Han Yuying said: "Brother Lin, I grew up in the village and don't know etiquette. I don't ask for anything else. As long as I can be by your side, serve you and be a maid, I will be satisfied!"
Lin Xiaodong nodded and smiled: "I don't need you to serve me, so just stay."
Han Yuying smiled and nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
Han Yuying stayed at Hongmian Villa.
Early that morning, a sound from the field called Zeng Qian.
Zeng Qian saluted and asked, "What are your instructions, teacher?"
Tian Sheng said: "Prepare your horses and follow me to Muzhen Mountain for a walk."
Zeng Qian asked: "Teacher, are you going to ask Pavilion Master Qiao to take action?"
Tian Sheng said: "Our Deqing Valley lost in the hands of an outsider, we have to get this face back and give Lin Xiaodong a blow. Don't think that we have no one in Suinan County!"
Zeng Qian took the order, took out the horse, and went up to Muzhen Mountain with Tian Sheng.
The disciples of Shijian Pavilion went out to greet them: "It turns out to be the owner of Deqing Valley and Senior Brother Zeng. Please come quickly."
The two of them entered the door and came to the hall. They saw a whole wall of broken swords hanging on the wall. They were all broken by the pine pattern sword held by Qiao Jian, the master of the Sword Trial Pavilion.
Not long after, Qiao Jian and his first disciple Yang Xiangbao came through the door.
Qiao Jian is in his fifties, dressed in rich clothes, with a thin figure, not a single white hair on his temples, his face is green and black, his eyes are shining brightly, he holds a pine pattern sword in his hand and the scabbard is green.
Tian Sheng bowed his hands and said, "Tian has met Pavilion Master Qiao."
Qiao Jian returned the courtesy, his voice hoarse: "It turns out to be the owner of the field, please take a seat."
Several people sat down separately, and Qiao Jian asked: "Why does Master Tian Gu have free time today?"
Tian Sheng said: "If you have some free time, Suinan County has been very lively these days. I wonder if Pavilion Master Qiao has heard about it?"
Qiao Jiandao: "What Master Tian Gu is referring to is the destruction of Qingyi Village and Huangsha Island by thieves?"
Tian Sheng nodded: "That's exactly what happened."
Qiao Jian narrowed his eyes: "This is a good thing that benefits the people."
Tian Sheng said: "This is certainly a good thing, but the people who did it are very disrespectful to our Suinan County sect."
Qiao Jian squinted: "Oh? Who is the person who did this?"
Tian Sheng snorted: "This man's name is Lin Xiaodong. I don't know where he is from. He only said that he came from the north. He used a sword with a flat edge and wiped out Qingyi Village and Huangsha Island alone."
Qiao Jian blinked: "How is this possible?"
Tian Sheng said: "I have also fought with this person. His sword moves are clumsy but extremely fast. He has the courage to fight one against five."
Qiao Jian sat up straight: "Did Master Tian Gu fight with him?"
Tian Sheng shook his head and sighed: "Tian has been practicing swordsmanship for twenty years, but he was defeated by a young man and is ashamed of himself. That's why he came to see Pavilion Master Qiao. He must join me in the Nanxian sect and save his face."
Qiao Jian smiled when he heard this and looked back at the broken sword on the wall: "Another sword has been added to the Sword Trial Pavilion!"
Tian Sheng stood up and saluted: "Thank you!" and said goodbye.
After Tian Sheng left, Qiao Jian ordered Yang Xiangbao: "First go and find out where this person is now."
Yang Xiangbao took the order and went down the mountain to Huangqiao Village.
Meng Donggui came up and asked: "Who are you looking for?"
Yang Xiangbao asked: "Lin Xiaodong lives in the village?"
Meng Donggui asked: "Who are you?"
Yang Xiangbao smiled: "I am Lin Xiaodong's friend."
Meng Donggui said: "Friend? Daxia Lin is from the north. Where do you find your friend in Suinan County?"
Yang Xiangbao looked stunned, and with a clang, he unsheathed the sword in his hand, pressed it against Meng Donggui's neck, and shouted sternly: "Say! Where is Lin Xiaodong!"
Meng Donggui could only say: "At the Cotton Tree Villa!"
Yang Xiangbao snorted coldly, put away his sword and rode away.
Meng Donggui thought: "This person will definitely do harm to Daxia Lin. I have to go and inform him immediately." He took the donkey and hurried to Yutai Mountain.
