Big dream 18 years
Chapter 44 Extra Story: Old Enmity
·two·
Jingchai, tattered cloth skirt.
A youthful and beautiful face, with delicate makeup that ordinary people can't detect.
Sun Chengxiu knelt and sat on the streets of the busy city in a cautious manner, claiming that his close relatives could not afford the serious illness, and the medical expenses were difficult to afford. He heard that there were many wealthy households in this city, so he came to become a seller to pass on treasures.
In the past three days, she had already sold many pieces of exquisitely crafted jewelry, and there was only one jade cup carved by a famous artist, which was so expensive that no one was willing to buy it.
When the sun was setting to the west, she put away the jade cup and walked towards the ruined temple on the outskirts of the city where she lived. When she reached a secluded place, she suddenly frowned.Sure enough, someone stopped her loudly from behind: "Girl, show me your jade cup. Others don't know what it is, but I can."
Sun Chengxiu blinked, turned to look back with a naive look full of hope, and saw a short young man wearing a gorgeously decorated long sword. The bridge of his nose seemed to be broken, slightly tilted to the left, making his expression a bit hideous.She immediately understood that there was no mistake, the person who came must be the person she was going to catch on this trip, the villainous flower picker You Jinbao.
Staring at her face, You Jinbao approached, took the jade cup and played with it for a while, chatted with her a few more gossips, mentioned her plight at home, and said sympathetically, "You are such a poor person." As he spoke, he wanted to touch her hand.
Sun Chengxiu hurriedly dodged, a trace of panic appeared in his eyes.You Jinbao suddenly smiled obscenely, not only his nose was crooked, but also his mouth was crooked: "To be honest, your jade cup can't be sold at such a high price, but if you add it, I'll pay three times the price." .” Without waiting for her answer, he stretched out his hand to grab her front.
Sun Chengxiu had expected that he would be like this, took advantage of You Jinbao's mind not on the jade cup, snatched it back, turned around and fled to the ambush place of his fellow Jianghu friends.How could You Jinbao be willing to give up the treasure he had already obtained, and he would not let go of the prey that was about to be obtained, and followed closely behind.
Sun Chengxiu was afraid that You Jinbao might become suspicious, so he didn't run too fast, but You Jinbao chased after him unhurriedly, taking the time to say some nasty words.Sun Chengxiu concentrated on hiding his strength, just pretending that he didn't hear those dirty words.It wasn't until she got close to the agreed place that her heart skipped a beat.
There was no one here.
She quickly recalled You Jinbao's actions, felt that she hadn't been exposed, and guessed that maybe the group of people happened to encounter unexpected accidents and had to take shelter temporarily, so she fled to the ruined temple where she had lived for the past few days. There is another wave of ambushes in reserve.
But the people in the ruined temple also disappeared.
Sun Chengxiu finally felt a little anxious, and rushed to a corner of the house full of dust and weeds to grab his knife.
There is nothing under the weeds!
You Jinbao rushed towards her determined to win, but she couldn't even find a wooden stick to resist, so she was forced to fight back with her bare hands.
"Have you ever practiced martial arts? No wonder you can run so far." You Jinbao immediately drew out his sword and pressed forward step by step.Sun Chengxiu gritted his teeth, his eyes were solemn, but his moves were not flustered. While avoiding the sword's edge, he changed his position and waited for the opportunity to find the dead corner of You Jinbao's defense to counterattack.
She has extraordinary skills, is not afraid of danger, and has a lot of experience in the world at first glance, and she is by no means an ordinary woman who happened to practice a few tricks.Suspicion gradually appeared in You Jinbao's eyes, and his moves were much more rigorous than when he first made the move. He took the time to ask sharply: "Where did you come from, and who did you instigate? Do you know that I have been picking flowers for a living for two years, and I am one of the most famous in the world." Number?"
Without saying a word, Sun Chengxiu dodged left and right to look for a chance to escape from the house, but in the end he suffered from being unarmed. One careless move was dangerous, and he was stabbed several times by You Jinbao.You Jinbao took the opportunity to punch her flying and slammed into the wall next to the gate. Seeing her spit out a mouthful of blood, he relaxed a little, tied the door and threatened, "Tell me the truth, what happened in the temple today is terrible." You know what I know, I’ll leave when I’m done; if you don’t tell me, I’ll play and you’ll throw it all on the street!”
He rushed straight at Sun Chengxiu, she couldn't dodge in time, she simply pre-empted, slammed into him, broke through the door with him and fell outside.Blood oozing from You Jinbao's back, turned over and held her down and said excitedly: "Your father and I will also see some blood. It's best to cheer up!" Overwhelmed.
You Jinbao pressed her arms with both hands, lowered his head and tore her clothes with his teeth, and asked gloomily, "Who ordered you?"
Sun Chengxiu stared blankly at his ugly face and said, "It was Chen's sister who asked me to come here after her death. Do you still remember her?"
You Jinbao sneered: "Why don't you remember?" He actually talked about the details of the night Miss Chen was humiliated by him, with extremely vicious words, and said, "This old female ghost has tricked you too. I stripped you naked and threw you on the street, will you kill yourself like that girl from the Chen family, or will you be ashamed to live?"
Intense hatred finally appeared in Sun Chengxiu's eyes: "Of course you are alive. If you all commit suicide, who will tell everyone that you are four feet tall, you smell bad, and someone beats your nose crooked?"
These words hit You Jinbao's taboo, his eyes spewed fire, his hands exerted all his strength, almost crushing her arm bones, and one knee deliberately pressed the wound on her body.Sun Chengxiu stared at him, without frowning.
For some reason, You Jinbao's left hand trembled suddenly, and all strength disappeared.Sun Chengxiu was concentrating on waiting for an opportunity to resist, and broke free with his right arm in an instant, and pressed his palm on You Jinbao's chest, with internal force everywhere, causing him to vomit blood and fall to the side.
You Jinbao heaved a sigh of relief, turned over and got up to pick up the sword.Sun Chengxiu didn't have time to grab the sword, so he simply kicked the sword away and fought with him empty-handed.This time, both of them were unarmed, and Sun Chengxiu's martial arts skills were much better than that of the flower pickers, and gradually gained the upper hand.
