He knew best the reasons behind the death of Qiao Feng's biological parents.
After all, he is the "leader".
but......
Xuanci chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice, pondering in his heart:
Then how did Qiao Feng find out about the situation?
Could it be that he already knows the truth of the matter, and the whole story?
When Qiao Feng visited Shaolin that day, it didn't seem like he had any attitude towards him, so he probably didn't know about it.
But his goal was so clear to cause trouble to the Gusu Murong family, and he fought such a bloody battle. If he said he didn't know, it would be difficult to explain.
and......
The old donor Murong has been dead for many years. If Qiao Feng wants to take revenge, the first person he should look for is me, the leader.
But not only did he not do that, he went to seek revenge on a dead man.
Either Qiao Feng believed that a son should pay his father's debts; or...
It means Murong Bo is not dead!
Abbot Xuanci opened his eyes, his expression solemn and serious.
Thinking of this, many things that seemed subtle in the past immediately connected together.
For example, after the incident at Yanmen Pass, he realized something was wrong and copied the inscription on the stele to verify it. He then realized that he had killed a good man by mistake. Afterwards, he immediately wanted to find Murong Bo to ask him clearly, but at that time, he could no longer find any trace of him. After a little delay, he heard the news of his death.
Although Xuan Ci felt it was a little strange at the time, he just thought that the other party was just like him, who had believed the wrong news and accidentally made a big mistake.
But now that I think about it, there is something really weird about it.
Could it be...
Faked his own death to escape!?
"Amitabha......"
Xuan Ci lowered his head slightly, feeling complicated.
Suzhou, a rural farmhouse.
Qiao Feng sat cross-legged, practicing martial arts and recuperating, and his injuries gradually healed by 80 to 90 percent.
Logically speaking, given his serious injuries at the time, it would take at least two or three months for him to recover.
But because he took the [Nine-Turn Bear Snake Pill], he recovered extremely quickly. Even though the injuries were not entirely external, they were of great benefit to his body.
Qiao Feng felt somewhat relieved, thinking that fortunately, when he was in Chongshan, the Lingjiu messenger gave him two [Nine-transformation Bear Snake Pills]. He gave one to Master Xuanku to save his life, and the remaining one was just right for him to use to heal his wounds.
If not, I'm afraid it would be really dangerous...
"I owe Mr. Fang another life."
Qiao Feng sighed inwardly, thinking that this favor was becoming heavier and heavier, and he didn't know if he would ever have the chance to repay it.
He stood up and went out, looking at the scenery of the fields in the distance. Thinking of the fight with Murong Fu and his four major ministers half a month ago, he couldn't help but frown and remained silent.
From Qiao Feng's perspective, although those people's martial arts skills were not bad and each of them was a master, especially [Nan Murong], who was indeed very powerful, he thought that with his own strength, he could still defeat them.
Unexpectedly, a masked man in gray suddenly appeared, ready to launch a sneak attack. In his haste, he was inevitably caught in the trap. Although he was careful and hit the man with a backhand, he was also injured in the vital parts.
He fought desperately to kill two of them and seriously injured two others. Murong Fu and the man in gray were left helpless.
If no one rescued him, he would have died in Yanziwu.
Qiao Feng's eyes flashed, and he thought to himself:
The person who launched the sneak attack must be Murong Bo.
His martial arts were so advanced that when the fight became dangerous, he could not help but display Murong's unique martial art [Dou Zhuan Xing Yi], which undoubtedly confirmed this.
And the mysterious man who saved his life was probably his biological father. He was very similar to the man in black he saw at his home in Chongshan that day, both in terms of body shape and martial arts.
There is absolutely no possibility of admitting mistakes.
Qiao Feng had a complicated expression, a mixture of sadness and joy.
Although his revenge was rather reckless, the effect was excellent. Not only did he force Murong Bo to show up, he also forced his biological father out.
Even though revenge has failed temporarily, it is nothing. Knowing that the person still exists in the world, I will hunt him down to the end even if he is at the ends of the earth!
And my father...
Qiao Feng had a silent expression. He was seriously injured at that time and was also drunk, so his consciousness was somewhat hazy.
After rescuing him, the other party settled him in a farmhouse in the village and left.
He hasn't appeared in the past half month.
Qiao Feng glanced around with his fierce eyes, left some silver for the farmer, and then used his lightness skills to leave. When he reached a secluded place, he called out loudly, "Father! I want to see you! Can you please show yourself?"
After calling out three times and standing there for a long time, there was a sudden sound of wind. Qiao Feng turned around abruptly and saw a burly masked man in black coming at him in an instant, slashing at him with a palm!
