Chapter 20
"interesting."
Gu Nianfeng was not moved by Zheng Dongting's words, as if in his ears, this was just something that could arouse his interest a little bit.
Some people say that a lie to the extreme is deceiving oneself.
Gu Nianfeng didn't agree. In his opinion, if the deception deceived himself, then the fake would actually become the truth, and it would no longer be a lie...but the truth.There is a complete divide between the fake and the real, the fake is always fake and the real is always true.They cannot coexist!
In Gu Nianfeng's world, he isolates and separates the real from the fake, and never mixes them.
If he is good to Zheng Dongting, then Zheng Dongting wants to touch his truth, just looking for abuse...
Gu Nianfeng jumped down from the tree, glanced at Zu Beiqiu under the tree, showed his usual gentle smile, and said, "Take care of your brother, don't let him get overwhelmed."
"..." Zu Beiqiu looked blank, and wanted to ask Gu Nianfeng what he meant, but Gu Nianfeng had already walked away.
"Senior brother?" Zu Beiqiu turned his head and found Zheng Dongting standing behind him, excitedly said, "Senior brother, I think this is a bit strange. Although Lian Daxia admitted to killing Master Guan Siyu, the nine-turn soul-returning knife Where did it come from?"
"Huh?" Zheng Dongting was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't reacted, his eyes looked in the direction where Gu Nianfeng disappeared.
"Senior brother?" Zu Beiqiu grabbed Zheng Dongting's shoulders and shook Zheng Dongting desperately, "Senior brother, senior brother, are you okay? You...don't let yourself get overwhelmed..."
"Who can't think about it?" Zheng Dongting gave Zu Beiqiu a sharp look, "Don't shake it, I'm already fainted by you!"
"Brother, are you alright?" Zu Beiqiu asked with concern, "Isn't it because Gu Daxia rejected me... I... I have been put as a pigeon by Qiu Tong for ten years, haven't I regained my strength?"
"Can you stop comparing things between you and Luo Qiutong every time?" Zheng Dongting looked serious.
Zu Beiqiu muttered: "I don't think it's bad..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!" Zheng Dongting didn't want to hear Zu Beiqiu continue to bring up Gu Nianfeng's matter, he was a little irritable, and waved his hand, "What were you talking about before?"
"Let me say, even though the hero admitted to killing Master Guan Siyu, where did the nine-turn soul-returning knife come from?" Zu Beiqiu had to repeat.
Zheng Dongting was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said in shock, "Yes, if Lian Daxia killed Master Guan, who killed the nine-turn soul-returning knife Ye Duanhun? With Guan Siyu's martial arts, how could he stand against Lian Daxia?" The Tianshan swordsmanship still has enough power to kill Ye Duanhun. What's more, even the hero's actions are to make an enemy of the Taihang Village, so how can he join hands with Ye Duanhun to fight against the enemy."
"Unless Lian Daxia kills Master Guan and Ye Duanhun at the same time." Zu Beiqiu analyzed.
"You mean Master Guan and Ye Duanhun teamed up to kill Hero Lian? Could it be that Master Guan invested in Taihang Shanzhai?" Zheng Dongting was terrified by the conclusion he had drawn.
"I didn't say that, I think it might be one of the possibilities. We can only find out what happened at the scene of the crime." Zu Beiqiu said in a low voice.
The Xuzhou sub-duo is sparsely populated at the moment, only a few disciples of the low-level Guanzhong Sword Sect are guarding the Juyi Hall and Guan Siyu's mourning hall in the sub-duo, and the other disciples have already gone to the Xuzhou night market to enjoy themselves.
Seeing Zheng Dongting and Zu Beiqiu approaching, the leader disciple of the gatekeeper frowned, and said loudly: "Hey, isn't this Mr. Zheng Butou and Mr. Zu? It's so late, what are you doing here if you don't go to rest? "
Zheng Dongting cupped his hands at him: "Brother, we feel that there are still some details of Guan Ye's murder case that have not been clarified, so we came here specially to investigate, brother, please be more accommodating."
"Hey, I was there when you closed the case today. You explained the ins and outs of the case in detail, and our brothers in Guanzhong admired it very much. The murderer has been found out, so why do you want to investigate?" the leader asked with a frown road.
Zheng Dongting thought for a moment, and of course he didn't dare to tell about his suspicion that Lord Guan and the Taihang Shanzhai teamed up. He just said: "Master Guan is so powerful in martial arts, but he was stabbed to death by Lian Qingyan's sword. It's unimaginable. I want to see it again." Let's see if there are other murderers helping each other secretly." Having said that, he walked forward with a smile, and held a Tianyi Pill in front of the leader's disciple, "It's a small thing, it's not a respect."
Although the leader's disciple is low in seniority, he is a man of knowledge, and he was overjoyed when he saw this: "Captain Zheng is too polite, you are arresting suspects for my Guanzhong Sword Sect, how could we turn you away, just as Gu Daxia is also investigating the situation , the two of you please! Please check as you please, don’t worry.”
"Why are you here?" When Gu Nianfeng saw Zheng Dongting, he was not so much puzzled as he was thinking about something, showing all his thoughts.
At this moment, it has been a while since Guan Siyu was killed, and there have been several groups of martial arts people from all over the country who have come to express their condolences.
The original bloodstains in the Juyi Hall were roughly cleaned by the disciples of Guanzhong, and even if there were any traces left, they were already blurred after being trampled by countless people.
"Gu Daxia, I think Lian Daxia may have done nothing wrong. Guan Siyu may have joined forces with the Taihang thieves." Zu Beiqiu said immediately.
"I know." Gu Nianfeng smiled faintly, "Even Junior Brother has such a temper that he doesn't bother to lie about this kind of thing."
"Right, so my brother and I have a look..."
"The murder scene is already a mess, and nothing can be seen." Zheng Dongting squatted down in vain, and looked at the pools of blood that were so shallow that they were almost invisible.
"Don't worry about it, there are knife marks on the wall, and the party's three swords have come." Gu Nianfeng affirmed, "There, the village owner of the second village in Nantaihang started with three swords, two swords were shallow and left and right, and one sword was deep. Facing the door, he used this trick to pick out one of Baili Zhan's eyes that day."
"Dang Sandao really came to the scene? This is even more unreasonable. It is impossible for Guan Siyu to kill Ye Duanhun under the watchful eyes of the king of hell with a knife. Ye Duanhun must have died in the hands of Lian Daxia." Zheng Dongting stroked said with a chin.
"Besides, Dang Sansao was very flustered when he wielded the sword." Zu Beiqiu said again.
"Are you a half-immortal? Do you know how people feel about using a sword?" Zheng Dongting asked with a frown.
Gu Nianfeng said: "Brother Zu is right. It is impossible for these three sabers to leave a full three saber marks on the wall. If one saber misses, you should withdraw the saber in time. He didn't even think about using the three sabers in one breath, which is showing that It shows that he is extremely afraid of the opponent, and he can't wait to make a contribution with one blow."
"Who can make Dang Sandao so fearful, Guan Siyu? No, it must be Lian Daxia." Zheng Dongting murmured, "He heard Lian Daxia's laughter that day and couldn't help running away. Now face to face Dare to fight, even the hero has Guan Siyu next to him, where did he get the courage. There is only one possibility——Guan Siyu had already betrayed at that time."
Gu Nianfeng glanced at Zheng Dongting, shook his head and said indifferently: "Dongting, this is just your wishful thinking. These Taihang Mountain swordsmen may have come to ambush Guan Siyu, but who knows, they saw Junior Brother Lian clashing with him and killing him with a sword Die. They want to fish in troubled waters, so..."
"Brother, Gu Daxia, footprints...footprints!" Zu Beiqiu, who had walked all the way to the east wall, suddenly exclaimed in a low voice excitedly.
"Footprints?" Zheng Dongting was shocked.The entire Juyi Hall is paved with hard bluestone, and a footprint can be stepped on this kind of ground, unless it is done by a master of the inner family.Thinking of this, he quickly ran to Zu Beiqiu's side: "Where is it?"
"Here, there are many!" Zu Beiqiu pointed at his body and whispered.
Zheng Dongting squatted down and followed what he pointed to, and there were indeed several footprints of different shades on the ground.
"This pair of shoes has the largest prints and an astonishing size, and the cuts on the bluestone slabs are very sharp. They were stepped on by official boots. These are Mr. Guan's official boots." Zheng Dongting pointed to a large footprint and analyzed.
Gu Nianfeng approached slowly and looked up.
