Biography of Xi Shan

The place where Sun Lifeng's accident happened was only two days away from Xishan Mountain. Lu Zhen and the three of them rushed day and night non-stop, and arrived at the inn where the accident happened at noon the next day.

The scorching sun was approaching noon, but there were only two or three guests eating in the inn.The shop clerk was sitting on a chair in the corner, muttering sullenly, seeing the three people enter the door, he quickly stood up in surprise, and accidentally overturned the chair in a panic.

Xiao Er lifted up the chair, leaned closer to the three of them obsequiously, and seeing the extraordinary demeanor of the three, he asked with an even more enthusiastic smile, "Are you going to stay at the hotel or have dinner?"

Zheng Baishui looked around calmly.

Lu Zhen said: "Hello, little brother, may I ask if any major events have happened here in the past two days?"

The shop clerk curled his lips when he heard the words, and said with a tusk: "What can be a big deal, at most the business will be bad." After he finished speaking, he laughed again, and said quickly: "But it's because the weather is hot, and everyone doesn't want to Going out is not the problem of our small shop, the food and accommodation here are very good."

Lu Zhen said: "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else. In fact, we are disciples of the Xishan School. Recently, we received news that my junior brother was killed here a few days ago. I don't know if it's true or not, so the headmaster sent us to investigate. "

Zhou Ce interjected, "A fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl came with him." After a pause, he continued, "That girl has a bad temper."

Lu Zhen glared at him, then looked at the waiter gently.

The waiter in the shop stared at them blankly, with a solemn and dull expression.

"It's true that there is such a thing. The business of the store is cold because of this. It's just..." Xiaoer rubbed his hands and hesitated, "That thing happened for more than a month... to We don't know what's going on right now."

"You said it's been more than a month." Zhou Ce's eyes widened, "You tell the whole thing in detail."

Xiao Er glanced at the guests who were eating, and whispered: "Well, you follow me to the second floor, and I will show you the room where the incident happened."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Lu Zhen said out loud.

From the beginning to the end, Zheng Baishui did not speak, and only looked at the surrounding environment with a solemn and depressed expression.

The three of them arrived at the room where Sun Lifeng's accident happened, and the inside had been cleaned up, without the slightest bit of embarrassment and tragedy.

Xiao Er pointed to the ground beside the bed, and said: "Here, that guest died there, and he didn't know what happened at the time. He came to the hotel with a little girl, and it happened when he was downstairs." After a quarrel, the two entered the room and soon heard someone screaming."

Zheng Baishui pushed open the window, frowned and looked out the window.

"That's right, the window was open when we came in." Xiaoer said, "The guest died here, and the little girl has disappeared. Later, our shopkeeper reported the case, and the official also came. It’s just that I can’t find the little girl’s person no matter what.”

Xiaoer sighed: "I don't know if a thief crawled in through the window to do evil. I guess the little girl was also taken away. Hey, the business of the small shop is also bleak. I'm afraid it will be closed this time." Slightly."

Zheng Baishui looked around and said in a deep voice, "There is no trace of a fight."

Zhou Ce asked again: "Where is the corpse now?"

Xiaoer said: "Forgive me, we didn't know he was a disciple of the Xishan Sect at the time. After the incident happened, it was our shopkeeper who took the money and buried him hastily at Wushigang in the suburbs."

"Please take us there." As soon as Lu Zhen finished speaking, Xiao Er's face was pulled down, and when he saw Lu Zhen took out a silver coin and put it on the table, he immediately burst into laughter.

Xiaoer said repeatedly: "Don't worry, I'll take a few of you there." The shop boy hurriedly took the money and put it into his arms.

Wushigang is not far from here, but the location is remote, and the surroundings are messy, full of gravel and garbage.

Xiaoer took a look around, walked to a corner, said with a smile: "It's here, look at the following things..." Xiaoer showed a embarrassed look, obviously unwilling to get involved in this matter something happened.

Lu Zhen smiled kindly: "Thank you."

The waiter tossed the money happily, and walked back swaggeringly.

The three looked at each other in blank dismay, and the appointed man looked for tools to dig the soil.

Sun Lifeng's body was not buried deep, and it took only a moment for the three of them to work together to reveal a corner of his clothes from the soil.

