A knife in love

Chapter 784

After Changsun Guangming finished speaking, he felt relieved, clapped his hands together, and continued, "Hero Li, Mr. Situ, and Master Xuanji, what are the plans of the three of you after you leave this place?"

Li Qiufeng cupped his hands at Changsun Guangming, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Mr. Changsun, for his enlightenment. In the future, there will be one more ranger in the world, and one less tomb robber, which will save a lot of trouble. As for Li's future plans, let me tell you a few words." Implementation, now even I don’t know it myself. I can only say that one step at a time is counted as one step, and we can talk about it after leaving here.”

Situ Qiao said, "I plan to go back to the capital first, pick up my wife, leave Hua's house quietly, and find a safe place to live in seclusion."

Li Qiufeng and the others all knew that Situ Qiao was in the Zhuhua family, and he was usually suppressed, and he had a reputation of being henpecked in the world.It's just that according to what he said at this time, even if he retreats into the world, he will bring his wife with him.After all, the rumors in Jianghu are a bit unreliable, and the husband and wife may treat each other like guests.Thinking of this, the three of them smiled at the corners of their mouths.

Monk Xuanji clasped his hands together, and said: "Amitabha. Congratulations to Mr. Changsun and Mr. Situ for washing their hands in the golden basin, quitting the world, and being a happy man from now on. Wouldn't it be fun?"

Changsun Guangming said: "Thank you for your kind words, master. After these few days, I wonder if the master still wants to arrest us?"

Monk Xuanji shook his head, and said: "The poor monk has been a monk since he was a child, and he studies martial arts every day. It is a bit wasteful to study Zen, so he was deceived by evil spirits and heretics. This time, I thought that I went to Yuntai Mountain to eliminate demons and defend the way. , I never imagined that I almost became a minion for a tiger. From the perspective of the poor monk, I am afraid that the leaders and gang leaders of the righteous way of the world do not know much about the grievances and entanglements between the Demon Cult and the major sects of the rivers and lakes. The disputes between the previous years and the Demon Sect have been passed down from generation to generation, and this has made the two sides increasingly bitter. The poor monk must investigate this matter clearly and give an explanation to the leaders of the various sects and the Demon Sect."

When Monk Xuanji said this, he glanced at Li Qiufeng, and then said: "The poor monk originally thought that Hero Li was the preacher of the Devil's Cult, and was surprised by Hero Li's martial arts and resourcefulness. Fortunately, Hero Li has nothing to do with the Devil's Sect, and the righteous way of the world has finally escaped." One catastrophe. However, the person who caused the disturbance in Wuji Temple back then should be inextricably related to the Demon Cult. This person is extremely skilled in martial arts and resourceful. If he makes a comeback, he may cause some bloodshed The rainy wind. The poor monk made a great wish to resolve the grievances between the devil's religion and the righteous way of the world, and perhaps save many lives."

Li Qiufeng listened to Monk Xuanji's solemn words, admired him deeply, and said: "Master is really a bodhisattva, I admire you. If there is something useful for Li in the future, the commander-in-chief just speak up. Even if Li is at the end of the world, as long as you listen After being greeted by the master, he will come to help immediately."

Monk Xuanji thanked him, and said, "It's not for nothing that we had this big dream. Mr. Changsun and Mr. Situ let go of their obsessions, and the poor monk came to a full realization. No matter what lured us into the maze No matter what people's purpose is, it's not all a bad thing for the few of us."

Situ Qiao and Changsun Guangming nodded again and again, and Li Qiufeng was also thoughtful.Situ Qiao took out an oiled paper bag from his arms, walked quickly to the stove, and stuffed the oiled paper bag into the stove.The firewood in the stove pit was about to burn out. After putting the oil paper bag in, there was only a "huh" sound, and the flame immediately rose up, making a "squeaky" sound.

Situ Qiao stood up straight, clapped his hands together, and said, "Regardless of whether what we saw in the dream is true or not, this map is of no use to me. It's better to burn it with a fire, so as not to spread the poison." endless."

Seeing Situ Qiao's determination, Changsun Guangming admired him, turned around and walked out.After a while, he was seen coming back with a scroll and a thin booklet, and threw the scroll and booklet into the flames under the stove.Moments later, the scrolls and booklets were engulfed in flames.

Li Qiufeng and others knew that what Changsun Guangming threw into the pit was the Zhuge formation map and the detailed map of Wu Zetian's tomb.Whether these things are true or not is no longer important to everyone.The four looked at the formation map and the brochure, which were burned to ashes in a blink of an eye. They looked at each other and laughed loudly at the same time.

After the flame in the stove pit was extinguished, Situ Qiao picked up a wooden stick beside the stove and stirred the paper ash in the stove into powder.The four of them had nothing to worry about at this time, and walked out of the room quickly.

At this time, although the fire in the side hall still had some faint flames, it was just about to burn out.A cold wind suddenly picked up outside the hall, blowing the withered grass and withered trees around, making a whimpering sound.

Li Qiufeng walked to Lao Yan's side, bent down and untied his acupoints.Lao Yan crawled back to the side of the fire and looked at the crowd in horror.

