Chapter 521: Almost

Cowherd and Niu Er come from the mountains of Zhangjiajie at the junction of the two lakes, and are considered to be natives of the mountains. Their village is not very big, and the funeral and wedding rely on the help of the villagers, so except for those small things, as long as it is a funeral and a major event, no matter where you work, you have to rush back in advance.

There was once a villager who mixed very well outside, and looked down on these villagers in the mountains, and he would not come back if there was anything important in the village, let alone with the ceremony, etc., but his parents were still in the village, so when his father died, no villager was willing to help, even if he begged for a lot of money, no one answered, or the old village chief said a lot of things bitterly, he then understood, so he went door to door to apologize and plead, and finally let his father be buried smoothly. Since then, no matter how big or small the village is, the villager who is the boss in the city will come back as soon as possible, and he will be busy without complaining, and when his mother dies, nothing has happened before. But since then, the big boss has never returned.

This story has become the talk of many people, but it is not clear who is right and who is wrong.

As for the scimitar that Cowherd and Niu Er said they learned, they were taught by an elderly elder in the village, who was adrift outside when he was a child, and no one knew what he had experienced outside, and then returned to the village with a limp, and his parents and relatives were left. At first, he didn't say anything, every day was to smoke dry tobacco and drink soil tea and walk the dog in a daze to bask in the sun, this day has passed for almost two years, maybe one day this elder feels that he is a little unwilling to bring his ability into the soil like this. So he told the villagers that they wanted to teach the children kung fu, and the villagers were skeptical, so the seniors played a set of knife techniques and suppressed the villagers, and then the villagers sent the children to learn art, most of them with the purpose of strengthening their bodies. However, the seniors selected apprentices very strictly, and only twelve out of ten children of the same age in the entire village could be selected, and some of them were later not allowed by their parents to learn art with the elders, and they always felt that he was chattering.

Cowherd and Niu Er are the selected children, and they are the only remaining children who can hold on to the end, the elder lived to be ninety years old, and died without illness and pain, it was Cowherd and Niu Er who beckoned the villagers to bury him. Later, Niu Er and Niu Lang went out to work, and then a series of things happened, and they embarked on this road, these are all later words.

But now, it seems that Niu Er's life is coming to an end, and his skills are not as good as others and he finally lost to a cook, which makes Niu Er very unacceptable to this fact, you must know that he can go back to his hometown after doing this vote.

Now, all the work has been lost.

Niu Er stood up with difficulty, still holding the scimitar tightly, the master said, even at the last moment, don't put down the knife in your hand, because only by holding the scimitar tightly, you have a chance to live, obviously Niu Er believes in this truth more than Cowherd.

However, although he stood up, Niu Er no longer seemed to be Brother Lu's opponent, and with Brother Lu's strength, he could easily take Niu Er's life at this moment.

Brother Lu held the chef's knife that had followed him for many years, the tip of the blade was pointed vertically to the ground, and the blood on the blade was dripping to the ground, silent than sound.

Niu Er, who was covered in blood, was ready for the final life and death struggle, he didn't admit defeat but died in battle, Brother Lu was also ready for the final blow, there were many souls who died under his knife for so many years, and Niu Er was not too much, not to mention that he didn't want to know Niu Er's story.

But at this last moment, Brother Lu suddenly stopped, suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the hermitage, only to see that Sister Lu, who had been standing in front of the window on the second floor just now to watch the battle, was standing in the courtyard of the hermit at some point, and at this moment she looked at Brother Lu with very complicated eyes, as if she was telling something.

Brother Lu woke up suddenly, covered in cold sweat, because he almost returned to his past self, and the consequences were really unimaginable.

Brother Lu nodded silently to Sister Lu, then turned around, sighed at Niu Er and said, "Let's go."

Niu Er, who was already holding the heart of death, was stunned, but he didn't think much about it at all, and rushed in front of Brother Lu without hesitation. He didn't have the slightest doubt that the man in front of him was a trick, because there was no need at all, as long as he wanted to kill him, he would die here tonight.

Over there, the Cowherd who was entangled with Chang Baji was about to finish scolding Niu Er's eighteenth generation ancestor, but he didn't know that it was also the eighteenth generation ancestor who scolded him, seeing that the big fool finally came back to his senses and ran away, and the Cowherd was no longer entangled with Chang Baji, otherwise if Niu Er didn't die, he would have to die.

Therefore, the cowherd smiled at Chang Baji, turned around and ran away, he was very desperate when he was fighting, and he was also playing with his life when he was running, nonsense, if he didn't run and wait for death.

Chang Baji hesitated again and again, but in the end he didn't chase him, if he wanted to chase him, he promised to take down this man, but these are not the most important things, the most important thing is to protect the safety of Qin Sheng and others, so Chang Baji didn't chase him.

Coming and going, the alley, which was extremely lively and dangerous one second, returned to quiet the next second, as if nothing had happened.

Chang Baji quickly returned to everyone's side, Qin Ran only let go of Qin Jing at this time, and let Xia Ding take care of Qin Jing first, she hurriedly ran to Qin Sheng and Lin Su, at this moment she was most worried about Qin Sheng, nothing was more important than Qin Sheng.

"How is it, where is the injury, is Yan serious?" Qin Ran asked anxiously while hugging Qin Sheng.

