Qin Lang and Tang San were of the same age. Once they found a common topic, they quickly became familiar with each other. Coupled with Qin Lang's appropriate flattery, the two of them soon had a feeling of recognizing a hero.
After some understanding, Qin Lang found out that Tang San was originally a student of Summer City Third High School. He usually kept a low profile and only occasionally took on a few assassination jobs. This was also the lifestyle of many Tangmen disciples – they disguised themselves with their ordinary identities, but in fact, they were powerful assassins.
In this regard, Qin Lang could completely understand, because he and Tang San both had identities that could not be seen in the light.
"So, you like Xiao Li Flying Dagger, so you chose the flying dagger as a hidden weapon?" Qin Lang asked.
"Yes, the consequences of being hot-blooded and impulsive."
Tang San said with a bitter smile, "When I was a child, I watched the Xiao Li Flying Dagger on TV and thought that the flying dagger was the most powerful hidden weapon, so I chose a flying dagger manual and practiced it for two years. In the end, unfortunately, I found that the flying dagger was not the most powerful hidden weapon. Those kids around my age could kill me with a Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe or a mechanical crossbow. This made me very annoyed, and I felt that I had practiced for two years in vain. "
"Oh, it's completely understandable. The flying dagger was originally a very common hidden weapon, and certainly could not compare to a 'killer' like the Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe. By the way, does Tangmen really have the Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe? " Qin Lang asked curiously. The Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe was the legendary Tangmen hidden weapon. It was said that as long as the firing switch of the syringe was pressed, 27 silver needles would be ejected. When the silver needles shot out, it was as gorgeous as a pear blossom.
The Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe was known as a killer in ancient times, and only the assassins of Tangmen would be equipped with such a killer weapon.
"Not only do they have it, but the Torrential Pear Blossom Syringe is just a child's toy in Tangmen. In this era, firearms are so fierce. If our Tangmen's hidden weapons didn't improve, we would have been wiped out a long time ago, don't you think? "Tang San said.
"That's true." Qin Lang nodded in agreement. The times were progressing, and the people of the Jianghu had to follow suit. Otherwise, they would only be eliminated by the times. The reason why Tangmen had been able to stand tall until now was obviously not because they were living off their past achievements. In other words, Tangmen's hidden weapons and assassination techniques had also kept up with the times. "By the way, since you realized that your flying daggers were not as good as other hidden weapons, why did you still choose to use them? Could it be that the appeal of 'Little Li Flying Dagger' is that great? "
"It's not because of Little Li's Flying Dagger, but because of a Tangmen senior."
As Tang San spoke, his expression was lost in his memories. "Back then, I practiced flying dagger for two years. I lost to my peers in a martial arts competition, which really annoyed me. That day, I went to the river alone and threw stones out of boredom. I didn't know when, but there was another person next to me. He picked up a stone and threw it into the river. Then, I heard a 'pop' sound, and a wave burst on the calm river surface. Then, I saw a fish that weighed more than a kilogram come out of the river with its belly up. "
"To be able to hit a fish in the water with a pebble, this person is not simple." Qin Lang thought, but he knew that there must be more to this matter, so he continued to listen to Tang San.
Sure enough, Tang San paused for a moment and then continued, "Then, I heard another 'pop' sound, and then another fish came out of the water with its belly up. Then, every time the man threw a stone, a fish floated to the surface of the water. His stones seemed to have eyes. I remember that he threw a total of twenty-two stones, and twenty-two fish came out of the river. Then, among the twenty-two fish, twenty-one sank into the water again. "
"Huh? They sank into the water again? "Qin Lang asked in surprise," Did these fish not die? "
"That's right!" Tang San had a look of admiration on his face. "Later, I found out that he just knocked these fish out with stones. Only one died because he didn't control his strength well. At that time, he shook his head and sighed, 'I still want to eat fish. When my heart itches, my hand won't listen to me.'"
"It's at least ten times more difficult to knock a fish out with a stone than to kill a fish!" Qin Lang also had a look of admiration on his face. To be able to use ordinary pebbles to such an extent, it was quite amazing.
"Isn't that so? So, at that time, I guessed that he might be a senior master of Tangmen, so I asked for his name. However, he just shook his head and said that he didn't have a name. He just liked to throw stones. Because he had been throwing stones for fifteen years, any stone in his hands could become his killing weapon. I knew that he was giving me advice, so I asked him why I still lost to my peers after throwing knives for two years. I thought he would tell me some profound truth, but he only told me a very simple sentence. "
"What sentence?" Qin Lang was also very curious.
"He said that you should try throwing knives for another ten years. If you still lose to your peers after ten years, you should throw the stone at his head." Speaking of this, Tang San suddenly laughed. "Because of what he said, I continued to practice my knife throwing skills. In fact, after another year, I won against my peers. Later on, I became more confident in my flying daggers. Now, I can already release forty-eight flying daggers in a very short period of time — "
"Wait a minute — you just said you can release forty-eight throwing knives in a very short period of time?" Qin Lang looked at Tang San in astonishment, "Then when you exchanged blows with me just now, why didn't you use it? If you released forty-eight knives at once, maybe you would have won. "
"But our bet was only three knives. If I released forty-eight knives, even if I hurt you, I would still lose the bet, "Tang San said.
Qin Lang didn't expect Tang San to keep his promise, and he admired him a little.
At this time, the snakes and insects around the top of the mountain had dispersed. Qin Lang knew that it was not suitable to stay here for long, so he said to Tang San, "The snakes and insects have dispersed, and there are likely to be other people here. Let's leave here first. In addition, I want to clarify again that the rumor about me being a Tangmen was not spread by me. I don't want to continue to be chased by the Tangmen. If I meet the Tangmen master you mentioned, I won't be able to handle it. "
"Don't worry, Uncle Fifteen won't trouble my friend." Tang San said with a smile, "It's just that the person who spread the rumor really deserves to die!"
"That guy is obviously trying to get someone else to do his dirty work," Qin Lang said. "Moreover, he has succeeded in getting you to do it."
"Killing with a borrowed knife?" Tang San suddenly snorted coldly, "Then you have to be careful of the borrowed knife killing yourself! I analyzed it, and these rumors should be spread by the people of Wolong Hall. "
"How do you know?" Qin Lang was surprised.
"The four fellows I killed earlier were from the Crouching Dragon Hall." Tang San said faintly, as if he didn't care about the lives of others. "It's just that these four idiots don't know much, so they can't say who ordered them. But it doesn't matter. When I kill a few more people, I should be able to figure it out. "
"No, you can't do this." Qin Lang shook his head.
