Chunfengcuo
Chapter 11
I don't know how long it took, a burst of food scent gradually drifted into the cabin, Shen Wumeng was aroused a little hungry, followed the scent and walked out of the cabin.
The drizzle has stopped, the blue sky is clear, and there are still a few rays of sunshine. A faintly huge rainbow bridge spans the river, casting grotesque reflections on the water.
Su Weiming was busy at the bow of the boat, an iron wok was placed on the clay stove in front of him, and a large pot of fish soup was already boiling.Seeing Shen Wumeng approaching, he filled a bowl and put it on the boat board, scooped another bowl for himself, and ate slowly.
Shen Wumeng sat down and ate two mouthfuls. The soup was delicious, and the fish was so smooth and tender. He couldn't help but look at Su Weiming with admiration. He thought that this little guy was just like Mu Zhe who only knew how to practice swords, except for being lustful and greedy. He has such good cooking skills. "Can you still cook?"
As soon as the words came out, I felt a little regretful, thinking that I would be ignored by Su Weiming again, but Su Weiming said indifferently: "These are not difficult things. I grew up in the countryside, and when the farming was busy, I would I have to help the family who adopted me do some chores, go to the fields to thresh, and the next kitchen is nothing to be fussed about.”
His tone was calm, but Shen Wumeng felt a little sore in his chest when he heard it.Regarding Su Weiming's life experience, he just heard Su Muzhe mention it that day, and he still couldn't understand why Su Tingxuan sent his eldest son to the countryside to be raised by others.Wanting to ask, seeing that Su Weiming was holding a soup bowl and facing the distance of Tianshui in a daze, with lingering worry lingering between his brows, he suppressed the impulse in his heart.
Abandoned by his biological father, it was Su Weiming's deep pain that he couldn't let go of, so why should he go to uncover the old scar in Su Weiming's heart.
For a while, both of them fell into silence, only drinking the fish soup silently.
The wind on the river was so strong that the sails of the boat slapped.As the day approached noon, the river surface was filled with mist, water birds flew by, and there were gradually more and more boats, large and small, passing by.Casting nets for fishing is really lively.
Dozens of wild ducks swam past the side of the boat in groups, not frightened when they saw people, looking left and right, dipping their heads into the water from time to time to eat, or bowing their heads to peck their fur.
Shen Wumeng somehow remembered the day when he first met the boy many years ago.It was clearly a pool of mandarin ducks, but the boy called them ducks.The mandarin ducks drifted away one after another, and the boy pursed his mouth, angry and wronged, which made him laugh...
"Hehe..." The old things in the past suddenly come one after another, and the boy's frown and smile are as vivid as yesterday.He chuckled unconsciously.
"When Mu Zhe was young, he was not as mature as he is now. The first time I saw him by the pond in the backyard of Xiaozhu, he was only six or seven years old. He must have just been bullied at that time, his eyes were red, and he was stupid Yes, I didn’t know the mandarin ducks in the pond, I thought they were ducks, heh, I thought at the time, whose children are these?…”
The memory made Shen Wumeng's brows and eyebrows surprisingly gentle, and a crisp sound of broken porcelain suddenly sounded, interrupting his muttering to himself.
The soup bowl in Su Weiming's hand fell on the board of the boat and broke into several pieces.The fish soup splashed on his hands, it was very hot, but he didn't notice it, and just stared at Shen Wumeng.
"...What's the matter with you?..." Shen Wumeng was a little embarrassed by Su Weiming, coughed and turned his head, and said, "Don't misunderstand that I am those lewd people who only love to play with young children , I have never been interested in children, I just closed my eyes to your brother."
Thinking of the boy's expressions at that time, the smile spread slowly from the corners of his mouth like ripples. "You may not believe it, but the reason I went to Broken Sword Xiaozhu that day was to kill Guan Shanyu and vent my anger on Mo Hufa, my God Cult. At that time, I was still thinking that if your father came out to get in the way, I would even go with him Get rid of it, but I didn’t expect to meet your brother Mu Zhe first, which also made me change my mind and didn’t do anything.”
Su Weiming's lips trembled, as if there was something in his heart that was churning wildly and wanted to spew out, but his throat was convulsed and painful, and he couldn't utter a word, only seeing that Shen Wumeng was still immersed in the memories of the past, and smiled softly: " That may be the so-called fate. I only saw the side of Mu Zhe, and I never forgot about him after returning to Tianyi. After that, I would go to Xiaozhu every year to watch him practice swords, watch him learn piano, watch him meditate, and watch him grow up. Grown up..."
Shen Wumeng turned around, stared at Su Weiming, and said seriously: "I have been waiting for the past 20 years. Do you still think that I am just interested in Mu Zhe now?" Seeing that Su Weiming's face was paler than ever before, he lightly Sigh: "I say this not to beg for mercy from you, but to tell you that no matter how you obstruct me in the future, I will not let go of the curtain."
Su Weiming's face was bleak in the smoke and water, and his heart sank little by little following Shen Wumeng's confession.He wanted to shout loudly, he wanted to tell Shen Wumeng that the one he saw for the first time was not Mu Zhe...but what's the use?
Even if Shen Wumeng knew that he was that stupid kid by the pond back then, would he change his mind and let Mu Zhe go?Year after year, what the man watched and waited for was his younger brother Mu Zhe.
For Yu Shen Wumeng, the first sight when they first met, the night with Cangjian Pavilion, it was all a mistake...
"Heh..." He didn't know why he could squeeze out a smile from his dry throat, he stopped looking at Shen Wumeng, and lowered his head to pick up the broken pieces of the soup bowl.
Today's Weiming seemed a little too quiet... Shen Wumeng frowned and remained silent, waiting for Su Weiming's younger brother to argue with him, but Su Weiming went to the stern after packing up, and never made a sound .
The original delicious fish soup in the bowl suddenly became tasteless, he put the bowl down, and rationally warned himself not to look back, but his eyes looked back at the stern of the boat against his will, trying to find the azure figure as lonely as the river.
The cabin in the middle blocked his sight.
He and Su Weiming were sitting on the bow and stern of the boat, although they were on the same boat, they were as far apart as thousands of mountains and rivers.
When the night fell on the river, the rain that had stopped for most of the day began to fall again.At first it was sporadic, and gradually it got bigger and bigger.The fishing boats on the river are all dim and swaying in the wind and rain, like faint fluorescent lights.
Shen Wumeng was lying in the cabin with his clothes on, listening to the raindrops as big as soybeans constantly crackling on the roof of the cabin tarpaulin, without feeling sleepy.
A little oil lamp illuminated the empty surroundings, and he was alone.
Thinking that after the rain, he asked Su Weiming to enter the cabin to take shelter from the rain to rest, but Su Weiming ignored him, still sitting motionless at the stern, Shen Wumeng couldn't help but sighed deeply again, and then smiled wryly.
What he said during the day must have made Su Weiming more jealous and disgusted with him, and he would rather be in the rain outside the cabin than be in the same room with him.He also thought about dragging Su Weiming in forcibly, but after thinking about Su Weiming's nightmare in the peach forest, he finally gave up this idea.
I don't know when this bleak night rain will stop...
Su Weiming sat under the sail with her knees hugged, her hair and clothes were soaked.Rainwater kept falling on his face, slipped over the corners of his eyes, and trickled down.
He still remembers that when he was a child, he first learned from the farm couple who adopted him that he was not their child, but was sent to foster care by his biological father. It was also raining that day.He cried and cried to go home and find his parents, but when he rushed to the entrance of the village, he realized that he didn't know where his home was or where he should go.
The rain soaked his whole clothes, and he curled up under the tree, weeping and shaking.When his adoptive father found him, he sobbed and begged his adoptive father to take him home, but his adoptive father just told him coldly that his employer had sent a message that he was not allowed to return home.
He wailed.
When he was seven years old, Uncle Jiu came to take him back to Xiaozhu, giving him a glimmer of hope, thinking that his father had changed his mind, but what he got in exchange was a farther and longer exile.Nine years later, he stepped into the house again, thinking that he would finally be able to reunite with his family from now on, but the reality was far crueler than the dream.
From the moment he broke up with his father, he told himself that he would never hope for anything again, because he was an abandoned person by fate and was destined to be alone.
