Li Xingtian was silent for a while and then shook his head with a wry smile: "Brother Ximen is too generous to me, I'm just an errand boy." Chang Yu chuckled: "According to what you said, I am just an errand boy for the imperial court."
"How could that be possible? Brother Ximen was the one at that time... Hey" Li Xingtian shook his head lightly: "It's fine if you don't believe it. Since I fell into your hands today, I have nothing to say. I just don't know how Brother Ximen plans to deal with me. Is he going to blow this off? Is there blood on your neck?"
Chang Yu sighed and took a step forward: "I am a beautiful lady, but you are a thief. You are a knight-errant in the world, but you want to get into this muddy water."
Li Xingtian laughed loudly: "Thieves? What are thieves? Maybe the court sees us as thieves, but from our point of view, what we do is moral." He snorted coldly: "I also want to be free in the world, but this How can you be at ease in today's world? The Taoist nun and the nun under your command are still outsiders. They are also involved in this muddy water. It's just that they stand on your side, while those below stand on your side. It's just the other side. If I am a thief, they are hawks and dogs. What is the actual difference?"
Chang Yu was speechless for a moment.
"That's all, we are not traveling together after all." Chang Yu sighed: "This is not the place to talk. How about we change places and have a good chat?"
Li Xingtian smiled: "What if I don't want to go?"
"I don't want to kill you, but don't force me!" Chang Yu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the surrounding temperature seemed to freeze instantly, making people shudder.
"Oh, why don't you want to kill me?" Li Xingtian said with a faint smile.
"Although I am in the court, my heart is devoted to the Jianghu. If I were not in charge of official duties, I would probably wander around the Jianghu and play the world. Therefore, I have always had a special affection for the Jianghu Rangers. And you just happened to satisfy all my fantasies about the Jianghu Rangers. So I have never had any murderous intention towards you, but if you have always been ignorant of good and evil, hehe, you should know that I am not someone who eats fast and chants Buddha's name."
"Of course you are not." Li Xingtian's face suddenly turned gloomy: "The executioner who kills without blinking an eye, the bloodthirsty maniac of Dongchang..."
Tsk tsk tsk, Chang Yu interrupted him: "I was Ximen just now, but now he has turned into a bloodthirsty maniac."
"That's because I still had some friendship with you just now, so I called you brother Ximen. Now the friendship between you and me is over, why bother to be pretentious anymore?" Li Xingtian snorted coldly: "And you really think you can keep me and take me away? I?"
Chang Yu chuckled and turned around to look at the beggars shivering in the corner in the yard: "Every time you appear, something big happens around me. This shows that you are neither an ordinary thief nor a loner. , there should be a very powerful force or force behind you, but... I don't believe that these beggars are all yours, and even if they are, you still can't escape today. The people I want to leave behind are the ones behind you. I can’t even take that Bodhisattva away!”
"As I said before, I'm just an errand follower. Where can I get any help?" Li Xingtian chuckled and looked at Chang Yu and said, "Perhaps you are used to being in a high position for a long time, so you have the illusion that you are omnipotent. , he paused for a moment, "Although this great master of the world is not a free man, if he wants to leave, no one can stop him from staying here, not even you, let alone the Clay Bodhisattva who can't protect himself."
"You are very confident. If you are so powerful, you won't be stuck in this ruined temple by me." Chang Yu smiled: "Your martial arts skills are indeed extraordinary, but except for the light body technique and the flying knife technique, you have no ability to fight." But the skills are very common, even in this courtyard, no one can defeat you less than five numbers, and even the governor can easily defeat you."
A sentence of "supervisor" can be regarded as a complete line of demarcation.
Hahaha, Li Xingtian looked up to the sky and laughed: "Your boxing and kicking skills are indeed great, but your killing skills may not be as good as mine, and... you also said that I have two great skills. I may not be good at fighting, but I am more than enough to escape. of……"
Before he finished speaking, Li Xingtian suddenly moved, his hands shaking rapidly, and dozens of cold lights splashed out in an instant. Qing Yi shouted: "Back off!" At the same time, he shot out a wave of air with his palms, and Li Xingtian and his flying knives were immediately hit. A stream of zhenqi overturned and hit the Bodhisattva statue in the hall hard, causing dust to fly all over the room.
