against fate

, I am afraid that one day I will be arrested quietly and no one will care. "

"I heard that there are soldiers outside the pass aggressively invading, and the court is in short supply of manpower. Could it be that the emperor or the generals of the court want to arrest people to serve as soldiers?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"Go and see first, everything will be clear." Lin Suiyan walked forward with his hands behind his back.

13. Capture soldiers

◎Thank you, son, for your entrustment. ◎

Luo Zichuan let out a breath slowly.Turning around, I saw the court soldier lying stiffly on the ground, and Lu Yunqiu and Lin Suiyan didn't care about it.

"Bury him." Luo Zichuan whispered.

Lin Suiyan smiled and said, "He is not worthy."

"Brother Zichuan, the young master has always been hostile to people in the court, you must never..." Lu Yunqiu said from the side.

"Is it because of General Lin Shuo's death?" Luo Zichuan asked.

Lu Yunqiu lowered his head, acquiescing.

The sky was getting darker, and the last ray of light disappeared, replaced by a silver-black sky and faint moonlight.The three of them walked endlessly for a while, and finally Luo Zichuan couldn't help but said, "My lord, are you sure we're going the right way?"

"Not sure." Lin Suiyan replied.

"Then you still..."

"When you came here, did you notice that there were soldiers stationed here?" Lin Suiyan asked.

"Never." Luo Zichuan.

"That's right. The soldier just now obviously knew this place well, and must have been stationed for more than a day or two. But to save trouble, I kept walking close to the edge, but when I came here, I didn't notice that there were imperial soldiers stationed here. I can only explain Where they are stationed, they are on the left and right of us."

"So, the place we want to rest today is on the same level as the place where the imperial army is stationed?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"Almost. And have you noticed that the drunken soldier has been leading you from right to left, basically in the same direction, without turning too much." Lin Sui said.

Luo Zichuan didn't notice this.At the beginning, he was so focused on how to deal with that person that he really had no time to look at the direction.

"You followed me already?" Luo Zichuan suddenly realized.

"My subordinate didn't come back from his walk. How can I say that I have a responsibility too." Lin Suiyan said flatly.

"Since you followed, why didn't you make a move when you watched him fight with me?" Luo Zichuan was obviously annoyed.

"Being my subordinate, you won't be able to defeat even a court soldier. Besides, I need to see how your Excellency's kung fu is." Lin Suiyan said.

Luo Zichuan was silent.

A cloud blocked the moonlight, and it was dark all around.The three of them were used to walking at night, and they didn't have any difficulty moving forward in the dark.

Lin Suiyan paused suddenly.

There was a gleam of light in front of the eyes, and more than a dozen court soldiers in armor were chatting and laughing beside the fire, and the bursts of laughter went straight to the sky.

"Yunqiu." Lin Suiyan's black eyes became deeper and deeper in the dark night. "What were they doing?"

Lu Yunqiu squinted his eyes, and suddenly Lin Suiyan raised his eyebrows, and the three of them leaned aside together.

"Are they all drunk?" Luo Zichuan said.

"Yes. Look at them all blushing and talking nonsense..." Lin Suiyan snorted coldly.

Suddenly, a person ran out staggeringly, in ragged clothes, rolling and crawling.A few court soldiers noticed that they pulled out the scabbard, and straight and cold blades lay across his neck.

One of them cursed and said, "Damn it, I won't be clean even if I drink wine!"

With a wave of his hand, he saw that the man's head was about to fall to the ground.In the blink of an eye, a voice suddenly shouted: "Stop!"

The man shook his hands.Looking up, the source of the voice was actually a young man.

He sighed: "Nowadays there are not many people who can be used by us, and there are no more than a hundred people arrested in the whole place. You kill people casually like this, and offend the prince, what should we do!"

"Yes, young master taught you the right thing." He limply dropped his sword, crossed his legs and continued to drink.

"However, if you want to escape, you will always be punished." He threw a whip over, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Several people scrambled to grab it, muttering "call you dishonest" in their mouths, but they fought harder than anyone else.After several exclamations, Luo Zichuan turned his head away, not wanting to look again.

