The meditation room is brightly lit.

Originally afraid of disturbing Master Xuanku's sleep, only a small lamp the size of a bean was lit in the room, but now that he has woken up, a little novice lighted a few more lamps under the orders of the two old monks staying in the room. Oil lamps illuminate the room brightly.

So when Qiao Feng walked into the door, Master Xuan Ku who was leaning on the bed gave him a straight look.

"..." Qiao Feng paused, and under Master Xuanku's calm gaze, he called out with some difficulty:

"...Master."

To his surprise, Master Xuan Ku didn't ignore him as before, but nodded with a smile. Although his complexion was still a little pale, he was much stronger than before taking Ziyang Pill.

He waved to Qiao Feng: "Feng'er, come, come to me."

Qiao Feng didn't know why, and he didn't want to go against his will, so he took two quick steps and sat down in front of the bed:

"Master?"

Master Xuan Ku didn't respond.

He just quietly stared at Qiao Feng's face, observed carefully for a long while, until Qiao Feng became more and more at a loss, and then suddenly let out a long breath...

"Brother Abbot, two junior brothers," Master Xuan Ku turned his gaze to Abbot Xuanci who entered the door after Qiao Feng and the two old monks staying in the meditation room, with a relaxed and confused look on his face: "Before ...It turned out that I was wrong. The person who hurt me...was not Feng'er!"

"What?" The three of them were all shocked when they heard this.

Among the two old monks, the one who was slightly shorter and fatter and more irritable asked repeatedly: "Senior Brother Xuanku, what do you mean by that?"

Although after the testimony of Yin Liting and Duan Yu, all the monks in Shaolin believed that Qiao Feng might not be the one who injured Master Xuanku, but what is the explanation for the statement of "admittedly wrong"?

It would be fine if only Master Xuanku admitted his mistake, but the little novice Qingsong who served beside him also "admitted" Qiao Feng before, could it be just a coincidence?

Anyway, the chunky monk himself didn't believe it.

Seeing this, Master Xuanku smiled wryly.

"Junior brother, don't say you don't believe it, even I myself, if I hadn't observed carefully under the open fire, I would never have believed that I would have mistaken Feng'er with the person who hurt me."

he said.

"Although the man's clothes are a little different from Feng'er's, but his figure is similar, and he also has a square face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, big mouth and big ears, and even the angle of the eyebrows are very similar."

Master Xuan Ku narrowed his eyes and tried hard to recall.

"At that time, I was preparing to rest in my room, so I only left a small lamp on the bedside. The light in the room was dim, and under the dim candlelight, his face could not be seen very clearly, so I saw him earlier today. Liao Feng'er, because he was very similar to that person in appearance, I was so sad that I mistook him for a while."

"It wasn't until just now, when I called Feng'er to my side and looked at him carefully, that I realized the difference between him and that person."

"Although the face shape and facial features are very similar, that person's appearance is much fiercer than that of Feng'er, and his temples are not as black as ink like Feng'er, but a little more gray and white, which is obvious. age."

"If you want to describe it, that person looks like Feng'er is ten or twenty years older..."

Master Xuan Ku hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly heard a "click" sound. He turned his head and saw Abbot Xuan Ci standing by the tea table with a horrified face. The teacup was brought down, fell to the ground and shattered into pieces...

"Brother Abbot?" Master Xuan Ku was puzzled.

Only then did Abbot Xuanci come back to his senses as if suddenly awakened, and proclaimed a Buddha's name in a deep voice.

"Amitabha! It's just a momentary carelessness, don't worry about it, Junior Brother Xuanku."

Abbot Xuanci's long eyebrows drooped slightly, and his face seemed to be as peaceful as ever. Master Xuanku didn't suspect him, so he naturally turned his attention back to Qiao Feng.

Seeing this, Song Qingshu raised his eyebrows and turned his head to meet Ye Gucheng's gaze...

It seems that Ah Cheng has also discovered it.

This master abbot may not be as calm as he appears on the surface.

