After the defeat in the battle against demons, Xie Jingming was brought back out of Xiushan by Bai Jinfei, and fell into a coma for three whole days before waking up.

The war had just ended, and the people of the Tinian Sect were very busy, with a lot of counting, sorting, and rebuilding tasks waiting for them.After Xie Jingming woke up, no one had time to talk to him. He was brought back by the right protector, and people were not very wary of him.In the end, he dragged his half-mutilated body around Chuxiu Mountain for a long time before he found Bai Jinfei who was instructing his subordinates to bury the corpse.

It's a pity that childhood friends reunite after many years of separation, and it turns out to be in a cemetery full of dead bodies.

Bai Jinfei was not surprised when he saw Xie Jingming coming over by himself, and even laughed.

He pointed to the corpses piled up on the flat ground, they were all the people who died in battle of the Tianning Sect.With a smile on his face, he spoke in a reproachful tone, as if he was talking about something as trivial as accidentally breaking a bowl: "Look at the good deeds you Wulin Zhengdao have done."

Xie Jingming's eyebrows were tightly knotted.He stared at Bai Jinfei desperately. After many years, the boy at that time has become a young man, his skeleton has grown a lot, but his eyebrows and eyes have not changed at all.Half is familiar, half is unfamiliar.So the person in front of him was split, the familiar half was smiling at him tenderly, and the unfamiliar half said like a snake, "Your martial arts are righteous", "Our Tianning sect".

So Xie Jingming was also split into two halves.Half of him wants to reach out to hug this person, half of him wants to pull out a knife and stab him into this person's body; half of him wants to say that you are still alive, and half of him wants to ask how you can live like this ?

Finally he said, "You're crazy."

Bai Jinfei was very calm: "No."

His subordinates were about to throw the stumped limbs and severed arms into the pit just dug, when Bai Jinfei saw him, he hurriedly said: "Don't be so hasty. Look around again, if you can get one more whole corpse, you can get one more."

He even jumped into the pit himself to help, pointing his back at Xie Jingming defenselessly.If Xie Jingming drew his saber and gave him a shot at this time, the Tianning sect might have to re-elect a right protector.However, Xie Jingming was so busy putting together his split self that he couldn't do anything.

Bai Jinfei crawled out of the corpse pit after finishing his work, and wiped the blood on his clothes nonchalantly: "How is your injury recovering?"

Xie Jingming stared at him without speaking.

Bai Jinfei said: "The owner of Wanai Valley personally healed your injury. There is nothing else but your left arm." He looked regretfully at Xie Jingming's suspended left arm, "Recovery is not a problem. It can recover, but the bone is cracked, even if it is healed, it will inevitably leave some sequelae. You are also good at wielding double knives, so it’s okay to fight a little, but I’m afraid it will be difficult to fight for a long time in the future.”

Xie Jingming was still making up pieces and didn't answer his words.

Bai Jinfei patted the dust on his body: "Let's go. Are you hungry? I asked someone to make roast chicken, let's go eat together."

The word "roasted chicken" touched Xie Jingming, and an indescribable expression appeared on his face.

As if he knew what he was thinking, Bai Jinfei smiled again: "I brought the cook who made the roast chicken back from the mountain. He has no other skills, but the roast chicken is better than my little mother's. When I was a child I thought Xiaoniang’s roast chicken was the best in the world, and no one could beat her. Only after I came out and met the world did I realize that I was a frog in a well.”

The split Bai Jinfei in front of him is no longer this half and that half, this half is getting bigger and bigger, the other half is being squeezed and smaller, and finally merged together, becoming the complete person in front of him.Xie Jingming himself was no longer this half and that half, he was torn into many pieces, and he was in a mess.

Bai Jinfei took two steps. Seeing that he was still standing still, he simply came over and took his hand, as he did many years ago: "Let's go. Don't worry, you will have enough food."

People are already strangers, and even the touch is a strange touch.

Xie Jingming was numbly dragged away by him, and when he reached a place where no one was around, he stopped suddenly, refusing to leave.

Bai Jinfei sighed as expected, and stopped.

Xie Jingming asked him, "Why?"

Why is this sentence too big to ask, because he has too many questions to ask, and he didn't know where to start.

