Lin Shuo got out of the tent and found Zhang Jinduan sitting by the bonfire in the camp, with his back turned to him.
He couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, thinking that this kid was a stickler for keeping watch at night, he only cared about the movement outside, but he didn't care what happened inside.
Uncle's tent was touched, but this kid pretended he didn't see it.
But this kind of fucking thing, naturally can't be harsh on this eighteen-year-old boy.
In fact, he now knows that opening and closing his eyes can be regarded as a kind of performance of youth and maturity.
Hearing Lin Shuo coming out of the tent, Zhang Jin turned around slowly.
Lin Shuo gave him a look, which meant that it was time for me to watch the night, you go to sleep.
Unexpectedly, the kid didn't move, his eyes were fixed on Master Zhui, who was carried on Lin Shuo's back, and he slowly raised his right hand, touching the handle of Tang Dao.
"Please... please... please..." Zhang Jin stumbled, as if he wanted to say something.
Lin Shuo wondered for a while, and then figured out what this kid wanted to do.
That meant that he wanted to try again to catch Lin Shuo's three sabers in order to get back his own treasured saber.
The words he wanted to say should be the phrase "please give me your advice".
The previous time I spoke quite neatly, but tonight it didn't seem very effective.
Lin Shuo thought for a while, then slapped Ji Kuo who was chasing after him behind him, and the Tang knife entrusted to him by Zhang Lianhai appeared in his hand.
When the Zhang family was at its peak, it had eight unique skills, each of which was earth-shattering, and was hailed by the people in the family as the Eight Great Ming Kings who descended into the world to subdue demons.
When it was passed down to the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial court had very strict management of civilian weapons, and it was difficult to walk around the rivers and lakes with long weapons. In addition, the Zhang family itself gradually declined, so the eight sets of unique skills were lost and merged. The next three sets have also been integrated on the blade, and unified into the knife method.
Today, these three sets of inheritance are called "Motion", "Horse Head" and "Peacock".
Among them, "do not move" is a single sword technique, which is the most famous, and it is also the stunt that the Zhang family shows the most in front of outsiders, and it is the foundation for the Zhang family to walk in the rivers and lakes.
"Horse head" is a double-knife technique. It is said that the horse-head double-knife is extremely powerful, and it is the status symbol of the head of the Zhang family.
"Peacock" is the flying knife technique, the most difficult to practice among the three sets of unique skills, and it is also a unique skill passed down by the master.
As for the treasured weapons handed down by the Zhang family, there are "two majors and seven minors".
"Seven Little" refers to the seven flying knives. It is said that these seven flying knives have different shapes and characteristics. They are not from the Zhang family, and they have never seen it. It is also best not to see it, because when you see it, your life will be gone.
The "two big ones" are these two Tang sabers, which are now on Zhang Jin's back and Lin Shuo's hands respectively. These two Tang knives are exactly the same regardless of male and female.
Lin Shuo knew the Zhang family's "do not use a knife".
When Zhang Lianhai was in Kunlun Mountains six years ago, he taught him this single-handed technique.
And the "horse head sword" with two swords in hand is the Zhang family's secret skill, and only the head of the Zhang family is qualified to use it.
When Zhang Lianhai was dying, he entrusted Lin Shuo with the sword in his hand, which was actually Tuogu.
His son, Zhang Jin, had to pass Lin Shuo's test before he could hold two swords and officially become the head of the Zhang family.
This entrustment weighed heavily in Lin Shuo's heart, so he naturally wouldn't let Zhang Jin down.
If Zhang Jin didn't have a scripture teacher and was not good at learning skills, he would definitely not let this kid hold two knives and smash the golden signboard of Lao Zhang's family.
And now, Lao Zhang's family has only this single seedling left. Before this single seedling grows into a towering tree, Lin Shuo is also worried.
From Lin Shuo's point of view, with Zhang Jin's current level, it will take at least five years before he can hold his own three times.
It's not that Zhang Jin's sword skills are too different from Lin Shuo's. This young man has been taught by the Zhang family since he was a child, and he and Lin Shuo are actually on the same level when it comes to single-handed sword skills.
The current gap between the two is mainly in strength.
In the face of Lin Shuo's absolute superiority in strength, no matter how good Zhang Jin's sword skills are, it is useless.
The eighteen-year-old boy, although he has grown in stature, is actually a skeleton.
For a man of this age, the nervous system responds extremely quickly and has strong resilience, but his muscles are far from strong enough and lack explosive power. This is the natural law of the human body.
If you wait another five or six years, when you are twenty-three or four years old, it will be a different scene.
In the past five years, Lin Shuo will also find ways to slowly correct Zhang's eating problems, and at the same time make up for him in cultural lessons.
At that time, the Tang knife in Lin Shuo's hand will be handed over to this descendant of the Zhang family with confidence.
During these five years, Lin Shuo will never release water. As long as this kid dares to challenge him once, Lin Shuo will punish him once.
But right now the young man is stuttering, and when he finishes the sentence "please enlighten me", it will probably be dawn.
Therefore, Lin Shuo lightly tossed the Tang Dao in his hand.
