Killed 99 times

Feng Shangqing stared at Xue Buji.I don't know how old he is, but he always looks like 27 or [-]. At any time, he is dressed in neat Taoist attire, with his hair neatly stuck on the back of his head, held by an ebony hairpin.

His eyes are like magnificent stars, his appearance is handsome and beautiful, but he is as cold as ice. Xue Buji's memories of being intimate and coquettish with him are all in his childhood. After the age of six, he rarely has the memory of playing with his master.But he respects and loves Master very much. Although he is cold on the surface, he knows that Master cares about him very much.

"Where did you learn the art of controlling snakes?"

"Tu'er saved a strange man at the foot of the Three Sacred Mountains last year. This strange man seemed to be half-human and half-demon, with a pair of golden eyes, and the pupils were straight like needles. To thank me, he took the snake-riding Art taught me."

What he said was true and false, it was true that he saved the golden-eyed stranger, and it was true that he was granted thaumaturgy, but all these were his experiences in his previous life, and the place where he saved people was not at the foot of the Three Sacred Mountains.

"Why didn't you tell the teacher?"

"I'm afraid that Master will blame me for being troublesome."

Feng Shangqing kept looking at Xue Buji, wondering if he could see that he was lying.Under that always perceptive and penetrating gaze, Xue Buji had no choice but to bite the bullet and not blink his eyes, otherwise the teacher would see through and cause more trouble.

Feng Shangqing looked at Xue Buji for a moment, and said slowly: "The giant snake in the cave is the snake demon who harmed the common people many years ago, and I killed it later, and the body was buried under the blue abyss outside the clouds. In the year of Zhenjiujiu in 81, the grievances of the dragons and snakes can be dispelled. I will deal with the bones, and I will seal up that cave so that no one will come in from there. You can't go there again."

Xue Buji obediently said yes.

He remembered the cold air he felt inside the snake's skull during the previous battle, it seemed that the cold air penetrated even the joints of the bones, and he didn't know if it would be harmful to the body.After thinking about it, I still press it for the time being.

Xue Buji prepared a small couch for Jiang Haixi, and told him some rules in the school, morning and evening, cleaning the court, and explaining everything clearly.

Xue Buji took him to look around the Qingyuan outside the cloud. This Qingyuan outside the cloud is a valley between the Three Sacred Mountains and Bailuya. From September to March of the next year, there will be air currents rising from the bottom of Bailuya. It's time to enter the valley.If you jumped off Bailu Cliff from April to August every year, you would have to fall to your death.Bailuya is the entrance, and there is another exit from Qingyuan outside the cloud, which is very secret and difficult for ordinary people to see.

There are two acres of cultivated land behind the courtyard, which is where the deaf-mute two servants do their daily farming. Anru couldn't be free, so he set aside a piece beside the farmland to grow some melons and vegetables.One of the two fields grew a lot of weeds, and the melons and fruits grew small. It seemed that the people who tended the fields were very careless.The other piece is well-groomed, and the fruits and vegetables are growing gratifyingly.

If ordinary people looked at these two fields, they would probably think that the one with weeds belonged to Anjou, and the other belonged to the deaf and mute.actually not.The deaf-mute second servants are rough-handed and clumsy, as if they are not used to rough work, and they are a bit cunning, they do things so-so, but they can get by. Before Anru started to grow vegetables, Xue Buji and his master ate for several years Those small melons and fruits, vegetables with insect eyes.

There are also stretches of hills, rivers and wild forests in the valley, in which there are exotic flowers and fruits, wild animals, fish and birds.

It took two hours to walk like this, and it was only halfway through the valley.The days are long, Xue Buji is not in a hurry, he took his junior brother to have dinner, then went to see Fifth Uncle Bian, he was still sleeping, but his breathing was calm, so he should be fine.

At night, Jiang Haixi slept on the couch.Xue Buji also closed his eyes and fell into a dream.For some reason, he dreamed of the day when he had a big fight with his junior and parted ways.

In this dream, he could remember very clearly the expression on his junior brother's face.

That day, he hastily buried his master's body and escaped from the secret path with his younger brother.With a sigh of relief, the two fled to the foot of Shansheng Mountain, entered the town, bought horses, changed their clothes, and ran non-stop for six hours. I had no choice but to get off the horse, pat the horse's buttocks, and let the horse run westward. The two walked eastward along the Chuiyun River, and saw a ruined temple on the eastern hillside. It was already late at night. He ran wildly for his life, even though he had martial arts to protect his body, but his strength was exhausted, so he entered the ruined temple to rest.

The younger brother took the dry food, warmed it by the fire and handed it to Xue Buji.Xue Buji was at the time when he was heartbroken, his eyes were still red, he didn't have the heart to eat.He raised his head, gritted his teeth and asked his junior brother: "How much do you remember of the appearance and body of the eight people who besieged Master?"

"I remember most of it."

"Okay! Although they covered their faces, I will never forget the look in their eyes! Junior Brother, I'm going to avenge Master, will you go?!"

The younger brother was silent.

Xue Buji forcefully asked: "Junior Brother, why don't you speak? It's not because of you that Master provoked these people. Back then Fifth Uncle Bian died to protect you. Master avenged Fifth Uncle Bian by killing Wuyi in Nanjiang. Liu Tu was completely clean, but who knew that your travels were leaked. Since then, there have been no people who have assassinated you in Yunwai Qingyuan. Tell me, what is the origin of the enemy that your family has provoked? You can use so many masters Come to take your life?! The master is so tired..."

There was a lump in his throat and he couldn't speak.

Jiang Haixi's face was painful and ashamed: "You're right, Master was killed because of me. Senior brother, you are going to avenge him, are you going to find out and kill all those masters who surrounded him yesterday? "

Xue Buji nodded: "These people killed Master, I want them to pay for their lives!"