After all, he grew up in Yunchuan Valley, and he had never seen such a bloody scene.

He glanced away and saw the black soft whip tucked around Lin Suiyan's waist.

Several court soldiers were tired and sat down on the grass again.Not long after, a few more people came out and dragged away the unconscious man lying on the ground.

"Hey, what are you looking at?" Lin Sui said.

Luo Zichuan raised his face, just in time to meet a pair of deep eyes hidden under the mask.

"It's nothing." Luo Zichuan turned his attention to the green grass on the ground.

Lin Suiyan smiled, and said softly, "Yunqiu, don't you think the guy throwing the whip looks familiar?"

Lu Yunqiu thought for a while, then suddenly said in surprise: "That's right, young master! I remembered! Doesn't this person look exactly like Yu Yuan?"

"Yu Yuan? That crazy general at the time?" Luo Zichuan was suspicious.

"No." Lin Sui said.

"I remember clearly at the time that General Yuyuan was indeed crazy back then, but this one was not stupid at all. And the age is not right, that General Yuyuan may have stubble on his face now, but What about this one?"

"I heard that Yu Yuan once had a brother whose surname was Yu and whose name was Xuan. He must have been this person. He was not as good at martial arts as Yu Yuan, but his scheming was not inferior to his brother. After his brother went mad, he lost his backer, so he relied on The trick is to get under the command of the fifth prince of the current dynasty, and the dog fights the power of others..." Lu Yunqiu suddenly said in surprise: "Back then, he also participated in the encirclement and suppression of the general!"

"It's really interesting." Lin Suiyan raised the corner of his mouth.

"Fifth prince?" Luo Zichuan's focus was obviously different, "Is it the fifth prince who came from a wrong place?"

"It's not that the origin is wrong, it's very wrong. Do you know that there were six princes in the previous dynasty? He is the emperor's heir, but he has a close relationship with his uncle, King Jing, and as far as I know, this King Jing also loves him very much." This nephew. Later, the emperor passed away, and the crown prince also died. King Jing should inherit the throne as a matter of course. Those who had anything to do with the emperor were cleared up for no apparent reason. Only the sixth prince survived and was taken in. As the adopted son of the new emperor, ranked fourth, he will become the 'fifth prince'."

"Many strange things." Luo Zichuan commented.

"Of course, but who can understand the mind of the current sage?" Lin Sui said.

"The fifth prince is arresting people wantonly in the south and cultivating his power, won't the emperor care?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"I think the emperor might not know about it." Lin Suiyan smiled.

"what?"

"There are many refugees in the south, and there are many sects like Que Yuling. If he leads troops here under the banner of 'removing harm for the people' and 'eliminating banditry', do you think the emperor will agree?" Lin Suiyan wondered road.

"The fifth prince is planning to raise troops to rebel?" Lin Suiyan seemed to have heard a big joke, and laughed from ear to ear. "No way, no matter how badly His Majesty treats him today, he spared his life and gave him the title of 'Fifth Prince of the Dynasty'. He wants to repay his kindness and revenge. He is too ignorant of current affairs!" Lin Sui I sincerely sigh.

"My lord, will these people be killed or not?" Lu Yunqiu asked.

"I'm not interested in rebellion. But that Mr. Yuxuan must die." Lin Suiyan said firmly.

"Hey—" Lin Suiyan called Luo Zichuan, "Can you go back by yourself?"

"Where are you going?" Luo Zichuan held the grass aside, and was startled when he heard someone calling him.

"Go back to the Lost Forest." Lin Suiyan explained, "You know the way. Or you can go back to Yunchuan Valley and go to the place you should go. I thought I was going to go far to worship my father, but I didn't expect to come across On the former enemy."

"You and Lu Yunqiu are going to challenge so many imperial soldiers? For what? Just because Yu Xuan once surrounded and suppressed the army led by your father?" Luo Zichuan was surprised.

"Yes." Lin Sui said without hesitation.

"You are like hitting a rock with an egg!" Luo Zichuan said truthfully.

"Brother Zi Chuan, there is no need to be so excited. Young Master's martial arts are far better than you imagined." Lu Yunqiu said.

