement, and then said meaningfully:
"Three crossbow arrows are enough to kill three people. Even if the stringing is slower later, it doesn't matter. As for... the accuracy issue, I have never had any concerns in this aspect. Really, even if
There is no weapon soul, but I firmly believe that since this crossbow is made, it will definitely hit the mark and never miss!"
***
The knife that Lin Fengjin wanted was delivered to the inn by Lao Jiao himself three days later. This Gurkha scimitar, which should not have existed in this time and space, stood out in the air, and the coldness on the edge seemed to come straight.
It's like forcing it in front of a person's face. The blade is mixed with square inches of iron, and there are traces of cloud patterns on it, and its power is said to be so powerful that even ghosts can't resist it!
According to Lin Fengjin's request, the scabbard and blade of the knife were made simple and inconspicuous. Only the word "Wang Ping" was engraved on the handle.
This name originally belonged to the Dog King and had been hidden in his heart for thirty years. The Dog King originally planned to restore his real name after clearing his name so that he could honor his ancestors after his death and meet his parents and ancestors. Unfortunately, he met
Arrive at Lin Fengjin.
The reason why Lin Fengjin engraved this name on the handle of the knife was to commemorate it.
When the dog king was alive, he was a powerful figure and a hero, but after his death, he almost became food for wild dogs!
As a demon fate person, Lin Fengjin would certainly feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, but he had no way to reverse this situation, because this situation was caused by him. If he reversed it, he would probably be used as a midnight snack by wild dogs.
It was just him, but the feeling of helplessness and chess piece in his heart was so strong.
Therefore, the only thing Lin Fengjin could do was to carve the name of the Dog King on the handle of the sharp weapon that accompanied him. Even when he touched the name, he could not help but think: If one day
I died and became a prey, so would anyone engrave my name on a place like a memorial?
Such thoughts made Lin Fengjin feel desolate.
Very intense desolation.
There is nothing surprising about this. No matter how strong a man is, there must be some vulnerability in his heart. What’s more, Lin Fengjin, a gray-haired boy who has not yet seen through the world of mortals?
So he gave up his plan to leave Xiangfan today, but after letting out a long breath, he was extremely eager to go out for a walk, hoping that the popularity of the bustling streets in Xiangdu could dilute the pain in his heart.
This is an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
For this reason, he rejected Linde's companions and asked him to continue studying the treasured crossbow, and set foot on the street alone.
However, it was not until he was among the crowd that Lin Fengjin realized that loneliness could not be alleviated by the presence of many people. Witnessing the laughter and laughter of others and rubbing shoulders with each other made the loneliness deeper.
Therefore, Lin Fengjin, who was a little confused, followed the crowd and walked unconsciously, because his subconscious was chasing the excitement. So he unconsciously started to follow the flow of people, heading towards the busiest and most crowded places.
go.
The most prosperous place in Xiangdu is the square four miles west of Yu Street. It is also very popular even late at night and early in the morning.
That place is often called... Zhaoming Mountain.
After walking more than half a circle around Xiangfan City, Lin Fengjin felt a little hungry. The prosperity of Zhaoming Mountain was also mentioned earlier. It can be said that there are people walking around day and night. The water and rice stalls sold by the small stalls alone,
There are meat, dried bean curd, wild fox, preserved meat, pork and many other dishes that go well with rice.
As for the snacks, such as pan-fried sheep, white intestines, preserved bream, (Huozan) frozen fish head, ginger (螼舂) seeds, squid, red shreds, sliced sheep heads, spicy pickled vegetables, apricot slices, and plums.
Ginger, lettuce shoots, mustard melons, minced ravioli, fragrant candies, etc. are all available.
Lin Fengjin ordered a bowl of wontons with spices from a roadside stall. While listening to the flower girl next to him singing "Lotus Blossoms Fall," he sat and finished eating it under the warm winter sun. He suddenly felt sweating all over his body.
I felt that the sun was quite dazzling. When I raised my head slightly, I saw the white sun hanging above my head.
The sun is at the zenith of the sky, which is the time when the yang energy is the strongest in the day. It is also called the third quarter of noon. The executioner will behead the prisoner at this point. This is the time for execution.
