Chapter 13: The Danger Returns
The fire crackled restlessly, and the evening breeze stirred the vines at the entrance of the cave in a loud and arrogant manner. Bai Luofeng crossed his legs, his sword scabbard on his shoulder, his face against the hilt of the sword, his head woke him up from time to time, and then added some firewood to the fire, contentedly enjoying the hard-won moment of warmth.
It was almost a day and a middle of the night after he was intercepted and killed, Bai Luofeng escaped by tricks, how could he not want to end the future troubles forever? It's just that he didn't dare to bet that the other party had no power to fight back after the smoke and dust calmed down, and he wasn't sure if Yan Daoping had summoned other helpers.
Even if it can be concluded from this person's behavior that he is a person with a desire for profit, even the only remaining Marquis of Zhenyuan in the court today who has the ability to turn over the clouds dares to disobey the yin and the yang, and it can be seen that it is difficult for him to share the spoils with more people.
But if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if! The sleepless man shrank his body, staring at the bonfire with worried eyes: he went all the way north, not only to set foot on the Gangzhi Temple, but also to attract all the ill-intentioned Xiaoxiao in the rivers and lakes, and try his best to avoid the misery of Wanhua Valley from experiencing devastation again one day.
Bai Luofeng has always felt that he owes Nalan too much to the wind: from the grace he inherited when he was young, he forgot that Yunchuan had no intention of taking away his eyes, and the world would advance and retreat together, and he would reverse the righteousness of Wei Jian to go to a thousand mountains...... He can't let himself become the handle of the imperial court or someone with a heart to deal with Wanhua Valley.
The swordsman's aura was sharper than the cold wind whistling outside the cave, and the calloused palm clenched the sheath and gurgled, and the raging fire was extinguished for no reason at this moment, gradually illuminating the two faces in the dim cave that were still beautiful.
The young man's consciousness fell on the unconscious wounded, and it was inevitable that a trace of regret overflowed: a generation of suave sons of a thousand swords was deprived of their legs, and in the future, Mo said that he would continue to take pictures of the rivers and lakes, I am afraid that it is impossible to take care of himself.
"I will kill many people, so many that I will become the devil of everyone's punishment, so many that I will never be able to recover after death. Bai Luofeng has held the sword for more than ten years, and his hands are trembling under the Ten Thousand Evil Cliffs. After a while, he held his head flat and wiped his red and damp nose with the back of his hand, and suddenly felt that the bottom of his eyes was sour and uncomfortable, so he simply rolled his eyes and raised his head to blink at the uneven stone wall.
There was a long snort from the empty cavern, and the Night's Watch picked up the branches on the ground and absentmindedly peeled off the bark, thin layers of dirt between their fingernails. At last, with a sigh, the branches were thrown into the fire and sparks were splashed, and the gloomy faces seemed to vanish with the dimming of Mars.
The young man shook his head self-deprecatingly, patted the stains on his palms, and laughed and scolded himself for not being competitive enough: Hey, isn't it just a bad name?
Bai Luofeng knew that he didn't want to be sarcastic by the demon as an upright mortal, and he didn't want other innocent people in the world to be compared with the sanctimonious Taoist, and he was unwilling that the demon king would poke his backbone and laugh at him for not keeping his word and running away. So he made a bet with the Peacock King of Xishan with all his will, and he would hastily embark on the road of no return with a sword.
These two decisions are more stupid than the other, so stupid that they don't look like something that a person named Bai Luofeng would do - is there anything more stupid in the world than knowing the result but insisting on dying in vain?
Bai Luofeng didn't dare to lift himself, he always thought that he was just a wanderer in the rivers and lakes, a tourist with only one sword, just like a guest in Quanyang City, his ability was not great, it was only enough to save a life. However, there should always be a moment in a person's life when he is willing to be stupid for one thing without hesitation.
At this point, he remembered those friends who were more lively than him, after all, as the best friend of everyone in the world who wanted to get rid of him, he would be more or less implicated after all. What's more, Yu Lao Dao has sinister intentions, and he may not know when he will admonish the emperor to set a trumped-up crime, and stage a good show similar to seizing the spiritual grass of Wanhua Valley.