Until You Jinbao was already at a loss, the friends from the rivers and lakes who came with Sun Chengxiu finally rushed here after hearing the news, and they rushed to take You Jinbao down, and settled accounts with him one by one.Sun Chengxiu and Ms. Chen had only met each other a few times, and they came here purely out of righteous indignation, instead of joining in the fun, they went to a secluded place alone to wrap up their wounds, raised their heads and said to the sky: "Sister Chen, don't worry, after You Jinbao No chance to poison other girls. You go all the way."
Thinking back on what happened just now, she was also a little scared; thinking about Ms. Chen's experience before her suicide, which was a hundred times more tragic than this, she felt the fear and despair in her heart, and felt sad.
Sun Chengxiu knew in his heart that when he was in danger, You Jinbao's left arm suddenly lost strength, and there should be some masters helping him secretly.She guessed where the person was and asked, but unfortunately no one answered.
On the other side, a group of gangsters dealt with You Jinbao and confronted each other, only to find out that the brothers who had been ambush in the previous two places were lured away by Zheng Huan, a master who came with him, leaving Sun Chengxiu alone and in danger; Without a trace, Sun Chengxiu's knife was thrown on the roof of the ruined temple at some point.
There is only one young girl, Sun Chengxiu, in this group of people. They use her to lure You Jinbao out of the cave, but put her in danger, and they are very sorry.Sun Chengxiu shook his head indifferently: "It's okay. If I meet Zheng Huan in the future, please pay attention to me."
After everyone left, Sun Chengxiu turned back alone with an excuse, and once again faced the woods to the west of the ruined temple and reported his family: "My next son, Sun Chengxiu, has passed down the Fuwei saber technique. Thank you for your help."
A low laugh came from the woods, and a woman in all black slowly turned out.I saw that she was in her early twenties, with a shallow scar on her left cheek, but she couldn't conceal her radiant beauty.
"My name is Xiao Jiu."
Sun Chengxiu was stunned, and said sincerely: "I have admired your name for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you today and be rescued by Your Excellency!"
Xiao Jiu warned: "I don't want to reveal my whereabouts now. Don't tell others what happened today. It's best to just say that You Jinbao is invincible. I'll go first."
Sun Chengxiu hurriedly said: "Since your Excellency has something to do, I don't want to disturb you. If you have a chance, I will definitely thank you for saving my life today."
Xiao Jiu's black back disappeared into the woods, and only the voice came: "It's easy to do. You speak happily, and I feel comfortable." When Sun Chengxiu answered again, she had disappeared without a trace.
·Three·
A few months later, severe winter.
One morning, strong winds and heavy snow were raging. In Bixiao Mountain Villa, most of the Baidao people who came to discuss the countermeasures against Zui Ribao's crazy revenge stayed behind closed doors.
Qi Boxuan, a master of Bai Dao who had long turned his back, showed his ferocious face on this day, intending to assassinate Zhao Zengwen, the head of the Beiqiu School who was plagued by old wounds. Unexpectedly, he died under the joint attack of Zhao Zhangmen and the young swordsman Lu Shan; unfortunately, the other two disciples of the Beiqiu School Encountered a surprise attack by Qi Bo's accomplices, one was killed and the other was injured.
That mysterious accomplice came and went like the wind, leaving almost no traces.
At this time, Xuan Chongzi and head Zhao were concentrating on inspecting Qi Bo's body indoors, looking for clues; there were also many gangsters gathered nearby in small groups waiting for news.
Xiao Jiu sat alone in a place not sheltered from the wind and snow, his eyes were indifferent, and no one approached.I don't know how long it took, but Pei Yongguo came to her side and bowed solemnly: "Xiao Xia."
Xiao Jiu stood up and replied: "What's the matter?"
Pei Yongguo raised his hand to signal: "Xiao Xiaoxia is going this way."
The wind was sharp.After taking a few steps away from the crowd, their conversation was already mixed in the wind, making it difficult to hear anything but each other.Only then did Pei Yongguo ask: "From Xia Xiao's point of view, how is this Jianghu?"
Xiao Jiu said: "I'm a loner, I don't know the world."
Pei Yongguo squinted his eyes and looked into the wind: "As the wind of seniority has risen, those with ordinary family backgrounds can hardly move forward, and those with prominent backgrounds can do whatever they want. Famous heroes from all walks of life are inextricably linked. They tout each other and maintain each other. They only see the benefits but not the facts. Floating and sinking in the rivers and lakes, I only feel that its sinister and devious places are almost the same as the officialdom."
"I don't understand officialdom either, sorry."
Pei Yongguo stopped in his tracks and said solemnly: "I know Xiao Xia is just and upright in her affairs and does not show favoritism, so I dare to make such nonsense. From what I have seen, there are five doubts about the sect leader of Qin. First, he is resting today. He didn't need to be on duty, so he had time to act; secondly, when Mr. Zheng was killed, head Zhao invited his senior brother Qian Rui to search for clues together, but he didn't mention him, and He Erxia said on the spot, It hurt his face because he has the reason to hold grudges; thirdly, the wounds of the dead and wounded disciples of the Beiqiu School are very similar to his saber, and the number of wounding swordsmanship is also similar to the Chisumen swordsmanship. , so he has the power to do evil; [-], his lightness kung fu is extremely high, when it comes to coming and going without a trace, no one here is easier than him, so he has the ability to escape; [-], Qi Bo has a withdrawn personality , friends are few, and the last contact with people before the incident was to learn martial arts with Qin Ermen, so he should be suspected. These five points are definitely not fabricated out of thin air, why Xuanchongzi Taoist and others always Ignore it?"
Xiao Jiu said briefly: "I also don't think it's him, the murderer's martial arts are not as good as him."
Pei Yongguo closed his eyes in great pain: "I'm not good at martial arts, I made Xiao Xia laugh at her, but hearing Xiao Xia's meaning is just speculation, without any real evidence. If it's just because the possibility is not big, I will let go of many doubts. Investigate, restrain yourself first, I don’t know when the real culprit will be found!”
Xiao Jiu remained silent, Pei Yongguo said in a low voice: "The Chisu family may not have done nothing wrong to Miss Xiao many years ago, why should Miss Xiao care about their face? I am not good at martial arts and have no knowledge, so I can only turn to my friends in the world for help. Miss Xiao If Xia can help me find out the real culprit, Bai Dao will be relieved of his worries as soon as possible, and the remnants of Zuishi Castle will be wiped out, I will definitely repay you with all my strength, so that Xiao Xiaoxia will not offend Chisumen for nothing."
