Song Bufan's expression was ferocious, but judging from the current situation, he and Gu Qingfeng were at best a draw, and what he wanted to accomplish was obviously somewhat impossible at this moment.
Hatred grew in my heart bit by bit.
Song Bufan didn't want to see this scene.
He had been preparing for this day for so long, but he couldn't accept it when he fell to this point.
Looking at Song Bufan's face, Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly.
He also knew that if Song Bufan could be defeated so easily, there would be no need for him to be here.
He told Gu Xiaotian and Leng Qingqiu from his heart: "If the fight breaks out again soon, don't worry about anything, just run."
Gu Xiaotian paused for a moment and looked at Song Bufan blankly.
In fact, at this point, if the two of them fight, there is no need to say clearly what the consequences will be.
Song Bufan stood up slowly, his eyes could spit out anger, he staggered, picked up Mo Ying's swords, and held them in his hands again.
Gu Qingfeng clicked his tongue twice and cursed secretly in his heart. He also stood up and the nine flying swords rose up one after another and hovered beside him.
The breath of the two people spread out again.
It's just not as strong as before.
The previous battle had suffered heavy losses for both of them, but obviously, a draw was an unacceptable result.
At least, that's the case for Song Bufan.
The two faced each other on the spot, and neither one made the first move.
However, a sword light suddenly lit up on the horizon.
Everyone looked towards the sword light, and saw that the sword light was getting closer and closer, speeding towards the ruined view.
Then, the sword light jumped down and flew towards Song Bufan.
Song Bufan swung his sword to split the sword light and looked at the person who drew the sword.
It was Gu Xiaotian.
Gu Qingfeng's pupils suddenly widened, and he was also a little surprised.
Song Bufan became crazy and laughed: "Gu Xiaotian, I can send you to a high place, or I can make you fall to pieces."
"Why do you want to send everyone into martial arts?"
Gu Xiaotian asked: "Why did you choose me?"
Song Bufan looked solemn.
When this topic was mentioned, Song Bufan's eyes suddenly darkened and his breath gradually dissipated.
There was silence for a long time, and the scene seemed to be still.
After a long time, Song Bufan finally said, "Do you really want to know?"
Gu Xiaotian nodded.
Gu Qingfeng suddenly reminded: "Junior brother, at this time, you can't be soft-hearted."
Everyone can see that Gu Xiaotian is a little soft-hearted.
If according to what Gu Qingfeng said before, if the two of them fled quickly once a fight broke out, Gu Qingfeng himself would be at least 70% sure that he could kill Song Bufan.
Even though he would suffer some serious injuries, it was indeed a good deal to kill a person who was in a state of defeat, especially one like Song Bufan, who was already on the verge of madness.
However, Gu Qingfeng himself did not expect it.
This question mentioned by Gu Xiaotian actually made Song Bufan's murderous intention dissipate instantly, and his heart gradually calmed down and stopped being crazy.
Of course, Gu Qingfeng was really happy to see this scene.
Because he had made up his mind that no matter what happened to Song Bufan, only one person between him and Song Bufan would leave alive today.
However, Gu Xiaotian just looked back at Gu Qingfeng and said softly: "Brother, I think some things are not as simple as life and death."
Gu Qingfeng sighed.
The war was approaching, and he really didn't want to face these things.
But the junior brother insisted on this, and Gu Qingfeng could only sigh.
"Junior brother, I hope you don't regret it."
Gu Qingfeng just said briefly and took back the nine flying swords.
Song Bufan also put Mo Ying's swords into their scabbards, sat cross-legged, and looked up
Lin Wanting got a lot of things from the Mo family. No matter which person from the Mo family sent these things, they were all put into the same box. Only the things Lin Wanting brought from the Lin family were picked out, and then together with some of Lin Wanting's personal items, For example, the bedding and underwear were sent to the yard where Lin Wanting lived.
The rest, such as some skin care products, balms and toiletries that Lin Wanting had used and were relatively valuable, Mo Zhenzhen distributed to the servants. As for the picked things, Mo Zhenzhen recycled them at a discount and returned them to the Mo family's warehouse. , which was recycled at 20% of the price. Mo Zhenzhen didn’t want the recovered silver. She donated it directly to the charity hall in the name of the Mo family, or exchanged it for food and made porridge for seven days.
Mo Zhenzhen's behavior was actually very unethical. After all, no matter how Lin Wanting got those things, they were all hers. Her behavior of robbing other people's things was very criticized.
But when the four young masters of the Mo family came to question Mo Zhenzhen after hearing the news, Mo Zhenzhen sat calmly and told them in a very calm and calm manner that she was trying to accumulate good fortune for Lin Wanting.
If they ask again, Mo Zhenzhen will tell them stories about how their ancestors did something wrong and harmed future generations.
All four of them had seen the step-wife's body before, so such a reflection made them panic. When Mo Zhenzhen said: I did all this for her own good, these four people could no longer sit still and threw their hands away. Sleeve away.
