Li Shi, the leader of the Huashan School, the "Taiyue Divine Sword", is over fifty years old. He has a face like a crown of jade, a calm temperament, and is inexpressible in his emotions and anger. Standing around him are all the disciples of the leader, headed by Li Yizhu, Gao Gao There were about a dozen people, tall and short, including Liu Yue, the chief escort of the Red Dragon Escort Agency. In recent years, Li Shi has entrusted the affairs of his sect to his disciple Li Yizhu. If nothing else happens, he will be the first choice for the next leader of the Huashan sect.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The Huashan School has a great cause and is not monolithic. The Huashan sect has five peaks and five branches, the north peak is Yuntai, the west peak is lotus, the south peak is Luoyan, the east peak is Chaoyang, and the middle peak is Jade Girl. The current leader Li Shi lives on Luoyan peak, and the other four peaks are connected with the same energy. It is also the main story of Huashan sect. .
Guo Chuanlin knelt upright in the court, facing many sharp eyes, and frankly told how he joined the rebels.
"...My ancestors are from Hetao. They have been farming for generations, relying on the weather for food. When I was a child, there was a drought in my hometown. The bare land was thousands of miles away, and I couldn't get a grain of food. The old and young in the village were so hungry that they had no choice but to escape, chewing tree bark and eating Guanyin along the way. Many people died in the soil, and their bodies were rolled up on reed mats and buried hastily, only to be dragged out and eaten by wild dogs.”
"Those wild dogs became fat and strong. They followed us in groups and became more and more courageous. At first, they only gnawed on corpses. Later, they even dared to eat the elderly and children who were alone. We did not have the strength to fight with the wild dogs. To fight, I had to let them follow behind, with red eyes and salivation, like the bull-headed and horse-faced men of the Lord of Hell."
"The drought is not getting better and is getting worse. My parents, a brother and a little sister all starved to death and fell into the stomachs of wild dogs. Zhao Bohai's men happened to be passing by there to recruit young men. I gritted my teeth and said, So I surrendered to them. At that time, Zhao Bohai had not betrayed the imperial court. I was in the garrison camp and followed him to fight everywhere. I could lose my head at any time, but I finally had something to eat."
Li Shi interrupted gently: "Guo Chuanlin, you didn't tell the truth. What did you hide?"
Guo Chuanlin was silent for a long time, smiled bitterly, lowered his head and said: "...My little sister did not starve to death, nor was she eaten by wild dogs. My father was very hungry, so he washed and skinned her and made a pot of broth. , he ate everything by himself. His eyes were blood-red, just like those wild dogs. My mother hugged my brother and me, not daring to say anything."
The hall was quiet, and no one urged him.
"...Later, it was my brother's turn. He was my mother's darling. My mother tried her best to protect him, but my father hit her with the back of a hatchet, right on the back of her head. My mother fell down and never opened her eyes again. Eyes. Dad... After eating his brother, he ate my mother, and finally he wanted to eat me. Just as Zhao Bohai's men were passing by, a cook named Zhang Leli couldn't see it, so he chopped my father off and saved my life. .”
"Everyone in the family died, and I was the only one left with no place to go, so I became a soldier with Zhang Shili, just to make ends meet... Zhao Bohai raised his troops to cause rebellion, so I became a rebel in confusion, and marched eastward and westward. Begging, slaughtering the city, killing people, robbing women, robbing property... Later, Mr. Han joined the rebels. He was also from Hetao. For the sake of fellow villagers, he took care of me, and I am lucky to be alive today."
Li Yizhu suddenly felt pity for him.
Guo Chuanlin took a deep breath, suppressed his grief and anger, and continued. He talked about how the rebels captured Guliang City and massacred the city for three days. They found Qin's father and daughter in the darkroom of Qin's house, accepted the jade jewelry and let them go. Jiang Ermao came unexpectedly and bullied the weak woman. He was For peace of mind, worthy of those priceless jewels, kill him by surprise.
He did not dare to steal the jewelry, so he presented the items in the bag to Mr. Han. Han Bing accepted the jade bracelet and bead chain, left him an "old glass jade" pendant, and told him that the three books were green The martial arts secrets of the Cheng Sect. In troubled times, without the means to save his life, he was unable to move forward. He begged Mr. Han to teach him sword skills, and Han Bing threw an old book to him and asked him to practice by himself according to the sword manual.