"I can't do anything. If you have real evidence, I will help you." Xiao Jiu simply turned around and left, returned to his original position and sat down.Pei Yongguo sighed and walked towards the others.
Xiao Jiu's eyes were slightly closed, and he was sitting leaning against a tree, but his mind was divided on Pei Yongguo, knowing that he found "Zhong Shanhu" and "Da Luo Yinxian" who were known for their greed and arrogance in turn.She has excellent hearing and can hear Pei Yongguo speak more straightforwardly to these two people and promise a lot of money.
After Xuan Chongzi and others checked the body, they did not find any useful clues.When everyone got together to discuss again, the doubts about Qin Songfeng really increased, and the voices questioning Xuan Chongzi and others whitewashing peace and protecting Chisumen became louder and louder. Pei Yongguo himself even made a generous statement, changing his usual elegance They were flushed red in the fight.Everyone lives in Pei Yongguo's country and spends Pei Yongguo's money, so it's really hard to argue with him.
Xuan Chongzi and head Zhao looked at each other, and finally made a decision: Xuan Chongzi and other experts brought Qin Songfeng to confront each other, and asked Ji Shuliu, Qian Rui and Qu Ze about today's affairs respectively to test Qin Songfeng's Nothing to hide.
Sun Chengxiu and Qin Songfeng had a close relationship, so they couldn't participate in it, and they were in a hurry to turn around.Xiao Jiu patted her on the shoulder from behind, took her aside, told everything about what he had just seen, and only concealed what Pei Yongguo said about his "old grievances" with Chisumen.
"Later, if Qin Songfeng can't remove the suspicion, I will tell Xuan Chongzi about it. I have nothing to do with the Chisu Sect, and my words are more credible. You can wait for the opportunity to discuss with Qian Rui of the Chisu Sect." Xiao Jiu glanced around. , "Pei Yongguo was probably taken advantage of by others. I would also like to know who deliberately framed the blame."
Soon, Qin Songfeng came here under the surveillance of more than a dozen masters.He didn't show any flaws during the confrontation, but because Pei Yongguo tried his best to oppose him, head Zhao felt that some people had suspicious attitudes, and had the idea of luring snakes out of their holes. In the end, everyone decided to put Qin Songfeng under house arrest temporarily, and Gao Yi led a few The masters took turns watching.
A day passed in a blink of an eye, the next day the east was still dark, Xiao Jiu had already got up, sitting on the roof and looking at the freshly fallen snow all over the ground.
Sun Chengxiu passed by nearby and happened to see her figure. A smile broke out on his face that was originally gloomy, and he waved his hand, but didn't make a sound.
This fit Xiao Jiu's temper.Xiao Jiu jumped directly from the roof, landed lightly, and asked, "How?"
"Xuan Chongzi Taoist priest personally ambushed near Zhuang Zhuang, and sent two people to watch the movements of Zhong Shanhu and Da Luo Yinxian separately. In addition, I have already informed Mr. Qian that he is also thinking of a way." Sun Chengxiu said cautiously. When speaking these words, he almost only moved his mouth, and did not make a sound.
"Very well, I'll just wait and see who the devil is."
"I want to ask you one more favor."
"Say."
Sun Chengxiu said: "Second Master Qin is very worried about the safety of Qu Ze and Ji Shuliu, but Master Pei does not allow me to see them because of my close relationship with Second Master Qin. Can you take a look for me? ? Now Taoist Master Xuan Chongzi refuses to meet the guests with an excuse, and this matter requires the tokens of Master Pei and Head Zhao."
"Okay." Xiao Jiu pressed Sun Chengxiu's shoulder casually, performed lightness kung fu and left.
Xiao Jiu claimed that he wanted to ask Qu Ze and Ji Shuliu something, but Pei Yongguo and Head Zhao had no reason to object, so they handed over the tokens to her.
Qu Ze was still tied to an iron plate and guarded by two Jianghu people.He was thin and haggard, only his eyes were sharp, but it seemed that he didn't suffer any extra losses in the past two days.
Xiao Jiu asked others to avoid him, and then asked him directly: "Your Excellency, do you think it is the poisonous hand of Zuishibao, or Baidao's internal strife?"
Qu Ze said, "I can't tell."
"Then the second master of Qin sect is suspected?"
"No."
Xiao Jiu smiled kindly, although most people couldn't figure out whether it was irony because he was usually too sharp.
Qu Ze stared at Xiao Jiu's sword, nodded slightly: "I know your sword, and I know where you come from."
"Oh?" Xiao Jiu showed a vigilant look.
"I don't care where you come from, I only recognize your sword."
Xiao Jiu stared into Qu Ze's eyes and said, "I always wanted to meet you when I was young." After a moment of pause, he added, "You still have sword intent in your eyes."
Qu Ze smiled and said, "You want to meet me after I recover?"
Xiao Jiu restrained his proud expression rarely, and replied: "You are a senior, I should ask for advice."
"As long as I live to that day, you can come anyway."
"As long as I can live to that day." Xiao Jiu bowed with his sword in his arms, turned around and left, talking to himself in a place where no one was around, "Obviously this person can't lie, why can't a group of people see it?"
When they came to the door of Ji Shuliu's cell, there were two guards standing there. Seeing that she was carrying a token, they wanted to call inside to inform her.Xiao Jiu asked lightly: "Could it be that there is some shady trick below to keep you so busy?" The voice was very soft, but with enough internal strength, it seemed to be ringing in the ears of those two people.The two of them were frightened by her immediately, and stared blankly at her walking down the stairs alone.
Xiao Jiu's footsteps were very light, and he had practiced the ability to see in the dark. He quietly went down to the corridor of the cell, but no one noticed.
In the cell, Ji Shuliu was lying on his back on the ground, as if he had suffered a new injury and was unable to sit up, he was alone to deal with the interrogation of He Daoyuan, He Daoxian brothers and Pei Yongguo's personal book boy.His eyes reflected the light of the oil lamp, as if anger was spewing out, he was so tyrannical that he was a different person than usual; his voice was a little hoarse and trembling, but his words were clear and forceful.