"Look at these half footprints, they penetrate two inches into the bluestone slab, and the soles are ferocious. They are Xie Gong boots popular in Nanwudao." Zu Beiqiu said, "Yizhou people love this shoe the most for mountaineering."
"This is either Ye Duanhun's footprint, or Dang Sandao's." Zheng Dongting clasped his hands together.
"This is Ye Duanhun's footsteps. His martial arts is the worst among the four, so his internal strength cannot be retracted freely, and most of his strength is wasted on the soles of his feet." Gu Nianfeng said with his footprints.
"Or, this is the place where he was killed by the sword, so his true energy was released, and this shoe print several inches deep was printed." Zu Beiqiu said.
"You know?" Zheng Dongting asked in disbelief.
Zu Beiqiu and I walked half a step forward, came to the east wall, touched the wall, and said: "Brother, there are still faint bloodstains here, and the distribution of celestial maiden flowers is just above the shoe prints, you see .”
Zheng Dongting straightened up and came to the east wall, and took a closer look. Just as Zu Beiqiu said, there was an oval-shaped pool of blood on the wall, and all kinds of blood droplets spread radially up, down, left, and right, showing that Ye Duanhun was killed by someone. A sword pierced through the chest and was almost nailed to the wall.
"En..." Despite the reluctance in his heart, Zheng Dongting had to admit that his junior brother's observation ability was indeed much stronger than him.
"Guan Siyu and Taihang Swordsman are indeed in the same group." Gu Nianfeng suddenly laughed.
"The shoe prints of these three people all have their toes facing west and their heels facing east. It shows that they are still standing side by side on the east wall, resisting their opponents together, and their opponents are standing opposite them. His shoe prints are on the here."
Gu Nianfeng took three steps slowly, pointing at the two shallow shoe prints in front
"That's right!" Zheng Dongting came to him and squatted down, "This is indeed the shoe print of Lian Daxia. Tianshan Sanqing Gong emphasizes perfection and self-sufficiency. Even in a bloody battle, even a hero can Control the direction of his true energy, and try not to waste a penny, so his shoe prints should be the shallowest pair. And..." Zheng Dongting looked at the shoe prints up and down, and his face became weird. "
"And what?" Zu Beiqiu asked curiously.
"Don't look at Lian Daxia, who is a world-famous hero, but he has a pair of unbelievably small feet, just like a woman." Zheng Dongting couldn't help laughing when he said this.
Gu Nianfeng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "A woman?"
How should I put it, Zheng Dongting has a keen sense...
"Um... I... just talking." Zheng Dongting coughed, "Well, so the actual situation of this battle is that even the hero alone is fighting against Guan Siyu, Ye Duanhun and Dang Sandao. people."
Speaking of this, his face gradually became solemn, "Even Daxia was able to pick Guan Siyu and Ye Duanhun with swords in the siege of these three people, and forced them to retreat three times. This record is as brilliant as his one on Tianshan West Road before and after the war.”
"That's amazing, as expected of Tianshan Yuexia." Zu Beiqiu said hastily.
"Then, I will trouble you, Brother Gu, to hand over these evidences to the Guanzhong Criminal Hall." Zheng Dongting straightened up and said in a deep voice.
"Why should I notify them?" Gu Nianfeng's expression was very flat, he was still smiling, his smile was shallow, with some unreal warmth, but his words were light and indifferent.
"Lian Daxia is innocent." Zheng Dongting was stunned for a moment before replying.
Gu Nianfeng seemed to hear something happy: "It's very dangerous. I don't know how many accomplices Guan Siyu has wandering around in Jijiu League. I don't need to take risks for this, and there is no benefit."
Being selfless and indifferent, this is Gu Nianfeng. I really want to see how far you will give up?
"Then let's talk about it ourselves!" Zu Beiqiu said seriously.
"It's useless. Guan Siyu is the leader of the Guild. Do you think they will believe what the two of us say? Only when disciples from Tianshan, Shaolin and other sects conduct investigations can anyone believe it." Zheng Dongting smiled wryly.
At this moment, a turbulent sword light suddenly fell from the ceiling of Juyi Hall, covering the two of them head-on.
In a critical moment, Zheng Dongting pushed Zu Beiqiu away, turned around and lay down on the ground, barely avoiding the sharpness of the sword light.But there was still a long bloody gash under his ribs.
"There are assassins!" Zheng Dongting yelled loudly, while a carp bounced up from the ground.
The assassin in front of him was dressed in black, with a black scarf on his face. Hiding in the shadow of the hall, he seemed to have melted into the darkness. Only the sharp sword in his hand was like the fangs of a ferocious beast, aggressive.
Before Zheng Dongting had time to gain a firm foothold, the black-clothed assassin pounced on him like a cheetah, and with a flash of frost blade in his hand, he grabbed his throat.
Although Zheng Dongting is good at light body, he is not as fast as a sword after all, not to mention that his ribs are injured, it is more difficult to move, and he is about to be pierced by a sword.
At this moment, Gu Nianfeng's sword came out of its sheath, the light of the sword was as cold as jade, and the assassin's weapon was thrown away with one sword.
Gu Nianfeng changed hands and used the Tianshan sword technique "a line of stars breaks through the Chu Heavenly Realm".
The man in black recognized him very well, quickly withdrew his sword, and dodged the blow far away with a backflip.
"There are assassins!" Zheng Dongting lifted Zu Beiqiu's fat body on his shoulders and shouted loudly.
The sonorous voice attracted the Guanzhong disciples on duty in the courtyard.Several disciples from the Xuzhou sub-rudder brandished long swords, shouted aggressively, and surrounded the assassins.
I saw the black-clothed assassin spun around quickly, and the long sword danced a round of dazzling discs.There were only a few crisp ding ding ding ding sounds, and the long sword in his hand was broken into scrap iron before the disciples who surrounded him had time to dance their swords.
"Run!" The Guanzhong disciples simply didn't stop, turned around and ran away quickly.
"Let's go!" Wuxin got entangled with this person, Gu Nianfeng shouted directly at Zheng Dongting, and then used lightness kung fu to leave here.
Zheng Dongting carried Zu Beiqiu on his shoulders and followed
The night wind was blowing, and the dim lights of Xuzhou city were continuous, forming an endless river of light in Zheng Dongting's eyes.If it is in normal times, performing lightness kung fu and running around at night amidst the lights of thousands of houses, such a stream of light is the most eye-catching.
But at this moment, Zheng Dongting has no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery galloping in front of him, and he is absolutely unwilling to stop at all, let alone waste his energy shouting for help, so he can only jump silently from the roof of one house to another. He is a household, and specially chooses a road that seems too weird and unpredictable in the eyes of ordinary people to run away desperately.
Zheng Dongting's lightness kung fu is the most brilliant lightness kung fu in the Jianghu, but with a weight of two hundred catties on his body, it is really difficult to use this swallow-like lightness to the extreme.And although the lightness kung fu performed by this assassin is not as famous as Yanzi Feiyun, it is still one of the best stunts in the world, and it is wishful thinking to get rid of him.What Gu Nianfeng showed on the surface was Tianshan's lightness kung fu, which was not bad, but it was similar to that person, so he had to stick to the situation first.
Either start fighting now, or get rid of it.
Between exposing martial arts and exposing lightness kung fu, Gu Nianfeng chose to expose lightness kung fu.
"Get down!" Gu Nianfeng commanded neatly
Zheng Dongting didn't even think about it, he stepped on the roof under his feet and fell into the residential house below him.
Gu Nianfeng also fell into it.
The assassin who was following him straightened his feet, stood firm on the house, and pointed his sword down, covering the whole house under his aura induction, but did not rush into Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting immediately. into the hole.He was obviously still a bit afraid of Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting's abilities, fearing that they would suddenly use killers in the room and catch him by surprise.
Gu Nianfeng directly found a quilt from the bedroom of the folk house, and quickly said: "Put down Zu Beiqiu, and resist the quilt!"
Zheng Dongting immediately followed suit, Zu Beiqiu had just learned lightness kung fu not long ago, and he couldn't escape at all, so he might as well use blindfolds.
After a while, the man in black made sure that there was no murderous agitation in the house, and then he pierced his feet, preparing to break down the house like Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting.
At this moment, there was a loud cracking sound of the door panel.I saw that the door panel of this folk house was smashed by a strong force, and Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting, who were carrying things, galloped towards the black forest in the distance.
"Hmph!" The black-clothed assassin snorted coldly and followed.
Just like the jungle, the speed of the two of them has increased.