Because the step-wife's matter was a secret of the Hou Mansion, the four princes of the Hou Mansion did not dare to create any more details. In the end, no matter how Lin Wanting complained about her grievances, the four of them did not mention the matter again, but tried their best to If possible, he compensated Lin Wanting out of his own pocket.
These four people compensated quickly, but they forgot that they also had small families.
What Mo Zhenzhen did was not honest, but there was nothing wrong with how she handled it.
Mo Zhenzhen had all the personal belongings of her daughter's family packed up and sent to Lin Wanting. She did not let the things given by the Lin family move. She just packed up the things given by the Mo family (mainly things given by the step-wife and madam) and moved them from there. Gongzhong took the account and then used it to do good deeds.
The key is that the bulk of the value of the things actually belongs to the family, which means that the Hou Mansion as a whole did not suffer a loss, and even made a profit.
Moreover, Mo Zhenzhen used the silver to do good deeds, which indeed gave the Hou Mansion a good reputation.
Mo Zhenzhen's behavior dissatisfied the four young masters of the Hou family, but the four young ladies were satisfied.
Therefore, the young lady cannot empathize with the young masters, which leads to the young masters' indignant subsidizing behavior causing a disorder in the backyard.
It's just that these young men are marrying young ladies from everyone. They rarely make a fuss regardless of dignity when something happens, but revenge is certain.
They have many ways to make someone's life difficult without showing it on the surface, so even if Mo Zhenzhen doesn't make things difficult for Lin Wanting, her life will still be difficult.
Even if Mo Zhenzhen hadn't helped her secretly several times, this girl wouldn't be able to stay in the Hou Mansion anymore and would be driven back to the Lin family.
Of course, Lin Wanting had said she wanted to go back to the Lin family more than once, but the Hou Mansion was under martial law, and no matter whether Lin Wanting really wanted to go back to the Lin family or was pretending to cry, she couldn't leave.
The four young masters of the Mo family had real feelings for Lin Wanting (a brother-sister relationship), and they really felt sorry for her when she was wronged. Their actions of standing up for Lin Wanting once again stimulated the young ladies.
A vicious cycle started here, and Mo Zhenzhen was not idle either. She took people out to a temple outside the city and invited a Bodhisattva back in the name of praying for blessings.
The Bodhisattva was sent to the lady's house as soon as he was invited back. In addition to the Bodhisattva, there were also a number of items for worship, such as incense and candles.
After seeing the Bodhisattva, Madam was so angry that she did not dare to speak nonsense in front of the Bodhisattva. She could only stand at the door of the courtyard and accuse Mo Zhenzhen of being unfilial.
But Mo Zhenzhen got a rough lady to come in and told Madam that if she could sincerely worship the Buddha and pray for the Marquis's house every day, then the mother-in-law would stay and take care of her food and daily life.
If Madam doesn't want to, she can stay alone in this courtyard.
Madam was fed up with having no one to serve her, so even if she didn't want to, she finally gritted her teeth.
In the air, he suddenly asked: "If you knew, would you be willing to follow my wish?"
Gu Xiaotian said nothing and looked calm.
Song Bufan closed his eyes slightly and fell into memories.
When Song Bufan was a child, his life was quite decent. Although he was not from a wealthy family, he had no worries about food and clothing. Although his father died young, fortunately, his mother had some skills and opened a shop. Although it was a bit hard, it was still a daily grind. Enrichment.
Song Bufan originally thought that he would probably live in such a small town for the rest of his life, get married, have children, and make a living, and his whole life would be over.
He does not have lofty ideals and ambitions like some young people in the city.
I want to be an official in the court, and I want to travel all over the world with one person and one horse.
He is more content with the status quo. For him, the current life is what he wants, and he doesn't want to change anything.
Until one day, when Song Bufan was playing on the street, he met an old man wearing Taoist robes, sitting in front of a stall crowded with people.
Out of curiosity, Song Bufan naturally wanted to join in the fun. He saw a bunch of strange things on the stall of the Taoist, and those people crowding in front of the stall were naturally bidding, hoping to get some amulets. Something like that.
The city is close to Zhenwu Temple, so the people in the city are naturally a little in awe of people who look like Taoists.
Song Bufan just looked at it for a while and felt a little bored.
Whatever is peaceful or not, if you cause less trouble, you will naturally be peaceful.
He snorted disdainfully and left quickly.
When it was dusk, he went back to the street and found that the Taoist priest was still sitting there, but this time there was no one around, and the items on the stall had been sold out long ago.
Song Bufan clicked his tongue twice, suspecting that the Taoist priest might be a charlatan or something like that, but since others believed him, there was no need for him to expose anything, he could just live his life well.
When he passed by the Taoist priest, the Taoist priest suddenly said, "My little friend, stay here. Are you interested in Taoism?"
Song Bufan looked at the Taoist priest suspiciously and said disdainfully, "Why, do you want to defraud more money before leaving?"