The book boy is yin and yang, and He Daoxian uses sharp words, and the two cooperate with each other to press forward step by step.Finally, Ji Shuliu couldn't hold back his temper, and accused loudly: "People in the Jianghu are trying to have a good time. If you want to force Ji to frame the second sect master of Qin, please say so clearly. Don't you think it's ridiculous to keep asking Ji to tell the truth?"
He Daoxian was furious and kicked Ji Shuliu's arm several times.Ji Shuliu didn't make a sound, he retracted his body in pain, and suddenly his whole body relaxed, and he passed out.
He Daoxian was stunned: "Have you fainted again? Is it real or fake? This kid can't help beating so much?"
He Daoyuan bent down to check, frowned and said: "It seems that he is really dizzy, and he can't wake up for a while. He was originally a monster. He grew up in Drunken Sun Castle, and he may have a special constitution."
On the other hand, the book boy didn't care: "He Daxia, He Erxia don't worry, since he has a special physique, we have nothing to be ashamed of."
The door of the cell was unlocked, Xiao Jiu pushed open the door and walked in, raised his left hand and shook the tokens of Zhao Zhangmen and Pei Yongguo, and said: "Has this person fainted? Unfortunately, I just have a few words to ask him .”
Shutong and He Daoyuan both looked a little embarrassed.Only He Daoxian boldly suggested: "Pour some ice water on his head, maybe it will wake him up."
Xiao Jiu said: "Who is to blame if he is drowned? I won't take such a risk, I'll just wait here for him to wake up." As he spoke, he sat down on the sidelines and put his sword across his knees.
She sat motionless for about an hour, and Ji Shuliu had no intention of waking up.He Daoyuan went to pinch him a few more times, but there was still no response, and he felt that he was a little hot, and his face was full of sadness.The book boy also became fidgety, and after discussing for a long time, they came up with the plan to move Ji Shuliu out for treatment, and asked Xiao Jiu's intention in fear.
Xiao Jiu said "OK".He Daoyuan and He Daoxian couldn't wait to raise their feet and heads as if they were relieved, and moved Ji Shuliu to the bed in the vacant room upstairs; the book boy left in a hurry and went to report the incident to Pei Yongguo.
Xiao Jiu took a careful look at Ji Shuliu, only to see that his face was bloodless, his brows were still furrowed, as if the anger before he fainted had not dissipated.She poured a glass of cold water, handed it to He Daoyuan without a word, watched him pour Ji Shuliu, then turned and went out: "Keep an eye on him, I'll come back later."
The He brothers looked at each other in blank dismay, so they had to obediently stand by.
Xiao Jiu was lying. After leaving, he didn't look back and went directly to Sun Chengxiu to tell what he had heard.Sun Chengxiu was very indignant at the behavior of the He brothers, and told Xiao Jiu that Xuan Chongzi and others had seen with their own eyes how Pei Yongguo gave Zhong Shanhu and Da Luo Yinxian 100 taels of silver each, and found more people who accepted bribes .
It is not a good thing to accept bribes to speak for others, not to mention that Pei Yongguo's sneaky behavior can easily arouse suspicion. When the confrontation is held tomorrow, the situation will definitely reverse.Xiao Jiu smiled and said, "It seems that I have contributed a lot."
It was the first time Sun Chengxiu saw Xiao Jiu's gentle smile, and said happily, "Of course you deserve the greatest credit!"
· Four ·
Three days later, under the investigation of all the people, Pei Yongguo was induced by traitors to mistakenly regard Qin Songfeng as an enemy.
In the end, Sun Chengxiu stepped forward to challenge and defeated Gao Yi alone. Although he became famous in the first battle, he was also seriously injured. He planned to go to Qiyan Villa to recuperate with Qian Rui and Qu Ze.Xiao Jiu had other things to do and left alone.
Before everyone parted, Sun Chengxiu said goodbye to Qin Songfeng, and then began to look for Xiao Jiu's figure. He was looking around on tiptoe, when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder from behind.
Sun Chengxiu immediately sensed that it was Xiao Jiu, and took her arm to say goodbye.
When he got to a place where no one was around, Sun Chengxiu asked quietly: "In the past two days, I heard from others that Master Pei asked you to help deal with the second sect master of Qin because you had an old enmity with Chisu sect? What kind of grudge? How come I've never heard of it?"
Xiao Jiu shook his head lightly: "There is no old enmity, it's just that there was a rumor in Jianghu back then. Pei Yongguo didn't know the truth, so he believed it when he heard it."
"What rumor, can you tell me?"
"Of course I can." Xiao Jiu started from the beginning with a smile, and even confessed his behavior of beating someone and crying a lot as an anecdote, and finally regretted, "——I was young and ignorant at that time, and I was scared by a few rumors. Looking forward and backward, I dare not even see Qin Songfeng's face. If it were changed to now, I would go to Qin Songfeng to compete with swords every day, and I would be exhausted by those who spread rumors. Maybe my swordsmanship can advance faster."
Sun Chengxiu saw her smile with warmth in her brows, couldn't help laughing and said: "Then you can try it now!"
"Now that I'm free, I'd like to meet you. The saber technique you performed today is twice as strong as what I saw last year. It's really a leap forward. Chengxiu, you have great potential, and you are open-minded. It is not easy to go on a detour , I might be able to find my own way in the sword technique in the future."
Sun Chengxiu asked happily: "You called me Chengxiu, what should I call you?"
"The sisters of the Linshui Gang call me Ajiu."
At this time, the crowd had gradually dispersed, and Sun Chengxiu hurriedly said goodbye: "Ajiu, there will be a time later!"
"It's not far away."
Sun Chengxiu walked towards Qian Rui and Qu Ze, Xiao Jiu punched Qu Ze from a distance, turned and left without looking back.
After Sun Chengxiu got on the horse and looked back, he couldn't find Xiao Jiu, only Qin Songfeng helped Ji Shuliu onto the horse very naturally.On the snowy ground, one of the two has a handsome face and a tall and straight figure, the other has a gentle and elegant expression and a resolute expression. Their gestures and gestures are full of tacit understanding, which makes people envy the deep brotherhood.