"No! He is carrying a fat man weighing two hundred catties, how can he move so smoothly between the branches?" Thinking of this, the black-clothed assassin's heart was shaken, his true energy turned turbid, and he fell down from the tree involuntarily. .
At this time, Zheng Dongting, who was standing on the treetop, turned around and sneered, "Why, did you find something wrong?"
The assassin shook his long sword, raised his head, his eyes flashed red, obviously hated.
Zheng Dongting threw the "Zu Beiqiu" on his back to the ground.I saw the clothes on "Zu Beiqiu" fluttering away, leaving only a quilt with gaudy patterns inside.
"Hey, at first glance, you haven't read much. You don't need to think about the Four Books and Five Classics. Have you heard of the 36 Strategies?" Zheng Dongting asked sarcastically, "Do you know how to write the words 'crossing the sea'?"
The black-clothed assassin suddenly came to his senses, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the residence just now.
Gu Nianfeng jumped away directly, faster than before.
"Guess if you can still catch up with us now?" Zheng Dongting said one more word, and then his whole body disappeared into the air like a gray-black lightning bolt, blending into the boundless night.
The assassin was about to raise his legs to chase, but he couldn't even see the figures of the two of them, so he had no choice but to hold back his steps.
Zheng Dongting has no doubts about Gu Nianfeng's lightness skills, he has learned to keep a certain amount of silence in front of Gu Nianfeng.
"Brother, where are we going?" Zu Beiqiu obediently stayed where he was, huddled there, and was relieved until he saw Zheng Dongting.
"Let's talk about it in another place." Zheng Dongting comforted his poor junior.
Gu Nianfeng has been silent all this time, he finally found that he has always been different to Zheng Dongting.He seemed to be expecting something from Zheng Dongting.That's why he deliberately challenged Zheng Dongting's limit time and time again.He would reveal his true side to a person for no reason, which is enough to explain many problems...
In his subconscious mind, Zheng Dongting is different.
The sword of the man in black just now made him forget to think, and he directly struck away...
Gu Nianfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking lazily at Zheng Dongting.
It's really weird, what's so special about it.
It can actually affect your own judgment.Except for a few teammates and good friends who were born and died in the previous life, no one can do it.
Gu Nianfeng chuckled, and he was actually shaken...
It turns out that I still have a heart, and that heart still has a soft part.
"Sorrowful autumn?" An exclamation came from behind, "And Gu Shidi and Zheng Butou?"
The three of them turned their heads and saw that it was Luo Qiutong.She still had several packs of medicine in her hand.
"Qiu Tong, why are you here?" Zu Beiqiu showed an excited smile on his face, hearing his call, Luo Qiutong's snow-white cheeks showed a slight blush.
"I thought he had survived it, but who knew that he still had a deep affection for you in his heart." Zheng Dongting shook his head helplessly, "Why is Miss Luo here?"
Luo Qiutong took a deep look at Zu Beiqiu, turned his head still determined and said: "Zheng Butou, to be honest, I came here to help Junior Brother Lian buy some medicinal materials for curing diseases."
"How is Junior Brother Lian?" Gu Nianfeng said slowly, he couldn't help but ask.
"After Junior Brother Lian was injured, fortunately he was discovered by Senior Brother Long, Senior Brother Zhao and I, and his injury was alleviated in time, but it still needs several medicines to eradicate the root cause," Luo Qiutong said in a deep voice, "They are now in a hundred miles outside Xuzhou The Crouching Tiger Forest is waiting for my news."
Gu Nianfeng pondered for a moment before opening his mouth and said, "Go and have a look."
The Crouching Tiger Forest in the southwestern suburbs of Xuzhou is full of pines and cypresses. When the night wind blows, the pines and cypresses are stirring, and the fallen leaves are rustling, just like a tiger howling. It walks through the forest, so it is called Crouching Tiger.Even in the daytime, the branches of the Crouching Tiger Forest cover the sky and it is as dark as dusk. At night, it is even darker and you can't see your fingers, just like a ghostly hell.
Lian Qingyan leaned on the solid pine tree branch behind her, panting heavily, Ye Duanhun, Guan Siyu and Dang Sandao's combination was not easy, he couldn't remember how to kill Ye Duanhun and Guan Siyu at that time of.
Everything in the Juyi Hall is like an unreal nightmare, which still makes him unbelievable: the chivalrous Guan Siyu suddenly betrayed, the Taihang Nanzhai who had been lurking in the South Five Roads raided Xuzhou, and Dang Sandao, who was advancing by leaps and bounds... The magic sword stunt, his current internal injury is caused by Dang Sandao's saber energy, so fierce in the East China Sea.
But none of these were enough to depress him. What depresses him is that Gong Tianying punctured his big plan to bet his name in the Gathering Hall today.
Gong Tianying has always been a cancer of the Tianshan School.Ever since he came up to the mountain, Lian Qingyan had seen that he had a strange heart, maybe he was not a thing in the pond.
But his father, Lian Zijie, the head of the Tianshan School, regarded this strange young man as a treasure, and despite his several times of persuasion, he finally taught him the best swordsmanship of the Tianshan School.
Even Qingyan knew that he would leave one day, but even he did not expect that Gong Tianying not only rebelled against the sect and betrayed his faith, but also wanted to sell all the unique knowledge of the Tianshan School to Yuenu Palace.
A heart-wrenching colic came from his chest, and several internal injuries that had been invaded by the saber qi broke out at the same time, as if several steel files were rasping the meridians in his chest.
"Who is it!" Zhao Heng, who was in charge of security, suddenly shouted loudly.
Two senior brothers from Tianshan are guarding Lian Qingyan.
"Brother Zhao, it's me and Brother Gu!" Luo Qiutong said loudly.
"Senior Brother Zhao, it's me." Gu Nianfeng appeared unhurriedly, he turned slightly sideways, and behind him Zheng Dongting and Zu Beiqiu also appeared.
Zheng Dongting coughed twice, cupped his hands and said, "Hero Lian."
Lian Qingyan suddenly said: "Brother Zheng, after all the previous events, I am not your brother Lian anymore?"
Zheng Dongting was taken aback, as if he had just realized that the name he called Lian Qingyan was no longer what it used to be.He didn't know how to answer, so he could only keep silent.
"Junior Brother Lian, can you tell me what's going on now?" Gu Nianfeng said seriously, no matter what, the role of the scene must be full.
"Senior Brother Long, Senior Brother Zhao, please let me, Senior Brother Lian, Brother Zheng, and Brother Zu be alone for a while." Lian Qingyan raised her head and said softly.
"Okay" The two didn't say much, took the medicine brought by Luo Qiutong, left with Luo Qiutong, and filed into the deep forest farther away in Crouching Tiger Forest.
"Brother Zheng, Brother Zu, I have never had a chance to say sorry to you." Lian Qingyan leaned against the giant tree.Reluctantly straightened up, and moved his body a little closer to Zheng Dongting, "Because of my plan that day, I am tired of worrying you and fearing that you have gone through so much suffering. It is my fault."
Zheng Dongting smiled wryly at Lian Qingyan: "You don't have to be polite even a hero, once you enter the rivers and lakes, even if you didn't have your plan back then, my life, Zheng Dongting, would not be much easier."
"Unexpectedly, Brother Zheng is much more open-minded than me, Lian is ashamed." Lian Qingyan was shocked, with a look of shame and approval in her eyes, she cupped her hands at him, "But why don't you call me Brother Lian anymore? Do you have any other dissatisfaction with me?"
Zheng Dongting silently glanced at him and thought for a while, then finally shook his head: "It's not something I can speculate on even a great hero's actions, and Zheng doesn't dare to speak out."
"Hero Lian, I think what you... did is really wrong!" Zu Beiqiu said in a daze.
"Why do you say that?" Lian Qingyan subconsciously straightened her body, and said in a loud voice: "People from the Seven Sects are full of martial arts, but they sit and watch the people outside the pass being slaughtered by the Taihang Village without helping them. If no one forces them to They will not do their best for the common people in their whole life. What is even more ridiculous is that they are unparalleled in their chivalry. Every day, they are self-indulgent in singing their own praises and gaining fame. I can arouse a trace of blood in these people and make them Why not do something good for the world?"
