When I was in Qin Dynasty, I really didn't want to make progress

"Why do you think so?" Gai Nie asked back.

"The car is a bit bumpy." Wei Zhuang said.

"So it affected your sleep?" Gai Nie said lightly. The way of communication between fellow disciples was so strange.

"good."

"Then I'll pay attention."

As the fellow disciples were chatting in a strange way, Weijiazhuang had already appeared in front of them.

"It's really different." Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang walked into Weijiazhuang. It was already dusk. The manor, which should have been bustling with people, was now completely silent. The sun had not completely set, but it was eerie and strange everywhere.

Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, who were both skilled and courageous, went straight into Weijia Village, but they were more cautious. As expected, as soon as they entered Weijia Village, they were besieged by villagers, who used swords, spears, halberds, longbows, and kerosene. They used every possible means.

But that’s all.

Amidst the flash of swords and the shadow of knives, all the villagers were subdued. Fortunately, Zongheng and the other two came only for the assessment, not to kill. After subduing all the villagers, they also saw the content of their assessment.

Wei Yong was the Minister of Works of Wei.

The appearance of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang was a complete surprise for Wei Yong. Young people are mostly passionate, impulsive and naive, and are most likely to sacrifice their lives for what they believe is justice.

So in Wei Sikong's view, the young man who upholds "justice" has arrived.

So in front of the two righteous young heroes, Wei Yong portrayed himself as the backbone of the Wei State and the pillar of the kingdom, and the two also had a brief fight with Hei Bai Xuan Jian.

In order to enable Wei to have the power to fight against Qin and to prevent Luo Wang's plan from succeeding, the two young men Zong and Heng decided to protect Wei Yong, not because of Wei Yong, but purely because of the villagers of Weijia Village and the people of Wei State.

After some planning, Gai Nie, Wei Zhuang and Wei Yong decided to lure the snake out of its hole and then wait for the oriole to come back.

Wei Si impersonates Wei Yong, and then Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang escort the fake Wei Yong away, in order to lure out Black and White Xuan Jian and turn it into a cicada caught by the yellow bird.

When Guiguzi and Zongheng arrived at Weijiazhuang, Yan Lingji was practicing her skills enthusiastically by the creek outside Xiliu Village. The martial arts recorded in the Nine Yin Scriptures were profound and extensive. Now she was almost sure that Yang Chong had not lied to her. If she could master the martial arts, she could go anywhere in the world.

As for Yang Chong's true identity, Yan Lingji no longer cared. Anyway, she had already obtained the information she wanted, and there was also the unexpected surprise of the Nine Yin Scriptures, an encyclopedia of martial arts. More importantly, she most likely would not have to repay the favor. This feeling of getting something for nothing, getting everything without paying anything, was really great.

"I am now debt-free." After practicing for a long time, Yan Lingji should have been very tired, but she felt relaxed all over. She sniffed the cool breeze coming from the river and felt comfortable all over. However, in this relaxation, there was a sadness that was difficult to conceal.

"I'm not sick. It's so dangerous there, why should I go to help you? It's your own choice. Even if you die, it's your own choice. I don't care. Besides, it's very dangerous there for me. I'm not that stupid. The happiest thing in the world is that the creditor is dead and you don't have to pay the debt. You'd better die. When you die, I will be completely free. Well, of course I will practice the martial arts you left behind and won't waste your kindness." Yan Lingji muttered to herself, not knowing who she was talking to. Maybe she was just making excuses for herself.

But is this forced excuse really reliable? If you have never hesitated, why do you have to find excuses for your behavior?

Yan Lingji looked at the small river in the distance. Stars twinkled in the flowing water. It seemed that nothing had changed, but was there really no change?

Yan Lingji's eyes, which were swimming along with the flow of the river, gradually became firm: "I don't want this freedom anymore, but you must not die."

Yan Lingji stood up, buried the bamboo slips again, and then disappeared under the willow tree.

If that freedom is unintentional freedom, then Yan Lingji would rather not have it.

……

The summer morning came very early. Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang stood on the street of Weijia Village, enjoying the rare coolness.

"Wei Yong's justice is really a ridiculous thing." Wei Zhuang, standing with a sword in his arms, looked at the empty street and said with a bit of sarcasm.

"Xiao Zhuang, do you think it's ridiculous for us to stay and protect Wei Yong?" Gai Nie asked.

"I don't care about justice. What I'm interested in is that black sword." Wei Zhuang said coldly. He didn't care whether Wei Yong was good or bad.

While the two were talking, four carriages went in four directions. When the four carriages gradually went away, an ordinary carriage drove out from a corner and came in front of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.

