Regarding the Yin people, Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie's attitudes were somewhat different.
Sun Yixie's natural personality is that he likes to do that kind of thing, so unless he is completely sure or has no choice, he will generally not take the initiative to confront the enemy head-on.
But Huang Donglai is different. He and Brother Sun often play dirty tricks together because they are "reasonable" rather than because of love. In addition, he has a stronger temper and always wants to prove himself, so as long as he meets him, he feels that it is okay. Regardless of whether he is sure of his opponents in a battle, he tends to go head-on.
Now, being challenged like this by Shao Dejin, Huang Donglai got excited at that moment. He glared at the other person and shouted: "Damn! What's wrong with this? Come on!"
As he spoke, he took off his sword from his back (Taoist priests' swords are usually carried on their backs instead of tied around their waists), and put on a posture ready to draw their swords and start fighting at any time.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yuancheng suddenly rushed over and stood in front of him: "Senior, wait a minute!"
Lin Yuancheng recognized Shuang Xie, and he only called him "Senior" to those around him and in the audience.
"What happened just now is indeed something Lin did wrong..." Lin Yuancheng said, turning his head slightly to look at Shao Dejin, and then looked at Huang Donglai and said, "My master taught me a lesson, and he was right... Lin is willing to I will be punished." He paused, clasped his fists and raised his hands, "I hope the two seniors will show their respect for the sake of our Xingyimen family affairs..."
Ladies and gentlemen, this step and one word from Lin Yuancheng can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing to do.
As for Shao Dejin... Even though Lin Yuancheng knew very well that what Sun Yixie just said was true, "The master couldn't bear to lose face and took it out on his disciples to vent his anger on," but no matter what, he had stayed in Xingyimen for several years and called him master for several years. , he should suffer a little loss as a junior and let the elders have a chance to step down, which is what he should do.
Regarding Shuangxi's side... Lin Yuancheng naturally understood that Brother Sun and Brother Huang wanted to help him, but he could only accept this kindness - if he really wanted to take action, Lin Yuancheng would not feel sorry if Huang Donglai was harmed.
Going one step further, if Huang Donglai stood up for Lin Yuancheng and defeated Shao Dejin, wouldn't Lin Yuancheng's situation at Xingyimen be even worse?
Therefore, at this moment, Lin Yuancheng decided to take matters into his own hands and let the master vent his anger and find a moment to step down, so that the matter could be settled.
"Alas... Shao Dejin, Shao Dejin, how could such a treasure be picked up by a waste like you..." At the same time, looking at Lin Yuancheng's response, Di Bujue felt jealous and sighed in his heart.
He felt very angry when he thought about it: Why did a half-way disciple like Lin Yuancheng, who was young, talented, strong in martial arts, knowledgeable, and handsome, choose to go to your Xingyi Sect? If he comes to my Cao Gang, I will immediately train him as my "nephew"'s future right-hand man. Even if I am asked to "mount the horse with gold and dismount the horse with silver" and follow Cao Cao's courtesy to Guan Yu, I will win over this person no matter what. .
However, Shao Dejin didn't think so...
Di Bujue is a careerist. No matter what his real capacity is, at least he has a relatively large layout.
As for Shao Dejin, he was a stingy person. When he saw Lin Yuancheng's actions to dissuade Huang Donglai, he had a completely different understanding in his mind, so he was so angry that his eyes almost bulged out: "Bastard! What are you doing? You've decided that you can't beat me as a master, so why don't you come to intercede on my behalf?" He roared here, drew his sword and stabbed, "Get out of my way!"
Shao Clan Master's sword was very powerful. On the line in front of the sword tip, in addition to Lin Yuancheng's back, there was also the right half of Di Bujue's body, and Huang Donglai's front.
Do you think Lin Yuancheng should dodge or not?
If we don’t dodge, our Shaoxia Lin will die here; if we dodge, Gang Leader Di will probably be fine and he can avoid it by turning sideways, but what about Huang Donglai? For Brother Huang, this sword is coming from the blind spot of his sight, and he may not be able to dodge it.
Lin Yuancheng was helpless.
He was bent on seeking the truth, and he thought that as long as he had a clear conscience and accepted the circumstances, he could avoid being involved in a dilemma like today.
But in the world of martial arts, how can one not get involved in grudges, arouse feelings and enmities, and not make decisions...