"Hero Lian, you shouldn't make all kinds of false appearances and mislead the disciples of the Seven Sects to join forces with the bandits of Taihang Mountain. Even if you want to save the common people outside the customs, even if you don't want any fame or reputation, it's really wrong to do so." Zheng Dongting Finally couldn't help but whispered, "You can't force people to act bravely, let alone be chivalrous. It's true that these people are doing nothing for fame and fame, but the crime is not fatal. You forced these pampered children of the big school to go to the Taihang Mountains and those who spend their days doing nothing. The Taihang bandits who take pleasure in killing people are desperate, what is the difference between killing their lives and making money? Even if they want to save the people of Li, it is unreasonable." Zheng Dongting slapped his chest hard and said excitedly, "If I were you, I would He will be like Gu Tianya in the past, single-handedly and single-handedly challenge Taixing, and make a great career."
Zheng Dongting said with emotion: "When I entered the rivers and lakes, I hoped that one day I could be a hero like Gu Tianya."
"Really? Your ideals are even bigger than mine. I entered the rivers and lakes and became a knight because of one person." Lian Qingyan showed an illusory smile on her face.
"Who is it?" Zheng Dongting asked curiously.
"I originally lived with my father in Tianshan Mountain, and practiced Tianshan swordsmanship since I was a child, but I felt disgusted with practicing swordsmanship in my heart. I never forgot to go down the mountain to find my mother who had been lost for many years. Ten years ago, I learned about my mother from a senior brother. However, that year the Turks were about to return to the country, and the Kunlun Demon Sect was flooding the customs, and the government was struggling to deal with it. The Taihang bandits took the opportunity to rise up and make trouble everywhere. I just met my mother who was recovering from a serious illness. We met each other, and before we had time to say goodbye to each other, we and a group of people were surrounded by more than a hundred elite thieves from Taihang Mountain. These butchers have already killed red eyes, no matter men, women, old or young. Of course my mother and I understand However, one of them is not proficient in martial arts, and the other has not regained his vitality. He is about to be beheaded by these Taihang masters. At this time, a young hero entered the battle group. He alone blocked the siege of more than a hundred people and protected us This group of people went all the way to the garrison of the state capital. Along the way, he killed dozens of Taihang swordsmen. He was covered in blood, and even his face was covered with blood. After getting out of trouble, my mother and I hurriedly wanted to find out his origin , Who knew that he lost his trace as soon as he turned around. Since then, I have made an oath to practice swordsmanship hard from now on, vowing to be a chivalrous hero like him. I think as long as I continue to be a chivalrous hero, one day I will be able to Meet him again. And then..." Having said this, a blush suddenly flashed across Lian Qingyan's face.
Gu Nianfeng knew that Lian Zijie had tried many times to match him up with Lian Qingyan, who was disguised as a man, so that they could inherit Tianshan together in the future.But Lian Qingyan has her own heart and never agrees.Gu Nianfeng didn't know about such a past until now.
"Ten years ago... Bingzhou..." Gu Nianfeng murmured in a low voice, he suddenly felt that this time and place were very familiar...
Lian Qingyan asked curiously: "Senior Brother Gu, what are you talking about?"
"We've been chatting for so long, can we talk about business?" Gu Nianfeng changed the subject and avoided answering.
"My junior brother and I visited the Juyi hall at night and found evidence that Guan Siyu and the Taihang swordsman joined forces to fight you. Has Guan Siyu betrayed?" Zheng Dongting asked in a deep voice.
"You guys actually found out? I thought this matter had been buried forever, and there was no way to prove it." Lian Qingyan said in surprise.
"Brother Gu found a series of shoe prints, and my junior brother found evidence from the footprints that the Taihang Swordsman and Guan Siyu had colluded. We were also attacked by assassins for this reason." Zheng Dongting said seriously.
"Assassin? Is there anyone else involved in this matter? As far as I know, Guan Siyu's betrayal just happened, and he hasn't had time to develop any party members." Lian Qingyan said softly.
"What? What's going on?" Zheng Dongting asked strangely.
"The reason why Guan Ye became the leader of the martial arts alliance and the head of the Guanzhong Sword Sect is inseparable from the strong support of the Luo family. He and the brothers of the Luo family are also life-threatening friends. Ever since I released the news of the Luo family's destruction, he thought he was in the martial arts world. The only force that supported him as the leader has died, and he must find a new force to support him."
"So he found the Taihang cottage?" Zheng Dongting asked in disbelief.
"Guan Ye has always been an ambitious person, and he is very ambitious. Taihang Shanzhai happens to be looking for an internal support from the Seven Great Sword Sects, and Guan Ye also needs a backer who can support him in competing for the position of the leader. The two groups hit it off and worked hand in hand. But I bumped into it when I was handing over the letter from the Luo family." Lian Qingyan sighed and said, "It's a pity that Guan Ye is good at martial arts, but he couldn't follow through on major events, so I killed him in the end. The matter of Guan Ye's betrayal , you must not speak out, this matter is very involved, and if you pursue it, you will only get deeper and deeper. The most important thing now is to take pictures of the assassin, otherwise no one will be safe. "
"Junior Brother Lian, don't worry, I will watch. You are seriously injured now, so you should take care of yourself," Gu Nianfeng said sincerely.
"What I have done is not completely worthy of my heart, and I will explain to the world at that time." Speaking of this, Lian Qingyan showed a resolute look on her face.
"I recognize that assassin." Gu Nianfeng whispered as if suddenly remembering something, "I fought him before, he is Gong Tianying!"
"Despicable!" Lian Qingyan said angrily, "He is so unscrupulous for the Luoyang Sword Discussion Conference!"
"What is the Luoyang Sword Discussion Conference?" Zu Beiqiu asked curiously.
"It's a gathering of young heroes in the Central Plains. It is held once every 12 years. Young masters from various sects compete with each other, and the best winner is selected as the master of swordsmanship. This is the most important ceremony in the Central Plains. The so-called crossing the dragon gate is worth a hundred times, once you become a master of swordsmanship, the whole martial arts world will know your name. Many martial arts people have dreamed of becoming a master of swordsmanship for generations." After introducing this grand event in the martial arts world, Zheng Dongting A thought suddenly popped up in his mind, "Wait a minute, is Gong Tianying going to use the Tianshan Yeluo Xinghe sword to argue with Master Jian? But he has already broken the gate wall of the Tianshan sect, and according to the rules of the world, he can no longer use the Tianshan sword technique."
"Hmph, this is the most infuriating part. In order to be able to use the Tianshan Yeluo Xinghe Sword to compete for the title of Master of Swordsmanship, he actually claimed in public that the Yeluo Xinghe Sword is not a sword technique of the Tianshan School, but a new method created by Yue Nugong. Swordsmanship." Lian Qingyan said in a deep voice.
"He... he actually said that!" Zheng Dongting said in surprise.
"The founder of the Yeluo Xinghe Sword was an elder of the Tianshan School, but that was already a matter of the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The Yeluo Xinghe Sword sword manual was lost in Kunlun Mountains with the death of an elder during the Zhenguan period. The Tianshan School has passed through generations. According to legend, it is a dictation of the sword formula. In the past ten years, because of the activity of the Taihang Lion King Duan Teng, many seniors who were good at using the Yeluo Xinghe sword were killed by him. Now only me and Lian Shidihui are left in the entire Tianshan sect. This set of sword techniques. Now that Junior Brother Lian is seriously injured and unable to use it, Gong Tianying just took this opportunity to declare to the whole Jianghu that the Yeluo Xinghe sword belongs to Yuenu Palace." Gu Nianfeng slowly explained.
"Isn't there still you?" Zheng Dongting looked at Gu Nianfeng and asked.
Gu Nianfeng said casually: "I'm not sure I can beat him. I have been competing with people in the arena, and I rarely divide life and death with others, and I don't even have the brilliant record of my junior brother."
"Jianling Jiuxiao Gong Tianying is now famous. Countless masters of swordsmanship have been defeated by his weird and unpredictable swordsmanship. The power of Yuenu Palace and the outer pavilion has expanded unprecedentedly, and the world is looking at him. This is a peaceful day in the Central Plains. After a long time, there are many scum who bully the weak and fear the strong. Seeing how powerful Gong Tianying is, they all waved their flags and shouted for him. He said what he said. These days he said that the Yeluo Xinghe Sword was created by the Yuenu Palace , If anyone refuses to accept it, use the Yeluo Xinghe sword to compete with him, and if he wins, he will admit that this set of sword techniques is not owned by Yuenugong." Lian Qingyan continued.
"That's not right. Doesn't this mean that whoever makes the best set of martial arts is the one who created this set of martial arts? Then, isn't it..." Zu Beiqiu protested.
"That's right, isn't it true that all martial arts in the world were created by our master, Mu Tianhou?" Zheng Dongting was indignant
Gu Nianfeng was not moved by Zheng Dongting's words, as if in his ears, this was just something that could arouse his interest a little bit.