The author has something to say: There is another spoof update, the picture is wider, let’s make it a link^o^There is a surprise!

Jingchai, tattered cloth skirt.
A youthful and beautiful face, with delicate makeup that ordinary people can't detect.
Sun Chengxiu knelt and sat on the streets of the busy city in a cautious manner, claiming that his close relatives could not afford the serious illness, and the medical expenses were difficult to afford. He heard that there were many wealthy households in this city, so he came to become a seller to pass on treasures.
In the past three days, she had already sold many pieces of exquisitely crafted jewelry, and there was only one jade cup carved by a famous artist, which was so expensive that no one was willing to buy it.
When the sun was setting to the west, she put away the jade cup and walked towards the ruined temple on the outskirts of the city where she lived. When she reached a secluded place, she suddenly frowned.Sure enough, someone stopped her loudly from behind: "Girl, show me your jade cup. Others don't know what it is, but I can."
Sun Chengxiu blinked, turned to look back with a naive look full of hope, and saw a short young man wearing a gorgeously decorated long sword. The bridge of his nose seemed to be broken, slightly tilted to the left, making his expression a bit hideous.She immediately understood that there was no mistake, the person who came must be the person she was going to catch on this trip, the villainous flower picker You Jinbao.
Staring at her face, You Jinbao approached, took the jade cup and played with it for a while, chatted with her a few more gossips, mentioned her plight at home, and said sympathetically, "You are such a poor person." As he spoke, he wanted to touch her hand.
Sun Chengxiu hurriedly dodged, a trace of panic appeared in his eyes.You Jinbao suddenly smiled obscenely, not only his nose was crooked, but also his mouth was crooked: "To be honest, your jade cup can't be sold at such a high price, but if you add it, I'll pay three times the price." .” Without waiting for her answer, he stretched out his hand to grab her front.
Sun Chengxiu had expected that he would be like this, took advantage of You Jinbao's mind not on the jade cup, snatched it back, turned around and fled to the ambush place of his fellow Jianghu friends.How could You Jinbao be willing to give up the treasure he had already obtained, and he would not let go of the prey that was about to be obtained, and followed closely behind.
Sun Chengxiu was afraid that You Jinbao might become suspicious, so he didn't run too fast, but You Jinbao chased after him unhurriedly, taking the time to say some nasty words.Sun Chengxiu concentrated on hiding his strength, just pretending that he didn't hear those dirty words.It wasn't until she got close to the agreed place that her heart skipped a beat.
There was no one here.
She quickly recalled You Jinbao's actions, felt that she hadn't been exposed, and guessed that maybe the group of people happened to encounter unexpected accidents and had to take shelter temporarily, so she fled to the ruined temple where she had lived for the past few days. There is another wave of ambushes in reserve.
But the people in the ruined temple also disappeared.
Sun Chengxiu finally felt a little anxious, and rushed to a corner of the house full of dust and weeds to grab his knife.
There is nothing under the weeds!
You Jinbao rushed towards her determined to win, but she couldn't even find a wooden stick to resist, so she was forced to fight back with her bare hands.
"Have you ever practiced martial arts? No wonder you can run so far." You Jinbao immediately drew out his sword and pressed forward step by step.Sun Chengxiu gritted his teeth, his eyes were solemn, but his moves were not flustered. While avoiding the sword's edge, he changed his position and waited for the opportunity to find the dead corner of You Jinbao's defense to counterattack.
She has extraordinary skills, is not afraid of danger, and has a lot of experience in the world at first glance, and she is by no means an ordinary woman who happened to practice a few tricks.Suspicion gradually appeared in You Jinbao's eyes, and his moves were much more rigorous than when he first made the move. He took the time to ask sharply: "Where did you come from, and who did you instigate? Do you know that I have been picking flowers for a living for two years, and I am one of the most famous in the world." Number?"
Without saying a word, Sun Chengxiu dodged left and right to look for a chance to escape from the house, but in the end he suffered from being unarmed. One careless move was dangerous, and he was stabbed several times by You Jinbao.You Jinbao took the opportunity to punch her flying and slammed into the wall next to the gate. Seeing her spit out a mouthful of blood, he relaxed a little, tied the door and threatened, "Tell me the truth, what happened in the temple today is terrible." You know what I know, I’ll leave when I’m done; if you don’t tell me, I’ll play and you’ll throw it all on the street!”
He rushed straight at Sun Chengxiu, she couldn't dodge in time, she simply pre-empted, slammed into him, broke through the door with him and fell outside.Blood oozing from You Jinbao's back, turned over and held her down and said excitedly: "Your father and I will also see some blood. It's best to cheer up!" Overwhelmed.
You Jinbao pressed her arms with both hands, lowered his head and tore her clothes with his teeth, and asked gloomily, "Who ordered you?"
Sun Chengxiu stared blankly at his ugly face and said, "It was Chen's sister who asked me to come here after her death. Do you still remember her?"
You Jinbao sneered: "Why don't you remember?" He actually talked about the details of the night Miss Chen was humiliated by him, with extremely vicious words, and said, "This old female ghost has tricked you too. I stripped you naked and threw you on the street, will you kill yourself like that girl from the Chen family, or will you be ashamed to live?"
Intense hatred finally appeared in Sun Chengxiu's eyes: "Of course you are alive. If you all commit suicide, who will tell everyone that you are four feet tall, you smell bad, and someone beats your nose crooked?"
These words hit You Jinbao's taboo, his eyes spewed fire, his hands exerted all his strength, almost crushing her arm bones, and one knee deliberately pressed the wound on her body.Sun Chengxiu stared at him, without frowning.
For some reason, You Jinbao's left hand trembled suddenly, and all strength disappeared.Sun Chengxiu was concentrating on waiting for an opportunity to resist, and broke free with his right arm in an instant, and pressed his palm on You Jinbao's chest, with internal force everywhere, causing him to vomit blood and fall to the side.
You Jinbao heaved a sigh of relief, turned over and got up to pick up the sword.Sun Chengxiu didn't have time to grab the sword, so he simply kicked the sword away and fought with him empty-handed.This time, both of them were unarmed, and Sun Chengxiu's martial arts skills were much better than that of the flower pickers, and gradually gained the upper hand.
