knife cut mountains and rivers

After the Tiandao of Guoshilou was released, the honor and favor doubled, and he poured his great fairy furnace every day, and he was bound to practice an elixir of life.As soon as Lou Tiandao refined the medicine, the people in the capital panicked.

They couldn't help but look at the billowing black smoke from the eastern altar. No one knew what Lou Tiandao was doing. Every day, the sound of chanting sutras would reach the ears of the surrounding people.

Lou Tiandao made a calculation and wanted to find a boy and girl born on July [-]th. No one dared to ask Lou Tiandao why he wanted such a pair of children. Lou Tiandao would only say that the secret should not be revealed.

People from the National Teacher's Mansion went to carry out Lou Tiandao's order. Before Lou Tiandao wanted babies born on the [-]th of each month, but now it's hard to find babies. People dare not report to the household department for registration after giving birth, for fear of being found out. My child is gone.

It is probably for this reason that the National Teacher has relaxed the conditions. There are more than a dozen rosters of seven-year-old boys and girls born on July [-]th.All of a sudden, people who have such a child in their family seem to be sad overnight.In the past, the big fat boy was born as a sweetheart, but now because of the words of the national teacher, the boys and girls born on July [-] suddenly changed their taste. Holding the child is like holding a fire thunder. When the fire thunder explodes, the whole family is shocked To blow up to the sky.

The world is so chaotic, most places outside of Kyoto are still suffering from famine, but even if you starve to death outside, you can't turn your own children into an elixir of life.Those who could escape wanted to escape overnight, but there were too few of them.

The Liu family in Changle Lane is such a family. When they heard the news, they didn't have time to think about it.They had friends who were guards in the imperial court, and they all received the news earlier than others. The order was issued in the morning, and they packed up and were ready to leave in the afternoon.

But before they had time, just as they were about to go out, the door of their house was kicked open, and an adult with two strokes of beard led people into his house.

The master of the Liu family's scalp felt numb, and he recognized this man as a lackey of Tiandao of Guoshilou. His name was Cai Peizhao, and he was skilled in martial arts.

The man from the Liu family blocked his wife back, and the woman behind was so frightened that she hugged a seven-year-old boy tightly.

The man from the Liu family asked, "What are you going to do?"

Cai Peizhao shook out an official letter and said with a villainous face when he spoke, "Your child was born on July [-]th, and he is just seven years old this year." He turned his head to look at the little boy in the woman's arms, making sure The man didn't run away, and continued with a flick of his sleeve: "Master National Teacher invited him to be a guest."

The Liu family man said: "Be a bitch! Everyone knows that you are going to kill someone!"

"What are you talking about so badly?" Cai Peizhao said disapprovingly, "My lord is giving him longevity, a blessing that no one else can ask for."

The man from the Liu family picked up the ax for chopping wood, and said, "Don't even think about it!" In the past, he heard that some parents really gave their children to the national teacher in order to save their lives, but he was not such a person.Said: "If you want to move him, first step over my corpse!"

Cai Pei took care of such a father too much, it was too stupid, why not just hand him over, the couple can still live, Cai Peizhao sighed for a while, and said: "Take him down!"

All the subordinates were mobilized, they were all skilled in martial arts, the male master was not worth mentioning in their eyes.The man from the Liu family was kicked in the stomach, and before he got up again, he was punched again.He struggled to get the axe, but just as his fingertips were about to touch the axe, someone stepped on his palm.When he looked up, he happened to see Cai Peizhao. Cai Peizhao stroked his mustache and said, "Cross over your corpse?" Cai Peizhao ran over his palm hard, and the palm was bloody and bloody. His hand was almost useless.The man from the Liu family was usually a strong man, but he couldn't bear this torture, and cried out heart-piercingly.

The man from the Liu family only heard his son call him daddy!When he raised his head, he saw his daughter-in-law holding her youngest son and stepping back step by step. The daughter-in-law was tearful and covered her son's eyes. It was useless for her to retreat, and she would be caught sooner or later, but she could only retreat.

Cai Peizhao said: "Then I will fulfill you and give you a good time."

