storyteller

Some women are very beautiful. This kind of beauty is not the beauty of desire as a woman, but the beauty of extinguishing desire.

This kind of woman can't see gender, can't see love and hate, and has a sense of admiration.

Because it's not like a human being.

But this kind of beauty will not only make people lose their vigilance, no matter men or women, they will involuntarily want to stand on the same side with her, as if facing a god.

Qiu Xinsu is a god, the god who protected Hua Yuye 20 years ago, and now there are still people looking up to her.

There are two such gods, Qiu Xinsu and Sun Qiaoniang.Burning red, pale white.

Plain people, plain clothes, plain names.

As soon as her name was heard in the rivers and lakes, she carried a refined beauty.

But soon, the white clothes became murderous because of the sword in his hand.The white clothes like a spirit banner are even more frightening than the fierce ground-breaking whip.

Only then did people know that this beauty, the sword on her body is used to kill people, not just a symbol of the world.

When men choose women, they have always been divided into quack women and ordinary women.But a woman who kills cannot be selected.

After hiding in the Jianghu, the bloody scars she brought to the Jianghu gradually healed, and the storyteller gradually only talked about her eyebrows, her figure, her ups and downs, and the story that she didn't know the truth.

Even the fierceness of the murder has become an embellishment on the beauty.

Now this woman is also beautiful.

The years have brought charm and maturity to Jianghu women and ordinary women, making them bow to suffering and become tolerant and peaceful.But it made the murdering woman colder and more adept at killing.

From the very beginning, Kong Ting stared at the sword in this woman's hand without blinking, and he didn't dare to be negligent.

Qiu Xinsu's sword has reached its peak, and there is no chance for him to be negligent.

She didn't come to negotiate, and she wouldn't be like Qiu Lingfu, because she didn't understand the root cause, she would go every step of the way.

Her goal is very clear, her trip is to kill people.

But now she stopped the sword in her hand, allowing Kong Ting to breathe.That's why he had the opportunity to find that his hands were shaking.

He had never seen such a clean and pure murderous aura. This murderous aura was integrated with her elegant and treacherous swordsmanship, forming a school of its own.

Kong Ting was a rigorous and meticulous person. He had seen this set of swordsmanship from Qiu Lingfu, and since then he has often pondered this set of martial arts so that he can handle it when he meets him again.

But Qiu Xinsu's sword revealed the cold and chilling meaning honed over the years. From her determination to kill him to pointing the sword at his chest, it was only an instant.

Those so-called coping methods, the fear of not dying comes faster in the mind.At this moment, he was dripping with cold sweat, feeling that his soul had already wandered from the underworld.

There was a commotion outside the door, it was the sound of Kongquebin's disciples going upstairs.

There are no outsiders in this inn except the disciples.

"Don't come in." Duan Jingzhe ordered, "All of them are ten feet away."

The disciples outside the door made eye contact with each other, then obeyed the order and waited outside the door.

Qiu Xinsu said: "I put you last because I know you are the hardest to kill."

As long as Qiu Xinsu's sword stops, her weakness will be fully exposed.Duan Jingzhe knows everything.But even if he has countless thoughts in his heart, it is probably this calm and composed gesture.

The shirt on his shoulders was stained red with blood, but he still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't feel pain or death.

"Senior Qiu and Young Master Qiu really think differently. He wants to kill me first, so that there will be less obstacles."

He laughed again: "But seniors are smarter. If you kill me later, Qiu Lingfu will be poisoned later, and you will live a happier life."

Qiu Xinsu didn't take the sword away from Kong Ting, but said: "Bring the antidote, in exchange for your brother's life."

Duan Jingzhe expected the first half of her sentence, but never expected the second half.

Duan Jingzhe just paused after hearing the word "elder brother", with an unnatural expression on his face.

But looking at Kong Ting, looking at his old and ugly mask for a long time, it seemed that he heard something funny: "My brother?"

Qiu Xinsu glanced at Kong Ting coldly.

Kong Ting panted and forced a smile: "My name is Kong Ting, not his brother."

Qiu Xinsu said: "The Kong family will not have such waste."

Kong Ting was not angry, and he was not in a position to be angry at this time.