Lin Xiaodong and Han Yuying came to see him together.
Meng Donggui got off the donkey and said, "Dr. Lin, what's wrong, someone just asked about where you live."
Lin Xiaodong asked: "Who is it?"
Meng Donggui shook his head: "He didn't say anything. He pointed the sword at me, so I said you were at Cotton Tree Villa."
Lin Xiaodong nodded and said: "I understand, please give Brother Meng a trip."
Meng Donggui said: "Master Lin, be careful."
Lin Xiaodong thought for a while and said to Han Yuying: "Miss Han, how about you follow Brother Meng back to the village for a while?"
Han Yuying shook her head: "I don't."
Meng Donggui said, "Miss Han, be careful here." He rode his donkey down the mountain.
Han Yuying said unhappily: "Brother Lin, you are driving me away again."
Lin Xiaodong said: "I want you to go down the mountain to avoid the limelight, but it doesn't mean you won't come back."
Han Yuying said: "I wasn't afraid of the people who killed Qingyi Village and Huangsha Island back then. What am I afraid of now?"
Lin Xiaodong nodded: "Just let them come to me."
At night, a group of people marched up Yutai Mountain, holding torches and lined up in a row. They were Tian Sheng, Zeng Qian, Zhong Qing, Du Binyu, Dong Youyu, Qiao Jian, Yang Xiangbao, Dong Run, Dong Huaisheng, and Guo Shimo.
Lin Xiaodong and Han Yuying walked out. Lin Xiaodong was carrying a hidden sword, and Han Yuying was holding a small dagger.
Tian Sheng asked: "Why are you here? Where is Master Wu?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Zhang Hou of Qiyun Fort is Wu Xianzhang's uncle. Wu Xianzhang wanted to avenge Zhang Hou, but he was killed by Lin and his masters and disciples of the Quancheng Sect."
Qiao Jian said angrily: "You bastard! Sun Fei actually worked with outsiders to deal with the Suinan County sect?"
Lin Xiaodong looked sideways: "Sect? There are bandits and robbers who come and go between Hongmian Villa and Qiyun Castle. They are all the same!"
Tian Sheng shouted angrily: "Nonsense! Lin Xiaodong, you killed my colleagues in Suinan County and occupied the magpie's nest. This is a heinous crime. I will avenge Master Wu today!"
Lin Xiaodong looked cold: "Do you really want to avenge Master Wu? That means working with the bandits. Don't blame Lin for being ruthless!"
Tian Sheng said: "Lin Xiaodong! Don't be arrogant! Don't think that I have no one in Nan County! Today I invited Master Qiao of Shijian Pavilion to come here just to treat you!"
Lin Xiaodong smiled darkly: "When we were wiping out the water thieves and Japanese pirates, I didn't see you being so majestic!"
Guo Shimo gritted his teeth and stared: "If you kill a few thieves, don't you know how high the sky is? Guo Shimo of the Trial Sword Pavilion wants to meet you!" He came to kill with his sword.
Lin Xiaodong faced Guo Shimo with his Tibetan sword out of its sheath. They were in the same place as Guo Shimo. The two swords intersected and the conflict continued for twenty rounds.
Guo Shimo was defeated and was scratched on the arm by Lin Xiaodong. Blood flowed out and he was wounded and defeated.
Dong Huaisheng stepped forward and asked, "Who taught you such swordsmanship?"
Lin Xiaodong said: "Lin's sword comes from the heart, not for seeking outside!"
Dong Huaisheng shouted: "Nonsense!" He raised his sword and slashed.
Lin Xiaodong returned the swords in his hands, raised both swords at the same time, and fought on foot for twenty times, knocking off Dong Huaisheng's sword.
Dong Huaisheng took a breath of cold air and retreated in defeat.
Xiao Run flew over and said, "Xiao Run is the one from the Trial Sword Pavilion!"
Lin Xiaodong greeted him with his sword, and the battle was in full swing. The hidden-edge sword was placed on Xiao Run's neck.
Xiao Run froze, and slowly sheathed the sword in his hand and removed it.
Yang Xiangbao came at him with his sword: "That's Yang Xiangbao, the leader of the Trial Sword Pavilion!" Lin Xiaodong stood up and fought again. After fifteen rounds, a sword hit Yang Xiangbao's heart.