Li Qiufeng said: "Mr. Yan, we don't know where we offended you, causing you to set up a maze here and trap us here. But since the person who died in the yard was a Japanese thief, if you want to come to Mr. Yan and The pirates are not one party. We have finished our business here, and we don’t want to embarrass you, so you can go now.”

Lao Yan looked at Li Qiufeng, as if he couldn't believe his ears.Situ Qiao said from the side: "Old guy, don't look at us like a ghost. Just let you go, or we will change our mind and maybe kill you with one knife."

Lao Yan's eyes moved from Li Qiufeng's face to Situ Qiao, then to Changsun Guangming, and finally fell on Monk Xuanji's face.Everyone saw Lao Yan's frightened face at first, but the frightened gradually disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face.When his eyes fell on Monk Xuanji's face, there was no trace of panic in his expression.

When Li Qiufeng and the others saw Lao Yan's appearance, they were a little surprised and uncertain.

I only heard Lao Yan chuckle and said: "It seems that everyone has finally let go of their delusions, congratulations, congratulations!"

Before he finished speaking, he could only hear clapping from outside the hall.Then only the sound of footsteps was heard, but it was Chief Du and five or six villagers from Taniguchi Village who came in.These people had smiles on their faces, without the slightest panic and panic just now.

Li Qiufeng and others were even more surprised when they saw the appearance of Lao Yan, Du Lichang and others.Changsun Guangming and Su Yan stretched out their hands to hold the hilt of the sword, and Situ Qiao quietly put the steel grip on his right hand.

Lao Yan waved his hands at Li Qiufeng and the others, and said, "You don't need to panic. We're not trying to harm you, but we just want to test what you want to do. The situation is clear now. We are friends rather than enemies, so there is no need to draw swords. "

Situ Qiao said loudly, "Old...Old Yan, what do you mean?"

Lao Yan took a look at Situ Qiao and said with a smile, "To be honest, we are all grave guards in Tanikou Village."

Li Qiufeng and the others were startled, not knowing what Lao Yan meant.Su Yan couldn't help asking: "There is no tomb here, why are you guarding the tomb?"

Old Yan didn't answer Su Yan, but turned to Erhu and said, "Go and bring some firewood, otherwise it will be freezing cold, we rough men can survive it, but Miss Su has delicate skin and tender flesh, and the cold air invades, so I have to It’s impossible to get seriously ill.”

Erhu agreed, and immediately led two villagers out.Old Yan then turned his head and said to Su Yan: "Miss Su, you and Mr. Changsun have been here several times before, but every time you just dig around Taniguchi Village, you don't suspect that the villagers of Taniguchi Village have other identities."

When Lao Yan said this, he paused for a while, and then continued: "Before Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was enthroned and sat in the palace, he used to be the Luzhou Biejia. When he was doing the Luzhou Biejia, he sent people to Gukou Village Zuo Jin built the Skeleton King Temple, collected the remains scattered throughout the Changping Ancient Battlefield, and buried them in the wasteland behind the Skeleton King Temple. He expended all this effort because someone gave him a formation map..."

Before Lao Yan finished speaking, Situ Qiao couldn't help but said aside: "So, what we saw in the dream is real?"

Old Yan chuckled, and said, "Mr. Situ is proficient in the five elements. Naturally, you can't hide these little tricks. To be honest, we discovered that Mr. Situ was setting up stone formations in Chitou Temple a few days ago. The situation was a bit wrong. Therefore, when Mr. Situ was out, we sneaked into the Chitou Temple and changed the stone formation slightly. In addition, we found the fire folders and candles that Mr. Situ hid under the blue bricks on the ground, and put the funeral Then, Mr. Li, Mr. Changsun, and Miss Su secretly entered the Chitou Temple, and Mr. Situ led Master Xuanji into the stone formation. When you light candles and other igniters, you will be in mourning The powder came out. A few of you accidentally inhaled the mourning powder, and then fell into a deep sleep. We wanted to arrest you and interrogate your intentions here. However, before we could make a move, another strange person suddenly came This person is sinister and vicious, and even wants to kill several people. It's just that he is afraid of several martial arts masters, and he approaches you several times, but he is worried that you will counterattack, so he can only hide. This person is proficient in the evil art of soul shifting. However, for some unknown reason, he suddenly vomited blood and died in the courtyard. Presumably it was when he was performing the technique, he was counterattacked by a powerful opponent, which made his It can be said that it is self-inflicted when the evil magic attacks itself."

When Lao Yan said this, he looked at Li Qiufeng and said, "This Mr. Li has a very murderous aura. If my guess is correct, this weird person died at your hands, right?"

Li Qiufeng has been guessing Lao Yan's intentions, listening to him questioning himself, for fear that he will show his flaws in front of him.So he just "hummed" and didn't answer.

Lao Yan seemed to know what Li Qiufeng was thinking, but he didn't ask any further questions.He pondered for a while, and then said: "The Shenshen powder in our hands comes from thousands of miles overseas. If people inhale the powder, they will fall into a deep sleep, and they will have hallucinations during sleep. People will see all kinds of phantoms, and they can talk to each other. Just now, when you were sleeping, we talked about some weird things around you, so as to find out what your intentions are when you come here. Later, we found out These few are not evil thieves, but each of them has some obsessions, but fortunately, in the end, you all fully realized and resolved the resentment in your heart, and finally this trip was not in vain."