He laughed at himself: "Based on Senior Qiu's martial arts in recent years, I am afraid that [-]% of the sect masters today would be useless in front of Senior Qiu."

Qiu Xinsu said: "The meridians are stagnant, not born for martial arts, isn't it the characteristic of your Duan family?"

Qiu Xinsu looked at Duan Jingzhe: "Even if you practice hard day and night in winter and summer, you are still a waste. Even if you plot tricks and try your best, you are still a waste."

Duan Jingzhe's expression didn't change, he just smiled.But that smile seemed to be a habit, a habit made for such insults.

Kong Ting glanced at him, and slowly said: "At the beginning, my grandfather met a county magistrate in Taiping Town, and talked happily for three days. One month later, my grandfather betrayed Kongquebin. Three years later, the Kong family and Duan family dozens The friendship of sharing weal and woe for years has been completely broken. I don’t know what kind of relationship this little county magistrate named Xu Yu has with seniors. I became an orphan and a waste in Kongquebin, maybe I owe it to seniors.”

When a person dies, he will be gradually forgotten by the world.

Can't see, can't hear, can't touch.Everything is telling those who miss him: he is dead.

But hearing that name occasionally, hearing other people's mouth about his past, is like receiving a letter from him.

Having a letter means that the ties are broken, and the fate is not over.

That is an extremely weak fate that has gone through untold hardships and passed through the two worlds of Yin and Yang.How not to cherish?

Qiu Xinsu looked at Kong Ting for the first time. This glance was like stroking the letter paper, feeling the disappearing temperature on it.

Duan Jingzhe suddenly said: "Whether it's trash or not, you won't get the antidote if you kill him or me. Duan is not very famous in Jianghu. Senior Qiu may not know me well, but I am different from my father. , Whether it is someone else's life or mine, it is worthless to me, as long as seniors do one simple thing, the antidote will be given to you."

Qiu Xinsu didn't even think about it: "I won't do it."

Duan Jingzhe said: "If Qiu Lingfu is Mr. Xu, as long as he knows that I'm going to threaten you, I'm afraid he will end it on his own. This will save seniors' affairs. But Qiu Lingfu is different, he may not be willing to die for you. I will blame you, hate you, no matter how much I beg like a beggar, I have to find a way to live."

He laughed again: "A selfish person may not necessarily live happily, but at least he can do anything to survive. If he is selfish enough, he can still indulge in the pleasure of squandering money. Even if Senior Qiu really died, he would not Show up. Such a son is the most obedient, and will not let the seniors act in every possible way. Because the involvement between people will only make it difficult for each other to move forward."

Qiu Xinsu just looked at him with cold eyes. She can listen to nonsense, but never speak nonsense.

"But senior didn't expect that such a selfish person would still come to senior. And there is only one antidote. There is no antidote, and he wants to live. Do you think he is in pain?"

As Duan Jingzhe said, although Qiu Xinsu was still expressionless, she seemed to be able to sense that an iron chain was gradually being dragged into his hands.

And the other end of this iron chain is slowly binding Qiu Xinsu's heart.

He pretended to sigh: "This boy is really pitiful. It's good to develop such an annoying temperament, at least he will suffer less. But maybe the mother inadvertently revealed a little tenderness in the past days, He had to go through mountains and rivers for this. He didn’t understand anything, but he did everything, even at the expense of his life, which is considered courageous. But he didn’t expect that his favorite mother would ignore his own life... ...In fact, I admire senior, last time you watched Lord Xu die, this time you can watch Qiu Lingfu die, with a heart as hard as senior, this shocking secret will definitely be covered up to the end."

Duan Jingzhe knew in his heart that what he said hurt more than a sword.There is no reason in Jianghu to endure sword wounds for nothing. If he hadn't had the antidote in his hand at this time, he would have been stabbed into a cold dead body in an instant.

But what suppresses people in the world has never been martial arts attainments.

Qiu Xinsu was silent.Sometimes silence is not thinking, but suppressing one's own impulse to kill.

Duan Jingzhe knew.

But he had imagined his own death thousands of times, and he was so numb that he couldn't feel any timidity. Therefore, facing such a dangerous person, he could still make such a calm tone: "You should inquire about everything you need to know." Arrived? You killed all the people who should be killed?"