Until You Jinbao was already at a loss, the friends from the rivers and lakes who came with Sun Chengxiu finally rushed here after hearing the news, and they rushed to take You Jinbao down, and settled accounts with him one by one.Sun Chengxiu and Ms. Chen had only met each other a few times, and they came here purely out of righteous indignation, instead of joining in the fun, they went to a secluded place alone to wrap up their wounds, raised their heads and said to the sky: "Sister Chen, don't worry, after You Jinbao No chance to poison other girls. You go all the way."
Thinking back on what happened just now, she was also a little scared; thinking about Ms. Chen's experience before her suicide, which was a hundred times more tragic than this, she felt the fear and despair in her heart, and felt sad.
Sun Chengxiu knew in his heart that when he was in danger, You Jinbao's left arm suddenly lost strength, and there should be some masters helping him secretly.She guessed where the person was and asked, but unfortunately no one answered.
On the other side, a group of gangsters dealt with You Jinbao and confronted each other, only to find out that the brothers who had been ambush in the previous two places were lured away by Zheng Huan, a master who came with him, leaving Sun Chengxiu alone and in danger; Without a trace, Sun Chengxiu's knife was thrown on the roof of the ruined temple at some point.
There is only one young girl, Sun Chengxiu, in this group of people. They use her to lure You Jinbao out of the cave, but put her in danger, and they are very sorry.Sun Chengxiu shook his head indifferently: "It's okay. If I meet Zheng Huan in the future, please pay attention to me."
After everyone left, Sun Chengxiu turned back alone with an excuse, and once again faced the woods to the west of the ruined temple and reported his family: "My next son, Sun Chengxiu, has passed down the Fuwei saber technique. Thank you for your help."
A low laugh came from the woods, and a woman in all black slowly turned out.I saw that she was in her early twenties, with a shallow scar on her left cheek, but she couldn't conceal her radiant beauty.
"My name is Xiao Jiu."
Sun Chengxiu was stunned, and said sincerely: "I have admired your name for a long time, but I didn't expect to meet you today and be rescued by Your Excellency!"
Xiao Jiu warned: "I don't want to reveal my whereabouts now. Don't tell others what happened today. It's best to just say that You Jinbao is invincible. I'll go first."
Sun Chengxiu hurriedly said: "Since your Excellency has something to do, I don't want to disturb you. If you have a chance, I will definitely thank you for saving my life today."
Xiao Jiu's black back disappeared into the woods, and only the voice came: "It's easy to do. You speak happily, and I feel comfortable." When Sun Chengxiu answered again, she had disappeared without a trace.
·Three·
A few months later, severe winter.
One morning, strong winds and heavy snow were raging. In Bixiao Mountain Villa, most of the Baidao people who came to discuss the countermeasures against Zui Ribao's crazy revenge stayed behind closed doors.
Qi Boxuan, a master of Bai Dao who had long turned his back, showed his ferocious face on this day, intending to assassinate Zhao Zengwen, the head of the Beiqiu School who was plagued by old wounds. Unexpectedly, he died under the joint attack of Zhao Zhangmen and the young swordsman Lu Shan; unfortunately, the other two disciples of the Beiqiu School Encountered a surprise attack by Qi Bo's accomplices, one was killed and the other was injured.
That mysterious accomplice came and went like the wind, leaving almost no traces.
At this time, Xuan Chongzi and head Zhao were concentrating on inspecting Qi Bo's body indoors, looking for clues; there were also many gangsters gathered nearby in small groups waiting for news.
Xiao Jiu sat alone in a place not sheltered from the wind and snow, his eyes were indifferent, and no one approached.I don't know how long it took, but Pei Yongguo came to her side and bowed solemnly: "Xiao Xia."
Xiao Jiu stood up and replied: "What's the matter?"
Pei Yongguo raised his hand to signal: "Xiao Xiaoxia is going this way."
The wind was sharp.After taking a few steps away from the crowd, their conversation was already mixed in the wind, making it difficult to hear anything but each other.Only then did Pei Yongguo ask: "From Xia Xiao's point of view, how is this Jianghu?"
Xiao Jiu said: "I'm a loner, I don't know the world."
Pei Yongguo squinted his eyes and looked into the wind: "As the wind of seniority has risen, those with ordinary family backgrounds can hardly move forward, and those with prominent backgrounds can do whatever they want. Famous heroes from all walks of life are inextricably linked. They tout each other and maintain each other. They only see the benefits but not the facts. Floating and sinking in the rivers and lakes, I only feel that its sinister and devious places are almost the same as the officialdom."
"I don't understand officialdom either, sorry."
Pei Yongguo stopped in his tracks and said solemnly: "I know Xiao Xia is just and upright in her affairs and does not show favoritism, so I dare to make such nonsense. From what I have seen, there are five doubts about the sect leader of Qin. First, he is resting today. He didn't need to be on duty, so he had time to act; secondly, when Mr. Zheng was killed, head Zhao invited his senior brother Qian Rui to search for clues together, but he didn't mention him, and He Erxia said on the spot, It hurt his face because he has the reason to hold grudges; thirdly, the wounds of the dead and wounded disciples of the Beiqiu School are very similar to his saber, and the number of wounding swordsmanship is also similar to the Chisumen swordsmanship. , so he has the power to do evil; [-], his lightness kung fu is extremely high, when it comes to coming and going without a trace, no one here is easier than him, so he has the ability to escape; [-], Qi Bo has a withdrawn personality , friends are few, and the last contact with people before the incident was to learn martial arts with Qin Ermen, so he should be suspected. These five points are definitely not fabricated out of thin air, why Xuanchongzi Taoist and others always Ignore it?"
Xiao Jiu said briefly: "I also don't think it's him, the murderer's martial arts are not as good as him."
Pei Yongguo closed his eyes in great pain: "I'm not good at martial arts, I made Xiao Xia laugh at her, but hearing Xiao Xia's meaning is just speculation, without any real evidence. If it's just because the possibility is not big, I will let go of many doubts. Investigate, restrain yourself first, I don’t know when the real culprit will be found!”
