On the training platform at the island's public square.
Even though it was drizzling, drenching everyone's clothes, it couldn't stop the passion of the spectators.
Almost all the people on the isolated island had come.
"I heard that this guy is a godly thief?"
"That's right. He has stolen many good things before and ended up in the hands of people from the Dragon Subduing Academy. Both of his legs were broken."
"Then why is he still alive and kicking?"
The shock of ordinary people wasn't as intense as that of the prison guards. One must know that these prison guards would often see Yu Lin when they were patrolling.
Yu Lin would often use some small benefits to tempt the prison guards to make things easier for him, such as bringing some food, changing his bedding, getting a few books, or even letting him out for a walk.
Because Yu Lin's legs were broken, it was impossible for him to run. Therefore, when the prison guards saw that he was perfectly fine and fighting evenly with Sun Mo, they were all stunned.
"I thought that Sun Mo's God Hands were already very amazing. Now that I've seen Yu Lin, I know that I've underestimated him."
Ji Han was convinced.
It was no wonder that the Qi King wanted to become sworn brothers with Sun Mo. If it was her, she would also want to do the same. With Sun Mo's protection, anyone would be able to enjoy the healthy body of a young man until they died of old age.
Bang!
Yu Lin was sent flying by the wooden blade, but he didn't feel annoyed. On the contrary, he laughed loudly and climbed up, pouncing toward Sun Mo again.
"Awesome! Awesome! "
Yu Lin flew up happily. "Again!"
Golden pages, like pieces of Mario's head, kept bouncing off his head and drifting into the air.
Sun Mo had profited greatly this time.
Yu Lin wasn't only skilled in stealing, but he also knew geomancy. He was a top-notch grave robber and had dug up the graves of many amazing people.
After the battle ended, Yu Lin put on the shackles and walked toward the prison.
"Teacher Sun's blade skills are truly magnificent!"
Yu Lin grabbed his crotch. His hands were itching and he wanted to steal.
"Someone like you can actually become a great teacher?"
Sun Mo was very curious.
"My father was a teacher in a private school. When I saw the children coming to visit with gifts during the holidays, I was envious of him and hoped that one day, I would become someone like my father."
Yu Lin sighed. "I worked very hard. When I was in school, I slept the last and woke up the earliest. Even when I was eating, I was reading. But when it came to exams, I was still beaten by those geniuses."
"Later, I gradually understood that no matter how hard I worked, I would never be able to catch up to those rich kids with rich resources."
Sun Mo's lips twitched. "So you became a thief?"
"The improvement brought about by a top-notch cultivation technique is just too great. I've practiced for half a year, but I can't even compare to three days of others. During that period of time, I felt that my entire life was meaningless, because the end of my life was the starting point of others."
Yu Lin smiled bitterly. "I was unwilling, so I began to think of ways to steal their cultivation techniques."
"Yu Lin, you've never lived your entire life. How do you know that your ending point is someone else's starting point?"
Sun Mo looked at Yu Lin. "Do you look down on yourself so much?"
"Mn?"
Yu Lin was stunned. Every time he brought up this topic with others, the other party would either sympathize or look down on him for wanting to take a shortcut. However, no one had ever said such a thing before.
"It's true that there are very few people who can start from scratch, but it doesn't mean that there aren't any."
In the modern era, Sun Mo had seen such a person. He was a child born in the countryside and had established his business empire. Although everyone had received the discount coupons, they were still unwilling to call him Brother Dong. However, no one would deny that he was a genius.
"You're denying yourself too early."
Sun Mo sighed. "I've seen many children who came from poor backgrounds, but they still didn't give up. Yu Lin, it's not a problem to feel sorry for yourself occasionally. But I hope to see you guys putting in more effort after complaining."
"So what if others are born with the best equipment? Wouldn't you feel a greater sense of accomplishment if you crushed them with a plain body? "
Bzz!
Priceless Advice was activated.
The golden light illuminated the gloomy prison and ignited Yu Lin's heart.
"Once you stop working hard, you'll definitely lose!"
Sun Mo closed the prison door. "But as long as you continue on, there's a possibility of winning."
Yu Lin was stunned.
"I think your father should be the most disappointed that you've become like this. He won't be able to rest in peace even in the netherworld."
Sun Mo left.
Yu Lin sat on the ground, paralyzed. He suddenly felt that he had walked on the wrong path in this life.
How good would it be if he could encounter Sun Mo when he first stole!
...
Yu Lin was really full of stuff. The number of pages Sun Mo had typed was 15 times more than Liu Xiurong's, and he wasn't done yet.
However, he had to put aside the sparring temporarily because he had to look for Hu Xingjiang.
"Let's go!"
Hu Xingjiang didn't waste any words. He brought Sun Mo to the seventh level of the prison.
Half an hour later, the two of them stood in front of a prison cell.
Hu Xingjiang opened the door and walked in.
"Teacher Hu!"
Sun Mo called out because he could smell a dense deathly aura here. This thing could affect one's consciousness.
"Given your capabilities, it can't be that you can't even resolve such a small problem, right?"
Hu Xingjiang's voice was calm.
Sun Mo had no choice but to follow him in.
The room wasn't big. Other than a bed, there was nothing else. Hence, it appeared very spacious.
On the bed, there was an old man draped in a white blanket. His hair was sparse and messy like bird feathers. His face was very dirty, and there were two holes where his eyes should be. Clearly, his eyeballs had been dug out.
His ears were cut off, and his mouth and cheeks were also slashed open. It was a tragic sight to behold.
"Teacher Hu, this is..."
Sun Mo frowned, feeling a little disgusted. Even though this prisoner was draped in a blanket, Sun Mo could tell that his body was incomplete under the blanket.
Other than his torso, he was probably only left with half a left hand.
Swoosh!
Hu Xingjiang lifted the blanket.
Sun Mo immediately shifted his gaze away.
F * ck!
This person was really too tragic. In the Han Dynasty, it was said that Empress Lu had invented a kind of torture called human swine. The person before him wasn't much different from human swine.
"Didn't you say that your God Hands can regenerate flesh and blood?"
Hu Xingjiang's eyes revealed sorrow. "Can it be treated?"
"This prisoner doesn't have any will to live at all. He's waiting for death!"
Sun Mo wanted to leave this place. As someone who didn't dare to watch horror movies, he couldn't stand such a scene.
"Let's go out first!"
Hu Xingjiang covered the prisoner with a blanket and then walked out. "Don't misunderstand. His injuries are a form of atonement for his sins."
Sun Mo didn't reply and waited for Hu Xingjiang to continue.
"He was originally a person of virtue and prestige, having a great status and glory in the great teacher world. However, one day, a few personal disciples he admired the most betrayed him. They took the chance when he was giving a lecture far away to burn and plunder, massacring his entire clan. They even raped and killed his most beloved daughter."
Hu Xingjiang sighed.
"..."
Sun Mo covered his ears. This was too f * cking tragic.