Qiu Xinsu looked into his eyes, which made people feel cold just by touching them: "There is still one more."

Duan Jingzhe smiled and said: "There is more than one."

Qiu Xinsu's expression finally changed a bit. She was wondering, but she didn't want to know the answer.

Duan Jingzhe was unhurried: "Senior Qiu, don't believe me. There are 30 county magistrates, twelve businessmen, fifteen ordinary people, and seven people from Jianghu. This is the person that Senior Qiu killed recently, right?"

Duan Jingzhe sighed: "Not enough, not enough anymore."

Although he sighed, his eyes were excited.

Qiu Xinsu still looked at him, she would show this look before killing someone, as if she was looking at a dead person.

But it was the first time that she wanted to kill someone but didn't do it for a long time.She has already realized that this time is different. If this person is going to die, she still has to work hard.

Qiu Xinsu said: "What is your purpose?"

Duan Jingzhe said: "Tell me what you know, and Qiu Lingfu will get the antidote immediately."

Qiu Xinsu still said: "I won't say."

Contin watched from the side.He noticed that there was no murderous intent in her utterance, she was extremely gentle, and the place she was looking at was not where Duan Jingzhe was, but the place in her arms that she could see from the bottom of her eyes.

This sentence does not seem to be said to Duan Jingzhe.

Duan Jingzhe said: "Senior doesn't understand what I mean, I have never been interested in dominating the martial arts. What I mean is, tell me what you know."

Qiu Xinsu finally looked at him again, his eyes brightened for a moment, as if a breath had been blown on the silent coals.

Duan Jingzhe smiled and said: "Smart, senior knows what I mean. I won't force Senior Qiu, Senior Qiu can think about it for two months."

"Two months?"

Qiu Xinsu knew that this time was not set lightly.

Duan Jingzhe was surprised: "Senior doesn't know yet? Xu Bichuan has found a poison treasure box for Qiu Lingfu, which can keep him safe for two months. If senior doesn't want to, he can choose to say goodbye to his own flesh and blood. But I suggest that it is best to kill him after two months, because living will be a hundred times more painful. Senior Qiu, don't blame Xu Zhuge, because I have always been considerate and thoughtful. "

When Duan Jingzhe said these words, it was like talking about a happy event, just saying it was enough to enjoy: "Qiu Lingfu is usually selfish, greedy for joy and afraid of pain, I really don't know what expression he will have at that time?"

Qiu Xinsu said: "Are you really not afraid that I will kill you?"

Duan Jingzhe smiled and said: "People in the world have too much misunderstanding about death, but I still keep a penis for myself, death can't threaten me."

"What can threaten you?"

She knew that the way to kill this man must be different from other people, and she couldn't kill him in the normal way-really kill him, not turn him into a corpse.

Turning people into corpses was something she'd always done, but for the first time she wished to actually kill someone.

Duan Jingzhe said to himself: "No."

In his words, there is a kind of ability of a literati to write, or the confidence of a chess player when he makes a move. It is a kind of confidence that can confuse himself and his opponent.

Qiu Xinsu froze his sword, pointed at Kong Ting: "Then it doesn't matter if I kill this person."

Kong Ting's muscles tightened, and he looked at Duan Jingzhe, but he wasn't asking for help.

Duan Jingzhe shook his head: "Of course not, I don't have anyone around me anymore, I need him to do the last thing for me, for example - send the antidote to senior."

Qiu Xinsu's eyes gradually lowered, and so did the sword.

"I'll come to you within two months. If I don't come, you don't have to embarrass him anymore, because I will come to kill you."

Qiu Xinsu came to kill him, which meant that there was no need for an antidote.

Duan Jingzhe smiled and said: "It seems that Senior Qiu is more ruthless than I imagined."

Qiu Xinsu didn't seem to hear anything, she turned around, tiptoed, her clothes fluttered like a dead man's spirit banner, desolate and cold, and then disappeared in an instant.

Kong Ting narrowly escaped death, but the first sentence asked: "Where is she going? Looking for Qiu Lingfu?"

He knew that Duan Jingzhe would understand.

Duan Jingzhe said, "Look for Ye Huihe."