After all, Lin Yuancheng was not a ruthless person. Today, for the sake of the word "righteousness", he followed his heart and did something that would drastically change his future career.
At that moment, Lin Yuancheng leaned forward, stepped forward, stretched out his arm, and pulled out Huang Donglai's unsheathed "Village Sword". Then, he didn't look back at all. Down, turn your wrist and hold it backwards, wave your hand back...
when--
The next second, the blade of the village's best sword passed close to Di Bujue's ribs, and passed behind Lin Yuancheng at an incredible angle, barely able to block Shao Dejin's thrust.
When this hand was revealed, many experts present changed their expressions, and among them, Di Bujue was the most surprised.
After all, our Gang Leader Di is standing closest and can see the most clearly. He knows that at such a posture and speed, Lin Yuancheng can still "spin" the sword behind him and just avoid him, the person standing in the way. ...how difficult it is.
"You! You dare to attack me?" On the other hand, Shao Dejin became even more frightened and angry when he saw that his move was blocked by Lin Yuancheng.
"Master..." Lin Yuancheng turned around at this time, facing Shao Dejin with his sword, and said in a rather struggling tone, "Don't force me anymore..."
"What? I forced you?" Shao Dejin laughed angrily, "Ha...I asked you to get out of the way, but you not only didn't get out of the way, but also helped outsiders deal with me. How dare you say that I forced you?"
"Master, I..." Lin Yuancheng felt very uncomfortable now. He neither wanted Sun Huang and Shao Dejin to fight, nor did he want to expose their identities without their consent. He could only try to use "I have my own reasons." To stabilize Shao Dejin, he begged Master to stop.
But Shao Dejin didn't want to hear any more explanations from him: "Shut up! I don't have an apprentice like you!" He paused for half a second, and then continued with twitching muscles on his face, "Back then, I saw you were young and lonely, and your qualifications were acceptable, so I had good intentions. I took you in, but I didn’t go into details about your apprenticeship in art..." As he spoke, he already prepared his next move, "In the past few years, our Xingyi Sect has treated you Lin Yuancheng very well. Thinking of how you repaid kindness with vengeance today, deliberately humiliating me over and over again before the meeting of the Seven Heroes, and even wanted to attack me directly... Huh, surnamed Lin, you couldn't be an undercover agent sent to me by some evil heretic, right? "
Shao Dejin's words are really cruel. The meaning of "expelling him from the school" is already very clear, so I won't go into more details. The key is that if you take off the label of "evil heretic", you will not only be regarded as a disciple The act of venting his anger was justified and also greatly threatened Lin Yuancheng's future in the world.
The tycoons present were also puzzled... If Lin Yuancheng's initial action on stage to hand the sword to his master was an unintentional mistake, then later he helped two "old men" of unknown strange sects block the master's sword moves. What's going on? There's no way to explain this. Could it be that he really wanted to prevent Shao Dejin from coming to power?
"Alas..." At this moment, Lin Yuancheng sighed.
He was not lamenting for himself, but for Shao Dejin's pity.
"Shao Dejin." When the next sentence came out, Lin Yuancheng had already changed his name to Shao Dejin, "Although I have already known that you are a narrow-minded person, I really didn't expect that you would go to this extent just for the sake of face. …”
His tone was cold at this time, because in his eyes, Shao Dejin was already someone he didn't need to care about anymore.
"In the past few years that I have been in Xingyi Sect, I have respected you very much and obeyed your advice... The foundation and reputation I have laid for Xingyi Sect are obvious to all not only my fellow sects, but also other sects in Cangzhou. " Lin Yuancheng continued, "I, Lin Yuancheng, ask myself that every bite of food I eat and every skill I learn from you is not in vain. I don't owe you anything at all... Even if you kick me out without reason today, I will. I won’t say a word, let alone argue with you; but you insist on maliciously slandering my reputation in front of the heroes of the world, thinking of driving me to death...just because of your own incompetence..."
At this point, he paused and then said: "In that case, there is no need to talk about the master-disciple relationship between you and me. From today on, I, Lin Yuancheng, will be with you Shao Dejin and your Xingyi Sect again." No connection.”
"No more connection?" Shao Dejin sneered, "Humph...you mean there is no connection if there is no connection? It's not up to you whether you can take away some things."