"Hehehe..." He laughed in a low voice, the rainwater entered the mouth, bitter and unspeakable.I have always hated the unfairness of fate, hated my bad luck, and could only live in the shadow of my younger brother.I just found out today that a few years ago, there was a person whose heart fluttered for him at a glance.
Only for him, Su Weiming...
"...haha..." But in the end, it was just a joke played by fate.He will always be a superfluous person.
He raised his head and let the cold rain fall from the sky, washing away the hot liquid that could not be contained in his eyes.
The rain stopped suddenly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
An oil-paper umbrella blocked the rain for him.Most of the man's body was outside the umbrella, and when the rain fell, it was bounced away by a thin layer of purple mist around the man.Shen Wumeng's dark eyes were staring at him with some doubts.
The two looked at each other silently for a long time, Shen Wumeng finally let out a low and inaudible sigh: "Go into the cabin..."
He didn't miss the tears streaming down from the corners of Su Weiming's eyes, and he didn't understand why Su Weiming was so sad.If it were another big man crying in front of his eyes, Shen Wumeng would only despise that man's cowardice and incompetence, but facing Su Weiming, his chest quietly rose, and it was pity that he couldn't deny—even though The brothers of the Su family have already grown up, and in his mind, they still cannot escape the shadow of the children in those days.
"Go in." Worried that Su Weiming would be angry and refused to listen to his advice, he repeated it again, and stretched out his hand towards Su Weiming.
Unexpectedly, Su Weiming didn't refuse, and slowly raised his rain-stained hand, and put it into his palm.
Trembling with cold hands, Shen Wumeng frowned, pulled Su Weiming into the cabin, turned out of the package to change clothes, and wanted to ask Su Weiming to change.Turning around, he saw Su Weiming with a pale complexion, sitting blankly beside the oil lamp, the drops of water were still falling from his hair, and he didn't wipe it off.Shen Wumeng shook her head feebly, and didn't care whether Su Weiming would be angry or not, so she went over to help Su Weiming take off her wet clothes, dried her body, and put on clean clothes.He changed another towel and wiped his long dripping hair.
From beginning to end, Su Weiming remained motionless, letting him manipulate him.
On the contrary, Shen Wumeng felt that the atmosphere was a bit dull and weird. Seeing that his hair was almost dry, he threw down the towel, and handed the only thin felt blanket in the cabin to Su Weiming, saying: "It's not too early, early Some sleep, I'll go to sleep on the opposite side."
"...Shen... Wumeng..." The hoarse whisper sounded hesitantly, like a hook, caught Shen Wumeng's footsteps just about to lift up.
He was surprised, except for the time when Su Weiming was forced to call him "Wumeng", he usually called him "You" directly, or he called him "Shen Dajiaozhu" sourly, why did he suddenly call him? name?He wanted to see what happened on Su Weiming's face, but the latter lowered his head, his black hair covered his side face, so that he couldn't see Su Weiming's expression, so he could only hear Su Weiming whispered slowly: "If I'm not Mu Zhe's brother, will you still care about me?"
Shen Wumeng had never considered this level, and was stunned for a moment.
Just as he was hesitating, Su Weiming smiled calmly: "Just pretend I didn't ask, and you don't have to answer me."
That moment of hesitation had already given him the answer.A man keeps silent because he is afraid that telling the truth will embarrass him.Su Weiming just laughed at his stupidity, knowing that Shen Wumeng was extra tolerant to him because of Mu Zhe's affection, why would he still have illusions to humiliate himself.
He let out a long sigh of relief, lay down, and wrapped himself in the darkness with a felt blanket.
Shen Wumeng was not as free and easy as him, lying on the opposite side, he was still thinking about whether it would be... he couldn't sleep all night, and he didn't feel a little sleepy until dawn, and he closed his eyes hazily.
After a night of wind and rain, the sky is clear and clean, and half a round of sun slowly rises from the junction of water and sky, and the river is dyed orange red.
Su Weiming stood at the bow of the boat in a cloak and watched the sunrise. All the grievances and sorrows of last night seemed to have flowed away with the rain, and his state of mind was just like the river at dawn, peaceful and empty.
I planned to find Muzhe this time and expose Shen Wumeng's true face to Muzhe, but now I completely give up this idea.If Mu Zhe knew that he was humiliated by Shen Wumeng, he would definitely turn against Shen Wumeng.And he didn't want to see anyone get hurt because of him.One is his close relative, and the other...
"Heh!" No matter what he thinks of Shen Wumeng, he can't change anything, just let the secret by the pond be buried in his heart forever.All he cares about right now is his younger brother Mu Zhe.
What should be done to make Shen Wumeng let go?
He smiled bitterly, only to feel that the gradually rising sun was getting more and more dazzling, so he had to look away.
There are already several fishing boats fishing on the nearby river.One of the boats approached Su Weiming's boat, and a young fisherman held a bamboo basket and shouted to Su Weiming: "Master, this is the white fish we just caught this morning. It's fresh! Do you want it, sir?" Buy two and try something new?"
Just as Su Weiming was about to refuse, another fishing boat approached on the right, and the boat owner yelled, "Young Master, don't listen to his nonsense! The fish in his family are small and thin, and they can't compare to the white fish I catch. If you want to buy it, please buy it from me." of!"
Not to be outdone, the young fisherman said angrily, "You are talking nonsense! The fish in my basket are fat and alive. Do you dare to compare your fish?"
"Hey! Why don't you dare?"
The two of you said a word to each other, and the more noisy they became, the louder they became.At this time, the two fishing boats were already approaching, one left and one right. The boss of the boat and the young man set up boards respectively, and angrily carried bamboo baskets onto Su Weiming's boat, competing to send the bamboo baskets to Su Weiming. . "Young master, look at my white fish, buy some."
Although Su Weiming was in a depressed mood, he couldn't help being angry and funny when he saw this, knowing that if he didn't buy two fish, he might not be able to get rid of him, so he was reaching out his hand to take out the silver from his pocket, when he suddenly saw a sly smile in the eyes of the boat boss .
He froze, looked around, and saw several fishing boats approaching quietly, surrounding his boat—the two had deliberately loudly argued before, just to distract him, so that he had no time to care about the actions of other boats.
There is fraud!Su Weiming flipped his wrist lightly, and several golden rays of light shot out, piercing the two people in front of him.
Two low growls were heard accompanied by splashing blood, and the two men's chests and abdomens were dripping with blood. They were shocked by the sword energy and fell into the river, but their expressions were still extremely fierce, and they threw the two bamboo baskets towards Su Weiming with all their strength.
Most likely there are weirdos in the basket!Maybe there are some poisonous snakes and insects hidden, and they must not be allowed to get close!Su Weiming's thoughts turned, and he swung his sword out.
"Pfft!" The two bamboo baskets were shattered by the sword energy at once, and thick black smoke burst out from inside, instantly covering the sunlight, and the surrounding scenery was completely invisible.
Su Weiming was afraid that the black smoke was poisonous, so he hurriedly held his breath, but he had accidentally inhaled a little, and his head became dizzy for a while.He coughed and waved his sleeves, trying to shake off the black smoke around him, but he still couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness.Suddenly, I felt the boat under my feet shake violently, followed by wet shoes and socks.He wakes up after a while—
The bottom of the boat was gouged through!
The river water rushed into the boat quickly.Su Weiming was about to raise his breath to jump up, when suddenly there was a tingling pain in his feet and ankles, and he lost his strength. Then, someone grabbed his legs and dragged him forcefully, and fell into the river.
When the river water poured into his ears, he vaguely heard Shen Wumeng calling his name.
"Wei Ming?" Shen Wumeng jumped out of the cabin, trying to find Su Weiming's trace in the thick smoke.
As early as when the two were arguing, he had already woken up from his sleep. At first, he thought they were just two ordinary fishermen and didn't care. When he saw the black smoke rushing into the cabin, he suddenly knew that something was wrong, so he held his breath. , flew to the deck.
He called several times, but Su Weiming didn't respond, but the ship was tilting and sinking rapidly.Shen Wumeng soared into the air with a clear whistle, passed through the thick black smoke, and then bent lightly in the air, standing firmly on the top of the mast with one foot.Looking down from the heights, you can see four or five fishing boats gathered around. Everyone on the boat is dressed as a fisherman, and they all hold weapons in their hands.
