At dusk, the merchant ship docked in the wilderness by the river. Boss Jin ordered the boatman to prepare a big fish, fry two or three side dishes, and invited Guo Chuanlin to have a drink. The clouds and clouds are as magnificent as brocade, covering most of the sky, red and red, and the river is surging. The sun is setting in the west, the light and shadow are dimming, and the Cangshan Mountains and sparse forests in the distance are like in a painting, all smudged with light ink.
Guo Chuanlin picked up the wine glass and poured the cold wine into his mouth, suddenly feeling a trace of sadness for no reason. Alone, alone, that day at Luoyan Peak in Huashan Mountain, I spent time with Hong Kun and Li Qixian, running all over the mountain carrying a bucket. I thought it was ordinary, but now I feel a little nostalgic. I don’t know how Master is doing, how are brothers and sisters doing? The two big living people were nowhere to be found. Luoyan Peak was making a lot of noise, but it must have calmed down a long time ago, right? Does anyone still remember and mention him and Qin Rong?
The night was dark, and the first quarter moon was reflected in the river. The water was clear and clear. Guo Chuanlin's wine was dry and he was a little tipsy. Suddenly he was not interested, so he stood up and cupped his hands towards Boss Jin, said "Sorry", returned to his boat, got into the cabin and fell asleep.
When he slept until midnight, he was startled by the sound of swords clashing.
Guo Chuanlin stood up and came outside the cabin, listening attentively. There seemed to be people fighting in the woods on the shore. Drawing a sword to help when the road is rough is a fool's errand. The world is in turmoil. You can't tell right from wrong. You have offended big people and evil stars in your confusion. You have no place to cry when you regret it. It has nothing to do with you. This is the most important thing to cherish your life and protect yourself.
He had no intention of intervening, but the swords clashed one after another, as close as a drum, and a woman exclaimed, seemingly disappointed, but it sounded familiar. There were not many women he knew well in his life, so Guo Chuanlin frowned unconsciously, took out the long sword from his bag, quietly came to the shore, and ran towards the sparse woods.
He heard the woman's breathing, rapid and heavy, unable to do what she wanted. There were at least two opponents. One of them wielded a heavy weapon such as a mace and whirred loudly. The other person held down the battle next to him and yelled: "Smelly." Girl, if you dare to hurt your grandfather, I will strip you naked and fuck your mother!"
The smoke and clouds gradually dispersed, and the moonlight shone in the forest. Guo Chuanlin's eyes narrowed slightly. The woman trapped in the beast fight turned out to be Li Yizhu's daughter Li Qixian. Her hair was messy and she was covered in blood. It was obvious that she could not last long.
The person she fought with was about forty years old, tall and muscular. He used a big iron whip to move Li Qixian's limbs, intending to capture her alive and not to harm her life. The other man was holding a long knife to the ground. His forehead was shiny and hairless, and his right leg was tightly wrapped with a rag near the knee. Blood seeped out and soaked the entire trousers.
He coughed and stepped deliberately. The injured man quickly turned his head and said in a loud voice: "Which way is it? The Liusha Gang is doing business here. If you are wise, go away!"
Guo Chuanlin said coldly: "The Quicksand Gang? Even people from the Huashan Sect dare to touch them, how courageous they are!"
"Tch, that girl has been expelled from the Huashan Sect a long time ago. Whoever can escort her to Huashan will be rewarded heavily by Master Li!"
"He Tietou, don't talk nonsense!" The man who made the iron whip felt that he was coming with bad intentions. He immediately threw away Li Qixian and put all his attention on it. He slowly walked up to Guo Chuanlin, looked up and down, and shouted: " Who are you?"
Li Qixian was already exhausted. A smile appeared on his pale face, and he said intermittently: "Senior...Senior Brother..." He relaxed and fell to the ground.
"He is from the Huashan Sect!" He Tietou shouted.
That made the man with the iron whip stunned for a moment, a smile appeared on his ugly face, and he clasped his fists and said: "It turns out he is a hero of the Huashan faction, disrespect, disrespect! I am the deputy leader of the Liusha Gang, Zheng Kuisan, who is assisting you on the order of the gang leader. Send to capture the traitors.”
