The raven was startled when he heard this.
After a while, he realized that Luo Piaoling's words were not directed at him.
But Cifeng.
Raven turned his head and saw that Cifeng had become the sole focus of the audience.
Although the middle-aged man had a long beard and slight wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, he was still in his forties and still in the prime of life.
However, when he struggled to get up from the chair, he looked like an old man.
Cifeng's eyes were helpless, his face was bitter, his lips and teeth were trembling slightly, and he didn't know where to start.
Why do this?
Not only Luo Piaoling wanted to ask this question, but Weiwei and Ruan Gu also wanted to ask it.
Weiwei burst into tears.
Ruan Gu's face turned pale and he bit his lower lip so hard that he almost saw blood!
"No! Uncle Ci, how can you be a traitor? You have never been more than ten steps away from us along the way. How could you have a chance to contact the Red Sect?!"
Ruan Gu could not accept and did not believe Cifeng's betrayal.
He was roaring, but the cry-like and trembling voice was difficult to hear clearly if one didn't listen carefully.
Kind uncle.
Yes, Cifeng not only has his age and seniority, but also his relationship with Ruan Gu, Weiwei, and Luo Piaoling is extraordinary.
Shi Xin likes to make friends with people in the world, so he gets acquainted with Long Yao.
But before that, Cifeng was already a good player in Shi Xin's account.
As for Long Yao's recruitment of disciples, that's another matter.
Therefore, in terms of time, Cifeng is a senior member of the Shi Mansion.
Seniority means winning Shi Xin's trust.
Otherwise, Shi Xin would not have brought him back to Shi Mansion after he removed his armor and returned to his fields.
What is the relationship between Cifeng and Long Yao?
Long Yao is an all-rounder in martial arts and is proficient in all eighteen martial arts.
There were five disciples sitting down, but none of them could fully learn his martial arts.
Cifeng is good at everything with swords, guns and sticks.
There is no one in the army who can compete with him in martial arts.
Birds of a feather flock together.
Both of them come from martial arts circles, and both enjoy studying various martial arts.
Although the two are worlds apart in terms of fame, this does not prevent them from talking about anything because of their similar interests. They have become martial arts confidants and often compete with each other.
As a disciple of Long Yao, he had no shortage of opportunities to ask Cifeng for advice.
Cifeng never kept anything private, answered everything he knew, and taught everything he had to offer.
It is self-evident that they are close to Cifeng, and it is natural for them to call him "Uncle Cifeng".
If you think about it carefully, calling him "Uncle Master" is not an exaggeration.
This time, Ruan Gu and Weiwei came all the way west with him. Because they were traveling around the mountains and rivers and rarely stayed in the country, they were inseparable.
And Ruan Gu and Weiwei are not young people in the world, and they have never seen half of the Red Sect on this journey. Who does Cifeng want to contact?
After arriving at the Kunlun Sect, they had already met up with Luo Piaoling. It would be harder than climbing to heaven to conspire with the Red Sect under Luo Piaoling's nose.
In terms of love, Cifeng had a deep friendship with at least two generations of them.
Whether Luo Piaoling was the late Long Yao's chief disciple or a survivor of Shi Mansion, Cifeng should not betray him.
Yu Li was Cifeng's motive and purpose for betraying Luo Piaoling.
Motivation is the cause and purpose is the effect.
Cifeng would never betray Luo Piaoling for no reason. Not surprisingly, the Red Sect ordered him to do so, but what was his motive?
Why did he surrender to the Red Sect?
When did he come into contact with the Red Sect?
From Tingyu Pavilion in Jiangning County to the Kunlun Sect in Kunlun Mountain, the only thing that will have variables is the westward journey. Judging from the attitudes of Ruan Gu and Weiwei, they both seem to believe that this opportunity does not exist.
Purpose.
If Cifeng really wants to betray Luo Piaoling and Shifu, what benefits will he get?
What benefit does Cifeng want to gain?
This is exactly what Luo Piaoling didn't expect and couldn't figure out.
Cifeng is not young anymore, and he will not be impulsive like a young man.
Cifeng has no desire for fame and fortune. Otherwise, with his ability, he could find another place to express his ambition at any time, so why would he have to go through thick and thin with Tingyuge?
Xue Qinghuan took a sip of tea, smacked her lips, and stopped talking.
He originally wanted to remind Ruan Gu that as long as Cifeng had betrayal intentions, it would not be difficult to convey the message secretly without alerting the two of them.
But then I thought about it, if I didn't say hello in advance, it would be difficult to plot against Luo Piaoling based on simple text exchanges.
Xue Qinghuan quickly realized a key question: what is Cifeng's identity?
This identity and its motivations should be particularly relevant.
It seems that the answer will be revealed before long.
"Xiao Ruan, Uncle Ci is incompetent and failed to protect you." Cifeng could only tilt his head towards Ruan Gu and smile bitterly.
Only when facing Ruan Gu or Weiwei, the apology in his heart would not be so deep.
Everyone had heard the meaning of Cifeng's words, but Ruan Gu still persisted. He blushed and shouted: "No, Uncle Ci, aren't my junior sister and I standing here intact? Along the way, Uncle Ci not only took good care of us, but also taught us many key points in martial arts practice. He also taught us many great principles, teaching us to treat others with sincerity and never forget the kindness of a drop of water."
