In the northern part of Liaodong, there is the Zhenluting ruins.

On the top of the mountain that was rumored to have been flattened by Thunder Dao, no trace of snow could be seen, and even the withered and yellow grass roots had been cleaned up.

Under the small tree that had lost all its leaves and only dead branches were left, there were no longer just two lonely tombs depending on each other. Many new tombs were added around them, scattered and orderly.

In front of these new graves are stone tombstones that are rare these days.

The beginning of the inscriptions, without exception, all have the word "天阙", which is regular but not rigid. It is obvious that each stroke is manually carved.

"Listen to me. The fact that you can come here and be neighbors with Mr. Su is the blessing you have accumulated in your previous life. So everyone, please be honest and behave yourself, and don't be lazy when you need to serve."

"Otherwise, when Li Jun comes to settle accounts with me in the future, saying that I disturbed Mr. Su's purity and wants to dig you out one by one, I won't protect you. When your body is exposed in the wilderness, it will be your own fault."

A tall and thin figure walked among the old and new tombs. He bent his waist and carefully wiped each tombstone with the wet cloth in his hand, not even a tiny particle of dust was missed.

The man has a messy bun on his head, with a few strands of gray hair falling in front of his eyebrows. The edges of his face are covered by a messy beard, making him look slovenly.

People living in nearby counties know that not long ago, a young tombkeeper named Jiang Wei suddenly appeared on the site of Zhenluting of the Wuxu sect in Liaodong, and he wandered on that deserted hill all day long. , rarely go down the mountain.

Even if he went to the city occasionally, he would buy some incense, paper money, fine wine and cigarettes, and then leave immediately, never staying in the city longer or having any contact with outsiders.

However, the discussion about him did not last long, and no one was free enough to find out.

Because there have been too many major events happening in the empire recently. Major events that were rare in the past few years are now happening almost every day.

This morning another Honghu rebellion broke out in a coastal state capital, and in the afternoon there were rumors that a wealthy family in South Zhili had been executed.

I just heard that the spectacular scene of "Hundred People Breaking the Order" was staged in Longhu Mountain. When I turned around, a shocking tragedy occurred somewhere. Hundreds of drug addicts all died overnight in Huangliang Dreamland.

The news that was difficult to distinguish between true and false was like a blizzard that flooded the entire Liaodong. People's initial curiosity gradually evolved into numbness, and finally turned into uneasiness and fear.

The storm is about to come, and in such a chaotic situation, naturally no one will care about such a madman wandering among the tombs.

"Mr. Su, guess what this is?"

In front of Su Ce's grave, Jiang Wei took out a clay-sealed wine jar from the backpack placed at his feet and held it in his hands like a treasure.

"Look, this is the famous Laolongkou in Liaodong. It uses the most traditional brewing process from thousands of years ago. It is said that it has been buried underground for many years. It is really good stuff."

"Don't worry, I know you are not interested in wine, please take a look at this again."

Jiang Wei placed the wine jar on the ground and pulled out a tightly sealed white strip from his backpack.

"Does it look familiar? It looks familiar. This is a special offering from Jinyiwei. The one you liked the most when you were in the Japanese area. I specially asked someone to get it from Liaodong Baihu."

Jiang Wei sat cross-legged in front of the grave, unpacking the cigarettes and wine he had brought.

The spicy aroma of wine wafted in the wind, and expensive soju was poured onto the ground.

In the light white smoke, three cigarettes were placed two fingers apart from each other, stuck in the soil where they had just drunk strong alcohol.

"Master Chi, don't worry, how could I forget you? Did you see, good engine oil will definitely be enough."

After finishing all this, Jiang Wei changed from sitting to kneeling. The smile on his face that was full of vicissitudes of life disappeared, replaced by a deep sense of guilt, and he kowtowed three times to Su Ce respectfully.

"Old man, please don't be angry. I know that you have always looked down on Tianque's behavior during your lifetime. You think that we are all weaklings and have disgraced the sect's martial arts. But I really don't know where to place them this time. It’s safe, so I had no choice but to bring them to you.”

Jiang Wei's eyes darkened: "Now the Tianque that I am familiar with is no longer there. As the old saying goes, debts are wiped out after death. No matter what they have done to you in the past, I hope you won't argue with them. Just give them a place so that they can do the same." Get clean."

Jiang Wei paused for a moment before his mud-stained forehead touched the ground again.

This time he didn't lift up for a long time, but quietly listened to the wind passing through the wilderness, and it seemed that there was a voice coming from Su Ce.

The wind whimpered, like a vague answer.

"I represent the 132 souls of Tianque and Shen Li. Thank you."

Another jar of old dragon's mouth, but this time Jiang Wei did not pour it on the ground, but gently placed it next to the tombstone.

"Smoke slowly, drink slowly, and don't scold me for being worthless. I just hide here and guard the tombs, and don't dare to avenge them."