Song Qingshu blinked at Ye Gucheng, but the latter's face was a little calm, and he didn't know what he thought of, so he didn't respond for a while.

Song Qingshu didn't care, and turned to look at Master Xuanku and Qiao Feng.

Qiao Feng was completely stunned at this moment.

An extremely absurd idea slowly surfaced in his heart, but he couldn't convince himself to believe it.

He pursed his lips tightly, his eyes fixed on Master Xuan Ku stubbornly:

"Master means that the person who attacked you may be my father... father's generation?"

It took Qiao Feng a lot of effort to change the word "father" that came to his lips into "parents".

Master Xuanku seemed to be hesitant.

"This... I can't be sure. It's just that the person looks very similar to you, Feng'er, almost as if they were carved out of the same mold."

If it is said that the two are not father and son, Master Xuan Ku himself does not really believe it.

but……

Although he knew that Qiao Feng was not the biological son of Qiao Sanhuai and his wife, but the so-called "son of an old man" sent to the Qiao family by Wang Jiantong, the former leader of the Beggar Clan, it would not be surprising if a biological father appeared at this moment.

But if that man was really Qiao Feng's biological father, why did he put himself to death?

Master Xuan Ku thought that although he didn't get along with Qiao Feng for a long time, he cared for Qiao Feng during that time, and he devoted himself to teaching martial arts, and never kept any secrets.

Not to mention that he had saved Qiao Feng's life when he was young.

Even if that person doesn't pay much attention to "a teacher for one day and a father for the rest of his life", even if that person is a Khitan as rumored in recent days, but with Qiao Feng as a bond among them, he shouldn't treat him as a parent-child teacher. Is it the killer himself?

Master Xuan Ku couldn't figure it out.

This is no wonder.

He didn't know what happened outside the Yanmen Pass back then, and naturally he didn't know how extensive it was involved and the deep-seated enmity, which was far from being easily resolved by relying on the father-son relationship between that person and Qiao Feng, otherwise why would that person try What about killing Qiao Sanhuai and his wife and framing Qiao Feng?

Compared to Master Xuan Ku, wouldn't the Qiao family and his wife have more affection for Qiao Feng?

Master Xuan Ku didn't know the inner key, so he couldn't think of these things, but Song Qingshu and Ye Gucheng had made some inferences before, so it was easier to think of some things.

It was only at this moment that Song Qingshu guessed that Ye Gucheng's face was calm just now, and he seemed to be in a daze, and what was the reason.

"Ah Cheng already thought of it?" He turned to look at Ye Gucheng.

The Lord Baiyun, who had regained his composure, looked sideways at him and nodded silently.

"If that person is Qiao Daxia's biological father, everything can be explained."

Ye Gucheng said in a deep voice.

Moreover, his words were not passed through sound transmission, but out of mouth, which instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the meditation room.

"What do you mean by City Lord Ye's words?"

Qiao Feng saw that Ye Gucheng seemed to have come to some conclusions, but his own mind was in a mess, and he really couldn't figure it out, so he couldn't help getting a little excited for a while.

Fortunately, he is still sane, even though he was emotionally agitated, he never made any excessive and rude actions, but his eyes were fixed on Ye Gucheng nervously and apprehensively, as if he was afraid of hearing something from him that he didn't want or didn't want. heard words.

Ye Gucheng looked back at him, his eyes still as calm as water.

"About the identity of the person behind the scenes and the purpose of acting like this, Qing Shu and I had some guesses before..."

Ye Gucheng's tone was unhurried, he first shared his and Song Qingshu's previous inferences one by one, and saw that everyone in the room looked thoughtful after hearing the words, and did not rush, waiting for everyone to recover from their contemplation , and focused all his eyes on himself, and then continued:

"In Qing Shu's and I's previous conjectures, there were always some ambiguities, such as the identity of the man in black, and why he was so obsessed with Hero Qiao... Looking at it now, if that man is really Hero Qiao's biological father, it would be a matter of course." There is a reasonable explanation."