A burly man with a beard seemed to be the leader of the crowd. When he saw Shen Wumeng appearing, he let out an arrow with a loud shout, and he raised his hand first. Several sleeve arrows shot towards Shen Wumeng like shooting stars.
Everyone shot out one after another, and all kinds of hidden weapons screamed through the air, and all kinds of hidden weapons screamed at Shen Wumeng.
Shen Wumeng smiled instead of anger, it seems that he has really been reclusive for too long, even such a low-level character dared to provoke him.Today, maybe it's time to start a killing spree!
Amidst the murderous long laughter, he waved his sleeves, and the strong wind hit the river directly, making two loud noises.Two jets of white water exploded on the surface of the river and rushed for a long time, knocking out all kinds of hidden weapons.Those fishing boats were also smashed into a ball by the raging river waves, and everyone couldn't stand firmly, screaming and falling into the water one after another.
The bearded man almost fell out of the side of the boat, he quickly stretched out his hand to grab the rope at the bow to stabilize his figure, looked up, and was shocked to see Shen Wumeng standing in front of him without making a sound.At this time, he had already regarded this extremely tall and beautiful man as a fierce tiger, bit the bullet and screamed wildly, swinging his sword forward.
The next moment, the long sword was broken, and dozens of pieces pierced into his thighs. His legs softened and he knelt down at Shen Wumeng's feet.
The rest of the people on the boat originally wanted to step forward to help, but seeing that the leader had lost, they were all startled, they winked at each other and jumped into the river, struggling to swim far away.
Shen Wumeng didn't pay any attention to these young men, and just asked the strong man indifferently: "You'd better tell the truth. Where's my companion? Also, who are you instigated by?"
His tone was as gentle as if he was chatting with a friend, and there was even a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but the strong man felt shuddering all over his body, tremblingly pointing to a fast-moving boat in the distance: "Your dear friend, on that boat On the boat. The villains are also obeying orders, please—ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssThe whole person threw himself on the board of the boat, with two darts sticking out of his back, which penetrated into the back of his heart.
Shen Wumeng saw at a glance that the person who attacked him was one of the accomplices who fell into the water, he snorted coldly, raised his palm and shot out in the air, the person's head exposed on the water was immediately smashed to pieces, like a smashed watermelon .Shen Wumeng clapped a few more palms, the river surged violently, when the waves subsided a bit, the river surface around him had turned blood red and was full of corpses.
In the middle of the river, there was a shadow, and a steep mountain gradually appeared in front of Shen Wumeng.
The Sacrifice Peak is coming soon... He turned his head, and the small boat pointed by the strong man was sailing with the wind and was far away from him, and it was about to dock.
He took a long breath, jumped into the river, lightly tapped his toes on the top of the waves, and chased the boat straight away like a frightened bird.
"Quick! Go ashore quickly!" The boat was still far away from the river bank, and several people on board were busy setting up the gangway, ready to go ashore.
A sharp palm wind suddenly hit, and the springboard broke into several sections.Before those people came back to their senses, many vital points on their bodies were restrained, unable to move, they watched a man in purple float into the boat.
The cabin was very small, Shen Wumeng scanned all over at a glance, but Su Weiming was not there, his face was covered with frost, and he clicked on one of them's dumb acupoints. "Where are people?"
The man tremblingly said: "You, you found the wrong one, that young master is on that boat..."
Shen Wumeng followed this person's gaze to the other side, her heart sank.A ship had already landed, and the people on board changed to the horses that had been prepared and rode them in several different directions.They were so far apart, and with all his eyesight, he could only recognize two people sitting on each horse, but he didn't know which one was the hijacked Su Weiming.No time to interrogate that person, he flew ashore and chased after the nearest rider.
Seeing Shen Wumeng's purple shadow disappear completely, those people looked at each other, with weird smiles of successful tricks on their faces.
"... Hehe..." A burst of hoarse laughter came from the previously empty cabin.A wooden board piled with fishing nets was suddenly pushed away, revealing the narrow darkroom under the cabin.
A tall man wearing a bamboo hat slowly stood up, dragged the other man by the skirt, and walked out of the dark room together.
That person was Su Weiming, his hair and clothes were soaked, his hands and feet moved after being pushed to the ground by the man, unable to stand up.
Before he was conspired and dragged into the river, he quickly calmed down after being panicked, and tried to shake off the attacker who swam behind him with his backhand, but both shoulders were pricked by sharp needles almost at the same time, and he was as powerless as his legs, and was attacked The victim hugged him by the waist, stepped on the water and floated to the surface of the river, and capsized into the waiting boat.
When hiding in the dark room at the bottom of the bilge, he heard Shen Wumeng's voice without leaking water. Just as he was about to speak, his throat was suddenly strangled by the attacker. The force of the man seemed to crush his Adam's apple. Su Weiming immediately Don't dare to act rashly again.
At this moment, his voice was finally free, he coughed twice, and stared at the man coldly. "Who are you?"
After searching all over my mind, there is no impression of this man, and I can't even remember when I had formed a relationship with this person.Could it be that he is my brother's enemy?
The man ignored him, took off the water on his body and stepped out of the cabin to relieve the acupuncture points of those people.
Su Weiming took the opportunity to gather his true energy and tried his best to stand up, but just as he raised half of his body, the man returned to the cabin and laughed hoarsely: "I underestimated you, you still have the strength to move after being poisoned, but You can't escape."
This man's voice is somewhat familiar... Su Weiming was thinking, the man had already taken out a slender golden needle, the needle was shining with a layer of blue light, obviously poisoned.He quickly pricked Su Weiming's neck with the needle, and said with a sneer, "Give me a good night's sleep."
"So it's you!" Su Weiming finally recognized the man's voice this time—the weird man in the Duhuo Mountain Villa Medical Center who often screamed wildly.However, what is this man trying to catch him for? ...
I want to ask, the poisonous gas has flowed into his brain along with the blood, his eyes turned black, and he fell into the boundless darkness amidst the strange laughter of that person who gradually became distant.
In the summer breeze, the trees on both sides of the official road are shady, and there may be cicadas singing between the branches, which are overwhelmed by the sound of two carriage wheels galloping past.The carriage headed south all the way, leaving only yellow dust tracks.
Su Weiming was lying in the carriage, his brows had not been relaxed for many days.It has been half a month since he was captured, and he tried to escape at first, but every time he recovered a little bit of strength, the man gave him a few more needles, and even searched for his golden sword a few days ago , Su Weiming finally gave up the pointless attempt.
He also tempted the man in an indirect way, trying to figure out the man's intentions.But the man only sneered behind the bamboo hat: "When you get here, you will understand."
Apart from cursing the man in his belly for pretending to be mysterious, Su Weiming had nothing to do, even though he heard those subordinates address the man as "Sect Leader", he racked his brains but couldn't figure out the origin of this man, and he didn't know if this man was going to kill him. Where to go, I only know that this group of people travels day and night and has almost entered the border of Lingnan.
Shen Wumeng certainly didn't expect him to be taken to such a remote place. At this moment, is he still looking for him?Or have you already gone up to the peak of offering sacrifices to inquire about Mu Zhe's whereabouts? ...Su Weiming's heart was ups and downs, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but evoke a self-deprecating smile.Mu Zhe is the one that Shen Wumeng has been dreaming of for many years. How could Shen Wumeng waste time looking for him, but to no avail?
What is he still looking forward to?It's ridiculous...
The man sitting next to him was looking at Su Weiming all the time, and said in a strange way: "You seem quite happy, what are you laughing at? You thought your friend would come to save you soon?"
Su Weiming was stunned for a moment before realizing that the man was talking about Shen Wumeng, and sighed: "I think you made a mistake, that person has nothing to do with me."
"Hahaha..." The man seemed to have heard a big joke, and said with a strange smile: "When I was in Duhuo Villa, I saw him get jealous because of you talking and laughing with that ugly girl, hey, it's irrelevant, who else do you want to lie to? "
He stretched out his rough, blood-red palm to touch Su Weiming's face, the resentment in his laughter made it difficult for Su Weiming to pretend not to hear. "I really didn't expect that the devil Shen Wumeng would fall in love with someone, even a man. With you in my hand, I'm not afraid that Shen Wumeng will kneel down and beg me."