Although Chang Yu and others were on guard, Li Xingtian suddenly attacked and used his unique skill to fire dozens of flying knives into the air. The distance was so close that there was no way to avoid them. Fortunately, Qing Yi shot them away with a burst of Qi, but there were still several flying knives. The sword broke through the real energy, Chang Yu drew his sword and was about to strike, but Zheng Zhilong beside him stretched out a wooden stick and knocked it away.
"Is that all you can do?" Chang Yu snorted coldly. He raised his knife and was about to rush into the hall. Suddenly he heard a burst of scolding and the sound of weapons clashing from behind. He was suddenly shocked to realize that this guy didn't know where to leave the hall. Could it be that there was a back door or a window.
Before they had time to think about it, Chang Yu, Zheng Zhilong, and Qing Yi rushed in. Suddenly they heard a pop behind them. They immediately looked back and saw Li Xingtian falling from the sky and falling heavily to the ground at the entrance of the hall. His mouth was bleeding and his face was pale, lying on the ground covering his head. Touching his left rib, blood seeped out from between his fingers.
A strong wind blew by, and Jiang Fa jumped down from the top of the temple and said calmly: "You are just getting started with the art of lightening your body, and you are far from reaching the peak."
"Who are you? How can you be willing to be an eagle and dog with such magical skills?" Li Xingtian endured the severe pain and frowned. Jiang Fa snorted coldly: "If I were an eagle and dog, what would you do?"
Li Xingtian was instantly angry.
Chang Yu took a step forward: "You don't want to kill me out of love for Jianghu, but I want to love you more than anything, so it doesn't necessarily mean you will be killed. Why bother? Let's change places and have a nice chat. Maybe everything will be fine." room".
Hey, Li Xingtian sneered, and then took a sip of blood at Chang Yu: "If I fall into your hands, it would be better to die. Open your dog eyes to see if I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death..."
"You bastard!" Hearing his rude words, Jiang Fa scolded him. At this moment, Li Xingtian suddenly took action, a cold light erupted, and a column of blood spurted out from his neck.
He actually committed suicide!
Died by his own flying knife.
Everyone was shocked, and Chang Yu was even more stunned looking at Li Xingtian's body and didn't come back to his senses for a while!
It has been more than a year since he traveled back in time. Chang Yu has killed many people and seen many corpses, but the impact has never been as great as the scene before him. A wanderer like Li Xingtian actually committed suicide. For the sake of his morality, His faith, his loyalty.
Since ancient times, the enemy and us have gone to war, captured each other, and surrendered to each other. Just like the imperial court and the bandit army have been fighting for more than ten years, there are not a few imperial soldiers and thieves, and there are also many bandit soldiers who surrender to the court, so many that it is shocking. Numb and insensible, it is because of this that those loyal ministers who committed suicide and sacrificed their lives for their country appear particularly noble.
I have heard of court officials who died for their country, but now I am the first to see a traitor who died for their country.
Leaving aside his camp, Li Xingtian was a loyal person as a Jianghu man. As a courtier, he was a loyal minister who committed suicide and died for his country, so his suicide shocked Chang Yu in particular!
The night was already very late. Chang Yu was sitting next to the oil lamp in the inn, holding a tea cup in his hand and keeping silent. Zheng Zhilong next to him had a calm face. He would turn on the lamp from time to time and take a sneak look at Chang Yu. What happened tonight shocked him. He was curious again, but he knew that there were some things he couldn't ask unless the little eunuch was willing to say them.
Li Xingtian's death shocked and surprised Chang Yu in his heart, so he was willing to share his experience as a knight-errant, so he told Zheng Zhilong.
Zheng Zhilong listened very carefully and said nothing during the process. It was not until a long time after listening that he sighed: "So, this person's identity is by no means simple."
Chang Yu nodded: "He can't just be a follower and errand boy. He should be a secret organization in the bandit army...well, similar to the head of an yamen such as the Imperial East Factory and Jinyiwei."
"Does the Governor have evidence or is it just speculation?" Zheng Zhilong asked.
"It feels like" Chang Yu said lightly: "It's a very strong feeling."
Zheng Zhilong frowned: "In that case, we have to be careful. The Governor also said that every time we meet him, there will be trouble..." After saying this, he paused: "But I don't understand something, he If he is really the leader of a secret organization, then... he should have helpers by his side just now."
Chang Yu shook his head: "We don't know about this. Maybe it was a coincidence that he was the only one in the city. After all, there are many people and it is easy to be exposed. Or maybe he wanted to avoid those people in the dark being exposed. Didn't he commit suicide just to keep it secret?" What?"