"First of all, one thing is certain, that person may not...do not love Hero Qiao."

As soon as Ye Gucheng said this, he felt Qiao Feng's whole body tremble, and he raised his eyes to look at him incredulously, there was hope and struggle in those eyes, he wanted to believe but couldn't believe it...

Ye Gucheng felt a little sad for him.

Such a person who is superior in both martial arts and ability and character, if he had never met Qingshu, he would be qualified to be as famous as himself in everything, but because of the various circumstances of the previous generation, he is now in such a situation...

Ye Gucheng couldn't help sighing in his heart.

He lowered his eyes slightly, suppressing all the emotions in his eyes.

"If that person really made up his mind from the very beginning to frame Qiao Daxia, there is no need to wait until now."

"Qiao Daxia has been the leader of the Beggar Gang for eight years. During this period, he has accumulated a very high reputation in the world. If this incident did not start from the Beggar Gang, the rumors of his life experience that spread all over the world would also come from the Beggar Gang. The matter of Ma Dayuan is mixed in, how difficult is it to damage the reputation of Chief Qiao?"

"If that person planned to discredit Chief Qiao's prestige in the first place, and everyone shouted and beat him in the martial arts in the Song Dynasty, wouldn't it be easier to do it since Chief Qiao succeeded to the position of Chief, even if he has no reputation and no support to act at the right time? ? Why did you wait until he was betrayed and framed by everyone in the beggar gang?"

"It's not so much that he just made trouble, I'd rather believe that he just took advantage of the trend..."

Or should I say, this is a kind of "fatherly love" mixed with very complicated emotions, which is somewhat cruel, somewhat cold, and also has a certain sense of hatred for iron.

"'Since you still have unrealistic expectations for these hypocritical Song people, have experienced such betrayal and framed, and are still obsessed with trying to get back those false happiness in the past, why don't you let me cover all these fake beautiful surfaces? Stripping off, revealing the ugly but real inside to show you' Maybe that person thinks so... So after Qiao Daxia's "betrayal of relatives and relatives", he chose to add fuel to the fire, trying to clear the crime of killing his father, mother and teacher If it is imposed on him, he will completely lose his place in Song Dynasty martial arts."

"Maybe he thinks he can wake up the hero Qiao who still refuses to face 'reality'."

Ye Gucheng sighed.

"Although this feeling is cruel and distorted, I don't think his intention behind these actions is just to make Daxia Qiao lose his foothold in Song Dynasty's martial arts, and I'm afraid it's even more to make Daxia Qiao escape from the people of Song Dynasty who he thinks are 'hypocritical and despicable' Identity, get rid of all the shackles of the past, and truly return to the identity he should have as a Liao people."

"Of course, if this process is more tragic, and Qiao Daxia is more disappointed with Song Guo, Song Guo people, and Song Guo Wulin, and if it brings some heavy losses to Song Guo Wulin, he will be more happy to see it happen."

That's... a really contradictory person.

On the one hand, for nearly 30 years, he missed countless excellent opportunities to recognize Qiao Feng and his son, and allowed him to grow up as a Song Dynasty martial arts hero under the upbringing of Song people. During the time, he broke Qiao Feng's seemingly happy life with his own hands.

On the one hand, after Qiao Feng's life was ruined by other people's tricks, they added fuel to the flames and took advantage of the chaos to make his situation even more difficult and embarrassing...

It is difficult for Ye Gucheng to define his feelings for Qiao Feng in terms of love or not.

Or maybe, 30 years ago, outside Yanmen Pass, with the innocent tragic death of his wife and companions, that man had already given up all his emotions and rationality. Over the years, he had been lurking secretly, only living for revenge...

Ye Gucheng suddenly didn't want to guess what that person was thinking.

Feeling inexplicably melancholy in my heart, I heard Song Qingshu next to me suddenly drink softly:

"who?"

Ye Gucheng heard the sound and in a blink of an eye, he saw that the people around him had already flew away, and in an instant he was fighting with a masked man in black who looked familiar!