It turned out that what this person had to deal with was Shen Wumeng!Su Weiming understood the clues, and said with a contemptuous smile: "If you have the ability, you can go to him to decide the outcome, but use me to blackmail him, heh!" Before the words finished, the man roared and suddenly Clenching his jaw tightly, Su Weiming's jaw hurt so much that he couldn't speak anymore.
"If you don't want to die so quickly, don't provoke me anymore." The man warned him viciously.
It was almost noon at this time, the carriage slowed down and stopped to rest under the shade of a tree by the side of the road.The man finally withdrew his hand, took out dry food to eat, and threw a few steamed buns to Su Weiming.
Footsteps approached the carriage, and one of them respectfully said, "Master, you have caught what you want."
The car curtain was lifted, and the man passed a bird and left.
The bird's wings were drooping on both sides, apparently just broken, and it sang sadly.Su Weiming was wondering, the man had already grabbed the flying bird, and took off the bamboo hat with the other hand.
"Ah..." Su Weiming couldn't help but stand on end when he suddenly saw a terrifying face full of tumors that looked like a ghost.
"Scared?" The man looked at Su Weiming with his left eye, pointed to his gray right eye, and smiled strangely: "Do you know who blinded my eye?"
Su Weiming's heart turned cold, and he kept silent.
The man was still laughing, the muscles on his face twisted, and pus and blood kept oozing out. "Did you guess it? Hehe, that's right, it's that demon Shen Wumeng. I've practiced poisonous kung fu hard for ten years just to settle this debt with him."
Su Weiming suddenly realized that this man's face became so scary because of his practice.In order to get revenge, he is willing to make himself look like a human and a ghost. It is obvious that he hates Shen Wumeng to the bone.
If it falls into the hands of this person, he will be in danger.Su Weiming was lowering his head and thinking about how to get out as soon as possible, when the short scream of the bird suddenly sounded in his ear, and he looked up in surprise.
The man bit the bird's neck and sucked a few mouthfuls of blood, threw the bird's carcass out of the car, licked his scarlet lips, and grinned at the shocked Su Weiming, "Have you never seen a human being drink bird blood? Hey!" ──" He suddenly leaned over and grabbed Su Weiming's face, his lips almost touched Su Weiming's ear, and said slowly, "I'm telling you, human blood actually tastes better."
In the breath sprayed on the face, there was still a bloody smell, and it was even more threatening.Su Weiming's scalp was numb, and the thought of escape that had just appeared in the nod also disappeared.
If he wanted to escape, he had to wait until he had full confidence, he didn't want to end up like this bird.
A few crows crowed through the dark sky, adding a bit of desolation to the dilapidated archway standing alone at the end of the village.Yi rode speeding past under the setting sun, and heard the crow crowing, immediately the two of them spat at the same time, calling it unlucky.
"After passing this village, find a place to rest, and go on the road tomorrow. After walking for so many days, I still can't see that person catching up. I think he has probably lost track of him. We don't need to go on the road." The man holding the rein was just Speaking vigorously, a purple shadow suddenly passed over their heads and landed in front of the horse.
The horse was galloping fast, and raised its hoof to slam into Ziying, and was swept by Ziying's forelegs in an instant. There were two "clicks", and the leg bones snapped. down.
Those two raised their heads in embarrassment, just as they saw that Zi Ying was a strangely handsome man in purple clothes, a few wisps of finger wind struck from the air, and hit the key points of the two of them.
Shen Wumeng looked at the two of them coldly.That day he chased a horse by the river, and stopped it the next day, but Su Weiming was not seen. He pressed the two knights to find out that Su Weiming was on another horse and would be sent to Fengtian Mansion.Then he rushed to the direction of Fengtian Mansion, inquired and chased another horse along the way, but Su Weiming was also missing, and the two knights said that Su Weiming was taken to the south of Shu by the knight on the third horse.He didn't even rest for a moment, and immediately embarked on the path of pursuit.
Searching for days has almost exhausted his patience, but there is still no one he is looking for, and the last hope is lost.His eyes were getting colder and colder. In fact, he had vaguely noticed that the group of soldiers had been divided into three groups to delay the time. Also freeze it.
"The other two groups of your accomplices have already gone to hell. Do you want to go straight on the road, or do you want me to cut off your whole body piece by piece and feed it to the crows? Anyway, I can't find my companion, so I'm not in a hurry. I can slowly cut you off for three days and three nights."
The two of them knew that since they were being chased, they would not escape death, but when they heard about Ling Chi's death, they couldn't help feeling ashamed and ashamed.One of them gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Actually, your friend was hidden in the darkroom on the mezzanine of the cabin that day. We were just following orders to lure you away. Since it fell into your hands, there is nothing to say. I just ask you to reward us both." a joy."
Shen Wumeng couldn't help but blame herself in her heart for being too careless that day for not checking carefully.In his early years, he would never have been so careless, but this time his concern was chaotic, and he was actually deceived by this little trick.
He suppressed the remorse and self-blame that was surging in his heart, and asked the person calmly: "Who is the person who ordered you?" While holding his hands together, he stared at the two of them, in case they were intercepted by him before Like his accomplices, he suddenly chewed his tongue and committed suicide.
The two looked at each other, but they answered straightforwardly: "We are acting in the name of the master of Lingnan Baiquan Temple."
Baiquan Temple? !Shen Wumeng's pupils shrank slightly! ──The setting sun in the sky was like blood. From a distance, it looked like eyeballs dripping blood. It reminded him of the young Taoist priest who was ruined by him back then.
He never took Baiquan Guan and the young Taoist priest seriously, and he didn't kill the grass and roots, and even raised tigers.The other side's deployment was thorough this time, and it was obvious that they were determined to seek revenge on him.Su Weiming fell into the hands of this group of people, and he was in a dire situation, and he had to suffer.Thinking of this, Shen Wumeng, who had never known panic, felt a chill for the first time.
The crows above the head are crying sadly, and the night has come.
"...White Spring Temple, where is it?..."
In the dark night, two carriages were connected end to end, traveling between the mountain roads.
Not long after, the sound of horseshoes approaching from far ahead, and several fires pierced through the dense night and gradually brightened.Four well-dressed men each held a torch, approached the carriage in front of them, and dismounted together.
Su Weiming was dozing off, but at this time he also opened his eyes, only to hear that several riders were parked outside the carriage, and one of them said respectfully: "This subordinate welcomes the head back."
The man said in a deep voice through the curtain: "I've been away for a long time, but what's wrong? And the two people I ordered to escort back before, how are they doing now?"
"Back to the head, everything is peaceful in view. The two brothers are also under strict supervision, but, just the old man's appearance has changed—" The man's voice suddenly trembled, as if he had thought of some terrible scene , can't go on.
"Oh, I want to see what he looks like?" The man seemed to be interested, he turned his head and smiled at Su Weiming, "I invite you to meet two old acquaintances later."
acquaintance? !Su Weiming couldn't remember any acquaintances he had in the hinterland of Lingnan, but he didn't want to be led by the nose in everything, so he suppressed his doubts and remained calm.The man didn't say much anymore, he just ordered everyone to get on their horses and move forward.
The further the mountain road goes, the more rugged it becomes.The chariots and horses passed through a dark dense forest and then turned up the mountainside. After traveling for another half an hour, they stopped.
The knight and several followers got off the carriage one after another, and Su Weiming was also dragged out of the carriage by the man.
At this moment, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the mountain wind was blowing so hard that the torches in the hands of several people flickered.Everyone was standing on the edge of a cliff, and on the opposite side was a mountain peak.The distance between the two peaks is about ten feet, and they are connected by a natural stone beam bridge that can only be walked by one person.
The clouds under the stone beams were surging, and it was late at night, so it was impossible to see how deep it was under the stone beams.At the end of the stone beam, there are several well-dressed men guarding it.There are several houses built on the flat ground behind him, and some faint lights are showing.
The chariots and horses could not cross the stone beams and were left in place.Su Weiming paid attention, and saw a stable not far away, and a few thatched huts, which were obviously built specially for the feet of the guards.Just as he was about to get a better look, the man pushed his back. "Walk!"
Everyone has filed onto the stone beam.Su Weiming had no choice but to follow.
He had been needled yesterday, and his hands and feet were weak. Halfway to the stone beam, the soles of his feet were on the moss.