Xiao Jiu remained silent, Pei Yongguo said in a low voice: "The Chisu family may not have done nothing wrong to Miss Xiao many years ago, why should Miss Xiao care about their face? I am not good at martial arts and have no knowledge, so I can only turn to my friends in the world for help. Miss Xiao If Xia can help me find out the real culprit, Bai Dao will be relieved of his worries as soon as possible, and the remnants of Zuishi Castle will be wiped out, I will definitely repay you with all my strength, so that Xiao Xiaoxia will not offend Chisumen for nothing."
"I can't do anything. If you have real evidence, I will help you." Xiao Jiu simply turned around and left, returned to his original position and sat down.Pei Yongguo sighed and walked towards the others.
Xiao Jiu's eyes were slightly closed, and he was sitting leaning against a tree, but his mind was divided on Pei Yongguo, knowing that he found "Zhong Shanhu" and "Da Luo Yinxian" who were known for their greed and arrogance in turn.She has excellent hearing and can hear Pei Yongguo speak more straightforwardly to these two people and promise a lot of money.
After Xuan Chongzi and others checked the body, they did not find any useful clues.When everyone got together to discuss again, the doubts about Qin Songfeng really increased, and the voices questioning Xuan Chongzi and others whitewashing peace and protecting Chisumen became louder and louder. Pei Yongguo himself even made a generous statement, changing his usual elegance They were flushed red in the fight.Everyone lives in Pei Yongguo's country and spends Pei Yongguo's money, so it's really hard to argue with him.
Xuan Chongzi and head Zhao looked at each other, and finally made a decision: Xuan Chongzi and other experts brought Qin Songfeng to confront each other, and asked Ji Shuliu, Qian Rui and Qu Ze about today's affairs respectively to test Qin Songfeng's Nothing to hide.
Sun Chengxiu and Qin Songfeng had a close relationship, so they couldn't participate in it, and they were in a hurry to turn around.Xiao Jiu patted her on the shoulder from behind, took her aside, told everything about what he had just seen, and only concealed what Pei Yongguo said about his "old grievances" with Chisumen.
"Later, if Qin Songfeng can't remove the suspicion, I will tell Xuan Chongzi about it. I have nothing to do with the Chisu Sect, and my words are more credible. You can wait for the opportunity to discuss with Qian Rui of the Chisu Sect." Xiao Jiu glanced around. , "Pei Yongguo was probably taken advantage of by others. I would also like to know who deliberately framed the blame."
Soon, Qin Songfeng came here under the surveillance of more than a dozen masters.He didn't show any flaws during the confrontation, but because Pei Yongguo tried his best to oppose him, head Zhao felt that some people had suspicious attitudes, and had the idea of luring snakes out of their holes. In the end, everyone decided to put Qin Songfeng under house arrest temporarily, and Gao Yi led a few The masters took turns watching.
A day passed in a blink of an eye, the next day the east was still dark, Xiao Jiu had already got up, sitting on the roof and looking at the freshly fallen snow all over the ground.
Sun Chengxiu passed by nearby and happened to see her figure. A smile broke out on his face that was originally gloomy, and he waved his hand, but didn't make a sound.
This fit Xiao Jiu's temper.Xiao Jiu jumped directly from the roof, landed lightly, and asked, "How?"
"Xuan Chongzi Taoist priest personally ambushed near Zhuang Zhuang, and sent two people to watch the movements of Zhong Shanhu and Da Luo Yinxian separately. In addition, I have already informed Mr. Qian that he is also thinking of a way." Sun Chengxiu said cautiously. When speaking these words, he almost only moved his mouth, and did not make a sound.
"Very well, I'll just wait and see who the devil is."
"I want to ask you one more favor."
"Say."
Sun Chengxiu said: "Second Master Qin is very worried about the safety of Qu Ze and Ji Shuliu, but Master Pei does not allow me to see them because of my close relationship with Second Master Qin. Can you take a look for me? ? Now Taoist Master Xuan Chongzi refuses to meet the guests with an excuse, and this matter requires the tokens of Master Pei and Head Zhao."
"Okay." Xiao Jiu pressed Sun Chengxiu's shoulder casually, performed lightness kung fu and left.
Xiao Jiu claimed that he wanted to ask Qu Ze and Ji Shuliu something, but Pei Yongguo and Head Zhao had no reason to object, so they handed over the tokens to her.
Qu Ze was still tied to an iron plate and guarded by two Jianghu people.He was thin and haggard, only his eyes were sharp, but it seemed that he didn't suffer any extra losses in the past two days.
Xiao Jiu asked others to avoid him, and then asked him directly: "Your Excellency, do you think it is the poisonous hand of Zuishibao, or Baidao's internal strife?"
Qu Ze said, "I can't tell."
"Then the second master of Qin sect is suspected?"
"No."
Xiao Jiu smiled kindly, although most people couldn't figure out whether it was irony because he was usually too sharp.
Qu Ze stared at Xiao Jiu's sword, nodded slightly: "I know your sword, and I know where you come from."
"Oh?" Xiao Jiu showed a vigilant look.
"I don't care where you come from, I only recognize your sword."
Xiao Jiu stared into Qu Ze's eyes and said, "I always wanted to meet you when I was young." After a moment of pause, he added, "You still have sword intent in your eyes."
Qu Ze smiled and said, "You want to meet me after I recover?"
Xiao Jiu restrained his proud expression rarely, and replied: "You are a senior, I should ask for advice."
"As long as I live to that day, you can come anyway."
"As long as I can live to that day." Xiao Jiu bowed with his sword in his arms, turned around and left, talking to himself in a place where no one was around, "Obviously this person can't lie, why can't a group of people see it?"
When they came to the door of Ji Shuliu's cell, there were two guards standing there. Seeing that she was carrying a token, they wanted to call inside to inform her.Xiao Jiu asked lightly: "Could it be that there is some shady trick below to keep you so busy?" The voice was very soft, but with enough internal strength, it seemed to be ringing in the ears of those two people.The two of them were frightened by her immediately, and stared blankly at her walking down the stairs alone.
Xiao Jiu's footsteps were very light, and he had practiced the ability to see in the dark. He quietly went down to the corridor of the cell, but no one noticed.
In the cell, Ji Shuliu was lying on his back on the ground, as if he had suffered a new injury and was unable to sit up, he was alone to deal with the interrogation of He Daoyuan, He Daoxian brothers and Pei Yongguo's personal book boy.His eyes reflected the light of the oil lamp, as if anger was spewing out, he was so tyrannical that he was a different person than usual; his voice was a little hoarse and trembling, but his words were clear and forceful.
