beg for chivalry

"Senior brother, are you kidding me?" The little Taoist blushed and asked vigorously.

"Just teasing you."

"This, this is not a joke!"

"What kind of joke is that? Brother, you have to teach me well."

Yu Qiuxia smiled gently.It is really strange to say that at first glance, this person looks as cold as ice, but at the second glance, it can be seen that this person is still a little cautious, and often does not know how much truth or falsehood is in his words.

By this time, it was almost time for students to get up in the morning.The red sun poked its head out from the sea of ​​clouds, shining golden light on the floating clouds.From a distance, you can see light smoke rising from the mountainside, misty and soft, just like the tulle of a jade hat swaying in the wind.

At this time, Yu Qiuxia stood up leaning on the knife.The jade white knife in his hand is indeed a famous knife in the world, the blade is as bright as jade, but it has a cold and menacing edge.While holding the handle tightly, he asked Yu Jiachen casually. "By the way, Junior Brother, are you afraid of pain?"

"Not afraid!" Yu Jiachen replied hastily after all that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, for fear of ruining his image in the hearts of his seniors.When he realized that his senior brother was giving him an intriguing look through the tulle, his face suddenly became hot.

"If you want to talk about pain... I'm still a little bit afraid. But if you don't smash your body to pieces, I will never say the word 'pain' even if you grit your teeth!"

"Then I can't give you this jade white knife." Unexpectedly, Yu Qiuxia smiled sharply.

What he said made Yu Jiachen anxious. "Senior brother, don't say this, even if you really need to shatter the bones to practice the Yubai sword technique, I have already realized it..."

Yu Qiuxia interrupted him. "Why should you be ashamed to admit it, Junior Brother? Pain is the closest to 'death'. No matter how you die, you will definitely feel pain before you die. The pain of body and mind is something that everyone fears."

"But I, I... I'm not afraid of pain!" The little Taoist clenched his fists and said.

"The bitterness and desolation in the world, injustice and injustice are also what people fear." Yu Qiuxia smiled softly and calmly.

Yu Jiachen frowned and drew his sword, said.

"However, in this situation, I will be angry first instead of feeling afraid-and then try my best to correct this bias of the world!"

After all, he is not familiar with the dangers of the world, and his words still show his passion.

Yu Qiuxia shook her head and denied him.

"If only one county can allow you to use your ability to punish rape and eliminate evil, but what about a state? What about the government? If this is the case in the world, unrighteous actions have flooded the rivers and lakes, and you are required to fight against the entire world, junior brother Do you still just feel angry?"

These words made the little Taoist speechless.He gritted his teeth and rolled his eyeballs a few times before asking in a dazed manner.

"What's the meaning of the brother's words?"

"I'm just saying... I can't give you this knife. Because if you want to take my vacant position as the head of the sect, the above two frightening things will definitely be with you all day long." Yu Qiuxia smiled. "Practicing the Yubai sword technique requires the pain of bone erosion, and being the number one in the world also has to endure the pain of 'even if you have a sword, you can't be a hero'. It's very uncomfortable."

"Brother, will you feel uncomfortable too?"

In Yu Jiachen's view, senior brother is omnipotent.Not only is his sword skill among the best in the world, but he is also kind and kind, and understands a lot of truths.Apart from not knowing what he looks like, it can be said that there is no second perfect man like him in the world.

So when Yu Qiuxia said that he could hardly bear the pain of Yubai Dao, he didn't believe it.

"In short, it's very difficult. It's because I know that the title of 'Jade White Swordsman' is not easy to bear, so I tell you this."

"The Yubai swordsman only needs one person. I don't want and dare not pass this sword on to the second person. It is because I am afraid that my junior brother will suffer, so I can't bear to hand this sword to you." Yu Qiuxia smiled slightly.

These words and this scene were deeply reflected in the heart of the young Yu Jiachen.

When she said this, Yu Qiuxia's white shirt was fluttering, as if she was going to melt into the wind like clouds all over the sky.Tianyun landscape, up and down white, but he is the one who wins Mei Shengxue with a long knife, the purest touch of white.

Unfortunately, this whiteness will soon disappear.

Yu Jiachen still remembers that after that, everything became like a nightmare: Houtianlou assassins invaded the Tianshan Gate like a raging crow, bloodbathed almost all the disciples of a sect, almost all the elders of Sifang fell, and the corpse of Elder Dongqing was crucified. Hanging above the mountain wall, senior brother Yu Qiuxia also disappeared after a fierce battle with the leader of Houtianlou.

Later, Yu Jiachen tried his best to take over as the head of the sect, but in the end he couldn't help the sect's decline, so he simply decided to travel south to search for his senior brother whose life and death were unknown and whose whereabouts were unknown.

Unexpectedly, the world is complicated and volatile, he is not familiar with human affairs, and he has suffered a lot along the way.Some people suffer from hunger and cold, some become bandits, some cheat him of money, and some betray his sincerity.By the time Yujiachen arrived in the Central Plains, he had suffered several setbacks and suffered from hardships. In desperation, he had no choice but to kill the idea of ​​finding his senior brother, and wanted to return to the Tianshan Gate alone.

——But at this moment, he saw Wang Xiaoyuan.

Yu Jiachen originally wanted to return home, thinking that after finding out the real body of Yubai swordsman who would appear in the annual "Heroes Meeting" in Qianjiazhuang, he would go back home.So he followed the crowd into Qianjiazhuang, waiting for the opening of the Qunying Heroes.