Luo Piaoling was silent, her eyes seemed to be reddened by the alcohol, staring at Cifeng, wishing to see clearly through his skin.
The past was vivid in his mind, and all he could see was Cifeng's loving and caring look.
They say there must be a shadow under the sun, but he couldn't see where the shadow was hiding.
Seeing this, Cifeng sighed softly and said, "Xiao Ruan, Xiao Wei, along the way, did you two say that you sleep very soundly at night and wake up very energetic every day?"
"Yes... yes, uncle Ci said that the current environment is too depressing for us, so let us relax among the mountains and rivers, so that we can..."
When Weiwei heard the words, she held back her tears and responded, but before she could finish her words, she suddenly woke up and burst into tears again.
"Could it be, could it be..." Ruan Gu's eyes widened, obviously in disbelief.
Cifeng said: "I used a small amount of somnolence powder on you. You won't completely fall asleep to death, but you will fall asleep early every day and will not be woken up easily. I will take this opportunity to leave."
"Why?" Ruan Gu's eyes had become sour, but he still forced them open. He was afraid that as soon as he closed and opened his eyes, Uncle Ci would no longer be Uncle Ci.
"I'm from Japan." This time Cifeng mustered up the courage to face Luo Piaoling.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
If Cifeng wasn't in a bad situation now, everyone would have picked up the guy and punched Cifeng hard.
Young people do not make up the majority of those here. In other words, almost everyone has experienced the Zhongzhou catastrophe twenty years ago.
And one of the leaders of that catastrophe was the gang of projectiles in the sea east of Zhongzhou.
Everyone hates the Japanese people for their bloodthirsty and cruel behavior of killing compatriots and occupying their homes.
Even though nearly seventeen years have passed since the defeat of Japan, and Japan once again bowed to Zhongzhou, many people still gnashed their teeth and hated them when they mentioned the Japanese people.
Cifeng's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.
Naturally, everyone included Luo Piaoling.
And these words were like an arrow, piercing into Luo Piaoling's heart.
He thought that after lying dormant for more than two years, he had accumulated enough knowledge to be able to control everything.
Little did he know that he still thought highly of himself, and even forgot that the most unpredictable thing is the human heart.
Cifeng is from Japan, so it is understandable that he sneaked into Shifu to be used by Japan one day.
People's hearts are separated from each other. If Cifeng hadn't said it himself, who would have known that there was such a secret?
"Oh, the Japanese? The Red Sect? What is the relationship between the two?" Xue Qinghuan raised the question in many people's minds.
Yu Le explained: "The Red Clothes Sect originally relied on rivers, lakes and seas to get its start. A few decades ago, they were the maritime overlords among the people, and the court would take a detour when they encountered them. Japan is surrounded by the sea, and as long as the Japanese want to use the sea as their If you want to be a student, or if you want to take a look outside, you will naturally have to deal with the Red Sect."
Xue Qinghuan said: "So, will there be Japanese people in charge of the Red Sect?"
Yu Le said: "Master Xue Pavilion is just joking. As early as hundreds of thousands of years ago, how could there be any Japanese people? In the final analysis, they are just a relatively unpopular and unpopular side clan in the vast Zhongzhou." Just support it.”
Xue Qinghuan said: "Master Yu taught you a lesson, but Xue is short-sighted."
Yu Le said: "However, I am curious, how did Brother Cifeng sneak into Shi Mansion as a Japanese? General Shi didn't find out?"
Cifeng said: "It's a long story."
Yu Le said: "Then let's be concise and to the point, and make a long story short."
Although Cifeng didn't want to see Yu Le, he still decided to tell the truth.
This would at least make Luo Piaoling feel better.
“Before I was ten years old, I lived with my mother in my hometown.
I have never met my father. I have only heard from my mother that he is one of the rarest true warriors.
My hometown is beautiful.
Thousands of miles of red flowers, thousands of miles of ice, I have only seen those scenes in my hometown.
But my hometown is not a good place to live.
The land of Honghua is too damp and unsuitable for farming.
There are only four seasons in the year: autumn and winter.
The severe cold in winter gets worse every year, so that more people freeze to death every year.
Also, there is the tsunami.
Perhaps due to the terrain, every two or three years, there will always be a big tremor in the ground beneath our feet.
What followed was an overwhelming tsunami.
The red flowers are not afraid of tsunamis. What's more, the tsunami helps them survive and eliminate the fittest, making them longer and more beautiful.
But people are different. When a tsunami comes, we have nowhere to hide and almost have to face death.
We had to move every year or two, but death was inevitable.
After constant migration, we moved into a village.
That village was more prosperous than our original small village.
There are more smiles on their faces.
From their mouths, we learned that there was a rich land far away on the other side of the sea.
We can get countless gold and silver wealth there, and then build a big ship to bring the good things back.
You can also bring your family members to live on the other side.
My mother and I, as well as many people from the same village, chose to embark on that road.
Unexpectedly, we seemed to have been cursed by fate. On a day that should have been clear and clear, a week after we set sail, dark clouds covered the sun and heavy rain suddenly fell.
And what we least want to see is a tsunami..."
