The Fragrant Wood Swordsman
pk 02 part 8

For a moment Kiang Tojin looked at Keng Hong in surprise, then he bowed respectfully to Sian-jiu Kiam-ong and said, "Apologize to Sie-taihiap (the great swordsman of She Sie) if any of the pinto and brothers disturb. The presence of many kang-ouw companions in Kun-lun-san we can still let them remember that they were Taihaip's guests, Just the presence of three Bu-tek Sam-kwi we really can't let go. Black grandfather figures like them have no right to pollute the earth Kun-lun! Please get familiar and forgive pinto who came for fulfilling the temperature command."

Sin-jiu Kiam-ong laughed, and took a deep breath. "Thian Seng Cinjin was very patient, very praiseworthy." Then he turned to the nine figures who were bothering him and said, "What if you nine people still do not want to leave immediately, I won't consider you as guests anymore and it's up to Kun-lun-pai's side to assume you how."

Kiang Tojin turned his body to look at the nine, his forehead frowned and he said, his voice was full of authority and buzz. "Among the cu-wi (gentlemen) there are figures of major martial parties, of course quite know the sovereignty of the host. Cu-wi came without telling Kun-lun-pai, this meant a violation of sovereignty and not looking at us. Truly we cannot be said to be outrageous if forced to expel cu-wi."

Kiang Tojin's attitude is very cool and the nine people already know who this tosu, understand that in addition to the level of intelligence is very high, the level of science is very high, also the Kiang Tojin brothers who numbered thirty and had locked up the place was a power that could not be resisted by those who were already wounded. Not to mention reckoned that Thian Seng Cinjin, the head of Kun-lun-pai himself, is coming!

So after yelling and muttering apologetic words, they immediately turned their bodies and left the place. Because they are intelligent people, their movements are so fast that in the blink of an eye the place becomes silent and their shadows are no longer visible.

Kiang Tojin had already saved back his sword, though, imitated by his brothers who remained standing away because they were all figures who respected the king of the sword who once gave his mind to Kun-lun-pai. It happened a dozen years ago when Kun-lun-pai was invaded by heretics led by a high-scientific, heretical grandfather, so Kun-lun-pai suffered a great disaster and threatened his position.

All of Kun-lun-pai's figures, including Thian Seng Cinjin, have been pushed back and only after Sin-jiu Kiam-ong who coincidentally heard of this raid came to his aid, did he, then the enemy could be driven away and the heretical grandfather was killed at the hands of Sin-jiu Kiam-ong and Thian Seng Cinjin. Sin-jiu Kiam-ong is then considered a helper and is allowed to use Kiam-kok-san, a place that was once considered sacred by the Kun-lun-pai group because it used to be their sanctuary.

"Kiang-toyu, please tell your teacher Thian Seng Cinjin, that I ask for his permission to extend the use of Kiam-kok-san for a few more years, he said, or more precisely until my death because I wanted to use the rest of my age to galvanize this student of mine." Sin-jiu Kiam-ong groped the head of Keng Hong who had been kneeling since when he saw Kiang Tojin and his brothers appear.

Kiang Tojin and his brothers were stunned to the sound of shocked and astonished exclamations.

Sin-jiu Kiam-ong furrowed his brows and looked at his eyes turning disappointed. During his life he always carried his own will and did not care about the rules of others, however, towards Kun-lun-pai he felt uneasy and he knew very well that if indeed this child was a disciple of Kun-lun-pai, it would be very bad if he forced and took it as a disciple, he said, no matter how much he likes this kid. He then lowered his head and asked Keng Hong.

"Hong-ji (son of Hong), are you really a son of Kun-lun-pai's disciple?"

Keng Hong was astonished, confused and also secretly feeling tense when suddenly he was appointed disciple of Sin-jiu Kiam-ong, made heir to the extraordinary grandfather. However, a strange feeling made his heart become big and happy and there was a determination in his heart that he had to become a disciple of this grandfather, had to become a clever man in order to face the evil humans, he said, especially hypocritical humans that are found in this universe. Now hearing the conversation between his helper tosu and Sin-jiu Kiam-ong, he quickly said,

"No, I'm not Kun-lun-pai's student! Now I work as a lackey in Kun-lun-pai, but I am not his student at all and have never studied silat in Kun-lun-pai!"

"Kiang Tojin's! what does this contradictory statement mean?" Sin-jiu Kiam-ong turned to the tosu with eyes full of reprimand.

"Sorry, hope Taihiap likes to listen to pinto explanations. Pinto did not say at all that Keng Hong was the son of Kun-lun-pai's student, but simply said that he was Kun-lun-pai. Taihiap should know that this child came from a hamlet hit by a robbery, his entire family was destroyed and by chance pinto was able to save him and then take him to Kun-lun-pai. At first we wanted to make him a disciple of Kun-lun-pai, but we were banged by the new rules. Not long ago the temperature made a new rule that every student of Kun-lun-pai should be a follower of the To religion. Because Keng Hong did not want to be a tosu candidate, he has been in Kun-lun-pai for two years and worked as a maid. However, we have considered him as his own person."

"Hemm, that? Then, he is not the son of Kun-lun-pai's disciple, just a lackey, there is no obstacle for me to take him as a disciple. Ehhh, Kiang-toyu, do you mind if I take a student?"

"Where is the pinto brave, Taihap? It just depends on the boy himself. Keng Hong, pinto has saved you from disaster. Do you not remember and want to leave pinto? Do you really like being Sin-jiu Kiam-ong's student?"