Chapter 44: Choice and Decision? I Want Both

In the small courtyard belonging to the mother and daughter of the Wei family, Yang Chong got up very early today. He did not indulge in the gentle arms of his wife. He had breakfast early and came to the courtyard. He had already seen a carriage driving quickly out of the village.

There are a bunch of fake Wei Yongs in there.

This means that the opportunity that Yang Chong had been waiting for for finally appeared.

"What are you looking at, my husband?" Jingwei, with her long hair tied up, walked to Yang Chong. Her voice was still cold, but also a little tender. She could feel a lot of things, but she just didn't care that much.

"I see an opportunity." Yang Chong turned around and put his arms around Jingwei's slender and extremely flexible waist.

The Jingwei in front of him was beautiful to Yang Chong. After this period of in-depth communication, Yang Chong was certain that Luowang had plans against him, but they would never attack him before they achieved their goal.

Therefore, the Jingwei in front of him is safe for Yang Chong, and the current Jingwei is just Wei Weishang.

"Opportunity?" Jingwei was a little surprised. Yang Chong seemed a little different today. Yang Chong looked exceptionally calm today, but in this calmness, Jingwei saw something familiar to him.

Jingwei himself would also be in this state of calm before assassinating his target, accumulating strength in the calm, just waiting to explode in an instant.

"An opportunity that allows us to keep going." Yang Chong said.

Jingwei is indeed dangerous, but what if Yang Chong is stronger?

"My husband, are you talking about the two people who entered the manor yesterday?" Jingwei thought for a while and could only think of this possibility. Maybe Yang Chong saw hope of survival in those two people.

"It can be said that, my lady, do you have anything you like?" Yang Chong changed the subject.

Now everything is proceeding along the trajectory in Yang Chong’s memory, and the gambling table is already in front of him.

"Like?" Jingwei was stunned. She had never thought about this question before. There was nothing she hated, let alone anything she liked. Everything she did was just to follow orders.

"Don't you like me, my lady?" Looking at Jingwei who didn't know how to answer for a moment, Yang Chong joked.

Jingwei was in a trance. Her natural skills were all about killing, so she could not keep up with Yang Chong's thinking. However, disguise was also a killer skill, so after a moment of trance, she showed a trace of shyness and nodded imperceptibly.

While Yang Chong was teasing his wife, the roads connecting Weijiazhuang to the outside world were filled with destroyed carriages and trails of blood.

However, these were just auxiliary carriages. The real carriage had already appeared on another path. The real Wei Yong was escorted here by Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, and he never escaped from Weijiazhuang.

"Wei Si, is there anything unusual?" Wei Yong felt relieved when he saw that the carriage was intact.

"I wonder if I am abnormal?" The driver named Wei Si slowly raised his head, revealing a scarred face under his bamboo hat.

Black and white Xuanjian.

"Very clever. When the enemy is weak, make him strong; when the enemy is strong, make him weak. Is this your Guiguzi's strategy of war?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian sat in the car calmly and looked at Gai Nie, Wei Zhuang and others, like a cat-playing teacher.

"If you don't use yourself as bait, how can you lure the snake out of its hole? This is our Guigu's art of war." Wei Zhuang said coldly. He couldn't stand the arrogance of Hei Bai Xuan Jian.

"Lure the snake out of its hole? What if a giant python is lured out? Be careful or you may lose the bait and fall into the trap." Hei Bai Xuan Jian jumped off the boulder and approached the carriage.

"The oriole is behind." Gai Nie stepped forward.

"Yellow Bird?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian was slightly stunned, as if he had thought of a possibility, and looked suddenly at Wei Yong.

Sure enough, in the sight of Hei Bai Xuan Jian, Wei Yong took off the hat on his head. The clothes were Wei Yong's clothes, but the person was not Wei Yong's.

Wei Yong was actually Wei Si in disguise.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian's face changed. He was not afraid of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, the two hidden tricks. He was afraid that when he was restrained by the two, the real Wei Yong would escape. He absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen.

Thinking of that possibility, Hei Bai Xuan Jian couldn't help but tighten the black sword in his hand.

As the grass shook, more than a dozen villagers holding swords rushed out and directly surrounded Hei Bai Xuan Jian.

"Is this your web? That's all. I don't have time to play with you now." As Hei Bai Xuan Jian swung his sword, streams of black sword energy poured in, spreading along special 'strokes' in the space. The ignorant and confident villagers suddenly strangled their own necks, causing cracks there.

"Stop." Seeing this, Gai Nie's face changed and he attacked Hei Bai Xuan Jian directly.

Seeing that his senior brother had already taken action, Wei Zhuang did not hesitate at all and swung his sword forward directly, vertically and horizontally, with the two swords intersecting, there was no chance of survival.