Some people say that a lie to the extreme is deceiving oneself.
Gu Nianfeng didn't agree. In his opinion, if the deception deceived himself, then the fake would actually become the truth, and it would no longer be a lie...but the truth.There is a complete divide between the fake and the real, the fake is always fake and the real is always true.They cannot coexist!
In Gu Nianfeng's world, he isolates and separates the real from the fake, and never mixes them.
If he is good to Zheng Dongting, then Zheng Dongting wants to touch his truth, just looking for abuse...
Gu Nianfeng jumped down from the tree, glanced at Zu Beiqiu under the tree, showed his usual gentle smile, and said, "Take care of your brother, don't let him get overwhelmed."
"..." Zu Beiqiu looked blank, and wanted to ask Gu Nianfeng what he meant, but Gu Nianfeng had already walked away.
"Senior brother?" Zu Beiqiu turned his head and found Zheng Dongting standing behind him, excitedly said, "Senior brother, I think this is a bit strange. Although Lian Daxia admitted to killing Master Guan Siyu, the nine-turn soul-returning knife Where did it come from?"
"Huh?" Zheng Dongting was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't reacted, his eyes looked in the direction where Gu Nianfeng disappeared.
"Senior brother?" Zu Beiqiu grabbed Zheng Dongting's shoulders and shook Zheng Dongting desperately, "Senior brother, senior brother, are you okay? You...don't let yourself get overwhelmed..."
"Who can't think about it?" Zheng Dongting gave Zu Beiqiu a sharp look, "Don't shake it, I'm already fainted by you!"
"Brother, are you alright?" Zu Beiqiu asked with concern, "Isn't it because Gu Daxia rejected me... I... I have been put as a pigeon by Qiu Tong for ten years, haven't I regained my strength?"
"Can you stop comparing things between you and Luo Qiutong every time?" Zheng Dongting looked serious.
Zu Beiqiu muttered: "I don't think it's bad..."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!" Zheng Dongting didn't want to hear Zu Beiqiu continue to bring up Gu Nianfeng's matter, he was a little irritable, and waved his hand, "What were you talking about before?"
"Let me say, even though the hero admitted to killing Master Guan Siyu, where did the nine-turn soul-returning knife come from?" Zu Beiqiu had to repeat.
Zheng Dongting was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said in shock, "Yes, if Lian Daxia killed Master Guan, who killed the nine-turn soul-returning knife Ye Duanhun? With Guan Siyu's martial arts, how could he stand against Lian Daxia?" The Tianshan swordsmanship still has enough power to kill Ye Duanhun. What's more, even the hero's actions are to make an enemy of the Taihang Village, so how can he join hands with Ye Duanhun to fight against the enemy."
"Unless Lian Daxia kills Master Guan and Ye Duanhun at the same time." Zu Beiqiu analyzed.
"You mean Master Guan and Ye Duanhun teamed up to kill Hero Lian? Could it be that Master Guan invested in Taihang Shanzhai?" Zheng Dongting was terrified by the conclusion he had drawn.
"I didn't say that, I think it might be one of the possibilities. We can only find out what happened at the scene of the crime." Zu Beiqiu said in a low voice.
The Xuzhou sub-duo is sparsely populated at the moment, only a few disciples of the low-level Guanzhong Sword Sect are guarding the Juyi Hall and Guan Siyu's mourning hall in the sub-duo, and the other disciples have already gone to the Xuzhou night market to enjoy themselves.
Seeing Zheng Dongting and Zu Beiqiu approaching, the leader disciple of the gatekeeper frowned, and said loudly: "Hey, isn't this Mr. Zheng Butou and Mr. Zu? It's so late, what are you doing here if you don't go to rest? "
Zheng Dongting cupped his hands at him: "Brother, we feel that there are still some details of Guan Ye's murder case that have not been clarified, so we came here specially to investigate, brother, please be more accommodating."
"Hey, I was there when you closed the case today. You explained the ins and outs of the case in detail, and our brothers in Guanzhong admired it very much. The murderer has been found out, so why do you want to investigate?" the leader asked with a frown road.
Zheng Dongting thought for a moment, and of course he didn't dare to tell about his suspicion that Lord Guan and the Taihang Shanzhai teamed up. He just said: "Master Guan is so powerful in martial arts, but he was stabbed to death by Lian Qingyan's sword. It's unimaginable. I want to see it again." Let's see if there are other murderers helping each other secretly." Having said that, he walked forward with a smile, and held a Tianyi Pill in front of the leader's disciple, "It's a small thing, it's not a respect."
Although the leader's disciple is low in seniority, he is a man of knowledge, and he was overjoyed when he saw this: "Captain Zheng is too polite, you are arresting suspects for my Guanzhong Sword Sect, how could we turn you away, just as Gu Daxia is also investigating the situation , the two of you please! Please check as you please, don’t worry.”
"Why are you here?" When Gu Nianfeng saw Zheng Dongting, he was not so much puzzled as he was thinking about something, showing all his thoughts.
At this moment, it has been a while since Guan Siyu was killed, and there have been several groups of martial arts people from all over the country who have come to express their condolences.
The original bloodstains in the Juyi Hall were roughly cleaned by the disciples of Guanzhong, and even if there were any traces left, they were already blurred after being trampled by countless people.
"Gu Daxia, I think Lian Daxia may have done nothing wrong. Guan Siyu may have joined forces with the Taihang thieves." Zu Beiqiu said immediately.
"I know." Gu Nianfeng smiled faintly, "Even Junior Brother has such a temper that he doesn't bother to lie about this kind of thing."
"Right, so my brother and I have a look..."
"The murder scene is already a mess, and nothing can be seen." Zheng Dongting squatted down in vain, and looked at the pools of blood that were so shallow that they were almost invisible.
"Don't worry about it, there are knife marks on the wall, and the party's three swords have come." Gu Nianfeng affirmed, "There, the village owner of the second village in Nantaihang started with three swords, two swords were shallow and left and right, and one sword was deep. Facing the door, he used this trick to pick out one of Baili Zhan's eyes that day."
"Dang Sandao really came to the scene? This is even more unreasonable. It is impossible for Guan Siyu to kill Ye Duanhun under the watchful eyes of the king of hell with a knife. Ye Duanhun must have died in the hands of Lian Daxia." Zheng Dongting stroked said with a chin.
"Besides, Dang Sansao was very flustered when he wielded the sword." Zu Beiqiu said again.
"Are you a half-immortal? Do you know how people feel about using a sword?" Zheng Dongting asked with a frown.
Gu Nianfeng said: "Brother Zu is right. It is impossible for these three sabers to leave a full three saber marks on the wall. If one saber misses, you should withdraw the saber in time. He didn't even think about using the three sabers in one breath, which is showing that It shows that he is extremely afraid of the opponent, and he can't wait to make a contribution with one blow."
"Who can make Dang Sandao so fearful, Guan Siyu? No, it must be Lian Daxia." Zheng Dongting murmured, "He heard Lian Daxia's laughter that day and couldn't help running away. Now face to face Dare to fight, even the hero has Guan Siyu next to him, where did he get the courage. There is only one possibility——Guan Siyu had already betrayed at that time."
Gu Nianfeng glanced at Zheng Dongting, shook his head and said indifferently: "Dongting, this is just your wishful thinking. These Taihang Mountain swordsmen may have come to ambush Guan Siyu, but who knows, they saw Junior Brother Lian clashing with him and killing him with a sword Die. They want to fish in troubled waters, so..."
"Brother, Gu Daxia, footprints...footprints!" Zu Beiqiu, who had walked all the way to the east wall, suddenly exclaimed in a low voice excitedly.
"Footprints?" Zheng Dongting was shocked.The entire Juyi Hall is paved with hard bluestone, and a footprint can be stepped on this kind of ground, unless it is done by a master of the inner family.Thinking of this, he quickly ran to Zu Beiqiu's side: "Where is it?"
"Here, there are many!" Zu Beiqiu pointed at his body and whispered.
Zheng Dongting squatted down and followed what he pointed to, and there were indeed several footprints of different shades on the ground.
"This pair of shoes has the largest prints and an astonishing size, and the cuts on the bluestone slabs are very sharp. They were stepped on by official boots. These are Mr. Guan's official boots." Zheng Dongting pointed to a large footprint and analyzed.
Gu Nianfeng approached slowly and looked up.
