Sword Demon Shinto

Chapter 52 I'm Actually a Taoist Priest
On Surabaya, a flat boat slowly moved forward. The boatman sang the song of bamboo wormwood, which echoed in the sky. Several young people were playing and laughing. Lin Xuan lay on the boat, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The way of cultivating the mind is to calm down with everything, the heart blends with the heaven and the earth, and understand the yin and yang. .

"Hey, look, this villager is still carrying two swords, isn't he selling swords?"

Several young people turned their attention to Lin Xuan again, Lin Xuan opened his eyes and smiled at them.

"Boy, show us your sword."

"No." Lin Xuan shook his head, protecting the scabbard, looking like a baby, and several people burst into laughter.

"Aren't they just two broken swords? They look like treasures. Show me them. Maybe we'll buy them for you if we're happy. You don't need to go all the way to Huaiyang County. Do you understand this deal?"

"Not for sale." Lin Xuan's answer was only two words, without any detours, concise and clear, and several young people froze for a moment.

"Boy, don't you have a brain problem?" The puffy young man smiled and looked Lin Xuan up and down.

"Gao Yuan, don't say it. Once you say it, I think this villager really looks like a fool."

The thin-faced young man said, taking advantage of Lin Xuan's "not paying attention", he snatched a scabbard behind Lin Xuan.

"Haha, I got it. This villager treasures this sword so much. I want to see what kind of sword it is."

"Quick, Gao Jian, pull it out and have a look." Several other young people shouted, Lin Xuan squinted his eyes and did not stop him.

"Chila!"

The swords were unsheathed, and several young people were stunned. After a while, there was a burst of wild laughter, which lasted for a long time on Surabaya.

The dark sword body, the front part has been broken off, the rust is mottled, and there is a circle of ghostly symbols on the sword body, the whole is terrible.

"Boy, this is your sword. Where did you dig it out? You're killing me."

"Just your broken sword is not worth a single copper ingot. I wouldn't even take it if you gave it to me for free. I think you'd better go back to your village and don't come out to embarrass yourself."

Gao Jian sneered, danced twice with the corpse-removing sword, and then threw it to Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan took it with a smile and continued to hold it in his arms. The young people disdainful, but they stopped making fun of Lin Xuan. Maybe they thought It's no fun bullying a villager.

"Boatman, you have been doing this crossing business on Surabaya all year round. Do you know what happened in Huaiyang County recently?" Gao Yuan asked the boatman, and the other young people also looked at the boatman.

"Several ferries, there is still some distance between Surabaya and Huaiyang County. My news is also from some ferries, but it may not be accurate."

"It's okay, let's talk about it, we can just take a rough look." Gao Yuan said, rather politely.

"I heard from some passengers that His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the General's Palace, disappeared and was suspected of being kidnapped by the Emperor Yan. The General Wang was furious, and the entire Huaiyang County was in a state of tension. Millions of Zhennan troops approached Yandu. Emperor Yan and the Great General Wang made an appointment to fight Ten Thousand Mountains, and the first battle became a mystery, and it is said that both sides suffered losses."

"Probably that's it. Gossip, half-truths, don't take them all seriously."

The boatman said a lot in one breath, and after he finished speaking, he let out a breath and looked at a group of young people. The group of young people looked at each other in astonishment, then fell silent, and asked the boatman again: "Boatman, do you know that there are people in Huaiyang City? A Gao family, how is their situation?"

"The Gao family? I haven't heard of it, but you don't have to worry. My place is too far away from Huaiyang City. It's normal if I can't get any news. Since it's a big family in Huaiyang City, nothing will happen."

"The Gao family?" Lin Xuan was puzzled, and had a little impression that it seemed to be a second-rate family. Looking at a few people who seemed to be relatives, could it be that the so-called Gao family left behind their grandchildren.

"Boatman, you really don't know?" Gao Yuan and a group of young people were a little worried and asked.

"I really don't know, maybe you can ask other passengers, maybe someone knows." The boatman responded, and several young people cast their eyes on Lin Xuan after hearing this. There were still a few pickle leaves on it, and a few people were taken aback, turning their heads in disgust.

The boat continued to move forward, Lin Xuan closed his eyes, and lay on the stern with big characters, eating pickles and peeling roasted sweet potatoes, looking leisurely and carefree, while several young people frowned and looked nervous.

"Brother Gao Yuan, what should we do if something happens to the Gao family? Da Jin can't go back. Are we going to be homeless?"

"No, the Gao family is a famous family, and with the blessing of the Great General Wang, it will not be so easy for accidents."

"But……"

"No!" Gao Yuan shouted, a group of young people were startled, and then fell silent. Lin Xuan glanced at it and laughed it off.

"Boy, what are you laughing at?" Gao Jian shouted at Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, but he just smiled. It's interesting how he provoked them.

"I didn't laugh."

"Nonsense, I saw you smile just now."

"I really didn't laugh. It's because you're overly nervous and you've got your eyes peeled. What's so funny about your crap."

Just as Lin Xuan finished speaking, a group of young people looked at him together. Lin Xuan was taken aback, and realized that he accidentally slipped his mouth.

"Um, I mean that auspicious people have their own appearance. Looking at their faces, they must be rich and powerful. Thanks to your blessings, the Gao family will be fine. I swear by half my life's experience that I am not lying."

"Half life? Do you have half life?" Gao Jian shouted.

"I've lived for 500 years, and I plan to live another 500 years, so it's called half my life." Lin Xuan laughed, sat up from the boat, no longer pretending to be a villager, twisted his fingers, and put on a magic stick.

"Who are you?" Gao Yuan asked in a deep voice, looking at Lin Xuan with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

"Fortune teller." Lin Xuan grinned and replied.

"Aren't you a villager?"

"I never said that."

"Then your sword?"

"This sword is really a treasure. I call it the Invincible Sword in the World. If you understand its secrets, you can be invincible in the World."

"Nonsense!" Gao Yuan said angrily, only feeling that Lin Xuan was playing him, the sword flashed, and he drew his sword to stab him.

"Benefactor, the ancients said, put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha immediately. If you swing your sword at me, you will be punished by heaven."

As soon as the words fell, a big fish suddenly appeared in the water. The big fish churned and splashed all over the sky, splashing on Gao Yuan's body.

"Almsgiver, monks don't tell lies, and they are dedicated to goodness. They can ascend to the ground and become a Buddha on the ground. Once they do evil, they will be thrown into the extremely evil hell and suffer endless torture. Almighty, do you know?"

"Aren't you a Taoist priest?" Gao Yuan shouted at Lin Xuan, the sword in his hand was trembling, and he dared not swing it at Lin Xuan, perhaps because he was afraid, the big fish appeared suddenly just now, it was too weird.

"Monks and Taoists belong to the same family. How can we tell them apart? Donor, you are too persistent. Do you know how to adapt to anything?"