The drizzle has stopped, the blue sky is clear, and there are still a few rays of sunshine. A faintly huge rainbow bridge spans the river, casting grotesque reflections on the water.
Su Weiming was busy at the bow of the boat, an iron wok was placed on the clay stove in front of him, and a large pot of fish soup was already boiling.Seeing Shen Wumeng approaching, he filled a bowl and put it on the boat board, scooped another bowl for himself, and ate slowly.
Shen Wumeng sat down and ate two mouthfuls. The soup was delicious, and the fish was so smooth and tender. He couldn't help but look at Su Weiming with admiration. He thought that this little guy was just like Mu Zhe who only knew how to practice swords, except for being lustful and greedy. He has such good cooking skills. "Can you still cook?"
As soon as the words came out, I felt a little regretful, thinking that I would be ignored by Su Weiming again, but Su Weiming said indifferently: "These are not difficult things. I grew up in the countryside, and when the farming was busy, I would I have to help the family who adopted me do some chores, go to the fields to thresh, and the next kitchen is nothing to be fussed about.”
His tone was calm, but Shen Wumeng felt a little sore in his chest when he heard it.Regarding Su Weiming's life experience, he just heard Su Muzhe mention it that day, and he still couldn't understand why Su Tingxuan sent his eldest son to the countryside to be raised by others.Wanting to ask, seeing that Su Weiming was holding a soup bowl and facing the distance of Tianshui in a daze, with lingering worry lingering between his brows, he suppressed the impulse in his heart.
Abandoned by his biological father, it was Su Weiming's deep pain that he couldn't let go of, so why should he go to uncover the old scar in Su Weiming's heart.
For a while, both of them fell into silence, only drinking the fish soup silently.
The wind on the river was so strong that the sails of the boat slapped.As the day approached noon, the river surface was filled with mist, water birds flew by, and there were gradually more and more boats, large and small, passing by.Casting nets for fishing is really lively.
Dozens of wild ducks swam past the side of the boat in groups, not frightened when they saw people, looking left and right, dipping their heads into the water from time to time to eat, or bowing their heads to peck their fur.
Shen Wumeng somehow remembered the day when he first met the boy many years ago.It was clearly a pool of mandarin ducks, but the boy called them ducks.The mandarin ducks drifted away one after another, and the boy pursed his mouth, angry and wronged, which made him laugh...
"Hehe..." The old things in the past suddenly come one after another, and the boy's frown and smile are as vivid as yesterday.He chuckled unconsciously.
"When Mu Zhe was young, he was not as mature as he is now. The first time I saw him by the pond in the backyard of Xiaozhu, he was only six or seven years old. He must have just been bullied at that time, his eyes were red, and he was stupid Yes, I didn’t know the mandarin ducks in the pond, I thought they were ducks, heh, I thought at the time, whose children are these?…”
The memory made Shen Wumeng's brows and eyebrows surprisingly gentle, and a crisp sound of broken porcelain suddenly sounded, interrupting his muttering to himself.
The soup bowl in Su Weiming's hand fell on the board of the boat and broke into several pieces.The fish soup splashed on his hands, it was very hot, but he didn't notice it, and just stared at Shen Wumeng.
"...What's the matter with you?..." Shen Wumeng was a little embarrassed by Su Weiming, coughed and turned his head, and said, "Don't misunderstand that I am those lewd people who only love to play with young children , I have never been interested in children, I just closed my eyes to your brother."
Thinking of the boy's expressions at that time, the smile spread slowly from the corners of his mouth like ripples. "You may not believe it, but the reason I went to Broken Sword Xiaozhu that day was to kill Guan Shanyu and vent my anger on Mo Hufa, my God Cult. At that time, I was still thinking that if your father came out to get in the way, I would even go with him Get rid of it, but I didn’t expect to meet your brother Mu Zhe first, which also made me change my mind and didn’t do anything.”
Su Weiming's lips trembled, as if there was something in his heart that was churning wildly and wanted to spew out, but his throat was convulsed and painful, and he couldn't utter a word, only seeing that Shen Wumeng was still immersed in the memories of the past, and smiled softly: " That may be the so-called fate. I only saw the side of Mu Zhe, and I never forgot about him after returning to Tianyi. After that, I would go to Xiaozhu every year to watch him practice swords, watch him learn piano, watch him meditate, and watch him grow up. Grown up..."
Shen Wumeng turned around, stared at Su Weiming, and said seriously: "I have been waiting for the past 20 years. Do you still think that I am just interested in Mu Zhe now?" Seeing that Su Weiming's face was paler than ever before, he lightly Sigh: "I say this not to beg for mercy from you, but to tell you that no matter how you obstruct me in the future, I will not let go of the curtain."
Su Weiming's face was bleak in the smoke and water, and his heart sank little by little following Shen Wumeng's confession.He wanted to shout loudly, he wanted to tell Shen Wumeng that the one he saw for the first time was not Mu Zhe...but what's the use?
Even if Shen Wumeng knew that he was that stupid kid by the pond back then, would he change his mind and let Mu Zhe go?Year after year, what the man watched and waited for was his younger brother Mu Zhe.
For Yu Shen Wumeng, the first sight when they first met, the night with Cangjian Pavilion, it was all a mistake...
"Heh..." He didn't know why he could squeeze out a smile from his dry throat, he stopped looking at Shen Wumeng, and lowered his head to pick up the broken pieces of the soup bowl.
Today's Weiming seemed a little too quiet... Shen Wumeng frowned and remained silent, waiting for Su Weiming's younger brother to argue with him, but Su Weiming went to the stern after packing up, and never made a sound .
The original delicious fish soup in the bowl suddenly became tasteless, he put the bowl down, and rationally warned himself not to look back, but his eyes looked back at the stern of the boat against his will, trying to find the azure figure as lonely as the river.
The cabin in the middle blocked his sight.
He and Su Weiming were sitting on the bow and stern of the boat, although they were on the same boat, they were as far apart as thousands of mountains and rivers.
When the night fell on the river, the rain that had stopped for most of the day began to fall again.At first it was sporadic, and gradually it got bigger and bigger.The fishing boats on the river are all dim and swaying in the wind and rain, like faint fluorescent lights.
Shen Wumeng was lying in the cabin with his clothes on, listening to the raindrops as big as soybeans constantly crackling on the roof of the cabin tarpaulin, without feeling sleepy.
A little oil lamp illuminated the empty surroundings, and he was alone.
Thinking that after the rain, he asked Su Weiming to enter the cabin to take shelter from the rain to rest, but Su Weiming ignored him, still sitting motionless at the stern, Shen Wumeng couldn't help but sighed deeply again, and then smiled wryly.
What he said during the day must have made Su Weiming more jealous and disgusted with him, and he would rather be in the rain outside the cabin than be in the same room with him.He also thought about dragging Su Weiming in forcibly, but after thinking about Su Weiming's nightmare in the peach forest, he finally gave up this idea.
I don't know when this bleak night rain will stop...
Su Weiming sat under the sail with her knees hugged, her hair and clothes were soaked.Rainwater kept falling on his face, slipped over the corners of his eyes, and trickled down.
He still remembers that when he was a child, he first learned from the farm couple who adopted him that he was not their child, but was sent to foster care by his biological father. It was also raining that day.He cried and cried to go home and find his parents, but when he rushed to the entrance of the village, he realized that he didn't know where his home was or where he should go.
The rain soaked his whole clothes, and he curled up under the tree, weeping and shaking.When his adoptive father found him, he sobbed and begged his adoptive father to take him home, but his adoptive father just told him coldly that his employer had sent a message that he was not allowed to return home.
He wailed.
When he was seven years old, Uncle Jiu came to take him back to Xiaozhu, giving him a glimmer of hope, thinking that his father had changed his mind, but what he got in exchange was a farther and longer exile.Nine years later, he stepped into the house again, thinking that he would finally be able to reunite with his family from now on, but the reality was far crueler than the dream.
From the moment he broke up with his father, he told himself that he would never hope for anything again, because he was an abandoned person by fate and was destined to be alone.
"Hehehe..." He laughed in a low voice, the rainwater entered the mouth, bitter and unspeakable.I have always hated the unfairness of fate, hated my bad luck, and could only live in the shadow of my younger brother.I just found out today that a few years ago, there was a person whose heart fluttered for him at a glance.