The Shen family suffered annihilation, and all the family members including the servants were killed. Only Shen Jinfei and Shen Qingyang escaped the catastrophe by hiding in the stove because of their young stature.

The two surviving teenagers of the Shen family are only in their early ten years of age. They have neither extraordinary ability nor strong backing. If they want to seek justice, they can only ask the help of big figures in the world.At that time, the Xie family couldn't help at all.The Shen family brothers didn't even dare to stay longer in Xuanzhou, for fear that the murderer would come to silence them if they found out that there were two more slipping through the net, so they hurried on the road without even having the chance to say goodbye to Xie Jingming.

later?

Later, the murder case of Shen Xuanhua's family became an unsolved case.But Shen Jinfei and Shen Qingyang seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no more news from them.

Xie Jingming entered the Tianxia Martial Arts Hall. While practicing martial arts, he inquired about the case of the Shen family and the whereabouts of the Shen family brothers.However, it wasn't until he had completed his studies in the Tianxia Lunwutang, participated in the battle against demons and came to Chuxiu Mountain, that he finally met his old friend.My friend has become the protector of the Demon Cult.

Shen Jinfei had expected that Xie Jingming would ask.He said calmly: "The 'Yue' sword was not taken away by those who killed my family."

Xie Jingming was stunned: "What?"

Shen Cangming forged five peerless swords and gave them to his five children. As a result, when Shen Jinfei and the others arrived, four families were killed.Didn't the one who killed their family want to get the sword?

Shen Jinfei said: "My father regarded that sword as a treasure and hid it long ago. He even found someone to make a fake one to deceive people. The one that was snatched that night was the fake one."

Xie Jingming was at a loss.Intuition told him that Shen Jinfei would start from here, and that "Moon" sword should have caused many stories later, related to why Shen Jinfei and the others disappeared and why they entered Tianning Sect.

Shen Jinfei said: "In the past, everyone told me that our Shen family's sword is a treasure, and I didn't take it seriously. I used that sword before. When I was a child, I roasted sparrows and ate it. I used that sword to cut open the belly. It is sharp. Take advantage of it. But that's all. Why can't a sword kill a sparrow or a person?"

He changed the subject: "My family was killed, Qing Yang and I had nowhere to go, so we could only go to the big shots in the martial arts world and ask them to help us uphold justice. At that time, they really paid attention to it, and the three famous elders helped us together Investigate the case. Ji Lao, Yu Lao and Wu Lao."

Xie Jingming listened carefully.He had heard some of it.These three are indeed quite prestigious seniors in the arena.It's a pity that Ji Lao died in the battle not long ago.

"Before going to them, Qing Yang told me not to tell anyone that the real 'Moon' sword was not taken away. He has been like this since he was a child, and he is always very thoughtful about things. I don't think so, but I I still listened to him."

"They searched for more than two months, but found nothing. At that time, I was really anxious. For more than two months, I didn't have a good night's sleep. When I closed my eyes, I saw blood. Whenever I dreamed I dreamed that my aunt made roast chicken for me. I knew it was a dream in my dream, but I didn’t want to wake up, as long as I never woke up, but in the dream, when I ate the roast chicken, it would always turn into bloody human flesh. "He said terrible things, but his tone was flat, and there was even a slight smile on his face.

"Qingyang and I have nothing, no money, no power, and even no family. Even the food and the place to sleep are those big people who kindly took pity on us. I was afraid that they would not help us sincerely. I couldn't bear it. Stop and do the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life."

Xie Jingming held his breath.He faintly had a bad premonition.

"I told them that the 'Moon' sword is still in my hand. As long as they can avenge us, the sword will be a gift." Having said this, the smile on Shen Jinfei's face actually deepened.What he seemed to be talking about was not a painful memory, but some interesting story.

"After that, things changed completely. Guess what? In the past, those three respected elders always sat together to discuss clues, and they agreed to seek justice for us and take back the sword for us. But after that, they suddenly They don’t like to get together to join in the fun, and always come to us alone in private, pretending to say a few words about the progress of the case, and then start to inquire about the rarity of our Shen family’s sword. The three elders have come to justice one after another Zheng Zheng told us that it is not safe for the sword to be in the care of our two children, it is better to give it to them first and let them take care of it."