"Look at these half footprints, they penetrate two inches into the bluestone slab, and the soles are ferocious. They are Xie Gong boots popular in Nanwudao." Zu Beiqiu said, "Yizhou people love this shoe the most for mountaineering."
"This is either Ye Duanhun's footprint, or Dang Sandao's." Zheng Dongting clasped his hands together.
"This is Ye Duanhun's footsteps. His martial arts is the worst among the four, so his internal strength cannot be retracted freely, and most of his strength is wasted on the soles of his feet." Gu Nianfeng said with his footprints.
"Or, this is the place where he was killed by the sword, so his true energy was released, and this shoe print several inches deep was printed." Zu Beiqiu said.
"You know?" Zheng Dongting asked in disbelief.
Zu Beiqiu and I walked half a step forward, came to the east wall, touched the wall, and said: "Brother, there are still faint bloodstains here, and the distribution of celestial maiden flowers is just above the shoe prints, you see .”
Zheng Dongting straightened up and came to the east wall, and took a closer look. Just as Zu Beiqiu said, there was an oval-shaped pool of blood on the wall, and all kinds of blood droplets spread radially up, down, left, and right, showing that Ye Duanhun was killed by someone. A sword pierced through the chest and was almost nailed to the wall.
"En..." Despite the reluctance in his heart, Zheng Dongting had to admit that his junior brother's observation ability was indeed much stronger than him.
"Guan Siyu and Taihang Swordsman are indeed in the same group." Gu Nianfeng suddenly laughed.
"The shoe prints of these three people all have their toes facing west and their heels facing east. It shows that they are still standing side by side on the east wall, resisting their opponents together, and their opponents are standing opposite them. His shoe prints are on the here."
Gu Nianfeng took three steps slowly, pointing at the two shallow shoe prints in front
"That's right!" Zheng Dongting came to him and squatted down, "This is indeed the shoe print of Lian Daxia. Tianshan Sanqing Gong emphasizes perfection and self-sufficiency. Even in a bloody battle, even a hero can Control the direction of his true energy, and try not to waste a penny, so his shoe prints should be the shallowest pair. And..." Zheng Dongting looked at the shoe prints up and down, and his face became weird. "
"And what?" Zu Beiqiu asked curiously.
"Don't look at Lian Daxia, who is a world-famous hero, but he has a pair of unbelievably small feet, just like a woman." Zheng Dongting couldn't help laughing when he said this.
Gu Nianfeng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "A woman?"
How should I put it, Zheng Dongting has a keen sense...
"Um... I... just talking." Zheng Dongting coughed, "Well, so the actual situation of this battle is that even the hero alone is fighting against Guan Siyu, Ye Duanhun and Dang Sandao. people."
Speaking of this, his face gradually became solemn, "Even Daxia was able to pick Guan Siyu and Ye Duanhun with swords in the siege of these three people, and forced them to retreat three times. This record is as brilliant as his one on Tianshan West Road before and after the war.”
"That's amazing, as expected of Tianshan Yuexia." Zu Beiqiu said hastily.
"Then, I will trouble you, Brother Gu, to hand over these evidences to the Guanzhong Criminal Hall." Zheng Dongting straightened up and said in a deep voice.
"Why should I notify them?" Gu Nianfeng's expression was very flat, he was still smiling, his smile was shallow, with some unreal warmth, but his words were light and indifferent.
"Lian Daxia is innocent." Zheng Dongting was stunned for a moment before replying.
Gu Nianfeng seemed to hear something happy: "It's very dangerous. I don't know how many accomplices Guan Siyu has wandering around in Jijiu League. I don't need to take risks for this, and there is no benefit."
Being selfless and indifferent, this is Gu Nianfeng. I really want to see how far you will give up?
"Then let's talk about it ourselves!" Zu Beiqiu said seriously.
"It's useless. Guan Siyu is the leader of the Guild. Do you think they will believe what the two of us say? Only when disciples from Tianshan, Shaolin and other sects conduct investigations can anyone believe it." Zheng Dongting smiled wryly.
At this moment, a turbulent sword light suddenly fell from the ceiling of Juyi Hall, covering the two of them head-on.
In a critical moment, Zheng Dongting pushed Zu Beiqiu away, turned around and lay down on the ground, barely avoiding the sharpness of the sword light.But there was still a long bloody gash under his ribs.
"There are assassins!" Zheng Dongting yelled loudly, while a carp bounced up from the ground.
The assassin in front of him was dressed in black, with a black scarf on his face. Hiding in the shadow of the hall, he seemed to have melted into the darkness. Only the sharp sword in his hand was like the fangs of a ferocious beast, aggressive.
Before Zheng Dongting had time to gain a firm foothold, the black-clothed assassin pounced on him like a cheetah, and with a flash of frost blade in his hand, he grabbed his throat.
Although Zheng Dongting is good at light body, he is not as fast as a sword after all, not to mention that his ribs are injured, it is more difficult to move, and he is about to be pierced by a sword.
At this moment, Gu Nianfeng's sword came out of its sheath, the light of the sword was as cold as jade, and the assassin's weapon was thrown away with one sword.
Gu Nianfeng changed hands and used the Tianshan sword technique "a line of stars breaks through the Chu Heavenly Realm".
The man in black recognized him very well, quickly withdrew his sword, and dodged the blow far away with a backflip.
"There are assassins!" Zheng Dongting lifted Zu Beiqiu's fat body on his shoulders and shouted loudly.
The sonorous voice attracted the Guanzhong disciples on duty in the courtyard.Several disciples from the Xuzhou sub-rudder brandished long swords, shouted aggressively, and surrounded the assassins.
I saw the black-clothed assassin spun around quickly, and the long sword danced a round of dazzling discs.There were only a few crisp ding ding ding ding sounds, and the long sword in his hand was broken into scrap iron before the disciples who surrounded him had time to dance their swords.
"Run!" The Guanzhong disciples simply didn't stop, turned around and ran away quickly.
"Let's go!" Wuxin got entangled with this person, Gu Nianfeng shouted directly at Zheng Dongting, and then used lightness kung fu to leave here.
Zheng Dongting carried Zu Beiqiu on his shoulders and followed
The night wind was blowing, and the dim lights of Xuzhou city were continuous, forming an endless river of light in Zheng Dongting's eyes.If it is in normal times, performing lightness kung fu and running around at night amidst the lights of thousands of houses, such a stream of light is the most eye-catching.
But at this moment, Zheng Dongting has no time to appreciate the beautiful scenery galloping in front of him, and he is absolutely unwilling to stop at all, let alone waste his energy shouting for help, so he can only jump silently from the roof of one house to another. He is a household, and specially chooses a road that seems too weird and unpredictable in the eyes of ordinary people to run away desperately.
Zheng Dongting's lightness kung fu is the most brilliant lightness kung fu in the Jianghu, but with a weight of two hundred catties on his body, it is really difficult to use this swallow-like lightness to the extreme.And although the lightness kung fu performed by this assassin is not as famous as Yanzi Feiyun, it is still one of the best stunts in the world, and it is wishful thinking to get rid of him.What Gu Nianfeng showed on the surface was Tianshan's lightness kung fu, which was not bad, but it was similar to that person, so he had to stick to the situation first.
Either start fighting now, or get rid of it.
Between exposing martial arts and exposing lightness kung fu, Gu Nianfeng chose to expose lightness kung fu.
"Get down!" Gu Nianfeng commanded neatly
Zheng Dongting didn't even think about it, he stepped on the roof under his feet and fell into the residential house below him.
Gu Nianfeng also fell into it.
The assassin who was following him straightened his feet, stood firm on the house, and pointed his sword down, covering the whole house under his aura induction, but did not rush into Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting immediately. into the hole.He was obviously still a bit afraid of Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting's abilities, fearing that they would suddenly use killers in the room and catch him by surprise.
Gu Nianfeng directly found a quilt from the bedroom of the folk house, and quickly said: "Put down Zu Beiqiu, and resist the quilt!"
Zheng Dongting immediately followed suit, Zu Beiqiu had just learned lightness kung fu not long ago, and he couldn't escape at all, so he might as well use blindfolds.
After a while, the man in black made sure that there was no murderous agitation in the house, and then he pierced his feet, preparing to break down the house like Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting.
At this moment, there was a loud cracking sound of the door panel.I saw that the door panel of this folk house was smashed by a strong force, and Gu Nianfeng and Zheng Dongting, who were carrying things, galloped towards the black forest in the distance.
"Hmph!" The black-clothed assassin snorted coldly and followed.
Just like the jungle, the speed of the two of them has increased.
