The next day, in the afternoon.
Huai Shi was lazily lying in his office, flipping through the documents in front of him that basically only needed his signature. Once again, he felt the emptiness and boredom of life.
Suddenly, he bid farewell to the exciting adventure life, started to make money, and went to the peak of life … It seemed that there was only downhill to go after that.
It was okay for a day or two, but after a long time, he began to feel the itch.
He owed it.
"How can this be the end …" Huai Shi looked up at the sky and sighed.
The secretary couldn't help but shake his head. "You must be joking, Mr. Huai Shi. Everyone hopes that such days will never end."
Huai Shi was about to speak when he heard a knock on the office door.
Downhill looked serious. He walked in and was about to speak when he saw that the secretary didn't say anything. The secretary got up and went out on the pretext of making tea.
"What's wrong? Why are you so serious?" Huai Shi looked up from the sofa.
"Boss, the people from the dojo are here."
"Oh, let them come." Huai Shi shrugged. "Danbo didn't set up any checkpoints or roadblocks. They can go around if they want …"
Downhill coughed. "They are here for you."
"What for?" Huai Shi smiled curiously. "Are they here for me to participate in the knife hunt?"
"They sent someone to ask if we had anything to do with yesterday's incident. They are very arrogant." Downhill said gloomily, "If you ask me, this kind of groundless thing …"
His words were interrupted by Huai Shi.
The young man on the sofa slowly got up and said seriously, "But we did do it, didn't we?"
"…" Downhill was stunned.
Huai Shi spread his hands. "Since you did it, then do it openly and seriously. There is no need to hide the head and show the tail. Just tell them that I asked someone to do it. Isn't that enough?"
He was the one who said that the disciple should take care of the master when he had something to do and send the student to participate in the knife hunt.
It was impossible for him to fall out with the student now that the student had some achievements, right?
"I arranged it." He said, "No need to talk nonsense."
"…"
After hesitating for a long time, the foot of the mountain lowered his head and said, "They … they want us to hand over the perpetrator and bring him back to the training hall."
In fact, the description at the foot of the mountain was already very polite.
The arrogant attitude of the visitor was no longer the attitude a guest should have. Instead, it was as if the visitor had come to condemn someone from a higher position. There was a lot of impoliteness in his words as well. His arrogant and bossy manner had crushed many people's teeth.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a person at the foot of the mountain who could see the big picture, Huai Zhi's group would probably have fought with all their might.
Huai Shi, on the other hand, was still eating melon seeds, full of confusion.
There was only a crisp sound in the room.
"In my opinion, the word 'accident' is used very strangely." Huai Shi calmly asked, "Did my student do something against the rules?"
The people at the foot of the mountain were stunned and speechless.
He didn't know how his boss's brain worked.
What did he do that was against the rules? What did he do that was against the rules from the beginning to the end …
What Little Hut in the Woods did yesterday had already spread throughout the entire Yingzhou. It could be said that his reputation had spread far and wide. Who knew how many warriors from training halls regarded this as a great shame.
It was simply the biggest scandal since the establishment of the training hall.
If it weren't for Huai Shi's noble status that couldn't be belittled, who knew how many people would have come knocking on his door.
It could only be said that newborn calves were not afraid of tigers. The people of the Lin family all had the talent to offend people to death.
And without a doubt, Little Hut in the Woods was the most outstanding one.
After combining the two specialties of the Lin family and his teacher, he began to surpass his teacher …
After swindling more than a thousand swords in front of the gate of the training hall, he patted his butt and went home, leaving behind an old teapot that had been soaked in a cesspool for several months.
It was as if he had danced an entire New Treasure Island right under the nose of the Sword Sage.
The image vividly showed the way the words' reckless' were written.
Hearing Huai Shi's words, not to mention the people at the foot of the mountain, even the two so-called training hall messengers waiting outside the gate suddenly turned livid with anger. They almost pulled out their swords to shame their master.
"But the problem is, they didn't say that it was impossible!"
Huai Shi patted the melon seed in his hand and asked with an innocent face, "There have been so many cases of people being beaten up, drugged, and even robbed of their swords in the Immortal Jump. They didn't care about any of them. Why would they care about my child?
