C158 He Didn't Try to Curry Favor with the Old Man

The old man slowly opened his eyes and looked at this strange place, as if a long time had passed. The old man tried his best to recall what had happened before he fainted.

Yes, that youth whose name he didn't know carried him onto the horse. After running for a long time, he seemed to have fallen asleep or passed out. And then, there was nothing after that. . .

"Yes!" The old man originally wanted to stretch out his hand to remove the blanket covering his nose, but just as he exerted his strength, he felt a sharp pain on his shoulder.

"You're awake!" A familiar voice came from beside his ear. The old man was asking for his reputation. It was the young man, Lin Yuchen. He was fiddling with something on the table. The current Lin Yuchen had removed the human skin mask, and he looked like he had seen him for the first time.

"You finally woke up. Did you know that you have been unconscious for three days and three nights?" Lin Yuchen said again, "I was thinking about whether I should bury you alive. Luckily, you're awake. "

"Thank you so much. I have wasted so much of your time. " The old man smiled and said, "Did anything happen during these past few days?"

"No. " Lin Yuchen replied with a puzzled expression, "I was wondering about it too. I thought that they would be wanted all over the city, but after entering the Chengdu City, I found out that there wasn't even a single notice. Furthermore, I've been staying in this inn for three days, but I've never heard of any search activities. Don't you think it's strange?"

"They wouldn't dare. "

"Ah? They wouldn't dare? Why? "

"The less you know about this matter, the better it will be for you. No, it's impossible for them to let you go. You should pack your things and return to Ghost Thief's Mansion as soon as possible. " The old man said. He endured the intense pain all over his body and slowly propped himself up.

"Hey, don't get up. You need to rest well now. "

"It's fine. Besides, I don't have time to rest. " The old man was shocked as he spoke. He looked at Lin Yuchen and asked, "Did you lose your inner energy to me?"

"Oh, you don't have to thank me. This. . . "

"You even treated my wound?" The old man stared at Lin Yuchen with his aged eyes.

"Don't be so excited. Although we haven't known each other for long, we have at least gone through life and death together. So, this is what I should do. "

"Who asked you to touch me!" The old man shouted angrily.

"Ah?" Lin Yuchen was dumbfounded by the old man's words. Why did it sound so awkward? "You're not a girl, and you're already so old. Why are you still so fussy about this? Oh, I got it. Is it a taboo for your famous family? It's like some Persian girls wear veils. "

"What a mess. You don't have my clothes?" The old man looked around and his tone became much calmer.

"Of course, I wanted to check if there were any other wounds on your body. But your hand was holding onto your clothes, refusing to let go. In the end, I had no choice but to give up. I only treated the wounds on your shoulder and calf. Oh, I got it. " Lin Yuchen suddenly became excited when he said this. He looked at the old man and said, "Don't tell me you think that I am taking advantage of your coma to take advantage of you? I'll steal your things. "

"That's right. "

"You, you still say yes! " Lin Yuchen was so angry that his nose was crooked. "Hey, you really measure a gentleman's heart with a petty person's heart. You are asking me to waste so much inner energy in order to save you. "

"That was unnecessary!"

"You, you are simply digging your own grave, destroying the bridge after crossing the river. "

"Then are you that donkey or that bridge?"

"I. . . " Lin Yuchen could not help taking a deep breath to calm down his anger, but he smiled instead. "You are called a dog biting Lu Zijing. You do not know what is good for people. Aye, you do not need to ask. I am that Lu Zijing. "

"Humph!" This made the old man laugh, "Your Han culture is truly profound and profound. "

"You're not bad either. You speak so well in Han. Furthermore, there are many Han people who know things better than me. Hey, why are you up? Where are you going? "

" I'm going to look for someone. " As the old man spoke, he had already put on his shoes and tidied his clothes.

"You need to rest well now, your injuries. . . "

"You are already so old, yet you are still waiting for your death here. You might as well do something that you should do, 'A man's death is more important than Mount Tai, or it is lighter than a feather'. This is what you Han people said. Also, don't follow me. Otherwise, you will die for nothing. "

" A man dies for the one who knows himself. A woman is tolerated for the one who likes her. " Lin Yuchen smiled and stood up. "It's the same as what I said just now. "

"He said, 'A scholar dies for the person who knows himself, and a woman dies for the person who likes her. ' You said Yu Rang, one of the four assassins of Spring and Autumn. Yu Rang didn't end up well. "

Lin Yuchen couldn't help but frown when he heard that. "Why do you know everything?"

"Know yourself and know your enemy. Only then can you fight a hundred battles without being defeated. "

"What do you mean?"

"You don't need to understand. " Saying so, the old man quickly walked towards the door.

"Hey hey hey, wait a moment. "

"What else do you want? Do you have to give up your life?"

"No, no, no. I just want to say that your clothes are full of blood stains. Moreover, it's broken and rotten. It will be too conspicuous if you wear it out. I bought you some clothes and they are on the bed. Do you want to change them? "

"Thank you. " The old man turned back to the bed. He looked at Lin Yuchen and stopped. "Turn your head around. "

"Huh?"

"I'm doing this for your own good," the old man said.

"Alright, alright, alright. Why don't you use the cloth to cover my eyes first?"

"As long as you're not afraid of death, you can look however you want. "

"I. . . Forget it, forget it. You can slowly change it. When you're done, let me know. I don't know what kind of mysterious thing it is, it is so shameful. . . "

This time, the old man ignored him and allowed Lin Yuchen to talk to himself alone.

While Lin Yuchen was talking, the old man had already changed his clothes. He walked to Lin Yuchen's side and looked at the table full of bottles and jars. He could not help but be curious. He took a bottle and asked, "What are you placing here? Medicine?"

"Don't move!" Lin Yuchen turned pale with fright when he saw the old man act in this manner. " Don't move. It was poison, a deadly poison!"

"What?"

"The bottle in your hand is the Soul Catcher Incense that Lau Chengfeng gave you last time. Once you touch it, you will be harmed. If you don't have the antidote, you will die in less than six hours, bleeding from all seven of your orifices. "

"These are what you have given me these past few days?" The old man casually put down the bottle of Soul Catcher Incense.

"There are plenty. Some of them aren't. It's like this bottle of Soul Catcher Incense was brought out from the Ghost Thief's Mansion. "

"What?! You're saying that you've been carrying this on your back all this time?"

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Then why didn't you use it when you were fighting with the Bad People group?"

"Didn't I give you the antidote? If you use it, they will definitely die. . . "

"You!" Upon hearing this, the old man immediately became furious. "Are you really the disciple of a bunch of thieves?"

"Ah!"

"How famous are your teachers? Why did they raise a disciple like you? Sigh!" The old man sighed again as he spoke. "Don't tell me you haven't killed anyone yet?"

"This?"

"It's true? Could it be that they only taught you martial arts?"

"Didn't I always stay in Ghost Thief's Mansion? I just came out not long ago. I don't think I have the chance. "

"Then you should hurry back to your Ghost Thief's Mansion. " The old man said sternly, "This place isn't suitable for you. " After saying that, he lifted his Wolf Head Blade and left the inn.

Only Lin Yuchen was left sitting at the table in a daze.