"Traitor? Who is the traitor?"
Zheng Kuisan looked stunned and asked, "Your Excellency, you don't know about this?"
Guo Chuanlin said: "I have been away from the mountain for a long time, so I don't know about this."
Zheng Kuisan's eyes flashed and he said: "Headmaster Li of the Huashan Sect sued the martial arts world. His great disciple Li Yizhu was a spy of the Qingcheng Sect. He went on a rampage and assassinated the headmaster. He was shot dead on the spot. The remaining survivors, Hong Kun and Li Qixian, were at large. People in the world were on the run. If their whereabouts are discovered, they will be killed without mercy!"
Li Qixian's voice was hoarse and he shouted feebly: "Brother, the Liusha Gang killed Senior Brother Hong, you must avenge him!"
Guo Chuanlin narrowed his eyes and said, "Did you kill Hong Kun?"
He Tietou was the first to say: "That kid injured more than a dozen of our brothers, and was finally beaten to death by Gang Leader Zheng..."
Hong Kun risked his life to protect Li Qixian and fled to Luoyan Peak. He traveled thousands of miles and was seriously injured. Finally, he fell into the hands of Liusha Gang and died in a fierce battle. Zheng Kuisan killed Hong Kun with his own hands and earned a lot of face. He was quite proud of himself on weekdays. Why? Tietou always managed to make him grin when he flattered her, but this time, Zheng Kuisan shuddered for no reason.
Guo Chuanlin said solemnly: "You deserve to be killed!" He took half a step forward, drew his sword out of its sheath, and stabbed Zheng Kuisan in the lower abdomen with the "Lone Branch Welcome" move.
Zheng Kuisan was startled, and he hurriedly raised his iron whip to block. Guo Chuanlin's sword gently and deftly pressed against the whip, and his body rotated at a high speed, cutting through the gap between the two of them, and bursting out with a dazzling sword light. Suddenly he stopped next to Li Qixian.
The light of the sword was like a sword, and it was withdrawn as soon as it was fired. Zheng Kuisan and He Tietou suffered numerous sword wounds on their chest and abdomen, which penetrated deep into his organs. Blood gushed out like a spring, and his vitality was rapidly passing away. Zheng Kuisan looked down at his wound with an incredulous expression and struggled: "This... this is not... the Huashan Sect's... swordsmanship..."
Zheng Kuisan is the deputy leader of the Liusha Gang, and he can be considered a well-informed person. He has heard of the most powerful swordsmanship of the Huashan Sect, some are dignified, some are agile, or some are sharp. They are so fierce and fierce that they can kill like a butcher. Dogs, however, are beyond my wildest dreams.
Guo Chuanlin returned the sword to its sheath, leaned over and picked up Li Qixian, checked his pulse, and felt relieved. Li Qixian smiled miserably, and said softly with a flat mouth: "You are not good at medicine, and you are still pretending to learn how to take someone's pulse..." Before he could finish his words, he felt dizzy in his head and fell into his arms and passed out.
Her jaw was sharp, she was thin and light, her face was completely childish, her body was curled up like a frightened kitten, her dry hair was tangled together, and it was hard to tell whether it was dirt or blood. Guo Chuanlin felt sad. What happened to make this beautiful girl look like this? Li Yizhu was a spy of the Qingcheng faction. He went on a rampage to assassinate the leader and was shot dead on the spot. What nonsense is this! His heart moved, and a chill suddenly arose. Li Yizhu mentioned that Qin Shouzhen and Feng Di were slandered one after another. The Huashan faction identified the murderer as Han Tianyuan, and it had been many years since Miss Qian's death. Han Tianyuan did not exist in the world, and the murderer could only be Han Bing and Han Dali, who are seeking revenge... If the murderer was another person from beginning to end, if Li Yizhu discovered the truth...
He lowered his head and looked at Li Qixian's face, thinking to himself, he didn't know how much she knew. Sometimes, the more she knew, the more painful it was.