"No! He is carrying a fat man weighing two hundred catties, how can he move so smoothly between the branches?" Thinking of this, the black-clothed assassin's heart was shaken, his true energy turned turbid, and he fell down from the tree involuntarily. .
At this time, Zheng Dongting, who was standing on the treetop, turned around and sneered, "Why, did you find something wrong?"
The assassin shook his long sword, raised his head, his eyes flashed red, obviously hated.
Zheng Dongting threw the "Zu Beiqiu" on his back to the ground.I saw the clothes on "Zu Beiqiu" fluttering away, leaving only a quilt with gaudy patterns inside.
"Hey, at first glance, you haven't read much. You don't need to think about the Four Books and Five Classics. Have you heard of the 36 Strategies?" Zheng Dongting asked sarcastically, "Do you know how to write the words 'crossing the sea'?"
The black-clothed assassin suddenly came to his senses, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the residence just now.
Gu Nianfeng jumped away directly, faster than before.
"Guess if you can still catch up with us now?" Zheng Dongting said one more word, and then his whole body disappeared into the air like a gray-black lightning bolt, blending into the boundless night.
The assassin was about to raise his legs to chase, but he couldn't even see the figures of the two of them, so he had no choice but to hold back his steps.
Zheng Dongting has no doubts about Gu Nianfeng's lightness skills, he has learned to keep a certain amount of silence in front of Gu Nianfeng.
"Brother, where are we going?" Zu Beiqiu obediently stayed where he was, huddled there, and was relieved until he saw Zheng Dongting.
"Let's talk about it in another place." Zheng Dongting comforted his poor junior.
Gu Nianfeng has been silent all this time, he finally found that he has always been different to Zheng Dongting.He seemed to be expecting something from Zheng Dongting.That's why he deliberately challenged Zheng Dongting's limit time and time again.He would reveal his true side to a person for no reason, which is enough to explain many problems...
In his subconscious mind, Zheng Dongting is different.
The sword of the man in black just now made him forget to think, and he directly struck away...
Gu Nianfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, looking lazily at Zheng Dongting.
It's really weird, what's so special about it.
It can actually affect your own judgment.Except for a few teammates and good friends who were born and died in the previous life, no one can do it.
Gu Nianfeng chuckled, and he was actually shaken...
It turns out that I still have a heart, and that heart still has a soft part.
"Sorrowful autumn?" An exclamation came from behind, "And Gu Shidi and Zheng Butou?"
The three of them turned their heads and saw that it was Luo Qiutong.She still had several packs of medicine in her hand.
"Qiu Tong, why are you here?" Zu Beiqiu showed an excited smile on his face, hearing his call, Luo Qiutong's snow-white cheeks showed a slight blush.
"I thought he had survived it, but who knew that he still had a deep affection for you in his heart." Zheng Dongting shook his head helplessly, "Why is Miss Luo here?"
Luo Qiutong took a deep look at Zu Beiqiu, turned his head still determined and said: "Zheng Butou, to be honest, I came here to help Junior Brother Lian buy some medicinal materials for curing diseases."
"How is Junior Brother Lian?" Gu Nianfeng said slowly, he couldn't help but ask.
"After Junior Brother Lian was injured, fortunately he was discovered by Senior Brother Long, Senior Brother Zhao and I, and his injury was alleviated in time, but it still needs several medicines to eradicate the root cause," Luo Qiutong said in a deep voice, "They are now in a hundred miles outside Xuzhou The Crouching Tiger Forest is waiting for my news."
Gu Nianfeng pondered for a moment before opening his mouth and said, "Go and have a look."
The Crouching Tiger Forest in the southwestern suburbs of Xuzhou is full of pines and cypresses. When the night wind blows, the pines and cypresses are stirring, and the fallen leaves are rustling, just like a tiger howling. It walks through the forest, so it is called Crouching Tiger.Even in the daytime, the branches of the Crouching Tiger Forest cover the sky and it is as dark as dusk. At night, it is even darker and you can't see your fingers, just like a ghostly hell.
Lian Qingyan leaned on the solid pine tree branch behind her, panting heavily, Ye Duanhun, Guan Siyu and Dang Sandao's combination was not easy, he couldn't remember how to kill Ye Duanhun and Guan Siyu at that time of.
Everything in the Juyi Hall is like an unreal nightmare, which still makes him unbelievable: the chivalrous Guan Siyu suddenly betrayed, the Taihang Nanzhai who had been lurking in the South Five Roads raided Xuzhou, and Dang Sandao, who was advancing by leaps and bounds... The magic sword stunt, his current internal injury is caused by Dang Sandao's saber energy, so fierce in the East China Sea.
But none of these were enough to depress him. What depresses him is that Gong Tianying punctured his big plan to bet his name in the Gathering Hall today.
Gong Tianying has always been a cancer of the Tianshan School.Ever since he came up to the mountain, Lian Qingyan had seen that he had a strange heart, maybe he was not a thing in the pond.
But his father, Lian Zijie, the head of the Tianshan School, regarded this strange young man as a treasure, and despite his several times of persuasion, he finally taught him the best swordsmanship of the Tianshan School.
Even Qingyan knew that he would leave one day, but even he did not expect that Gong Tianying not only rebelled against the sect and betrayed his faith, but also wanted to sell all the unique knowledge of the Tianshan School to Yuenu Palace.
A heart-wrenching colic came from his chest, and several internal injuries that had been invaded by the saber qi broke out at the same time, as if several steel files were rasping the meridians in his chest.
"Who is it!" Zhao Heng, who was in charge of security, suddenly shouted loudly.
Two senior brothers from Tianshan are guarding Lian Qingyan.
"Brother Zhao, it's me and Brother Gu!" Luo Qiutong said loudly.
"Senior Brother Zhao, it's me." Gu Nianfeng appeared unhurriedly, he turned slightly sideways, and behind him Zheng Dongting and Zu Beiqiu also appeared.
Zheng Dongting coughed twice, cupped his hands and said, "Hero Lian."
Lian Qingyan suddenly said: "Brother Zheng, after all the previous events, I am not your brother Lian anymore?"
Zheng Dongting was taken aback, as if he had just realized that the name he called Lian Qingyan was no longer what it used to be.He didn't know how to answer, so he could only keep silent.
"Junior Brother Lian, can you tell me what's going on now?" Gu Nianfeng said seriously, no matter what, the role of the scene must be full.
"Senior Brother Long, Senior Brother Zhao, please let me, Senior Brother Lian, Brother Zheng, and Brother Zu be alone for a while." Lian Qingyan raised her head and said softly.
"Okay" The two didn't say much, took the medicine brought by Luo Qiutong, left with Luo Qiutong, and filed into the deep forest farther away in Crouching Tiger Forest.
"Brother Zheng, Brother Zu, I have never had a chance to say sorry to you." Lian Qingyan leaned against the giant tree.Reluctantly straightened up, and moved his body a little closer to Zheng Dongting, "Because of my plan that day, I am tired of worrying you and fearing that you have gone through so much suffering. It is my fault."
Zheng Dongting smiled wryly at Lian Qingyan: "You don't have to be polite even a hero, once you enter the rivers and lakes, even if you didn't have your plan back then, my life, Zheng Dongting, would not be much easier."
"Unexpectedly, Brother Zheng is much more open-minded than me, Lian is ashamed." Lian Qingyan was shocked, with a look of shame and approval in her eyes, she cupped her hands at him, "But why don't you call me Brother Lian anymore? Do you have any other dissatisfaction with me?"
Zheng Dongting silently glanced at him and thought for a while, then finally shook his head: "It's not something I can speculate on even a great hero's actions, and Zheng doesn't dare to speak out."
"Hero Lian, I think what you... did is really wrong!" Zu Beiqiu said in a daze.
"Why do you say that?" Lian Qingyan subconsciously straightened her body, and said in a loud voice: "People from the Seven Sects are full of martial arts, but they sit and watch the people outside the pass being slaughtered by the Taihang Village without helping them. If no one forces them to They will not do their best for the common people in their whole life. What is even more ridiculous is that they are unparalleled in their chivalry. Every day, they are self-indulgent in singing their own praises and gaining fame. I can arouse a trace of blood in these people and make them Why not do something good for the world?"
