After the two of them ran, Jin Guoyi brought Xu Yun back to the Yan School through the back door.
He lived in seclusion in the backyard of the Yan School and did not ask about anything else. In Jin Guoyi's eyes, once a martial artist left the martial arts world, he should leave completely.
Moreover, the School of Flying Daggers had almost reached the point of extinction. No one would take flying daggers seriously.
The domineering style of the Yan School of Flying Daggers a hundred years ago was no longer there. Flying daggers not only required talent, but also physical fitness.
If it was a gun, one could become a sharpshooter with bullets as long as they kept practicing. That was why the School of Flying Daggers declined so quickly. This was no longer the era of cold weapons.
Now, flying daggers were mostly used in acrobatic groups. Only in games like darts and roulette could they be used as flying daggers masters.
It was indeed a pity, but the truth was the truth. No one could change anything, and no one could stop the progress of society.
Flying daggers seemed to be more like a non-material cultural heritage.
Jin Guoyi struggled to support the last School of Flying Daggers of Hua Xia. Perhaps one day, when the Yan School was gone, there would be no more flying daggers for Hua Xia.
Xu Yun looked at the four treasures of the study in Jin Guoyi's room and smiled. "Mr. Jin, you are very knowledgeable about calligraphy. The preface to the Orchid Pavilion on the wall was also written by you, right?"
"Haha, yes, it's a one-to-one imitation." Jin Guoyi said, "How is it? It's not bad, right?"
"It's more than not bad." Xu Yun said, "With your level, you can beat the members of the Calligrapher's Association."
"I'm not interested in the Calligrapher's Association." Jin Guoyi said, "It's just a name. It's easier to sell the calligraphy. I write for myself and cultivate my character. "
Xu Yun gave him a thumbs up. "Mr. Jin's current level is probably not something that ordinary people can catch up with."
Jin Guoyi waved his hand and said modestly, "I'm just entertaining myself. I don't dare to belittle myself."
The two of them discussed calligraphy for a while. Jin Guoyi asked someone to prepare some tea for them. After that, Jin Guoyi took out a Go board and the two of them played a game.
Jin Guoyi was a professional eighth level expert. Although Xu Yun didn't have any rank, he was still someone who had the ability to lead the overall situation.
Jin Guoyi gave Xu Yun three moves, and in the end, Xu Yun still lost the game. Xu Yun had no choice but to concede defeat to Jin Guoyi.
Very quickly, the morning passed.
At noon, Jin Guoyi had people prepare some simple and light dishes. The person Xu Yun wanted to meet also arrived at Jin Guoyi's place on time.
A spirited young man pushed open the door and entered. He bowed respectfully to Jin Guoyi, "Master, are you looking for me?"
"I'm not looking for you. Someone wants to see you." Jin Guoyi smiled, "Jin Hong, this is Xu Yun. I don't know if you still remember?"
Jin Hong. Xu Yun looked up at him. He didn't know his name before, but Xu Yun could still recognize him by looking at his face.
Jin Hong saw Xu Yun and suddenly realized, "I remember, of course I remember!"
"It's been a long time." Xu Yun smiled slightly. This long time was really too long.
"Sit down." Jin Guoyi said to Jin Hong.
Jin Hong sat down, "It's indeed been a long time. I really didn't expect you to come here. Master, I remember that the last time Xu Yun came was when I just arrived here. I haven't been accepted as a disciple yet. "
Jin Guoyi smiled, "Yes, it's been a long time. You have all grown up. Young people should communicate more with young people. "
"Yes." Jin Hong nodded. He was a very well-behaved person in front of Jin Guoyi.
Xu Yun stood up with the excuse of pouring tea for Jin Guoyi. When he walked around Jin Hong, he glanced at him.
The tattoo on the back of Jin Hong's neck was still there!
Xu Yun didn't remember wrongly. It was the pattern of the Seven Stars!
"How can I let a guest pour tea? Let me do this." Jin Hong quickly got up and took the teacup in Xu Yun's hand.
Jin Guoyi smiled, "I won't disturb you young people talking here, right?"
"How can that be?" Xu Yun said, "It's the blessing of us young people that Mr. Jin can give us a few pointers in front of us."
"You know how to talk. You should teach Jin Hong more. His mouth is much stupider than yours." Jin Guoyi said, "Come, I don't encourage anyone to drink, so let's use tea as wine. Everyone, let's toast together."
The three drank tea and ate, and the conversation was very congenial.
"Mr. Jin, now that Jin Hong is here, I want to ask you a question. I don't know if I should say it." Xu Yun found an opportunity to cut to the chase.
Jin Guoyi was in a good mood, so of course he agreed. "Of course you can say it. You don't have to be so restrained in front of me."
"Then I hope Mr. Jin won't be angry about what I say." Xu Yun said again. He felt that it was better to be cautious.
Jin Guoyi nodded. "Okay, go ahead."
Xu Yun took a deep breath and organized his words. "Old Mister Jin, I would like to know more about the seven great families of the Seven Star Radiance."
When Xu Yun opened his mouth, Jin Guoyi froze.
"I know that this might be something you don't want to talk about. If I asked you just now, you would definitely refuse to answer. But now I can tell you that I know about the Seven Stars tattoo … Obviously, you must know about the Seven Great Families. " Xu Yun said. He had almost told Jin Hong to come because of the Seven Star Radiance pattern on the back of his neck.
Jin Hong also stopped what he was doing. He could understand all of this.
"Jin Hong, you can leave first." Jin Guoyi said indifferently.
Jin Hong didn't finish his meal. He got up and bowed. He said goodbye to Jin Guoyi and Xu Yun and turned to leave.
Xu Yun wanted to say something, but when he saw Jin Guoyi's expression, he could only swallow what he wanted to say.
Only after Jin Hong left completely did Jin Guoyi set his gaze on Xu Yun.
This gaze was clearly angry. Xu Yun didn't dare to look at Jin Guoyi. He could only lower his head. "I know what I did was wrong, but …"
"No need to explain." Jin Guoyi said, "What's said is done. There's nothing to explain."
Xu Yun didn't say anything else. Jin Guoyi's expression became more and more ugly.
"Xu Yun, if I knew that you came here for this purpose, I would have closed the door and refused to see you today." Jin Guoyi said, "I don't want to talk to you about the Seven Great Families. If you still treat me as an elder, then leave now."
"Old Mister Jin, I'm really in trouble. I need help, so I came to find you." Xu Yun said, "I have a girl with me. She's from the Jiang Family. Because of the Seven Stars tattoo on the back of her neck, I remembered that I saw this tattoo on Jin Hong's body ten years ago! "
Jin Guoyi's expression became even uglier. "Why would someone from the Jiang Family appear by your side? How did you get involved in the dispute of the Seven Great Families? "
Xu Yun didn't mean to hide anything. He knew that if he wanted to figure something out, he had to be honest first.
"The Empress asked me to protect this girl." Xu Yun said, "At first, I didn't know anything at all. I just learned about the Seven Great Families. But now, I can't contact her, so I have to find a way by myself."
When Jin Guoyi heard this, he growled angrily, "Nonsense!! Zuo Lengyue is not a child. How could she do such a thing? "
"She said that my Xu Family owed the Jiang Family, so I had a reason to help," Xu Yun said.
Jin Guoyi was stunned when he heard this. It seemed that he didn't deny this point.