"No matter how powerful he is, can he beat these people?" Luo Zichuan asked in surprise.

"Why not. Mr. Chen, do you know how General Yu Yuan went crazy back then?" Lin Suiyan raised his eyebrows.

"At the beginning, I broke through even more heavily guarded military tents than this one, and sneaked in quietly for several days in a row, and drove the current general crazy with whipping. This old, weak, sick and disabled is nothing to worry about." Lin Sui said.From Luo Zichuan's point of view, the arrogance in the words does not need to be explained.

"You left me here?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"That's not what it means. It's dangerous to go here. You are not good enough to survive under the imperial army. You are not suitable to follow us." Lin Sui said.

"I came out with you and traveled all the way for several days. Except for daily food, clothing, housing and transportation, I have never received a single favor from you." Luo Zichuan said, "Now you want to abandon me in the barren mountains, I have no The brain that remembers the way, let me find the way out alone, is it because I want to kill me purely?"

"I don't mean that." Lin Sui said.

"I want to leave this time but I can't. Mr. Lin, if you want me to die, just say so." Luo Zichuan's eyes darkened.

"I didn't mean that..." Lin Suiyan was a little mad, "You misunderstood me! Yunqiu and I were going to kill people, and the people around the prince were the ones who killed people. Leaving aside the symptoms in the future, let's just say that at this time A sword has no eyes, if it hurts you, whose fault is it?"

"Forget me, that's all right. You don't have to protect me, and you don't have to treat me as a burden." You are dead if you are lying horizontally, and you are dead if you are standing vertically, so there is no need to be so particular about it.

"Mr. Chen is so flattered. Since your Excellency is so willing to share weal and woe, I am of course grateful." Lin Suiyan nodded.

His eyes wandered not far away, and suddenly became a little sharp.

"They have a large number of people. As the saying goes, 'capture the thief before capturing the king', if Yuxuan is killed, those court dogs will be leaderless. Yunqiu, I need you to lure these people away later." Lin Suiyan commanded.

"Yes." Lu Yunqiu nodded slightly.

"If it's not true, kill it. Remember not to make too much noise." Lin Suiyan said calmly.

"Yes, son."

"For this son surnamed Chen, since you insist on following me, follow me. You grab the sword first, Yuxuan is not good at martial arts, and with your body skills, delaying for a moment is not too much But if you, a pampered young man, sees something bloody, don't cry in fright!"

"I'm worried about Mr. Lao." Luo Zichuan said.

"It's done. Yunqiu, you can go." Lin Suiyan nodded.

Lu Yunqiu turned his cloth boots, and his black clothes disappeared into the vast darkness.

Luo Zichuan walked forward, and suddenly a voice came from behind: "Hey, Zichuan, if there is someone who is not good for you later, don't think about killing him, it's better to run first. You must run quickly, Did you hear Saya running away!"

Luo Zichuan thought in his heart that even without his order, he would have played 36 tricks, running is the best plan.But after all Lin Suiyan had good intentions, Luo Zichuan pursed his lips and said leisurely, "Thank you, my lord, for your entrustment."

14. Destroy the Army

◎My lord, we should do good deeds and save the refugees who were arrested! ◎

"Fuck, why didn't Mu Jiu come back after going to pee?" a soldier yelled.

"It's because I drank too much, so I can't come back! Hahahahaha!" Another soldier joked.

"Hey, Boss, do you want to go look for it?"

"Find a fart! Tell him to come back by himself, or die there if he doesn't come back! Bad luck, drink and drink!" He raised the bottle and said boldly.

"Listen to the boss! Drink!" The soldiers picked up the jug and poured the spicy wine into their mouths.

Just at this time, Lu Yunqiu, who had been waiting for a long time, wiped the dart in his hand, and tossed it with the wind, the dart flew out with a "chuss", blending with the sound of the wind.A soldier holding a jug suddenly fell down.

The jug fell, and the wine was poured all over the floor.

"Hey, hey, Lao Liang, Lao Liang!" The soldiers were frightened, and threw down the jug, all of them cheered up, raised their weapons, and looked around.