But Black and White Xuan Jian, who is in his prime, is no ordinary master. Even if he only has the black sword in his hand, his strength is terrifying. He can handle the two swords with ease. With a continuous turn of flying swords, Black and White Xuan Jian has rushed out from the sword net of the two swords.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian, who was standing with a sword in hand, looked at the two people in front of him and said coldly: "Leave here, this is my last warning."

The disciples of Guiguzi are not just famous for nothing. Although Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang are still young, they have excellent swordsmanship. When they attack together, they can exert several times the combat power. Even the powerful Black and White Xuan Jian does not want to create trouble with them.

What's more, behind Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang is Guiguzi, the Guiguzi who is vaguely known as the best swordsman in the world. Hei Bai Xuan Jian may not be afraid of Guiguzi's inheritance, but he cannot ignore the sword master.

"We want the truth." Gai Nie said.

"The truth?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian looked at the Guigu disciple in front of him and did not comment on the so-called truth.

"The story of Hei Bai Xuan Jian started about ten years ago, but the most important story happened in Daliang City. It's about a killer and a woman." Wei Zhuang said.

"Shut up, you are not worthy to mention her." Hei Bai Xuan Jian said coldly. Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's words touched upon the past that he was most reluctant to face.

When Hei Bai Xuan Jian was carrying out the mission of Luowang, he was seriously injured due to carelessness, but fortunately he was rescued by Wei Yong's daughter Wei Xianxian, a gentle woman who warmed the cold sword of Hei Bai Xuan Jian with her feminine tenderness.

Later, Wei Yong discovered their affair. Wei Yong used his daughter Wei Xianxian as a condition to let Hei Bai Xuan Jian eliminate his political enemies for him. At that time, Hei Bai Xuan Jian was happy because he finally found the value of his killing.

With hope for the future, Hei Bai Xuan Jian helped Wei Yong eliminate his political enemies and even assassinated a great general of Wei who was almost impossible to assassinate. But just when he thought that as long as he helped Wei Yong achieve his goal, he could live together with Wei Xianxian, his beloved woman, everything changed.

Wei Yong actually wanted to cross the river and then destroy the bridge.

If Wei Xianxian hadn't rescued him, he would have died, but the price was Wei Xianxian's life. From then on, he lost the only person he wanted to protect.

Chapter 45 I am Yang Chong, a man who gambles his life

Hei Bai Xuan Jian, who struggled out of his memory, looked coldly at Zong Heng and the other man, then turned and left. He had no interest in competing with Zong Heng and the other man. All he wanted was revenge.

Seeing Hei Bai Xuan Jian leaving, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang were about to chase him, but suddenly they felt a pain in their arms. Upon closer inspection, they found that their clothes had torn for some reason and blood was oozing out.

"There is another sword?" Gai Nie's body collapsed. As he concentrated, he vaguely saw through the refracted sunlight that a series of silk threads had enveloped them at some point.

"Heartless, Black Widow?" The faintly reflected light in his sight reminded Wei Zhuang of a piece of information he had seen before.

She was once an embroiderer. Her martial arts skills might not be very high, but she was very strange. The sword formation she wove with ruthless silk was strange and unpredictable, enough to defeat the strong with the weak. There were countless masters who were stronger than her but died in her hands, so she got her current name: Black Widow.

"What a knowledge! You are worthy of being the descendant of Guiguzi. It's a pity that it's useless. Lord Xuan Jian won't let you leave here, so you can only stay here." The Black Widow, with her face half covered by a mask, walked out from the cover of the grass and trees.

"You overestimate yourself." Wei Zhuang said coldly. He couldn't stand seeing anyone other than his senior brother speaking in a pretentious manner in front of him.

"Really?" The Black Widow stretched out her ten fingers and flicked them in the air, vibrating the ruthless silk to shrink the sword formation, leaving bloody marks on Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's bodies.

"Xiao Zhuang, pay attention." Facing the closing sword formation, Gai Nie let go of the long sword in his hand and pressed his ten fingers towards the surrounding ruthless threads that were not closed. His fingers were instantly cut by the thin and sharp ruthless threads, and blood flowed out. Under Gai Nie's urging, it flowed along the invisible ruthless threads, and in a blink of an eye, the hidden and invisible sword formation was dyed blood red.

Wei Zhuang, who was both an opponent and a confidant of the brothers, had already turned his wrist and held the sword in front of him at the moment when Gai Nie's blood was exposed.

"Crossing in all directions." Wei Zhuang gathered all his strength and slashed out with his sword. The overbearing and unstoppable demon sword, Shark Tooth, burst out with sword energy, as if to cut through the space. Wherever it passed, all the ruthless threads were broken. The so-called sword formation was vulnerable to a single blow.