Only for him, Su Weiming...
"...haha..." But in the end, it was just a joke played by fate.He will always be a superfluous person.
He raised his head and let the cold rain fall from the sky, washing away the hot liquid that could not be contained in his eyes.
The rain stopped suddenly, and he slowly opened his eyes.
An oil-paper umbrella blocked the rain for him.Most of the man's body was outside the umbrella, and when the rain fell, it was bounced away by a thin layer of purple mist around the man.Shen Wumeng's dark eyes were staring at him with some doubts.
The two looked at each other silently for a long time, Shen Wumeng finally let out a low and inaudible sigh: "Go into the cabin..."
He didn't miss the tears streaming down from the corners of Su Weiming's eyes, and he didn't understand why Su Weiming was so sad.If it were another big man crying in front of his eyes, Shen Wumeng would only despise that man's cowardice and incompetence, but facing Su Weiming, his chest quietly rose, and it was pity that he couldn't deny—even though The brothers of the Su family have already grown up, and in his mind, they still cannot escape the shadow of the children in those days.
"Go in." Worried that Su Weiming would be angry and refused to listen to his advice, he repeated it again, and stretched out his hand towards Su Weiming.
Unexpectedly, Su Weiming didn't refuse, and slowly raised his rain-stained hand, and put it into his palm.
Trembling with cold hands, Shen Wumeng frowned, pulled Su Weiming into the cabin, turned out of the package to change clothes, and wanted to ask Su Weiming to change.Turning around, he saw Su Weiming with a pale complexion, sitting blankly beside the oil lamp, the drops of water were still falling from his hair, and he didn't wipe it off.Shen Wumeng shook her head feebly, and didn't care whether Su Weiming would be angry or not, so she went over to help Su Weiming take off her wet clothes, dried her body, and put on clean clothes.He changed another towel and wiped his long dripping hair.
From beginning to end, Su Weiming remained motionless, letting him manipulate him.
On the contrary, Shen Wumeng felt that the atmosphere was a bit dull and weird. Seeing that his hair was almost dry, he threw down the towel, and handed the only thin felt blanket in the cabin to Su Weiming, saying: "It's not too early, early Some sleep, I'll go to sleep on the opposite side."
"...Shen... Wumeng..." The hoarse whisper sounded hesitantly, like a hook, caught Shen Wumeng's footsteps just about to lift up.
He was surprised, except for the time when Su Weiming was forced to call him "Wumeng", he usually called him "You" directly, or he called him "Shen Dajiaozhu" sourly, why did he suddenly call him? name?He wanted to see what happened on Su Weiming's face, but the latter lowered his head, his black hair covered his side face, so that he couldn't see Su Weiming's expression, so he could only hear Su Weiming whispered slowly: "If I'm not Mu Zhe's brother, will you still care about me?"
Shen Wumeng had never considered this level, and was stunned for a moment.
Just as he was hesitating, Su Weiming smiled calmly: "Just pretend I didn't ask, and you don't have to answer me."
That moment of hesitation had already given him the answer.A man keeps silent because he is afraid that telling the truth will embarrass him.Su Weiming just laughed at his stupidity, knowing that Shen Wumeng was extra tolerant to him because of Mu Zhe's affection, why would he still have illusions to humiliate himself.
He let out a long sigh of relief, lay down, and wrapped himself in the darkness with a felt blanket.
Shen Wumeng was not as free and easy as him, lying on the opposite side, he was still thinking about whether it would be... he couldn't sleep all night, and he didn't feel a little sleepy until dawn, and he closed his eyes hazily.
After a night of wind and rain, the sky is clear and clean, and half a round of sun slowly rises from the junction of water and sky, and the river is dyed orange red.
Su Weiming stood at the bow of the boat in a cloak and watched the sunrise. All the grievances and sorrows of last night seemed to have flowed away with the rain, and his state of mind was just like the river at dawn, peaceful and empty.
I planned to find Muzhe this time and expose Shen Wumeng's true face to Muzhe, but now I completely give up this idea.If Mu Zhe knew that he was humiliated by Shen Wumeng, he would definitely turn against Shen Wumeng.And he didn't want to see anyone get hurt because of him.One is his close relative, and the other...
"Heh!" No matter what he thinks of Shen Wumeng, he can't change anything, just let the secret by the pond be buried in his heart forever.All he cares about right now is his younger brother Mu Zhe.
What should be done to make Shen Wumeng let go?
He smiled bitterly, only to feel that the gradually rising sun was getting more and more dazzling, so he had to look away.
There are already several fishing boats fishing on the nearby river.One of the boats approached Su Weiming's boat, and a young fisherman held a bamboo basket and shouted to Su Weiming: "Master, this is the white fish we just caught this morning. It's fresh! Do you want it, sir?" Buy two and try something new?"
Just as Su Weiming was about to refuse, another fishing boat approached on the right, and the boat owner yelled, "Young Master, don't listen to his nonsense! The fish in his family are small and thin, and they can't compare to the white fish I catch. If you want to buy it, please buy it from me." of!"
Not to be outdone, the young fisherman said angrily, "You are talking nonsense! The fish in my basket are fat and alive. Do you dare to compare your fish?"
"Hey! Why don't you dare?"
The two of you said a word to each other, and the more noisy they became, the louder they became.At this time, the two fishing boats were already approaching, one left and one right. The boss of the boat and the young man set up boards respectively, and angrily carried bamboo baskets onto Su Weiming's boat, competing to send the bamboo baskets to Su Weiming. . "Young master, look at my white fish, buy some."
Although Su Weiming was in a depressed mood, he couldn't help being angry and funny when he saw this, knowing that if he didn't buy two fish, he might not be able to get rid of him, so he was reaching out his hand to take out the silver from his pocket, when he suddenly saw a sly smile in the eyes of the boat boss .
He froze, looked around, and saw several fishing boats approaching quietly, surrounding his boat—the two had deliberately loudly argued before, just to distract him, so that he had no time to care about the actions of other boats.
There is fraud!Su Weiming flipped his wrist lightly, and several golden rays of light shot out, piercing the two people in front of him.
Two low growls were heard accompanied by splashing blood, and the two men's chests and abdomens were dripping with blood. They were shocked by the sword energy and fell into the river, but their expressions were still extremely fierce, and they threw the two bamboo baskets towards Su Weiming with all their strength.
Most likely there are weirdos in the basket!Maybe there are some poisonous snakes and insects hidden, and they must not be allowed to get close!Su Weiming's thoughts turned, and he swung his sword out.
"Pfft!" The two bamboo baskets were shattered by the sword energy at once, and thick black smoke burst out from inside, instantly covering the sunlight, and the surrounding scenery was completely invisible.
Su Weiming was afraid that the black smoke was poisonous, so he hurriedly held his breath, but he had accidentally inhaled a little, and his head became dizzy for a while.He coughed and waved his sleeves, trying to shake off the black smoke around him, but he still couldn't see anything clearly in the darkness.Suddenly, I felt the boat under my feet shake violently, followed by wet shoes and socks.He wakes up after a while—
The bottom of the boat was gouged through!
The river water rushed into the boat quickly.Su Weiming was about to raise his breath to jump up, when suddenly there was a tingling pain in his feet and ankles, and he lost his strength. Then, someone grabbed his legs and dragged him forcefully, and fell into the river.
When the river water poured into his ears, he vaguely heard Shen Wumeng calling his name.
"Wei Ming?" Shen Wumeng jumped out of the cabin, trying to find Su Weiming's trace in the thick smoke.
As early as when the two were arguing, he had already woken up from his sleep. At first, he thought they were just two ordinary fishermen and didn't care. When he saw the black smoke rushing into the cabin, he suddenly knew that something was wrong, so he held his breath. , flew to the deck.
He called several times, but Su Weiming didn't respond, but the ship was tilting and sinking rapidly.Shen Wumeng soared into the air with a clear whistle, passed through the thick black smoke, and then bent lightly in the air, standing firmly on the top of the mast with one foot.Looking down from the heights, you can see four or five fishing boats gathered around. Everyone on the boat is dressed as a fisherman, and they all hold weapons in their hands.