Unexpectedly, among the crowd, he suddenly saw someone stabbing swords in the courtyard.One of them's saber technique is appalling, not like a Lianjiazi, but the other has an exquisite jade white saber technique, which he can wield freely.Yu Jiachen was shocked when he saw it - he recognized senior brother Yu Qiuxia's saber technique, but the young servant's saber technique was exactly the same as his senior brother's!

Yu Qiuxia once said that he would not pass on the Yubai Sword to a second person because he would have to endure inhuman pain to practice this sword technique.

So, where did that young man dressed as a servant learn this sword technique?

Just as Yu Jiachen was immersed in memories, he suddenly felt that the hem of his white Taoist robe was lightly dusted.Looking back, it turned out that it was Wang Xiaoyuan who smiled and patted the dust off his clothes.

"The owner of the door has traveled all the way from the northwest, and even this white robe is covered with dust. It's really unbearable."

The two of them were sitting cross-legged on the roof against the night wind at this time, the bright lights in the courtyard were like stars shining, reflecting the brilliance in the young man's eyes, and the blackness in his eyes was like embers falling.The young Taoist stared at him for a while, then hurriedly moved his eyes away, and lowered his head.

"That's all right. I'm more afraid of one thing than dirty clothes."

"What's the matter?"

"Brother Wang, please see that there are many starving people lying under our feet. These people are all people who cannot fill their stomachs because of the lack of harvest in famine years. Their wives and children are probably so hungry that they sleep together in this dust."

Wang Xiaoyuan followed Yu Jiachen's gaze and looked down.They climbed up to the eaves, and naturally saw the surrounding scenery clearly. They saw some yellow and emaciated people sticking to the walls under the trees like moss, their throats vibrating and rolling up and down from time to time, and their shriveled belly trembled slightly. It was obvious that he was exhausted from hunger.

Looking at those people, Yu Jiachen frowned, "The dust on the clothes is just a temporary stain, just pat it off; but if the dust seeps into the bones and blood, it can't be brushed off. As Brother Wang said See, the dust is not that these hungry people want to be contaminated by themselves, but someone forced them to roll and immerse in the pool, so that they can never get rid of it—Brother Wang, this is what I am afraid of.”

Although he didn't clarify the meaning of the words, Wang Xiaoyuan understood that he was responsible for Qian Jiazhuang's money-gathering behavior.The owner's strategy is to use the name of "Heroes' Association" to pay money to see the origin of the heroes of the rivers and lakes to search for money.And the hungry people, who can't bear to collect taxes, can't resist rampant officials, and want to seek the protection of heroes, will naturally flock here.

But how could Yin Yuanbao and Tong Kongfang, who regard wealth as their fate, understand how many people are looking forward to seeing Shang Yubai Swordsman and begging him to put an end to that devil who takes people's heads and kills without blinking an eye!Tonight's "Heroes Meeting" is a life-saving magic weapon for them, and it is by no means an ordinary gathering.

"Does the sect master think that this 'Heroes' Association' is a money-making scheme for Qianjiazhuang?" Wang Xiaoyuan seemed dull, but he was very clever, and he understood the meaning of his words as soon as he rolled his eyes.

"This... I can't make a conclusion until I see it with my own eyes." Yu Jiachen blinked and said hastily, "But if the senior brother is by his side, he will definitely open his mouth to blame the poor one first: Why don't you help these suffering people? Senior brother is An extremely upright person, I am ashamed of him."

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoyuan folded his hands in front of his chest, and said in a slightly reproachful tone. "I don't think your senior brother would say that."

"Then... how will I teach my humble servant?"

"Your senior brother will probably say: How can we save it? You can distribute the money to feed these disaster victims now, but if you save it for a while, can you save it for a lifetime? After leaving, the silver ingot and the copper hole square will probably intensify their efforts to harm the common people, and the suffering will not be resolved at all."

Wang Xiaoyuan said with a serious expression, when he said these words, his eyebrows were depressed, and he showed a little stability.Hearing what Wang Xiaoyuan said, Yu Jiachen couldn't help feeling sad again.

"In that case, what should we do?"

"Naturally, the root cause must be dealt with. Although this may cause resentment from the villagers, it has to be done."

A hint of sadness flashed across the young servant's face.For some reason, seeing this slightly sad expression, the heart of the young Taoist actually jumped wildly.It's not so much palpitations as it is a feeling of astonishment like enlightenment.

So Yu Jiachen probed. "Brother Wang, I have something I want to say to you. It sounds absurd, but it is undoubtedly my sincere words—"

"What's wrong?" Wang Xiaoyuan raised his head curiously.

When he was sad, the tip of his brows slightly curved, just like the crescent moon flickering in the water mirror, a pair of bright eyes were calm in the dark night, which made Yu Jiachen suddenly speechless.The strange thing about this young man is that he was born like a jade in the rough, and he has a natural feeling that does not need to be polished.

His brain seemed to be hit hard by someone, Yu Jiachen came back to his senses in a daze, and after staring at Xiao Yuan for a long time, he faltered and said.

"The knife technique based on yangrou, and the appearance when he was preaching... can't be wrong, I think it can't be wrong."

Wang Xiaoyuan stared at him blankly, only listening to Yu Jiachen's words.

"...you and senior brother... are very similar."