The corpse was brought out, and the smell of the corpse was mixed with the smell of quicklime. The body had gradually rotted, and Sun Lifeng's expression was very painful.

The sky was overcast for a while, and it rained heavily without warning. The yellow plum season was coming to an end, and the rain still carried a hot and humid atmosphere unique to summer.

Zhou Ce was panting heavily, and looked at Sun Lifeng with complicated and resentful eyes.He had always had a bad relationship with Sun Lifeng, but deep down in his heart from beginning to end, there was a kind of friendship between brothers and sisters of the same school. There was no hatred at all, and there was only a contest of superiority and inferiority.

Now that Sun Lifeng died like this, it is very likely that he still died at the hands of Su Lingling.But all heroes in the world have heroic feelings, they are not afraid of death, they are afraid that death is not vigorous enough.If Sun Lifeng died under the sword of a master, he could still die in peace, but it happened to be such a thing as Su Lingling.

Apart from sadness, Zhou Ce has nothing but pity.

Lu Zhen bent down and examined Sun Lifeng's wound calmly.

Zheng Baishui stood aside, expressionless and silent.

"The wound has rotted, but it can be seen that it is not a sword wound, and there are no traces of fighting on the body. It should not be done by a master." Lu Zhen let out a deep breath, "Lifeng should have been defenseless at that time. , was killed."

It is self-evident who is the one who made the attack.

Zheng Baishui pursed his lips, and carried the corpse on his back, every step he took was as heavy as Mount Tai.

Zhou Ce couldn't bear it, and when Zheng Baishui passed by him, he comforted him: "Don't be too sad, people can't be resurrected after death."

Zheng Baishui stopped, looked at him silently, and said after a while: "I'm not sad, actually I'm not close to him, but he is my senior brother, I must respect him, when all the dust settles, I will naturally replace him He's looking for an explanation."

After Zheng Baishui finished speaking, he walked forward without looking back.

At that time, the shopkeeper buried Sun Lifeng's relics together, including his saber. Lu Zhen sighed and jumped down from the big pit to put away the relics one by one.

Zhou Ce murmured: "What's the matter with Zheng Boshui? He looks bitter and bitter. Uncle Su is so kind. If Zheng Boshui walks out like this, others will think that the Xishan faction treated him harshly."

Lu Zhen frowned: "Don't talk about it." Lu Zhen had a good impression of this Zheng Baishui. Zheng Baishui was a calm man who could hold his breath when he was in trouble.

Zhou Ce curled his lips disapprovingly, and reached out to take some of the relics in Lu Zhen's hand.

***

Su Fang didn't see her daughter for two days, and when she was frowning, a child from the neighbor's house came over and shouted before entering the door: "Madam Su, Hero Su is back, can he teach me martial arts? "

"What to teach?" Su Fang gave him an impatient look, and scolded: "What is it not good to learn Kung Fu? You have to learn from Xishan School. You don't know when Su Daxia will come back."

The child tilted his head: "But Daxia Su is already at the foot of the mountain, he should be here soon."

"What? Your husband is back?" Su Fang stood up in surprise, and hurried out.

As soon as he reached the front yard, he saw Su Qisheng walking towards him with a sullen face.

Seeing him coming back, Su Fang burst into tears for a while, and shouted out of grievance: "Qisheng, you are finally back, if you don't come back, we mother and daughter don't know how we will be bullied. "

Su Qisheng walked towards her with a face as black as iron, raised his hand and slapped Su Fang mercilessly, knocking Su Fang down to the ground, his face suddenly swelled like a steamed bun.

Su Fang looked at Su Qisheng in disbelief. Although Su Qisheng was obsessed with martial arts, he was pedantic and honest. He never beat women. Su Fang's family was in charge of everything big and small. Su Qisheng never said "no".

The child who reported the letter was stunned by fright, with a terrified expression on his face.

Su Qisheng looked at the child and said softly: "Go and play with Ah Bao, I'll let my disciple teach you martial arts later."

The child came back to his senses, carefully looked at Su Qisheng, and seeing that he was not angry with him, he immediately ran and rushed into the room.