Zhang Jin obviously didn't expect Lin Shuo to do this, he stretched out his hand to catch the knife, and was stunned.
"The big battle is coming, and the horse-headed swords can be regarded as a means of saving your life." Lin Shuo said lightly, "But don't get me wrong, I'm lending you this knife for your life. Take it back. When you can really catch my three swords, I will officially give you this sword."
"Now... now..." Zhang Jin stammered.
"Now you are still far behind." Lin Shuo rolled his eyes at him, "Go back to sleep."
"oh."
Zhang Jin was a cheerful person. Seeing that Lin Shuo was not in the mood to take up his challenge, he didn't insist anymore, but got into his tent.
Lin Shuo took the seat where Zhang Jin had been sitting before and began to watch the night.
This location, right next to the bonfire, is currently the most eye-catching place in the camp.
Whenever there is something approaching here from outside, the first thing you see is Lin Shuo.
If it is an ordinary person, the vigil cannot sit in this position.
Because the bonfire is too bright, if a person is in a bright place and looks into a dark place, he will not be able to see anything.
If you sit here and watch the night, you are a target. It is not so much a watch as you are waiting to die.
But Lin Shuo or Zhang Jin can do this, because they all have their own unique perception ability.
In fact, among the six families, the perception ability of the Lin family has never been top-notch, which has something to do with the distribution of functions among the six families.
After all, the Lin family is the main fighting force. They don't care about scouting in a team, but when hunting alone, their noses are often enough.
Relatively speaking, the hunters of the Yun, Su, and Zhang families have stronger perception abilities than the Lin family in most cases.
The Yun family's perception is amazing, even Lin Shuo is just copying what other people say, and has never seen it with his own eyes.
The Su family mainly relies on listening. Individuals with excellent talents, such as Anne, can use the hair on their whole body to sense the surroundings, just like small antennas. This Lin Shuo can't learn.
The perception ability of the Zhang family is actually not unique in itself, but there is one thing, which is much better than that of the Lin family.
They can understand animal language. The perception ability of beasts and birds is much stronger than that of humans.
When Zhang's family opened the way ahead, or kept watch at night, all the nearby creatures were actually their sentries.
If there is any trouble, the beasts will be alarmed first, and the Zhang family will know.
But this forest, according to Xiaoba, is different from other forests, and wild animals may not be reliable.
Zhang Jin's side, even if Xiaoba has come back, only a wolf and a bird can take advantage of it.
So Lin Shuo didn't dare to let Zhang Jin stare at him too much, and whenever he could take a nap, he quickly replaced him.
Lin Shuo was used to doing this by himself for the long night afterwards.
The mistake of mistaking Anne for Dylan before would not happen under normal circumstances.
The human sense of smell wakes up later than the brain.
When just waking up, human's sense of smell will be greatly reduced, and the mouth will not be able to taste the taste, and it will take some time to recover.
At that time, Lin Shuo was awake, but his nose was not fully awake yet.
It's different now, his sense of smell has been mobilized to the maximum, and Xiao Ba and Lao Bai are around, so there is no problem.
He himself can close his eyes and rest there.
This night, be safe and sound.
When Lin Shuo opened his eyes again, it was already dawn.
Wei Xingshan got out of the tent and relit the bonfire that had been extinguished.
Recently, it has been difficult for this guy, he has taken care of all the miscellaneous things, making him look like an orderly.
Having him by his side really saved Lin Shuo a lot of troubles. Lin Shuo also thought in his heart that if there was any business in the future, he might as well take him with him.
After the two greeted each other, Wei Xingshan collected the empty bags piled up in the camp again, which meant to go to the nearby snow-capped mountains and bring back some snow.
This man is very thoughtful. When he wakes up early in the morning, everyone has to wash and drink water.
As a result, half of the backpacks were collected, and the man froze in the camp.
With a height of 1.98 meters, it is very eye-catching when he hits the center of the camp. It is hard for Lin Shuo not to care:
"What's wrong?"
Wei Xingshan stared blankly at the ground, his Adam's apple moved, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then turned his gaze to Lin Shuo, and hooked his fingers: "Old Lin, come here."
"what?"
"No kidding." Wei Xingshan said solemnly, "Come to my side."
Lin Shuo saw that the man's expression was wrong, so he sniffed, but he didn't smell anything unusual.
So he stood up, walked a few steps, and came to Wei Xingshan's side.
Wei Xingshan took a deep breath, pointed to the grass in front of him: "Look there."
The sky is already bright now, and today is a long-lost sunny day.
The sun was hanging on the ridge to the east, showing half of its red face, and the sun fell on the green grass, making the whole grass turn purple.
When Wei Xingshan was staring at the ground before, Lin Shuo also looked at this place and found nothing unusual.
But when he got to Wei Xingshan's side, Lin Shuo could see clearly.
On this piece of grass, there are two large characters.
These two characters were not written or engraved by people, but formed slowly because of the different growth directions of the grass.
Because of the light angle, from Lin Shuo's previous position, nothing could be seen.
But when he got to Wei Xingshan's side, the angle was deflected, and the two characters stood out.
These are two three-meter-square simplified Chinese characters written clearly:
"Please come back".