Lin Fengjin still didn't feel anything special at this time, and because the feeling of loneliness in his heart gradually dissipated, there was a sense of having a half-day of leisure in him, so he gradually became leisurely.
stand up.
This kind of leisurely life lasted until Lin Fengjin walked past a dirt platform while walking to eat.
Because Lin Fengjin had already blocked someone in front of him at this time, he said to Lin Fengjin in a gentle and casual tone:
"Donor, can you make a good relationship?"
Lin Fengjin casually said "hmm", took out five copper coins and handed it over, while glancing at the person in front of him.
At this time, he suddenly felt something was wrong,
And it's quite wrong.
For a while, I couldn't tell what was wrong.
But the man who had formed a good relationship smiled and refused to accept the copper coins, and just stood in front of him.
At this time, Ruo Lin Fengjin, who had become wise by chance, couldn't help but be stunned for more than ten seconds, and then he actually had a feeling that could not be expressed in words!!
That extremely ridiculous, extremely unbelievable feeling!!!
At this moment, the crowds of people in Zhaoming Mountain seemed to be diluted and eliminated in an instant, leaving only Lin Fengjin standing face to face with this person!
The person standing in front of Lin Fengjin was wearing very ordinary brown clothes and a black turban on his head. In the entire Xiangfan City, there were not a thousand but eight hundred people dressed like this. It can be said that they are instantly forgotten.
The winter wind mixed with the sunlight cast onto Lin Fengjin's face, making it warm and peaceful.
But Lin Fengjin's state of mind was as turbulent as a typhoon passing through!!!!
He stomped back two or three steps, his eyes as if he had seen a ghost. Ignoring the scoldings of the person who was hit behind him, he stayed stunned for a long time before saying:
"You...you!!"
Yes, Lin Fengjin has already recalled that sentence at this time, the curse that swallowed the lives of hundreds of people, including the Dog King, non-attacking disciple Wan Qi and others. That sentence has been proven to be a lie.
So much so that you would take it as a joke!
At three o'clock in the afternoon on the sixth day of the eleventh month, look for the man in brown clothes and black scarf at the statue of Master Zhaoming on Mount Zhaoming.
At three quarters past noon on the sixth day of November,
Statue of Confucius in Zhaoming Mountain,
Looking for the man in brown clothes and black scarf!!!!!
"Today seems to be the sixth day of November...the sun is so beautiful, it happens to be three quarters past noon."
"This should be the statue of Confucius on Zhaoming Mountain... When the hell did I come here??!!"
"The person in front of me, isn't that a fucking lie? I, I...did I see a ghost? But this day! Is there any ghost who dares to come out at this time?"
After all, Lin Fengjin had experienced too many shocks at this time... He was a human being in two lives. As a demon star, he encountered ghosts, changed his life against the will of heaven, and went through life and death! So he recovered quickly and took a deep breath.
He took a breath and said with a wry smile:
"I...you..."
Lin Fengjin, who was eloquent and sharp-tongued, couldn't think of a word for a moment in this extremely strange situation. In the end, he could only follow the other person's words and say:
"Then how do you create this good relationship?"
The man in brown clothes and black scarf suddenly said:
"May I ask where the donor came from?"
This sentence was ordinary at first, but it was secretly meaningful. It immediately made the hairs on Lin Fengjin's body stand up! He just felt that every word of the man in front of him was like a sword that was cutting him off!
Want to torture him into the most secret place deep in his heart!
Lin Fengjin could only pretend not to know and answered honestly:
"Come from Hecang."
But the man in brown clothes and black scarf immediately asked again:
"May I ask where the donor came from?"
Although this second question was exactly the same, it made Lin Fengjin sweatdrops. He felt that all his secrets had been revealed. He didn't know why, but he was extremely anxious. He seemed to be eager to answer this question.
Suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred and he immediately replied:
"Come from where you came from!"
After hearing this answer, the mysterious man in brown clothes and black scarf in front of Lin Fengjin suddenly smiled, as if he was relieved to hear the standard answer, and he suddenly said:
"Who are you?"