Cai Peizhao drew out his sword, and the reflection of the sword turned the man of the Liu family pale. The man of the Liu family was startled when he saw the sword, and he hugged Cai Peizhao's foot with his left hand, which was not stepped on. His action was really funny and awkward. , still without dignity, said: "Please, let us go, I have money, I will give you money, this family, I don't want any money, I am just such a son, your lord has a lot, just treat him Never seen me—"

With a slap, Cai Peizhao stepped on the chest of the man from the Liu family, spat a mouthful of thick phlegm on his face, and said, "Things without bones." He was tired of seeing them. It's really boring to kneel down and beg for mercy after being beaten twice.

Cai Peizhao was about to give the other party a good time, then he caught a glimpse of a person standing at the door.

It's really strange, I've never seen this person before, he was wearing black clothes and a bamboo hat, now it's neither raining nor sunny, most people wearing bamboo hats are sick.The bamboo hat covered half of his face, and it was impossible to see what he looked like.He was carrying an octagonal bag in his hand, as if he had just returned from shopping.

Cai Peizhao said, "Your relatives?" This strange man looked like he was visiting relatives.

The Liu family man was also stunned, he really didn't know this person.But at this moment, the Liu family man knew that everything was his life-saving straw, and when he saw the man in the bamboo hat, he began to scream hoarsely: "Young man! Help me——"

Cai Peizhao kicked the man from the Liu family to shut him up. He could see that the man in the bamboo hat was probably a chivalrous man. He didn't even pay attention to the double swordsmanship, and would be afraid of such a man in the bamboo hat. ?

"Don't meddle in your own business. The National Teacher's Office handles the case. Go back where you came from." Cai Peizhao deliberately brought out the name of the National Teacher Building Tiandao. Ordinary people just ran away when they heard the word "National Teacher", but this bamboo hat The man didn't, but drew out a knife instead. This is a short knife, only as long as the forearm of an adult man, and it doesn't look like the style of the Central Plains.

The subordinates at the side also looked fresh. It had been a long time since I saw such a short-sighted person wanting to fight Cai Peizhao.

Cai Peizhao smiled, he let go of the Liu family man's feet, and planned to meet this bamboo hat man.

Cai Peizhao flicked his sword and said, "You still have time to run, I will pretend that I have never seen you."

The man in the bamboo hat didn't run away, and the subordinates who watched the excitement felt even more fresh. They had all seen Cai Peizhao's kung fu, and he was considered a good player in the arena. He only lost one move with Lu Chuanbai in the previous competition in front of the imperial court. .Cai Peizhao is a lackey, and that is also the number one lackey.

The man in the bamboo hat didn't say anything, and didn't make any false moves, he just rushed towards Cai Peizhao with a knife in his hand.Cai Peizhao was startled, the speed of the opponent was too fast, he thought to himself that he had met an opponent today, and it was good, he hadn't exercised for a long time.

With a bang——

The two iron objects met in the air, and the opponent's plain knife was as hard as a rock. Cai Peizhao's arm was numb, but he still smiled and said, "There are two brushes..."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a crack, and a thin line appeared where the short knife cut, and his own knife broke from it, and fell to the ground with a click.

Cai Peizhao was taken aback. If it was a comparison of weapons, his sword was much sharper than the opponent's dagger, and the opponent was able to cut off his sword with one blow, not because of the dagger but because of the strength of the opponent.In the eyes of such people, weapons are not worth mentioning compared to real power. What is the origin of the opponent?

Cai Peizhao was not a brainless person, it was already too late for him to beg for mercy.The opponent's figure was extremely fast, and ordinary people had a downward momentum after using the knife. This gap was enough for the opponent to adjust his state, but he didn't have this extra movement.

Cai Peizhao still couldn't believe it, and the subordinates who watched the excitement around him were also completely stunned. It was too fast, only two tricks were needed, no extra tricks and no harsh words, only two knives.

Cai Peizhao looked down at his chest, and found that the other party didn't hurt his heart. He could kill himself with a single blow, but he intentionally missed his heart with a full palm. Was he playing with himself?