The three people mentioned by Shen Jinfei are all seniors respected by Xie Jingming, he couldn't help but said: "Maybe they really just want to take care of the 'Moon' sword..."

Shen Jinfei smiled and said: "Maybe. Who knows? I only know that I was worried that they didn't pay attention to investigating the case before, and I wronged them. When they knew that the sword was there, they let me understand what it is really careless. My I really couldn't figure it out at the time, I thought it was a bloody case involving the lives of more than a dozen people in our Shen family, but in their view, it was just the gain and loss of a sword?"

Xie Jingming really wanted to say something, but he couldn't.

"I stayed there for half a year, and a lot of ridiculous things really happened in that half year. Mr. Ji had someone tie up a few little thieves, saying that they were the enemies who killed my whole family. Those thieves really didn't practice very well. Looks like that, the figure looks strong, but the skill is comparable to that of a child in his early ten years. Heh. Just because I said who avenged me, I gave the sword to whom?"

Shen Jinfei lowered his eyes and was silent for a while.He seemed to be thinking about what else to say during those half a year.Then he gave a weary look.He was too lazy to say any more.

"After half a year, I've had enough. I don't want their help anymore. I want to leave, but it's not that easy. The case hasn't been investigated yet. I said I don't want them to investigate. Where are they going to save their face? Guess what?" How did I do it? I told Mr. Wu that I gave the sword to Mr. Yu; I told Mr. Yu that I asked Mr. Ji to keep the sword; I told Mr. Ji that the sword was taken away by Mr. Wu. Just like that, three days later, Mr. Yu and Mr. Wu had a fight; five days later, they broke up by themselves, the case was not investigated, and Qing Yang and I left! Come to Tianning to teach!"

He finished the past in a brisk tone.Those ridiculous days that came and went again and again were hastily ended by him with a few understated words.

What he said was not sad at all, but Xie Jingming, who heard what he said, seemed to have been removed from his front, and his whole body was covered with a layer of gloom.

He wondered what happened to Shen Jinfei during those six months?So he was torn into two halves again, one half was thinking desperately, but the other half didn't dare to think at all.Whether he wanted it or not, it made him so uncomfortable that he couldn't breathe.

It took him a long time before he asked, "Could it be that the Demon Cult can help you?"

"Yes! Of course I can!" Shen Jinfei said as a matter of course, "I not only checked my family's case, I also checked the cases of our Shen family clan in the past few years. Do you know what I have found?"

Xie Jingming looked at him steadily.

"For more than ten years, four of our five families surnamed Shen have been murdered. The first case was Shen Yujin's family. It was said that someone coveted the 'wind' sword in his hand, so they killed and seized the sword. What's the matter? That's all. Everyone was killed, and all the valuables in the house were taken away, including the 'Wind' sword. I don't know how this story spread, but it turned out to be a murder for the sword."

Xie Jingming was stunned.

"The second one, Shen Yilong, the 'flower' sword. This relative of mine is not a peaceful person. He took in more than a dozen concubines. The eldest wife couldn't stand it anymore. One night, he suddenly went crazy, and he and his dozens of concubines They were all chopped up, and then rolled up the belongings and ran away. The "Flower" sword was wrapped in the belongings. It turned out that the tigress coveted the "Flower" sword, lurking for many years, seizing the sword and killing people. Tsk, for A sword, from a flower girl to a yellow-faced woman, how precious is this sword?"

He paused for a while after speaking.

Finally he spoke again, his tone slightly lowered: "But this third and fourth case, it's really a case of seizing a sword and killing someone."

Xie Jingming worried, and asked: "Could it be that you have found an enemy?" Seeing that Bai Jinfei was staying in the Tianning Sect, and hearing what he said earlier, he thought that he must have not taken revenge yet.But hearing what he said, it seemed that he had found something.

"I found it, I found it two years ago." Bai Jinfei waved his hand, with a look of disapproval, he didn't even bother to say the name of the enemy, "I hung them on the copper cauldron that boiled water, and asked them Why do you want to kill so many people in my family? Do you know what they say?"

"say what?"

Bai Jinfei slowly showed a smile, and the hostility in his eyes could no longer be hidden.

"They said, so many people would not hesitate to kill and grab something, how could it not be a treasure? Tell me, how could it not be?"