Besides, weren't they very good at playing this trick in Ikedaya House back then? Oh, I forgot, the people who were killed in Ikedaya House back then seemed to be students of the training hall … You say, it's been so many years, why don't they remember? They're too stupid and gullible to blame us, right? "
"Enough is enough, Your Excellency Huai Shi! “
The middle-aged warrior behind the door tightly pressed the hilt of his sword and roared angrily, "To what extent are you going to humiliate us!"
"I'm just stating facts and reasoning. Is that called humiliating?"
Huai Shi retorted coldly, "My student accepted the swords personally handed over by the disciples in front of the gate of the training hall according to the rules of the Knife Hunter Association.
Which rule, which section, or which section of your rules state that no one is allowed to wander around your gate? "
As he spoke, he raised his eyes. His gaze seemed to penetrate the door and fell on the faces of the people behind the door. He solemnly and seriously told them:
"If my student has violated any rules, the training hall can tell me. I will punish him severely without mercy.
But if you want me to hand over my student for some groundless reason, then why don't you just ask me to kowtow to the Sword Saint and beg for forgiveness … "
Huai Shi said, "Anyway, isn't the effect the same?"
"…"
In the silence, the middle-aged warrior angrily pulled out his sword, but his wrist was tightly pressed by his companion beside him. The sharp sword could not be unsheathed.
Beside him, the younger warrior nodded and responded respectfully, "Your criticism is right. Today, we were rash. When we go back, we will pass on your words word by word."
In this way, he watched the two leave.
Huai Shi could not help but sigh and looked at the corner.
"It's all because of you, Teacher Luo …"
In the shadow of the corner, an old man appeared out of nowhere. He looked like he had just returned from working out, with a wet towel on his shoulder.
He was sweating all over.
He was looking at him sideways.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Elder Luo asked, "I didn't ask your kid to court death in front of the Sword Saint Gate … If you ask me, your student is exactly the same as you. At least in terms of courting death, he has the tendency to surpass his teacher."
"Even without Little Nineteen, isn't the result the same?"
Huai Shi rolled his eyes.
Yuan Yuan, an outsider, had trampled on the faces of so many disciples of the dojo to make a name for herself. Would the dojo let this go?
Not to mention that the dojo was petty, if someone from the Luming Hall came to the Dan Bo Inner Circle to participate in the Extreme Dao Union Meeting and told Huai Shi that he wanted to fight ten people, Huai Shi would feel disgusted.
What are you trying to do, stinky little brother?
Do you really think I'm dead?
Elder Luo's orders and actions were equivalent to triggering the friction between Danbo Inner Circle and Yomi-no-Kuni in advance. It made the two strong neighbors, who were close to each other, realize the threat of each other.
Not to mention whether Little Nineteen had broken the rules of the training hall or not, just his exaggerated result of 1200 rounds was something that the training hall would never tolerate or acknowledge.
The people who came today to ask him to hand over Little Nineteen was merely a test.
He wanted to figure out whether this was Huai Shi's idea or whether the hut in the forest was acting recklessly. At the same time, he wanted to save face and force Huai Shi to bow to the Taoist Sanctum.
Even if he did, Huai Shi wouldn't be able to get anything out of it.
What's more, Huai Shi didn't have the habit of treating his students as cannon fodder.
After today, it would be difficult for the two sides to coexist peacefully.
But Little Nineteen couldn't help but be stubborn this time. It was time for the student to become famous. As a teacher, how could he stop him?
Compared to this, he was more concerned about Elder Luo's purpose.
"You're so happy to stir up trouble between Danbo Inner Circle and the Taoist Sanctum … What do you want to do?"
Huai Shi pinched his chin and looked at the old man in front of him, "Don't tell me you're going to fight with the Sword Saint?"
As soon as he said this, he was amused by himself.
But Elder Luo didn't laugh.
Instead, he looked at Huai Shi calmly.
"Yes," he said.
"…"
Huai Shi's whole body was numb, and he was stunned, "Really?"
"Of course it's true. Would anyone joke about this kind of thing?"