After a while, the child came out of the room, holding a three or four year old doll in his hand. The little doll was chubby and dull, and seemed a little strange when he saw Su Qisheng.He called softly, "Daddy."

Su Fang covered her face and turned her head away, not letting Ah Bao see her face.

Su Qisheng smiled: "Listen to Brother Amao, Daddy will pick you up later."

Amao cheered, led Su Yubao, and bounced all the way to his home.

After the two children had left, Su Fang burst into tears, tears welling up, "Good Su Qisheng, you didn't go to find Liu Muyan to ask for someone, but came back to beat me up instead, are you still a man?"

"Shut up." Su Qisheng's stern face was very pervasive, completely opposite to his usual honest appearance, and he said angrily: "In order to go down the mountain to find Lingling, I sent Xishan Sect and a group of disciples I left them all behind, and now something like this happened, Lifeng is my most proud disciple, Lingling dared...how dared..."

Su Qisheng spoke incoherently for a while, and his fingers couldn't help trembling when he accused Su Fangshi.

Su Fang glared at her: "We Lingling wouldn't do such a thing. You don't even believe your own daughter but you believe what Liu Muyan said? What kind of ecstasy did he give you to make you only have Xishan in your heart?" Sent? Isn't our Lingling your daughter?"

"What kind of virtue is Lingling, you know it in your heart." Su Qisheng panted, "The good daughter you have taught!"

"You blame me?" Su Fang looked at him with a sneer, and said mockingly, "You only know how to worry about the Xishan sect and your disciples all day long, leaving us mother and daughter here halfway up the mountain and not coming for ten days and a half months Look at the last time, but now you throw all the responsibility on me?"

"You! You!" Su Qisheng was at a loss for words, unable to answer for a long time.

Su Fang saw that he couldn't speak for herself, so she crossed her hips and scolded in high spirits: "If you didn't let Lingling enter the Xishan School to learn martial arts, would Lingling become like this? Liu Muyan did not know what happened back then. I agreed, but you, a father, flatly rejected it, tell me yourself, how much have you done for the Xishan faction, and what have you done for our mother and daughter?"

Su Qisheng lowered his face, and said in a cold voice: "The sect master is kind and doesn't care about trifles. Although he is willing to let Ling Ling worship into the Xishan sect, I can't break the rules just because of his generosity. Besides, he just took over the sect master that year. The position is not long, so I can't be criticized because of my senior brother."

Su Fang stomped his feet angrily: "You old pedantic!"

Su Qisheng said with a straight face, "Anyway, Lingling has caused a lot of trouble this time, so she should be imprisoned for a few days. When the truth is found out, the head of the house will naturally return her innocence."

Su Fang said bitterly: "If you had been the head of the sect back then, it wouldn't be like this now."

"Shut up, is this something you can say?" Su Qisheng's face darkened again, "The head junior is better than me in martial arts and in dealing with people in the world. There must be nothing wrong with giving him the master's autobiography position. I just need to assist him well and carry forward the Xishan faction."

Su Fang was speechless and could only lean against the wall with a wry smile.

Su Qisheng sighed solemnly, and said sadly: "I'm just sorry for Feng'er. He has been by my side for so many years, and I have watched him grow from being unable to hold a sword steadily to the present. Don't worry, Feng'er, when the real culprit is found, why not?" Master will avenge you with his own hands, so as to comfort your spirit in heaven."

Su Fang restrained her face and said in a low voice: "If... I mean if, it's really Lingling..."

Su Qisheng glared at him suddenly, his eyes were as sharp as ice knives, and the killing intent in them was self-evident.

Su Fang's body trembled, and he said hastily: "I'm just talking casually, Lingling dare not, dare not."

Su Qisheng came back to his senses, and nodded lightly: "You think about it carefully, I will go to see the head now and apologize to him in person."

Having said that, Su Qisheng still felt sorry for his daughter. He had heard about Su Lingling outside. Apart from the matter of Wujizong, Su Lingling had caused many troubles.However, Su Qisheng believed that, as Su Fang said, Lingling did not dare to commit murder, let alone Sun Lifeng was her brother.

But before Su Qisheng saw Liu Muyan, Lu Zhen and the others had already returned to the Xishan School with Sun Lifeng's body.
