After thirty moves, Qian Zhishui became depressed because all the moves Hubo used were from his Songshan School. Fortunately, Amber used a dagger and could not completely imitate the long knife move, so Qian Zhishui was not defeated within fifty moves. Just when Qian Zhishui was still puzzled about "why the woman in yellow used the moves of Songshan School", he saw Amber curled his lips - it was an extremely impatient expression, as if a cat was tired of playing with a mouse. , ready to swallow it in one bite.
Amber pinched her sword finger, and Qian Zhishui was horrified: Is this woman planning to use a dagger to strike?
He guessed correctly. Amber had studied martial arts with Chen Yan since he was a child, and the thing he had most contact with was swords. But she doesn't like practicing sword very much because she thinks the sword is too heavy and uncomfortable, so she only uses fists and kicks most of the time. Originally, Amber didn't plan to attack with a sword, but Qian Zhishui was the strongest opponent she had encountered since leaving the valley, and she could no longer defeat him with a dagger.
Aunt Zhou said, if your kung fu fails, use a dagger. When you encounter someone who is good at kung fu, use all you have learned throughout your life.
Now is the time to use up what you have learned throughout your life.
Three swords were thrust out, Qian Zhishui blocked two of them, but he did not block the third one. It's not that he couldn't block it, but the dagger was too short and couldn't hit him at that distance.
But he was wrong. Just when he had the idea of "there is no need to dodge this sword", he saw a foot-long air blade coming out of the tip of the dagger.
What kind of monster is this? How many martial arts prodigies have spent a lifetime practicing to develop sword energy that is invisible to the naked eye. How did this girl, who looked to be no more than 20 years old, create an air blade that was over a foot long?
He wanted to defend himself, but it was too late, the air blade had already penetrated into his ribs.
Obviously, it was not just Qian Zhishui who was surprised, Amber was also surprised. Because in her opinion, the length of this air blade was only four inches, so why did it suddenly become a foot long? Immediately afterwards, Amber began to be afraid - she was afraid that she would kill someone.
Qian Zhishui staggered back three or four steps, covering the wound with one hand, and the expression on his face became distorted.
Qian Zhishui shouted: "Stop!"
The fighting parties stopped. Zhu Mingyu looked back and saw the side face of Hu Hu. This innocent little girl who was fearless looked a little pale.
Li Fenglan also saw Amber's expression, and she felt a thump in her heart. It didn't matter if she couldn't beat him. If Amber accidentally killed someone...she didn't dare to think too much, and flashed in front of Amber, blocking Amber's sight. Zhu Mingyu had already walked up to Qian Zhishui and saw that Qian Zhishui was just whimpering in pain and nothing serious. The sword just now did not hurt his vitals.
Zhu Mingyu turned her face and whispered to Li Fenglan, "He's fine."
Li Fenglan breathed a sigh of relief, regained his composure, and said to Qian Zhishui: "Master Qian, do you still want to fight?"
Qian Zhishui shook his head, tried his best to stand up, then fell down on the chair, panting and said to Li Fenglan: "Girl, your skills are not as good as others, so I am willing to be inferior."
Li Fenglan sneered: "Let your people withdraw, and we can talk about business."
Qian Zhishui's injuries were not serious. He thought he had been stabbed to the core, but it turned out that his ribs were only broken and his internal organs were not injured. But even so, he also knew that there was no need to fight this fight, it was impossible to win. Even if he fights, he will die.
Qian Zhishui waved away the crowd, and the group did not dare to go far, but retreated to the steps of the gate.
Li Fenglan looked at Qian Zhishui condescendingly and said, "Go on, I'm listening."
Qian Zhishui was a little helpless. He was a highly respected person, but now he was over sixty years old and was defeated by a little girl. Shame on you.
Qian Zhishui spoke slowly: "Back then, the Songshan Sect was not popular, and there were only two masters in the sect, me and Senior Brother Ji. In order to have a certain status in the world, we decided to join the major sects in the encirclement and suppression. What can I say? That’s all.”
Li Fenglan stared down at Qian Zhishui and said coldly: "Do I believe it? After I came out of the valley, there were three waves of assassins. The first wave was the assassins of Ye Yu Xiaozhu, and the second wave was a group of rabble. You are the only one, entangled They killed dozens of people, with the greatest momentum and the most ruthless attacks. No other sect reacted as strongly as you. Leader Qian, I advise you to tell everything you know and don’t force me to take action again."
Qian Zhishui's expression was a little painful, as if he had made some determination: "Hey... well... those who participated in the encirclement and suppression back then were all sects whose secrets were mastered by the three families, and we are the same."
Having said this, Qian Zhishui raised his head and looked at Li Fenglan. He smiled viciously: "When I was young, I once walked with my master at the foot of the mountain and stayed in a farmhouse. The male owner of the farmhouse got up at midnight, and my master was suspicious. , so the two of us killed their whole family. The Li family found out about this... We have always been submissive in those years... So, do you understand? "
Li Fenglan nodded: "All the major factions involved have similar secrets in the hands of the three families, right?"
Qian Zhishui was noncommittal.
The Li family's cellar was not known to anyone in the world, but the secrets of the Songshan sect happened to be known to the Li family. In addition, Li Fenglan's external identity was Li Fengyao's daughter, so Qian Zhishui was very afraid. He didn't want Jianghu to know his secret. In terms of martial arts, he is a master of Tianzi. In terms of strength, the Songshan sect has the ability to suppress other famous sects. Now all he wants is fame. He held a martial arts conference and assassinated Li Fenglan, all for the sake of fame.