Lin Fengjin couldn't help but take a breath again after hearing this seemingly simple but actually meaningful question. Every question from this mysterious man in brown clothes and black scarf seemed to have profound meaning, and every sentence struck him directly.
Secret! He could only say solemnly:
"I am a boy from Hecang, son of the Lin family, a grain merchant."
Although Lin Fengjin just replied, the man in brown clothes and black scarf continued to ask the exact same question:
"Who are you?"
Lin Fengjin was asked by him so that beads of sweat the size of soybeans flowed down one by one on his forehead. He couldn't help but said impatiently:
"I am who I am!"
After hearing this, the man in brown clothes and black scarf nodded slightly, turned around and left. Lin Feng said anxiously:
"Where are the good ties you made?"
The man gave a long laugh and disappeared into the crowd. According to Lin Fengjin's skills at this time, he couldn't catch up at all! What's even weirder is that although the two of them had been talking face to face for so long, when Lin Fengjin recalled it, he actually
I realized that I couldn’t even remember what this person looked like!
His face seemed blank! Only the tranquility and profound temperament on his body made people feel more profound and far-reaching the more they recalled it.
What's even more strange is that in this bright world and under the scorching sun, Lin Fengjin closed his eyes and recalled his face, and what he felt was darkness! An endless, deep and gentle darkness that seemed to stay in the placenta of the mother's body.
!
After standing in this crowded crowd for nearly half an hour, Lin Fengjin took two deep breaths. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he felt much better. He felt that although he had only said a few words, his throat was actually weak.
It was so dry that I almost became mute. The main reason was that the experience just now was too unbelievable!
---------As if by chance, I actually met such a person who shouldn't be there at such a weird time and place! This really makes people feel like they are dreaming.
.
After walking a few more steps, Lin Fengjin ordered a sour and spicy hangover soup and drank it in one gulp. Although the sourness made him grin and the spicy food brought tears to his eyes, the real stimulating feeling made him really excited.
After coming back to his senses, Lin Fengjin suddenly felt some pain in his vest, and after scratching it for a few times, nothing happened.
After wandering on the streets for another afternoon, Lin Fengjin finally calmed down his mind. After all, faced with this kind of thing, he found that it was useless to worry and doubt, and could only bear it silently...
After discarding a series of distracting thoughts, Lin Fengjin took a deep breath and came to a conclusion.
It's time to leave Xiangdu.
It is already November, and the twelfth lunar month is not far away. If you want to enter an academy, you must find an academy before the twelfth lunar month, and then submit your name, place of origin, resume, and academic status.
Of course, for Lin Fengjin's status as a child student, there is still a chance that the registration will be rejected. After all, children of this age can be regarded as older youths and have no potential at all. And even if he passes, it will only be in the spring.
It is possible to study in the periphery of the academy and become an outer disciple. In current terms, it is an adult undergraduate degree, xx training class... Otherwise, you have to wait for the next year.
Of course, such rules have no effect on those talented people. The purpose of genius is to make exceptions. However, no matter how arrogant Lin Fengjin is, he cannot shamelessly say that he is talented in reading.
You can use "amazing" or similar words to modify...
Therefore, it is time to prepare for a rainy day. There are still some ways that major academies can think of for the assessment of outer disciples. If I am more efficient, then it is not too late to rush home to celebrate the New Year.
After making up his mind, Lin Fengjin suddenly remembered the pain in his vest on the street today. He was always a cautious person, so he immediately got naked and asked Lin De to come over and take a look at the position on his waist. Lin De carefully
After checking, he rubbed the belt vigorously and confirmed that there was no problem. Only then did Lin Fengjin laugh at himself, saying that he was too suspicious.
When Lin Fengjin went back to talk about this matter, Lin De was also amazed. After learning about this matter, Li Hu also took it seriously. He also had some connections at this time, so he confirmed again that these three sentences made by King Jing that day
The words are indeed bait, even two sentences are false, and only one is true!
After Lin Fengjin heard the news, what else could he do besides smile bitterly and sigh? Although he was puzzled, he still had to do what he had to do. He ran around in the capital and started to plan his entry into the academy.
, but the situation is not as optimistic as he imagined... (To be continued...)