The old man asked doubtfully, "I remember, didn't you ask me who was stronger, the Sword Saint or me? Now you're scared. This isn't your style. "
"Nonsense, I have a big family now. How many people depend on me to make a living? Would I dare to be reckless?"
Huai Shi couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Besides, I'm not afraid that Danbo Inner Circle can't beat the Taoist Sanctum. I'm afraid that you can't beat the Sword Saint, okay?"
Back then, Elder Luo punched his own teacher into the abyss. He was happy, but in the end, his own path of ascension was broken, and there was no possibility of advancement.
No matter how strong the Lactic Acid Accumulation Supreme was, it was useless if you couldn't beat the opponent.
On the other hand, the Sword Saint had been famous for hundreds of years, a fifth-grade legendary figure, and there were many experts among his disciples … In Yingzhou, it was a colossus on the level of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. Just the Taoist Sanctum alone was comparable to two mountains, almost like Shaolin and Wudang.
On the other hand, Elder Luo couldn't have more than one Jinlun Fawang!
Huai Shi was at most a Da 'erba …
What was this old man thinking in his head?
But the biggest problem now was that if he insisted on doing things his own way, Huai Shi couldn't change his mind.
The only thing he could do now was to quickly invite Xianlai Buddha …
Elder Luo looked up and glanced at him, knowing what this guy was thinking, "Xiaoxian should have gone to Lop Nur these two days, and she should be arriving in India soon … There's no signal on her phone, you don't have to contact her anymore."
"So you came at the right time?!"
Huai Shi was dumbfounded.
After a long silence, he finally couldn't help but hit the table in anger.
"I say, Teacher Luo, this is not right." He frowned and asked, "If you want to arm wrestle with the Sword Saint, you can just call me. If you lose, you can go back to Dongxia and I can go back to the Astronomy Club, we still have a bright future. But why are you involving so many people now? "
Once the conflict got out of hand, there would be no room for reconciliation between the Taoist Sanctum and Danbo Inner Circle.
When the time came, the collision between the two colossi would cause a lot of waves, and it would definitely not be a good thing for Danbo Inner Circle.
Huai Shi did all she could to pull them out of hell, but it wasn't for her to lead them to their deaths.
"Don't worry, I won't touch your baby."
Elder Luo glanced at him, "I don't have the habit of asking others to help me fight. At most, I'll just use you to say hello at the Knife Hunt.
Do you think he doesn't know that I'm in the capital?
I'm afraid that the tricks of the Lin family are under his nose, but he still came back in one piece, didn't he? "
The old man picked up the thermos and sipped a mouthful of protein powder.
"Don't panic, he wants to thank you."
Thank him?
Huai Shi was so angry that he laughed.
Rather than expecting the Sword Saint to thank him, he'd rather kill the Golden Dawn!
However, less than two hours after the old man finished speaking, the messenger of the dojo came again in a hurry.
Instead of his previous arrogance, he respectfully presented the three invitations.
All of them were handwritten by the Sword Saint!
The thin invitations seemed to be very heavy. With Huai Shi's almost no calligraphy skills, he couldn't see the beauty of the calligraphy on them.
But at least he could recognize what was written on them.
As if nothing had happened, the Sword Saint Shangquan warmly invited Huai Shi and his two extraordinary disciples to attend the celebration banquet.
He even acknowledged the achievements of Forest Hut and Yuan Yuan!
He personally appointed Yuan Yuan as the first place of the Knife Hunt trial!
Although Forest Hut wasn't ranked as the first place because of her lack of sword skills, she was only ranked behind Yuan Yuan. He even praised her courage …
Huai Shi held the invitations, turned them upside down, turned them over, and looked at them with a magnifying glass, but he didn't understand what the Sword Saint meant.
He only saw three words written in between the lines: "Thank you for your support!"
"See, I was right, right?"
Elder Luo laughed strangely, "You don't need to bleed or sweat, you just need to sit, listen to the music, eat and drink well, and finally take the gifts and leave. Maybe they'll send you directly to the door and welcome you next time!"
With that, he picked up the thermos flask and walked away while humming a song.
Huai Shi was left alone in the same place, stunned.
He didn't understand …
What were these two old men doing!