The Taoist priest smiled slightly, slowly raised his hand, and the breath of the door slowly floated out.
According to common sense, people who have not entered martial arts cannot see such aura.
At that time, Song Bufan had not yet entered the martial arts, but he saw the aura clearly.
Song Bufan opened his mouth wide and was very surprised.
Although he didn't want to believe it in his heart, he could still feel that the Taoist priest in front of him seemed to have a real background and was not a charlatan.
The Taoist priest still asked the same question as before, "Are you interested in Taoism?"
In this city, if someone can be favored by the Taoist priest, then the family will be really prosperous, and his status will also rise. Everyone wants to seek Taoism, but there are very few people who really seek it.
Song Bufan also knew how difficult it was for his mother. He also wanted her to live a better life, and wanted to agree, but suddenly a thought flashed through his heart, and he shook his head and said, "No, I'm not interested."
After saying that, he took out all the money he had and gave it to the Taoist priest as a thank you for seeing the Taoist magic.
The Taoist priest was a little surprised.
This was the first time he had seen someone refuse such an invitation.
The young man had already walked away. The Taoist priest looked at his retreating figure and suddenly smiled with relief.
The days that followed continued like this. Song Bufan never saw the Taoist priest again, and gradually forgot about it, just treating it as an episode in his life.
Occasionally, he would hear some news, such as a genius swordsman emerging from Taibai, or a famous young man with a gun who swept across the world.
Of course, these news have nothing to do with him.
Otherwise, fortune will play a trick on people, and accidents will often happen inadvertently.
At that time, Bahuang was in great turmoil. Not long after the old emperor took the throne, all kinds of demons and ghosts appeared one after another, turning Bahuang into a mess. Bad news came from everywhere.
On this day, a group of evil people broke into the city.
The officers and soldiers were defeated and chose to save their lives, but this also caused hardship to the people in the city.
Song Bufan hid in a remote corner, feeling very anxious.
He didn't know what happened to his mother.
After a long time, he quietly poked his head to observe, walked out of the corner, and went straight to his mother's shop.
When he rushed to the shop, Song Bufan could never forget that scene in his life.
Bodies were lying all over the ground, and the wooden floor had already been stained red with blood, as if stepping into a red hell.
Song Bufan suppressed his nausea and looked for his mother. When he saw his mother lying on the ground, his head buzzed and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
He cannot accept this reality.
But the group of villains suddenly came back to the shop, as if they had forgotten something. When they saw Song Bufan at this time, their faces showed a fierce look.
For them, killing one is also killing, and killing a hundred is also killing.
One of them had already drawn a knife and walked towards Song Bufan. He didn't think this little fool had any chance to resist.
However, as soon as the man raised his knife, he suddenly stopped in place.
Song Bufan looked at the man in surprise. There was a blood mark on his neck.
The man shook and collapsed on the ground, causing several others to cheer up.
But before they could do anything, they collapsed to the ground just like the one holding the knife before.
Outside the door, footsteps gradually came. ..
A Taoist priest walked in slowly.
It was the Taoist priest who had met Song Bufan on the street before.
The Taoist priest looked at Song Bufan and said nothing, but just asked the question again.
This time, Song Bufan nodded in agreement.
In this war-torn world, only if you have the skills to protect everyone.
What Song Bufan didn't expect was that this Taoist priest turned out to be the current master of the Zhenwu Temple.
After returning to the Zhenwu Temple with the temple master, Song Bufan practiced like crazy, and his state of mind was improving by leaps and bounds.
After a long time, another news came out in the world.
It is said that a young Taoist priest came out of Taoism, and he might become a real Taoist priest in the future.
Song Bufan's talent is already excellent. In just a few years, he has become the most outstanding talent among the younger generation of Zhenwu Temple. The master of the temple is extremely pleased that he has only accepted one disciple like Song Bufan in his life. , naturally treats him as the successor of the mantle.
Day after day, year after year, Song Bufan had already become a martial artist. After discussing with his master, he went down the mountain to travel around the world.
Along the way, Song Bufan encountered many things and made many friends, but his heart was still extremely cold.
His purpose of going down the mountain was not made clear to his master, but he wanted to protect everyone around him.
Everywhere he went, he would always see some evil people making trouble. Song Bufan would take action, stand in front of these weak people, protect them, and then leave with peace of mind after slaughtering all the evil people around him.
But facts have proven that there are too many weak people in the world and we can never protect them enough.
When Song Bufan returned to the original place again, he saw many evil people and the corpses of the weak.
This made Song Bufan very desperate.
He killed until there were no more living things around.
From that time on, Song Bufan gradually understood something.
There are too many weak people in the world for him to protect them all.
Instead of protecting these weak people, it is better to make all these weak people strong and become invincible strong people, then you will no longer need to protect them.
In the past, he was a puppet who stood in front of the weak to protect them.
Now he is the puppet master of the weak who stands behind the weak.