A burly man with a beard seemed to be the leader of the crowd. When he saw Shen Wumeng appearing, he let out an arrow with a loud shout, and he raised his hand first. Several sleeve arrows shot towards Shen Wumeng like shooting stars.
Everyone shot out one after another, and all kinds of hidden weapons screamed through the air, and all kinds of hidden weapons screamed at Shen Wumeng.
Shen Wumeng smiled instead of anger, it seems that he has really been reclusive for too long, even such a low-level character dared to provoke him.Today, maybe it's time to start a killing spree!
Amidst the murderous long laughter, he waved his sleeves, and the strong wind hit the river directly, making two loud noises.Two jets of white water exploded on the surface of the river and rushed for a long time, knocking out all kinds of hidden weapons.Those fishing boats were also smashed into a ball by the raging river waves, and everyone couldn't stand firmly, screaming and falling into the water one after another.
The bearded man almost fell out of the side of the boat, he quickly stretched out his hand to grab the rope at the bow to stabilize his figure, looked up, and was shocked to see Shen Wumeng standing in front of him without making a sound.At this time, he had already regarded this extremely tall and beautiful man as a fierce tiger, bit the bullet and screamed wildly, swinging his sword forward.
The next moment, the long sword was broken, and dozens of pieces pierced into his thighs. His legs softened and he knelt down at Shen Wumeng's feet.
The rest of the people on the boat originally wanted to step forward to help, but seeing that the leader had lost, they were all startled, they winked at each other and jumped into the river, struggling to swim far away.
Shen Wumeng didn't pay any attention to these young men, and just asked the strong man indifferently: "You'd better tell the truth. Where's my companion? Also, who are you instigated by?"
His tone was as gentle as if he was chatting with a friend, and there was even a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, but the strong man felt shuddering all over his body, tremblingly pointing to a fast-moving boat in the distance: "Your dear friend, on that boat On the boat. The villains are also obeying orders, please—ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhssThe whole person threw himself on the board of the boat, with two darts sticking out of his back, which penetrated into the back of his heart.
Shen Wumeng saw at a glance that the person who attacked him was one of the accomplices who fell into the water, he snorted coldly, raised his palm and shot out in the air, the person's head exposed on the water was immediately smashed to pieces, like a smashed watermelon .Shen Wumeng clapped a few more palms, the river surged violently, when the waves subsided a bit, the river surface around him had turned blood red and was full of corpses.
In the middle of the river, there was a shadow, and a steep mountain gradually appeared in front of Shen Wumeng.
The Sacrifice Peak is coming soon... He turned his head, and the small boat pointed by the strong man was sailing with the wind and was far away from him, and it was about to dock.
He took a long breath, jumped into the river, lightly tapped his toes on the top of the waves, and chased the boat straight away like a frightened bird.
"Quick! Go ashore quickly!" The boat was still far away from the river bank, and several people on board were busy setting up the gangway, ready to go ashore.
A sharp palm wind suddenly hit, and the springboard broke into several sections.Before those people came back to their senses, many vital points on their bodies were restrained, unable to move, they watched a man in purple float into the boat.
The cabin was very small, Shen Wumeng scanned all over at a glance, but Su Weiming was not there, his face was covered with frost, and he clicked on one of them's dumb acupoints. "Where are people?"
The man tremblingly said: "You, you found the wrong one, that young master is on that boat..."
Shen Wumeng followed this person's gaze to the other side, her heart sank.A ship had already landed, and the people on board changed to the horses that had been prepared and rode them in several different directions.They were so far apart, and with all his eyesight, he could only recognize two people sitting on each horse, but he didn't know which one was the hijacked Su Weiming.No time to interrogate that person, he flew ashore and chased after the nearest rider.
Seeing Shen Wumeng's purple shadow disappear completely, those people looked at each other, with weird smiles of successful tricks on their faces.
"... Hehe..." A burst of hoarse laughter came from the previously empty cabin.A wooden board piled with fishing nets was suddenly pushed away, revealing the narrow darkroom under the cabin.
A tall man wearing a bamboo hat slowly stood up, dragged the other man by the skirt, and walked out of the dark room together.
That person was Su Weiming, his hair and clothes were soaked, his hands and feet moved after being pushed to the ground by the man, unable to stand up.
Before he was conspired and dragged into the river, he quickly calmed down after being panicked, and tried to shake off the attacker who swam behind him with his backhand, but both shoulders were pricked by sharp needles almost at the same time, and he was as powerless as his legs, and was attacked The victim hugged him by the waist, stepped on the water and floated to the surface of the river, and capsized into the waiting boat.
When hiding in the dark room at the bottom of the bilge, he heard Shen Wumeng's voice without leaking water. Just as he was about to speak, his throat was suddenly strangled by the attacker. The force of the man seemed to crush his Adam's apple. Su Weiming immediately Don't dare to act rashly again.
At this moment, his voice was finally free, he coughed twice, and stared at the man coldly. "Who are you?"
After searching all over my mind, there is no impression of this man, and I can't even remember when I had formed a relationship with this person.Could it be that he is my brother's enemy?
The man ignored him, took off the water on his body and stepped out of the cabin to relieve the acupuncture points of those people.
Su Weiming took the opportunity to gather his true energy and tried his best to stand up, but just as he raised half of his body, the man returned to the cabin and laughed hoarsely: "I underestimated you, you still have the strength to move after being poisoned, but You can't escape."
This man's voice is somewhat familiar... Su Weiming was thinking, the man had already taken out a slender golden needle, the needle was shining with a layer of blue light, obviously poisoned.He quickly pricked Su Weiming's neck with the needle, and said with a sneer, "Give me a good night's sleep."
"So it's you!" Su Weiming finally recognized the man's voice this time—the weird man in the Duhuo Mountain Villa Medical Center who often screamed wildly.However, what is this man trying to catch him for? ...
I want to ask, the poisonous gas has flowed into his brain along with the blood, his eyes turned black, and he fell into the boundless darkness amidst the strange laughter of that person who gradually became distant.
In the summer breeze, the trees on both sides of the official road are shady, and there may be cicadas singing between the branches, which are overwhelmed by the sound of two carriage wheels galloping past.The carriage headed south all the way, leaving only yellow dust tracks.
Su Weiming was lying in the carriage, his brows had not been relaxed for many days.It has been half a month since he was captured, and he tried to escape at first, but every time he recovered a little bit of strength, the man gave him a few more needles, and even searched for his golden sword a few days ago , Su Weiming finally gave up the pointless attempt.
He also tempted the man in an indirect way, trying to figure out the man's intentions.But the man only sneered behind the bamboo hat: "When you get here, you will understand."
Apart from cursing the man in his belly for pretending to be mysterious, Su Weiming had nothing to do, even though he heard those subordinates address the man as "Sect Leader", he racked his brains but couldn't figure out the origin of this man, and he didn't know if this man was going to kill him. Where to go, I only know that this group of people travels day and night and has almost entered the border of Lingnan.
Shen Wumeng certainly didn't expect him to be taken to such a remote place. At this moment, is he still looking for him?Or have you already gone up to the peak of offering sacrifices to inquire about Mu Zhe's whereabouts? ...Su Weiming's heart was ups and downs, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but evoke a self-deprecating smile.Mu Zhe is the one that Shen Wumeng has been dreaming of for many years. How could Shen Wumeng waste time looking for him, but to no avail?
What is he still looking forward to?It's ridiculous...
The man sitting next to him was looking at Su Weiming all the time, and said in a strange way: "You seem quite happy, what are you laughing at? You thought your friend would come to save you soon?"
Su Weiming was stunned for a moment before realizing that the man was talking about Shen Wumeng, and sighed: "I think you made a mistake, that person has nothing to do with me."
"Hahaha..." The man seemed to have heard a big joke, and said with a strange smile: "When I was in Duhuo Villa, I saw him get jealous because of you talking and laughing with that ugly girl, hey, it's irrelevant, who else do you want to lie to? "
He stretched out his rough, blood-red palm to touch Su Weiming's face, the resentment in his laughter made it difficult for Su Weiming to pretend not to hear. "I really didn't expect that the devil Shen Wumeng would fall in love with someone, even a man. With you in my hand, I'm not afraid that Shen Wumeng will kneel down and beg me."