Everyone knows what he means: According to the rules of the martial arts world, when a disciple leaves the school, no matter whether you are kicked out or just hang out, your martial arts skills cannot be "taken away" with you. It depends on whether the master agrees. If the master agrees, you can bring your martial arts down the mountain. If the master doesn't agree, he can abolish your martial arts.
However, after hearing what Shao Dejin said, Lin Yuancheng looked at an idiot and replied with a hint of surprise: "You are so embarrassed to mention the third-rate martial arts you taught?" He paused, Immediately afterwards, he said a very scary sentence in a very normal tone, "Could it be that... because I have called you master for several years, you think that my martial arts skills are inferior to yours?"
Before he finished speaking, there was a burst of noise in the venue.
Many people think this kid is crazy. Even if you are a leader among the younger generation, but you are less than twenty years old, you dare to say that your martial arts skills are higher than those of the leaders of the Four Sects and Three Gangs. ? I'm afraid it's not just a dream, right?
But... a group of senior masters, including Feng Shunfeng, Feng Shunshui, Lu Shiyuan and others who went to Luoyang to see the Young Heroes Association, all remained silent and thoughtful after hearing this sentence...
Although they didn't say it, they were actually thinking in their hearts: Is Shao Dejin going to die on stage today?
"Arrogant!" After a breath, Shao Dejin shouted angrily and took action angrily, "Shao will clean up the house with his own hands today!"
Although Shao Dejin has been Lin Yuancheng's "master" in the past few years, he really doesn't know how high the upper limit of Lin Yuancheng's martial arts is.
In Xingyi Sect, Lin Yuancheng had no chance or need... to show his true ability; even if he restrained himself, Lin Yuancheng did not escape Shao Dejin's jealousy of talent, so how could he deliberately do it? What is the "upper limit" to show?
However, now that the two sides have turned against each other, and Shao Dejin has set out to kill Lin Yuancheng, the latter no longer needs to hide it.
In the midst of the lightning and stone fire, I saw Shao Dejin raise his long sword and let out two scolding sounds.
This move is "one blow and two sounds". The sword light flashes back and is accompanied by body shape changes, sudden and curling, which is urgent and dangerous.
Lin Yuancheng's internal strength is definitely not as good as Shao Dejin's. He will suffer some losses if he tries this move forcefully. Fortunately, this time he is not inferior in terms of weapons, and his understanding of swordsmanship is much better than that of his opponent, so he is just a physical The figure turned around, the shadow of the sword flashed, and a wave of blows followed.
Relying on the skill of the two swords rubbing against each other, Lin Yuancheng easily deflected and neutralized Shao Dejin's powerful quick move, and then turned the blade again, taking advantage of the momentum to scratch Shao Dejin's flank.
When Shao Dejin felt pain in his abdomen, he was also surprised. He thought that with his own strength, he could crush Lin Yuancheng to death even if he fought hard, but he didn't expect that things were not that simple...
As we all know, in our modern fighting, when the difference in strength (weight/physique) reaches a certain level, the skills will lose their effect.
In this world of martial arts, although this iron law still exists, there is also a converse law - when the gap in skills (movements/states) is too large to a certain extent, sometimes power will lose its effect.
Lin Yuancheng's internal strength is not much better than his peers due to the limitations of his age and the techniques he practices. However, in terms of skills, his swordsmanship is exquisite and his swordsmanship is far-reaching. He is definitely not someone like Shao Dejin. It can be tied with strength.
After this move, Shao Dejin broke out in a cold sweat.
Even though he is extremely self-righteous, he can still tell whether a fight is good or bad after a fight - this is how masters fight, others may not be able to see clearly, but the person involved will know which one is better and which one is worse as soon as they come into contact.
But now that Shao Dejin has made harsh words to "clean up the family" and has taken the initiative to start a war, it seems that he is riding a tiger.
If he quits fighting, he may die socially; if he bites the bullet and continues fighting, he may die physically...
In addition, if you continue to fight, you will not die in the end, but you will not win either. It is still a social death.
Just when Shao Dejin was thinking wildly and worrying about gains and losses, suddenly, Huang Donglai's figure suddenly entered the battle group. He waved his left palm and swept his right leg, forcing Shao and Lin back a few steps each.
"Stop it!" Huang Donglai shouted, and it really worked.
Lin Yuancheng wanted to stop. He knew that Huang Donglai would not harm him.