Kong Ting asked: "Do you think she can't find it?"

Duan Jingzhe laughed and said, "I don't think Ye Huihe can cure this poison."

Since he smiled like that, he must have made sure of everything.Every time he smiles like this, there must be no deviation from what he expected.

So Kong Ting didn't continue to ask, but saw the injury extending from his shoulder to his back: "You should also find Ye Huihe, you are seriously injured."

"Are you afraid?"

Contin looked at him.

But when he saw the contemptuous smile on Duan Jingzhe's face, he knew what he was referring to.

Kong Ting smiled wryly: "Under such a sharp sword intent, it's strange not to be afraid. What about you? Why aren't you afraid of death?"

Duan Jingzhe's face was still contemptuous: "It's strange that there are so many Jiang Hu people who are not afraid of death?"

Kong Ting whispered: "People who are not afraid of pain are more likely to be injured, and those who are not afraid of death are more likely to die."

Duan Jingzhe looked at him leisurely, his eyes were very strange, it was the first time Kong Ting saw him so suspicious, hesitant, like looking at a flower in the fog.

Duan Jingzhe suddenly reached out to take off his mask, the movement was so fast that even before his hand approached Kong Ting, Kong Ting could feel the palm wind on his face.

It seems that Duan Jingzhe thought that Kong Ting would hide, and he also hoped that Kong Ting would hide.

But Kong Ting did not hide.

He just stood there majestically, with his back straight, without even a hint of panic.

Tick, tick.

Due to the sudden force on Duan Jingzhe's hand, blood flowed from the deep wound, dripping on the pale moonlight, like dripping on snow.

The vast red mist submerged the white snow.

It's like ink dripping on the paper, with the blood drop as the source, the rivers and lakes as the water, slowly spreading in all directions.

Kong Ting said: "To see if I am Duan Jinglan, it takes so long to tell?"

The house has not been lit yet, only the pale and desolate moonlight shines in, Duan Jingzhe's expression is also pale and desolate.

Seeing his appearance, Kong Ting slowed down his voice: "It stands to reason that even with a mask on, you can tell if I am him or not. How long have you not seen him?"

Duan Jingzhe was different from others, his soft voice made him suddenly alert.

He looked at him bitterly, and said coldly, "It's because he didn't see me."

Kong Ting was silent, because not all words could continue.

Duan Jingzhe suddenly said: "I want you to kill someone."

Kong Ting asked: "Who?"

Duan Jingzhe said: "Women."

Kong Ting shook his head: "I am not Qiu Xinsu's opponent among the three."

Duan Jingzhe said: "It's not Qiu Xinsu, it's Lie Yunxia."

Kong Ting thought for a while, but didn't accept it: "I won't do anything to someone who is important to Duan Jinglan."

Duan Jingzhe looked at him, it was the first time that he thought this person was so interesting, he smiled and said: "This is the first time you refuse my order. Are you afraid that you won't see my brother?"

Kong Ting said: "I am even more afraid of seeing him, but seeing him is sad."

Duan Jingzhe was a little angry when he heard this.But he knew it wasn't that he would be offended talking to Contin, but that they would inevitably, now and then, talk about his brother.

But he still spoke urgently and firmly, and broke down suddenly: "He won't be sad! They just met once when they were young, so why are you sad!"

Kong Ting looked at him: "Then why did you kill?"

Duan Jingzhe calmed down again, the cold light in his eyes was reminiscent of a wolfhound: "I will kill if I want to."

Wolf dogs are persistent and paranoid, whether they are wolves or dogs.A wolf is obsessed with killing, a dog is obsessed with loyalty.

Duan Jingzhe is both like a wolf and like a dog.

Contin realized that he had talked too much.

Duan Jingzhe gave the order again: "I will see her dead body within three days. Otherwise, you will see my brother's dead body."

Kong Ting didn't say a word, he had been silent too many times tonight, so before going out, he knew that Duan Jingzhe had been watching him.

He said: "If you use him to threaten me, I will naturally find a way to do it."

Duan Jingzhe smiled and said, "You are willing, aren't you?"

"Then are you willing?"

Kong Ting went out, only the pale and sad moonlight was left to accompany him in the room.

The eternal moonlight.
