Chapter 12
Shen Jinyu lowered her head, staring straight at the kneeling futon.

The three sect masters stood quietly at the side, Zhao Zijing, master of the Yunshan knife sect, listened to Duan Cang's testimonials, reached out and stroked his beard, impatient in his heart, every year he had to say a good deal, is it annoying?Hurry up and finish my little lady who has just passed by and is still waiting.

Yuan Fei, the master of the Embroidered Wind Knife, looked at Shen Jinyu's thin back silently, and shook her head. She is also a woman, and she couldn't help but feel distressed seeing Shen Jinyu growing up without a father or mother.Duan Cang's words are perfect, but in the past 17 years, if he has taken care of Shen Jinyu with all his heart, Shen Jinyu will not be regarded as a disaster star by the Changlin people now, a thorn in the flesh.It's not like he didn't know how Shen Jinyu came here these years, didn't he let his disciples wantonly bully him?

Zhou Yifeng, the master of Tianchao Sword Sect, has always been Duan Cang's sycophant, and Tianchao Sect was just a small sect far away in the southern border town. The position of the three gate masters.So he has always regarded Duan Cang's words as an order that must be done.

The three sect masters each had their own concerns and waited for Duan Cang to finish the ceremony.

After finally waiting for him to finish reading, he knelt down and patted Shen Jinyu's shoulder again, looking like an elder, "Jinyu, your parents will definitely bless you, practice your knife well, and tell Uncle Duan what you want to do in the future, Uncle Duan has promised you everything, whether you are an official in the court, a chivalrous hero, or a wandering wild crane, Uncle will support you."

Shen Jinyu didn't answer, but still lowered her head.Several people are used to it, because Shen Jinyu does this every year on the festival day, and she is not in a good mood and doesn't want to talk.

After chatting about this, several people went out one after another.

When Shen Jinyu was the only one left in the ancestral hall, he slowly raised his head that had been hanging down, and the confusion in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a haze that was too thick to dissolve.

As the shadow of the sun moved westward, the light in the ancestral hall was slowly taken away by the sun, and Shen Jinyu's back was gradually submerged in darkness.

When it was completely dark, Shen Jinyu, who was kneeling on the ground, slowly moved his hands.He picked up the Fulian Knife that had been left aside all the time, and with his slender fingers, he pushed aside the scabbard. The bright light of the knife cast a shadow on the dark ancestral hall.Shen Jinyu put the knife in front of him, reached out and touched a loose spar on the scabbard, he pinched the spar and pressed it down, and a small groove appeared, lying inside A circle of soft silk cloth, only the size of two fingers.

Shen Jinyu reached out and took out the soft silk cloth, unfolded it, and saw densely written words on both sides of the silk cloth, which turned out to be a knife manual.

This sword manual was accidentally discovered by Shen Jin when he was 13 years old. Originally, he thought it was some kind of treasured sword manual hidden by his father in the scabbard, but after practicing for a year, he discovered that this sword manual Every move, every style, is restraining Duan Cang's Bu Yuan knife technique.

Duan Cang's Bu Yuan Saber combines the techniques of hundreds of swords, making it unpredictable.Before he took over as the owner of the villa, he was the teacher of Changlin, who specialized in teaching Bu Yuan Dao. After becoming the owner of the villa, Bu Yuan Dao was widely spread and became the first knife of Chang Lin Dao.

Why did my father think about restraining the Bu Yuan knife 17 years ago or even longer?This is the mystery that Shen Jinyu has been unable to solve in his heart for the past few years. He faintly began to feel that the death of his parents might not be that simple.

Qi Yue hasn't seen Shen Jinyu for a day, and today is his parents' memorial day, so he must be in a bad mood to compare him.In the evening, Qi Yue took some food and waited on the only way from the ancestral hall back to the dormitory.

It was cold at night, Qi Yue sat on a rock and waited for an unknown how long. When his hands and feet were so cold that he couldn't feel it, there was a familiar sound of footsteps behind him.Qi Yue turned his head and saw Shen Jinyu standing behind.

Qi Yue finally waited for him, and couldn't help laughing, "You're back!"

She wanted to stand up, but due to sitting for too long and the weather was too cold, her legs were already so cold that they were starting to feel numb and weak. She couldn't help but fell down.Seeing this, Shen Jinyu hurried over to support her, but when her hand touched Qi Yue's, she was startled.
"Why are your hands so cold?" After speaking, he suddenly realized something, and asked tentatively, "How long have you been waiting here?"

"Hey, my feet are numb," Qi Yue grabbed Shen Jinyu's arm, and slowly sat back, "I don't know how long it's been, I just came over after dinner,"

Shen Jinyu frowned, squatted down and sat next to Qi Yue, "Are you stupid? Why are you waiting for me when it's so cold at night?"

"Hey," Qi Yue beat his numb calf with one hand, and took out an oiled paper bag from his bosom with the other hand and handed it to Shen Jinyu, "You stay in the ancestral hall all day today, and I can't bother you. Waiting for you on the only way you must go back to the house, "

Shen Jinyu took the oiled paper bag and opened it, and inside was a small portion of crispy meat.Because it was wrapped in oiled paper and Qi Yue kept it in his arms, even after waiting for so long, the little crispy meat was always warm.

"You..." Shen Jinyu looked at the little crispy meat in his hand, and suddenly there seemed to be something choked in his throat. He said with some difficulty, "How do you know that I like it?" Hands, I was so cold, but I didn't let the little crispy meat cool down.

Shen Jinyu had never been treated with such care before.

Qi Yue replied with a look of course I knew, "I eat with you every day. As long as there is this crispy meat in the daily dishes, you will definitely eat it. Can I not know? Eat it quickly, it will get cold in a while,"

She can guess what he likes to eat.

Shen Jinyu reached out to pick up a piece and put it in his mouth. Although the warm little crispy meat was not so crispy, it was still delicious. Aftertaste, it seemed that there was a little more sweetness. He didn't even realize it. A faint smile slowly formed on the corner of his mouth.

When Shen Jinyu finished eating the little crispy meat, Qi Yue smiled with satisfaction, "Are you hungry?"

Shen Jinyu nodded, carefully folded the oiled paper and pinched it in the palm of his hand, "Have you practiced the knife today?"

"Practice, I practiced for a while while I was waiting for you here," Qi Yue's legs were finally not so numb, she withdrew her hand and rubbed her cold fingers, "When I was young, my grandfather told me that after death, people will Fly to the sky and become a star to protect the family on the ground. When you miss them, look up at the night sky. The brightest star you see is the person you miss the most.”

On a night in late autumn, there is only a lonely moon in the night sky, and occasionally a few scattered stars give off a faint light.

Qi Yue looked at the night sky, the faint light of the stars fell in her eyes, feeling a little lonely.
