A knife in love

Chapter 136

Zhao Zhen wanted to say more, but he saw Liu Zongyan waved his left hand, and with a "slap", he was slapped on the face again.

Zhao Zhen had an angry expression on his face, clenched his hands into fists, and trembled all over, showing that he was extremely angry.Liu Zongyan turned a blind eye to him, and said to the crowd in black, "Let's go."

Holding an umbrella in his right hand, Liu Zongyan walked past Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan without even looking at them again.More than [-] men in black followed silently, really following the same pace, for fear of falling behind.

Zhao Zhen stood in front of the high platform, his chest heaved unceasingly, his eyes seemed to shoot fire, he wanted to speak a few times, but finally he let out a sigh of relief and strode out.But when he walked past Li Qiufeng, he sneered and said, "Lord Li, you are so majestic and powerful!"

Li Qiufeng smiled slightly, and said: "Compared to Mr. Zhao's official authority of playing with the heroes of the world in his hands, Li is far behind."

Zhao Zhen's expression changed, but when he saw Li Qiufeng holding the knife right, he didn't dare to say any more, so he had to leave quickly.

I saw Liu Zongyan and the others walked more than twenty feet away, already beyond the light of the candles, their figures became more and more blurred, and finally disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Murong Danyan breathed a sigh of relief and was about to speak when he saw the beautiful woman in white walking a few steps forward, knelt down in front of Li Qiufeng with a "plop", and said sadly: "Please let me go!" Boy! In the past 12 years, I haven't missed him for a single day, thinking that he, he is dead..."

Seeing her desolate words, Murong Danyan felt sympathetic, turned his head to Li Qiufeng and said, "Brother Li, since the enemy has already left, you can just let this child go."

Li Qiufeng raised his foot, stretched out his hand to pick up the young man, and placed him in front of him.The beautiful woman in white hurriedly stood up, frantically stretched out her sleeves to wipe his face that had been trampled by Li Qiufeng.

The boy closed his eyes with disgust on his face, and he ignored the beautiful woman in white.

The beautiful woman in white looked at the young man with joy, her eyes were full of tenderness, and she said softly, "Ming'er, you didn't know how happy I was when I knew you were still alive yesterday. Ever since he told me you After death, mother will not know who she is, now that our family is reunited, even if mother is dead, she can rest in peace!"

"You're not my mother! I don't have a mother either!" The boy opened his eyes and shouted at the beautiful woman in white.

The white woman's face was miserable, her body trembling slightly, said: "Didn't your grandfather tell you all about it? I, I am your mother!"

"My mother is dead long ago! She should have died long ago!" the boy said through gritted teeth.At this time, there was no panic on his face anymore, and he became the brave and stubborn young man who stabbed Xiao Zhanpeng with a sword that day.

Li Qiufeng looked at the young man coldly and said, "Have you killed many heroes?"

The boy raised his head and said proudly, "That's right. It's a pity I didn't kill you."

Li Qiufeng said: "If you want to kill me, don't worry. Liu Zongyan was known as the world's number one swordsman in the past. He taught you for three years, which is better than others teaching you for 30 years. You practice swords with him well. After three years, you may be able to fight with me." A battle."

The boy sneered, "Will you let me go?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I didn't promise Liu Zongyan to let you go. As I said, if I'm in a good mood, maybe I can let you go."

The boy was slightly startled, and said: "They all misunderstood you."

Li Qiufeng sneered and said, "I hope you don't get it wrong."

The young man said: "Is this the chivalrous way of you Han people in the Central Plains?"

Li Qiufeng said: "Countering chivalrous ways with chivalry, and dealing with deceitful ways with tricks, I did the right thing."

The young man said: "The Han people in the Central Plains are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality. Didn't your teacher teach you to repay grievances with virtue?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head and said: "Look at your appearance, you haven't yet reached the point where you can't distinguish between black and white, good and evil. Presumably you are also someone who admires my Chinese civilization and has read sage books?"

The boy opened his mouth and wanted to refute, but he couldn't refute, so he could only "hum" and stared at Li Qiufeng viciously.

Li Qiufeng didn't care about it, and said: "You are good at martial arts, and you are also ruthless. When you attack, you don't distinguish between good and evil. As long as you can kill your opponent, you will do anything. The person who taught you literary and martial arts wants to come to me. The Central Plains dismissed me and treated me like nothing. It’s just that you have to use the Central Plains language to read books written by sages, which makes you very unhappy.”

The young man was slightly taken aback, and lowered his head thoughtfully.