Wei Zhuang's sword cut across the eight directions. Even though he had destroyed the Black Widow's sword formation, its power was still undiminished. Wherever the sword energy passed, grass was cut and trees were broken. Within a radius of dozens of meters, everything was split in two, like a torn silk painting.

Even though the Black Widow felt the horror of Wei Zhuang's sword for a moment, she still couldn't dodge it completely. A stream of sword energy brushed past her and directly injured her severely. She could only flee in embarrassment after leaving a pool of blood on the ground.

Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, who broke the sword formation, didn't care about the life or death of the Black Widow. The most important thing for them at the moment was to stop Hei Bai Xuan Jian from continuing to kill indiscriminately in Weijia Village.

"Maybe we shouldn't save Wei Yong. People like him are not worth saving." Gai Nie said to Wei Zhuang while running.

"If justice prevails, he will be brought to justice. He killed his colleagues and his own daughter for his own selfish reasons. His crimes are unforgivable."

"Brother, shallow justice will only blind your eyes. Right now, the Qin cavalry is as ferocious as a tiger, and the Wei State is an important barrier preventing the Qin army from entering the Central Plains. This barrier is composed of the brave Wei Wuzu, and their leader is Wei Yong. Wei Yong occupies a pivotal position among the seven countries. If he dies, the barrier of the six countries will collapse, which will be a greater disaster." Wei Zhuang retorted coldly.

"For a father who has the heart to kill his own daughter, it will only take a day for him to abandon the people he is supposed to protect." Gai Nie said, for a selfish person, who can guarantee that he has a heart to protect the people? He is so cruel to his own daughter, how can we expect him to protect the people?

"It seems that this is the real test question from Master."

As the brothers talked, they quickly closed the distance between them and Weijia Village, and soon, Weijia Village appeared in their sight.

Looking at Weijiazhuang at the foot of the mountain, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang gave up the debate. At this time, Weijiazhuang was already engulfed in flames.

As if he was worried about complications, Hei Bai Xuan Jian no longer continued to create fear in Weijiazhuang during the killing like before, wanting to make Weijiazhuang go crazy in fear and go towards destruction. Now he rushed into Weijiazhuang and killed everyone he saw.

The game he had given to the people of Weijiazhuang was over. He wanted to completely destroy Wei Yong and everything about Wei Yong.

Wei Yong looked palely at the black and white Xuan Jian who were harvesting his own people. At this moment, he felt a sense of empathy for his former colleagues. He understood their fear before death.

After struggling to push two clansmen forward to block the black and white sword, Wei Yong turned and ran towards the house where the Wei mother and daughter were.

He has reached a deal with Yanri, but Yanri has not appeared until now. So in the entire Weijia Village, no one can protect him except the Luowang killer who has transformed into the mother and daughter of the Wei family.

At the moment of life and death, Wei Yong, who was determined to grab any glimmer of hope, burst out with a speed that was not appropriate for his age, and ran until the yard appeared in front of him.

At this time, Hei Bai Xuan Jian had already caught up, and Zong Heng and the other two were not far away.

In front of the ordinary house of the Wei mother and daughter, Bai Hei Xuan Jian, Zong Heng and their target were in a standoff.

For a moment, none of the three parties dared to move. Hei Bai Xuan Jian was worried that he would be taken advantage of by Zong Heng and the others when he tried to kill Wei Yong. Zong Heng and the others focused all their energy on Hei Bai Xuan Jian, hoping to rescue him as soon as possible. As for Wei Yong, it was purely out of fear.

Just as the three parties were confronting each other, the tightly closed courtyard door opened, a foot stepped over the threshold, and then a young man appeared in front of everyone.

"Yellow Bird, if you don't..." Wei Yong's face changed slightly when he saw Yang Chong. The black and white Xuan Jian right in front of him made him ignore the consequences and he was about to directly reveal the identities of Huang Bird, Jingwei and others.

But he could only say half of his words, because Yang Chong took a step forward and grabbed Wei Yong's throat under the gaze of Hei Bai Xuan Jian.

"It's you?" Hei Bai Xuan Jian looked at Yang Chong in surprise.

In the entire Weijiazhuang, apart from Wei Yong, the person who left the deepest impression on Heibai Xuanjian was Yang Chong. It was not because of how strong Yang Chong was, but because he saw a familiar shadow in Yang Chong.

"Not strong, but fearless." Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang looked at each other and had a preliminary assessment of Yang Chong's strength. They also had their own answers as to how Yang Chong could take down Wei Yong so calmly while they were confronting the black and white Xuan Jian's aura.