Hearing this, Li Shi sighed softly, with a gentle look on his face, as if he remembered the past many years ago. However, the gentle expression only lasted for a moment. Li Shi immediately returned to normal, and said calmly: "The Qin family and our Huashan sect are family friends. Qin Shouye's sister is my junior sister. You saved him when the rebels massacred the city. Father and daughter, whether they are brave enough to do justice or greedy for money, no matter what the purpose is, they always do a good deed. You don’t care about your heart in everything. Qin Rong also told me about you. You are not deeply involved in the world. It’s a pity to go astray…”
Guo Chuanlin was so blessed that he kowtowed three times and said loudly with a loud bang: "Master Li, please accept me as a disciple. I will definitely change my past and be a new person!"
Li Shi stared into his eyes, and Guo Chuanlin faced him calmly, not avoiding his gaze. He nodded slightly and said: "Yizhu, let him be your disciple. It's a good idea to teach him, don't miss the talent that can be made."
Li Yizhu agreed, feeling a little surprised. He didn't understand why the master valued him so much.
Dealing with Guo Chuanlin was just a trivial matter. The leader of the Huashan faction had other important matters to discuss. Li Yizhu summoned Hong Kun and gave the leader's instructions in an understated manner, ordering him to lead his junior brother there and find a place to settle down. In the future, I will return to Luoyan Peak and perform the ceremony of apprenticeship again. Although Hong Kun was surprised, his face remained calm. He politely called "Junior Brother Guo" and led him to the west wing.
Li Qixian jumped up to meet him, and pulled his senior brother to ask what was going on. Hong Kun was unable to be pestered by her and left out a few words about what his master had ordered. Li Qixian secretly said: "Sure enough, Sister Qin has taken him in, and the master has to accept him even if he pinches his nose! But it's okay to be under dad's sect. I will protect him and see who dares to cause trouble!"
She blinked, smiled like a flower, and said half jokingly and half seriously: "Junior Brother Guo, can you call Senior Sister to come and listen?"
Guo Chuanlin looked into her eyes and said with a smile: "I'm new here, so if I'm not polite enough, I'd like to ask my senior sister to show my respect."
Li Qixian was so excited that he patted his chest and said, "That's right, I'll leave it to you, senior sister. If someone bullies you in the future, just tell me and let me take it out on you!"
Hong Kun saw it in his eyes and heard it in his ears, and sighed secretly in his heart, feeling very embarrassed. Junior sister and Qin Rong are close friends, and their friendship is extraordinary. Qin Rong will go to the immortal city, and they will be separated from each other from now on. Junior sister Lan Xinhuizhi will definitely try her best to retain this relationship. Guo Chuanlin is Qin Rong's mortal bond. , fell on him, and we would not meet again until later. But he vaguely felt that Guo Chuanlin's background was not simple. He joined the Huashan Sect and climbed to the Luoyan Peak. He didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
Li Qixian kept chattering to herself. This time it was half testing and half curiosity. Hong Kun interrupted her and interjected a few gossips, saying, "Junior brother Guo has come a long way and is tired from traveling. It is best to rest first. My fellow disciples Senior brother, we have a long time to come, so don't rush into talking." Li Qixian glanced at his junior brother intently, and saw that he was full of energy and did not look "tired from running around". He flattened his mouth unconsciously, then thought about it, and went in a hurry After telling Qin Rong, he let him go with a noble hand.
Hong Kun placed Guo Chuanlin alone next to him, said a few polite words, and gently closed the door. Guo Chuanlin looked around. There was only a table, a chair, and a bed in the guest room. There was nothing else. The quilt was very thin and had a faint musty smell. There were vague human voices in the distance. They seemed to be disciples of the Huashan Sect. , talking about irrelevant gossip.
From Guliang City to Geling Town, from the rebels to the Huashan Faction, he allowed himself to be dealt with by his fate, without deliberately striving for anything or resisting anything. He had such confidence that no matter what happened, he could turn danger into danger with a pair of fists. , to find a way out. However, when he faced Li Shi, the "Taiyue Divine Sword", he lost his calmness. The head of the Huashan Sect showed a hint of hidden threat, which made him deeply regret that he did not save the remaining half of the wolf. Eat the corpse.
Only when you eat it is in your stomach, you are your own strength!