"Who is that!" a soldier yelled.Lu Yunqiu turned around, and let Qing Gong fly away gracefully.

"Hurry up!" The soldier who claimed to be the boss ordered, and then everyone rushed.Lu Yunqiu raised his lips, touched the ground with his black boots, and turned around silently. Then he waved his right hand, and rows of fine darts flew out, hitting the soldier's face directly, blood rushing two feet high.

At the same time, inside the military tent, Yu Xuan asked anxiously, "What happened outside?"

There were four soldiers standing outside the military tent, and one of them was a slightly burly man who said, "Master Hui, there are assassins out there."

"What?" Yu Xuan pursed his lips and said, "Then what should I do!"

"Young master, don't worry, someone has already gone to arrest him. It won't be long before we can see the assassin's head!"

"I hope so." Yu Xuan hypnotized.

Not far away, Lin Suiyan Luo Zichuan was hiding on the side of the military tent.Lin Suiyan tapped left and right with his slender fingers, and finally murmured: "This fellow Yuxuan is really afraid of death. Generally, only two soldiers are left outside the general's tent to protect him, but this person sent a total of four soldiers to the left and right. .It can be described as an alternative."

"Hey, Zichuan, those four, you can find a way to solve them, and you have to solve them silently, can you do it?" Lin Suiyan asked.

"Should, can't." Luo Zichuan was extremely modest.

"Can the dart be thrown? Can it be [-]% at once?" Lin Suiyan asked again.

"Me neither." Luo Zichuan pursed his lips.

"Ancestor, you are really my ancestor." Lin Suiyan sighed and said, "Young Master Chen, you don't even dare to kill people!"

Luo Zichuan lowered his head and did not answer.

"Hey ancestors, I'm killing people, not just playing around!" Lin Suiyan thought.

"That's all." He took out a few darts from his sleeve, his eyes froze, and four darts flew out one after another, heading straight for the soldier's neck.They were dead before they could even cry out in pain.

"You can also play darts?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"It's sort of, but it's not very slippery."

This sentence is too modest, although Lin Suiyan's dart throwing technique is not as good as Lu Yunqiu's, but the dart hits the vital point, and he doesn't give the enemy time to breathe.

Luo Zichuan tiptoed forward, Lin Suiyan casually grabbed a sword from the soldier's hand and threw it to him.

"You take it." He said.

In the military tent, Yu Xuan was restless, and finally couldn't stand it any longer, and asked, "How is it outside?"

It is a pity that those four soldiers are already dead, and no one answered.

"Hey! Hey!" He yelled several times, realizing that something was wrong, and when he was about to run for his life, someone suddenly walked in.

The man was dressed in black, and his fair face was mostly covered by a mask.In Yu Xuan's eyes, this person is no different from the god of death who took his life!

"Whip, whip, whip, whip Yijun!" Yu Xuan was so frightened that he couldn't finish his sentence.

A few years ago, he witnessed his elder brother going mad and missing.And I know that everything is thanks to a man named 'Bian Yijun'.Although he didn't know what Bian Yijun looked like, he heard that he often walked around at night in black clothes, with a mask covering half of his face, and a soft whip in his right hand.The person in front of him was in every way consistent with the person described by the soldiers.

"Yu Xuan, Mr. Yu." Lin Suiyan smiled.

"You, what are you doing!" Yu Xuan pretended to be calm.

"Come here in the middle of the night, of course it's life-threatening." Lin Suiyan pretended to be relaxed.

"I, I have never been in trouble with Your Excellency, why did you kill me!" Yu Xuan took two steps back and saw the plain-clothed boy standing behind Mr. Bian Yi.

"It's because you have never been married to me, so you can think that you are not just going out for a stroll. When you see this by chance, you don't like it, so you just want to kill him." Lin Suiyan weighed his whip.

"I can be the person next to the Fifth Prince!" Yu Xuan emphasized on purpose.

"General Yuyuan is Your Excellency's elder brother. I dare to drive the general appointed by His Majesty to go crazy. I should have the guts to offend a fifth prince." Lin Sui said.

