"Don't worry, sir. He's a well-known old guy here. We'll kick him out right now." The waiter who had just accepted the customer was afraid that the knifeman would disturb Lin Yu's interest in dining, so he kept talking hurriedly. explained.
"It's okay, brother, we don't feel any discomfort. Let's serve food and drinks as soon as possible!" Lin Yu said in a condensed voice, his eyes still on the swordsman's table.
"Okay, boy, you're not afraid of death, are you? Someone's here!" Hearing the swordsman's answer and unwillingness to hand over the sword to him, the waiter immediately became angry and called four or five people in the blink of an eye. The burly thug stepped aside.
"Brother, should we help that person?" Chu Qingyan looked a little unbearable and asked softly.
Lin Yu shook his head. The money for a meal was naturally nothing, but he still wanted to see the swordsman's next reaction.
"Can a beating be enough to pay for the meal? If possible, you can hit me as long as I don't fight back." Although the swordsman's voice was small and humble, there was no sense of fear in his tone.
"This person's strength should not be low, but..." The swordsman's response made everyone a little confused.
The leader of the waiters shouted loudly: "Good boy, you have the guts! Brothers, give me a beating!"
"Wait a moment!"
When the thugs were about to take action, Lin Yu quickly interrupted and shouted: "I paid for his meal. All of you, please step aside."
After saying that, Lin Yu and Chu Qingyan came to the swordsman's side and handed a stack of source coins to the leader.
"This... Well, for the sake of this little brother, I'll spare you today!" After the boy collected the money, he naturally couldn't say anything more, so he had to leave with his thugs.
"Thank you both! If it weren't for you, I would have been beaten again today." The swordsman opened his bamboo hat slightly and thanked him.
Lin Yu finally saw the swordsman's face clearly. It was a face filled with various scars and tattoos. His eyes were bright, but the combination gave people a feeling of being inaccessible.
"Brother, are you from Qifeng Town?" Lin Yu asked calmly.
The swordsman shook his head and replied calmly: "I have forgotten where I came from. After all these years, I only remember the name of my sword."
"Can you lend us that knife?" Chu Qingyan was curious about the scimitar in the swordsman's arms and said a little straightforwardly.
Lin Yu felt that this was a bit rude and quickly said angrily: "Ayan!"
The swordsman glanced at Chu Qingyan. After hesitating for a while, he handed the scimitar buried in his arms to Chu Qingyan and said, "I can trust you two."
Chu Qingyan took the scimitar and opened the knife case slightly. A cold silvery moonlight flashed through the sunlight. Completely pulled away, this knife is indeed exquisite. The blade is curved like the moon and extremely sharp. The handle of the knife is exquisite and delicate, and it fits just right in the hand, as if it blends into the palm of your hand. The scabbard is gorgeous and elegant, inlaid with precious gems, shining brightly. Every time he drew out his scimitar, there seemed to be an invisible sense of oppression in the air.
"What a great knife." Lin Yu and Chu Qingyan praised one after another.
"This sword has been with me for eighteen years. After all these years, nothing has been left, except this old guy who has always been with me." The swordsman said with emotion, his eyes reflecting Duan Duan's sorrow.
After carefully placing the scimitar in the knife case, he quickly handed it back to the swordsman's hand. Lin Yu and Chu Qingyan both understood the heavy weight of this scimitar. Such a precious thing must be guarded with their lives.
Lin Yu took a lot of source coins and gave them to the swordsman, and said softly: "This money is a little bit of my heart. The eldest brother must accept it."
The swordsman covered his hands and said: "Hahaha, I know what the little brother and the girl are thinking. I have been walking around in the world for several years, but I have never taken other people's money without permission. You two will pay for me today. With the food money, I have already helped a lot."
"But if you don't have money, you will be hungry later, and you will be beaten again when you eat." Chu Qingyan said softly.
"We will talk about the rest later. Living in this world is just one day at a time. If you two have nothing else to do, I will leave first."
Lin Yu saw the principle deep in the swordsman's heart, so he simply stopped entangled and put away the source coin.
"Brother, may I ask how I should call you?"
The swordsman pondered slightly and said with his back eyes, "The name of my sword is Texue, and I am Texue."
After the Snow Swordsman left a sentence, he laughed three times to the sky, and then left with satisfaction.
"What a strange uncle." Chu Qingyan closed his jade eyes and said.
After Lin Yu and Chu Qingyan stayed at the Suiyue Restaurant for half an hour, they went to Qifeng Mountain in Qifeng Town.
Qifeng Mountain is full of dense and steep mountains. Each mountain has a different shape. A stone-shaped trestle is regularly erected between every two mountains. Viewed from a distance, it looks steep and independent. , really a unique one.
There are many medicinal herbs on Qifeng Mountain, but most of them grow on the edge of steep cliffs. Therefore, even during the golden hour in the afternoon, few people come here to pick them.
After visiting Qifeng Mountain for an hour or two, Chu Qingyan's enthusiasm began to wane. After a while, he called Lin Yu to take him away and rest in an inn.
Lin Yu had no choice but to listen to Chu Qingyan's words. He came to play with this aunt today and he must make her happy.
"Wouldn't it be a pleasure to live here quietly without the interference of external things?"
After sighing for a while, he took Chu Qingyan away from Qifeng Mountain and found a pretty good hotel to rest.
But what everyone didn't know was that after Lin Yu left the Time Restaurant, there was a figure following him closely. Because he kept a relatively long distance from Lin Yu, even the old man did not notice any movement.
Lin Yu and Chu Qingyan rested in the post for a long time. In the evening, Chu Qingyan was clamoring to set off the light boat again. Lin Yu doted on her, so he found out the route and followed the target.
The black shadow was still following closely behind Lin Yu and the two of them, flying mysteriously on the eaves of each roof. Between its bodies, there was a slight flicker of dark blue source energy.
Qifeng Town has the custom of setting off light boats in Qifeng Lake in the town every two days. According to common people's words, placing light boats floating in the lake can seek God's inspiration and seek a good future for oneself; secondly, it can It can be connected with smoke, seek good people, and find a good family.
Lin Yu also took out a light boat and thought about his parents silently in his heart, then let it float away, hoping that he would be able to fulfill his wish.
Chu Qingyan was particularly special. He specially picked three extremely exquisite light boats from a mother-in-law. He also borrowed pen and ink to write and engraved characters all over the boats. Lin Yu wanted to check, but Chu Qingyan refused and asked him to wait aside, preventing Lin Yu from approaching.
Chu Qingyan lined up the three light boats and placed them on the lake in order. He closed his water eyes slightly, put his hands on his chest like a prayer, and muttered a few words vaguely in his mouth.
Lin Yu was watching not far away, although he couldn't hear clearly what she said. But at this moment, the moonlight rippled softly on the girl's face, seeming to make her blend into one with herself, bright and beautiful...
