Shao Chongyang suffered internal and external injuries after repeated fights. If Taoist Master Jingxu wanted to kill him, there would be no chance of survival. If you want to survive, you can only retreat in order to advance, take a gamble, and see if you can impress Taoist Jingxu's kindness, so that you can get charity and get through.
So he calculated his countermeasures, and with luck in mind, he threw away his sword, closed his eyes, and said happily: "Let's do it! Jingxu. If you kill one of me and save my entire sect, I, Shao Chongyang, will die a worthy death."
Taoist priest Jingxu had heard about it, and he didn't know whether he was temporarily attracted by Shao Chongyang's righteous appearance, or whether he really didn't want to forge a grudge with the Great Songyang Gate of Zhongyue Songshan, or he had no intention of becoming an enemy of the Dragon Slaying Society and getting into trouble in the world. The sword in his hand Intentionally or unintentionally, he lowered his head and stood there motionless, with a calm expression on his face, as if he wanted to let Shao Chongyang go.
Hu Yiqiu saw that the momentum was not good. Although he had no authority to order Master Jingxu to do things he didn't want to do, he really couldn't find a reason to let Shao Chongyang go. In desperation, he flicked his wrist and stabbed Shao Chongyang's throat with a sword.
As the chill hit him, Shao Chongyang instinctively opened his eyes suddenly. In the blink of an eye, a dagger flashed out from his sleeve on one side of his body, stabbing Hu Yiqiu's heart with a clean and neat movement.
This poisonous move that uses silence to stop and strike later was originally prepared for Taoist Master Jingxu. Shao Chongyang had already planned in his heart that it would be best if Taoist Jingxu had the kindness to let him go. Otherwise, if he killed him unexpectedly, no one present would be his opponent. Even if he can't easily break through the Seven Star Sword Formation, destroy the Sanqing Temple, kill Qin Haoming, complete the mission of slaying the dragon, and escape with his accomplices, it's no big deal.
Unexpectedly, it was unexpected that the one who drew the sword was Hu Yiqiu's half-dead defeated general, not the Taoist Jingxu who temporarily controlled life and death and deserved to die. As soon as the dagger in his sleeve came out, he immediately regretted it, his life was over!
Qin Haoming never believed that Shao Chongyang was serious about dying. He was always vigilant and his inner strength had already been condensed in his palms. Seeing the dagger in Shao Chongyang's sleeve, he unconsciously slapped Hu Yiqiu with his palm, just to let Hu Yiqiu avoid the sudden stab. He knew that his internal injuries were too severe and his palm strength was not enough to cause harm to Shao Chongyang.
Hu Yiqiu was seriously injured, and it was difficult to stand still. He could not withstand the force of Qin Haoming's palm from the side, and was instantly knocked away. He was very lucky to avoid Shao Chongyang's fatal sword.
Taoist priest Jingxu saw that it was a lie that Shao Chongyang generously died, but it was true that he deliberately murdered himself. If Qin Haoming hadn't been familiar with the ghosts and tricks in the world and had been prepared for it, Hu Yiqiu would have become a victim of his good intentions. Regret immediately filled his chest, and he devoted all his cultivation to the sword. He sent the move "Eliminating Evil" towards Shao Chongyang as fast as lightning, with a momentum like a rainbow.
Shao Chongyang stabbed Hu Yiqiu in the air with his sword. While feeling regretful, he also anticipated what would happen next. He rolled on the spot and picked up the sword on the ground. When he saw Taoist Master Jingxu stabbing him with his sword, he jumped back to avoid its sharp edge before making further calculations.
Taoist Priest Jingxu already knows that once a person like Shao Chongyang, who is highly skilled in martial arts, duplicitous, and cunning, is offended, if he does not want to leave any further trouble, he must be offended to the end and eradicated. One sword pierces the air, another catches up with the sword, the sword is sharp and cruel, just to eliminate hidden dangers, without any thoughts of charity.
Shao Chongyang saw that Jingxudao's long sword was approaching his vital point, and each sword was faster than the other, and each sword was more cruel than the last. He was afraid that he would not die. So he put away any illusions and faced the challenge calmly, constantly looking for flaws in Jingxu Dao's long sword technique so that he could take advantage of the opportunity and defeat the enemy with one move.
People in the Taoist sect practice swordsmanship and always pay attention to the combination of hardness and softness, attacking with defense, defending with offense, and rationality reveals wisdom. Taoist Priest Jingxu is no exception. He has practiced swordsmanship for decades and has become extremely proficient in swordsmanship. If he is not a person who has reached the highest level of swordsmanship, it would be simply wishful thinking to find fault with his swordsmanship.