It turned out that what this person had to deal with was Shen Wumeng!Su Weiming understood the clues, and said with a contemptuous smile: "If you have the ability, you can go to him to decide the outcome, but use me to blackmail him, heh!" Before the words finished, the man roared and suddenly Clenching his jaw tightly, Su Weiming's jaw hurt so much that he couldn't speak anymore.
"If you don't want to die so quickly, don't provoke me anymore." The man warned him viciously.
It was almost noon at this time, the carriage slowed down and stopped to rest under the shade of a tree by the side of the road.The man finally withdrew his hand, took out dry food to eat, and threw a few steamed buns to Su Weiming.
Footsteps approached the carriage, and one of them respectfully said, "Master, you have caught what you want."
The car curtain was lifted, and the man passed a bird and left.
The bird's wings were drooping on both sides, apparently just broken, and it sang sadly.Su Weiming was wondering, the man had already grabbed the flying bird, and took off the bamboo hat with the other hand.
"Ah..." Su Weiming couldn't help but stand on end when he suddenly saw a terrifying face full of tumors that looked like a ghost.
"Scared?" The man looked at Su Weiming with his left eye, pointed to his gray right eye, and smiled strangely: "Do you know who blinded my eye?"
Su Weiming's heart turned cold, and he kept silent.
The man was still laughing, the muscles on his face twisted, and pus and blood kept oozing out. "Did you guess it? Hehe, that's right, it's that demon Shen Wumeng. I've practiced poisonous kung fu hard for ten years just to settle this debt with him."
Su Weiming suddenly realized that this man's face became so scary because of his practice.In order to get revenge, he is willing to make himself look like a human and a ghost. It is obvious that he hates Shen Wumeng to the bone.
If it falls into the hands of this person, he will be in danger.Su Weiming was lowering his head and thinking about how to get out as soon as possible, when the short scream of the bird suddenly sounded in his ear, and he looked up in surprise.
The man bit the bird's neck and sucked a few mouthfuls of blood, threw the bird's carcass out of the car, licked his scarlet lips, and grinned at the shocked Su Weiming, "Have you never seen a human being drink bird blood? Hey!" ──" He suddenly leaned over and grabbed Su Weiming's face, his lips almost touched Su Weiming's ear, and said slowly, "I'm telling you, human blood actually tastes better."
In the breath sprayed on the face, there was still a bloody smell, and it was even more threatening.Su Weiming's scalp was numb, and the thought of escape that had just appeared in the nod also disappeared.
If he wanted to escape, he had to wait until he had full confidence, he didn't want to end up like this bird.
A few crows crowed through the dark sky, adding a bit of desolation to the dilapidated archway standing alone at the end of the village.Yi rode speeding past under the setting sun, and heard the crow crowing, immediately the two of them spat at the same time, calling it unlucky.
"After passing this village, find a place to rest, and go on the road tomorrow. After walking for so many days, I still can't see that person catching up. I think he has probably lost track of him. We don't need to go on the road." The man holding the rein was just Speaking vigorously, a purple shadow suddenly passed over their heads and landed in front of the horse.
The horse was galloping fast, and raised its hoof to slam into Ziying, and was swept by Ziying's forelegs in an instant. There were two "clicks", and the leg bones snapped. down.
Those two raised their heads in embarrassment, just as they saw that Zi Ying was a strangely handsome man in purple clothes, a few wisps of finger wind struck from the air, and hit the key points of the two of them.
Shen Wumeng looked at the two of them coldly.That day he chased a horse by the river, and stopped it the next day, but Su Weiming was not seen. He pressed the two knights to find out that Su Weiming was on another horse and would be sent to Fengtian Mansion.Then he rushed to the direction of Fengtian Mansion, inquired and chased another horse along the way, but Su Weiming was also missing, and the two knights said that Su Weiming was taken to the south of Shu by the knight on the third horse.He didn't even rest for a moment, and immediately embarked on the path of pursuit.
Searching for days has almost exhausted his patience, but there is still no one he is looking for, and the last hope is lost.His eyes were getting colder and colder. In fact, he had vaguely noticed that the group of soldiers had been divided into three groups to delay the time. Also freeze it.
"The other two groups of your accomplices have already gone to hell. Do you want to go straight on the road, or do you want me to cut off your whole body piece by piece and feed it to the crows? Anyway, I can't find my companion, so I'm not in a hurry. I can slowly cut you off for three days and three nights."
The two of them knew that since they were being chased, they would not escape death, but when they heard about Ling Chi's death, they couldn't help feeling ashamed and ashamed.One of them gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "Actually, your friend was hidden in the darkroom on the mezzanine of the cabin that day. We were just following orders to lure you away. Since it fell into your hands, there is nothing to say. I just ask you to reward us both." a joy."
Shen Wumeng couldn't help but blame herself in her heart for being too careless that day for not checking carefully.In his early years, he would never have been so careless, but this time his concern was chaotic, and he was actually deceived by this little trick.
He suppressed the remorse and self-blame that was surging in his heart, and asked the person calmly: "Who is the person who ordered you?" While holding his hands together, he stared at the two of them, in case they were intercepted by him before Like his accomplices, he suddenly chewed his tongue and committed suicide.
The two looked at each other, but they answered straightforwardly: "We are acting in the name of the master of Lingnan Baiquan Temple."
Baiquan Temple? !Shen Wumeng's pupils shrank slightly! ──The setting sun in the sky was like blood. From a distance, it looked like eyeballs dripping blood. It reminded him of the young Taoist priest who was ruined by him back then.
He never took Baiquan Guan and the young Taoist priest seriously, and he didn't kill the grass and roots, and even raised tigers.The other side's deployment was thorough this time, and it was obvious that they were determined to seek revenge on him.Su Weiming fell into the hands of this group of people, and he was in a dire situation, and he had to suffer.Thinking of this, Shen Wumeng, who had never known panic, felt a chill for the first time.
The crows above the head are crying sadly, and the night has come.
"...White Spring Temple, where is it?..."
In the dark night, two carriages were connected end to end, traveling between the mountain roads.
Not long after, the sound of horseshoes approaching from far ahead, and several fires pierced through the dense night and gradually brightened.Four well-dressed men each held a torch, approached the carriage in front of them, and dismounted together.
Su Weiming was dozing off, but at this time he also opened his eyes, only to hear that several riders were parked outside the carriage, and one of them said respectfully: "This subordinate welcomes the head back."
The man said in a deep voice through the curtain: "I've been away for a long time, but what's wrong? And the two people I ordered to escort back before, how are they doing now?"
"Back to the head, everything is peaceful in view. The two brothers are also under strict supervision, but, just the old man's appearance has changed—" The man's voice suddenly trembled, as if he had thought of some terrible scene , can't go on.
"Oh, I want to see what he looks like?" The man seemed to be interested, he turned his head and smiled at Su Weiming, "I invite you to meet two old acquaintances later."
acquaintance? !Su Weiming couldn't remember any acquaintances he had in the hinterland of Lingnan, but he didn't want to be led by the nose in everything, so he suppressed his doubts and remained calm.The man didn't say much anymore, he just ordered everyone to get on their horses and move forward.
The further the mountain road goes, the more rugged it becomes.The chariots and horses passed through a dark dense forest and then turned up the mountainside. After traveling for another half an hour, they stopped.
The knight and several followers got off the carriage one after another, and Su Weiming was also dragged out of the carriage by the man.
At this moment, the moon was in the middle of the sky, and the mountain wind was blowing so hard that the torches in the hands of several people flickered.Everyone was standing on the edge of a cliff, and on the opposite side was a mountain peak.The distance between the two peaks is about ten feet, and they are connected by a natural stone beam bridge that can only be walked by one person.
The clouds under the stone beams were surging, and it was late at night, so it was impossible to see how deep it was under the stone beams.At the end of the stone beam, there are several well-dressed men guarding it.There are several houses built on the flat ground behind him, and some faint lights are showing.
The chariots and horses could not cross the stone beams and were left in place.Su Weiming paid attention, and saw a stable not far away, and a few thatched huts, which were obviously built specially for the feet of the guards.Just as he was about to get a better look, the man pushed his back. "Walk!"
Everyone has filed onto the stone beam.Su Weiming had no choice but to follow.
He had been needled yesterday, and his hands and feet were weak. Halfway to the stone beam, the soles of his feet were on the moss.