Well now, a seemingly powerful Songshan sect was suppressed by four people, and in order to save his life, he himself was exposed. The Songshan Sect has been disgraced since then, and may never recover.
Li Fenglan asked again: "What else?"
Qian Zhishui gritted his teeth, thought for a long time, and asked, "What else does the girl want to know?"
"There is a leading wild goose flying from the north to the south. With so many sects, they can't all suddenly attack together without discussing it, right?"
"...I only know one person who connects everyone."
"who?"
"Xu Zhenbiao."
"Xu Zhenbiao?"
"A rogue scholar who was somewhat famous twenty years ago. He was a righteous man and had a wide circle of friends."
"Where are they now?"
Qian Zhishui suddenly smiled and replied: "He is dead. He contracted a stubborn disease six years ago and died of illness."
died?
"Girl," Qian Zhishui said, "I've already said what needs to be said. The rest, even if I know, I won't say."
"You don't need to tell me," Li Fenglan said, "I will check it myself later... Of course, this matter is not over yet."
"What? The girl wants to kill me?"
Li Fenglan shook his head: "There is no point in killing you. I will make two demands for you now. First, from now on, the Songshan sect cannot bother me again, otherwise, the whole world will know about your bad deeds. Bai family's residence newspaper All major sects will buy it, do you understand this?"
Qian Zhishui nodded.
Li Fenglan continued: "Two, money."
"what money?"
"Girl, I worked so hard to call in. Do you think I'm here to make you obedient? Stop talking nonsense, I want half of the assets in your Songshan Sect's warehouse!"
…
The Songshan Sect looks powerful, but is actually empty-handed. There are no good prospects among the disciples. Except for Ji Qingyun and Qian Zhishui, there are few in the entire sect who can fight, so they just show off their power around Songshan Mountain.
However, there was a lot of silver in the warehouse, and Li Fenglan extorted two thousand taels of silver. They only had one carriage and it was not convenient to carry so much, so they took 500 taels first and left 1,500 taels for them to deliver to Bai's house the next day. They have the leverage in their hands, so they are not afraid of Qian Zhishui's disobedience.
Sitting in the carriage, Li Fenglan was thinking about how to spend the money and who Xu Zhenbiao was, while Amber sat aside with her legs crossed and her chin on her knees, looking very worried.
Ever since she left the Songshan sect, Amber has been acting strangely. She doesn't speak much and has lost the innocent smile on her face.
Li Fenglan had been inseparable from her since childhood, so she naturally knew what Amber was thinking.
"Amber," Li Fenglan leaned over and said cautiously, "are you still scared?"
Amber nodded.
Li Fenglan held Amber in her arms and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? Even if he is injured, he is not dead and will not die."
"Miss...will it feel bad if you kill someone?"
"Don't talk nonsense, you didn't kill anyone."
"I know, but at that moment, I understood the feeling of killing... I was very scared... Are others like me?"
Zhu Mingyu outside the car suddenly said: "Some people are not like this. Many people do not feel guilty and just kill. If you kill someone and feel scared, uneasy, or even vomiting, it means that you are a normal person and a good person." It’s normal for you to have this reaction, and you’ll be fine in a few days.”
Although he said this, Zhu Mingyu felt that Amber might doubt herself through this incident. Fighting is not scary, losing is not scary, being beaten to death is not scary, the scary thing is doubting oneself. Throughout the ages, many proud men have been defeated by self-doubt.
Chenwu continued: "Huh, why don't you just stab someone? What's there to be afraid of? Women are women, they don't have the guts."
Li Fenglan kicked Chen Wu through the car curtain and scolded: "Who asked you to come out? Come back here!"
Chenwu raised her eyebrows but said nothing more.
Li Fenglan suddenly remembered that Amber's air blade can be up to four inches long. This time it rushed out to be more than a foot long. It must be Zhang Chengqing's reason for washing Amber's marrow, which caused Amber to misjudge his own strength, which led to the stabbing. Qian Zhishui.
So Li Fenglan said angrily: "It's all your fault, Master."
"Ah?" Zhu Mingyu wondered, "What does this have to do with my master?"
"If your master hadn't cleansed the amber's marrow, would the amber be able to sting someone?"
"Okay, okay, whatever you say to Langu is yours." Xin said: They are indeed good sisters, they even look like venting their anger on others.
Amber broke away from Li Fenglan's arms and whispered in Li Fenglan's ear: "Miss, what I'm afraid of is not killing people."
Li Fenglan asked doubtfully: "What is that?"
Amber lowered her head for a while, then raised her head and answered: "What I'm afraid of is... I was only afraid for a moment, and then I felt nothing at all."
No guilt.
Amber's eyes have never been so serious. She has been playful and playful since she was a child. She doesn't take anything to heart and is innocent. Maybe... she doesn't even care about murder?
Li Fenglan suddenly felt that Amber was strange, it was not like Amber. She remembered that when she was a child, three people ran into the woods to play and got lost. They didn't get out of the woods all day. The three of them were hungry and scared. Later, Jade caught a pheasant and decided to kill it and roast it. But Amber was very scared. She felt that the pheasant was so pitiful. Why did she kill it? Of course, after the pheasant was roasted, Amber ate most of it. In Kohaku's view at that time, the mission of people or animals is to live, why should they die?
The reason why Amber whispered was because he was afraid that Zhu Mingyu would hear it, but unfortunately, Zhu Mingyu always had good hearing, so he still heard what Amber said.
"Hey," Zhu Mingyu said softly with a slight sigh, "I hope the green mountains will remain the same..."
Who knows what this world will turn them into.
