Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 551: Drawing the Knife
Time passed, and it had been half a year since Lin Qianxing came to Xianliang Village.
Compared to Lin Qianxing's initial physical fitness, his basic physical attributes have now at least doubled.
And when the "Basic Inner Breath Method" is in operation, the strength can be increased by about 20%.
If he were placed in the game world of "Changchun Kung Fu", he could be considered a second-rate external martial arts master.
Even if ordinary people are armed with weapons, at least hundreds of them are definitely no match for Lin Qianxing.
And that was when Lin Qianxing was facing the enemy head-on.
If Lin Qianxing wanted to leave, even an ordinary horse might not be able to catch up with him at such a speed, and his endurance was extraordinary.
With his unique skill of flying knives, he could come and go freely even in the palace of Dawen Kingdom.
This strength is barely enough for Lin Qianxing to conquer the world.
But he was still very steady.
He still has room for improvement now, so there is no need to rush.
Early in the morning, Lin Qianxing took the children of Xianliang Village to do morning exercises, and then began to teach them how to write.
Now Lin Qianxing has changed their writing materials to charcoal pencils and ceramic boards.
After writing, you can wash it with water and continue to use it after drying. It is a good writing tool.
In addition, Lin Qianxing also made some paper, but those things were relatively difficult to make. He used these papers to record texts that needed to be read repeatedly.
There are shops selling paper and pens in the city, but they are expensive. Lin Qianxing doesn't have much money in his pocket now, so he is reluctant to spend it.
He also has ways to make money , but once he gets involved in economic activities, his tracks will easily be exposed.
Lin Qianxing still remembered that his current identity was sensitive. Unless necessary, he absolutely did not want to appear in the eyes of the government.
The weather in August was a bit hot. After teaching the children in the village, Lin Qianxing leaned against a magnolia tree and carved something with a knife.
"What are you whittling, sir?"
A voice appeared in Lin Qianxing's ears.
Lin Qianxing said without even turning his head: "It's a sword."
"Sword?" Chen Xiangqian was very curious and asked, "What is that?"
"A gentleman's tool." Lin Qianxing replied calmly.
After saying that, he raised the wooden sword in his hand. The sword body was straight. Although the three-foot-long blade did not have a cold glow, in his hand, it was still a deadly weapon.
Lin Qianxing casually made a sword flower and a smile appeared on his face.
Be it a sword, a knife, or a gun, they are all the same in his hands. He has no obsession with any particular weapon.
What Lin Qianxing likes is to use different weapons at different times to maximize their effects.
The knife he used before was too cumbersome and inconvenient to carry.
With his current strength, any sharpened chopstick would be enough for him to kill someone.
Why bother with more effort when you can just relax a little?
So he planned to use the sword instead from now on.
"Is this the sword?" Chen Xiangqian stared at the wooden sword in a daze.
"Do you like it?" Lin Qianxing asked with a smile.
"I like it!" Chen Xiangqian nodded.
After practicing "Basic Inner Breathing Technique" for half a year, Chen Xiangqian has become a little stronger from his skinny body.
His family was not well off, and it was difficult for him to have enough food to eat.
So when I am hungry, I will practice the "Basic Inner Breathing Technique".
Later, he even turned it into an instinct and would practice this method even when he was sleeping.
As far as talent in this area is concerned, he is considered to be one of the best.
"If you like, go and rewrite the article I taught you before ten times. I will check it tomorrow. Don't think about being lazy." Lin Qianxing said with a devilish smile.
Chen Xiangqian was stunned. He never thought that his momentary curiosity would bring him such a severe punishment. But in the end, he could only copy the documents honestly with a bitter face .
Lin Qianxing left the Zhanghua tree with the wooden sword, preparing to go home to get his things and then go fishing at the river outside the village.
He had just taken two steps out when he saw Liu Chengliang walking towards him.
Liu Chengliang moved very quickly and no one knew what had happened.
"Mr. Liu, what makes you so panicked?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"Oh, stop talking..." Liu Chengliang panted twice, then said, "Officials from the county have come to recruit soldiers from the village. They need to gather at least 20 strong men. I came here to tell you not to go out, so as not to be seen by them and cause unnecessary trouble."
Lin Qianxing showed emotion in his eyes. Has the war spread here?
Then he frowned again and said, "Twenty strong men? Isn't that a bit too many?"
There are young and strong people in the village, but twenty of them is a bit too many.
"There's nothing we can do about it. This time it's the county's intention." Liu Chengliang said with a bitter face.
Lin Qianxing nodded to show that he understood.
After a brief exchange with Liu Chengliang, Lin Qianxing returned home and gave up the idea of going out.
However, although he does not want to cause trouble, it does not mean that he can avoid it.
The other side.
The officers and soldiers who were recruiting soldiers asked all the able-bodied men in the village to stand forward. They wanted all those who were taller than a certain limit and under the age of 40.
The villagers were crying and sending people away, and soon there were twenty people gathered.
However, the officers and soldiers in charge of this matter were not satisfied.