Jiang Wei took a deep breath and then said: "I am not afraid of death, and I have never thought about relying on Li Jun's reputation to survive this life. I, Jiang Wei, am not that kind of person. Although Sheji was destroyed, the Eastern Palace is still there. Yes. When they are all arranged, I will naturally go to the East Palace to take revenge, and I will not hinder your eyes here. "

After saying this, Jiang Wei was silent for a long time.

He waited until more than half of the smoke on the ground had burned down before he spoke again, but his voice became extra hoarse for no reason.

"I know that I am not strong enough. A sect Xu Si wants to take revenge on the East Palace. It sounds like bragging. In fact, when I was in Xin'an City, I had already realized the gap between myself and them. It's just a flesh and blood farm. I was unable to save even one person."

Jiang Wei knelt on the ground, his hands on his thighs slowly clenched into fists, and veins popped up on the backs of his hands.

"That day, I met Shen Li outside Xin'an City. He was still alive."

Jiang Wei twitched his lips, as if he wanted to show a lighter smile, but he couldn't move the corners of his heavy mouth.

"I don't know if you have met him. That kid is a bastard. He is domineering and extremely proud. He often brags to me about being a gang leader in Jinmen and tells me that if I can't survive anymore, I worship him as my eldest brother, he will protect me and ensure that I am well-off and no one dares to bully me.”

"But when I saw him that day, I almost didn't recognize him."

Jiang Wei let out a heavy breath, "Martial arts are completely useless, and the order is empty. A martial artist who was once fearless has been reduced to the point where he can't even stand. But even after reaching that point, Shen Li is still ruthless He pushed me hard and yelled at me to leave Xin'an quickly, saying this was no place for me to mingle."

"That bastard himself was beaten into a cripple, but his mouth is still so weak. I didn't argue with him and planned to rush out with him, but in the end, old man, what do you think he said?"

Jiang Wei stared at the gray tombstone, with resentment in his voice, like a young man who had been wronged outside and returned home to complain to his elders.

"He said he can't leave, he wants to stay here, because his eldest brother Li Jun is now trapped in Jichang to save him. He can't be a treacherous coward."

"He can't be a coward, how can I be? He can't abandon Li Jun, how can I abandon him?"

Jiang Wei shook his head and said: "I'm not afraid of death, and I don't want to leave. But Shen Li said something to me. He said that Tianque cannot die, someone must live, and someone must remember these hatreds, no matter how much they pay. The price must be paid.”

"He said that he is already a useless person, and there is no difference between living and dying, so this matter must be left to me, and it can only be done by me."

Jiang Wei smiled bitterly: "I'm really fucking stupid. I was often deceived by him when I was in Tianque. He caused trouble everywhere, but in the end I was always blamed, causing me to be punished by the elders. This time I was actually persuaded by him and escaped from Xin'an alone."

"Although Shen Li did not die in the end, and even entered the solo martial arts order again, I really regret that I listened to him and left him alone in Xin'an. I didn't even take care of the living people. How can I take care of someone who is dead, right?"

"Old man, don't blame me for talking too much. I really don't know who to say these things to."

Jiang Wei lowered his head slowly and looked at the three cigarettes that were about to burn out.

"I'm not a smart person, but don't worry, I won't embarrass the sect Wu Xu. I will definitely bring back a few heads from the Eastern Palace, as if I helped them pay the money to bury themselves here."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Wei suddenly raised his hand and grabbed it at his side. A blade appeared strangely from the twisted air and crashed into his palm.

Buzz.

The restlessness of the mechanical heart brought up a noisy strong wind, and the cigarette butt stuck on the ground burst out with the last bright flame, and the remaining embers drifted away in the wind.

Jiang Wei's eyes flashed with intense ferocity. He clasped the sharp blade that he wanted to pull away with his right hand, put his left hand on the ground, twisted up, and swung his leg to hit the person on the shoulder.

The attacker received a heavy blow on his shoulder, his body shook for a while, he decisively gave up and threw the knife, and retreated in confusion.

Jiang Wei, who had just landed on the ground and stood firm, was already following him. He was as fast as a sharp arrow and rushed straight in front of the opponent. He dropped his shoulders and elbows, lifted his back with his chest in his chest, and held the disarmed long knife in his right hand. , hitting the opponent's chest hard with the thick blade.

The sound of mechanical bones breaking is far clearer than that of human bones.

The person's body was thrown high into the air, and Jiang Wei grabbed his ankles and dropped him heavily, causing the chest to collapse. It was horrifying.

Jiang Wei turned his wrist, and the long blade touched down, piercing through the twisted and broken sternum of the opponent, and resisted the mechanical heart that was about to enter the overclocking.

The drum-like heartbeat suddenly stopped and became inaudible, and I didn't dare to beat wildly anymore.

"No wonder you were able to escape Xin'an alive. It turns out that you have tempered a martial art and a body forging. Now among the remaining sects and martial arts in the Ming Empire, you should be the strongest one, right?"

