not with you

It's already the third day, Fei Fei has been walking aimlessly in the lonely mountain jungle. There are only a few small villages interspersed in this mountain range that stretches for hundreds of miles. The people are sparsely populated, so he has never encountered it. anyone.

It was past noon, and he was reclining under a big tree, as if he was closing his eyes and resting his mind.After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up, and jumped onto the dense treetops lightly.

After a while, three more people came from the woods.One is a handsome and handsome young man in white, and the other is a thick and strong man with Huaiwu. His left foot is broken at the knee and he is leaning on a cane. Even so, his heroic temperament is not diminished in the slightest. The young man in white is a few steps away from him. The one was a man in his thirties, his face was haggard and pale.While the young man in white was talking to the big man, he kept paying attention to this man.

Leaning on crutches, the big man walked side by side with the young man in white, and said slowly: "...The eleven of us who participated in that operation back then were far from the only eleven of us. And the eleven of us were just the survivors in the operation. By."

The youth asked, "So how many people participated?"

The big man sighed: "There are many. Almost all the first-class masters in the arena participated."

The young man was moved and said: "The murderer is really so terrible? But why do many people in the Jianghu seem to not know about it at all? Just like the younger generation, I have never heard of this matter from my teacher in the past seven years. Until now, my uncle It’s only when you’re murdered that you know something vaguely.”

The big man pondered for a moment and said: "Back then, so many first-class masters in the Bai Dao died inexplicably. In order to avoid causing more disturbances in the Jianghu, let the ghosts and monsters of the underworld have an opportunity. We promised Ximen Hero, and all sects will also take advantage of it. They are all cautious in their words and deeds and will not mention it again.”

The young man said: "Then the hero Ximen also participated in that operation?"

The big man said: "Yes. He defended the last pass with Tang Shi, He Tao, Xue Bing, and Ke Zhengyang."

The young man asked, "What do you mean by the last test?"

The big man said: "Back then, the man named Tang Shi said that he had a way to lure out the murderer. So he asked Hero Ximen to come forward and secretly invite the heroes of the world, and organized this operation called 'lore'."

A trace of deep and long-standing fear flashed on the face of the big man, and he slowly continued: "The plan at the time was to lead the man into Jianmen Pass first, and set up seven ambushes inside and outside Jianmen Pass to surround him... "

The big man sighed: "That day, for more than ten miles inside and outside Jianmen Pass, blood flowed like rivers, and the sky was dark. No one survived the first three passes. Qian Zhuzhi, who is known as the Thousand-Handed Arrow, survived the fourth pass. Zhan Qing and your uncle Yang Yi died. I was the only survivor of the fifth pass. Your master Tao Xu and Tan Wentao survived the sixth pass. Only the seventh pass, although there are at least five people, except Xue Bing injured his left rib, Ke Zhengyang lost his eyes, and the rest were uninjured."

The young man listened intently, and said after a while, "So at that time, no one saw the murderer from the beginning to the end?"

The big man said: "I don't know. No one mentioned this matter after the incident. But the murderer died in the seventh pass, and the people guarding the seventh pass should have seen it."

The young man suddenly said: "Is that person really dead? If that person is dead, then who is this person now? If he is not dead..." He suddenly stopped and said, "Senior, did you not even see the dead body?" ever?"

The big man said: "No. Tang Shi was the only one who handled the corpse..."

The big man stopped his mouth suddenly, and shouted in a deep voice: "That's right. The problem is probably Tang Shi. No one knows his origin. He seemed to emerge from the ground suddenly, and then seemed to disappear from this world suddenly. "

The big man looked back at the middle-aged man standing behind him and said, "Do you know Tang Shi?" The man just followed behind silently with his head down at noon, as if he hadn't heard his question.

Looking at him like that, the young man said with resentment: "It's useless to ask. If he is willing to say it, he doesn't have to wait until now."

The big man turned his head and said, "It's really stubborn."

The young man shook his head, smiled wryly and did not answer.The three of them said nothing more and continued to move forward.They didn't stop when they passed the big naked tree.

Behind the tree, Fei Fei fell to the ground lightly like a breeze, and stood motionless as he watched their retreating figures.A gust of wind blew by, and the man walking at the back suddenly stopped slightly, and he turned his head.

Fei Fei stood there in a daze, he didn't believe that anyone in this world could feel his breath, and he didn't avoid it, his eyes met the man directly.

When the middle-aged man saw him, his eyes were filled with sadness and bitter shock.

Fei Fei looked at him, as if he had returned to the garden of He Mansion that day.When his sword was drawn from He Tao's chest, he turned his head, and the man stood there just like now.Fei Fei thought that he would scream in fright, or run away in a hurry, but he didn't react at all, just looked at him with the same eyes as now.

The two just looked at each other.

An inexplicable emotion rose in Fei Fei's heart, as if a little bitter, a little sad.

Fei Fei suddenly withdrew his gaze, because the big man and the young man in front noticed the abnormality of the middle-aged man, and they had already turned their heads, and they were a little at a loss for this handsome boy who suddenly appeared.

The big man said to the man: "Li Ping, do you know him?"

Li Ping hurriedly lowered his head, turned around but did not answer.The big man and the young man looked at each other, and the young man took a step closer, cupped his fist slightly and said, "My servant, Mo Zixuan, may I ask your honorable name?"

Fei Fei glanced at him indifferently, but his eyes only stayed on Li Ping.

Li Ping suddenly turned around and took a few steps back, inadvertently stood in front of Fei Fei and said, "You don't have to ask him anything, he never likes to answer people."

Mo Zixuan made a slight gesture and asked again: "Do you know him?"

Li Ping glanced at Fei Fei lightly, and said with some hesitation: "He is a distant relative of mine, and he lives not far from here."

Mo Zixuan looked the two of them up and down for a while, then frowned and said, "Distant relatives? You actually have relatives here?"

Li Ping gave a soft "um" and said, "Yes. My hometown is in Lijia Village not far from here. However, I haven't seen each other for many years."

Mo Zixuan was asking another question when suddenly Xie Yingxiong said, "Someone is coming here!"

Mo Zixuan turned around and climbed up the big tree, and in a moment he came down and said: "There is a carriage coming, it seems to be going in a hurry."

Xie Yingxiong thought for a while and said, "Don't worry about it, let's go our way."

Li Ping turned his head and said to Fei Fei: "Go back."

Fei Fei was very surprised at his behavior of covering himself up in every possible way, he just said softly: "I don't want to go back."

Li Ping's eyes were very calm, he turned around and walked away on his own, and said softly, "It's up to you."

Mo Zixuan also turned around and caught up with Xie Yingxiong, the two of them were still walking side by side, Li Ping was still walking a few steps behind, and behind him, Fei Fei was slowly following.He looked at Li Ping's back with blurred eyes, and when he looked at him, Fei Fei always had an unusually peaceful and peaceful feeling in his heart.

Mo Zixuan said softly: "Senior, do you think this young man is weird? I didn't feel that there were people around here just now..." He became famous at a young age, and he was always very confident in his skills. , he couldn't tell what it felt like.At a glance, it looks like a noble young man who just got lost in the mountains and is harmless.

Xie Yingxiong's eyes were deep, and he didn't feel it either, but it was the same as Mo Zixuan's feeling. This weak young man didn't make him feel any threat, but his impeccable lightness kung fu without a sound made him feel the same. He felt a little self-defeating, and for a while, he couldn't understand the feeling, so he had to lower his voice, "Things in the Jianghu are unpredictable, let's take one step at a time."

While speaking, I only heard the sound of galloping horses behind me.The four of them stopped unconsciously on the side of the road.