"You can't kill me. The Fifth Prince begs His Majesty to let me stay here. If something happens to me, you won't be able to afford it!" Yu Xuan said.

"Did Your Majesty allow the fifth prince to cultivate his influence in the south?" Lin Suiyan raised his eyebrows.

"If my predictions are correct, the fifth prince is just a cover to guard this place. It is false to suppress martial arts sects, but it is true to arrest refugees and cultivate an army! What will happen if your majesty knows what the fifth prince is doing? He intends to rebel No one can bear the charge of treason." Lin Suiyan said calmly.

"You..." Yu Xuan looked around nervously, the young man behind Yijun suddenly pulled out his sword, flicked his wrist, and passed in front of Yu Xuan.

Yu Xuan's sword was still on the wooden table in the distance, he frantically blocked it with his hands while approaching the wooden table.Suddenly, a long whip came rushing like a poisonous snake, circled around the sword twice, then withdrew suddenly, and the sword fell into Lin Suiyan's hand.

"This sword is a good sword. Zichuan, this sword will belong to you from now on." Lin Suiyan smiled.

Luo Zichuan's swordsmanship was mediocre, but Yuxuan just grasped this point, hiding when he should hide, and counterattack when he should counterattack.Suddenly, Yu Xuan put his hand against the blade of the sword lightly, spun it half a circle, and slapped it suddenly. Luo Zichuan took two steps back and swept across without showing any weakness. The next moment, Yu Xuan had a sword wound on his face.

The right side of his face was in hot pain, but Yu Xuan couldn't care about it.The person in front of him looks weak, but he fights like a loach in water, very difficult to deal with!

Luo Zichuan split his leg, and the sword ran along Yuxuan's arm to his back like a swimming dragon.With a twist of his wrist, the blade was aimed at his throat.

"Sure enough, he is unbeatable..." Luo Zichuan secretly sighed.

He is very self-aware of his martial arts.Those who can beat him are martial arts masters, court officers and soldiers, etc., but those who can't beat him are nothing more than those frail scholars who can only play tricks.This person is the person next to the prince, but his martial arts can be broken with a single poke. He is a typical bullshit.

"Yes, there is progress." Lin Suiyan praised.

"You, you let me go, what do you want? Money? Status? I can satisfy you." Yu Xuan said.

"Money, I have enough; status, I am very satisfied now. I hope you can understand that I am here today to kill you." Lin Suiyan said lightly, "Zi Chuan, kill it!"

Luo Zichuan did not make a move for a long time.

"Don't you dare?" Lin Suiyan frowned, with a worried look on his face, "You are really a 'doctor's benevolence', you don't even dare to kill anyone, hey..."

Suddenly, Yu Xuan shrank his neck, pulled away the blade of the sword with lightning speed, and ran away like flying.Lin Suiyan moved his fingers slightly, and a small dart flew out through Yu Xuan's chest.

Lin Suiyan took two steps, took the dart that fell to the ground, and smeared the blood on Yuxuan's clothes.Looking back, Luo Zichuan looked stupid.

"Are you okay?" Lin Suiyan turned around and asked.

"I...I'm fine." Luo Zichuan replied hesitantly.

He suppressed his smile, murderous eyes revealed, "Luo Zichuan, let me tell you. In troubled times, there are many things you can't help yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you, and I don't force you to kill people, but at certain times, Only a dead person will not pose a threat to others. If he didn't just push away the blade of your sword across his neck, but kicked you and hit you once, then the injury you suffered for no reason will be irrelevant. deal with it."

"After all, you are a person cultivated by Yunchuangu, and your habits are no different from that of a doctor. But what you have to understand is that what you use is a sword, what you break into is a martial arts, and what you do is a martial artist, not a doctor. The matter of killing Inevitably, no one will protect you forever, you have to understand the truth of 'If someone else dies, I die'."

"I see..." Luo Zichuan lowered his head.

"Your father Chen Jian and Luo Yizhi are good friends. After you died, Luo Yizhi should treat you like your own son. But not everyone in the world is your father's confidant. At certain times, if you don't kill them, They're coming to kill you."