After a dozen moves, Shao Chongyang not only failed to achieve what he wanted, but found a flaw in Taoist Master Jingxu's swordsmanship and defeated the enemy with one move. He was also stabbed in his limbs by Taoist Jingxu's long sword, and he drew the sword. He became more and more conservative, and his dodges became slower and slower. From time to time, he glanced at the men in black robes with gold and silver threads that he brought from the main altar, praying to God to grant them wisdom, and quickly broke through the seven-star sword formation. Come and help yourself.
Unfortunately, wisdom comes from the feelings after knowing. They put on black robes and are so stupid that it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad. They only know how to do evil but not good. How could God give them wisdom for no reason and let them poison living creatures easily? In addition to being constantly wasted by the Taoist Seven Star Sword Formation, he gradually lost the ability to control his own life and death, and was overwhelmed with self-care. How could he be free to help him, Shao Chongyang.
Facing Taoist Priest Jingxu's pressing step by step, Shao Chongyang wanted Taoist Jingxu to angrily stab him with a sword. When he stabbed himself to death, he was also stabbed to death by himself, resolving this relationship that should not exist. enmity.
Taoist Master Jingxu seemed to have seen through Shao Chongyang's sinister intentions. Every time he drew his sword, it was fleeting and never lingered for more than a moment, leaving Shao Chongyang with no chance to take advantage of him except being constantly injured.
After more than a dozen gestures, Shao Chongyang focused on defense. In addition to being injured, he was still bleeding. He couldn't calm down. He put life and death aside, turned passivity into initiative, and forced counterattack into offense.
To ascend to heaven and become an immortal walking on behalf of heaven is the highest state of a Taoist. Taoist Master Jingxu has been meditating for decades, and he naturally has the good intention of doing justice for heaven in his heart. He never thought of stabbing Shao Chongyang to death with a sword. He just didn't want to hurt the enemy by one thousand and then hurt himself by eight hundred, so that he could keep a useful body. Continue to practice good deeds. Seeing Shao Chongyang's angrily counterattack, his swordsmanship was messy and full of loopholes, so I took advantage of my opportunity to deflect Shao Chongyang's sword attacks and return blows, hitting his vital parts, making Shao Chongyang more and more exhausted. Furious.
Every time Shao Chongyang drew his sword, he received a share of damage to himself. After ten or so forcible attacks, the wrist holding the sword trembled, the sword was knocked down, and his throat was cut by Taoist Master Jingxu's sword, and his legs collapsed. , fell to the ground speechlessly, with anger toward God in his eyes, and with a few curses on Taoist Jingxu in his mouth, he passed away angrily.
Qin Haoming has studied under Jiang Qingcheng for more than 20 years and has cultivated a righteous spirit. Although he was later controlled by others and was forced to join the Dragon Slaying Society, his kindness was still there and he knew that saving one life was better than building a seven-level pagoda. Seeing that Shao Chongyang was dead, most of the other men in black robes were his former subordinates. They put on black robes and worked for the tiger, all thanks to the dragon slaying. Others may not know how much bad karma they have done in the past, but Qin Haoming knows it very well. Chao Jingxu said to the Taoist Priest: "Taoist Priest, although those people cover their heads with black cloth and have become the hawks and dogs of the Dragon Slaying Association. They have bad karma, but they can't help it. If you are willing to correct your evil ways and break away from the Dragon Slaying Association, you might as well show kindness and give them A path to rehabilitation.”
Taoist Master Jingxu had no intention of killing them all, but had concerns. However, when he saw Qin Haoming's sincere plea for mercy, he was moved and turned his attention to Hu Yiqiu.
Hu Yiqiu recalled his road to fame and knew that it is possible for people to make mistakes. Knowing his mistakes and being able to correct them is better than anything else. So he replied: "Master Taoist, no one has any faults. If they can correct their faults, there is no greater good. As long as they are willing to change their minds and stop working for the Dragon Slaying Society and harming the righteous people in the martial arts world, leaving them a kind thought will also leave a good thought for themselves." Kind thoughts."
Taoist Master Jingxu smiled slightly, walked closer to the battle circle, and said loudly: "Everyone, let's stop here!"
Upon hearing this, the Taoists stopped attacking, put away the Seven-Star Sword Formation, and instead surrounded about twenty men in black robes.
The man in black robe was worried about his wealth and life, and was relieved to see the Taoist priests withdrawing from the sword array. Their legs were sore and weak, and a dozen people sat down on the ground, panting.
Among the dozen or so men in black robes standing, two men in black robes with gold threads and three men in black robes with silver threads should have followed Shao Chongyang from the main altar. The weapons in their hands were not loosened even a little bit, and they were glaring at Qin Haoming, as if It is a shame for them that Qin Haoming is alive, so they have the illusion that they want to get rid of it quickly.
