Lin Xu picked up the wine jar and poured more wine for Huo Qingyun: "Although we have only met for the first time, I can see that you are definitely a hero among individuals. How could you be reduced to selling knives?"
"How can a person who served as a horse slave in the Huns dare to be called a hero?"
There was a self-deprecating and lonely look on the corner of Huo Qingyun's mouth.
"Heroes don't ask where they come from! You didn't voluntarily go to the Huns to be a horse slave, so why should you be worried about it? Although you are no longer in the Huns, in my opinion, you only came out physically, but your heart and soul are still trapped there.
Huns! Only by letting your heart and soul come out can you truly be liberated! As for how to do this, no one can help you except yourself!"
Lin Xu spoke sincerely and enlightened earnestly.
After hearing this, Huo Qingyun was silent for a while, then suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Lin Xu!
"Thank you sir for your enlightenment, Qingyun understands!"
Lin Xu smiled softly and stretched out his hand to signal: "As long as you understand! Sit down."
"Sir, you just asked me why I wanted to sell this knife. There are actually two reasons. First, I don't have money anymore. Second, I'm a little discouraged."
After sitting down, Huo Qingyun took the initiative to say.
"Why are you discouraged?"
Lin Xu asked.
Huo Qingyun was originally a taciturn person, but Lin Xu's enlightenment greatly moved him. His inner defenses loosened and he spoke more.
"I was originally from Datong. When I was seven years old, the Japanese slaves invaded Datong. The guards were unable to resist and fled without a fight! After the Japanese slaves entered Datong, they burned, killed, and looted wantonly! My parents and relatives all died at the hands of the Huns.
Under the knife!”
Speaking of this, Huo Qingyun's eyes couldn't help but filled with flames of hatred: "Because I was young, the Huns did not kill me. Instead, they took me back to the grassland and raised horses full-time. I am a horse slave!"
"Although I became a slave, I will never forget the blood feud between my parents and my closest relatives!"
"In order to take revenge, I secretly learned riding and shooting while raising horses, and my skills got better and better!"
"Later, during a hunting trip, by chance, I shot a tiger by myself. As a result, I was appreciated by the Khan and selected as his personal guard."
"In order to get me to serve him wholeheartedly, he even lied to me and said that I was actually a Huns!"
"However, I will not be deceived by him!"
"I always remember what kind of blood is flowing in my body, and who killed my parents and relatives!"
"The reason why I have not taken revenge is because I am waiting for the opportunity."
"In April this year, Khan is preparing to invade Datong again!"
"I took advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cut off the Khan's head and then escaped from the Huns tribe!"
"This scimitar is the sword carried by the Khan of the Huns!"
"The Xiongnu's plan to invade the south was already on the line, but because the Khan was suddenly killed, all the previous efforts were in vain!"
"I can be considered as doing something for the people of Daning!"
"Otherwise, I don't know how many people will be brutally slaughtered, how many people will have their families destroyed and homeless..."
After listening to Huo Qingyun's narration, Lin Xu couldn't help but stand in awe and said sternly: "Brother, this move can be called a 'national hero'!"
"national hero?"
A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Huo Qingyun's mouth: "I don't dare to have such an idea! Originally, after I escaped from the Xiongnu tribe, I just wanted to join the army, kill the Japanese pirates, and serve the country!"
"However, I have neither a household registration nor a dental card. According to the law, I am a refugee. Let alone joining the army to serve the country, it is almost impossible to do anything!"
"If I hadn't used money to clear the way, I might have been thrown into jail!"
"Originally, I wanted to join the Zhenxi Army, go to the battlefield, and kill the Huns!"
"However, when the person in charge of recruiting soldiers found out that I had served as a horse slave for the Huns, they immediately said that I was a spy sent by the Huns. They didn't even listen to my explanation and had me kicked out!"
"Later, I heard that Liu Mingju, the governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and Liang Shijie, the commander-in-chief of Zhejiang, are both good generals in the world!"
"So, I traveled through thousands of mountains and rivers and came to Hangzhou Prefecture, ready to join the Southeast Army."
"The result was still the same. After the people in the recruitment department heard about my origins, they also thought I was a trickster and kicked me out..." This chapter has been completed!