Qiao Feng instantly recognized that the man was the mysterious man he had seen in Songshan, and the benefactor who saved him from escaping from Yanziwu half a month ago. However, the palm wind was so strong and fast, as if it was striking at his vitals without holding back. If he did not resist, the injury that had just healed would be seriously injured again, so he subconsciously wanted to use his internal energy to return the palm.
But then I thought, since he is my biological father, how could he really hurt me? Even if he is not my father, he saved Qiao's life before, so it is nothing to hit him now.
Thinking of this, he restrained himself from counterattacking and stood there motionless.
"Ok?"
Xiao Yuanshan's masked face paled slightly. He swung his hand back, withdrawing his attack. Standing two feet away from Qiao Feng, he shouted, "Why didn't you dodge?"
Qiao Feng looked at Xiao Yuanshan with burning eyes and said with a double meaning, "Qiao Feng's life was given by you. If you want to take it back, it's up to you to decide!"
Xiao Yuanshan was silent for a moment, then reached out to remove the black cloth covering his face, revealing a square face that looked heroic, yet slightly old and gloomy.
If you ignore the grey hair, long beard and facial expression, his appearance is exactly the same as Qiao Feng's!
Even though Qiao Feng had been somewhat certain about it, he still couldn't help but be shocked when he saw such a similar face.
He prostrated himself on the ground and said, "My son greets his father!"
A rare smile appeared on Xiao Yuanshan's gloomy and stiff face. He laughed heartily and said, "Good! Good! Good!"
He stepped forward and pulled Qiao Feng to his feet, sighing, "My son is such a hero, he's incredible!"
As he spoke, his expression became serious and he asked, "Son, how did you know I was your father? Did anyone tell you anything?!"
His eyes were like cold lightning, flashing with brilliance.
He had never thought that he would recognize his son so soon, but for some reason, his son seemed to know something.
Thinking of some speculations, Xiao Yuanshan felt a surge of hatred in his heart.
Qiao Feng looked at Xiao Yuanshan with a complicated expression. He asked, "Father, back at the foot of Mount Song, at my parents'...adoptive parents' home, a mysterious person attempted to kill them. But...Father?"
When speaking of the latter part, even a man of heroic character like Qiao Feng could not help but have a bit of tremor in his voice.
If possible, he really didn't want things to be like this.
I just hope it's a misunderstanding and doesn't make him feel uneasy.
Xiao Yuanshan narrowed his eyes slightly, but said bluntly: "Yes! It's me!"
"If those people outside hadn't been meddling, we would have killed them long ago! Son, where did you hide them back there?"
Qiao Feng felt a pang in his heart, but he wouldn't tell him. Instead, he asked, "Father, why did you kill them? They are my adoptive parents, and they have done me a great service in raising me..."
Without his parents raising him, how could Qiao Feng be what he is today? Why would his biological father want to kill them?
Qiao Feng found it difficult to understand and felt very upset.
Xiao Yuanshan sneered, "There aren't any good people among the people of the Southern Song Dynasty. They killed my wife and took my son without any reason. They even wanted my son to recognize other people as his parents. The Qiao Sanhuai couple knew you weren't their biological child, but they never told you the truth. Haha, they're so kind! You're enjoying the joy of family life. That should have been mine! They deserve to be killed! They deserve to be killed!"
When he said the latter part, his expression became slightly ferocious!
Qiao Feng was stunned and speechless. Seeing Xiao Yuanshan like this, he felt it was both absurd and sad.
It is absurd that one's own father was killed so brutally and with such indiscriminate hatred. It is also sad because of the tragedy that happened back then. If it weren't for the incident at Yanmen Pass, nothing would have happened like this.
He took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "Father, those who killed my mother deserve to die! They deserve to die! But what crime have my adoptive parents committed? Please retract this thought!"
Xiao Yuanshan's expression froze slightly, as if he were thinking about something. Gradually, his face became expressionless. He stared at Qiao Feng and asked, "I understand now. You didn't come here to acknowledge me as your father. You're complaining about me, right?"
"That palm strike at the foot of Mount Song that day, you were truly formidable! You even injured your father internally! Humph! You defend those Southern Song people so much, but don't you know how cunning they are?
Didn't the incident at the Wuxi Xingzilin Temple wake you up? Since you joined the Beggars' Sect, you've done so many great things for them!
The Beggars' Sect can be at its peak today because of you!
Once they learned you were a Khitan, all their past achievements were forsaken, and they immediately turned against you. Everyone in the Central Plains martial arts world also called for your death! They wished they could destroy you to vent their hatred!