Sarcastic laughter sounded behind him, and Jiang Wei turned around suddenly.

I saw the other party standing beside Su Ce's grave at some point. He leaned down calmly, picked up the cigarette box on the ground, took one out, knocked the box firmly, lit it and bit it into his mouth. .

Then he picked up the old dragon's mouth altar. Seeing that the mud seal on the altar mouth was not open, a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"But you, Xu Si, are the only one who dares to say that you want to seek revenge from the East Palace. Isn't it a bit too presumptuous? Even if you are a liar, you can't say such big words, right?"

The man tore open the mud seal, took a deep sniff, and looked at Jiang Wei with an intoxicated look on his face, squinting his eyes.

"Oh, by the way. My name is Jin Wei, Liu Tao, Bing San."

The other party introduced himself to his family, but Jiang Wei turned a deaf ear and said coldly: "I don't care who you are, you'd better take your dirty hands away now and put down your things in a good manner!"

"They are all good things. Wouldn't it be a waste to leave them to a dead person? But since you asked, I'll give you a favor."

Jin Wei loosened his five fingers, and the wine jar fell to the ground and broke. The splashing wine left a water mark on Su Ce's tombstone.

"You asked me to put it down, so I put it down. It's a courtesy. Shouldn't you give me a favor?"

Jin Wei leaned his arm against the tombstone, holding a burning cigarette between his right fingers, and tapped Jiang Wei.

"We didn't come to this place where no one lives today for you. So you just put down the knife and listen to my arrangements honestly. When things are done, I may be able to spare your life."

Jiang Wei, whose eyes were red as soon as the wine jar fell to the ground, had no intention of talking to the other party at all. His right hand holding the knife pierced down.

Puff!

The blade penetrated the heart of the machine, broke through the whole body, and penetrated deeply into the ground.

"A homeless stray dog, he's still got quite a temper."

Jin Wei slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, and calmly watched the scene through the curling mist.

"Since you can't understand human language, then go down and become a wandering ghost with them."

Zheng!

The fierce wind whistled behind him, and the strange audio exploded in his ears, like a soul-devouring devil's voice, drilling straight into Jiang Wei's brain.

Jiang Wei frowned, without any dodging movements, and the knife in his hand collided head-on with the axe blade wrapped in ice.

Crack!

The exploded fire point was instantly extinguished by the dissipated cold steam, and the broken blade edge flew with ice chips.

The soldier who was fighting against Jiang Wei had white eyebrows and hair, and was surrounded by a pale fog, exuding a bone-chilling coldness.

He smashed the weapon in Jiang Wei's hand with an axe, thinking he had the upper hand. The overclocked mechanical heart suddenly burst into a louder and sharp sound, and the hand axe chopped towards Jiang Wei's neck.

"Martial Order of the sect? Today I will make you completely extinct!"

Bang!

There was a dull sound like a blunt weapon hitting the flesh, and the dazzling scarlet splashed and was frozen into a piece of ice crystal.

The pupils of Baimei Bingxu trembled, and the joy in his eyes suddenly solidified.

Jiang Wei, who was unarmed, did not dodge or evade, as if he did not know any martial arts at all. He just put his elbows on his ears and resisted the axe blade with his body, allowing his arm to be torn apart, leaving a shocking bloody wound and exposed white bones underneath.

Five stiff fingers wrapped in frost stretched into the white cold air that covered his eyes, grabbed the opponent's hair directly, rushed forward, used his head as a hammer, and smashed it hard.

Crack!

The soldier's cervical vertebrae broke with a sound, and the mechanical bone with a cold light pierced directly from the side of his neck!

The mechanical heart is not broken, and the soldier is not dead.

At such a close distance, the white-browed soldier also gave up the idea of ​​holding the weapon. The frantically pumping mechanical heart set off an even more violent ice and snow storm, completely submerging Jiang Wei's figure.

Without a moment's pause, the cold fog that was enough to freeze an ordinary person to death instantly continued to emit the muffled sound of fist bones colliding, suppressing the mechanical heart to buzz weaker and weaker.

In the end, it was almost a whine, like a person begging for mercy in a humble manner.

The mountain wind passed by, blowing the fog.

Jiang Wei was covered with bloody frost all over his body. Although the wound on his left arm stopped bleeding, there were few pieces of good meat left. The rolled flesh was frozen white, and it looked necrotic.

He stepped on a broken mechanical body that was almost torn into pieces, and the mechanical heart in the palm of his right hand was still twitching and trembling.

Puff!

Five fingers clenched, flesh overflowing from the gaps between them.

"You have some skills, come on, and keep going."

In the distance, Jin Wei flicked away the cigarette butt with his fingers, clapped his hands, and spoke with a smile.

"We must make our Lord Wu Xu beat us until he feels comfortable and satisfied!"