Luo Zichuan was silent.Lin Suiyan regretted it a little. He grew up in a bloody escape and had a heart of stone.And Luo Zichuan was not entrusted with the mission of revenge, whether he is malicious or not, has nothing to do with him.Even today's matter, he does not need to participate.

There was a sound outside the military tent, Lin Suiyan walked out quickly and saw Lu Yunqiu standing aside.

Wearing black clothes, but it seems that there is an indescribable... embarrassment.

"My lord, it's all settled." Lu Yunqiu said.

Lin Suiyan looked at it for a moment, then his eyes fell on Lu Yunqiu's left arm which was covered by his right hand.

"What happened to your hand?" Lin Suiyan asked.

"It's okay, son." Lu Yunqiu thought about fooling around, Lin Suiyan grabbed Lu Yunqiu's hand and threw it to the right, only to see a cut in his clothes, and the blood melted on the black clothes. It can't be seen clearly from a distance, but the clothes near the wound have already been soaked in blood, blending with black.

"How did this happen?" Lin Sui said.

"Cough! My lord, I wanted to kill those soldiers with a single dart, but I didn't expect one of them to be stubborn. I was negligent for a while, and I was slashed with a sword." Lu Yunqiu laughed innocently.

"Can you bandage yourself?" Lin Sui said.

"I can, I can, oh, I won't bleed after a while, you don't have to worry about it, young master!"

"Okay." Lin Sui said.

Luo Zichuan walked aside and said in a low voice timidly: "There should be refugees locked here, shall we release them?"

"Brother Zi Chuan said exactly what he said!" Lu Yunqiu said, "My lord, we should do good deeds and save those refugees who were arrested!"

"Okay." Lin Sui said.

15. Rescue

◎Maybe everyone has different beliefs, but it’s too ridiculous to walk around the rivers and lakes with the idea of ​​a doctor, isn’t it? ◎

Most of the soldiers had already been wiped out, the three of them walked out, Luo Zichuan suddenly saw a huge cage built a few meters away, with several torches placed outside the cage, and five soldiers were guarding beside the torches.

"What is that?" Luo Zichuan said softly in order not to attract the attention of the guarding soldiers.

Following Luo Zichuan's gaze, Lu Yunqiu said, "Could it be that this is where the refugees are detained?"

"Go and see." Lin Sui said.

The three groped all the way and hid in the unguarded part of the wooden cage.It was very late, and the three of them walked lightly, and the five probably thought that there was just a gust of wind blowing.

The five soldiers performed their duty conscientiously, staring ahead alertly, and never communicated.This also made it impossible for Luo Zichuan and others to know what kind of people were imprisoned in the giant wooden cage.

Lin Suiyan raised his long eyebrows to signal, Lu Yunqiu understood, and said to Luo Zichuan with a wave of his mouth: "Young master solves five, I solve four, and you solve one."

Luo Zichuan nodded.Lin Suiyan stretched out his hand, and his slender, white fingers were particularly blurred in the vast night. Luo Zichuan could only clearly see Lin Suiyan stretched out three fingers based on the faint moonlight.

Then he closed one finger, and then another, and when all three fingers were closed, Lin Suiyan jumped out first.He knew that the soft whip can teach people a lesson, but it can't take people's lives in times of crisis, so Lin Qian specially asked Lin Zhong's disciples to shoot several darts so that he could use them to save his life in times of crisis.Now it seems that he really has the foresight!

Lu Yunqiu threw darts, which can be described as "fast" and "many", although all the darts hit were killed, but looking at the dart throwers, the darts thrown were less vicious.Lin Suiyan, on the other hand, is just the opposite. He would rather spend more time throwing more times than give others a chance.

Luo Zichuan drew out his sword, found a panicked soldier, and kicked him with his foot.He trembled, and when he stretched out his hand and drew his sword, Luo Zichuan slashed with the knife, and the soldier lay down stiffly.

Compared with the bloody way Lin Suiyan and Lu Yunqiu dealt with the soldiers, they were called "fast", "accurate", and "ruthless".But Luo Zichuan just knocked the soldier unconscious very gently.Lin Suiyan glanced twice and saw the lock on the wooden cage.