The book boy is yin and yang, and He Daoxian uses sharp words, and the two cooperate with each other to press forward step by step.Finally, Ji Shuliu couldn't hold back his temper, and accused loudly: "People in the Jianghu are trying to have a good time. If you want to force Ji to frame the second sect master of Qin, please say so clearly. Don't you think it's ridiculous to keep asking Ji to tell the truth?"
He Daoxian was furious and kicked Ji Shuliu's arm several times.Ji Shuliu didn't make a sound, he retracted his body in pain, and suddenly his whole body relaxed, and he passed out.
He Daoxian was stunned: "Have you fainted again? Is it real or fake? This kid can't help beating so much?"
He Daoyuan bent down to check, frowned and said: "It seems that he is really dizzy, and he can't wake up for a while. He was originally a monster. He grew up in Drunken Sun Castle, and he may have a special constitution."
On the other hand, the book boy didn't care: "He Daxia, He Erxia don't worry, since he has a special physique, we have nothing to be ashamed of."
The door of the cell was unlocked, Xiao Jiu pushed open the door and walked in, raised his left hand and shook the tokens of Zhao Zhangmen and Pei Yongguo, and said: "Has this person fainted? Unfortunately, I just have a few words to ask him .”
Shutong and He Daoyuan both looked a little embarrassed.Only He Daoxian boldly suggested: "Pour some ice water on his head, maybe it will wake him up."
Xiao Jiu said: "Who is to blame if he is drowned? I won't take such a risk, I'll just wait here for him to wake up." As he spoke, he sat down on the sidelines and put his sword across his knees.
She sat motionless for about an hour, and Ji Shuliu had no intention of waking up.He Daoyuan went to pinch him a few more times, but there was still no response, and he felt that he was a little hot, and his face was full of sadness.The book boy also became fidgety, and after discussing for a long time, they came up with the plan to move Ji Shuliu out for treatment, and asked Xiao Jiu's intention in fear.
Xiao Jiu said "OK".He Daoyuan and He Daoxian couldn't wait to raise their feet and heads as if they were relieved, and moved Ji Shuliu to the bed in the vacant room upstairs; the book boy left in a hurry and went to report the incident to Pei Yongguo.
Xiao Jiu took a careful look at Ji Shuliu, only to see that his face was bloodless, his brows were still furrowed, as if the anger before he fainted had not dissipated.She poured a glass of cold water, handed it to He Daoyuan without a word, watched him pour Ji Shuliu, then turned and went out: "Keep an eye on him, I'll come back later."
The He brothers looked at each other in blank dismay, so they had to obediently stand by.
Xiao Jiu was lying. After leaving, he didn't look back and went directly to Sun Chengxiu to tell what he had heard.Sun Chengxiu was very indignant at the behavior of the He brothers, and told Xiao Jiu that Xuan Chongzi and others had seen with their own eyes how Pei Yongguo gave Zhong Shanhu and Da Luo Yinxian 100 taels of silver each, and found more people who accepted bribes .
It is not a good thing to accept bribes to speak for others, not to mention that Pei Yongguo's sneaky behavior can easily arouse suspicion. When the confrontation is held tomorrow, the situation will definitely reverse.Xiao Jiu smiled and said, "It seems that I have contributed a lot."
It was the first time Sun Chengxiu saw Xiao Jiu's gentle smile, and said happily, "Of course you deserve the greatest credit!"
· Four ·
Three days later, under the investigation of all the people, Pei Yongguo was induced by traitors to mistakenly regard Qin Songfeng as an enemy.
In the end, Sun Chengxiu stepped forward to challenge and defeated Gao Yi alone. Although he became famous in the first battle, he was also seriously injured. He planned to go to Qiyan Villa to recuperate with Qian Rui and Qu Ze.Xiao Jiu had other things to do and left alone.
Before everyone parted, Sun Chengxiu said goodbye to Qin Songfeng, and then began to look for Xiao Jiu's figure. He was looking around on tiptoe, when suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder from behind.
Sun Chengxiu immediately sensed that it was Xiao Jiu, and took her arm to say goodbye.
When he got to a place where no one was around, Sun Chengxiu asked quietly: "In the past two days, I heard from others that Master Pei asked you to help deal with the second sect master of Qin because you had an old enmity with Chisu sect? What kind of grudge? How come I've never heard of it?"
Xiao Jiu shook his head lightly: "There is no old enmity, it's just that there was a rumor in Jianghu back then. Pei Yongguo didn't know the truth, so he believed it when he heard it."
"What rumor, can you tell me?"
"Of course I can." Xiao Jiu started from the beginning with a smile, and even confessed his behavior of beating someone and crying a lot as an anecdote, and finally regretted, "——I was young and ignorant at that time, and I was scared by a few rumors. Looking forward and backward, I dare not even see Qin Songfeng's face. If it were changed to now, I would go to Qin Songfeng to compete with swords every day, and I would be exhausted by those who spread rumors. Maybe my swordsmanship can advance faster."
Sun Chengxiu saw her smile with warmth in her brows, couldn't help laughing and said: "Then you can try it now!"
"Now that I'm free, I'd like to meet you. The saber technique you performed today is twice as strong as what I saw last year. It's really a leap forward. Chengxiu, you have great potential, and you are open-minded. It is not easy to go on a detour , I might be able to find my own way in the sword technique in the future."
Sun Chengxiu asked happily: "You called me Chengxiu, what should I call you?"
"The sisters of the Linshui Gang call me Ajiu."
At this time, the crowd had gradually dispersed, and Sun Chengxiu hurriedly said goodbye: "Ajiu, there will be a time later!"
"It's not far away."
Sun Chengxiu walked towards Qian Rui and Qu Ze, Xiao Jiu punched Qu Ze from a distance, turned and left without looking back.
After Sun Chengxiu got on the horse and looked back, he couldn't find Xiao Jiu, only Qin Songfeng helped Ji Shuliu onto the horse very naturally.On the snowy ground, one of the two has a handsome face and a tall and straight figure, the other has a gentle and elegant expression and a resolute expression. Their gestures and gestures are full of tacit understanding, which makes people envy the deep brotherhood.