Of course, Qin Sheng behaved very energetically and said, "Sister, don't worry, there is nothing at all, it's all a minor injury."

Qin Ran didn't know what to say, all this happened too suddenly, no matter how dangerous the process was, fortunately, the result was relatively optimistic.

Sister Lu had already walked in front of Brother Lu at this time, slowly reached out and took out the chef's knife in Brother Lu's hand, and sighed, "It's hard for you tonight"

Brother Lu also knew what almost happened just now, it took this woman several years for him to let go of that nightmare, just now he almost went back to the past, he was a little scared when he thought of this, if that was the case, it would not be worth it to shoot tonight, Brother Lu smiled bitterly and said, "It's good to have you"

Sister Lu smiled faintly, this may be the value of her existence, only if she is there, this man can restrain herself, otherwise I am afraid that Lin Su and they will all be hurt, then it will really outweigh the losses.

After everyone over there comforted each other, they walked to Sister Lu and Brother Lu unhurriedly, and Qin Sheng took the initiative to speak, "Sister Lu, Brother Lu, thank you, this favor Qin Sheng remembers in his heart"

Qin Ran also said sincerely, "Thanks to Brother Lu tonight, if there is no Brother Lu to come to the rescue, we really don't know what will happen, saying too many thanks is not enough to express my mood at the moment."

Sister Lu shook her head lightly and said, "Don't talk about this yet, let's go in and talk about it, they should all be injured, don't be infected"

Everyone nodded silently, and then followed Brother Lu and Sister Lu back into the hermitage, and they didn't dare to leave here easily before the Qin family's bodyguards arrived.

Inside the hermitage, several women were chatting outside, Chang Baji, Qin Sheng and Brother Lu were pricking their wounds inside, and there should be everything in the hermitage, so it could be regarded as prepared.

Chang Baji and Brother Lu were both slightly injured, they only needed to wipe the wounds with alcohol and wrap them in bandages, Qin Sheng's several wounds were a bit serious, and they also needed to be disinfected, medicated, sutures, etc. However, there is no doctor here, so this task was handed over to Brother Lu, who had long been accustomed to being injured, and his skills were really not simple, not inferior to his cooking skills.

"I studied medicine in the UK before, and I worked in a hospital for a few years, so you can rest assured of my skills," Brother Lu, who had a relatively indifferent expression at the moment, said casually, even if he had not studied medicine, he had already graduated from school just by bandaging himself over the years.

Qin Sheng said in a low voice, "You can see that you are more professional than many ordinary doctors."

"Aren't you going to ask something?" Brother Lu said curiously, and he was not afraid of Chang Baji next to him, from the time Chang Baji walked into the hermitage, he knew that Chang Baji was a real master, after all, there are not a few masters who have fought over the years, and this observation and judgment are still there.

Qin Sheng didn't have that much gossip, he felt that something was not right when he first met Brother Lu, and then he thought that after all, he was a big man at the level of a chef, and he was naturally very different from most people, but now he thinks about it more than that.

"Everyone has a past, everyone has a story, everyone has a choice, these things belong to everyone, there is no need for everyone to know" Qin Sheng said truthfully, isn't he and Chang Baji the same.

Brother Lu didn't continue to dwell on this topic, and instead said, "Then you don't plan to ask me, why did you let that man go?"

Qin Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not qualified to ask, he was defeated in the hands of Brother Lu, how to deal with him is Brother Lu's freedom"

"You are very interesting" Brother Lu commented on Qin Shengdao, no longer looking at Qin Sheng with the first look, but treating Qin Sheng as a person of the same kind. After all, he had also witnessed the process of Qin Sheng and Niu Er fighting just now, and he also knew that Qin Sheng was not a simple man, but Qin Sheng was too distracted by taboos, and he suffered a loss because he was a little careless.

Qin Sheng said thoughtfully, "I wasn't what I am a few months ago, I should have lived a life similar to Brother Lu, wandering away from all kinds of enemies, and having experienced too many things, so I understand Brother Lu's choice."

Brother Lu continued to bandage Qin Sheng's wound and said, "I don't kill him, it's not that I don't dare to kill him, I've killed many people over the years, there are so-called good people and so-called bad people, and one more like this is nothing." To kill is nothing more than to leave Shanghai and choose a place again. But I don't want to go back to my old life, that kind of life is too painful, I think my current life is very good, there is wine, meat and women, after all, I am not only responsible for myself, but also for the woman I love. ”

Qin Sheng subconsciously guessed, "Brother Lu, does he have a demon?"

Inner demons seem to be two words mysterious and mysterious, but many people may have inner demons. Brother Lu's inner demon is to kill the ring, of course, it is not to kill chickens and fish, after all, he has been a cook for so many years, and he has long been used to this. Once he broke the killing ring, he moved his inner demons, which were more terrible than anything else, he could control a person, and then torture him in various ways.

"Hmm," Brother Lu nodded lightly, "Almost"

Qin Sheng can also understand why Brother Lu turned back to see Sister Lu at the last moment, maybe the only way to restrain the demons in his heart is Sister Lu.

Brother Lu didn't say much, because since Qin Sheng could ask this question, of course he knew what was going on.

After bandaging Qin Sheng's wounds, he handed the clothes that Sister Lu had already prepared to Qin Sheng, Brother Lu sighed and said, "Alas, you won't have a good mouth in the future."