Qin Haoming glanced lightly at the man in black robes with gold silk who had ambushed them in the woods. Seeing his eyes full of malice, he asked: "Wei Long, do you want to be like Shao Chongyang and go back without carrying my head for fear of betrayal?" Not bad?"
Wei Long replied solemnly: "Qin Haoming, as the leader of the White Tiger Hall, you have openly taken the lead in betraying the Dragon Slaying Association. If my lord lets you go, what will you use to discipline the world in the future?"
Qin Haoming asked coldly: "Could it be that you want to decide my head?"
Wei Long glanced at the four people around him and said, "You openly betrayed the Dragon Slayer Association, and everyone will punish you."
Qin Haoming asked the other four people around Wei Long, "Do you also want my head on my neck?"
Another man in black robe with gold silk took two steps forward and replied: "Qin Haoming, it's not that we want your head on your neck, it's the Lord Tu Long who wants your head on your neck. As the law enforcers of the Dragon Slaying Association, we, I will obey my lord’s orders.”
Qin Haoming looked at Taoist Jingxu, with mixed feelings in his eyes, which he might not be able to understand for a while.
Taoist Master Jingxu asked the five men in black robes: "Wei Long, has the Dragon Slaying Association become your natal family? Are you no longer able to leave the Dragon Slaying Association?"
The man in black robe with silver silk thread replied: "Jingxu, you can't afford to offend the Dragon Slaying Association. I advise you to hand over Qin Haoming honestly, so as not to suffer the consequences in the future."
Taoist Master Jingxu has killed Shao Chongyang. He has been offended whether he should have been offended or not, so what else can he have to worry about? He said softly: "If I insist on saving Qin Haoming, what should you do?"
Wei Long sneered and said: "Jingxu, if you really want to protect Qin Haoming today, you will become the enemy of the Dragon Slayer Association. The days are long, just wait and see, what's the rush?"
Taoist Master Jingxu shouted coldly: "Okay, then the five of you can stay. There is no need to leave. Otherwise, when we meet again in the future, we will mistake enemies for friends and make a joke."
A man in black robe with silver silk thread said quickly: "What do you want?"
Taoist Master Jingxu said: "What else can I do? Please come to my Sanqing Temple as a guest and stay for a long time. When will the Dragon Slaying Club disappear from the world and when will I let you go down the mountain?"
Wei Long shouted angrily: "How dare you?"
Taoist Master Jingxu shouted: "Junior Brother Ge, take down five people."
Taoist priest Ge pulled out the long sword in his hand, jumped over with several of his fellow apprentices, and fought with Shen Xingchen and the other five, and the fighting reignited. Suddenly the sword shadows were flying, the cold light was dazzling, and there was a clanking sound.
Due to the fact that the five Weilongs had been injured by the Seven-Star Sword Array, and a few veterans had extraordinary martial arts skills, they could only fight for about ten rounds, with one of them losing, and all of them being defeated. Thinking that the days of being imprisoned would be difficult in the future, the word "begging for mercy" began to appear in his words, but it was too late.
With Shao Chongyang's righteousness in front of him, Taoist Master Jingxu remained unmoved by the words of those who dared to believe those who were forced to do nothing, and categorically rejected the oath made by the five people of Weilong.
Qin Haoming saw that Shao Chongyang was killed on the spot, and the five Weilong men were all taken down. With a template for reference, he said to the other men in black robes: "Hao Dashu, Tulong has done many evil things, and now he is helping the party members to resist the Song Dynasty. Selling your nation will lead to death in the end. Although you have followed me and done some wrong things, you have not betrayed your nation, and it is still too late to turn back now."
Hao Dashu and others looked at each other, remembering the virtues of their ancestors, puffing up their chests, and said openly: "From now on, we will make a clean break with the Dragon Slaying Society. We will not be in conflict with each other, and we will never be sinners of the nation."
Qin Haoming held back his pain, showed a knowing smile, and said: "Okay! You just go back, and when I can use you all, I will visit you one by one, and together we will help to eliminate the Dragon Slayer Guild and pay for the past sins." Industry."
The man in black robe cupped his fists and said, "Danyangzi, see you later."
Qin Haoming cupped his fists and said goodbye: "See you later."
Those who deserved to die have died, those who deserved to be imprisoned have been captured, those who are willing to repent have been let go, and the matter has been resolved.
Hu Yiqiu, his wife, Qin Haoming and his daughter were kindly persuaded by Taoist Master Jingxu to stay. They followed the Taoist priests up to Sanqing Mountain, just to recover from their injuries so as not to meet the killers of the Dragon Slaying Society on the way back and need help from others. .