Cai Peizhao staggered a few steps backwards, and before he finished, the man in the bamboo hat aimed at his knee for the third time, the tendon of his shoulder for the fourth, and his wrist for the fifth.

There were five swords in total, the first two swords defeated Cai Peizhao, and the last three swords picked his tendons, turning him into a useless person.

The man in the bamboo hat moved so fast that none of Cai Peizhao's subordinates realized that they were going to help the boss. When they realized it was over, there was only a bloody Cai Peizhao and his painful hum.

The change came too suddenly, and it took only a short time from when they found the man in the bamboo hat to turning the situation around.

"Kill him!" A subordinate yelled, but his voice trembled a little.

The man in the bamboo hat didn't seem to hear it. He completely ignored these people, but glanced at the little boy in the yard. The man in the bamboo hat tilted his head and smiled.He smiled softly, giving people a strange sense of security.The man in the bamboo hat stretched out his right hand to cover his eyes, the little boy understood what the other person meant, and stretched out his hand to cover his own eyes.

The little boy buried his head in his palms, followed by his mother.Everything in the little boy's world is gone, only the sound of this small courtyard remains.He only heard the sound of the knife. For the first time, the little boy knew that the sound of the knife was crisp.Then came the screams, which were not so pleasant, and there was fear in the wailing.The little boy counted silently until he stopped at 56 dollars.

After listening to it for a while, he slowly looked through his fingers, only to see a patch of blood. He wanted to look again, but his mother covered his eyes.

The man from the Liu family looked at the wailing people all over the floor, completely ignoring the way the man in the bamboo hat was doing. It was almost like this when he raised his knife and dropped it.The people on the ground were deprived of martial arts, covered their wounds and couldn't help crying,

The men from the Liu family were grateful to the man in the bamboo hat, but his first impression was that he was terrifying. It was hard for someone with such skill not to feel scary.

The man in the bamboo hat didn't seem to notice the family of three, he walked slowly to the door.He moved slowly, the dagger had been put away, and he hadn't stained a drop of blood after a battle.The blood was slowly flowing on the ground, and he crawled slowly as if he had grown feet. He was about to stain his octagonal paper bag, and the man in the bamboo hat picked it up the next moment.

The man in the bamboo hat looked at the paper bag for a while, making sure that the contents inside were not wet, and then said his first sentence of the day: "The rouge from Liu Shaoji, fortunately."

After such a battle, he was only thinking about the rouge in the octagonal paper bag.

The Liu family man woke up like a dream, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you benefactor, thank you benefactor."

The lady of the Liu family gave him a wink, and the man of the Liu family thought of taking something to thank him. He was still looking through his purse, and he felt that giving all of his wealth to the man in the bamboo hat was not enough.

And the man in the bamboo hat tilted his head, revealing his sharp chin, and said: "If you want to leave, there is still time to go to the city gate." After speaking, he took his bag of rouge and walked away slowly.

The man from the Liu family held a purse in his hand, and before he could give it to someone else, he could only look at the other person's back in a daze.The man of the Liu family was pushed around by his wife before he realized that this was not a life-saving straw, it could really save lives.The man from the Liu family must seize this opportunity. He greets his wife and children, and regardless of the subordinates of the national teacher who are lying around at home, he must immediately go to the gate of the city that Engong said.

And the one waiting at the city gate turned out to be Ren Jianyuan, he seemed to be proficient in doing this, let the three of Liu's family get into his carriage, and then began to deal with the big brother guarding the city articulately.

Standing in the crowd, the man in the bamboo hat threw away the bamboo hat only after making sure that the Liu family had successfully escaped from the city. He walked into the crowd slowly, like a drop of water melting into the sea, slowly merging himself with the crowd.

From then on, a mysterious man began to spread in the streets and alleys of Kyoto. No one knew where he came from, and no one had seen his true face.He doesn't kill people, he just does things.The national teacher will suddenly appear when arresting people, and disappear suddenly after saving people.

The man in the bamboo hat said "The Rouge of Liu Shao Ji" was woven into the opera by the storyteller, and the "Rouge of Liu Shao Ji" was looted for a time.

Slowly, people named the man in the bamboo hat, the Rouge Knife.