Lin Suiyan stroked his hair and asked Lu Yunqiu, "Yunqiu, do you have something to unlock?"

"My lord, I seem to..." he said, "No."

Luo Zichuan tilted his head, took a wooden hairpin from his hair, and asked, "Is this okay?"

"Okay." Lin Suiyan took it.Align the pointed end of the hairpin with the keyhole, shake it left and right, and the lock snapped open.

Lin Suiyan threw down the lock and opened the door.By the moonlight, I vaguely saw a few haggard faces with bloodstains at the corners of their mouths. They looked terrified, but they couldn't speak a word as if they were cursed.

"We are here to save you." Lu Yunqiu said, "Let's go."

Everyone's eyes scanned the room among the three, and suddenly they saw the soft whip tucked around Lin Suiyan's waist, and the people in front desperately backed away, causing a little restlessness.

"Don't be afraid, we are really here to save you." Luo Zichuan comforted him, and when he got closer, he realized that everyone's wrists were tightly bound and they couldn't move.

Luo Zichuan took off his sword and cut the hemp rope on the wrist of one of them.

"Let's go," he said.

The man looked left and right, and suddenly ran out like oil on the soles of his feet.Luo Zichuan then cut the rope and released them all.

However, what he didn't know was that those people were all fleeing refugees, and they didn't have money or silver to spend when they were released. It was just the difference between early death and late death.

Luo Zichuan heaved a sigh of relief, stepped out of the wooden cage, and suddenly saw a ten-year-old child looking at him ignorantly.

"Brother..." he called out.

Luo Zichuan laughed, his brows and eyes curved.

"You look like my brother," he said.

"Good boy." Luo Zichuan said, "Hurry up and go home."

"I can't find my home." He said stupidly, "My parents are dead, my house...was burned. My brother was killed by soldiers to protect me."

For a moment, Luo Zichuan felt uncomfortable.He looked back at Lin Suiyan, his eyes were calm.At certain moments, Luo Zichuan had to wonder how the face hidden under the mask could be so unhappy.

"Brother, can I follow you?" he asked.

Luo Zichuan wanted to refuse, but seeing the child's expression, he couldn't bear it all of a sudden.

"What's your name?" Luo Zichuan asked.

"My name is Xiao Rong." He replied.

Luo Zichuan nodded, seeing that Lin Suiyan's facial expression didn't change much, but Lu Yunqiu winked.Luo Zichuan took two steps, "What's wrong, Brother Yunqiu?"

"Brother Zi Chuan! This child's origin is unknown. Young Master has offended the people of the court to the bottom. What if he is a spy sent by the court and wants to harm Young Master?"

"No way." Luo Zichuan said, "How pitiful he is."

"Young master?" Luo Zichuan asked with a slight tilt of his head.

Lin Suiyan blinked his eyes and looked like "it's none of his business".Walking forward, he put his hand on the boy's head.Xiao Rong is a good boy, he can tell good from bad, seeing the young man in black with aura in front of him, he can't help but bow his head, looking like a good boy.

Lin Suiyan chuckled, "With you, what can you do to help?"

"I... I can sing, feed chickens, pick manure, cook..." His voice became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a buzzing noise the size of a mosquito.

"Brother..." He glanced at Lin Suiyan from the corner of his eye from time to time, looking very pitiful

"You can take it if you like, anyway, you don't need to open your mouth." Lin Suiyan said with relief.

"Young Master?" Lu Yunqiu was quite surprised.

Suddenly, a gust of cold air hit Luo Zichuan's chest, and he dodged quickly, but it was still a step too late - the hand hanging on the side was cut with a long cut by the sword.

Luo Zichuan looked back, but saw that in front of the wooden cage, one of the five soldiers who should have been crawling on the ground was looking up at him with an evil smile.He didn't have any wounds on his body, Luo Zichuan could basically be sure that this person was the one he knocked unconscious with his hand knife.Seeing that another sword was coming, Luo Zichuan pulled out the sword behind his back and stabbed hard.Blood was splashed everywhere, and the soldier spat out a mouthful of blood, and his head hit the ground straight.