At the moment, the only thing he can do is to eliminate as much as possible all those who are close to the Gangzhi concept or who can't stand the temptation to do things for them while he is alive.
"We have no family members for several lifetimes, so don't let the blind man and his sister taste our past sufferings again. The fragile branch was broken and burned, and Bai Luofeng muttered guiltily, "You will forgive me, right?"
"This ...... Where is this?" The faint sound of surprise broke the silence, and the relaxed atmosphere did not last long, Cui Renzhu let out a cry of mourning: "Legs!
"You'd better not move, I've worked hard to get you out, and if you bring people in later, don't think I'll save you again. Bai Luofeng didn't have much affection for the wounded, he interrupted the noisy screams without turning his head, and continued to break the piles of firewood collected by himself.
Cui Renzhu was startled by the empty warning sound, and finally recalled the scene in front of his eyes, his face suddenly turned red, and his hateful gaze was even hotter than the fire against the backdrop of the firelight.
As soon as Confucian changed his image as a humble gentleman, his five fingers clenched into fists and smashed on the ground, gritting his teeth and hating: "What about Yan Daoping and them?"
Bai Luofeng didn't squint and said, "I don't know, Bacheng is still alive." ”
"Still alive?!" Cui Renzhu's eyes were wide enough to encompass the entire pile of flames, and he looked like he was eager to grab Bai Luofeng's collar and forehead that had nothing to do with him, "Why don't you kill them! Isn't your ability enough?"
"You're exalting me too much. Bai Luofeng coldly refused, and concentrated on removing the ashes to make the fire stronger.
"If you don't cut the grass and eradicate the roots, even if it is the end of the earth, they will chase after it!" The Thousand Swords Gongzi stared at the life-saving benefactor, and his words were full of the determination to crush Yan Daoping and the two of them.
"Heh, didn't you say that I was too ruthless before? Didn't you let me let go of those who were no longer able to parry?" Bai Luofeng was amused, put down the wooden pole in his hand and said solemnly: "The knife, if it doesn't fall on your neck, who can understand the pain?"
Cui Renzhu's fingers cracked, he endured the friction of the ground, pushed himself to the edge of the rock wall with both hands, and stood up like a needle along the back of his head, panting: "I... I was wrong, but I was a rotten person, and it is not a pity to die. You're different, you're really not worried about the Marquis of Zhenyuan as they say......"
"If Liu Jizong wants me to die, then it's not just you, Cui Renzhu and those two horsemen, who are here. Bai Luofeng unceremoniously interrupted Cui Renzhu's flowers, and closed his eyes without paying attention to them: "If you can toss, climb out and toss by yourself." If not, stay honest, and after dawn, I will take you to the nearby county to find a doctor for temporary treatment, and then ask someone to send you back to Wuhou Mansion. ”
"No, I'm not leaving!" Cui Renzhu, who fell into the abyss overnight, looked stubborn, his arms crossed and pressed each other to divert the sharp pain that occurred at the moment under his waist.
"What can you do if you stay!" Bai Luofeng suddenly stood up and looked down at Confucius, and was furious, "Could it be that I am waiting for you to slash the enemy? I tell you, wishful thinking! I just want you to experience for yourself that you are the same virtue as the group of guys outside who are clear in words and deeds." I have no kindness to you, and you don't expect me to be gracious! After tomorrow, you and I will part ways and live in ignorance!"
Cui Renzhu looked at Bai Luofeng's irritable and hideous cheeks in a daze, his spine suddenly slumped, and he looked down at his legs that couldn't be summoned and fell into silence.
There was no wind or rain in the cave, but the two of them spread out like a cold river in an instant. The fire, swaying for no reason, swayed a few times and suddenly extinguished. The moonlight crept in through the gap in the rattan and stood on the swordsman's pale face, the hole reflected in the tunnel, and the shadow was like a demon raging.
The scabbard that Bai Luofeng held in his arms trembled violently!