Xiao Yuanshan shouted in a deep voice, feeling very disappointed, "Wake up! Many of those so-called famous elders know your life story behind the scenes, but none of them want to tell you the truth. They are hiding it from you and want to train you like their dog, pointing fingers at you and picking on you. If anything is exposed, they want to kill you and be done with it!
At this point, isn't it possible for you to know what's good and what's bad?!"
Qiao Feng was silent for a moment, then spoke: "Not everyone in the Beggars' Sect has turned against us, but Quan Guanqing and...
Many people did not change their attitudes, and Gang Leader Hong even guaranteed for the boy, but the boy was a Khitan after all, and it was not easy for him to go back, so he declined.
As for those people in the underworld, there are many who believe everything they hear, and there are also some fools."
After hearing this, Xiao Yuanshan was furious: "I think you are the one who is confused! What kind of magic potion did those Southern Song people feed you that made you so careless about the revenge for your mother's murder!"
Qiao Feng said seriously, "The hatred for my mother's murder is irreconcilable! I must seek justice from each of them one by one!"
Xiao Yuanshan sneered, "Sounds good, but look at what you've done. If it weren't for me taking action half a month ago, you would have been killed on the spot. How can you even talk about revenge? Many of those who killed your mother at Yanmen Pass are still alive and well. Hehe, they wish you would die sooner. After you're dead, there will be no evidence of your crime, so they can completely cover up the bloody incident and continue to be their veterans in the martial arts world, so respected and virtuous!"
Upon hearing this, Qiao Feng looked at Xiao Yuanshan in surprise.
I thought to myself that my father said this, as if he didn't know about Murong Bo?
Could it be that the source has not been traced?
Or maybe...
Qiao Feng's eyes flickered slightly, and he shook his head secretly. After pondering for a while, he looked at Xiao Yuanshan seriously and said in a deep voice, "My son's trip was indeed a bit reckless, but father, don't you know that the incident at Yanmen Pass was all instigated by Gusu Murong Bo..."
The whole story will be explained in the future.
Xiao Yuanshan's face changed slightly, and his expression became gloomy.
There is violence and hatred in his eyes!
He had been secretly investigating for the past few decades, and had basically confirmed the identities of all the gangsters who had participated in the Yanmen Pass incident. He even knew the so-called "leader" who was at the head of the group. However, he did not know the details of the origin of the incident, nor the identity of the person who spread the false information.
Now, after hearing what Qiao Feng said, he remembered that when he was hiding in Shaolin Temple, he had seen Xuanci vaguely mentioning something to the monks.
He didn't know that the matter involved him at the beginning. Now that he thinks about it, he really missed the opportunity to find out who his real enemy is!
Xiao Yuanshan's heart was filled with hatred, his chest heaving. After a long pause, he said in a hoarse voice, "Since you know the truth and your father's identity, why didn't you tell me directly back in Yanziwu?"
If that were the case, he would definitely not just rescue Qiao Feng, but would also kill Murong and his son!
Qiao Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Murong Bo's martial arts skills are extremely high, and Murong Fu should not be underestimated either. The two of them still have the strength to fight. I am seriously injured and can hardly hold on. Father, although your martial arts skills are high, fighting two alone is truly dangerous and unwise!"
Xiao Yuanshan snorted coldly: "You also know that fighting against a large number of enemies with a small number of people is extremely dangerous?"
I am fighting one against six people, who is the foolish one?
Qiao Feng looked a little embarrassed, and it was hard to explain the true meaning of his action.
Xiao Yuanshan frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked at Qiao Feng and asked, "Son, tell me honestly, who told you all this?"
All those who participated in the incident wanted to keep it secret until their death, and would have preferred to take the truth to their graves. They were very stubborn and would never take the initiative to explain it to his son. They were the only ones who knew the truth. So who told him?
Murong Bo, the mastermind?
Or is it Xuanci, that hypocritical person?
It's impossible!
Qiao Feng remained silent and said nothing.
Xiao Yuanshan's eyes flickered slightly. "Even if you don't tell me, I can guess it. It must be related to those Vulture Emissaries, right? Humph! They are really meddling in other people's business! I will settle accounts with them sooner or later!"
Qiao Feng frowned widely, somewhat annoyed, "Father, please don't have such thoughts! We should avenge our enemies and repay our kindnesses. Why do you have to be so hostile everywhere? Is this what a real man should do?"
Not to mention the great kindness and generosity my child has received from them, even…"
After a pause, Qiao Feng shook his head slightly and did not continue.
In fact, after witnessing the martial arts of the three women that day, he knew that the "Eagle Messenger", "Cloud Pattern Taoist" and "Barefoot Doctor" spread all over the place were probably not that simple.