Li Qiufeng said: "You see that the Central Plains is unworthy, but you have to admit that you have received the favor of the Central Plains. This makes you annoyed and a little ashamed, so you are more vicious than others in massacring the Central Plains martial arts people. , and exhausted all the shame in my heart. If I still talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality to you, a treacherous villain who is inferior to animals, wouldn't I be so stupid that I am inferior to pigs and dogs?"

The young man was speechless after Li Qiufeng's refutation, but only showed a beast-like gaze.Li Qiufeng laughed and said: "I didn't want to kill you at first. It's just that you are talented, and you practice swords very hard. The person who taught you swordsmanship is also very good. If I don't get rid of you, I'm afraid it will be three years later." I can't control you. Besides, in the past three years, that person will have you compete with the Central Plains martial arts masters. I don't know how many heroes will be injured by your hands. I will kill you today to avoid future troubles .”

The boy's face turned pale immediately, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he said in a trembling voice: "Didn't you chivalrously threaten that you wouldn't kill them all?"

Li Qiufeng sneered and said: "Li was born in Jinyiwei, he is not a member of the martial arts, and he is not a chivalrous person. Whether it is public or private, you should be killed!"

The beautiful woman in white was so frightened that her complexion changed drastically, and she knelt down on the ground again, begging bitterly, and finally fell to the ground and cried loudly.

Li Qiufeng slowly pulled out his long knife, fixed his eyes on the young man and said: "In September of the sixth year of Jiajing, Master Yang, the master of Piguaquan in Hejian Prefecture, fought with a visiting mysterious swordsman. In an ordinary martial arts contest, this swordsman was merciless. He beheaded old boxer Yang within ten strokes, and then cut off his only son's limbs, turning him into a cripple.

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year in the seventh year of Jiajing, Xiema Villa in Fenyang Prefecture advocated that Yu compete with a swordsman, but seven moves were cut in two by the opponent, and four disciples were killed. In October of the seventh year of Jiajing, Hanzhong Master Lu, the descendant of the Qingcheng School of Fu Qingcheng, had already gained the upper hand in the martial arts competition with others, but he suffered a loss on the sword. The long sword was cut off by the opponent, so Master Lu stopped fighting and conceded defeat. The sword stabbed Master Lu to death. Several Jianghu seniors at the scene stepped forward to argue, but were all killed by the enemy. In June of the ninth year of Jiajing, Mr. Chen from Wuchang Mansion held a [-]th birthday banquet. Mr. Chen was from the Wudang School Standing alone in Huguang, he is a chivalrous man with a heart of chivalry. He is a senior respected by everyone in the martial arts. However, at the birthday feast, there was a child who challenged Mr. Chen. The two fought with more than a hundred moves, and Mr. Chen restrained the child. Old Mr. Chen clicked on it, but he didn't expect that child to attack unexpectedly, piercing Mr. Chen's throat with a sword..."

When Li Qiufeng said this, the young man looked terrified, as if he was in an ice cave, his teeth collided with each other and made a "cracking" sound, and said in a trembling voice: "You, how do you know these things..."

Li Qiufeng put the long knife lightly on the young man's neck, and said with a sneer, "Didn't the master who taught you read tell you? If you want people not to know, you have to do nothing. You use these heroes to teach you, The means of killing are ever-changing, but what kind of chivalry are you talking about? How about repaying grievances with virtue. In the final analysis, you can not be bound by the morals of the world, and you can kill as you want, but you want others to show benevolence and morality to you. You have taken advantage of all the good things, and your wishful thinking is very good."

Seeing that Li Qiufeng's sword was like snow, the beautiful woman in white had already left a thin red mark on the young man's neck. She was so frightened that her liver and gallbladder were torn apart, she took two steps on her knees and said, "Master, please let go of your name. He, he It's just a child, and it's only at the instigation of others that he will kill people. Please forgive him, and I will take him back to his hometown, thousands of miles away, and never dare to go to the Central Plains to do evil again." After finishing speaking, he kowtowed in the ground , Straight to smash his forehead, and blood flowed profusely.

The young man showed disgust, but now that his life was in the hands of his opponent, he didn't dare to be as stubborn as before, he just breathed heavily.

Li Qiufeng sneered and said: "Although that man teaches you to read and write, he is only a half bottle of jealousy, and his swordsmanship is so-so, but he has read this sage's book crookedly. Repaying a grievance with virtue is the words of Confucius, but he taught You are taking the meaning out of context. The original words of Confucius are "How to repay virtue? Repay grievances with sincerity, and repay virtue with virtue!" , I don’t resist, I want to use virtue to influence him, is this good? Confucius replied: “Repay a grievance with virtue, so how can you repay virtue? When others treat you well, you should naturally treat others well. If others treat you badly, you don’t have to Tell him about benevolence, righteousness and morality. Kid, do you remember?"