Not to mention Shao Dejin, who stopped fighting when he saw a third party coming, it was as if he had received an amnesty.
"At the meeting of the Seven Heroes, in front of all the heroes, not a single thing was said about the selection of the general sect leader and the new sect. You three sects and three gangs started fighting among themselves here for no reason. What are you doing to clean up the sect?" The next second, Huang Donglai said Pretending to be very neutral, he said, "Aren't you afraid of making the world laugh at you?"
"That's right." Sun Yixie also took two steps forward at this time, squinting at Di Bujue and said, "Xiao Di, you too, since you are responsible for hosting the conference, you have to know how to control the scene, what else can you do? You can ask the heads to make other arrangements after the Qixiong meeting. Isn’t it embarrassing to make such a fuss in front of everyone?"
After hearing this, Di Bujue really wanted to go and stab these two guys to death.
Still in control? I used to have good control, but wasn't it because you two came here to stir things up and make me angry?
You two fanned the flames and made the situation like this, and now you suddenly changed your appearance of saying "just things" and threw the blame on me and asked me to clean up the mess? What do you want to do?
Di Bujue really couldn't understand Shuangxue's capricious operation, but from the perspective of Sun and Huang, it was normal to deal with it this way.
At first, they were just watching the excitement and wanted to see what the Di man's conspiracy was, so they made trouble there. But now, in order to help Lin Yuancheng, they changed their excuses.
Huang Donglai and Sun Yixie believed that Lin Yuancheng could defeat Shao Dejin, but it was precisely because of this that they needed to stop the battle.
Shuangxie knew villains like Shao Dejin very well. If Lin Yuancheng had been soft-hearted and not killed him today, or if he had voluntarily abandoned the battle to save his life, then he would definitely retaliate and slander Lin Yuancheng at all costs in the future - anyway, he had nothing at that time. There is no dignity at all, it is absolutely heartbreaking.
And if Shao Dejin dies, then his previous statement that Lin Yuancheng is an undercover agent of the evil sect may be used for chewing. Even if only one-third of the people present today believe it, it will be spread to ten and hundreds of people in the future. , which is also very detrimental to Lin Yuancheng's reputation and safety.
It's better to save the last bit of face for Shao Dejin and expose this article today. I think he would be happy to do so...
As for the future, there is a long way to go. If Shao Dejin "doesn't know how to praise", Sun Yixie and Huang Dong will have countless ways to deal with him.
"You two... what you said makes sense." Di Bujue endured the stomachache caused by the pressure and responded. Then he walked to the front of the center of the main stage again and held his hands toward the audience, "Comrades, , Today our four sects and three gangs had some disputes here due to some internal grudges, which made everyone laugh." He said, then turned back to look at Lu Yan, Lei Sanniang and Shao Dejin on the stage, "Master Lu , Clan Leader Shao, Senior Sister Lei... Regarding your matters, Di will give you an explanation after the issues of the Seven Heroes Meeting are over. For now, I hope that the three of you will put the overall situation first and stop letting the heroes of the world look at us. It’s a joke.”
Lu Yan stood for a while, and his anger was almost gone. Hearing these words, he sighed and said: "That's fine." He cupped his hands, turned around and left the stage.
As for Lei Sanniang, she was originally the one who had the most trouble with Di Bujue, but after hearing Di Bujue's remarks about "stirring trouble to the east", she did have doubts, so she also snorted at this moment. Quietly step down.
As for the remaining Shao Dejin, although he wanted to slip off the stage the most, for the sake of face, he still said to Lin Yuancheng before leaving the stage, "Lin Yuancheng, I will spare your life today, and I will settle the score with you later!" With a harsh word, he shook his head and jumped back into the Xingyi Gate formation.
Lin Yuancheng didn't bother arguing with someone like Shao Dejin, so he just smiled and ignored him.
At this moment, Sun Yixie said again: "Ah~ these people are all gone, so it's time for us to go back to the nook and cranny."
On the other side, Huang Donglai walked up to Lin Yuancheng, winked at the other person, and then took back his sword from the other person's hand: "What... if Lin Shaoxia doesn't mind, can you go squat there with us two elders for a while? "
"Come here..." Di Bujue is such a smart person. How could he not understand the implication of these two people? He curled his lips and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth, "... give the three of you a seat."