Him, murdered?

Luo Zichuan's hand shook twice for no reason, and the sword fell to the ground with a "bang".There was a smear of bright red on the tail of the sword, the blood was not his own, but someone else's, the blood of the person he killed.

Perhaps Xiao Rong had experienced too many things, but he didn't cry when he saw this kind of thing, but trembled with fear.His eyes were full of innocence, Lin Suiyan said: "Okay, don't be afraid."

Lin Suiyan took two steps, saw that Luo Zichuan was still in a daze, and said casually, "Is the wound on your hand okay?"

"No, it's okay..." Luo Zichuan came back to his senses, fear in his eyes.

I killed, I killed...

"Okay, don't think about it, get ready to go."

Luo Zichuan raised his head slightly, his lips were dry.Lin Suiyan ordered: "Let's go."

Four people—three teenagers and one child—walked on the wilderness like this.Lu Yunqiu was very dissatisfied with Xiao Rong at first, but after saying a few words, he found that the child was not bad-natured, and the young master didn't seem to need him too much, so he chatted with Xiao Rong.

"Hey, Xiao Rong, how old are you?" Lu Yunqiu asked.

"I am eleven this year." Xiao Rong replied.The child's mental adjustment is fast, and when he learns that the person Luo Zichuan killed was a villain, he will be fine after a while.

"That's really weird. You said that you can't be beaten even if you are a child. Why did the imperial soldiers arrest you for exile?" Lu Yunqiu said.

"I don't know..." Xiaorong lowered his head.

Lu Yunqiu's heart is like a mirror.He cursed secretly, the fifth prince obviously couldn't catch adults, he caught children to make up for it!It's insane...

He sighed softly, looked up, and the figures of two teenagers came into view.

Luo Zichuan Lin Suiyan walked faster.Along the way, Luo Zichuan didn't say anything, as if he was dumbfounded.

Lin Suiyan peeked at him from the corner of his eye, and finally broke the silence.

"Let me bandage your hands." Lin Sui said.

The sword wound on Luo Zichuan's hand covered the entire back of his white hand, and the blood stains also stained the uninjured area red.

"No, it will be fine in a while." Luo Zichuan said.

"What are you afraid of?" Lin Suiyan tilted his head.

"I, my father said when I was young that people are divided into good and bad, and I can't kill innocent people for my own selfish desires. Later, I went to Yunchuan Valley, where people pay attention to practicing medicine to help the world. Master will try his best to heal those who come to seek medical treatment even if there is only one breath left, even if they are heinous people. He said that the doctor has a benevolent heart, and no matter whether the patient is good or evil, he should not hold selfish desires.' This person is a good person, and I must save him. This person is a bad person, so I might as well leave him alone.” These two views are often the most unacceptable. Evil people are not born with mistakes, and good people have never done a bad thing. In short, although I don't know anything about medical skills, I will keep Master's teachings in my heart. Whenever I see life losing in front of my eyes, but I can't do anything about it, or ask me to give me such a thing, it is a blessing for me. An invisible torture."

"I didn't follow Master's instruction..." he murmured.

"Luo Zichuan, from what I see, I don't think your master, what Luo Yizhi said is completely correct. I can't say it's a woman's benevolence, maybe these words have a certain weight among doctors. But I want to tell you What’s more important is——you are not a doctor, you are not proficient in medical skills, and you can’t go back to the valley like him forever, just doing the righteous deeds of practicing medicine to help the world. What you want to break into is a martial arts world, a river and lake dripping with swords, lights, swords and shadows. If you uphold With the words and deeds of letting everyone go, I think, you may not be able to gain a foothold in the martial arts. Or, to put it bluntly, you may not even be able to protect yourself. If you still treat all the good and evil people in the world If everyone is treated equally, then I can basically be sure that Luo Yizhi's words are not warning you of the benevolence of a doctor, but are harming you."

"Maybe he wants you to be a successful doctor, but at certain moments—for example, a person kills your parents, a few years later, he is seriously injured, and he seeks treatment from you as a doctor, you will Save him? In other words, can you resist going up for the last knife? As far as I can see, no, yes