"Senior brother, I should have killed these people together with you to avenge Master. But it was the mastermind behind these people who killed my parents and kept sending people to kill me. Really my enemy. I... I..."

Xue Buji's face changed: "You want to find him, and you don't want to take revenge with me, right?"

"Brother, in fact, you and I have the same enemies, why don't you go with me to track down the person behind the scenes?"

"I want to take his life, but I will never let those who besiege Master!"

Xue Buji had other thoughts in his mind, the person behind the scenes is certainly hateful, but he only wanted to take the life of his junior, and these people who killed his master were the real murderers.

"You don't want to take revenge with me, do you?"

"I will avenge my master, but I must first avenge my parents." Jiang Haixi's eyes sparkled, "Brother, I know you will definitely call me ungrateful. If Master hadn't taken me in back then, where would I have been in Jianghaixi?" My life has survived until now. This time, Master was also killed to protect me. But, my parents... my parents..."

He closed his eyes, tried his best to restrain his emotions, and continued: "Senior brother, did I tell you that I was young at that time, and I had a strange disease, and I always had headaches. My parents consulted many doctors , couldn’t be cured. So they took me to find Fan Wugeng, a genius doctor in Jiuhe Village.”

Hades wants you to die on the third watch, how can you live until the fifth watch.This Fan Wugeng has superb medical skills, he can live and die with human flesh and bones, and even changed his name to Wugeng, which means "what is Yan Luo afraid of, save his life until Wugeng".

"Fan Wugeng has two apprentices, the elder one is Guan Zhongji and the younger one is Fan Li, the daughter of Fan Wugeng. Seeing that I was young and deceitful, they coaxed me into crawling on the ground and learning to be a dog." Yell, I foolishly did it.

Later they asked me to call them father and mother, but I disagreed. I only have one father and mother, so why did I call them father and mother?Seeing that I did not follow suit, they beat me up.I screamed in pain, and brought the genius doctor Fan Wugen over. He thought I was noisy and asked me what was wrong. I told them all, but he insisted that I was lying. His precious apprentice and precious daughter would definitely not be like this.

At that time, I was angry and aggrieved, and seeing my mother standing silently, letting Fan Wugeng scold me, I was angry at her for not defending me.Fan Wugeng took his disciples away. My mother saw me crying and asked me if I was in pain. I said, "I don't cry when I'm in pain!" 'Oh, I cry because I feel wronged.I felt resentful and didn't want to talk to my mother, so I went to bed early alone and wiped my tears under the quilt. At that time, I really felt that I was the most pitiful and miserable person in the world.

I woke up in the middle of the night, but I heard my mother crying softly, and said to my father: "I know he feels wronged."In fact, I was more angry and wronged than him. Even if my child made a mistake, it would not be Fan Wugeng's turn to reprimand him.Alas, but we have something to ask of him, so we can only bear with it...Qing, I'm so angry!Hate it!It's all useless for me as a mother, I can't protect Xi'er! Father took mother into his arms and coaxed; "Okay, we will leave immediately after Haixi's illness is cured."At that time, our family of three will roam the world and be at ease, okay? 'My mother put him to sleep, but my father didn't sleep. He sat alone under the lamp and sighed. Then he took out our family's Douhai sword manual and looked at it over and over again.I heard him muttering to himself dejectedly; "Jiang Fanqing, Jiang Fanqing, you are so useless!"One, he can't carry forward his ancestor's swordsmanship, and two, he can't protect his wife and children from being wronged. What kind of a man is he who lives so aggrieved! '"

Tears flashed in Jiang Haixi's eyes, and he continued: "When I woke up the next day, I told my parents that I didn't want to be treated anymore, so I begged them to take me away. They thought I was having a temper tantrum, but actually I heard When they talked, I realized in my heart that my parents had been wronged much more than me. At that time, I swore in my heart that I would definitely stand out in this life and not let my parents suffer any more grievances. I don't know... I don't know... ...They left before I grew up. I regret it so much! It hurts so much! I hate it so much! Brother...I have to avenge this revenge!"

After hearing this, Xue Buji asked: "So, you have made up your mind not to go with me?"

Jiang Haixi lowered his eyes: "Brother, I'm sorry."

Xue Buji immediately drew out his sword and slashed towards Jiang Haixi's right hand Tejin.Jiang Haixi didn't dodge or dodge. After receiving the sword, his wrist trembled, the dry food in his hand fell to the ground, and blood snaked down the long sword.

"You don't want to avenge Master, that's fine. From now on, don't let Master teach you the sword skills again!"

"Brother..." Jiang Haixi's voice trembled slightly.

"Don't call me Senior Brother!"

Jiang Haixi was silent for a while, then said softly: "Okay, from now on, I will not use the Wind Chasing Sword Technique again. Master...Brother Xue, I hope you will take care of yourself."

He clutched his wound, turned around and left in the starry night.

Xue Buji woke up from a dream, covered in cold sweat, glanced at Jiang Haixi who was sleeping on the couch, covered his face, and tears of guilt fell into the palm of his hand.Later, when Prime Minister Vajra was about to kill him, he asked one last question: "When you fought with my brother, did he use the left-handed sword or the right-handed sword?"

Vajra Prime Minister laughed loudly: "You are his senior brother, don't you know that he wields a sword with his left hand? You are so confused as a senior brother."

How confused!Xue Buji did many mistakes in his previous life, and the one he regrets the most and the most stupid is picking on his junior brother's tendons!He re-learned his left-handed swordsmanship, and suffered a lot. If his right hand hadn't been disabled, maybe he wouldn't have died later!

Xue Buji felt pain and regret.