"These old guys are probably almost fifty years old. How can I report to them when I go back?" Wen Renfang looked at his subordinates with dissatisfaction.
"Lord Liu also came from Xianliang Village. Should we give him some face?" his deputy said.
"Give him face?" Wen Renfang sneered, "If he hadn't married the daughter of the previous county magistrate and climbed up the social ladder, how could he have gotten his current position? Now it's Magistrate Xue who's in power! Search every household and take away all the strong ones."
"I understand," the deputy nodded.
Soon, the officers and soldiers began searching house by house.
Liu Chengliang's son Liu Yong was also abducted. He stepped forward in a panic and said, "Sir, don't we already have 20 people? This is against the rules!"
"Old thing, do you think you can fool me by finding some old guys? Get out of here!" Wen Renfang pushed Liu Chengliang aside and said.
For a moment, Xianliang Village was in chaos.
However, although the soldiers held weapons in their hands, the residents of Xianliang Village were angry but did not dare to do anything.
Bang bang bang~!
There was a knock on Lin Qianxing's door.
He pushed open the door and saw two armed soldiers.
The other party glanced at Lin Qianxing and said, "You have a good figure. Come with us!"
"Excuse me, gentlemen, why are you looking for me?" Lin Qianxing asked politely.
He already had some guesses in his mind, but he really didn't want to confront official forces unless it was necessary.
"Soldier, you have such a good physique, it would be a shame if you don't go to fight." said the soldier.
Hearing this, Lin Qianxing sighed slightly in his heart, and then said, "Sir, can you give me a little time?"
"What? You want to disobey orders?" an officer asked, drawing his blade.
After teaching in Xianliang Village for half a year, Lin Qianxing now wears a blue shirt and his hair is wrapped in coarse cloth. Although he is tall, he exudes a scholarly air and is less fierce.
So much so that the two officers and soldiers did not take Lin Qianxing seriously at all and even dared to threaten him with knives.
Lin Qianxing smiled and said, "I just want to prepare something. My ancestors have a precious sword, which is perfect for me to take to the battlefield to kill the enemy and defend the country."
Nowadays, it is actually quite difficult to get standard equipment after joining the army.
The court of Dawen State is now extremely corrupt. Many times, newly recruited soldiers cannot get good weapons.
Therefore, most people who join the army will bring their own weapons.
What Lin Qianxing said is reasonable.
So after hearing Lin Qianxing's words, the two officers nodded and said, "Then go ahead! Hurry up!"
Lin Qianxing nodded slightly, turned around and went back to the bedroom, and took out the knife box that was almost as tall as himself from under the bed.
He reached out and brushed away the dust, then let out a long sigh.
In this world, wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Where can you find a completely peaceful day to live?
Lin Qianxing carried the knife case on his back, turned around and walked out, saying to the two officers and soldiers, "Let's go, sir."
"Oh, it looks quite authentic." An officer took a look at Lin Qianxing's knife case and said.
"My ancestors were once glorious, but I have achieved nothing . I am sorry to make a fool of myself, sir." Lin Qianxing said politely.
"Okay, let's go." said another soldier.
Immediately, Lin Qianxing was taken to the village entrance by two soldiers.
Near the village entrance, Lin Qianxing also saw the scene of those officers and soldiers forcibly conscripting soldiers.
Seeing this scene, he had already made a secret decision in his heart.
Immediately, he began to observe the situation.
The number of officers and soldiers was twelve, which was not a large number.
He was holding a military sword in his hand, had no armor on his body, and carried no long-range weapons, so he was easy to deal with.
Seeing this, Lin Qianxing breathed a sigh of relief.
If the other side has a large number of people and is fully armed, he can only follow them for a distance and then consider leaving halfway.
Since the other party's strength is limited, he doesn't need to worry too much.
"What are you carrying, boy?"
When he saw Lin Qianxing appear, Wen Renfang immediately noticed the knife box behind him.
With such a long box, it is impossible not to attract attention.
"My lord, this is a precious sword passed down from my family." Lin Qianxing said.
"Oh? Open it and let me see?" Wen Renfang became interested and said to Lin Qianxing.
"Sir, the knife is a killing weapon. It has a strong evil aura and will be stained with blood every day." Lin Qianxing said meaningfully.
Wen Renfang heard the voice and said, "Sir, if I can't see your knife, the evil spirit will be even stronger. If you know what's good for you, open it quickly and let me see it."
If people who hold power do not have a firm mind, they can easily be corrupted by power.
Wen Renfang is obviously such a person.
He was originally a minor character, and everyone in the county government could order him around.
Now that he has been promoted and has power, when he finds that he can decide life and death, he wants to vent all the grievances he has suffered before on other people.
"Since the official wants to see it, I can't refuse." Lin Qianxing said.
As he spoke, he also took off the knife case from his back.
Immediately, he placed his hand on the buckle and gently opened it.
"Sir, watch out!"
The knife case was opened, and a cold light caught Wen Renfang's eyes.
“Nice knife!”
Before he could finish his two words, the knife was already on his neck.