"Hero Lian, you shouldn't make all kinds of false appearances and mislead the disciples of the Seven Sects to join forces with the bandits of Taihang Mountain. Even if you want to save the common people outside the customs, even if you don't want any fame or reputation, it's really wrong to do so." Zheng Dongting Finally couldn't help but whispered, "You can't force people to act bravely, let alone be chivalrous. It's true that these people are doing nothing for fame and fame, but the crime is not fatal. You forced these pampered children of the big school to go to the Taihang Mountains and those who spend their days doing nothing. The Taihang bandits who take pleasure in killing people are desperate, what is the difference between killing their lives and making money? Even if they want to save the people of Li, it is unreasonable." Zheng Dongting slapped his chest hard and said excitedly, "If I were you, I would He will be like Gu Tianya in the past, single-handedly and single-handedly challenge Taixing, and make a great career."
Zheng Dongting said with emotion: "When I entered the rivers and lakes, I hoped that one day I could be a hero like Gu Tianya."
"Really? Your ideals are even bigger than mine. I entered the rivers and lakes and became a knight because of one person." Lian Qingyan showed an illusory smile on her face.
"Who is it?" Zheng Dongting asked curiously.
"I originally lived with my father in Tianshan Mountain, and practiced Tianshan swordsmanship since I was a child, but I felt disgusted with practicing swordsmanship in my heart. I never forgot to go down the mountain to find my mother who had been lost for many years. Ten years ago, I learned about my mother from a senior brother. However, that year the Turks were about to return to the country, and the Kunlun Demon Sect was flooding the customs, and the government was struggling to deal with it. The Taihang bandits took the opportunity to rise up and make trouble everywhere. I just met my mother who was recovering from a serious illness. We met each other, and before we had time to say goodbye to each other, we and a group of people were surrounded by more than a hundred elite thieves from Taihang Mountain. These butchers have already killed red eyes, no matter men, women, old or young. Of course my mother and I understand However, one of them is not proficient in martial arts, and the other has not regained his vitality. He is about to be beheaded by these Taihang masters. At this time, a young hero entered the battle group. He alone blocked the siege of more than a hundred people and protected us This group of people went all the way to the garrison of the state capital. Along the way, he killed dozens of Taihang swordsmen. He was covered in blood, and even his face was covered with blood. After getting out of trouble, my mother and I hurriedly wanted to find out his origin , Who knew that he lost his trace as soon as he turned around. Since then, I have made an oath to practice swordsmanship hard from now on, vowing to be a chivalrous hero like him. I think as long as I continue to be a chivalrous hero, one day I will be able to Meet him again. And then..." Having said this, a blush suddenly flashed across Lian Qingyan's face.
Gu Nianfeng knew that Lian Zijie had tried many times to match him up with Lian Qingyan, who was disguised as a man, so that they could inherit Tianshan together in the future.But Lian Qingyan has her own heart and never agrees.Gu Nianfeng didn't know about such a past until now.
"Ten years ago... Bingzhou..." Gu Nianfeng murmured in a low voice, he suddenly felt that this time and place were very familiar...
Lian Qingyan asked curiously: "Senior Brother Gu, what are you talking about?"
"We've been chatting for so long, can we talk about business?" Gu Nianfeng changed the subject and avoided answering.
"My junior brother and I visited the Juyi hall at night and found evidence that Guan Siyu and the Taihang swordsman joined forces to fight you. Has Guan Siyu betrayed?" Zheng Dongting asked in a deep voice.
"You guys actually found out? I thought this matter had been buried forever, and there was no way to prove it." Lian Qingyan said in surprise.
"Brother Gu found a series of shoe prints, and my junior brother found evidence from the footprints that the Taihang Swordsman and Guan Siyu had colluded. We were also attacked by assassins for this reason." Zheng Dongting said seriously.
"Assassin? Is there anyone else involved in this matter? As far as I know, Guan Siyu's betrayal just happened, and he hasn't had time to develop any party members." Lian Qingyan said softly.
"What? What's going on?" Zheng Dongting asked strangely.
"The reason why Guan Ye became the leader of the martial arts alliance and the head of the Guanzhong Sword Sect is inseparable from the strong support of the Luo family. He and the brothers of the Luo family are also life-threatening friends. Ever since I released the news of the Luo family's destruction, he thought he was in the martial arts world. The only force that supported him as the leader has died, and he must find a new force to support him."
"So he found the Taihang cottage?" Zheng Dongting asked in disbelief.
"Guan Ye has always been an ambitious person, and he is very ambitious. Taihang Shanzhai happens to be looking for an internal support from the Seven Great Sword Sects, and Guan Ye also needs a backer who can support him in competing for the position of the leader. The two groups hit it off and worked hand in hand. But I bumped into it when I was handing over the letter from the Luo family." Lian Qingyan sighed and said, "It's a pity that Guan Ye is good at martial arts, but he couldn't follow through on major events, so I killed him in the end. The matter of Guan Ye's betrayal , you must not speak out, this matter is very involved, and if you pursue it, you will only get deeper and deeper. The most important thing now is to take pictures of the assassin, otherwise no one will be safe. "
"Junior Brother Lian, don't worry, I will watch. You are seriously injured now, so you should take care of yourself," Gu Nianfeng said sincerely.
"What I have done is not completely worthy of my heart, and I will explain to the world at that time." Speaking of this, Lian Qingyan showed a resolute look on her face.
"I recognize that assassin." Gu Nianfeng whispered as if suddenly remembering something, "I fought him before, he is Gong Tianying!"
"Despicable!" Lian Qingyan said angrily, "He is so unscrupulous for the Luoyang Sword Discussion Conference!"
"What is the Luoyang Sword Discussion Conference?" Zu Beiqiu asked curiously.
"It's a gathering of young heroes in the Central Plains. It is held once every 12 years. Young masters from various sects compete with each other, and the best winner is selected as the master of swordsmanship. This is the most important ceremony in the Central Plains. The so-called crossing the dragon gate is worth a hundred times, once you become a master of swordsmanship, the whole martial arts world will know your name. Many martial arts people have dreamed of becoming a master of swordsmanship for generations." After introducing this grand event in the martial arts world, Zheng Dongting A thought suddenly popped up in his mind, "Wait a minute, is Gong Tianying going to use the Tianshan Yeluo Xinghe sword to argue with Master Jian? But he has already broken the gate wall of the Tianshan sect, and according to the rules of the world, he can no longer use the Tianshan sword technique."
"Hmph, this is the most infuriating part. In order to be able to use the Tianshan Yeluo Xinghe Sword to compete for the title of Master of Swordsmanship, he actually claimed in public that the Yeluo Xinghe Sword is not a sword technique of the Tianshan School, but a new method created by Yue Nugong. Swordsmanship." Lian Qingyan said in a deep voice.
"He... he actually said that!" Zheng Dongting said in surprise.
"The founder of the Yeluo Xinghe Sword was an elder of the Tianshan School, but that was already a matter of the Southern and Northern Dynasties. The Yeluo Xinghe Sword sword manual was lost in Kunlun Mountains with the death of an elder during the Zhenguan period. The Tianshan School has passed through generations. According to legend, it is a dictation of the sword formula. In the past ten years, because of the activity of the Taihang Lion King Duan Teng, many seniors who were good at using the Yeluo Xinghe sword were killed by him. Now only me and Lian Shidihui are left in the entire Tianshan sect. This set of sword techniques. Now that Junior Brother Lian is seriously injured and unable to use it, Gong Tianying just took this opportunity to declare to the whole Jianghu that the Yeluo Xinghe sword belongs to Yuenu Palace." Gu Nianfeng slowly explained.
"Isn't there still you?" Zheng Dongting looked at Gu Nianfeng and asked.
Gu Nianfeng said casually: "I'm not sure I can beat him. I have been competing with people in the arena, and I rarely divide life and death with others, and I don't even have the brilliant record of my junior brother."
"Jianling Jiuxiao Gong Tianying is now famous. Countless masters of swordsmanship have been defeated by his weird and unpredictable swordsmanship. The power of Yuenu Palace and the outer pavilion has expanded unprecedentedly, and the world is looking at him. This is a peaceful day in the Central Plains. After a long time, there are many scum who bully the weak and fear the strong. Seeing how powerful Gong Tianying is, they all waved their flags and shouted for him. He said what he said. These days he said that the Yeluo Xinghe Sword was created by the Yuenu Palace , If anyone refuses to accept it, use the Yeluo Xinghe sword to compete with him, and if he wins, he will admit that this set of sword techniques is not owned by Yuenugong." Lian Qingyan continued.
"That's not right. Doesn't this mean that whoever makes the best set of martial arts is the one who created this set of martial arts? Then, isn't it..." Zu Beiqiu protested.
"That's right, isn't it true that all martial arts in the world were created by our master, Mu Tianhou?" Zheng Dongting was indignant
